The readers of the American Democrat warn informed ih its last issue that "tv* ILL! A u Kennedt, Esq., lateeditur (If the Shippens burg Sentinel, had purchased that establish ment, with the object of uniting it with the Volunteer. The Democrat, therefore, ns a distinctive paper, lias boon discontinued, nnd after this week its subscribers will be fur nished with the Volunteer. They should have received this number of our paper, but owing to a press of busnsis, we found it im possible to make out the new subscription book in time. We hope they will excuse nnd overlook this unavoidable delay. We prom ise them that hereafter all good-paying sub scribers—and we want no other—will 'receive the paper promptly every week. In ths meantime wo bog-the indulgence of our readers for a few treats to come, and ask them not to judge our paper until wo can make it what We intend it shall bo—one of the best and neatest ih the State. Our pres ent subscription Fist is entirety ton large to to bo worked off by a hand-press. Wo hitfe therefore ordered a now and elegant power press, capable of wo.king 1.000 copies tin hoar. We have also ordered new type for the paper and the job office, and a superior new job press. As we said before, however, ssme weeks will elapse before wo got fairly under Way, sad we know our numerous and kind patrons will excuse all short comings for the present. TO PRINTERS.—For sale at this office, a goad Washington Press —the one on which the Volunteer is now printed. Also, Cases, Job Letter, and other materials far whioh we have no use. They will be told on very reasonable terms. Carlisle Deposit Bank.—We are request ed to state that this Bank will be olased on Thanksgiving Day (In day). TV-laues—Marsi Valuable limestone farms, located near Now ville. The sale takes place on Saturday next. See advertisement in another column. Qua Markets.— Notwithstanding that pri ces are tending downward in the oity cattle market, and flour, grain and produce are al go on the decline there, for the pa'Pt few weeks, the Carlisle market remains firm, and prices ore tending upward. “ Why is it i" is a question we often hear repeated but nev er answered. For the articles of butter, poultry, <to., we ate compelled to piny within a fraction of city prices; and in some instan ces fully as much, which is certainly too ex orbitant for this locality. The wages of the mechanic and working man are not commen surate to the rates of our markets, and we are of the opinion that prices must come down, or consumers will be compelled, in self defence, to send abroad for what they cannot afford to buy here. Suicide.—Alexander M. Parker, seeond son of our respected fellow citizen, John B. Parker, Esq., Committed suicide in a room of his father’s' dwelling'. West High street, by shooting himself through the head, on Monday evening, between 6 and’ 7 o’clock. Young P. had been much exoitad for several days, and bad been in the oars of a man who acted as his nurse. Just previous toommit ting the dreadful deed, he ordered of reques ted his attendant to leave the roam. lie' then to jk his pistol from a drawer, and place ing the nuzzle to the right temple, fired As Coon as the report was hoard the door of his room (whioh he had looked.) was forced open, when the unfortunate youth was found in the ogonies.of death. In two or three minutes he was quite" dead. Young P. was some 22 years of age, and had served for several years in the army, with credit to himself and ad vantage to oar cause. Melancbolly Accident. —for some years there has' lived in Shippensburg a quiet, honest, inoffensive boy, by the name of Juab Black.' In fact Joabooulil scarcely be call •d n buy, fair he was eighteen or twenty years of age, and full six feet high. If there was One trait about him more noticeable than an other it was hie extreme oarele'aoncas and thoughtlessness, and this trait cost him hie life, by a lamentable accident which' occurred on Saturday last. Joab was visiting’ a sis ter in the country, and amusing himsslf with a small single-barreled pistol. The pistol was loaded and ho had unsuccessfully tried several times to fire it off, hut the cap would not snap, the spring of the hammer being faulty. lie then thoughtlessly took the pis tol by the muzzle and struck the hammer upon a log. Of course the loud was dis charged, taking away several of his fingers and passing through the bowels. He walk ed to the House, a distance of several hun dred yards, and told his sister he bad shat himself. Ho then fell to the floor from ex baustion, and breathed bis last in the course of an hour. We. Blair & Son have jnst received very beat qualities Table Oil and Maecaroni, both of wbiob bar* been imported within a meath, . f ,'j,>v ( *'^ 1 ' In compliance with the frequently express* ed desire of prominent Democrats in alt flec tions of the oounty that there should be but one Democratic paper published in Carlisle, the American Democrat has been merged with the American Volunteer. The Volunteer will be enlarged and remodeled, dud printed upon n power prrSs; but as several weeks must necessarily elapse before our now press and typo are ready fur Use, wo will send the Volunteer in its present Hress to our suh* icribers until our preparations for issuing the now paper are eomoloted, which wa trust will not bo later than the middle of January next. The Volunteer will continue to be, ns it has been for over fifty years, a fearless and consistent advocatoof Democratic principles— -1 of those principles which for eighty years as- country individual and general prosperity, boundless territorial extension, public pence and order, and a national great* ness and power which were the admiration and 'erivybf Jib world—of those priuoioles, a departure froth which plunged the country dnto a hlooly nnd devastating civil war, the iad effects rif which will be felt for a century to come. It will continue to advocate those principles, in the firm conviction that al though the dangerous heresies of fanaticism may triumph for n Reason, the sentiment of a broad knd national Dam loraoy, rising su perior to hill sectiona* anim 'sides in its devo tion to the'rights cf the State* and the liber-” ties of the citizen, will as surely he the eon trolling element in our nntintilil politics »n ‘thO'fU'tUrc, as it was the 'source from Which flowed all our liberty, prosperity and great ness in the past. If tho Democrats of Cumberland cob'hty will only do, half their du-.y, it is the purpose of the undersigned to make the Volunteer a flrst-alass paper. Without their united ahd zealous support, this will ho impossible.— Demoorats, ns a general rule, do not properly sustain their party organa j nnd if tlieir local papers are sometimes not whit they should bo, tho fault is with the party nnd not with the poorly paid editor. The Republican party owes its rise,- progress mid nucoess to its liberal support of the papers devoted to its-interests ; anil we hazard nothing in Bay- ing that the D onooraey have suffered defeat from a corresponding neglect of Democratic papers. There hover was a time when it Was marc vitally important than it is now to scatter Democratic truth broadcast among the people, ih CrdeT to Combat-the heresies of tho pArty in power, which strike -at tho vCry foundation of our system of government.— 1 Toe questions now being passed upon will 1 effect the destiny and oh tractor of tho Ame rican Union for ages, and tho decision of those questions depends in a great fnea-otro upon their dismission 1A tho public journals. We trust otir friends will see this important subject in its true light and tend their influ ence to swell out AabsoTiption list in every town and township in the county. There is no surer way to secure the triumph, of our party nnd its principles. The newspaper works silently, ceaselessly nnd powerfully, finding its way into families whore no other I power is at work. It is tho great levor of that public opinion whioh shakos tho world With its tread. Every min who fools an ia - -latent—Sn—the— cause—oi—Democracy— should— therefore see to it that his neighbors nro sup plied with wholesome roadieg matter. It there are any just entering upon tho active duties af life, place pure And Unadulterated Democratic doctrine in their hands, that they may not be led astray after false Gods. II thefe Aim any (do poor to pay for a paper, let their riefi neighbors subscribe for them in tho firm assurance that they can find un more profitable investment for their money. Lot one and All do their duty, and on our part wo will try, in return, to give them the best Democratic paper over published in Southern Pennsylvania. Wiiile the Volunteer will ho essentially a Democratic paper, no effort will be spared to make its pages Interesting and attractive to tho general Toad or Wo hope to make its In cal columns a complete record "f all matters of interest occurring in Cumberl nd and the ‘ora for sale two adjacent counties. It will u.u tain the latest news by mail and telegraph, up to the time of going to press, and its selections oh general literature, politics, science, agriculture anil finance will he made with the care befitting a high-toned family journal. Wo also expect to sCdhre the services of reliable correspond ents in the cities of Washington and Harris burg. during the sessions of Congress and the Legislature. We iritenif nfaking a large addition to the Jobbing material of the office, which, together with the material now in the combined offf oes, will make one of the largest and most complete job offices outside of this pitied. The union of the I wd’papers has given ns a sub soriptioo list which is perhaps larger than that of any paper in this Valley, and wc can confidently recommend the Volunteer as one of the host adrertising mediums in Southern Pennsylvania. War* Hods* Damaged.— The side of the large warehouse of Messrs Newcomer & Co., at Oakville, fell out, on Thursday morning loot. The building wai filled with grain, which, with the debris, completely obstructed the truck of the Cumberland Valley Rail Road. A number of workmen were on hand, and the track’was sufficiently oloarel for the train to pass’on Thursday afternoon. Rowdyism’.— According to what we h'eftr daily of the doings about town, it seems tlmf there is n’n increasing laxity of morals in Carlisle’ that needs to be cheeked, nod the citizens might to give the police all the aid in their pouter to suppress the evil. Rowdy ism allow'd liml no defenders. Oiir streets' should he sale and free for all to travel at all hours of the Jay or night. The police are the guardians of thq peace, and our citizens expect them to do their duly. ff the present force is not sulKbrent. let us hhvo ah addition al number of policemen. Arrest— Two detectives from New York arrived in this place on Friday Inst, nnd on Saturday morning arrested a man {a German, whose name we did nut learn ) who is charged with ci mplioity in the recent shocking mno der in the City Park, at Brooklyn. The ufii oers, immediately after the errcit, left for New York with the prisoner. TO TUB PUBLIC. JOHN B. BRATTON. WILLIAM KENNEDY, LET THEIR QR9ANS BE HEARD. That original disunionlst and traitor, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, (who ic was said bad more rower over Mr. Lincoln than any man living.) said in a late speech: “ When I hear so much said, as I now bear said, of the sufferings of the blacks, [ confers that I sometimes feel that if .it is so bad, I wish they would not tell it.” Just so. But having helped go largely in the devil’s work of bringing on the sufferings of the blacks, it is right that he should hear it—every groan, every shriek and wail of agony that arises from the starving, drifting, disease ridden creatures. Let him and his radical aiders nnd 00-workers listen to it all —witness it all, if possible —for it is all their own deplorable work. In an address delivered at the Church of the Puritans. Now York, by Chaplain French of the Freodmon's Bureau, the speaker said: ‘ If not assisted. Shirty thousand froedmen will \ orish in Georgia before the first of March. They aro starving and dying there, .nailing for coffins because ‘th<*‘y can’t get bread." Geh. "Fisk, of the 'Kentucky hud Tennessee region, spoke in much the same strain. Tilts, then, is the pkradise of free dom to which the &ew England fanatics hare brought the tailored race. This is the result of a Black 'Republican (bhr ifehr-i’ war “ for the African and his race’;" of four billions of money squandered ; of hundreds of thousands of valuable ?iVes wasted in battle; of filling our NorMierh Ihhd with maimed heroes, an|Ji grief and poverty-stricken widbws and or phans.

Will somebody tell Us what we have gained by tho war •* for the African and his race 7" CONGRESS Assembled on Monday, In the House, Mr. Colfax, of Indiana, was re elected Speaker, and Mr. M'Piierson, of Pa., re elected Clerk. All tlie old officers were retained. Tho radi cals have it their own way. A resolution, offered by Titan. Stevens, excluding nil Southern members, was aiipted. yeas 123 nays 33. judge Kellv offered a resolution giving the negroes of the District of Oolum ilia the right to vote. In the Senate Mr. Wade rtnl a bill in place, conferring the right of suffrage on the negroes of the District of Columbia. Mr. Stni.VER introduced n hill declaring that ire groes caU hereafter ai>t as Jurors, “ whore one-sixth of the population are of African de scent.” flo also offered a bill which requires all Southern men to take An oath (avertible to negro-voting and negro-equality. Also a bill declaring null nnd void all State laws that have reference to Africans. After this batch of negro bills had tteeri teferrod 1 , the dignified liud-y adjourned.

Indeed, his vindication. s is complete, triumphant and truthful, lie proves what every intelligent man knows, that RepubTichh leaders were the fir?t rebels, nnd tnat they, With Mr. Lincoln at their head, had VesoVyed upon war immediately after the elebtihd of 1860.
