Q ConkIinx's Hard Heart.

81 NNw YORK, July THE excitement at
ex-senator Conkling'c unfeeling course in
failing to express sympathy with the
president IS raising an increasing storm
Of indignation, and it IS believed his only
safety from personal violence is to re-
main in his room. He does not appear,
in the streets at all, and since Gen .ral
,Arthur's departure for Chicago he has
been seen but once or twice. He takes
his meals in his room and has sent out a,
number of letter and telegrams. Private
detectives are stationed at toe Fifth
avenue hotel. and the strictest watch is
kept for any signs of violence, There is
no question but that Conklinx is in fear
Of his life. He complains bitterly of the
press and the public but has not bee2
heard to express single word of SYM
pathy With the president or Mrs. Gar
field. I (yond the general remark that
the country can withstand the dangers
that are prefgured in the assassa ton, he
has nothing to say Of the deed itself.i He

name.
Centre county having already add
ed these three distinguished names to
the roll Of Pennsylvania Governors,
it is scarcely to be expected that the
nomination of Gen. Beaver will excite
any unusual or undue transports OF
joy or popular enthusiasm on the part
Of our people. II is nevertheless .
pleasure to know that we still have
among us the material from which
Governors can be made. Gen. Beaver
is an excellent citizen. stands high so.
cially and professionally, has good
military record, and possesses consid-
erable force of character. Beyond
these qualities, his best friends will
not claim for him the possession Of
any extraordinary fitness for the Office
of Governor over and above that pos
sessed by a number of other citizens
even of our own county.
We are tempted in this connection
to say that should our townsman re.
ceive the honor Of the Republican
nomination, rs now seems TO be cou.
ceded, the Democratic convention
might also cast a wandering eye to
our town for a candidate. We venture
to say that one can be found who will
be in every respect the peer Of Gen
Beaver. The Hon. G. 7. Alexander
might be named as one, or Adam Hoy,
Esq., as another. Both are gentlemen
Of the highest personal character both
are active and influential Democrats /;
both are able aud prominent members
Of the BeIlefonte bar, and 10 the re.

equal of the proposed Republican
nominee. II il is to be Beaver on the
Republican side, let Us claim I'll the

Democratic friends to give us Alexan-

The best thing, remarks the Harris
burg Patriot, in President Arthur's
first message is what was not in it. Its
freedom from all sectional allusions
was an agreeable surprise to the sensi.
ble people of the country. Even Gar
field could not help iBdulging in them
in his inaugural. But Arthur has
proved himself too wise and polite TO
mar his official message with the usual
sectional controversy. 1t must not be
lightly assumed, however, that the re-
publican party is becoming divested
Of lie narrow sectional hatTeds and
animosilies because the temporary
head of the party chooses TO ignore
them in his official communications TO
congress. When the time comes
around the old sectional cries will re-
sound throughout the northern land,
and the banner Of the bloody shirt will
be again lifted. Clerk Mcpherson
will bring out revised editions of bis
old campaign documents ON rebel
claims and rebel pensions, and the
party organs will be filed with new
versions Of rebel outrages. Sectional.
ism is the animating spirit of the Re-
publican party. When The party
ceases to be sectional it will cease to
exist.
