Brown, of this county, late as sociate editor of the New Castle Gazette & Democrat, has assumed a similar posi tion on the Clarion Democrat. He is a racy writer and will add strength to the Democrat. Success attend him. NW We hope the Monitor has copied Mr. Over's statement of the difficulty be tween himself and Mr. Hartley. We re member the circumstance very well. It was a "tilt" between a Union man to the core and a Rebel sympathizer, which the latter had better say as little about as pos sible. its,.The Philadelphia Press alleges that the State ticket will loose 300 votes in this county. We have no idea where the Press gets its information. We do not know a single Republican who will vote the Democrat ticket, and if the Re publicans get a full vote out, of which there is an excellent prospect, the Repub lican State ticket will have 1,000 majority in old Huntingdon. ifir A correspondent of the Philadel phia Press, of the 22d ult., makes a state ment that the friends of Mr. Errett, Chair man of the Republican State Central Com mittee of Pennsylvania, quote him as saying that Hartranft cannot be elected in October, in the face of the determined op position of so large a proportion of the Republican press, and the voters of the State." Mr. Errett commands us to give the lie to this statement. If Mr. Errett had been as anxious to conciliate and har monize the minority, at Harrisburg, as he is to deny this harmless buncombe, it would not be necessary to send urging circulars to the press. " A BOLD, BAD, AND DANGER OUS MAN." In his arraignment of the President, Mr. Sumner says he is "a bold, bad and dangerous man." Let us see: He did not exhibit any dangerous symptoms when he was "earning a few hundred dollars tanning leather in Galena," as Sumner sneeringly remarked. But we will follow him to Fort Donelson, where Sumner's present admirers first began to think that Grant was a dangerous man. Floyd and Pillow were both so much impressed with Grant's dangerous intentions that under cover of night's darkness they took a hasty flight. Buckner, too, deeming discretion the better part of valor, hauled down the rebel stars and bars to permit Grant to raise the glorious stars and stripes, and thus avoid further trouble with this bold tanner. Beauregard was of the same opinion at Shiloh, as, panic stricken, with his rebel horde, he hastened from the field. Pem berton thought that entreaties would not save him at Vicksburg, as Grant's cannon raked the town, and he was so impressed with the danger threatened, that he sur rendered his whole army as prisoners of war to this bold and dangerous man. Poor Bragg felt the peril of his situation as he hastened down Lookout Mountain to get away from Grant. In the Wilderness and at Appomattox Lee was fully persua ded that Grant was a bold and dangerous man. And Jeff. Davis, too, as clad in crinoline, be found the '-last ditch," en tertained the same opinion. All the Ku-Klux in rebeldom think Grant a very bold and dangerous man ; and the-fear of the Galena tanner of hides and rebels is ever before their eyes. But to prove Mr. Sumner's assertion beyond the shadow of a doubt, those great, good, honest and conscientious patriots, Hall and Tweed, of Tammany fame, add their united testimony that Gen. Grant is a "bold, bad, and dangerous man." We must confess that from the records it does appear that rebels, ku-klux, thieves, swindlers, and Tammany Rings have rea son to fear and quake with Grant in the Executive Chair. But is there anything to show that loyal, honest and law-abiding people have aught to fear from this "bold, bad, and danger ous man ?" The people will answer in November. THE TARIFF QUESTION IN THE CAMPAIGN. There is no more energetic class of politicians in the country than the advo cates of Free Trade. They are already prepared to enter upon the Presidential campaign with vigor and determination.— The nomination of Horace Greeley by the Free Traders' Convention did not, it is true, give general satisfaction among those who desired an ont-and-out Free Trade candidate. But in this as in everything else Greeley has allowed his insane desire to obtain an election to crush out his long cherished principles as a matter of expedi ency. At a meeting of the leading Free Traders held in New York on Thursday of week before last, at which Schurz, Trum bull' Wells, Bryant, Grosvenor and Atkin son were present the prevailing sentiment was in favor of indorsing Greeley, and the Chappaqua Sage invited the prominent members of the party to breakfast next morning. These his life-long opponents l on the Tariff question are now his sup porters, under a pledge, no doubt, that if he is elected they will have the privilege of selecting a Free Trader as Secretary of the Treasury. Again, Greeley is coquetting with the Democratic party to secure a nomination at Baltimore. That party, as is well known, are all Free Traders, almost without ex ception. Now supposing Greeley should be endorsed and supported by the Demo cratic party, be will then represent the entire Free Trade sentiment and power of the country. In the spirit, and in fact by the very words of the Cincinnati platform, Horace Greeley, the life-long protectionist, has divested himself of all authority and responsibility on that question. He leaves it to the different Congressional districts to say whether they will have free trade, a revenue tariff or protection. But this is a mere delusion. The people do not make the laws; and even though revenue laws originate in the Lower House of Congress, yet it is well known that the Secretary of the Treasury is the chief agent in framing the laws pertaining to the tariff. The late Hon. Robert J. Walker was President Polk's Secretary of the Treasury, and he was the author of the free trade tariff of that period. So now, should Greeley be elected the Secretary of the Treasury will be a Democrat and an advocate of free trade, and thus will largely control legisla tion on the tariff. Of this there can be no doubt. EDITOR Convention. In view of these facts, the necessity of informing the public mind thoroughly in the principles of protection as contrasted with free trade cannot be too strongly im pressed upon the minds of the active por tion of the Republican party. There will, it is now quite evident, be but two parties in the campaign, and on no question will they be more distinctively known than that of the tariff. Greeley's supporters will all, with rare exceptions, be advocates of free trade, while the leaders of the par ty in favor of the re-election of Gen. Grant arc fully committed to the policy of pro tection. But the masses are not so well informed as to the relative merits and de merits of the questions of Protection and Free Trade. They are seeking information on the subject. They are anxious to un derstand fully the claims of each, to com prehend their relations to our industries and to the comforts of the working classes. To meet this emergency carefully prepared tracts, truthfully and clearly presenting statistical information on the subject, should have a wide circulation through the agency of the National Republican Com mittee, State Committees, and their aux iliaries, the local leagues and clubs. The Republican press should also have prepa red and published from time to time, brief but comprehensive editorials, communica tions and selections on the subject. There are a number of excellent periodicals now Published in the interest of the protective policy. These should be found in the ed itorial room of every Republican paper in the country, and liberal quotations made from week to week. Many of these pub lications, devoted to the principles of Pro tection, are conducted with great ability, and present the question truthfully and forcibly in all its bearings upon the indus tries and general interests of the country. The Free Trade party are now forcing their publications gratuitously into every part of the country, and in fact into every house in each community. It is no devi ation from the truth to say that those free trade publications are filled with misrepre sentation, and are calculated to deceive.— It could scarcely be otherwise : they start upon a false principle, and their arguments are necessarily false and deceptive. Yet the masses are unable to detect the errors of the illogical yet plausible arguments put forth, and without we circulate the anti dote and place it within the reach of the public generally, the Free Trade poison is permitted to do its work without check or hindrance. But even if Greeley should be rejected by the Baltimore Convention and a Demo crat selected, or no selection made at all, the necessity of thorough work in the cir culation of information on the question and importance of Protection to American Industries will not be any the less impera tive. The Free Traders are at work and will continue at work throughout the cam paign, and for that matter to the end of time, if they cannot accomplish their pur poses sooner. They will work under Gree ley as their leader, or they can labor inde pendent of him, and so long as they are lavishly supplied with British gold, the Democratic press will be subsidized in their interests, and the country will continue to be filled with free trade pamphlets and free trade lecturers. itm, Hon. John Cessna, for the purpose of carrying the Conferees of Fulton coun ty, for Congress, has purchased the Fulton County Republican and named W. Scott Alexander, Esq., as editor. We are sorry that our friend Shafer, with whom we have always been on the best of terms, and who is a very clever gentleman, is re tiring from the editorial chair. We wish him success in anything iu which he may engage in the future. gel.. The thing that has made the most noise in the world, for the last week or two, has been the Boston Jubilee. We choose to reserve the right and privilege of questioning the wisdom of committing the party to the support of the Cincinnati nominees, believ ing a better and more expedient plan is practica ble, but since, by courting this Liberal influence, things have assumed the present attitude, and in asmuch as '•men are nothing and principles are eternal, - -the resolutions adopted by the Liberals, savoring so strongly of the principles for which we battle—so much so that discarding past and dead issues, we fail to discover anything in the resolutions which would or could be very obnox ious to the Democracy—we are free to state that, on all material objections to the present party in power, there seems to be but little diversity of opinion as to their ruinous and iniquitous effect. Tbis is the lucid manner in which the Monitor puts it. The editor is just pre paring the butter for Greeley's head, and when the Baltimore Convention endorses him, he will pin the venerable philoso pher's ears back, and swallow him, gaiters and all, "just as e-a-s-y !"—in less time than it will take to read the above straight sentence. la_ The Harrisburg Telegraph is ap plying the lash fearfully to the few who do not support the State ticket. Would it not be more advisable to treat these people in a more liberal spirit and not drive them out of the party ? "Rule or ruin" is bad policy. We think a little conciliation would be far more preferable. We know a few editors who can't be in timidated, and this kind of thing wouldn't work well with them. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER The Campaign—Reports front the Country —lntelligence from the North—Pros peet in the South. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1, 1872. THE CAMPAIGN. The Congressional Republican Commit tee at Washington, are daily in receipt of letters from all part of the country, giving the views and general temper of the peo ple. Mr. Sumner's attack upon the Pres ident, according to all accounts, has done much to strengthen the President in the confidence and affections of the people.— It is so completely confined to stale and oft repeated charges, which had already been proved to be utterly without foundation in truth, that it is now seen that the opposi tion is personal, selfish and frivolous. Grant is more popular to-day, the Re publican party is more united than when Grant was elected President. THE FEELING IN THE NORTH. Senator Wilson made a short visit to Washington, last week. Ere says the par ty is unit in the New England States, and the November elections will return much larger majorities for Grant than on the former Presidential election. Mr. Wilson is in excellent spirits. Sumner, he says, will not lose the support of his constitu ents, but they are severe in their denunci ations of his personal attack on Grant. THE REPORTS FROM THE SOUTH The Hon. Wm. E. Chandler, secretary of the Republican National Committee, is in receipt of numerous letters from the South, giving the most cheering accounts in relation to the coming campaign and to the feeling generally in that section. Mr. Chandler's correspondents say that if Mr. Greeley is nominated on indorsed at Balti more, the Democratic party will be more di vided there than in the North, and that a large number of the best men of the South who took part in the late war will vote for Gen. Grant. N. H. P. Letter from the West. LEAVENWORTH, Kin., June 20, 1872, Editor Journal: We left Council Bluffs, la., on the morning of the 14th inst., en route for St. Joseph, Mo., and Leavenworth, Kansas.— The railroad over which we traveled, is called the Kansas City, St. Joseph and Council Bluffs. It is a part of the Great Southern Line, by which passengers, coming from the West over the Union Pacific, reach St. Louis and New Orleans in the shortest time. It tra verses for nearly two hundred miles the rich valley of the Missouri river, on whose broad green prairies can be seen countless herds of cattle at this season of the year. Some of these herds which we noticed, were estimated to contain over six thousand head. Near Sioux City and for many miles south, the valley of the Missouri river is fifteen to twenty miles in width, while at Omaha, it is not more than four miles, and at St. Joseph, two hundred miles further south, the bluffs close in on the east, and form its immediate banks. In the early part of the day, we passed through the towns of Bartlett, Percival, East Nebraska City and Hamburg, none of them having a population of over 1,500. Crossing the south western boundary of lowa, after leaving Ham• burg, we traversed the counties of Atchison, Holt and Andrew, in Missouri, and reached St. Joseph about noon. This city is pleasantly located on the east bank of the Missouri river, and has a popula tion of 20,000, and is the county-seat of Bu chanan county. It is 565 wiles above St. Louis, and is said to be the third city in the State, in point of business. Its principal ho tel is the Pacific House ; it is five stories high. In Council Bluffs, we noticed that many of the finest private residences were located in the beautiful glens, formed by the pyramid-shaped bluffs of the Missouri, while in St. Joseph these great "sand hills" are either entirely re moved and the buildings and streets made to occupy their former site, or, as in many in stances, the houses are erected on their graded summits, and reached from the streets, by means of stairways, varying from twenty to thirty feet in height. Leaving St. Joseph, we traveled two and one-half hours south,through the cottonwood bottom lands of the Missouri river, reaching East Leavenworth about ten o'clock at night, from which point we were conveyed by steam ferry and omnibus, to the Continental Hotel, on the west side of the river. Leavenworth is one of the finest cities in the west. It was about the only place in this part of the State, which, during the late Rebellion, might safely be called a "city of refuge." The rebels, while they frequently gave expressions to their de sire to occupy it, were never permitted to do so. They came close enough at one time to exchange shots with its garrison across the Missouri river, but for some reason, probably on account of the proximity of Fort Leaven• worth, declined to attempt an assault. The city is situated, as you know, on the west bank of the Missouri, 495 miles above St. Louis, and by river, 305 miles below Omaha. It is the present terminus of the Chi cago 4 Southwestern Railroad, and also of the Leavenworth Branch of the Kansas Pacific ; while it is a station by ferry transfer, on the Kansas City, St. Joseph & Council Bluffs, and on the Missouri River Railroad. It is the county-seat of Leavenworth county, and has a population of some 25,000. Its best hotels are the Planter's, Continental, and Mansion House. Only about sixteen years ago, the present site of Leavenworth was adense hazel thicket, while to-day she is the largest city between St. Louis and San Francisco. Her growth, which has been marvelous, is all that makes her the metropolis of the Missouri Valley.— Fort Leavenworth, which joins the city on the north, is the present headquarters of the de partment of the Missouri. The Government buildings here are the Leavenworth Arsenal and the United States Military Post of Fort Leavenworth, which affords sufficient accom modations for one regiment of cavalry, but at present there are only six companies of sol diers quartered here. Gen. Pope occupies a fine residence, overlooking the Missouri river, and Gen. Miles, commandant of the Fort, has also very pleasant quarters. The great iron bridge over the river at this point, which was three years in building and cost $BOO,OOO, is now completed, and gives the city an unbroken railroad connection with every point in the east, while other railroads now built or being built, will reach every place of importance north, west and south of Leavenworth. This iron bridarests on stone piers, which are encased in metalic tubes ten feet in diameter, and which sinks into the ground a distance of seventy feet, being im bedded twelve feet in the solid rock beneath the bottom of the river. This bridge is so con structed as to allow teams and person afoot to cross, as well as cars, while the one at Omaha is only a railroad bridge. The bridge at Omaha is said to have cost $3,000,000, and both of them, 1 am told, were built at a great sacrifice of human life. The Leavenworth Coal Mining Company sunk a shaft several hundred feet in depth near the river, in the northern part of the city, and were vewarded by striking a vein of coal, of the very best quality. They are now work ing one hundred and fifty hands, and are min ing from four to five thousand bushels daily. Leavenworth has twenty-six churches, with about 7,000 members; an immense cathedral, Bishop's House, Sisters' Hospital, and St. Vincent's Orphan Asylum, under the control and care of the Sisters of Charity; Protestant Orphan Asylum and Home for Friendless Children, Home for Friendless Women, and various other benevolent institutions. There are six Banks here, with an aggregate capital of $2,000,000, and four private banking houses, nine newspapers, five of which are dailies. four English and one German, and four week lies. The city has several important and ex tensive manufacturing establishments, promi among which are the Brass Foundry, Jewelry House, employing forty hands, Carpet House ; a large one soon to be erected by a Philadel phia firm; Woollen Factory, Car Shops, Plan ing Mills, Furniture Houses, Silver and Lead Smelting Houses; Carriage and Wagon Manu factories, and an extensive Candle manufacto ry. There is also a large pork and beef pack ing establishment here, where they slaughter a train load of hogs and cattle in a few hours, and ship them to eastern markets. The city is justly celebrated for the varied style and beauty of its private residences. It has its Broadway, on which are located some delightful homes of the wealthiest classes.— Prominent amongst these are the fine house and grounds of Senator Caldwell, whose name has been so often in public print of late. Not withstanding be has some bitter partisan ene mies, the people of Leavenworth acknowledge that as a successful business man, he has done much to aid the rapid development of their city. From here, we go directly home by St. Louis, Cincinnatti and Pittsburgh. L. Artingeo. BERKHEIMER--WILKINSON--At Wood bury, on the 10th of June, at the residence of the Rev. John A. Wilkinson, by Rev.
