BELLEFONTE REPUBLICAN W. W. BROWN, A. B. HUTCHISON, Terms, $2- per Annum, in Advance. BELLEFONTE, PA Wednesday Morning, June 16, '69 ADVERTISING.- The BELLEPONTE REPUBLICAN has a larger circulation than any other Republican paper pub lished in the county. Our merchants and business men will 'Please make a note of this. "Nigger" Ball—What Next? Truly the world moves. Even the Democracy are progressing. The lead ers, in town, have an eye to business. They have sense enough to see that the negro is the coming man—that he will soon be armed, as he should be, with the right of the elective fran chise. The Fifteenth Amendment, they take it, is a fixed fact, and that 'before another year rolls around, the once down-trodden and oppressed ne , gro will be an American . catizen,in the Tallest sense •of the word, armed, •equiped and strengthened by the pow er of the ballot. The leaders of the Democracy see this, and are prepar ing to "accept the situation." These men, whether with the consent of the Watchman deponent saith not, really did,on Wednesday or Thursday even (lug of last week, throw open widethe doors of their Democratic club-room - , for the free - use and behoof of their -colored brethern, (the " niggers," as GRAY would spell it) who entered the same with music and song, and danc ed all night till clear daylight,and left the place in the morning. The place where Democrats do congregate to' plot their treasen, and where,last fall, they made-speeches against the "nig -ger," and sung -psalms in honor of SEnroult and BLMR. Now,this same: hall, given up by the consent of the' .Democratic leaders, the Court House Clique, to the "nigger"—the "nigger" lor a ball-room. Oh,all ye Cxeds at once ! Whither are ye Democracy drifting? How tame and submissive the PennsValley Democra cy must be to remain quiescent while such scenes are being transacted by their leaders in Bellefonte ; but poor Penns Valley Democrats, they have been so long lashed into ranks by the crack of their leaders whip, that they have lost their manly independence— their right to think for themselves.— We think the great mistake was on the part of the "niggers." Think of your conduct—your great condescen sion ! When all eyes are fixed, rivit ed upon you—watching, scanning your every action,- why I oh, why, would you so far forget yourselves,your pride, your-dignity. your noble war record, your nunhood, as to enter a Demo, eratio club-room, even at the earnest solicitation of the "clique." Dancing is poor amusement at best; but, the idea of negroes dancing all night in a Democratic club-room, is not only dis graceful, bus a great condescension on the part of the negro. Do ye not know, ye colored Ameri can citizens ; that- it was not through any love or respect they have for you, that they gave youthe use of the club room ? It is because they look upon the adoption of the 15th Amendment as a fixed fact. It is because you will soon - be voters, and when that auspi cious day does come, yen will find these Democratic leaders down at your feet, begging, imploring, beseeching . you; aye eating dirt, for your votes. In that day •"niggers," m the estima tion of the *Watchman and the Court House Clique, will be just as respect able as an Irishman, a Penns Valley Democrat, or "any other man. Therefore, when that auspicious time arrives you will hear:every De mocratic Stump orator appealing to the negro, as they are now doing in the District of Columbia, Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi, and !Texas, imploring them to vote the Democra tic ticket. You will read in the De mocratic Watchman, and listen to ar guments as they fall from the lips of :No. H. Ouvis and other great and small Democratic lights, going to prove that the Democratic party have always been the true friend of the ne gro—the poor and oppressed every where. These remarkably consistent, in consistent leaders will then proclaim that the Democratic party as a party have always opposed the perpetua ioa of Slavery--that they have always opposed the Fugitive Slave Law, and finally secured its repeal—that they have always treated colored men with so much kindness and humanity and justice, and ;lever believed they had no rights that white men are bound to respect. It will really be amusing to hear ORVIS and MEEK and all that ilk, la boring to convince their colored breth ren who dance in their club room, that theyhave always cheerfully aided fugitive - slaves to - escape—that they Approved the proclamation of eman cipation, and finally abolished sla- Tery ;—that they secured for colored men the right to vote and hold office and we almost imagine we can see the eloquent Onvis in one of his most powerful appeals summing up the whole matter and declaring, to his colored brethren the invaluable servi nets to tbem,by the Democratic party, and the base ingratitude of which they must be guilty, it they refuse to vote the Democratic ticket. Negroes of Bellefonte and Pennsylvania do not be bamboozled by these fellows—do net let them pull the wool of your eyes. Befuse to dance in their club room— keep your eyes wide open—stand fast and see the glory of the Lord. A Word to Irishmen. We select the following extracts from a late issue of the United _lrishman, a paper of talent and great influence, published in Buffalo, N. Y., and cir culating in the Northern, Northeast ern, and Western States, and also in Canada. It is a true exponent of the feeling and opinions of the Irish citi zens in regard to the welfare of their native land and the land of their adop tion : ' E DITORS Let us, then, at once,state-the plain truth, that the Democratic party, as at present managed and led, is pro-Eng lish intensely, or, at least, is rapidly becoming such: Not a Democratic or gan can we pick up without finding ev idence to that effect. From the day that the Senate rejected the Claren don-Johnson treaty, the entire press of that party have been denouncing all who displayed the least spirit of hos— tility to England, and all their efforts are devoted to the denunciation of any proposition looking toward a bold and resolutepolicy in the dealing with the British Government. * * * -* * Sumner, since he proclaimed the crimes of England, has been argued against day by day, and Chandler, for having proposed speedy satisfaction or fight, has been blackguarded and ridi culed without mercy or cessation. Referring to its fornier attachment of its countrymen to the Democratic party, the Irishman, continues: The ties that formerly bound them, as with bands of steel, to the Democ racy have been greatly loosened ; it would only require a little longer con tinuance in dpro-English policyon its part to induce them to -throw them off altogether, and forever. The Irish people of the United States are fast awakening to the fact, that their best interests dictate their adhesion to the great party of liberty and progress in the United States.— Particularly since 1861 have the scales which dimmed their vision been falling from their eyes. With amazement, all the more intenseM.= their long adhe rence to and confidence 'in the friend ship of the Democracy, our Irish fel low-citizens saw the coalition of Eng land avid the Copperheads - of America to compass the downfall of the Gov— ernment of their adopted country. So shocking :was this base conspiracy, and so clearly was the true character of their party allies in the United States laid bare, that brave, and loyal Irish men everywhere revolted at the spec tacle, and, throwing their swords into the contest on the side of the Union, fought with their natural heroism, and either emerged from the struggle with resplendent honor or found glorious deaths on the field of battle. The brave words of Archbishop HuonEs during the war, coming as they did from such a high ecclesiastical source, did much to break the domination of the Democ racy over the Irishmen of this country, and render them nobly loyal instead of recreant to the cause of the Union. For years Ireland has been pouring her living weight of woe into all parts of America. Ground down beneath the heel of British tyranny, they seek, and not in vain, in the United States immunities from the persecutions and oppressions of England, and hope to find in our great Republic demonstra tions of sympathy for their -vrongs. They find the first under a Government conducted on the true principles ofjus tice and liberty ; the second they re ceive, not from the allies of England in America, but froM their sincere fi rends of the great Republican party. Proofs are not wanting to show the real hos tility of the Democracy to the best and dearest interests of the Irishmen. To day the dissentient voices of those op posed to the just and equitable de— mands made by Senator SUMNER in his late speech are those of so-called Democrats, who applaud every utter ance of the British press denunciatory of the views expressed by Mr SUMNER, which are , endorsed by.our loyal coma , trymen everywhere. " Call you this backing of your friends ?" Of those Irishmen who yet retain their connec tion with the Democracy, we ask : In case of a war between the U. States— perhaps improbable,-but certainly not impossible—will you not be forced by your own solemn convictions of duty, by the love you bear not only your na tive but your adopted country, to sever your present degrading alliance with Ireland's foes, the mockers of her mis • eries, in America,otherwise your pseu do friends, the Democrats ? The ques• tiou needs no answer. Let this ques— tion of political preference receive your serious consideration, and you will find that not only, your moral sense but your material interests demand your identification with the great Republi can party. IN an article on the "Prospects in the State," the Scranton Reimblican says that it dose not think Govei• or Geary's nomination a forectone con clusion, but admits that he has a long lead of any competitor. It admits Governor Geary's administration has been a conscientious, safe and credi table one, and says ; • But we- press Mr. Ketcham as a man of better abilities of equal hon esty, and whose services to the Re publican party of Pennsylvania have been infinitely greater than General Geary has ever had the opportunity to render. If the State Convention could appreciate in advance the pleas lief its members would feel at the way Ketcham would cut into the big Democratic majorities in the anthra cite mining district they could not be induced to throw him over. It is use less to again go over the grounds, so . often repeated of the special claims on the Republicans of the minority coun ties. Our friends.in the other parts of the State will never adequately ap. preciate our urgency on this point until they have the misfortune to be brought under the harrow of an over whelming Democratic majority them selves—a misfortune, however, which not even our strenuous desire to open their eyes can induce us to wish them. Letter From Montana. EDS. REPUBLICAN. —There has been a lapse of one month since I last wrote you, and in that time I have peen en abled to gather a few items which may interest your readers, and certainly are epochs in the history of our Territory. Our fair city of Helena has just been visited by the most destructive fire yet chronicled for 1869. Although but three hours passed before its ragings were checked, in that space of time over three hundred buildings were burned. The loss:(to far summed up, amounts to over $800,000; and hard ly has the smoke died away from the mouldering ruins, before a new Hele na, in blocks of brick and granite, has sprung up, Phoenix-like, in the ashes of the old one , attesting that alike in wealth and strength of energy, she can not be outclassed in America. Of the lay of the land,except in bor dering Territories. there is no similari ty of Montana with any other portion of the globe; the Rocky Mountains travel her entire length and breadth; without any regularity of line, but in every direction, some joining midways against the sides of others, and though numerous, are of such magnitude that we can boast of valleys fine as any in Pennsylvania. With exception of a few cotton-wood and willow trees on the river banks, the low-lands are de void of trees and shrubbery, and this barrenness extends half-way up the mountain sides. The farmer (called " ranchmen" here) has much to contend with,blight ing frosts visit them many times dur ing the summer, and for the past four years great swarms of army grasshop . pers, that shadowed the sun, swept over the "ranches," giving broad fields and even the wild-grass prariea a dead and sodden appearance. While your independent farmer reader can com placently sit in their doors and watch the crop•refreshing rain, here the ranchmen are plodding " knee-up" in mud to their ditches and irrigate their. land. Here, too, is a lesson for your farmers to learn,that often during great drouths they make no use of the fine streams that run by them, but allow their corn and wheat to want for water and warp to ruin. With all these draw- backs, still our ranchmen are very successful, and though true, so fabu‘ loos are the-amount cereals and vege- tables produced, that I will not risk tasking the credulity of your readers by reciting them. But the gold and. silver mines are the great lode-stars of attraction here, and there is not a •single man of the many thousands - who have come to Montana, but was impuhed by the greed for gold, and though the gulch— es and hills are rich beyond dispute,not one in a thousand betters his fortune, for gold lies where it wisteth, and the miner has little certainty, but much toil in finding it. The amount, up to close of last year, is set clown by care- fill staticians at sq millions as the pro ducts of the placer diggings ; add to this fifteen millions from the quartz mines, 'and we have a total yield of over one hundred millions from Mon tana for the last seven years, to a pop ulation at no time exceeding sixty thou sand men. The soei3ty of Montana (to-clay at its best) is made up of a queer mix— ture of characters—good, bad and vil— lianious—and of human beings of al most every color, nationality and clime. Here no reckonings are kept of the Sabbath days, unless that they are mademost conspicuous of the seven, by scenes of rioting. We have many "institutions" unknown in your civil- ized East, only two of which we will attempt a description—the " Hurdy- Gurdy Hall" and Beer Saloon. The Hurday Hall—a large,brilliant lighted room, sweetly aranzotized with fibacco smo!i - e and cheap provisions, liquors, one half crowded almost to suffocation with drinking and drunken men ; the other half, a rail enclosure, inside of which arc eight or ten " Hurdle G-ur dies," mostly of Teutonic blood, dress ed in gorgeous and rich, but grotesque attire, and we may add, the ugliest, brazon-faced wantons to be found any where. Standing beside them,an equal number of men, their partners for the dance, who have braced their courage against the chitlings of shame by re peated draughts of rum ;. the violins strike up,the dance begins,and so con— tinues the scene we have painted you,• all night long, until day dawns again In the Beer Saloon are to be found the same noisy crowds, drinking, card playing and listening to the most ob scene of jokes and songs from low male and female comedians, on a stage at one end of the saloon, while at the other end are Faro tables surround ed by men gambling away their gold, dug with aching backs and blistered hands, and we do not exaggerate when we say that one•fourth of these men, while they are drinking, gambling and cajoling with wantons, have; far-away in their old homes, hoping, trust ing, patient wives and scan-clad little ones looking to them for a better life. But in justice to Montana we must say that,both in morality and law-abiding, she has made wondrous strides within the past four years; and for the sake of her beautiful landscapes, fine cli mate and boundless wealth we, hope for her far greater adyance in civiliza tion, with churches in every valley, mining town and city, the chime of whose sweet tongued meeting bells will drive away her vice and drown these hell-wrought revelries. From daily seeing the Indian in his listless, lazy and filthy mode of life, and knowing his great treachery, we almost, to a man, have come to regard him as possessing but little more than animal instinct, and as the most arrant coward of anything in - human shape but our theory and even prejudices have been considerably staggered by a little episode of two weeks ago. Two young braves, one belonging the Gros ventres and the other to the Assird boine tribe, were enamored of a young Asssiniboine Squaw, and with the chivalry of " ye Knight of ye olden time," appealed to the abitrament of the arms of war. The scene was a - wild romantic one, in a deep and narrow valley, hemmed in by lofty mountains, on opposite mossy banks of a clear noisy brook, stood the warriors, one armed with a rifle, the other with a re volver. To the righfof them, squatted in grim silence, the AssiniAoine tribe, on the left the herald for the strife, and aloof from all,. stood the young squaw, with, perhaps, no less of grace and pride than Gyneth,Bride of Thier main— "As with truncheon raised she sat, The arbitrese of mortal fate,'? as the bloody tourney forher hand,- of the KnightS of the Round Table at Whitesuntide. (To Eds. REPUBLI-. CAN—see Scott's Poems). The signal is given—two deadly shots with 'report as one—and the warriors fall,one pier ced through the brain and the other through the heart. The relatives of the Assiniboine and the young squaw commence their wierd-like death chant for a safe journey of the two for the "Spidt Laud," while the rest of the. tribe file off insolemm majesty, their stolid faces giving no token of their feelings of the combat. • On the Bth inst„ a very brisk little .. engagement took place between a band of indians7belonging to the Santee tribe of Sioux, and a settlement of white hunters and trappers on the Muscle shell River. -* * * LFor full account of which, see fait page of this issue.—Ens. I The tivriter, however, failed to men= tion the packing of several barrels, in tended as a donation for a right-royal canabalistic barbacue to our coming Quaker Indian Commisaioners.- The Indians made the attack on the settle ment intending . a general massacree, and all rejoice at their defeat; and tho'. the mutilation of the dead may look savage-like to you, yet as a reason to justify the act, is the belief among the Indians, that if those slain are scalped and otherwise disfigured it debars their entrance to the " Happy Hunting Grounds." S. T. M. ITFLE,NA, M. T. May 26, 1869 Ou'r Washiligton Letter. WASLII NC:TON, D. (1. June 11, 1860..1: D.EAltOug city was greatly excited yesterday morning, jti the rumor or a terrible accideut which was raid to have befallen the'through New York train" which left Washing ton on Wednesday evening at 9 P. M., as the President and his family 'were known to be on board, on their way to attend the examinations t West Point, many fears for their safe ty, and some suspicions of foul play, were entertained,which, however,were quickly dispelled by the arrival of reli able information from the scene of the disaster. It appears that just after leaving An napolis June'n,while going thro' a cut, the cow-catcher struck a cow lying on the track, and threw it off ; but the cow, striking 4gainst the bank of the cut, rolled back on the track, throwing the smoking car and the two cars next to it, off the track, and thereby caus ing a general smash-up. Strange, as it may seem, no one was killed, and but 15 or 20 at all injured—none fatal ly it is hoped. The special car con taning the President's party was not thrown from the track, nor were the inmates aware of the accident until in formed thereof by other passengers.— Information of the accident was tele graphed at once to Washington and Baltimore. Workmen and cars were at once dispatched to the spot., and by 3, A. M., of Thursday morning, the train was again on its way. On Wednesday the National Divis , ion of the Sons of Temperance • of N. America, began its 25th animal ses sion, the place of meeting being "Car , roll Hall," in this city. Representa tives are in attendance from nearly ev ery State, Territory and Province in the United States and the Dominion Canada. On Wednesday afternoon the delegates called on the President, and were kindly received. Dr. Lees, of England, addressed the President briefly, alluding to the earnest good feeling borne by the bulk of the Eng lish nation toward America, newspa pers and ministers to the contrary not withstanding. The President respon ded with appropriate words, and after an hour of social concourse the dele. gates -returned to the Hall highly pleas ed with their reception. In the evening a " reception" was tendered to the National Division by the Grand Division of the District of Columbia. The spacious auditorium of the "Congregational Church" was crowded with the elite of the city, and the incidents of the evening will, long be remembered With pleasure and in , terest by those present. The National Division was introdu ced by Maj. Gen. 0. 0. Howard, U. S. A., and a Poem of Welcome was read by Dr. Chas. W. Hills, Worthy Patriarch of Howard Division. The most noticeable addresses were those of Hon. R. M. Foust, of Pa. f Most Worthy Patriarch.; F. M. Bradly, Esq.,•of 'Washington, D. C. ; Dr. J. J. Bradford,Ky;. Hon. J. N. Stearns, of N. Y. ; Hon. 0. D.Witmore,of N• Brunswick : and Dr. Lees, of England. The latter gentlemen was encoreclond spoke of the ties which ought to bind England and America in harmony to gether. The. Band in attendance ren. dereil the National airs: " Hail Co lumbia,"and "God Save the Queen," as well as many others in fine style. On Thursday evening the National Division attended the Temperance Festival at Carroll Hall, and to-day, at 4P. M., they. ill start on an ex ovrsion to Mount Vernon. The ex ercises to be had there will be of an extremely interesting chixacter,and a large body of spectators will doubtless be in attendance. The session of the National Division will long be looked back upon as one to be remembered, -and the Grand Division of the Dist. of Columbia, deserve much praise for the generous and hospitable manner in which they have entertained their 'visitors. On yesterday evening the " Con gregational Church" was agairi crowd ed to its utmost capacity, on the oc casion of the Fourth Annual Com mencement of Columbian Law Col lege. Addresses were delivered by Hon. E. C. Banfleld, Solicitor of the Treasury ; Hon. Samuel Tyler, L. L. .D., Tnstructor of the Senior Class,and Hon. W. A. Richardson, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,which ware listened to with great interest and at tention. The announcement of each graduate's name, and his appearance before the audience was the signal for bursts of applause from his particular friends, of whom each one appeard to have an unlimited number. The whole building looked like a vast conserva tory, and as soon as the Diplomas were awarded, the boquets and bas kets began to pour toward the stage. Several of the graduates were obliged to procure assistance for the purpose of taking their floral gifts home. Mr. T. A. Lambert, of Washington,- was also the recipient df a' ,magnificent diamond ring. The class numbered seventy-two persons, representing 18 States and Disticts. The Pennsylvanians included in this number, were .Messrs. Frank Bell, H. Ferguson, Frank Geise, G. W. Guthrie, D. S. Keller, R. H. T. Lei pold and C. W. Wilson. The District of Columbia was most largely repre sented as a matter of course. • The Penn'a.Republican Association met on the 6th inst., and elected five delegates to the State Convention, of whom our friend Dan Welch is one. The delegates were instructed to use all honorable efforts to :secure the re nomination of GOT. Geary. Truly Yours, KAPPA. NOTHING was ever more indecent than the attacks of some of the news papers upon the bold men who prose cuted the Pacific Railroad, except the assaults of the same journal upon those who stand ready to build the other great lines. On this subject yesterday's New York Tribune justly says: We remember how long and bow vainly we look edifor men to undertake this - work. We remember how Science demonstrated its perils, Experience maintained itsimpraeticabilicy, Capi tal shrank from its gigantic cost and uncertain returns. At last the gentle men who subsequently became the u)rporators of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific . Railroad stepped. for— ward. When Congress hesitated, they begged, argued, lobbied, till they se, cured charters. When Wall street sneered and preferred copper mines and corners in Erie, they furnished the capital. When the great money centres of the world, and the great governments of the world, believed that this nation was, drifting helpless ly into disruption and anarchy, their sublime faith in its future enabled them to prosecute,in the midst of war, an undertaking mightier than any other country, in its peaceful prime, bad ever essayed. Through embar rassment and distrust at home as to the national future, through natural obstacles that had hitherto been re. garded almost or quite insuperable, through frontier hostilities and the barrenness of the great plains and the desolation of the mountains, they have steadily held their way. To-day wit nesses their final triumph achieved years before the limit granted by their charters. We would not take one leaf let from their manfully won laurels. What we have said in the past of their conduct we have said. To day we re call only their services, their bravery in the midst of danger, their confi dence in the midst of discouragement, the wonderful energy they displayed, the risks they took, and the great tri umph they have won. THE Pittsburgh Pose says of its pro bible candidate for Governor this fall, that he (ASA PACKER) "runs three railroads and owns one, ALL in the interest of N. York." It is well enough to make a record of such statements from the recognized "orgac."
