PlrTsHuRGH, May 1.-THE general
opinion among Republicans here Is that
the ticket framed yesterday is notably
strong, and will be triumphantly elected.
It meets the objections Of all the different
factions, aud leaves the forthcoming con
vention Of Independents without peg to
hang their grievances upon. 1t is noted as
rather remarkable fact in conuec'
ton with the ticket that there is
victory in It for every shadow Of political
feeling which found expression in the con
yentiOn. No one was defeated. Cameron
obtained the nomination OF Rawle, but
Browns friends secure Marshall. The In
dependents arc satisfied with Rawle and
pleased with Davies and Marshall, and the
latter name is soothing balm to the pre-
yiousiy injured feelings OF McManes. Il

| EDITORS CLARION; Your editorial upon
the subject of "a State Hospital for the In

appreciation Of every philanthropist. The

which appeals to the kindliest feelings of the

cases known to him, IS acquainted with two
brothers, one sixty and the other fifty-eieht
years of age, who were reared in easy cir

ages of the war, and since from various mis-
fortunes, have lost about all they possessed,
and to compass their cups Of misery ha We

ease for the last thsee years; neither hare

For Judge of This Judicial District
GEN. T. J. WHARTON.

EDITORS CLARION; a great deal of spec
ulation Is being INDUCED as 10 the course
the Governor will adopt relative to the APP
pointmeut Of Judicisl Officers.
He will find in this District aud through
out the State abundant material to select
from and as he is a lawyer of long standing
and especially familiar with the legal at
taiuments and character of most members OF
the bar of the State. it is hoped aud believ-
ed that he will exercise his judgment in
making his appointments and not be govern
ed entirely by petitioners etc. For this
District We would especially call his atten-
ton to Gen. T. j. Wharton.
In point of legal attainments and purity
of personal character Gen. Wharton stands
exceptionally high He is in fact too con-
spicuous to justify or require a resort in his
behalf to the common petition plan. His
appointment as Judge of this District would
give eminent satisfaction aud be calculated to
popularizs and strengthen the Governors
administration. CIYIs.
