The Democratic Watchman. BY P. GRAY MEEK Terri - C - 52 per Annum, in Advance BELLEFONTE, PA Friday Morning, May 7,1869 Humpnitarianism Run Mad The "philosopher" of the New York Tribune gave lately an account of the killing ea thief named Pasco in War ren county, N. Y., by n spriag-gun set up by a farmer named Barker near his barn, from which he had been rubbed of quantities of corn from time to time. Mr. Greeley is horrified that the thief should have been killed for no greater offense than an attempt to steal corn, and demands that the grand jury of Warren county "shall forthwith indict Barber for manslaughter." It is curious what ideas of right and lustica these crazy humanitanane and philosophers isisess. Says Horace Greeley : It does not follow, if we find a pickpocket searching for our purse that we ha% e a right to brain hurl on the spot." On the contrary, we sup poae, Dlr. Circe finding the hand of a pickpocket in his trousers, would gently remove the same, adjust his opecs properly on the bridge of his nose, take froin.his pocket a convenient volume entitled the Old Vestanient, reading therefrom his text : "Thou shalt not steal," and procede at once to de liver to the offending prit a vigorous and effectual moral lecture, and at the conclusion dismissing him with prayer and benediction—"Go thy way, and ste4l no more !" • 4' here theorms moPe or lens permeate through-all the ph ilosophy'of the l'nri tan Etutt. We remendber on the break ing out of the "late onpleasaiitness," 'the speech of an astonished Yankee to his ftienda, who had just returned hur riedly from the front : "n ould )ou be lieve it, Mammy, thetu Larval rebels went and shot sure enough bullets at . its," When some of the humnnitan fins set out from their onion beds iii col) titter the South, they thought it barite OUR that rebels should shoot sure enough bullets at them and try to kill them Horrible fellows !

Some thing like this, for insuince: 1. If a thief puts his hands into Qur pockets, ask him politely to re move it. Reason with him. Slio« him the wickedness of taking things without asking. Read him a chapter from the Bible, kneel 40.11'11 and pray anti him, and then go thy way, all the happier for the consciousness of having done kindly by your neighbor. • 2. If you are a fariNer, be careful to remove all obstructions to the night ibitor. If the night is dark, leave a. candle and match outside conveniently, and a key near by, that he may not risk his precious life in the dark, or hy crauliog- into upper story widows. Re cure to chain "Boweer" down well, co that he may not put his teeth into the flesh of your visitor. A nice, pal amide lunch set out on the back steps or - rellnr door will be relished. If you keep a syringe and chloroform, leave them convenient for him to squirtiu upo•I you .toile sleeping, and if you have any cotta saturated with turpem tine, put it where he can get it, as it will aid Min in halting' tire to your house or. torn. 3. If you are a merchant, be exceed. ugly emend in having all loose boxes r et out or the Wily. LealP yOnrlllOney -11Tawers Open, and a bible on the coin tar. If you deal in clothing, and know the dimensions of the expected -Oisifor, pick him out, and fold up a nice fit of clothes, a good pair of serviceable hoots, and a jaunty hat. If yours is a drug store, put out cotWeniently,"specimang of your best smelling and most popu lar salts and scents, with a slate fir him to write his Annie upon, and leave his addresA. When you gi.t up in the morning, call and see him, expostillitet and wrestle with him, and tell him about the ertSss, and Robison Crusoc; and all the nice little things that you can call to mind. If he is drowsy from loss of sleep, take him to your wife's house, and give him a bed. He'll feel better, 'and may be, the next time he visits your store he'll think of your kindness and not try to burn it. We suppose something like the above would do; but it may be that the immortal Horace can get up an improvement. We pause for n re ply.

Peril of the Republic That there is a widespread alarm ,I , selling in the hearts and minds of men of all parties, as to the studied re ticeare and concealed purposes of Gen rises S. Grant, is becoming more and more apparent. It is an alarm arising from the absolute vagueness, so to peak, , - of the %cry brief expressions indulged upon ant subject, and especi all% concerning the form of GoN eminent over %Such this new . 01fin without a record or a It rum n principle, has been chosen, Iv!, the blind applause of deeper ate political gamblers to preside For all that the public, or e‘en Ills most intimate triends may know, Gen.

Don Platt, of Ohio, who is a re• warkable and ingeneous gentleman for a Republican has given the public his iess of the President.

Gen. Grant is ii7o fool. 'There are those in the Federal Senate who aspire to be statesmen and politicians, who haze retired from audiences with the Sphymx m u condition not far different, morally from that of their colprts who marshalled on the plains of Bull's Ulm "once upon a time." lien Grant is the most dangerous politician among them all.

And more, this paper, the Imprria'ist, that is now advocating the entire abrogn \ lion of even the lurms of Itepublicmi Government on this continent, and the crowning of ma Emperor, has within the past two seeks been recognized at the official organ of the "Grand Army of the Republic," a radical soldier or ganization, whose chief is John A 1,0 gan, radical member of Congress Iron Illinois.
