The conduct Of Col. X. X. Townes
at the Democratic Senatorial convention
Tuesday, was admirable. A doub. having
been raised as to his eligibility, rather
than cucumber his friends with his de.
fence, he declined to accept the nomina-
ton after 1t had been rendered to him BY
unanimous vote. The Colonel has
gained the friendship Of all his party
friends by this disinterested conduc,-by
refusing to take what he wanted and could
have obtained, the motive of his refusal
being to promote harmony in the Liberal
party and to not embarass it by any side
issues. The Colonel is a young man. and
the future will prove TO him that hi. con
duct on Tuesday has added to his strea,,h

The candidate Of the Liberal-Demo-
cratic party Of the Fiftie,h District for
State senator IL Jesse Ware, of Union
county.
The nomination sought Mr.. Ware. He
was averse to accepting II, and for long
time resisted the unanimous and persistent
demand of the delegates. He is not pol
itician. Has never been an ofilce-seeker---
has never, we believe, held an office Of any
kind but he has always been an inter-
ested observer Of public affairs and is we'll
posted on the political questions Of the
day. His strong claim to the votes Of the
people Of this district, lies in the fact that
he is particularly we'll posted in State mat
ters, and is a scrupulous advocate of econ
omy as we'll as honesty in the administra-
ticn Of the peoples affairs, aud will not,
a. Senator, be likely to run away after
the wild schemes of political theorists.
We regard him as In every way well
qualified for the Senatorship; and, as his
election is fixed fact, we may congratu-
late the people on the fac. that their inter-
ests will be carefully guarded in Mr..
Wares hands.

have called the attention of the represen-

THE editor of the Jolmstown TrfJetne, in

fact that he has supreme and reckless
contempt for truth and fair dealing. What
he permits an imaginary correspondent TO
say about what transpircd at the recent
meeting of the Democrats Executive Cou;l-
ty Committee in this place, is basely and
meanly false, and as utterly destitute of the
least approach towards the truth as the
highest flight of mendacity ever attempted

and supreme contempt at our hands. If

derestiInates the good sense and intelligence

THE Pittsburg Chronicle which sup
ports GRANT, thus keenly and shrcwdly
analyses the hypocritical appeals which
are made by the orators and press Of its
party:
People not very intimately identified with
politics cannot fail to be amused at the
self receptions to which very worthy per
sons yield. For instance, ii does seem a
little ludicrouS to hear republicans exprcss-
ing such great esteem for Mr. Blanton
Duncan and his confrereS. They are the
sincere democrats; they are men of princi-
pies and convictions these Greeley fellows
are mere political hucksters. Now if there
had been a straight democratic nomination
at Baltimore, the cry would have been.
"These democratic Bourbons can never
learn. 1t is the old Zoe we have to meet.
The party whom we have defeated again
and again has the impertinence to Haunt
Its stale creed once more in the face of the
American people," For years the cry has
been, The democracy are incapable of re-
form, they ought to die But when they
sink their peculiar tenets and adopt a re-
publican platform and nominate republi-
can candidate, the cry is ''Oh we have no
respect for you fellows, you are not the
genuine time honored democrats-those
nne, brave fellows we have always liked
SO much. Blanton Duncan and his set are

that set. We fairly loved them during the

THE movement to nominate a straight
ont Democratic candidate for President at
Louisville, on the Sd of September, next
tuesday, has met with a sudden, if not
fatal, rcpulse. In the Judgment of the
mon who were guiding and controlling it,
CHARLES O'CoNoR, the eminent and dis
tinguished lawyer of New York city, was
the coming man. Mr.. O'CoNoR, however.
has disappointed all their hopes ard has
thrown confusion and dismay into the
radical camp, as will be seen from an arti-
Gle in another part OF our paper. He has
said TO gentleman who called on him.
that II the Democratic and Liberal Repub-
ican conventions of New York. which will
meet at Syracuse next Wednesday. will
nominate him for Governor of that State
he will accept. AS JouN f. HARTR,Nr,r

opinion is, that no Democrat of any stand
ing in his party viii consent to be vol
untary sacrifice on the altar of the borus
Louisville convention, and that the mis-
guided Democrats who win attend it will
be forced to nominate BIANToN DUNCAN
himself, the man who originated it and
under whose auspices It viii be held. This

AT the Democratic Congressional Con
ference which met at Altoona last Monday.
Hon. r. MILTON SPEER was unanimously
renominated as the Democratic candidate
for Congress from this district. The pro
ceedings Of the Conference will be found in
our local department. Of course this NOM
ination was a foregone conclusion and at
this time it is entirely unnecessary for us
to say anything in regard to 3fr. SPEER' 5
ability and political integrity.
As we write this brief article (Wednes-
day the Radical Congressional Conference
is in session at Altoona. OF course we will
be able TO announce the name of the gen
tleman who is to be defeated by r. MILTON
SPERR before our paper goes to press.
When the two candidates are in the field
and the issue is fairly made up, then we
propose honorably but earnestly and enthu-
siastically to discuss their relative claims
to the sulfrages of the voters Of Cambria
