fi&U The Shirleysburg Herald makes a
defence of a letter written last spring to
Mr Jordan, Chairman of the Union Re- j
publican Committee, asking for pay to

paper.
86L How Johnson receptions are got up, !
may be inferred from the fact that every
hand in the Government Printing Office
at Washington was paid two dollar# for
turning out to welcome back the election
eering iiero who don't care for dignity !
This is fully equal to the rottenness of the
old Canal Democracy.
fcaiL. At a meeting held in the Court
House at Bedford, on Saturday evening,
B. F. Meyers, the Democratic candidate
for Senator, addressed the audience. Dur
ing his remarks he said the name of Booth I
would live. He, like Winkelr'ed, had
laid down his life for his country, that
Switzerland had her Winkelreid, Scot
land her Bruce and America her Booth,
and that rhe time would come when a
monument would be erected to Booth
higher than that erected to Lincoln.

ANDREW JOHNSON ON RECONSTRUCTION.
"In calling a convention to restore the
State, who shali restore and re-establish
it? Shall tbe man who gave his influence
and his means to destroy the Government?
1> he to participate in the great work of
reorganization? Shall he who brought
this misery u}>on the State be permitted
to control its destinies? If this be so,
then ali this precious blood of our brave
soldiers and oflieers so freely poured out
will have been wantonly spilled, all the
glorious victories won by our noble ar
mies will go for naught, and all the bat
tle-fields which have tieen sown, with!
dead heroes during the rebellion will have !
been made memorable in vain. Why all I
this carnage and devastation ? It was that !
treason might be put down and traitors
punished. Therefore I say that traitors
shall take a back seat in the work of res
toration.
ANIUiEW JOHNSON IN FAVOR OF DISFRAN
CHISING TRAITORS.
" I say that tiie traitor has ceased to be
a citizen, and in joining the rebellion has
become a public enemy. He forfeited his
right t<> vote with loyal men when he re
nounced his citizenship and sought to de
stroy our Government. We say to the
most honest and industrious foreigner
who comes from England and Germany
to dwell among us, and to add to the
wealth of the country, ' Before you can
be a citizen you must stay here tor five ;
years.' If we are so cautious about for
eigners, who voluntarily renounce their !
homes to live with us, what should we
say to the traitor who, although bom and
reared among us, luis raised u paricidal
hand against the Government which al
ways protected him? My judgment is
that he should be subjected to a severe
ordeal before he is restored to citizen
ship."
ANDREW JOHNSON IN* FAVOR OF EXECU
TING TRAITORS.
"6how me who has been engaged in
these conspiracies, who has fired upon
our flag, who has given instructions to
take our forts, custoni-housgs, arsenals,
and dock-yards, and I will show you a
traitor. Were I President of the United
States. 1 would do as Thomas Jefferson
did in 18(H) with Aaron Burr. I would
have them arrested, and, if convicted,
within the meaning and scope of the Con
stitution, by the Eternal God I would ex
ecute tfiem!"
ANDREW JOHNSON FAVORS CONFISCA
TION.
" Treason must Vie made odious and
traitors punished and impoverished.
Their great plantations must be seized
and divided into small farms, and sold to
honest industrious men."
ANDREW JOHNSON JUDGED BY HIMSELF.
" Whenever you find a man anywhere
prating about the Constitution "of the
United States, spot him ; he's a traitor.—
