tees ; and but little legidation *ill be
completed until 'after the holidays. We
only note Some of the most important
ineasures.
A. J. Rogers (Dem.) has offered a bill
to repeal the neutrality laws.
The House has passed a bill to prevent
the Clerk of any future Houle from pia
ding upon- the roll of members of a new
Congress, any names of members from
States not allowed representation in the'
previous Congress. The object" of this is
to render disunion perpetual.
In the Senate, a bill providing for un
qualified negro suffrage is the District of
Columbia, was passed by a vote of 32 to
13. The House will doubtless concur,
and send the bill to the President, who
will veto it ; when it will be returned and
a tnpted over the veto by the, disunion
Inijorily, who intend to force negro equal
iv upon the people, against their wishes,
and under severe penalties.
—Since the above was written, the
House passed the bill by a vote of 118 to
40.
Di-union and negro equality are the
sealed issues made by Congress, and for
which the people must hold the :members

Circulate Democratic Papem.
We don't know who is responsible for
the following sensible remarks, as we
found them floating aroundin Our exchan
ges without being credited to their au
thor. But we beg to cal the attention
of the DemersCy to them, and particu
larly the three thousand Demoontta in
Susquehanna county: . _
The constant iteration of the Cry "
Cir
rulate Democratic papers," bas, we be
lieve, done some good. We believe that
m ; ire general eJnviciion now exists with
Democrats generally that it is their duty
to aid in circulatinti sound papers, and in
discouraging the circtdation of unsound
one: than at any former time. But . we
are also convinced that in this respect we
are still far behind our opponents. They
wid rarely ever touch os read a Demo
cratic paper, and while this is carrying
bigotry too - tar, yet. Demparats often err
in exactly the opposite extreme. For
some trifle they will be induced to sub
scribe for a paper that will poison the
minds of their children, and make them
inveterate abolitionists. It is no more
than justice to say that every man who
now publishes a Democratic paper, a does
a sell-sacrificing . work, and, as
class; n e know of no snore trueOr patriotic
men than the Democratic editors of the
Northeru *States. - As a body, they are
far in advance of the politicians, who in
many instances, are dead weights upon
t hem. We say, therefore, that if there is
any class of men who deserve well of
Democrats, it is, taken as a whole, the
Democratic editors. We urge, thereto's;
that Democrats generally should try to
understand the difficulties under Which
heir editors labor, and when they see
what advantages the abolition press have
over them, they will feel blie•tating bold
and aiding them with material aid in
their unequal fight. •
As the new year approaches, let a sly's
t ematio effort be made to give a wide ex- 1
tension to Democratic journals. Active
Demoerats sl.onld commence early mak- I
ins out lists of those who ought to, and '
probably will, (if called upon) take either
a local or a city paper or perhaps both.
Let it be the business some one to see
his Democratic neighbors, and urge upon
them the necessity of sustaining their pa
pers. Democrats must be doubl y vigi
lant, if they would peipetuate ,the ir prut
ciples and save repubfican - piineSpiee from
complete overthrow, and their children
from the crushing taxation of a moneyed
aristocracy and a monopolist's despotism:
That's sound doctrine!
The Pardoning Power.
When you bear radicala denouncing
PresidvntJohnson for pardoning repen-
tant confederates, just. refer them to the
following ebinse - of the act of Uongrees
ps.ssed by them, and proved July 17th
/802, by President Lincoln. Sec.. 13,

"The President is hereby authorized,
at any time hereafter, by proclamation, to
extend to persons who may have partici
pated in the existing rebellion iunnratate

Report -
The Provost Marshal General at Wash
ington has published his Report in full,
concerning the war. it contains some
interesting facts. It appears that the
FederatUnioalside of the,contest, there
vre-'
fete the enormous numbei of 2,870,481
men put into the military service - as sol
diers. Of these, 280,738 officers and men
lost their lives. The whole number called
for by the President Lincoln during the
war was 2,942,748, so that all the quotas
were not s filled There was a lack of 252,-
•
10 men., .The general governmentpaid
bouotiea amounting to $300,223,500. The
whole number of representative ?milks
furnished by med not enrolled and not Hsi
able to draft, was 1,292. The average
number of desertions was sixty two and
fifty one one hundredth to every thousand
men. California and Hans:m.llnd the lar
gest ratio'of deserters,and the New Eng
land Siates rank next on this score. The
desertions from the New Hampshire rolls
were one hundred and twelve and twen
ty two one hundredth for every thousand
men. The total number of negro troops
put into the service was 186,017, who,
the radicals declare, fought about all the
battles and won the final victory, which
is a libel on every white soldier in the ser
vice. But Ibis Provost Marshal's Report
settles the matter. It shows that the ne
gro deaths by disease in camp were vast
ly greater than by the casnaltiesof battle,
and that in fact but very few of these ne
groes were ever in battle at all. The re
port says that the ratio of mortality among
the negro troops was no less than one hun
dred forty one and thirty nine one hun
dredths to every thousand, while the
highest ratio on the white volunteer list
is one hundred fourteen and two one bun
dretba, and the general volunteer ratio
was fifty nine and twenty two one hun
dredths. The report adds :
"This disparity is the more remarka
ble because thb colored troops were not
so severely exposed during the war to
hardships of field service proper, as is ev
identfrom the fact that their battle inor-
taliiy is bat sixteen and eleven one lan- '
dredths per thousand, while that of the
volunteers is thirty five and ten one bun
dreths. The ratio of. deaths by disease I
among the colored troops compares still
more unfavorably with that of the rega
l:iris; which is but forty two and twenty
seven one handretbs per thousand. It
seems to indicate that the negro, in the
condition in which the war found him,
was less able thsurthe white toendure the
exposure and annoyances of military ser
vice. It may be assumed that where one
man dies of disease, at lastifive others are
seriously sick, so t hat a large proportion
of the colored troops mast have been
constantly upon the sick list."
That places this negro business in its
true light.. A large proportion of them
were not only unfit for service, but a
large force of whites had to be constantly
detailed to take care of the sick and
worthless negroes in camp, so that the
white troops would actually have been
stronger and more effective if no negroes
bad ever been put into service. Let the
radical negro worshipers put that in their
pipe and smoke it.
The fliteshequin Tragedy—Further
Particulars.
On Tuesday, 21st lust., one of the moat
distressing occurrences we have ever
been called upon to record, took place in
Sheshequin township. , The fats as we
have received them from reliable persons
are as follows :
rn the forenoon of •that day, Mr. John
IrtigOand, a respectable farmer, residing
in the upper pan of the valley came into
his house from the field, and commenced
changing his clothes. The servant girl,
heard some words , pass between Mr. K.
and his wife, when the latter rushed from
the room, pursued by her husband, who
was evidently bent upon inflicting person
al violence upon her. The girl a la rmed,
httrried out of the house, and cried for
assistance. Meanwhile Kingsland bad
caught his wife, knocked her down, and
was stamping upon her head with his
1 feet, when her mother, an aged woman,
entered the room and pushed him off the
prostrate body. He endeavored to re
commence his brutal work, but the moth
er successfully resisted his efforts and he
left, the house.
From his house be went to Win. Soy.
ders o a distance of two miles, where his
son, a young man, was at work, and after
a few words, pulled out a revolver, firing
twice at him, happily without effect.
Lapland was immediately arrested,
takes toitthens,and after an examination,
committed ,to the jail of the county to
await his trial.
Mrs. Kingsland was terribly bruised
about the head, and lingered insensible
oath-Monday morning, when death put
an end toiler sufferings. A post mortem
examination disclosed the fact that her
skull was crushed in several places. She
was aged about 48 years, and leaves three
children to mourn her loss, aggravated
by the unfortunate manner of her death.
Kingsland is, a respectable farmer, in
comfortable circumstances, and but for
occasional paroxisms of passion, a tem
perate 'and well disposed man. Some dif
ficulty which had occurred in the family,
seems to have aroused nil his evil pas
dons, and in a moment of ungovernable
fury had led him to the commission of a
crime too shocking to contemplate, and
which plunges a large circle of ielatives

The National Publishing of 507
Minor Street, Philadelphia, have favored
us with some of the advance sheets of a
forthcoming work ‘entitled "Alexander
H. Stephens, in Public and Private, with
Lettere, Speeches, &c.," by Henry Cleve
land, Esq., (formerly editor of the Angus
-4,14. Ga. Constitutionaliet,)- Judging from
the sheets before -us, the book; a large
volume of 900 pages, promises to be high
ly interesting both in personal incident
and political history. Mr. Stephens wimp
14ed a prominent and influential position
in the political world before Clity, Web
, ater and Calhoun—those masters in ora
tory and giants in intellect—pulled from
the scenes of their triumphs. In elo
quence and ability he ranked high even in
the noonday splendor of that intellectual
triumvirate. Durinit the terrible war cri
sis through which the country lately
passed, the views of Mr. Stephens were
well known, both at the North and the
South, but amidst the reign of passion 1
they received less consideration from the
people of both sections than they descry
ed. file whole efforts were patriotically
devoted to securing a reconciliation be
tween the estranged sections. He fpught
against secession in the midst of it—ribk
ing life and fortune in the encounter ; and
he stood up for the conquered against the
bigoted agrarianism of radical dignia
gogues. While radicals prevail and ex
tremists dominate, the labors and servi
ces of Mr. Stephens will not be thorough
ly appreciated, but after the vindictive
fires of sectionalism shall have died out,
and when the Union shall be restored and
harmony prevails among the people, he
will receive the encomiums which his ex
alted peace-making efforts deserve.
The author of this work has bad free
and unrestricted access to all of Mr. Ste
phens' literary treasures, the accumula
tion of 30 years, and having long enjoyed
l an intimate acquaintance with the great
statesman, is well qualified to perform his
task. We have no hesitation in recom
mending our readers, of all classes and
parties, to secure a copy for careful pe
rusal by themselves and their children.—
The private virtues of Mr. Stephens furn
ish a model which the youth of America
might do well to imitate. Like many oth
er great American statesmen, he is a self
made man—having worked himself up
from orphaned poverty to a comfortable
competence and a mast enviable promin
ence in bistOry.
The work will be sold only by Pubs orip
tion. An agent is desirrd in every coun
ty. Address the "National Publishing

Radical Proscription.
Senators Cowan, Doolittle and Dixon,
because of their conservatism and sup-
port of the President's, policy, have been
deprived of their chairmanships and plac
ed at the foot of their respective Standing
Committees. This act shows the petty
malignance of the Radical leaders. How
ever it should serve as a valuable hint to
the President and the heads of Depart
ments, who should at once oust every
disunion radical now holding o ffi ce. The
causeless proscription of those Senators
will be ample justification aide from all
other considerations, for dispensing with
the services of every officeholder who
does not give the Unioa policy hearty and
undivided support. Radical howls about
proscption for opinion . sake should cow
stop. _

whom perished. A few 'of the unfortun
ates have been brought out alive, but bad
ly mutilated. The excitement among the
families in the, town i 4 intense and pain-
Sal, and the worfcs antV,vicinity have been
a scene, of :wailing-and. despair. A sitzti-
lar accident occurred ‘ome 20 wears ago,
in the same' itt,'by which 73 hies were'
lost.
Dec. 13.—Anot her explosion took place
in the same mine at 9 o'clock this morn

and bringing out the dead. Eighty of
the `dead bodies had been brought out
when the second explosion took place.—
Several officials and a number of volun

A Zasonie Lodge Robbed.
The jewels belonging to St. John's
Lodge, at Newark, N. J., were stolen
last week. These jewels have a historic
value. They were used by Gen. John L.
Cuituniage, who was Master of the Lodge
before the Revolution. They were also
loaned during the war to the Army Lodge
at Morristown, •vresided over by Wash
ington; end were used on the initiation of
Lafayette.
The -lineally oTpnper used every year
in England represents a weight of about
two hundred and twenty millions of
pounds. France uses one hundred and
ninety-five millions of pounds; while the
United-States of America with a much
smaller population, consumes more paper
than England and France put together,
viz.:four hundred and forty millions of
pounds.
