The Democratic Party.
The Democratic party, says an, ex
change, was organized in 1800, and came
into power in 1804. With brief intervals
it continued in power np to 1881.: Du
ring all this time no nation was more
prosperous than this; no people more
prosperous than this, no.people more hap
py; no government less burdensome.
Taxes were lighter th,ati any other' gov.
ernment in. the world; labor better re
quited, and political and religious liber
ty more universally enjoyed. There was
union between the States, and happiness
and prosperity among the people. When
bad men sought to destroy the Union
their first blow was at the Democratic
party. They only hoped to accomplish
this through the defeat- and destruction
of that party. By dividing ;t its counsels
they secured its defeat. That seven years
ago, and what have'we to day. A. bro
ken Union; ten of the States under a mil
itary despotism ; political and, religions
liberty a by word; the burdens of govern
meet more crushing than those of any
other on . earth. Labor is remunerated
with depreciated promise to pay, and the
necessaries of life are at famine prices.
Crime has increased a hundred fold, and
vice is clad in purple and fine linen. The
clothes we wear, the food we eat, the col
fins which encompass the last' remains of
the dead, are all taxed to the last paint of
endurance —and what have we gained ?
Nothing—infinitely wore than nothing.
Is it not time the people thought of these
things ? Is it not time that the memory
of the glorious past awakened the people
to an ambition for a glorious future ?
' What the country was, the Democratic
party made it; what it is, is the work of
the enemies of that party. Is it not time
that the people began to reflect upon the
necessity of restoring that party to, pow
er, and with it restoring the country to
both national and individ nal prosperity ?
Lincoln on Negro Voting.
We desire to call the attention of the
Radicals to the following extract from a
speech Mr. Lincoln made in a debate with
Douglas at Charleston, Illinois, Sept. 18,
2858. Mr. Lincoln said :
" While I was in the hotel to-day, an
elderly gentleman called upon me , to,know
if I was really .in favor of produ
cing a. perfect equality between the
negroei , and the white people. I will
say then, that I am not, nor never have
been in favor of making voters or jurors
of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold
office, nor to intermarry with white peo
ple; and I will say in addition to this,that
there is a physical difference between the
black and white races, which I believe
will forever prohibit the two races from
living on terms of social and political
equality. And inasmuch as they cannot
so live, while they do remain together
there must be the position of superior and
inferior, and I, as much as any other man,
am in favor of having the superior posi
tion assigned to the white race."
We commend the above to the special
attention of the peculiar friemif of the
"late lamented," who are now advoca
ting negro equality. If Mr. Lincoln should
utter the above sentiment to-day, he
would be denounced as a " d—d cop
perhead" by the pious souls who'direot
the movements of the mongrel Abolition
party.
The Gettysburg Asylum for Invalid
Soldiers.
We copy from the Doyleston Democrat
the article hereunder in reference to this
new $5 trap. The paper is edited by the
well known W. H. H. Davis, late Col. of
the 104th P. V.:

D. Kelly, a radical from Philadel
phia has gono on a stumping tour to the;
South. His style of speeches, are the re
suit of one riot, as shown by the follow
ing which we copy from Forney's press—
a radical organ :
JUDGE KELLY IN MOBILE-4 DISTURBAIkiCE
PROVOKED.
Momme, May 14.
A large number of negroes met to night
at the corner of Goverdmenl, and royal
streets, to hear Judge 'Kelley, of Penn
sylvania. A number:of :whites were also
present, and everythieg was remarkably
quiet until Mr. Kelley began to speak.
He said helad come to discuss the rights
of the negroes, which they were entitled
to, and would bid defiahce to all inter
ruptions. He had fifteeti regiments at his
back, and if these proved inadequate, the
whole United States army would not.
He continued in thus; strain for some
minutes, when ho was interrupted by a
white man on the outskirts of the crowd,
whom the police arrested. The first shot
was fired at this point, is impossible to
say by whom. Instantly shots followed
from the negroes, who Were all well arm
ed, and the firing then tiecame general.
Immediately after' the firing commenc
ed an alarm was rung, :Ind continued du
ring the progress of, the riot, which las
ted about an hour. A large majority of
the shots were fired. by the negres, as but
vertfew of the whites present were arm:
ed, having attended tho meeting to list
en quietly to Kelley, and without the re
metest> idea of provoking a riot.
The police suceeded iy quieting the ri
ot before the arrival of =the companies of
the 15th regiment, who were ordered out
by Col. Shepperd, and appeared . on the
ground as soon as possible, but not until
the meeting had been dispersed. They
now guard the streets, and everything is
quiet. It is impossible ;to say positively
the number killed and wounded. Three
white men and two negroes are known
to be dead, and many wounded, amongst
them a policeman.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad.
The Lehigh Valley railroad company,
about a month hence, will open the moun
tain division of their line between the Le
high at Whitehaven and the Susquehan
na at Wilkesbarre, a distance of thirty
one miles. The two Lehigh companies
both cross the Nescopec watershed on
parallel routes, and so Continue to Solo
mon's gap, in the Willicsbarre or second
Mountain, whence they ,continue the de
scent in opposite directiOns on loop lines,
one (the Lehigh Valley).swimming away
to the west, coming out on the face of
the first mountain through Sugar Notch;
the other, (Lehigh "ant Susquehanna)
swooping away east and' disappearing be
tween the two mountains, till it reaches
the Laurel Run water gate, through which
it emerges into view from the valley be
low, and into which it winds down the
mountain side, elongation being essential
on both lines to obtain gradient easily
workable with locomotive power, The
elevation overcome in getting out of the
Wyoming valley is about 1,000 feet; and
to move thefcoal up this elevation with
economy, ea4la of the two Lehigh compa
nies has a system of three inclined planes
operated with stationery power.
From the loop or passenger line of the
Lehigh Valley railroad company, which
from Solomon's gap Ohnost to Sugar
Notch is on ground higher than the crest
of the first mountain hi
,front, there is an
unobscured soul inspiring panoramic view
of the classic tale of Wyoming, which is
destined to lasting fame, among the most
magnificent of landscapes visible from car
windows.
After the mountain link she'll have ex
tended the Lehigh Valley railroad to
Wilkes Barre, the Lehigh Valley railroad
company will have in operation an unbro
ken line 102 miles lonvreaching from its
disgorging terminus at Phillipsburg
(where the Central New Jersey, the Bel
videre, Delaware and the Morris and Es
sex railroads jointly receive its coal ton,
nage consigned to the New York and
eastern markets) to the coal mines of the
Wyoming-valley. In addition, the com
pany own and opperate 17 and a half miles
of road from Penn Haven to Andenried,
and also 40 miles of read between black
creek and • Mouni Carmel, making, 'alto
gether, 159 and a half miles of road; 68
miles are double track, and the length of
sidings is about 70 miles.
Beyond Wilkesbarre the Lehigh valley
railroad company is working at different
points, under a charter controlled by it
and whereby it will possess a canal and a
railroad in the North. Branch valley from
Wilkesbarre to New York State line, a
distance of 105 miles.
The North Branch valley—which long
no was a hobby with us—is the only riv
er route between Western New York and
Central Pennsylvania—between the Ches
apeake and Delaware bays and lakes On
tario and Erie. And from the Wyoming
coal field, by canal and by rail, tonnage
will be distributed throughout Western
New York, and delivered at the harbors
on ! the lakes,. in such quantities as will
make the North Branch enterprise a sat
isfactory investment, and enlarge the pow
er and the influence of the Lehigh valley
railroad conipany, among the great.carn
ers of the two great ; States.—Fernon's

Changes in the School Law.
The Harrisburg Daily Telegraph gives
the following synopsis of changes , made
in the school law, by our Legislature :
TnE SUPPLEMENT TQ THE COMMON SCHOOL'
Among the last work of the Legislature
was the passage of the supplement to the
common school law, wnich makes certain
changes in the manner of organizing,
supervising and conducting the common
schools of Pennsylvania. This supplement
has been signed by the Governor, and 'is
now in full force and effect. It provides
th.at, when school directors are unable to
procure from the owner or owners of land,
an eligible site for aschoolhouse,they may
enter upon and occupy such land, to the
etxent of one acre, and the damage re

The act legalize the issue of three grades
of teachers' certificates, the lowest called
" Provisional," to be good for one year
only; the second "Professional," which
shall license the bolder to teach in the

and one year thereafter, and the third or
highest grade is called a "Permanent
Certificate," which must be signed by the
State Superintendent. All prefessit nal

shall such person be eligible unless he had
successful experience in teaching within
three years of the time of his election:

How Soldiers are Cared For.
We find the following in the New
York World of Tuesday :
There was printed exclusively in the
World, , of Monday a list of names of vet
eran soldiers whom President Johnson
nominatedias postmasters during the last
session of the Thirty-ninth and the first
session of the Fortieth Congress, and each
one of whom was rejected by the Senate.
The number of these rejected nominations
is ninety-eight, not including the several
cases in which persons were rejected twice
or thrice. This list, be it remembered,
does not include all, the nominations, for
office of military men made by the
President and rejected by the Senate,
but only those for postmasteres made with
in a specified time. The testmouials in
their behalf (which are on file in the Post
office Department) present the whole
matter in a still stronger light than the
mere fact that the nominees were veteran
soldiers.

Republican sass Meeting and Riot.
NEW ORLEANS, May. 13.
There was a Rrpubliean mass meeting
on Saturday night, in Lafayette square.
Mayor Heath presided. The meeting
was addressed by Representative Kelly,
of Pennsylvania, and / Messrs. Hamilton
and Conway. Between four thousand
and five thousand persons were present,
five sixths of whom were negroes. The
various negro ward clubs marched to the
meeting in procsession, headed by music,
and carr) log numbers of banners and
transparencies. Considerable excitement
prevailed, the negroes as "they marched
along cheering and shoutinglustily. " No
disturbance occurred until about mid-
night, when the negroes stopped a car on
St. Charles street and cleared it of the
white occupants by shoving their clubs
through the windows. After taking pos
session of the cat' they compelled the dri
ver to go ahead.
The republicans are advccating the ap
pointment of negro pol:cetnen, and there
is talk of running Mr. Johnson, a promi
nent and extremely popular negro, for
Mayor.
Peace in Europa.
The effect of the London compromise
upon the Luxemburg question is shown
by the statement that Loth powers,. so
lately in hostile attitude, have made pre
parations to abandon further preparation
for dreadful war. France has. given or
ders to .disband the reserves recently
called out. Prussia discontinues the work
of strengthening the fortifications ofLux
emburg in which she has lately been en
gaged. M. I'doustier annountes to the
Corps Legisiatif that the peace of Eu
rope will not be disturbed ; and the
Crown Prince of Prussia is about to visit
Paris, in order to be present, at the Great
Exhibition. These statements all show
that the storm of war has blown over,
and that no disturbing cati , e is now an
ticipated which will interfere with the
harmony- of Europe.
Affairs in South America.
war still continues on the Paraguay
and its tribw.aries. The allies have made
no ad vane( s towards a settlement of the
difficulties between them and Paraguay,
and Lopez holds his position with a dog
ged stubbornness and determination char
acteristic of, the man. 11(4 will continue
the war so long as supplies can be ob
tained, and as a trade to' the•Pacifie has
been, opened through Chili and Mivia,
there is no difficulty on that score. 'There
are tribes!of Indians in both those States
in the pay of Lopez. They work as .car
riers and muleteers, apd bring from the
seaports all such articles as are needed in
the interior for warlike and oth4 purpos
es. In this manner the supply is kept up
equal to the demand, and Paraguay ren
de red independent so far as a passage
way to the Atlantic is concerned.
The Purchase from Russia.
Russia Ilas ratified the treaty with the
United' States for the sale of her posses-
sions in North America, and we may pre
sume that the bargain is complete, all but,
the payment of the money. The latter
ceremony is yet to be performed, and the
agreement that an order shall be drairn
for the amount will be among the Most
interesting items of business in the next
Congress, which, according to present
probabilities, will not assemble in July,
but will hold over.until December. _ Be
fore undertaking to complete this . treaty
—the most interesting part of the trans
action—the settlement of the considera
tion money, there ant some matters ofim
portance connected therewith to be pro
perly considered.
