The Policy of tlie Union Party to Restore the Xatioual Union. li Jtesolved by (he Senate and Home of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, two thirds of l)oth Houses concurring, That the following article be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which, when ratified by three-fourths of the said Legislatures, shall be valid as a part of the Constitu tion. namely: "ARTICLE— Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are cit izens of the United States, and of the State wherein they reside. No Stateshafi make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States. Nor shall any State deprive any person of life, lib erty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of tlie laws. "Section 2. Representatives shall beap portioned among the several States accord ing to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed; but when ever the right to vote at any election for electors of President and Vice President, or for United States Representatives in Congress, executive and judicial officers, or the membersof the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, ur in any. way abridged, except for partici- Eation in rebellion or other crime, the asis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the num ber of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in that State. "Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, elector of President and Vice President or hold any office, civil or military under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an*oath as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State Leg lature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the ene mies thereof; but Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of each House remove such disability. "Section 4. The' validity of the public debt of the United States authorized bv law, including debts incurred for the pay ment of pensions and bounties for service in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned, but neither the United States nor any States hall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the T nited States, or anv claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave, but all such debts, obligations, and claims shall be held illegal and void." Wm. AVillis and John S. Miller are pledged to vote against the ratification of the above just and equitable settle ment of our national difficulties.

General Geary, Gov. Curtin, Professor Miller, Col. James .Mullins, of Tennessee, and Hon. D. Krause, will ad dress the meeting. A Fevr Plain questions. Can any democrat assign a single reas on why he should vote for Willis and Miller in preference to Brown and Whar ton? Nol>ody knows what the first named are, while of the latter there is no doubt. Can any republican give a single reason why he should vote for Willis or Miller in preference to Brown or Wharton? Hard Run for Something to Say. Whoever will pick up the Lewistown Democrat, or any of the papers ip this district advocating Jolm-on's new party, cannot but mark the want of sensible po litical argument in their columns. Negro suffrage is the main feature, yet he must indeed be a silly fool who does not know that even if the republican party desired it no such question can be submitted to the voters of this State before 1869-three years hence. But the republicans do not desire it, and we venture to say that if, at this day, the naked question was submit ted to the people, not ten men in Lewis town would vote to extend that right to the blacks. To those who served in the army a better fettling prevailed among all parties a year ago, and had the question then come up, we believe a majority of republicans and democrats would have sustained it; but by 1869 this feeling will wear away altogether, and with the pre judice created by political papers against that race, we look tor tho time when every negro soldier will be cursed by ignorant men for having served in the war against rebellion at all. .So too with all the measures called for by the suppression of the rebellion. A Christian man, or any one having the common feeling of humanity, would sup pose that it is the duty of government to extend its fostering care to the weak and oppressed, but instead of this we find every leading measure, and especially the Freedmen's Bureau, which has relieved thousands of poor whites as well as blacks from starvation, and is in charge of the Christian General Howard, stigmatized from Andrew Johnson down as engines of oppression and corruption. Does it not sound strangely to hear a President thus denounce a law administered under his own supervision, whose Officers he can re move at pleasure, or is the whole thing mere claptrap? It strikes us if there is anything wrong, a certain Executive of ficer is in fault, and that he is not doing what he swore he would do. What Does It Mean ? Sundry papers and flppenny-bit speak ers of the dead democracy, as well as the bread and butter brigade, insist upon it that thej>eople are called upon this fall to vote on a constitutional amendment to allow negro suffrage in this State. As the constitution was amended in 1864, and therefore cannot be altered for live years thereafter, do these hypocrites mean to override the Constitution, and bring negro suffrage before the people in defi ance of the provisions of that instrument? They either mean to do this, or else, in vulgar parlance, they lie, and that too knowingly, as any man with three grains of brains in his head can see by reading the Constitution! The fact is, this ques tion of negro suffrage is put forward for the sole purpose of deceiving ignorant men as to the real issue at stake, which truly is, whet! er leading rebels shall be restored as lawmakers and officeholders with greater political power than they ever had before? The constitutional amendments proposed by Congress would at once make Pennsylvania a white man's government, and it would make the South the same; hut the trouble is it would only give them representation according to WHITE POPULATION, and thus prevent them from representing themselves as well as four millions of negroes. That's where the shoe pinches, and that's what calls for a yell from the dead democracy and its allies. Joined to their Idols. A political meeting was held last week at Frederick City, Maryland, in favor of the President's policy. The speakers and those assembled appeared to have an idea that the "Confederacy" still existed, or that it would again arise from its ashes, like the fabled plicenix. Cheers, loud and long, were given for Jef Davis, Beaure gard, Lee, Forrest, &c., &c. To add eclat to the occasion, a six-horse wagon front the country entered the town with a rebel fl a U fastened to the head of each horse. Comment on such a demonstration, says the Philadelphia Inquirer, seems al most useless. The Hag was cheered to the echo, and those comjjosing theassem blage gave unmistakable evidences of their fealty to 'Davis and the emblem of that rebellion which was crushed by the men ot the North and West. If the southern people are earnest in their desire to par ticipate in the blessings of the Union, they must exhibit it in some other way than that of applauding Jeft. Davis and his rebel flag. The North is in no humor to succumb to the conquered or lose the flints of its toil, its blood and its treasure expended for the preservation of its free institutions and the integrity of the na- i tion. We are sorry to note, diiv after day, this foolish and wicked spirit on the part of Southern communities. They find fault with Congrqgs, and yet they furnish in their actions the very arguments which are advanced against them in Congress. ! td they do better, until thev evince a readiness to abandon their love for treas on and prove it by electing loyal men to our national councils, they will be looked i upon, and with reason, as still opposed to the Government, and as meu willing whenever opportunity offers, to renew their efforts for its destruction. While they display the rebel fiag, cheer Jef Da vis, and prate about the superiority of the South over the North, they are entitled -to no more than they have already re ceived at the hands of Congress. vJJ^\ A S®otleman in Philadelphia,con versant with politics in this State suvs ioritv n'i th V'-' ud by immense nia jontj, and that instead of losing we shall gain members of Congress. j John S. Miller. It took u- sonic time to ascertain what this brother chip of Mr. Willis was, and we are able at last to state that Mr. Mil- j . ler's principal occupation has been selling whisky—served his country during the war by turning" horse contractor, and keeping copperhead headquarters gener ally for the sympathizers of southern treason. Par mobile fratrum. The Hun tingdon Journal says his house was made the rendezvous for those friends of South ern rights who proposed to tear down the j Globe office because it deserted them in the hour of adversity, which readily ac counts for that paper's rather lefthanded notice of his nomination. Gain in Vermont nearly 10.OOO! Gain in Maine nearly IO.OOO! The New York Herald, long the de fender and supporter of Johnson, consid ers the result in Vermont and Maine as decisive of the fall elections, and strongly ! recommends the Southern States to adopt ; the Constitutional Amendments and thus I gain admission into Congress at once. It j concedes those elections to be overwhelm ing reflections of public sentiment, and predicts republican triumphs throughout. i &Sir" A negro is a better man than An- : | drew Johnson.— Speech of John William- i j son, in Johnstown, August 29, 1566. The alKiye shows that Daniel J. Morrell, i ■ the disunion candidate for Congress, thinks more of a negro than he does of the President of the United States! This was shown by Mr. Morrell applauding Williamson, when he was making the above speech.— Lewistown Democrat. John \\ illiamson says a great many hard things, and he may have said the above; but if he did, it neither shows what Mr. Morrell is or what he thinks. 1 We are very sure, however, he applauded j no such sentiment. The New Coalition. It is surmised that the treat%- of peace ' consummated at Tyrone among Cowan, j Johnston and Burns is that the last is to I have full and complete control of all the appointments in this and neighboring counties, and also to have a sayso in all others where lie feels interested. If this j is the case, Mr. Burns' name ought to ap pear above Johnston'sin the papers whicli support "My policy." The Democrat chimes in with an article from the Juniata Republican about the number of papers supporting My pol- ! icy in this district. The three in Mifflin- I town would amount to about one—the j Huntingdon Globe is not a paying con- I cern. as we hear Lewis has himself said— | the Monitor certainly is not—and the j Shirleysburg Herald we would not take bestowed, if we had to publish it. US?" Neither the Juniata Republican I nor the Shirleysburg Herald, which pub lished the nonsensical flattery and false hoods of Mr. Willis, have thus far retract ed their foolish statements. Far the Gazette. Mr. Editor—We hear a great amount of talk now-a-days about soldiers and sol diers' friends, arid of course the copper johnsonists make as loud professions as any other class, notwithstanding* they have selected for their standard bearer one who has been notorious for his opposition j to the soldiers and their interests. To show however how far these professions are sincere, there was a Mr. Myers, who ; served his country for more than four i years, and who hears upon his body the j marks of seven minnie bails received i in the same engagement in which Col. j Huling fell. This mangled veteran j chanced to find his way to Reedsville on ! last Tuesday, and on Wednesday evening , lie took occasion to express his preference j for (xen. Geary for Governor, when a ! scene took place which should bringdown ! the disapprobation of all good citizens upon those that were engaged in it, and | stamp the perjietrators with eternal in fa- i my. Following the example of their illu -- i trous predecessors of the reconstructed of New Orleans, they gathered around him, and after making sundry demonstrations, one sneaked up behind and made the bold j attack upon the crippled man; not with his fist, but with a stone, as if to give the public a practical demonstration of his wonderful courage in whipping Republi- j cans, of which he was silly enough the j other week to boast of in a speech lie tried 1 to make, when he told them that tliey could whip Radicals with their lists; if they couldn't do that, they would do it with the point of the bayonet. Comment on such conduct is unnecessary. v. p. For the Gazette. Is tiic Democratic Party Sold? Mr. Editor —Not liking the position in which our managers have placed the rank and file of the democratic party, others besides myself would like to know why we are expected to ratify whatever bar gains a few men choose to make. Having waited in vain for some reason from our paper and our speakers at meetings why we should vote for an ism ticket, I ask the use of your columns to say a few words on this subject. After inquiry, I find that John 8. Miller was until lately a tavernkeeper at Huntingdon, so that, temperancely speaking, the ticket stands as follows: For Assembly, | Jno.S. Miller, late liquor seller to privates. \Vm. Willis, late liquor seller to officers. • M". Editor, don't that smell rather strong? Oh, but, says one, they are clev er fellows. Suppose they are, that is not all we want, and to show you what I mean I will publish 1113- "experience." I came to town and of course was button-holed by more than one. Matthews told me they were all right—Burns told me they ; were all right—two or three Johnson men told me they were all right—a tavern keeper told me they were all right—and : yet Mr. Willis himself told a republican ' neighbor of mine that he was as good a republican-as ever! The whole thing sounds strangely to our ears, and before j we agree to clinch this bargain and sale of democratic votes to make' somebody right, we'll want to know more than w'e do. Publish this, anil you'll hear from me again. A RANK AND FILE DEMOCRAT, who was once called a Copperhead. [Crack your whip, old fellow, as much as you please. Make your notes, and faith ! we'll print 'em—nothing like it in a hap- 1 jpy family.—EDß. GAZETTE.] ! The Democrat's attempt to connect rebel papers south and republican papers north as disunionists is rather weak. It • would be more pertinent to compare them j during the war. The Shirleysburg herald does not cal culate much on Huntingdon county, which it hopes may only balance Juniata, leaving Milllin to decide the election. — Huntingdon will do its duty, and mark it, so will Mifflin. fi*u.The Democrat wants to know whether Congress ever voted any money to keep poor white men. They did. The | official report of tha Freedmen's Bureau shows that more than two whites to one 1 colored man was supplied with rations bv it. jjtjf" The most sign iff cant fact we have lately seen is the advance in London from nothing to 41 of the rebel bonds on the re ceipt of the doinps of the Philadelphia August convention. No proceedings of any republican convention has ever sent rebel bonds upwards! Diamonds in Brazil. —We have been gratified by a visit from H. M.
