The Hitler delegates and his supporters generally gathered in great numbers at Worcester, and at five o'clock in the morning took possession of the hall in which, the Convention was called to meet.

Then the dulogatcs organized the convention and nominated old Ben by acclamation as the Democratic candidate for Governor, aim completed the ticket by nomina tions for tbe other offices to be filled A platform was adopted denomcirjg the Presidential fraud and demanding Hayes' impeachment should his connec tion with the crime be made clear; but it is mainly devoted to questions of State reform. How many delegates partici pated in the convention is not stated but it is likely considerable more than a majority. This nomination is one of the surprises of this eventful political year. and if Butler has the strength he is represented to have with the people of be will be elected, although it is probable there will be strong combinations against him.

J.ordly and aristocratic Boston would as soon see Dennis Kearney Governor as the bold Bm.ER. His election would carry terrop to the rings and commissions that have, been having their own way in Massachusetts for half a century. The members of tbe Democratic State Committee opposed Buti.er have called a convention to meet at Boston next week. The row at Worcester was precipitated by their action in ruling out delegates because they were Butlek men and indorsing lists of names never voted for.

at A 4 refill atle IMnplav pari meniM. Special tJorrespondence of Pittsburgh Post. Beavf.ii, September 17, 1878. The Twenty-fifth Annual Exhibition of the Braver County Agricultural Society opened to-day under very favorable circumstances. The first day is usually occupied in bring ing in the exhibits and properly arranging the j-ame, so that it is difficult to do justice to the whole in a description ot the whole on the first day.

The attendance has been very good for a "first day." THE EXHIBITION OK STOCK is nearly complete, and t-peaks well for our stock breeders. In the stalls can be seen mime very fine Alderney cows and bulls, beside any amount of ordinary srck. One fine large, noble mack Jersey Bull at tracts great attention. The assortment of sheep is as yet not very large. FANCY II ARN ESS Like many others, I was considerably struck by a set of double, gold-mounted harness, manufactured by our Beaver friend, Andrew McDonald.

Mr. McDonald tells me that he made this set of harness forexhibition, and that be would not make a set like them for less than one thousand dollars. The same gentleman al-o has a fine assortment of saddles, bridles anil rches. He says he intends faking this fine harness to the State Fair at Erie. Geo.

Fried rich of New Brightou, has some very g'd harness work on exhibition. Logan Strowbridge's New Brighton novelty work showed well, and seems to km nearly complete. The Olive Sr-ove Works of Roehesu-r, and W. S. Campbell's Bridewatr stove foundry are setting np their oolieTioii of good stoves.

Hal! of B-aver Falls, has two very fine pieces of workmanship in buggies, as has alio the firm of Wisener, Buigbam Scott of New Hrigbton. Mr. Wisener is the lemoeratic candidate for Sheriff. ART. McLean of New Brighton, exhibits choice photographic work.

He had a large frame containing some exceedingly fine peri mens, both of natural beauty and ar tistic taste. I am tempted to mention some the pretty faces, but perhaps it would be more graceful to mention them retpectively as the very obliging poHtmistrens of Beaver. former iustructress at the College, and several young students who attended the Female College last year. oss of New Brighton, has some beaut i- fnl of pearl photograph, and what he cails the chrome photographs. In the way of original art tbe soci-ty is well aud ably repr sen tea by Samuel w.

Gray of Beaver Falls, aud George Best of New Brighton. Mr, Gray makes a specialty of poi trait paintings, though be bad some beautiful landscapes here last year. This voung maa is an honor to himelf and friends, and is iu the strictest sense a self-made man, having worked hard during his life to enable him tostuuv bis chosen pro fession, and I take this occasion to pay him the cotiipiiuaeut he has fairly won. His works speak volumes lor themselves, ana are the portraits ot persons wno nearly everybody who comes here will reexgniza. He has on exhibition in the art gallery tbe portraits of James R.

1 'at tendon, Mrs. Kichie ana Harry Reeves ot leaver fans; John Beutd, who was fatally burned at the Freedom Oil Works seme time ago; Mr Moor bead of Bridgewater, deceased, and Colonel James Robinson, S. N. Mr. Best's exhibition is entirely of landscapes.

and represents some familiar lin-ai scenes. The geiitleman is a modest, careful worker, and bids fair to come into particular notice. Mips Carrie Woodruff, the deserving young artist of Beaver, has nothing here thisyear. lingo Andriessen, the Beaver druggist-, has few specimens of his taxidermical art close to tbe children's department.

Your correspondent confesses the ex- tremest ignorance of this discretionary business and I didn't like to inquire.

Tbe management has secured the Liverpool braes band to discourse sweet music to the souls of Beavor county mortality. In a day or so the grounds will be dotted with the tents of the side shows, and the sweat rags and wheel of fortune fellows, who always find plenty of foolish fellows to fool, will be thick as bees. Already the pea-nut venders and the candy, taffy and lemonade stands are in full blast.

This is a profitable field for the swarms of candidates. This is where they get in their solid work and make pretty speeches to their prospective constituents I see on the ground Capt. Harry M.

THE ANII-srK IAt.IST BILL. Bkm.in. Septcmlter 17 The first day's debate in the Reichstag on the Anti-Socialist bill was somewhat disappointing to the eager audience who expected a heated controversy and dramatic scenes. Tbe proceedings were -for the moht part decorous and even dull. Tbe chief sensation was Rebel's effective speech.

He entertained theLilterals and the Conservatives by making fresh disclosures about the r' lions of the Government with the leaders four years ago. Count von Kuten-lerg, Minister of the Interior, made an unhappy attempt to break the force of these rvd ttiooH. In the Reichstag to-day. Prince Bismarck supported the Anti -Socialist bill in an energetic speech. He said Socialism was a common dauger, avowedly striving to ef-f.

ct a violent revolution in the order of society. denied seriatim the allegations made by Herr Rebel of the former connection between the Government and Socialist, leader. He denied having relations with Lasalle or Freteeb. He said he hal con-versed with IJ9Hallef and found him to be not a Republican but a Monarchist. He challenged Herr Fretach to apscify a allcg(-L be (bismarck reoeiveI information from him.

Binmarck jminted out tbe fact that S-ciahst newppapers celebrated the murder of the R'lsnian G-neral Jlezertzaw as an act of justice. He said that society was thus warned aeainst the aasHins and Nobeling's gun. It was intolerable to live under the tyranny of such a gang of bandits. He appealed to the Reichstag to support the Government in protecting the Kmiror and his subj'U. Some ad- dinonai victims might fall on the side of ord-r.

After Mayor went to the hall he wrote to the Committee as follows: "Mechanics Hall was taken possession this morning between four and six o'clock by some disorderly persons, who broke dnwn the entrances thereto, and at 10:45 o'clock, are now in posesion of said hsll. I demanded that said, persons leave said hall, at the request of the State Central Committee, which they refuse to do, I am of the opinion that said hall cannot be cleared except by violence and perhaps bloodshed.
