PENNSYLVANIA Tn .CDs.--The testimony in
the NIcClure-Gray contcs.. ed-election case, in
Philadelphia, is claimed 10 rove that the
Democrats were swiudlcd out or - ->"fel1l re
cent State elections by frauds. The Fits
burg Post says: .. ...
I'VE believe that Asa Packer was honestly
elected Governor by Il larger majority than
that accorded to Governor Gealy. We be-
lievc that Philadelphia is to-day, and has
been for years, Democratic by from eight to
ten thousand majority, and we believe still
further that the thieves, FOUNDERS, and re.
peaters in that city have SO controlled cleo
tons there as to give just whit majority was
needed to carry the city and State"
This las been repeatedly charged in the
public press.

Mr.. CARPENTER, the United States senator
from Wisconsin, has manifested supcrser'
viceable zeal in behalf of GRANT, and stands
forth as patent partisan and caucus-wrong-
or-right man. Mr.. GREELEY, Of the Tribune,
gives him notice which concludes thus:
"a mind SO blunttd by pettifoggipg Iarti.
sanship is not fitted to discharge the duties of
a senator. And yet that is the condition to
which any one may be brought who COLI
siders himself the servant Of u faction rather
than of the people, aud who imagines that in

lator he has taken q brief to defend every act
OF an administration in power and every Ell.

insure proper depth Of water along It, and
10 make the very best use of 1t.
The question of what should be done with
the earth removed from that har is a difficult
ono. Much of 1t is very tine sand, that
would answer for building and paving, and q
good supply of it should be saved for that.
But the placing of the great bulk of it where

some safe place Of deposit. Tue earth taken

Firth of Clyde, a distance of some twenty
FIVE miles. In cleaning out river anything
that Is necessary to complete the work should
be done.
1t would not lie matter Of too small mo-
ment TO merit the notice Of the city lcgisla-
tors were they to consider the question of
diminishing the amount of dfdr's that is
washed into the river. Every street i'm
provement, every improvement of any sort.
adds something to the washing, and of
course to the ultimate labor and expenditure
of the city in cleaning out the river. An in
9epious mind might suggest some means for
at lcust the partial accomplishment of this
Object.

The public debt of the United States
is about thrce-fifths that of Great Bri-
ain, yet the two nations pay about the
same amount of interest. The receipts
of the United States the last fiscal year
were = $3.50, 100000 those Of Great
Britain in the same time, 1876, 705, 900.
We had, however surplus of SOL ,OO0,-
OOo-six times that of Great Britain
Our Government annually costs $780,
100000 beyond interest charges Great
Britain's costs $224,500,OOO. All the
pensions of the British Government
amount to five millions; our pension
account foots up thirty-for millions.
And still our Liberal Democratic
friends cry out "mismangement," "cor-
etc, when as the figures
show-and figures won't lie-thcre is
no government OH earth that is more
judiciously, or cheaply managed than
ours has been, under the rule of the
Republican party. They want to Re-
form it,by putting into power such men
as Tweed, Hoffman, Sweeney, Doo-
little, ct ia om,ee genus, but the people
will hardly see il in that light, and
Greeley & Brown will be elected to
stay at home, by q rousing majority.

readiness to support Democratic can-
didate for President; which circum-
stance led to the supposition in some
quarters that he had aspirations to Of
flee, love OF that absolute indepen-
dence which CANNOT now be maintained
in public office, and desire to pro-
mote the success of the cause rather
than to impede it have created in his
mind an unalterable resolve to remain
in private station.
A committee of one from each State

ry, Of Michigan, and others.
The report was adopted and Judge
Lyons conducted to the chair, where

On motion of Mr.. Beckman, of New
York, a committee Of one was appoint
ed by the delegation from each State,
to constitute the committee on rcsolu-
lions, to whom Chas. O'Conner's letter

named the members of the committee,
Iowa selecting DR.. w. F. Stanard, and
Illinois A. F. Atkinson. The commit
tee was requested to report at 8 o'clock
tomorrow morning, to which hour
the convention adjourned.
The letter of Chas O'Conner has
greatly strengthened him with the del
egat9s, who with John Quincy Adams
will probably be nominated.
The leaders of this movement regard
| the convention so far as great sue
cess. The convention is remarkable
| for having largo number Of old men
as delegates, and for the very small ey-
tent of whisky drinking as compared
with such conventions usually. Phren-
ologically and physiologically speak
| ing, it is not often that such body
gets together at a nominating convcn-
ton.

gained $4,000 subscribers, half of
which number at least have discarded
the Tribune and taken the Times in

1t was shrcwd dodge to make use
