Fraud is suspected at the governing - tit

the prepared paper is mauufactured on
which the bank currency is 'doted. The
works are said to be in charge of a de-.

of stock with a view to detect any mis
appropriation.
The motives of Grant and Sheridan in
urging an increase of the regular army
stand confessed in the New Orleans coup
d' 'they will need a vast standing
army in a nation of freemen to enable
them to overthrow the legislatures of the
states at the point of the bayonet. In a
nation of slaves the present military force
will be sufficient.
"All of us - is giadually simmering

war or in polities.
Fearful that a glimpse of wholesome
truth would break the torte of President

Every Rin_ organ in Pennsylvania is
in favor of military rule. The leaders of
the Ring clamor for it. This is perfect
ly natural. Their own future salvation
from the doom of felons depends upon
the ortrthrow of civil gorernment.—
Tirere is net a public thief, a robber of
the public treasury in all the laud,' but
is .thivions for a renewal of civil war.—
Their only hope is borne upon the point
of the bayonet. The only hope ,of the
people is to the peaceful triumph of the
Constitution and civil government.
Governor Tilden, of New York in de
clining to reprieve two murderers who
were executed at Jamaica, Long Island
last week, also took occasion to warn the
sheriff that the execution must be con
) ducted pr.vately, as the law demanded
and with only such witnesses as were en'•

t press could be deprived of the opportnn

the exclusion of reporters from the- list
of persons privileged to see handing

I he President's special message to con
gress, instead of being an auswei tothe
residution of inquiry of the Senate, as to
the justification for the military interfer
ence in L ui6inna is an elaborate ar
raignment of tie people of that state
for . tiietr political independence. and the
ej.i:tt with which they have insisted upon
the rizlit of self government. He goes

As to the outrage'f the 4th of January
the President ussefts he had no knowl

for the action of Kellogg and Sheridan,
and at the same time he seeks to palliate
crimes. As a special plea the mes
s.iLe is wea. If any importance what
ever attaches to it, except as an: impeaah•
meat- of his own conduct, it will be in
the documents accompanying, which allay
serve to fix a responsibility the President
seeks to throw upon the shoulders of his
subordinates.

The "eve of election" in # Radical po

itor's conscience must in the above , state=
uncut. We had no idea of cluirging
dishonesty in the transuction t alluded to
but when such a "dark-lantern" is used
to hide away with,we meat say we have sus
picion. • We do not pretend to know
what Homer f'believes"but we know what
the facts are, and thiiabove dodga,throwe
a cloud about the editor's honesty. Were the
people in fault if the Radical convention
did attempt to elect Mr. Ellis (their nom
inee for Auditor) to two offices,and found
- out, a week before election, that it could
not be; done ? Dare Homer Frazier,
squarely deny that Mr. Prichard did not
utterly refuse to be a candidate the mo—
ment be was notified, and did he not go
to the Republican office and demand that
his name be taken from the ticket ?-
-Alias there not as much time to change
the ticket afterward as there was when
Homer made his bull and left the name
of Mr. Washburn off the ticket, which
.was afterward rectified, or a Democratic
commissioner would have been declared
elected the same as Mr. Beebe was elected
'County Suiveyor ? Were the people any
more in fault for the bulls of the Ring
managers in the Auditor business, than
they were in the Commissioner or County
Surveyor business ? Did nut Mr. Prich
ard serve all day on the election board
in Springville ? And lastly is not Mr.
Bell, the Democratic candidate for Aud
itor, elected to that office by the people.
Was not the printing i and distributing
of a ticket with a name upon it that was
not that of a candidate, a fraud upon the
voters ? With this 'sliding" scale for
a precedent in the future, it 'will be a
nice machinery for Rings and Cliques.
With what characteristic tenacity the
office holding subsidized press,of the Rad
ical pursuasion, stick to the defence of
the dispenser of their official blessings,
and now when the whole country, irre
spective of party,is startled at an attempt
to subordinate the civil power of "the
best government the sun ever shone up
on" to the dictatorship of military
satraps, instead of meeting the question
like men and denouncing the wrong for
the safety of Republican government,
they sneak behind the curtain of the past
in an attempt to draw the attention of
the people from their danger, until they
shall be irretrievably lost in the sweeping
current of corruption and despotism.—
They dare not boldly defend their leaders
before the just indignation of an out
raged notion, hut they perform the office
of the cowardly cow-boys in the interest
of the enemy. The Montrose Republican,
which never leads in anything, mirrors
the actin i ps of the same drivelling official
rabble. Some of them are so pt (?)
they say they canna join the denuncia
tion of the President because the Dem
ocatic party take the lead in rebuking
him. They remind us very torcibly of
an Ancient dignitary, who would rather
reign in hell than serve in Heaven. Party
power and pelf with monarchy looming
up in the near future, is preferable to
them at the cost of every principle of
Republican government.
It is the political cormorants who are
robbing and debauching the nation and
who pay toll at their mill that they de
sire preserved in power instead of Repub
lican inatitution& If they can only suc
ceed a little louger in hoixlwinking the
people into the belief that tGrant saved
the country" until the coils of despotism
are drawn a little tighter, then indeed
they will proclaim that he not only
saved the country but that it is his and
he will dictate upon what terms the peo
ple may enjoy "Life, Liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness." Let the people
drink in this political cowbane but a
little longer, with which these designing
plotters are feeding them, and the full
realization of the above picture will be
the result. Vote for party and power
instead of principles and an honest ad
ministration of Republican government
and another cycle of the Grant dynasty
will open your eyes to the truth of what
we say. We wish to remind you that
.yotwrill be forced to enjoy (?) these bles
sings the same as Democrats, and also in
company with them. Will this be a
sufficient sfitisfaction ?

• sergeant-in-Arms.,/ -
The following from the Bnalford A ,
gus meets our views so completelf,respeti!
ing the actions of our members at the
State Capital and their drams, that we
copy it with our full endorsement :
"We should prefer to say.nothing about
the election of Sergeant-at-arms, if it
were not that we were under pledge to
denounce wrong 4ind strike at corruption
whether it exis•ii in our own ranks or
that of the party that has already been
consigned to the shades of r.tirement for
its multitude of short-comings.
The occupant of this position is under
three or four indictments for embezzle
ment and malfeasance in office ; and un
til the skies are cleared of the imputa
tion of such charges, the party that
starts out to supersede corruptionists,and
inaugurate reforms in official action. can
ill afford to have so great a mill-stone as
this man Beamish hung around their
necks at the beginning of the engage
ment.
The professions of men occupying so
important a position before the civilized
world to-day, as the democratic and con
servative leaders of this onward' move
ment of popular redemption from organ
ized centralization and a military dicta
torship, must ander no circumstances,
counterance the acts of persons of such
characterless repeaters as Sam Josephs,
Bill McMullin, or Frank Bemish.
If association with, and recognition of
such scum is necessary to success, better
then we suffer defeat a while longer, than
be handicapped with the ruffians and
camp-followers of Bill Mann, and the
bribery manipulators of Simon Cameron
and Bob Mackey.
The democrats in the House of Repro
sentatives owe to their own integrity, sad
the honor of their constituents, a thor•
ougb investigation of the charges alleged
against their sergeant-at-arms ; and to
take such measures as will get rid of Sam
Josephs. (and his cut—throats) either by
legal consignment to an institution whidh
he may—like his namesake of old—wear
a snit of many colors, and stripes, or be
turned over to the tender mercies of one
of the Ftraus.
Philadelphia has given evidence of t
commencement of a reformation in her
municipal departments, and now it be
hooves the party at Harrisburg to follow
up the lead by stamping out, and utterly
repudiating the shysters and roosters that
have so long disgraced the legislation at
the capitol ot the State,and finally proved
itself to be the feather that broke the
back of the Republican oligarchy."
George Washington took occasion to
treat the subject of government interfer
ence in affairs over which it has no con
stitutional control. As a curious dis
quisitition from a person who was tot in
favor of a third term, it will attract at
tention. He said :
"The legitimate authority of the gen
eral government is abundantly suffickut
for all the purposes for which it was
created ; and, its powers being expressly
enumerated, there can be no justification
for claiming anything beyond them.—
Every attempt to exercise power beyond
these limits should be promptly and firm
ly opposed. One evil example will lead
to others still more miechevious, and if
tLe principle of constructive powers, or
supposed advantages, or temporary cir
cumstances shall ever he permitted to
justify the assumption of power not given
by the comstitntion, the general govern—
ment will before long absorb all the
powers of legislation, and you will have
in effect bntone consoli4ted government.
Every friend of our free institutions
should be always prepared to maintain,
unimpaired and in full• vigor,`the rights
and sovereignty of the states, and to con
fine the action of the general government
strictly to the sphere of its appropriate
duties."
State Legislature.
The following Preamble and Resolutions
were passed In the House of Representa
tives Tuesday, Jan. 12th, by a vote of 102
yeas and 85 nays, a strict party vote, the
Democrats for and Republicans against.
A filibustering milk-and-water minority
report was introduced by the Republcans
as an "artful dodger" to take them off the
"ragged edge" if possible but it failed of
the mark. The following,we think,speaks
the sentiments of the people at large.
Whereas, Under the constitution of
the United States the use of the federal
army in the suppression of domestic vio
lence can be in yoked only on application
of the legislature or the executive (when
the legislature cannot be convened;)
and
Whereas, On the first Monday of Jan.
nary, the day prescribed by the constitu.
tion of Louisiana for the malting of the
general assembly of that commonwealth
at the time when the legislature was
convened and in process of organization,
a portion of the federal army, under the
authority of the President of the United
States, placed at the disposal of the so
calico governor of Louisiana, forcibly
ejected from their seats persons claiming
to be lawfully elected members of the
legislature; and
Whereas, This act of usareatiou and
lawless power has received the sanction
and approval of President Grant; and
Whereas, It is the constitutional right
and prerogative of the legislature of a
free state to judge of the palifieations
of its own members; therefore be it
Resolved. That the house. of represen
tatives of Pennsylvania, speaking for her
peopledo solemnly protest against so nein
ons an abuse of the power committed • to
the President. We protest against it as
a precedent which substitutes the will
of the executive and the federal bayonet
for the functions of the legislature in
determining the qualification of its mem
bers, endangering. personal liberty and
imperiling Tree government.
Resolved , That we commend the for
bearance exercised by those whose rights
were so unconstitutionally violated—we
assure them of the sympathy felt for
them by all those who are jealous of the
`preservatiell'otthe _principles of civil
liberty- - upon which our government is
founded.
Risotved, That copies of the foregoing
be forwarded by.the speaker of this onse
to the President of the United States and
the Senators and representatives in
congress from this state and to• the gov
ernors of the several states.

The Protest of the People.'.
The great meeting held in the city of
New York to denounce ~the-I.,,ciiiisiatia
outrage filled the Cooper Insfilny en 4 alt
the avenues leading to it. There was `nu
.building in the city that could hold the
people who desired to be present. The
demonstration was strictly non-par-
tisan. It was presided over by Mayor
Wickham luit;,ad{lrekiied.,4 W!! Cul:.

Thayer, George Ticknor Curtis, William
R. Dodge and others, and numbered
among its otr,i t c•ers }he -most dis
tingriished persOni -in tie conutly. We
have only room for the resolutions,which
were as follows:
WUMEAL?, It is a fundamental prinei•
pal of parliamentary law, underlying all
free representative loam:ions and which
our national and state constitutions em
body and
.enforce, that, .a sovereign Legis
lature is the sole judge of the outditica•
Lions of its members, And that even judi
cial interference is not tolerated with that
light and all important privileges; and
Whereas., There it nothing in the laws
of the United States, nor in the consti
tution and laws of the state of Louisiana
which accepts the legislative body of that
state from the operation of this ancient,
neutral and undoubted principle of .y,,ov.
eminent ; and
heseas, Caution and foresight in the
exercise of federal interference with the
concerns of the states lately in rebellion
are made doubly desirable at this ino.
merit by the fact that nearly half the vo
ters of that region are persons only now
receiving their first lessons in:politics,and
who as yet possess no familiarity with the
dangers to which constitutional govern
ment is expose 4 with the means by which
past generations created it, and who, as a
matter of fact, look on the federal admin
istration as their best friend and most
trustworthy political instructor ;
.there
fore
Resolved That in the opinion of this
meeting, any use of the federal authority
which teaches these newly made voters to
believe that political problems can be
solved by arbitrary processes or displays
of physical force better or more readily
than by labor, patience and conciliation
is an offence against the natioual safety
and welfare which . calls for the severest
condemnation.
Whereas all intimidation of tile legis
lature and especislly that form of inti
midation which consists in military,ln
terference with its organization or de•
bates, or in the display of military force
in or about the place of meeting, is cure
eventually to convert representation into
a farce, by making the legislature in a
greater or less, degree the creature or ser•
veer, of the (Tx. ecutive ; therefore
Resolved, Yhat we cannot too warmly
express our disapprobation of , the part
which the military forces of the Uaited
States have' been allowed more than once
to play in the organization of the legisla
mie of the state of Louisiana.
Wl:manes, On the first of these occa•
sioos, in 1872, the federal troops took
possession of the state house in New Or
leans and permitted no person to enter
the legislative chambers except those
pointed out to the sentinels,by the United
States marshal, the occurrence wus,,right
ly consiuered by the' whole country a
scandal and disorder of the gravrat.kind ;
but nevertheless as it took place under
cover of an order of a United States
court it was felt by many that the officials
engaged in it might honestly plead ignor
ance of the enormity of the transaction,
in spite of the fact that the order in ques
tion was on its face, to use the language
of the committee of the United States
senate which examined it, "most repre
hensible, erroneous in point of law and
wholly void for want of jurisdiction;
And whereas This occurrence and the
discussion it called forth can not have
left the administration or its officers in
the dark as to the serious nature of the
objections to the military interference of
the federal authorities with the machinery
of the state governments; therefore
Resolved, That we have heard with ear
prise and alarm that the state house of
Louisiana was taken possession of and
garrisoned by a federal brigade prior to
the meeting of the legislature on the 4th
of January last, that the members had
to make tnejr way, under examination, to
their places through lines of armed senti
nels, and then
. proceed to the discharge
of their duties inside under the eye of a
military commander not subject to their
authority and holding the very building
in which they sat as a fortified post; tliat
when disputes subsequently arose between
the two parties into which the legislature
divided over the organization of the tluse,
[ of represeb tattires, this "officer 'thuk Upon"
himself to answer the 'appeal of one side
[ and assure the duties of the sergeant at
arms and of the police by repressing a
[ disturbance within the building; and
that when subsequently a minority of the
house, being dissatisfied with the vote or
[with the qualifie-ations of some of those
who participated in it, refused to seek the
[ settlement of the controversy by the or
' dinary and long established methods of
parlimentary law, but appealed to the
governor of the state to interfere with the
proceedings, the troops of the United
States, at the governor's unlawful request
or command, entered the legislative hall,
and then and there settled by force the
purely parlimentary question of the quali
fication of several persons present for
seats in the house by expelling them vio
lently from the building.
Whereas, No occurrence of this kind
has been recorded in the bistorrof free
government without being stigmatized,
an act of revolutionary violence, and'
though, owing to the peculiary condition
of the southern states and tb thb multi
plicity of our state legislatures, it may
seem an event of less moment in Louisi
ana in our day than it has seemed in oth
er places and at other times, it assumes .
a character of the 'utmost gravity when
we remember that if it be permissible in
Louisiana, whether it shall take place or
not in New York or Massachusetts be
comes a qciestion, not of legal right, but
of executive discretion ; therefore
Resolved, That for this reason, above
all, we emphatically protest against it and
declare our solemn conviction that it were
r better that legislative bodies should be
forbidden to meet tit all than to be for
bidden to meet under their, own rules
and surrounded by their own officers, be
cause nothing is more 4ngerous or de.
moralized than' arbitraey , rule veiled by
constitutional-forms; and' that theoiti

of party, here assembled appeal to their
fellow citizens of the whole cotintri, to'

Whereas, The 'recent dispatch 'of the
lientenaut general of the army, addressed
to the' secretary of war,: suggesting "that
congress should pdes 'an• act, or that the
President should issue Apiochimation,in

President Grant's Special Message
Washington, .January 13—The Presi
dent sent a special message to the senate
to-day, which after a dry recital of the
I coddition of affairs in Louisiana since
1866, which was irrelevant to the call for
nfortnation, proceeds as follows
Respecting the alleged interference .by
the military with the organization of the
legislation of Louisiana on the 4th inst.,
I have no knowledge or information
which has not been received by me since
that time and published. My first infor
mation was from the papers of the morn
ing of the sth of January. I did not
know that any such thing was anticipa
ted, and no orders nor suggestions were
ever given to any military officer in that
state upon that subject prior to ,the oc
currence. I am well aware that any
military interferenc by the officers or
troops of the 'United States with the or
ganization of a state legislature, or any
of its proceedings, or with any of its de•
partmenta of government is repugnant
to our ideas of government. I can con
ceive of no ruse, not involving rebellion
or insurrection, where such interference
by the authority of the general govern—
ment oUght to be permitted or can be
justified. But there are cicumstances
connected with the late legislative :mbro.
lio in Louisiana which seem to exempt
the military from any intentional wrong
in that matter. Knowing that they had
been placed in Louisiana to prevent do-
mest:c violence and aid in the enforce
ment of state laws, the officers and troops
of the United States may well have sup
posed that it was their duty to act when
called upon by the governor for that pur
pose. Each branch of a legislative as—
sembly is the judge of the election and
qualifications of its own members. But
if a mob or a body of unauthorized per
sons seize and hold the legislative hall
in a turriultnous and riotous manner,
and so prevent any organization by those
legally rettiined as elected, it might be
come the duty of. the state executive to
interpose, if requested by a majority of
the members elect, to suppress the dis
turbance and enable the persons elected
to organize the house Any exercise of
this power'wuuld only be justifiable under
most extraordinary circumstances, and it
would then be the duty of the, governor
to call upon the constabulary, or if neces
sari, the military force of the state.—
But,with reference to Louisiana it is to be
borne in mind that any attempt by the
governor to use the police force of the
state at this time would have undoubted•
1y precipitated a bloody conflict with the
White league, as it did on the 14th of
September. There is no doubt but that
the presence of the United States troops
upon that Occasion prevented bloodshed
and the loss of life. Both parties appear
to have relied on them as conservators of
the public peace. The first call was made
by the democrats, to remove persons ob
noxious to them from the legislative hall,
and the second was from the republicans
to remove persons who had usurped seats
in the legislature without legal certificates
authorizing them to seats, and in suffic
ient number to change the majority. No
body was disturbed by the military who
had a legal righ at that time to occupy a
seat in the legislature. That the demo
cratic minonty of the house undertook to
seize its organization by fraud and vio
lence, and that in this attempt they tram
.pled under foot the law ; that they acted
under, a preconcerted plan, and under
false•pretense introduced in the hail a
body of men to support their pretensions
by force, if necessary, and that conflict,
disorder and riotous demonstrations fol
lowed, are facts that. seem to be well es
tablished, and I am credibly informed
that these violent proceedings were a part
of a premeditated plan to have the house
orgatitzNl in this way, recognize what has
been called the 51*Enery senate, then to
dispose of Governor Kellogg, and so rev
olutionize the state government.
Whether it was wrong for the govern.
or, at, the request of the majority of the
members returned as elected to the house
to use such means as were in his power to
defeat these lawless and revolut•onary
preceedinge, is perhaps a debatable gum
lion, but it is not quite certain that there
would have been no trouble if those who
now complain of illegal interference had
allowed the house to be ornized in a
lawful and regular manner.. When those
litho inaugurate disorder and anarchy dis
avow such proceedings, it will be time
enough, to condemn those who, by such
means as they have; prevent the success
of their lalless and desparate schemes.
Lieut. General Sheridan was Tequested
by me to go to Louisiana to observe and
report the • situation there, and if in his
opinion it, was necessary, to assume the
command, which he did on the 4th inst.
after the legislative disturbance hstl cc
cured,".at 9 o'clock p. in., a number of
hours after the disturbance. No party
motives or prejudices can reasonably be
imputed to him, but, honestly convinced
by what he had seen and heard there, he
has characterized the ideas of the white
league in severe terms, and, suggested
summary modes of procedeure against
them, which, although they cannot be
adopted would,if legs!, soon put an end
to the disorders in that state. Gen.
gberidan was looking at the facts, and
possibly tint • thinking of the proceeding
which would be the only proper ones to
persue, though" more of ,the utterly law-- ;
less condition of society surrounding him
at the time of his dispatch and of what
would prove a sore remedy. Ile never
professed to do,au illegal act nor express
ed a determination to proceed beyond
what the law iii the future might author.
ize for the, punishment of the atrocities
Which. might have !mei committed, and
the commission of which . cannot be suc
cessfully denied. " It is a
.deplorablefuet
that political crimes and, murders . have
been committed in Louisiana mhion have.
gone unpunished, and which have been
juititied or apologized for, which .mac
i
rest as a reproaoh upon _ the state and
country long' after this generation has
passed away.
have no desire to have United States
troops,int?rfere in the dumestie concerns
of Louisiana °rimy other strati. On the
9th of December last, GOV. Kellogg tele
graphed to me his oppreh.-usions that the
white league intended to make another
attack upon the stav 110 Use, to which, on
the same day, I made the following an—
swer, since wiliet no communication has
been sent to him :
Your uispatOo date just re
ceived. I: is exe, edingly impolitic to use
troops in anticipation of danger. Let
the state authorities be right then pro
(wed with their duties without apprehen
sion of danger. If they are then molest
ed, the question will be determined
whether the Ifnited- Stfilles is able to
mantain law and order without its limits
or not."
I have deplored the necessity which
seems to make it my duty natter tae ctin
stitation and laws to direct such inter
ference. I have always refused, except
where it seemed to be my imperative duty
to act in such a manner under the con—
stitution and laws of the United States.
I have repeatedly and ear t
earnestly an _rea_-
ed the people of the south to live together
in peace and obey the laws, and nothing
would give me greater pleasure than to
see reconciliation and tranquility every
where pr. veil, and thereby remove all
necessity of troops among them. I regret
however, to ray that this state of things
does not exist.
- Nor does its existence seem to be de•
sired iii some localities, and as to those it
may seem proper for the to say that to
the extent that congress has conferred
power upon me -to prevent it, neither
ku klux klans, white leagues nor acy
other association using arms and violence
to execute their unlawful purposes can be
permitted in that way to govern any part
of this country. Nor can I see with in—
difference union men ur republicans
ostracised, persecuted and murdered on
account of their opinions as they now are
in some localities.
I have heretofore urged the case of
Louisiana upon the attentiou of congress,
and I cannot but think that its inaction
has produced great evil.
To summarize. In St ptember last an
armed organized oody of men in the
support of condidates w;to had been put
in nomination for the office of governor
and lieutenant governor at the November
elec.ion in 1872, and who had been de
clared not elected by the board of can
vassers, recognized by all the courts to
which the question had been submitted,
undertook to subvert and over;hrow the
state gaverrment that was recognized by
me in accordance with previous preced
ents. The reorganized government was
driven from the state house, and but for
his finding shelter in the United States
custom house, iu the capital of th • state
o f which he was governor, it is scarcely
to be doubted that hi- would have been
killed. From the state house, before
he had been driven to the custom house,
a call was made iu accordance with the
fourth section of the fourth article of the
constitution of the United States for the
aid of the general government to sup.
press domestic violence. Under three
circumstances, and in accordance with
my sworn duties, my proclamation of the
15th of September, 1874, was issued.—
This served to reinstate Governor Kellogg
to his position nominally. but it cannot
be claimed that the insurgents have to
this day surrendered to the state authori
tiett arms belonging to the state, or they
have in any sense disarmed, on the con
trary it is known that the same armed
organizations that existed on the 14th of
September, 1874, in opposition to the
recognized state government, still retain
their organization, equipments and com
manders, and can be called out at any
hour to resist the state government. Un
der these circumstances the same military
force has been continued in Louisiana as
was sent there under the first call,and
under the same general instructions. 1
repeat then that the task assumed by the
troops is not a pleasant one to them ;
that the army is not composed of lawyers
capable of judging at a moment's notice
of just how far they can go in the mainta
nance of law and order, and that it was
impossible to give specific instructions
providing for all possible contingency
that arose, or wait instructions which
could only reach them after the threat
ened wrongs had ben committed which
they were called on to prevent.. It should
be recollected, too. th(it upon my recog
nitio.t of the Kellogg government I re
ported the tact, with the grounds of rec—
ognition, to congress, and asked that
body to take action in the matter, other
wise I should regard their silence as an
aquiesence in my course. No action has
been taken by that body, and I have
maintained the position then marked
out. If error has been commited by the
army in these matters, it has always beew
on the side of the preservation of good
order, the niantenance of law and the
protection of life. Their bearing reflects
credit upon the soldiers. and if wrong
has resulted, the blame is with the turbu
lent elements surrounding them.
I now earnestly ask that such action
be taken by congress as to leave my du
ties perfectly clear iii dealing with the
affair of Louisiana, giving assurance, at
the same time, that whatever may be
done by that body in the premises will be
executed according to the spirit and let—
ter of law, without fear or favor. I here
with transmit copies of documents con
taining more specific information as to
the matter of the resolution.

EXECUTIVE ?Assam's, }
Jan. 13th, 1875.
The IlarrisburePatriot calls attention
to a grave error iu the Auditor-General's
report, which will require explanation.—
In the summary of receipts at the State
Treasury there is an item of $200,000
arising from the redemption of two
Pennsylvania railroad bonds of $lOO,OOO
each. In the statement of stocks held
by the commonwealth, upon page 167 of
the report it is shown that the 18th, 19th
and 20th bonds of the Pennsylvania rail-
road company were redeemed, making
$300,000, and reducing the bonds of this
company remaining in the sinking' fond
from $5,800,000 to $5,500,000. This
discrepancy involves a difference of *lOO,.
000 in the , treasury balance. As this
serious error has been adopted by the
Governor in his statement to the legisla
tore it becomes more important that it
should
,be corrected. The report is Mr•
thee disfigured' by -clerical . errors which
I are decidedly out of place in the necounts
, of the auditing officer of the State, and
which make all Ails statements untrust
worthy until verified. With the - advent
of more careful and competent , Manage
ment in this importeet office in.Bley next
we may look fora more , satisfactory 're.

TONIC, AIM ?UNMAKE Prus.—These deserv
edly celebrated and popular medicines have of
fected a revolution in the healing art, and prov
ed the fallacy of several maxims which have
for many years obstructed the progress of med
ical science. The false supposition that. Con
sumption is incurable deterred physicians from
attempting_to find remedies for that disettse,and
patients afflicted with it reconciled themselves
to death without making an effort to escape
froin a doom which they sup p osed to be una
.voldable. It b - now proved, however,, that
Consumption can be cured, and . that it has been
cured ia a very great number of cases (some of
them apparently desperate ones) by Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup alone ; and in other eases by
the same medicine in connection with Schenck s
Set Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, one or
both, according to the requirements of the ease.
Dr. Schenck himself, who enjoyed uninter
rupted good health for more than forty years,
was supposed, at one time to be at the very
gate of death, his physicians having pronoun
ced his ease hopeless, and abandonet: him to
his fate. He was cured by the atoressid medi
cines: and, since his recovery, many thousands
similarly affected have used Dr. Schenck's pre
parations with the same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, making it
not abs tritely necessary to personally see Dr.
Schenck unless patients wish their lungs exam
ined, and for this purpose he is professionally
at his principal office, Corner Sixth and Arch
Sta., Philadelphia, every Monday, where all let
ters for advice must be addressed. Scbenck'a
medicines are sold by all druggists.

ADVERTISING.
The DEuocaer as an advertising medi
um is indispensable to business men o
whatever class, and in many sections o
he County, the only medium through
which they can reach a large class who
need but the proper information to bestow
their valuable patronage. Local Aiver.
isera should take into coosidetation the
a circulation, outside of those who are in
the County or the vicinity where they
may expect patronage, is of no value to
them, if it was, the New York Herald or
some such paper would be the best me
dium. The cry of "large circulation" is
often used when it is of no advantage to
the advertiser. We do not make the as
sertion that our paper is the only medium
of value, but that it is the only one by
which the advertiser can reach a very
large number of families which it is for
hal advantage to reach. This is frankly
acknowledged by some, of the best busi
nessmen of the County, who knew from
experieuc6. We respectfulty request an
examination of our rates, as they are
reasonable.
JOBBING DEPA RTII ENT
The Jobbirig Department of the DEM
OCRAT is asi eclat'', We are constantly
adding New Material to our Jobbing De
partinent and intend to keep doing so.—
We have power wed jobbing presses of
the latest and improved style. One of the
best recommendations tor it is the con
stantly increasing patronage. Our pa
trons find that we can' compete with
Binghamton, Scranton, Ithaca, and even
New York city, in prices, and also in
quality of all kiads of work needed in this
locality. We do not propose to work for
nothing, but we have u schedule of prices
which we strictly adhere to, that invites
competition. Neatness, Chlpness, and
Promptness is our basis. We respectful.
ly invite the attention of the public and
their patronage if we deserve it.

The best way to compliment the DEM.
