The POTTER JOURNAL AND IST EW S IT EH*. C3DDERSPORT. Pa., Nov. 12.1873. The Constitutional Convention. This body has completed its work. The new Constitution proposed by it is to be submitted to a vote of the people on the third Tuesday of De eetnber next, being December 16. with our next number we expect to send out an exact copy of the proposed new Constitution which we hope and believe will be favorably received by all the people. Of course there are some provi sions in it that each voter would pre fer to have omitted, it taken as a whole we feel very confident it is a great improvement on our present Constitution. The people in the new and smaller counties have great reason to be pleased with the work of the Con vention. The new Constitution will secure to every county a Represen tative in the Legislature. The value of this provision to t lie small eouit tiican hardly be over-estimated. It will secure an annual appropria tion to the common schools of 4 *at least one million of dollars;" that is 42.9 per cent more than the largest -urn heretofore appropriated. School oislricts that now receive from the Mate £ 100 will receive if the new Constitution i- adopted at least § i 42.90, ail others in the same p op- r;ion. We tiust this generous provision for the support of the com mon schools will enlist the active sup port oi every voter in Potter county in favor of the new Constitution. There are many other provisions of great importance, all of which are in the interest of honesty, justice and the welfare of the people. There is not a -ingle change proposed that will meet the approval of those who desire dishonest legislation or who live In dishonest political move un ni-. This fact ought to commend the instrument and we believe will do it, to the great mass of the peo ple. Lor these always prefer tore foim acknowledged e\ils when asuu opportunity is offered. Hon.

The November Elections. 1 lie Rej uiblican- have not carritfi a.- many slate- I hi- year a- lhe\ dids y ar ago, whereai. our Democratic iVieiids bring out their banners ami fill the air "iih their rejoicings. That is acting on the principle oi the man that fell ami broke his leg, rejoicing that he had not broken both 1-us. The Democracy are not a- badly beaten a- last year—that is all- but that is just wliat has occurred periodienlly after every Presidential • ieetion >inee the Republican parte < inu into power. Duly the reaction i othing like so great this time as .I "a- after the Presid, ntial election l 1 T>o—and the prospect of electing a Republican President in InTO actually largely improved lv the . lections of this year, because they make it pretty certain that the Hour non Democracy will be the chief op ]>onent ,n that campaign and the people of this County will never elect a Bourbon Democrat a; President of the United States, The result of the November elec tion in brief is as follows: New \ oik elects the Democratic state ticket by about 10,000, but elects a majority of Republicans to both branches of the Legislature. 1 uat i- better than we e\er did in the "off year" before. New Jersey went Republican— a close gain for the right. Maryland went Democratic as usual; Virginia, ditto; Wisconsin was carried by the Farmers' party. Minnesota, Massachusetts, Arkan sas ami Mississippi went Republican. All tilings considered we have done well and we have no shadow of doubt that the Republican party will continue in power for many years to come; aud that it will hon estly and faithfully reflect the will >1 the people and secure many addi ional reforms, adding every year to he glory of its record. "'OUR' Almanac," for 1874. is re ceived and is a charming little me nento of old times when almanacs vere pleasant annual visitants and lousehold companions, to be con sulted and trusted; instead of fright ail protrayals of diseases and -eine ties, continually reminding one of enible things that may happen any lay in the year. Better have a chill jr a fever and be done with it than have a quack almanac always before one's eyes. The Look Ahead. The reverses which have befallen the Republican party will in the end, we believe, turn out to In- a real beuelit to it instead of an injury. They will serve to purify it and make it better able to cope with its old enemy, Democracy, in the years that are to come. It cannot be seri ously harmed nor permanently dis abled if the principles of truth and justice are eternal, for it is founded upon them. While they remain it will have its mission, and continue to IH? a power in the land, notwith standing the clouds that may from time to time overshadow it. The party is in reality no weaker to-day than it was last year, as is conclusive ly proven by the fact that the Democ racy shows no increase of strength. We were defeated, not because we had not voters enough, but because they remained away from the polls. There is one fact to be learned from the result of Tuesday's election and it will be well if it is heeded alike by both Republicans and Dem ocrats. That fact is that the people are inure independent of party than they formerly were. Men are think ing and acting for .lu-iuselvcs, and as a matter of consequence refuse to vote for candidates that do not pos sess their eontidenee. Political pro fessions and platforms count fot very little now, as compared with their former inllut-nce. The great demand of the public is for honest and capable men in all ollicial sta tions. We rejoice that it is so. foi the sure result will be to compel po litical parties to be more careful ii the selection of their standard bear els. The defeat of least Tuesday ren dors it certain that, for the ncx three years, af least, we shall have t< contend witti the Democratic party That fact ensures the election ot : Republican President in ISTfi, am probably a Republican Governor o \v yy York in This will mon than compensate for our present de feat; and if in the meantime, oui party leaders shall learn wisdon from their experience, our presell misfortune will turn out to be bu the discipline necessary to prepan the party for greater triumphs ove-i wrong in the future than it ha achieved in the past.— Buffalo Ex press. For the Journal and Item Thanksgiving and the Soldier's Monument. On the 27th of the present month as every-laxly knows, is Thanksgiving day; and how many Thanksgiving dinners will be prepared at an extn exjxmse in Potter county ? Will tin miniber be less than one thousand o the average additional expense 1M less than one dollar each? "Well," replies my well-to-do neighbor, "sup pose the people or the County do pay a thousand dollars for their Thanks giving dinners; have they not tin right to do so. and have we not nine! to be thankful for? Let your mine glance back over the last twelvi years," he continues, "and then if we. the American people, shouh not be very grateful for the blessing: conferred on us as a nation withii th's>e years?"' Twelve years ago tin sun shone on three hundred thou *aud Rebel bayonets charged at tin nation's heart; twelve years ago tin tramp of the Union soldier w as heart from Maine to California—from tin great lakes of the north to the di vision line between freedom and sla very, all hurrying to the field of con fliet. Then, too, more than three millions of God's men ami worner groaned under the "sum of all vil lianies." Then, too, the soul of John Brown had but newly arrived in Heaven ami the hands of his mur derers were still red with his blood. How is to-day? Slaves do not breathe in Columbia. Those mil lions ol'slaves are slaves no longer, but men before the law. A few are in the council chambers of the nation, some in the various professions—law, medicine and divinity, still more en gaged as teachers in the schools ol our country—all moving forward to a higher and nobler life. And the million armed soldiers of the North and South, Cineinnatus-like, re turned to their homes—following the plow, or pursuing other peaceful and profitable employments. In view of all these blessings, should we not indeed be ingrates were we unthank ful or did not duly observe the dav designated by our chief magistrate? Certainly, I answer, we ltave very nuch for which to be thankful. Sla very is a thing, ami a very hateful hing, of the past. The shock of contending armies is 10 more heard or felt—hot a rebel nusket is shouldered, not a sabre 11. auis in defiance ot law, not a bu jle calls to arms. The absent loved jnes have returned and "soft-eyed >eaee" spicads her wings caressingly >ver us. But wait, did all the soldiers—all die absent loved ones return? Are ■here no vacancies around the Thanks giving board? Ah,yes, and in hearts, too. The glorious achievements of which we are justly proud and for which we arc devoutly thankful, were won at a fearful cost. From this same little county of Potter went forth at their country's call nearly three hundred brave young hearts which have long since ceased to pul sate—some of them were stilled by lleltel bullets, some by burning fe vers contracted in miasmatic regions of the South, and some by a process practiced only by fiends who could fight for slavery, namely, starvation ! These three hundred voiceless bodies now sleep in nameless graves under the sands of the sunny south. We to-day are proud of, and give thanks for the achievements for which they gave their lives. They partake not of our joyous thanksgiving to-day— though their blood helped Us to the victory. No stone reared by friends marks tiieir resting place—no moth ers, wives or sisters hands strew flowers over their graves. Theii bodies will rest and return to then kindred dust where they now repose, and shall their deeds and names ulsc sink into oblivion ? A monument to their m morv has been commenced and carried forward as far as the funds collected would do it, the work 1 icing now suspended for want of means. A few hundred dollars paid over to the treasurer Hon. A. (. Olmsted, will eompleu it. Can we not afford to pay at much towards the erection of a tomb stone to the memory of our dead he roes as we pay for a single dinner!' Friends,citizens, men, and last but not least, women of Potter county, whet you come around your Thanksgiving table will you bear this subject it mind and semi to the Treasurer om half as much as your dinner costs. If you do the monument w ill be com I>l cte< 1. We have disgraced onrselvef too long already by neglecting what we each ami all know to be a simph [ act of justice in memory of those win went down to soldier's graves.

JOURNAL: Ihe quarterly meet i iug at LewL.ville, has actually beei ! held. For some time it had been re garded as a future event that was 1 almost certain to come, bv;t the tiim of its arrival could only be conjee tured. lb v. Mr. I>avies announced it for Oct. 25th and 2♦ t h, and on tin last named day it was set down foi the evening of Nov. 2nd. Ifanothei change was contemplated the notict did not arrive in time to prevent s large congregation from assembling to hear the Presiding Elder. They were doomed to disappointment it this, but Kev. Mr. Davies preacher an excellent discourse and then tin (Quarterly Conference met and trail saeted its appropriate business. Why Kev. Rice was not there no one could tell, hut it was suggested that tin time had not been changed a sulti cient number of times yet. The iQuarterly Meeting for the Lewisville charge immediately pro ceeding this was first announced foi about the middle of August and then changed from time to time about four times and finally came off a lit tle before the middle of September. Quite a number of those who desired to attend had lost track of it as it skipped about and only learned the exact time of its occurrence when it hat! become an event of the past. The congregation was small and in taking up the usual collection it was found to tie far below the required amount. While efforts were Vicing made to raise the balance, an ••uncon verted friend" suggested to the Stew ard, in a whisper, that as this was only one of about four appointments of this identical Quarterly Meeting, the balance of the collection should V)e raised at the other appointments. Another proposed that the balance, when raised, should be turned over to Rev. Mr. Vanvradeiiburg to pay him for the several extra announce ments he had been compelled to make. This would seem to have be n a just use of a portion of the collection however raised. The immediate followers of the ini-! nortal Wesley were first called j Methodists from their regular and j ?xact manner of living, but some of lis distinguished disciples in these lays do not seem to consider the inie of holding Quarterly Meetings i thing about which they need to be xaet and regular. Undoubtedly :his is a great improvement upon old limes, but it sometimes occasions no iittle inconvenience. C. EDS. JOURNAL: Not long ago 1 read an .article in a leading city paper (AT. Y. Ecanyelist) entitled "Not Quite so Fast, Brethren," and indeed 1 have read main' arguments in said paper touching the vexed "tobacco question." 1 have sometimes been sat 1 a* 1 noticed a lack of christian candor which ought to pervade the whole bring of every follower of Christ when dealing with a great national evil—and such, I trust, every candid man and woman will pronounce to bacco, whether using it or not. And I here repeat what I have before publicly said: that a majority of those who habitually use tobacco, do so because they can't help it. And I am ready to bring evidence to prove tliia assertion true. If by use we have become slaves to so weak a master, and have not moral or physi cal force si fficient to bseak from its power shall we not raise a warning cry to our friends, aid s, eciallv oui sons, to deter them from coining un der the power of a tyrant that loads with chains and goads us along through life? "Disguise thyself as tliou w ill, slavery, still tliou art cruel, and though thousands of all ages are iu thy cruel grasp, thou art no less bitter ou that account;" and if this vast number is increasing in oui land, shall we? make light of our po sition? Shall we not rather cry out "Oh ! wretched men that we are, who shall deliver us?" Yes, fellow citi zens, this is a mighty evil, and one not easily got rid of-—or much long or kept back from the public view The irrepressible conflict v ill soor begin. 1 read sadly the last tine of the ar ticle above nduded to: "Smokers bev:are ! your time may l>c at hand on account of the spirit that seemed to indite it. as I honestly believe that not one in fifty can overcome the habit.
