TUESDAY, JULY la, 1806.
FOR GOVERNOR
HTESTER CLYMER,
OF BERKS COUNTY
OUR CHOICE FOE. CONGRESS: ,
Hon. Charles Denison,
UMW:et to his approval, and the concurrence of the
Democratic Conventions.]
'The majority of the Committee
raised in Congress to inquire into the
Rousseau-Grinnell caning affair report a
resolution to expel the soldier for
thrashing tho slanderer, and to only "dis
approve" the villainous falsehood and
blackguardism of the Rev. rascal, indulged
in upon the tleor of the House.
The minority report that the General
should be reprimanded for using the rat
tan, and concur with the majority on the
ether point.
making the Issue.
The Republican State Conventions in
Maine, Vermont, and other States, de
clare most emphatically that the party is
for full - political equality without respect
to race or color.
So they make the issue for themselves ;
and the man who votes for any candidate
named by a Republican Convention, en
dorses negro equality.
Clymer the best Speaker.
At the recent session of the Supreme
Court at Wilkesbarre, the Bar gave a
supper, at which a large number of the
ablest men in the State were present and
responded to calls for speeches. The Re
cord, a Republican organ, in reporting
the festival, says :
Mr. Justice Thompson followed, and
was succeeded by Mr. Hiester Clymer, who
made the most eloquent speech of the
evening.
The Record editor judged correctly for
once ; for in all this broad Common
wealth, which boasts many able and elo
quent men, few if any are found who can
justly be deemed his superior in those
qualities which combine to form the gift
ed orator.
With superior talent, liberal education,
ample experience in State affairs, his
speeches are marked by correct views,
clear, logical arguments which are ren
dered pleasing and acceptable by a fin
ished oratory which would do honor to
the older statesmen of by-gone days.
His opinions upon matters of State and
National questions are such as tend to
the unity, harmony and prosperity of the
government and the welfare of the peo
ple.
And last., not least, it is admitted, as
his record proves,ihat he is AN HONEST
MAN—just the one for Governor.
Forney's love Letter to Johnson.
The following letter, which has just
found it way into print, shows, as con
trasted with the recent " Occasional let
ters" by the same writer, a very sudden
and remarkable change of views :
New York, January 2, 1866.
MT -DEAR Ms. ntEsn:yalrr I have been
in this city for two days, and now write
under an impulse which !cannot restrain,
because I feel it to be for your own good'
and that of the country. I take it for
granted you are resolved not to be un
mindful of your own fame, and that yon
will not allow your friends, wbo heartily
sustain your policy, to feel that they are
without your aid and encouragement.
Whether you are a candidate for Presi
dent or not, and if you are not, I shall be
greatly surprised with the wonderful fa
vor that has crowned your restoration
policy, you should not allow the great of
fice to go to indifferent men, or those
clearly in the interests of your-foes. I
need not repeat to you that I am now as
ever, for twenty years shown in my wri
tings, and since your great act of patriot
ism in 1860 especially, your open and
avowed friend. Where I am to day , my
two newspapers both daily show to the
world. Hence,. in what I now say, I
speak no idle wordti, but mean all I say.
The Collector's Office at New York City
is a post that you shOuld. dispose of out
side of all the politicians; not,, I mean, to
defy them, but to select your own man,
who should be free only to help you and
serve the government—one they . could
neither attack nor use. Such a man. ii,
* * of this city. * *
an organizing mind; would make you a
party or fight your battles single banded.
He is an Andrew Johnson Deinocrat;itt
short. I write in the knowledge that he
would accept, and , that bia appointment
would be.receiyed with joy by the whole
comm unity.
Yours truly,
To the President.
This letter fully proves that Forney—
now a rabid anti Johnsonite, was 'six
months since a friend 'of the Presidents
restoration policy; and that like ithir:dis 7
unionists, he has since come vitt against
it.
Radical journals usually endorse all the
proposed acts of the disunion majority in
Congress ; - but occasionally their proposi
tions are too outrageous for approval by
their organs. As a specimen we copy
from the Philadelphia Inquirer, its re
marks about the difficulty between Grin
nell (radical) and General Rousseau
(Johnson Rep.) as follows :
M. Grinnell, of lowa, in the course of
a debate in the House of Representatives
called Mr. Rousseau, of Kentucky, a cow
ard, and made merry over the assumed
military incapacity of the latter. Mr.
Rousseau, who has "done the State some
service, and they know it," was naturally
indignant at an attack which was wanton,
malicious, and unqualifiedly false. He
waited for Mr. Grinnell to apologize, but
the latter did not offer to express any re•
gret at the circumstance. What followed?
Exactly that which might be expected
from the character of the men. Mr. Rous
seau armed himself with a cane and gave
Mr. Grinnell a switching. Mr. Grinnell
submitted.
A committee of the House was raised,
and it came to the conclusion that Mr.
Rousseau had no right to beat Mr. Grin
nell, and that Mr. Grinnell had no right
to slander Mr. Rousseau. So far so good.
What is proposed to be done about it ?
Justice would seem to say,punish each ac-
cording to the measure of his offense, but
be most severe with the original aggres
sor. It stands to reason that if Mr. Grin
nell had not called Mr. Rosseau a coward,
the, latter would not have considered it
necessary to prove by the argumentum ad
hominena that he was not. Bat the ma
jority of the committee in the House pro
pose to settle affairs in a different fashion.
They recommend that Rousseau shall be
expelled, but they have nothing to offer
in relation to the conduct of Grinnell, ex
cept that the committee disapprove of his
conduct. They do not even ask the House
to censure it by any formal ex pression be
yond this : that it, was in violation of the
rules.
- Editor.
Now, without desiring to defend by
the slightest implication the conduct of
Mr. Rousseau, which we think foolish,
undignified, unnecessary, and demonstra
ting nothing whatever except that he has
a touch of the bully in his composition,
we cannot refrain from expressing a be
lief that the conduct of Mr. Grinnell de
serves every censure and punishment that
can be visited upon his adversary.
Is it nothing to call a gallant soldier a
coward ; to insinuate that lie was an oh
jest of contempt to his men—that he was
in fact a pretender and a sneak—is not
the violation of truth in a matter affecting
a man's character of quite as much gravi
ty, and equally censurable, with an assault
which is caused by stinging words? We
think so, and our plan would have been
to either expel both, or to censure both,
or to resolve that. no notice should be ta
ken of the conduct of either.
A terrible conflagration occurred at
Portland, Maine, on the sth, which de
stroyed a large part of the city. The por
tion destroyed is one and a half miles in
length, by a quarter of a mile in breadth.
Half of the city is gone, and that half in
cluded nearly all the heavy business hous
es, the banks, the newspaper offices, the
leading churches, the telegraph offices,the
Academy of Natural HistoE,y, and many
other edifices of taste, beauty and useful
ness. The loss cannot well be computed,
but it may be counted by tens of millions
in present value, and the stoppage of bus
iness, which will multiply it to a much
higher figure. Of course thousands of
people, men, women and children, have
been rendered homeless by this terrible
conflagration. The churches and public
buildings which escaped the confiagra-.
tion have been opened for their tempora
ry accommodation, and tents have been
erected in the snberbs to shelter the nee
dy and destitute. .
fgr'The Philadelphia Bulletin seems
to regret that Payne's dagger or bludg
eon did not do its work more thoroughly,
for, speaking of Secretary Seward in con
nection with, the Garrison testimonial, it
says:
"Mr. Garrison has a noble list of in
dorses. Senators, governors, judges,
soldiers, civilians, poets, cabinet minis
ters, the leading men ofletters, commerce
and the Arts, combine to do him honor.—
Strange to say, thename of William H.
Seward is missing•from . this brilliant cat
alogue of 'America's brightest names.—
There are men who seem, in human eyes,
to die too soon. There are others who
seem to live too long."
Really, when one contrasts such feroci
ty as this with the " loyalty" of three
years ago, when fair criticism on Mr.
Seward was resented as a public wrong,
it is difficult to believe we are walking the
same streets or breathing the same air.
General Geary visited York on last
Thursday evening, and being serenaded,
made a low, vulgar speech, denouncing
.the Democratic and Vonseriative soldiers
who refuse' to vote for him and the Dis
union partrhe represents, as Hessians.—
Frew his speech we should take him to
be,without ability, and ,worse still, void of
the, cultivation ofa gentleman and soldier:

opponents generally.—York Gaz,

Address of Democratic - gL.Consernative
Members of Congress.
To the People of the United. States :
Dangers threaten. The Constitution, •
the citadel of our liberties, is directly as
sailed. The future is dark unless the peo
ple will come to the rescue. In this hour
of peril, National Union should be the
watchword of every true man. As essen
tial to National Union, we must maintain
unimpaired the rights, the dignity, and
equality of the States, including the right
of representation in Congress; and the ex- •
elusive right, of each -State-to control its
own domestic, concerns, subject only to
the Constitution of the United State's.
After a uniform construction of the Con
stitution for more than half a century, the
assumption of new and arbitrary powers
in the Federal Government is subversive
of our system, and destructive of liberty.
A free interchange of opinion and kind
feeling between the citizens of all the
States is necessary to the prosperity of the
Union. At present eleven States are ex
cluded from the National council.
For seven long months the present Con
gress has persistently denied any right of
representation to 'the people of those
States. Laws affecting their highest and
dearest interests have been passed-with
out their consent and in defiance of the
fundamental principle of free government.
This denial of representation has been
made to all the members from a State, al
though the State, in the language of the
President, " presents itself not only in an
attitude of loyalty and harmony, but in
the persons of representative whose loyal
ty cannot be queStioned under any consti
tutional or legal test." The representa
tives of nearly one third of the States arc
denied participation in the great questions
of the day. There has been no nationali
ty surronnding.the present Congress.—
There has been no intercourse between
the representatives of the two sections,
producing mutual confidence and respect.
In the language of the distinguished
Lieutenant-General, " it is to be regreted
that at this time there cannot be a great
er commingling between the citizens of
the two sections, particularly Of those en
trusted with the law-making power."—
This state of things should be removed at
once and forever.
Therefore, to preserve the National Un
ion, to vindicate the sufficiency of our ad
mirable Constitution, to guard the States
from covert attempts to deprive' thetn of
their true position in the Union, and to
bring together those who are unnaturally
severed, and for these great national pur
poses only, we cordially approve the call
tor a National Union Convention, to be
held at the city of Philadelphia, on the
second Tuesday (the 14th) of August
next, and indorse the principles therein
set forth. We therefore respectfully but
earnestly urge•upon our fellow-citizens in
each State and Territory and Congres
sional District in the United States in the
interest of the Union, and in a spirit ofl
harmony, and with direct reference tO tfie
principles contained in said call, to'aiet
promptly in the selection of wise, moder
ate and conservative men to represent
them in said Convention, to the end that .
all the States shall at once be restored to
theirpractiml relations to the Union, the
Constitution maintained, and peace bless
the whole country.

Important Railroad Decision.
It will be remembered that in Februa
ry last, a snit, was brought before Justice
Read, of the Supreme Court, to test the
legality of the lease of the Catawissa Rail
road to. the Atlantic and Great Western
Railroad Company, At that time Judge
Read decided that the lease was invalid.
and v,oid;, The case was re-argued, be
fore a full •bench, at Wilkesbarre, last
week, when the Court reversed the decis
ion of Justice Read—the Judges standing
four in favor of reversion to one against.
OrThe Bar of Luterne' county gave
an entertainment to the Supreme Bench
.of Pennsylvania-ut Wilkesbarre t on the
evening of •Wednesday, 27th ult. John
W. Forney was. one of the invited guests.
He did not go, but sent a letter and the
following sentiment : •
The Elective Judiciary of Pennsylvania :
One of the best proofs that'the American
people are fit for self-government, and
that the voice of the majority is a better
guide .than a tyrant's will. •
"go The voice of the majority" of the Su
preme Court having pronounced the "De
serter Law" a nullity, we trust the malig
nant Radicals whO were SO' anxious to
.condemn ,thousands of their fellow citi
zens through the exercise of a " tyrant's
will accept that voice as.a " better
guide" than the markzof a petty provost
marshal. ,
—The names of one hundred and forty
sir honorablrdiseharoed soldiers of Lan
caster are appended to'a call for a raeeti:
ingt,o establish a Clymer club:
Forney, the Negro Champion.
The voters of Pennsylvania will bear in
mind that J. W. Forney has announced
himself a (Andidate for U. S. Senator, to
take Senator Cowan's place, whose term
will expire in:1867.
In announcing himself Forney declares
his purpose, if elected, " tp confer impar
tial suffrage upon American citizens of
whatever creed, color or nativity." The
people must see to it, therefore, that no
State Senator or even Assemblyman is
elected favorable to Forney or the party
with which he affiliates.
For' the same reason John W. Geary,
who was Forney'fl Urdeut,ehoice for Gov
ernor, must be defeated. lt is important,
also, that no member of Congress should
be elected who is tinctured with the ne
gro mania. Negro suffrage is clearly the
issue now before the country, and unless
the people repudiate it through the can
didates, they will never have an opportu
nity to vote upon the question at all. The
leaders of the so called Republican party
do not intend to allow a popular vote ev
er to be taken upon the question of negro
suffrage. Their design is to secure it thro'
the,legerdernain of Federal and State leg
islation and clinch it by means of a sub
sidized court, presided over by a judge
who is a candidate for the Presidency,
and consequently vitally interested in the
addition of so vast a number of black vo
ters to that party. Voters of Pennsylva
nia, there is danger ahead ! Look well
to your interests and rights !
The European War.
The war in Europe, which has long
been expected, has at length broken out.
Prussia, which seems to have been look
ing for a pretext to begin hostilities, and
hoping that Austria would take the initia
tive, has grown tired of waiting. The de
cision of the Diet, that the Federal ar
mies should be mobilized, and that execu
tion should be awarded against Prussia
to compel her to keep the peace of Ger
many, has been resented by the with
drawal of Prussia from the Confedera
tion, and by a declaration ou her part that
the union is at an end. She followed up
that act promptly by moving her armies
into Hanover and Saxony, members of
the Confederation.
On the 17th her troops entered Dres
den. The King of Saxony withdrew to
Bohemia with his treasures, and the Sax
on army marched to concentrate with the
Prussians. Most of these movements
preceded the formal declaration of war,
which was made by Prussia on the 18th
ult. On the same day the Italian Gov
ernment declared war against Austria, a
coincidence which shows how closely
Prussia and Italy are working together.
These very prompt movements give Prus
sia certain - strategic ad vantages, and place
her hi situations of importance in the cam
paign. She has undertaken a bold game.
She is now endervoving to Sght nearly
the whole of Germany, for Austria has
the advantage of having eight important
powers which voted with her in the Diet,
on her - side. The Prussians had but five
votes beside their Own, and they are com
posed' mostly of inferior States, which can
add very !lure to her strength.
The Federal army was concentrating
near Frankfurt, and at that place it was
thought an important battle would be
fought.
This war commences under portentious
circumstances. The great number of
troops, the high state of military science
on both sides; and the resolution of the
combatants, combine to render the phis
pect of the conflict most exciting. Whilst
behind the Prusians and Italians stands
France, ready to intervene at the oppor
tune moment, , it is now believed that be
hind Austria stands'Russia ; and it is said
that Gortshakoff has given notice that if
France intervenes, Russia will take apart
in the contest on the side of Austria.
Suicide of Senator Lane of Kansas
LEAVENIV . O4TII, July 2.—Senator Lane,
of this state, shot himself last. evening, in
flicting a wound which resulted fatally at
nine o'clock to day.,He has been acting•

" An Honest Han."
Notwithstanding the fierce manner in
which the More reckless and abandoned
portion of the _radical journals have as
sailed the Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor, they all, nevertheless, without a
single exception, we believe, admit sod
avow it as their belief, that " HiesterCly
mer is an horiesvinan.".; When Lowry,
the fanatical Senator froni Erie, was in
formed that Mr. Clymer had received the
nomination for Governor, he remarked,
"well, the Democrats have one thing to
boast of; and that is that their candidate
is an honst man; no one-can deny that."
This to (tome from Lowry was saying.a
good deal. Clymer, then, it is admitted
on all hands is an honest, man, and Shake
speare tells us that" an honest man le the
noblest work of God."
Are not the people safe, then, •when
they place the honor and welfare of the
State in the keeping of a man of unbend
ing integrity ? An honest man cannot be
a bad or selfish man. It was his charac
ter for honesty that made old Francis R.
Shunk the idol oldie people. Re was vo
ted for when he, ran for Governor by hun
dreds of men who did not, endorse his
political 'opinions, but they knew him to
be a man,of ability, firmness,and honesty,
and they felt safe when the destiny of
the State was committed to his hands.
Iliester Clymer,. like Francis R. Shrink,
will, in the event of his election, bend his
efforts to correct the abuses that have
existed in this Statetoo long. God knows
it is time that Pennsylvania should have
e second Shuuk at the helm. The very
atmosphere• at the State. Capitol smells
with corruption. Mammoth corporations
have, for many years, wielded a power
over the Legislative and• the Executive
departments at once detrimental to the
interests of the people at large•and dam
aging the name of Pennsylvania. Men
with money in their hands. have with
brazen audacity bought themselves into
places of power by corrupting the repre•
sentatives of the people. Bills have pass
ed both Houses and become laws through
the same potent agency, and it has be - -
come a bye word, at Harrisburg that mon
ey and corruption are the only argument
that can command attention or secure
success
Such being the admitted facts, is it not
our duty as it, is
_our privilege to correct
these fl agrant wrongs by electing an hon
est man to. till the -gubernatorial chair ?
But it is not only his character for integ
rity that, makes Mr. Ctimer.a man of note.
He is a sagacious, far seeing statesman
and a ripe scholar, possessing rare admin
istrative abilities. With hum - as our Gov
ernor, Pennsylvania will once more as
sutne the proud position of former years,
when men of honor and character held
the helm that guided the ship of State.
Let the yeomanry. of our State reflect
over these self. evident truths, and, cast
ing party. hacks. and plundering dema
gogues aside, vote for the man of ability,
the man of integrity, Hiester Clymer of
Old Berks.—Carlisle Volunteer.
