OEII COUNTY TICKET.
The candidates put in nomination by
the ftepubllcan County Convention, are
gill so, well and favorably known to the
public, that it is hardly necessary to speak
of them in detail. Dr. ,JORDY, the nom
inee for Assembly, is an accompliihed
yoing physician, who is making his
mark in the eastern section of the county,
reason of his professional skill, gen
eral intelligence, and excellent private

Mr. SHIVELY is widely known as a
"first-rate fellow," and will be elected
County CommissiOner i if his friends do
but half their duty. The Democratic
leaders are afraid of his acknowledged
popularity, and have already begun to
direct their assaults against him special
ly, in hope of holding the rank and file
to the support of Mr. LOTT, who has
neither claims nor capacity for the posi
tion.
Mr. Low, the candidate for Jury Coln
saissioner, enjoys a high reputation as a
man of stern integrity, who cannot be
enticed or driven by any manner of in

duty. His selections for the Jury box

He claims the ropier un thatrisitur
the Con,stitntion which lives 'the P-
dent "power to grant reprieves and par
dons Dir i ollbnces against the 11. States,
except in eases of iniptadment."
This has always' been held only to
authorise individual pardon, and sot to
include the power to grant a whnlesale
amnfstiy. •
Itt 1862, the,PRESLDENT was authorized
to g*ant an amnesty in these words :--
PT/lit the President is hereby authori
zed at any time hereafter by proclama
tion to extend to persons who may have
participated in the existing rebellion in
any State or part thereof, pardon and am
nesty with such exceptions and at such
times and on such conditions as he may
deem expedient for thopublic welfare."
This provision was repealed January
last. While the bill was in_ the Senate a
long discussion occurred on the question
as to whether the repealed section confer
red any power upon the Preiddent which
he did not possess under the Constitu
tion, and the best lawyers in that body
maintained that it did, to wit: a power
of wholesale amnesty, and that, there
fore, the repeal of the section deprived
him of that power, and left him nothing
but the simple pardoning power express-,
ed in the Constitution. If the President
issue a new proclamation in the face of
this action, it will be accepted as another
indication of his determination to over
ride the will of the people, as expressed
through Congress.
P. S.- - Yesterday 'a malls bring us the
new Amnesty Proclamation, which is a
sweeping, wholesale pardon of partici
pation in the Rebellion, excepting only
three classes, viz:-Ist—the chief execu
tive officers of the late Rebel Govern
ment,including the President, Vice Pres
idea, heads of departments, agents in
foreign countries, military officers above
the grade of Brigadier General, naval of
ficers above the grade of Captain, and
Governors of States; ; 2d—all who were
guilty of treating otherwise than as law
ful prisoners of war those captured during
the war; 3d—all persons in civil, milita
ry or naval confinement, or legally held
to bail for acts committed in behalf of the
rebellion, and all persons who were 'xi
any way engaged directly or indirectly
in the , assassination of President Lin
coin. With these few exceptions the
Proclamation, so far as Presidential agen
cy can accomplish it, restores to citizen
ship and pOwer:all the blood.atained unre
pentant traitors, who, during the rebel
lion, did their best to destroy the RePub
lie, and now are doing 'their best to fo
ment difficulties in the South and impede
the work of reconstruction. The ani
mus of President Johnson, in this new
movement, may be gathered from the
editorials of his official organ, the Na
tional Intelligencer, which takes the
ground that the Proclamation invests
all those pardoned traitors with full.
rights of citizenship, including that of
suffrage in the coming elections in the
South—by which the loyal Unionists
would be overborne, and the Southern
States be reconstructed in the interests
of treason and rebellion. Fortunately,
Congress in its last ezplan atory Recon
struction Act, guarded against this very
contingency, expressly dechhing that
"no person shall at any time, be entitled
to be registered or to vote by reason of
any Executive pardon or amnesty for
any act or thing which,twithout such
pardon of amnesty,woul4squalify hint
from registration or voting" I
This pro Vision effectually check-mates
President Tozetsonr's last move, unless
he has made up his mind deliberately to
override and nullify the legislation of
Congress. He is in the hands of danger
ous advisers, and there is no knowing
where his audacity may lead him—very
likely to impeachment.
IT has long been a matter of surprize
that Berks and Lancaster counties should
be of so decidedly opposite politics. Hon.
JOHN STBOHM of Lancaster, at a recent
meeting, gave his theory as follows :
"He also gave a brief history of the early
settlers .of Berks and . Lancaster counties.
During the revolution, Lancaster county was
settled principally by non-combatant and non
resistant Christians. These refused to fight,
but sympathized with the revolutionists, and,
as they were producers, they were let off on
condition of supplying our armies with pro
visions, &e. A gest portion of the early
settlers of Berks county were Hessians, cap
tured at Red Bank. These people were made
to believe that our government -vere oppres
sing them,and hence, generally arrayed them
selves against it. Lancaster always gave
large Federal, Whig or Republican majori
ties ; while Berke, on the other hand, was al
ways noted for her great Democratic victoria
at the polls."
Tar New York Wor4 says that the
Pennsylvania Democrats are Makiug the
issue upon Radical extraxagance "ivhich
is yearly plunging that State still deeper
into debt."
The World has nit heard that, during
the last year, nearly Two MILLIONS of
our Public ebt have been paid,and that
money is now in 'the Treasury for the re
demption of the War Loans of 1862,1883,
1864, and 1868, which have been calledi
in. Interest on them is to stop Septem
ber 30th, 1867. Democratic achxdnistra
tions created the' huge public debt of
Pennsylvania. Republican administra
tions are paying it. A Democratic ad
ministration imposed the heavy Stite
taxes on Real Estate. A Republican ad
ridnistration was, by good. management,
able to• repeal it.

lently anti-Radical, and talks exactly
like an old liue Democrat. We extract a
few peestaies •
• "I am not ambitious for the notoriety of a

er myself elevated to a poet of honer were
I elected feta seat rte the present Congress;
but emusiderations of the graiest moment to
my own time, and to the' country at large,
impel me to the conviction that the surest
remedy (Or radical evils is for the South to re
tufa colofed representatives, in preference to
strengthening the Radical vote by sending
arty of their white representatives at present
among us. I am sufficiently posted in the
political affairs of this country to know that •
it is utterly impossible for any white man
from the excluded States, who has any
claims lo respectability, intelligence or
statesmanship, to obtain a seat in either
House of Congress. There is nothing more
certain than that there can . be no reconstruc
tion under existing legislation, except on the
ratliot.l basis, and by the entire radicalization
of the &Chem States;'Which, in my humble
judgment, means anarchy, war, and the
early destruction of the colored race on,
this conz4nent. Of course ruin will result to
the white race, and the whole country must.
suffer utiold evils in the sequel of our de
struction. It is, therefore, the duty of every
honest man at the South, black and white, to
look this question squarely in the face, and if
possible avert the impending ruin. It Is not
improbalile that colored-delegates to Congress
will be rejected ; but it is folly to ignore, or
blink the fact, that we now forth a part and
parcel of the political machinery of the gov
ernment; and the correlative right of hold
ing office is an inherent part of the American
system, end must follow, as the night the day,
the right to vote. These are the paramount
attributela of citizenship in a republican gov
ernment, and especially so in America. The
franchise has been conferred upon my race,
either as a matter of right, or for the purpose
of using us as instruments to carry out the
schemes of the Radical Party, and oppressing
the white people of the South. Ido not be
lieve it was bestowed in love, or upon consid
eration of right ; and the means employed to
control our action verifies this conclusion.—
We are expected ; aye, required to consort or
co-operate with three classes' of persons in
carrying out the reconstruction measures, and
in promoting to office individuals who are
tolerated by hilt Radicals themselves only be.
cause they ore capable of doing the dirty
work the less ylle refuse to do. We are not
permitted to heed the counsels of the wise and
good of our own land, either in matters af
fecting our own domestic welfare or the good
of the country at large, but a most nausea
ting feast is prepared for our digestion,
and we are not only affectionately led up
to the high carnival, but menacingly in
structed and impertinently commanded
to drain each cup to the dregs, and to
swallow down all the ingredients of the
Radical cauldron."
This sounds exactly likenn editorial of
the,Philadelphia Age, or Harrisburg Pa
triot.
WE are flippantly told by Democratic
editors, that Congress is an"illegal body.",
If this be•so, our National...debt was not
legally Made, and the bonds are of no
actual value; the existing taxes cannot
be collected 1 the existing pensions can
not be paid ; and the bounties voted to
the soldiers,can not be paid. The Nation
al banks are a swindle, on this theory,
and the stockholders own nothing, in
owning the 'shares. If this be true, all
the legislation of the past six years is
usurpation, and void, forall was made by
a body constituted precisely as the pres
ent Congress Is. What fools these meu
are ! or, are they knaves?
THE Southern Democrats began their
war on the Union, on the theory that
each one of them was equal to five North
erners ; and that, therefore, they would
surely be victorious. The Northern
Democrats are carrying on their war on
the negro, apparently on the theory that
one maim can out-vote five Democrats.—
If this , be not their 1 - ,Ll*lry, why their,
howlabout "Negro Supremacy," when
the proportion is five to one in favor of
the whites ? The Southern \ Democracy
found out that one man foughtabout as
well as another, no matter . where •ku)ra• —
The Northern Democracy ought to know
that one man's vote counts as much , as
another* and no more, no matter where
they were born, or what they are.
ON the first page of to-day's paper, we
give In full the speech of Hon. M 4 Bus-
SELL' MAYBE, of Philadelphia, at the
laying of the Corner Stone of "Orkvios

BALE OF PROPERTY.—We learn that
the farm of-Jacob Fidler, decearo, contaia
-114158 acres, situated' in Ty44;irie townshiri,
waa sold lag week to Brbw
man; of York county, at 54,000 ash,
RED MEN'S PIC NlC,—Cayugas Tribe
of Red men went Thursday pic-uicing at
Spangler's Spring. They , marched out in
regalia,_ and, headed by the Gettysburg Cor
net Band, attracted much attention.
The day w•as very pleasantly vent.
TILE* ZOUAVES paraded on Saturday af
ternoon, in full dress uniform, attracting
much attention, by reason of their soldierly
appearance and excellent mauceuvaring.—
The Compui,y has fine inatexial, and Capt.
Nonsis has few equals as a drill officer.
OFF TER TEA.CII.-011 Monday evening
week, asthe Gettysburg train reached Myers'
switch, two miles beyond Oxford, the pas
eager and baggage cars were run off the
track, by the disarrangement of the switch,
breaking both of them somewhat, though
no person was injured.
SCHOOLS OPENED.—The Common
Schools in this place opened on the 2d 'Mt. I
with a full complement of pupils, who had
been rusticating foi three months. The
Schools will remain open for nine months,
to June Ist, 1868, with a recess of a few days
at Christmas.
sir Pam n a in want of a good farm or
country home should consult our advertis;
ing columns to•day.. Many of the proper
ties offered for sale are very desirable; and
the owners have wisely consulted their own
interests in selecting the columns of our
widely-circulated paper for their insertion.
pe- We must crave the indulgence of our
readers fora few weeks in not giving them
the usual allotment of news and other mat
ter. This is the season for real estate adver
tising, and, in order to accommodate our
advertising friends, we are necessarily oblig
ed to give them the preference. It will pay,
however, to read the advertisements, as they
show the business movements and changes
taking place In the county..
POTATO ROT.—We notice that our ex
changes generally complain of the appear
ance of the Potato Rot. We regret to learn
tbatthe rot has made its appearance in this
county, especially among the early potatoes
—in some ckes the entire crop proving a
failure. The %li talt ; attributed to the unusual
quantity of ra has fallen this season—
whether correctly or not remains to be evi
denced in the gathering of the later crop.
ACCIDENT.—We regret to learn that uu
the 3d inst, Mr. JOHN MUSSELIIAN, son of
JOSEPH MussEtmaN, of llamiltonban tp.,
while driving a horse power threshing ma
chine, accidentally got his foot entangled in
the gearing, and the ankle joint was so bwl
ly crushed as to require amputation. Dr.
H. S. HUBER, of this place, was called in,
who amputated the foot above the ankle, as
sisted by Dr. A. 0. Socrrr, of Fairfield.
ANOTHER ACCIDENT.—On Wednesday
last, an interesting son caged about 6 years.)
Of SAMUEL G. SNEERINGER, Esq., of Me-
Sherryatown, met with a very sad accident..
His father and assistants, engaged in thresh
ing with the machine, were about quitting
at noon, when the child, to get. around the
horses, happened to place his right hand on
the still moving strap. In the twinkling - of
an eye, the poor little fellow was turned
over in the air several times, and the arm
torn from the body, both dropping some
distance apart.
SEVERE STORM,—On Thursday even
ing last a thunder storm—or rather succes
akm of storms—passed over this place, ac
companied by an unusual amount of thun
der and lightning. From 7 o'clock in the
evening until after midnight, the electrical
discharges were almost incessant, with heavy
thundering—one peal following after another
in rapid succession, resembling terrific can
nonading. We learn that the lightning
struck the residence of Mr. JESSE GmEsv,
in Menallen townsh ip, severely shocking
some four or five persons and prostrating
Mr. Amitos: LEAS, who, at the time, had his
arm resting on a stove, along which the elec
tric fluid seems to have passed- Mr. LEAS
was insensible for about art hour and a half,
but revived , under proper treatment—sus
taining no injury beyond a numbness of the
arm and side, which continued tar some
days. On the same night the lightning de
molished six of the telegraph poles on the
Chamberaburg pike, about a mile from IbWEI,
as effectually as though a bomb had been
exploded in each.
THE FAIR GROUNDS.—A day or so ago
we walked round to the Fair Grounds, and
were surprised to see the progress made in
the work. The main building, 40x80 feet,
is now ready for use—also the building for
exhibition of agricultural implements, tick
et offices, &c. A large force of workmen are
engaged on the enclosure and sheds, which
will be mostly finished this week. The in
tention of the managers is to raise the main
building two-stories, and complete it by
plastering, but this will be postponed until
alter the coming Fair. The management
deserve mach credit for the energy and pub
lic spirit manifested in their determination
to make these grounds second to none inthe
Effitte. They are Incurring heavy obligatiois
by reason of the large expenditures necessa
ry to accomplish the end aimed at—relying
• upon the liberality of the friends of the et
terprate .to sustain them. The large build
ing,when conapleted,ean be readily convert
ed into a Hall for public meetings, exhibi
tions, dm, when Ineeded for those porpowas
and will thus be a source of liberal reirenno
to the society. Gas should by all mew , be
introduced into the buildings and grounds,

Elections were held in Vermont and Cali
fornia last week, and in Maine on Monday.
The Republicans of Vermont, as usual,
sweep the field, electing Hon. Joust B. PAGE
Governor, by a large majority in a light vote
—the Democracy being nowhere. The Sen
ate is unanimously Republican and the House
nearly so.

In California, the Republicans foolishly got
into a bitter quarrel of factions, running two
rival candidates for Governor, and dividing
on local tickets—enabling the Democracy to
run in their candidate for Governor, litany
H. Munn., and probably two candidates for
Congress—the Republicans saving the third.
The Legislature will ba Democratic giving
them a 11. S. Senator, instead of COnteiss.—
The election has no practical significant, be
yond evidencing the folly of Republicans per
mitting factious leaders to involve the party
in their personal quarrels. California is good
for 20,000 majority on any national issue.
Maine stands by her colors, and re-elects
Gov. Ciassmanair by a majority of 1&,000.
Both branches of the Legislature overwhelm
ingly Republican. The vote was light. The
liquor question entered into the contest, but
not sufficient to affect the general malt.
The municipal election in Wilmington,
Delaware, was held last week. Joshua S.
Valentine, Republican candidate, was elect-,
ed. Mayor by 270 majority. This is about
the same majority as last year, and was en
tirely unexpected by the Democracy, who
made great efforts, and had high hopes of
eliding their ticket This fault is gratifying
is showing the steadfast adherence to pro
gressive principles prevalent in that loyal and
growing city.

The Republican State Central Committee
met in the city of Pittsburg on Thursday last,

Secretary. A full representatkin from .the dif
ferent counties woe present, and the moat fa
vorable reports fttun all parts of the State
were received. The west especially will in
crease her majorities largely., and the reports
front the eastern po;ntion of the State are equal -
ly favorable. Cons.derable business was trans,
acted and the work of a thorough organization
goes bravely forward.
LIP= motion of the Hon. EDWARD Mc-
Patuisou, of Adams county, the following res
olutions were unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the guileful thanks of the
peopleief this State and nation are due to the
Hon. Edwin M. Stanton for his fidelity to
Liberty, and for the 'field, patriotism, finnnes 8
and ability" wit which he ever discharged
the important and onerous duties of Secretary
of War, and that ire will cordially welcome,
from the action of, the Senate; his restoration
to that high post of responsibility and honor.
Resolved, That Major General Philip U.
Sheridan and Major General Daniel E. Sickles
have endeared themselves to the hearts of all
loyal men by their t:istinguished gallantry and
military services in the recent civil war, and
especially to the people of this Commonwealth,
by their heroism and success in protecting
and defending us from rebel invasion.
Resolved, That;the arbitrary andv indictive
removal by the President of these illustrious
public servants, in this critical juncture of na
tional affairs, and st the dictation of baffled
conspirators, evinces, in our judgment, a
fixed {purpose to nullify the wise and jus
measures adopted; for the restoration of the
Union, and to defy the will of the people ,
constitutionally expressed, is an insult to the
loyal sentiment of the entire nation, and an
offense deserving exemplary punishment.
Resolved, That Gen. U. S. grant, by
his firm and patriotic protests against the re
moval and attempted humiliation of his gal
lant co-laborers, his manifest respect for pub
lic sentiment and the laws of the land: has
our most hearty and cordial thanks, aid by
the highest civic virtues has added Insture to
the matchless greatness of his military fame.
After the adjonntunent of the committee an
invitation was accepted from the Hon. HEN
RY W. WILLIAMS, pur candidate for Supreme
Judge, to pay him:a friendly visit. The Coin
mittee marched in a body to Ifis residence.
where they were gordially welcomed by our
worthy standard bearer, and, after spending
some time in con'ersation, departed highly
gratified with their personal intercourse with
the next Supreme Judge.—Telegraph.
The difficulties at Washington, growing out
of President JOHNSON'S obstinate determination
to defeat the Congressional plan of re-construe
tion, continue. The Democracy, lead by the
Blairs, Jerry Blatt., and other prominent Reb
el sympathizers, have become the President's
daily advisers, mid a strong effort is being
made to drive SEWARD, RANDALL and Wert._
LOUGH out of the Cabinet, as being too con
servative for the bold policy now urged by
these unscrupulous demagogues. It is said the
President hesitates to turn them out, but will
accept their resignations, if tendered. Gen.
Gniyr no longer meets.with the Cabinet, hav
ing made a request that he be relieved from
attending, excepting when military Twitters
are to be considered—not being willing to be
held responsible for the President's vagaries
in political policy This is regarded as sig
nificant of an early retirement from the position
of Secretary of War ad interim. It is said
Gen._,AfcCLETTes, view in Europe, will be his
successor, if willing to identify himself with
BLua, BLACK & Cp. He has been sent for,
and is expected to arrive in October.
The corrOpondence between Gen. GRANT
and Gen. Sicsiits has been published, by
which it appears that Gag. GRANT fully en
dorsed the latter's' administration. SICKLES'
removal, therefore il is a rebuke of the General
Commanding.
The President hits 'been unfortunate in se
lecting successors to *IERILUN and SICKLES.
Gen. GRIFFIN in taking charge of the former de
partment, issued an order, continuing in force
all of SIIERMAN'S regulations. Gen. C.unix,
in taking charge of the Carolinas, issued a
similar order, continuing in force all of Gen.
SICKLES' regulations—incluclinglhe famous or
der No. 10, which Was made the pretext for
SICKLES' removal: The truth is, the Pres
ident will find it difficult to get officers in the
Regular Army, of the requisite grade, willing
to endorse his insane policy.
The President has grown fond of Proclama
timis. Last week he issued one warning "all
persons against obstructing or interfering in
any manner whatsoever with the faithful ex
ecution of the Constitution and the laws."
He has also ordered the Heads of Depart
ment, at Washington, to send an official copy
of this proclamation to all subordinate officers
in the public service. The meaning of this
movement is not exactly understood, but it is
generally understood as foreshadowing a de
termination to assert, his right to interpret the
Re-construction tied, and ignore Gen. GEArr,
who claims the right to revise the acts of the
military commanders,
DRZADFUL CssuALTY.—On Saturday last,
a daughter of Dr. fieldstone, of St. Mary's
I county, Md., aged 11 years, having occasion
to perform some household duty in the kitch
en, caught fire and her clotheS soon became
enveloped in flame. A servant who was pres
ent attempted to extinguish the fire, but with ,
out effect, afid the child in its agony rushed
into the yard' where its•cries soon arrested the
attention of Mrs. Blakistone. Seeing its con
dition, this lady, with the brave and unselfish
instincts of a mother, sought to put the fire
out by enveloping the child with her own
clothing, but finding this of no arail,she sought
the house with a view of obtaining a blanket to
