THE END OF FANATICISM
Very many newspaper writers profess
themselves seriously alarmed by the revo
lutionsry Attitude of the Republican party.
They tared, to think that the political saw
tion of the country now bangs doitbitM
upon the utterance of the President. That
so shallow an opinion should find such gen
eral credit is in itself no favorable foreshow
ing for the powers that be. The truth is'
that the end of the war brought with it the
end Of the party that made it, . It now holds
power by succession and not by consent.—
Its leaders are stricken dumb and blind by
the exigencies of their present position.
To deluge the country with debt and blood'
was a task as easy as It was congenial...—
When the necessities of the Treasury were
the only. measure of its authority any dab
eter in finance could pay his way. Every
gap between end and means was bridged by
a note of hand. The determined spirit with
which the nation defended its unity and the
passionate ardor of war gave support and
Immunity to a weak and cruel administra
tion. New measures of exasperation - and
new levies of men followe d milt other like
the thrusts of a weaver's shuttle; The his
torian will trace the fatal thread with hor
ror. But Mr. &anion's last time is over i
tho day of passion is past, and pay day le
fast approaching. To reunite the lately
belligerent States in the bonds of political
fraternity ; to devise an equal syetem of
taxation adequato to the payment of the in
terest upon cur frightful debt; and to solve
the problem of whet
.to do with four millions
of Ignorant negroes, thrust from their homes
and oirtione by the fate of war, incapa
ble of 0 llunship anct emancipated from
compuleary usefulness—are the questions
upon which the Republican party are now
sailed to sot; and on every one of the quell;
' tionsthey find themselves split' into conten
ding factions. They can only agree *upon
measures calculated to gain time by prolon
gingitatata of war. The soft pitted fanatics
of New England are at their wit's end ;• and

upon the grant of the elective' franchise to
negroes, he declared -that he preferred the
Southern States should cotitinua to dlsfran
ohise4W negroes, and iose the additiottal

cratic party practically.
knows that in 1864 the Democratic party in
thetNorthern States counted the startling
aggregate of 1,800,000 votes. Mr. Stevens
also knows that In 1860 the Southern States
polled 800,000 Democratio votes, which
added to the vote of the Northern Democra
cy leaves the utmost etregth of the Repub
lican party in a minority of over 800,000.
It is this fatal predominance which purely
zee the arm of the Republican pa'rty. They
stand aghast before the apparition of a
united country. Petty men among them
run hither and thither with their tinkering
pole suggesting and attempting alterations
in the fundamental law which shall make
the future life of their party possible; but
the patient is past recovery. Until we have
another civil war there will be no necessity
for another Republican party.
The great questions which gave rise to
the war are now remitted to the coming
statesmen .of our time, •It cab hardly *be
said that the war has settled anything. It
has brought us face to face with a new ex ,
periment in the treatment of the African
race. It has also put us to the proof of how
a burdensome government may be made
tolerable to a free people. To wisely solve
the questions must tax the courage and ca
pacity of our wisest and beat men. The
party in power stand confessedly incapable,
divided and distracted. ''he opportunity
and the responsibility of the future will fall
into other and stronger hands. Meantime,
we can -well afford to let Sumner strut' and
Stevens bluster. They sing an appropriate
funeral ehant . over the grave of fanaticism.

• SIR MOUTON SBTO.—The subjoined brief
sketoh of Sir Morton Peto, the leading spir
it in the Atlantio & Great Western Railroad
Company, will be read with interest:
Morton Pete comtneneed life a mechanic, li
and by dint of bonen industry and enter
prise, has gained the title of "The Railway
King of the World." He is represented as
being a talkative and agreeable person, care
ful in his bearing and speech, and a devoted
member of the Baptist church. lie heads
the railway interest of England,and is large
ly interested in several American 'lines,
prominent among which is the Atlantio &
Great Western. He controls the employ
ment of one hundred thousand men, and his
speaulatiOns embrace the United States,
Canada, Russia, Austria, Italy, Peru, New
Zealand and Australia. The laborers on
the lines he regulates are said to really out
number the fighting British army. He is
largely Interested in tho operations of sub
terranean Lends* where his workmen are
"picking"- night and day, and his - engines
rumbling under the foundation of , quiet
houses. It is said that in the empire of
Austria alone, eight thousand men eat his
bacon, and this is but a small portion of kis
army of laborers. His late visit to the Uni
ted States will likely result in still larger
inveatmenta. He is certainly entitled. to
the name Railway. Ring, though his habits
during his Tick have been of rigid republi
can simplioity.--Ex. , .

BELLEFONTE, PA.,' FRIDAY; FEBRUARY 16;1866.
SOUTHERN TRIBUTE' TO • GENERAL
'GRANT: - •
General grant 'lrwin, Wee us , ip his char
acter of a. wise matt _Mid' a conservative
statesman. From the moment he over
whelmed General Lee with the irresistible
force of 'numbers, wielded by hie indomita
ble will and untiring perseverance, lie drop
ped the character of a,.military conquiror,
and all his utterances , have been those of _, I
patriot:and a statesman, who saw that the•
sword had done its 'appointed work, and the
polioy. of conciliation was the duty of the
hour. The honorable terms be awarded. to
General Leo and his veterans, who 'bad op-:
posed him with determined and bloody re
sistance, struck a chord of sympathy in the .
Southern breast, 'the intonation of which
was in exact proportion to the singular rar
ity of deeds of generosity' up to that ate
from the Federal commanders, Grant was
essentially a "Union General." He fought
in sincerity and in earnest for the preserva
tion Of the "Union"—not as a pretext of ul
terior views, Oct as an excuse for slaughter,
plunder, confiscation and subjectitin, but as
a reality. 'And when the first step in his
object bad been accomplished, in dispersing
the armies organised to break it up, be
proved his sincerity by acts and efforts to
bind up the political wounds inflicted by
the war, and by immediately dropping the
sword to gaze the - olive branch. He- has
thus shown his want of sympathy with the
radical plirn of continuitig the war In time
of peace, and of rejecting.the Union which
they had fought for.
His conservative tendency and his love of
justice and truth have been recently mani
fested in the report be made to theresident
of the condition of things in the South
whence be had just returned. He declared
the people sincerely and heartily desiroug,
of restoration, and in earnest in their pro.'
fessions and vows of allegiance to the Gov
ernment of the United States. He told the
truth, also, unpalatable to the negro wor
shippers, that the "Freedmen" were for the
most part, idle and unwilling to enter into
labor contracts for the coming year. In
this, he has performed a valuable service to
the South,. for his testimony will outweigh
upon the Northern publio mind, the reports
of a thousand Ouch ex pane witnesses as
Carl Sebum, MIR_ Covello and .General .
Banks.
In hie late admirable report of the opera-
tions of the great armies under hie command,
he gives another proof of the generosity of
hie spirit and the broad nationality of his
feellngs,, in a grateful passageof tribute to
the gallantry of the South. After: doing
justice to the equal bravery of the troops of
the East and West; who had -fought under
his eye, he adds: "Let us bops for perpet
ual pence and harmony with the enemy,
whose manhood, however mistaken, drew
forth sunk herculean deeds of valor I"
A man of General Grapt's stamp is inval
uable to a country in an epoch like this.—
Events may take a shape to open to him
even a wider and grander field of patriotic
effort than that in which ho has already
earned so distinguisod a reputation. Ile
Ivnay yet have to marshal parties and .
cies as he has heretofore dope battalions and
armies. A Democrat in political faith and
oduc at ion, and a Conservative in sentiments
and principles, who knows but that he la
the coming man to rally the hosts of his
political persuasion' to• the defence of the
rights And liberties guaranteed by the Cone
stitution of the Union. The duty of a'great
leadership has to develop on some strong
patriot.
Fortune has placed President Johnson in
the gap of freedom, but ho may fail, or try-'
log, fall like Leonidas and his little,band at
Thermopylin. In either event General
Grant possessee the great qualities and rare
gifts to fit him to take up the flag of the
constitution and bear it in triu'mph. The

ticed as a curious astronomical foot that in
Januarythere.Were two fitllmoons, in Feb

It occasionally happene there are two full
moons in one and the some months ; for as
the time between one.full moon and the oth
er one next following is. shorter than the
length of the time of the differentmonths of
the year, with the exaeption of February ,
such an event must occur as often att. a full
moon happens to be in the beginning of a
month, at such a moment t 5 time
enough left for the moon to renat her course
of twenty-nine days, twelve hours, forty
four minutes, and three seconds in the same
month. But that a certain full moon or full
moons repeat at,, same day and at the
same moment is a rare occurrence. They
will be repeated In the course of time, but
never witnessed a second time by mortal
mem If the time between one full 1110011
aud4iha next following were exactly twenty,-
nine days, and our year exactly three hun
dred and sixty-five days, your phenomenon
would occur every' twenty-nine years; but
as the time from one full moon toanother is,
as above slated, twenty-nine days, twel e
hence, forty-four minutes and three sego
and the length of our year three bun
and eixiy-tive days, five hours, forty-eig t

in question can only occur again after 2,-
