At tbo close of tho war tho Rndi
ats i'unr.d tho States of the South cx-hiui-t
: I by their tremendous efforts,
and impoverished by the lavish ex
penditures they had been compelled
to make. Their beautiful and produc
tive il.intations, which had added
millions each year to the national
v.-vi.ii.'i and produoed five-eighths of
tbo r ii lion's exports, had been wasted
and many of their cities burned j their
stock aud funning implements had
been either stolen or destroyed, and
no people were ever found in a moro
deplorublo condition, or one better
cafuuliUed to excite the profoundest
sympathy. They wore incapable of
further resistance, and had become
entirely satisfied of the futility of any
further efforts to establish their inde
pendence. They were willing to sub
mit to tho terms of tho victors, but
they expected such terms as power
ful and chivalrous conquerors always
concede to a heroic but fallen foe.
Unfortunately, however, when the
war closed a political party held the
control of the Government, whose on
ly cohesive principle was the power
of publio plunder, and which was at
the sutne time filled with malignity
and the determination to perpetuate
its political power. They believed
they saw in the condition of the
Southern Stales the opportunity to
secure the ends they so much desired,
end although for nearly throo years
they have made loud professions of
mi earnest desire to remove the tra
ces of tho war and restore the South
ern States to their appropriate places
in the Union, their legislation has
steadily and constantly given the lie
to their professions and tended pre
cisely in tho opposite direction.
Instead of removing tho tracos of
tae war they sent an immense army
into thoso States, and, with the ex
ception of fiirhtine, have kept up a
constant state of war, with tho civil
law dead, and military law adminis
tered at the point of the bayonet. In
stead of restoring the Southern States
to their appropriate places in the.
Unioo,they,liave erected them into mil
itary despotisms, and placed the con
trol of the lives and property of the
people in the hands of a set of linga
dier Generals, who were not, proba-
bly, before the war, considered by
tlioir neighbors to huvo sufficient tal
ent to conduct successfully a corner
crooerv. In tho meantime, tho south
has been rapidly sinking into lower
depths of poverty, and her ability to
produce anything which can add to
the national wealth or prosperity is
rapidly growing less, and will contin
no to do so so long as tho present
eytcm is kept up ; and il it is contin
tied for any considerable length of
time, it will mako that most produc
tive and lovely portion of our conti
nent a desert wild, inhabited only b
thriftless and idlo negroes, who will,
year by year, become moro brutal
and barbarous, until they have fallen
to the level of their race in Africa,
with all of their horrible pagan prac
tices and habits. Such will be the
inevitable effect of the consummation
of tlis schemes of the Radicals, as ap
plied to the Southern States.
It is idlo to argue that a system
whieh represses industry; which do
root svliros and renders worthless tho
labor system of a country ; which ro
duces tho value of lands ; which re
pels capital and immigration ; which
makes uncertain all titles to property;
which drives away the intelligent
and talented population to find that
liberty and reposo which it cannot
find at home; wich exalts tho stupid
and besotted negro into a superior
beiiuT, and places tho control of tho
country in his hands; which offers a
pretfiium for ignorance brutality, idle
ness and inexperience, and discounts
education, intelligence and energy ;
we say that it is preposterous to argue
tliut such a system can result in any
tiling but ruin and barbarism.
A iid it must not bo forgotten in
tliii connection that tho crimes and
folllio of Radical legislation and mis
rule, and the ruin which results there
Iron), aro not to bo confined to the
boundaries of the sect ion against which
they are directed. Tho North which
has o long winked at it, if it hag not
approved theHe enormities, is feeling
now, and will continuo to fuel, thoir
pernicious effects. So long as the
pro ! active resources and energies of
the houth are dormant, so long will
6he be unablo to contribute anything
to tho snpport of tho Government or
the maintonanco of tho National cred
it, nnd just so long will tho North
have the cnliro burden of taxation to
heir. This is not a pleasant viow of
the mbjoet to tho laboring classes in
t '.fi Northern Statos who arc stagger
in,t under tho weight of taxation,
wLh keeps them on tho vcrgo of
rcmiry, by redueingthe valuo of thoir
i!"r and enhancing the valuo of ev
er) thing they aro compelled to bny.
Jlve:y branch of industry feels the

IttmocratU VoeumenlM.
Tho Washington (D. C.) Rational
Intelligencer Bays :
There never was so general a call
upon Congressmen and political com
mittees hero tor democratic docu
ments as at present. Tho mad mea
sures of the Jtadical majorities in both
Houses of Congress have alarmed tho
peoplo, and whetted thoir appetites for
democratic or Conservative speeches,
illustrative of current topics, to a do
greo not only unprecedented, but
quite beyond tho ability of Congress
men to supply tho demand.
A Congressional Committee has
boon raised for distribution of cam
paign documents, and their card has
been published, with a list of speeches,
and tho prices at which they can be
furnished. e understand that this
committeo are in receipt of numerous
orders, but that not more than half of
them aro accompanied with remit
tances to pay for what is ordered.
Individual members of Congress also
receive applications from every part
of the country for speeches, which
they are expected to furnish gratis.
A wido spread misapprehension pre
vails among the people in regard to
the publication of speeches. It is al
most univorsally supposed that they
are printed at public expense, and
that mombers are only taxed to frank
and send them out; whereas the fact
is, that members pay for their own
speeches, and others, the same price
that other peoplo aro charged for
them. It is only such documents as
are printed by order of one of the
Houses of Congress that are printed
at publio expense. The Agricultural
Reports, the Congressional Globe, and
departmental papers generally, are in
stances of publio printing, and these
aro furnished to members in limited
numbers; but tho speeches of mem
bers aro never ordered by the Houses
to be printed in pamphlet form, and
are always brought out at tho expense
of individual subscribers. Stereotyped
as they are here, copies of speeches
can be multiplied indefinitely, and are
furniHhed at prices that barely quit
tbocoBtof production, but at thoso pri
ces are paid for by the members order
ing thera. Every membcrexpondsscv
cral hundred dollars each session for
speeches to send to his constituents.
But when they have taxed themselves
as largely as they feel able to bear for
the benefit of their immediate con
stituents, a great void still remains to
be filled. All the Southern StatcB are
without a Democratic Representative
in Congress. Only one of the six Now
England States has a Democratic rep
resentative on tho floor of either House
and several of the Western Statos
have not ono. In other States that
aro partially represented by Demo
crats, there are many districts which
at the late elections gave large Dcmo
crctie majorities, and yet others with
immense Democratic minorities that
are unrepresented. Now, to require
members of Congress to buy speeches
to supply all theso numbers of Demo
crats and Conservatives in such dis
tricts, besides supplying their imme
diate constituents, is unreasonable.
Neither tho Congressional Committee
nor individual members not of the
committee, ouht'to be asked to bear
so unreasonable a burthen ; nor would
they be if the peoplo understood the
facts as they exist, and it is the desire
of members that the Democratic news
papers iu tho country shall explain
these facts to tho pooplo.
Everywhere moro or less organiza
tion prevails among tho Democratic
masses. 1 here are btato and county
committee throughout tbo whole
country who might, with very littlo
effort, raise in their rcspoclivosiihoros
money enough to buy a full stock of
the speechos which tho Congressional
Committeo advertise, and wnich they
would be happy to send to any local
committee on receiving tho money
they will have to pay to tho printers.
Funds so raised would burden nobody.
Any Democratic or Conservative who
is worthy to receive a speech gratis
from representatives of other districts
than his own, would not object to
paying ono or two cents for a pamph
let copy. Nay, ho would bo glad to
do so if his local committee would
organize a chance, and it is not doubt
ed that tho local committees would
take action in the premises if the facts
and circumstances which we have
brought to view in this articlo were
well understood. Hut to make them
understood, the local presses should
explain them, as wo doubt not they
will do.
We commend this subject, therefore,
to tho instant attention of Democratic
newspapers everywhere, in cities,
towns and country, and rospectfully
urgo them to explain to their roaders
now, before tho campaign opens, how
cneaply speoches can bo ohtained
from the Congressional Committee,
but how unreasonable it is to expect
individual members of Congress to
purehaso and distribute them at their
solo expense. Tho trouhh of franking
and sending them will be cheerfully
borne by Congressmen, but tho cost of
purchasing ought not to bo added to
thoir other burthens.
Tho Boston "Cretans" are making
a demonstration upon Congress to
procure a recognition of Crete, as a
power, and to free her from Turkish
Caliphs, Tashas and satraps. All
well but do not theso Boston Cretans
ofton think of our Crcto, thus gov
erned from the l'otomao to the Rio
Grando f Tho Turkish Minister here,
Illacque Bey, is reported to bo think
ing of asking Turkey to interposo for
our American Croto.

'CLEARFIELD, PA., THURSDAY, MAY 21, 18G8. NEW
The llroktn Hearted.
Goorgo D. Trontico is, perhaps, best
known as a wit, punster and political
writer. But from his facilopen flows
also tho sentimental and the beautiful.
Tho following description has lost
none of its freshness and beauty:
"About two years ago 1 took up my
residence for a few weeks in a country
village in the eastern part of New
England. Soon aftor my arrival lbe
camo acquainted with a young lady,
apparently about sevonteen yoars of
age. She had lost the idol 01 nor heart s
purest love, and the shadows of deep
and l.o'y memories were resting like
tho wing of death upon her brow.
1 first met her in the presence ot the
mirthful. Sho was indeed, a crcaturo
to be admired ; her brow was garland
ed by the young year's s woe test flow
ers and her sunny tresses wero hang
ing beautiful and low upon her bosom,
and sho moved through tho crowd
with such floating, unearthly grace
that tho bewildered gazer looked
almost to seo her fade away into the
air like the'ereation ofa pleasant dream.
Sho smiled, but thore was somotuing
in her smile which told mo that its
mournful beauty was but the reflection
of a tear, and her eyelids at times
pressed heavily down, as if struggling
to repress the "lido of agony that was
bursting up from her hearts secret
urn. She looked as if sho could have
lotl tho scene of festi vitv, and gone on
beneath tho quiet stars, and laid her
toruhead down upon tho fresh, green
earth, and poured out her stricken
soul gush after gush, till it mingled
with the eternal lountain 01 purity
and life.
I have lately heard that tho young
lady of whom I have spoken, is dead.
Iho close of ber lite was calm as the
falling of a quiet stream, gentlo as the
sinking of the broezo that lingers for a
tinio round a bed of withered roses,
and then dies for very sweetness.
Itcannot bethat earth is man's only
abiding place. It cai.not bo that our
lite is a bubble cast up by the ocean of
eternity, to float a moment upon its
suriace. and then sink into nothing
ness and darkness forever. Elso why
is it that tho high and glorious aspira
tions which leap like angols from tho
temple of our hearts aro forever wan
dering abroad unsatisfied f Why is it
that the rainbow and tho cloud come
over us with a beauty that is not of
earth, and then pass ot and leave us
to muse on their faded loveliness: W by
is it that tho stars which hold their
festival around tho throno aro set
above tho croup of our limited facul
ties, and forever mocking ns with their
unapproachablo glory f And, finally,
why is it that forms of human beauty
are presented to the viow and then ta
ken away from us, leaving tho thous
and streams of affections to flow back
in an Alpine torrent upon our hearts f
Tiie Tornado. A great storm pas-
sod over a portion ot Iowa and llii
noia, on the iid instant uprooting tim
bcr, destroying orchards, bouses and
barns. N ind, rain and hail, (the lat
tcr as largo as hen's eggs, killing hor
ses and cattle,) were the acoompani
tnenls, which done thoir terrible work
Tho I'eoria (III.) Transcript, among
otUerdotails, gives the following treak
of tho lightning : "During tho hail
storm that visited this section, tho
eastward bound tram on the Tolodo,
I'eoria and Warsaw, railway had just
left hi l'aso as the storm struck it.
When about a mile and a half east of
that city, tho lightning struck a tele
graph pole, it burst the insulator, ma
king a Haze of liirht, passed on the
wire to the noxt insulator and burst
that. It then ran down the pole and
leaned to the track, and ran back
without doing any damago, until it
struck the engine. It then ran up
one of tho drivers and burst a section
of two feet out of the solid tire, and
passing along tho boiler, without do
ne any damage, it reached the lever
and went upwards with a blaxo of
liht ermilar to that on the telegragh
wire, and with a dotonation liko a
small cannon. So intense was the
light, and so violent tho shock, that
tho engineer was nearly blinded and
almost ulunned. Our informant says
that the appearance of tho light on
the track and on the wires was bril
liant beyond conception ; it looked a
if thore was an immense lake of fire
ahead into which the train was about
to plunge and the contrast between
the light and the ordinary daylight
that followed, seemed as great as that
between the brightest day and the
darkest night.
Aw UitccKT Divobci James M.
Grant, of Bridgnort, recently obtained
a divorce from his wife Julia, and the
fact was announced in the Bridgport
Farmer. The next day Mrs. Grant
informed the public, through the col
umns of the pa mo paper, that the no
tico was tho first sho had heard of the
matter. Last week Mrs. Grant re
ceived information from England that
a decoased rclativo had left her be
tween 180,000 and $90,000, and Mr.
Grant is said to be somewhat dis
gusted at the turn which affairs havo
taken, nnd is fruitlessly lamenting
that divorce. Sirs. Grant will bo re
collected by our citizons as a resident
of Hartford for a considerable period,
and as esneeiallv distinguished for her

A conductor on a Connecticut rail
road passed free a poor penniless chap
recently. An officer of tho road in
the same car called him to an account.
"I pass him," said the man of tickets,
"because he's a conductor on the
railroad." "Ho a -ondnctor! why,

"Ob, he's trying to live on his salary,"

"Stock in thi Mod." Gen. Grant's
father commonced a biography of
Ulysses in which ho relates the fol
lowing foat of his boyhood :
"Ho bet half a dozon marbles with
a victim by tho namo of Marshall
that he would jump twenty-five foct
at a single leap. The bet was taken,
he won it by jumping from perpon
dicular bluff twenty-five fot hik'h,
landing on a bod of soft nud, into
which he sunk up to his middlo, where
ho stuck fust until pulled tut by his
lather. ,
Tho General has a propensity for
jumping into the mud. He struck a
very soft bed in Washington, and the
jacobins appeal to the people to pull
bim out.
Mori Caution. Persons who take
out Travelers' Insurance policies
should not carry thorn about thorn on
the very trips against which they
insure themselves. Amongthoso bod
ies found last week upon the Erio
liuilroad, were soverai upon which
Accidental Insuranco policies were
found, and no doubt many were de
stroyed. In tho pocket of one man,
half of whoso clothes were burnt off,
was found a Traveler s Insiranco pol
iey for (5,000. If it had been in the
opposito pocket, it would have been
lost.

A party of negroes killed a stocr

Mr. Lewis, liring near Warrens
