that the President expressed hia detsrmiaurioa to

Xow, what right linn Gonornl Grant

claims that brute forco is law? tho
same which tho rob bo v and briirnnd

oppressed by such a creature. And
by virtue ot tho Constitution ot tlio
Slate and the United Stales bo it a
traitor, and may be triod and bunc
tlio instant the authority of law can
orortuko li i in. There is an indcslruct-
ublo right of ull people to self govern
ment, and neither Congress nor any
of its lictors, nor tho debauched indi
vidual who pollutes the VYhito llouso,
has any power to deprive them of such
right, ll isa universal right conferred
by God and Nature, and lias been
claimed over since tho world beK1"1-
Tho American peoplo should read
tlio words of th'iB telegrum with hearts
of fire and nerves of sled ; and marl
well the wonls, "dutemuncil to declare
(strong words,) "martial law through
out tho ontiro South." Not in spocifio
localities, but throughout tho entire
length and brcndlh of tho South not
alone where illegal acts may havo
been dono by contiivanco of tho tools
of tho government, but everywhere,
this enthroned bruto, called a Presi
dent of tho United Slates, threatens
lo appoint military satraps, and cull
them Governors, to overthrow tho
civil laws of Slules. Jiy proclamation
bo orders elections, and when held ac
cording lo their diction, bo sotn tlioin
by another proclamation, lias tlio
world over beheld such a spectacle 7
Can tho history of tho world, recod
ing bade fora thousand years, produce
nny tiling like it? Hut wo, in this en
lightened century, proud ofour nation
ality, proud ofour fame, proud ol hav
ing tlio "best government tno worm
ever saw; onusune ol our ucniovo
mcnls and proud in our debase
ments, indeed, wo seem anxious to
imituto Africa, to show a degreo of
intellect and courugo equal to the luzy
and brutish negroes on tho banks of
tho Congo. Sinco tho sudden exit ol
tho Abolition monster who called him
self the government, Congress lias put
on his shirt, (I do not cull it mantle,)
and carried on in its own numo tho
implacablo despotism; using tho lia-
leuu lunncr, smoker unu wiiisKy-gur.-
ller, for which tho namo of tho rail
splitter was formerly tho shibboleth.
Ana still, prociumuiiuns nru neu in
tho half of whul wus oueo the Union.
How long will it bo beforo the same
thing will bo practiced among us here
in tho Norlb? Men clad with des
potic authority appoint elections and
remove civil ollicers by edicts and
nroclumationt. Witness tlio conduct
of Sheridan in the stricken city of
Chicago a few days ago, when this
debaucliod villian, bloated with bis
military authority and beastly capaci
ty for gin, took possession of a hotel
there to reguhtto the price of boarding
and to give him free access to the
rum which his bloated carcass coveted.
Who gave Phil. Sheridan the right to
tuko possession of tho property of any
man in tlio freo Stnto of Illinois, who
violated no lutf, and was socking only
to get amid scarcoty and high prices
proper renumcration for his moat,
broud and bed, from tho idle specta
tors who wero flocking to Chicago
alter the tiro to gralily a morbid curi
osity, to feast on the ruins, and per
haps admire the plumes and strut, and
bombast and blout of tbo greet Win
chester rider f
This conduct of a military satrap is
only the outcropping of the despotism,
which is, step by slop, and clinch by
clinch, fastening itself upon tho peo
ple, or, will it bo necessary to convinoo
you of the designs of our rulers, by
culling your attention to tho brutal
murder of Mr. lirosvonor, who wns
cruelly and brutally shot deud in tho
streets of Chicago by a man claiming
that ho ooleu unticr tlio military or
dors of .General Sheridan and Colonel
Sherman, who had exactly the snmo
rijlit and no more to shoot that Har
der nac to siao 1'ato ana m tinier iiitn
in our streets last summer?. This
military horde arrogated to thorn
selves power which belonged to the
Constitution and laws of tho Stuto of
Illinois, and tlio man who violated
that law and killed .Mr. Grosvonor, is,
in the eye of the law and beforo high
Heaven, a murderer, and Phil. Sheri
dan and Frank bhcrman uro his aides,
abettors and assistants, and should, to
vindicate the outraged law of the State
of Illinois, bo swung upon tho same
gallows. Lot tho peoplo, U, let them
pause but for one moment, und ponder
well tho situation I It mny bo yet
liino to save our liberty. J(ul, if tho
ordinary forms fail, and the purty of
liberty ol tins country tecs mat law
Will Dot restore llicin thoir rights,

PRINCIPLES)
CLEAEFIELl), PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER
Ing whether they aro just or unjust,
good or bad, the lifo and deitlh of tho
best men of tho nation will bo exposed
to chance, and cither saved or de
stroyed, as may suit tho whim
and caprice of tho proclaimcr, who
manages to koop in training tools ever
roudy to plunder private property,
murder non-otl'ciidcrs and innocent
poonlo. What tyrant of aneiunt or
modern times ever olferod to wield
such u wide and merciless despotism
as this which enters into tho plans of
tho men at Washington ? They would
da io to subject to the horrors of mar
tini, or, more properly speaking, bruto
force, a turgor extent of territory thai
that of all Europo. Can it bo possiiib
that tho military commanders who
daro consent tuseu vo in snub a sw;ii
ing despotism Imvo no knowled'O of
history t Aro they ignorant ana
thoughtless enough to vupposo thut
the manhood is all crusiied out ol a
onco bravo people, that they can bo
inado to cower long under such an
oppression? Would not even tho
women una themselves with strych
nine, if they find no othor resourco
loft them, to protect and presorvo
thut which is dearer thun lifo ? Ter
rible thoughts ! but is not tho thought
of tho merciless grip of tyranny which
it is proposed to fusion upon the
throats of a whulo peoplo, more terri
ble ? A feeble knowledgo of law, of
tho principles of government, und his
tory, convinces mo that it wore bolter
every tyrant and ovory tool of tyrun
ny on earth should bo sent mercilessly
into otornitv. rather thun that the
principles of olornal justieo should bo
overthrown and tho liberties of tho
nution destroyed. Thcro can bo no
coinpromtso with tyranny in tins
country. Either it and its aiders,
abettors and assistcrs must perish or
tho people must bo destroyed. Who
ever thinks othcrwiso bus never read
history, or ho is constitutionally a ras
cal. It won't do to wasto time on
such infamous characters.
Thcro is ono eternal truth constantly
staring us in the face, and it esys wo
have no more right to govern IhoSoulli-
orn people llinn they havo to govern
us in tho same miinner. X heir right
lo self government liko ours is anteri
or to tall law and compacls. It is a
natural, incommunicable, indestrucll
blo,un dcternul right. A fight which
they hold from tlio Almiglrty Maker
and Rulerof tho universo, und which it
is their right and duly to maintain
even ut tho sacnlleo ot every lite
which threatens it. That is the luwand
tho t ight of tho mutter. And tho Al
mighty grunts us no patents to govern
uny body of peoplo but ourselves and
whoever chosea lo bo governed by us
Lot Mr. General Grant bo taught that
among all virtuous and intelligent
.nr,f,t thn wnoP. SA i-M nnt. ..'no
ways aeain. now truiy tno great
prophet Isaiah describes tlio character
of 'oiirgovernmont !" How truthfully
his wisdom penetrated the unlalnoined
fuluro ! Hear what bo suys about
Grant and bis lictors: "lhy rulers
uro rebellious and tho companions of
Ihievcs. J'.vcry ono lovelh qiitt and
follawelh after rewards." Wo havo n
sti iking illustration of proclamations
in tho book ot hsihor. A wicked vii-
iun (a Ilcast Roller, or a Kit Klux
chairman, Scott,') having imposed Un
a foolish king with litlse stories ol tho
Jews, ho at onco issued a prodmna-
lion, a la Giant, lor thoir extermina
tion ; but, soon after, being informed
of tlio truth, which it seems ho would
only listen to, in imitation of our
ruler, when lull ot wine or winsny, no
gnvo them leave in another proclama
tion (how easy) to kill whom they
pleased, and tho result was they
slaughtercd sovcnly-fivo thousand
men. lct proclamations obtain tno
power of laws, and tho business is
dono for this country.
Now, our duty Is plain. Just now,
while we are living in tho gloomy and
beastly waning ot an adtninislrati in
which substitutes proclamations lor
laws and tho wild caprices of intoler
ant faction for tho sacred mandutot of
toiistltulionul government, our first
. i.ti
ami grout uuty it to put, an enu iu uu
such abominations as proclamations
und military orders. The peoplo aro
tho great soureo ol strength and pow
er. Then let us maKo an onu oi mem ;
if not othorwiso, by ending tho tyrants
who uttor lliom. Tho iudill'eront
drone, content to wear his chains,
ralhor than movo his Iaiy body to
shako them off, will start and shrink
and shudder for fear tho very-thought
should make his own shadow nlivo.
Tho bond robber and tax tyrtnt. will
clutch still tighter the ragged ensigns
of. plundor, and scowl mid hiss in im
potent rugo. But thoro are somo bold,
brave men, who will stand, by the
shield of nomocracy. Their nitmbor
now is at least a million greater than
tho number of those who sook to du
stroy our government now wot ten
yoart ago. We aro today an actual
physical majority of tho whole coun
try, and when onco tho peoplo earn
oslly say that proclamations and mill
tiiry orders shall slop, wo will see no
moro of such things in this land. Il
tbo same pluck and patriotism was
currotit in this country fur tho last six
years that was hero in 1770, wo would
long ago havo beheld tho termitiatioii
of proclamations as substitutes lor
Inw. That spirit is rapidly being ro
kindled. Let our rulers heed it, ami
thereby seek immunity from toe fate
of nil tyrant.

of what these explorers huvo found in

which roll tlioir waters bctwoon Spittz
hergon and Nova Zembla ; but enough
is already known to vorily tho dis
coveries of Kuno and to bear out in
all tlioir length and bread th of mean
ing tlio deductions of American phy
sieists, which, for moro thun three
years, havo been urged upon tho
scientific world, and which so strik
ingly pointed tho Arclio explorer to
tho very spot where triumph has now
been won. If our transatlunlic breth

When tho Royal Society of London
begun its career, the poet Cowley, in
bis famous "Annus Mirubilis," sung
its famo in anticipation, and predicted
in glowing numbers a time when it
should loud men to tho very verge of
tho globe:
When wo upon the glotie's last verge shall go,
And view the ocean leaning on the sky ;
From thence our rolling nriglilsirs we shall kuow,
And uu the luuar world seuurely pry.
Rut in this cat.0 it is not the Royal
Society ot London thut has led us to
the extremity of tlio planet. The
presont expedition was not projected
nor was it much favored by the Eng
lish navigators who havo so long
boasted ol t'to niarilimo supremacy of
Britannia. While the most influential
British seamen havo been trying to
persuade the world that there was no
liopo tor Polur discovery in the region
along which tho American Gull Stream
projects itself into tho Arctic llasin,
tbo event of a successful exploration
bus answered and overthrown their
argn menu.
While the Herald was preparing the
articlo of Thursday, suggesting tho
possibility of a commander taking a
ship through tho Arcliu ico belt, as
Ross and ' Weddell took their ships
through tho Atlantic ico holt, tho mail
was bringing us tlio tidings that our
aillrrCSlioll W lrod.y fait aroam
It will bo seen, by refcrenco lo Dr.
Petermarn's circular, that tho cnliro
success of tho present movement is to
bo utlributcd lo this warm current of
the Gull Stream, which, in this coun try,
lliroo yours ago, Captain Silas Bent
first suggested, and another American
demonstrated, would furnish tho truo
"thermometrio gutowuy to tho Polo."
The highest temperature in the frozen
seas and the most propitious circum
stances for moving towards the Pole
have now been proved to exist just
whoro the "thernioinclrio" theory
said they should exist. Wo know
that Levvriier indicated on his celes
tial map just where tlio telescope
would find tho planet Neptune; but
the French astronomer was not more
unerring in his work l bun our physi
cists have been.
lr. Pctermann interprets his intelli
gence in this light, and claims also
tlio sliaro lo which he is so justly
entitled, in basing all his lulo recom
mendations for Arctic exploration up
on tho hypothesis that the Gull Stream
is tho potent agent in breaking up or
loosening tho ico cordon which girds
tho circumpolur aroa, and he indulges
in somo warmth of expression (par.
donublo, perhaps, under tlio circum
stances i against Captain Kolduwey,
who prejudiced the public mind against
bis views.
Ciiplnin Shcrrard Osborn, of the
Royul Navy, a man of fine intellect
and great geographical learning, has
been always set against even an ex
periment in tho regions where Payer
and Wevprccht havo found tho exten
sion of R anc's open sea, audio Osborn't
stubborn prolonged opposition is per
haps duo tho fuel that bilherlono lair
trial has been made in those quarters.
Although the expedition of Captain
Hull has not taken this route it is by
no means to bo supposed that ho will
not be able to aernniplisli tbo end ol
his expedition. Fu front it. On tho
contrary, indeed, tho physical infer
ence to bo drawn clearly is thut Hall
will find, perhaps iu lutiludu a little
higher, tho vory sumo open wuter,ancl
that with his well known "push" and
indomitable energy ho will penetrate to
the vory sea whose billows and whoso
tides wero first witnosscd by the gal
lunt Kuno.
Tho result of theso achievements in
Arctio navigation will doubtless pro
voko widespread and honorable emu
lation among nil tho maritime Powers,
who will iu with Germany In Iho
prosocution of geographical research.
Scienco may bo congratulated now as
having made another stepping stone
into tho heart of tho Polar world, and
she will doubtless seizo upon it ut an
curly day for pushing forward many!
important inquiries and investigations.
If Lieutenants Payer and Woy
precht havo been ablo to advance so
far mid so lato in the season us Sep-1
lember, in a small sailing vessel, thcro
is renewed ami redoubled reason for
believing, as tho ILrM pointed out
somo days ago, that "with un iron
steamer armed with a circular ico saw
at her prow, an experienced comman
der might, as Ross ditl, mako his way
entirely through tho barrier of float
ing leu islands, and, having reached
the Polar sido of it, movo on uninter
ruptedly lo the Polo."
rjii'tli, Iu tho Antarctic, was tho
brilliant experienco of Rous: such
was tho repoutod experienco of Vod
uoll, so tli.tt Ihey discovered i.it open
South Polar Sea, just at Ktno and
Payer and Woyprecht havo sinoo dis-.
covered an open Norlh Polar Pes.

Tho evidence of open water at both
oxtromitius of tho glubo seems now to
bo demonstrated, and with this demon
stration will follow tho solution of
many serious and vexed questions of
meteorology ami hydrography. Tho
telegram embodied in Dr. Petermunn's
circular gives us tho substruueo ol the
news; but wo shall doubtless soon
huvo from tho explorers, who, on the
Ud of October, wero at Tromsol, on
tlioir return, fuller and more detuiled
accounts of ull thut they saw und did
in those regions so longdrcaded by tho
mariner. It is possible thai they arc
returning to Germany for now equip
ments or a new vessel, to enable thorn
in the early spring lo push onward
and polewrud, so us lo attain tho full
mcasuro ofsuouusii wuicu is oviduiitly
now within their grnsp. Tho lateness
of tho season when thoy discovered
tho Polynia in latitude seventy-nine
degroe enht ol -Greenwich may, of
coureo, explain why they could not ut
onco finish thoir labors. But wo shall
patiently wait to hear llicic own ex
planation. Tho fact that they dis
covered an opon sea, stretched through
eighteen degrees of longitude and
through at least seventy miles of
lutilude, bhowsthnl it was not u moro
pool or ico hole which they saw. This
favorito mode of explaining away tho
importance ol Kane's discovery is now
unquestionably exploded. Whether
tho open sea they found uctually louds
ull tho way to tho North Polo or not,
ono thing is certain tho Polynia itsell
is un established fact. Is there no
Amorican cxploror willing to join next
spring in the great research ? X

Friendships. Somo peoplo won
dor why il is that they poseej.i no
friends. They live in lino houses,
dress in costly garments, appear in
royal tiirnouts.and scatter thcirmoney
with a jirodigal baud, but somehow
their neighbors shun them, and people
of far less means aro received und
pusscd ulong iu society from which
they uro excludod. Tho fault rests
wholly willi themselves. Ten to one
if everything they do is not prompted
by sellish motives, which are so uppa
rent as to repel ovoryhody but par
asites and lcccli04. It is within tho
power of ull to make and keep friends
if wo bold selfishness oil' ut tirm's

For the Ladies. Instead of eulli
valing strong minded notions and con
tending for a right lo divide their
time between the ballot box and the
cradle, women will find il an advant
age to school tlioir nervous system
and ussuro themselves uguirst panics
even upan great occasions. The latest
blow at woman rights comes from
tlio Insurance companies, who have
concluded not to insure females against
accidents on railroads and steamboats.
Tho excuse of tho companies is, that
when an alarm of firo is raised on a
railroad or steamboat, tho ladies are
usually thrown into such a blato of
terror that accidents aro almost sure
to follow : and lhat tho losses in the
past, under this head, has been very
much greater than tho gains. Risks
against killing outright they still nc
cept, while declining to insure against
patliul injury, Iho seemingly arbitrary
action of tho companies is regarded
with considerable disfavor by hus
bands who have, hertoforo taken out
policies lor their wives, so that, in the
event ol injury thoy might bo enabled
to pay nurses' and doctors' bes, with
out having to draw on their bankers.

havo still to receive full accounts ol
tho tragedy, but wo know already
lhat five hundred unfurlunato people
havo perished. Tim vitiligo is some
seven miles from tho Inn bor, und on
a Sunday evening tho baino wind pro
bably that worked tho ruin of Chicago,
blowing with tho forco of u hurricane,
funned tho smouldering fire in tlio
locusts acound into a blazu and drove
tho firo inlo tho village. This wus

than ten minutes the unliru village
was in flames, many poor peoplo, who
had retired for tho night, hud not
Li tno to escape: from their homes, and
were burned nlivo in their own homes.
There was no possibility nf clacking
tho flames nnd tho surrounding forest,
presented ono mass of firo. Tho peo
plo could only fly to tho river for
safety. Those living in close proxim
ity to tho water reached it and waded
in till it reached their necks. Hero
they remained Irom two to four hours
und by wetting their heads Wero able
to cseiipo with life. But many were
hndly Tjiiriied about the head and face
while in I li o witter. .Many were
drowned. Others, women und children
died from tho exposure. Thoso who
lived only one or two streets from the
river wero stricken down by tho
flatncrt, and burned to death before
reaching tho water, whole families
wero destroyed. In tho morning the
streets wero strewn with but tied
bodies.
Eight or nino bodies in one corner
wero found near together. Ono fami
ly, consisting of father, mother and
six children, wero luu ml deud togeth
er within three feet of the water. It
is impossible to give a correct estimate
of the loss of life. Il is supposed that
tho inmates of tho Peshligo Compa
ny's boarding house, ono hundred and
upwards iu number nearly all perish,
ed. Every report from tlio neighbor
hood settlements bring information of
houses burned und many lives lost
Tho immenso pail factory and largo
sawmill, nnd tho store', bridges, loco
motives and curs were burned und
evcry-kind of properly destroyed.
As soon as thu tiro lia-1 sullicicntly
subsided, all lhat wero able went to
tho relief ol tho sulfjrers. Blackened,
charred corpses were lying in every
direction, wilh their clothing as a
general thing, nearly or quite burned
oir. Many dead bodies wero foutd tn
tlio river, und many more havo since
been recovered. A number have died
from their bruises, while others are
crippled or fearfully disfigured. Iho
