IleClAr+L A N.
SENSIBLE TO THE LAST DEGREE.
We invite the special attention of our
-Republican readets who insist that Demo•
crats shall sustain the President in every
thing he does or proposes to do, right or
wrong, to the following sensible reflections
on the subject from a Conservative paper :
It is the duty of all patriots, it is plaus
ibly contended now, to support the Admin
istration, which is carrying on a war for
the salvation of the country. Opposition
to an Administration weakens its power.
Is it not equally the duty of an Adminis
tration to support the country and not defy
it ? If the President will not support the
country, how will it support him ? Let
the Administration abandon the use of
means that the country has condemned ;
that is his duty. In England, when Par
liament votes a want of confidence, the
executive power is changed by a change
of vinisters. This keeps the executive and
legislative departments in harmony. In
case of war, this is an exceedingly conve
nient principle, if it. be not indispensable.
We have' not felt the want of it ; for we
have not made war a trade. Peace has
been our policy ; and the difference be
tween the Executive and Congress bas not
been of any great consequence. Now har
mony is needed, and how is it to be effect
ed? Must the people surrender their
judgment to the Executive? Will that do
in a free country? We think not. There
is but one way to avoid the evils that may
result from a lack of harmony. Let the
policy condemned by the country be aban
doned by the Executive. That is a plain
duty, and it should be performed with
cheerfulness. An attempt to emancipate
slaves, as a means to put down the rebel
lion, has been condemned by the verdict
of the people. There is no doubt of that.
It is not worth while to set up any pre
tense of misunderstanding on so plain a
point. Other causes had some effect, no
doubt ; but this was the main one ; not be
cause the people of the free States are pro
slavery, but because the means proposed
by the President sets aside the Constitu
tions and laws of States, and, in fact, sets
aside all constitutional provisions.
If the Executive cannot surrender this
policy, then the evils of divided counsels
will remain.
Another matter, this idea of setting
aside the civil authorities in loyal
States, and substituting the arbitrary, will
not do. It is condemned, and should be
abandoned now before further difficulty
grows out of it.
The people have, in the late elections,
decided that the Union must and shall be
preserved, and that no legitimate means
shall be wanting to put down the rebellion.
That is enough:. It is all the Administra
tion should ask. All else in the prosecu
tion of this war is prompted by }arty,
and is in pursuit of party objects. They
are not means of putting down the rebel
lion, but party objects, pursued for party
ends, and greatly aggravate the evil to Le
remedied.
Let the Administration abandon all
these party objects. They are condemned
by the popular verdict. Let them, we
may, abandon them and all will be well.
Thii course, on his part, is indispensable
to the success of the war and the restora
tion of the Union. It is too much to ask
a free people to support a President in
what they believe to he utterly wiong.—
l l'he suggestion is one of cool impudence.
A man is not a ruler in this conatry by
Divine right, with a right to ask support
for hie notions and party purposes, in spite
of public opinion.
Whilst the people are resolved to put
down the rebellion, and restore the vitality
of the Constitution and laws of the Fede
ral Government, they are equally resolved
to put down another revolution against
State Constitutions and State laws.
Military discretion must keep in legal
bounds, according to the laws of nations,
and the institutions of this century, or it
will never put down this rebellion.

GULLIVER'S TR AVELEI4
An additional chapter of this popular
and entertaining romance appears in the
last "Brownsville Clipper," under the title
of "A Trip through the State of Greene."
The author. Seth T. Hurd, Esq., though
extensively travelled, well stricken in
years and chie4 played out, is still on his
pegs and peregrinations ; and it is to be
hoped, notwithstanding his many and often
infirmities, will be able to "push the work
on to completion" through the columns of
his spicy and rentable monthly. Allow ~us
to suggest, Seth, that you tell us in the
next chapter "How you made General
Lorimer Governor and Simon Cameron
Senator ?" and let us know how many
coash you "did" the Connecticut politi
cians out of in your travels and campaign
ings in that quarter. More anon, in the
way of suggestions, if necessary. But if
we should drop you no more hints, Seth,
and should decline further notice of you
or your anonymous buntlings, it will be
for the reason given by the hunter, in the
following anecdote, for declining "battle"
with a certain extremly offensive animal :
i "A sportsman, who was not a very ex
perienced hunter, sallied out one morning,
and at last waked up a skunk. The hun
ter, not knowing the peculiarities of the
essence peddler, took after him with a
sharp stick. He did not operate long be
fore he retired in disgust. A neighbor,
who knew precisely what was in the
wind, from the state of the atmosphere,
ran up, exclaiming: "Tom, have you kill
ed him ?" "Killed the devil !" replied
the indignant hunter. "Just let the d—d
thing alone, and it will stink itself to death 1"
HIT IT.THAT TIME.
"Loyal men tattrzot much longer
afford to support a disloyal paper.
It is enough to tolerate it."
So says Corporal Evans, and so
say we. The loyal Democrats of
Little Greene have sustained the
"Republican" long enough, and it is
high time their money and patron
age should be withdrawn. They
have "nourished the viper into life"
that now stings them and strikes its
fangs as well at their dearest rights
and liberties as at the Government
and Union of their fathers. How
they can support a paper that habit
ually libels their political sentiments
and love of country, has long been
matter of eurprise to us.
AN UNEXPECTED VISIT.
A Cavalry Company belonging to the
3,1 Virginia Regiment and en route for
New Creek, Hampshire county, Va.,
spent last 'Wednesday night in our village.
The Company came direct from Wheel
ing, and was raised, principally, in
the vicinity of Morgantown, and number
ed near a hundred rank and file. Our
citizens threw open their houses, and eve
rything was done to make the brief stay
of the brave lads as pleasant as possible.
The following card has been handed us
for publication :
A CARD OF THANKS.
The undersigned, in behalf of Company
D, 3d Virginia Regiment, take this oppor
tunity of tendering our heartfelt thanks
to the citizens for the kind and hospitable
manner in which our Company was re
ceived and entertained in your town. We
beg leave to say that the soldiers of this
Company will always cherish a warm
and sympathetic feeling for the citizens of
Waynesburg, and we hope that you may
always meet with that happiness and
prosperity that your kindness and hos
pitality merit.

ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC TRIDMPIL
The Democrats carried the election
held in New Haven, Conn., on Friday
by 500 majority.
GEN. HALLECK.—Tbe Boston Post asks
a question which Major General Haase&
won 't answ er, which is as follows:

"There is reason to believe that the eye-'
tem of arrests which has characterised the
war thus far will be henceforth greatly
modified. Some of the most earnest Re
publicans in the free Stales have besought
the President to prohibit all unnecessary
arrests by persons beneath him in office.—
It is believed that henceforth no arrests
will be made of any but really dangerous
' persons, and that the Wan. Department
will not attempt to punish civilians for
misconduct by summary arrests and long
imprisonments. The President is fully
convinced that the sense of the country is
overwhelming against anything savoring
of tyranny or of a military despotism.—
Some of the arrests made have been unne
cessary and unjust, and the Admiistration
has suffered for its mistakes."
siar So says a Washington city corres
pondent of one of the New York papers.
It is high time these arbitrary and illegal
arrests anclimprisonments had ceased.—
They are outrages on the personal liber
ty of the citizen which the American peo
ple will no longer tolerate, as they have
very emphatically intimated at the late
elections. We are glad "Father Abra
ham" has taken the hint,.

If the "Col. Barrows," whose

Evans is so fond of parading in his
columns, has shown as much pluck

ABOLITION DOCTRINES AND SEN
TIMENTS.
That the Abolitionists would destroy the
Constitution and introduce a despotism,
is no empty charge. We give a few ex
tracts to show the temper of that party :
"A man of firm and resolute will, with
a million of men iu arms to support him,
can do pretty much as he pleases. They
have to learn that paper Constitutions,
however convenient they may be, can be
laid aside or suspended when necessary.—
N. 1: .7Vmes.
The Rev. Et. Bellows, in his late sermon
on the proclamation, said :
"The policy of the utter destruction of
slavery and the slave power once avowed,
the next is to cashier every General who
dares to question or disregard it, to dis
miss every Cabinet officer who disputes it,
and to silence every press that lifts its guilty
columns against it."
"If the President should determine that,
in order to crush this rebellion, the Con
stitution should be suspended during the
rebellion, I believe he has the right to do
it !"—E. C. Ingersoll, Abolition candidate at
large in Illinois for Congress.
"I am not a Constitutional man! lam
for carrying on this war under the Consti
tution, over the Constitution, through the
Constitution, around the Constitution, or
against the Constitution. Any way what
ever, so as to put down this rebellion !"
Rosette, Illinois Abolition' candidate for the
Legislature.
"This is a war of extermination—a war
to get rid of slavery and elaveholders,
whether it be constitutional or not."—Dr.
Bellows.
Mr. Trumbull, the Republican Senator
from Illinois, recently made a speech in
Michigan in which he "thanked God that
the Federal arms were defeated at Bull
Run, and on the Peninsula, and under
Pope, for without such defeats we should
not have had the Emancipation Procla
mation Had we won at Bull Run, or
taken Richmond, he said the backbone of
rebellion would have been broken, and the
Union would have been restored with sla
very remaining in it !"

A •utnuous AfFAIR.
About the year 1789, says the Dubuque
Herald, some old codgers—well-meaning
enough, tint entirely ignorant of railroads,
steamships, daguereotypes, postage stamp
currency, and like matters, framed by au
thority of a free people, by which it was
afterwards adopted, an instrument, known
as the Constitution, called and considered
to be the supreme law of the land. To
show what jolly old fogies they were, we
print some of its provisions. They are
parts of a remarkable curiosity:—
"The trial of all crimes, except in cases
of impeachment, shall be by jury, and
such trial shall be held in the State where
the said crimes shall have been commit
ted.—Arl. 3, See. 3.
"No person shall be held to answer for
a capital crime or otherwise infamous
crime, unless on presentment or indictment
of a grand jury, except in cases arising
in the land or naval forges, or in the mili
tia when in actual service, in time of war
or public danger. Nor shall any person
* be deprived of life, liberty, or prop
erty, without due process of law.—Amend.
Art. 5.
"In criminal prosecutions, the accused
shall enjoy the right to a speedy and pub
lic trial, by an impartial jury of the
State and district wherein the crime shall
have been committed. —Amend. Art. 6.
"The right of the people to be secure
in their persons, houses, papers and ef
fects, against unreasonable searches and
seizures, shall not be violated ; and no
warrants shall issue but upon probable
cause, supported by oath or affirmation,
and particularly describing the place to be
searched, and the person or thing to be
seized."—Amend. Art. 4.
THE VIEWS OF PRESIDENT LIN
COLN AND THE CABINET UPON
TEE LATE ELECTIONS.
We have no doubt that the following,
from the Washington correspondentof the
New York Harald, is substantially true.—
He says:
r "As soon as the result of the election
was known, a meeting of the Cabinet was
held, at which, it is understood, President
Lincoln announced to the assembled mem
hers that in his opinion the result wss a
verdict against the radical policy, and es
pecially against the Emancipation Procla
mation, and that Mr. Seward, Mr. Blair
and Mr. Smith echoed his words and his
arguments! It is said that after the Con
servatives in the Cabinet had expressed
their views, Mr. Chase calmly and delib
erately told Mr. Lincoln that there were
two courses open for him. If he with
drew the proclamation and discarded the
policy he had been pursuing since it was
issued, the war would be promptly stopped,
assuring him at the same time that upon
the opening of Congress, Mr. Sumner and
Mr. Wade iu the Senate, and Mr. Stevens
and Mr. Lovejoy in the House of Repre
sentatives, were ready to make a proposi
tion for peace with the Southern Confed
eracy; that not another life should be lost,
nor another dollar spent, if this war was
to be a war for the restoration of slavery ;
that as these gentlemen controlled a ma
jority in the Congress which is to govern
the country, so far as the appropriations
go, for another year, they were in position
to dictate th• course of the Administra
tion. Not only must he adhere to the
Proclamation as issued, and to all its rad
ical features, but he must, moreover, give
it the benefit of Generals in the field
who believe in it.
"The story goes on to relate that letters
were received from Senators Sumner,
Wade, Wilson, Fessenden and other rad
ical leaders in the Senate, and from Stev
ens, Loveloy, Roscoe, Conkling and other
radicals in the House, stating that if the
Emancipation Proclamation should be
withdrawn, the war must be stopped and
would be stopped.
"That the President has yielded to some
such persuasion as this, we do tot doubt ;
nor the rumor that he will, after the open
ing of Congress, modify his Cabinet by
making it an Abolition unit, and super
sede the Generals in the field with Aboli
tion chieftains."
PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S COLONY.
The colony of negroes that President
Lincoln is about to establish somewhere
outside of the United States at the people's
expense, is likely to prove a costly affair
under the superintendence he has selected.
He has confided the experiment to the
hands of Senator Pomery, of Kansas, and
R. W. Thompson, of Indiana—men in
whose wisdom the people generally have
little confidence, and in whose honesty
they have none. The Albany Evening
Journal, a Republican paper under the
control of Thurlow Weed, a warm person
al and political friend of the President,
seems to regard the scheme with some
thing more than suspicion, and mounds the
alarm in very ambiguous language. The
Journal says:
"The swindle is proceeding under the
auspices of R. W. Thompson, of Indiana,
and Senator Pomeroy, of Kansas. It be
hooves President Lincoln, of whose integ
rity there is no question, to look well into
this scheme before committing himself to
it. There is nothing but dishonesty in the
scheme, any way; but if colonization should
become expedient, this surely is not the
time to go into it. the government has
quite enough upon its hands. Mr. Thompi
son's connection with the project is enough
to stamp its character and purpose."
The President having, himself inaugur
ated this "dishonest scheme," will proba
bly not pay much attention to the advice
of his friend Weed ; indeed, we do not see
how be can, having once pledged himself
to it; so that it is more than likely Messrs.
Pomeroy and Thompson will make a
good thing oat of it, whether the negro*.
do or not.—Lan.
