PRINCIPLES
CLEARFIELD, PA , WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER
ty years after his Iales court mar
tial. If llio creatures of lirunt and
Grant himself do not dream every
night of mpus about their necks, It is
bccnuHo they uro ns much fool ns
knuvo.
Tho old, stulo, und oft repented
charges, ubout resisting the drufl, ou
cotiruging our brethren at llio .South,
has noithcr significance or nonso, und
serves only for u sot of poor, unnoticed,
unnecessary, unimportant, mid worth
less fools, (who, from tear of tbo draft
or for largo bounties, went into the
Abolition urmy,) lo keep ulivo their
great military achievements as pa
trons of sick hospitals, ol which "Auli
Ku Klux" waft no doubt n distinguish
ed member.. If it were not foe these
occasional outbursts of cheap patriot
ism of our compatriots of negroes in
the crusado itguinsl tho principles of
'Tli, llio Cramers nnd supporters of Iho
Po'iluriilion of Independence, the reso
lulions of 'i'H and the Constitution ol
our vountrv, even tho few ignorutit
admirers ol theso Kncuka would cease
to recollect their daring deeds among
tho women and children of tho South
nnd tho hen roosls of ull who were
unforliiiialo enough to livo along the
lino of their raids. 1 believo I buvo
never yet been craven enough to deny
my true, sincere nnd heartfelt sympa
thy, strong, fervent und abiding, with
tho Southern people. Il was not lack
of tourago, .Sir. Auti-Ku Klux. that
prevented forcible resistance to the
meiciless und illegal drullt), but pru
dence dictated, not by cowardice but
wisdom, being then under tho iion
ruleol despotism und force, innuuguru
ted by the ticud Lincoln, (the JIaviiuu,
half devil nnd less than half human,
begotten by Iho I'rinro of Evil, und
spewed from tho cunicrous and rotten
womb ol crimo in the revolting lap of
civilization.) iho diurrlxLvi corps,
ullcd tbo "brave soldiers, did not
bother any one beyond infecting nil
Willi whom they camu in contact with
lice und stealing whatever they could
lay their bunds on.
Your boasting uUeranccB nbout the
lalo Abolition war have no meaning.
There can bo no parallel between il
und tho next war, which your putty
seems uuxious lo hasten. Tbo fuv.1
was n conflict of ono en tiro seel ion of
tbo country against tho other; but
tho next, if it must come, will boa
blow of Democrats und conservatives
against the Mongrels, or a conflict bo
tween white men uml their Ii tends ami
negroes and their friends. It w ill not
bo any more tho North against the
South, but Iho Constitution against
the ' reiitnlialors," law itguinsl revolu
tion. Your puity proliss that they
titc ready for the light. Well, if i hey
succeed in bringing it on, 1 hope they
will be prepared also fordeulli. Winn
such a conflict takes placo it will bu
soon over, for llio nigger party w ill
be soon under. Then your w ind bagi
will not have the Irish and the Dutch
and the Democrats to tight their bai
lies us belore. Yours will bo in the
main un urmy of old sneaks und young
counter jumpers; un army for tho
most part ull tongue und legs mighty
of longuo und pretty Boon stvilt of
leg. liul for tho Irish nnd Democrats
tho whole of tho lalo war would have
been u Bull Hun affair from beginning
to end. Then let the war come, il it
is tho only way out of the negro dun

Shaded means being in n slate of oh

shaded light is one which tho light of

and if u Blrny beam is admitted, il is
sickly and leeble, and not sullicienl lo
Ciist u real pleasure by ils ray a life
w hich is obscured by llio inicrcepliuti
of some trouble ; either real or iiniigin
ury. Some lives uio in continual
shadow' ; others nro in fcbmiow only
for u time ; and there are a few who
seem to balc in sunlight ut ull times
Tbeio lite inutiy shaded or darkened
lives; lrcqiienlly, they are lives ol
person who deserve but little, if uny
sympathy j for they uro so entirely
wrapped up in themselves or their
gloom, ns to bo totally oblivious of the
pleasure and comfort of other. They
go through lilo with llio twilight ol

no use lor the glorious sun, Iho bright

MARRIED IN OALICQ. '
A yonit!; lady in Chicago, whoas,.
wedding wus to hnvo taken placo on,
Thursday, October lOlh, in cliutch,
whoso "trousseau," with all modern
elegancies, was ready, and whoso,
bridal presents woro in a state of obi
gant "forwardness," found herself, on
Monday, October Utlj, minus "trous
seau," presents, house and homo.
Tho other substantial requirements
for "keeping jiouso," und for duily
costume and rofiuiroinetits, wero ul.so
a "total losa.'l Thu bridegroom wus
in n Bitnilsr if not worse predicuineiit,
und the church w hero thu ceremony
was to have taken placo wan a heap,
ol blackened ruins.
Hero was a question of unusual iut
porlanco before llio joint family ooiiti
cil. Put, it is more Ihun probable
that it tbo young p.o ip'o wont into
tho caucus, they went in as the peoplu
usually do into conference, with their
minds madcap For on A'ednosduy,
with only a delay of twenty fomj
hours, tho twain were mudo one;
the lady appearing on the iitteresiing
occasion in a calico dross, thu only
dress saved from tlio fire. The gen
tleiuutt, if he is a gentleman, ns Irotn
hi connections, ho is presumed lo bo,
was bubiicd iu u similar unpretending
guise. No gentleman would outshine
Ins bride on their wedding day. As
in ull "fashion reports" tho gentle
man's costume is tin reported, woman's
rights in this particular being rigidly
respected.
The gentleman is to be congratulated
on having found, in the ruins of the
fire, 11 pi i.e which ho might otherwise
havo boon ull hi life in discovering.
Ho might buvo worn the jewel, whose
price is above riches, all hi days,
without knowing ils vulue. Put the
great slid terrible disaster, the tlato
ol" w hich will mark the bogitininir of
the married life of this young con pi 0,
will equally murk tho beginning of
their nuptial happiness. .Men nnd
women lire much more usoltil and es
sential to each other in poverty und
adversity ihun in wealth and prosper
ity. Those two, with life before thorn,
have the pleasure and advuntugo of
striving together to secure life's piizes.
And whatever of this world's goods
and convenience they muy secure, will
he a joint acquisition all the moro
valuable thut they buvo in their pov
erty und belongings a mutual interest.
More than '.ho usual degree ot con ti -deuce
must bo loll in her husband by
u wile w ho dares to marry under such
circumstance. And more than 11 hus
band's usual love and protection must
be given to the wile who so unreserv
edly trusts in him. Every man thinks,
or would bo glad lo think, thai his
wife is n "superior woman." This
young man knows it. For his bride,
il she cannot '-conirol circumstances,"
docs not permit "circumstatict s" u,q
dlily o control hir.
Of course improvident nnd careless
matrimonial alliance are not to bo
defended or promoted. In Ibis case,
however, there is no evidence of iho
undertaking being mudo "unadvisedly
or lightly." And the present arlifieiul
and ambitious customs of society hnvo
interposed so many oiijcuuou lo mar
riage in its higher and better condi
tion, that il seems lo require tbo
bit ruing of a cily to set such ol jeclions
aside. Young people tire too often
un willing to "cominonee life" together.
They uro loo ambitious of beginning
life in the wealth und style ol living
to which their parents have ultaiiicd
wily ufiera long life ol labor and dili
gence. Whatever pleasure wealth
properly used may collier, nothing in
the possession is so pleasant ns tho
gt'i.tilication of acquiring. To look
lorirard is mini's truo incentive and
happiness. The future oilers the cheer
ful 0111 look, and mutt anil wile should
enjoy it together. Then, tho retro
spect also, is plea-ant liul for two
fatigued individual, worn and weary
with labor and wailing whatever
that labor ami wailing may have pro
duced tiicin to think they can como
together ni.d enjoy married life, when
there is liitlo or nothing In look for
ward to, is simply iibsind. Tbero is
quite 11s much truth as poetry in the
lauious babul of "John Andeison, my
Joe." though l:i-!iioiiiible yoiing ladies
prefer r.iore fashionable ntnsie w ith
moro "excctil ion" and less heart in it.
