With this Issue, VohTme XIII of the Co
l.UMtUAN Is completed. Nine more numbers
will complete Volume XLIV of the Columbia
Democrat which merged In the Columbian
eomo years since. This paper, with those
which were consolidated with it, has for for
ty four years been the exponent of Democrat
cy in this county and has been sustained
and patronized liberally. Tbe office was
never so well stocked as It Is now, and it is
the determination of the present proprietors
to keep up with the times In all things that
will help them to continue the paper as it
lifts been in the past. Tbe old hand press
on which the first Columbian was printed,
bos been disposed of retently, and Its place
has been filled by new and Improved ma
chinery. Our desire Is to constantly pro
gress, and as we have added to our facilities
for printing, so we shall endeavor to add to
the attractions of the paper such things as
will benefit our patrons, and continuo it as a
welcome guest in every household.
Wo thank our old friends for their sup
port, and hope to make the acquaintance of
many new ones before long.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C. Dec 22nd 1879
The present session of Congress has been
so decorous and lovely, and its adjournment
fur the holidays was so noiseless and unan
imous, that we hardly realize that the Na
tional Legislature is no longer in our midst,
but has been dissipated over the broad un
ion for the enjoyment of Christmas.
Never before in tbe memory of woman or
child have the shops on Pennsylvania
avenue and Seventh Street presented such a
gaudy appearance, and never before have
women and children appeared to have to
much money and Buch an inclination to
spend It. Toys, dolls, and gimcracks of
every conceivable design and price fill all
the windows of all tbe stores. Christmas
greens festoon the booths in the market
places, and give a hateful to emphasis hun
"dreds of drinking saloons. The odorous
scent of cedar is in the air. Twining mis
tletoe and prickly holly overr variety of
greenery that has withstood the winter is
now brought from the forest to decorate tbe
churches, homes, and hells.
Standing on the steps of tbe Capitol and
looking down the grand bovlevard called
Pennsylvania avenue, the scene may well
remind the beholder of .Paris. Where, ex
cept in Paris, will he see such broad and
perfectly paved avenues? Superb equip
ages roll along the streets, happy children
play in parks as beautiful as the Champs
Elysee or the Garden of Tuileries. These
scenes suggest the" rapid march that the
city has made in commercial prosperity, as
well as the lavished expenditure of the pub
lic money. Washington is not architec
turally all that it 'promises to become, pro
vided that tbe Capitol shall remain here.
A sweeping fire, such as has regenerated
and renovated great cities from London to
Chicago, would be a heroic remedy, but
nothing milder will sweep away numberless
mean looking houses that contrast strangely
with the marble palaces that Uucle Sam
has built. The least pretentious of all these
buildings represents, by far, the greatest in
terest of this great country. The farming
interest is the one least regarded by our law
makers and there is now a proposition to
abolish the Bureau of Agriculture. Instead
of abolishing this Department it Bhou'd
have some other bureaus added to it.and its
bead -should be made a Cabinet Officer.
The sneers at the "seed breau" have a sus
picion of tbe same snobbishness that pokes
fun at "country cousins." We ought to
have a bureau to prevent the ex
Unction of forests, and a bureau of manu
factures and exports, with perhaps others,
similar in their relation to the material in
terests of the boring and. producing class
es, with, the Bureau of Agriculture as tbe
most important and vital of all, at the bead,
aud the whole invested with the dignity
and self-defensive power which attaches to
an Executive Department.
There is a report in a morning paper to
the effect that the U, S. Dirtrict Court will
issue an injunction against the Post Master
General's recent embargo upon tbe malls of
lottery and other swindles, but your cor
respondent has jnst seen the Post-Master
General and has learned that there is no
truth in tbe report. Judge Key's just war
on these brazen swindles will be kept up
and extended. The amount of good that
lias been accomplished, and will be accom
plished, can be realized only when it is
known that thousands of sharpers In the
cities are preying upon gullable people in
the country to tbe extent of millions of dol
lars every year. The gullable class are
kept from honest industry by Utopian hopes
and the swindlers are kept from tbe
penitentiary by aliases and skill in eva
sion of law,
The Boston Post bas discovered a lud
icrous transposition in the makeup of a cou
ple of telegrapic items in the New Haven
Journal and Courier produced tbe following
effect : "A large cast-iron wheel, revolving
900 times per minute, exploded in that city
yesterday, after a long and painful illness.
Deceased was a prominent thirty-second
degree Mason." This was followed by the
second item, whlch'read: John Fadden, tbe
well-known florist at d real estate broker of
Newport. B. I,, died In Wardner & Bussell's
sugar-mill Crystal Lake, 111., on Saturday,
doing $3,000 damage to the building, and
injuring several workmen and Lorenzo Wil
cox fatally." ,
There will be voted for next year on the
State ticket one person for Auditor General
in place of Schell, who was elected in 1877,
and whose term will expire, and one for Su
preme Judge, In place of Judge Woodward,
deceased, which is now occupied by Hon.
Henry Green, of Northampton county, serv
ing under tbe Governor's appointment. Bo
alaei the two state officers there will be a
full list of tbe members of tbe House of
Representatives, 201 in all, and half tbe
Senate, numbering twenty-fire members.
All this In addition to the President, a full
delegation, in Congress, and a large county
ticket, will make a lively contest in 1880.

TIlrVNEORO EXODUS.
WHAT A NOKTHIRN BLACK MAN THINKS
ABOUT IT.
We give placo below to communication.
written by a colored man of more than or
dinary Intelligence, on the stampede of his
southern brethern to northern and western
states. His idea that the colored man is far
better off In the south than elsewhere, is un
doubtedly correct. The climate and modes
of labor In the south are better suited to his
nature and habits than those of tbo north.
When the colored citizens of the southern
states can be made to understand the fact
that these colonization schemes arc but the
tricjts of wily politicians, and that when
they are made use of at the polls they will
be compelled to look out for themselves, we
shall hear no more about the sufferings of
colored people who havo left comfortable
homes to come north, on the promise of
treacherous and unscrupulous politicians,
Espv, Columbia County, Pa., Dec. '79.
T6 the Editor s
. My attention has recently been called to
an article in the Christian Advocate, under
the head of Washington Correspondence,
setting forth that the colored men from the
vicinity ol Weldon, N. O., had negotiated
with parties near Indianapolis, Ind., for the
settlement of two hundred families In that
neighborhood.
For sometime past we have heard a great
deal said in regard to the Negro Exodus ;
that is, persons leaving several of the south
ern states and going west for the purpose of
bettering their condition.
No one could reasonably object to black
as well as other men availing themselves of
the advantages ol Government Lands In the
capacity of bona-fido emigrants. But as to
their going to Indiana to engage in the or
dinary branches of industry, I cau see no
good reason for such a movement. I am
satisfied from what I know of the two sec
tions of country, that the condition of the
black man, civil, political and social, is bet
ter, taking the average in North Carolina,
then in Indiana, or any other ol tbe north
western states.
In North Carolina, as in other parts of
the south, the common right of tbe black
man to labor and engage in the various pur
suits of life, Is neither denied to him, nor
abridged ; while in Indiana, as throughout
all tho north every branch of useful indus
try is hermetically sealed against him. Not
even in Massachusetts, the boasted "cradle
of liberty" are these privileges accorded.
The influence of General Butler, who bas
done mere than any other man toward raising
the colored troops to the common status of
American soldiers, would not be sufficient
to introduce one negro apprentice into a
factory at North Adams, although he was
among the first to advocate the admission of
colored cadets at West point.
Our sphere of influence In the northern
states is narrowed down to sweeping chiml
nlcs, blacking boots, holding horses, empty
ing spittoons and doing general chores, with
a few exceptions as in this state.
Around Harrisburg under the eye of the
old veteran Cameron (he black man has a
reasonal amount of patronage so far as his
skill will admit, and in certain iron works
in tbe central and western parts of this state,
and the portership on one or more railroads.
Another noticeable exception is found in the
anthracite coal regions ; notwithstanding
tbe majority of those operating are a class
of foreigners supposed to be habitually prej
udiced against the negro. '
You rarely hear any serious objections to
black men as laborers.
Black Tommy and Patrick get along ad
mirably together ; but the former is elbow
edout wherever the mechanical arts com
prise the industries of the community. As
an agricultural laborer-he will not average
more than one to about every twenty-five
square miles,
Mr. Editor, I was born and raised in a
southern state, and have been brought more
or less in contact with northern society for
twenty-nine yea.s,
The conclusion I have arrived at is that
we cannot reasonably expect anything in
this broad land, except in tbe south and
from the bands of that people. I do not at
tempt to deny what has been said in regard
to the Cruelty toward tbe blacks. I would
Bay in tbe language of the Great Queen. that
"the half ha never been told." The prej
udices of the American people are one and
tbe same thing all over the land and are on
ly modified according to local circumstances.
I have no hesitancy In saying that, if the
blacks of any section of the soutb, bad been
thrown among a corresponding .number of
tbo people of the north, as their competi
tors and wielding a political Influence anta
gonistic to the ideas of a majority of
the whites, their oppression would have been
greater than it has been in any southern
community.
The only trouble in the south is, that the
whites are not willing, as yet; to admit that
the blacks are the motive power in tbe gov
ernment ; they are not willing to step aside
and be superseded in the management of af
fairs any more than their northern neigh
bors are.
There never has been an incident record
ed in history of a nation having been sunk
so low in tbe depths of servile degradation,
as that of the American negro emancipated
therefrom and hurled with such unprecident
ed rapidity into political prominence.
I, taking this view in a communication to
Governor, now Senator Vance of North
Carolina, upon the political situation of the
soutb, requested that gentleman to use bis
Influence to bring about reconciliation and
moderation. He replied to my request with
the premptness of a true southerner, giving
me the assurance that he would. He also
forwarded me copies of state documents In
which he bad taken a comprehensive and
enlightened view of tbe situation,
In my communication, I called bis at
tention to an extract of a speech delivered
by General Wade Hampton, shortly after
the close oi the war, to the colored people
ot tbe city of Charleston, S. 0,, which may
be of interest to your readers at thin -late
day. The words were, as near as I cau re
call them, as follows; He congratulated
them upon their loyalty in protecting the
mothers, wives, sisters, aud daughters, the
aged and infirm; while be and bis comra
des were in the confederate front ranks'
struggling for Independence.
He further stated,tbat whatever might be
the final status, their freedom war was a
reality and no human power can prevent
their onward progress, and whatever the
feelings of the whites might be toward
them on account of the prcvions condition
of slavery, or whatever the feelings of the
negro toward tbe whites, one thing was cer
tain, that nature bad fixed their destinies
alike In tbe South and their interests were
one and inseparable : and the same-soil must
be tbe common, grave of each, He remind
ed them that they were now clothed with the
elective franchise ; and bad a right in say
lug who should govern. He cautioned tbem
against the danger of unwise rulers, and to
be careful In selecting persons versed in tbe
science of government,, to fill the highest
positions of trust. He said further,that tbe
nature of things and circumstantial sur
roundings would necessitate their forming
the basis of labor for some time to come.
I would further state in conclusion, that
our position in the Northern States It simi
lar to what History said of the Swiss na
tion, that, "their weakness afforded' them
protection."
The government, as It hat been admin
istered since the abolition of slavery, ha
been unable and unwilling to protect all the
people and conform to that cordial idea set
forth In the preamble of the constitution,
namely. To Insure domestic traqouillty
which Js tbe left band pillow upon Which
unity and purpose of government rest.
Unite alt the people of the South irrn
pectlve of condition : make them tranquil
and hippy and you have expelled tradit
ional hatred and sectional Jealousies.
Yours truly

An literestlng lir Question.
William Torrey, ex-cashler of the First
National Bank of Ashland, having been
surrendered by his ball to tbe Schuylkill
county authorities, bas made a successful
petition, through his council, Colonel Wil
liam B. Mann, of this clty,and Judge llvon,
of Pottsville, for a habeas corpus to bring
him before tho Supreme Court. He was in
dicted for embezzlement of property of tbe
bank, but denied any guilt, .alleging that
the charge against him was purely tech
nical, as he has never defrauded nor at
tempted tp defraud the bank to tbe extent
of a single dollar. He also always conten
ded, and. bis council held In view, that be
ing indicted as cashier of a national
bank for embezzlement of Its funds he could
only be tried in a United States Court. Ue
and they held that as an act of Congress
established national banks, and made em
bezzlement by cashiers or other officers an
offeusc,9Uch officers could not be tried in the
State courts, because the act of Congress
gavo no concurrent jurisdiction to those
courts, and, tbe law being that all offences
against the United States were to be tried
In the United States courts, unless the act
of Congress gives concurrent jurisdiction to
the State courts.
Inasmuch as upon the trial of Torrey the
jary had been unable to agree, and as he
had been committed for trial agaln,hls conn
scl applied to the Supreme Court for the
habeas corpus, alleging in their petition for
the writ that the court of Schuylkill coun
ty, beiog a State Court, had no jurisdiction.
After careful examination Judge Paxson has
granted the writ, nod Torrey has been
brought to this city by the prison warden,
who has returned as the cause of Torrey'a
detention that he bad been committed to
tbe Schuylkill County Jail to answer a cer
tain charge contained in a bill of indict
ment, a record of which was annexed to the
return.
This brings the case squarely before the
Supreme Court. Judge Paxson has direct
ed the hearing to take place before tbe
Court in-banc on the first Monday of Jan
uary and required the defendant to enter
bail for his appearance at that time. Tbe
ball being lurnisbed, Torrey bas peen dis
charged. Tnis is the first habeas corpus that
has been granted by the Supreme Court for
a long time. The proceeding is regarded as
one of great importance, and Its result will
be awaited with interest, as the question of
a want of jurisdiction is regarded as of such
a character that it can be raised in every ju
dicial proceeding, and whenever it appears
that a court is acting without jurisdiction,
or has bo acted, its whole proceedings can.
be held to be void. It is claimed tbat if
Torrey's allegations be true in law tbat tbe
Schuylkill County Court has no jurisdiction
in his matter the cause of justice requires
tbat he should be relieved from tbe long-
continued prosecution to which he has been
subjected. Philadelphia Timet.
Terry's Gang.
ANOTHER TERKOR IN THE COAL REGIONS.
Another murder in tbe coal regions. For
some months past an organization known as
"Terry's Gang," ah outgrowth of the de-
"moralized Molly Maguiro bands, has been
the terror of Plymouth borough. Tbe mem
bership is com posed mostly of the younger
laborers In the mines,and they have In more
than one instance been instrumental in elect
ing to Councilmanic honors members of their
Order. Recently quite a number of reputa
ble citizens have disappeared mysteriously,
and it is believed that some of tbem have
been murdered. Recently two men were
acquitted by order of tbe Court upon the
ground that the corpus delicti bad not been
proved, although the jury were about to
render a verdict of murder In tbe first degree.
One night last week Terry's Gang, to the
number of about a dozen, assembled in tbe
streets of Plymouth, aud defying law and
authority,insulted whomsoever they pleased,
They went to the saloon of one Wilds.nearly
opposite to tnelr Headquarters, There a
young member of tbe gang named James
RooEey proclaimed his intention to whip
some one present. After repeated efforts to
incite a riot be attacked a young man named
Thomas Foley, and with a blow broke his
neck. Foley died in ten minutes. Rooney
fled, but was captured and is now in the
County Jail. In an interview with a report
er he admitted that be attacked Foley with
tbe intention of whipping him so tbat he
would remember It. He said, further more,
tbat they were a etronger society than the
Molly Maguirea ever were iu Plymouth, and
be had no fears as to tbe result of bis
trial.
Remodeling tbe United States Court After
the Court of Cassation of France.
Representative Manning, of Mississippi,
proposes a reorganization of the United
States Supreme Court and has prepared a
bill looking to that end. The work of the
court is altogether too much for the present
number of Judges, and it takes from four to
five years to reach a case on tbe docket. To
remedy this Mr.Manning proposes on his bill
to remodel tbe court on the same principle as
that on which the Court of Cassation of
France is organized. Tbat tribunal bas
forty nine Judges, and is divided into six
sub-chambers, each sub-chamber having
seven Judges and one chief, with a chief
mr tne iuii nencn, Mr. Manning's bill adds
ten Judges to the present court, making a
bench nf nineteen Judges. This court he
proposes to divide into three sub-chambers,
each chamber with five Judges and a
chief, with a chief for the whole, as now,
Each sub-chamber is to have its speciality,
so that causes will be argued before the
bench having special knowledge of the sub
ject. There will thus be one chamber for
admirality, one for civil and one for crim
inal causes. Constitutional questions are
to be heard and decided by tbe full bench.
which are also to determine finally all caui
es which tbe sub-chambers may think mo
mentous enough to certify to it, Mr. Man
nlng bas tbe approval of a good many
eminent lawyers, and he will Introduce bis
bill immediately after the holiday rectal
and will press it vigorously.
Bitriktt.Tt JiitlM li Mali.
When tho vote of Louisiana was stolen
under the personal supervision of John Sher
man, tbe only pretext set up by the robbers
andjy the beneficiaries of that monstrous
Iniquity waa that the law creating the Re
turning Board, passed by the carpet-baggers,
vested therd with a revisory discretion 6ver
the returns, and there waa uo appeal from
their final action. But though the same law
directed how these returna should be made
up, and when the protests, if any, should be
filed with the record, no heed was paid to
those conditions,
The truth that fraud pollutes and vitiates
all that It tonches was flagrantly disregarded
and De Golyer Garfield and other advocates
of the conspiracy which succeeded in carry
ing Hayes into the White House became for
the time the loudest advocates of State rights
contending that it would be an indignity to
Louisiana to prove that some of the electoral
certificates sent to Washington bore forged
signatures, and that all of them were fraudu
lent and procured by corruption.
The history of that infamous event will
never be blotted out from the minds of the
American people, and all the actors in It,
from Grant down to Welts and Anderson,
will be remembered only to be execrated
when fnll justice shall finally be done to
Ibelr respective parts In its consummation.
Among tbe loudest defenders of the Great
Fraud wag Mr. Blaine, who is the chief
champion of the high moral doctrine that
all Is fair In war and politics a doctrine
which he personally Illustrated In a remark
able way when he seized his own letters from
Mulligan, after beseeching that witness on
bended knees to save him from ruin.
Until last year, tbe Republicans had con
tinuous possession of the State of Maine
since tho foundation ot tbe party, and of late
Mr. Blaine has run it like a political factory.
The Governors and Councils put into office
by the Republican machine never consulted
law or Constitution to make up their majori
ties in the Legislature. Tbey had tbe ex
clusive power, and they never failed to ex
ercise it without scruple. Loose practices,
open violations of the election laws, and
palpable infractions of prescribed forms, in
tended for tbe protection of the purity of
the ballot, became common, and the minori
ty were powerless to prevent these abuses.
For the first time in more than half a
generation, the combined opposition won a
victory last year, and tbey elected a Gover
nor, who bas now made his mark on the
records of the State, and who has at a sing
le bound leaped into a most conspicuous po
sition. He let it be known after tbe election
in September that the gross irregularities
heretofore practiced would not be tolerated,
and tbat tlje returns would be subjected to
the. plain requirements of the Constitution
and tbe laws of the State.
Mr. Blaine and bis friends and followers,
who had claimed a great victory, knew very
well tbat the application of this rule would
throw them into a minority. Hence tbey
began to shout fraud, gathered together a
a crowd of ex-Governors, ex-Senators, and
noisy politicians to intimidato the Governor
in tbe discharge of his duty, and to raise a
cry of foul play being intended.
All this clamor did not disturb Governor
Garcelon In the least, nor shake his purpose
of seeing the laws faithfully. executed. He
stood firm as a rock, and in quiet dignity let
the revilers understand they had to deal with
an official who could neither be seduced from
his convictions nor scared from carrying
them into effect. Tbe result is tbat the Re
publicans have lost tho Legislature. It is
not pretended that any wrong has been per
petrated, or tbat the Governor and Council
have done anything more than to administer
tbe law as it stands on the statute book.
Mr. Blaine found It good and rightful to
uphold the Returning Board frauds when
they profited himself and his party, and at
tempted to excuse them on the most misera
ble of shams. Now, when the Constitution
and the laws of his own State throw out a
majority illegally chosen, be finds It hard
to accept tbe situation, and rushes about
wildly iu impotent rage. If injustice has
been done in any case it will be easy to
provo it. The cool head and stern will of
Governor Garcelon have been evidently too
much for the Hotspur of the United States
Senate.
