Craig; Indiana, r. A. Paul, II. M.
Tomb and Chester Davis Jefferson,
G. M. Brewer; Forest, Hon. Andrew
Cook and Nick Thompson. On
motion Rulof Rulofson, j. M. Hunter,
and II. M. Tomb were appointed a
committee on resolutions. On motion
Hon. Harry White, Of Indiana county,
was unanimously nominated for Con-
gress.
The following resolutions were unan.
imously adopted
Resolved, That we, the Conferees of
the Twenty.ffth Congressional District
here assembled, take pleasure in the
duty assigned to US, aud do unani-
mously nominate and present Gen.
Harry White, Of Indiana county, as
the Republican candidate for Congress.
ResoIvei, That it is with more than
ordinary satisfaction that we present
TO the voters of this district Gen.
White, as our nominee for Congress,
for the following reasons, viz:
First, That as citizen he has the
confidence and esteem Of those who
are best acquainted with him.
Second, That as a soldier he served
his country faithfully in its hour of
peril.
Third, That as a legislator he made
his mark, was Unidentified in much leg
islation in which his constituents we're
the benefactors, and was an acknowl-
edged leader in the House as well as
in the State Senate.
Fourth, Viewing the steadfastness
with which he combatted in the Ma.
tional Congress those whose sole aim
was and is to overthrow this grand
and noble Union of ours, we proudly
present him to the citizens of the
Tweuty-fifth Congressional district for
reelection G. NJ. BREWER,
Secretary.

called for" If that is the case it is
the first convention of the kind we
have ever heard of where such express.
ion was not called for, and the reason
is obvious; they probably knew n
motion to that effect would not carry.
Further on the paper dispenses the
following taffy to Mr.. RRthburn; "Mr.
Rathburn was not candidate for the
position, did not seek or desire it, but
we have this much to say Of him, that
there is probably the material in him
to make one of the best judges in the
district" This does not correspond
very well with the opinion of one of
the Forest conferees, who was not at
all backward in saying that Rathburn
was in no way fit for the position, and
had the Greenbackers nominated him
they would have been the laughing
stock of the entire district.
There is another very significant
fact to be taken into consideration with
regard to the Greenback conference,
and that is that one Of the conSerees,
from this county, a former Republican,
stayed at home, for some reason or
other, and Democratic Greenbacke er
was substituted in his place. We
mention this to show which way the
feelings of the delegation from this
county would naturally tend next to
their own party give hem Democratic
ideas, "and tariff for revenue only"
This fusion business with Democrats
is getting just a little too thick for
many of the more consistent Green.
hackers of Forest county, and they
will not be backward about showing
it at the polls in November.

GEN. HARRY WHITE,

MosGRovE has defined his position
at last He is favor of being elected
to Congress if he can get votes enough.
He believes from row until after the
election, just as evory man does who
will give him vote. Two years ago
he was in for the Greenbackers first,
last and all the time, but now he is in
for the Democrats little, too; and
he wouldn't object to being just a little
bit in for the Republicans if necessary
in order to get few votes from that
quarter. He's the most accommoda-
ting candidate we've ever seen. He's
a splendid talker, too; he can talk
two hours at a stretch and never say
a word.

SPEAKING of the Judicial question
of this district, the Commonwealth
thinks that inasmuch as we got all
our information from one of the Con-
ierees concerning their meeting at
Irvheton, our comments were unbe.
coming. This is not the case. Mr..
DiHgman did give us scanty idea of
what was done, but the authority upon
which we gave our readers the facts
was from an entirely different source,
and upon which we could rely for
accuracy. The Commonwealth also
denies that the conferees who had
voted for Rathburn refused to make
the nomination Of Mr. Brown unani'

Takes US to Task.

Our time. honored old friend 7. J.
PayGe, of Tylersburg, takes exceptions
to an item which appeared in our
paper some time ago, under the head
of Scattering Notes." and wants to
know the chaps name who penned it.
This we have not the right to give, and
it would be breach of trust on our
part to comply with Mr.. Payne's
request. But let us dissect the item
and see what there is in it SO terribly
nauseating to our good Democratic
friend. The item referred to is as
follows >~aN
Can any Democrat in the county
tell aOhy he is a Democrat? Does any
body know the distinctive principles
of the Democratic party? What are
the great moral questions they are
working forY How many voters know
achy they vote as they do? Now think
"CaD any Democrat tell why he is
Democrat ?" We see nothing wrong
in this conundrum. fla voter can't
tell why he votes the Democratic,
Republican or Greenback ticket he
ought to be ashamed of himself and
ought not to have the cheek to offer
his ballot. "Does anybody know the
distinctive principles of the Demo
cratic party" That is a question
which has set many great mind to
thinking, and we don't think any have
ever been able to fathom the mystery.
If the Democratic party have any
distinctive principles" We readily
confess that we have never been able
to discover them. "What are the
great moral questions they are work.
ing for?" That's another muted ques-
ton, and we "give it up" We don't
think it is fair for our correspondents
to ask such hard questions, and We
won't allow it any more either. "How
many voters know why they vote a;
they do ?" This may be meant fol
the Democratic party; it may tht
Republican, and it may go so far as tC
mean tho Greenback party, but nC
one should object to the question
Every voter should be able to give
his reasons for voting as be does. II,
should read and reflect, and vote q
his conscience dictates. "Now think I
That's boss suggestion. Let ever,
voter set himself to thinking between
now and the election, and our wor,
for it the Republican ticket will b
elected from top to bottom by a
overwhelming majority.
We have now gone through tn
item and can see no reason why ou
good friend and patron should take U
to task for allowing it to appear in ou
columns. We hope he will see an
read it in a different light now.

How WELLINGTON WAS ONCE DELUDED IN
MILITARY DIsc1PLINE-"I got famously ta-
ken in on that OCCASION" said the Duke of
Wellington, once. "The troops had taken to
plundering a good deal. 1t was necessary to
stop it, and I issued an order announcing
that the first man taken in the act should
be hanged upon the spot. One day, just as
we were sitting down to dinner, three men
were brought to the door of the tent by the
provost. The case against them was clear,
and 1 had nothing for it but to order that
they should be taken away and hanged in
some place where they might Le seen by
the whole column in its march next day. I
had good many guests with me on that oc-
casion, and among the rest, l think, Lord
Nugent. They seemed dreadfully shocked
and could not eat their dinner. Il didn't like
it myself, but as I told them, I had no time
to indulge my feelings; must do my duty.
Well, the dinner went off rather grsvely;
and next morning, sure enough three men in
uniform were seen hanging from the branches
of a tree close to the high road. 1t was a
terrible example and produced the desired
effect there was no more plundering.-
Some months afterwards, 1 learned that one
of my staff took counsel with DR.. Hume, and
as three men had just died in the hospital
they hung them up and let the three culprits
return to their regiments" weren't you
very angry, Dukes "Well, Isuppose was
at first but as I had no wish to take the
poor fellows lives and only wanted the exam.
pie, and as the example had the desired effect,
my anger soon died out, and I confess to you
that l am very glad now that the three lives
were spared"

| homes, people and country. Joy hlled every
heart; enthusiasm swelled every bosom; while
from hilltop and valley, from woodland and
town, rolled the songs of victory in strains
as exultant as those
"That fioated over the waves
From Miriam's timbrel and from Moses tongue"
Across the rolling deep shone the light of
that morning star. All Europe was enthused
with the glory of its rising and the effulgence
of its beams. France caught the spirit Of
liberty, and her Marseilles Of freedom filled
hovel and palace hall, temple and camp, un.
til the throne of the Bourbons, and royalty,
crownless and spendorless, wept over its ruins
But the Republicanism of France was the
despotism of liberty; and because of want
of moral preparation for the liberty for
which she struggled, France was soon remit
ted to revolution and to blood. Venice,
whose liberties had expired under the con.
quering march of Napoleon, heard the signal
notes of freedom and struck for independence.
The spirit that resisted the aggression of The
Ottoman, revived in the bosoms of her sons,
and the patriotic fires that once burned upon
Venetian affairs were rekindled in the land
of Dondalo and Carmagnolo. But her tri.
colored flag, which was unfurled in the place
St. Mark, amid the exultant shout of "Hon-
or to America long live our sister Republic"
was soon lowered, and with her moral ener-
gies decayed. her nationality was lost in the
revolutions that convulsed Europe On this
continent the republic of Chilli, Buenos Ayres,
Colombia and Mexico, rose, Aourished and
fell. Ignorant of the blessings of freedom,
not sufficiently enlightened to appreciate
good government, ignoring the principles of
morality and religion, national sin brought
about national dissolution, and of these rspub-
