TO OVB PATRONS
Ve have had little or nothing to say
ahouteurselyes, since the change in the
4tatigement of the paper—partly be-
Mta we preferred to have the improve
ments we may introduce ~from time 'to
tithe Speak for themselves, and partly be
cause of the difficulties-under which we
have been laboring, liy reason of --- th*
bitinpered condition of our office. We
hea'expicted long ere this to be in our
new office, - but the work has been inn
expeetedlyittelayed. The new building
is,'however, now fairly under way, and
in a few days we expect to be able to
.move into it, when we hope to be able to
move on 'more comfortably. In the mean
time we have made such improvements
in the paper, as we found practicable,
and hope from time to time to make still
more mOked (ves t It is our purpose to
spare neither labor nor expense to , make
the "Star and Sentinel" one of the 'best
journals in the State, and every way
worthy of the generous patronage it al
ready enjoys. We have already been at
heavy expense in the erection of a new
office, and the purchase ci new type, pa
per, &c. A number of subscribers have
manifested their appreciation of our ef
forts, by promptly pre-paying their sub
sefiptions, and we should be pleaseO to
acknowledge similar compliments from
all our subscribers. We have to pay cash
for all the type, labor, paper, and mate
rials necessary to the issue of the paper
from week to week, and the - prompt pay
ment of their subscriptions by subscri
bers, will elute us to meet these liabili
ties 'without embarrassmenti, and put it
in our power to make additional improve
ments. Each mail subscriber can ascer
tain the state of his account, Ely examin
ing the printed label on his paper,
which indicates the date to which his
subscription is paid.
We desire to express our acknowledge
ment to our friends in different parts of
the county, who have activeli , interested
themselves in extending the circulation
of the paper, and trust they will contin
ua their good offices. 4 Our Subcriptiot .
is allegdy larger by one half, than wag,
ever attained by any paper in the county,.
A little effort upon the part of each' of
oar present at r ibscribers, would largely in
erelefe the list, and to that extent promote
the 'circulation of sound political princi
ples, and increase our faculties for pub
lishing a profitable and acceptable paper.
DOYLESTOWN, Pa., boasts of a hebdom
tidal, called the " Democrat." It is edited
by one DAVlS—Colonel W.H.finm HEN..
fly DAVIS—who, to his credit be it spo
ken, earned his military title by honora
ble service in the Union army. But by
instinct and education he wes a Latter-
Day Democrat; hence, after quitting the
field, he clung to his old political associa
tions, and, prompted byan ambition that
has proved fatal to many an aspirant,
was flattered into the acceptance of the
Democratic nomination for Auditor Gen
eral, in 1805, and badly beaten by Gen
erral HARTIC 4 O-NFT. Whether this was
the immediate cause of unsettling the
serenity of DAVIS' existence, we do not
undertake to assert; but certain is it that
ever since then he has displayed no little
ill-temper through the medium of his
paper. Whatever fails to run parallel
with his view's is reprehensible. Ever
on the alert, he discovers error and dan
ger which others fail to discern, entitling
him to a place in the categoryuf philoso
phers who
"Havd lights when others' eyes are
As pigs are said to see the wind."
"Radicals" generally are an abomination
in his sight; bDt THADDEUS STEVENS is
decidedly execrable. To W. H. D. the
"great Commoner" is a frightful appari
tion, from whose "diabolical frame of
mind,' as he styles it, are to spring more
evils than sprang from Pandora's box, to
~afflict:the human, race, or rather, that
portion of it which reside in the lately
rebellious States. "To gratify the malice
of a devilish old man," tragically ex
claims ,DAVIS, "our Government has al
ready been guilty of such acts since the
war brbke out as to disgrace it with the
rest of the world, without resorting to
coNPlscATioN !" That seems the most
fiendish of all the propositions yet sub
mitted. "To despoil the South of -the
little property she has left," DAVIS sol
emnly avers is Mr. STEVENS' settled pur
pose and to his inventive fancy is pro
, bably presented the terrible spectacle of
all the worldly effects, real, personal and
mixed, of' his Southern friends, being
swallowed by the insatiable monster
which his distempered brain has created.
The deep concern which W. H. D. man
ifests in this respect, leaves little room to
doubt that he would Shed any number of
sympathetic tears, and go into "sackcloth
and ashes" for any requisite period, if by
so doing he could avert the fate that to
him appears so imidnent. ' The case of
WILLIAM HENRY himself we regard as
really deplorable, and we have half a
mind to importune our old friend STE
VENS to desist front' the wayward course
he is pursuing in order to restore DAVIS
to a tolerable state t k:it existence.
But, seriously-4s it not surprising
' With what persietncy the Democratic
press defame Mc EtrevErzs and denounce
every measurti looking to a sound and
permanent restoration of the Union
If Mr. STEVENS is a "Radical," he 111 a
radical on the side of patriotism and
justice. If h e for "confiscation,"it is
not - because he is "devilish," or governed
by "revenge and malice," as is charged
by the Demot3rat, because he believes
nothing short of such a measure will de
ter the people of the South from again
attempting to take the life of the Nation,
and to build up in its stead a Slave Oli
garchy. Let them once understand that
Reliellion is to crime that will certainly
...bring with it condign punishment, and
we Shall have nil more of if. Any plan
..of reconstruction that does not mown
plish this end—security for the future—
mast prove a miserable abortion.

at the opening ofthe adjoarneesession
on Wednesday last, indicatea the temper
of the people, (whom the members repre
sent and whose views they reflect,An the
present national Crisis. When Congress
adjourned in the "tipring,_ it was under
stood that there would be no session in ,
July, unless some unexpected difficulties
in the work of reconstruction should
arise, imperatively requiring additional
legislation, The Sherman-Military Bill,
it was thought, would accomplish every
thing necessary" to bring the South to
terms. Fora while all went well, under
the efficient administration of the law
by_General SIIERIDAN, SICKLES, POPE,
and the oilier Commanders of the-South
ern military districts. Leading citizens
of the South, , Rebel and Union, were
rapidly giving in their adhesion to the
terms prescribed by Congress, while con-,
tumacious State and Municipal officials
like WEL,r.s, WrrnEtts and MONROE,
were promptly displaced and loyal men
substituted. Everything gave promise
of an eaxly adjustment of our national
difficulties, and a meeting of Congress in
July was thought unnecessary. Attor
ney General STRANSBERY, however, in
his new role of judicial interpreter qf Con
gressional enactments, a few weeks ago
undertobk to arrest the work of re-con
struction, in a lengthy legal opinion, by
which the Sherman bill was emasculated
of its essentialOitality. This was follow
ed by officialinatructions from the Presi
dent, endorsing the Attorney General's
opinions, and requiring the military com
manders to conform to them. The toc
sin of alarm was immediately sounded
by the loyal sentiment of the land, and
a July session, demanded. Senators anti
Representatives were at once recalled
from summer tours, and when the roll
was called on Wednesday last, 34 Senators
and 120 members of the House responded
to their names.
Both;Houses immediately proceeded to
work—the Sehate Instructing its Judi
ciary Committee to report such addition
al legislation as is required to complete
the work of re-construction, while' the
House raised a special committee, of
which Mr. STEVENS is chairman, to
whom the subject was refprred. It was
also agreed to confine the "legislation at
this session to matters connected with the
re-construction problem.
The House passed resolutions of thanks
to Gens. SHERIDAN, SICKLES, POPE and
SCHOFIELD, thus endorsing their ad
ministration, the President and Attorney
General to the contrary, notwithstand
ing—every Appublican member voting
for the Resolutions, and every Democrat
against them.
Letters from Washington represent that
the Republican members are thoroughly
united in their determination to stand by
the Sherman bill and require its provi
sions to be enforced. If necessary, the
control of the commanders of the South
ern military districts will be taken from
the s President, and all the Southern State
and Municipal governments made sub
ordinate to these commanders, by enact
ments so distindt in terms that neither
President or Cabinet will be at loss to un
derstand them. This is what the coun
try wants, and the loyal voters of the Re
public expect their representatives to meet
the issue'boldly and squarely.
On Monday, Mr. STEVENS, from the
House Committee, introduced a Bill sup
plementary to the Reconstruction laws
of last session. It sets aside the Rebel
State Governmokits, and puts them under
complete subjection to the military au
thority. The sets already performed by
the military commanders are approved,
and their authority henceforth is supreme
in the Rebel States until the work of Re
construction is completed, subject only to
Congress. It regulates the matter of re
gistration and makes the Boa t ids. of Re
gisters the judges of the qualifications of
all persons seeking to register, instead of
the parties themselves. Jt provides a
gainst the removal of the military com
manders, except by and with the advice
and consentpf the Senate. And, finally,
it leaves the President out in the cold, so
far as having anything to do with Re
construction is concerned. -
It the Senate, the Judiciary Committee
also submitted a bill, differing from the
House bill mainly in leaving the Presi
dent's power over the military command
ers untouched.
"gAJ. GEN. RA.WLINS, Gen. GRANT'S
Chief of Staff, has been lecturing in Ga
lena, the home of GRANT, giving a his
tory of the Rebellion and sketching at
length the acts of the Government since
its surrender, showing that the President
ha pursued an eminently pacificatory
co#rse. He is supposed to reflect the
views of Gen. GRANT, and his ideas do
not suit the Radicals."
WE find the above extract going the
rounds of the copperhead press. It is by
such perversions- of facts and history that
Democratic journals seek to bind their
party to the continued support of a policy
which finds countenance only with Reb
els and Rebel 'sympathisers. The truth
is thatOen. RAWLINGS, GRANT'S Chiefof
Staff; in hisspeech at Galena, so tar from
endorsing President JOHNSON'S policy,
squarely detrounced that policy as the
great obstruction in the way of recon
struction. He went further and took de
cided ground in Orvor of theConsprendon
al measures of re-construction, opposed
the views which have recently been put
forth against these measures, charged the
Democratic party for the responsibility
of the late rebellion, and maintained that
the work of sustaining the government
must necessarily be performed by the Ite
publican paity.

retie se of Resolu ads addiged by the
recent'Republican State Convention, and
which we published in full last week.—
The Philadelphia Press says the platform,
"in its strong, vigorous language and
earnest loyalty, reflecting the devotion
and patriotism of the party, anon; sue-,
was. In contrast with the Harrisburg
abortion it is the living, breathing man,
pulaating with life and energor: . aside of a

and not 4 a clique of ruined and dis

in all its poidtions, and its words" fairly
ringing, it is a kwer in itself. Our plat
form will carry a 'candidate; the Demo
cratic resolutions dill sink one. That
is the difference." \
The resolutions, it will teremembered,
open ' with one demanding security
against future rebellion and \ civil war.t-
The second condemns the administration
of ANDREW Jolntsos because he has
been faithless to his trust in failing end
not even trying to gather up and flit in
the organic and statute law of the lands
the great principles which the war has
settled. The third' declares that recon
struction must be so well completed that
traitors driven from the field shall not
find refuge in the courts, and that the
laws shall not be tortured in the interest
of treason. The fourth endorses unre
servedly the reconstruction measures of
the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth Congress
es. The fifth tenders the sympathies and
thanks of the State to Major Genefals
1 PHIL SHERIDAN and DANIEL E. Sfpx . .-
LE$. The sixth censures President
JOHNSON for his disloyal use of the par
doning power against the Union. The
seventh, and it is for the day the most
Important, declares that, warned by past
misfortunes, it is demanded that the Su
preme Court of the State be placed in
harmony with the political opinions of a
majority of the people, to the end that
the court may never again, by unjust de
cisions, seek to set aside laws vital to the
nation, nor imperil the safety.of the pub
lic securities, nor impair tie operation of
the bounty, pension, and tax laws which
were, required for the public defence.—
Democratic partisanship already had se
cured decisions from the bench against
our legal-tenders—against the draft—
against the right of the Goverament to
protect itself. This we do not intend
shall happen again. Democratic parti
sanship on the bench is what we are
called upon to protect the State from this
year, and the discussion of its history
will be the key-note of the campaign.—
The eighth declares, out and out, in hon
orable contrast to the Harrisburg equiv
ocation, in favor of a protective tariff that
shall foster Pennsylvania industry. The
ninth unhesitatingly calls for a free rail
road law. The tenth is complimentary to
Gov. JOHN W. GEARY. The eleventh is
an emphatic and hearty expression of
the continued gratitude of the people to
the soldiers and sailors of the war for the
suppression of rebellion, and corteemns
the tardy action of the Treasury depart
ment in executing the bounty laws of
1866.
"With our colors flying," continues
the Press, "confident of success, and
strong in the consciousness of a good
cause, we go Into the campaign. The
Williamsport platform, nothing • more
and nothing less, is the official announce
ment of the issues on which we:llg4 this
fall. They are so irrefutable and impreg
nable that, instead of attacking them,
the Democracy wilt more likely set up
men of straw of their own and Eight
them. This method of guerilla warfare
will not likely delude the reading voters
of this State. No side issues will be al
lowed to obscure the plain, distinct enun
ciation of our great principles, put forth
at Williamsport."
The N. Y. Tribune says of the plat
form— "The Republican State Convert-
tion which met at Williamsport has given
lull proof that the party in Pennsylvania
has not forsaken those principles which
governed its action from 1860 to the end
of the war. Pennsylvania is thoroughly
Radical, and her radicalism means over
300,000 men sent to the war, and the ut
ter defeat of Copperheadism • at every
general election." 4.

made up, in some degree; the lack of home
preparations. and our streets on the morn

patron* On WedrieSday. a detachment of
the New- York 14th, numbering about 50
men under command of Major MeNtnt, ac
companied by Mayor BOOTH, of Brooklyn,
and representatives of the City Council, and
escorted by the "Ziegle Guards," of York,
under command of Capt. IvEnr, reached
Gettysburg in the evening train. They were
met at the depot by a committee of citizens,
and marched to the Court-house, where they
were presented to the Burgess, R. G. Mc-
CREAM', F.sq.. by Col. C. H. lIIIZEILICR,
Chairman of the Committee. Mr. Iif'CRILILItY,
in a few pertinent remarks, on behalf of the
citizens, extended to the visitors a cordial
welcome to the town, which had been im
mortalized by the• heroism of the defend
ers of the Union in the struggleiif - July, 1863,
—a struggle in which the 19th New York had .
borne an honorable part. Mayor BOOTIE
replied, returning thanks for the cordial
welcome, and paying a glowing tribute to
the I4th, of whom the city of Brooklyn just
ly felt proud. After cheers for the visitors,
and a response "with a tiger" on their part,
the companies marched to their respective
quarters.
The Fourth wow ushered in with firing of
cannon, ringing of bells, and the national
airs by the Gettysburg Cornet Band, played
in capital style. After breakfast, the !unitary
companies paraded the principal streets,
eliciting y their soldierly bearing and
splen d appearance, remarks of admiration
on so I sides. The Brooklyn Band, too, add
ed g esti y to the attractions of the occasion.
if r being diamlssed, the soldiers repair
ed to different points on the battle-field, and
thus spent most of the day, the Brooklyn
boys being specially interested, as litany of
them had participated In the fight.
The visiting military, offlivra and privates,
made a favorable impression in the com-
unity, by reason of their soldierly appear
ance and gentlemanly deportinbnt. The
Brooklyn veterans, in addition to a hand
some silk regimental banner, on which were
emblazoned the names or the battles in which
the regiment had participated, carried with
them their battle flags, torn, stained, and dis
figured, showing the marks of hard aerviee—
and the special pride of the corps. The regi
ment participated, with honorable distinction,
in some of the hardest fought battles of the
war, including Cedar Ntotiutain, Itappahan

We noticed several reporters in the party
—Mr. Wthoax, of the Brooklyn "Union."

The "Ziegle Guards" left in the afternoon

LAMENTABLE ACCIDENT.—A terri
ble accident occurred here on the LaCalling
of the 4th, resulting in the loam of the left
aria of Mr. on( ATWELL, by the prema
ture discharge o a mutt He was en
gaged with several otheryoung men in firing
a salute at an early hour on Cemetery Hill,
and white Mr. Avwebb was in the act of
ramming down a charge, the explosion took
place, throwing him some eighteen feet from
the gun. When picked up, it was found
that his left hand was blown oft his face and
neck burned with powder,' and otherwise
badly bruised. Ile was Immediately taken
to the resident* of Mr. JACOB SIIEAD3,
Where the arm was amputated above the el
bow by Di. HunEn, assisted by Drs. O'NEAL
and HORNER. We are glad to learn that,
under careful nursing, Mr. ATWF.LL is doing
well, and will in all probability reouver
from his injuries, except the loss of his Jett
arm. he cause of the premature discharge
of the cannon, remains a tnystery. It was
in careful hawks, being in charge of young
men NVha had served in the army, and who
had been drilling for several days previously
in the use of the gun, to guard against the
possibility of accident.
Mr. ATWELL is a martile-cutter by trade,
in the employ of Mr. CANNON, and a young
man of exemplary character, enjoying the
confidence and sympathy of the community.
He is a member of Gen. Reynolds Lodge of
Good Tempters, and also of Gettys Lodge of
Odd Fellows.
"YOUNG AMERICA" AND THE,
FOURTH.—Joss ADAMS, of Revolutionary
fame, advised that the declaration of Ameri
oan be celebrated in all time
to come by bon-fires, ringing of bells and
firing of cannon, as a perpetual reminder of
the great event. For years "Young Amer
ica" has oontributed their share to the general
observance of this very proper recommenda
tion, by firing crackers, rockets, Ate., and on
each returning 4th of July the patriotism of
our juvenile population has found free vent
in these harmless amusements. This year,
however, our "City Fathers,";—grown wiser,
if not more patriotic, than their predecessors
—came to the conclusion that these ebulli
tions of youthful patriotism must be dis
pensed with, and a bat was accordingly
placed upon the sale and use of fireworks-,,

modified the better. In crowded cities, and
in the midst of infiiminable structures, the
indiscriminate firing of crackers. dm., may
be Imprudent ; but in such case the authori
ties supply their place by creditable' public
displays. In Gettysburg, the disappoint.

by either reason. On the, recurrence of an

REGISTERING LETTERS.—The Post-
Office Department has remodeled the system
of Registering valuable letters, to provide
greater security. A new style of canvas en
velope, of a large size and of an appearance
sufficiently novel 'to attract ;he attention of
distributing clerks immediately, has been
introduced with this change. Postmasters',
route agents, railway post-office clerks and
receiving clerks, handling this registered
package envelope while in transit, are re
quired to keep a record of its number, post
mark t with date), address, date of its receipt.

A NIOE LITTLE FOWITINE —Many or
our re:uh•rs are probably not aware that in
the Island of Cuba, the Spanish Government
have an enterprise, known as the "Royal
liavana Lottery," entirely under the eontrol:
of th e govornment, and drawn every seven
teen days, distributing prizes of different
amounts, (ruin One Hundred Thousand'
Dollars to Two Hundred Dollars; andi
amounting in the aggregate, to Three Hun
dred and Eighty Fonr Thousand Dollars in
Gold.
At the drawing of June Stli, one prize of
Fifty Thousand Dollars found its way to New
York City. Two gentlemen in Massachu
setts were the lu'ey possessors of one-balfof
this ticket; Two in- - Rhode One-Quar• •
ter ; One in Chicago. One-Eighth, and one in
New York City, One-Eighth. When it is
taken into account that these prizes are paid'
in Gold at the present rate ; One Hundred
and Thirty-Eight per cent; it"," will not be
uch of an operation for any school boy tote]]
what it is worth in Greenbacks. The parties
who were the, fortunate owners of this wind

THE SPRINGS.—The "V ichy Bird" is
the great sensation among tb,e visitors to the
Springs, and the reports of: Its doings and
sayings during tho last week are sufficiently
interesting.
Almost every visitor h ss something now
to relate about this strar,ge guardian of the
Springs. One certifies I hat the bird, or rath
er the voice attributed 1.0 it, first saluted him
in the woods of the Theological Seminary,
and flying or floating before him, seemed to
guide him to the Spri ags through the Herbst
woods. Another, the it the bird followed him
with his jug of watt or—the first that he had
purchased—to his house, and that he after
wards heard it in the trees around his house.
Another says that he InuAllteen the bird, and
favors us with a description, the fancy
sketch of which would adorn the books of
Audubon: a strange, humming-bird-looking
creature, half spiritual, half material, of va
riously colored plumage. It appears t'bo,
according to these authorities a sort opiin
proved edition of the honey bird which ap
pears to the human wanderer in the African
threats, and guides him to the bee trees in
order to share the spoils—only that the for
mer makes itself intelligible to the least dis
cerning. The phenomenon is an interesting
one, and in a more superstitious age would
littract universal attention.
The healing Springs, the names of which
should thus be syllabled from the adjoining
trees, would be regarded as the special gift of
Heaven to suffering humanity, and crowds
from every land would resort to them as ti ,
veritable fountains of life.
