It would not lie. nniiss to call llie
llemoerney the d'reat Undecided, even
Ti MeClelhin is simmmed the Great
UiueJdy. UVjieatedly it has been
. shown that they aru drugs in every
department of life and business. And
tts the 'churl nnd pruniblcr of every
'day life k despised by the earnest go-head-a-tivc
m;tn,3o let Democraey,so
railed, be avoided by tho.-c who would
build onward ami upward. - The soon
er this loelin;' exists the sooner
"will national troubles subside and
ihe highest pinnacle of prosperity be
obtained. To follow the train of
thought suggested above it is only nee
3sary to read tin art iota on our first
pag3 of to-day entitled, '"What be
comes of Democratic Principles?''
, Still further illustration may be
educed from the recent action of their
StateG'onvention. In twelve resolutions
they perpetrate twelve huge falsehoods
beuring the ear marks of Democracy
from the inception. These twelve
way be split dow n into as many sninll
vr ones as a log of wood would make
thoo-peg.
In the case of Andrew Johnson ts.
,Jhe People of the United .States, they
naturally attempt to vindicate the
cause of the Usurper. Their ideas of
rivil govcrnnient tend in that direc
tion an tourney rather than democra
cy for them. Hut, owing to the fact
that thoy are not yet ready to make
him a candidate for Presidential honors
lie is denied the sweet consolation
of hearing anything concerning the
subject.
They favor the early resumption of
ripecic payment in words, but when
the test comes in legislation are not
yet prepared to take steps in that di
rection, aa witness the votc3 of their
Congressional delegation on all ques
tions oi finance.
Repudiation in it crude state is ig
nored because the bondholding, auti
Pendleton wing of the party "can't
sco it in those lamps" just yet. Hence
n decline in Pendleton Presidential '
stock. But, they cannot forego their
propensity to steal and undercover of
taxing the bonds espect to depreciate
the credit of the Government and
eventually hoist the debt overboard,
and let it go to the crafty sharks who
are ever ready to coin dollars out of
others calamities.
They "recognize with emotions of
deepest gratitude the efforts of the gal
lant volunteer soldiery, etc.," by nom
inating Chas. E, Uoylc, a stay-at-home
Democrat, for Auditor General,
over Col. W. H. H. Davis a wounded
soldier; nnd would have done the
same by disposing of Gen. Ent, oniy
giving him Iwctve votes for Treasurer
on first ballot, had not expediency
overruled pplccn. Doubtless they
main to recognize soldiers but the
time is not yet and will only be when
forced upon them.
A love for the foreigner is professed
liut how deep and how lasting is shown
in the recent exposure of frauds in the
21st District, aud their murder of
Casey an Irishman who having per
formed their -will was compelled by
the law to lay bare their villiany. Ir
ishmen should stick a pin there.
Evidently in a quandary, Democ
racy hesitatingly advances step by
step, accepting the ground long since
abandoned by Republicans. "A stern
chase is a long one!" nnd wo ven
ture no prediction as to the probable
length of time it will take for thera to
get up with us.
COI.OXIZIXG.
". In obedience to thecoramand of Mr.
Wallace, Chairman of tho Domocratio
State Central Committee,' the Demoo
r.t?y have imported five or six voters
into our borough to vote next Friday.
This species of fraud is easily practiced
in cities where the registry laws are
not in force and where men are
strangers in a general sense, but here
w a community where all arc well
known, to attempt it . shows up
the high-handed and cowardly sub
terfuges resorted to by them to attain
their onds. , Before the votes of the
aforesaid gontlcmon are deposited they
will be require to swear to the fol
lowing.' " We iquote from tho" election
laws:- : V;
"In all casos. where Uie name of th
pcrson claiming to vote.JS. found on
the list fiimsiea by tli Commission
ers and Assessor or hja right to ..vote,
whether . fouatl thereon or,' pot, :
objected to- by y Aoalifcd axukd,
it ibiQ b the duty w the- inspectors
to examine such person on oath as 40
his qualifications, and if he claims to
nave resided within the. State for one
year or more, his oath shall not be suf
ficient proof thereof, but he shall make
proof thereof by at least one compe
tent witness, who shall be a qualified
elector, that he lias resided within the
district for moro than ten days next,
preceding said election, and shall also
himself a wear that his bona fldo resi
dence, in pursuance of his lawful call
ing, is within the district, and that he
did not remove into said district for th
parose of voting therein."
If the parties we have in mind, can
subscribe to the foregoing it will be a
case of hard swearing, and the judge
and inspectors it men ot backbone and
conscientiousness, win nave uimcuity
in their decision. It is a question "if
their mothers know thov 're nut !" vr-t.
if they want to risk a short trip "over
the river" to the stone mansion not
"in the skits," lot them swear and
vote. Our Inwicls throughout the
county should keep n sharp eye on
lik proceedings in their own town
ships. If possible let no illegal votes
be polled.
In speaking of the next Republican
candidate for Congress in this District
the M-wiiyv of last week, says "we
can have no preference niuongour po
litical opponents nnlfss it be our forty-second
cousin of the press, the wor
thy sire of our 'better looking' neigh
bor neighbor over the way." Now,
wo hear that the editor of the Messen
ger once gave his influence to a forty
second cousin and got him into tronb
ble by voting for Simon Cameron, a
Know Nothing candidate for U. S.
Senator, against his own party, and we
would advise him not to meddle with
outsiders anymore, and thereby avoid
suspicion.
ri'TTixu tiii.i4 Di r or night.
The New York Tribune of a late
date, fires hot shot directly into the
magazine of the enemy. It says 5 lie
was an extremely judicious gentleman
who proposed lately in New-Hamp
shire, in the course of a Democratic
slump Bpeech, to remove either by
fire, burial, or otherwise, all evidence
of the Rebellion, including our bat-
tlcflags, tho tomb-stones, of our dead
soldiers, and all one-legged and one
armed warriors foi the Union who still
survive. This procc.3 of reducing
history to oblivion is a natural one in
tho minds of men who obtained ijrno-'
miny alone during tbe great contest.
Tho popular memory is too long and
too active either for their comfort or
convenience, and trophies of patriotism
uk1 of va,,,r cau rAy bo agreeable
to those who ha 1 110 share in winning
them. The fatuity, however, of these
sensitive gentlemen does not seem to
comprehend that they are themselves
living meineutoes of the war, and that
under their system of sweeping all un
pleasant reminders out of sight, it
might be necessary to hang them as
well as their more loyal neighbors.
They exert a kind of negative snggcs
tivcucss. While they live, everybody
will remember our battles in which
they took no part, our victories over
which they mourned, and our defeats
over which they rejoiced. It will be
tunc enough to eonoiuer tlieir proposi
tion when they set thoexamplcbydisap
pearing" from tho world. Ilistory,hov
rvcT,does not depend lor its perpetu
ation altogether upon records or upon
relics. If all the copies of Mr. Bu
chanan's book should be burned, all
the smoke of the sacrifice would not
preserve his reputation from its pre
destinate taint. Although every monu
nisnt to the memory of Mr. Lincoln
should bo pulled down, his murder
would still be a public grief and afire
side horror. There is no fumigation
which can remove the smell of blood
from the military prisons of the con
federcy. There is no sophistry which
can cheat the children of martyred he
rocs out of the legacy of ancestral self
devotion. There is no intention on
tho part of this Republic of forgetting
tho names of those who gave their
live to save it. The memorials which
wc have raised to thein arc but the
smallest tokens of our gratitude. If
tho New-Hampshire gentleman is ac
quainted with any process by which
events comprehending the destiny of
nations can be swept out of the rec
ollection of mankind, he will deserve
well of his party if ho will but confide
to it his precious secret. If he knows
of any device by which millions of
emancipated serfs cau be restored to
slavery, ho may succeed in destroyinjr
the noblest monument of tho war. If
he can transmute the base metal of
treason into tho precious gold of loyal
ty ; if ho can prove public virtue to be
but a name, and falsity to solemn
oaths a venial misdemeanor he will win
immortal honor by . reversing . that
whole system of. morality which at
preseut enjoya the respect of the hu
man' race. -
When the Democratic orators talk
of forgiveness we are ready to listen
to them, for forgiveness is a manly
and a Christian duty ; but when they
ask us to forget, they make a demand
to which, without abdicating our man
hood it is impossible to acceed. Is
there anything to be ashamed of in the
strugglea of the Republic to preserve
itself that theatuens of the Kepublio
Uc "Sggynesburg
should banish them from recollection?
Was it & good deed to rsbel ? Was it
a bad one to encounter ami suppress
rebellion ? The people of Kew
Hampshire had their opiuion upon
these questions during the war, nnd
have they any reason to change that
opinion? Chauncey ISurr say they
have, and so says' Franklin Pierce,
and so says Henry Clay lean. Pray,1
what has occured to make New-llamp-shire
alter her mind? No soldiers
were lwaver on the battle-field than,
the soldiers of that State, and hero
comes a treutlcman by tint significant
name of Burr, ami tells them that they
were fighting for nothing, and that
lite South really conquered them,
Kyhile another gentleman jwojioses to
burn alt tlieir battle Hags, and to Uo-
molish the tombstone ot their eornpan
"' "' "Pn the field of honor i A
very curious way this of winning votes
although it seems to bo based upon the
assumption that New-Hampshire sol
dier left hhi brains at the South, and
j came home non eompea ntentu), and-ro
joicing in spurious and delusive glory.
.these are arguments to oiler to men
who skulked, or men who deserted, to
'cowards and to bounty jumpers, and
not to those who served honorably and
and valiantly. Having been tried in
in New-Hampshire, they will next be
tried m Connecticut, and upon n
broader anil more general scale during
the Presidential canvass. They show
a sort of bad candor, for w hich we are
duly grateful, and which we have
nothing to fear.
A lOHRElT POSITION.
The N. Y. Tribune says : "When
ever the Republican party, or any other
party sees fit to advertise in the
Tribune we expect pay thcrefor,though
we frequently make deductions when
our own party is the customer." ' This
is tho correct position for a newspaper
to take. We hold that a party journal
is bound by its good faith to advocate
tho principles and support tho candi
dates of the party, but when it uses
the advertising space of a paper for
its own purpose, it becomes a matter
of business, and the party should be
charged as any other customer, Then,
on settlement days, if tho proprietors
of tho journal choose to abate a part,
or all of tho account, that is their
business. A party has no legitimate
claim upon its newspaper, except that
itshall sustain its principles and tickets
editorially. Advertising meetings,
Ac., is quite another thing. We have
adopted this as our platform in the
coming campaign, and shall "light it
on that lino 1"
A largk majority of tho delegates
chosen to the State Convention to
meet on tho 1 1th, are instructed to vote
Grant for President and A. G. Curtin,
for Vice President. The unanimity
expressed for Curtiu for Vice Presi
dent in the "Old Keystone," points to
him as a formidable candidato for the
honor of tho nomination to that high
office by tho Union Republican Na
tional Convention. We know of
none better, more capable, or sclf-do-
scrving. 1 cnnsylvania will not acquit
herself until sho bestows yet higher
honor on her most respected cx- Gov
ernor.
Tun suppression of indecent pic
torials in some of our cities, has sug
gested a new field wherein the corrupt
in heart and vitiated in morals aro
working and pandering to the vulgar
mind. Democratic papers, so-called,
have taken up the cue, and from the
venal press of the city we sec the ball
returned by the least respectable of
the country journals of that caste.
This artistio fondness for creating
lewd and wicked thoughts among the
class named is alike reprehensible in
both classes ofjournalist3,alikeshocking
to good taste and chaste manners.
Would it not be well if Democratic
journalists cannot regulate the matter
by common sense for tho authorities to
interfere ?
Surratt'b trial has been postponed
to the next term, at the request of the
prosecution, and is likely to go over

I'KOn PHILADELPHIA.
Philadelphia, Mach 4, 1868.
During the impeachment excite
ment of the last few days the daily
papers have reaped a harvest. Their
bulletin boards were covered with ex
clamation points resembling lines of
soldiers standing on their heads, and
suggesting to the crowds who stopped
to read, a country again 111 arms,
Notwithstanding the loud display pf
the boards, and the louder yells of the
newsboys it was evident that tho agi
tation was only on the surface. But
few believed thatany serious difficulty
would occur. That unerring barome
terof public feeling the gold market
remained steady . throughout the
turmoil.' The paper which had the
most editions and presented tbe most
startling ; head lines, had the largest
"ran. The sale of a paper, depends
very -much on the-laconic headings
which give the cue to the newsboys.
On a cold morning one of these enter
prising youngsters was found crying as
if his heart would break. A gentle
epubiicnn, ISJebnesiJaji, HUcxvch 11, -1868.
man atopped to know the cause. ' The
bo said thaUe could fat' sell ahj
papers,' Why not ? ' '"Cause I liaiut
got nothing to holler," was the doleful
reply,. So it was; Ho had a staid
morning paper which never has dis
play lines, so that the littlo fellow was
dumb while his comrades vjth the
flashy sensation headings were making
the streets ring, and ass a consequence,
selling all the papers. Since it is
evident that the Semite will "make

New York City has been designat
ed as the place of holding the Demo
emtio National Convention, and the
fourth day of July the time. This
and other cities claimed tho honor nnd
had many good reasons and induce
nients to offer. It is now felt that
New York will control the nominations.-
Mr. Pendleton's friends are
somewhat discouraged. Pennsylvania
nnd New York will pull together.
Thq Soldiers' and Sailors' Convention,
which was organized at Clcvelaud,
will hold a National Meeting also, in

The merits of Dickens, who has just
finished his readings here, are still dis
cussed with animation. A few placo
him beyond all approval in excellence,
others declare that ha is a great hum
bug. Our impression, when Mr.
Dickens appeared before the audience,
was that of disappointment.'' ; An air
of cflort was very nnnarcnt In 'his
movements j his voic-3 was hars'i
husky and weak j his gestures were
awkward and intonation had jlosing
so often on the rising inflection that ho
bscamo monotonous. Still, in spite of
his violation of the rules of elocution,
he enlisted tho sympathies of his hear
ers. Ho conveyed to them a vivid
picture of his characters mil seamed
to elicit for each its appropriate sensa
tion. So we must say, judging by
the rules of art, Mr. Dickens iswoful
ly deficient, but measuring him by tho
etleet produced, he is a master. Again,
his performance is not properly a
"reading," it is a recitation of the most
salient passages of his numerous novels,
and we think that the same stories
stripped of their verbosity and co n
pressed to the compass of tho text
which ho himself uses, Would be
equally effective 011 the printed page.
There are scores of novels whose inci
dents, condensed and recited after the
manner of Diekcus, would prove as
interesting as any of his vaunted pro
ductions. Ho is working his way
Northward aud Westward. Ho reads
in Syracuse on the ninth of March.
Tliore is great activity in the church
es of all denominations, but the
Methodists seem to take tho lead.
The Mclhodiit Home JownaLthe local
organ here, is crowded with revival
items every week. A deep religious
fecliugpervadcs the community. More
than iittv were converted during the
past week at the Cohocksink Presby
terian Church, and so it is every where.
Lent, which has now commenced, will
add to this seriousness. The strife
between the Northern and Southern
branches of the M.E. Church claims a
large share of attention. An eminent
Methodist divine gave it as his opiuion,
that the branch South would die out
or be abolished. It was based 011 the
supposition that tho. South never
heartily accuucscd in t.:e division of:
18 H.and that many, who of necessity
had worshiped with that branch, now,
that opportunity is given, will return
to their first love. He also claimed
that thero was no longer a motive to
sustain a distinct organization, so that
efforts to do so, would bo feeble and
fruitless, while tho iSortliern branch
was taking vigorous steps to occupy
tho ground. U'o give these views for
what they are worth.

tion of all States to the enjoyment of

cent attempt of the legislative branch
of the Government to usurp the pow
er of tho executive nnd to destroy the
independence of the Judiciary, aro de

tho overthrow of the Government it

3. Deprecates Radical taxation.
' 4. Charges responsibilty on tho Re
publican party for delay in the restora
tion of the States. - '
0. That in enacting tho tenure of
ofliee law tho legislative and execu
tive branches of the Government, each
for itself had the right to judge of Its
constitutionality i that in so execisinir
the right, the executive was but obey
ing that portion ot his oath . of otlieo
which requires hiui to prcservo protect
and defeud tho Constitution of the

of every branch of tho Government
and of every citizen to have questions
involving the constitutionality of any
law speedily adjudged by the Supreme
Court of tho United States, and of all
tho peoplo to have said derision en
forced. '
6. That the impending impeach
ment of the President of the United
States is a gross aud reckless abuse of
partisan power, without justifiable
cause, nnd intended for tho attainment
of party purposes at the sacrifice of
the most vital interests oi tho country.
7. Urging a return toa speeiebusis,

The expansion of our trade and the
return of former commercial activity
aro indispensablo to our continued
vitality as a nation. "Without it all
legislative contrivances ibr reducing
our burdens can avail nothing. We
have heard the question of resumption
and tho schemes for adjusting- tho
currency discussed from every conceiv
able stand-pointof financial ingenuity ;
but any measure adopted, however
wise, can never bo one-half so potent
ns tlint simple productive power which
grows with our annual growth nnd
expands with the development of our
resources. It wc take tho history of
the past fiftoen years ns a guide, wc
hall readily perceive that tune alone
may accomplish all that is required to
remedy present evils. Following the
like ratio of progress, tho present
redundant volume of the currency
will all be absorbed by the business of
the country at the end of fiftoen years.
A nation, like an individual, can only
work his way out of debt by the slow
process of developing tho value of his
property. Fifteen years hence our
greatly expanded resources, our in
creased productive power, aud the
greater volume of our products seeking
exchange, will bring the value olgold
and paper-money to a closeapproxima
tion. Besides, our present annual
gold product of $100,000,000 would
of itself nearly suffice to pay off the
national debt in fifteen years. The
volume of our currency will rest upon
no doubtful basis then, and resumption
must come naturally nnd nccesssarily if
not accomplished sooner by extraneous
means , but so loug as tho currency
continues disproportionate to the com
mercial necessities of the country, we
must suffer financial disturbance.
Any decided improvement in trado is
therefore to be hailed as a sulistantial
advance made toward the final accom
plishment of the ' great national
purpose. ' y, , ,.

Decreaveiu Hvvenue.
The decrease, in revenue receipts for
this year will evidently lUI 1 fur slort
of the lowest official estimates even
without considering tho exemptions
promised to various interests. The
total receipts for three months of the
present fiscal year were 50,370,000,
against $90,-151,000 of the corres
ponding period last year, a decrease of
$40,075,000, which was evidently not
mainly attributed to decrease in some
mte3 of taxation under the law of last
session, inasmuch as the loss was chief
ly in articles 011 which the rates were
maintained, ns on petroleum, w hich in
three months paid fj;JO,000 against
1,004,000 in tho corresponding
quarter of the proceeding year, and
distilled spirits, whiuh in tho same
three months, paid only $.1,577,000
against $0,1 8 1,000 for a like poriod
of the last fiscal year. It is evident
that only wise nnd timely legislation
can save the internal revenuo from
virtual extinction.
A New Orleans dispatch, dated
Thursday, says that tho Republican
State Commit too of Louisiana, in n
meeting to-night, resolved that they
were in sympathy with Congress in its
efforts to enforce tho laws and compel
public officers, even the President
himself to obey them ; that the cheers
which were given for Jefferson Davis,
and the simultaneous recognition of
General Hancock by the rebel fire
companies yesterday", were insulting
to the flag of our country and to the
brave spidicrs w ho fought to defend
it; that we recommend to Congress
and General Grant, tho immediate
removal of General Hancock, and that
we regard cheers for Jeff Davis by the
same men, a sufficient reason for re-

could poll onchalf of the registered vote.
Our friends at the North must stand
by us now 111 our hour of trial. It
requires a stout heart for a loyal man
to livo here. If the Stale should be
admitted into the Union, I would re

star.c.s tho life of no Northern man
would be safe, nnd no power save that

IhiOTHEii D. is a great politician.
He is up often and lato in night cau
cuses, spends much time and money
to carry out party schemes, and is
3uite uncharitable toward those who
o not see as he docs. He is often
absent from the sanctuary on tho Sab
bath, never at the prayer meeting, and
very seldom at a church meeting. Yet
ho complains that "politics is mining
the church." Whoso polities? Cum-
bei'land Presbyterian.
Ay Exchange observes that Mr.
Pendleton's views on the greenback
question have essentially chadged
since tbe bill to authorizo their issue
was first under discussion in Congress.
In the course of that debate, Mr.
Pendleton said : "You send these notes
into the world stamped with irredecm
ability. You put on them the mark
of Cain, and like Cain will go forth to
bo Vagabonds and fugitives on the
earth." It is, nevertheless, with this
irredeemable currency that Mr Pen
dleton proposes to pay the publio
debt. - v, . : r ,; ,. , ,, .
