Eljt 051oht. HUNTINGDON, PA. W. Lewis, Editor and Proprietor Hugh Lindsay, Associate Editors Wednesday morning, Aug. 8, 1866. FOR GOVERNOR, Maj. Gen. John W. Geary, CUMBER LAND COUNTY. DaT"Congress was. in session seven mouths and the majority of the mem bers before they went home voted themselves an extra bounty of $2,000, and the soldiers $5O and . $l.OO instead of $3OO as was first proposed. The members were - quite liboral---toward themselves. - • 1195 r Ex. Governor Wm. P. .Tehnston has heal appointed by the Presidebt, Collector of the reit of Philadelphia. This the radicals will say is another "Copperhead" appointment. Several other appointments were made for Philadelphia, all Union men, but not of Thad. Stevens' kind. Tan Cabinet, with the new appoint ments, stamis'as follows: "Secretary of H. Seward. Secretary of War—E. M. Stanton. Secretary of the Navy—G. Welles. Secretary of the Interior---Orvillo H. Browning. - , Postmaster general—A. W. Randall. illtdrhey General—H. Stansberry. Tho" National Union Convention to be - held'in Philadelphia commencing on. Tuesday next, promises to be the largest 'ConVention ever held in the United Stato.i: It will boa curiosity it more--and may result in gond: e,very good Union man will rejoice. The only. men in this State'opposed to 'it are , such men as Stevens, Forney & Co., rind their abe• dient followers. , They see the hand writing en the 'wall. They see that the Union party as.it existed during the war, will not be moulded to suit their. radical and revolutionary purposes. How THE KADICALS LOVE "TITE BOYS /1:1 BLun."=llow muoh honesty there is in the constant professions of affec tion fOr the soldiers of the Union. army, which make so much of the stock in trade of Radical journals and- orators, may be seMl'in the following-item from the New York Tribune: . . , There is 'yet some hope that the Senate will refuse to Lass the bill for the. equalization. of Mounties, as the House insists upon its disagreements; and the matter is referred to a commit tee. of conference. This bill is foolhar dy; it acids a vast expense to the na tion, and does little good to individu als. • -. DON'T. BE ALARMED.—SoIve of the Republicans and some of the radical "Democrats" seem to think that no good can comp . out of the 14th of Au gust Philadelphia Convention. Result as it may we cannot see what harm it can do. If. the Convention blows up in a row the people will be more satis fied than ever that they cannot look to political conventions for relief. If it should odnduet its business harmoni ously, and condescend to do something to bring.aboat a bettor feeling all over the Iroion, we cannot see why all good and true men should not rejoide at such a result." Za•The difficulty in the Union party of the country, was commenced during the war :by Thad. Stevens and others of his school of politicians. President L. - incoln'was denounced . by them, and they. even Went so fir as to attempt to defeat his re-nomination. Failing in this they continued their persecution of him until his death. As soon as An drew Jrohnson occupied the Presiden tial. 'chair, and befbre it was known that he would differ with Congress as to the pp/icy to be adopted by the Union party for the , restoration of the rebel States, Stevens- commenced to abuse him in his speeches made in the Holise. The truth is clear that Ste vens is not a more bitter enemy of President Johnson'. than he was of President Lincoln, but during the war ho could not rally his friends .'is readily. as he has sine() the close of the rebel lion. , Nothing short of negro suffrage and 'negro equality will satisfy Stevens & Go., arid this or revolution he will have if.perinitted to control the Union SEEI , The following have been .fixed as the rates for the Atlantic Telegraph from any station in America, to any in Great Eritain : For twenty words or loss, including nddress of sender and receiver, twenty .Pounds in, gold ; every. additional ;word .not exceeding five letters, .twerity, shillings sterling per word.

The letters in all words after the first twenty, will be counted and divided by five. Each five or fraction. al remainder will be charged ts a word. Messages in cypher will be charged doable the foregoing rates.; . . Huntingdon has at lust got a money order post office. By this.system,mon, ay can be sent from one order office to another without danger of loss. The rates of commission aro : On orders not exceeding $2O, ten cents; over $2O and not exceeding $5O, twenty ff .- ye cents; no single order issued for more than fifty dollars ; persons do siring to remit larger sums must ob tain additional money orders.: r&the , National UnimMunCention commences next, Tuesday in Philadel- phia. It promises to be well attended. Another "Traitor," The .I.lTorth American, edited by Hen. Morton McMichael, Mayor of Philadel phia, is not all' the radicals would wish it to be. We give an extract or two from its editorial columns of last Thursday Our country has been so unaccus tomed to such burdens as this vast debt,that all who contemplate as we do with uneasiness the complicated and confused mass of taxes now inflicted , upon us as a Consequence of that debt, must be:rejoiced to find-this .policy : of reduction the settled determination of the government. No doubt hereaf ter each successive administration will be more or less judged of by the extent of its labors in this direction, and President Johnson has made a very good' beginning by what has been accomplished under his direction since his accession to the Presidency. • President Johnson has preferred the direct and .obvious plan of retrench ment and immediate reduction, for the purpose of affording present relief from the more onerous burdens'oftaXation. We give 'hint Credit for this policy rather:than any one else, bedause it was . a, corollary of his whole past po litical life. His speeches were always replete with advocacy °flow taxation; cheap government, and simpliCity of administrative' forms. Ills - prompt reorganization of - the conquered StateS on the return of peace, and disbandment of our vast armies and swarms of war offi cials, undoubtedly , saved the nation hundreds of millions of dollars ; and, as wo approved of ;his action then, we have since soon no reason • to change our views." Mr. McMichael then turns hia aten. lion to the radicals in Congross,saying they were bewildered amidst their own Schemes of public ,plunder; and adds: For this reason it is essential that 010 national government should seri ously address itself, as the administra tion of President Johnson has been do ing, to the.-work of discharging the debt; and. it is also, essential that Con. gross should do as little an possible to ward increasing our expenditures. What we desire is, that tho Presi dent should' be stregthened in his of to limit expenditures and, reduce the public debt: - Congressional extrav agance has long been proverbial, and One session seems no worse than an other in that respect.' But if, while. widely differing - from him in other re spects, the confidence of the people was' shown to be retained . by the Presi dent in . that portion.of 1)16 policy . which seeksretrenchment of expenses and reduction of debt, that sentiment could not fail to react upon Congress and arrest the schemes of plunder that run riot at every session. Nothing, it seems to us, can be more clear, more emphatic, and more reason able than this. TILE NEW ORLEANS RIOT.—We give in another coldmn a condensed account of the political riot in New Orleans, which we fear will be followed up with similar results in ether places, if radi cals persist in their attempt to force upon the people their "policy." We are not surprised that "free speech" is interfered with, when the whole white population of a State is insulted by the speaker. Wo have read in the Phila delphia Press the speech of Gov.'llahn, delivered .at the mass meeting of radi. cals and five thousand negroes in New Orleans on-the 30th ult. The meeting was hold for the purpose of. recom mending the re-assembling of the State Convention of '64. We give but a few lines of Mr. Hahn's speech and ask our readers how they would like to listen to such stuff. • . Gov. Hahn said : "No Man . .can justly claim to be a Union man unless ho favors universal suffrage." Addressing the negroes he "The question is whether veil will he allowed to hold office as White men do; I say you are entitled to the right. * :* -It is -to you that the loyal men of the South must look, and when you separate to-night make up your minds . from this day forward, you are as good as'any White man in the State. [Great cheering."] Can any man entertaining such sen timents be elected to office from tiny county in this State? Yet such senti ments are endorsed by the radical leaders in every State in the Union. Is it any wonder, that the once pow erful Union party is falling to pieces. The Atlantic Cable.

(Signed) ANDREW JORNSON. A mass Union Convention will be held in Reading on Wedneseay, Aug. ust 22d. It will be a grand affair as all the adjoinin ! ;. counties will "pitch in." The Boys ln Blue Speak. The publication of the following handsome endorsement of our humblo self has been requested and we comply. To 'Valiant Lewis, Esq, Editor of the Globe : We feel that the soldiers of Hunt ingdon county owe you a debt of grat itude for your devotion to them and the cause of tho . oonntry through the late war. In tho darkest hours of the rebellion your ratriotislu never waver ed, and while we wore away from home, fighting treason in front of an armed foo; you stood faithful to us and the national cause with a courage that know no fear, Disregarding former Party ties and organizations, you gave your Means mid your paper to the support of the war and the bravo men who were per iling their : lives for the integrity of the Union.. • Knowing and feeling this, it is with deep regret:that We have read the cent proceedings of what is called the "Geary League" of this county. Wo aro sorry that a feW of our soldiers, who have escaped rebel bullets, are now in the hands of ti . clique of politi cians, who . know no motivo higher than their interost, and wheso patriot ism oxtends only to the "loaves and fishes." In the desperate effort of these worn out political tricksters to control conventions . and secure nomi• nations, they' are willing to abuse and traduce the. men who ,have remained mostfaitliful to the soldier during the war, and While professing groat lovo for "the boys in blue," they oppose ev ery effort to reward worthy soldiers with civil office. We cannot forget that the three crippled soldiers now holding positions of honor and profit in this county, were: aftnominated over the most determined opposition of the very clique that is now using the Gea ry League to slander you. - You stoodfor, the soldiers against the politician, and the geherons heart of the people went With • you. No thank you for what you have done for the soldier, and we trust that you will again , be ablo to rout the ,miserable faction that are atteMpting to use the - heroes of the war for their selfish and heartless purpose. We assure you-that the -work of the political tricksters in trying, to have the Geary League denounce you is an outrage upon the true soldiers.of Hun tingdon county, and will be, as it-de serves to be, overwhelmingly rebuked by them.

Lewis :—Dear fool that I would not be doing right if I would not applaud you for your patriotic course which you havo.dared. to brave, notwithstanding the so-called Soldiers' League reading you out of tho great Union party, of which they want to make us poor privates boliovo they aro the head and shoulder. lam sorry to hear that those soldiers who constituto the "boys in blue" of the_ancient bor ough should so far forgot who was the true soldiers' friend all through the late rebellion, or who has boon the true and tried friend of the soldier last fall in getting a whole soldiers ticket nominated and elected. I would beg those worthies to pause for ono mo ment, and I think that after taking a sober second thought they will have to acknowledge that William Lewis has been the soldiers fast friend and is yet. lam very sorry that the "boys in blue" have fallen into the hands of a few political hucksters, but I am also glad to toll you that they do not speak the sentiment of the groat majority of the "boys in blue" but merely those eleven controled by those broken down politicians, who want to use the sol diers as a cloak for their own bad de signs. Now, if the boys in blue, through the instigation of those poor, misera ble, would-be leaders of the great Uni on party, read all out of the party who do not, see fit to endorse the course of Thad Stevens fi Co., I fear that they will find out when too late that they have read oat of the party the greater number of soldtms of Huntingdon Co. For fear somebody may think I too ant a Copperhead I will have to define my position. I am a Johnson-Geary Union man. I always acted with and voted with the great Union Party, and would no more touch a Copper head ticket than a snake of the same name.

Thirty porous Killed and a large number Wounded, The public are familiar with the oh jects and Proceedings of the State con vention of Louisiana, which assembled in New Orleans on the 6th of April, 1864, ostensibly for the. purpose of re vising and amending the constitution of the State, and after remaining- in session two and - a half months, almost a new constitution was produced which was submitted to the people and adop ted by the popular voice. An attempt was, made during the present month by some of the radical members to revive the dead conven tion, as it is called, for the purpose of ratifying the amendment to the, Con stitution of the United States, and the President, Mr. R ii. Duren, was re quested to issue a proclaination reeon yoking the body. When the conven— tion was first called only a portion of the State was' within the Union lines, and therefore a great number of the parishes were unrepresented. Mr. Durell taking the ground that when the convention, on the 23c1 of June, 1864, adjourned, it ceased to have any legal existence and its members were out of office; refused to comply with the demands of the radicals. A meet ing .was then called, and a President protein. appointed, as before stated, who issued a proclamation reconvo- Mug the dead- convention. Governor Wells was solicited to issue Writs - ordering elections to till the vacancies in the restored parishes, which ho consented to do, but fixed the day of election on thu 3d of Sep tember next. There were twenty-one unrepresented pariShes in 1801, which were entitled to fifty-two representa tives. Tho radicals, however, were determined to assemble on Monday last ; but it is stated it vas their inten tion to adjourn until some day subse quent to the ono appointed for the holding of the elections. There were a number of the members of the convention of 1864 who coinci ded in the views taken by tho Presi,- dent, and refused to meet with the radicals: • Ono, Mr J. B. Bromley, thought that no good could be accom plished by reassembling, and ho ,is re ported to have Said that he wont to New Orleans with General Bittler to fight against the rebels, and that he, bad no idea how of joining in an in sane and revolutionary movement. Another, Judge Abell, of New Orleans, hot only refused to join the so-called conspirators, but in his judicial capaci ty charged the grand jury to the effect that the officer of State who endeavor od to change the Goverpmont through the action of the members of that con vention subjected hiniself to a prose cutioni for perjury. Ho branded its members as apolitical - apostates and military deserters ; the meanest and basest of mankind, venal, cowardly, and treacherous." The President'pro tem. (Mr. R. It Howell) of the reassembled convention it is stated, had been on a visit to Wash ington, and had received instructions from radical members of Congress. Immediately upon his return to New Orleans a call was issued for a meeting of tho citizens who wore in favor of universal suffrage, of the reconstruc tion policy Of Congress, and of amend ing the constitution of the State to give equal rights to all without dis- tinction of color. This meeting was held on Friday night last, and contrib uted to add to the excitement which was then prevailing. The causes which created the dis graceful riot on Monday last are thus briefly set forth. Bad and horrifying as it was, the radical journals of this city were not content with the facts as they came over the wires, but greatly exaggerated the statements., One of them announced that two hundred ne groes had been killed, and that the hall where the convention was held was literally flooded with the blood of Uni on men, while the simple fact was that only two of the members had been seriously WoUnded, One of whom has since died. Another paper stated that dead negroas were lying- about the streets; thabfew were arrested, as they, were being rapidly killed. Another Aaaount [From the Sew• Yolk Tim.] WASHINGTON, July-31.—=1. NeW Or loans correspondent furnishes, .imder date of July 30, the following detailed and connected account of the outbreak in that city. The convention met at. 12 o'clock, twenty-six .members being present, Judge R. K..Tiowell,.siuce misiug, in the chair. R. King Butler, MO missing, moved an adjournment, of an hoUri• during which time the sergeant-at-firths was directed to compel the ' attendance of absentees. The hall was densely crow ded with freedmen and . Whites, the former having armed themselves ex tensively since their Friday's demon, strations. Just before the adjourn ment a procession containing about a hundred freedmen, carrying a'United States flari and marching the streets '.kith martial mdSie, - arrived at the in stitute; having had'a slight disturbance on Canal street. At this juncture the merchants all over the city, fearing the coining riot, closed their Stores. When the proces sion entered the building a squad of po• lice followed and attempted to Make arrests. A scene of the wildest confu sion followed. Pistols wore fired, clubs and canes were mud, and brick bats how in every direction. The policemoii-Claim that they were merely attempting to arrest the Canal-street rioters above mentioned; but certain it is that they mounted the platform, where a small body of the members yet remained, and one of them presented a pistol upon their using offensive lan gauge. The.policomen wore finally driven out of the funding, leaving inside Gov. Hahn, Judge . llowell, Mr. De Costio, and other gentlemen, with Clark, at tached to the State government, be sides about fifty freedmen. Fortunate ly Gov. Wells had just left the build ing for the purpose of consulting with General Baird aboutcalling out troops, General Sheridan being out of town. Up to this time ohe police oilicer had been mortally wounded, one Severely, others were slightly hurt with clubs and pistol-shots. Police reinforcements soon appeared in Canal street, and the crowd of rioters accompanying the po lice approached the institute and com menced throwing atones through the windows and firing pistols at any one they cou!d see inside the building. At the same time a detachment of police tittacked a crowd of freedmen on Com -111017 street, and after sharp firing and Wounding several blacks, they drove them away. This gave the police and the mob which accompanied them full control Of Dryades'street. Several attempts were made by the police to enter the building, but they were repulsed: The ammunition of the men in the institute seemed to give out about this time, as they did not fire any more. They attempted to escape through the rear of the institute into Bayonne street; but were met and either arrested or shot down. Mr. Dostio, who had the reputation of being thOmost violont-liogro suffrage man in the South, and who certainly was the most violent speaker on Fri day last, was killed while attempting to get away.. I am told that a police man shot him in the hack, and that af ter 11(0'611 a crowd jumped on him and cut hiM horribly with knives. The . riot commenced at fifteen min utes after twelve o'clock, and ended at halt past three. At quarter before three the military, under Gen. Baird, appeared on Canal street, and finally took possession,of the whole city. NEw Oar.EANs.--.-Major General O. 0. Howard: The riot has been 14uppres od.. I have declared martial law in the city. About !bay persons have. been killed and a large number wounded, nearly all being friendly to the conven tion. A. BAHIA Bla:Vet Maj.
