FOR CONGRESS. Col. C. B. CURTIS, Erie County. The nest Sovenior of Pennsylvania Continued. In our issue of last week we compared to some extent the public life of the can didates for this highest office within the cift of the people of one of tho leading commonwealths of the Union, at a time when history was making as rapidly as at aoy tiwo, in any age or country in the life and being of nations. We this week continue tbe couipanison from sense of duty. The people should be put in posession of facts regarding men who come forward and ask for the high est places of honor profit or trust the people may have to give. Only those who have been tried, thorougly tried and have been found wanting in nothing should receive the honors the State may have to give. Jeff. Davis said to a Uni ted States Senator, of the great aud good Lincoln, "he is from the ranks, and Southern gentlemen will never consent to the presidency of a man from the ranks." History however proves that in times of emergency, all other things O 1 1 - just the roan for the nation, the man for the world. So Lincoln proved himself, and when the names of Jeff. Davis and his coad jutors, and Lis copperhead sympathisers in the North, shall have perished, or remembered ou!y with loathing the name of Lincoln will bo revered by the masses, the true and the good of all na tions. Gen. Hartranft, as we have said, comes from tho people, he is of the peo ple, aud with tho people in every thing that builds up, strengthens and develops all their powers and makes the State truly great. Gen. Hartranft has been faithful wherever tried, faithful over a few things it may be, and now the people will say "come up higher." Hartranft's record is with the noble and the brave patriots who saved the country from the Rebel Horde in the field, and their copperhead sympathisers firing in the rear from the north. Hart ranft's deeds of noble daring and patriot ism have erected for him a monument as enduring as history, and when the soldiers and sailors shall meet in conven tion next month at Pittsburg to talk their deeds of valor over to recount the privations and dangers of their soldier life, and remember with sadness tbe mighty men of valor who were their comrads in that fearfull conflict between treason and loyalty, liberty and slavery, but now rest from their labors in sold iers graves, Hartranft will be there and honored too by bis comrad braves as one of the noblest of their number. Bucka lew if remembered at all, it will be in connection with the Fishing Creek Rebel confederacy, his Nob mountain copper head campmeeting,' his consultations with Thompson, Saunders, Clay, and TI.I 1 L V! . n . , uoicoiuo at i nigra in iou4, wan cis voting against striking out the 8300 clause in the original drafting act, which favored the rich and ground the poor, or in other words enabled the rich to escape the perils of the military service, they owed their country for a trifling, and easily paid sum, while the laboring and poorer classes were held; with his on position to the 13th, 14th and 15th, amendments to the constitution of the United States. Tho fact is Charles R. Buckalew was and is a copperhead of the most poison ous kink, lie never drew a breath in sympathy with the government in its struggle against armed treason, and every vote of his recorded is against the government, and in fa70r of Rebels, during his seoatorical term. Chariet R. Buokalcw Dust and shall be defeated for1 governor. The Repub lican party owes the defeat of this man to our common humanity; to the hun dreds of thousands of bravo men who sacrificed life in defence of our common country; to the martyred, noble and pa triotic president Lincoln; to the widows and orphans of Pennsylvania's fallen pa triots; the Republican party owe the de feat of this Rebel sympathiser to the generations of men for all time to come. To elect Buckalew governor of Penn sylvania would bo to pay a bonus on Rebellion, almost if not quite equal in crime to the election of Jeff. Davis to like office. To elect Buckalew governor of Pennsylvania would be to drop from memory the thousands who to day fill premature graves, the victims of Rebel atrocity, in the prison pens of Ander sonville, Libby and other places of star vation. Let us then ns Republicans, make the defeat of Buckalew so signal as to make it historic. But more about this creature in the future. The President away from Washington. One of tho leading articles in politi cal trade with the New Yoik Trionnr the "no party organ" is the fact that the president leaves Washington occas ionally, and like other citizens of the free United States ' of America goes somewhere else for a litt e time. The Tribune and the lesser lights of the Lib Rep Dem persuasion would have the people believethat president Grant is the only president who has ever left the seat of Government during bis term of office. This however is not so, but is simply iuo of the many whole cloth lalsehoods for which the whole family of Lib Rep Dem organs is noted in this campaign. If truth telling were a fa tal desease there is not a Lib Rep Dem paper in the country that would die of the complaint. They have habituated themselves for so long a time, to utter ing the most unfounded and unmitigated I falsehoods, that if by chance a. bit of truth does escape them, it is the merest accident, not intentional on their part, and the next day, or week they go back and so correct it, or make it over, as to be sure to make it a lie. We'll see how president Grant's ab sence from the seat of Government really does compare with the absence of his predecesors. eu. Washington was inaugerated first president of the United States April 30th, 1789. During the remain ing ten moDths of that year he was ab sent from the capital six weeks. In 1790 he was absent nearly two months. In the year 1791 be was away from the seat of Government over four months. He was absent for more than three months in the year 1792. Another three and a half months in 1793. In 1894 he remained at Mt. Nernon from June 25th until near the end of July having left Philadelphia the seat of government previous to June 19th, for on that day he was in Baltimore on h.s way to Mt. Vernon. In October of the same year he was away from the capital two weeks on the business of crushing a Pennsylvania insurrection, thus mak- ing an aosence or nearly two months in the year 1794. In 1795 he was again away for more than three months. On the Idth day ot June 19G he went to Mt. Vernon and remained there nntil the 21st, day of August, making necessary for the Spanish Minister to go there from Philadelphia to present his credentials, and again on the 21st day of October he is at bis Mt. Vernon home. Thus during the eight years adminis tration of George Washinton he was ab sent from the seat of Government for more than twenty-one months. During the four years term of the Elder Adams be was absent from the seat of Govern ment about seventeen months or more than one third of the time. On the 4th of March 1801 Tbomas Jefferson became president of the United States and continued in that offioe. until March 4th 1809, during which, very much of his time was spent at bis old home at Monticello. In neither of these instances does history record a word of fault, They were at their posts during the Bess ions of congress, but took advantage of the recess to recuperate. In all reason has president Grant done more in this regard. He has been at the national capital and held a cabinet meeting near ly every week since his inauguration. Now how will Mr. Greeley compare with Gen. Grant in this regard J We'll see. In April 1867 he was elected delegate at large to the convention to amend the constitution of the State of New York. On the 4th of June 18G7 1. . T . 3 r t iuo vuuvcuuuu wet, uuu ureeiey ans wered to his name at roll call, and 'took the following oath of office. "I will faith fully discharge the duties of delegate at large to revise and amend tbe Constitu tion of the State of New York, accord ing to tho best of my ability." On tbe 2hh day of September 18G7, the convention took a recess, when some trifling thing occured that did not suit tho Fourierite Philosphor, and he left the convention heaping oaths and . im precations upon one of his fellow mem bers because ho differed from him or on some question then pending; he not only left the convention in a . profane rage, but he never returned again, but engaged in a course of lcotures about something he claimed to know, for com pensation in money, while the conven tion continued its work up to Feb. 1808. A pretty subject indeed is Horace Gree ley to prate about abseuco from the post of duty. m mm Pardon for Imprisoned Ku-Klax. It has been enormously telegraphed 'rom here that Col. Whitley, chief of tho secret service division, in his report to tho Attorney General concerning his visit to the imprisoned Ku-ktux in the Albany pcuitcntiary, recommended the pardon of eighteen and favorablo con sideration for a number of others. Tho fact is that pardons was recom mended in only three cases, bat a num. Vbcr of others were referred to as being repentant and their cases worthy of con" sidcration. Upon tho return of the President, Attorney General Williams will lay all tho facts before him, and it is believed that pardon will be granted to three of the prisoners. It is improba. ble that pardon will be granted to any of the others at the present time. It is proper to say that Colonel Whit" ley's entire report was not given out t0 the press, but certain statements are held back which are dumaging to the Democratic party, but if made use of would be met with a charge that the examination of the Ku-klux piisoners was solely for the purpose of getting political material to be ui-ed in the cam paign against Greeley.

There is no longer any doubt as to Which party will get the vote Ot the hi- boring man, ana tne tact that in many instances organs devoted exclusively to the labor reform movement suspending, shows that the organization is dissolving, and its members reluming to the old party of their love, the Republican. Whenever you see an intelligent labor ing mac, who votes on the principle ot improving his work and elevating his condition, you may ue certain he is a Republican. State Journal. " France.
