THE GETTYSBURG COMPILER, FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 11, 1868.
SE - NA ronaowav or •••ousrmAitt
I =SI
Hon. Morrow B. Lowry, of Erie, Is
writing a series of letters defending
himself against attacks in the Gazette
of that cites•. In his first lie admits the
charge that he was instrumental in re
leasing a number of persons who had
'been imprisoned for the mere expres
sion of their opinions, and says he feels
"no blush of shame"—"nn doubts of
Republican orthodox,. "—for the course
he pursued. Ife acknowledges that "in
those exciting days of the war" "many
good men and more weak OUCFI seemed
to loon their halanee"—that what he
did he "believed July With to Clod and
hurnanity" required him to do—that
the arrests referred to were "Illegal
and unjustifiable,"—and that his
"chief anxiety" twits to "ward ofT this
great shame" whieli did more to hum
ble our country In the estimation of
patriotic met! than rebellion itself.
All this, remarks the Observer, elm
ply reiterates our own views at the time,
and, coming from the pen of the ad
mitted leaders:4 the Republican party
in this part of the State, will do much
towards changing the views of mem•
bets of that party In respect to the pre
eitlon of Democrats upon the question.
It Is a pity that Mr. Lowry did not
feel impelled to mnke his views pub
: licly known while the events alluded
to were transpiring, since he might
_have prevented much wrong from he-
Dig done, and helped to dispel much of
the prejudice which has grown out of
these very occurrences that be now
characterises aa "illegal and unjusti
fiable."
One of the most Important revels
ion. which Mr. Lowry-Maes upon
his subject is that In which he states
that It was at one lime seriously con
templated to arrest Hon. Wm. A. Wal
lace and Gov. Bigler. "Many," he
says, "were clamorous for their arrest—
some Influenced by excitement, others
by mercet4ry motives"—but better
counsels prevailed, and lie congratu
lates himself upon having been ongpf
the most native In averting the stigtAli,
in which, fur their credit let it be said,
"the leading Republicans of the Leg
islature and the men of the party" sus
telped him. How much basis there
was for the proposed incarceration of
these gentlemen we leave Air. Lowly
to tell in his own language:
"There is this that I may say of Sen
ator Wallace—that while I have and
did darer from him all through the
war, as our Senatorial records show, as
far as men could differ, yet I have
always found him In private life au
honorable gentleman and true to his
friends. • • And of Governor Big
ler lids: that the hardest day's work I
ever did in my life, was In 1411, in the
hospitals after the battle of Bull Run, I
administering to sick and wounded I
soldiers, and that my best, most faith
ful, and untiring assistant—among
many—was Oov. Bigler."
It seems scarcely possible that the
period could ever have existed In this
country, boasting of its freedom, when
men like these cotird have been dragged
from their homes and thrown into a I
dungeon without charge or trial; and
yet, shameful as the fact now appears,
such occurrences did once happen daily,
and citizens claiming to be liberty-lov
ing men sustained the crime, while
those who had the courage toiletigma
tiZe it as It deserved were either treat
ed In the same manna, or bounded
down with the meanest of epithets.
The progress of time is rapidly exhibit
ing.all these things In their true light,
and it will not be many years until
those who had a share In them
will be ashamed to acknowledge
the fact, either privately or publicly.
One by one the positions of the Demo
eratic patty during the war are being
endorsed by the popular Judgment,
and among them none will be more
unanimously approved than the one
it occupied in this matter of arbttrat!
arrests.

After the election of 18114, the Demo
crate had the Governor of but a single
State In the Union„ Delaware. Bram;
tette, of Kentucky, was not then a
Democrat, having been elected b%
what was called the "Union" Dully.
After the election of PICA, we havolhe
Governors of Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, Delaware, Marylacd,
KetAuelty and California. We have
also recovered the State of Oregon,
which cast Its vote for Seymour, and
the States of Georgia and Louisiana,
by immense makuitles. These three
States will have Democratic Govern
ors An another year, which will give
us the control of the executive power
In ten States. This shows the recu
perative energy of the Democracy.
Next year we shall defeat Geary,
which will bring Pennsylvania cnee
more Into line. We are growing
stronger. Courage, Democrats! For
ward in the good cause! Now is the
time for effective work. Your neigh.
bone heads are cool at present. Talk
with them.
A Nemaotkowsreazuz—A correspon
dent of the Pottsville Standard from
the town of Helfenstein, fiebuyidli
county, I a torms that journal that Peter
Smith, an ebony colored * descendant of
Africa, has lately received a- commie
sion from Governor Geary to act as a
policeman for the latter place. Said
correspondent says:
We had hoped that it would require
some legislation. at least. to so far
change our Constitution as to give the
negro the right of citizenship in our
State; but It seems to be taken for
granted that the late elections have
given the Radicals privilege to do as
they please, constitutional enactments
to the contrary notwithstanding.—
Now, If Peter Smith, the negro, Is
prohibited from the rights of citizen
ship by the State Constitution, by
what right can he act as a county po
iletman, even under the Governor's
commission? And is the Governor
himself not liable to censure, at least,
for granting a commission under the
eircumstances?
WHOSE FeuL't?—lf Seymour and
Blair had been elected, the tightness
in the money market, the great de
cline in grain, the high price of coat,
and the general unsteadiness of the
whole country, would have been
charged to that event. The good
times, the peace and quiet promised
us by their defeat is slow coming.

Whilst Forney's Press and other
boastful and untruthful Radical news
papers are puttliehing obituary notices
of the Democratic party, the N. Y.
Sun very Pagaelously intimates to
them (lint there le little ground for
such extravagant Jubilation. It sums
up the result of the late election as fol-
lows
Though the Republicans obtained
In the rtsient contest nearly three
fourths .of the Presidential Dieters,
the, Democrats are in a minority of on
ly about 210,-000 li a popular vote of
8,000,000; i. c , only four and a half
per cent. This statement exhibits in
it striking light the important loot
that the dispirit) , between the two
parties is far less than would seem to
be Indicated by the number of the
electors choecu by each.
Despite their overthrow In the late
campaign, the Democracy remain
a very powetful pnrty. No political
organization in our history has Teemed
through such severe trials and been
conipehed to bear ouch odious burdens
as has the Democratic party during
the past fourteen years,
Neverthele-s, in spite of then ad
reumstances, and of the dead
they carried in the revolution
dicy of their candidate for Vice
} ...Aleut, the Democracy exhibited
uimxpected strength in the late con-
Mot, and now stand upon the edge of
the 'male field in powerful numbers,
and uuder a rennakable s, to of disci
pline.
Upon this the Lanottaterialeileon
ccr remarks :—A fair estimate of the
number of white men disfranchised
by tyrannical legislation shows that
they amounted to nearly half a
million. Had the people been per
mitted to vote according to the provi
slone of the Constitution, the popular
majority for Seymour would have
been as large as it now is for Grant.
The election was controlled by despot
ic acts of Congress, enforced by a
standing army. In some States the
right to vote's; es denied to all the in
habitants, In others to a couslderable
portion of them. The Democracy
were beaten by brute force alone.
They know how they were treated,
and are able to see how victory was
wrested from their grasp. They nat
urally feel luillguaut, and their 'reso
luteness of purpose is consequently
entirely unshaken. The Sun very
properly describes the present atti
tude of the. Democratic party as
"standing upon The edge of the battle
field In powerful numbers, and under
a remarkable elate of discipline) ,
There is no ile•oorallaution in our
ranks, and our hosts will enter upon
coming contests with the same indom
itable energy whlCh has always dis
tinguished them. Believing In the
Immutability of the great principles
upon which the creed of the Demo
cratiparty Is based, the leaders and
the asses are alike confident that
they must triumph ,o soon aa a free ex
pression of publie.opinion takes place
In this country. Nothing can prevent
the speedy overthrow of the corrupt
and tyrannical party now in power,
*Wept such a - eliange in the organic
constitution of our government as will
deprive the people of control over It.
So soon as electloon become perfectly
free again, the reign of Radicalism
must end, and with the triumph of
the Democracy the nation will enter
upon a new career of prosperlty o , and
glory.
THE LATE OUTUAGE AND MANNA
EDE IN AMC . .
The Washington (Arkansas) 2We
graph of the bah gives the follow
ing particulars of the iste: terrible af
fair in that State, already .brestly'ao
ticed by telegraph. It appears that on
Wednesday, the 10th ult., a; band of
between two and three hundred mon
entered the little town of Centre Point,
in Sevier county, -- nbont tweraperight
miles from Wasthington, and took poe
tession of the place. Taken by tour
prise, the cltisens were entirely de
fenceless, and were marshaled en mane
in au open field, where they were kept
until four o'clock in the aftertoon,
not knowlog by what authority or for
what reason they were arrested. In
the meantime the town was ransacked
and pleactered by the armed wretches,
calling themoelves Clayton's (Radical)
militia, of everything of value, and
whatever they could not carry away
they destroyed. Finally and Captain
Reeves intdresaed the ongtheeltitens
in the following strain; es reported by
the Telegraph: • .„
"Governor filastmr had declared
martial- law In Sevier county. They
were thereto! n force his proclamation.
It was only the iiiikiation of what
would occur. ' Hfs hien Were enraged'.
It was with great difficulty hts coold'
restrain them. They %Minted to kill ten
or twelve men anyhow. .They want
to hang some of you fellows. We are
coming back here again, perhaps to
morrow," &c.
The darkest part of this Monstrous
outrage remains to he thlit , Next day
a number of citizens from the adjoin
ing county, hearing Itteported that
Jayhawkers had made a descent upon
Centre Point, came Into town, some of
them armed. A meeting was held,
and It was agreed to appoint commit
tees to visit Murfreesboro' and Wash
ington, to confer with Clayton and the
military authorities. While they
were still in consultation, the horde of
asaardas again entered the town, and
commenced au indiscriminate on
slaught, shooting down a number and
making prisoners of those who were
not fortunate enough to escape. They
afterwliz.h ....m i selected three citizens from
ni
aongthe dent and most respectable,
led them out, and murdered them in
cold blood. The Mb-graph thus con
eludes Its accouatof this blood-thirsty
brutality :
"Three other citizens of Sevier collo;
ty, Arkansas, noted for their reepecta•
bility and standing In theconainualty,
strong and unwavering advocates of
peace, law and order—respected for
their age and esteemed for their virtue
—Hester, Anderson and Gilbert by
name—living under a government de
clared by Congrens to be republican in
form, were led out to the scene of
slaughter and shot down like dogs by
men acting under instructions from
the Executive of the State."

Brodbacker was killed In the first fire,
and three of his party wounded, two of

Upon an inquest on the body this
evening, a verdict was rendered that

charging his duties as a epecial police
man on the sth of December, from a
gunshot wound In the face and head,
from the hands of a negro, one of a
party who were disturbing the peace
on the Thunderbolt road. The Jury
recommended that the State and coun

protect the citizens of the county from
the brutality of the negro population.
About thirty arrests have already been
made by the anther/hes.

MADISON, Indiana, December &.
The Madison Couricr eutys a terrible se
cident occurred on the Ohio river last
night at 11.30. The steamer United
States, which was descending, and the
America. ascending, collided at Rail's.
landing, about two miles above War
saw, ou the Indiana side.
The United States had a quantity of
petroleum on her guards. The Ameri
ca struck her on the starboard side of
the steps, cutting into her a considera
ble distance, and sinking her to about
the main 'deck. In ten minutes fire
was communicated In some way to the
petroleum, and both boats were soon
in flames.
It le said that • tome mistnke was
mule la her signals. The America
him her withdle twice. which the pilot
on the United States apparently did
not hear.
The America again signalled two
blasts of her whistle, and then the
States answered, but It was too late,
as both steamers were on the point of
colliding. It is believed that seventy
five to eighty persons have been !cot,
including thirty-eight women. W. C.
Taylor, clerk of the America, alter se
curing the books, register, and valu
ables, went through the cabin kinking
in the doors of state-rooms. Through
his intrepidity no lives were lost on
hie boat.
Mr. Juaken and lady Jumped to the
deck of the America, a distance of fif.
teen feet, and were saved.
Depember 6.—Further
particulars of the steamboat collision
yesterday, show a larger loss of life
than was first reported. Immediately
after the co lision the United States
was enveloped In dames, which in
stantly communicated to the America,
and both boats were completely de
stroyed in a few minutes. There were
about seventy-five cabin passengers on
the United States, more than half of
whom are known to be lost. The re
ports of the officers are very conflict•
lug, but as near as, we oau learn, forty
five passengers, inclodlng eighteen
ladies and seventeen of the officers
and cabin crew, are lost, while only

CINCINNATI, December 6.—A sjiec fal
to a New York piper _states that the
loss of life was frightful, supposed to
be between one and two hundred.—
Thirty-three ladies are known to have
perished. Major Smith, Paymaster U
nited States Army, and Colonel George
N. Northrop, Agent of the Peanuts/1 7
nia Central Railroad at Cincinnati,
are supposed to be lost. These boats
were the finest and largest on the
northern waters. Both were owned
by the same company, and ooet $400,-
000 each, and had state-rooms for three
hundred and fifty passengers. The
loss with the cargoes is over $1,000,000.
SOME men are not only witty them
selves, but. they often provoke the la
tent wit that is in others. General
Grant, on the other hood, is not only
silent and dull himself, but he is the
cause of dullness in others. He is ex
ceedingly fond of the Joys of the table,
and accepts all Invitations to diue, but
it seems with the tacit understanding
that there shall be no speech to break
the formal dullness of a public dinner.
The goalie gobble their viands with
dyspeptic haste, make their conge and
depart. In his heavy, leaden presence,
wit ceases to flow, and' eloquence,
light, pleasing and eitbrveecent as the
'champagne that inspires it, vanishes
abashed before him. In Boston and
Philadelphia, where he has been dined
and -coached to hie heart's content,
there has been no pleasant speech to
relieve the frigid ceremony of the oc
casion. Such after -dinner orators in
Philadelphia as Mayor hi'Michael,
end quote wits as Oliver Wendell
Holmes and James Russell Lowell, in
Boston, were constrained to Silence be
fore him, and the public were the los
ers. If he will not speak himself, he
should not be permitted to put his re
straint on others. Speech Is the facul
ty which distinguishes man from the
lower creation around him. These
droners to illyieses the Silent are be

Those who know say the reduction
of the tax on whiskey was made at the
request of "the ring." They wanted
to lay In a big supply at a low rate,
and relied upon their influence over
Congress to secure all advance as soon
as they had a large stock on hand. It
Is said to be certain that a change will
be made at the next session of Con
gress as soon as the members of "the
ring" art fully prepared for it. "The
ring" has an lu:unease quantity of
whiskey on hand already, and will in
crease its stores up to the day when the
tax is raised. Tint Whiskey Ring has
the Radical majority of the present
Congresscompletely under its control,
and there is no doubt that the corrupt
combination will have things Its own
way. Iv the ineantimethe Tenure-of-
Office Law protects all the whiskey
thieves In the country, and enables
them to continue their plundering
without let or - hindrance. There is no
doubt that Radical Congressmen are
bought and sold, like sheep in the sham
bles, by the whiskey ring and other gi
gantic monied monopolies. The pres
ent Congress is as corrupt as any Rad
ical Legislature of Pennsylvania ever
was. Row corrupt they havirbeen, all
