THE TKIBUXE.
Our amiable friend of the Johnstown
TrXune devote?, in its last issue, fume
column and a half to the Fkkemax. Not
to be'outdone in courtesy, we shall devote
the game q-iantity of our f pace to its ben
efit, and, perhaps, even "go back" on it
half a Column or ao. We shall quote the
very words of the Tribune and follow them
with our reply, to that our mutual readers
tan understand the ground of controversy
between ua.
Let us prcrni?, however. John Hick
man, a leading Kadical member of the
Legislature, in a speech in favor of negro '
suffrage, urged the Radicals to meet the
issue squarely, and alleged that the negroes
were Iwtter qualified to vote than "the
Irish Human Catholics," &.c. lie wan
followed by other K idical orator?, who
denounced the Irish as ignorant whisky
drinkers and the Germans as lager beer
wil!er, etc.
The Ti luue undertook to apologize for
the irnpruJtnce of the Kadical leader, and
without attempted to contradict the slan
der en a large body of our citizens, en
deavored to c?eapc by alleging the folly of
Hickman in thus ext.oii.og Kadi
ca: onin-
.1
ion j.
It
then undertook to a?sert that
the
Ka lical party does not proscribe "any
man on account of race, religion or color,"
fcnd charged that the Democrats do so '
profcnbi?.
We replied the assertion, and 1
denounced the article as abounding with
misrepresentation.
The Tribune undertakos a reply, not
that wa have "said anything that merit
u reply," but because it is disposed to
"gratify our weakness." Then comes his
extinguisher, and iu order that nothing
may be lot, we give the 1'rXune's words
and our reply :
Tril)ne "1. 'Proscriptio n of nny man
on ccount of rnce, religion or color' we again
wTt is not a Republican principle. We
point to the authoritative declarations of
every state ana natioual Republican conven
tion that kas ever been held as proof of our
a '-ei iion. Nor has t'.ie practice of the party
given any co! r of truth to the Freeman's
allegation. On the contrary, time and again
lias the party, through its representatives,
declare 1 itself the friend of tho well behaved
foreign-born citizen, whether he be Rjman
Catholic' or Protectant."
Iirply The civilized world recognizes
the theory that a revolution discharges the
national d-bt : and our Kadical opponents
cancel their political sins in the same way.
The Democratic party, whose existence is
co-equal with that of our country, and
which has al-vajs battled for the same
principles under the samo nam?, presents
its record of three quarters of a century,
and i3 willing to stand upon the merits
or demerits of that record. The Kepubli
can party is the creature of a day, and
has no record. The first Republican Na
tional Convention was held in 1856, and
there was no resolution against foreigners
or Catholics, for the simple reason that
Know Nothinism was then in "failim'
circumstances." The second Republican
Convention r.ominntcd sectional candidates
whose success culminated in a war. In
lfcl4 they dropped the name of Kepubli
can, and assumed the name of the Union
party. It is entirely useless to nrguc that
the Know Nothing party of 1854 and
1855 was the Kepublican party of 185G ;
they went over in a body, taking the new
name, and what is a party but the aggre
gate of tho persons who compose it ?
Thus, by merely changing the name, they
eek to get rid of their past deeds, and
absolve themselves from the debt of pro
tcription by a sort of political "statute of
limitation." liut even according to the
Tribune's own showing it is litc:ll bchacecf
foreigners whom they would not proscribe;
and welUbehavcd foreigners, according to
Puritanical Radicalism, are such as would
treat the negro as an equal, csc-Ijtw De
mocracy, and swear by Thad. Stevens.
But wa di an J shall -hold the present Rad
ical party responsible for its past practices,
ucdr whatever naca they held at lb.'
time.
Tribune ' A few years ago a Republican
Congru-a passed a law to encourage immi
gration, and a late an Monday lust the pres
ent Repub'.icuc IloUs.e of Representatives
passed Mr. Banks's bill Lr the better pro
tection of naturalized citizeus traveling
abroad."
Jl'P'y Tc., when New England could
not furnifck a fufrie.ient nnmber of negro
substitutes to take tho places of her own
stay-at-home patriots, the Radicals passed
a bill to "encourage immigration" in order
to fill up thir quota, with the suggestive
remark that "an Irishman or a German
would do as well to etup a bullet as any
ono else." And Mr. Banks's bill for pro
tecting loreigners abroad is in precise
keeping with Kadical policy. They want
the foreigners to all "travel abroad.'
What we complain of is that they prroscribe
them at home ! Even Radical leader
make bunkum speeches for the "freedom
of Ireland," whilfl they would give a mo
nopoly of the freedom ot this country to
the negro, ignoring the rights of tb.8 for-elgnr-r
upon our foil I
. Tribune "Some of the ablest aud most
honored leaders of the Republican party are
foreign 'born nnd 'Roman Catholic' in reli
?on. Who. except Goneral Grant, has re
more honor from the Republican par
tv than Generals Shrraan and Sheridan ?
Yti thy are Lgth 'Roman Catliolics.' n
7i'i,,V If the above were correct (which
' J . x
dv.es not , happen to be the cape) it would
only prove that Catholic General?, as well
as Catholic noldiers, risked their lives to
preserve the L'nion. We should like to
see the 'Tribune's list of foreigner and
Catholics in civil offices where theni are
large salaries nnd no danger.
Tribune "In this county forei.cn bora
citizens and 'Eomau Catholics' have f;t-
! qoer.tly been placed upon the Republican
I ticket, and always received the fuil party
vote."
llfjhj Not so! In 1854 l'ollock re
ceived 1627 votes, Darsie 1174 453 le-fs;
nnd though Darsie was the better man of
the two, and a lYotostar.t, lie was guilty
of being born iu Scotland, .though he was
brought to this country in his mother's
arms. ISut if the Tribune "pleads the
statute" to this we refer it to Ifeo9, under
the Republican party, when Enos C Mc
Mullin, the Kefublican candidate for
Commissioner, ran 350 votes behind his
ticket the only objection to him being
his religion ! We might name other in
stances, but we forbear.
Tribune "Concerning the other charge,
that the Republican party 'proscribes the
white m.m and gives power to the negro,'
we have this to say, that, in the Rebel
States, where white Democrats prove their
loyalty by organizing themselves into Kuk
Lux Klaus for the murder if white Union
men, Republican? Jo in.-ist that a loyal black
man should be the political equal of those
scoundrels, while, to use the Freeman's owu
clumsy language, (see its third specification
above), 'no Northern j State, even the most
radical, that has held un election within the
last five years on the subject, that has not
declared against the capati'y of the negro
fjr suffrage' in States that did not rebel."
Il'l'ly Here's logic for you! The
Tribune admits that Northern liadicals
won't stand negro pufliage among them
selves, where the negroes have an equal
chance with the whites to become quali
fied : while in the South, in his degraded
condition, the negro should vote, in order
that he might ''be the political equal of
these scoundrels." The Tribune knows,
or should know, that voting is a privilege
bas.'d upon proper qualificaiio: s ; r.nd
that the safety cf evory government mjst
depend upon the intelligent exercise of
suffrage. And yet it contends, on the
ubove theory, that because one that be
thinks, or chooses to call, a "scoundrel
votts OM OWl1. sil,e h 'ju!d be set-off by
an uiquaunca negro vote upon u,e tuner i
On t'tnt principle, we suppj.se, that as the
"scoundrels" are reformed the negroes
khould quit voting The murderous do
inns of Kuk Lux Klans is only a dyspep
tic dream of the 'Tribune, That outrages
occur in the South, by and against negr. es
and white men, results from the denial of
self-government, and while we disapprove
of ti e Kuk Lux Klan as being little better
than Know Nothingism, it must be ad
mitted that they are the natural sp;iwn of
oppression. Give the South a free gov
ernment and these societies will vanish.
Tribune "It is true that the Democratic
party is a prescriptive party. We have
said that it seeks to trample under its des
potic heel the Mack victim of its owu bar
barcus practices trample and crush him
like a viper simply because tind made birn
black. He is not only everywhere treated
by the Democratic party with contempt and
ignominy, but he is systematically slanJered
his vices exaggerated anil his virtues de
nied. No matter how well he may deport
himself, or how intelligent he may be. he ia
still in the eyes of the Democracj' nothing
but 'a damned nigger.' If this is not pro
scription of the very worst kind, what is it?
And then, as if to add intuit to the mon
strous crti'diies already heaped upon h!m,
the Freeman says that its friends 'do not
seek to deprive the negro of any privileges
he ever had,' which includes, we supp .se,
the privilege of again serving hie Rebel mas
ters if the Democracy should ever again ob
tain control of the GjvtrmneLit ! 0 mutt
rare magnjniuiity !"
R-phj What is the Democratic pro
scription ot negroes ? of what right? have
Democrats ever deprived them t Slavery
existed iu all the States North and South
many years before any Democratic party
ever existed. The Constitution recognized
slavery, and the Democrats sustained the
Constitution as the Great Bond of the
L'nion of the States. As to the genteel
phrase of the Tribune, "damned nigger,"
that is the coinage of his own brain. No
Democratic national, state, county, town
or township convention or meeting ever
used the term. We cheerfully admit that
Democrats do not choose to vote, or eat,
or sleep with negroc?, or to make him.
what he can never be, the social equal of
the white man. The Supreme Court
(J udgc Agnew, a Kadical, delivering the
opinion") agrees with the Democrats in this
but the Tribune 3 wiser. We take ex
ception to the Tribune usinjr the. words
"damned nigst-" We never use even
the latter term. "Nigger" is a word of
reproach therefore we don't use it. -Neither
do we adopt the word "colored,"
(as the sama cumber of tho Tribune does
in describing the attempts of a negro to
take the life of a Johnstown white-man
with a razor, for protecting a white girl
from negro insult,) because the negro is
black, and black is no color, but the ab
sence of color ; theicfore the negro is not
a colored nan. We do them justice even
in name, and call them what they have
always called themselves "negroes."
On the question of voting, Democrats
would enly treat the ignorant and degraded
neproes of the South as Radicals treat the
eomparatlctly intelligent rogroes of the
North, by denying them the right to vote.
Tribune "3. We wish to be understood,
and would fain hope that we may hereafter
be" truthfully represented, as not claiming
nur having claimed 'equal privileges for
the negroes.' If we could have onr way
tlrey should everywhere vote upon the same
terms as white men, even here in Pennsyl
vania. We are in favor of 'equal privi
leges7 just that far. But we would deny to
the 'negroes' the possession of other 'privi
leges' which have for at least a century
been exercised by tens of thousands of
white?, mostly Democrats, among which
may be enumerated the "privilege' of sepa
rating mother and child, the 'privilege' of
making merchandise of human Cesh, the
'privilege' of horsewhipping and otherwise
brutally treating men and women, and the
privilege' of making coacuhines of women
without their consent. These 'privileges'
of lordly whites of the South, now deplored
by the Freemm and its party as having
been lost to them by the war. we wonhl
.forever deny to the 'negroer. As for 'somo
-th r 'in i v lit-5s' not mentioned, they will
' . , . . -.1 ... i.. .. J
!int ths-m.selves withou 'legislation, aud
the Freeman and its friends fight a man ot
straw when they prate about them."
Iiij,!y It is not easy "to comprehend
what the above flummery amount? to. If.
-
it refer to the orifjin of slavciy, by the
African barbarians makiug captives of
each other, separating "mothtr and child,"
ar.d all other family relations, and selling
the, victims to the slave traders of I-ng-land
aud New England, then we can re
joice with the Tribune that the slave trade
is forever abolished. As there never was
"concubinage" arid never can be "without
consent," it is presumed '.he Tribune re
fers to the numerous cases of rape upon
white women by negroes occurring since
the reign of Radicalism commenced.
Tribune "We would here close, but the
Freeman insists upon being peisonal, and
we mean n. t to be outdone in this line of
editorial courtesy. It goes back to 1854,
fourteen years ago, and, after conjuring up
the ghost of Know Nothingism, is horror
stricken to remember that the editor of this
paper had 'seen Sam' when he was alive.
Yes,, we were a Know Nothing. The
Know Nothing organization was established
to rid the country of the giant corruptions
of the Democratic party, and it succeeded
as far as was then possible. No matter now
about the means employed the end justi
fied them. It was fighting fire with fire.
But. mark ye! the Know Nothings did not
involve the country in a blocdy civil war,
as the Democratic party afterwards did,

2ip!y Here the Tribune is at least
candid. He bravely admits what very
few K. N.'s have the honesty to admit
that he was a Know Nothing. Yes ; the

Olic! He tcil- us that now Republicans

Now the grave question arises, does the
editor of the Tribune vote for foreigners
and Catholics when on the Kepublican
ticket? He says he does 1 Then ihe al
ternative presents itself, that he has com
mitted m ral pe'jury by violating the
oath which he took in the face of high
heaven, never to do so. Aud he coolly
excuses himself with the stan Iiult apology
for every ciime, that "the end ju.tiiies the
means." "No matter how about the
means employed the end justified them,"
says the Tribune "Get money, Satnivel,
honestly if you can but get money,"
was old Mr. Weller'a advice to his son
and the editor of the Tribune is a faithful
follower of the doctrine. But "neither
the foreigner nor the Roman Catholic is
to-day the worse of its having existed."
How know you that ? Wasn't the
slaughtered Darsie the worse for it ?
Were not a large number of the porest and
best men in the country driven from her
councils and marked in private life by the
machinations of this hellish cabal. For
eigners and Roman Catholics were "the
worse for it" society was "the worse for
it ' social decency and our character as
a people were ,;;be worse for it."'
Tribune "Rut it is a mean thing to en
deavor to stir up strife between thop who
weie political foes fourteen years ago. and
who have long since smoked the pipe of
sectarian and fraternal peace. As well
might ice revive, the recollection of the ex
tra'.rdinary clerical feats of the editor of the
Freeman when he was a resident tf 'M- ni'
ounty, or tell the world, what he wouM
doubtless gladly wish forgotten, that he.
the said editor, was one of the first, the
verv firnt, members of the Republican party
of Cambria county, a regular reader of the
New York Tribune and a believer in all its
tenets, which weie tho same then as now.
But we will not refer to these things' We
are opposed to fighting with poisoned
arrows."
Reply But it seems we have done a
mean thins in referring to the Tribune's
former Know Notbingism ! We fail to
"see it" in that litiht. The former politi
cal associations of a press or an editor,
are a fair subject of comment, and we
complain of no man for referring to the
past political career of the Fhekmxn or its
editor. When the editor of the Tribune
was a Know Nothing the Tribune itself
was a Know Nothing paper. A man
should never join an association which he
becomes ashamed of afterwards. But if
it is mean of us to charge the editor of the
Tribune with being a Know Nothing,
how superlatively mean was it for him to
be one. He is valiantly blowing the Rad
ical trumpet note fourteen years hence he
will be equally ashamed of that, ar d
tmns n mean to rcminn mm or it. rs.r
should we seek to galvanize'into existence
the defunct carcass of Know Noihitigism
orly that Hickman, and other of the inoi 6
candid Radicals, still show that it is
latent in the Kadical party, ready to crop
out whenever a political necessity requires
it. And, notwithstanding the Tribunes
pretended liberality to foreigners, whenever
the desire to obtain or retain power makes
it necessary to doff the Radical and don
the Know Nothing, it will stand just
where it did in 1854. While its editor,
in common with many other K. N.s, has
too much intelligence to imbibe the igno
rant prejudices against "foreigners and
Catholics," whenever the thirst of power
requires that those portions of our fellow
citizens should be disfranchised, he would
be ready to do again what he has done
before unless, prr'.iap, the Catholic
should have the mitigating quality of be
ing a negro. What he would do then is
the only puzzle.
The former opinions of the editor of the
Fuekman are of but little consequence to
the world Such as they are, or were,
they have never been hidden. They have
always been uttered in the light of day, and
not concealed within the foul portals of a
Know Nothing lodge. He was an Old
Line Whig when Clay and Webster were
Old Line Whigs, and he now stands where
the children of Clay and Webster stand.
He was the reader of the New York
Tribune for a whole year, while that pa
per opposed the Know Nothings. At
that time the Kepublican doctrine was
non-interference with the rights and insti
tutions of the Southern States, and oppo
sition to tba erection of" rievr slaVe StateS.
The editor of the Fkkf.han never voted a
KtpuU can ticlit, different as their doc
trine was from that of the Radicals. At
that time Greely had not pronounced fur
negto and female suffrage had not bailed
Jeff. Davis because Kadical judges bad
I refused to try him and had not yet called
the com try Radical editors including him
of the Tribune a set of "blockheads."
The liribune is "opposed to f ghting wi;h
poisoned arrows" that is afUr they have
left his quiver; but very meanly, :s we
think, makes an insinuation about our
personal character, by referring to our
"clerical feats" in "Morris"' county.
While it complains of us for referring to
the editor's political position fourteen years
ago, it attacks our jiersonal character bv
innuendo as to what occurred thirty years
ago. If we could be guilty of the TribunSo
sophistry we might lay the alleged offence
to the teachings of bis paity, and dare
him to scan our Democratic record for
anything of the kind eince we have got
into purer company.
We were clerk of the Morris township
election, in 1838, and took down the
names of voters as given us by the offic rs.
They were proeecuted, and we were
subpoenaed as a witness against them.
Thry were acquitted. Two of them
since died in the odor of Kadical sanctity
two of them still live, and are as bitter
Radicals as the editor of the Tribune, and
would not thank him for his remarks
As he ovijht to know something about
what he discusses, we beg leave to refer
him to these surviving election officers,
and no doubt he will get further evidence
cf our mifc jnduct by addressing Mr. Gee
Davis, Yellow Springs, or Wm. Hammond.

' Southern Mckders Who Commit
Them ? Whenever any radical firebrand,
loyal leaguer or negro is killed or hurt in
the South the radical press and orators of
the North make a ttrrible noise about it.
They ring the changes and howl day alter
day about rebel outrages, rebel hatred and
rebel murderers, but we never hear any
thing from them concerning the murdered
Southern whites and Mac' outrages. The
radical papers are fuil of sensation ac
counts and denunciations of the murder of
A.-hburne, in Georgia, but they say no
thing about the white one-armed ex-confederate
soldier who was shot dead on his
horm recently near Selma, Alabama, or
of the other four white men who have been
murder d in the same vicinity since the
war, and no one arrested for these. murders.
No, we hear nothing from these Radicals,
of the numerous other murders of the con
quered Southern whites and outrages ou
them in other localities of the Sutb.
because there is every re&sori to believe
ibis is the work of the black loyal leHitucrs.
At a public profession uud meeting of
negroes at Macon. Georgia, on March 30,
the "loyal blacks"' carried a b;n:;er on
which the figure of a negro, cut in paste
board, hung dangling from a gallows, ami
t which was attached, on a piece of white
paper, the following inscription : "Every
man who don't vote a Kadical ticket this
is the way we want to do him hang hira
by the neck." Thcsa radical loyal league
negroes boldly proclaimed, too, that the
negro who failed to register should receive
thirty-nine lashes ; if he failed to vote at
the election, two hundred lashes, and if be
voted the democratic ticket he should be
hanged. Need we be surprised, then, that
white Southerners are murdered in every
part ot the South and that the murderers
are never arrested? Tha Northern friends
of these black barbarians pretend not to
know anything about these murderous
doings. It is clear that the South under
radical rule is fast tending to anarchy and
to a worse condition than St. Domingo
was ever in. Jfeic York Herald.
The mongrel conspirators no longer put
a cloak upon their treasonable acts, nor a
bridle upon their tongues. Says the
Washington correspondent ef the Phila
delphia Inquirer : "In two weeks time
Andrew Johnson will cease to be the Pi ev
ident of the United States, and the Exe
cutive an ! Legislative branches of ; the
Government be in perfect harmony. That
done, the next utep will be to reconstruct
the Supreme Court, by seeming a majority
of the judgep, who shall be in poli:icl
acci rd and sympathy with the great party
of the p opIe now dominant in nearly every
State in the Union. To do this it will be
necessary to increase the number of justi
ces to thirteen." This means that Presi
dent Johnson's "crime" is want of harmo
ny with the treasonable schemes of the
Kadical leaders to force themselves as
rulers upon the people through bayonets
and negro vnffrage. It means also that
the Supreme Court has been guilty of the
same "crime," and, after the President
shall have been disposed of, it must be
proMituted to the base uses of the partisan
conspirators by adding to it a lot of the
lowest partisan tools that can be fished up
from the dirty political pool. What think
the honest, decent, patriotic citizens of
Pennsylvania of such an infamous plot ?

RIi:s. Lincoln's Opinion of Gu.vnt
Mrs. Lincoln had her own views of those
who held high positions under her hus

out very freely. Her opinion of Grunt
wa not Mattering, but, unless we are much
mistaken it will generally be regarded as
remarkably correct. In the bearing of her
spouse, flie said :
"Grant is a butcher, and is not ft ;ob:
at the head of our army." Hut," replied
Mr. Lincoln, "he Has been very aucoer-s-ful."
"Yes," replied Mrs. Lincoln, "ho
generally manages to claim a victory, but
such a victory. He lo-es two men for the
Cr.emy's one. If the war should cont nu?
four ytars longer, ai:d he in power, he
would depopulate the North According
to his tactics there is nothing under heaven
to do but to inarch a new hne of men uu
in front of the Uebel breast wo: Is to be spot

Grant, I repeat, is an obstinate foul and a
butcher."
That is decidedly povere on the gentle
man who amokes in silence, but we have j
no doubt the judgment of roste.ity will
fully corroborate the opinion expre.'ied by
Mrs. Lincoln.
