The evil report of his deeds pervades
the country as a reproach to our State.
Yes, unhappily for Pennsylvania and her
great interests the bustard-winged fame of
Simon Cameron is national. By months of
abject solicitation and corrupt bargaining,
he procured a mass of louses, certificates
and recantations that imposed him upon
Presitlent,Lineoln as the representative
man of the Keystone State. That was an
evil hour for Pennsylvania. You all re
member how he organized the Naval Agen
cy in this city, and Teel the, ineffable' 're
proach he, thus brought upon our Navy
Yard and commercial and other business
men. In the Obstree of his impudent and
ill-judged harangue he saidl "In the olden
time a member of Con rest Philadel
phia would have had sufficient influence to
have carried his point (the establie)nkent of
SOO station at League Island) withoftt.ti
dissenting voice." Is that the assertion of
a sober man ? and did he vhii; made it. for—
get that our Congressmen in tilte olden time

reputation of Simon Cameron, the Fagan of

War, to contend with, and, therefore, had
some chance for success! My colleagues

made agent of the Government to carry a
large amount of money, due tikem, to the
Winnebago Indians, and had taken advan

enrich bJmself. Those of you who had
then attained to manhood, though you may

BEI44EFONTE, PA., FRIDAY, SEPTEMEBR 8, 1865.,
What Mr. Lincoln's moat Master Gen
eral thinks of the Platform of jhe
Republican Party of Pennsylvania.
On the 26th inst., Hon. Montgomery
Blair, the first Poet Master General under
Mr. Lincoln, delivered a remarkable speech
at'Clarkiville, Montgomery county, Mary
land. Re ventilated some thinks greatly
to the disadvantage oI Seward, Stanton and
other radical leaders ofttku Republican
party. He also found time Co review the
Republican platform 'adopted by their
repent State genyent ion in Pennsylvania.—
Justly regarding it as nothing else than an
expressioirof the radical views' of the arch
agitator end practical amalgamationist..
Thaddeus Stevens, shows clearly how utter.
ly unworthy be I. of the support of any
right thinking man in the Republican paity.
His evidence against it will surely be heed
ed. Here is , what he bays of the awful
conglomeration of radical absurdities :
"According to the programme of the Ste
vens resolutions; there are no loyal men in
the South taut the enfranchised blacks;
the white man who succumbed to the usur
pation and obeyed its behest—and this
Asery,whiLe-w.• ootrp lad to-daLds- •
franchised as disloyal. In logical sequence
from this State of facts, the national legis
lature is to absorb all legislation, State and
national over the whole South. It is to
assume absolute power over everything
south of_Mason and Dixon's line—and how
le it to be exercised
Mr. Stevens, forgetting that our govern
ment was bound by- the Constitution to
protect the people of every State from all
domestic violence and usurpation, ati'vell
as foreign invasion, and in failing to do - it,
might be justly bold to indemnify the loyal
people who have suffer* by the rebellion
has the hardihood to declare in his resolu
tions that the people of the South, en maaae,
C infounding the innocent with, the guilty,
are bound, but of their substance, to pay
the whole national debt inourred by the war.
This is somewhat like tying a millstone
round the neck of every mania the commu
nity and throwing them into the ocean. It
o'ertninly overwhelms him in a flood from
which hacan hardly swim out with such a
weigh t
But this, it may be said, is only a life
long incumbranee of - generations, which Is
making the poor white posterity who have

the sins of their forefathers. Buelesksome
men who have donsideralile-atalsstancifi-in
land or other estate that. has survived the
war may go to work and build up again an
ndependence for thetneelves, and their devo
ted country, Mr. Stephens has provided an
other sweeping resolution, Which cute down
at one'blow all such aspirations. The reap
lution is that confiscation, like our reaping'
machines, shall be driven by the steam en- .
gine of our absolute government—absolute
over the South—and reduce all fortunes to
ten thousand dollars in value. It does not
say whether the valuation is to be,Confeder
ate paper or greenbacks. But whether it
be one or the other, the stubble-field will be
little worth gleaning when we shell have
firstpxtracted the war debt from the unhap
.pyAbjeote of the rebellion. To get a gov
ernitent tiufficiontly hardened to execute
these decrees, Mr. Stevens appeals to the
soldiers, and tells them that no man is ever
to be nominated for an office unless ho has
served in the field. So they are to be the
ispeneers of all the spoils of the etript,the
naked children. How little this veteran
politician knows the magnanimdus patriot
who fought their battles for the liberal ant
merciful institutions of our country ! They
are the last men in the world to urge to
cruelty in cold biped. lima° men when
hungry took the bread out of their own
haversacks and gave with their canteens to
their - impetrate foe. Let them Judge the
South, and we are all brothers.
lir. Stevens nett promises .themanufac
turers unbounded protection If they will
only help to strip the South and reduce it
to utter ruin. The manufacturers, so far
from doing this, will lend it their ',spite', at

soldiers in lota have nominated a State
ticket in opposition to that of the Repub

into the principle, of the nominees, have
excepted and indorsed them as their owu.
This is doubling on the Republicans a team
which they_will_ find it hard to boat. In
foam, as in thttiT3tate, the soldiers have dis
covered that all the promises of '.the Re
publican party amount to nothing., In WS

promises, but not good enough to share the
emoluments of office. • This is so well un

The truth is, that ;vtlille the AOlipublican
party are everywhere trying to overreach
the soldier by tricks and deception, the
Democrats aro recognising their claims in
the most substantial manner. In lowa they
have adopted the soldiers' ticket; in this
Stale they have plaited two brave soldiers
upon the State ticket. In Philadelphia
t , ay have nominated three soldiers, Colonel
Biddle, Adjutant Weaver and Captain Reilly
for lucrativaorioos. So king as the Repub
lican party mad use the soldiers to prop
their tottering political edifice,-they were
loud In promises and Wordy oompliutents.
But when the soldiers eskedlor a fulfillment
of previous pledges, they wore denied, and
banished from the Convention, by d vole
that was a virtual inault to them. The
Democratic party were the friends of the
soldiers of 1776, of 1812, of 1847, and they
are the real friends of thisoldiers of 1861.

The St. Louis Republican, referring to the
apparently systematic efforts that are made
in the direction reprobated by ifs Massa
, chusetts namesake, says:
Such stories as these about the South
were rife While the 'eompremiee
hor 'oh might have saved the country
from the disasters of our civil war, ware
pending. Then similar horrors were conjur
ed up. Frank Leslie', Illwiralerlpublished a
cartoon, showing the hanging at St Charles
Missouri, of Rev. Mr. White by a pro-sla
very mob. No such, hanging_ took place
there—and no- Rev. Mr. White lived there
at that time, nor, so far as we oould learn,
ever did live there. AL the same time the
N. Y. Tribune published a story of a horri
ble enormity committed at Bair's Point
Mississippi; the enormity consisting of the
seizure of a Northern man and heading him
up in a barrel which was then trundled
into the river-. No such outrage mitred
there, as was satisfactorily shown upon the
statements of the beet citizens of that
place, who published a card utterly denying
the troth of the story. Shortly after tlis
publication another outrage precisely like
it was, upon the authority of a statement in
the Tribune,perpetrated on a creek btek in
Alabama. There was rya much truth in
this story as'in its fellow. The wonder is,
that. a genius Inventive enough fop the
production of the first lie could not have
varied his second one, but choose rather to
repeat himself. Ebb he suppose that. his
readers wore ready tit believe anything, and
would swallow the self-same tale of outrage
when multiplied by the easy triok of shif
ting the venue to fifty different localities ?
The design and object of such stories were
apparent. They were like that legend
which the fertile brain of the Redpath
mentioned above coined, when he played
the part of Kansas correspondent ?or New
York and other Eastern pript's. They were
intended to perforin for the Northern mind
what ranoy proposed for the Southern
mind, to wit: "Fire it." The object at
that time was to rouse against the Southern
people a thread, which 'would make the
Northern people refuse to dizten to any
terms of oompromiee with the South.
* * *
To any man out of the "ring"—to any
man who is not bent on forcing on the
South negro suffrpge and negro equality,
social se well as political—it is, evident
that the Southern people are doing all. that
could be expected, and all that could be
asked of - them. have - aubmitterd= ,
they have relinquished all thought of res
toring slavery. They desire only to live
under_ those State organisations, which cote
in 'toward wslh the. Constitution of the
United States. They are willing to obey
.and support every law of the Union, and
in that' respect are as loyal as any people
in our brtiad•land. Can we ask Judie ? No.
It is foul injustice and outrage to wak more,
nobody L asking more. except these plotters
against the Derma and best interests of the
country which we have stigmatised - with
much less force of reprobation than they
deserve.
No far es concerns these reports of wrong
and outrage and sU sorteriat violence and
