BELLEFONTE REPUBLICAN. W. W. BROWN. 1 A. 13. HUTCHISON, f Terms, $2 per Annum, in Advance, BELLEFONTE,PA Wednesday . Morning, March V, '69 The Constitutional Amendment The Amendment to the U. S. Con stitution has passed the State Senate by a strict party vote; it is now being debated- in the house. Abel speeches have been made pro. and eon. - It is well enough for the members to dis cuss the question fully, but we dislike the delay occasioned by it. The peo ple are ready for the question, and de sire their servants in the House to rati fy the amendment without unnecessary delay. The opposition of the Democratic party to this measure only proves.that they are retrograding, and are anti-. progressive. Years ago, when democ racy meant something, when it was a liberty-loving party, whin it ad- vocated equal and exact justice to all - men, freemen of color voted in all the old States. This right to vote was con ferred upon them by the fehers and founders of the Government, and no objection was ever made to it until the Democratic party became aristocratic —false to its honor, its character, its position—and was swallowed up by, and made the supplient tool of, the Southern slave driver. The Watchman, and every other Copperhead paper in the State, are raising the hue and cry of 'the .unfair ness of the manner of subniittine the amendment. They say that it should be submitted to the votes of the peo ple. These Editors know, just as well as we, that this is all bosh. The Con stitution of the United States does not provide for that method of amendment, It provides that the Legislatures of three-fourths of all the States are suf ficient at any time, and all that is re quired to change or amend the U. S. Constitution. - This Constitutional method of amending the Constitution has been . striatly adhered to . by the Congress of the Nation, and the amend- ment • is, therefore, before the . state Legislatures for ratification. But the Copperhead leaders are never satisfied with anything that is done in accord ance with the' Constitution. When Grant whipped their rebel brethren under Lee, and caused them to sur render, and promise to obey the Cob stitution,.and the laws of . the land, these Copperhead leaders said it was unconstitutional, and wrong, to coerce such gentlemanly fellows, and such good Citizens and Beraberats. as were these aschel seounCra'S wl- o• - ought to d: stroy the Government. There is no use, gentlemen. The dye is;east: XonnuaY just as well keep quiet, because the people have no confidence in you—in your party—your honesty,:or YoUr pro fessions. You know this as well as we dO. Congress understands this, and the triumphant majority given to Gen. Giant laSt fall, abundantly proves it. So that Congress, in proposing this amendnient to the Constitution, and • the Legislatures of the different States in ratifying it, are only ratifying and endorsing the well-defined wishes and desires of their constituents, the peo 7 pie of the United States, and letting the Copperheads down easy. This, by the way, as Mr. LINCOLN was wont to say, reminds us of a little story. A pious old negro, saying grace at the table, not only used to ask a blessing upon his-board, but he would also petition to have some definite dish supplied. One day it was known that Cato was out of potatoes, and suspecting that he would pray for some at dinner, a wag provided himself with a small measure of the vegetables, stole under the win. dow, next which stood the table of our colored christian. Soon Cato drew up a chair and commenced : . "Oh, masse Lord, will dow in dy provident kindness condescend to bresi eberything before us and be pleased to bestow on us 45 few taters—and all _de praise—" . • • (Here the potatoes were dashed up on the table, breaking plates and up setting the mustard pot.) "Dems 'em, Lcird," said Cato.look ing with surprise, only just luff 'em down a little easier next time." The amendment will of course be ratified, and de coled . bredren through out the whole country will pray de Lord to luff de Democrats down easy, OFFICIAL ORDERS — TAKE NOTICE.— Postmaster General Cresewell has is sued an order declaring that from and after the 31st day of March the com mis ions of all special agents of the Post Office Department, other that those under pay and assigned to duty in prescribed diStricts in the several States and Territories will be revoked ; and notice is also given that the com missions of all special agents retained in the service of said Department will expire on the 31st day of Decmber next, and must then be renewed.

None will e le(-s iced by the Poama6ter Gener. AVE learn from a dispatch to the Harrisburg Telegraph tbat PleAdent Grant was quite indisposed on Satur day last. No visitor:: were admitted to ti:e White bouFe. incessant hal ors :-ince his inautzmation 1 ave been toe !Luck for him. We want a change in the Register and Recorder's office: but we desire a still . greater change than that. We want the office divided. In this de partment there are three separate and distinct offices, to wit : Register cf Wills, Recorder, and Clerk of the Or phan's Court. Th.se are all held by one man. When our county was young, and sparcely populated, this was well enough; but now,when our county con tains from 0,000 to 60,000 inhabitants, it is not right, and there is no reason whickcan be urged for its continu ance. EDITOIttI As .these offices, now held by one man, are salaried, or rather paid at per centum rates on the work done, the suggested division, or change, could make not one cent of difference to the tax payers, but would be an ad vantage in everYway. It now requires two men, constantly, to do the work of the office. Why should one of them be a clerk, while the other reaps the profits? In other counties, not so pop ulous as Centre, these offices are sepa rated. We want them divided • here. Let us have a law to that effect. Let one man be elected to fill the office of Register of Wills, and Clerk of the Or phan's Court, and another to fill the office of Recorder of Deeds. This is fair and Democratic. Who can object, especially when it does not increase the expense . to the taxpayer? With the Bellefonte and Lewisburg .Railroad-coMpleted, it will not be five years until our population in the county will be doubled, and fully one-half of all the . property in the county will change hands. The result will . .be, if the office remains aiat Present, three or four clerks, while:some favorite of , the "Court House clique"will hold the office, and become, not only independ ently rich, but independently impu dent. Here is work for P. G. MEEK, the Representative of Democracy, from this county (for he doeS not represent the intelligent, or Republican element) to do. Will he do it? Dare he do anything to which the "Court House clique," or any portion of it, would ob ject? Dare he attempt to offer one bill, or ask for the passage of one law that will benefit the people, and aid in breaking up Court House monopolies? We will see. Certain it-is that he has done noth ing yet to earn the money paid him as Representative, nor any thing .for the benefit Of the people of the county.— If he were honest in - what , he' sayi the Watchman about extravagance, or if he had any cenficience at all,he would resign and come home, refusing to take . any pay for his'services in 9/Lis-repre senting our county. He can t in our estimation, redeem .his chaiacter,.. to some extent, by of fering, without delay, a bill to divide the Register and Recorder's officee Centre county. The Republicans tend to carry the county next fall, .and therefore we wish this monopoly broken , up. We want to elect one candidate for Register of Wills; one candidate for Recorder, &e.; and so on to the end of the chapter. In view of these facts, we appeal to you, P. G. MEEK, to do one honest, disinterested act—to pass One law that will benefitthe-whole peo ple. WORTHY of THOUGHT. —The effects of protection and free trade are aptly contrasted by 111 r. Carey in cne of his letters in refutation of some of the statements contained in the report Of 11r. Wells. He makes the following allegations, and challenges successful contradiction : British free trade al most crushed out the great iron man ufacture in the period from 1817 to 1824 ; paralyzed it in that from 1835 to 1842: and did the same in that from 1840 to 1860. American free dom of commerce, resulting from pro tection against the "warfare," of British "capitalists from 1824 to 1833 ; did the same from 1842 to 1848 ; and has doubled it since 1861. British free trade never permanently added a single ton to the iron production in the whole thirty years ofits existence. American freedom of commerce has added 1,500,000 tons in the less than twenty yearsd'hat the country has been ruled by the tariffs of 1828, 1842 and 1861. DEMOCRATS RANT IN VAlN.—Demo cratic acerbity says the Press has been greatly intensified by Grant's signing of the bills to increase the public cred it and to secure civil rights to all the citizens of the District of Columbia. This purely patriotic and Republican action on his part cements him closely with his party and makes of him a true Executive exponent. it will endear him to the people, whose con fidence has remained unshaken des pite the attempts of Democratic jour nals to impair it. We cannot much wonder, however, at the agony of Democracy, fur on the heels of this ac tion of the President comes the an , nouncement that the new Secretary of the Treasury is hopeful, and with prompt collection of the revenue will rapidly pay off the public debt. This must be alarming indeed ; for since the "nigger" has reached the estate of man and citizen, Denocracy has had no pabulum for prejudice except what little it could find in attacks upon the national credit. TIIE HONEST DEN OCRACY. —A Terra Route (Indiana) papt-,r says a Demo. cratio bolter, just returned from the State capital, exchanged hie cribbed s.tat ionei.y for a plow, and paid for his wile's new dress in postage stamps. The wife ofa "resigned" Representa tive in a Southern county offered, in part payment for a bill of dry goods, ::33S in postage stamps, which she said her husband bad drawn from the Leg. Mature. Why Not? The Tenure of . Office Law. There appears to ba a dead lock between the President and the Sen ate on the subject of the Tenure of Office Law. So long as it remains the law of the land, President Grant is sworn to enforce it. The House is al most unanimously „in favor of the re peal of the law. The Senate thus far contends simply for its suspension.— In the mean time, Gen. Grant refus es to remove under it, as he is bound to do, any office-holder, except for cause. Holding rightly, we think, that a difference of opinion political ly is not sufficient cause under said law for removal. In consequence of this there have been no appointments made, except a few to fill vacancies. senator Schurz, of Missouri, Scott, of Pa., and several of the ether new Senators, made able and el )quent speeches on the subject. The latest we have cn this subject, is a special dispatch to the Phil'a. Press, on Mon day the 22nd inst. : "It is believed to-night that the vote on the civil tenure act, which will un doubtedly be taken in the Senate to morrow, will result in the passage of the House bill repealing the law. The mature reflection that has ensued pen ding the debate of last week has con vinced a majority of the Senate that it will be injudicious for them not to do so. Both the House and the Pres ident being in favor of its repeal,they are forced to assume a great respond bility if they do not repeal it, and ne cessarily would render themselves liable to the charge of seeking to re-- tain the - contr9l of the patronage of the Government against the wishes of the people and their direct represen tatives.. If the House could be bro't to the support of the suspension scheme I think the Senate would re ject the bill, but under existing cir cumstances Ido not hesitate to pre dict that it will pass by a very close vote. At one time it had ten ma jority in the Senate, but I do not think now that it has more than two or three. It is still the absorbing topic of conversation here, and until it is disposed of no business of any importance will be transacted in any of the departments. Senator Drake's proposition to suspend the law for four years is viewed in the light of an attempted compromise, but I have reason to believe that it would not be accepted by General Grant, and that if t he bill is finally sent to him in that shape he will favor the country with his first veto. He proposes to have the law repealed, and if Congress dose not see fit to repeal it now, he will, by a rigor6qs enforcement of its obnox ious provisions,.• seek -to change the opinion of the.Senat) regarding it. Saint Patrick's Day. , We notice in our local columns the pro pessi on. of St. Patrick's • Tem per .ance Society in Bellefonte,on St. Pat rick's day. While our Irish fellow citizens were enjoying themselves here, we lcarn:from , the :N. Y. Trib *une, that they. were also having a glo rious time in that city. The proces sion numbered about ten thousand.— After giving them some vc-y good counsel in regard to making their cel ebrations a little more interesting and varied than they generally do, and af ter some very well-timed and jocose remarks on the way in which the Irish lads and lasses seemed to enjoy them selves on the occssion, the Tribune adds : "Where was ever a more bard- Working, industrious, willing, and contented a population than our Irish one ! Where was there ever, on the whole, an honester and better tem pered one ! To-day we will not speak of their faults, and we are glad to say they have them in plenty like the rest of us, for without vices we couldn't have virtues, and . shouldn't be hu man. We give 'em a cordial hand of welcome, and are proud of this hard. fisted, bard-worked band of exiles.— We won't even blame them too much for being Democrats to a man, for as they understand the word it would be strange if they were not, and no cred it to them either ! • When they find out, as they. will in time, that the De mocracy they swear by here is the same in principle with the aristocracy that made their life at home a curse, and drove them out of their native land to escape starvation, they will come over to the true Democracy that, with Grant as leader, has : saved the Republic, the sham Democracy under Lee and Seymour tried to destroy,and they will come to stay. For ourselves, we do most sincerely believe that, in time, the. emigration to this country of Irish in numbers sufficient. to influence, as they have done, our manners, our customs, and cur politics, will prove of great na tional service. Their exile from Ire land has already begun to repay the cruel masters of that beautiful island with sterility for her ancient fruitful ness, with famine for her ancient abundance, and with, enmity where, if there never was, at least there might have been, the warmest friend ship. At present we, in America,see the Irish race suffering under all the faults and drawbacks that have resul ted from the blighting rule of English injustice. bigotry, and greed. But the day will surely come when, under the benign influence of institutions really free, with ample means of education, and the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happines .secured to them not merely by the technical law but by the spirit of the country as well, they will ripen into a:generous growth and show all the virtue that is in them and renew under other, but not alien skies, the glories of their earlier day.

Trib— une, having complained• that the debt of the country is increasing, that pa per opposes a flat contradiction of the assertion. The debt, it says,was over $2.757,000,000 on the first of August, and also on the Ist of September, '65; it was but $2,544,336,964 on the first inst.

AN ardent young man, on a train on the Dayton and Union Railroad, noti ced a young lady on a neighboring seat, and his admiration impelled him to drop the following note in her lap : "Miss Josephine, pardon me if I pre sume too far in thus addressing you. lam a resident of Dayton. There is something indefinable to me which impels me to ask you if you will cor respond? If in this I have given of , fence, please forgive your friend and admirer, Alfred." The train stopped at Greenville, and the indignant mai den disembarked. She was met by a stalwart brother, to whom ehe ban ded the note, at the same time poin ting out the spooney anther who was standing on :he platform. He sprang to the car, seized Alf. by the collar and threw him to the ground, and pummeled him until t7 - te train started, when he kindly lifted the crestfallen lover to his feet, and by a tremendous effort placed him on the rear car. DANIEL 'WEBSTER believed in news papers, and he used to say: is the sum that is required to patron ize a newspaper, and amply rewarded is its patron, I care not how humble and unpretending the gazette he takes. It is impossible to fill a printed sheet with matter without putting some thing in it that is worth the subscrip tion price. Every parent whose son is away from home or at school should furnish him a • newspaper. I well remember what a marked difference there was between those who Irld and had not access to newspapers.
