stead OF 300 900, must content herself with
225,oo0. Further developments are being
made daily. San Francisco, which ha. bra <
ged OF her quarter million of people, has
only 10000. Ouisha. which has yaunted
its rapid growth into the twenty thousands.

10000, which comes within l0, 900 of what
it claimed.

practice on the part of the banks once 80

The action of the State and Congressional
Republican Conventions all over the country
is marked with cheering concord and har-
mony. Persons engaged in common cause
can only expect succe IS through mpromise
and conciiation, and in this spirit all these
gatherings have terminated. With spirited
contests, in some cases, for the coveted
honor, personal prefere noes have been sacri-
feed to generous feeling and ne cessity for
union, and a love for the cause, outweigh
ing all lesser considerations and the end
has been peace.

WHEREHE BELONGS Morrow 3. Lowry
tsays the Lebanon Courier is tn, candidate
of the Democrats for the State Senate in the
Erie district. This is the right man in the
right place. Morrow ''dovetails' with the
Democracy with fitness that is admirable.
Republican, would not tolerate his political
Vaccinations for self, and he as naturally
drops into the lap of Democracy as a rotten
apple falls to the bosom of Mother Earth.
He rode poor old John Browns reputation
as long as he could make it serve him, and
t Is IN harmony with the character of the
man to become the ally and representative
of Browns revilers.

On Monday of last week the Democracy
of Delaware met in Convention, at Dover,
to nominate candidates for Governor and
Congress. There, under the shadow Of the
whipping post and pillory, they solemnly re-
solved THAT this is white mans Govern
ment,' and that the negro is an inferior
race" Having done this, they adjourned,
and returned homie, unconscious that they
had written themselves down as political
fossils, and giten utterance to antedlluvian
PRINCIPLES.

REPUBLICAN DUIY.-The Harrisburg
Telegraph says Republicans should be up
and doing, for the fall canvass will involve
the highest interests of the State and nation.
1t is OF the first consequence to select the
ablest and hest men for nominations in all
cases, and leave no room for chances. The
party, strong in its record and its principles,
will be stronger by selecting none but its
best and most trustworthy men. It is no
time for divisions on mere local questions
We have to meet an enemy full of devices
and little tricks, and never slow to avail itself
OF any element of division, however small
in itself, to work mischief to the general
cause. The canvass will be an important
one IN every sense, and Republicans should
take early steps to organize thoroughly fer
victory. 1t is the full and complete vote that
tells the story.
