61ntit. HUNTINGDON, PA. W. Lewis, Editor and Proprietor Hugh Lindsay, Associate Editor. - - Wednesday morning, Aug. 1, 1866. FOR GOVERNOR, Maj. Gen. John N. Geary, OE CUMBERLAND COUNTY "What the Republican Party De mand."—Harrisburg Telegraph. "What the Democratic Party De man d ."—Harrisburg Telegraph. Wo notice of late that many of the radical Republican papers of the State, speak of the two political parties of the State as "the Republican party" and "the Democratic party." The Journal & American, also radical, sometimes condescends to style the Union organ ization the "Union Republican Party," but most generally speaks of it as the "Republican Party." We are at a loss to see the object the radicals have in view in claiming the . Union Party or ganization as a , :llepublican Party," unless it is for the purpose of disorgan izing, as far as possible, the Union Party., We know of no such national organization as the "Republican Par ty." We know of no such State or ganization as the "Republican Party." Neither do we know of any "Republi can Party" organization in this coun ty. The National Convention wiped out the idea of a &Republican National organizations—and we have not heard of a “Republican State ..Convention'' being hold in this State since the war commenced. And to come nearer home—when was there a "Republican County Convention" held? baring the war every man, Democrat, Aiueriean and Republican,who supported the Ad ministration in good faith was a Union man and was a recognized member of a Union organization—a Union Party." Are all Union Democrats,—and all other Union men who can not endorse the radical measures of radical Repub. licans, to understand, now, that the conduct of the radicals in claiming the Union Party as a "Republican Party" —means a repudiation by them of the "Union Party"---a repudiation of the Union Party organization ? If such is the object of the radicals and their organ in this county; we, speaking for ourself and other Uui3u Democrats and other Union men, invite the radi cals to the issue. If the radicals of this county desire to get rid 'of what sounds unpleasant in their ears—and is unpleasant to their sight—the "Union. Party"—they will have an opportuni ty to change the name of the organiza tion when the Delegate Convention of the "Union Party" meets in this place the second week in August. And speaking for ourself, we desire that Convention to select its colors and be manly onough to stand by them. No good can result from the practice of deception. If a Union Party is to ex ist during the present campaign, it must exist in spirit and in action, and not in name only. If the radical dele gates tolthat Convention should desire a dissointion of partnership—a disso lution of the Union Party—the with drawal or expulsion of the Union Dem ocrats and conservative Republicans— all that will be necessary to accom plish such a purpose will be the adop tion of a resolution . SaYing so in plain words; and we ask the voters of the Union Party of the county to attend the delegate elections and make their sentiments known in the selection-of delegates. We shall be satisfied with the action of the delegates, no matter what their decision may be on the question as we present it. Union con servative men have no idea of remain ing in an organization as mere hewers of wood and drawers of water. CURTIN OR CAMERON. Tho most important issue before the Union County Convention to be held in this place on Tuesday the 14th of August, will be the nomination of eith er a Curtin or a Cameron man for the Legislature. A U. S. Senator will be elected by the next Legislature, and the WO most prominent men for that posi tion are Gov. Curtin. and Simon Cam eron. If the friends of -Andrew G. Curtin desire to see him successful over Mr. Cameron, they will not fail to attend the township delegate elec tions and elect men as delegates who will vote in Convention for no other than an' open and avowed friend of Curtin. United States Senator is an important position—and delegates must not forget that they are voting to fill that office when they make their choice for the Legislature. If the wkl pws and the, orphans of the State could have the selection of the man to occu py a seat ip the United States Senate, that man would be Andrew G. Curtin. "Bnt, the soldiers and their friends who have votes, know Governor Curtin and they will not forget or desert him. Lot the issue -bs3 made in the selection of delegateS, at every election district in the county on Saturday the 11th of kugust. &CCM OF THE ATLANTIC CABLE. - The Atlantic Cable has been success fully laid.

"PROSCitIPTION."—Undor this head the last Journal (I'7 American makes an ungentlemanly and unjustifiable attack upon the political character of J. Sew ell Stewart, U. S. Revenue AsSessor of this Congressional District. The offi ces of Assessor, Collector, etc;, etc., have been in existence for four or five years—they aro a Tart of a policy a• dopted by an Administration we have given a support, quite as steadily and as honestly, and with as good effect as the Journal (6 American dare claim to have given it—and until very lately the Journal & American has been re ceiving all th 6 .printing iiatronaffe at the disposal of the gentlemen occupy• ing the offices. And now, because Mr. Stewart sees proper to do us justice by giving us a share of his patronage we have for years been entitled to, that paper denounces him as a traitor to his party, a hireling lickspittle, a coward, etc. The Journal & American editors should remember that we have at least equal claims with them to the patron age of all offices created since the com mencement of the rebellion, and we do not think their abuse of DL. Stewart for giving us eight or ten dollars worth of printing will pay them for their trouble. The editors connected with the Jour nal & American during the Vast five years have been well cared fbr by the Union party. One, Robert McDivitt, has held the office of County Superin tendent for two terms. Another, John Nash, held the office of Co. Treasurer for two years, and as one of his bail we may yet be "stuck." S. G. Whit taker held the office of Assistant Asses sor from the time it was created, and continues to hold it. We assisted each ono of these editors to the offices held by them, not asking for or receiving any favors from them or the Union party, as a reward for our friendly of ferings. If the Journal & American editors think they have not been suf. ciently rewarded for their labors, the people will think they value their ser vices considerably above par. Poor Devil ! what a miserable crea ture Robert McDivitt must be. We would not feel as ho certainly does, for all the wealth of this world. Re must feel miserable or he could not write the way ho does. Because Stewart did not give him a job of printing, the profits of which would be about three dollars, ho issues an ap peal of a column in length to the pub lic—the following are a few specimen lines : "Think of it, parents, whose only earthly stay has been given to save the nation, and whose tremulous arms can never again lean for support on the son of your old age; whore loved ones have fallen beneath the hand of trai tors; or died amid the sickening hor rors of Southern prison pens; WE ARE PROSCRIBED. _Horrible ! Who can think of the out rage committed by Mr. Stewart, with out shedding teams sufficient to drive a saw mill. Sewell, you should have known that to deny Robert a dollar, you would keep from him that which is his God. We hope the Orphan chil dren of Cassville will contribute 611E112 client to cover Robert's loss. How hap py ho would be could he know that his stirring appeal had touched the hearts of the orphans. We feel just now like contributing the whole amount our self, but in case we should, others would bo denied a like pleasure, or Robert would got more than he lost, so we have concluded to subscribe 2 1 1 cents, conditional that the balance'is made up. by those ho appealed to. Those who have tears to shed, shod then now for Robert, and do not forget the coppers. TuE 14TH AUGUST CONVENTION.- We have hoard men object to taking part in "the Union National Conven tion'-' to be held in Philadelphia on the 14th of August, on the ground that such action might bind them to sup port any policy or platform the major ity might adopt. No man will enter that Convention with any such under standing—every delegate will be freo either to endorse or reject a platform —to approve or disapprove the action of the Convention. A pledge binding the delegates to submit to the decree of the majority will not be given by any man in or out of the Convention. We look upon that Convention as we would upon a town meeting called for the purpose of devising ways and means to save the town from destruc tion. If good, wise and influential men will not make an effort to restore national unity, fraternity and harmo ny, our country will soon be in a de plorable condition. We all remember that a few years ago, all men, without respect to party associations, were called upon to rally as one man, to save the country, and now, just now, it is just as important to rally in the same spirit as then. The enemies of ptace and harmony, wherever found, must be put down; and we caro not whore found—to what party they may belong—we shall op pose their election or selection to any public position. "The admission of Tennessee is all that our loyal Senators and Represen tatives sought to secure."—Harrisburg Telegraph. If you mean the majority of both Houses, then why was not Tennessee admitted six mouths' ago. Everybody knows that President Johnson has from the eommencemet of the session urged her adMission, and because he favored her admission and the majority in both houses opposed it, the present difficulty in the Union pa•;ty was orig., lusted: AEndoning theii Platfohu. Wu make the following extract, from the proceedings of the House of Representatives of Wednesday lust: • The speaker presented a letter front the sergeant at arms, submitting the question as to the time to which the compem , utiiin of the Tennessee members should date back, and stated that ns it embodied a new question he would refer it to the House. Mr. Stevens remarked that be did not think there was any difficulty idiunt it. Those gentlemen wore members from the day of their election, as it finally turned out. (Laughter.) TN eyed that they be paid mileage and compensation from the 4th of March, 1865, the beginning of the present Congress. Mr. Dawes expressed the same opinion, and said there was precedent for. it id the case of the Louisiana members in the thircpserenth Congress. Mr. Stevens' motion was agreed to. With a burst of laughter it is admit ted that these gentlemen have been members since the day of their elec tion, as it finally turned out. What was it that turned out to miraculously con• rut the gentlemen from Tennessee in to members of Congress ? What was the grand discovery which opened the eyes of the Radical members of that body and enabled them to see what they have so long denied, and for maintaining which they have so shame lessly reviled the President ? It is not pretended that they had official evi dence that:the State of Tennessee bad adopted the amendment to the Consti tution, and they knew that the pream• blo to the resolution asserting it was a falsehood. They have with a laugh abandoned everything for which they have contended and have achnoWledged that the southern States are entitled to representation, and have been so entitled "during the whole time of their malicious war fare upon President Johnson. Can it be that in enlightened Amer ica there can be found grown up men stupid enough to be led by the nose by these shameless tricksters, after they have openly confessed the fraud which they have so long labored to impose upon the people ? The Pay of Congressman and our Soldiers. Congress adjourned on Saturday last, but not before the members voted to add two thousand dollars a year to their pay. And this dono at a time too when taxer aro high, and members hesitato to. vote soldiers a reasonable bounty. The following we clip from the pro ceedings of the House of Saturday: Mr. Banks rose and presented the Confer ence report on the Civil bill, which was there upon read by the Clerk. It retains the pro vision for the increase of the compensation of members and Senators, with an additional amendment fixing the pay of the Speaker at SSOOO per annum. • In relation to bonnty, the committee reports an additional seetion, enacting that every sol dier who enlisted after the 10th of April, 1861, fur a period afoot less than three years, and who,after having served his time of enlist ment has been honorably discharged, and who has.rtcei.ved or is entitled to receive from the United States under the existing laws a bounty of 5100 and no more; and every such soldier honorably discharged on account of wounds, and the widow, minor children, or parents of such soldiers who died in the service or from disease or wounds con tracted in the service in the line of duty,shall be paid the additional bounty of one hun dred dollars, The soldier who enlisted fur two yertrs,and mho is entitled to a Government bounty of fif ty dollars under the existing laws, is to get under the like conditions, an additional boun ty of $5O. TENNESSEE Message of President Johnson Signing the Resolution 'Restoring Tennessee to .her Former Rights and Privileges.--He Confesses his Dislike to the Doeument. Wash moroN, July 24.—The Presi dent this afternoon transmitted the an nexed message, namely To the House of Representatives : The following joint resolution, re storing Tennessee to her relations to the Union, was last evening presented for my approval : "Whereas, In the year,lBol the gov ernment of the State of Tennessee was seized upon and taken possession of by persons in hostility to the United States, and the inhabitants of said State, in pursuance of an act of Con gress, were declared to be in a state of insurrection against the TJnited States: And whereas, the said State govern• ment can only be restored to its former political relations in the Union by the consent of the law making - power of the United States: And whereas, the people of the said State did, on the 22d day of February, 1865, by a large popular vote, adopt and ratify- a con stitution of government whereby sla very was abolished and all ordinances and laws of secession and debts con tracted under the same were declared void: And whereas, a State govern ment has been organized under the said constitution, which has ratified the amendment to the Constitution of 'the United States abolishing slavery, also the amendment proposed by the thirty.ninth Congress, and has clone other acts proclaiming and denoting loyalty; therefore, be it "Resolved by the Senate and liousewf Representatives of the United States of America, "in Congress assembled, That the State of Tennessee is hereby 're stored to her former proper practical relations to the 'Union, and is again entitled to be represented by Senators and Representatives in Congress." The preamble simply consists of statements, some of which are assumed ; while the resolutions is merely a dec laration of opinion it comprises no legislation, nor noes it confer any pow er which is binding upon the respec tive Houses, the Executive or the States. It does not admit to their seats in Congress the Senators and Representatives from the State of Tennessee ; for notwithstanding the passage of the resolution, each Rouse, in the exercise of the constitutional right to judge for itself of the election, returns and qualification of its mom ,bers, may at its discretion admit or continue to exclude them. If 'a joint resolution of this character were nec essary and binding as a condition pre cedent to the admission of members of Congress, it would happen, in the event of a veto by the Executive, that Senators and Representatives could only be admitted to the halls of legis lation by a two-thirds vote of each of the two Houses. Among other reasons recited in tho preamble for the declarations contained in the resolution, is the ratification, by the State government of Tennessee, of the aniendment to the Constitution of the United States abolishing slavery, and also the amendment proposed by the Thirty-ninth Congress. If, as is also' declared in the preamble, the said State government can only be restored to its former• political relations in the Union by the consent of the law ma king power of the United States, it would really seem to follow that the joint resolution, which at this late day has received the sanction of Congress, Should have been passed, approved, and placed on the statute books before any amendment to the Constitution was submitted to the Legislature of Tenn essee for ratification. Otherwise, the inference is plainly deducible that while, in 'the opinion of Congress, the people of a State may be too strongly disloyal to be entitled to representa tion, they may, nevertheless, during the suspension of their former practi cal relations to the Union, have an equally potent voice with 'other and loyal States in proposition to amend the Constitution, upon which so essen tially 'depends the stability, prosperity, and very existence of the Union. A brief reference to my annual mes sage of the 4th of December last will show the steps taken by the Executive for• the restoration to their constitu tional relations to the Union of the States that had been affected by the rebellion. Upon the cessation of ac• tive hostilities provisional governors wore appointed, conventions called, ' governors elected by the people, Leg islatures assembled, and Senators and Representatives chosen to time Con ' gross of the United States. At the same time the courts of - the United States were re-opened, the blockade removed, the custom-houses re established, the postal operations resumed. 'rho amendment to the Constitution, abolishing slavery 11)r -ever within the limits of the country, was also submitted to the States, and they were thus invited to, and did, participate iti'kratification, thus exer cising the higqest functiOns pertaining to a State: In addition, nearly all of these States,tltrough their conventions and Legislatures, had adopted and rat ified the amendment• to the Constitu tion, whereby slavery was abolished, and all ordinances and laws of seces sion, and debts: contracted under the mule, wore declared void. So far, then, the political existence of the States arqd their relations-to the Federal Governinent had been fully and completely recognized and ac knowledged by the Executive Depart merit of the Government; and the completion of the work of restoration, which had progressed so favorably, was submitted to Congress, upon which devolved all questions pertaining to the admission to their seats of the Sen• ators and Repr6sentatives chosen from the States whose people had engaged in the rebellion. All these steps had heen taken when, on the 4th day of December, 1865, the Thirty-ninth Congress assembled. Nearly eight- months have elapsed since that time, and no other plan of restoration having been proposed by Congress for the measures instituted by the Executive, it is now declared iu the joint resolution submitted for my approval, that the State of Tenn essee is hereby restored to her former practical relations to the Union, and is again entitled to be represented by Senators and Representatives in Con gress. Thus, after it lapse of nearly eight months, :Congress proposes to pave the way tO'the admission to rep resentation of one of the eleven States whose peophil arrayed themselves in rebellion against the constitutional au thority of the, Federa l. Government. Earnestly desiring to' relieve every cause of urdler delay, whether real or imaginary on the part of Congress, to the admission to seats of loyal Senators and Representatives from the State of Tennessee, I have, notwithstanding the anomalous character of this pro ceeding,affixed my signature to the res olution. My approval s however, is not to be construed as an acknowledge ment of the right of Congress to pass laws preliminary to the admission of duly qualified Representatives from any of the States, Neither is it to be con sidered as committing me to all the statements made in the preamble, some of which are in my opinion with out foundation in fact, 'especially tho assertion that the State of Tonnes See has ratified the - amendment to the Constitution of the United States pro posed by the Thirty-ninth Congress. No official notice of such ratification has been received by the Executive, or filed in 7..thaWepartment of State; on the contrary, unofficial information from most reliable sources induces the belief that the amendment has not yet. been constitutionally sanctioned by the Legislature ofTennessee. The right of each House under the Constitution, to judge of the election returns and qualifications of its own members is undoubted, and my approval or disap proval of the resolution could not in the slightest degree increase or dimin ish the authority in this respect, con fbrred upon the two branches of Con gress. In conclusion I cannot too earnestly repeat my recommendation fbr the ad mission of Tennessee and all other States to a fair and equal participation in national legislation, when they pre sent themselves in the persons of loyal Senators and Representatives, who can comply with all the requirements of the Constitution and the laws. By this means, harmony and reconciliation will be effected, the practical relations of all the Stat6S to the Federal Govern ment reestablished, and the work of restoration inaugurated upon the ter mination of the war successfully com pleted.
