How Mr. Wilrert could forget tbia fact when be wa an apprentice in the offiae ia tboia day, and a Democrat fclmaelf, we fail to conjecture." Our memory, perhaps, (nay bare failed 10 me, but wa do remember very diattoctly, tbat tba principles advocated by tha Demo cra'le party at tba time wben entering tbia office at an apprentice, were quite AHTvrsflt from tltoie the editor of ihDmotrat aow advocate. Then, tba Democratic party car tied out the principle! aa laid dawn by Jefferson anrl -Jackson ; but time bai work ad many changes, aud none to great aa tboia io tba Democratic parly. While the corrupt portion managed to gat tba away, lie honest and tme member ware com' pelted to asiume another nam to carry out the true principle! of Democracy. Although a boy, we were Barer wore strongly im pressed witb the corrupt courte of many of tbe Democratic leader, than wben tbt gen: tleman referred to in tbe above paragraph, at "our Democratic tountman" left tbe office on account of hoMing different viewa from bit partner, aa to what constituted Demo cracy, to find mare genial companion in tba South. And, aa we examined -clflacr iato tbe working of thote wbo professed to be tbe genuine Democratic leader, we be came more convinced than -ever, tbat tba right cnurie for ui toatart out in the world, would be to keep clear fram that kind of Eemocrecy ibat finally oulmioated ia die union and rebellion. When wa were) allowed to exercise the Tight of tuflrage, we did sot beiitate to cast our first ballot for Gen. Scott for PreiJ. nt Jo 1852. Since then wa bare no recollec tion of catting our vote for a tingle Demo cratic candidate lor tbe Presidency. Our contcience will never check u for voting, or in any way aiding to elect Jamea Ba eli an m to the Presidency, or even Iloratio Seymour, tbe last representative of tbat kind of Democracy that lead to and ended with tba lata rebellion. But a our neighbor ia io a critical mood, it may be proper to aay tba America waa not started by "Jo. Eitely & II. 13. Jlueai !-," but tbat U.

Tba officer in command of the detachment (oon understood from Mr. Cola the state of tbe caae, and contented that Rehrer aliould accompany Mr. Cole to a private room. That having been done, Itehrer confested to Mr. Cola tbat the motive for bit decamping in the mysterious manner he bad done, waa the fact that he waa heavily indebted to hi father, father-in-law, and othera, and tbat he aaw ao prospect of extricating hlmeelf from hie penenniary liabilitiea.

Ia this be wat mistaken, for bit commaad was scot to Washington, where it has aiore been atationed. These are briefly, the facta it told by Rehrer himself. If aware of the annoyance, distress and expense which have reeulted from bis conduct, which wa presume he ia, and appreciating tlx-m, his feelings of re morse and eorrow ate oot to be eovie I. We might state in connection with this matter, tbat when Gov. Geary was applied to offer a reward for Information which would lead to tbe diacoverv of the fate of Capt.

Mlntrt Journal, of hitt trlik; Toe Governor of Georgia in bis message to the Legislature, transmitting the fifteenth amendment, on the 10th iost. says: "It is a source of great gratification to the lovers of liberty and republiciin principles throughout tbe country that Con gress has given us ibis further pledge that the declaration of our fathera that "all men lire created equal," ahall be recognized as a reality, and no longer a mere empty sound. The equal right of every man. either by himself or others, to participate in framing laws by which to be governed, and thu selection of persona to execute them, is the very foundation of a republican government; and that one race or coler aball undortako to exclude from political privileges any other race or color, ia not only a practical denial of the principle on which our inde pendence was originally declared, and our Government subsequently founded, but dis plays a thirst for power, natural, it is true, to humau nature, but by no meana creditable to ita sena of justice."

Freeh shad at Lan caster, Columbia, Harrisborx, Sunbury, Wil- iiauieporr, wuicetbarre, up the Juniata, Ac, would be a great source of luxury and sup port to tha people there and all along the river and for twenty miles on either aide.

CORRESPONDENCE. f BOM OUR COBBE8FOND1GNT. ' Wasih.xctox, March 15, I860. Friend Wiltbiit. Ou Thursday night, March 11th, the "Pennsylvania Republican Association," composed of Pennsylvauians temporarily residing in tbia city, tendered to the Hon. John rtcott, our new United States Senator elect, a reception and supper, at tba "Kirkwoud Houe," wbicb was ac knowledged to be one of the finest affairs of thu season. The association proceeded in a body, headed by a fine band of music, from their room in Union Lengue Half, and re ceived the Senator in the parlor of the "Kirkwood House," where Col. A. S. Fuller, on behalf of tbe association, aaid : "SENAToit Soott We congratulate you upon your election to the office of United State Senator from Pennsylvania. Wo be lieve that tbe State ol Pennsylvania it more honored by your acceptance of the ofiicu of United States Senator than you are kooored by the election to that olfiee. Again we tender you our congratulations, together with asaurancea of our fullest confidence and esteem." Senator Scott, in response, said: "I thank you most heartily for this evi dence of your conHdrnce and esteem. I ap preciate tbe high honor that has beeu con ferred upon me io tbia election to represent in part in the United States Seaatu a con stituency of nearly fonr millions nf people, with diverse interests commercial, manu facturing and agricultural. "In view of the great responsibilities in volved, I almoet tbfink front the duties im posed. But, at Pennsylvania during tbt war waa true to the Government of our fathers, so I, in the discharge of these new duties, will endeavor to bo true to tha inter ests af Pennsylvania and the nation.'' The membera of the association were then individually presented to Mr. Scott, wben, they proceeded to the dining room, where a splendid supper whs in waiting. Besides a number of Congressmen and other persons of note, about two hundred were seated at tbe tablca. After "filling tbe inner man" till all ware satiated, end still remaining at the tables, Col. Fuller, president, proposed as a first toast, "Our Ruest," to which Mr. Scott replied in a glowing tribute of Peanaylrania, her representatives, and her course during tbe rebellion. He referred to the leniency the government had extended to those wbo had desired ita overthrow, and expressed it aa bia opioion that the power of the govern ment to aduiiuister justice should have been made manifest He felt it waa tbe duty of legislators, nowrfo have written all over tbeir legialation, that wherever tbe spirit of trea aon reveale itaalf, it is to be crushed by na tional power. They ahoold see, that justice ahould be executed at home and abroad. Whatever might bo the feeling of John Bright ia England, the American people abould not forget, tbat wbile tbia govern ment waa ia peril, he was against us; and they will not agree to have tbe memory of the past washed out by mountains nf roast beef and puncheona of wine. Thia waa a very fine bit at Miniater Jobnasn. The re marks of Senator Scott were repeatedly in terrupted by loud applause, and at bia con clusion, clapping of hands sod er iee of "go on," were continued for teveral minute. After music by tbe band. A. A. Shiasler. ! &q., arose, snd in bis usual graceful aud dignified manner, asked permission to intro duce the name of Pii.y'.voHia'tftrite tun, tha Hon. Simon Cameron, wbo, though not present in person, be felt aarc, waa in ths heart of every ons. This, too, wss received with loud applause, Mufly other speakers addressed tbe party, but I will not take np the apace ia your valuable paper by enumerating them, only mentioning two, tha Hon. Andrew Stewart, (Tariff Andy.) ths eldest member of Con gress now living, having been .elected in 1613, and the Hon. John Cessna. Tha re marks of tbe latter wers a perfect bit, and brought forth loud fit of lauithter and tre- mendoua applauae. the party brcka np at Um. all well pleased at the entertainment Mr. Kioz bad given them. I may here add, that tbe tables were free from liquors of any hind.
