The JDanncrat having always been se
v: ro in its denunciations of tho Xew York
Tt ilrtnr, we are surprised to see it garbling
extracts from that paper. Having no hopes
-of i!ic "Tammany King'' any longer, the
editor, no tJoulit, expects to redeem his past
couife by occasionally quoting the j'n'tuiic
'The readers of tho Jhmocrat ns Well as the
Tnhuvc, would prefer the whole of tho ar
ticle copied, instead of garbled extracts,
ti nHicc that paper in a wrong light. The
A::r.uii'AV never pretended that there
.,eie no rogues outside tho Democratic
jiiuiy. They will bo found in nil parties,
llutv.e do say that the piliey of the lkmo-
cralie nurty has been, for many years, to
cover up ull frauds nnd rascalities commit
ted by members of their party, whilst He-
publicans do not hesitate to denounce and
expose them, without respect to party. We
want no heller evidence of this than the
fact that Domocratiu editors, with few ex
centio!n. nl tempted rather lo excuse, than
denounce the traitors who openly boasted
of iheir determination to break up litis
government. Tho Democrat never had an
vmkiuil word, even for such arch traitors
s Jell' Ii; vis, 'reekinridg', Toombs,
nor for tho robberies of Floyd nnd others,
.li.ii ig tho rebellii n, because: they were
Democrats. 12 veil tho recent stupendous
iiMtuls by tho Now York olllciuls were
passej over by our n ighbor in silence.
'IslT Not Tims? The question has
been appropriately asked, now that the
IVtnocrats in New York are disposing of
their rascals, is it not time that tlie ltndi
cnls should exhibit equal honest. Carpct
bnggers are plundering the Southern States
to bankruptcy, and rn venous rings sucking
tho life-blood of tho Federal government.
Why don't tho Radicals kick them over
board as Iho Democrats do their rascals ?
Do vou nivo it un f Becnusn. if tlicv did.
thero would not be honest men enough left
in tin, party to carry a singlo State in tho
union."
Wo copy tho above from tho Democrat of
l ist week, which appers to show that tha
editor is getting nshamed of tho company
hr is in, nnd is endeavoring to cover up his
tracks during tho Inst campaign. It is well
known that ho was among tho vilest to
persecute honest Democrats becauso they
refused lo support tho Tammany lting ticket
iu this county, which he defended nnd sup
ported throughout. Even candidates de
feated at the Democrr.tio primary election,
by fraud of tho Tammany party, were de
nied space in tho itemorraf for ft card, for
fear their fraud nnd corruption would bo
revealed. An edict was sent forth through
this same paper thnt tho names of all voting
ngninst tho Tammany ticket chould bo
placed in n book for fuluro reference to
brand them ns disorganizcrs. Why did not
the Dcmncmt then denounce tho Tammany
Ring ns "rascals" nnd defend tho rights of
honest Demcrats. When tho head of the
Tammany Ring was nttaeked by the Re
publicans and honest Democrats to disgorge
their plunder, the Dtmocrat kept silent nnd
was trembling for its Xcw York ' friends.
Since thero is a probability of tho honest
people, regardless of party, driving the
thieves out of New York nnd punishing
them, nnd thero is no more hope for money
to be sent through tho country to keep up
tlie branch Rings, tho Democrat wants to
claim it as Iho work of tho Democrats. Wo
would like our neighbor to explain which
ho now claims ns tho Democratic party,
the ono he is connected with, or the party
opposing the fraud nnd corrupliou of tho
Tnniiuany Ring ?
The discovery of the fact that Congress
man Leach, of North Carolina, is a mem
ber of the Kuklux Klan reveals how wide
spread is that organization, and how thor
oughly it permeates tho entire society of
tho .South. 12x-(iovirnor HoUUu, of
North Carolina, believes that every South
run Democratic Congressman is a member
of the Klan, and we think iho facts, if ever
fully brought to light, will support him.
Ho asks Congress what it is going to do,
and we repeat the question. Any man
who subscribes to such a document ns the
constitution of this infamous Jiand is not
only an enemy of his country, but dead to
every generous emotion or feeling. Uefore
tho investigation is through it is probably
that thero may bo revelations which will
implicate many Northern Democrats, nnd
wo would not ba surprised at such result.
It is barely possiblo that not only tho idea
of tho organization, but Iho money comes
from tho North .
The editor of tho Dtmocml, says, lhat
wo "became so used, during the past cam
paign, iu manufacturing lies that wnoannot
now tell tho truth." We arc sorry neighbor
that you did not discover it sooner, wo
threw tho challenge to you for contradic
tion which was declined. Wo aro still
open for conviction, and now challenge the
Juuocr-rifto prove that we stated anything
during tho campaign that was not correct.
Terliaps our neighbor has becomo so har
dened iu deceiving his readers, that he can
not tell right from wrong. Wo say the
X. Y. 7V.&I H' does not corroberato tho
Democrat. Tho Tribune docs not suppress
the truth by garbled extracts, ns tho Demo
crat does.
Tho lion. Ueorgo 11. Parker, a promi
nent Democrat nf Iown, publicly declares
lhat tho Dcniociatic party, ns an organiza
tion is dead, nnd if tho Democrats expect
to resurrect its principles, nnd succeed in
147'J, they must abandon tho old organiza
tion aud become an integral portion of it
new party.
The small-pox in New Yeirk is increas

NIliV'r.R NET PRKWCNTATIONi
At K meeting of tho Par of the Eighth
Judicial District, hold at the office of the
Hon. John 11. Packer, in Sunbury, on
Tuesday evening Nov. 7th 1871, the fol
lowing proceedings were had.
Gcorgo Hill, lusq., was called to presido
nnd T. J. Galbraith, Esq., wna made Sec
retary. The object of the meeting was stated by
A. N. Bricci, Esq., who announced to the
meeting that the Silver Tea Service, which
at a previous Par-meeting it hnd been re
solved to procure nnd presont to tho Hon.
Alexander Jordnn, President Judgo of tho
Eighth Judicial District, was finished nnd
ready for delivery. Whereupon it was un
animously resolved thnt J. W. Coniley,
Esq., be requested to present said Silver
Servico to his Honor Judgo Jordnn, on lie
half of tho members of tho liar, and tho
otllcers of tho Courts, of Northumberland
and Montour counties, composing tho
Eighth Judicial District. U. v. Hvon, S.
P. Wolverton nnd Ueorgo W. 2oigler,
Esquires were appointed a committee to
communicate this request and invitation lo
Mr. Comley. U was further resolved lhat
one o'clock p. m., of Saturday Nov. 18lh
be fixed ns tho dny aud timo for lhat cere
money. Win. II. M. Oram, Esq., moved tho np
pointmeut of a committee of three, to druu
suitable resolutions.
Tho Chair appointed W. II. M. Oram,
li. 11. Kase, nnd lien. John Kay Clement
Esqrs., such committee.
Tho meeting then ndjourned lo meet in
tho Court room nt Sunliury, nt ono o'clock
p. in.. Saturday Nov. ISth.
Saturday Nov. 18th 1S71 Court opened
in form ; lion. A. Shipmnn nnd Hon J.
Nicely, Associate Judges on Iho bench.
The committee niioointed to communi
cate lo J. W. Comley, Esq., the request of
Iho liar ouu ollicers ot tho courts ni ino
Eighth Judicial District, that lie would, on
their behalf, formally present a silver Tea
Service to Hon. A. Jordan, President Judge
of tho District, reported that Mr. Comley
had accepted the invitation, nnd wns pres
ent to jiei'form that duty.
Tho committee on resolutions through
Gen. John Kay Clemeut, presented tho
following, which was unanimously adopt
ed viz :
"Tho Hon. Alexander Jordan, President
Judgo of tho Eighth Judicial District, hav
ing ileclined re-election, and his successor
being dulv elected, tho timo is near when
after a faithful servico of 1 went v years, un
der tho provisions of tho law, he will retire
Uvni the licncli. Al such a, juncture, it is
a grateful duty, nnd profitable totheheait.
to remember nnd testily to tho mnnv vir
tues, aud hierh qualities and qualifications,
which have secured nnd justify our sincere
respct nnd ntlection.
Distinguished bv nn ability counted only
bv tho integrity of his life : a nrofessor of
flic Christian religion ; seeking to lvgulate
lus nublie nnd private conduct in strict
conformity with tho Christian liiith. and to
exemplify, by justiee nnd diligence, tlie
lianuonv ot reluious principles ami nro-
fessions with the diversified, important nnd
dignified duties of n citizen, a lawyer nnd a
Judge : Judge Jordan, when called to the
ltench, seems to have accepted as the guides
of his judicial nctious, tho spirit of those
mlmiratilo rules ol conduct laul down by
Sir Matthew Hale, when ho was npiiointed
Chief llaron of the Exchequer. Pules,
which Lord Campbell wisely remarks
"ought to be inscribed iu letters of gold on
tho walls of Westminster Hall, ns a lesson
to those entrusted with the administration
of justice." Tho first six of these rules es
pecially, have manifestly controlled tho olll
cial conduct of ludgo .for .lan. Namely :
1st. That in tho administration of jus
tice, I am intrusted for Hod, the King and
Country, nnd therefore,
2d. That il bo done, 1st. uprightly, 2d.
deliberately, ltd. resolutely.
ltd. That 1 rest not' upon my own
strength, but implore nnd rest upon the
direction and strength of (tod.
4th. That in the execution of justieni I
carefully lay aside my own passions, and
not givo war to them however provoked.
."illi. That I he wholly intent upon the
business I nm about, remitting nil other
cares and thoughts as unreasonable, and
interruptions.
(Uh. That I sutler not myself to be pre
possessed with any judgment at nil, till the
wholo business of botli p u ties lie heard."
We might, indeed, almost adopt and ap
ply upon this occasion, as expressing our
own feelings and sentiments, portions of
tho encomium bestowed by liichard it ixter
upon Lord Hale himself. "That unwearied
student, that prudent man
who would net 1 ave ili tie r.n unjust act
for any worldly price or motivo '
That goodly, serious and practical chris
tian tho love r of goodness, and all good
men.
Animated wi'h a genuine ambition ; with
firm ami determined purpose; without for
tune or adventitious aitls ; cotitiding iu his
own virtue nnd industry to overcome all
obstacles, .1 udge Jordan vugagcel at an early
age, as a i leik in the Prolhouotury's uttlce
in Northumberland county, while at the
same time pursuing the study of the law ;
thus acquit ing, in 'connection with the
principles of legal i-cience, a knowledge of
iho practical funis of the profession with
the details of business ; an. I forming those
methodical and systcmat c habits of dili
gence winch have marked Ins subseoiicnt

Jrnuis JiiitDAN,
The Judges, your Associates, and tho
members of the bar of tho Sth Judicial Dis
trict, have wailed upon you to express
the.r nppre aation o yonr services in tho
olllce from which you are about to retire.
Nono arc so well acquainted as we, with tho
extent and importance of your judicial la
bors, or with the cainittuiss with which
you have endeavored to perform them, im
partially, ns well us with legal skill ; nnd
when you informed us, before tho lain
election, that the state of your health so
urgently required rcpoi-o, that you had re
solved noi to accept a third term, we heard
with unfeigned regret that any cause exis
ted to Induce you lo lay aside tho judicial
functions. And our confidence in you hns
been vot'.ulled by thai of the people) of your
district; for, when tho change iu tho Con
stitution of tho State required tho voters to
elect the President Judgo of their district,
the electors of the Sib Judicial District, in
which you resided and had spent your pro
fessional life, choso you to bn tiicir lirst
.Judge, and ufter ten years' trial, Ihey re
elected you ; and after twenty years of ser
vice, it you had permitted it, they would
have again re-elected you, without any
doubt, uud 110 one would have been your
competitor. During this servico ot twenty
years, you have tried many cases of great
importance iu principle and in value, and
you havu lieen called upon to decide almost
innumerable questions all'ecting the lives,
Iho liberties, the characters, iho properly,
business ami relations of tho citizens and
residents of a largo and busy community ;
nnd many of these decisions, sanctioned by
tho Supremo Court, have become land
marks 111 tho law, and will remain there as
your titles to respect as a learned Judge.
Hut tho patience, forbearance, nnd kindness
which on the trial of causes, you have al
ways exhibited to tho counsil engaged iu
