Towanda, Thursday, November 22,1866,
UNITED STATES SENATOB.
ONE of the most important duties devolv
ing upon the Legislature of this Common
wealth, soon to assemble at Harrisbnrg,
will be the election of a Senator in the U.
S. Congress to represent this State for six
years from the Fourth of March next, in
place of Hon. EDGAR COWAN.
The selection of a man to fill this impor
taut and responsible station, always of the
highest moment, becomes doubly so, from
the recreancy and faithlessness of the pres
ent Senator, who has been false to his pro
fessions and a traitor to the principles of
the party, whose servants elevated him to
power. With such a glaring instance of
recreancy as a warning and guide, the peo
ple look with unusual interest to the pend
ing election, and demand of their Represen
tatives that the choice shall fall upon some
statesman of well-tried probity, whose char
acter and antecedents shall be a guarantee
that he will be faithful in the Senate to
those great principles which have so lately
received the popular approval.
Fortunately, amongst the many names
already mentioned for the high honor of
Senator from this noble Commonwealth,
there is no difficulty in making such a se
lection as will at once inspire public confi
dence, and give to that body a member who
will act with the radical majority, on all
the measures which are likely to arise
touching the reconstructiou of the South
ern States, and all other matters of public
policy. It is easy enough to select from
the score of names already before the pub
lic, some one, who in the past has no doubt
ful or obscure record, who has withstood
the blandishments of patronage, the denun
ciations of power, and proved himself a
true aud reliable friend of progress and hu
man rights. Such a man, uuiting familiar
ity with our national affairs, with a broad
and comprehensive regard for the interests
and wants of the Commonwealth, should by
all means be selected, regardless of the
clamor of partizans, aud the schemes of
politicians.
It is not onr purpose to go into a review
of the merits and demerits of the candi
dates. The friends of the several candi
dates are already engaged in advancing
the prospects of their favorites, in some ea
ses it seems to us, in an intemperate aud
unjustifiable manner. If the North could
uarne the Senator, we presume that there
would be entire unanimity in presenting
the name of HOD. GALUSHA A. GROW, as her
first choice. His reputation needs no bol
stering from over zealous friends. He has
been identified with the rise and progress
and final succes of the cause of Freedom,
in such a manner, as should give him the
confidence of every patriot. There can be
no question but that in the IT. S. Senate lie
would take a front rank as a statesman,
while his fidelity will not admit of a doubt.
The State of Pennsylvania will be honored
when Mr. GROW takes his seat as her repre
sentative in the L'nited States Senate—an
occurrence to which his friends look with
; the utmost confidence.
But there is 110 concealing the fact that
the Senatorial question in the next Legisla
ture, seems at present to be narrowed to a
choice between two distinguished gentle
men—Gov. CURTIN and Hon. SIMON CAMERON.
Aside from our preference for Mr. GROW,
we certainly have a choice between these
candidates—a choice based upon the oc
currences of the past live years—which in
vests the struggle, iu our judgment, with
the greatest interest to every truly loyal
man, and sincere Republican
The outbreak of the Great Rebellion
found Gov. CURTIN iu the Gubernational
chair of the Commonwealth. He justly de
serves the credit of having strengthened
the hands of the National Administration
in raising men to vigorously prosecute the
war, of having faithfully guarded the inter
ests of the soldiers, of having endeavored
to promote their comfort in the camp and
the hospital. His position as Governor
gave him great opportunities for gaining
commendation for his zeal, while the more
arduous and self-sacrificing labors of many
a private man went unheralded and unac
knowledged. For this, the people re-elect
ed him in 1563, testifying their apprecia
tion of his services, hut more particularly
to show the country that loyal men in what
ever stations were to be sustained and up
held iu their loyalty.
1 hat many men favored the rcnomina
tion and re-election of Gov. CURTIN, at that
time, who under other circumstances would
not have supported it, we have reason to
know, lor there was then a deep seated and
wide-spread feeling amongst the radical
men in the State that the State Adminis
tration was not in sympathy with those,
who looking upon the war as the natural
result of slavery, expected and desired
that the cause should be utterly exterminat
td in the struggle. There was,in fact,a gen
eral feeling, that the State Administration
was conservative, und did not sympathize
even with the prominent measures of Pres
ident LINCOLN, much less with those whose
views were in advance of that great and
lamented man. We have looked in vain,
through Gov. CURTIN'S Messages to find one
word of support or encouragement for the
radical views and me sures which have
now received the popular approval. We
defy his must ardent triend to find one line,
or quote one utterance, up to the time of I
his making his York speech, which indicat- 1
ed his support of radical measures. If we j
do him injustice by so saying, it is unin- j
tentional; for we put out of view as in
credible and unworthy of belief, the asper
sion that he had just previous to that
speech, made a compact with Senator COW -
AN, to support President JOHNSON'S Policy,
in consideration of disposing of the patron
age of the general government within the
of Pennsylvania. \Y e shall need
some more evidence before we believe that,
notwithstanding his <juasi endorsement of
President JOHNSON'S measures, in his Mes- j
sage of last Spring.
General CAMERON'S record during the war
has been such as to gain Inm the confi
dence and warmest gratitude of the whole
country. Occupying the War Department
when treason culminated in open rebellion,
he alone, of those at the head of our Na
tional affairs, seemed to comprehend the
magnitude of the coute >t. in which we were
engaged. His long experience in public
affairs, his intimate acquaint wice with
JEFF. DAVIS, and the leaders the Rebell
ion, his shrewd perception of their purpos
es, of their resources, ai d their determica
tiou to " rule or ruin " impressed him v. Mi
a conception of the danger which en vi; .m
--ed the Nation, and the terrible and deadly
struggle she should prepare to undergo.—
The fact that his views were so much
broader aud in advance of bis colleagues,
and his active preparations to make leady
for the contest, caused his retirement from
the Cabinet in 1802.
Every day since Gen. CAMERON sailed for
Russia, lias been a vindication of his sagac
ity, and a proof of his high integrity in the
management of the affairs of the War De
partment, during the dark and gloomy
hours, succeeding the attack upon Fort
Sumpter. We shall enter into no attempt
at his vindication. President LINCOLN, with
that justice and sense of fair-dealing which
characterized that good and great man, put
his enemies to the blush, in that memora
ble Message of the 27th of May, 1802, relat
ing to the resolution of censure passed by
the House of Representatives, by frankly
and boldly accepting the responsibility of
I all the matters for which Gen. C. had been
censured. Since that time lie has patient
ly waited for the inexorable logic of events,
to show how wisely and uprightly he act
ed. And he conld well afford to wait ; for
j never has a man come out from under re
; proach, so completely justified. The Na
tion now, looks to his efforts in the War
! Department as not only being wise and up
| right, but can see that had his advice and
| efforts been prop rly appreciated and sec
| onded, the Rebellion would have been
earlier crushed.
Familiar with Southern men, and cogni
j zant of t\joir desires and intentions, trom his
I shrewd estimate of the character of the
| Southern leaders, Gen. CAMERON early recog
| nized the purposes for which the Rebellion
was inaugurated, and saw that the struggle
would not be over, until the cause was ex
terminated. An early and consistent Free
soiler, he had marked the usurpations of
the Slave oligarchy, until their arrogance
had ended in the treason that struck a dead
ly blow at our free institutions. His saga
cious mind early recognized the fact that
their property in man was the weakness or
strength of the Rebellion, as it was treated
|by the Loyal nation. He was the; earliest
| advocate, amongst public men, of the policy
! and justice of arming the blacks. His re-
J port, as Secretary of War, in December,
j 1861, in favor of that measure, stands a
! prouder monument to his sense of justice,
I to his patriotism, his far-sighted sagacity
! and his boldness, than could have been er
| ected by other hands. The Nation owes
j him a debt of gratitude for that Report,
j which can never oe adequately discharged.
| For that bold act of justice and statesman
-1 ship, he was obliged to retire from Presi
; dent LINCOLN'S cabinet, borne down by the
j outcry, from the timid, time-serving Con
| servatives of the country, leaving behind
j him such men as SEWARD, WELLES and BLAIR,
| whose names have since become offensive
' to the people.
The state of Pennsylvania owes it as a
| simple act of justice to SIMON CAMERON, that
he should be honored by some signal proof
of the confidence and gratitude of her peo
ple. He has earned it, by arduous and
wisely-directed efforts to put down the Re
belliou. He deserves it, from his ample ex
perience in public affairs, from his familia
rity with the needs of the Nation, and from
his devotcdncss to the interests of the Com
monwealth.
CONVKNTION'OF SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENTS.—
At Hanisburg, on the 4th of December
next, at two o'clock P. M., will be conven
ed a meeting of the County Superintend
ents of the Public Schools of Pennsylvania,
to continue in session three days, under
the authority of Mr. J. F. Wickersham,
Superintendent of Public Schools. Ar
rangements have been made to accommo
date delegates with lodgings at the State
C ipitol Hotel, at $2 per clay, being two
thirds of the regular charge. A number
of reports will be presented on various
topics of education, discussions thereupon
will follow and during cousecutive'sessions,
a number of important subjects will he
considered.
tet v Andrew Brockman, one of the vic
tims ofjjthe Indiau massacre at New-U!m
Mountain, in 1863, has arrived at St. Louis.
He experienced the tortures of seeing his
wife and four children murdered, and was
then horribly mutilated : his tongue cut
out, hamstring severed, his fingers cut, his
hands maimed, his scalp torn reeking from
his head, which had previously been per
forated with three bullets ; but despite
these wounds the unfortunate man survived,
and was carried to Salt Lake City, where
he remained in hospital for three years.
I®- Chief-Justice Chase and Gen. Grant
are amoug the influential men who have
been recently in consultation with the
President, (says the Tribune) urging him,
it is understood, to come to some agree
ment with Congress upon the subject of
reconstruction. The mere fact of consult
ation is encouraging, and, we cheerfully
believe, indicates the falseness of these
rumors that Mr. Johnson intended to act
against the will of the people.
A fire in Chicago, Sunday morning,
destroyed property to the amount of $450,-
000, on which there was $236 000 insurance.
Several prominent busiuess houses were
sufferers, and Eastern insurance compan
ies have sustained considderable loss.
SSif The Northern Tier Gazette, of the Bth
iuM., contains an able and sensible article
on the subject of United States Senator,
from which we take the following para
graphs :
From this mere glimpse it isevident that
the United States Senate is not a shell
when on dextrouely to lay away worn out
politicians ; 'tis not a crypt for modern
mumniiiied magnates, nor is it a mere sine
cure with which to reward public men how
ever t' ue they may have shown themselves
in other honorable service. For the honor
of our State, and the good of the Union, we
trust the incoming Senator will be a man
of energy, extensive experience, and lofty
si . .-manship. The eloquence to move
SenaVs differs vastly from what may win
' '-oidits fro it popular assemblies.
S verai worthy gentleman have been
nan: I for the position. The veteran Ste
vens peuding "the re-construction" holds a
prominence in the House from which it
would he unwise to remove him.
Grow, who ably represented this District
in Congress, we are glad to see named, be
cause it will keep him before the public
mind for elevated station which with en
larged experience hereafter fill.
It is a cruel kinduess that urges these
weighty cares o! Senatorship upon Gov.
Curtln immediately after the exhausting
management of the complicated affairs of
the C 'inmonwealth for a double term,during
a period of great public trial and danger.
Weighed down by those arduous labors as
he bus been, it would be as unjust to the
full fame of Gov. Curtin himself as it would
be perilous to immense senatorial interests
requiiiug vigorous attention,to tax him with
them. Doubtless honors, greatly superior,
are in store and will attend our model Gov
ernor upon his recuperation from ill health
caused by the crushing cares of the Com
monwealth during the war.
Nor can there be any call for his service
senatorial at this time. For, beyond all
question, in Simon Cameron, now in the full
vigor of his age, meet numerous and rare
qualifications, admirably fitting him to fill
the position. It was in the hearts of many
to give him the Presidency when God placed
over the nation Abraham Lincoln, Ju Mr.
| Lincoln's Cabinet,the capacity Mr. Cameron
had already evinced in the Senate for the
| ready mastering of vast combinations in
| their endless detail, intuitively grasped the
I aggregated complexedness in the coil of
i affairs of that tumultuous time, and lead
| him early in the war to advocate the very
measures which afterwards caused victory
i to perch upon our banners, and insure suo-
I cess to the Uniou. It is due Mr. Cameron
j as the representative man and our favorite
! son of Pennsylvania, that place and scope
I be afforded him in the United States Sen
ate to complete his glorious record upon
the great principles of emancipation and
human rights, in carrying forward which,
and because he was in advance of his com
peers, he was displaced.
Who so tit to take prominent part in the
final adjustment of the vexed questions of
Stat*;, as he who so early,in his high place,
advocated and urged the plans and princi
ples which have conserved the Nation and
made that adjustment practicable and about
| to be accomplished.
Simon Cameron, with a fair record as a
1 Senator, familiar with the details of states
j manship—himself a part of the war, and in
! timate with all its workings—standing
square on the slavery question, prompt to
favor the arming of negroes ; the honored
j member of Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet; of un
i questioned loyalty to the Union and to
1 Pennsylvania, both in her general and in
! her local aud agricultural concernments ;
with large personal, landed and proprietary
; interests in the industrial pursuits of the
! State ; with long time experience in public
and corporate business ; and possessing as
he does the confidence of the people, he is
preeminently fit for Senator, and he will
stand in that body witli none his superior
in wisdom aud sagacity, prudence aid pub
lic spirit.
ANTIETAM NATIONAL CEMERKRV.— Thomas
A. Boult, Esq., secretary and treasurer of
the Antietam Cemetery Association, gives
the following information in relation there
to :
A burial corps has been sent to the Cem
etery by the Government, with a train of
wagons, Ac. The men of this corps disin
ter the bodies from the many trenches and
graves around the neighborhood of the bat
tle-field, place them in collins, and deliver
them t*> Dr. Biggs, superintendent of the
cemetery. Dr. Biggs has trenches excava
ted in the divisions of the cemetery set
apart trom each State, and as the bodies
are received, they are interred in their re
spective trenches. The cofiius are number
ed, and the number is set down in a book,
opposite the name of the soldier, it known.
The collins are placed exactly eight inches
apart in the trenches, aud ii can thus be as
certained by measurement,when the trendi
es are filled up, exactly where the body
bearing each name and number is interred.
There are trenches excavated for sixteen
States, aud as the remains are brought up
they are takeu to the trench to which they
belong. Thus bodies can be identified to a
certainty. Nothing now remains of most
of the bodies but the bones. In some cases
the ilesh has not decayed, but appears to
have dried. After all the bodies around
the battle field are appropriately interred,
the burial corps will proceed to gather and
transport to the cemetery those lying at
different points in the county, Keedysville,
Boousboro, Fuukstown, Hagerstown, and
other places,together with those who fell at
South Mountain.
The masonry of the cemetery wall is com
plcte, including the foundation for the iron
fence on the turnpike front. This fence
will be delivered and put up during the fall
and winter. The coping stones, of Keedys
ville marble, are about being placed on the
walls on the other three sides. Some of
them are sixteen feet long. There are 2,700
linear feet of these stones, and the cost is
about $3 per foot,placed in proper position.
EUROPE.— We have advices to Monday
evening by Atlantic telegraph. Disas
trous floods have occurred iu several coun
ties of England, causing the loss of many
lives. Large numbers of Fenians are said
to be arriving in Ireland, and the British
Government has an eye npon them. Baron
Ricasoli has issued a circular on the Ro
man Questions. He discountenances agi
tation, aud advises the Italians to wait for
events. The Princess Dagmar is seriously
ill, and festivities have, in consequence,
been suspended in Russia. , Count Bis
marck is soon to resume the active duties
of his office.
A New-Orleans dispatch of Satur
day gives a report that Maximillian,having
reached Cordova, was prevented from pro
ceeding further until he should abdicate in
favor of the person named by Bazaine. It
is stated that he offered to abdicate in fa
vor of Iturbide, but this was not accepted
and he returned to Mexico, declining to
abdicate in favor of any one else.

| outlandish. Edo not ask to make ymr goods ii it is
I. not convenient. The facilities in some other 1 oea'i'i .-,
| where a better choice of sto i k aud workmen can be hud,
| may be still better Aud you have always been in the
j business, aud better underst licit his one point and im
| portant branch of the Merchant's art, than those tli it

I glad to let this business go where it belongs ; that they
have done it heretofore to accomodate the people ; i do
believe if you would open u firs*-class Shoe '-tore the
people would not go to Dry Goods Stores to buy Shoes ,
any more than they would to Drag Stores I >. Oats.
Stop, stop.* what are you talkiugaUi.it ? lias not any
one the right to sell what he pleases? Rutty be, but
not injustice is it right in so large a place as this .where
practical men are engaged wholly in this business. It
has been given np in every other place and according
> to custom it will be here.
Two thousand five hnndred propositions made rom
customers, is, to bring more .of the same kind ol Boots
and Shoes you brought with you when you came in town
seven years ago. I have never seen a good Shoe betore
nor since, is the language o them nil at the same time.
Raise these feet gently
And think it so queer
That the Bouts 1 sold then
ShoaM wear Iheat a year.
I now yield to the above propositions, and have prom
ised to sell Twenty-live Thousand Dollars worth of his
Boots and Shoes if he would make thein as good as
those I brought here seveu years ago. aud the answer is
I will ! I will!
Well friends, your proposition made
And I've consented to the trade.
So I will jell you Shoes both strong and neat,
To please the taste and suit the feet.
1 have Ladies,' Misses', Boys' and .Mens',
From fancy down to coarse hrogaus,
Come one and ail, do as you agree,
And buy your Boots and Shoes of me.
Come! Come ! I say, where you can find
Boots exactly toy jur mind ;
A d if you was never here before,
You'll find it is the very Store.
Come Ladie-', Gents, I have goods for all.
Buy your goods of me this Fall,
And when Spring cornea I will the cry,
" At 1.. C. NELSON'S I will bay !"
There is one thing more I'll say to yon,
I'm in the old Stofb in ide ov r new ;
If any read, and stand the shock,
My place you'll tiad jrins I'att n's Block.

I have examined Osgood's series of Readers. they
are well graded, the selections are good, and 1 thins
them calculated to give satisfaction to all who u:.-y
have occasion to use them. 0. J. CHUIIBUCh-

Mr. J . K. Fleming—l have examined with some care
the copy of Ptibl ic School Arithmetic you sent ii; I
am much pleased with it, and thiuk such aw ;kis
needed in our Academies and Migh Schools. W< n
not speak too highly of the Osgood Readers. We i.c.e
adopted the books in orr school and the change h<s not
with universal ap probabition. Yours, truly,

Mr. J. K. Fleming—Having examined Osgood s se
ries of Readers, and found them admirably adapted to
the wants of our schools, i take pleasure in recom
mending them to teachers and friends of education
generally. My short acquaintance with'lie l>oks has
impressed me "so favorably, I hat I am almost . >nMnjin

Mr. J. K. Fleming—Sir : I have looked over the
specimen books you lelt i h me. and am much
with all of them, particularly so with the series of 0-
good's Readers. They are emphatically Progress ice
woiks, and moreover the steps of their progression are
so carefully taken, and so se. urly planted, that 1
cannot see how any teacher who follows the directions
of the author can fail of the highest success
The exercises in articulation at tho opening of ail
the lessons in the Primary numbers, atiord a past inie
as pleasant as it is profitable to those pupils wlwj*
teachers enter upou them with a spiiit and a rehsn.
and the rules and exercises in Inflection. Kmphosis.
Ac., in the more advanced numbers, are so definite ana
plain that all who attend to them en not tail to be
come good critics as well as good readers.
I cannot expre-s " briefly ' my high "Pi*®" 8 J" '
thsee works, and while i wouldbbye?", ® e ?" „

I yet rejoice that so great an advance on th
