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.

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.
