WA1 KEillL'hO, l'KN'SA. Velnetlny, Jan. H, ! OS. IsSUEM or 18SS. Hon. O. P. Morton, of Indiana, nt vt' nr ilia .lint ult.. in the 1 1 uaiuuiuu vi - i course of powerful address on the present political status and the wants : of the day, said: The struggle, therefore, on the part of the Democratic party, North and South, a3 1 have spoken will be in 18G8, for the restoration of these State3 into rebel hands and the administration of tie ftB'ai vs of the States on that Lasi3. If you are prepared to say that blacks and loyal white men are to lie turned over to the rebels, then vote the Democratic ticket. Hut if yon are in favor of impartial suffrage, and giving rights to black and white, then vote the liepublican ticket. There are numerous other questions wrapt up in these leading ideas I have announced. The firstone I shall men tion is the payment tor slaves emanci pated during' the war. And though this has not been declared as yet to be a question of the Usuo, I am as firmly convinced it is to lie as though I read it in the written platform of the Demo cratic party. The States'of Maryland and Kentucky liave already provided 'for this, in anti cipation of the success ofthe Democratic pnrtv at their next election. Here Mr. Morton read worn the Constitution of the State of Maryland, and from a report of the proceedings ofthe Ken tucky State legislature, to substantiate the statement made Georgia has alw provided for this ; and although other Southern States may be silent on this subject, they will be "ready to meet the qnwtion when it is time. The Democratic party of the South will be a unit on the uuextion ; and now let me show that the Democratic party of the Xorth arc, ready to meet them. I base my assertion on the fact that the members of this party voted without a single exception, against the amendments when they were before Congress, and Democratic newspapers have denounced those amendments with one voice ; so it is safe to say that in the issue the Northern wing will concede to the South everything claim ed by them, ami if tlrev do not, their action will bo very different froinwhat it has been in years pa-t ; for I never knew of a demand ma le by the South that was not readily conceded by the Northern portion of that party. &h"uld the Democratic party come into power, the payment tor the slaves emancipated may lie considered a settled fact. You remember when the question was up in Congress to abolish slavery in 1SU2, and again in 18C1, the Demo cratic members in both Houses were then united in favor of paying for every slave emancipated, and it was denounc ed as morally wrong to take a slave even from a rebel, nud not fairly com pensate the owner for the loss; and I say again, this question is inevitably involved in the general issues of 1SC8. Another question is involved, that will follow ju.it as certain, and that is the assumption and payment of the rebel war debt. I ask you as reason ing and thinking men wheu the repre sentatives of the Soulli arc admitted to Congress, and rrc called upon to vote upon appropriation bills, do you think they would vote to tax themselves fur our debt and not provide fortheirown? The Northern States staked their; financial power in the (Jovcrni.ient bonds, and the. South risked all she had in the prosecution of the war, and lost all ; and you may expect in the advent of the IXjinoeratie party into power, that .'provision will.be made for the payment of that d 'l.t ) but I am glad to say tliat not -until then will it be thought of. r. -. . - . The Ddniccratiu party were oppos d to oar debt being contracted in, its in cipioncy, and you may remember that a prominent member of that party warned the people not to buy ..the bondrf, as 'they would prove worthless on their hands. They were hostile then to the debt, as the Southern wing ofthe Democratic' party are now to being compelled to help pay it. So that the demand on their part to tax the people for the payment of the debt of the South will be as surely conceded as the demand is made. I come to another issue that is also involved in the contest ; tho pension ing of rebel ,soIdiM, and tlic widows nudjOrphans of those who tell .fighting .,ot the . rebel lion,1 Does not the present ntute of affair in Maryland indicate the w.l!..r. M-kiuli iioimili airnmcr. t.liA ftrtl- diers who were members of regiments in the 'Union army?. Can a Union soldier be be elected to any office? Is Ir not proscribed in business aiid soci- ' cty? i-ask if Union men, who are lawyers or' physicians, find any uc- cess in tho practice cf their profession? Are thpy not lit-oseriborr on-accourit of their sentiments? Does not the- Same' Sunday Schools of each Church, in the uondition of affairs exist in Kentucky? I shape of bon-bons, fruits and sub I see hero to-night a gentleman who st.uai catilye3. can ten you aoout tnat mucu Detter than I who knows from experience end observation what the feeling is there. Rebels, and rebels only are elected" to office.'' Tho presence of Union men is no whore tolerated, but their position is mado uncomfortable and if possible to rid the State of their ' presence. ; - Sir, if you give the power of reeon- tion into the handsof rebels, you may expect the same condition of allnirs in nil tho Southern States. 1 And ' you may ask what do I argue from all tins. I will tell yon. ; When the Democrat ic, party gets into power, do you sup pose ' tho representatives from the South will vote for tensioning the sol diers ami widows of tho North, una riot provide for their own in the South ? Is it human nature, I ask, for men to do such' things ? And when you bring them power, their rebel soldiers will as surely he placed on the same footing witb'the Union soldiem of She North. This question, then, I say, is involved in the Laucs of the coming campaign. The point I make here to-night is tho inevitable consequence of the Dem ocratic pariy coming into power, home men may like the policy ot tno party and vote for it solely on that account but lot them remember that they are voting to elevate tho rebel soldiers to the panic position m those who fought to preserve the Union. The great questions of the campaign in 1808 aw, then, I repeat, tho main tenance of this Government, tho jus tice ofthe war, or tho right of the rebellion. And thane are the questions which are to be decided : 1868 is to determine whether this Government is to remain in the hands ofthe Union men or to be allowed to pass into the hands of Southern men. At the beginning of this New Year we have nothing especial to record in the history of our country. Europe has had its war tremors and the severe shake at Salowa mado Austria a con firmed cripple. France dealt the brave Garibaldi a foul stroke, crushing the life out of Italian liberty fr years to come. Turk and Greek are yet lock ed in deadly embrace, marly all have experienced the gripe of armed con tention in the Old World, and south of us on our own continent the din of battle ha3 hardly ceased. Marked by distrust and doubt alone the Old Year with us dragged its slow length along, and it is a relief to bury it with the deadTasi. Contrasted with former years, pcrb.ips, a superficial glance would not discover wherein it materi ally differed. Commerce and trade seem active, enterprise has discovered new fields, stupendous works have been forwarded and completed, all the same as heretofore, with a considerable stride in the world of art and science. IV.it, for all this there has been nn under-current that retarded greatly the social, financial an I political tide that should have swept us to a higher place beyond the reach of disturbing elements. Six years of civil strife left huge gaps in the structure that bound tho sections together, which the present generation will hardly see rebuilt with fornix solidity. Unfortunately for tho South and the country nt large, the duplicity of the Chief Executive ! and the designing motives of n, crush ed power in a party that for some in scrutable purpose has been allowed to raise iU blood crested head, by a sinngc fascination p-jrmit themselves to be used as willing instruments lor their own torture. They have taught them to appeal to tho power that op posed the war for redress in their imaginary wrongs, nn irrelevant and tVlusive idea existing that the Ameri can people intend to yet abandon the country to treason's demand. When once this phantasm is banished from their miinls,as it will be in the coming October, wc shall have a revival in business and a better feeling in society. Know, then, that here lies the remedy. Gird yourselves anew for tho contest and with the same leader that led our barallions in bluo to victory we will move upon tho enemy to conquer. The cheers of willingness have gone up from every part of the line from Mahic to California and time and sig nal are only wanting for the mighty host to achieve another victory scarce ly less important than that which passed the rebellion into history. ' ,' J10I.IOAYS. For many years there has not been a season such as that just passed, tem pered with a degree of dullness equal to the last. Shop-keepers and grocery men did not do the lively business they were wont to, and Santa Claus consequently betrayed a woful parsi lconiousnese. Ia our belief the people are becoming economical and not. so cnthusiastio as formerly oVer glittering displays, pure 'or tinsel. Hereaway, nothing marked tho anniversaries but tho snapping of Chinese crackers and the early din of the calithunipJans. Fox hunting was the rural sport. New Years day was made the occasion of a pleasant tjmo'at tho Presbyterian and Cumberland Presbyterian Church-J i cs. A handsome treat was given the v. Tin: Legislature convened on the 7th inst. A Free Rrailroad Law is the only 'important 'measure before that body at present. They are pledg ed to give the State the benefit of this measure, and its early passage is de manded. They who vote against it will conmut political suicide and de servedly bo consigned to oblivion. Anson Buelingame, American Minister in Clwna has been appointed by that empire as their embassador to the treaty-making 'powers of Europe. It is considered a high compliment to our nation, and will greatly advance our sommercial interests in the Celes tial domains- STKc lgucsburjf' .'Republican, 'efcnes&aij, cmicatrg 8, 1888.

A letter from Niagara Falls, gives the following description of the re markable phenomena of low water at the Falls and elsewhere: "Thursday last was a wonderful day in the annals of tho Niagara Falls. Tho strong easterly gale sent the water ot Lake Erio westward, leaving tho Niagara river and its tributaries lower than wero ever known before. Buffalo creek was so low that all the vessels in it were grounded, and Niagara Falls was a rivulet compared with its native grandeur. The bed ol the American branch was so denuded that you could travel in its rockv bed without wet ting your feet, and mysteries that were never betore revealed came to light on that day. Rocks that were heretofore invisible appeared in their lull grown deformity upon the surface, and great was the consternation among the rinny tribes. The Three Sisters were accessible to foot paesengers, aud many traversed where human foot had never trod, with perlect impuni ty nnd dry feet. Below the Falls was the wonder of wonders. The water was full twenty feet lower than usual, and the oldest inhabitant gazed in won der at tho grand transformation. Near Suspension bridge the celebrated rock'at Witmer's mill, upon which a drowning man caught and was rescu ed several years ago, which barely pro jects its head above the water, was laid bare twenty feet above the ser- laee. ' An Alabama letter says : Tho Con vention passed an ordinance staying executions, but Gen. Pope will not or has not issued an order making it effec tive, and the officials are cvery-where busy levying upon property and boast ing that the United States authority has no power over them or over anything they please to do. Many of these ex ecutions are for debts for Confederate money, for hire of slaves set free by the operation of war, and for fourth- coming bonds forslaves, whom it wasof course impossible to produce, 1 lie whole State is bankrupt by the action of Alabama judges in enforcing such obligations, and the intended operation ofthe Stay law, to prevent persecution until such cases could be revised by a newly elected judiciary is not only de feated for the want of an enforcing order from Gen. Pope, but tho know ledge that such nn ordinance is impending quickens every oppressor into activity, and property is everywhere ruthlessly sacrificed. Every widow nnd orphan is impov erished by the action of Probate Judges in allowing executors, administrators, and guardians to come into Court and pay their fiduciary debts with Confed erate money notoriously, in many cases, obtained for this express purpose after it had become worthless. Instan ces are reported, upon good authority, in whieh the same batch of worthless trash has done duty over and over again in successive settlements of this character. Convention essayed to nut a stop to such settlements by nn ordin ance, and to authorize such as had been made to reopened ; but this ordinance is also inoperative, because rebel judges refuse to recognize its validity, and Gen. Pope neglects to issue an order for its enforcement. ON THE ALEUT. Mr. Wallace, the efficient Chair man of the Democratic State Commit tee, has inued the following Circular Circular 1, 18G8 Private.

Clearfield, December 10, Dear Sir: Tho spring elections are approaching, and it is ot vital im portnnce to us, in the great contest uow pending, that we should secure in entry locality our just share ofthe elec tion officers judges, inspectors, asses sors, and constables. I write to call your especial attention to this subject. I need not attempt to demonstrate its importance ; all appreciate if. Let me beg thaty ou and your committeo will give this sulyect prompt nnd earnest attention. Regard it as a business matter and act accordingly. Arouse our friends in every district j show them how powerful this weapon is when eflecually used. Use the nec essary means to carry every sure and douhtful district for us: Where wc are in the minority, place a man of high character, well informed and cour ageous on the board-as our inspector; in such disiricts, see that oiir best men arc selected. It is a great error to fill such places with weak men. Lists of doubtful men, and those who voted with us in . 1867, for the first time, with their townships and port-offices can be made very useful. Furnish me all of these that you can obtain. There are a ereat manv aliens ready for naturalization throughout the State; all must be naturalized. Your labors and mine must bo lessened, if you will obtain their names and residences at an early day. and cive me the total num ber in your county r with the probable cost of naturalizing them. In arranging for your spring elec tions, you can obtain tins intormation with comparative case. If you have not already furnished me with the names and post-office ad dress of two active Democrats in each election district in your county, I will be obliged if you will do so. Very respectfully yours, -William A. Wallace, Chairman. The Pittsburg Gazette remarks: This looks like work.

Says the HarrisbuVar TekartmhAt Is now very clearly established as the policy ot f resident Johnsoh.thateverv Commanding General, South who faithfully administers she reconstruc tion law of Congress must go and give place to some pliant tool of the Executive. It is the evident purpose of the President that reconstruction shall, if possible be defeated. He does not want it neither do his most Inti mate political friends, the Democrats. intend to have it if they can make an instrument ot turn to prevent it. Whether it is possible to accomplish this by suspending General Ord with General McDowelI,4,and Pope with General Meade, and the dismissal ct General Swayue from the Bureau of Refugees, remains to be seen. The ef fect may be to embarrass "and impede reconstruction but we do not believe it in the power of Johnson to defeat it. The work will go forward to perfection and the President nud his Democratic advisors will have the chagrin and mortification of witnessing its ac complishment in spite of their hostile efforts. The Democrats do not want the Government reconstructed except upon the basis of rebel ascendency, any more than they wanted thethe rebels de feated in their effort to destroy the Government. Their sympathies are in tho same direction now as then Important to Exwtilnr. Administrator!, Truatvew, 4c. In a circular addressed to the U. S.

Santa Anon Again. Some time ngo, everybody thought old Santa Anna was effectually "played out," but there seems to be life in the old chap yet. Intelligence reaches us that a new insurrection in favor of Santa Anna has broken out in Yucatun which appenre tobestipported by many former officers of the old Empire, it seems almost incredible that the cx- Dictntor, who but a few weeks ngo, barely escaped with his liie, should once more disturb the peace of his native country, lhere is, we believe, not the least cliRnce ofthe suwess ofthe move ment ; nnd if the old General is caught alive on Mexican territory, ho will probably not be let oil as easily as the last timo.
