Nonsonso.— The editor of tho Monitor has never seen a man swallow a sword both ends foremost or ho wouldn't indirectly ask us foolish questions. /ger Grant Club No. 1, was fully or ganized for business on Saturday even ing last, and the books aro now ready for the names of all who wish to join with the Club. The next meeting will be on Saturday evening next at Let terman's Hotel. OttoArtizE.—We are pleased to bear that the friends of Grant, Colfax, and Victory, in several of the townships in this county aro making arrangements to organize Grant Clubs. This is the spirit—attack the enemy while they are in confusion, and the battle is half won. ANOTHER "NEW PARTY."-A circular informs us that "At a convention of laborers, farmers, mechanics and ex soldiers, in Pfoutz's Valley, Perry county, Pennsylvania, April 23, 1868, Henry Braden presiding, many inter esting and able addresses were made on the subject of Christian statesman ship. On motion, Dr. Robert A. Simp son, of Liv.erpool, Pa., was unanimous ly nominated for President of the Uni ted States, and Robert D. Eldridge, Esq., of Baltimore, Md., for Vico Pres ident. THE UNRECONSTRUCTED STATES.- The Southern States, which have not yet held elections on the ratification of the new Constitutions under the re construction laws, are Virginia, Missis sippi, and Texas. Virginia completed her Constitution, and her Convention adjourned on Friday night, April 17. The election for its ratification has not yet been ordered. In Mississippi the Constitution has boon completed, and was signed by the members of the Convention on the 15th of May. On the 12th of May, in tho Constitutional Convention, an ordi nance was passed designating June 22d for the election for ratifying the Constitution. Major General Gillem has approved the ordinance, and the election will consequently take place on the day designated by the Conven tion. Texas is very far behind in the work of roconstruction. Iler election for a convention has beet. held, resulting favorably, and General Buchanan has issued an order fixing the first of Juno as the time for the meeting of that body. The Constitutional Convention. accordingly met on the Ist of Juno, at Austin, and is now in-session for the purpose of framing a now Constitution, which will probably consume two or three months, so that the election for its ratification can hardly take place until some time in the fall. "Let us havo peace." So says Gen eral Grant, and so say all who have the good of our common country at heart. Political Chip Basket. The Republicans of Erie county have adopted the Crawford county system. Grant, it is said, - wrote bis letter of acceptance inside of ten minutes. Tho election in Oregon lately result ed in a Democratic majority by over two thousand votes. The President last week renomina ted Ex-Attorney General Stanberry to his old position, but the Senate couldn't see it. Pendleton appears to be gaining ground as the Democratic candidate. Lot them put him up, and ho is beaten easy. Ho is "too fresh." The official majority in Michigan against a now Constitution, which provided for negro suffrage at the elec. tion in April, was 38,825. Illinois under Republican control, remembers her soldiers. Out of seven State offices, five of the candidates on the Union ticket are Union soldiers. Many of the Democrats aro looking with favor upon the proposed nomina tion of Salmon P. Chase—and yet ho is a strong and uncompromising advo cate of universal negro suffrage. The election in Washington city a week ago, was claimed by the Demo crats, but it-appears the Republicans will have a small majority after throw ing out illegal votes. Hon. George C. Gorham has been chosen Secretary of the United States Senate, in lieu of John W. Forney, re signed. lie was the recent unsuccess ful Union candidate for Governor of California. Somebody has discovered that the Republican ticket is purely military, being made up of General Grant and Col. Fax. Its strongest supporter, as a consequence, says a radical paper is General Satisfaction. The States which have instructed for Mr. Pendleton are, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, lowa, Nebraska, Oregon, Cal ifornia, and Kentucky, and he is under stood to be the first choice of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Maryland, and Tennessee. The first object of every true Repub lican is to work for a thorough, corn. plate, haimonious and active organiza tion. We have the material of num bers sufficient to increase the Republi. can veto in every election district in the State. • The Richmond Dispatch thinks tho chanco of harmonizing the two wings of the Democratic party is almost hope less. It says the War Democrats would vote for General Grant rather than for Pendleton; and the Copper heads or peace Democrats would rath er that Grant should be elected than Hancock. The Dayton Ledger, Vallandigham's organ, says of that branch of the Dem ocratic party which it represents :—"lf a 'War Democrat' of the Marble-Hal pine 'flaunting lie' school is chosen standard.bearer of the party, his do. feat is inevitable, because the wing known as the Peace Democrats will not support him; if at all, at least with no degree of zeal—and they aro a power in the land." The Chase Movement. A dispatch from Washington says: A number of Pennsylvania politicians are now in Washington prospecting for the nomination of Chief Justice Chase. As part of the movement, the following circular calling a meeting of friends in Philadelphia is interesting: PHILADELPHIA, May 29, 1808.—Dear Sir :—You are hereby respectfully re quested to meet a few of the friends of Chief Justice Chase on the tenth of Juno, 1868, at noon, at the Continental Hotel, in this city, for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of presenting his name as a candidate for President of the United States. Very respectfully, [Signed] John Welch, Wm. F. Johnson, John W. Fra zier. Messrs. Welch and Frazier who sign ed this letter are the parties to whom the Chief Justice recently, as they re• port, said ho was in the bands of his friends. They and Mr. Johnston aro members of the great Democratic club of Philadelphia, of which the latter is President. Case of Jeff, Davis Postponed, RICHMOND, Juno 3.—The United States Court met this morning, Chief Justice Chase and Judge Underwood presiding. The Chief Justice called the case of Jefferson Davis, when Mr. Anderson, of Mississippi, ono of the counsel for the defense, read an argu ment for postponement till October, signed by Evarts and O'Conor. The Chief Justice then asked if counsel were ready for trial, independent of this stipulation. ' Gov. Wells, for the prosecution, replied that in view of the absence of the District Attorney, whose wife is in a dying condition, the absence of the prisoner's counsel by this stipulation, add the absence of Mr. Everts, who stood in the position of more directly representing the Attor ney General, the case could not well bo gone on with. Ho suggested some day of the term in October when the Chief Justice could attend. The coun sel for the defense moved for postpone ment till next torn, which the Chief Justice granted, saying at the same time that had the trial taken place in May a year ago, last fall or now, it would have been more convenient for him, as ho was ready to try the case. Ho would, however, attend next term if possible, in view of his other duties. The witnesses, including General R. E Leo, wore recognized to appear on the 4th Monday in November, and the prisoner's bail bond renewed. Houses can be built in New Orleans at least fifteen per cent. cheaper than they could before the war, and great activity in building prevails. In Pennsylvania it costs fifteen par cent. more to build houses since, than it did before the war. "Let us Have Peace !" [From Ito Now York Timm.] General Grant's letter accepting the Republican nomination for President is a gem. It says just enough, and not a word too much. It is clear, un mistakably explicit on every point, and as modest and unpretending as Grant is himself. Its tone is thoroughly pa triotic, and in full sympathy with the people upon the great principles of re publican government. General Grant characterizes tho pro ceedingsof the National Convention as ' having been marked by "wisdom, mod eration, and patriotism"—and ho is unquestionably right in believing that they express the feelings of the great mass of those who sustained their coun try during the recent trials. No con vention has ever met which more fully embodied the sentiments and opinigns of the people than did the Convention at Chicago. Of the resolutions adopted, and of his own sentiments on the subjects invol ved in the canvass, General Grant pro eeede to say : "I indorse their resolutions, and if elected to the office of President of the United States it will be my endeavor to administer all the laws in good faith, with economy, and with the view of giving peace, quiet, and pro tection everywhere. In times like the present it is impossible, or at least em inently improper, to lay down a policy to be adhered to, right or wrong, through an administration of four years. Now political issues not fore seen are constantly arising, the views of the public on old ones are constant ly changing, and a purely administra tive officer should always be left free to execute the will of the people. I always have respected that will, and always shall. Peace, and universal prosperity, its sequence, with economy of administration, will lighten the . bur den of taxation, while it constantly re duces the national debt. Let us have peace." No language could more fully or more explicitly embody the dominant wish of the American people than that with which the General closes this ad mirable letter—" Let us have peace I" It is the wish nearest the heart of all classes—all States and all sections. Peace—a settled, just, and permanent peace—not merely the end of war, but the end of the discord, resentment, and hatred which survive the war—is what tho American people, without distinction of section, of party, or of race, most of all, at this moment, most fervently desire. They 'lice in it the indispensable condition and the sure guarantee of the "universal prosperity" which General Grant justly and fitly says is "its sequence." It is the begin ning of the nation's convalescence. When it comes, tho wounds of war will begin to heal :—the losses of war can be repaired :—the life of the nation, paralyzed and checked by war, will again start forth and renew, with aug mented vigor and force, the develop ment of the nation's strength. And the country will recognize in the victorious General who closed the war and put the finishing blow to the Rebellion out of which it grew, the man, best fitted of all, to give the na tion that peace whose worth ho under stands so well. His election will ro• assure the country, in all its parts, that the reign of peace—under tho pro tection of the law and the Constitution —has again begun. livery branch of industry—every department of public and of private activity—labor in all its forms—enterprise, adventure, energy in all the shapes and channels through Which their results are achieved, will experience a now and more vivid life, and will pour into the nation's lap richer and more abundant fruits. The whole country repeats the de mand, "Lot us have Peace," and will regard Grant's election as the harbin ger of its coming. The New York Citizen on the 10- publioan Nominations. Colonel lialpine, who represents the War Democrats of New York, thus candidly gives his opinion : Grant and Colfax made a ticket hard to boat. The wonderful military success of the one, and the groat polit ical ability of the other, cannot be written down or belittled by newspa per editors; and the attempt to do so is a folly only worthy of the late man agement of the Democratic party.— The hero of Donelson, Corinth, most wonderful of ail, of Vicksburg, and fi nally of Richmond, is not a third-rate general, and no literary scribe can make him ono. The gentleman who has worked his way up to the Speak. ership of the House of Representatives is not a bad politician , and those who buy him for ono will not mako a profit able bargain. Probably there are no two leading names stronger, individu ally and collectively, than the two which have been put forward. And if they do not receive the support of the people, it will be from other than per sonal reasons. The Republicans have made their cast, and it remains for the Democrats to beat it if they can. How they aro to effect this is a serious question. A bait is now offered to the Conserva tives, the War Democrats, and all the floating population, which has no de cided views. Grant, although ho com mitted the grave error—probably in fluenced by private feeling—of favor ing impeachment, is known not to be an extreme fanatic. His conduct and declarations at the close of tho war make so much certain. The platform is so conveniently indefinite, and is stronger by what it omits than by that which it assorts. Tho Stephens dog ma, that negro suffrage is to be forced upon tho North by Congressional nomination after being repudiated by the popular voice, is set' aside; and the question of suffrage for the South is kept conveniently indefinite. The payment of the national debt is left to time, an easy way of getting rid of it, and is.only to be paid according to the spirit and letter the statutes under which it was created—that is, in greenbacks or in gold, as may suit the public taste. The only positive ex pression on the opinion is on questions that offer an adversary little advan tage. The Convention was powerful, dramatic and harmonious, and has the prestige of success, which will draw many to its standard. Do the Democrats imagine that they can defeat such candidates with any men who only represent a sec tion, too, of their party 7 Has Copper headißm ever yet defeated loyalty? Can Pendleton overcome Grant ? It has been our boast there wore more Democratic than Republican soldiers in the ranks of the loyal armies. Will these fight ono way and vote another ? Having whipped the enemy in the field, will they vote him the victory in the council? The leaders who think so must be "Old Lino Whigs"— those most hopeless of political drivel ors. Can wo go into this fight against the glories of Vicksburg, Donelson, Appotnatox Court House, and a thous and other famous fields, with "peace at any price," and "the war alfailure," inscribed on our banners? To win at all, we will want all our strength and all our ability. We must havo the Conservative vote; we must win the soldiers, the million of bayonets which have not yet stopped thinking. There is but ono candidate %vhe can promise us the hope of success who has yet he'en presented to tho public, and that man is Winfield Scott Hancock. Funeral of Ex-President Buchanan, [Special Dispatch to the State Canal LANCASTER, June 4 The funeral of ex-President Buch anan took place this afternoon. An immense concourse of people were pres• cut to witness the ceremonies, which were of a very imposing character. Delegations from all the surround ing towns and hundreds of persons from a distance were present. Business throughout the city was entirely suspended doting the after noon—the principal hotels, halls and engine houses having their flags at half-mast. The scene along the route of the funeral cortege beggars description.— Conveyances of almost every class were brought into requisition, but the mass of the people were compelled to go on foot. The procession reached from Mr. Buchanan's residence, Wheatland, to Centre Square, in Lancaster, and it is estimated that there were over 3,000 persons in the procession, exclusive of tboso in carriages. The entire Fire Department of the city, City and County Officers, Judges of the Court, Members of the Bar, Medical Faculty, Trustees. Faculty and Students of Franklin and Marshall Colleges, Trustees, Faculty and Stu dents of the Normal School of Board of School Directors, Tea chers of Public Schools, Odd Fellows, Beneficial Societies, and the Mssonic Order, were in line. A committee) of Congressmen, to gether with members of the City Coun cils of Baltimore, and ex-Governor Thomas of Maryland, arrived hero in the two o'clock train, to attend the body. The funeral did not take place until five o'clock. Upon reaching the Woodward Hill Cemetery the proces sion halted in open order, the clergy, corpse and relatives passing through. The remains wore placed in such a po sition in the cemetery that all who re mained in lino bad an opportunity to view them. Tho Rev. Dr. J. W. Novi n, President of Franklin and Marshall College, con ducted the funeral services at the house, andin the course of his remarks said that no man had the right to judge Mr. Buchanan's conduct at the be ginning of Ile war in the light of sub sequent events which no human eye at that time could forsee. That in jus tice ho should be judged by the cir cumstances and conditions of his own time. To do otherwise would be gross ly unhistorical, unphilosophieal and unchristian. In justice to Mr. Bu chanan ho would say, and his per sonal relations to him gave him oppor tunity of knowing, that up to Ihe hour of his death ho had never changed his mind in regard to his own policy in the beginning of the war; that ho had been often heard to say that had he to pass through the same circumstan ces he would act differently from what ho then (lid. Mr. Nevin then gave at great length his own views as to the sincerity of Mr. Buchanan's statements, and the sin cerity of his convictions, his honesty and conscientiousness, and that he did what ho believed was for the highest interest of his country. At the close of his remarks the line of march formed, and We solemn cor tege, some two miles in length, march ed to Woodward Hill Cemetery, where the remains were deposited in the fam ily lot. A corrospondent furnishes us with the following incident, illustrating one of the leading traits in the character of our futuro President : During the Petersburg campaign of 186 k several privates were engaged in unloading barrels of "salt horse" from a transport at City Point, and were in charge of a lieutenant of a New York regiment, who took every occasion to show his authority. To one of his abusive remarks ono' of the privates made reply, whereupon the lieutenant administered severe kicks to the offeu dor, who offered no resistance, but continued on with his work. A short thick-sot man, wearing a slouched hat and a rather seedy officer's cloak, who had been standing by for some time, hereupon threw off his cloak and coat and proceeded to help to unload the transport. After the task was accom plished, the officer donned his coat and cloak and asked the lieutenant, in very civil terms, his name and regi• ment : "Lieutenant—, of the New York Volunteers. By what authority do you dare ask such a question ?" "Report yourself immediately to your colonel under arrest, by order of General Grant, for cruelty to your• men, and remember• (bat abuse of pri• vates by officers is not tolerated by the present commander of this. army," re plied the "thick set" officer,lighting cigar and slowly walking away.
