Confessional.

1t will be observed by the following that
J. w. Browne, Esq, of Earlyille, will be "a
candidate before the democratic congress
slonal convention, to meet at Joliet, on the
18th inst, for nomination for congres. Mr..
Browne has been life long democrat, is an
able lawyer and an honest man. During the
late civil war, sitting on a store box in Earl.
vile, one day he made the rash prediction
that greenbacks, which were then worth 95c,s
on the dollar Git was soon after their first is
suc,) would, before the war was over. be
worth less thar 75cts. on the dollar. For this
Unreasonable utterance," Mr.. Browne was ar.
rested and confined several months at Camp
Douglas; but rs his prediction soon proved
true, and there really was nothing charged
against him, he was discharged without trial
though he earnestly demanded to be tried by
even drumhead court martial. Should Mr.
Browne be nominated at Joliet, he will doubt
less be denounced as great copperhead and
rebel sympathlser during the war, but the
above is all the foundation there is for the
charge.
Editors Free 7rader: Having received
numerous letters before and since our county
convention on the 10th, requesting me to be.
come candidate for congress from the 9th
congressional district, avail myself of this
opportunity to say that will be candidate
before the coming congressional convention.
and If my friends succeed in nominating me,
will enCeavOr To he elected
Very truly,

The New York Democratic State convention
met at Rochester on Monday. The proceed
ings have been closely watched by the whole
nation to see what its action would be in ret
erence to the misconduct Of the Tammany lea
ders in New York city. In republican con,
vention, of course, the country expects the re.
venue thieves to take the leading part and
control the proceedings, as collector Murphy,
one of the head thieves in the Tammany ring.
did the late republican convention at Syracuse;
but democratic convention is expected to
denaunce thieves of every grade, no matter
what their social Ca official position, or to
what party they belong So, much was ex-
pected of the democracy of New York, and
the expectations of the country are not disap.
pointed. Two delegations appeared at
Rochester from New York city, one represent.
ing Tammany directly and the other the So
called reform democracy" of the city. It
was found, however, that the Tammanyites in
reality controlled both delegations, and the
convention thereupon kicked both out. 1t
told the democracy of New York city to "a
home and purge themselves of the thieves and
come with clean hands before they could ex-
pect to exert their usual influence IN the State
convention Of the party.
This was in reality what the convention
did, though it was done in gentler terms.
Finding the feeling of the county SO strong
against them, the Tammany ring gracefully
surrendered, and consented to go home on
condition that, instead OF being expelled, the
convention should simply omit New York
city in calling over the delegations by coun-
tles and districts, and this the convention con-
sented to do. In the resolutions of the con-
vention, however, the frauds in New York
city are directly and pointedly denounced,
and the 9Th resolution, which declares the
readiness Of the party to purge itself of the
Tammany thieves, also as pointedly demands
that the federal government shall cleanse
itself of the profllgacies of the custom house
and internal revenue boards, In the army and
navy, and the carpet-bag robbers of the
southern states.
Having thus shaken off and kicked out all
its thievish associations, the democracy of
New York 60 before the people with clean
hands with full assurance of a splendid vic
tory in November at the polls.

The devilishness Of the Tammany thieves in
New York is showing itself In forcible light in
their persistence in holding on to their official
positions, while the injunction served upon them
deprives them Of the power to carry on the city
government. The result IL inevitable that all
persons in the employ Of the city government,
involving so OO0 )nborers, with lamp lighters,
&c, must be discharged, and Tweed's hope il,
by compelling this discharge Of laborers to get up
such mob violence as will compel the removal Of
the injunctons laid upon himself and his con.
Tolerate thieves. l: is barely possible, however,
that the mob may take another direction, and
give Tweed the alternative Of resigning or being
torn in pieces. The present prospect il, that N.
York city will 10 without gas and water next
