The Union State Central Committee had a large meeting Monday afternoon, at their rooms, No. 1105 Chestnut street. Reports from the different counties were received, and all were of the most gratifying charac ter. The following address was ordered to be published: COMMUTES ROOMS, j No. 1105 Chestnut street, > PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 3, 1-65. j jtelloic-Citizen* • —Tbe superficial observer might suppose, after the fearful struggles, sacrifices and sufferings of the last five years that we could safely relax our efforts and watchfulness, and, returning to our individ ual affairs, permit the machinery of govern ment to run itself. An intelligent and pa triotic survey of the situation, however, will not warrant any such conclu.-fon. hut will impress us more than ever with the truth and wisdom of the adage, "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." Six years ago the people lawfully elected Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States. The mi nority, enemies of our government and country, refused to submit to their defeat at the polls, and, for the first time in our histo ry, appealed from the ballot-l*x to the sword. They defiantly threw off all the ob ligations of constitutions and laws, rushed madly into civil war, and fought with malig nity and desperation for four long bloody years in the wicked attempt to overthrow and utterly destroy the government handed down by our fathers. This they did under the pretext that a State had a constitutional right to secede from the Union. The same thing had been attempted in South Carolina in 1832 ; but under the vigorous administra tion of President Jackson, the effort signally failed, and the doctrine on which it was bas ed was repudiated. But in 1856, when the Democratic party at Cincinnati nominated James Buchanan for President, they reviv ed the old State rights dogma of secession, by re adopting the Virginia and Kentucky resolutions of 1798 and 1799. as a part of their platform. And at the Charleston Con vention, in 1860, although the party there split into two parts, the one nominating Douglas and the other Breckinridge for President, both factions re adopted the same resolutions, which do not hold the relations of the States to the United States as con stituting a government in the ordinary and proper sense of the term, but declared to be merely a compact among parties having no common judge; each party ha 1 - an equal right to judge for itself, as well of infractions as of the mode and measure of redress. Under this free Democratic charter for rebellion, the election of Abraham Lincoln was claimed by the rebel States as an "in fraction 'of the 'compact,' and they chose secession and civil war as the "mode, and the destruction of the Union and of the Government as''the measure of redress.' Hence, when the war broke upon us in all its fury, we found the Demoetatic party par alyzed. It was suddenly brought face to face with the practical application of its own political creed, by its own political friends. Ilence. too. the sad demoralization and want of loyalty and patriotism shown by that party during the whole war. Those of them who preferred their country to their party and platform abandoned both platform and party, and under the flag of their country manfully rallied to put down the rebellion, while the leaders and the mass of the party did otherwise. They had so repeatedly proclaimed the right of secession they believed it, and were everywhere found justifying or executing the rebellioD, denounced every means used to suppress it; predicting the war a failure, and endeavoring to make good their predic tions. and bodily denying there was any pow er in the government to "coerce a State. The Democratic party thus acquired a repu utation for connivance at tren on and disloy alty to the country which justly consigned it to continuous and overwhelming defeats, until at the close of the war it had not a Governor or a Legislature in a single loyal State, except little Delaware and the legis lature of Kentucky. And since the Phila delphia Convention it seems to have fallen upon the expedient of other noted criminals, and resolved to sally forth under u new name. Mot until April, 18(35, were the rebels fi nally overcome, and then only by the rtower of our armies, which they could no longer withstand. There was no voluntary surren der, but their arms were stricken from their bloody hands. The great conspiracy against freedom had failed, and the armies and peo ple of eleven revolted States' were at the mercy of the conquerers, professing a wil lingness to accept any terms the victors might impose. C'oagress had then recently adjourned, and. under the law. would not assemble until the following December un less convened by the President in rxtra ses sion. The occasion seemed to he one of suf ficient novelty and importance to require a meeting of Congress, but the Prc-tdent judged differently. He proclaimed that these States had been deprried of all civil fovernment." and the Supreme Court of 'nited Suites declared the whole population thereof to be "alien enemies." The President proceeded, by proclama tions, by appointment of provisional gov ernors and otlieT means, to create govern ments for these rebellious States, and upon the annual meeting of Congress made re- A LOCAL AND GENERAL DEVOTED TO POLITICS, EDUCATION, LITERATURE AND MORALS. port ofwhat had teen done, and recommen ded the admission ol Representative*. Con gress claimed to have jurisdiction over the whole subject and proceeded ro inquire whether or not governments had been es tablished, and whether, under all the cir cumstance?, _ it tvoukl be proper to restore those rebellious people and States to their former relations and rights in the Union, without first imposing some terms upon them as security for the future? The great question i- not wether the States themselves shall be restored, but whether they shall have representation in Congress with or without terms. Our political adver saries—Democrats, rebels and their sym pathizers, North and fcoutb —say without terms and conditions, and forthwith Congress by the almost unanimous rote of all the members who sustained the war, has pro posed sundry amendments to the Constitu tion of the United States, to be submitted to the State Legislatures for ratification; and it will be the duty of the Legislature we are about to elect to approve or disapprove of these fundamental changes in the national constitution These amendments are the terms fixed by Congress on which the States lately in rebellion and their people can re sume their practical relations to the national Union. These terms may be briefly stated as follows: 1. That all persons born or naturalised in the United States shall be citizens thereof; and that ail citizens shall have equal protec tion in the enjoyment of life, liberty and property. 2. That representation shall be apportion ed among Die hftates according to numbers, but that classes disfranchised without cause shall not be counted in fixing the basis of Federal representation. 3. That all who are guilty of treason and peijury shall be ineligible to office, unless the disability be remnveJ by a two thirds vote of Congress. 4. That the validity of the national obliga tions incurred in the war shall not be ques tioned. and all rebel debts and claims for slaves shall be void. The States of Tennessee, Conner-tieut and New Hampshire, by the action of their sev eral legislatures, have already ratified these amendments by very large majorities. Our friends in Congress and out of Congress are united in the conviction that these term? are pre-eminently magnanimous, wise and just: that they are the legitimate fruits of the war, and essential to our peace and security for the future. Ry the storms of civil war some of the land marks made by our fathers were taken away, and some of the ancient foundation? laid by them were moved. Let us wisely readjust them, so that our temple of liberty may stand npon the broader and firmer foundation of univer sal liberty and impartial Justice. in March, 18tV>, the Union party assem bled in convention to nominate a candidate for Governor. It reaffirmed its patriotic principles as proclaimed and fought for du ring the right and duty of Congress to pre scribe the terms of reconstruction. On this plat form Major General John W. Geary was nominated tor Governor by a unnanimous vote, and -übsequently his nomination was enthusiastically endorsed by a large and intelligent Convention of the .Soldiers and bailors of the State. He is no obscure personage, but of the representative men of these eventful times As a civilian he has filled with ability and distinction many im portant public positions, requiring intelli gence, discretion and the highest order of integrity and administrative ability. He has been a farmer, a teacher a civil engineer a lawyer and a manufacturer. He has serv ed the people as postmaster and Mayor, of a city, as Judge of a court, and as Governor of a territory. As a volunteer soldier, he is the pride of his comrades, and an honor to his State. Ho went out from home to the Mexican war as a captain, and came back with hon ors as the colonel of his rcim nt. He en tered the service in the law.- rebellion as a colonel and fought it all the way through; having been promoted to the exalted rank of major general 'for fitness to command and,promptness to execute.' This valiant and faithful soldier wa- present at and par ticipated in sixty battles, and was four times wounded in action, but never once defeated. He made the entire circuit of the rebel con federacy. aud fought its authors and defen ders from every State that acknowledged their usurped authority. He has given to his country his firstborn son. killed in battle he has perilled his lite arid shed his bleed for the Hag and cause of our country, and he bears upon his person the honorable scars from many a well fought field. Such is the candidate presented for the suffrages of the loyal and patriotic voters of Pennsylvania. As a competitor the Democratic party has presented the Hon. 11 tester Clymer. He, 1 too, is a representative man: but it is of his party, rather than of his eountrr. His plat form and his campaign thus far may be sum- J marily comprehended in the phrase: "Up. with the rebel, and down with the negro." He is a lawyer by profession, and it is bclicv-' cd he never held any office except that of State Senator. His public record, therefore is a short one. and consists entirely of his votes and .speeches during his Senatorial career. Hut what term covers the entire jit riod when tneeonntry was torn hy dis tracting and bloody civil war and when the State was lavishly contributing hca blood and treasure, for her own defense and that of the national government. In this tremendous struggle where did Heister Cly mer stand? And what did he do? lie has made his record, and let it answer. In 1861, he voted against the hi!! for the arming of the State, and after the news of the attack on Fort Sumter had fired the hearts of our people, and thousands were rallying to the defence of our insulted flag, Mr. Clymer caused to be entered upon the journals of the Senate.his solemn protest against the bill for arming the State. In 1862, when reverses had overtaken our armies, and onr credit was strained to the utmost to keep men in the field. Mr. Clymer voted against the joint resolution providing for the collection of the taxes levied hy the United States. In 1863. Mr. Clymer voted against the bill to enable our soldiers an ! sailors to vote when absent in the service. In 1864, he dodged the vote oh the pro posed constitutional amendment allowing soldiers in the field the right to vote, and after said amendment had passed he voted against the bill to carry it into effect. He voted agaiust the bill to define and punish offenses of a treasonable character, and against the bill to legalize the payment of bounties to volunteers. In February, 1*64. in a speech in the Sen ate referring to the recent defeat fof Vallan aighara in Ohio, and cfWoodward in Penn sylvania, Mr. Clymer said' "I say now and believe that it was the gr ate-t calami ty that has yet befallen thi- country that those two men were not elected." Such is nn outline of the inglorious record of Heister Clymer, and by it, he declared on a recent occasion, he is determined to stand. His whole public career and all his official acts and public declarations of opinion hare been uiiilox inly consistent. His record may BEDFORD. PA.. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 14. 180 0. be searched in vain for a vote w sentiment evincing true loyalty to the flag or cause of the country, or which was not at the time in harmony with the prevailing political sentiment at Richmond and Charleston. Upon the records and candidates we most confidently appeal to the patriotic voters of the Keystone State for a most emphatic verdict in favor of the right. Sundry dispatches captured from the ene my disclose his mode of organization and plan of campaign. The chairman of their State Central committee, as a sort of head centre, appoints a reliable subordinate in every election district in the State, and these, from the debris of the late ''Knights of the Golden Circle,'" and such other mate rials as can be had, are required to organ ize 'mystic circles,'' or Democratic clubs, which are to register the voters, collect money Ibr the party, distribute documents and. do various other things to insure the full party vote. These are semi-military organizations, and the members are admit ted by initiation, at which the candidate "lpaces his right hand on his left breast." andentersinto most solemn pledges to "'vote against all men who are willing to give the ne gro either political or social equality in this State, or in any other State, District or Ter ritory of this country." Their watchwords are "Klepce," "Obedience," "Vigilance." It is a pity the great light of these msgnan imous patriots should be longer "concealed under a bushel, and that they tan find nothing more important to do in this great crisis of our conontrv's fate. But fore warned should be fore armed. Guard well against these insidious appeals to the preju dices of our people, and attempts to mislead them by such means. Be not deceived by the stale clamor about negro equality and negro suffrage. These favorite hobbies were supposed to have been ridden to death at our last election, when, as now, they were declared by these same men to be the great issue of the contest. They are now raised up and brought upon the track again mounted by the same riders, and destined to the same ignoble end. The Con stitution of Pennsylvania permits only white men to vot. By its terms it can be amend ed only once in every five years, and having been amended in 1?64, allowing the soldiers the right to vote, it cannot, in conformity with its own provision, be amended again mi tit lßfiy. It is hoped, therefore, our Democratic friends will restrain themselves, and not press negro suffrage upon us before authorized by the Constitution of the State. Complete your township and county or ganizations without delay ; revive at once everywhere the Dengues and Associations which proved of such vast service during the war ; let every friend feel that he has something to do in this good work, and pro ceed forthwith to do it with all his might. Exclude side issues and suppress all local quarrels and personal aspirations, and labor only for the public good. See to it that all assessments arc made in due time. Be not discouraged by the boasting and clamor of our adversaries ; they have been inglorious ly defeated in every contest for years, and cannot prevail against us. N'othingbut our base betrayal by the President and the hope of office could have galvanized them into sufficient vitality to make another fight against the victorious hosts of freedom. The physical conflict, for the time at least, is end ed," but the moral conflict between loyalty and disloyalty continues, and the grave question is, whether the one or the other shall rule the State and the nation. We urge harmony, energy, systematic, associa ted and individual labor, and a renewal of the fires of patriotism. The loyal and patriotic people of the State have nobly sustained us and the cause of the country, under the heavy pressure and discourage ment? of drafts, bereavements, taxation and carnage, and when nothing but an abiding faith in the justice of God could enable us to see the end. Surely there Kin he no faltering now, when the goal is almost reached, and when one more united rally for our principles and our flag will enable us to sec ure the ripe fruits of the laic dread ful conflict, and to gamer them safely for ourselves and our children. We stand over the ruins of a gigantic rebellion, the most formidable enemy repub lican institutions ever encountered. We stand by the graves of three hundred thou sand of our noblest men. who counted their lives well spent when offered freely for liberty and Enion. In the presence of their speechless but eloquent dust ; in the presence of doubtful ana sneeringlenemies of free government at home and abroad ; in the presence of oppressed millions, who, from beneath crashing despotism, watched our flag with tears hopes and prayers : be fore the rapidly, coming millions of the future : before a God of justice, and in the name of all that makes faithfulness to Him and honor among men, wc stand pledged to secure and maintain forever the principles for which our brothers died. By order of the Committee. F. R. JORDAN, Chairman. THE TWO POLICIES. Those who clamor for the success of the President's policy, go no further in their discussions than the theory of the matter, ' and indeed they go no further than the the ory of the Congressional policy', whenever they had occasion to contrast the two. Their manner of contrasting the two policies is somewhat thus: By the President's plan it is sought to perfect the union of the States by the immediate re-admissioD of the Sena tors and members from the revolted States, while by the plan of Congress it is proposed 1 to keep the insurrectionary States out of the I Union for an indefinite period. Nothing in fact is so far from the truth. So far as the President's policy is concern | ed. the rebellious States might just as well have been represented in Congress during the whole period of the war. It would have | been fully as reasonable to suppose that the people of those States would have assisted us in our efforts to put down the rebellion, as it is now to say that they will sincerely help us to gather the fruits of our victory and put a final end to the war and the ques tions that produced it. It is true that the President has imperiously demanded and obtained repudiation of the rebel debt. Put j can he or any of his upholders say that such a repudiation is a final settlement of the question? By no means. That act was se cured by coercion and threats of force, and it has already been suggested, and may cue day become a living question, tlnvt such leg islation is absolutely void and should not be respected. But whether such suggestion should ever be acted on or not, the matter is placed in the State Constitution where it may be changed at any moment almost, lo | deed North Carolina has just rejected the ; constitution containing this guarantee. (jrant for a moment that the President s policy prevails. The revolted States are admitted to representation in Congress, in larger number than before, as a reward for ; their rebellion, or in the language of aßich ; mond paper, as the "best fruits of the vic tory. '' All Federal control over the local ! affaire of the South will be removed. Where then will exist the right or the power to prevent the people of those States from an nulling their repudiation of the rebel debt and their clauses abolishing slavery? W here will exist the power to prevent them, with their largely increased representation, from uniting with the Copperheads in Con gress to place the rebel debt in the same sit uation with our loyal debt, and procure the paynieut or repudiation of both? What would there be to prevent the same union of power to repeal the Congressional acts for the protection of the freedmen. and. virtually re-enslave them? All these and more could and certaiuly would be done should the President succeed in his revolutionary ideas. But in the event of the sucuess of the Congressional policy, which we see no reason to doubt, an effectual barrier will be placed in the way of the rebels and their Northern friends. Although we have seen a great, display of vindictive abuse of this policy, we have yet to see the first argument against it. Indeed, it embraces nothing that the fate rebels have not promised—nothing but what they have avowed a willingness to do. If there be any sincerity in their promises, why do they not yield a cheerful acquies cnce in this policy? But thev arc not sin cere. They do not want their pledges where they will not have the power to break them. It" they incorporate them in the Na tional Constitution they are fully aware that their power over them is lost, and the war and its fruits secured against them forever. —PitUburyh Commercial. A CONSERVATIVE PRAYER. Appointed to be used by the faithful up on all important occasions, and recommend ed as the established form of* pi aver in the Conservative church during the present campaign. lord we beseech thee, if thou art not a Radical, to save our country, if Thou canst do it constitutionally ; and without enfran chising the ' negroes.' or giving Congress any of the glory ! But O, Lord, if Thou art a ' bloody Radical" and had any hand in freeing the Egyptian slaves, and drown ing their oppressors in the Red Sea, thou art n it our Lord, for, be it known uuto thee that we wish to establish a new party, .and will also set up a new Lord, rather than submit to the dictum of any one who set all the Egyptian "niggers" (? free, and killed their masters just because they were Demo crats or rebels as the Radicals call them. O, Lord, if thou art a Radical, and in. favor of "negro equality," yon will please make it known through the Wke> tiny Riars ago. It is no longer possible for the Johnson party to tamper with the soldiers of Illinois. They follow the same banner in peace that they followed in war. The Republican party sustained them in the field and now nominates one of their bravest and most trusted fellows for the first place on the State ticket, and another gallant and true soldier for the second, while the nomi nee for the thhd place has publicly declared the pleasure he would feel in resigning his own position to one of the heroes of the late war. Here is a Soldier's Ticket, which the soldiers themselves could not improve, if they should call the roll of every regi ment that went to the field from Illinois.— Chicago Tribune. WHILE Andrew Johnson is decapitating every office-holder who will not betray his principles, his Southern organs are inciting rebel mobs to hang Union men. The Mem i phis Acalanche, not satisfied with the bru tal massacre of the freedmen it provoked last spring, advises that radicals should be the victims of the next uprising. It savs : "If again we are called upon to defend ourselves and our rights from such invasion as the Radicals are striving to bring upon us through the social and political equalitx of the negro, let us not forget, in the moment of our passion, that the negro is not the chief worker in this .scheme of villainy. He is but the tool, the dupe. the catspaw to the wily, vicious, cunning monkey. Next time let us catch the monkey, and when caught let us read him a lesson of "personal liber ty. such as he little dreams of when selling his books and pictures to the deluded ne gro. and teaching him the road to "equali ty." We repeat it—John Brown's are among us still. They are teaching the negroes the hate which animates the devil. If they should succeed in inciting another riot between the whites and blacks of the South, it will be a sacred duty we owe to humanity to let the negroes pass unhurt. bnt hang their radical, fanatical leaders as high os Hitman was hung before the Jewish king's gate. That is our retribution. Spare the poor negro, but dedicate to an infamv of immortality the damnable scruff which moves in our midst but to perpetuate discord, hate, bloodshed anddeatn." Nasby at Philadelphia. Petroleum V. Nasby went to the Philadel phia Convention. Here is his own account of the way he got into the wigwam, and what came of it: T w*s a delegate to Philadelphia: I wasn't elected nor nothin.' and hedn't enny credentials, but the door uv the wigwam I passed nevertheless. The doorkeeper was a old Pimokrat, and my breath helped me, my nose, which reely blossoms like the lob ster, wus uv yoose, Dut I spect my hevin a gray coat on with a stand up collar, with a brass star onto it, wu= wot finished the bis nis. The Suihern delegates fought shy uv me, but the Northern ones, bless their souls the minit they saw the star on the collar uv my grate coat, couldn't do enuff forme. They addressed me as Kernel and Gineral. and sed "this wus truly auumneritid honor," and paid my drinks, and I succeeded in bor rowin a hundred and twenty dollars uv em the first day. I might hev doubled it, but the fellows wus tuk in so easy that no finan cierin wus required and it reely wus no amoosement. NEW ENGLAND'S INFLUENCE.— The NET? York Commercial concludes an article head ed "New England in Transition" as follows: ""There is not a Legislature in the Western or pacific Sta'es. and soon, per haps. there will be none in the South, in which New Englanders do not give the tone upon subjects of morality, education and trade. They may be too domineering too straight laced, and too set in their views, and be altogether somewhat difficult to get aloDg with, on the easy tenure common to indis criminate humanity ; but they are good to build up States, and nations, found univer sities, on the enduring basis of justice and truth. While we may regret that we may never again know the New England of the past, we rejoice in the knowledge that what ever is true and vital in the principles and characteristics of its inhabitants is destined to an undying existence upon a larger and grander sphere.
