•• MAKING TRCtKIM ODIOUS.”
The confirmation of the ex-rebel Gen
eral Longstreet as Collector at New Or- j
leans, has emboldened U. S., and' on ,
Monday of last week ho nominated to .
the Senate another “bloody handed
traitor,” Col. Crow, to be Governor of
New .Mexico. The Senate Committee
on Territories, however, refused to rec ■
ommend the confirmation of the ex-re
bel Coion»l, and adopted a resolution,
requesting U. S. to withdraw the nom
ination. At last account's the President
had refused to do this, and we suppose
a contest for and njainst his nomina
tion will take place in the Senate.
HadsPresident Johnson appointed to
lucrative positions such distinguished
rebel officers us Longsireet and Crow,
what a ho.vl would have been beard in
the Radical kennel? How his enemies
would have pointed to the fact as evi
dence that he sympathized with
“bloody-handed traitors?” liut yet
Grant can do these things with impuni
ty, and wo hear but little complaint
from “ trooly h-il” Radicals who would
have censured Mr. Johnson had he done
the same thing. Consistency, however,
h not in the Radical vocabulary. The
more vascillating a man is. the better
qualified is he to hold position in the
Radical ranks. Chamelcon-like, he
must be able to show all colors as oft»n
ns tile welfare of his rollon party de
mands it. Therefore Grant can appoint
rebels to office and receive commenda
tion from those who would have consid
ered it treason in Johnson to have thus
transgressed. Such is Radical consist
ency and honesty.
The Democratic stale Convention.
In fixing upon Wednesday, the Hth
of July, as the day for holding the Dem
ocratic State Convention, we think the
State Central.Coaumittee acted wisely.
By that time the Radical candidates
■will have been selected, and their plat
form of principles laid before the peo
ple of Pennsylvania. We shall (hen he
able to begin ourcampaign with a clear
appreciation.of the work set before us.
Two Important offices are to be filled.—
The penpie will be called upon to elect
a Governor to administer the laws of
the State, and a Judge of the Supreme
court to interpret them. That the Dem- 1
oeraev of PennayWtmia can win in the
coming contest we have not a doubt.—
If they poll their full vote their candi
dates will undoubtedly be elected. The
Radicals will not be able to do nearly
so well as they did last fall. Thousands
who voted with them at the last State
election and afterwards for Grunt, are
dissatisfied and disgusted. If the Dem
ocracy put forward popular candidates,
men with an unexceptional record, they
can not he defeat' d. It is to be hoped
that wisdom and moderation will pre
vail at the Convention, and the entire
field will be calmly surveyed hy the
delegates, and no mere personal prefer
ences or narrow views permitted to in
t Tfere with our prospects of success—
We can only fail to win hy making
some serious blunder, \\ edo not ap
prehend that any thing ol the kind wdl
occur, but a word of c iulb>n may nut be
regarded as out of place iu a matter ol
so great moment.
The Philadelphia Post, the sprightli
eat Radical newspaper in the State has
been lining its best to induce the Radi
cal majority of the Legislature to act
with some show of decency. Sometime
ago it puNished a very vigorous article
entitled ‘‘Shall the Legislature kill the
Republican party V and only a day or
two ago it bad an able editorial under
the somewhat startling heading “ Shall
the Legislature lie Abolished?” The
Post seems to he convinced that either
the Hepuhlican party or the Pennsyl
vania Legislature must cense to exist.—
In imr opinion Die death of the Repub
lican party would affect the desired pur
pose. With an old faslhoned Demo-
cratic triumph, we might look for a re
turn of that honesty and economy which
it is certain we can never have undei
Radical rule.
Remejibeh (hat every Radical mem
ber of the legislature except one. voted
for the XVth Amendment forcing Ne
gro (suffrage upon the people of Penn
s\ Ivania without their consent. Every
Democrat voted against it. Nowthe is
sue is made up. It can’t be dodged any
longer. It roust be met. The Demo
cratic party goes into the campaign ad
vocating the election of a legislature
which will repehl Die action of the pres
ent one. The Radical party asks the
people to elect a legislature which will
sustain the treuchury and foul-dealing
of the body which now misrepresents
thepeopleof the State. Let every man,
especially every Democrat, lay tills
plain issue before his neighbor and see
that he joins the column of REPEAL!
A well-known Western Radical
journal says that “ a whole herd of of
fice beggars have returned from Wash
ington with faces as long as hogs’ snouts.
One of them swore that Johnson’s Ad
ministration could yet he considered re
spectable in comparison with Grant's.
Another was furious at Colfax, because
he hadn’t recognized him, although be
fore the election he had called him his
best friend. A third cursed the Yan
kees because they had gobbled up the
. rich things, and left nothing but crusts
and crumbs for the Western men.” And
so on through the whole gamut of pa
triotic disappointment. Thespcctacle of
«o much human suffering is truly cad to
behold.
Neoro Officials.—Two out of five
Justices of the Peace, just appointed In
Washington City, are negroes. B. F.
Jouhert, tt negro, tins been appointed
Assessor of Internal Revenue for the
• F rst District of Louisiana, and C. .'I.
Welder,-another negro, has been made
Postmaster at Uclumbin, South Caroli
'na. There can be no pretense tliatcmn
pntent white mm could not have been
found to fill all these offices. A gallant
white Union soldier, who fought
through the whole war, was an applicant
for the Columbia po-totiice. Negroes
■were chosen because the Radicals are
determined Jo enforce the fanatical
ideas of the two races.

A. K. Rheem, P. M.—The long ago
ny is over. Mr. A. K. Kheem, one of
the editors of the Herald , received his
commission as Postmaster of Cai lisle,
on Tuesday. Quite a number of “ troo
ly loil” gentlemen of our town had cx
pressed a desire to accept this posi
tion, and among Die rest a very worthy
and intelligent young man who had
lost an arm in the rebellion. The con ■
test was animated, and the feeling fur
and against the various candidates was
at times intense; but from the first Mr.
Rheem appeared to have the inside
tract, and finally made the landing tri
umphantly. Maimed soldiers and old
veterans in the ranks of the hlnck-and
tan party, don’t appear to amount to
much now u-days.
Personally we had no feeling on thp
subject. . We confess, however, that we
like to see those who are connected with
the press successful occasionally, for in
party matters they spend more money,
do more work, and receive less thanks
than any other set of men. Their aid is
constantly required to foist others into
paying positions, and occasionally to
make great men out of asses, hut it is
seldom that honors or office are con
ferred upon them.
Mr. Rheem, nur new P. M., lias ca
pacity sufficient to make an eflicii nt
officer, and we doubt not he will do nil
he can to serve the community faith
fully.
Mr. Zinn, the retiring Postmaster,
carries with him the respect and confi
dence of our citizens. He has been a
faithful, obliging and prompt officer,
and Ids many friends regret Ids remo
val. We wish him success in whatever
business he may hereafter engage in.
Impeacher Ashly, ot Ohio, has
been appointed Governor of Montana,

by the following extracts from letters
written by A>hly, in March, 1861, to a
“ trooly loil” patriot, named Frank
.liaise, whom he had endi avored to have
appointed Surveyor of Colo'ado. These
lerers are dated March 12 and 18,1861,
and run thus:
“ Now, Fr-ink,, this is I tie hert nflioe. In

Tfiuuble Disaster inNevapa.-
A fire broke out in the Yellpw ,Jac|u't
mine,at Gold Hill, Nevada, on Wcdnesr
day, and extended to the Ken’uek and
Crown Point Mines. A numbei of mi
ners were working at the time of the
disaster, and a despatch dated Wednes
day evening says that the dead num
bered thirty-six.
The Spencer (Indiana) Journal states
that a stalwart and healthy, stay-at
home Radical is after the Post office at
that place—at present held and abiy ad

sons in. the army. If tfte fellow is as
well backed up as Bergner, of Harris
burg, was, the widow will be summari

Attention, Boys in Blue!— Grant
has removed Gen. Knipe, a gallant sol ;

Mu. Farnsworth, of Illinois, being
reproached in debate by Butler for op

man.” A good resolve for Farnsworth,

A project la on foot to proclaim* Gen -
Grant Emperor of America, and a news
paper, called “The Imperialist”, has
been started in New York for the pur
pose of advocating the movement ami
preparing the public mind for the change.
No sensible person w« uld be surprised to
•*ee such a project forcibly attempted.
Tl»e Radicals will resort to any deeper*
»t« measure to maintain their political
■supremacy and their consequent opportu
dlles for wholesale plunder.
The Lancaster ImelUgencersays.
The first number of thei/upcrftitfsf has
made its appearance in New York. It
ulvorates the ahrogatl *n o(a republican
orm of Government in the United Slates
ind the substitution of a monarchy. It
leolares that the experimebt ofa Dem
ocratic form of government in this ecu dry
mis prove i u failure. This is’he latest
phase of Radicalism, the hold announce
neikt of thrfdesign to. establish an empire
upon tlie ruins of the Republic. The pa
per is in quarto form, containing sixteen
,pages; am! the title is very appropriately
ornamented with u crown.
The simple fact that such a newspaper
Is permitted to disseminate its poisonous
doctrines, is one which may well alarm
••very true patriot. And what is still
more alarming, is the fact that not one of
ihe leading newspapers of the Radical
party has denounced the infamous pro
posal to destroy the Republic of our fore
fathers and erect a monarchy upon its
nins! Not one Republican leader has
uttered a word of protest agalnstascheme
which would have caused a general up-
rising of our people fifty years ago! It
mav safely be concluded that Hie Radi-
leaders are in favor of a monarchical
form of government, ami that the Imper
ialist is only the first of a number of sim
ilar newspapers about to be published in
ibis country in the event tif the first one
I.eing favorably or quietly received by
air people.
Connecticut.— Governor English is
defeated by a small majority. The Dem
ocrats made a heroic tight for princip'e.
Each font of ground was con csted with
stubborn and unyielding tenacity. The
true men of the party headed the col
umn, and the old nrvnfthe Guinn, Hie
Constitution and the rights of white men
was the railyinv slogan. But money,
corruption, I lie bribe for to-day and the
promise for tomorrow, were more potent
than the labors and the appeals of hone«f,
true men. From ail the North* rn States
money was poured into Connecticut in a
ceaseless stream, and In tills manner
thousands of votes were gained forth"
Radical candidates. Manufacturers also
entered into canvass and forced their op
eratives to support die Radical ticket*, on
pain of los'n-r their situations. Added to
Ibis was the hypothecated patronage of
Hie national administration. Promises
were sown broadcast over the whole Slate,
and men seduced by the weight of na
tional plunder and pickings.
How Grant Keeps his Word.—
It is related by the Washington corres
pondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer that
General Grant first sold his house in
Washington to Sayles J. Bowen, and a
memorandum of the agreement was
made, in which it was stipulated that
11,000 was to ho paid down on signing
the agreement, $O,OOO cash upon the de
livery of deed and possession of premi
ses, anil $30,000 in ten years, with inter
est at six per cent. Tliis memorandum
had attached to it a receipt for $l,OOO,
signed by Kilbnur & Latta, General
Grant’s agents, and also a note written
and signed by Grant himself, in rela
tion to the furnaces, gas fixtures, Ac.—
It is understood that the General had
the died prepared, and everything ar
ranged for making the transfer, when
Mrs. Grant refused to give her consent
to the transfer. Meantime, the Sher
man contributors made overtures for
the purchase of the property for Sher-
um, and President Grant, ignoring the
agrecinent with Bowen, sold the house
for nearly double the original contract.
Bowen was furious, and a suit for ten
or twenty thousand dollars damages is
now talked of. It is said that Grant
has been making overtures for a settle
ment outside of the courts,

U. 8. Insulted by a Sena
tor.—The Washington correspondent
of the Philadelphia Inguirer, in his let
ter dated April 11, says:
“ Senator Ross called ou tho President
to-day, and demanded the appointment
ot a mail whom th - President had re
fused to nominate, The president again
declined, ami told Mr Ross that he had

billed with devoted addition to corrupt
schemes.-but the general tenor of some
of its debates would disgrace a decent

foonery tluit would scarcely be foleruled
on the stage of a comic theater. A
shrewd manager, in seuich of h sensation,
-. ighl make a splendid hit by engaging

If-there is a drop of honest blood in the
veins ol any Republican who reals that,
he-must fell it crimsoning his cheek
with shame. Never was Pemisylvuoi i so
disgraced befoie.
The Philadelphia Inquirer speaks of
this Legislature us follows :
“ Why is it that no property owner
feels the ground safe under his feet, that
no corporation is certain of its franchis
es, that no man Is found to clear away

CiucAOb, April 9.—A dispatch to the
Times from St. Paul gives the details of
the horrible murder which occurred on
Wednesday morning in Oakdale town
ship, t»*n miles from that city. • A farmer
named James U. Grey, well known in
Mint section, In u fit of insanity k!1 ed
his wile ami four c.illdren, the latter con
sisting of two boys, aged eighteen and
eight, and two girls aged five an three
years. The tnurdeier was about forty,
years old, a )ur*o and powertully built
man. and has many relatives in the
ueighboiliood. He has lately been wif
ferring from a deafness, and grew insane
over it.
The deed was committed about day
light. The neighbors heard Mrs. .Grey
scream, and going to the bouse found the
wile and lour children cut to pieces with
an axe, and the murderer endeavoring to
hang himself He was arrestor and lodg
ed in the St. Paul jail, where it required
three or four inen to hold him. In an
swer to inquiries he would only reply,
“I killed them ail with an axe. Oh,
hang me! 1 * The wife was murdered
llr*t, being cut in the I ead and stabbed
several times. The children were then
munieicd and place ill a row on the lloor,
their ihtoiits so badly cut as to nearly

■The minder had evidently chopped
their heads with an axe, mutilating them
so as in render recognition almost impos

Correspondence American Volunteer,
Washington, April 12,186 D.
Congress adjourned at noon on Hatnr
day. In view of this fact, It will not be
out of place to inquire, most earnestly,
what our Radical law-makers have done
to restore the Union. We have been un
der Congressional rule for four lonir, wea
ry* yearn, and are no nearer a restored
Union to day than we were the day Lee
surrendered at Appomattox. If you do
not believe thlsstatement, ask your Radi
cal neighbor, whether, as the law stood
wnen Congress adjourned, Virginia Is in
the Union or out of it. Ask him the
Maine thing as to Georgia, Louisianiu,
'Texas or Mississippi, and he cannot an
«wer you in either ease. Itveiily seems
as if tiie people, In most surprising apa
thy, had fallen asleep and forgotten the
main end they hud in view in prosecu
ting a long ami devastating war. The
question, the poramount.question, which
cost so much in national life and nation
al means, and for which so much has
been suffered, has slipped out of the pub
lie mind and become lost in the by-play
and designed confusion of the dominant
party, carried on to cover up their real
designs—the perpetuation of their power.
How seldom do Wfi bear the deep-mean
ing murmur of the people, complaining
that.tl.e Union has not been restored
f)«ir years after the measures of peace to
consummation of restoration are suppos
ed to have begun, and asking those re
sponsible for the still divided Union—
tile Radical party—Why is this? How
seldom do we hear the rolling of this
deep complaint though the Union Is prac
tically Just as completely divided now as
it was five years ago! Are the people
becoming accustomed to a dissolved
Union, and becoming satisfied with It,
willing to allow the tremendous sacrlfl
cea which they made for the Union’ssake
—solely for the.Uuion’s sake—to have all
been in vain? Area dissolved Union
urn! the supremacy of the Radical party
—two tilings that begun together, that
go together, and that will end together
all that they desire? Are these two
things the boon, the Messing which
through manifold and untempered trials
they souglit? Was it for these they
fought; was it for these they offered up
ith and kin and all things else as a sac
rifice; was it for these they mortaged all
their possessions and earnings now and
hi the future to pay an amazing debt of
Ive thousand millions? It was nol for
hese— hut fur otherwise. But lot them
forget what it was for. Let them
, and not cease to ask • Is the Union
iored, as it should have been, and as
as promised long ago? And when the
ihs »er rises, It is not; let them thunder
Why ? and continue thundering, 1 Why?
until, guilty and quaking, Radicalism,
hearing in the voice of the people the
voice of God, shall answer their interro
gatory, and give an account of what it
has done, of what It has failed- to do.—
Such an answer, such np account would
be its utte r and Ignominious condemna
tion. Ii» any rase let not the people for
get their claims and their country. Let
them not lie down *n a drowsy and un
reasonable faith that all will yet be well,
when there Is not a single feature of the
public policy that is being pursued, that
has been pursued for years, that Is pro
jected ftp* the future, which juatlflft. or
in any proper sense permits this belief,
that all is well; The plain truth is, that
all js not well-far ftom R, There was
never more uncertainty and cause for se
rious misgivings in our national affairs
than now. There fa a cloud, with dark
possibilities, stretching over nl.h ISven
the party into whose incapable and dis
honest hands control is lodged are rent
and div|d‘d«sto whatlodo.. Upon their
own President, even In the first days of
his official life, they look with distrust
and suspicion. An omnipotent Senate
lords it over nil. And the "party, all in
ail, is 10-day, like a band ofrobbere,quar
relling over th** spoils,
When will the Unlou.be restored ? Tf
could not be restored in five years after
the close of the war, and through the
means of peace, by the party In whose
bunds restoration has rested, how many
years are necessary? Verily, indeed,
what a sham and shame it is, thlstrifling
from year to year, now on this pretext
and now on that, with the people of the
United States, with the integrity of- thp
Union, and wjtjh the bf»t Interests of the
country i what has been going on
in Congress. Mark the efforts there, not
to restore States to the Union, but to cast
(hem out / To-duy States are readmits d !
to lire Union, (when and how did liny
get out?) to nap the parJancQo.f the Radi
cal party, and l«.-morrow they are turn
ed out. At this rate, when the people
wake up in (lie morning, they have no
means of knowing whether a designated
Stale Is the Union nr out of the Union.
What a stale of affairs, to be sure! What
a prufouiidr-tuteaiimiibhip most have been
brought to bear upon our Federal affairs
to accomplish such mighty ahd*magnifi
cent results! Five years, with all the
resources anil sagacity of the Radical
party, spent in reaching Ull» Ueside
,gt win—com plete uncertainty as to
whether certain States are in the Union
orn*'> i Five year* have d» mou&uahd
chiefly th 1m; that the Rudhai party have
betrayed the Country, and time we have
Indeed no Union at all. This stands out
not
ask,
rest'
c ear uml cloudless enough to any un
prejudiced eye. How long is this crinil- :
nil ..altering with serloua interests to go
on ?' When will this treacherous play of
partisanship cease, and the real duties of
stalespiahshlp begin? How long shall a
part /be allowed to dominate to the soio
end of ruin ! We doubt II any other peo
ple under heaven would submit to the
same amount of Jugglery and duplicity
as the American people, aud with their
amazing forbearance— a forbearance
which, long since ceased to be a virtue.
It is strauge, it is astounding that they
submit to tlie crafty devices t a party
whose Whole history is one of treachery
and double-dealing, and who have never
yet undertaken anything even when
they talked most loudly of** patriotism, ’*
“ loyalty,” aud “ devotion to the Union,”
of which perpetuation of party auproma.-
cy was not the sum and substance.
When will the Union be „ restored 7 I
cannot tell- You cannot toll. I knov
of none who cun tell. I do not, indeed,
see much prospect of its being
Restoration is utterly incompatible with
the existence of the Radical party. Let
the parly be broken up and cast out, aud
restorai ion would come almost of itself.
The party is the solo impediment to res
toration. It stands like a wedge between
the broken parts of the Union, prevent
ing their coralng.together, and keeping
them sore and Inflamed. Takeaway the
wedge and cast it into the fire, and the
broken parts will come together, and, by
the healing influences ot time, soon form
one Union as firm and as strong as ever,
Willi no' doubt as to how many States
compose it, and with an absolute certain
ly-, unlike as it is now, and the Stales
which were in the Union yesterday are
in it to-day', aud will not be cast out to
morrow.
Many of the ablest men of the present
day have for the last three op four 'years,
expressed their belief that the Republi
can leaders, in their efforts for centrali
zation of power, were gradually paving
the way for transforming this Republic
Into an Empire; that, while pretending
to base their action upon the will of .the
people, they arp, under that cover, direct
ing all their efforts towards a revolution
which will enable them to insure the ru-
in of our Republic and Its institutions,
and establish in its place an Empire,
with its crowned Emperor, title of no
bility and aristocratic rule. Few imagin
ed that there would be any so bold as to
publicly announce lids as their intention,
and proclaim this doctrine at so early a
stage in the movement. It Is, however,
fortunate that the mask is about to be re
moved, the real objects made known that
the people may be able to realize the
dancer which threatens them.
Hardly Irttd Gen. Grant been sworn In
ns President, before there were rumors
that a paper wad to be started in New
York, which would, advocate the estab-
ishnient of an Empire In this country
and the proclaiming of Grant Emperor.
The prospectus of this paper, to becalled
the Imperialist, has already been issued.
U declares that the,creed of the Imperil
atist Is revolutionary; its mission is to
prepare the minds of the American peo
ple f-*r the revolution that has alreoity
begun throughout the country—thus an
nouncing that the work has been pro-
gressing for a long time, and that it has
dually reached a stage where the objects
and alms can be openly proclaimed.—
Another paragraph In this prospectus in
dicates that either the are in
tli© movement, or else their sympathy
and aid are sought, and that It is also
the intention to make this. olas« the no
bility ; for It states that U \V© believe
that the national faith, if left in the keep
ing of the populace, will be sullied by
sure repudiation of tb? national debt, and
(hat nn Imperial Government can alone
protect the rights gf national creditors.”
Then, again, it is stated that the Re
public means lawlessness, corruption,
insecurity to person and property, rob
bery of the public creditorsaud civil.war;
that the Empire means law, order, secu
rity, public faith and peace.”
During three years of faithful service.
I have warned the readers of the Volun
teer, of many things contemplated in
the policy of the Radical leaders, and I
cal) upon.them to refer to the dies of
your journal aifd see if every prediction
of mine has not been verified. I now
place upon record my firm conviction
that before the Presidential, term of
. UlyecsJGrant expires,this country will be
daggered by u coup d'etat which will
shake civil government throughout the
world.
