COUNTY CONVENTION.—The Republican Couuty Convention will assemble to day at 1 o'clock P. M., to make nominations of candidates for county officors.— Tho townships of tho county, and wards of the city city have selected their delegates, and will be fully represented. We hope, also, to see a large turn' out of citizens who aro not delegates. Thero has been considerable interest manifested by tho friends of tho different candidates, for Recorder, to securo tho nomination of their choice, but as tho time for making tho nomination approaches this feeling appears to bo giving way to a general desire to make a harmonious nomination at all hazards. There has been no candidates for County Commissioner publicly announced, but it is understood that several prominent citizens of our county and city have signified a willingness to take a nomination, for this office if tho convention sees fit to select them. The convention, we doubt not, will doits work well and present to our voters a good ticket, one which will satisfy our party and which will be olected next fall.
THE ELEVATED GOOSE.—The Syracuse Journal offurs an explanation of the popular plirase, "Everything is lovely and tho gooso hangs high," which appears satisfactory. The saying is derived from a pastimo in the back settlements of North Carolina callod "gander pulling." Saturday aftornoon is genorally dodicatod to tho sport, which comes off at some cross roads, centrc, or grocery store, and is attended by rustics from far and near, mounted on such nags as thoy can command. A gacdor is slipped of his feathers, made suitably oleaginous, especially about the head and neck, and suspended from the branch of a tree, at a proper higbt, boing tightly tied by tho feet, to prevent too easy a victory in the contest of wrenching him from the tree. The game is to ride furiously at the gallinacious bird, and seising it by tho greased head or neck, attempt to bear it away. This is literal "gander-pulling." Tho motley characterof tho assemblage, imbibing free potations of whisky, rollicking and "sloshing" around, starting an occasional fight, yelling, hooting, swearing and laughing, presents a scene of rude and boisterous merriment that cannot fail of being accounted "lovely" by the participants. As the crowd enter into the spirit of the occasion and the high-hanging goose eludes every attempt to wrest him from his pendant position, tho fun becomes fast and furious, and a spectator would naturally describe it by saying that "everything was lovely and tho goose hung high," a phrase which in time would be used in a figurative sense to denote success other festive demonstrations.

Soldier's Extra Bounty.
LETTER FROM'GBKERAL PAINE—IMPORTANT INFORMATION General Paine, of Wisconsin, of the Congressional Committee on Soldiers' Bounties, has published the following let
ter: MILWAUKEE, WIS., Aug. 10,1867. His Excellency, Lucius Fairchild, Governor of Wisconsin:
DEAR SIR—I have received numerous letters from soldiers of our State entitled to extra bounties under the act of July 28, 1866, which disclo&cs tho existence of serious dissatisfaction with the progress made in the settlement of these bounties, and anxiety to ascertain who is responsible for tho delay, whether it is unavoidable, and whether any remedy for the evil is to be expected. Finding it difficult to answer at length all inquiries on the subject, I take the liberty of addressing you a public letter for the information of all concerned.
At the commencement of the last ses. sion of Congress the House of Representatives adopted a resolution directing the Secretaries of the Treasury and of War to inform that body whether additional legislation was necessary to expedite the payment of tho extra bounties. The substance of the information conveyed by their replies, and by the verbal statements of the Second Auditor to members of the House, was that, in cases of claims made by living soldiers, the Paymaster General makes the payment upon certificates furnished on his application, by the Second Auditor, who has the custody of the muster out rolls, certifies tho fact in each caso that forty-five clerks were employed in the examination of the rolls and the preparation of tbeso certificates for the Paymaster General and for the Commissioner of Pensions. who settles certain claims for pensions upon like certificates but as many clerks were engaged in this work as could be safely and profitably employed that there liad already accumulated in the office of the Second Auditor ninety thousand unanswered applications of the Paymaster Gen'l for such information, and in the Paymaster General's office about one hundred and fifty thousand cases in which applications had notyot been forwarded to the Second Auditoi that during tho last three months the Second Auditor had answered the Paymaster General's applications at the rate of twelve thousand and ninety-three per month, and hoped eventually to be able to reach fifteen thousand per month that the settlement of all tbe bounties due under tho act could not lo effectod in lest than three years.
This information, if correct, showed that the dolay would be remediless, unless some plan could be devisod by which more clerks could bo assigned to this duty. A joint resolution, prepared by an officer of the Pay Department, was passed by the House of Representatives, providing that photographic copies of the muster out rolls should be taken for the use of tho Paymaster General, which would furnish him a fac sim\e of every roll, and so render it possible to increase the clerical force employed on extra bounly claims. We are assured by a photographer who had been many years in the Treasury Departmont. and had copied papers much larger than the largest of those rolls, that the provisions of the joint resolution were entirely practicable.— But the resolution was dofeated in the Senate.
It is said that tho Second Auditor had eighty thousand mustor-out rolls for the year 1865 alone that the expense of photographing would be very great that to many of these rolls papers of many sizes had boon attached so as to cover parts of the rolls, and render it impossible to photograph perfectly either the rolls or their appendages and that many of the entries wero in rod ink, which could not be cop' iod by tho photographic process. The photographer thought these difficulties could bo easily surmounted but tho joint resolution was postponed by the Senato on motion of Senator Wilson, who said that "when wo passed the bounty bill it was not supposed'the work could be com pleted under three or lour years."
On his motion the Senate disposed of the subject by adopting a resolution oall ing upon the Secretaries of the Treasury and of War for the same information which thoy had already furnished in obedience lo tho order of the House of Representatives. The information that the Second Auditor had in his office 80,000 muster-out rolls for the year 1865, and therefore probably 150,000 in all, led me, and I think many other representatives, to doubt whether it was certain that only forty-five clerks could be employed in their examination. I could not see why each clerk mu3t have 3,000 rolls, could not see why, with sufficient office room and labor properly systematized, 500 or even 1,000 clerks might not bo employed in the examination of 150,000 rolls. 1 did not rogret that the House resolution was defoated in the Senate, because I thought I saw a prospect of obtaining re^ lief by tho employment of an increased force upon the original rolls themselves. Tho impression was very extensive in the House, that, nfter all. there might be at tbe bottom of the trouble some undisclosed reason not originating in the necessi* ties of the caso, and at the close of the session a special committee was appointed to ascertain the cause of tho delay, and suggest a remedy, if possible. This committee has power to send for persons and papers, and it is determined to make a thorough and impartial investigation at the commencement of the next session, and ascertain, and, if possible, remove the obstacles to the speedy payment of these bounties. Until Congress shall act upon the Committee's report, I can see no prospect of relief for our soldiers who are waiting the additional bounties provided by law.
Very respectfully your obd't servant, HALBXRT E. PAINE.

STEINWAT PIANOS.—We have received the "Official Cataloguo," containing the dotailcd account of all the awards (recompenses) to the exhibitors at the Paris Exposition, as fixe I by tbe International Juries and affirmed by the Imperial Commission. In this official catalogue, dated July 1st, 1867, and printad since that date, we find, of the American exhibitors, Messrs. Steinway recorded first on the liit, and Messrs Chickering second.
In glancing over the almost interminable list ofthe new "chevaliers" of theLegion of Honor, from foreign countries, as published in the ''Moniteur" of July 2d, 1867—chevaliers created, according to that official organ of the French Empirq, by tbe Emperor Napoleon, upon "the recommendation of our Minister of Foreign Affairs''—we find, on comparing the nan.es of the "knighted" exhibitors with the official Catalogue of Awards, that quite a number of them only received second, third, and even fourth prizes. This, together with the fact that not the slightest mention is made in the official catalogue of tho Legion of Honor, cr recommendation thereof to ahy exhibitor, furnishes overwhelming proof that neither the International Juries nor the Imperial Commission recommended or even knew of the decorations obtained by a number of exhibitors upon their personal application to, and through the recommendation of, the French Minister of Foreign Affairs.
The triumph of Messrs. Steinway & Sons, and of their new system in Pianos, achieved in face of the most formidable and unscrupulous opposition by the only American and nearly all the European adberents of the old system in pianos, is most complete, and is highly gratifying to the musical public of America. No matter how Mngsrs. Chickering may insist and strive to make the public believe that the decoration of the Legion of Honor, obtained by Mr. F. Chickering personally, has a connection with the Awards at the Exposition, the fact is, distinctly and positively, that it had nothing to do with tho matter, and we have yet to see the slightest proof of their assertion.
By the unanimous verdict of the International Jury on musical instruments— the only and highest tribunal at the Paris Exposition—the incontrovertible fact is established before the world that, for American Pianos, Messrs. Steinway & Sons were awarded the first Gold Medal, and Messrs. Chickering the ttemd.—New York Weekly Review.
