§;tmU Intelligent. Lancaster in the Olden Time—lts Incorporation as a Borough,on the 13th or August, 1742.—W0 have been delving among the musty records o{ the past. Among the records in the Mayor’s Office will bo found the proceedings of the Borough and City Councils from the date of incorporation of Lancaster as a Borough on the 13th day of August, 1742, down to the present time. Below we publish the first two pages of the Borough Record. It is a somewhat singular coincidence that the name of the first Town Clerk was George Sanderson. Whether he was any relation of the present Mayor wehavenotthe means of knowing, but the Mayor informs us that he had no personal acquaintance with the gentleman! The sub-divisions with small capital headings are the marginal references in the hafld-writing ol' the Town Clerk. Wo are very sure our readers will be inter ested in reading something of the doiDgs of the law-makers of Lancaster in the olden time. The record is written in a plain and legible hand, and wo have been careful to give the style, composition and spelling of the originul: At a Meeting of the Burgesses und As sistants of the Borough of Lancaster, in the County of Lancaster and province of Penn- Hvlvania, the 13th Day of August, in the year of ouc Lord 1742, by Virtue of a (’barter of Incorporation granted by the lionobl.

A temporary or ganization was the result. Mr. Levi S. Hoist was appointed Chairman for tiie oc casion, and J. llartmau llershuy, Jr., and l)r. W. L. Diffendorl'er, Secretaries. Thu conversation on the occasion was of an interesting nature to those Engaged in horticultural pursuits, and evinced how bunelieia! such meetings aro to individuals as well ns to the interests of the county.. A member alluded to thu well-known fact that much ol the fruit consumed within the limits of the county is brought from a dis tance, and this notwithstanding we have one of the best ol soils, with many other favorable conditions for its culture. This is true especially in regard to peaches. Let it not be said much longer. At the adjournment another meeting was uppoinled on the first Monday in Septem ber, when it is hoped the attendance will be larger and a permanent organization elVeet ed. All who take an interest in the subject are cordially invited to attend.

Reception of the Likdbbkranz of Baltimore.— The Liederkranz of Balti more arrived in the 6.15 p. m. train on Sat urday. They were met at the depot by the Lancaster Mcennerchor, and, to the excel lent music of the City Cornet Band, both Societies marched to the Marmbrchor’s headquarters, at Knapp’s Brewery, on East King street. Two splendid silk flags were carried by the Msennerchor and three by the Liederkranz. Arriving at Knapp’s, the Liederkranz were welcomed in an elo quent speech |by Mr. C. L. Steinmuller, Leader of the Msennerchor, which was handsomely responded to by Mr. Stein bach, of the Liederkranz. A song of wel come was then sung by the Msennerchor, which was responded to in a similar man ner by the Liederkrunz. Both Societies then sat down to a sumptuous collation, prepared by Mr. Lawrence Knapp and lady at the instance of the Msennerchor. A mum moth flag is suspended across the street from the headquarters, and tho front of the building is gaily und profusely deco rated with small flags. At 8 o’clock a torch-light parade took place. The procession was headed by the City Cornet Band, and each member*of the Societies carried an illuminated Chinese lantern. This, together with the fine dis play of fire-works on the route, attracted thousands of people into the streets. Much credit is due for the admirable arrange ments of the parade and* the pyrotechnic display. Yesterday morning the Liederkranz sang in tho Choir of Zion’s German Lutheran Church, on East Vino street, und last eve ning in .the Trinity Luthern Choir. The church was crowded in every part, and hII were warm in their praises of the rich and ran- musical treat. Tho pieces sung were the “Bth Psalm” and the “ Prayer of the Earth.” Tim perfect time, concord and unity of fifty voices were grand in the ex treme. The members of tho Liederkranz are certainly musters of the yocal art. This evening tho grand*concert takes place at Fulton Hull, in which both Socie ties will take part. The Hall will doubtless be crowded, and wo advise our readers to be on hand at an early hour, if they wish to secure good seats. To-morrow the Pic Nio in honor of the Liederkranz will bo held at Rocky Springs, and we look for an interesting and joyful io members of the Liederkranz are a fine-looking, intelligent body of men, und by their gentlemanly bearing have won the admiration and respect of all our citizens. So far, we have every reason to believe, they are delighted with their visit, and wo trust they may leave Lancaster with the warmest feelings of pleasure and the kind est remembrance of our citizens. The Grand Ofera and Concert Last Nioiit. —The opera and concert of the Bul- ire Liederkranz und Lancaster Mien nerehor last night, at Fulton Hall was the great event of tho season. Long before the hour of commencing, tho Hall, notwith standing the inclemency of the weather, was crowded in every part by the beauty, fashion and intelligence of the city. Before the curtain rose overtures were performed respectively by the City Cornet Band, and a superb Orchestra, composed of Baltimore ans and Lancasterians, under tho director ship of Mr. Charles Lenschow, Leader of the Liederk.ranz. Better orchestra music was never before heard in this city. The performance opened with tho comic opera in German, “Incognito,or the Prince nguinst his Will,” and without exception it was tho most admirably rendered and laugh able of anything of the kind we have ever seen, singing was particularly grand, and the.voiees, especially the tenors, bari tone and basso could not have been excel led. The gentlemen oftho Liederkranz are all amateurs, but their acting and singing night were worthy of those who make the stage their profession. At times tho au dience wore convulsed with laughter, and again tho storms of applause were pro longed and deafening. Uufortumitely our acquaintance with the German language is too limited to lylmit of a full description ol this master-piece of music; but thepointol the opera was tho uttenipl to make a poor, simplo peasant, “ Hans Winkelmuss, Zim mcrgesollo ” Mr. Schoman, tenor, a Prince in spite of himself. Thu principal instiga tor in this was “ Ordonhubor, Burgemoistor von Sclncppenstjedt,” Dr. Wiudhart, basso, whoso acting, the very essence of fun ami humor, kept the audience in continual roars of laughter. “Dei* Fuerst,” Mr. Steinbaeh, Olio of the sweetest and yet most powerful baritone singers wo havo ever listened to, was, however, the great obstacle in the way, and ho was ably assisted by “ Hofrath von SchwttlbeuHchweif,” Mr. Ohrenschall, tenor. All the members of tho Liederkranz up- poured in costume, and were perfect in their different parts. The opera was conducted by the leader, Mr. Lenschow, a master of Tiie miscellaneous part of tho programme was tho concert, in which both the Lioder krunz und Mionnorchoi> took part, under the direction of their leaders, Messrs. Len sohow und Steinmuller. It is superfluous to say that, like tho opera, the concert proved a complete success, and tho showers of bouquets attested the appreciation of the fuir sex especially. Several of tho pieces were encored so long and heartily that they had to bo repeated. A richer musical treat was never beforo presented tp our citizens, and the Mrenuer ehor are deserving the thanks of our music loving and concert-going community for giving such an entertainment. Our Balli" more friends have made for themselves a reputation among Lancasterians of which they may well lie proud. Wo hope it may boVmr pleasure soon again to listen to their superb vocal and instrumental music. I EIGHT OF TUE WATER IN THE RESE voiiis.—Mr. James L.

Reverend and Dear Sir : —The Second Plenary Council of the Catholic Church iu the United States, convoked by the author ity of the Holy See, will be opened in the Cathedral of Bal ti more, on the First Sunday in October, under the Presidency of the Most Reverend Martin J. Spalding, D. D., Archbishop of Baltimore, as Apostolic Del egate. You will please announce this most impor tant event to the Faithful committed toyour care immediately after receipt of this circu lar. Questions of great weight and interest,. touching the permanence and progress of our Holy Faith in this country, will be pre sented to the Right Reverend Prelates there to bo assembled, for their deliberation und decision. It cannot be doubted, that tho action of this Council will largely influence the destinies of our Holy Religion in thoso United States. And us “Every best gift and every perfect gift is from nbovo, coming down from the Father of lights,”— St. James , le. 17v.—there could be no occasion more imperatively demandingthoexercise, both on our part and that of our people, of constant and fervent prayer. Let us, therefore, during the period prece ding the opening of the Council, as well as throughout Us sessions, unite in earnest supplications to the Father of lights, that lie may shed His divine influences on the assembled Prelates, and imbue them with that spirit of wisdom, counsel and fortitude, so essential to the happy issue of their deliberations. You will announce the Fri day immediately preceding the opening of tho Council, (Friday, the sth of October,) as a day of lasting, for this intention. On the Festival of tin- Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and on all Sundays following, until the end of the Council, you will recite with the people, after tho Parochial Mass, tho Litany;of the Saints ; and exhort them to approach the Sacraments during this time, and iu their public and private devo tions, most earnestly to recommend this matter to God. “And may the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, keep our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus: Amen.” Given at Philadelphia, Sunday, the 12th of August, A, D. 18GB. f JAMES FREDERIC, Bishop of Philadelphia. By order of the Rt. Rev. Bishop: Aug. J. M'Conomy, Secretary Hot Weather.—A gentleman at Ca nandaigua, New York, seeing Mr. G. T. Zahiu’s notice of the recent Heated Term in the Intelligencer, has sent him an article from the Rochester Daily Union , headed “Weather of tho Last Half of July, ’66 — The “ Heated Period”—Comparisons, which will be found to be of groat interest. The article is as follows: Tho lirst Half of this July was tho hottest that has occurred in thirty years—7s.9 de grees— being 5 degrees above tho general average. The last Half was less, being 72.8 dogs, near 2 degs. above the mean. The month gave us 74.3 degs., or 3.6 degs. above the general temperature, 70.7 degs., while the highest was 74.8 degs.—July, 1855. Tho coldest mean was 66.3 degs. in each half, and the hottest day in the lust Half 86 degs, The ruin of the month is only 1.36 inch, and most of this is in the last Half. Show ers have been in sight, which gave us thoir cooling influence and made the weather much less oppressive. For securing hay aud grains the weather has been excelent, and the wheat hurvest has been done chiefly in the lust ten days, or the fourth week. Intelligence of abundant harvests comes from nearly all sections. July is distinguished for its high temper ature, and especially for the “Heated Per iod” which has just passed over us, about the middle of tho month. This extended widely over the country, but was more se vere at the south. Many fell under sun stroke ; the temperature was greater than in this century before, and for years ante cedent. Hero it was higher continuous heat than had occurred in the thirty preceding years. This will be seen in the tabular view of tiie mean, and of tho highest und lowest lemperuturo of each day. Highest.

In the record lor thirty years I lind no record of live or six daysas hot as the present, nor any four days indeed. The following is the mean heat in 1858 from June 23i.... 1836 July 23d... 1855 July 15th. 1854 July 16tt). 1853 Aug. 10th. 1852 July 6th. 1849 July oth. 1817 July 17th. 1815 July 11th. (Jam 12m 6pm These are all the heated periods of live days or more in succession in the record. The heated period of June, 1864, was longer, but no part as warm as this; the mean heat of the three successive hottest days was only 81.7°, the three days each exceeding 90° at 2 P. M. In this July heat, the hottest at 2 P. M., was 95° ; but in July, 1854, the heat was 102°, and a thunder shower after 2 P. M. greatly cooled the atmosphere. The next hottest was «S° in August, 1853, and in June, 1848 ; 97° in July 4 1852 ; 96° in August, 184(3, and other times. The highest temperature in June has ranged fiom 90 to 98 degrees in 16 years, leaving 14 years when the highest was below 90°; in July from 00 to 102 degrees in 28 years, leaving only two years below that range, and in August from 90 to 98 de grees in 13 years. No more than three successive days of the temperaturo exceeding 90° has occurred in tho last ten years, if ever in this city. The hottest month in 40 years was July, 1847, being 74.8°, and the boat of this July is 74.3°. The hottest hnlf month was the last half of June, 1858, being 77.7°; but the temperature exceeded 90° only, on three successive days. The last half ol July, 1855, was 76.9°, unci several others but little less. Aug. 1, 1866. c. D. Political. —The lollowing cheering ac count of political matters in Safe Harbor comes from an old friend : The Johnson and Olymer Club of Safe Harbor is increasing rapidly. It is re ceiving recruits at each meeting. It num bers already some fifty or sixty, about one half of whom are honorably discharged sol diers. The boys in blue are in earnest. They intend to vote the way they shot, “ for the Union.” They repudiate such heroes as Geary. Negro suffrage does not take with the soldier. He dia not make those sacrifices to elevate the negro, to place him on equality with the white man, socially and politically. The Democrats in this sec tion, of the county are terribly in earnest, and many who yoted with the opposition will do so no longer. The last Club meeting was addressed by Charles J. Rhodes.

Large and 'Enthusiastic Assemblage. Cannot Quench the Democratic Watch Fires. Speech of Hiester Clymer. Resolutions, Ac. [Reported Expressly for the Intelligencer.) In spite of the rain which descended in torrents during the morning, and the dense clouds which constantly threatened to drench the earth, the Annual Meeting of the Democracy of Chester county, which was held yesterday, was a complete suc cess. Had tho day been favorable the crowd would have been immense. As it was the attendance issaid by the best judges to have been larger than at any such meet ing held here for years by either party. All parts of the county were fully represented and the most remote districts not less so than those near at hand. Tho spirit ex hibited was indicative of the manner in which the Democracy of Pennsylvania have entered upon the present important campaign. There was much enthusiasm and an amount of earnest resolves such as is seldom witnessed. The Democracy of Chester are resolved to do their whole duty in the contest before them, and will give a better uecount of themselves than they have done for years. The universal conviction is that we cunnot be beaten if the full vote is out, and the settled purpose to poll it to a man is everywhere expressed. The De mocracy of Chester have always been noted for their firm aud unwavering devotion to principle, and they will do their whole duty iu October. The meeting was called to order at 11 o'clock, when the following officers were chosen to preside over it: President.— John H. Buinton. Vice President.—George W. Boyd, Jacob Handwork, Samuel WiUaner, Esq., Robert Rooke, Frederick Bragamau, Wm. A. Downing, Dr. J. R. Haskius, Joel C. Bailey, James Harley, Jr., Thomas R. Roney, George Hoffman, James W. Lyle, John Miller, John Savage. , Secretaries. —Reuben Keen, jr,, Benjamin Holman, Joseph P. Walter, Esq., John Hodgson. John H. Brinton, Esq., on taking the Chair made a brief and eloquent speech, alluding to the manner in which our gal lant standard bearer had been nominated, tho enthusiasm which atteuded tho event, and the earnest determination of the Demo • cratic party to rescue the State and tho Na tion from tho misrule of the Radical Dis unionists, who were willing to see it de stroyed if so be they might retain power. Mr. Brinton augured a good report from i Chester in October from the presence of so many of the Democracy despite the storm. He declared that the Democratic party stood now* where it had stood in all the past, for a whole Union and uu unimpaired Constitution; that its gallant standard bearer who was present bore no mutilated Hag, but the old banner of the Democracy with not a stripe sullied aud every one of the thirty-six stars upon it. He declared that the Democracy had the pow*er within their own organization to overthrow* the domination of the radicals. Either the vote of 1863 or 1804 would do it. It would be polled. Ho pledged Chester to do her part of it and more. The great States of Pennsylvania and New York would surely be redeemed and the good work would not stop there. We would have Hiester Cly mer in the Gubernatorial chair, would gain a number of Congressmen and, ho hoped, elect enough members of the Legislature to prevent the Keystone State from being disgraced, by tho sale of a seat in the U. S. Senate to some such man as Simon Camer on. He alluded to the Philadelphia Con vention uiul argued much good irom its assembling. Mr. Brinton was frequently interrupted by loud andheartyapplau.se. At the con clusion of his speech tho Committee on Resolutions through their Chairman, Dr. John A. Morrison, reported tho following series of RESOLUTIONS. In view of the prolonged and persistent effort of the dominant party in the Congress which has just adjourned, to prevent a restoration of the Union upon any other terms limn the political equalization of the negro with the while men,- in delianco of the right of each Slate to regulate Us local affairs iu itsown way, und todetermino who shall aud who shall not be entitled to the right of suffrage within the limits of its own territory; and in view of tho other revolutionary tendencies of tlmt party, its recklessness"and extravagance, its disre gard of all constitutional reiruints, its lavish expenditure oftho public money, the ap propriation to Congress of extra pay fee services already rendered, added to the in crease of tuxution in every possible shape in which it can be made to absorb the honest industry of the people, it becomes tho duty of all good citizens, who desire an early re turn of the peace und prosperity which blessed the whole country in former years, to speak out their sentiments boldly and to prepare by all legitimate action to snveour free institutions from the ruin with which they are now threatened by Congressional despotism; therefore, That wo recognize the Consti tution of the United States, and the laws made in pursuance thereof, to be the su preme law as welL to the rulers us to the People. Such was tho doetrino of our ’utliers in the earlier aud purer days of tho Republic ; and,if true to their wise precepts and putriotic example, we will unfaltering ly adhere to it. i?e.so{t>cd, That the Union of the Stales under and in accordance with tho Constitu tion, with all the States as equals iu right ami power, has ever been and is now the doctrine of true patriotism, and we there fore cordially endorse the Union Restora tion policy of President Johnson, us laid down in his vetoes of the Freedmen’s Bu reau and Civil Rights Bills, and tender to him our thanks for his noble and patriotic stand in defence of Constitutional liberty and the rights of the Stutes and the people. Resolved , That the conduct of the dis union majority in Congress in trampling upon the Constitutional rights of States, admitted and claimed by themselves time and again during the last five years to bo States in the Union, is strong and control ling evidence that the leaders of that ma jority and those who sustain them, favored tho recent war not from patriotic motives, or a desire to preserve the Union under the Constitution, but because of the long cher ished hostility to the Southern section of our country and its white citizens, aud a desire to damage their prosperity, and to make the emancipation of their slaves the opening door for forcing the odious doc trine of negro equality not only upon the Southern States, but upon Pennsylvania ami the entire North and West. Resolved , That :.be action of the present Republican Congress at the close of the late session, increasing their pay, was like sim ilar action in our Republican Legislature, a base and mercenary outrage upon the people, deserving the condemnation of all lonest and honorable men: and every member who voted for the measure, or by a cowardly dodge permitted its passage, is unworthy of and should fail to receive a re election. Resolved, That in Hiester Clymer, of Old Berks, the people of Pennsylvania have a candidate for Governor, who has justly earned tor himself in his private and public life the title of an honest man and a faithful public servant. Familiar by legislative and business experience with all the great interests of the Commonwealth, and closely identified with the tax-payers, his elevation to the Executive chair should be the desire and command the votes of all citizens who would have our good old State once more under the protection and care of a prudent, firm and economical Governor of the Sny der and Shunk stamp. Earnestly devoted to the Union Restoration Policy of Presi dent Johnson, unalterably opposed to the efforts of Yankee politicians to force the negro to a social and political equality with the white man, and reliably favorable to a rigid economy in all departments of the Government, Hiester Clymer is pre eminently the man for the people of this State in the present crisis. Resolved, That the Democratic organiza tion now, as in the days of Jefferson and Jackson, presents the best and surest means for the restoration of the Union upon the basis of the Constitution, for the protection of the rights of the States, for securing the liberties of the people, and the maintenance of our Governments, State and National, as they were framed by our fathers, and that as such it appeals confidently to an intelli gent people. Hon. Hiester Clymer was then introduced to the audience. He was received by a series of prolonged cheers. When the en thusiasm of the audience had somewhat subsided Mr. Clymer spoke in substance as follows: SPEECH OF HON. HIESTER CLYMER. My Friends and Fellow-Citizens: I am glad to meet you here in West Chester, the seat of intelligence and refinement. I feel at home among you, for I see here the same style oi faces to which I am accustomed in Berks, your neighboring county. Here, perhaps, devotion to the great principles for whioh the Democracy of Chester have always done battle so gallantly is more eonunendable even than it is in my home* Here you are always fn the minority, hot none thepess true or earnest than if you had control of the offices.' You fought for the sake of the great principles on which this government was founded, aud according to which alone can it be safely and successful ly administered. Here the men who vote the Democratic ticket do so withonthope of reward is aught else than the proud and holy concioosness of having fully discharged a great public duty. Such men as those whom I see around me and before me no pric\ Dear jrice could purchase. They would rather bear about them the proud consciousness of devotion to principle than hold any, oven the highest office in the gift of the people. [Loud applause.! I do not Intend to turn political resurec tionist. X will “let the dead past bury its dead,” and deal with the great vital issues of the present hour. Two opposing radical elements, each wrong, eacn moved by selfish influences, each alike forgetful of the good of a com mon country, after years of antagonistic strife, to allay which was the eager work of every truly patriotic heart, managed at length to bring about a crisis and to plunge this nation into the most gigantic and de structive civil war. I charge the Radicals of the North and the Secessionists of the South with being alike guilty in precipita ting its horrora upon us. During all the long weary years of bloodshed through which we have passed, the Democrats party has known only its ancient creed. In the distant past, throughout the war and to this day, its doctrine has ever been and still is, that every man everywhere must submit to the requirements of ihe Constitution and render implicit obedience to the laws. Be lieving this, the Democratic party of the North sustained the war for the Union both by men and means, only claiming the right of demanding that it should not be pervtrt ed from that avowed and most holy pur- pose. The man who says that the Democ racy of Pennsylvania did not honestly and heartily sustain th 6 war for the Union, slanders thousands of brave men now dead, and the entire mass of that great party uow t living, of which we, who are here to-day, are a component part. No one has been more misrepresented in this respect than I have. Yet early in the struggle I laid down my platform in plain terms and on that I have always firmly stood. In almost the very first speech I over made in a deliberative body, in',the Senate of Pennsylvania, speak ing l'or my constituency and to some extent for the Deinocracv of Pennsylvania, I made use of the following language, which may be found on page 74 of the Legislative Record of 18lU : “ lam here to day to deny for myself, and I believe for the great body of the Demo- cratic party of this i 'State, that they recognize anything like’thc right of secession of any State. I deny, I say, the right of any State to secede, and Igo farther, I tell you that the Democracy of this State, with one heart and feeling, applaud the gallant Anderson for his defence of the property of the United Stales. If he should go farthei' still and allow no Jlag but the. Stars and Stripes to float within ihe range of his guns, I for one would say amen to his deeds. There I stand. I say that South Carolina has no cause for secession or rebellion, and that it should be put down by the strong arm of the Uovcrn Such was the platform which I laid down for myself us eurly as the 11th day of Jan., in the year lSi>l, and beiore God, as I know my own heart, I have never swerved from it to the distance of one hair’s breadth. It was my position duriug the war, and is so novr. He who asserts otherwise is eilhei ignorant or a wilful falsifier. [Loud ami long-continued applause.] The war ended, as you all know, with the surrender of Lee, unu the giving up of his sword by Johnston. Armed resistance ceased at once, and peace, entire and per- fect peace, prevailed throughout the length and breadth of the whole land. The people of the South submitted to the result with a unanimity and a complete acquiescence not to be expected. The people of the North believed that the war had accomplished its legitimate purpose, and loud were their re joicings. All acquiesced in the results which immediately followed, except the extreme radicals, and even they seemed at first to make no opposition. And now let us ask what was the object of the war? For what purpose was it prose cuted? Did not every Republican orator and newspaper declare it was a war for the Union—purely und simply such? Were not we, who had been ridiculed as “ Union savers” in the campaign which resulted in the election of Mr. Lincoln, denounced as enemies ot the Union whenever we dared to call in question any single act of his Ad ministration? The soldiers, the many thou- sands of Democratic soldiers, who went from Pennsylvania, all believed the war to be a war for the Union. Let me ask them who are here now if tbut is not so. [Loud cries ot yes, yes.] I know you did. That is what you fought for then, und that is what you will now struggle to obtain by tho ballot as you nobly did on manj T an ensanguined field by the bullet. [Loud cheers.] You did not peril your lives to enslave tho white men of the South, or to enfran chise a horde of nogroes in order that tho rule of the Radical element of the Repub- lican party might be perpetuated. [Cries of no! nolj Shortly after the war ended, by one of those mysterious events which serve to mark epochs in history, a providential President was called to preside over the destinies of this nation. . Pie who was thus chosen had learned creed in the school of Jetferson unit Mudison and from the lips of Andrew Jackson. With the Democratic faith deeply implanted in his heart, he be lieved that the whole duty of the citizen was comprised in obedience to the laws and reverence for the Constitution. By the Constitution bo has always abided. Can any man, Republican or Democrat, point to n single act of his not in strict accordance with the Constitution? No, in all hisnetshe has borne himself us a ruler of this nation should. (Cheers for President Johnson.) Finding tho States of the South in an anomalous condition, with their very gov ernments in u stuto of chaos, ho proceeded at once to uppoint provisional Governors. They were only provisional, and in his in structions to them he laid down clearly the line of duty. They were instructed to en courage the culling of Conventions by the people, tho source of all power, In order that by them the defects of existing insti tutions might be remedied. This was done and speedily all began to assume tho np p&ranco of good order. The Secretary of tire Treasury appointed his officials to take charge of the revenues, the Postmaster General re-established mail routes, the At torney General put the Courts of tho United Stutos in operation, and again tho life-blood of good government begun to course freely through the paralized members of the wounded political body. In the wise measures which this wise and patriotic President adopted the whole country at first acquiesced. The Democracy acquiesced most freely, and the Republican parly seemed to do so. In all their conven tions of last year they endorsed President Johnson in unqualified terms. That it was which enabled them to carry their elections. By those elections the people of all parlies endorsed the restoration policy; and they intend to do so again at those to come this fall. During all this time, however, there were some harpies and sharks, unclean beasts filled with ravenous selfishness, and willing to betray the best interests of the nation for selfish ends, who were secretly opposed to the wise policy which had been inaugu rated. At first they dared not speak out plainly, and it was not until the meeting of Congress that unj' great number of them dared to show their heads above the sur face. Schuyler Colfax, Speaker of the House, just prior to the assembling of Con gress, disclosed the plot which the Radicals had been hatching in secret. You all know what followed. How they did not wait un til Congress was fairly organized until they committed all power to the Committee of Fifteen, which will live in history as more infamous than the celebrated and justly execrated French Directory. An imperium in impci'io was thus created, whose decrees were absolute law. The President had laid down his policy, and the whole country had acquiesced in it. The Radicals in Con gress proceeded to do nil in their power to overturn the policy of the President and to thwart the will and wish of the great mass of the people of all sections, as expressed in the elections. Nine long months did they sit in wrangling conclave to hatch out the abortion which they are pleased to terra a plan for the reconstruction of the Union. You have all seen it as it appears in the shape of proposed amendments to the Con stitution of the United States. It was meant to delay the restoration of the Union until the Radicals should be able to make sure their continuance in power. What is con tained in these proposed amendments? Let us look at them. The first is an attempt to make constitu tional their infamous Civil Rights Bill, which had been properly vetoed by the President, because of its glaring violations of the fundamental law of the land. Their attempt thus to re-enact it in the shape of a Constitutional amendment, show's that they knew that the very law which they passed over President Johnson's veto by a two thirds vote, was unconstitutional. I assert fearlessly tnat by that act they were guilty of what, to use a moderate term, I will call political periury; for having taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, they could not without peijury pass a law contravening it. That they know the Civil Rights Bill was unconstitutional, is proven by their attempt to remedy the de fects of the act by re-enacting it in the shape of the first clause of the proposed series of amendments. The second clause is meant to force negro suffrage upon all the States by means of in timidation and bribery. The Southern States are to be kept out until it is adopted, and by it Pennsylvania is to be deprived of a member of Congress unless she confers the right of suffrage on the negroes within her borders. Another clause which refers to the rebel debt is a piece of unmitigated humbug. By their terms, the bonds issued by the de funct (so-called) Confederacy, the evidences of indebtedness, and the notes issued, were only payable “six months after a treaty of peace with the United States I” No peace ever has been made; so by their own face are they shown to be dead. The States in adopting new Constitutions repudiated the whole'of the rebel debt. That killed them deader. What need then for that clause? Mr. Clymer then read a somewhat lengthy extract mom the speech of Wendei Phillips, in which be exposed the trickery involved in these amendments; in which, it will be remembered, this High Priest ot Radical ism declared that they wore only meant to bridge over the fall election, and enable them to secure, if possible, a larger majority than they now have in Congress, when a Constitutional amendment granting univer sal suffrage to the negroes and distributing the lauds of the South among them would be adopted. Mr. Clymer showed what would be the consequences of such a move, and painted in glowing colors the despicable condition of the Middle States when they should be thus ground between the upper millstone of Yankee fanaticism and selfish cupidity, and the nether one of whole States con trolled by negro votes. In conclusion Mr. Clymer referred to his opponent Gen. Geary, prefacing his remarks by declaring thut he would neither disgrace himself nor discredit the great party which nominated him by saying one harsh word against his private character. His public and political acts were public property. With them aloue he should deal. He was running ns a soldier. Of him in that capacity he allowed those who served with him to judge. If he had won laurels not one leaf would he pluck from bis brow. Of his political career Mr. Clymer said their remained little record. Mr. Clymer proceeded to read his letter to Sumuel Mc- Guire, in which General Geury announced himself a “life-long Democrat iu the broad est sense of the term, without afllx or pre fix.” This produced roars of laughter. Mr. Clymer then read nearly the whole of General Geary's speech, receutly made at York. His comments on the/TJeneral’s allusion to Banks’ report on the'neutrality laws led naturally to a review of the course of the party which was once the Know- Nothing organization. In fitting termsheex posed their lormerjinfatny and tbeir present shameless and arrogant presumption. The unmanly and ungeutlemnny attack of General Geary on the men who composed the Soldiers’ Convention which assembled at Harrisburg, in which ho denounced them as “sneaks, skulkers, cowards and politi cal bummers,” gavo Mr. Clymer a chance to deal in that keen invective of which he is so complete a master. His silly little speech over n pound cake which wns presented to him, afforded a good chance to give him another shot, which made him appear as utterly ridiculous ns he hud made himself. It is only proper to say that Mr. Clymer read from Forney’s 2*ress, and that his re marks were all legitimate and without the least semblance of malice. llis exposition of the position Gearv oc cupied on tho Republican plntiorm, uud by his entire endorsement of all tho acts of Thaddeus Stevens, was masterly and con vincing. Throughout his speech, which was an hour and three-quarters in length, uud of which our report is but meager, Mr. Cly mer was frequently und mostentlmsiastical ly applauded. At its conclusion a double round of hearty cheers were given for our gallant standard bearer, uud six more for President Johnson and the Philadelphia Convention. The meeting then adjourned.
