Indignation mul disgust, ns well in tills
country its In England. TJio English
jonnmls In commenting upon It, how-
uvcr, havo assigned to Mr.Suuinur n do
urea of Itnirortnnco to which ho is ontl
tied neither by tho judgment of his as
sociates in tho Souatc nor hy thu com
'munity at largo. Ills position as Chair
man of the Committee on Foreign Ro-
lrttlons no ilouht iravo rlso to tho lm-
tirmsion, which was strengthened by
tho refusal of tho Senate to support tho
proposed International convention to
wet tie and adjust tho claims alluded to,
Nothing further from tho truth can bo
imagined. Mr. Sumner hits never been
thu Biio cosmtin of .uny largo number of
Senators, nor nro tho.su whoso ycars,ox
perlenco or ability command respect, to
bo found among his supporters. It is a
peculiarity of Mr, Sumner that lio is
unable to mouutaliubby without riding
it to death, whilst thu successful round
iug of his oratorical periods and the
happy introduction of a classical quo
tation hero and there, aro matters, Of
far greater moment to him than the ef
fect which ids words may produce. He
nover has, nor wlllho over comprehend
tho fact that Charles Sumner personally
nnd Charles Sumner in an ofllcial point
of view should bu.two entirely distinct
and separrtto individuals, and licnco his
speeches as Senator, aro never divested
of that perfectly surfacocharactcr wlilch
mark him as n man. It is a mistake to
supposo that hia utterances in the Sen
ate havo weight with tho more intelli
gent and fair minded members; no
whero is ho tnoro thoroughly under
stood nnd appreciated than in that
body. UU lato speech 'is utterly pre
posterous and chimerical and is what
might bo expected to emanate from one
who is always ready to snerlllee logic
for an apt flotation or common sense
for a rhetorical ilourish. Tho unpleas
ant feelings which ho lias succeeded in
calling forth will bo but transitory
when his truo valuo in tho country is
properly understood. There is no dan
ger of such counsel? being adopted, for
thero are too many far seeing public
men who will opposo tho absurd but
dangerous schemes of Mr. Sumner and
tho small eliquo who acknowledge him
as an orator and (Heaven save tho
mark I) as a Statesman. It is rather re
markablo .that ono whoso ' volco is still
for war," when others are to do the
lighting should porralt'tho tamo voice
loiuucomu yei more sn wnen uiu iuuv

Sumner neither understands the valuo
of words when delivered by himself
nor wlion addressed and very pert!
uently also, (o his own august and val
uable person.
Subscriptions Received Dally t
There, is, assuredly, no moro certain
method to corrupt and debauch a pa-
Hon than tho bestowal of government
patronago in return for personal favors
received. Tho principle though a new
ouoin this country, Is not unknown
elsowhero, having been practiced' at
different periods in the administration
of affairs in Great .Britain, producing
invariably the same results; tho dis
grace and destruction of tho party in
power and tho loss of national honor
and 'morality. No ono can doubt, iu'
viow of tho ajipointmenf s which have
characterized the prcsont administra
tion, that tills system of rewards pro
vails amongst us. At tho termination
of thu war, thooxultant people found
vent for their superabundant gratitudo
In rowjardingcertain military men with
valuablo presents, but the gifts which
might, perhaps, bo received by tho suc
cessful soldier, a President should bo
chary of accepting. The Chief Magis
trate should, like Cmsar'.s wifo,be abovo
suspicion. Tho presentations which
aro frequently made at tho Whito liouso
may bo simply expressions of gratitude,
but, to say tho.lcast, they aro open to
tho suspicion of being otherwise. Wlieti
per.-.onal friends, relations and those
whoso names aro found in subscription
lists, suddenly appear as appointees to
important olllces, it is as well for deli
cate and honoinhlo men to avoid oven

Case vf David Iicwis : Mr. l.owls, a
leading citizen and reputable gentleman
of Sugarlimf township, was taken out
of his bed at 11 o'clock at 'night of tho
day. before thu Statu election of 1801, by
soldiers, mid compelled to go with them
to tho military Camp at Coleman's, six
miles distant. Ho was kept there with
out examination over election day nnd
until 11 o'clock on tho day following,
wIilii Capt.Sho.t who was in command
at tho caipp examliied.and discharged
him. Thcro wns uu pretcusa that ho
had committed any criminal ofl'ense.nnd
tho questions asked him were only np-
proprluto to him in thu character of a
witness. Mr. Lewis was Ufty-threo
years of uge, and would at any tlmo
havo attended, upon request, nt tho
camp or elsowhero In thu neighborhood,
to answer interrogatories. Of courso ho
was arrested simply to prevent him
from polling his voto at tho Sugarloaf
election, and after that object was ae
compllshed ho was permitted to go
homo nnd nover furtiicr called In quf
tlon. Wo am conceive of nothing better
suited to tho men concerned In tho nr
rest of Mr. Lewis and tho defrauding
him of his voto.than their Incarceration
for a fow years in the penitentiary, with
hard labor.
Case of fJzekiel Cole : Mr. Colo was
also a citizen of Sugarloaf township, of
reputable standing, not liablo to mili
tary duty nor charged with any ollcnce,
Ho tlkewiso was seized tho night beforo
tho election by soldiers, taken seven
miles to tho Coleman Camp, kept over
election day and discharged tho morn
ing afterwards. Tho form of putting a
fow questions to him was gono through
with, and ho, was told ho might go
homo. In his caso also a lawful voter
was silenced, and tho election return of
Sugarloaf township slightly Improved
for tho Radical party.
Case of Daniel D. Jfartman : This
gentleman, who was a cripplo and ono
of tho, election olllccrs of Benton town
ship, was solzed on election morning at
tho place of voting and hurried, air to
tho Camp soveral- miles distant. This
was ono of, tho acts intended to iutimi
dalo voters and keep them away from
tho polls. Mr. H. was, however, dis
charged sometimo during thosatuo day
and permitted to go homo as ho best
could. Thcro was no reason at all for
his arrest except tho political ono abovo
mentioned.
A statement was mado by Mr. Lewis
concerning Ids own arrest and thoso of
tho other gentlemen abovo namcdshort
ty after they occurred, which was pub
lished in thu Columbia Democratot Nov.
12th, 1801. This statement of ills, thus

tho documents which cast light upon
our subject, enabling all Independent
observers to form n moro certain opinion
of tho objects of tho Invasion, nnd to

STATEMENT OF DAVID LEWIS.
"I reside in Sugarloaf township, Co
lumbia County. On Monday night,
October 10th, (tho night beforo tho elec
tion,) soldiers came to my houso andar
rested me. It was about 11 o'clock, and
I had been sometimo in bed nnd asleep.
Thcro wcro two soldiers nt tho house.
A third ono was in tiio road having in
chargo Ezckiel Colo, who had been ar
rested at his houso a rullo distant, and
from ids bed as ho informed mo. I was
taken with Colo to th o camp below Ben
ton, on tho Coleman farm, about six
miles, arriving thero shortly after mid
night. I was thcro put under guard
and kept until Wednesday without any
examination or Information as to tho
causo of arrest. About an hour after
Colo and I arrived In camp, Rov. Mr.
Rutnn was brought in, (probably bo
twecn ono and two o'clock,) and on
Tuesday morning Daniel B. Hartman,
ono of tho election bord of Benton
township, was brough in. Neither I
nor any of tho others were drafted men,
I am 03 years of ago, tho others aro
about tho samo ago; except' Hartman,
who Is a cripple.
On Wednesday morning Colo was
called up,and after somequestious asked
him, was discharged. I was called up
about 11 o'clock and asked soveral ques
tions by Capt. Short, which I answered.
Ho then consulted with a man named
Pealer commonly .called " Professor
Pealer" for a fuw moments, and then
told mo I was dismissod for tho present,
lie ordered tho guard to lot mo go. I
told him I would havo thanked him
kindly if ho had called mo up tho day
beforo and asked mo those questions.
Ho bald ho could not attend toil, Hart
man had been examined thu day beforo
and released. '
Rutan, Colo and myself, wcro legal
voters, and wo were deprived of our
votes by these night arrests and by bo-
ing kept in custody over election-day,
We had all, as well as Hartman, been
living openly at our homes for somo
tlmo beforo.
I would havo answered all tho ques
Hons put to mo by Capt. Short, at uny
time, without hesitation, and. would
havo attended for that purpose at tho
Camp or any other place in tho neigh
borhood, upon reason ablo notice.

Ctfa of Thomas Downs : Thomas
Downs was an elector of Bloom town
ship in 1801, a son-in-law to Michael
Casey an old and well known citizen,
and had been a soldier In servico In tho
war. Ho enlisted in May 1601 nnd
served a year and a half when ho was
taken prisoner. Ho was subsequently
paroled and reported himself to our
military authorities at Annapolis by
whom ho was directed to go homo and
remain thcro until called for. Ho iiov
er received uny uotico that ho wa3 ex
changed nor any information that re
nowed servico under ids enlistment
was required. In the summer of 1804,
however, ho was drafted under tho con
scription law, reported himself in a
proper manner, paid 300 dollars com
mutation money, and was discharged
from tho draft. Ho had been oponly at
Bloomsburg many months beforo tho
general election hi 1801 when, upon go
Ing to tho placo of election and ap.
preaching tho polls, ticket In hand, ho
was seized, pulled away and taken Into
custody by soldiers of tho Doputy Pro
vost Marshal's guard. Ho was held by
them very carefully, permitted to go
homo for his dinner but notpormittod
to approach tho Court Houso whero tho
election was held, and was subsequently
forwarded ns an arrested soldier to
Georgetown In tho District of Colum
bia-, yriilsnrrcst'bn election day filled
tho liadlcals with delight. Anothor
votOjWas giuneii, or minor anoincr vot
er was silenced, and for tho tlmo Capt.
Silver" and his 'soldiers were in high
credit.
Tho Editor of this Journal becamo
fully acquainted with tho facts of Mr.
Down's caso sub36quenlly,nnd upon his
energetic remonstrance to tho Provost
Marshal General regarding tho hardship
of ids case, tho lnjustlco dono lilm, nnd
tho posltlvo illegality of holding him
to doublo servico that is, under his
enlistment nnd under tho draft secured
tho refunding to his wlfo of tho $300
commutation paU by him. Tills was
accomplished after soma expenso and
much troublo in Jujio 1SG5.
Now Mr. Downs was n legal voter,
entitled to excrclso his right ns sucli
cither at Bloomsburg or in tho nrmy.
Ho was pulled nway from tho election
simply and only becauso ho was about
to voto against tho Radical party, and
wo' cannot doubt that ho would not
havo been arrested nt all if ho had not
attempted to voto, or, attempting to
voto had obtained his ticket of n Radi
cal ngent. It Is truo that Downs after his
arrest wns held to servo for n balanco of
ills original term of enlistment nnd
that too without compensation, by the
Judgment of n Court Martial. But wo
havo always thought this judgment op
pressive If not irregular, and even if it
wcro not, his arrest as mado at Blooms
burg could not bo Justified. A thrco
year term of enlistment entered upon
in May 1801 would cxpiro in tho spring
of 180 1, whereas tho arrest was mndo in
October following. 'Besides, his enrol
ment nnd tho drawing of his nnmo in a
draft in tho summer of 1801; tho accep
tance from him of commutation money
and tho giving to him of a discharge
from military servico for tho tlmo of
tho draft, nil of them open, ofllcial nets
of tho military authorities, wcro flatly
Inconsistent with any claim upon him
for servico under his enlistment, And,
beforonny tribunal In which legal prin
ciples nro regarded and careful Justice
administered, would bo held to conclude
tho Government from nsscrting against
him any such claim.
Again, ho had exactly followed tho
direction given lilm nfter ho was parol
ed nnd attempted to shirk no obligation,
Why was ho not informed that thero
was still a claim upon him under tho
enlistment (if that was to ho insisted
upon) and an opportunity given him to
report, to explain or to mako defenco?
Why was ho permitted to respond fully
to tho requirement of tho draft without
notico or pretense of sucli prior claim
upon ids servico V Why was ho permit
ted to go about liis prlvuto business for
many months under tho very eyo of
those who represented tho military
power in tliis county, without arrest
and without notico, only to bo solzed
and hurried off when ho was approach
ing tho polls 1 Wo havo given tho only
answerheso questions admit of. He
was arrested and punished only becauso
ho would not voto with tho men who hd
power to persecuto him and who had
no scruples about using their power un.
Justly. Wo will only add, that Mr,
Downs complains that his ccrtiucato of
discharge from the draft was taken from
him, or stolen from liim,at Georgetown,
whereby ho was proventcd from pro
ducing it upon ids trial.
Case of Daniel II. Fey;lr. Daniel
II. Fry of Main township had fallen
into an unfortunate habit (along with
nlno-tenths of his neighbors) of voting
tho Democratic ticket. His caso requir
ed attention and ho was waited upon
(he day before the election (Monday,
October lOtli, 1801), by soldiers and ar
rested by them. Mr. Fry stared upon
Ids captors and Inquired tho causo of
his. arrest. Thoy told him ho was a de
serter, which statement put Mr. Fry
into a stato of completo bewilderment.
Ho protested ho could not understand
tho accusation ; that ho had never been
In military Bcrvice even at a militia
training much less in a rogular forco ;
that ho had nover enlisted or been draft
ed for tho war, nor had ho been inform
ed in any manner that his military abil
ities wcro required by tho Government.
Tho answer to all his protestations was,
that 'orders must bo executed,' and ho
was brought forthwith across tho Sus
quehanna to Bloomsburg nnd presently
found himself thrust like a felon into
tho county Jail. Tho thick Jail door
closed behind lilm and its iron chain
was hooked securely. All this was
quito a now oxpcrlenco to Mr. Fry, tho
idea oven of going to' jail never having
beforo entered his mind, but ho sum
moned ids courage and recollecting that
his friend Mr. Michael F. Eycrly resid
ed hereabouts ho sent for him opened
to lilm his situation and requested his
friendly aid. Mr. Eycrly was skilled in
tho German language, had somo inkling
of tho law, and naturally sympathized
with Mr. F. in his "pursuit of knowl
edge under difficulties." His selection
as adviser oud friend was therefore
Judicious. It happened also that the
cider Fry had followed tho younger to
Bloomsburg and that holikowiso was
inquisitivo as to tho causes of his son's
arrest. Ho had brought lilm up "to tho
best of Ids knowledge and belief" In a
proper manner, and was astonished and
grieved to find not only that lio was tho
lnmato of a public jail but that ho had
concealed his iniquity (whatover it
might bo) from parental Inspection nnd
reproof.
Mr. Eyeriy nnd Mr. Fry scnIor,proso
cutcd their researches for some tlmo
without result! The arrest continued a
profound mystery to client, counsel,
parent and public. But at length Capt,
Silver opened a little the road of Inves
tigation, for ho was found competent
not only to execute tho law but to ex
pound it also. His exposition was to
tho following purport : 'Truo it was,1
(he said) 'that Daniel II. Fry had not
been in fact drafted into tho military
servico or notified to appear,iu he ought
to hare been; that Daniel Fry, tho father,
had been drawn in tho draft, had been
notified to appear nnd had duly reported
himself to tho Board of Enrolment,
but this teas all a mistake, tho proceed
ing ought to have been upon Daniel II.
Fry, therefore the latter had been seized
as a deserter V Ho might havo added,
llko anothor Dogberry, that though this
was not 'crowner quest law' It was good
Pnnost Marshal law, which had be
come to ail Intents and purposes, "tho
law of tho land."
His explanation not being satisfactory,
affidavit? of the facts wero at onto pro
pared and sworn to & application mado
to the Dep. Prov. Marshal to discharge
Mr. Fry, parolo him, to tako ball for
his appearance etc., but all to no pur
pose. Ho was held In conilcraont ie-
yond election-day when upon orucis
from tho military nutliorities ni Harris
burghowasdischnrged upon tho ground
Hint liis nrrest was lllcgal.unautliorlzcd,
and improper. Wo will add, that n
wns clearlv oulraircous nnd criminal al
so, and that tho solo motlvo for making
It wns to doprlvo Mr. Fry of his voto
and to affect tho result of tho election.
Considering tho time when tiio arrest
was mado nnd tho circumstances wmcn
attended and followed it, this conclu
sion is Inevitable. And tho pretext put
forword for ids arrest Is too absurd and
preposterous, to merit tho slightest at
tention: It merits only contempt.

It Is too lato to talk of tho import ancc
of insuring one's life for tho benefit of
thoso dependent upon him. Whatjwas
somo years ago accounted by many
scrupulous and doubting ones as
tempting of Providenco" has becomo
tho recognized duty, as surely duo to
a man's family as tho daily labor for
bread, clothes, and a homo. Tho num
ber of now insuranco companies which
nro yearly started upon their courso
prove tho extent of tho popular feeling
in favor of this beniflcent provision.
Tho two plans upon which insuranco is
offered tho Stock and tho Mutual are
industriously presented by their rcspec
tlvo adherents, and the merits of both
fully discussed.
A significant indication of tho popu
lar cholco is found in tho great success
of tho National Lifo Insurance Com
pany of America, which began business
in August last, nnd has, slnco that time,
been rapidly .extending its agencies
throughout tho country, ns well as in
tho dominion of Canada. Upon tho
first of May. only nino months after its
beginning work, tho Company hnd is
sued flvo thousand policies a success
unprecedented in tho history of insur
ance Tins is a purely stock company.
for which there is this to say: that
while It docs not always mako as glow
ing promises to tho insured as some of
tho companies organized upon tho other
plan, it faithfully fulfills overy letter of
tho plain business contract which it
makca with its customers. It has low
rates for a' certain fixed return; thero
aro no possiblo uncertainties of notes or
dividends, and no complication's or dis
appointments nt tho death of tho insur
ed. Tho simplicity of tho system, and
tho certainty of tho position occupied,
are recommendations too strong to bo
overlooked.
Wo havo spoken of tho largo business
already dono by this Company. It has
also mot with losses by dcatii of tho
insured, but tlieso losses have been of
such a character and so promptly ml
justed, that they have strengthened tho
Company, whero tho circumstances
wero known. Rev. Lambert S. Fine, a
cicagymnn of Troy, Bradford Co., Pa.,
paid $100.23 on December 1st, 1S0S, fora
$5,000 policy. Ho died March flth, 1SC9,
and on the 1st of April tho $3,000, (with
no deduction for notes) was paid to his
family, this being the only provision
which tho deceased had been ablo to
mako for their future comfort. Could
any other possiblo investment of ono
hundred dollars on his part have prov
cd so judicious or profltablo? Another
caso was that of Louis II. Piaget, of
Franklin, Pa., who Insured for $1,000,
and died six weeks thereafter. In this
caso tho prompt payment of tho $1,000
enabled tho agent to effect $29,000 moro
of Insuranco upon tho appreciative
neighbors of tho deceased.
Based upon amplo financial capital
$1,000,000 paid up conducted upon
strict business principles, and managed
by men of national reputation for hon

excitement in Wall street in conse
quence of tho failuro of tho German
banking firm of Schoppler !k Co. This

government bonds, and had considera
ble amount of bills of exchango out.
Tho greatest excitement and confusion
prevails, and this failure has caused an
unsettled feeling in all departments.

tho effects of tho failuro. At tho open

which carried tho premium to H2J, but
it soon declined to 141 J. Tho following

ported od thestreet suspended this mor
ning, causing gold to riso to 142J; Schep
