BOILING OVER The Washington
correspondent Of the Philadelphia
Mercury says; On Thursday last there
was little piece performed at the
White House in the presence Of u few
persons, but tho principal actors on
the occasion were General Ulysses s.
Grant, representing himself, and Col.
A. Fuller, Of Fayettc county, Penn.
sylvania, representing the honest Re
publicans of that section Of the State
The performance was commenced by
Fuller, who gave his Excellency to
understand that in the appointment
of collector in the Twenty. FIRST dis
trict ofyour State, ho had violated his
word in sending TO the Senate, for
that Office, the namo Of man that tho
Republicans ofthat Congressional Dis
trict were unanimously against. =
The President replied that he did this
at the request of Senator Scott, of
Pennsylvania. Fuller replied that
Senator Scott represented neither the
Republican party nor anybody else in
that State. lie gave the President to
understand that he would no longersuh-
nit to such treatment, and that hence
forth he would be against him and
his Administration, and that this act
ofduplicity his would causc hundreds
more 10 foresakc him Tho President
throughout tho performance sat MS
muto az n mouse, and the only evi.
dence that he still lived was the vol.
umes Of cigar smoke that issued from
his mouth.

CHEAP AND PLENTY, Tho editor OF
the Warren Ledger says "Sincc
Grant was elected President, almost
every town and hamlet has either 4
candidate for that office or the Vice
Presidency; but thcrc al o hardly any
who think themselves of so little i'm.
portanco as TO be snubbed with The
offer of the smaller Office. This was
not so once. There was time when
mono but truly representative men
were talked of for the high position Of
the head Of this government The
ones mentioned for the place stood out
prominently from tho masses, as &C..
casionally tall oaks or pines stand tie
monarchs OF the forests. But nowla
man who is not fitted for the Pro3i.
dency is considered n poor stick II
is even said that members of ohr
Town Council often hesitate aboht
voting for or against certain measures,
fearing their action may operate
against them in some future contest
for The Presidency. More than this /:
almost every member of our State
Legislature, even, has an eye or tho
Presidency, for he says "Isn't Grant
Presidenty And | know | am n
greater man than he" And in that
miserable body Of men, the most Of
them reason earnestly on that point.
The elevation of Grant was fatal to
greatness. What wonder then, that
evcry four corners has 4 candidate for
the Presidency, and every school dis.
trict q candidate for Congress, and
every township n candidate for Gov.

SENATORIAL CONFERENCE The pc
riod isapproaching when the Democ
racy of this Senatorial district will be
called upon to select u delegate to the
approaching State Convention. The
Clinton Democrat in referring to the
question, says; 3lao
In reference to the Senatorial Delegate, the
Chairman Of our County Committee nfonns us
that Cambria has instructed for Mr.. Philip tol-
Inns Of that county, and that Elk and Cicarhcld
have decided to support him. Clinton recon-
mendel A. J. Quigley Of North Point. The ac-
ton OF the other equities precludes Clinton get
ting tho Delegate, and settles the matter before
going into conference, making attendance upon
the conference q mere matter Of form. Whether
III. Quigicy viii feel disposed TO send conierecs
under this state Of things we arc not Informed,
yet we think II would be better for confcrees to
attend and look after tho countys interest in dis
trict matters, and TO say and do what may appear
host far that nnrrnsA after hsarins and seoing
what may be said aud done there. No advice has
been received by the Chairman as TO when or
where the Senatorial Confcrcace will meet.

McCLuRr ON GRANT In a reply

A. *. Mcclure says in reference to
the frauds at the late election in bis

A PUBLIC OUTRAGE.-The National
Treasury annually suffers loss Of at
least one hundred thousand dollars by
the raids of professional contestants
for seat in Congress TO which they
never were elected Mr.. Forney, of
the Philadelphia Press, who well un-
derstands this outrage, says:
The practice Of contesting Congressional seats
has grown into an abuse, but we doubt the wisdom
or justice of the bill Of Mr.. Sprcr, Of the Seven
icentb district Of this State, which provides that
no person unsuccessful In eon'"sl shall receive
any allowance, counsel fees, costs, &C. better
plan would be TO leave the granting Of the SOW
ance to the discretion Of the House and to take n
vote upon II in every instance. The other rule
would work against honest mon who made the
contest from conscientious motives, but who
might fail TO establish their case. Something
however, ought to be done to keep the miserable
wretches from the South from living In Washing
ton every winter at Government oxpensc, under
prctenco Of contesting the seats Of members.

LOOMING Up,-Cupt. William Nc
Clclland, now u Democratic Congress
man from tho Beaver, Green, Law
romeo and Washington district, is
coming to the surface as candidate
for Governor We arc personally nc.
quainted with the gentleman and
know him to be one Of the soundest
Democrats in tho State, and would
make popular candidate. NM
As an instance Of his popularity we
need but refer to the fact that the dis.
trict which he represents in Congress
elected J B. Donley, aRcpublican, to
the Forty FIRST Congress by majority
of ! l23 Grants majority in the dis
trict was 1858. Tho splendid record
and great popularity of Captain Nc
Clelland ovorcame not only this ma
jority, but he beat Donley by 772
votes in 1870, only two years later.
If he fails to receive tho nomination
for Governor, and Geary vctoes the
new apportionmcnt BILL he will thrash
some Radical most gloriousy in the
old district again.
