and publishers, terminated on the 1st Inst
Having aold big interest in tbo concern to
Mr. E. IVilvert, be will continue as rmblisucr
of tbo paper. Tbo books and Accounts of
the late Hi in of Masser, Wilrert & Engle
are in the bands of Mr. Wilvcrt, who is
authorized to mako settlements of the same.
It is not without regret Uiat this step has
been taken on the partcT the undersigned.
During tbo throe years that lie has been con
nected with the paper his intercourse with
its patrons has been of tho most friendly
character, and he takes this opportunity of
thanking thorn for the rrnifiy farors received
at their hands, while acting as one of the
editors and in a business capacity. The
many acts of kindness shown him will ever
bo gratefully remembered.
N. S. EXGLE.
As the spirit of improvement is abroad,
and progress the watchword, some of our
cotemporarics and neighbors, with a com
mendable degree of enterprise, havo intro
duced new presses, ty-e and other materials
in their establishments, adding to tho gene
ral nppearanco and character of their Jour
nals. Tho American always having been a
progressive paper, and in position and char
acter, second to nono in this section of
country, it was hardly to be expected that
it would lag behind its contemporaries, in a
community rife with th spirit of improve
ment. In accordance with these views, the
American will nppcar, on or about tho 1st
t'f April, in an entire new dress, and in tone,
character and interest, will bs worthy of
itself, and tho patronage of a moral and in
iflligcnt people. Tho publisher also, at tho
same time, contemplates making extensive
improvements in the jobbing department of
the office, by the introduction of new type,
prcescs and other machinery. To accom
plish this, it will require a considerable sum
of money, and the publisher must, therefore,
in some measure, depend on tho numerous
unsettled accounts of the lato firm for funds
to accomplish his purpose, and trusts that
l.U friends and patrons will promptly aid
Lim in bis enterpriso by prompt remittance.
Mr. Englo having disposed of his interest
and rutired from the firm, the American
will, hereafter, bo conducted by tho under
signed, as publisher, who is authorized to
settle and collect whatever amounts may be
due Mr. Kuglc, in the late firm of Masser,
Wilvcrt & Eugle.

i'Kici:- KtntCF.ii. The subscription price
of the Asinwi AS will hereafter bo $1.50
per annum, if paid ia advance, or (2 at tho
end of the year. As it is contemplated soon
to make cxtcntivo improvements on the
paper as well as tho Jobbing department,
we earnestly rcquoat all who arc in arrears
to make immediate settlement, and conform
with our new rates. As we furuiah as much
reading matter as any of the larger sheets
in this vicinity. V,"c believe that no ono will
hesiutu to comply with our request, as it
w ill aid us in furnibhiug a still better paper
at lower rates than any other.
frn neighbors of the Guard, ia their
lust week's Uiue, have a leading article
discussing tho "Decline and Fall" of tho
Democratic party in this county. The Guard
says: "This paper (tho Vuard) has the
suMinie satisfaction of knowing, that it
Saved this county, from the disgrace of a
defeat. As it was, our opponents cut
uortu our majority so terribly that it ought
to bo a fearful lesson to the party for all
time to come." These remarks are evident
ly anything but complimentary to our neigh
bors of tho Democrat, who represent tho
other wing of tho party. Whether the left
or right wing, wo are not prepared to say.
Vi'hich in the true exponent of the princi
ples of tho present Democratic party, wc
shall not attempt to decide. If the doctrines
of Jefferson and Jackson were not ignored
by tic present party leaders, and their disci
ples were still living, they would, unques
tionably, rucognize the Republican papers
of this county as the only true exponents
if their piinciptis.
The Ouurd scums to think the great be-
sating sin of the party Las been sell, or in
other worm, a greoil tor otiice. I his lactis,
perhaps true. Hut without this motive
puwer this potent remedy, what vitality
would the party have this day f It was
nearly dead and buried, several years ago,
when Dr. Johusi
;on resuscitated it by resort-1 ,or 80me otUL'r foreign policy that of cow-
i;i.i i ,i,.,;.,;.ir;n,r ' ardice. While non intervention is our bct
,lible remedy, admumtenng ; tw u (o bfl oa Rrmed
ing to this iufall
doses that absolutely nauseaieu tne puunc,
Lut all to r.o purpose. Our neighbor, how -
ever, docs not lairly stale tho case, and docs
rtatinjustice lo our foreign population,
m ho alone have kept up the party, in this
coui.ty, by adding (several hundred new re
t ruits, annually, for a number of years. Be-i-IJcs,
iu an emergency, the party could
i.lwayB rely for aid from (heir fiieads, the
repeater's of Schuylkill county, along the
border. In this "free fight'1 of tho Demo
cracy of tliia county, wo do not, of course,
intend to interfere, but our lovo of justice
aud fair play impels us to give credit where
ibs credit belongs.

Jonx Minor Both died at bircsideuce
in Virginia, ou Friday last, in the sixty
seventh ytur of bis age. Until within a few
rears Mr. Bolts was well known as an ac'.ivo
politician, having served in the Legislature
of Virginia, and in Congress, for a number
of years. Ho was a Whig until the dispel',
lion of that party, when he attached hiin
fo'.f to the American organization. He was
t pposed to the lato rebellion, and at one
t.ine was thrown into prUon by the rebel
minorities. He attended the Southern Loy.

much regretted.

A Chaiwb in Georgia. The Georgia
Legislature tias discovered tkat circum
stances titer cases. The uegroci were ex
felled from the Legislature at a time when
it was believed to bo safe to do so. Now
that sucb expulsion promises to work the
overturning of their whole reconstruction,
the Georgia legislators are very anxions to
get out of it, and wonderfully willing to
abide by a decision of the court in the pre
mises. This eager humility is sufficiently
amusing, but even more gratifying. At last
southerners are capable of learning the will
of .the nation without haviDg it thrust into
them at the point of the bayonet. Theso
Georgians have heard of the election of
Grant, and they have found out precisely
what it means.
The President-elect. The Washing
ton correspondents of journals, in almost
every quarter of the country, are retailing
conversations of General Grant, as to his
policy his likes and dislikes, &c. Some of
them are so circumstantial that it is amaz
ing how correspondents can, knowing them
to be wholly without foundation, send such
stuff as having actually occurred. Grant can
scarcely light a cigar without being watch
ed and reported as to tho quality of the
weed, on which they found an idea as to
whether or not he is ia favor of economy
and retrenchment! Hois obliged just now
to be even more reticent than ever, and to
keep himself out of the way of these news
cormorants, in order to avoid being misre
presented, by having conversations and
opinions put in his mouth that he never ut
tered, however much ho may entertain them.
Tim Common ScnooL Retort. We have
received the Annual Report of the Stato
Superintendent of Common Schools for 1SC8.
From it wo learn there are in tho State 1,
918 School Districts, 13,066 Schools, aud
16,771 Teachers. The whole number of pu
pils attending the public Schools is 800,515.
The entire cost of the system in the State
was $1,617,056. Nearly $2,000,000 were
paid out for building purposes. The School
property in tho State is reported to be worth
$10,555,763. There are still ten districts in
tho Stale that havo not accepted the School
system, four of which arc in Northumberland
county, ono in Beaver, one in McKcan, one
in Somerset, two in Wyoming, and one iu
York. The Superintendent expresses him
self well satisfied with the progress our sys
tem of education has made during the year,
and has strong hopes of still greater progress
and improvement for tho future.
The United States Census. During
tho coming summer the regular ten-year
census of the United States is to be taken.
Congress will probably make special provi
sions for the great work. Statisticians cal
culate upon a population of forty millions.
It was thirty-one millions in I860, and
twenty one millions in 1850. Ono effect of
tho new census will no doubt be to alter
the present Congressional representation of
those States which deny to the colored men
the right of suffrage. Kentucky and Mnry
luud will certainly have to lose a few Con
gressmen or clso enfranchise their colored
population.
On the Fourth of March next tho terms
of the following Senators expire: Bayard
of Dulcware, Buckulew of Pennsylvania,
Chandler of Mich., Conness of California,
Dixon of Connecticut, Doolittlo of Wiscon
sin, Edmund of Vermont, Frelinghuyson of
Now Jersey, Henderson of Missouri, Hen
dricks of Indiana, Morgan of New York,
Morrill of Maine, Patterson of Tennessee,
Uaniscy of Minnesota, Sprague of Rhode
Island, Stewart of Nevada, Sumner of Mas
sachusetts, Tipton of Nebraska, Van Win
kle of West Virginia, Wrade of Ohio, Welch
of Florida, and Whyte of Maryland. Of
these twenty-two Senators, only two so far
have been re elected, Messrs. Edmunds and
Sprague, both Republicans. In California
Eugeuo Casserly, Democrat, has been elected
to succeed Mr. Conness. In Connecticut
ex Governor Buckingham, Republican, has
been elected to succeed Mr. Dixon, Demo
crat. Mr. Patterson, of Tennessee, and a
Son-in-law of President Johnson, will be
succeeded by Parson Brownlow. Ohio will
exchaugo Ben Wade for Judge Allen G.
Thurman, Democrat, and Maryland, William
Finckney Whyte for Wm. Hamilton, both
Democrats. Tho Florida Legislature has
elected Abijah Gilburt to succeed A. S.
Welch, the latter gentleman, although he had
been representing Florida iu tho Senate, for
the last six months, he has never given up
his residence in his own State of Ohio, where
he will return after the 4th of March to take
charge of tho State Agricultural College.
He is the ouly Senator (Southern) who
goes out with this Congress.
The Hon. Edwin M. Stanton takes a view
of tho foreign policy n hich should be adopt
ed by our Government that will be heartily
approved by every genuino American. Ac-
. cording to the Washington correspondent
. 0f tho Cincinnati Cvmmtreial,Uo has cx-
: pressed himself iu the following manner :
"The fact is, tho time has come when the
interest and dignity of our Government cull
iutcrvention, ready to strike and not beg
j when our interests are touched. We have
"c,-u '""S icenrueu u unuuu 01 suop
keepers, willing to suffer wront; und put up
with insult rather than be at the expense of
a war. This is paying a premium on ag
gression, and wc cannot get our rights or
command respect as long as it cnutiuues.
''It is time to run up the Amcricun flag,
and not keep it locked away in legations as
a precious relic, sacred to tho eyes of the
initiated. Nor should it bo flourished as it
was over tho barricades in Cadiz tho other
day, for which the press here is so loud in
its praise. What that fellow was doing
there as an American Consul, with the
American flag, is more than I can make out.
I am willing to bet that at the moment he
appeared, tho republicans we're giving the
royalists a sound thrashing. I'll venture to
say that, if tho truth could be known, it is
the old story.
"Tbo moment a diplomatic agent of ours
reaches the shore of Europe, he softens into
an humble admirer of desuotic covcrnments.
and if he brings out our ring it is in behalf
oi our enemies, w liile the utmost prudence
and cautious wisdom should be exercised in
treating these complicated questions con
nected with our foreign affuirs, it is our in
terest, and will prove good ecouomy in timo,
to make these governments reulizc that we
are as ready to strike for our rights as we
were willing to stake our existence on the
suppression of domestic insurrection."

Johnson, who is within seven weeks of
the end of his term, continues to rush upon

President Johnson is expected to very
soon pardon the assassination conspirators,

this act to crown his career of infamy.

It is not believed that Johnson will remain

but will absquatulate a day or two before
tho law will call "tiuio up," as so mo of his
predecessors have done.
Tbo southerners are sieauny coming out
in favor of uuiversal suffrage and uuiversal
pardon. Many eeo it is useless, since the
election of Grant, to hold out any longer,
but to mako the best that their late treason
will admit of.
Tho Rosenburg fraudulent naturalization

Grant acd Collak Club,to the number of ono

headquarters, for the purpose of presenting
hi in u handsomely engrossed congratulatory
letter, enclosed in a neat framo. They were
invited iuto tho reception room, and soon
after General Grant entered tho room, (in
his left hand a lighted cigar) escorted by
General Dent, who introduced Mr. Cliarli-s
E. Luthrop, the president ot the club, and
Foreman of the Government Priutiug Office,
as follows :
General : We meet you here to day bv
appointment to tender tint congratulations of
tue Printers orant ana Lollux Llun on jour
election to tho highest office iu lliu gilt ul
tho American people. -That the expression
of our rejoicings over that event may bu as

by one of our members und engrossed on
parchment a congratulatory letter, 6igr.ed
hy nearly the entire membership, and ueatly
framed, which I now havo the honor to pre
sent to you. I trust that you will receive
this mark of our respect and aduiirntion for
your distinguished career iu the service- of
our common country iu the sincere und hearty
spirit in which it is tendered, and that as we
grasp you by tho hand you will feel well
assured that you have our best wieIus
for the success of your admitiiatration and
the consequent prosperity of our beloved
country.
Mr. Lathrop then introduced each mem
ber present individually, nnd as they passed
each shook the General by the hand. Gen
eral Grant then spoke as follows :
Gestlemkn: 1 thank you very kindly
for this manifestation of your sentiment.-.
I don't know anything more I can say than
that I am glad to have bad the support of
all classes, and particularly of those who ure
finding employment under the Government.

Havaka, Jan. 7. The Stea mer Imnnra.
ture, from Vera Cruz, brings still later dates
from Mexico. There wero many rumors,
some of them climing to come from reliable
sources, that Mexico is on the eve of a revo
lution. It is asserted that the people are
disgusted with the administration of Juarez;
that the President is controlled by Terdo'
de Tcjada ; that tho government officials do
as they please, and there is no protection for
American residents.
An American was murdered outside the
walls of Vera Cruz shortly before the sailing
of tbo French steamer. Tho assasein, al
though known to the authorities, was suffer
ed to escape, and arrived at Havana yester
day. The United States Consul at Vera
Ciuz is powerless to obtain justice. The
Mexicans are much incensed against the
United States, aud some of them clamor for
another war. It was reported that General
Alatoriee would head a revolution against
Juarez for the purpose of placing Porfiio

NAfnv U.K. Jan. 1 1.' - A band of the Kn-Elux-Klan
made a raid into Livingston
county; Tennessee, on the night of Decem
ber 89. What particular object they had is
not known, but they left after a sharp con
flict with a patty of colored men, forgetting
to carry away with them half a dozen horses
and their shrouds. The negroes claimed
the horses and trophies, nd sent them away
for safe keeping.
The Ku-Klux returned on tho night of
January Z, largely roinlorcctl, and demanded
of Mr. Lewis, United States Attorney, that
he should inform them tho disposition of
the horses. Mr. Lewis did not know, and
so informed tlicm. They then exacted a
promise from him to ascertain, stating that
they would return. Some of them visited
the town next day. and were very threaten

tho raid to this city. Ho is trying to get
