JE2ST Billy Burgess who has resumed the place as publisher of the B'ack It. publican nigger franchise organ of this Count3 r , gives a somewhat detailed account of his distinguish ed services as a soldier. He don't sa3 T any thing about his sneaking out of the draft in 1862, nor of having deserted his County pnd sold himself aud boy, for §l2OO, in 18G4- He does not state he never carried a mus ket for a week, during the whole time of his aervice, nor does he 6a3* that he ever lost a drop of that precious blo< d which still rubi fiea and illumines his phunny phiz. The rebs must have heard that Billy was around, or they would'nt have caved in so soon.

" Senator, George Tonage-tax Landon, Secured the conferees by means of a little ibimble rigging arrangement, played in this wiae : Bradley Wakeman, his staunch friend and advocate, consented to act as a "decoy duck" or 6tool pigeon toe.ll iu the silly black birds who do not exactly relish the carcass which Landon wishes to feast on it smells raiher too strongly of nigger equal i ty, and tonage-tax swindle for thetn. The •tool pigeon and the ropes of the net weie managed by Mr. John S. Lurn a brother-in law of Landon. Wakeman, who knows he is not fit for the position, who don't want it, and who declared himself both before and after the nomination, as a Landon man, was i nominated. Landon's brother in law, and Benjamin Ross, another Laudun man, were appointed as conferees. Of course Mr. Turrel and his friends in j Susquehanna County, will Dot see through the trick. Of course Mr. Landon will have bard work to induce the Wyoming Conferees to vote for him ! There were three billions of dollars worth of slaves in the country, owned by less than half a million people. This was called the slaveocracy. The capitalists of the countly have made war upon and demolished the •laveocracy. It has cost three billions to do it. The Southern slaves are turned into Government bonds, which are held by less than half a million capitalists. Slaveocracy ia turned into bcndocracy. And the ques tion comes, shall we accord the bondholder a privilege the slaveholder never asked—an exemption from taxation 1 This is abolishing •lavery—in a horn !It sets Sambo loose, but binds the chains of eternal servitude upon the white laborer.— Ex. COINCIDENCES —lt may interest the cu rious to know that the two rival political candidates for Surveyor General are resi dents of the same town ; that they are both members of the Town Council; that they were both defeated ; that they were both out in the three months' service—Linton as cap tain and Campbell as lieutenant; that they together raised a regiment, and that each in succession commanded it; here, however, the coincidences fell, for while Col. Campbell commanded the regiment during inaction Col. Linton led it in battle and became the fighting leader. The consequence of which was that Linton got shot through the thigh and through the shoulder, and bears two Ugly but honorable scars, while Campbell eame of without a scratch, and still retails a whole skin. Cuiious, ain't it ? WHAT GREELEY SAYS. —Greeley has said that the War was bungled and blundered. He further sa3 T s that if the Administration bad taken hold of the peace negotiation busi ness bravely and wisely, when Alexander H. Stephens first publicly souciud permis sion to visit Washington, Ve believes "it would have saved a quarter of a million pre cious lives, an awful amount of devastation and misery, and left our National Debt a lull billion less than it is to-day." Who opposed this 1 Not the men who are reviled as "Copperheads." They plead for the initiation of such measures. Their crime consisted in wanting to have done what Mr. Greeley savs it i 6 his opinion could have been done and should have been done. It waa through the malignants that this pr< ject was defeated, and the malignants are now doing their utmost to prevent the restoration of the Souihern States to their rights as 6tatea in the Union. Have the people not bad enough of wrangling war and taxation ? If they have had enough of theße things, it is about time they sent these malignant* adrift •politically. Principles of the Democratic Party. The shoddy, nigger equality party, in or- | der to establish a claim to decency and de- ; ceivc people into the belief that they possess ' principles entitled to respect, make a great 1 ado over Forney, Cesna, Butler and other 1 broken down, disgraced political renegades I who have gone into their party, for the sake I of plunder. They never fail to announce the ' fact of such an accession to their ranks, with the declaration that tha convert is a "Demo crat of the old "jacksonian" or J. tfers<>nhn school." While so many of the traducers and and villifiers of Jackson and Jacksonian principles still live and vote against the dem ocracy and while those doctrines and princi ples, are so firmly lixed in the memories of so many of his original friends and suppor ters ; this claim by the nigger franchise parly to those principles, needs only to be made, to be instantly exposed and refused. In order to exhibit the fidelity with which democrats of to-day, pursue thu ancient land marks and principles of their party ; and at the same lime to expose the utier hollowness and falsi ty of the pretensions of those oppos.-d to them, we publish below, soma of the CARDINAL PRINCIPLES OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY as set down BY THOMAS JEFFERSON, its founder in his inaugural address. We *t.k every thinking man to read and compare it with the principles and practices of the fanatics who now assume to be the exponents of Jefferso nian principles. j '"About to enter, fellow -citizens, on the ex ercise of duties which comprehend everything dear and valuable to you, it is proper that 3 on should understand what I deetu the essan'ial principles of our government, and conse quently those which ought to shape its ad ministration.

Address by Montgomery (Hair. Baltimore Aug 27.—Montgomery Blair made a speech at Clarksburg, II .ward conn ty ye-terday, defending the President's re construction policy. In the course of his ad Iress, he made some bitter atiacks upon Secretaries Seward and Sianton, charging the former with having played for and against the Union before enieru g Mr. Lincoln's Cab met, and afierwards by his alliance with the Confederates up to the fall of Fort Sumter, prolonged the agreement made with Davis by order 1 f Buchanan before the termination of his Administration It was apparent from the whole course of public that affjirs of Mr, Seward acted in concert with Buchanan's Ad ministration during the last three months of its term. It was bv the coalition formed be tween Seward and Stanton, then in Buchan an s Cabinet, that I lie latter became Secretary lof war to Mr. Lincoln.

The Abolit'on Republicans of lowa, who : believe wiih Tbad. Stevens, Bill Kelly, Wayne Mc Veagh and other radical leaders in | our own State, that a negro is as good as a while man, held their Slate Convention a few weeks ago. nominated candidates f< r G >ver- ' nor and other State offices, and adopted a j | platform openly in favor of n**gru-voting, and j of striking the word "white" frotu the lowa i I Constitution. The wiiLe soldiers of lowa,' not being willing m lend themselves (as llar traidi and Campbell are doing in Pennsylva nia) to negro purposes, called and held a State I Convention of their own, and nominated Guh- 1 ernatorial pnd n'her candidates on a white blatform, in opposition to the republican tick- I et "c- Since this action of the S Idiers, the Dem ocats of lowa held their S'ate Convention and, after inquiry, finding that the candidates wete all white men, and true constitutional men, adopted the soldier's ticket. Thus the white soldiers of lowa and the Democracy of that State, are cordially united nu the same ticket, in opposition to'the bUick Republicans, and, there is little or no doubt that they will ' suocetd by a large majority. I The Negro Question now In Issue In Penn sylvania. The N'gro- voting Abolition leaders are frying to dodge the Digger question, in this State, and striving to deceive the white free men of the S'ate into the belief that it is not involved in our coming October election ; and they do this, knowing the contrary to be the fact . The following circular from one of their chief men, which is being secretly sent broadcast over the State, speaks conclusively on this point: PETITION. The undersigned respectfully ask the adop tion of the following PROPOSED AMEND MENTTO THE UNITED STATES CONSTITU TION. No Stale sha I make any distinction in civil rights and privileges among the nut uralized citizens of (he United States re siding xci'htn its limits, or among pe sons boru on its soil uf parents permanently res ident there, on account of race, colo r , or de scent. I ask your attention to the following, as a means of ensuring government prosperity in our country : Do rot trust to State enactments to SECURE the ballot to the disfranchised at the South. Pro Slavery -States will give a vote to the Freedtnen to be again recognized as States ; and when admitted, will take it away and again oppress them. Before >.ny of the rebelli <us Slates are admitted , make it the FUNDAMENTAL Law of the NATIQ.N that no State Rhall put a ban on any one because of race, color, descent, and then the otherwise defenseless population of the South will have the means to make their lights nspeeted. Sign and have all true friends of Peac* and Freedom to sign the petition on the other side. When you have ten names or less, see that the petition is sent to your Representa tive in Congress. If you agree with this, do not lay it aside, expecting others to do youi work. EDWARD M. DAVIS. Ju'y 7865 Philadelphia. Now, supposing the negro voting amend ment to the Constitution of the United Stales, suggested in the above circular, to be adopted by the Abolition Congress, it then Comes directly to the Legislature of Penn sj Ivania, for approval and ratification, and would be decided by the Senators and mem bers of Assembly who are to be elected at our next election. Cons qnently, the issue of negro-voting in Pennsylvania, is fully be fore our people, for this secret circular Amendment applies to all the States. It says expressly that "NO STATE shall make distinction in civil rights and privileges," "'on account of RATE, COLOR, or descent (hat is, that the "civil rights and privileges" ol the negro shall, in every 6tate, be equal to thogp of the white man ! What say our white freeman—what 6ay the white soldiers—of Pennsylvania, to this? II they are in favor of it, and want to have negroes as their political equals—they will vote for Hartranft, Campbell, and the Aboli tion senatorial and assembly candidates, in October; if thpy are opposed to it, anG Would have Pennsylvania preserved as a white man's S'ate, thev will vote against these men, and fur the whi'o man's, or dem ocratic, candidates Such will be one of the real and important issues in October next, and the Abolition leaders know it, but are aiming to keep the mass of the voters, from so seeing and understanding M.—Jeffersonian OUR STATE TICKET, We cordially agree wih the Reading Ga zette, that the Democratic S'ate Convention has nominated for the State offices to be filled at the October election, two of the hravet of the brvemen that Pennsylvania sent into the Union army. They are not of the class of shoulder-strapped heroes who strutted in the corridors of fashionable ho tels or 6at upon Courts Martials during the hottest of the War, but real heroes who were in actual, perilous service in the field, from the day they received their commissions until the hour of their discharge. Col. Davis, our candidate for Auditor Gen eral, is the well known commander of the gallant old 104h Regiment, which, with him at its head, won imperishable renown in ma ny a hard-fought battle. A shattered arm, disabled for life. : s the honorable proof he hears with him of the reality of his devotion to the Union, which none will be bo craven as to gainsay. Our rand idate for Surveyor General, Ma jor Linton, was an officer of the same Regi ment—the 54'h Pennyslvania—that h-s com petitor on the Republican ticket, Col. Camp hell, commanded, and is beloved by all the Pennsylvania boys of the Army of the Poto. mac. as the fighting man of his Regiment He, t. o. is at attle scarred soldier, whose mutilated body at'esta his self-sacrificing heroism in the cause of the Union Both can handle the pen as readily as they have wielded the sword, and have every requisite for the fairhfui administration of the offices to which they have nominated. With such candidates, placed upon a plat form at once loyal, patriotic, conservative and constitutional, our success in October is already achieved. ITS" There are seven Mij >r Generals, each wnh a numerous and ex ensive staff, i n charge of Ihe couple thousand troops which are scattered over New Jersey, New York, and the New England Staes. Each of them draws about seven thousand dollars, so that the expense of main'&ining these "warriors" and their staff's, on the peace footing, is scarcely less than two hundred thousand dollars a year. This is pleasant news for the tax payers, indeed, especially when it is addeo that the only business they have to perform is to drink, play billiards, fliit wi'h the ladies, and generally to enjoy a 'good time.' JOHN KKOUN TIIE "MARTYIt." We find in an evening piper the fallowing note of acknowledgment, written by tbe Sec retary of State to an artist : DEPARTMENT OF STATE, ) WASHINGTON, JULY 12, 1865 $ DEAR SIR . I pray you to accept my thanks for your admirable portraits of the president of tbe United States, and also for your kindness in giv ing me what according to my recollection, is an excellent likeness of John brown, whose name has become historical ao a. martyr in the cause of hu man nature. Faithfully, yours WILLIAM H, SEWARD, Mr John W. Dodge. The notorious JOHN BROWN, who it would seem from this letter, was a personal acquai tance of Mr. SEWARD'S, and is called by him a "martyr in the cau.*>e of human nature," was a thief, robber,and murderer, wbojuMly paid the penalty of hit crimes on the gallows, His canonization by tbe Republican party, shows what a set of canting hypocrites they were, whin in fanning the fanaticism which brought on the war, they disclaimed any in tennon to distu-b slavery in the states where it existed. To call old Ji HN BROWN, a sam', a martyr, a '"Christ" and what not, is the strongest expression of approval and admira tion of the deed which made him not< rious.— It is in vain for the Republicans to deny that their party was formed and nursed in a spirit of provocation and agg-ession when they bla zon the evil deeds ot that old cut-throat and consecrate his crime. We may be quite sure that President JOHNSON never looked upon JOHN BK >WN as a "mart* rin the cause of human nature."— On the contrary, he regarded BROWN'S crime with de'estation and horror. lie was shock ed by the blasphemy of making a saint and a Christ, of a man whom he denounced as an "old felon," reprobating the apologies made '•for the infamv," this was his language, "'the ' murders, the thieving, the treacherous con '"duct of this old man BROWN, w ho was roth 'tng more than a murderer, a robber,a thief, "and a traitor." In what kind of esteem Mr. JOHNSON holds those who make a martyr and a ■chust" of JOHN BROWN may be inferred : from the following further extract from his speech : 'T hive got mother idea in ethics," "said Mr. JOHNSON, and that is, that there "was never any people on the face of the "earth greater than the god they w irshiped ; "and if J< HN BROWN becomes the christ, and "and hts gallows the cross, GOD deliver me "from such people as they, whether they are fanatics Democratic or Republican, or any other description of persons—l care not by what name "they ate called."— Worltl. E lward B. Ketchum, the forger of the gold cert lficates in New York, has been arrested in a Twentieth street hoarding house, where he had taken boarding for six months und< r the name of J. B Lowry. Except on the day of his disappearance he had • been out walking without disguise, and had even been in Centra! Park. While the detectives were waiting for him at his lodging*, he was out ! somewhere plating billiards. Some G7 gol t certificates were found "'n his possession and seventy or eighty thousand dollars in legal tender. CUTTING THEM DOWN —An order is ex pected to be issued so >n mustering out over i two hundred M jor and Brigadier Generals The above paragraph is g 'tng the rounds j of the Reoublicyn papers It is the same old ''order" we have been hearing of for the last three months, but never enforced- The object is to keep the people in good heart until after the fall elect tons. THE TRIAL or WIRZ —The trial of Wirz the keeper of the Andersonvtlle prison pens, has been progressing before a military com mission, in Washington, for a week past. The testimony of witnesses, who had been confined in prison pens over which Wirz presided, make up a record of the most tern ble tortures and sufferings, endured by the soldiers who were there confined. It will require more than one and a half million dollars to pay the general officers as signed to duty under the recent general order Th's is a Monstrous imposi'ion npoh the tax payer*. The people want no standing army of shoulder straps while peace reigns—espec tally of those political, holiday creatures who never saw tbe 'front' in war times. Muster them out and stop the vast expense ol keep ing them in idleness. The Government, says the Philadelphia Inquirer, is supplying ten thousand n< grocs, in the neighborhood of Vteksbtirg, with lands and other articles noeeary lor farming, on a credit, and add* : "This sys'em is considered the most suit able to the freeduu-r>, as ii teaches them to tely on their own exertions." It is high time that this whole Freemen's Bureau system was abolished. It is simply another name for a great negro boardug house at the expense of the people. It is said that a monument to John Brown will be erected in Tarrington, Conn, the town where he was bo n. Will they also erect one to J. Wilkes Booth ? Abolitionists argue that the negro is the equal of the white man. He may be, say* an exchange, as far as they are concerned.— They are bettei able to measure their own capacities than any one else. Stone, the Republican nominee for G 'ver nor of lowa, is running upon a negro suffrage platform adopted for htm by the party. The soldiers do noUtke that state of affair and are getting up a candidate of their own, EST Chicago, it is said, is completely at' tbe mercy of the rats which infest the large graneries of that locality.

Col.

' -Town Talk" furnishes us this week with some incidents and "talk" of and concerning the doings in j the town for the past week We assure our readers that "Town Talk" whoever he or she may be, is not a M.vth ; but is a real live creature, of fljgh and b'ood, with eyes and ears open, and power of loco motion. If it should turn out that "Town Talk" in his or her peregrin ttions. hears or sees things that are not intended for the ears or eyes of the public, why all we have to say is, that we are not responsi ble for "Town T ilk's" inquiring turn of mind, nor for "Town Talk's" propensity to "talk." TOWN TALK, "If there's a hole in a' your coats I rede ye tent it : A chiels amang you taking notes, And, faith, he'll prent it."

However it is perfectiv immaterial to us whether we meet with the commendations or c trses of this public, as wo have no political aspira'.i ms, anl do not deoenl up on their patronage for a living. Hiving this sort of a don't care-a- latmativeness feeling about us, we shall claim and exercise the privilege of prais ing or abusing whom we please. With this tmdor standing we make our bow to the public. Siturday a "puir crazed body" took up a posi tion near the hotels, and treated the public to a ser mon, on tho general wi -kedness of the town, and the great evil of hiskev drinking in particular.— Although generally wild and Incoherent, there was enough "method in her madness," to tell a good many truths, not wholesome to those at whom they were directed.

With 'he three former we do not feel disposed to find a bit of fault, but we must protest, and shall continue to do so agoint the disgraceful cond ; tion of the streets. Every person seems to feel that they have a perfect right to throw all the old rubbish that accumulates around their houses and places of business, into the strf ; an 1 as a consequence, piles of ashes, partially decayed straw, and old leather, line the streets—monuments of the Street Commissioners neglect of du'y. The side-walks along tho lower part of Tioga street are in a per fectly shocking eondit'on—pi inks loose, rotton and in some intan-os entirety gone, so that between Pine street and the aqueduct, there a-e not a dozen lengths of plank in a perfectly sound condition The borough authorities have too long neglected this matter, and if thev are unwilling or in orape tent to perform the duti'S prescribed bv the T.egisla tu'e, it is the du'vof the eitizens to take some steps towards removing them from the position they occu py, or of compelling them to do their duty.

A number of little amiable disens giona occurred, in which some verv convincing and forcible arguments —so-h ns black evs and bloodv noses —were intra luce 1 Among other things Town Talk observed, and which was undoubtedly higblv creditable to the victor, was th's : A man, evidently a returned soldier, ns he still wore the blue, and who was somewhat overcome, by the smiles of oi l comrades, we suppose, stood weaving hack and forth upon the side-walk, apparently ru minating upon their wretched condition, when the enemv hove in view Sai l enemv was armed with a paddle about six feet long, with which, we judge, he intended to throw his opponent into disorder bv making an attack in the rar. But the ol 1 soldier preenting an unbroken front, the "pa Idle cham pion" withdrew a short distance anl threw out some 'ight infantry on the sol iter's left fl auk, for the purpose of creating a diversion. The plan succeed ed admirably, for while engage! with this new en emv, the eollier unwittingly nnooverd his rear, which the enemv immediately took advantage of, nnd the paddle descended with a whack. A quick change of front and a vigerou s charge gave the old soldier possession of the enemy's artillery. But, alas, not content with the success already won, he attempted to pursue the now retreating enemv ; and becoming confuse 1 with the captured artillery, the enemv lurned upon him, and with a we'l-directed fire laid the old sollier low. Recov ring his artil lery, the gallant victor, highly elated, marched tri umphantly away. When we heard that he, a short time after, suffered a severe defeat, we did not feel much like sympathizing with him. Died, LANE.—In Tunkhannoek, Aug. 25, 1865. Robert De Puy, only eon of the Rev. C.
