Senator HoollttU* declared in the Hump
Senate lately, and was not contradicted,
that when Ah erl S. lirowu withdrew
from the Federal Senate to join the re
bellion, ” Fdwin M. Stanton met him ■
outside iho duOr and urged him to go
on ills course, wlMiing him MJudspeed,’
ami saying he was right.” This is the
same Stanton who has just been thrift
back into the war oJKce by tin* Radical
leaders. It was tin- encouragement
which he, Joe iiolt, John A. Logan,
and other now prominent Radical.-,
gave to the Southern h-nder.-'that deter
mined the luttor to go into Mreer—ion, yvt
they are now the pet.-, and champions of I
Radical ‘‘loyally.” Out on such crea
tures 1 It is clearly evident that they
have always hated the old Union and
its t’onstitution, and when they found
that tiie war which they helped to .-tart
would not destroy the Government,
they set themselves (o work to do j| mi
dorhandedly hy piling up a mountain
of debt and hy legislating “ outside the
Constitution.” How is it pos-iblo to
honor .-noli persons?
Tub I'Jiilsult")pliii\ S’u,ni.ij vwnwri/.f,
mi original Grant paper, in in«jf of
Crji. Grant, Kay.-? tbal lu* has “ forfeited
ail claim to respect as a gentleman, or
confidence as;i soldier,” jiml tlial “lie
has suhcrvd his Jusf tor o/iiro to over
ride Ilia manhood,” ami furthermore
says, “it candidate ly/io commences ids
career in deceit ivlli not fail to liml
shame, if nothing: worse, ill (ho end.”
M. it. Lowiiv, tlie rutiled sliivt Sen
ator from the Uric district, says that Ida
party (the Radical*) will be compelled
to nunflnatc Grant for President, In or
der to get n “ strengthening plaster,
nerve and bone liniment and green
goggles” for tlie weak-kneed, bow
backed and sunken-eyed Republi
cans.” Morrow know* wind's what.
Thumb are more outrages of every
sort perpetrated in Tennessee than in all
the other tenßoutbcrn States. Reason—

A grout change is going on in (he j
minds of the people. The outrages, uiui
pations ami treason of the Hump Con
gress is opening Iho eyes of thousands
of honest Republicans, all over the coun
try. .Wo might lili the four pages of
our paper every week with articles from
leading Republican paper- declaiming 1
in eloquent and patriotic term.- ngnin.-t
the insine doings of the Hump. This is
a good indication—a how of promise—
for nothing but an uprising of men of aU
i parlies can arrest the conspirators in
their career of crime. The Republican
paper.- that have spoken out against
I Congros.-, are, wo are glad to say, the
1 leading Journals of their party. Among

Wk give the following article from
the Richmond J'Jufjnircr a> illustrating
the need of a Freeilnnm’s Hureauat {tie

one of'ten thousand similar ones, of dai
ly occurrence in that section ;
A gentleman from one ot the neigh
boring counties, who desired to obtain
a number of able-bodied negro laborers
for hi* plantation, vUited Richmond to
procure them, having heard that there
wore hundred* ot unemployed black-;
lounging idly about the city. Tlu*
mon.ing after his arrival he was direc
ted 100m 1 of the localities where large
nnantUie* of bread and sonp are daily
distributed by the Freedmen’* Rureaii.
He found a ragged, hungry horde of
nearly five hundred persons' as-emhled
to receive their usual supplie-' of food.
To his astonishment, Ihe-e appTieants
for soup and bread were not all women
and children. Ileeminted one hundred
and eighty aMe-bodied negro men, ca
pable of performing every variety of
farm labor. There they were with ev
ery conceivable variety of w-sel, wait
ing hours to hi* led hy the Rureaii. To
many of these hulking idler.- he o/h-red
the liighe-t wage.-paid to agricultural
laborers, and abundant rations of good,
wholesome food, litif tin// a(f

Allison v*. (Jcnr.v
Hon. Joseph Allison is President Judge
uf the Criminal Courts of Philadelphia,
and we presume our readers are aware that
Hans Geary is Governor (so called) of
Pennsylvania. "Well, Hans, in his recent
nie—aire, in which he dabbled a little in
everything, retleeted somewhat upofi the
.1 udm s of the Criminal Counsel the ’*( *ity
..f ikoiheilr 1..0v” lor not eon-ulting
11 iiii il’lui'-ion of sentence.-of
1 -eveial pri-oners, with which he had
I nothing to do. In his charge to the
Grand Jury, on Thursday, Judge Allison,
hy the way a deeply-dyed Radical, made
a Various on-laughl cm Hans, telling him
to mind his own business, in a decent
ami genteel manner-aid that ho lied, and
ad vising him if he wishes to measure le
gal sw.mf- (odo-o with (hem before the
Supreme Court. We can only find mom
for the following extracts, hut they show
(he animus of the whole charge:
That which we except to is the manner
in which the Governor ha- -ought to in
termeddle with a coordinate department
of thegoveriimcii t of Hu State, which has
the highc.-l authority (or t he e.\erei-e of
it-, power.-and for the perlormanee of its

act.-, a- the head of I he Kxeculive power of
the Commonwealth, over that hy which
tlic Judge- hold thclroilice.aml hy which
thy perform the dune- which belong to
it.” . ....
We feel that we have additional cause of
complaint, in the fact that the Governor
ha- mi-stated the enu.-e a- he knew it to
osi-t, in that he omitted all mention of
that m ideh \\ as n.o-l material : that upon

Tho-a* who conic after us—yes, even
.men now far advanced in years, will
look hack upon this time of negro rmul
nc.-s and color blindness with horror and
-hunm I—will wonderwhat folly and ig
norance led the American people to sub
, mil ihemselves, the bond-slaves of taxa
! tlon and fanaticism, lliat thereby a few
millions of blacks might Vie made their
ei[ualsand partners in the administra
tion of Ur* Kcderai and State affairs.—
Meanwhile however, the mongrcUtos go
on from step to step in the downward
“ progrcs>” of Radicalism, and manifest
the greatest delight over each now and
degrading concession made to planta
tion chattels by their Rump allies. The
Anti-Slavery Standard under the cap
tion, “The Negro in Office,*’says :
“ We are glad to observe an increasing
inclination among the colored men of the
; South to claim a share in the future
I management of public affairs. We no
-1 tieelhat I 'orriditts Harris, a colored shoe
maker, has been proposed us a candidate
tor Mayor of Richmond, Va. Three
blacks and two whites have been propos
ed for the Common Council. This isos
it should he. We trust that they will bo
deeded. The colored people of the South,
with a small margin of the whites, are
our faithful and trustworthy allies.”
Bkcacsk tho people of Montana last
fall voted to restrict thosuffrage to white
men, the Hump Congress has declared
that Montana shall not be admitted into
the Vnion as a State until the niggers
shall bo allowed to vote. From this it
isevidenf that whilst that miserable fac
tion of infernals dominate in Congress no
Slate organized upon a constitutional
basis, and hence likely to elect Demo
cratic Senators and a majority of Demo
cratic Representatives, will be allowed
to oonio into the Union. When party
spirit is carried to such an extreme it is
only fair to predict that either the Radi
cal party or thoGovornment will he de
stroyed. A Government cannot long he
perpetuated by perpetrating such out
rages against the rights of the people.
l-'i.oi:nxov, one of the Mississippi
black and tanists, who is now prepared
to go any lengbtb in favor of negro su
premacy and white disfranchisement,
was formerly tlie most brutal of
slave masters. During the war lie sent
his slaves to Georgia, for safety, decora
ted with iron collars, chains and shack
les, to the horror of tlio very rebels
whom lie now denounces. This is mere
ly a sanipioof “Soutlieru Union men”
otherwise Radicals, and there is scarcely
a Radical leader there or in tlie North
whose brutality is loss intense.
The State Guard, radical, justly asks
why both Jioases of tile Legislature
siioijid not he furnished with station
ery by contract to (lie lowest bidder?
And it further adds, that thousands of
dollars could lie saved to tlio Slate ouch
session, if such a system wore In opera
tion. This is true to tlio letter. But
“ why” is tliis not dono ? Wo will tell
yon ; because particular favorites could
not then lie served. This Is wliaf’s the
matter.
UNION PACIFIC UAIMIOAD ROXM
We have several times stated, upon
t!ie strength of representations from the
olUcors of the Company, that the price
of the Union Pacific Rail road First Mor
tgage Ronds would be advanced at an
early day* It is a-.w announced that
so rapid has been the sale of those
bunds, and so great the demand for
.them, that on the .‘list of January the
price was advanced from i)!) to 9-j cents
on the dollar. Ten million dollars of
these bonds have been sold already, and
so active was the demand that five mil
lions more would probably have been
sold during the first week of February
if the price had been permitted to re
main at 90. Those purchasers who heed
ed the advice to buy at the lowest fig
ures while they could, can now congratu
late themselves upon the handsome ad
vance already realized. The Company
has a largo surplus of cash on hand for
the vigorous prosecution of its work,
and its financial condition is entirely
satisfactory to all concerned.

The House on Monday originated an

authorizing the so-called Reconstruction

The Senate has been tho scene of an
animated and able debate, during tho
past ten days, on tho military dictator
ship bill. Senator Doolittle opened live
in opposition to the bill and made one of
the ablest speeches of his life. Ho warn
ed tho Radical Senators of tho dangers
they were bringing upon themselves, and
burst into tho following eloquent passage:
'* Sir, there are times when public opin
ion ia like a placid stream gently llowiiig
within its banks, when slight obstacles
may for a time arrest, or change, or di
vert its course. Then it may be tbe voice
of the people is the voice of politicians,
the voice of the people is the will of a
part3 f . But there are other times, when
the heavens are overcast, the rains have
descended, and the Hoods have come,
that its majestic current rolls an emblem
of wrath and power; when resistance mad
dens its fury and increases its strength.
Theuil overllows its banks. The bar
riers of parly caucuses and politicians
are all swept away, and become ineie
iloodwood on the surface of the troubled
waters. The voice of the people then is
no longer the voice of the politicians;
then it is that the voice of tho people is
the voice of God.”
Senators Hendricks and Buckalew al-
so made telling speeches against this last
iniquity. In fact the Rads liavo boon
terribly worsted in the tight, although
they have brought out their heaviest
guns—Trumbull and Morton.
A stiff breeze has been stirred up in
both Houses, by the presentation of tho
action of Jhe Ohio Legislature, repeal
ing the ratification of the fourteenth
amendment. The Radicals declare that
after a Slate has ratified an amendment
to the Constitution it lias no power to
withdraw that ratification ; but the beat
authorities contend that so long as tho

a part of the Constitution, any State cun
withdraw Its ratification. It will bo a

AsnaixoMicAii. —Mars, “the (lory son
of war,’’ and Venus, goddess of beauty,
have been tarrying on an extensive tlir
tation in (he Western sky, in tbeduskof
the evening, for some time past. Like
many of her sex, we regret to say, Venus
is given to running after gilt bullous.—
Whether her mnthor'knew she was out,
behaving so very impioporly in the eyes
of the whole world, we are not informed.
Some folks pretend that Venus never
had a mother— in which ease she had
1 * no one to love, none to caTess,” and
the old holy very likely knew nothing
about her being out; others maintain that
she was born of the foam of the sea, and
if this ho true, she Is no doubt something
of a meerschaum. An old chap called
Ovid, who pretends that he knows nil
ibmu/t, tells us that “ Venus loved* Mars,
although with unrequited a/lbction.” She
once had a HirlaUou with a young chap
by the name of Adonis, but he dually
made her a present of a large sized mit
ten, and she then took after Mars. What
the'.rcsuU of the interview was on Friday
evening last, we were at too great a dis
tance to learn ; but Venus started off in
a “ hull',” and may bp seen every even
ing, wending her way up the western
sky', while Mars stands alone; doubtless
humming " wc met and loved and part
ed.” Tf those old Greek “blowers” tell
us the truth, Venus was once lawfully
married to a low fellow named Vulcan,
and we advise the old chap to be looking
after the peace of his household. So long
as “ the old woman” keeps running af
ter fellows like Mars, she'll do no good.
Church Refitted, —The old Brick
Church (Union) at Boiling Springs, lias
Just been fitted' up in a very tasty and
modern stylo by the Messrs Alii, and by
the aid of the community the inside has
been entirely remodelled; it is now n
beautiful edifice, an ornament to (he
village, and a very comfortable and in
viting place of worship. AH are cordial
ly solicited to attend public service.—
The community will not soon forget the
favor conferred upon them by the pro
prietors. It has long been peaceably oc
cupied as a place of worship by the vari
ous Christian denominations, may it thus
long continue, and may Die blessing of
Heaven rest upon all who contribute to
wards the good cause.
Oaptcked.—John Ruggles, a young ;

by Harrisburg police ofllcers in that city
on Thursday Just. Ho was at once
brought to our town, and is now n. board

young Buggies is guilty of tho crime

well as himself, that lie may bo able to
establish his innocence.

And nothing is so beautiful ns a pioti uo

Prostrating Weakness, Disinclination for
.Society, Mental Despondency, etc., are
the rule rather than the exception wiip

the length and breadth of the land.
