We should like to publish the Report entire, but it is too extended for our columns. Wo may, however, as the political campaign progresses, lay before our readers extracts from it. .'Suffice it to say, tlic exposures brought to light by this Report are really frightfdl. The vil lains connected with the Bureau as its officers or agents, have been guilty of ev ery conceivable crime, from murder and at ion rape, to potty larceny. The po.or blacks arc nearly worked to death by those dev ils wearing tiro form of humanity, and •oeeive for pay the Government rations :hat were intended for the indigent and helpless. Nearly every officer connected with the Bureau has seized large tracts of land, and is engaged in the production of rice, cotton, tobacco, lumber, turpen- tine, tar, Ac. They require the negroes to work for them at starvation prices, and compel them to receive Government ra tions at exorbitant charges, for wages.— Tlie blacks have been whipped unmer cifully, tortured, and even murdered for the most trifling offense. Never in the worst days of slavery were such attroci- ies heard of. Indeed these Norther isters have committed crimes agains the poor defenceless blacks which no Southern master or overseer would have dared be guilty of. The Report states that the blacks implored Generals Steep max and Fn.i.KUTO.v to have the Bureau abolished. They say they never had it so hard before, and never were thus abu sed by their former masters. They, with one voice, ask to lie let alone. They do not wisli to become voters, lint they do want to work for themselves and thus supply the wants of their families. They have no confidence in the officers of tlie Bureau, and look upon them as heartless deceivers, swindlers and cheats. They want them away, so that they can go to work for their old masters, at liberal wa- The I'Teedmen's Bureau, then, it is ev ident to all, was organized and is kept up for the express purpose of enabling a set of New Knglami Yankees to speculate on the labor of the poor blacks, who are now enjoying the inestimable boon of free oni,” as Semneu would say. We are cginniiig lo think that Thau, Stevens was not far from the truth when he said in a recent speech, that ” shivery still ex ists in the Southern States." The slave. 1 —that portion of them who can work- H 50 I 50 H OO . IO 50 . 15 00 25 OO have merely been transferred from Soul eru to Northern masters, who are wor ing them harder than they ever worke before, and giving them no pay except rr lions at exorbitant charges, and these ra tions are stolen from the Government. No wonder, all New England howled when President Johnson .strangled the bill ex tending tlie ‘‘powers" mid enlarging the “inlluence" of the Kreedmcn’s Bureau. C'lirlMf, }\-un No wonder ho lias been denounced ever since by every rascal of Ids party. In run the present Bureau costs the Govern ment some twenty-two millions dollars a year; under (lie vetoed bill it would have cost, it was estimated, a hundred milieus a year! What a “ traitor" is An drew Johnson for putting Ids foot upon this darlingsehemeofthe “loyal thieves.’ How lie did spoil their calculations. In our next we will give our readers i few extracts from the report of t,enerais Steed.man and Eui.i.ehton. Wo have already published extracts from Gen. Grant's “ observations in the South." Dot our readers peruse these exposures, and we think they will agree witli us when we pronounce the ollleers connect ed with the Ercedmen’s Bureau the most unprincipled and heartless set of rascals that ever went unhung. At the head of those columns will he found the prospectus of the “Caucasi an," a Democratic Campaign paper, to he issued from this otlice and to be devoted to Hie interests of white labor and the preservation of the white man’s govern- ment. We desire to say to our Demo era tie friends that we are going to eon siderable expense in this new enterprise and Hint to place the “Caucasian' within tlie reach of every man who cai fetid, we have put the subscription price down to the lowest possible figure. Tlie success of the enterprise depends upon the interest taken in it by the party whose principles it Will advocate. We think it will not admit of doubt that if two or three thousand copies of this, paper arc scattered broadcast weekly among tile people of Cumberland County, it wil bring about a change of several bundle votes in our favor at the next election.- The circulation of Democratic Newspa papers among the masses is the most ef fectual method to swell our ranks, and we call upon tlio leading Democrats in this and the adjoining counties to see that every Democrat in their several town ships is supplied with this little oninpaigi: paper. There are hundreds of voters ii tin's county who do not take any paperir ail ; and it will be a criminal neglect i they are not at once supplied, when they can bo supplied at such a trilling cost. — We are gratified to learn that our friends arc organizing clubs in nearly every town ship in (lie county; and every one of tiio.se clubs can surely aflonl to subscribe for fifty or one hundred copies of the “ Caucasian'” for grntions distribu tion, Wo submit these facts to our mocratic friends, ft is for them to say, whether we shall be sustained. We in- tend to do our part by making the “ Cat Cakian” ono of tiie spiciest and mos efllcient campaign papers over issued ii Ibis Stale. Whether it will have the ehvu lation which ils merits and the ini parlance of (he coming contest deni for it, will depend solely upon the Do cracy of Cumberland and the adjoining Counties. •Startling Exposures. IVH.I. lot: MO IT 7 THE EATE BEPIIIIUCAX PAKTT The Republican party is dead, licyui curat in pace. Its dying struggles were distressingly spasmodic. Drs. Silmneb, Stevens and Forney, were assidious in their attentions upon the dying monster, and one after another administered ne gro-equality and anti-Union pills, in the hope that a change for the bettor would be the result. But no—the burly heap of corruption continued to grow worse, and so unpleasant and revolting was its ap pearance that every honest man felt a strong inclination to give it a kick, and thus help it on to its dissolution. First the President of the United States ran against it, and, without apology, gave it a hearty punch in the ribs, which so sick ened it, that it omitted from its capacious maw about, a ton of pickings and green backs that it had stolen from Uncle Sam, and swallowed to prevent detection. — Then Senators Cowan, Dooeittee, and others who had befriended it before they discovered its true character, clubbed it over (lie head most unmercifully. Again, dl tire members of the President’s cabi ict, with Seward at their head, as saulted this beast of Disunion, kicking uid cuffing it, and laughing at the pain they caused it. Finally Secretary St.vn ton tired a whole volley of shot and shell into its fostering hide, and this finished it. It tottered, and with a groan against the Union (if our fathers, turned up the dirty whites of its eyes, and fell into the arms of its Weeping nurses. Thus died that monster of sin and ini quity, the Republican-disunion party.— We cannot and will not say that all Us friends were calculating peculators, ’ but we can say, with truth, that all pecula tors were its friends. The mourners at its deatli wore those who had betrayed every man and party that had ever trust ed them, and now that their political power is gone, they/ctV likeoutcasts, and look like- men who had accumulated wealth by bartering tlie life-blood of their countrymen, and sporting with the tears of widows and orphans. ANOTHER VETO. Andrew Johnson has-again entitled himself to the thanks of his fellow citi zens. He has returned the Colorado bill to the Senate without his approval, thus preventing the consummation of a piece of unblushing villiany by which a bogus State, containing almost but2o,ooo or 30,- 000 inhabitants was to be admitted to the Union and placed upon a par with New York and Pennsylvania. The reasons given by the President for his veto are clear, cogent and unanswerable, and tlie most striking of all of them is the idea that eleven States, with many millions of white population, are excluded from rep resentation, while the trilling population of 30,000, in some other latitude, shall have a power in one branch of Congress equal to a State having 3,000,000 of white leoplo. The reason for thus hurrying Colorado nto the Union—with hut one fourth the number of inhabitants required for repre sentation in the lower House of Congress, was to secure two radical Senators and a radical Representative, to vote against the President’s policy of restoration. This bill was hut another addition to the long catalogue of outrages perpetrated upon the American people by those radical Rumpers, to retain power in their hands; and President Johnson deserves the hast- ig gratitude of his fellow citizens for his last effort to stem tho title of absolutism which is sweeping over the country and •submerging all the old landmarks of our political system. Every day anti hour must strengthen the faith of tho people in the wisdom, patriotism anil unswerving firmness of their chief magistrate. AKOLITION PHILANTHROPY The following bit of information « tears in a Boston paper, which wo co; or the benefit of our Abolition philn liropists “John n.-vvrs, an overseer in the Knglti Cotton Mills in Taunton, Massachusetts, has been lined leu dollars anti costs, and held to ball tu one hundred dollars to keep the peace, for Hogging a female operative, twelve years old, with a piece of belt doubled, i >nu o( the girl’s eyes was seri ously Injured. This, remarks the Af/r, is not news from Georgia or Mississippi. It is not an item invented by one or the roving correspon dents of the Tribune to illustrate the bru tality of the .Southern heart. It has no place, our word for it, in Mr. scrap book. As long as John Davis wields his “double belt” in the sacred vicinity of the “hub,” and coniines his assaults and batteries to little white girls, the Senate of the United Slates will be ■spared the tedious classic parallel's with which the Senator from Massachusetts would illustrate his cruelty if he lived in Georgia and punched the heads of young freedmen. The Tributu gets no letters from Taunton. There is no prying scrib- bler to “ molest the ancient solitary rei; of the whip in that sweet village groans of the young operatives as the long resounding lash of the “ boss” de scends on their backs, fail to find any echo among the benevolent ladies of •strong minds and sharp features who are writing catechisms for the Carolina blacks, and the lank and long haired philanthro pists who refuse to be comforted because their negro brethren have no votes. BST - Thirteen of the most prominent anil respectable Democrats of the town of Somerset, 11 desirous,” as they'say, "of having a Democratic candidate for Con gress who can be relied upon when ques tions involving fundamental principles arise,” publish a card in the Somerset , Democrat , presenting the name of J. Mc- Dowol Sharpe, Esq., of Franklin, to the Democrats of the district as a suitable candidate and urging the Democrats of Somerset county to send delegates who are favorable to ids nomination. The Democrat endorses the movement, and very justly pronounces Mr. Bharpe “one of the ablest lawyers in the State, a relia ble Democrat and an honest and influen tial man.” The friends and acquaintan ces of Mr. Sharpe, over this entire State, would rejoice to see him brought out for Congress. Mo stronger or more popular candidate could be found in the Sixteenth district; nor is there another who would make a more high-toned, consistent and able representative. His impregnable logic and thrilling eloquence would be quite a treat in tlie Halls o.f Congress in these degenerate days. Wkndei.e Phiemi’K, theold Abolition ist and repndiator of the National debt, is likely to be sent to Congress from Massa chusetts, GREAT REPUBLICAN DEMONSTRATION The President Sustained. The largest political demonstration that \s been held in Philadelphia for the last two years, assembled at the Academy of Music, on Saturday evening last. It was participated in by Republicans alone, Democrats remaining aloof ns spectators. They were not dis-Uuion Republicans, however, of the Sumner-Stevens school, but Union men, who sustain the Presi dent’s policy. The immense ediflee, the report says, was crowed to overflowing, and thousands were outside, unable to gain admittance. The occasion for the meeting was lire inauguration of the “Na tional Union Johnson Club.” Col. Jo seph R. Flanigan, editor of the aVcics, the old Republican organ, was Chairman of the Committee on Arrangements ; and on his motion, Gen. Henrv .Simons was called to the chair. .Speeches were made by Senators Doolittle, of Wisconsin, Cowan of Pa., and Norton of Minnesota. The enthusiasm was unbounded ; the dis unionists were handled without gloves, and the President's policy endorsed with a yell of applause. During his speech, Mr. Cowan, by authority, stated that the Cabinet oftho President was aunit. They all yield a hearty support to Mr. John son's policy, and none more heartily than .Secretary Stanton. He said that he spoke by authority too, when he stated ■ that Generals Ghant, Sherman, Meade, Hancock, Crawford, Sheridan and Coulter are with the President heartily ami openly. The officers of the navy, said Mr, Cowan, “ are with the President to a man.” “ What officer)) are against the President ?" a.%kcd Mr. Cowan. “ Ben. Butler,Sekiel, Scuure !” (deaf- ening groans and hisses.”) This meeting is an indication of what maw ho the result of the vote of Philadel phia on the 9th of October. That city will be redeemed, and disunionista will be put down by an indignant people. — Steady, all along the lino, Democrats and Conservatives. The day ofourdelivorancc is at hand. g-A" When Andrew Johnson first be- ‘ came President, the Disunionista declared j that for some wise and good purpose Prov ideiioo had removed his predecessor, and ; called h m totheLxecutive chair. Since, however, his course has not proven to be : in consonance with their blood-thirsty, plundering anticipations. Andrew John-' son is only President by accident. As a sample of the many speeches and sermons which were delivered throughout the country, on the death of Abraham Lin coln, in which the radicals modestly claimed exclusive proprietorship in every Providential occurrence, we quote a few sentences from a sermon preached by one Rev. Crane, in Hartford. It reads strange ly in the light of subsequent events. The Rev. gentlemen said: “ Hut it Is possible, it Is even more limn possible Hint Just these qualities unfitted him for tho final settlement at tlusconliict. There was danger that lie would subordinate his executive functions to ills personal sympathies; that he would forget that and had ptaml the sword of n'MlllUi ve ill-slice in his hands to !w used; that lie would feel that the traitors had sull'erod enough already, and needed no fnrt iter punishment; that he would even par don Itavis and Stephens, and Johnson and Lee, if they should come Into his power. Ho was urn ting In that direction, and most of us were drif ting with him. * * • If he was In danger of this mistake, then Ids work was done, and therefore God translated him, having so nobly done, to glo ry, lint Andrew Johnson, a man of nerve, has find his heart under tho Iron heclof this rebellion. He uppreeiales treason. His sense of justice js paramount to his louder sensibilities. Ho holds a double-edged and keen-edged sword, which reaches to the southermost point of Florida.— Therefore I believe that God raised him up to brine this rebellion to the consummation of just, retribution. It is not private revenge that he will wreak but the vengeance of Hod, whoso an nointed minister hols. And so God has given him to the nation when the. nation needed him.— And we will lift our reverent eyes to heaven to day,and ga/.lng through our tears, say, Ihou doesi all things well.’ * •• * -the nation Mill understand ere long that the dark Providence of last F’riday night was a merciful Providence.— Andrew Johnson is the Joshua - whom God has appointed to consummate the work which our dead Moses so nobly commenced. Xow it is rather a remarkable fact that in all the “ loyal” pulpits of the land there is to-tlny scarcely a single prayer of fered up in behalf of tills Joshua who was to load'the nation to its land of prom ise. As soon as Andrew Johnson showed to the world that lie was no blood-hound, the ‘'loyal” preachers quit praying for him. They refuse to take anything in their sacred hands which lias not the smell of blood on it. What a gloriously consistent record (hey are making for , themselves! B®* The New York Times , a loyal pa per, says “ the ago of bastilcs and guillo tines has passed, but there is a disposi tion in Congress as infatuated as that which caused France to weep tears of blood. The majority of the House of Representatives has invested a Commit tee of Fifteen with powers which, under the guhlance of a jacobin chairman, are becoming as odious as any triumvirate created by despotism." An irresponsible committee of malignant fanatics govern Congress and the country, and the Radi cal organs are laboring to perpetuate their power. Can wise legislation be expected at the hands of such demagogues? The New York Times says of the production of the Reconstruction Commit tee : *' Asu plan ot pmnilcullon and reconstruction, the whole thing is worse than u burlosrinc. It might he styled a farce, were the country not in tho midst of a very serious drama. Its proper designation would be “ a plan to prolong Indeti nltcly the exclusion of the South from Congress, by imposing conditions to which the Southern people never will submit.'’ This being the obvi ous scope and tendency of the proposition, we are hound lo assume that it clearly rcllects the settled purpose of the committee." And thereupon, Mr. Kaymond, of the Times, voted for it. FitKK Stkecii. —The Chicago Tribune speaks of President Johnson ns “ this boggar-on-horsebnek President." If a Democratic paper had used such language when Lincoln was kicking up his heels and uttering jokes in the Presi dential chair, the " little boll at Seward’s rigid hand” would have stopped at once. Free speech was not tolerated until after ho was “ Providentially” taken to heav en from Ford’s theatre, so that now, with “a man of Ood’schoice” in thechairthese ranting disunionists may talk and write without fear. Tin-; 'Washington correspondent of the Detroit Free Frees says that lugersoll, Disunionist, of Illinois, was drunk when lie made his abusive speech on President Johnson. AATiat an immensity of black guardism poor whiskey has to father! Henrv AY aud Beecher compares the Disunionists in Congress to monkeys in a coeoanut tree—pelting the President at a safe distance. That’s hard on (be mon kies. On, what a howl is going up from Dis union throats as the Government flesh pots vanish from their sight and clutch es! THE SINGLE ISSUE The question is every day narrowing ■itself down to the support of the President or Congress. Those who desire negro suf frage, admire Stevens and I>orney, deny the Southern States the right of represen tation whilst they are paying taxes and. boiiig legislated for, and who think Con gressright in accomplishing the disunion of on r great con federncy by keeping South ern States out of the Union, are for Geary for Governor. Those who are for Presi dent Johnson's wise reconstruction pol icy— w ho think that the Southern States neverwereout oftheUnion, because they had no right to go out—that now, since peace is restored, and loyal men elected and sent to Congress from these States, when they have taken the proper' oath, should be admitted and participate in the legislation which concerns their people— and the people of every State should de cide for itself as to negro suffrage, and not Congress—are friends of President John son, and will vote for Hiester Olymer for Governor. There is really ho issue about Republicanism or Democracy. It is the simple question of support of tile Presi dent or Congress.. Mr. Clymer represents the one, and Geary the other. Does the conservative Abolitionist or Republican say “how can 1 vote for a Democrat ■?” In reply we say, as we said above, that the interests at stake are too momentous to talk about party names. It is the time for patriotism and devotion to the country. Besides, let us say this—if you vote to sus tain the President, you vote for Clymeii, who, nt present a Democrat, was once a Whig. If you vote for Congress, you vote for Geary, who claims and boasts that he has been a “ life long Democrat,” Does that suit you better ? If then your choice is for one of two “Democrats,” surely, if you favor tho President’s policy, and are devoted to the country, the path of duty is clear. Thankful fob Small Favous. —The Radicals or Disunionists are getting to be very thankful for very small favors. They burn powder and make much noise over carrying Connecticut,by a few hun dred votes, when, as the figures furnished by the Sacramento Union, show Lincoln had 17,000 majority in 1804, and Bucking ham, the Republican candidate for Gov ernor, something over. 11,000 in 1805. This is something to he very jubilant over, to bo sure. If they run their machine at that rate in Connecticut, for another year, their flags will have need of deep mourning for the next election. There must have been a terrible contest in the State this year, and the query is, where did the 13,000 more votes polled this year than last, come from? We fearour friends in Connecticut are the victims of a big swindle. But anyhow, they have made a glorious fight, and may congratulate themselves thatanotherbattlebrings them victory. The total vote this year is 87,- 332, that of last was only 73,717. Connecticut. —It is reported that three Republican members of the Connecticut State Senate have voted against going into joint convention for the purpose of elect ing a United States Senator in place of Mr. Foster. Their votes give the opposi tion a majority, and if adhered to will pre vent an election by the present Legisla ture. The report creates considerable ex citement among the radical members of Congress, who charge thatExeoutive in fluence is nr work in that quarter. The better impression is that it is an effort on file part of Senator Foster’s friends to secure his re-election, or else defeat his competitor. Tun disunionists are terribly annoyed at the course pursued by Senator Cowan. Why do they put such men into position ? There is Johnson, Cowan, Doowttmo, Dixon, Seward, Wei-les, and a host of others, in and out of tho Cabinet and Congress who are all the same. Notwith standing their anger at these men, they now are supporting a man for Governor, who, less than a year ago declared him self a “ Democrat without prefix or affix.” The Democrats do not want Geary be cause ho is not fit for Governor, and be cause, like a weather-cook, he always shapes himself to the wind, without much regard to principle. Government Losses by Government Speculators. —Some of the New York papers have a dispatch from Washington stating that the Government will lose heavily by the operations of speculators in cotton at Memphis, Tenu. Last sum mer §400,000 in Government funds were placed in the hands of a certain party, which were used up in the purchase of cotton. Tho cotton was sent forth for sale, and before the Government realized anything at all from tho transaction, the consignees failed and the Government lost the whole amount. —principal as well as prospective profits. The Case of Mb. Davis. —It is report ed upon good authority, says the Wash ington correspondent of the New York Times , that the judiciary committee have come to the conclusion that the evidence produced before them does not warrant the charge that Jefferson Davis is guilty of complicity in the assassination of Mr. Lincoln. How to Determine Where AVatbh is. —At a recent meeting of the American Farmer’s club, a member related his ex perience in this matter as follows : An Irishman in his employment, in order to ascertain where he ought to dig to obtain water soonest, got a stone and buried it over night in the ground, next to the hardpan. In the morning he found it quite moist, but not sufficiently to suit tiis fancy. Next night he tried it in an-,, other spot and it was found very wet on the following morning.” “ There,” said Patrick, “ you will find water not many feet deep, and plenty of it.” Sureenough, in a few days digging, Patrick confirmed his prediction ; notwithstanding the jeers of the workmen, finding a vein which filled the welltooverilowing, and render ed it exceedingly difficult to bail out the water so as to stone it. The philosophy of the operation seems to be that, as great evaporation takes place from the surface' of the earth during the night, the water rises up from the depths below to supply the loss, and accumulates in the vicinity of the stone, often quite a puddle. A notice has been issued from the Comptroller of the Currency to the note holders of the Venango National Bank, of Franklin, Pa. and the Merchants National Bank, of Washington, D. G., to forward the bills of these institutions to the Treas ury for redemption. Gov.
