WEDNESDAY„ MAY 10, 1865
The above is a cut of the Press
on which the ADVERTISER is print
ed this week. It is one of the cele
bated "Campbell Country News
paper and Job Presses," and an
swers every purpose designed.—
The superior workmanship and fa
cility with which we will now be_
enabled to do all work in the print
ing line, will no doubt secure for
ns not only a, large addition to our
already large subscription list, but
also an increased patronage in job
bing and advertising.
Our new press is driven by a
beautiful and compact.3-horse-pow
er Engine, mhde by the Messrs.
Weimer & Brothers, of this place,
which, for a small power, cannot
be surpassed by anything yet in
vented.
We have now what may be call
ed a complete Country Newspaper
and Job Office, and take pleasure
in inviting our friends and the craft
to its inspection.
O An order has been issued by
Gen. Halle*, at Richmond, allowing
all Rebels, without regard to Rank
or employment in the civil or milita•
ry service of the late rebel govern
ment, to take the oath of amnesty.
ser Nine hundred men havebeen
discharged from the Springfield Ar
mory, and four hundred from the
Watertown Arsenal. The Mississip
pi squadron is to be reduced from
over one hundred vessels to twenty
five. Several hospitals in Washing
ton are being closed up, and all the
forts but four are to be placed on a
peace footing.

were finally interred at Oak Ridge
Cemetery,. Springfield,- Illinoia, Oil
Thursday last. The ceremonies were
imposing and appropriate.
It was reported last week that
a plot to burn Philadelphia had been
discovered. It afterwards appeared
that the plot was only a scheme of
certain pi ize fighters and their friends,
to engage the attention of the police
in guarding the city so carefully that
they would not go out to interfere
with a "mill," which was to take place
in the suburbs of the city.
Otr The war in I b liittedelphia be.:
tween the Passenger Railway Com
panies, and the negroes and their.
political friends, still continues,.and
since the big war is over is fanning
itself into a flame. One company
was fined $5O lasi week for not per
mitting a colored woman to ride in
the cars, and a political friend of the
negro had his foot run over by a car
while trying to force a negro froth
the street into it. It seems that the
one party dont want the negroes in
the cars and the other dont want
hini on the streets, eo between the
two ho has a hard road to travel. A
good many country newspaper edi
tors, who probably do not ride n the
city cars more than once or twice a
year, are very anxious to have the
company of negroes when they do
so, and consequently are making a
big fuss about the matter. When
will people learn to mind their own
business ?
TITUEIVILLE.-T h e correspondent
of the Petroleum Reoorder, New York
gives the following terse description
of Titusville, which, he says, consists
of eighteen inches of mud, ground up
into a paste, which is rather a fluid
than a solid, one thousand houses,
one hundred and fifty derricks, half
a dozen churches, fifty or sixty steam
engines, one theatre, two banks, four
or five schools, two miles of wooden
sidewalks, one hundred oil cisterns,
seven thousand five hundred people
(including three thousand spectators
and traders, yclept transient popu
lation), two thousand five hundred
barrels of oil, several hotels, which
have "struck". more oil than any well
diggers in this quarter, a weekly
newspaper, to be issued as a daily be.
fore long, several thousand pigs,
which are excessively excited over
the "surface indications" this spring,
three thousand five hundred pairs of
long-legged boots, which once
were rhiny black, and still retain
some appearance of the original ebo
ny for two inches below the knees, a
railroad debt, which was evidently
constructed under the apprehension
of an early sire. Lot your imagina
tion fill up the picture after reading
this hasty sketch.
SerT he Reading Gazette, in speak
ing of the mob spirit so prevalent in
our country for the past few years,
and particularly again , recently, says,
so completely has the spirit of ter
rorism gained the ascendency that a
Democratic journal dare not con
demn the acts of the mob, except at
the hazard of its own destruction.
Is it not high time that law-abid
ing citizens of both parties should
awake to the necessity of curbing
this dangerous spirit of insubordina
tion. Have we not had enough of it
to show us of how little value our
liberty, our property and our lives
will be, if this lawlessness is not
checked ? To what else must we
charge the murder of Mr. Lincoln ;
the daubing the house of Ex Presi
dent Fillmore with ink ; the threat
ened violence to Ex-President Pierce;
and even the rebellion itself, but to
that spirit of intolerance of opinion,
restlessness under authority, and de.
fiance of law which is all too preva
lent in these, latter days. What are
our boasted constitutional, guaran
tees of freedom of speech and of the
press worth, if their lawful exercise
is to be restrained by the intimida
tions of an unreasoning, irresponsi.
ble, tyrannous moil ? It has been,
heretofore, our boast, as a free Poo
le, that we could entertain and ex
press our differences of opinion on
public matters with perfect security;
and submit their decision to the
peaceful and quiet abitrament of the
ballot-box, without fear of persopal
indignity or harm. But, if things
have come to such a pass that we
cannot differ from men in power, ex
cept at the risk of having our heads
knocked off or our houses demolish
ed, then indeed is our boasted free
dom a mockery.
The New York Tribune, also, a pa.
per that should be - good authority
with the party that, if it does not
justify, endeavors to excuse mob vio
lence against those who, sometimes
are too free in the expression of their
opinions adverse to its policy, has a
realizing sense of the dangers that
are to be apprehended from an at
tempted suppression of free discus
sion either by Government authori
ty, or the terrorism of mobs. Here
is what it says on the subject :
"We have thought it one of the gravest mis
fortunes of the war that the Government or the
people should have thought it necessary to re
strain the freest discussion of public affairs, and
we congratulate the country upon the fact that
a mere minimum of such restraint has been found
sufficient. As peace advances, and the great
public danger becomes less and less, we shall
expect to see the nation return to a practical re
cognition of all those vital and fundamental
principles of liberty which have heretofore been
our pride and 'our boast. We no more want
mental than we wanted personal Slavery. Some
mobs may be better than others ; but there nev
er was a good one yet."
W` In Philadolphia on Thursday
last, a resolution was proposed in Se
lect Council by Mr. Hopkins author
izing the Mayor to offer a reward of
five hundred dollars for the ruffians
who beat Charles Ingersoll. The
resolution was defeated by a strict
party vote fifteen Republican refus
ing to offer the reward, and seven
Democrats in favor of it." Charles
Ingersoll, it will be remembered, had
merely visited his brother in order to
secure bail for him, when he was set
upon and beaten by a lawless mob.
It is passing strange that men who
profess to have sustained the war be.
cause it was to establish the supre
macy of the laws, should themselves
give every encouragement to lawless
n OBS.
In speaking of the authority of the
laws; the Philadelphia Ledger, Re
publican, says :
We hear it reported that at a meeting in Ger.
niantoin an officer of the law took occasion to
denounce very severely the recent assault upon
the Ingereolls., We hope the report is well
founded, but in addition to verbal condemnation
there should be some proper official action' to put
'a stop to such violations of law and order. The
perpetrators of the violence are known. The
prosecuting officer should find a bill, send it to
the grand inquest, and have ajury of citizens to
determinemhether men can, with impunity, con
stitute themselves the guardians of public opin
ion, and punish persons for their sentiments.—
The doctrine established as a sound principle of
civil right is, that a man is amenable only to
the laws for his conduct end his speech. If
there is anything violative of the laws in what
be says or does, the law has the authority, back
ed by the power of the whole people, to 'punish
him for his offense. It never was intended that
he should be amenable to two tribunals, one of
them self constituted and usurpingkehe authority
of the other. It is due to the supreme authority
of the one, that the other should be taught to'
properly respect it."
mg. President Johnson has offered
rewards as follows for the arrest of
the persons named within the limits
of the United States, so that they
may be brought to trial for complic
ity in the assassination of - President
Lincoln :
One hundred thousand dollars re
ward for the arrest of Jefferson Da
vis.
Twenty-five- thousand dollars for
the arrest of Clement C. Clay.
Twenty-five thousand dollars for
the arrest of Jacob Thompson, late of
Mississippi.
Twenty-five thousand dollars for
the arrest of George N. Saunders.
Twenty-five thousand dollars for
the arrest of Beverly Tucker.
Ten thousand dollars for the ar
rest of William C. Cleary, late clerk
of Clement C. Clay.
Otir PENNSYLVANIA refused to al
low the National Government to pay
thb expenses incurred by transport
ing the President's remains through
the State. Gov. Curtin argued that
Pennsylvania would at least do so
much to evince her respect for Mr.
Lincoln's memory, and the whole ex
pense incurred while in the State was
defrayed from its treasury.
O Why is it that the republican
papers are continually harping about
the United States government pay
ing the rebel war debt ? As far as
we know there is no sane and disin•
terested person in the North, at least
not in the Democratic party, who
bas, or ever had, the first idea of such
a thing. It seems to us that these
papers, by constantly ding-donging
about it, desire to keep the matter
before the people ; familiarize them
with it, and in that way, on tho prin
ciple of contraries, make friends to
the proposition. Whether they have
already secured confederate bonds at
a mere trifle, or design doing so, and
then under the cloak of being oppos
ed to their payment, agitate the sub
ject, and trust to luck in making for
tunes out of it, we know not, but
their constant fuss about it has a ten
dency to create a suspicion in that
direction. The idea of paying the
rebel war-debt is a, preposterous one.
They played a win or lose game,—
they lost, and must pay for the piper
;themselves. We have enough debt
to pay ourselves, and he_ who enter
tains any proposition of paying theirs,
or even* is disposed to agitate the
question, one way or the other, must
have sinister motives in doing so. .
The "radical republicans" were
the first to denounce President Lin
coln for his last acts, and they were
the first to declare allegiance to
President Johnson. We now see that
they, too,' will be the first to op
pose him. They are apt to got to fe
ver heat and go off at half-cock. A
report is abroad, coming from conser
vative Republican sources, that Presi
dent Johnson will pursue a mild and
conciliatory course in s - ettling both
the belligerent sections of the. Union
down in peace ; that he will "give the
radicals a wide berth," &c., which has
brought that class of politicians to a
te.rrible state of excitement. These
men have taught the people, in the
last four years, that "to differ with
the administration - was treason."—
They shoUld now bo held to their ICS.
BOW: According to their precepts
they have no right to differ with the
administration, and their doing so
should be construed into "opposing
the government." What is sause for
the goose is muse for the gander.—
We want them to support President
JOhnaon and his policy, not that
their failure to do so will induce
others to incite mobs upon them, as
they have done upon others, but
simply to show the people that they
are consistent, and that they may
learn the pleasure of acting the hyp
ocrite in pretending to believe one
thing when conscience prompts the
contrary. 'Ph ny have -- ignored ct—
dom of speech and of thought; they
should now be taught the value of it.
bar' President johnson.—The New
York Herald says of Andrew J.ohr,-
son, "he has been a Jacksonian Dem
ocrat all his life, believing in State
sovereignty to the extent of allowing
each State to .regulate its own do
mestic concerns, such as the right of
suffrage and so forth—provided only
that the authority of the Union shall
be paramount in all national issues."
THE PLAGUE-A CURIOUS CHAIN O
PROPHECIES.
It would appear that the plague
or some other fearful epidemic has
long been anticipated in Germany.
The first Napoleon, who was very
superstitious, as many great men
have been and are, placed great re•
liance in the predictions of the cele
brated Mlle. Lenormand, well known
as a prophet for nearly forty years;
and also the confidante of his wife.
At the Congress of Aix la Chap
eHe, held in 1818, when Napoleon
was a captive in St. Helena, this same
Lenormand attracted much attention
among the sovereigns, and succeeded
in particularly interesting the Em
peror Alexander of Russia, who, in
deed, bad a strong tendency to mys-
ticism and pietism, which was fos
tered by his friendly intercourse with
Madame Krudener, a religious vision
ary, as well as an avowed seer. Len
ormand and Krudener not only "told
fortunes," but predicted, boldly and
largely; as to the events, of nations,
and it caunot, be denied that their
mysterious, sentences bad weight
with the masses, particularly in Ger.
many.
. In 185341, small pamphlet was pub
'lished in Germany, professing to con
tain a series of prophetic revelations
found among the . papers of Lector
uaand, who had died ten years be
fore, 'at'an adVanced age. It is noto
rious that this pablicatian excited
great attention, and obtained large
credence throughout Germany. It
announced, among other events, that
in the year 1853 there would be a
European war upon Ryssian soil, in
which the eagle and the leopard
would closely bug the bear (the el
der Napoleon always having declar
ed that'the leopard, not the lion, was
the symbolic animal of England);
that after peace had been restored,
the elephant (India) would attempt
to trample down the leopard (Eng ,
land), but would not succeed ; that
•following the war between Russia,
England and France would be an im
mense emigration from Germany to
the west (United States) for many
years ; that the emigrants would
prosper in their new borne, but a
time would come when civil war
would make 'them desire that they
had not left . their faderland ; that,
after the civil war had fearfully rag
ed for four years, peace would be re
stored, and remarkable prosperity
ensue', and that, about the time the
war is the west had ended, a fearful
sickness, commencing in Russia,
would extend across the Baltic, deso
late Germany, cause immense mor
tality in England, and then simulta
neously spread to the oast and to the
west.
SURRENDER OF DICK TAYLOR ON THE
TERMS GRANTED TO JOHNSTON,
MEMPHIS, April 30th via CAIRO,
May 2.—The .Bullet in has a special
despatch which says, it is reported
that the rebel General Dick Taylor
sent General Hodge to notify Gener
al Dana of the surrender of Johnston
to Sherman, and to inform him of the
terms of the surrender. General
Dana immediately gave full credence
to Dick Taylor's statement and ar
ranged an armistice with Hodge, the
terms of which were said to be the
entire cessation of hostilities, each
side retaining
the right to punish
guerrillas. This armistice contem
plates arrangements on the same plan
as that proposed by Sherman, unless
repudiated by General Dana's superi
or officer. The armistice commenc
ed on the 29th of April, and can only
be terminated by a notice of forty
eight hours.

The chaplain had been annoyed ex
ceedingly by the great number of
warriors who were running to him ,
and enquiring about the arrival and
departure of the mails. To save time
and patience he posted a notice out
side his tent which read : "The chap
lain does not know when the mail
will go" and imagined his troubles
at an end. He was absent from camp
that day, and on returning , and glan
cing at the notice vas horrified to
see there upon his own door, 'read by
multitudes during the day, in a hand
exactly counterfeiting his own, the
following words : "The chaplain
does not know who n the mail will
go," and this addition by some wretch
"neither does he care a damn." It
was a case of depravity that he was
unprepared for.
Carelessness of Employees.--
Many thousands of dollars are annually
wasted by the carelessness and neglect
of persons in the employment of others.
A great number of employees never
think, or seem to care, how much of the
property of,their employer is wasted or
destroyed. They do not exercise that
economy with the property of others that
they would with their own, but seem to
think the saving of apparently trifling
matters is not. worth observing, as the
cost is but little, and nothing to them
selves. They do ric,t think or know that
the strictest economy on their part will
be to their own benefit. An employer
will quickly discover economy and care
on the part of a hand, and will reward it
with. increased -confidence. The very
idea of economy is, in a great measure,
the secret of success withmany a young
man. It never fails to be rewarded.

INTERESTING TO OFFICEHOLDERS,
On the lath of March, 1848, the
following resolution was offered in
Congress by President JOHNSON ) then
a member of that body :
"That rotation in office, in the opin ion of this
House, is one of the cardinal tenets in a republi
can form of government, and ought never to be
violated, on any pretensombatever, and should
be practiced upon by all Administrations, re•
gardless of their party names."
Aler If Mr. jouNsoN sti 11 believes
in "rotation," he. has.a chap ce to try
his hand at decapitation. But if he
does; he will he more bored with of•
flee-seekers than he bas been by those
who speak in "behalf of their State."
If the President .commences chang
ing the office holders, there will be a'
lively advance of hungry fellows on

- To be disposed of with dispatch.
WITHOUT REGARD TO COST !
T"goods are of fashionable styles and most excel
lent workmanship, and are sacrificed in this way
to relieve the proprietors from embarrassment ores
sioned by a distracting civil war. It should be promi
nently stated, also, that tb ey are mostly of
AMERICAN MANUFACTURE
and therefore greatly superior to the goods imported
from abroad and hawked about as the cheapest ever
sold. The simple duty on imported goods, and thilligh
preinium on gold (all foreign bills are payable in gold,)
amount to more than the entire cost or many Mille
articles offered by us to the public. To facilitate the
sale.
ONLY ONE DOLLAR
wiflthe charged for any article on our list, and this
corn the purchaser need not pay until he knows what
he is to get l This plan swords with the method re.
cently become so popular for disposing of large stocks
of Jewel ry and similar productions
THE PLAN IS SIMPLE!
' The name of each article offered far sale—as "Gold
Hunting Watch." "Gold Oval-Band Bracelet," !'Pearl
Prsastpin and Ear Drops," "Gold Enamelled Ring,"
"Silver Plated Cake Basket," &e., is written on a card
and enclosed in a sealed envelope ; these envelopes are
then placed in a drawer and well mixed ; then as an
order is received, with twenty-five cents for return
poetage and other clrirges, one of the cards or certill
mites is taken at random and sent by` rst mail to cus
tomer. who will see at once what he can get forces
dollar. If he is pleased with his fortune be can for
ward the money according to directions on the certifi
cafe and secure tne prize. If the'article awarded should
be unsuited to the purchaser—es for example, a set of
Pearl Ear-Drops and Breastpin to a young man who
could not wear them, and had no one to giro them to
—we will send any other article on the catalogue of
equal price which may be preferred. Or if, for any
reason, you choose to venture no further, then you
can let the matter drop where it is and spend no more.
