    lion, now that peace has-cline, , no* that
the war is over, we want vain the benefit
of a written Constitistiond I say the
time has eomo to take tbb Constitution
down, to unroll it, to re-read it, to under
stand its provisions theroUgily, and now,
in order to save the Government, we
must preserve the Constitution.
TIIE CONSTITUTION MUST NOT SE VIOLA-
Our only safety is in a strict a dherence
.
to and preservation of the Const itution of
our fathers. It is now unfolded. It must
now be read, it must now be digested and
understood by the American people. I
am here to day, then, in making these re
marks to vindicate the Constitution and
to save it, as I believe, for it does seem as
if encroachment after encroachment is
proposed open it. As far as I can I hare
ever resisted encroachments upon the
Constitution, and I stand prepared to re
sist them to day, and thereby to preserve
the Constitution and the Government of
the United States. (Great applause.)
It is now a
,time \of peace, and let us
have peace; let us enforce the Constitu
tion; let us live under, and according to
its provisions' let it be published atlprin
ted in blazing characters as though it
were in the heavens, and punctuated by
the stars, so that all can read and all can
understand. Let us consult that instru
ment and be guided by its provisions.
Let us understand their understanding,
and abide by them.
PERMANENCY OF TIIE CONSTITUTION
I tell the opposers of this Government
I care not from what quarter they come,
East or West, North or South, you that
are engaged in the work of breaking up
the Government,aremistaken. The Con
stitution of the United States and the
principles of free Government are deeply
rooted in the American heart, and all the
powers combined cannot destroy that
great instrument, that great chart of free
dom.
Their attempts, though they may seem
to succeed for a time, will be futile. They
might as well undertake to lock up the
winds or chain the waves of the ocean
and confine them within limits. They
might as well undertake to repeal the con
stitution, and indeed it seems now to be
supposed that it can be repealed by a con
current resolution : (Laughter.)
But when the question is submitted to
the popular judgment, and to the mass of
the people, these, men will find that they
mightjust as well introduce a resolution
to repeal the laws of gravitation. The at
tempt to keep this Union from being re
stored is just about as feasible as would
be resistance to the great law of gravita
tion, which binds all to a common centre.
GREAT POLITICAL LAW
The great law of political gravitation
will bring back these States, and replace
them in all their relations to the Federal
Government. Cliques and cabals, and
conspiracies, and machinations, North or
South, cannot prevent this great consum
'natio) Y • . L
people get to understand what is going
on, and they will soon manifest their de
termination.
Here, by way of explanation, let me say,
that I would to God the whole American
people could be assembled here to day,
as you are. I wish there were a vast am
phitheatre here, capacidifs enough to con
tain the whole thirty millions, and they
could witness the great struggle that is
going on to preserve the Constitution of
their fathers. They would soon settle the
question, if they could once see how
things are; if they could see the kind of
spirit that, is manifested in the effort to
break up the real principles of free Gov
ernment; when they came to understand
who was for them, and whoagainst them,
who was for ameliorafng the condition,
and who for elevating them by preserving
their Government.
THE PEOPLE WILL CRUSH FANATICS
If the combatants could stand before
them, and there could be a regular set-to
between the respective gladiators, in the
first tilt that might be made you would
find that the enemies of the country would
be crushed, and the people would sustain
its friends and the friends of constitution
al liberty. (Great cheering.)
My fellow citizens, I have detained you
much conger than I intended (" go on; go
on") but we are in a great struggle, and
I am your instrument, and I have thought
it best to express frankly when I ask you,
have I usurped authority? Who is it in
this country that I have not toiled and la
bored for ? Where is the• man or the wo
man, either in private life or public life;
that has pot at ways received my attention
and my time ?
Sometimes it has been said (pardon me
for being a little egotistical, but we are
engaged in a friendly and familiar conver
sation.) " That man Johnson is a lucky
man. (Laughter.) They can never de
feat him." (Laughter.) Now I will tell
you what constitutes my good luck. It
is in doing right and being for the people.
(Great applause.)
POPULAR INSTINCT.
The people, somehow or other, although
their sagacity and good judgment are
very frequently underrated, and under es
timated generally, get to find out and un
derstand who is for them,
end who is
against them. They do it by instinct, if
in no other way. They know who is their
friend. They know in whom they can
confide.
So far, thank God, I can lay my hand
upon my bosom, and -state with heartfelt
satisfaction, that • in all the positions in
which I have been" piped, in many that,
were as trying as any ID which mortal has
been placed. I have never deserted them,
nor do I believe they will desert me. (No
co, and applanse. '• •
Whom haye.l- betrayed ? What prin.
ciple have I violated P What sentiment
have I swerved from P Can those who
assail me, put their fineer upon any one ?
No, no. In all the speeches that, have
been made no - one has dared to put is fin
ger upon a single princi . ple Y ever asserted
from which I" have deviated.
Have you not heard some of '.them; at
somB time, attempt to quote mypredeces.:
sor, who fell a, martyr to his country's
cense, but they can give no sentiment of
his that is in opposition or in contradic
tion to anything that I have done.
PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S POLICY.
The very policy that I am 'now pursu
ing was pursued by me under his admin
istration, I having been appointed by him
in a particular position for t hat very pur
pose. An inscrutable Providence saw
proper to remove him from this, to I trust,
a better world, and I came into his place,
and there is not a principle of his, in refer
ence to th:restoration of the Union, from
which I have departed. None.
Then the war is not simply upon me,
but it is my predecessor also. I have
tried to do my duty. I know that some
are envious and jealous and speak of the
White House as having attractions for
the President., Let me say to you, the
charms of the White House have as little
influence upon me as upon any individual
in this country, and much less upon me
than upon those who are talking about it.
The little that I eat and wear, does not
amount to much, and the difference be
tween what is enough to sustain me and
my little family, is very small; flu. lam
not kin to many folks by consanguinity,
though by affinity I am a kin to every
body.
The difference between the little that
suffices for my stomach and back and
more than enough has no charms for me.
The proud and conscientious satisfaction
of having performed my duty to my coun
try, to my children and to the inner man,
is all the reward that I ask. (Great ap
plause.)
In conclusion, let me ask this vast con
course here to day, this sea of upturned
faces, to come with me, or I will go with
you and stand by the Constitution of our
country. It is again unfolded. The peo
ple are invited to read and understand, to
sustain and maintain its provisions.
HE WILL STAND FIRMLY BY THE CONSTITti-
Let us stand by the Constitution of our
fathers, thou„0•12 the heavens themselves
should fall. Though faction may rage,
though taunts and jeers may come, though
abuse and vituperation may be poured
out in the most virulent form, I mean to
be found standing by the Constitution of
the country; standing by the Constitution
as the chief ark of our safety, as the pal
ladium of onr civil and our religious liber
ty.
Yes, let ns cling to it as the mariner
clings to the last plink, when the night
and the tempest close around him. Ac
cept my thanks, my countrymen, for the
indulgence have extended to me
while sub -re
now made. Let us
go away for' the past, and looking
to the future, resolved to endeavor to re
store our Government to its pristine pu
rity, trusting in Him who is on high, but
who controls all here below, that ere long
our Union will be restored, and that we
shall have peace not only with aN the na
tions of the earth, but peace and good
will among all parts of the people of the
United States.
CONCLUSION
I thank you for the respect you have
manifested to me on this occasion, and if
the time shall come dnring the period of
my existence, when this country is to be
destroyed and its Government overturned,
if yon will look out you will find the hum
ble individual who stands before you
there with you, endeavoring to avert its
final destruction.
The President retired amidst a perfect
storm of applause.
The Influence of Newspapers.
Occasionally an individual says to us
" times are so hard with me, I must stop
my paper," or as in some instances, "my
wife thinks we can dispense with the pa
per now, and I must stop." Thus it is,
stop the paper the first thing as a useless
expense, without thinking of the actual
waste of money for many things drank,
eat, smoked or chewed, which can do the
system no good, but rather harm.
The newspaper, can, or should, be re
garded as a benefit to every household;
it imparts useful information; it furnishes
subjects for thought and conversation; it
adds charm to social intercourse it makes
agreeable members of society. To be
without a newspaper one might as well
be out of the world; he becomes a per
fect nobody; when he goes into society
and bears others talk about current events
and discusses questions of local or gener
al interest, be can take no part in these
things because . be is not posted up, not
having read the papers. Aod in the fam
ily circle what an influence the paper has
—the children read it and gain knowl
edge; it serves to occupy their leisure
hours, to keep them from frivolous amuse
ments, and gives an attraction to home.
Surely, then, no wise parent would con
sent to go without a newspaper in his
family—and a local home newspaper too.
lie may think be can get along without
it, because he is out in the world, and can
have the reading of the paper from his
neighbors' shop or store or can learn what
is going , onfrom* others. But this is ra
ther a mean way. Men ought to be inde
pendent. They ought to read for them
selves. If, however,, they think they do
not need the papei theinselves, they may
.rest assured, their do. Consider
ations like these should have their, weight,
and should induce those Who have bad
thoughts of '•stopping -their newspapers
not to do so, and for those:who have not
taken a paper to subsotibe at once for one.

TUESDAY, MARCH 6, 1866.
Address of the Democratic State Cen
tral Committee. • •
HARRISBURG, Feb. 9, 1866.
To the Democracy of Pennsylvania :
The events of the last political canvass
are yet fresh in your minds.
You announced your unequivocal en
dorsement of the restoration policy of
President Johnson, and denounced the
doctrine of negro suffrage.
Your opponents affirmed their support
of the President, and evaded the issue up
on theAnestion of suffrage..
A powerful organization, large official
patronage and an unscrupulous use of
money, secured to them the victory.,
The record of the past month stripsthe
mask from the face of the victors.
They treat with derision the declared
policy of the President. They have plac
ed the government of the Constitution in
abeyance, and its legislative and execu
tive functions are usurped by a cabal of
men, who, in obedience to caucus, gov
ern the nation through the forms of a di
rectory.
The right of each State to regulate the
qualifications of its electors is denied; the
will of the people of the District of Co
lumbia is overridden, and by an almost
unanimous vote. The Republican party
in Congress and the State Legislature ac
cord to the negro equal political rights
with the white man.
The iniatial step toward a war of races
has been taken, and a consolidated gov
ernment looms np in the distance.
The tenets of the President upon these
points are our cardinal doctrines. In sus
taining him we vindicate them.
Organize in every nook and corner of
the Commonwealth.
Organize to sustain the President, to
maintain your principles, to restore the
Union, to vindicate the supremacy of
your race, and to bury in political oblivi
on the men who have been false to the
Union, false to their pledges, false to the
instincts of their blood, and true alone to
the madness that rules the hour:
By order of the Democratic State Cen
tral Committee.
WILLIAM' A. WALLACE,
Chairman.
Andrew Johnson's Speech.
We print the entire speech of the Pres
ident this week, and ask all to read it
carefully. The country is fortunate in
having a President who entertainsyiews
rickionian courage to thus boldly avow
them ; and no true friend of free govern
ment can do justice to himself without
rendering a hearty endorsement to the
correct principles therein set forth, or
which may be in future enunciated.
As about halt' the Republican organs
refused to print the speech, our readers
should lend this paper to their Republi
can neighbors. Let Truth and Light reach
all men, even though some of them pre
fer to cover themselves with Error and
Darkness.

Curses come Home to Roost.
The Freedmen's Bureau bill would
have been passed in the Senate, over the
veto of the President, but for the adverse
votes of the two Senators from West Vir
ginia ; a State erected by the radicals in
direct defiance of the Constitution, for
the sole purpose of perpetuating their
power.
Veto by the President.
President Johnson has vetoed the bill
entitled "An act to establish a Bureau
for the Relief of Freedmen and Refugees
and for other purposes." As the bill orig
inated in She Senate, it was returned to
that body, which failed to pass it over
the veto by a two-thirds vote, and there
fore the measure is dead. Thew is great
rejoicing over the result among the late
rebels and their copperhead friends; tho,
it must be admitted that many prominent
men who have heretofore been known sa l
zealous 'Unionists also sustain the Presi
dent's course. It looks now as if there,
must inevitably be a split between th&
President and his advisers and the majori
ity in Congress. The great mass of Un-,
ion men will undoubtedly side with Coni
press • but it is a serious thing for the fu-1
tare of our country that this conflict has
occurred. How far it will go, and what
the consequences will be, time only can
determine.—Montrose Republican.
'Die writer of the above wishes his
readers to understand that the President
is in unison with rebels, etc., but don't
dare say so plainly as many of his readers
do.
Of course -there is a "split" between
President and Congress, but " tbe great
mass of iTsiox men" will side with the
President, and great good must result
therefrom.
rEr'Special attention of Merchants and
others is invited to Card- in this issue of
Howell & Bourke, Manufacturers of Wall
Papers, etc. etc.
11EIrThad . Stevens' concurrent resolu
tion, forbidding, for an indefinite period,
any representation in Congress from one
third of the States of the Union, has pass
ed both branches. Luckily, this concur
rent resoliition is not law.
-An.
The rupture in the Republican party
grows more complete every day—one side
supporting, and the other opposing the
President in restoring the Union. The
'radical leaders, tvho, as the President
says, are laboring "to destroy the Gov
ernment," and are therefore traitors, are
very abusive. For instance listen to J.
W. Forney, D. D., who in his " occasion
al" letter to the Press of the 27th says :
" There is not a Union member in ei
ther branch of Congress whose table is
not covered with the fiercest. denuncia
tions of Audrow Johnson. Never have I
known such an uprising. It is not exhib
ited in bitter scorn at stupendous ingrati
tude, but horror at a betrayal coming
from a source in which such unstinted
confidence bad been reposed. The rebell
ion itself was a great betrayal—an organ
ized ingratitude—an armed, defiant sur
prise of a generous and protecting gov
ernment. But here is an act of individu
al turpitude, so cold blooded in its prep
aration and intended to work such fatal
consequences, that even the spirit of the
rebellion pales its inefiectual fires before

—The shoddy Pittsburg Gazette says
that the Blacks "may strike back—seek

—The shoddy majority at the local elec

Of a highly respectable citizen, well known to the Mer

DR:. 3. 11. SCHENCK,
THE GREAT LUNG DOCTOR OF PRILADRLPRIA.
Conies N. Y; AND GALENA LiAO Cc
No. 2,8 Lk:limn St. New York, June 1, 1865
Da..J.B. Summit—Dear Sir :—Nor overillteengeara
Ihave been troubled with's severe cough,-and aanally
two or three times a year with more or lees honer- -
rhage. which together, for the last few years, hall kept
me thin in flesh and too weak to do business of any
kind without suffering. In August last I hada very se
vere hemorrhage. and according to the judgment of a
good New York physician, I was classed as beeond the
reach of medicine, and was advised to be prepared( so
far as property matters were concerned, to leave this
world at short notice. The physician (and my good
friends) said that the Bret cold I took must prove fatal.
Early in January I took a severe cold, and fortunately
was occupying rooms at No. au Bond street, directly
over your office. I think about tha 16th of January
procured a bottle of your pultuontc Syrup and com
menced taking it freely. Mrfeet and limbs were very
much swollen, and all the symptoms of a speedy death
seemed to at-company my cold. I sent for my former
physician and stated to him. that I was taking your
medicines, and after showing them to him, and having
tasted of them, (tc., he replied : " Yon can take them
if you like, they will do you no harm." lie said "You
know what I told you last summer, and I say the same
now, if you have any business to close up, do not put It
off." He said to other friends that he could see no
hope for me, and my friends and relations concluded
my time had come. At this time I was taking freely of
your medicine, but had not yet seen pin. The doctor
called a few times, and found me (much to Mesta-prise,
he said.) improving, and he could not dnderstand why.
My faith was increaalug in your medicines, and I had a
wish to have you examine ray case, and Sec what yon
had to say. When you first came to my room and made
the examination, you gave me but little encourage
ment, but on the contrary, expressed sad doubts of my
ever being helped out of my then seeming difficulties
The second time that you called, finding me still gain
ing, yon gave me encouragement. saying, •* Your sym
toms are improving: the Pulmenic Syrup. Sea-Weed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills had acted like a chem." My
circulation, my cough, my appetite, all began to im
prove, and I could walk about my room a little. Ton
visited me nearly every Tuesday. and found me improv
ing, and told me not to go pot of my room until the first
day of May. I took no cold while under your treat
ment. my appetite became first rate, and you told me to
eat everything f wished of a nutritious nature, and to
exercise about the room as mach impossible. I follow
ed your advice, and to the surprise of my old physician
and friends, I seem much better than I have been for
several years, and breathe better than I have ever ex
pected a person conic, with one lung, the left being com
pletely dried up. I feel very gratefal to you, and con
sider your advice and mediciLes invaluable.
Yours, Truly,
T. S. SHELDON.
Die. Senn:ink—Dear Sir :`---Aboutiwo years ama I was
taken with a very troublesome cough and a pain in my
breast; seven or eight months passed away without my
doing anything for myself. Then I applied to a physi
cian, who attended me fur about three months without
rendering me any service. I also obtained the advice
and treatment of a physician in one of our hospitals,
and also had the advice and treatment of two other phy
sicians hut all to no pm pose. During this long space
of time 1 was nearly dead; several times my friends
cause to see me and witness my exit into the spirit
world. I was confined to my bed two months at one
time. My breathing was exceedingly short. I gave
ep several times all hope of getting better; and as re
garded getting better; and as regarded gettiu_ well, that
was entirel out of the question.. And to think this
day lam well and hearty ! I was advised by some of
my friends to try Dr. Schenck - 's Medicines. I aecor
(tingly bought bottle after bottle, until I reached the
ninth; then I found a decided change in my cott a for
the better. I suffered severely from palpitation of the
heart, and two weeks after I commenced taking your
medicine this difficulty ceased.
When I first went to Dr. Schenrk'a office it was with
difficulty that I could get np into his reception room, I
was so weak and so swelled; my skin was as sallow as
though I had the jaundice; I felt dull, heavy and sleep
less. Dr. Schenck, after t xamining me. said both my
lungs were affected, and cave me but little hope; but
his medicines, in about two week", took right hold of
me; it seemed to go right through my whole system.
The Pulmonlc Syrup. Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills, all took right bold in the right place. The Pills
brought away great quantities of bile and slime; the
Syrup loosened the matter In my lunge, which c , me nil
very frse; the Sea Weed Tonic gave me an appetite, and
everything seemed to taste good.
To sho a what great power the medicines have in
pnrifyingmpsystem, and to show bow bad I was dis
eased, beside all the bile that passed my bowels, and
'he groat qnantities of phlegm and matter I expecto
rated. T broke out all over in large boils, that world
continuous gather and run for about ant weeks, and I
had nt one time over twenty five boils. I have nothing
of the kind now, and feel like another person altogeth

for five crass as I do now, and cannot praise vett and

HISTORY Or THE WORLD.
BIC PHILIP SMITH, B. A.,
One of the principal contributors to the Dictionaries of
Greek and Roman Antiquities, Illosraphy. and Geog
raphy.
Plaza. of . tb. *VVrcorls..
Since Sir Walter Raleigh solaced his imprisonment In
the Tower by the composition of his "History of the
World," the Literature of England has never achieved
the work which he left nnfinisked. There have been
" Dui verval Histories," fr un the bulk of an encyclopav
dia to the most meagre outline, in vpich the annals of
each nation are separately recorded t but without an at
tempt to trace the nor) , of Divine Providence and hu
man progress in one connected narrative; It is pro
posed to supply this want bya work, condensed enough
to keep it within a reasonable size, and yet so fall as to
be free from the dry baldness of an epitome. The liter
ature of Germany abounds In history—such as More of
Schlosser, Karl Von Rotteck, Dl:tucker, and oth
ers,—which at once prove the demand for each st book,
and furnish models, in some degree, for Its execution.
But even those great works are somewhat deficient irs
that organic unity which is the chief aim of this" lila
tory of the World."
The story of our whole race, like that of each separate
nation, has "a beginning, a middle and an end." That
story we propose to follow, from its beginning In the sa
cred records, and from the dawn of civilizat ion in the
East.—through the sueeet lye Oriental 'Empires,—the
rise of I i betty and the perfection of heathen polity. arts,
and literature in Greece and Rome,—the change which
parsed over the face of. the world when the light of
Christianity sprung up—the origin and first appearance
of those barbarian races which overthrew both divisions
of the Roman Empire,—the annals of the States which
rose on the Empire's ruins, including the , picturesque
details of medieval history, and the steady progress of
modern liberty and eivilization.—and the extension o
these Influences, by discovery, conquest, colonization,
and Chi hake missions, to the remotest regions of the
earth. In a word, as separate histories reflect the del
Cached scene, of human action and Buffering, our rim is
to bring into one view the several parts which assured
ly form one great whole. moving onwards, under the
guidance ofDlvine Provident°, to the unknown end or
dained in the Divine purposed.

No pains will be spared to make this history scholar
like in purpos., and.popnlar in style. It will be found

from the modern science of comparative philology, and
the discoveries which have laid open new sources of In
