fSTOur neighbor of the Democrat affects
to be greatly pleased to see that we heartily
endorsed the policy of President Johnson.
If onr neighbor is really sincere in his Cnn
Tersion, in favor of the principles of An
drew Johnson, wo shall, be pleased also
And he should explain "why he and his
friend refused to Andrew Johnson, when in
Harrisbarg,' less than two years ago, the
poor privilege of delivering an address in
the Hall of the House of ReprciuntntjTes, a
privilege-often granted to persona of ques
tionable standing and character. ''
There is also another essential point of
difforenco in tliq democracy of the President
And our neighbor. Ha was fu favor of re.
Btoririg the revolted States and bring them
back into the Union, by force, if , necessary
, whilst the editor of the Democrat asserted
that "As for now restoring tho -revolted
States of the Union, liy war, that is tho
wildest chimera that ever entered the brain
of man." If our neighbor is really sincere,
, and no longer thinks the coercion of the
rebels and the restoration of the Union by
force of arms, "the wildest chimera" he
should bo frank enough to say, that not
President Johnson, but that he had himseif
changed his opinion.

GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.
To the Se.taU and House of- Ikprescntutha
of the Commonwealth of Pe'nntnUania.
Gentlemen: The toils and anxieties of
the last four years have from timo to time
brought on me severe attacks of disease.
From the most severe pf these I am now
dowly struggling tovyards recovery. I find
'.hat to give my constitution an opportunity
o continue tliia struggle, it ii..ig
leeeesary that I should, without delay, make
. short sea voyage, and sojourn in a milder
limate. Under the pressure of this necessity
go to the Island of Cuba. It is my hope
nd intention to return in good season to
welcome you on your arrival at the sont of
ovcrnment. But, if it should be found ic
ispeusaMe that my visit to Cuba should be
folonged to the early partof February, this
essage will serve to lay before ymi thu
luse of my absence at the comniuucuiiiunt
'your session. In this caso I feel sure that
u will adopt such course as shall consist
ith your wisdom, and with the all'ectionato
nsideration which I have always received
your hands.
It would, however, not become me to for
t that the issues of life arc iu the hands
the One above all, aud that many have
ind death waiting for them on the foreign
ire to which they had been sent in search
health. Should such bo my fato, I shall
tw my last breath with a sense of the
'pest gratitude to the people of the Com
nwealth and their Representatives for
i cheerful, manly, unfailing support which
y have given during the last four years
'.he great cause of the right, and to me
ny efforts to maintain it, and with a
ycr of thankfulness, to Almighty God,
t lie strengthened me till the ind of the
il rebellion, and thought mo worthy to
icrmitted to continuo to that timo as the
3f Magistrate of the people of Petmsyl
ia. To have my name connected in that
tion with such a people during such a
), ought to be enough to fill tho higliest
sure of any man's ambition.

here is volume of political philosophj
le following from a recent Southern let-
n the staje
8 between Augusta and Mil-1
le with two gentlemen of cou -
flvillc, I rode
able local weight and prominence, who
both anti-Secessionists in 1800-01.
' talked of the approaching convention,
of its probable action in redisricting
itate for representatives. Well, Colonel,'
th younger, himself a man of over
years 'Well Colonel, what will be
roper course when we are once more
restored to the Union V The answer
after a moment's consideration 'We
strike hands with the Democratic party
e North, and manage them as we al
have.' There was a pause while wo
I down the hill, aud then the question,
ipouded, 'That' just it; they were
enough to give tis control if we gave
tbe otlices, aud I reckon they've cot
ed very much yet.' There was thcu
sution on other mattors ; but half an
ter, after a mile or so of silence, tho
I suddenly resumed. 'Yes, sir, our
1 plain; we shall be without weight,
at Slavery's gone, unless we do join
with thorn; Andy Johnson will want
ection, and the united Democratic
lust take him up ; it shall be a fair
1 we want the power and they want
ils.' .
'Colonel," whatever elsu may be
him, knows the Democratic party
1 and through. The only present
y in hi scheme is that the North
inds it perfectly, and that in con
3 the Democracy, though ready and
to be "managed," hasn't . succeeded
t getting many of those "offices"

The following is the conclusion and sum
ming up of the late report of Gen, Carl
Bhurs of Lis examination it to the state of
affairs in the South t 'i .1 . '.-
I may aura op all I ,have said in a few
words. ! ,y ! ' , . . ' '
If nothing Were necessary but ta restore
the machinery jof GTcTnuelit in the States
lutelf; in rebellion In point of firm, tho
movement made t6 that end by ' the" pdopld
of the South might be considered satisfac
tory. But if it is required Hint tho Southern
people l)oulJ also accommodate themselves
to tWtiultiof Uie war' in! point of! spirit,,
these movements fall short ot what must be
lnUtrfl nnon.
The lovalty of tho mosses and most of the
leaders of tho Southern people consists w
suiMWssion o necessity. nero-m, mhiu
individual instances, an entire nrnence oi
;hat notional spirit which foruis, the basis
ot true loyany aui pBiuuuein. '
The emancipation of tho slaves is submit
ted to only in so far ad chattel slavery lit
the old form could not bo kept up. But,
nltVinnrrii tliB froedman is no lonaef con
sidered tho property of the individual mas-
ItT, lie 1. ciiiikiiil-ivi.. mo eiuu m ciuitij,
and all in'dcpoudcnt Stoto lcfllslntian will
show the - tendency to mako him ' sucq.
The ordinances abolishing slavery, passed
bv tho Conventions under tho prcssuro of
circumstances, will not be looked upon' as
barring the establishment of a new form of
servitude. ,
Practical ' attempts' on the' part of the
Southern people-to deprive the negro of his
rights as a lrccttman, may result in bloody
collisions, and win ccrtuiniy plunge south
society into .rustless fluctuations - and anar
chical confusion. -
Such evils can bo prevented only by con
tinuing tho control of the Nntlonnl Gov
ernment in the States lately in rebellion,
until free labor is fully developed and es
tablished, 'aud the advantages and blessings.
under the new order of tilings liavo dis
eased thenist'lycs. The .' desirable . result
will bo hastened by a firm declaration on
tho partof the Government that national
control in tho South will not cease until
stich results are secured. Only in this way
can security be established in tho South,
which will render . numerous" imnrlcration
possible and such immigration would mate:
nally aid a favorable development of things.
l lie solution ot l-ue problem, will be very
much facilitated by efiabliog all the' loyal
and free labor elements' of the .South to
exercise a healthy influence upon legislation;
it will Hardly' be possible to secure the
reedmeu against oj)pressivC class legislation
and private persecution, unless, he be en
dowed with a certain measure of political
power.
As to the future peace and harmony of
tlie L niou, it Is ot the holiest importance
that the people of the States lately in rebel
lion be not permitted to build up another
"peculiar institution," whose suhit is in
conflict with , the fundamental principles of
our political system ; lor as long as they
cuerisu interests peculiar to them in prefer
ence to those they have in common with
the rest of the American people, their loy
alty to the Union will nhvays be suspected.
1 desire not to. be understood as saying
that there are no well-meaning men among
those who were compromised in tho rebel
lion. There are many, but neither their
number nor their influence is strong enough
to control the manifest destiny of the popu
lar spirit.
There ore good reasons for hope that a
determined policy on the part of the Nation
al Government will produce innumerable
and valuable conversions, ,'fhis considera
tion counsels lenity as to persons, such as is
demanded by the humunu and enlightened
spirits of our timc.8, and vigor aud tiruincss
in ilie t.aii vliij; out of nriycinles. HUcli as is
demanded liy the national seuso ol jusucu
aud the exigencies of our situation.
In submitting this report I desiro to say
that I have conscientiously endeavored to
see things as they were, and to represent
them as I 6aw them. I have been careful
not to use language stronger than was war
ranted by' thu thoughts I intended to ex
press. A comparison of the tenor of the
annexed documents w ith that of my report
will convince you that I hove studiously
avoided overstatements. Certain legislative
attempts at present made in the south, and
especially iu South Carolina, seein to be
more than justifying the uyrehensions I
have expressed.
Conscious though I am of having used
my best endeavors to draw from what I saw
and learned, correct general conclusions,
yet I am far from placing too great a trust
in my own judgment when interests of such
magnitude arc at stake. I kuow that this
report U incomplete, although as complete
ns un observation of n few mouths would
cnablo me to make it. Additional facts
might bo elicited calculated to throw new
light upon tha subject. Although I sec no
reason for bclicviug that things have chang
ed for the better since I left the South, yet
such may bo the case. Admitting nil theso
possibilities, still I would eu treat you to take
no irretraceable step toward relieving the
States lately in rebellion from all national
control, until such favorable changes are
clearly and unmistakably ascertained.
To that end. ond by virtue of tho per
mission you honored mo with when sending
me out, to communicate to you my views as
to measures of policy proper to bo adopted;
I would now respectfully suggest that you
advise Congress to send one or rooro '"'in
vestig'otiujj committees" into the Southern
States to inquiro for themselves into tho
actual condition of things before final action
is tttken lll,on the re-admission of such States
ito tlluir representation in tho legislotive
nranca 01 uie government and tho with
drawal of all national control from that
stction of the country.

Causes f Nudden Death.
Vety few of the sudden deaths which are
said to arise from diseases of the heart do
really arise from that cause. To ascertain
the real origin of sudden deaths, an experi
ment had been tried in Europe, and report
ed to a scientific congress held at Stras
bourg. Sixty six cases of sudden death
were made the subject of a thorough t
mortem- examination ; in theso cases only
io were round who had died from disease
ot tho heart. Nino out of sixty-six had
die! from apoplexy, whilo there were forty
six ustS of congestion of the longs that
is, tin lungs were so full of blood they
could not work, there not being room
euongi for a gufflckn quantity of uir to

ment to the general command, to the final
oyprthrow of armed resistance to the Gov

printed columns of tho New .York - 1'imen.
We cannot better express the character and
importance of the document than by quoting
the Times, as follows :
I "There is nothing in military literature or
nisiory comparuuie witn tue report ot .Lieut.
Gen. U. S. Grant, which was published com
plete' in the 7'imc of yesterday. , It is more
compact than Cicsur, more lucid than Jomini,
more pungent than Napier. It covers the
operations of a mightier nrmy, operating
over a vaster service, than ever was mar
shaled by any commander. It will com
mand the attention of the soldiers of the
world, and will be read by all generations
as long as the great war of secession is re
membered. The report embraces but ono:
year out of tho four years of war. . But it
was a. year in which such multitudinous
buttle? were fought and won in which such
a bewildering mass of movements - were
made from points almost innumerable in
w hich such a number of commanding officers
figured honorably or otherwise that it
seems iu perusing the report, which embra
ces inc wnoio in its scope, as it we wero
rnding of a century of battles covering the
surface of tho world." . . '
Arllntou Hclghtst, -
Arlington Heights still remains in the
possessions of the Government., but it ' is
said the wife of General Hobert E. Lee has
recently written to a friend that she intends
to return there, oven if sho "is obliged to
live in tho black quarters." This is indica
tive or lUe streugtli ot her determination to
reassert wuat slie considers tho rights of
herself and husband to this historic pro
perty; but among tbe other obstacles she
will probably encounter, is the fact that
twelve thousand Uuion soldiers have been
buried upon its soil. Sixty . brave Union
officers sleep their last sleep in the grounds
which surround the family mausion; and the
head stores which mark the last resting
place of six thousand of our soldiers are but
a shoit distuueo beyond the remaining six
thousand, being buried in a soldiers ceme
tery about one-half milo distant. It is of
course impossible that the nation can sur
render the graves of so many of its defen
ders to the leader of the armies they volun
teered to oppose. Phila. Prens.
Giieat Railroad Impiiovemknt. It is
stated the lleadiug Hail road Company con
template placing four tracks on their road,
two for passengers aud two for freight.
They have now three tracks over a good
portion of the road. Tho company has re
cently made valuable purchases of property
at Bridgeport, opposite Nonistown, at Con
shohoken, Pottstown and other way stations,
with the intention of erecting large passen
ger and freight depots at ihoie points.
Very heavy purchases of real estate liavo
been made in Heading, and the erection of
very exteusivo shops is now in orocress aud
m part completed. When all the shops are
completed they will extend a full milo in
length. It will require, however, not '.ess
than two years to complete this great im
provement. Upon the line there ore seve
ral tunnels, two or three of them of an ex
tent to incur nn immense amount of labor
nud time. But under tho Presidency of the
Company's able Chief, Charles E. Smith,
Esq., impossibilities appear to fadeaway.

On tho 1st inst., Mr. Noah P. Hill, a
member of Company K. 123d New York In
fantry, while hunting near Granville, N. Y.,
had his utteution attracted to a certain cave
by his dog. Supposing a. fox might be
within, ho placed a lantern on the end of
his gun, and by stooping he entered the
cavo and proceeded about seventy feet when
he saw the eyes of "a varmint." and ner-
ceived at once it wos no fox. Tho animal
wan crouched upon a kind of shelf, and Mr.
Hill, not daring or wishing to back out,
pointed his gun at the creature, when the
latter immediately caught the muzzle in his
mouth. Mr. Hill succeeding in Wresting
It is piece away, pointed it again, and again
the auimul caught it, when Mr. Hill dis
charged tbe gun, heavily loaded with buck
shot, into the creatures mouth and through
the bHck of his neck. The animal bounded
forward, but, with a hatchet and the aid of
las dog, Mr. Hill despatched him at once,
without receiving any injury. It was a
