A friend writes us that he believes

"company would be if we should be in
company with a man who uttered the
following sentiments before the war:

in `the :Philadelphia Radical Convex

What Wharton Did Say.
. - We ask a careful perusal of the fol
lowing affidavit by Mr. Hoffman, a
gentleman; whose word will not be
questionbd by any person acquainted
With,hini: `• Mr. • Hoffman is connected
with tili'large tannery at Mt. Union:

I, Q, P. Hoffman, of Mount Union,
Iluntiatdon_ county, Pa., being sol-
Qinnlk,sworn, do depose and say, that
on Thursdayi.the 30th day of August
last, I entered the' bitrdware store of
- Wharton & Maguire,-in .the borough
:Ornimtingdon, and there mot Henry
B.Vharton; the Refiublican candidate
for Assembly. I shook hands with
/dm; and then loo_ asked me how poli
tics were about Mount Union. He
said that tho• Monitor had charged him
with having made a speech in the Con
vention, in which he declared that ho
hated-the Copperheads and Johnson
men worse than the devil. He said
that he did not use the word "Copper
head," but that he declared that he did
hate. Johnson _men and those who sup
ported his policy worse than he hated the

What We Think.
think'that the- men who aided
hatching the rebellion as guilty of
treason as those who took up arms
against the government. Are not all
:the "fanatics," including Fred Doug

Thad Stevens, working in harmony
and at the head of theltepublican party?
Are they any better than the rebels r
The Cat Out of the Bag.
A meeting was held in the Court
House on Tuesday evening last to hear
J. Sewell Stewart, Esq., define his pos
sition. It was called at his request
and for him only. The room was well
filled by men of all parties, and Mr.
Stewart made an intelligent and inter
esting speech, endorsing the President
in his demands for the immediate ad
mission to Congress of loyal Representa
tives from Um Southern States with
out requiring the adoption of the con
ditions of the amendment to the Con
stitution. Ho also declared himself
in favor of nogro suffrage in the States
to be adopted by a State as a State,
and by the people of the State affected
by it, but was opposed to the forcing
it upon a State through any branch
of the general government.
But "the laugh came in" after Mr.
Stewart had spoken some time. When
he declared in favor of negro suffrage
the Republicans as one man clapped
their hands and stamped their foot,
the President of the Soldiers'
League leading off in the demonstra
tion of joy. S. T. Brown, Esq., made
a few remarks and declared himself
opposed:to negro suffrage, the Republi
cans receiving the announcement with
perfect silence. This proceeding, of re
ceiving with favor the declaration of
Mr. Stewart, and with disfavor the de
claration of Mr. Brown, let the cat out
of the bag, and told plainly that negro
suffrage was an issue with the Repub-
licans, and that the party or at least a
large majority of it, were in - favor of
negro suffrage, and intend that the re
sult of the election shall count either
in its favor or against it. Some three
or four Republicans who couldn't swal
low the dose left the room iu disgust
determined to vote in Opposition to the
party favoring negro suffrage. All
opposed to negro suffrage and desire
to vote their, sentiments can do so, by
voting for our ticket, it is sound on
that issue and the admission of loyal
Representatives from the Southern
States.
When the meeting adjourned Mr.
Lytle, the President of the Soldiers'
League, proposed three groans for
Andrea; Johnson, and they were given
by himself and some dozen other nice
young men of his political standing.
WY-The Lewistown Gazette tries to
justify Brown'svote increasing his pay
last winter, by saying that the previ
ous Legislature did the same thing.
One wrong never justifies another.
The Legislature of 1865 increased the
salary to $l,OOO for that session only,
and the Legislature 0f1866 was in no
way bound to follow tho bad osarnple
set h - its redecessor. The id it at
their opticin an. on eir own' respon
sibility, as fully as if the Legislature of
1865. had nothing to do of the kind. If
BrOwn succeeds in getting to the
Legislature again, we will not be sur
prised to find him voting for $1,500
salary, as some of the members did
'last winter. This practice of increas
ing salaries is one which the .tax pay
erS:should set their faces against, and
whenever an office-holder who has been
guilty of it comes up for rc-olection,
they should vote him down. Let an
example be made of Mr. Brown.—
Shirleysburgh Herald.
Worse than he Hates the Devil.
-Who does Wharton hate worse than
ho does the devil ? lie refuses to an
swer. The whole Convention will
agree that he said he hated somebody
worse than he did the chnil, but all
cannot agree as to the exact language
he made use of. We did think than
any man who had seen service would be
bold enough to face the music and
speak out. _Perhaps ho will deny hav
ing pledged himself to support Curtin
for the United States Senate.
Air Some of the Radical Republi
cans assert they aro in favor of the
Union of the States. How can they
allow themselves, then, to follow the
lead of such men as Charles Sumner
and Thad Stevens who say that the
Southern St Ites aro "mere territories."
Anything less than a Union of the
States is Disunion, and the Radical's
will find that their darling pro ject of
keeping the States out .of the. Union
until they agree ; to give , the negroos
the right of suffrage, will not work.
. .President: Johnson has not re
moved, nor does he intend to remove,
any one wino is "honest, capable, and
faithful to the Constitution," which ho
has sworn to support, but all true
friends of the government expect that
ho will disiniss every ono who has
given aid and comfort to the Radical
conspiracy to destroy the Constitution,
and establish the miserable oligarchy
of Thad Stevens and the shoddy aris
tocrats who sustain him.
The Veldts of Radical Teachings.
On ThurSday of last week the color
ed men of Bedford belonging to "Equal
Rights League, No. 38," held, a meet_
ing near the borough which was ad
dressed by two or three white radicals.
During the afternoon a Mr. Flcegle,
respectable white man,was driving up
the road near the woods when tho
colored men came out and beat .him
terribly. You wont hear anything of
this outrage in the radical papers.

Major James Steel.
This old gentleman is an indepen
dent candidate for Associate Judge.
Every body knows Major Steel. He is
ono of our oldest and most respected
citizens, but he is poor, a great sin in
the eyes of corrupt politicians. He is
to bo defeated, if it is possible for the
guerrillas of last year to do it. Then
it was all right to make an effort to
defeat a portion of the soldier ticket,
but it would be all wrong now to elect
a deserving man over a man who last
year permitted himself to be made use
of for the purpose of defeating a one
armed soldier. If Mr. Clarkson did
not wish to defeat Judge Beaver he
had a fine opportunity when ho was
nominated in the Committee and was
being voted.for, to decline in favor of
Mr. Beaver. But no, Mr. Clarkson
stood the contest, and we aro not sure
ho did not vote for himself. If Repub
licans can find it in their hearts to de
feat Major Steel merely because he is
not their party nominee they can do
most anything else. Major Steel is a
Republican—his political opinions aro
not ours—but we shall vote for him,
and we hope he may be elected by a
heavy majority.
Robt. McDivitt's support of Mr.
Clarkson and bitter opposition to Maj.
Steel has been paid for. It was Mr.
Clarkson who raised McDivitt's salary
as County Superintendent to one thoit
sand dollars. Tax payers should re
member this.
To the Citizens of Huntingdon County
In the last issue of the Journal &
American there is an editorial article
to which I wish to reply. And first
as to the allegation that I held the
Prothonotary's office some twelve or
fifteen years. This I pronounce incor
rect. I held the office nine years and
was elected thereto without any solic•
itation on my part, and could have
been there longer if I had consented
to bo a candidate for the office. Mr.
Jefferson used to say as to office-hold
ers "few die and none resign." I re
fused to be continued in office, and
therefore was an exception to that
rule. When I left the office there was
between five and six thousand dollars
of fees due to me, of which I collected
about seven hundred dollars and left
the rest in the bands of the people,
where it remains to this day and doubt
less will over remain, and which, if I
now had or could collect, I would not
be a candidate for office, and which
cannot now be collected, being barred
by the statute of limitations.
As to the charge of being a guerilla
candidate for the Democrats, this is
also incorrect. As to my coming out
for this office, no Democrat was con
sulted on the subject: I was brought
out at the solicitation of Republicans
entirely, from three townships in this
county, who said they would not vote
for Mr. Clarkson on any account, but
would vote for Mr. Brooks or else not
REIM
said a Judgeship ought not to be mix
ed up in party polities, and this senti
ment was fully indorsed by all parties
in the last nomination of Judge Tay
lor for President Judge of this district
and to which sentiment all the lawyers
of this bar subscribed their names.—
This being the case, and the now es
tablished rule by common consent of
all parties, in being a Candidate for
that office I am not liable to censure
from any quarter, not having Violated
any itioral,,political or religious obliga
tion in so doing, and therefore now
cheerfully leave to the people of the
county, to -whom it properly belongs,
the decision of the matter, and with
that, be it what it may, I shall be
perfectly content.
