DEMOCRATIC IiATIONAL CONVENTION.
—Fred. 0. Prince, of Boatqn, Secretary
of the National Democratic Committee,
has honed an official call for the meeting
of said committee. to be held in Wash
ugton on the W.d of February, to name
the time and place for holding the next
Democratic National tlonvention. -
POPE .00T OF THE SADDLE."
President Johnson, M was some time
ago intimated would be the cue, has re
moved the "veracious" Satrap Pope, and
appointed Gen. Meade in his stead. Gen.
tli . rd has also "gone by the board," and
will be succeeded by Gen. McDowell.
The President is thus continuing to de
monstrate that, so far as he Is concern
ed; the lairs shall be executed In the in
terests of the country, and not solely for
theibeneat of unprincipled Northern ad
venturers and ignorant Southern negroes.
For this additional evidence of the Pres
ident's genuine patriotism, the people
cannot but feel gi turret. Radical edi
tore and leaders may howl, but their
bluster will be of little account now.
Their mod ves t I office and plunder,) being
understood, their denunciations will hurt
nobody. The President is right, and as
long as he is so the PEOPLE will stand
b him.
DISASTER AT SEA.—The steamship
Raleigh, which loft New York Saturday
week, with the usual number of passen
gers, for New Orleans, was burned twen
ty miles off the coast of Charleston op
Tuesday. Eighteen of her passengers
and crew arrived in a tug at Charleston
on Thurchiy. 'thirteen lives aro sup
posed to have been lost, Capt. Hershman
included, and twenty-four persons, who
were last seen in the boat or clinging to
pieces of the wreck, are missing. The
Raleigh was u large sidewheel steamer,
belonging to the Atlantic Coast lien
steamship Company..
When we visited Charleston, in
1860; on the steamer "Keystone State,"
Capt. Hershman had command of that
flue vessel. lie was reputed SS n first
class officer, and certainly had the bear
ing of an intelligent And ..well-bred gen
tleman. His admirable management of
the steamer during the heavy storm we
encountered on the return trip, won high
encomiums from all lie passengers.
Resolutions of thanks were adopted, and
published in the Philadelphia papers.
We most devoutly hope he has been
saved.
Rsr•on•rs from the south state that du
ring the present winter severe distress
Iv anticipated among both the whites
and the negroes, especially among the
latter. It is reported that the freedmen
are being discharged in large numbers
by their - employers, on account of a
scarcity of food and means, And starva
tion hi many instances is actually at the
door of both whites and blacki. in Mk
slisippi Governor Ilunaldireys has
issued a proclamation stating that he
has received sgi•h information respec
ting projected outbreaks among the no
groes, that he finds-It necessary to warn
•`all combinations for such a purpose
that their intentions are known and
they cannot succeed, and that if the
black race believes the lands will be
distributed among them they are great
ly deceived."
Ger. GILLEN!, of the Freedmen's Bu-
Fenn, reports that the negroes in the
South are in an awful condition of want
and driven almost to desperation. "Re
construction" has discouraged or broken
down the Montero, and hence they have
no work for the great mass of blacks.
As a consequence the latter are brought
to want or driven to theft and Murder.
The dying curse of every starved negro
and of every murdered white mitt should
fall upon the Radical leaders in the
Rump Congreao, whose ignominiously
selfleh "policy" has brought,about "this
state of MBA ro.

Is also stated that a plot has been con
cocted among them for a general massa
cre. At, any rate Gen. Ord has been ap
pealed to for troops to protect the people,,
and Col. Jacques, at one time a peace
commissioner to Richmond and of late a
resident of Arkansiss, has gone to Wash

' MURDER IN NV AsHmarcoN.—On rist
mae night, while three men were turning
a corner in the. First Ward of the city of
Washington, one of them ran against a
colored man, who in company with a
colored woman, was going In the oppo
site direction. The colored man, after
uttering an oath, fired his revolver at the
white man, who has since died from the
effects of his wound. The murderer es
caped.
ME investigations of the Committee
appointed by the Hump House to inquire
into the "loyalty" and antecedents of
the •Rentueky delegation of Democrats,
cost the taxpayers the enormous sum of
four hundred thousand dollars, and not
particle of evidence of "disloyalty" was
found. The Rrimp Rads consider fifty
or a hundred thousand - dollars of the
people's money as nothing when they
want to throw out a Democratic mem
ber of Congress, who was honestly
elected.
Hoer. Cornelius S. Hamilton, the Re
publican member of Congress from the
Delaware District - in Ohio, was killed by
his Insane son at Marysville, on Sunday

him on the back of the head with aboard,
killing him instantly. The father had
gone from Washington for the purpose
~_ofvemovirig him to a Lunatic asylum.

RADICAL RECONNTUCCTION
Speaker Colfax. has written a letter to
a Mr. Conway, of New Orleans, lo
which lie declares that the Radical par
ty will take no backward steps; thst
they will notinodify the terms of recon
struction in any' essential feature one
hair's breadth. This letter has been
published in the South, and Is accepted
by the ultra Radicals of thstsection as
the corner-stone of their otgabization.
litimekett end flessitton ate- preaching
this doctrine to the negates In the league
looms, anti urging them to. demand a
full equality of rights In all particulars.
The idea of office and pay, emoluments
anti spoils, is held eat to the negroes as
a reward for their steady adhesion to
the dominant party. They are told that
no matter what their demands may be,
they will be granted, that the negro
platform will not be changed one hair's
breadth. Upon this ides governor
Rrownlow has.erected the State govern
ment of Tennessee, and in all parts of
the South the party In power are acting
upon the same principle. They are in
favor of reconstruction nets, that, will
place the balance of political power in
the hands of the negroes, send negroes
to the Senate and peace of Representa 2
tives, elevate them to the gubematorlaT
chairs of the Southern 'States, and In
till, manner reduce the white people of
that section to the condition of holding
their lives, liberty and property at, the
mercy of negroes: These are the effects
of the reconstruction plan put in force
by the Radical party in the 'South, and
from this Speaker Colfax declares they
will not depart one hair's breadth. ,
But there are evidences of the most i
po.itive character thitt the people, both
North and South, will depart from the
Africanizine scheme of the Radicals.
The late elections in the North prove
this fact. Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, California
and other States repudiated the negro
policy, and proclaimed hi favor of a
white man's government. They tire not
willing to make a Hayti out of one por
tion of the nation.' They do not believe
in beggaring millions of white men,
women and children; destroying birsi:
ness, and producing a war of races, rah
all its untold horrors, in order tillt
Mr. Colfax or some other politi
cal uspimnt may be carried into the
White House on the dark and turbulent
wave. The North will not endorse the
action of Congress with reference to the
Southern States. Nor are the white
people of the South patient under the
load heaped upon them. Even the
leaders of the Radical party in that
section are becoming alarmed at the
march of events; startled at the course
pursued by the men who areguldleg and
controlling the negroes. They fear a
conflict between the whites and blacks,
and the destruction of all feline of civil
government. in Alabama the papers
are almost unanimous in condemnation
of the action of the Constitutional Con
vention. The Huntsville Advocate, a
Radical organ, calls for the reassembling
of the Convention to modify the objec
tionable portions of the proposed Coma)...
tutlon —namely, the clause With reference
to schools, the franchise and registration
oaths, and says, "if the Constitution is
not modified, environed as we are, and
almost in a state of anarchy, its adoption
can only be accepted RS a Iboice of evils, ,
and defended as right and proper. But !
it Is in our power to modify the evils I
now," and for that purpose urges a call of
the Convention together again. The Tus
cumbia North Alabamian opposes nom
inations and the action of the Conven
tion, and the Huntsville Advocate re
pudiates the action otthe Radical meet
ings in North Alabama, and declares the
"white" Unionists are ignored and re
jected as unsound. In all parts of the
State white men are leaving the Radi
cal party on account of those features
of the proposed Constitution which places
them in subjection to the negroes. They
are determined to defeat that instru
ment at all hazards, believing that only
by such a course can peace, order, and
prosperity be restored to the nation.
While the reconstruction policy of the
Radical party is thus repudiated - North
and South, while its effects can be seen
in the starving condition of the people
of the once prosperous South, Speaker
Colfax, on behalf of the party in power,
declares that Congress will not take a
single backward step in reconstruction,
that they will not modify the plan under
whl^h the Southern States are now gov
emid one hair's breadth. This is the
platform for the future. Let the people
of the South starve, perish the business
of that section, in order that negroes
may vote for the next President, and
thus secure the triumph of the Radical
party. Radical reconstruction must now
be measured by its avowed meaning and
intent. The people, can no longer mis
take the purposes of the men who are
&siting on, the negro column in the
South. They are so apparent, so offen
sive to the white people of that section,
that a general abandonment of the negro
platform is taking place. These are
facts which Speaker Colfax and his par
ty must face. Reconstruction on the
negro basis is a failure, and if Congress
attempts to force it upon the nation,
they will be crushed to powder beneath
the weight of public indignation.—Age.
DISSATIEFAC/lON OF §OIITREAN RADI
BALs.—The Southern Radicals, it seems,
are very much dissatisfied_with the ac
tion of the Republican executive com
mittee In fixing so early a date as the
20th of May for the meeting of the Re
publican Presidential Nominating Con
vention. The Washington Star says:
"They say it is scarcely probable that
the Southern States will be admitted to
representation in Congress before that
time, and as the committee has decided
that only such States as are represented
in Congress shall be entitled to send del
egates to the National Convention, they,
are virtually debarred from all participa
tion In the choice of candidates for the
Presidency and Vice-Presidency. It is
alleged that this action upon the part
of the committee was taken with a view
to secure the -nomination of General
Grant, as It is known that a majority of
the Southern radicals are in :favor of
Chief Justice Chase for the Presidency.
The project of holding a- separate con
vention is seriously contemplated by the
leaders of this diesathtibithaleas of Repub
licans."

He traveled from Jacksonville to Tal

and plunder were daily reported. The
cotton crop was a signal failure, and
the little that matured is carried away.
by the negroes, if not from the field,
from the gin houses, scores of which
have been broken into and plundered.
But little corn was raised, and that little
is going the way of the cotton, Cattle,
hogs and sheep are nightly massacred
by the freedmen and carried off. One
gentleman had three cattle shot on one
day, but the wounded animals made
their way home before' they were cap
tured by the desperadoes. A lady, who
a fee , months ago, had over eleven hun
dred head of sheep, has not one to her
name to-day—all killed and carried off
by negroes. The Captain thinks that
cotton planting on a large scale has
ceased in Florida, at lete-t under the
present system of labor, over which the
employer seems to have no control.—
With the failure of the great staple, and
the plunder of the remnant of the crop,
which might in part have paid the ad
vance for raising the same, and without
corn to last longer than the opening of .

Florida are truly in a fitiable c4ndition.

IMPORTANT REMOVALS
WAsiti:vr,Toz , :, December at—An tore
shadowed in these dispatches some days
ago, the President has relieved' General
Pope from email:id of the third Wilt*.
ry district, and named Gen. Meade as
the succe , sor In thht command. This
action can be readily undeNtond by all
who have been observant of the course
pursued by General Pope in the matter
of removals of State officers, who were
ikeAllidiaWd without the assignment of
facts constituting obstruction to the law;
but especially hal( General Pope's con
duct been objectionable to the Executive
in so far as that military commander,
whilst In the exercise of his official dit
ties, has sought to Identify himself jia a
political partisan, and in working olien
ly and avowedly in the interes of the
radical party.
It is not expected that Gen al Meade
will give himself over to t interest of
any party, and certainly no understand
ing of any kind has toon entered into
between that officer d the President
as to the course that hall be pursued in
the conduct of a Ira in the third dis
trict.
I, have it fro / unquestionable authori
ty that Gene I Meade is selected to sue
eeed Getter Popwsimply upon the belief
that the rme
Gene
r will. execute the recon
struction' laws to the letter, and at the
same 'fine in such a manlier as to give to
non Just cause for complaint of tyran
nyz,or partial exercise of the almost un-
Ifirifted powers conferred upon district
commanders. There is no foundation in
fact for the reports in the papers that
General Meade remonstrated against his
appointment to the command, and that
he at the same time Indicated that if ap
pointed he would exceed General Pope
in rigorous execution of the law.
Gen. Ord trot long since requested that
he might be relieved from command of
the fourth district, and on that account,
and in the hope that anew officer in
charge of that district might possibly
avoid some of the errors committed by
the late commander, and govern the dis
trict In a more consistent and systematic
manner than it has heretofore been
managed, Gen. Ord was relieved.
It was shown saTisfactorily to the
President that General Wager Swayne
has been making use of his official posi
tion in Alabama for his (Swayne's) own
political advancement, and therefore the
order that he be relieved front duty in
that State and join his regiment in Nash
ville.
Tin conduct of Oen. Hancock, since
he took command of the Louisiana dis
trict, is highly praised. He discharges
his delicate and arduous duties with
great prudence and justice, and with
entire absence of any feeling of malevo
lence toward the unfortunate people he
is sent to rule over. His revocation of
the tyrannical orders of his immediate
predecessor, his regard Piz. the rights
of the people, and his declaration that
the military is subordinated to the civil
power,mot only mark him as a soldier
and patriot, but are evidence that he
understands the true theory of our gov
ernment; and means to preccKve intact
the constitutional guarantees the
peo
ple. It is so seldom that one clothed
with the millilitre! power lie p0..e.5.e.,
-uses it so wisely and so well. that his
conduct attracts greater attention The
liberty of the people will always be safe
in the hands of such a commander. It
will not diminish the high estimation
in which the people hold . Hancock to
recall the fact that he was violently op
posed to the Military Commission which
tried the murderers of Lincoln, and
doubted bath the legality of that tribunal
and the guilt of Mrs. Surratt. As com
manding officer of that department, it
devolved on him to carry out the sen
tence on the conspirators, and only the
urgent entreaties of his friends prevented
his resigning his position, rather Alm
carry it into execution. He endeavored
to have the judgment modified in the
case of Mrs. Sarnia, but it is believed
his communications were delayed in
the War Office and never reached the
President.—Erie 015,erver.
AN interesting interview between
General Hancock and the Chief of Police
of Nev Orleans is described in the Pica
mine of that city. The latter official, it
appears, had certain prisoners in his
custody, and had determined to disobey
a writ of habeas corpus issued from a
civil court. The account in the Pica
yune thus refers to the interview :
General Hancock stated to Major Wil
liamson, Chief of Pollee, that he bad
learned that owing to some illegality it
was probable that it would not be obeyed.
That writ, Mr.:Chief of Police, (remarked
General H.,)' must be obeyed. I will
hold you responsible in this matter.—
Those prisoners must be produced. I
believe you will produce them, but I
will myself take the necessary precaution
that they be produced. I have issued
an order that the writ of habeas corpus
is to be observed, and it shall be. I am
here to protect the dignity of the gov
ernment, and the rights of the people
as to life, liberty, and property, must
be preserved. So long as lam in power
here, the law shall be respected.
I know nothing, Mr Chief of Police,
about tbis case ; do not know what these
men are charged with, but it is sufficient
for me to know, and you to know, that
a writ of habeas corpus has been issued.
and that writ sbyyll be respected. I •will
sink the boat in the middle of the river
with cannon that takes these men on
board, and intercept any train of cars
that carries them. If the law is not
observed, who and what is safe? l may
be taken away, you may be, any of us
maybe. Justice must be upheld. I . hold
you, therEfore, Mr. Chief of Police, re
sponsible for the delivery of these men
before Judge Theard, in obedience to
that writ.

and on last court day it was sold. A
handsome residence at Walthourville,
with ten acres attached, outhouses and
all the necessary appendages of a first
class planter's residence, were sold for
sixty dollars. The purchaser was the
agent of the freedmen's bureau. His
plantation, four hundred and fifty acres
of prime land, brought one hundred and
fifty dollars; sold to Mr, Fraser. Sixty

Lecture free.
Town Clock.—The new Town Clock is
up! Mr. J. D. Custer, of Norristown,
the builder, has been engaged several
days in placing the clock in the Court
house cupola, and yesterday evening
started it going. It looks to be a capital
piece of workmanship, and will, w e doubt
not, prove an excellent timekeeper—a
convenience which this place has been
without for several years. The cost of
the clock is borne by Mr. H. D. Wattles,
Treasurer elect, in accordance with a
promise made by him last fall. He
hoped to have It up months ago, but as
town clocks are not built in a day, the
delay has been unavoidable. It le now
in its place, however, and running—a
fact which the public highly appreciate.

ty or seventy gentlemen with keen rel

and handsomely decorated, presented a
most interesting scene. The whole af
fair was a very enjoyable one, and will
not soon be forgotten by those who had
the pleasure of being present.

Bold Thieves.—On Saturday night
week, a gang of thieves visited the barn
of Mr. Jacob Musselman, near Falitield,
and took therefrom a string of sleigh
bells; then went to Mrs. T. A. Marshall's,
from which they stole two strings of
bell, and a ~ et of harness. As Indicated
by tracks in the snow, they traveled in a
wagon. A few days after, a Search War
rant was procured, and the house occu
pied by three brothers, named Myers, at

searched, when the missing geode were
found, with sonic others stolen froin Mr.

Dead Laters—lt Is pronounced not
true that the Postmaster General has in
structed Poitmasters to treat all letters
directed with a lead pencil the same as
dead letters, to be forwarded at once to
the Dead Letter office, at Washington.
No such instructions have been issued.
While It is desirable that all letters be
distinctly and legibly directed, with ink
if possible, all letters legibly directed,
(whether with pen or pencil,) and pro
perly stamped, are sent to their destina
tion.

Mr. F. Rahter, manufacturer of the

AT a large meeting of Conservatives
held at Montgomery, Alabama, to take
action 4ainst the ratification of the
Negro Constitution lately formed by the
Mongrel Convention, Hun. John
Forsyth, of Mobile, in his speech thus
defines the Conservative attitude towards
the negroes':
"We must struggle to pull the negi‘o
race out of the fangs of the vipers who,.
like the anaconda, slimes the victim the
more easily to devour him. We must
convince them that the devils are-driv
ing them like a Hock of sheep—as in noce nt
as ignorant—to the brink of the preci
pice, over the verge of which is a war
of races, wherein numbers, experience
and intellectual superiority can lead to
but one issue, their extermination from
the face of the land.* The negro must
be taught that while we wish him every
earthly and heavenly blessing, while
we would give him every civil right,
security to life, to property, to education
for his children, temples in which to
worship hie God, guidance, frienship and
protection, that he can nowhere domi
nate over the white man, and that in
this Government, created expressly by
white men and for white men, he shall
never do IL"

A very loyal gent
Bemoan himself moat bitterly,
And thus he did If/pent:
"Now all our loving countrymen
That feeling hearts possess,
Come listen to our tale of woe,
And pity our %stream.
Our party was of power possessed
Until the other day;
But now our strength Ic growing less,
And failing day by day.
And, oh! If you could hear our groans
And see our tearful faces
Whenenr the bitter thought occurs
That we may lose our places.
We boasted of our loyalty,
The people to deceive;
But lately they have found It out—
'Twas Only 'make believe.'
And then we set the negro up,
That votes we might not lack,
And hoped we might regain our power
By riding on his bock.
But many of the States oflate
. Have voted Isle rejection;
And if we lose the negro vote
We ieee the neat election.
We tried to squelch the President,
Despite the people's ..N11; .
We did our best to frighten him,
But It was all 'no go.'
There's General Grant might help our MI"
It anybody can;
If he would tAtt his creed declare,
And speak out like a man.
If things go on from bad to worse,
As lately they've begun,
We shan't elect our President,
And shall be all undone.
Do help us, neighbors, all you can,
And give your hearty wishes
That we may still to power remain
And share the haves and fishes."
