CARLISLE, PA., Thursday Morning, March 8, 1800. I. B. BBITTOX A W. KENNEDY EDITORS AND PROriUKTOBS. FOR GOVERNOR, HIESTER CLYMER, OR lIERKS COUNTY Of R STAXHARD-pEAItEK. Wo place at the head of our columns this morning, the name of our glorious standard-bearer, 11 eistek (' eyme i :, of “ old Berks.” Of the many distinguished gentlemen spoken of in connection with the nomination for Governor, it was evi-' dent that Senator Clymer had the hearts of the majority with him, and his nomi nation therefore was looked for with deep anxiety by his thousands of devoted friends. He had battled for the men and the principles of the Democratic party when those more timid shrank from the contest. When Stanton’s bastiles yawn ed for more victims, Hiestek Clvmbb stood up for the rights of the people, and as far us in his power, assisted to cheek the insolence and wickedness of bold, bad men. It was tit, then, it was right, that this bold and fearless champion of the rights of the people and Constitutional law, should be the standard-bearer in the present crisis of our history. Host emi nently is he qualified for the liigh posi tion of Governor of Pennsylvania. A man of acknowledged ability and patriot ism, he will bring to the discharge of the responsible trust a knowledge of State and National affairs such as few men in our Commonwealth possess. He I-? hone.it —that is admitted by ail his political op ponents who know him. No breath of slanderhas ever been whispered against Iris honor or integrity. As a Senator, he has been the acknowledged leader of his par ty ever since he had a seat in that honor able body. He will be elected —trium- phantly elected —and when he takes his place in the Executive Chamber, wo will have the affairs of State administered as they were when Francis It. Skunk was at the helm of State. I7p, then, Demo crats and Conservatives 1 up every man opposed to negro-equality and blind fa naticism 1 up all who believe that, our Union has been restored, and assist to swell the majority for the honest German of old Berks! Let us not only elect him, but elect him by a majority that will con vince disunionists and agitators that the people are not to be trifled with. Fall in to line, patriots, and lot your motto bo “ Clymer arid Victory 1” THIEVES**—FRA V IKS. “ THE LOYAL FRAFUS!

Tlio penple had Imped that with 1 1 11- end of llii‘ war, the organized system that “ loyal thieves” had adopted to enrich themselves at the expense of the Treii'ii ry, would be broken up. During active hostilities, stealing was recognized hy the administration; men were appointed to utliee and place, and eontraots were given them, for the express purpose of enabling them to fleece the Govermnen'l. The people had hoped, we repeat, that the end of the rebellion would not only bring peace and a restored Tnion, hut also a system of economy. These expeetalions have not been realized. That! Stevens tells us that the Union is dissolved, and stealing on a largo seale goes on as here tofore, President Johnson, as far as in his power, is making every effort to cor rect the evils complained of, but a Itmnp Congress is of the other way of thinking, and God knows what is to he the result. Here is another little bit of news. It has reference to “ bottled Ben “NewYohk, Feb. —Tho Express Mates that Cicti oral Butler has paid smith Bros., of Now Oi lcans, the SBU,OO‘J lu gold which they allayed ho abstract ed from their vaults, together with interest, all the costs and sheriil' s poundage, making an ag gregate of 5150 t 00U. “ Bottled Bon,” as our renders are aware, was in command at New Orleans for a few months. During this time lie added to his wealth some two millions of dollars. A brother who was with him, but who occupied no official position, also made a “pile” of a million or.so. Nearly all the wealthy people of New Orleans were robbed by the Butlers. Everything of value was shipped to Boston. The Smith' Brothers ■ (wealthy merchants/) had in their private safe 5,50,000 in gold. Ben got to hear of the treasure, ami he at once grabbed it. Suit was brought against the robber, and the result is stated above in the letter from New York. “Bottled Bon” has been compelled to disgorge, and the Smith Brothers receive their money back, with interest. But why is it that Ben is not sent to the penitentia ry? That is a question that many men are asking. Several hundred other suits are to be commenced against tiiis desper ate freebooter, and wu may hope, there fore, to see him properly punished. SuJINEB showsa disposition to abuse the American flag.

Those vehicles of mischief that arc now “opposing the Government,” appear sore ly perplexed and very much chagrined because the course of the President, in his efforts to thwart the schemes of Ste vens, Sumner, and other “traitors,” as Mr. Johnson calls them, meets the appro bation of Democrats. They affect to be very much puzzled, and remind us that we formerly spoke very disrespectfully of Andrew Johnson ; and they ask, with ap parent sincerity, how we can speak in his praise now? We can answer the ques tion in a few words. Andrew Johnson is pursuing a wise, patriotic course, and therefore we endorse and sustain him. Wo pursued the same course with Mi'. Lincoln, sustaining him when ho was right, (which was not often, for ho was nearly constantly controlled by the worst portion of the destructives,) and condemn ing him when ho was wrong. This is our position now. The destructives are surprised that we can praise a man that we formerly op posed so decidedly. Innocent souls 1 We believe CameronriF-ayj,ey and Cessna are now rccognhHyjyleaders in the Jacobin disunion iVnks. How long since is it that the un\a now calling themselves Re publicans spoke of Cameron as a robber, Forney as a consummate rascal, and Cessna as a dirty unprincipled dema gogue? These three beauties formerly acted with the Democratic party, and then they were stigmatized by the oppo sition in the terms we mention above. We remember very well that it was a habit with opposition papers to remind their readers that these three gentlemen controlled our-Conventions and nomi nated our candidates; and they appealed to the people—sometimes with success — to rebuke the party at the polls that had for its champions men of such desperate characters as Cameron, Forney and Cessna. Let our neighbor of the Herald take up hisfiles often or twelve years back, and read the articles to which we refer. Now these same editors ask how it is pos sible for.us to sustain Mr. Johnson after having abused ptm. We believe, however, that no Democrat ever stigmatized An drew Johnson a robber and rascal, or hinted that he deserved assassination ; we only opposed his political course, and denounced it. But wc must now be per mitted to ask the destructives a ques tion. How comes it that you now speak of Cameron, Forney, Cessna and others as “patriots,” when hut a few years ago yon denounced them as the very worst and most corrupt men in our State? Please answer!

Thin tinny of patching up a land' h> make a few men rieh at the expense of the many, is tin outrage that should not he tolerated. No country can long stand (his sort of monopoly—thin gathering, as if with a drag-net, the earnings and in dustry of the many into the bursting rollers of the few. The cry of “ protec tion'' is ti fraud and a cheat, resorted to hy greedy men who desire to rob the people. We have had high prices long enough, and too long—prices at once dis honest and infamous. We have protect ed tlie cotton lords long enough, let us now protect (lie people, who have sub mitted to robbery so patiently. teir Unless we misread the signs of the limes, there is a mighty - revulsion going on in 11 to public sentiment of the coun try. There have, been many well-mean ing men who have heretofore voted the Republican ticket, under the inmost im pression that they were voting to main tain tlie Union. Now their eyes are opened to the fact that I lie Republican party is a negro-equality party—that the leaders have determined that Sambo shall vote, that he shall sit.in tlie jury box, and hold ollieo, and enjoy all tlie privi leges of the while race. They have be come convinced that to etled their pur poses the leaders of the Republican party will go into open rebellion. They have it from (lie lips of tlie President himself that those men are disnnionists and trai tors ; and they arc making up their minds to give this treachery and infamy a fil ing rebuke at the next eleeiion. Thciv Js no probability «>f Stanton, speed Harlan resigning— i'hil. Jn'/uii-. r. We suppose not. If they were men of honor they would have resigned (lie very hour they found that llndr .sentiments did not accord with the view* of the Pres ident.

HISSES IX - THE COEOUEI) OAU.EBY." During (ho speech of Senator Hend ricks, in the U. S. Senate, a few days sinre, lie used this language: “lie holil that trio two races wore so diiTei’ont that IheyeiiKht not to compose one-political com munity.' He tjcUevcvl with Mv, Douglas and President Johnson that tills was a white man's iroverninenl. There was a yrent dent said ahont tile part taken hy the colored men in putting down tile rebellion.

[Ap plause in the white gallery, andhissesin lliocol ored poll lory, j" “Hisses in the colored gallery 1” AVho will say we arc not a progressive people? A set of buck negroes, most of them fed and supported in idleness by the Nation al negro hoarding house, throng the Sen ate galleries, to hiss honorable Senators who may chance to say a word in favor of white men ! What would Henry Clay think of this, could he rise from Ilia grave and take his old seat in the Senate ? Oh, how lie would scowl upon the fanatical and traitorous crow who encourage the negroes in their impudence. One look from his eagle eye, would cause the fa- natical Sumner to hide his head in shame, and drive the bloated Chandler froui the seat he disgraces. In a twinkling he would clear the galleries of the black rab ble, who congregate there daily to insult the people’s representatives, and with a shake of his long fore-finger point them to the door. Until recently no one dared to molest the Senate either by applause or hisses.— To take a seat in the cushioned and corn- fortable gallery, was a privilege accorded to well-bred hidiesnnd gentlemen. Loud demonstrations were not permitted nor attempted. B.nt now, under the reign of a debased, negro-eqtmlity, shoddy faction, the once proud American Senate is turn ed into a play-house, where demagogues fume and spout, and grinning negroes applaud or hiss. Little men-pigmies and sots—occupy the seats once occupied hy ripe statesmen and scholars, arid the gal- leries, instead of being filled with people of refinement and taste, are monopolized by lazy and worthless blacks, who crowd out the whites, and hiss through their thick lips when a Senator speaks of the valor and heroism of our white soldiers! How long will the people' put up with tiffs insanity, tiffs mockery and insult? — We have never, in our long editorial ca reer, advocated or countenanced brute force, but wo say now in all sincerity that should the President imitate tire conduct of Cromwell with the Long Parliament, (lie people would rally around and sus tain him. X'EW i:\CI.AM) EIHLANTIIKOET. Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, re cently declared that “the condition of the negro in the south, is worse to-day than it was when Lee surrendered." Xo doubt of it ; and it will be worse next year than it is now. Xew England radi calism has no sympathy with the negro's sufferings and interests. The black man asks for clothes to cover his half-nuked person, but X'ew England talks to him glibly about his equality before the law. The black man asks fur bread, and X'ew England gives him a stone. Her tender mercies to the black man have been cruel in the extreme, she lias murdered more lic.u-ands of the poor creatures, by star v..U'.nand misery—has separated more husbands and wives—lias scattered more little families far tt-under—than slavery did in all the year- of it- e.xi-tence. It is ai-urd fir northern people to undertake tie: government of a .’southern people in tin .'-'■ui.beni slat"-. The negro always v.a- treated with more eon-ideralion in tiie r-outh than in tlie North. Here lie is neglected and ill treated, there he was cared hr and protected. If the entire in t-re-ls of tlie colored race where remaml i- 1 to tlie several state-, where it properly belong-, there would be infinitely less -ullcring. vastly more productive labor, and more comfort, health and happiness among them than there is now. The rad ical gentlemen at Washington must eith er make up their minds to abandon the care of the negro to ids natural guardians, or they will see him perish from oil' the face of the land, under their foolish and destructive legislation. In confirmation of what we have said, we insert the fol lowing from tlie Memphis iTenn.i liul- Iclin : Negro graves are counted by the acre In ami annual lln.i cuy. When liberty first gathered them in its folds, they tiled too rapidly for grave diggers. ICneoUined they wore born from hovels and hospitals. Dike Do Solo, their uncolllned bodies found resting places in the bosom of the (Jreal Kiver. There is no register of births ami deaths. Few are born, and infants nearly all per ish. We are told that twelve hundred blacks were frozen to death on President*.* Island, while agents of “ civilization” were toiling to promote tiiclr intelligence. The thousands that were bur ied in a single trench at Ilelenashould have some memorial to their benefactors lifting Us form of spotless marble to the very mid hoatens. We should have “ their rights protected against all aggressors by national power.” Tell us, some sane man, who are these aggressors. The bureau is deemed t lie honelactor of the black race. It has paved wells in Columbus, Mississippi, with bones of negro Infants. Negro women, in pursuit of negro soldiers, abandon helpless children ami aged parents to famine ami death. If extinction ot the race be the work of charity and love, nev er was a scheme of benevolence so successful us that which has been practiced towards the blacks for the past three years. * * * Thus far, even* act of nominal benelieciice Ims been one of bar barity. The black population of these .Slates is a million less than it would have been without a war. Civilize, educate, clothe, and food tlie ne gro, and then talk abounds investiture with all the rights of citizenship, Jhn do not kill him with kindness, lie has borne enough for the present. JOr»“ The radical leaguers hereabout shave been in a state of great excitement, since the veto of their favorite negro boarding house bill. It fell upon them'like a wet blanket, chilling all the generous impul ses of their noble souls. The ringing of the Court House bell gave them all the headache, and stirred np all the bile in their systems. They pour out the vials of their wrath on the devoted heads of the unfortunate “ Copperheads," which, to say the least, is very ungenerous, as the “ Copperheads” haven’t anything to do with the light between the radicals and their President. If Andrew John son saw lit to kick the bottom out of the negro Ilureau, and if Sumner and Stevens fell through, and the balance of the par ty are tumbling after them hcadformost, they have no right to revile the poor “Copperheads.” Andrew Johnson is their President, not ours. lx Mr. Bancroft’s nicniorml oration on Mr. .Lincoln, ut Washington, lie alluded to the views! of the latter upon an impor tanUulijoel, thus: . in 18.77 ho avowed himself “not in favor of” what ho improperly called “negro citizenship.” for Urn (’on-dilution discriminates between citi zens and electors.
