THE TWO 3IEX.
The York Trite Democrat, in discuss
ing the merits of the candidates now bo
fore the psople of this State for tho office
of Governor, draws a parallel between
Geary and Clymer. From tbe time that
rebel cas;:on, says the Ihmwrnt, fire'l
upon our flag at Fort Sumpter, until the
la:.t rebel perched iu the "last ditch" o
the del'uuct Confederacy, both of these;
uiea were filling important pcs-'uiuns in
the public sen ice. General Ceary, witL
his two sons, was at the front, risking his
life to defend the honor of the "ag. Mr.
Clymer was iu the Senate Charaber, and
by voice aud Vota was aiding ths euemics.
of his country more effectually than he
cutili have done had he doantd the rebel
uniform and taken his place in the rebel
ranks. He voted and acted with that
p-rty thet said the Sou,h was guilty of
uo crime iu attempting to destroy the
Govcrnmrnt; that the power of slavery
was a constitutional prerogative, possess
ed by every Stat-j ; that Mr. Lincoln was
a tj ranttic.il usurper, seeking to subve;J
the Constitution, and destroy liberty : th?

its power to prevent filling up the iirmies
in the fi. Id, by eucturag.ng desertion and
resistance to the drait ; aed then, wheu
the end was in full v"i2w, had too brazen
effrontery to Cill the war a "failure."
The war was either jijrbr at ronr. It
was a IJoh or boiy struggle for rights of
man, or it was the mist stupendous and
terrible crime that ever ccnvifsed sociefj.
The Government i.f the United States
either performed the most glorious and
praiseworthy act recorded iu history, or
it was guilty of the most heuious and at
rocious wron that was ever done. If
the South was ever justified iu her course,
aud the war zn oar part was unjust, then
Mr. Clymer is a patriot, the lustre of
whose loyalty is as the noondjy sun. Rut
f the Southern people had neither cau8
uor fcic-usa tor what they atttf-pted to do,
tben Mr. Clymer ami i,is associates will
go down in history, covered with a deeper
and blacker infamy than that which af-

, cause of the Government was just, ami
the struggle a holy one, then the na;ne
aud fame of Geueral Geary will be im
mortal. His co-irage, daring and gallant
ry upon the many b!oody fields of the
war for the Uuion, are written with a
diamond peu upon the pages of history.
Shall this gallant soldier be honored for
the glorious deeds he has doco ii: honor

We have received a note from a "nn.
tleman iu Texas cientioniis; a report that
the daughter of a member of the late
Cabinet of Mr. Davis had married a ne
gro formerly a slave ! We take it for
granted that this is an utterly unfounded
rumor although the correspondent was
fully pursuaded of its truth, we are sure,
from the tenor of his letter: I'tknluty
Luhx.
Afur all, there is bothing so very ex
traordinary about the fact stated by tho
Index, however uunatuial such connec
tion may appear. Rut whatever is law
ful iu a mau is this respect, is lawful for
a woman ; and it is well kuowu fact
that a certain Democratic Vice Presi
dent of the United States, years ago, in
dulged himself iu the luxury of a bl-iek
woman for a y.i.'j, Aud iuav of our
citizeus reil remembered when "a certain
Mr. Smith, from eat of the Rluc Ridg,
a Democratic Congressman from thisj
State, used to visit Rawley SJ.icg3, ia
