So Gen. JOSEPH MARKLE is the Wing candidate
for Governor of Pennsylvania, and though we
would have personally preferred Gen. IRWIN, who
is one of the ablest and somdcst men IN the state
we believe the right man has been selected. Gen.
Markle was Captain under Gen. HARRISON IN
his Indian and British Campaigns and dlstm-
guished himself by gallantfy and good conduct IN
every way. He has for years been nearly buried
alive under the heavy Loco-Foco majority III
Wcstmoreland, but we are confident he will dig
out now. He has great personal worth and pop
ularlty.


The Loco Convention was still fighting at
our last advces but it was settled that Henry A.
Mulenberge of Berks, defeated by Ritner IN the
triangular contest of 1855 will be nominated.
He must be beaten.


SIMEON GuLPoRD of Northumberland, has been
nominated for Canal Commissioner by the Wings
and WILLIAM B. REED of Philadelphia and JOHN
SrRoAm OF Lancaster for State Delegates to the
Baltimore Convention.


The Whig Convention was exactly lull-every
District and County having full Delegation
present; the Locos were full, and some over,
having double Delegations from several Districts.
They had not got through with settling these
troubles at the last advices, but several test votes
had been taken, which assured the nomination Of
Muhlenberg. Just as we would have it.


OHIo.-The two Houses of the Legislature
have compromised so as to elect "a State Trea-
surer and Judges in place of those whose terms
have already expired, leaving the Secretary Of
