tho oath to support tho Constitution of
tho United States, it being not only a
fraud but also a violation of that instru

out effect.
Let tho people not despair. All tho
material mischief, and usurpation and
fraud, of tho last ten years is to bo wiped

reach of human power, and tho power

Constitutional Convention.
The Bollofonto Watchman, ouo of tho
itbloit Democratic papery of tho State,
opposes a Constitutional Coavention,
because the editor fears tho Radicals
would be enabled to strike tho word
"white" out of tho article defining tho
(nullifications of voters. AVo havo no
fear that such result can bo accom
plished. Ev.ery amendment should bo
submitted separately to tho people.
This is tho universal practico now. A
convention would not risk tho destruc
tion of all its labors by coupling every
thing together, and having ,all voted
down because of tho feeling against
Negro suffrage.
Wo would liko to seo tho proposition
plainly put before our peoplo to strike
out tho word, "white'-' from our Stato
Constitution. If -tho peoplo want a
mongrel government they ara entitled
to havo it. Their voting has been so
singular of lato years that,, it has. come
to be disputed whether they want to
continue a government of purely white
men. Let tho question bo settled, by
popular vote.j
, A Convention is wanted to curb the'
Legislature tp so circurascribo its
power thut small nnd corrupt, men will
no longer struggle for places in it so
that legislation bo left to capable and
honest men. ThaUs the great want of
tho times, andiiancornmon want.

ThoThlladelphlft &M"nualntly re
mark's' that 'i'a1 rril3mber of men' and

w are engaged in u laiidablo 'effort to make
the Prussians stop tho war In France,"
Wo are in' recelpfldf' a long 'circular
from these meddlers, but asrneithr,
i King William or Blsmarlc Is very
likely to re'alMhe Columbian or' make
peace at its suggestion if th'ey'cild read
it, wo have consigned tho effusion to
tho wasto 'paper' rccbptlclo: The' uni
versal deslro of tho Yankee to meddle
ftIn every thing, oven when ho Is suro to
bo spurned with deserved contempt, is
strongly illustrated by this preposterous
action. Of all peoplo on earth, the Qer
man despises tho Yankee as only a Ger
man can despise, and as only a Yankee
can bo hated. What tho Yankee Imps,
therefore, expect to accomplish by their
Intermeddling wo do not discern. Tho
Germans now havo their first fair chance
to deal with tho French In un even
handed contest, mid it is their business
to provo their superiority as warrior
and statesmen, us they havo in every
thing elfo, to any other people on tho
faco of tho globe, and if thoy flog tho
French into good behivior thoy will be
doing tho world a service.
Editors. and Politics.
Editors who aro not tho mere echoes
of politicians, will endorse tho truth
fulness of the following from tho Lou
isville Journal: T
" The Journalist who wants ofllco mis
takes his calling. An editor Is himself
an official, occupying a very enviable
position; and his consequonce is to ho
measured by that of his Journal, great
or small, as It may bo. Ho should re
qulro preferment ouly In his profession,
which is n branch of tho public service.
But In prdor to bo a good Journalist ho
must eschew caucuses, .cdmmittees and
conventions, ho must hold himself aloof
from cliques, ho must bowaro of in
triguo. His road lies straight before
him. Ho must not becomo a party to
personal, local and party struggles only
to bo advised as to what is going on;
and the more isolated ho keeps himself
and tho more disinterested ho is, tho
better will hq fulfil his mission as a
faithful servant of tho peoplo. All tho
editors who havo conointo polities have
made mistakes', because Journalism and
ofllco aro at odds and a man must vlo
lato tho ono or tho other, If ho attempts
to Joln tho two."

ltiKGs.-Tho artlclo in another column
signed A., does not require introduction
or explanation from us. That tho stu
pid cry about "Itlngs" had somo lnllu
enco in producing tho defeat of tho
Democratic ticket at tho lato election
may bo as stated by our correspondent, wo
do not doubt, but such cry is so common
against tho mostnbleand efllcient work
ers of a majority party, and wo had
such high respect for tho virtue and in
tclligencoof tho Democracy of Colum
bia, that wo passed it as unworthy of
observation. To cry "ring" against
successful party, is tho last resort of
empty heads who havo nothing sub
stantlal to bring forward, or who aro
mentally incapablo of successfully dis
cussing pending principles and meas-
ures,and in fact is usually but a spiteful
cry of despair. Tho Democracy havou
plain way of ridding themselves of tho
power of either roal or Imaginary ring-i
within their own party, viz : to elect
trustworthy men as delegates and glvo
their nominations unanimous and efll
cient support. But to tho eud that what
ever is wrong may bo expend!, and by
exposure crushed, wo throw our col
umns opon to any Democrat to givo his
views of the causes of dissatisfaction in
such respoctful nnd gentlemauly lan
guage as may suit his tastoand conven
ience.
European Wows.
Tho war against Franco is prosecuted
with unabated energy by Prussia.
Motz has capitulated, MarshalBAZAiNE
.surrendering his entire army, 150,000
strong. Charges of treachery aro freoly
made, but tho surrender seems to havo
been a necessity resultlngfromabsoluto
starvation. Tho entire regular army of
Franco" is now in tho hands of tho Prus
sians, except tho killed and wounded.
Irregular French armies of volunteers
still exist, the' total number of which
amount to six. or sovon hundred thous
and. Thoy are, howover. no match for
,tioj thproughly marshalled hosts of
Prussla.'who aro not only superior In
urjl), organization and arms, but also in
numbers arid1 p.6wor. Wherever tho
Prussians attack they are successful.
At this writlng Paris still holds out,
though' on tho verge of starvation and
bombardment. Tho madness of tho
incompetent- demagogues who havo
seized upon tho government of Franco
i3 without parallel. They repeat tho
fable of tho strong man in tho morass
tho more they strugglo tho deeper they
sink Into the mire. In tho surrender
of Metz Baza ink disregarded them as
well as Napoleon.
England, backed by tho other Euro
pean powers, unless Russia bo an excep
tion, is making tho utmost efforts to
bring about a peaco. After hissing on
tho combatants, she trembles at tho ex
traordinary power exhibited by the
Prussians, and well she may, lor when
peaco do?s como, that collosal empire
will becomo tho nrbltcr of Europe.
All Italy is now under tho sway of
Victoh EiianueIi, though tho Pope
still protests, and is now endeavoring
to effect by prayer what ho could not
maintain by arms.
All nail, West Virginia !
At the recent olection in West Vir
ginla the entire Democratic State ticket
was elected by a reported majority of
about 4000. Two of the threo Congress
lonnl districts elect Democrats in tho
plMofRpublIcans,.and .thoblrd is
mill in uuuui. xno xjegisiaiuro is dem
ocratic by a largo majority, which gives
tho Democracy a U. S. Senator, in place
of Willey, Republican. At the last
Presidential election Gen. Grant had
8,719 majority. In view of tho fact
that there is a largo number of Negroos
in tho Stato, and that many whlto men
aro disfranchised, this is a most encour
aging result. Tho whlto men aro dls-
franchlsod under Stato laws, which will
now be repealed, and the Democratic
strength will thus bo greatly Increased.
Hon. IIiestkr Clymer of Reading,
left norao last week for a tour In Eu
rope, and will bo away nearly a year.
He expects to visit all tho principal cit
ies on tho continent during his absence.
Mr. Clymeh's excellent lady died
short time ago. His children had died
in previous years. Bereft of tlioenilo.tr
mentsof family, ho goes to sorrow alouo

sylvanla Statesmen, ho carries with

The town of Erie, Pa., is lighted by
"natural gas" obtained from a well sunk

parts of tho city aro now furnishing fuel

GENTItALIA, Oct. 27, 1870.
Emtou Columihan, Dear ,1tr: In
last week's issuo of your paper and in
your loader you ropoated tho chargo
that It wasallogod by Smith in tho lato
canvass, that MtLLAKi) secured his
nomination through tho corruption of
tho Contralla and Conyngham dele
gates. This chargo was not known to
us before tho election, neither do wo
wish to revive tho spirit of tho canvass.
Tho truth Is, wo had to voto for Mir.
i.Aitn in tho Convention or betray tho4e
good citizens that sent us thoro to do
so. These districts Wero always nearly
unanimous for Mili.aui), nnd tho fact
was proven at tho lato "election. Fur
thermore, Mir.i.Ann did not' offer one
dollar for our votes, ho was suro of us,
and had no occasion to purchaso our
voto. Wo, tho undersigned1 delegates',
aro willing to provo on oath that tho
chargo is falso nnd was falsa In every
particular. But tho offer was made,
not by MiltjAkd, but by Ssiith him
self, to buy us.
Just before tho Convention assembled
he, Smith, sent E. It. Ikeler, Dls'-
trict Attornoy, to us with an offer of
five hundred dollars ($500) to voto for
him (Smith) and oppoio Millard, tho
cuolco of our constituents. Ikei.eu
dono his best to persuado us to take tho
money and voto for Smith, and wo
challenge him to deny tho fact If ho can.
Wo publish this in justico to tho char
acters of Mr. Millaisd and ourselves.
Yours truly,
Thomas Kilkeii,
P. Lunv,
Thomas Gekartv,
Martin Gaugiian.
North Conynchiam, Oct. 27, 1870.
Editor ConjiniAN, Dear Sir:1
had fully made up my mind not to no
tice tho slanderous articles published
in tho Republican sheet of your town,
in regard to tho purchaso of tho Delo
gates from this sido of tho mountains
by Mr. Millard and others, believing
it to ho an electioneering trick, and that
with tho election it would end, but still
find it kept up with a spirit of "viiidic
tiveness. I had tho honor1 of being a
delegate from North1 Conyngham', 'at
that Convention, and as will be seen by
reference to tho accompanying affidavit,
did not go to that Convention for gain,
but at the carnot request of' Mr. Mil
lard, and I now challenge any candi
date for any office, to say, much loss to
provo, that I received any monoy, from
any of them, or any of their friends, or
that I asked any money, or extorted, or
tried to extort any promise of reward,
for my voto or influence at said Con
vention, but on tho contrary, told any
ono who n9kcd mo for my voto or influ
ence at said Convention, that I had
promised it to Mr. Millard, and
would not bo thcro as delegato but for
his Interest. I think tho voters of North
Conyngham havo fully refuted tills
slander by thoir votes at our ,lato elec
tion, by voting to a man ,for Mr. Mil
lard. Ho received out of ono hundred
and thirty-seven votes polled, ono hun
dred & thirty-two votes ,aud by referring
to tho vote polled at Centralia, and
South Conyngham, if can bo readily
seen that thoso dolegates'wero instruct
ed for Mr. Millard, or ho 'would not
get tho unanimous voto of ithoso two
districts. It is not' through any deslro
of mluo to gain newspaper' notorioty,
that I havo departed in this ca30 from
a fixed rule, of treating all such with
contempt, by my silence, but this slan
der has beon so persistently adhered to,
that Injustice to mytclf, I cannot pass
it unnoticod, not having any quarrel or
even tho least objections to Mr. Smith,
personally, never having mot tho man
before tho day of that Convention ;
therefore could havo no object in oppo-
sing him only ray preference, as woll
as tho preference of our peoplo for Mr.
Millard, bo that this attack of Mr.
Smith was entirely out of placo and
uncalled for. Hoping you will glvo tho
enclosed affidavit and this artlclo an In
sertion iu your valuablo paper,
I am Dear Sir,
Yours in Democracy,

Harrlsburg Correspondence.
Harrishurh, Oct. 31, 1870.
Ub the IMlor of the Columbian t I
read with much pleasure Sonator Buck
alew's address on "Electoral Roform,"
dollvcrod before tho Social Science As
sociation, at Philadelphia, as published
In your paper of tho 23th Inst.
Tho clear and noble simplicity of the
address was well calculated to caVry to
tho Intellects and hearts of his distin
guished audience, composed as It was,
of men of all parties, that Intimate
'Conviction Which always follows In tho
footsteps of unpretending truth.
If Senator Bitckalew oveutually
succeeds In his patriotic and perse
vering efforts to givn practical effect to
this great political reform, of which I
havo no doubt, ho will havo placed
himself high on tho roll of thoso public
benefactors to whom future generations
shallbo Indebted for tho continued bles
sings of enlightened self government.
At least tho friends of tho distinguished
Senator may sifoly bollovo that "Just
Iteprcsentatlon" and "Purity of Ulec
lions," lettered upon his monument,
will hand down his famo, and embalm
his memory in tho heart of posterity,
to much better purposo than tho san
guinary record of noted fields of car
nage Inscribed upon tho tomb of tho
professional military chieftain 1
But, to my mind, tho "freo voto"
will lead not only to just representation
and to tho purity of elections, but it
will necessarily also indtico tho peoplo
to bo morn particular iu tho cholco of
their officers. By this now system, a
nomination being equal to. an election,
tho moral character and competency of
candidates will bo more closely scrutin
ized: nnd It is to bo inferred that all
the people, having an interest in tho
elections, will ccaso to consider offices
as created for tho solo benefit of tho In
cumbents, but will rather vlow tho of
ficers whom they elect, In their true
light: as public servants, elected to
servo tho peoplo, for tho good of tho
people, and not to serve themselves to
tho exclusion of the people, as Is too
frequently tho fashion nowadays.
The whole people, having resumed tho
control of public affairs, will feel a
proper Interest in their management.
They will no longer consider tho public
Treasury as a public crib, at which ev
ery jackass shall bo entltlod to feed in
his turn ; but ns a common fuud for
publie'oxpeudituros, to bo administered
with tho same pruUcnco, economy and
thrift which thoy themselves Individu
ally oxerciso la tho management of
their own privato purse. To this effect,
they will chooso their public servants
upon tho sauio principles which govern
them In tho cholco of their own privato
servants. Thus, the merchant who
wants a clerkp looks for a mau of good
moral character ; a good book keeper,
wriliug a good hand and disposed to
serve his employer with honesty, zeal
and energy. Your merchant will not
pick up lu tho street the first loafer
upon whom ho may stumble: neither
will ho.Ieavo tho cholco of his clerk to
be decided by haira dozenjolly fellows
well met, who feel littlo or no Interest
in ids own welfare. No, ho will Indulgo
In no such absurdities: but, industri
ously seeking, ho will find and eventu
ally get suited. So with tho peoplo:
In choosing their representatives to tho
legislative halls of tho Nation nnd of
tho State, tho minority will feel thoad
vantage of selecting their shrewdest
and best men to watch tho action of the
majority. While tho majority being
mado thus to feel tho fullness of their
responsibility, will bo compelled to
elect men of high character and capa
city to represent their political interests
and to balllo tho urgus oyes of their op
ponents. Tho consequence of thlsi
representation oj the people will produco
an infinitely better class of mon who
will soon expel from our Legislatures
tho contemptible wretches who annu
ally disgraco themselves and tho people
whom thoy pretend to represont.
Tho peoplo.thcn, waking up to a full
realization of their truo interests, will
ceaso to pervert Jefferson's doctrino
of "rotation in office," (intoudod by
him to apply solely to executivoo'fllcos)
by applying that doctrino to represent
ative; offices. They will fully appreci
ate tho great advantage of keeping In
their sorvico honest, competent and
zealous representatives, and they will
continue to ro-elect them so low; as
they shall render themselves worthy of
their confidence. On tho other hand,
whenover a representative shall full off
from tho faithful discharge of his leg
isiativo duties, they will, without mer
cy, turn him out, whether ho shall havo
served ono year or ten terms, Thoy
will abandon tho stupid rulo of rotating
out of ofllco honest and efllcient lepro
rontatives, to make room for ignorant
greenhorns, nnd tho equally absurd
practico of keeping In ofllco faithless or
Incompetent representatives, on tho
solo ground that thoy havo not yet
served out tho term arbitrarily fixed
for them to misrepresent their constltu
cnts!
Mr. Editor, lot us havo tho 'free vole:
and wo shall havo not only Just repre
sentation anu'pure elections, out also
pure men to govern us.
Let us havo tho "free voto" and at
ono fell swoop, wo shall bo rid of polit
ical rulllansj political drones j political
asses; and abovo all, of tho splendid
political rascals who now dotllo tho

tho glorious past. "Junius."

To the Editor or the Columiu-
an: Sir: I havo read tho remarks
mado by you upon tho recent olection
In this county, and also on article In
tho llepubllcan on tho same subjuct.and
you must allow mo to say with great
respect, that I think you uro on a
wrong tack. I Imagine you do not
fully understand tho pooplu with wham
you deal, and for that reason treat thorn
with a courtesy thoy do not deserve.
Their oljcct Is mlschlof, whllo yours Is
peace. They proceed to striko, whllo
you phllosophlzo and preach forbearanco
and tho forglvoness of Injuilcs. You
pass by tho main subject of radical at
tack, and of sore-head complaint, to in
form us that certain causes oporated at
tho lato election to defeat all the candi
dates on th6 Democratic ticket who
wero opposed, and that tho volunteers
who wcro elected uro not particularly
objectionable, but persons of much umt-
ability, popular address, energy, &c.
Now nil this is something liko light
ing a battlo with rose-water. You dls
chargo sweet odors whllo tho enemy
flro grapo I
But tho writer lu tho Republican
(whoso position and animus uro not to
bo mistaken) states to you tho point of
attack In tho plainest possible language.
Ho Informs you that tho truo question
Is, concerning a lllng: That tho peoplo
(meaning thereby tho Republicans and
dissatisfied Democrats) struck at such a
supposed organization iu tho 'election
and put down Its nominations as a re
buke to it, and as a lesson for tho fu.
turo.
Will It not bo well then to look a lit
tlo Into this question "concerning a
Ring," and discover if posilblo Its truo
slsrtiilleanco and bearings. JNow, It is
truo that prejudico against tho county
town in rival towns and country dis
tricts was used in the lata election as in
former ones, nnd with considerable
effect. And tho occasion was improved
by our political opponents to denounce
leading men of our party, who do tho
main work and bear most of tho cxpenso
of elections, in most emphatic languago,
This is an old art of party warfare, and
wo may expect tholtepublicans in their
unfortunato condition us a minority, to
resort to it upon all occasions ; for they
supposo that by weakening tho lnllu
enco of men who do tho .work upon our
side, they will strengthen themselves,
and improve their prospects for tho fu
turo. Henco tho oloquonco, energy and
persistenco of their denunciation of nn
imaginary "Ring,"said to bo composed
of active members of our party who
havo contributed by their labors and
zoal to produco tho largo Democratic
majorities of recent years.
Perhaps if wo shall look a littlo fur
ther wo snail una that this is but an
old dodgo which every ono ought, to
understand. Tho pickpocket fearful of
detection, raises tho cry Of "stop thief,"
and rushes forward with hue and cry
in pursuit of tho innocent citizen I
There is no doubt a Ring amongst us,
composed or somewhat discordant ma
terials, but united by common passions
nnd n common purposo ;, nnd it is tho
very mon who composo it, who nro
screaming "Rlngl" "Ring!" at their
neighbors. It is about tlmo that tills
association of "Black Spirits and Gray"
should bo described a littlo and its true
character and purposes laid bare for
public inspection. In a succeeding com
munication this duty will bo underta
ken and performed. A.
Senator Trumiiull, of Illinois, in
a recent speecli at Springfield, In that
State, dashed to pieces somo of tho pro
tection crockery of tho Radical party.
Ho said: "Nothing has tended more to
mislead tho public as to tho truo char
acter of a protective tariff than tho ap
plication to itof tho phrases, 'American
System' and 'Protection to American
Industry,' and tho denunciation of
thoso who oppose a protective tariff as
tho advocates of a 'foreign policy.'
There nover was a greater misnomer.
How is it protecting American indus
try any more to give a bounty to a lum
berman, a man working in an iron es
tablishment, or in nny sort of a manu
factory, than if ho wero omploycd cul
tivating tho .soil or digging in your
streets? Is not ono sort of labor as
much American as another? Why,
then, should a refusal to tax one, and
much tho larger, laboring interest of
tho country, for tho boneflt of unother
and a smaller Interest, bo denounced as
a "foreign policy ?" Bo not deceived
by names or phrasos. That system of
laws Is most Just, and affords tho best
protection to American Industry, which
treats all branches of Industry alike,
and refuses to burden ono for tho bene
fit of another, and especially when that
other constitutes hut a small portion of
tho country's Industry. Any tariff is a
tax on tho domestic industry of tho
country, considered as a whole; nnd it
is only to particular interests and thoso
engaged In them that It is over an ad
vantage." This does not suit tho Radi
cals of Pennsylvania, and tho Press
peggs away at Senator Trumbull, with
all tho Industry of a cobbler. But in
all directions bricks arp falling from
tho Radical edifice, and in a short time
It will lloa shapeless mass, remembered
only for its mlschler. Age.
A letter from Scranton, Pa., rep
resents that a respectable and influen
tial German cltizon of Luzerno county,
who had bean recently naturalized,
was refused his voto by tho Republican
officer on account of an apparent Haw

turned his German namo into English,
and his voto was received by thoRepub

In return a prosecution for depriving

The Hon. Geo. W. Woodward has,
wo aro glad to learn, returned to tho
practico of law, in this city. Tho Bar

How cnlm In dentil my baby lies,
It seems I must bo calling,
Add watt tho opening or his eyes.
And watch to sco lilm smiling;
Alas, ho'll never smile again,
For Death his lips nro scaling,
A mother's prayer nro nil In vnln,
Her tears ns unavailing.
How ort I 've pressed him to my heart,
And rclt his pulses throbbing
. And now to know that we must part,
Heems butmy own Ufo robbing,
How can I glvo my baby up?
And bury him to-morrow?;
How can I drink this bitter cup?
Endure this dreadful sorrow?
Hut O t my aching heart be still,
Though on tho point of breaking,
It Is the great Redeemer's will, .
I hear tho Saviour speaking,
"Let littlo children como to mo,
Iu my fond arms I'll fold thorn,
And safe to all Eternity ( ' '
From sin nnd harm I'll hold tlicm,"
Tills word, this faith alone can glvo
To me tho blest assurance,
And can my burdened heart relievo
And give to mo endurance.
Then go my baby, go to Him
With this sweet promise given,
The wny is nbw no longer dim,
I know my boy's In Heaven,
