All men everywhere who are oppos ed to committing the destinies of 30 MILLIONS OF WHITE MES to 800,000 xEG HO VOTERS, all whoare opposed to Xegrn legislators, Xegro Judges and Negro Jurors in Pennsylvania. and especially those brave men who perilled Life and Limb to defend and uphold the Government of their Fath ers, and not to create a new nation in which the Xegro is to be our social and political equal, are invited to attend. Toe Crisis of our Country's Destiny is upon us. Fne patriot Andrew John son tells you that the traitors, Thaddeus .Stevens and Cnarles Sumner, are try ing to destroy our system of Govern ment-, the Government that Washing ton and Jefferson gave us, the best Gov ernment the world ever saw, and to establish in its place a Consolidated Despotism, controlled by New England fanaticism. "CONSOLIDATION IS AS DANGEROUS AS SECESSION." — Andrew Johnson. The most distinguished Democrats and Conservative Statesmen of the country will be present and address tiie Convention. The President and the Union mem bers of the Cabinet have been invited. Excursion Tickets will he issued on all the Railroads. By order of the Democratic State Central Committee. J. D. DAVIS, Chairman Democratic Standing Com mi Tee of Berks County. WM. ROSENTHAL, President Democratic City Club of Reading. Democratic papers are requested to copy. COL. MCCLITU: has employed Mrs. Swi—helm as a correspondent for his paper. Judging from the Repository's fear of President Johnson, we had thought that there was sufficient old grannyisin in that paper without the addition of the twaddle of that misera ble old scold, Mrs. Svvisshelm. But termagants like Anna Dickinson and Jane G. Swisshelm furnish the ideas of the Thad. Stevens faction, and the"Re publican" party of the present day is emphatically under petticoat govern ment. SOME districts have not yet moved in the way of getting subscribers to the "Campaign Climber." We will send specimen copies of the first issue to ev ery township and bbrough and hope that 110 district will btiwiUjuut a dub dfrafcicaabß>. TKE W HITE WAN'S LIBERTY VINDI VATED! The Supreme Court Derides that no Wmi enn he deprived of Uitlsenship. AS a "Deserter." until he shall have been Tried and Convicted of Desertion S Thus Falls the last Drop of Disunion Abolition Tyranny! Shout. Boys. For We've Got "Em ! W'e hate met the Enemy and they are ours! The Supreme Court of this State in ; session at Wiikesbarre, on the 20th inst., affirmed the decision of his Honor. Judge King, of this Judicial District, in the ease of Iluber vs. Rankin, the issue being whether a Judge of Elec tion can refuse to receive the votes of citizens "marked" as "deserters." It will be remembred that Judge King decided that Judges of Election are 1 bound to receive the votes of such per sons, on the ground that they (the lat ter) had n°ver been tried and convicted of desertion before the proper tribunal, and that no citizen could be deprived j of life, liberty or property, except by I due course of law, upon a trial before a jury of his peers. The Supreme Court, jin affirming this decision of Judge ! King, have but given us another proof that an upright judiciary i> the surest safe-guard of the constitutional rights of the people. Malignant legislatures may trample their own constituents under their feet; partizan governors may attempt to rob the people (whose agents they are) of the dearest rights the law has left to mail; but, the Judi ciary, sitting far above the reach of the beggarly influences which move politi i cians and demagogues, comes to the rescue and delivers the people from the grasp of those who would oppress them. In the name of liberty, let us thank the pure and fearless judges who dared to proclaim the rights of the people as against their would-be oppressors. Th is is no party victory. It is the triumph of the great principle which underlies our whole political fabric. It is the re assertion of the great doctrine that un-; der our Republican form of Govern ment, no citizen can be deprived of his constitutional right*, without due pro cess of law and a trial by a jury of his peers. It matters not which party gains by it. The principle is what we contended for and the success of the j principle, is what we exult over. e helped to tight the battle for the sake of the rights of "Republicans" as well as Democrats. There are, perhaps, nearly a hundred "Republican" voters in this county, who would have been disfranchised, had the demagogues who lead the so-called "Republican" party, succeeded in their infernal purpose. They would have been no better than negroes, to-day, if the men who control their party had had their own way. But the right has triumphed and white men are still white men, in spite of the Negro Congress, our malignant Legis lature and —Gov. Curtin. A I KU It I'l'OS THE PEOPI.E. A most important change Is propos ed to be made in the fundamental law of the Republic. Congress has submit ted to the State Legislatures an amend ment to the Constitution, which, if a dopted, will change the basis of popu lar representation in Congress and will give the blacks the right of suf frage. These are momentous issues and ought to be fairly, reasonably and thoroughly considered by the people.— Should the amendment referred to be come a part of the Constitution, the frame-work of our government will he materially changed. Yet demagogues like Gov. Curtin and the Radicals in Congress are now striving to forestall the judgment of the people, by hav ing the old legislatures, elected with out reference to the questions involved in the amendment, pass upon this all important subject. Shall the people l>e thus defrauded? Shall the Constitu tion Ih' amended in its most vital part, our government altered in its great feature of popular representation, our Republican system risked in the hands ; of a new class of voters, without con sulting the people, the source of all governmental authority in this coun try? Let Gov. Curtin and his Radi- I eal gubernatorial co-workers try this ! business if they dare. If they and all who side with them in such a fraud upon the people, do not sink to the lowest depth of political infamy, then there remains neither self-respect, nor sense of justice? in the popular under ! standing. THE last hope of the Disunionists is gone. They had fondly expected to carry Pennsylvania by disfranchising enough voters to give their ticket a majority. The Supreme Court has spoiled that little game and Pennsylva nia will now repudiate them by 20,000 | majority. IT is estimated that if Gov. Curtin should call an extra session of the Leg islature, for the purpose of ratifying the proposed Negro Suffrage amend ment to the Constitution, the job will cofct the Stsato tliL neat little jum of DISUNION COUNTY CONVENTION. The Thad-ite faction of the late "Re publican" party, met in County Con vention, in this place, on Tuesday last. The machine was run principally by our friends Maj. Washabaugh and C. \Y. Ashcom, Esq. After much wire working and button-holing, a tick et was put up to be knocked down in October. The candidates selected for the sacrifice are as follows: Pro thonotary, J. W. Lingenfelter, Bed ford bor.; Sheriff, N. C. Evans. Cole rain; Commissioner, Samuel Shafer, Union; Poor Director, H. H. Fisher, South Wood berry; Auditor, J. it. O'- Neal, Monroe. Our friend Maj. Di bert had thirty-four dele<mtes instruct ed and pledged for him for Sheriff, whilst his opponent had but fourteen, but the wire-workers soon "fixed up" enough of the thirty-four to give Evans a majority of four. But such is the way of the world. "Surely all flesh is grass." But the grand fight was for the nomination for Representative.— The candidates were Col. John H. Fil ler, ('apt. John S. Stuekey, J. R. Bar borrow, Esq., and Hon. G. l>. Trout. As in the case of Mr. Dibert, Col. Fil ler had a clear majority of the Conven tion pledged to him, but on the first ballot received 21 votes—necessary to a nomination 23. The Convention in structed for Mr. Householder for Senator, bv what vote we did not learn. When we say that there never was so much disappointment and bitterness among the "Repub licans" of this county, as was pro duced by the conduct and nominations of this Convention, we only say what every man in this community knows to lie true. But be the nominations bitter or sweet to our opponents, they are destined to be beaten by an over whelming majority. The "dead march" played for the benefit of the Conven tion, by the "Republican" Brass Band, was very appropriate to the occasion. WE learn that there is still consider able discussion in the ranks of the Dis union Thads, as to whether Geary ought not to withdraw. The prospects of Clymer's election are very bright, whilst every day brings renewed evi dences of Geary's unpopularity, hence the Thads are seriously cogitating up on the subject of Geary's withdrawal, and we should not be at all surprised if the redoubtable General were soon to receive a written request to get out of the way for a new candidate. Of course, we hope IF' will insist upon re maining on the track. The hero of the Harper's Ferry spittoon, is the very man we can whip the easiest, notwith standing the fact that he made a very dean run from Snickersville, when he imagined Stonewall Jackson was after him. Besides he is a "Democrat with out a prefix, or an affix," and if he should happen to be elected, we can | easily show him a good reason to imi tate Andy Johnson. Therefore, we hope the Thads will not think any more of withdrawing him. How DO YOU LIKE IT, SOLDIERS ? You who fought for the restoration of the Southern States to the Union , how do you like the programme adopted by Congress to keep those States out of the Union? How do you like the expen diture of millions to keep up the Ne gro Bureau, whilst you and your fam ilies must eat your bread by the sweat of your face? How do you like the continual, persistent and endless legis lation by Congress for the blacks, j whilst not a single enactment is made for your relief? How do you like the : doctrine of the Radicals that you : fought for Negro Suffrage and the E ' quality of the Races, instead of for the Union and the Constitution? If you I like all this, vote for Gen. Geary. If not, cast vour ballot for Hiester Civ | mer, the candidate of the Union men of Pennsylvania. THE Congressional contested election ca.-e of Fuller vs. Dawson, luvs resulted in Dawson's retaining his scat. The i ease of Koontz vs. Coffroth is now un ; der consideration by the committee on j elections. It is uncertain which will ! obtain the seat, hut the Democracy have i had the vote and influence of Gen. Cof froth during the last six months, and evffn should the Abolition majority fi nally rule him out, they will gain but i iittle by it, as the important work of the present Congress, the Reconstruc j tion business, has been disposed of. NEBRASKA has gone Domoer&tie.— ! The Democratic majority in the Legis lature, on joint ballot, is x, securing I the election of two U. S. Senators.— laist year the "Republican" majority was 1,000. Babylon is fallen ! Hurrah, | boys, hurrah! Okkoi n is redeemed! The latest re turns give the to the Democrats by 4*h majority. The Legislature is Democratic, and there is a Democratic gain of one Congressman, the only one elected by the State. The bull is rolling. STILL they RONE! The Selinsgrove Post informs usthat a large meeting was held in Bealer,on the ">th inst., by the friends of President Johnson in the Republican partf, at which lion. Arch ibald Robinson (a life long Whig and "Republican" presided, and Maj.Chas. H. Shriner, of IJhion county, delivered a lengthy and alio address. The meet ing adopted resolutions endorsing Pres ident Johnson aad complimenting Sen ator Cowan. Maj. Shriner, who spoke at the meeting, is the same who made speeches for Curtin in this county, in < 1868, and who ran as the "Republican" ! candidate for Senator in the Lycoming, Union and Snyder district in 18(14. As the "Republicans" in this county ap peareil to be greatly delighted with Maj.* Shriner's speeches in 186-1, we hope they will send for him to stump the county this fall. Let us have Shri ller by all means. GOLD at 81.50! Gold at 81.00! Gold at si.7o! What is the reason of the rise in gold? The question is easily answered. Thud. Stevens' obstructive, destructive Reconstruction Committee has reported and the Dissolution of the Union is to be continued until the Con stitu ion can he cobbled into the shape the Disunionists want it. As long as we have eleven Irelands, eleven liun garys, eleven Rolands in the South, governed by the satraps of the Negro Bureau, we cannot get things into their normal condition. Just so long as Thad. Stevens' policy keeps up Disu nion, just so long will we have an in flated currency, disordered finances, oppression of the consumer and the poorer classes and death to trade and legitimate business of all kinds. The people have it in their power to help themselves, if they wili but do it. As nearly as we can compute about eight motions were made yesterday, in the house, to increase the salaries of as many officers, and most of them were agreed to. Will there never be an end of this? We suggest tliat some mem ber propose to reduce somebody's sal ary. He would be sure to create a sen sation if he did not save anything to the treasury.—.V. V. Daily Tribune, of June 10, 18(56. Even Horace Greeley, the most in satiable old vulture of all the flock that have glutted themselves on public plunder during the last five years, is at last becoming alarmed at the profligacy of his associates. An unsophiscated reader might suppose the above para graph to have been prompted by an honest desire for public economy.— Those who are acquainted with Gree ley will understand that it was prompt ed solely by a desire for radical success at the elections. Horace sees the "hand writing on the wall,"and is constrained to warn his fellow plunderers that they must be more decorous in their plun derings or there will be "earthquakes about." COL. FILLER had, on the last ballot in the "Republican'' Convention, a clear majority of all the votes cast, as follows: two votes from each of the fol lowing named districts —Bedford bor ough, Bedford township, Colerain, C. Valley, Southampton, Londonderry, Harrison, Schellsburg, Coaldale, Hope well, Juniata, Liberty; and one from Broad Top and one from Union ; ma king, in all, -6 votes, or one more than necessary toa choice. Thin con be estab lished on oath. We understand that the tally was kept by but one of the Secretaries of the Convention. The friends of Col. Filler would like that gentleman to explain bow, under this state of facts, a majority was figured up for ("apt. Stuckcy ? THE decision of the Supreme Court on the law disfranchising deserters will make hundreds of thousands of hearts beat high with hope and confi dence. Patriotic and law abiding peo ple of all parties, will rejoice that there is still one barrier between them and ruin, which fanatical legislatures can not sweep away. All hail to an un corrupted and incorruptible judiciary! It has always been the strongest bul wark of liberty, and we trust it will remain so until the end of time. The courts, thank God, both State and Federal, are dealing heavy blows at the intolerant and unconstitutional legislation t .at blackened American history during the last four years.— May they continue their work until not a stain remains. THE Rockingham Register, published at Harrisonburg, Va., has been greatly enlarged and improved. It is now printed on a Potter ('ylinder Press (same as that upon which the GAZETTE is printed) and is a perfect specimen of typograpical neatness. It is edited with great ability and spirit. Should any of our readers desire a paper from the Valley of Virginia, we recommend the Register. THE "Republican" party is now di vided into Thad-ites and Andy-crat^. — What new division there will be a moDg them by the time they are Gca ry-izdd wfe are unable tb foretell. Do Democrats ever think of the; value of one vote, and how easily they may make that one vote if they but determine to do it? Every grain of I sand is a part of the shore; every wave is a portion of the deep; as the momen tum of one wave carries others with it, and finally encroaches upon the shore, sweeping away one grain of sand after another, so may each one of us by ceaseless exertion, encroach upon the ranks of the enemy and build up De mocracy upon this "bank and shoal of time." WHAT small matters are our indi didual grievances when cast in the scale against principle. Yet how few of us are philosophers enough to weigh the two fairly and abide by the deci sion of the balances. WHO shall decide when doctors dis agree? Thad. Stevens says all rebels ought to be put "in the penitentiary of hell." Horace Greely offers to go se curity for Jeff Davis in order to obtain his re'ease. 31 u. REPUBLICAN, do you belong to the Thad-ites of your party? If you do, vote for the hero of the Harper's Ferry spittoon, vote for Major Gener al John Wiggle-waggle Geary. THE OLD GUARD. —One of the most original, spicy and interesting monthlies that we know of, is the "Old Guard," published by VanEvrie, Horton and Co., and edited by the noted C. Chauncev Burr. It contains the most fearless and trenchant arti cles on the political lunacy of the day, and exposes with an unsparing pen the foibles and fallacies of the present rulers of the American people. It should be in the hands of every man who loves soundness of reasoning, boldness of speech and patriotism of the true and catholic sort, not, "cab in'd, eribb'd, confined," to any sec tion or political class. GODEY'B LADY'S BOOK.—We have before us the July number of Godey, and are constrained to say that it is an excellent one in every respect. The fashion plates are very fine, whilst the other illustrations, as usual in Godey, are in excellent taste and the highest style of art. The present is a good time to subscribe, as the July number | begins a new volume. PETERSON'S M AGAZlNE.—Peterson's Ladies' National Magazine for July, is I a superb number. The literary con : tents are of a superior order, as for in stance, "The Queen of the Fairies," a very interesting and well written story and "The Soldier's Orphans," | a continuation of a novelette by the celebrated Ann S. Stephens. The fash ions and other illustrations are very line. The July number begins a new I volume, affording a good opportunity to subscribe. ini'OHTAXT SOI.BIERS" HKKTIXi. Tlie Soldiers in Ihc Field for President Joltnfton Hint lliesler <lj iner. An enthusiastic meeting of honora bly discharged soldiers favorable to President Johnson and Hiester Clymer took place last evening at the public house No. 10.South' Broad street,above Chestnut. General Wilson McCand lese was elected President, and Lieu tenant J. J. Sullivan was appointed Secretary. The President appointed Captain Powers, Private Samuel F. Cloak, and Private Charles Van Horn, a Committee on Resolutions, and they reported the following, which werea dopted unanimously. Whereas, A so-called "Soldiers' Con vention" lately assembled at Pitts burgh, in Pennsylvania, underthe pre tense of expressing the opinion of the citizen soldiers of the Keystone State who have survived the perils of battle and returned to their homes, on the present condition of public affairs ; and Whereas, Said Convention, with some distinguished and honorable ex ceptions, was largely composed of "home-guards" and "head-quarter" guards, and quartermasters, and re lieved officers, and some who had such respect for State rights that they did not believe in crossing the "State iine;" and Wherm, Justice to the rank and file who helped to do the fighting, and those officers who led their men to the front, demands that they should not be excluded from an expression of their opinion or befrayed by interested poli ticians into rot nig against the cause for which they fought; therefore Remlced, That those soldiers who believe the late war was for the Union of all the States, and the Constitution is the Supreme law of all the States, and for which they took up arms; and who did not fight to alter our glorious form of government, or to give the negro <ifl the. political and social rights of'free white citizens, and who believe President Johnson isanxious to secure for the people the prnot icat results of the late victories won in the field, by re storing the States to their constitution al relations, preserving the Union, and defending the Constitution as Wash ington gave it to our fathers, and who are opposed to the action of the so-call ed Congress as revolutionary, anti-re publican, and destructive of the gener al prosperity and happiness of the whole people—all such are invited to meet at Harrisburg on the —day of- A. 1). 1800, in convention, to express their opinions and sign their names thereto. A committee of thirteen was appoint ed on pemanent organization whose duty it should be to report at next meeting. After a few remaks in reference to the objects in question, the meeting adjourned until next Wednesday even ing at same place.— Age. —The Village National Bank of Bowdenham, Elaine, *was robbed on Thursday night of sixty-seven thou sand dollars. The robbers followed the cashier to his home, gagged his family and placed a guard over them, and then took the cashier back to the bank, and after stripping the vault of the money it contained, locked the cashier up in the vault and left, it is supposed, for Canada. —A Botany Bay convict has just died in Sydney* who had amimuiatod a fortune df Tilt' < OXSTITI TIOX.iI, AJtKXimfiXT. Scwaril Trn JIKIHI fx •*<• llciiorl of the Joint Committer to tlx- Stale Executive —The President AOvlxex its Kejeellea. In the House of Representativesyes- ' terdav, the Speaker laid before tlie House the following message of the President, which was read and referred to the Committee on Reconstruction: To the Senate and Honee of Representa tive*: I submit to Congress a report of the Secretary of State, to whom was refer red the concurrent resolution of the 18th ilist., respecting a submission to the Legislatures of the States of an ad ditional article to the Constitution of the United States. It will be seen from this report that : the Secretary of State had, 011 the Ititli I inst., transmitted to the Governors of i the several States certified copies of the I joint resolution, passed on the 13th I inst., proposing an amendment to the ! Constitution. Even in ordinary times, any ques ! tion of amending the Constitution j must bejustly regarded as of paramount j importance/ The importance is, at the present time, enhanced by the fact that the joint resolution was not submitted by the two Houses for the approval of the President, and that of the thirty six States which constitute the Union, eleven are excluded from representa tion in either House of Congress, al though with the single exception of Texas they have been entirely restor ed to all their functions as States, in conformity with the organic law ofthe land, and have appeared at the Nation ! al Capitol by Senators and Represcnfa j fives, who have applied for, and have been refused admission to the vacant seats. Nor have the sovereign people of the nation been afforded an opportunity of expressing their views upon the im portant qnestion which the amend ment involves. Grave doubts, there fore, may naturally and justly arise as to whether the action of Congress is in harmony with the sentiments of the people, and whether State Legislatures, elected without reference to such ail issue, should be called upon by Con gress to decide respecting the ratifica tion of the proposed amendment. Waiving the question as to the <'on stitutional validity of tic proceedings of Congress upon the joint resolution j proposing the amendment, or as to the ! merits ofthe article which it submits through the Executive Department to the Legislatures ofthe States, I deem ! it proper to observe that the steps j taken by the Secretary of State, as de ! tailed in the accompanying report, are | to be considered as purely ministerial, j and in no sense, whatever, committing the Executive to an approval or a re i commendation of the amendment to | the State Legislatures or to the people. On the contrary, a proper appreciation | of the letter and spirit of the Constitu ! tion, as well as of the interests of 11a ■ tional order, harmony and union, and i a due deference for an enlightened l public judgment, may, at this time, I well suggest a doubt whether any a j mendment to the Constitution ought ! to be proposed by Congress and press | edupon the Legislatures of the several i States for final decision until after the ' admission of such loyal Senators and Representatives of the now unrepre sented States as have been or may hereafter be chosen, in conformity with the Constitution and laws of the United States. ANDREW JOHNSON, Washington, D. C., June £2, 1866. < I,VM KlfS PROSI'EI TS. From all parts of the State, we con tinue to receive the most cheering ac counts of the rapid progress our distin guished candidate for Governor is making in popular favor. In the strong Democratic districts, the people are for him to a man; and in the counties which have been hitherto carried by the Republicans, he is making great headway. The Democrats are united and cordial in his support, while thou sands of conservative voters among the opposi tion, who are heartily sick of the destructive and revolutionary measures of the Radical Congress, openly declare their intention to go for him, as the best means of administer ing an effective rebuke to the Stevens and Sumner cabal of disunionists, — Every where the name of CLY ME it stands high in the confidence and af fection ofthe people, and wherever he goes, he is greeted with the heartiest enthusiasm. On the other hand, his opponent, GEAKY, is as a dead weight upon the party that nominated him. His name awakens little interest, and kindles no warmth in the popular heart. Even among the soldiers, for whose votes his nomination was intended as a bait, he meets with poor encouragement.— He has no military giory to attract them to him, and they have no confi dence in his administrative abilities as a civilian. The organization of Sol diers' Clymer Clubs in almost every county, shows that "the boys in blue" prefer an lionest and capable statesman to a paper General who never won a battle. With no Provost Marshals to intimidate voters at home, and no sol diers in the tieid to be tampered with by their superior officers, CLYMEII'S election by the unbiased verdict ofthe people may be considered a sure thing, lie will undoubtedly poll the full vote that wits given to GEORGE \V.
