RiR. CLYMER'.S ISiClVISM.
Mr. Clytuer filled a scat ia the Senate
nf tbis Commonwealth throughout the
whole period of the rebellion, lie was
chief of the Democratic leaders in that
body. He had advantages, personal and
acquired, which gave hiui special iuflucnce
o-er such of his colleagues as belonged to
his party. He was both their mentor aud
champion.
iVe do no injustieo to Mr. C!ymer in
asserting that from the beginning of the
war to the end of it his sympathies were
strongly enlisted on the side of the rebels.
Had he been under the immediate direc
tioa of Mr. Jefferson Pavis he would hive
pursued substantially the course he mark
ed out fur himself. Whatever obstacles

! fieietit aid to the national authorities in
the prosecution of the war he was sure to
' t 1 1 . ? -t J ,
brinjr forward. Not an important measure
was proposed for arming the S'ate, for
putting volunteers into the field, and fot
repelling actual invasion, that he did not
oppose. In soma instances, to be sure,
he did not resort to a bold and defiant
method. lie was fruitful of specious
amendments, intcuded to emasculate vig
orous measures, to retard action, and frus
trate desirable results. When he had
fought a bill iu this way, with parliamen
tary ambuscades and stratagems, and was
likely to fail, he would ofteu assign the
rejection of his modifications as the reason
for voting in the negative on the final pas
sage. Hut, in these case?, everybody now
sees and feels when reading the official re
cord that at bottom he was just as much
sg&rcst tfre national cause as the rebels
themselves ; and that, in the sphere in
which his lot was cast, he was laboring as
earnestly as they were to destroy the gov
ernment. Scarcely Yailandighan. himself
has a worse record.
Ought such a man to be elected Gov -
crnor of Pencsjlva&ia ? Is he a fit suc
cessor to Governor Curtiu, bo-e hands he
sought to tie, whose plans he endeavored
to thwart, all through those eventful years ?
It seems to us that the homes of Penn
sylvania's dead patriots, fallen in the great
contest, would shake in their honored
grave, at such a disgrace.
This is not a question of ordinary diver-
... r ,. . , - -
S,t,CS f H""! opinion
It is vain to
sPeak of ,hc excellence of Mr. Clymer's
personal deportment j of the amenity of
his manners ; of the compass of his intel
ligence ; of the breadth of his under
standing. All these considerations weigh
lighter than air against his undeniable in
civistn. Who doubts but many of the
rebel leaders possessed all the social vir
tues and graces in as high a degree as he
does ? Who doubts that some of them
surpassed .him in intellectual culture, in
force of reason, and in the charra of ora
tory 7 'ft -matters mot what accomplish

such a course as to justly rapk him with

lhis election is to. be held on the 2nd
Tuesday in May. There is one idea con
nected with this supplement which it be
hooves every voter to consider before he
determines to cast his vote against the
measure. Of the sixteen districts in the
county, nine, by their vote last fall, have
accepted the provisions of the original
law. Now, as to these nine districts,' the
pending vote can have no influence what

Simply because the supplement rontains !
no repealing clause. From begiuning to
cod of the supplement there is uot one
word to repeal or annul the provisions of
2ist section, of the act. And why was
this important feature of the supplement
omitted .by those especially interested in
it ? Was it because they knew that the
Legislature has no power to pass ar-post-
facto laws, or to enact lass impairing eon-
tracts ? And was not the Legislature
well aware that contracts had been enter
ed into under the provisions of the act of
1805? Voting therefore on next Tues
day "against" the Poor Houso will by no
means relieve you from the obligations
which you voluntarily incurred by voting
"for" it in last October. The only way
the accepting districts can now get rid of
what they fondly took to their boaomr.

On Tuesday next the tax payers of Ju
Dtata county will have an opportunity to
vote for or ogahwt a Poor House. At
the election last fall the question was
voted on iu some of the districts, but the
result proved unsatisfactory to many of
the tax-payers, and upon their petition the
(Legislature set aside the election and or
dered a new ono on next Tuesday. It is
the duty of every tax payer Jo go and vote
upon a question so vital to him, aud after
this second opportunity for a fair vote, we
trust ail will be satisfied with the result.
