. EQUALITY AND SOUTHERN RIQHTS.
Tbe Soldiers.' Convention at Cleveland,
In favor of President Johnson's policy, is not
a success by any means.'. Very few distin
guished soldiers vera in attendance. Gen,
Wool, as tbe oldest General in the service,
presided temporarily. Gen. Titos. Ewing
made the principal opening speech. He de
clared that "we might look in vain for the
South to degrade two hundred thousand of
their ablest men," in other words, impose
: restrictions on the loading traitors, "or aur
render one-room or tbe representatives as
a penalty for ' refusing suffrage to the ne
groes." - How any democrat or soldier can
sustain the doctrine Of negro representation
without suffrage, is one of the mysteries of
modern politics. Why the white men of
a southern State, that has not as many white
- men within its borders as a neighboring
State, should have twice as many represen
tatives in Congress, because they employ an
equal number of negroes, who they regard
as mere chatties, and to whom they refuse
the right of suffrage, is neither democracy,
common cense, or common justice to the
North. The policy of negro suffrage in a
State is a question upon which honest men
1 may differ, but the idea of refusing suffrage
to the negroes, and yet claiming the right
to represent them in Congress, is simply car
rying out the doctrine that one Southern
man is equal to two men in the North.
. t5The Union Mass Meeting, which will
be held at this pluco on Friday, the 28th inst.
, will be, no doubt, one of the greatest
meetings ever held in Sunbury. Besides
Gen. Geary, Gen. Cameron and Gov. Curtin,
a number of other prominent speakers will
be present. An excursion train will run
from Harrisburg and intermediate places, as
follows :

fc3"RKco5STBCcTioN. The late massa
cre of Union men by rebels at Platte City,
Mo., and the murder and attack upon a
camp meeting of colored men in Maryland,
thews what ideas these Southern men have
of reconstruction. They refuse to loyal Union
men, white or black, the privilege of assem
bling either for political or for religious pur
poses. They denounce and trample upon
the American flag, and proclaim tbe right
of secession as a principle, and contend they
were justified in rebelling against the gover
ment. Such men only want an opportunity
to rise again. Until these turbulent and un
principled men are entirely subdued, there
can be no peace between them and Union
men, and nothing but the strong arm of the
' military can keep them in subjection. Their
ideas of reconstruction are now exactly those
of Jeff Davis, in the early days of tbe rebel
lion. Tbey desire to bo let alone, expel all
loyal men, and rule the country to suit them
selves. That Is tbe idea of reconstruction
South. Congress and the peoplo, North,
can't see it in this light hence their hatred
for what they call the radicals. But tbey
bope, with the aid4of the leaders, of tbe so
called democrats of tbe North, to get power,
nd by dividing tbe office with tbe latter,
re-establish themselves and : crush out the
pirit of liberty and establish a government
which regard labor as degrading, and keeps
poor man, white or black, in subjection.

to the interest of the proceedings there la
to bo, we learn, a Bureau, in the, procession,
over which tour neighbor of the Democrat 1
to preside. His special duty will be to keep
locked wp in the Burean all the slanderous
articles published by the Democrat and other
papers of that stamp, calling the President
a drunkard, tyrant, fool, &o. Another draw
cr will be devoted exclusively to keep safe,

cratio candidate for Governor, refusing to
let President Johnson speak in the Legisla
tive Hnll.and also his (Clymor's) votes against

the rebellion, would be rather damaging, if
made public. - - tJ , ' '
fjrCiTAS. M. Hall Esq. We notice
among the new appointment in Philadel
phia, by the President, the name ofChfts. M.
Hall for Postmaster, in that city. Mr. Hall
is a practical and self-made man, of more
than ordinary ability. He graduated from
this office as a printer, with great credit to
himself, about the time that Gen. Taylor was
elected President, and soon after went to
Washington and worked at his trade in the
government office, under Mr. Wendoll and
others, whose acquaintance and friendship
have served him in subsequent life. While
there he was the correspondent of this office
He afterwards established the Mining Reg-
Uter, at Pottsville,which he edited with great
vigor and ability. When Mr. Lincoln was
elected President be was offered tbe office of
Deputy Surveyor in tbe Custom House, at
Philadelphia, which he accepted and held
until bis recent appointment as Postmaster
of Philadelphia. Mr. Hall posesses all the
requisite qualifications for that responsible
position, and will, no doubt, prove himself
an efficient and obliging officer. ....

Dear Sib Yours, of the 11th instant, is
duly received, enclosing that shamelessly
false card on the subject of bounties given
by Congress to white and colored soldiers.
Our political adversaries are acting upon
tbe adage, A lie well adhered to is as
good as the truth." As military agent of
Pennsylvania at Washington for moro than
two years, I became familiar with all the
laws of Congress granting bounties to sol
diers. I most positively affirm that no act
or nets of Congress discriminate against white
toldurt or in Jaror of colored, toldurt. A:l
assertions to the contrary are falsehoods, in-

Mr. Jordan hat been the State Agent of
Pennsylvania at Washington for the last two
years, ne is an able lawyer, and would
know, as clearly as any man, whether Con
gress had pawed a law discriminating in
favor of black soldiers, on the subject of
bounties. We deem this card of Mr. Jor.
dan's sufficient to convince any fair man
that the declarations of the Copperheads on
this subject are false in all these particulars.
Tub Sad Fall of a Public Man. A St

following lamentable story : "ConiiDg down

Congress, soon lost bis property, bis position

bTIn 1857, during Mr. Buchanan's ad
ministration, Green was one of the leading
men in favor of the Lecompton swindle
which Mr. Buchanan supported. But he
was then so far gone that we saw him stag

the Senate. He wat an able lawyer and a
good debater, but like many Southern states

A correspondent of the Chicago liepuUi-ea-who
travelled with the- Presidential
party, la a despatch teat from Cincinnati,
furnished tbe following eignifloant eP'"

tion In reference to the political issues of the
' OBIT. OBAKT A OUtt BBPOltTBR.
The fact is, that Gen. Grant knowt, as has
been patent to every' ? during the whole
of this trip, that continued efforts have been
made to embitter, if possible, his relations
with tbe President by exciting the jealousy
nf tbe latter, or by making invidious distinc
tions between them, and he is determined
that no act of his shall lend tuy encourage
ment to any tuch contemptible proceed iim
on the one band, or those that have been
made witb like persistency to identify him
with the political views of the President, on
the other. Gen. Grant feels that, next to
the President, he is tbe head of the army of
tne united states, not the leader or a politi
cal party. He doet not consider the army a
place tor a politician, and therefore will not
permit himself to be committed to the tup
port of either of the present political parties,
nor that tbe armv shall be made a Party ma
chine. ' i- i.. ' ' .1 . r

I have submitted the above to the Gene
ral, who entirely approves of what I have
written, and sayt that it fully and exactly
expresses his views. 1 will, however, state
tnat as originally written, the concluding
sentance was in these words : "When he
becomes a partisan he intends immediatclv
to resign his present position," and to this
the General objected, saying that it might
be taken to imply that at some future time
be did intend becoming a partisan, whereas
his only intention in using these words was
I cAfiivus, s au umvur ui ma nruiy ms dis
approbation of any attempt to identify Lim
witn any political party whatever.
For what follows of interest in my des
patch, it will be best that the public should
receive it in the chronological order in which
it really occurred, in order that it may note
the essential meanness of the men who are
the particular friends and devoted sycophants
oi tue men wuc" could slander the Union
men of New Orleans, and, as is alleged and
not contradicted, tamper with the despatch'
ei of Gen. Sheridan.
The above conversation with Gee. Grant
took place in tbe baggage and refreshment
car attached to the train, in the presence of
Major ucn, itawungs, cruet or start to Uen.
Grant ; also of another major general, who,
I think, was Gen. Stoneman ; but of this I
am not certain, for I did not take any parti
cular notice who it was.
In addition to these militarv men, there
were also present Mr. Warden, who is con
nected with tbe New York Timet'. John
Hogan, of St. Louis, Mo ; Mr. Chadwick, of
w;n...,i'. irt-i w ui .
iii'wiub owi, if oaiiiiiiun, snu one or
two members of the Columbus delegation
wuose names l aon t Know.
General Grant afterward retired from the
refreshment car, and as Mr. Warden im
mediately entered into conversation with
General Rawlings with great eagerness, ap
parently respecting what might have been
said to me by General Grant, and frequently
looked in my direction, wishing to do a good
turn to a fellow reporter, who had the same
chanee of obtaining information as himself,
I offered to inform him as to the conversa
tion which had Passed between mvself and
the General, and in general terms did so.
We shortly afterward left the baggage car
iur uie car next to tne fresident s, where 1
was busily engaged writinsront mv despatch
and making the alteration requested by Gen.
Grant. Mr. Warden sat a lew seats from me,
in Iront, and when Senator Patterson of
Tennessee, tbe well-known Unionist who
took office under the Confederacy, entered
the car, he immediately ttmved him andheoan
a tomewhat excited eonvertation, at the end of
vnica we loyai senator itooti hie finger toward
we corner in vntcA J eat, ana then went into
OBNBRAL GRAHT AOAIN.
In about a minute afterwards General
brant, who had been into the President's
car to present himself to the people assem
bled at West Junction, re-entered the car,
and, having seated himself, beckoned to me
to come and spea with bim. I did to. and.
on seating myself by his side, he went on to
say that be thought that if I published the
account already submitted to him, bo would
like it to be understood that he had refused
to receivo tbe proposed demonstration en
tirely, because he lelt it his duty to refuse
any reception or demonstration tendered
separately to himself while travelling with
the President, or to do anything which
might be construed ss favoring any political
party. He then went on to reiterate hit de
termination not to be used by those who
sought to commit bim either for or against
the President's policy, or to attach any po
litical significance to bis presence on tbe
President's excursion. Ho had also been
much annoyed at the use which had been
made of his name by John Hogan, who bad
presumed to state that General Grant wat
politically witb tbe President, and on one
similar occasion by Mr. Seward; bo felt that it
was, above all things, desirable for officers
of tbe army to avoid participation in ordi
nary political conflicts, except that it was
their duty as citizens to support only men
who could show a record of consistent loyalty.
Whether a man's sentiments were Johnson
ian or Republican, be said he felt that it was
an insult to any loyal man to ask him to
vote for any candidate who was not a loyal
man in 1861. In this connection, be said
that, without expiating any views of bis own
for or against the Johnson policy, he yet fait
it to be a misfortune for Mr. Johnson that
the advocates of bit policy in the States
through which we bad just passed Missouri,
Illinois and Indiana had in soma instances
put upon their ticket men who, in 1861 and
186a, bad been guilty of known disloyalty
to tbe Government ; because (and this was
said in a very emphatic manner) he folt that
to ask men whose toot had thed tbeir blood
for tbe Union to vote for men who had been
disloyal to it, wat the greatest insult that
could be offered. Southern men be could
make allowances for, and be could ride
through tbe South and get out on a platform
and shake handt . in, friendship with tuch
men at Lee, Johnston or Forrest, because,
though they bad been almost educated into
secession, tbey coma now truly honest and
loyal in their adherence to the Union, and
were seeking to strengthen it. But be did
not feel in that way toward Northern men
who had once been disloyal, and neither
desired to associate with them nor have
them for bit friends. No tuch men should
have bit tupport, nor ought tbey to be top
ported by Mr. Johnson's friends throughout
the Northern States. He particularly
ttanced, a a tjmimen of Ki objectionable clam
of wen, Hikstbb Cltmkb, the Democratic
candidate for Governor of Ftnntylvania, any
ing that to aik any toldier to tote for tuck
man, of, at one time, knovn didoyalty, againtt
another teho had terted four year in the Union
army, with credit to himeelf and benefit to hi
country, vat Q'groti intuit. If men desired
to tupport Mr. Jobnton'i policy let tbem,
but at all eventt let them vota only for tuch
men at were true to tbeir country in 1861. '
General Grant endorsee nobody's policy.
Of course be bat bit own opinions, and I
presume will girt them expression in bit
vote ; but until ha shall himself have ex
pressed them, or become candidate for
fome political ofhee t very unlikely occur
renceit it only impertinence in toy one to
Inquire what tbeaa opinions are, or to pre
tume to speak for him, or to aetodatthim in
anfiti'firUn men etit cannot thow a clear
reeor&forloyaUy."
The significance of this remarkable acd
emphatic statement cannot be overestimated.
To be thoroughly understood, it ' must be
recollected by our. readers that among tbe
old officers of the regular army it ia consid
ered a serious breach nf propriety to be in
volved in the ordinary political controver
sies in wntcu an other classes or citizens
freely engage. ' General Grant evidently re
spects this feeling of bis distinguished mili
tary associates and tue traditions ct his ae-
fartment, and bat resolutely endeavored,
or this good rorisoh. to avoid tht areni of
partisan politics.11 But even the 'limit or his
forbearance was reached by tho ungenerous.
Impudent and unauthorized statements or
orators connected with the Presidential par
ty, and lie' was determined 1o flatly contra,
diet the allegations of Mr'. Hogan and Sec
retary Seward I He speaks witb no uncertain
sound. Ho does not tupport "Mv Policv."
and on the contrary deems it the duty of
every patriotic citizen to tupport at candi
date! for office "only men who can show
a record of consistent loyalty." In reference
to tne contest in rennsyivania lie speaks in
terms of unqualified condemnation of Hies-
ter fjlymcr, declaring that it is an insult to
any toldier to be tsked to vote for ,tuch a
man. He cordially and fully endorses Gen.
Geary, on the other hand, as one "who bad
served four years In the Union army with
credit to himself and benefit to bis country,"
and thus silences forever .the calumnies of
the Copperhead press.' " ,
This authoritative exposition of the views
of General Grant is the crowning disaster of
the political pilgrimage ; to Chicago. It
brands with falsehood the only statement
made during that trip that thook even mo
mentarily tbe faith of a single loyal voter.
and it proves that the illustrious leader of
tho national armies, like the rank and file,
"keeps step to the music of the Union I"
rhila, i-rett.
Tbe Disaster sat lohmstowm.
Johnstown, Fnday, Sept. 14. A most
distressing catastrophe occurred at Johns
town this morning, by which thirteen per
sons wero killed, ninety-odd badly injured,
and a larger number bruised and slightly
hurt. . In expectation of the special train
containing the Presidential party, a large
number of people, probably 8,000 in ail, bad
gathered in and about tbe depot at this
place, to tender the usual salutations. Near
tho depot is an old canal, and which was a
double crossing with a tqrt of cover fifty
icet square between. Upon tms structure
or bridge tome eight or nine hundred peo
ple had congregated, a large number of
whom were women and children. The cen
tre part was densely packed, and must have
contained at least four hundred people.
The train bad bardly stopped when the
centre part gave way with a tremendous
crash, precipitating tho entire party in a
headlong mass, some thirty feet. Hardly
bad the noise ol tbe falling timbers tnd the
snncKs oi tne terrified people above ceased,
when the groans of the dying and tbe
screams of the women and children came
from tbe awful wreck below. All who had
escaped injury proceeded at once to extricate
the sufferers, who were piled one upon the
other among a mass of broken timbers and
iron rods. Several of the Presidential party
assisted in removing tuo dead and injured,
among wuom were Marshal u lieirne, Mr.
Murphy, Mr. Cadwallader and myself. Tbe
President and General Grant were exceed'
ingly distressed, and were very anxious that
the special train should stop over an hour
a n". 1 t , i a .
iu auuru as mucn aiu as possiuie, out tue
conductor stated that arrangements made
for meeting, trains on the road precluded
the possibility of carrying into effect the
fresident s humane wish, and after a lew
minutes the train started off. ... .
The party above alluded to, however re'
mained, and rendered a good deal of assist
ance lor nearly two Hours. The poor Vic
tims men, woman and children were drag
ged out from the ruins, several of whom had
been crushed to death by falling timbers,
but more by being fallen upon by others,
Most of tbe killed and wounded were of the
laboring class. Mr. Metzger, one ol the
killed, was proprietor of the hotel, and was
quite wealthy, and Miss Letitia Cannon was
the belle of the town, and graduated at tbe
bead of her class on Tuesday lust. The scene
was one of indescribable horror. The groans
of tbe wouuded and the screams and tears
of mothers, wives, sisters and daughters, was
tne saddest 1 ever saw.

The object of the Association In inaugurating this
enterprise is for the purpose of procuring funds in
order ts enlarge its sphere of usefulnMs and for pro
euring a building suitable for the discharge of its
cbarable duties. Heretofore, the association, for
want of funds, hare been obliged to confine its opera
tions to a limited sphere, and depend solely upon its
immediate friends for support and aid, never before
having made a publie appeal lor assistance in its
laudable efforts to assist the needy and destitute.
Tbe Board of Directors, being impressed by the fact
that a large amount of suffering will fall to the lot
ol the indigent of this city during the inclemency of
tbe coming Winter, have, after due deliberation, de
cided that the accompanying plans is the most
feasible one that could be adopted for replenishing
their treasury, as it will allow the charitably dis
posed to contribute the fund, and at tbe same time
offer an inducement worthy of the attention of all.
The prloe of a ticket is small in comparison to the
great benefits accruing to tbe unfortuuate class for
whose benefit the undertaking is intended. The
fund will be divided into 18,008 premiums, amount
ing, la the aggregate, to i0,000, thus leaving a
balance of $10,000. in the hands of tho Treasurer, to
be devoted to the onaritable objects above enumera
ted. Tbe distribution has beoo placed la the hands
of gentlemen whose well-known Integrity is a
guarantee that all its dealings will be ehacterited by
honesty and iair dealing, thus relieving the Associa
tion from any unjust erilieisui that might, otherwise,
be indulged in, from the faot of the numerous bogus
advertisements appearing in onr papers.
The distribution ef premiums will take place on
the 0th of October 1800, and all remittances should
he made at as early date as possible, as tickets are
now being rapidly sold, and will require a large
amount of time and labor to complete the business
t the appointed time. The following Is a list ef tie
premiums to be awarded, and will be found to be
worthy of attention, laying aside the eharttable leld
St opens te the beaetroleni. ,
