as are deemed necessary. MANY CGM0C11TB.
To Oar Patrons.
In assuming the responsible position of
that of editor of a publio jourual the cus
tom is well established requiring the per
son doing so to designate, at the thresh,
old, the objects aimed at, and the princi
ples and policy by which ho intends to be
guided.
Wo shall endeavor to do so in as few
words a possible, and in terras so plain
that all may understand.
To those who know us, it is unnecessary
to say, that as far as politics is concerned
the Republican will continue to bo a warm
nd tealous supporter of the measures
nnd nominees of the National Domooratic
parly. Our common country has grown
to a strength, a greatness and a position
among the nations of the earth, second
to that of no other. Tho Democratio par
ty have had control of the Government
during four-fifths of its history. That par
ty is the author of more than that propor-
nun oi an me great national measures
that have produced this state of prosperi-
ty ana greatuesi. For this reason. if
there were no other, there is at least
safely in supporting that party. Its
measures must be wholesome, otherwise
such national prosperity could not result
from them.
But as a party organ, our journal is to
bo the mouth-pieco, or trumpet, of no
man, citizen or cabal. In its political
character all Democrats
claim to its columns. Its
claim the excercise of that right which be -
longs to every American citizen to de!
olare their individual sentiment imnn
ents upon
let or bin-
leiornm-
any and all subjects, without let
umnoe ana tne claiming or this right for
themselves, is granting it to others. In
the oontesl for nominations aa randi.
date, for political offices, we shall excer-
. .
cise the right of all oitizens as tuch-but
when the parly baa acted, the support and
influeoco of the paper is to be given in all
cases to the nominees. . This is the only!
means by whioh a political party can keep
...n.:..i: a4 r ash f nil v nnn.
tend with its rival. All good partizaui
know this.and practice accordingly.
As an advocate of the iutorost, the lion
or, and the welfare of the citizens of Clear
field county wo trust we shallj not be
backward but more especially on such
ooeasions do we hope always to he right.
Whatever project, calculated to benefit
our county, either in its agricultural, man
ufacturing or mechanioal enterprises
which may from time to time present it
self, will be sure to find a warm welcome
with the JUpublican. .
It is our object to preicnt to our sub
,rrihr. reffiilarlv nncn a. waek. a. useful
, 0 j
family paper, in which they can find noth
ing to oft'end but a faithful record of pas'
sing events at home, as well aa an intelli
gent view of the outside world. To do thi3
successfully, the assistance of friends
throughout the county is essentially nec
cesjary and the attention and co opera,
lion of all such is respectfully solicited,
and will be faithfully reciprocated. As
often as important events take place in
thoir neighborhood, or useful ideas may
be presented to their minds, let us hava
them, and the wotld shall reap the bene'
fit.
Whilst wo profess to publish a partizan
paper, wi by no means intend that it shall
bo nothing else. We think tve can make
it sufliciently partizan to please the- most
exacting of its political friends, and at tho
same time lullill all ttio loregoing
promises. Wo repeat that the measures
and the men of the National Dociocracy
shall receive from us a zealous support. In
doing to, we trust tve shall ever have
duo regard for the rights and preferen
ces of others. Courting no controversy
with others, either upon political or any
other subject, we shall shrink from none,
but support with all our means and abili
ty, fearlessly, yet we trust, desentl and
respectfully, whatever we believe to be
right.
Tho Republican must be improved in its
appearance and its character, In its influ
ence and usefulness. In making this
promise, we wish to be distinctly under-
tood a casting no reflection upon our
talented and gentlemanly predecessor.
Those who are aware of the very many
disadvantages under which he labored,
will never comp'.ain. Perhaps few men.
nder the same circumstances, would
have succeeded any better.
Q. B. GOODLANDER & Co.,
A plain Road to Victory.
The Democratic State Committeo have
presented a plan upon which the friends
of Mr. Douglas and Mr. Breckenridee can
nite, the approaching Presidential Con
test, without requiring the slightest sacri-
ce on tho part of either. They reoom-
mend the Democracy to support the Elec
toral Ticket selected at the Reading Con
vention, in February lust, who are to
pledge themselves (in case of their elec
tion) to cast the vote of the State f.rsl for
Stephen A. Douglas, in case such a vote
... t i . a 3 t I
wm secure u. e.ecuon : ormma. may be set down as a regular sound Na
case Mr. Douglas cannot bo elected, and tional Democrat, with a clean and pure
Mr. BreckenriJge can, then the vote of record, no matter tc which wing of the
tho State is to be cast for that centleman.
And third. In caso their vote will be instru
mental in securing the election of neither,
then the electors are to vote according to
their individual preferences.
There is nothing unfair in this. It is
oomnion ground, upon which all who pre
fer the election of a Democrat to a Repub
lican, can unito. The effect is lo make
tho friends of each help tho other. And
not only this, but our State organization
is preserved. We can all unito upon onr
State and district and County ticket, and
to all ntenta and mimosa h n r,rt
. , .r rv,
although divided in opinion as to tho
choice of men for the Presidency either
of whom, however must bo infinitely preN
erable to a Black Republican, with all
Democrala.
Set aside the dictation of hot-headed,
rule-or-ruin politicians in and out of the
State, and we are quite sure that nine-1
lynine hundredths of the Democracy ot
PonilBulllAMia ...til J 1 U T - . !
of the State Central Committee.
Shall this dintation of those who prefer
tho election of Lincoln to Douglas, or
those who prefer the election of Lincoln
to BreckenriJge bo disregarded? Wo
hopo end believe it will. Let the people
everywhere frown upon all, attempts to
get up another electoral ticket. We cau'gnblo tor the true friendanf.T.ul nmirl.

Oar Flag.
In accordance with tho deliberate
action of the Democratio Stale Cential
Committo which is the regularly consti
tuted organ of the Democratio party of,
Pennsylvania we place at our mast-head,
both tba Democratio tickets for President
Douglas and . JonNSTov, and Brickin
ridoe and Lane. ;
There is nothing inconsistent, or con
flicting in this. The Democracy aro rec-
commended to vote for tho present Elec
toral Ticket, whether their first choice be
Breckonridge or Douglas. The contest is
between National Democracy and Black
Republicanism. All who prefer tho for
mer to the latter, need be at no loss what
to do; and if we but unite in this recom
mendation, and disregard the dictation of
such men as Forney- -who reully prefer
tho election of Lincoln, our success is
certain. We not only render the election
of a Democratio President certain, but we
also secure the eloction of Gen. Foster as
Governor, and a majority of our Congress
sional delegation and State Legislature.
With this view, therefor we placo both
tickets at our mast-head, and earnestly
urge the friends of both 'Douglas and
Breckinridge - to vote tho same electoral
ticket. If they all do this although they
may fail in securing the election of tneir
favorite, they will certainly aid in defeat-'
'ng the Abolition-Republican candidates i
and this ought to be sufficiently gratify
ing to every National Democrat, no mat
ter whether he is is for Douglas or Brock
enridge.
J8When Forney was elected Clerk of
a Black Republican House of Representa-
tives last winter, the present distracted
condition of tho Democratio party, was'norigburs.
c.carly loreseen, one or two of the bouth-
em btate? had manitested sucli hostility
to Mr. Douglas as lo render this event
certain, snoiud he receive the nomination
Then Forney was bound as the price of
his election, to aid the Republicans in the
coming election. 1 he hrst object wai to
dibtract the Democratio party. To ac
complish this purpose, ho pretended to
support Douglas.
Had it been otherwise. Had there been
no such unmistakable signs of a division
n the Democratic parly Forney, in or
der to have secured the Clerkship of a Re
publican House would have been compel
led to have thrown off all dwguiso and to
have made asquaro-toed bolt into tho Ab
olition ranks.
He now denounces the Ofttion oi the
State Central Committee because (hat was
calculated to insure tho defeat of Lincoln.
Can it bo that such a base inerate can
have influence enough in the Democratio
party to do it injury J We think not.
The Electoral Ticket.
The action of the Stst Central Com
mittee in regard to tho Electoral Ticket
receives the highest commendation from
every National conservative Democrat.
In the whole course of our political expo..
rience seldom have we known any action
of a State Central Committee which was
intended to heal dissensions in the party,
meet with such general approbation from
all right-thinking men as that of the corn-
mittes which assembled at the Merchant's
wo'el ?n Jusl f onuay.

Among incse are .uemocrnts who nre
tho warm and devoted friends of Judge
Douglas, but who, although they do not
"love Uesar less, love Komo more," and
prefer tho party and its principles to men
Liemocrats, wno are governed by lion
en p-urioiio motives; who clearly see
that the contest of 1860 is one between
Sectional Black Republicanism on tho
one side, and National Democracy on tho
other, and who prefer the success of tho
latter party and tho overthrow of the for-
ier, vo uio success oi any individual, no
i,, , ;c(:.,:i t. . u-
matter how distinguished he may be,
But wo must acknowledge, that while a
large number of the honest friends of
Judge Douglas endorse tho action of the
State Central Committee, and will give it
their heaity tupport and cooperation,
yet .there are many professed friends
but, in fact, secret enemies of the "Lit.

If tho people of this County neglect to

rank injustice. With Messrs Jenks, Bra

men. However, for Congross and assem

own County, (unless the District Conven

had one.
Western Antiquities. A corresprn
dentofthe Winona (Minnesota) Republican,
writes that Mr .A, L. Jenks, of that place,
who is prospectina in one of those mounds
which are so common in that country, re
cently discovered, at the depth of five or
six leet the remains of seven or eight
people of very large size. One thigh bone
measured three feet in length. The un
der jaw was one inch wider than any oth
er man in the city. lie also found clam
shells, pieiooR of ivory or bone rings, pieces
of kettles made of earth and coarse sand.
There were at the neck of one ofthese
skeletons, teeth two inches in lenth by
one half to three fourths of an inch in di
nmeter, with holes drilled into the side,
and the end polished with a crease around
it. Also, an arrow five inches long by one
and a half wide, Btuck through tho back
near the back bone ; nnd one about eight
inches long stuck in theleft'breast. Al
so, the blade of a copper hatchet, one and
a half inch wide at the edge and two long.
The mound is some 200 feet above thesur
fnco of the Mississippi, and it is composed
of clay immediately above the remains
two feet thick ; then comes a lair of t lack
loam ; then another layer of clay six inch
es thick, all so cloesly packed that it was
with difficulty that itcouldbe penetrated
There are'some four or five different layers
ot earth above the remains. J here is no
such clay found elsewhere in the vicinity
