"A sentiment not to be appalled, corrupted or
elomzimised. It knows no baseness; it eowers to
er; it oppresses no weakness. . Destructive
only o despotism, it is the sole conservator of lib

Freedom, of equal rights, of equal obligations--the
law of nature pervading ,the law of the land."

PRIMARY ELECTION.
SATURDAY, THE 30T13 OF MAY,
is the day set apart for the Democratic
Nominating Election, For the harmony
of the party, it is to be hoped it will be
conducted in strict accordance with the
rules adopted by the County Committee.
If this should be the case, the candidates
will be fairly nominated, and their success
at the Fall election placed beyond a per
adventure.
The aspirants for the several offices are
all familiarly known to most of our read
ers, and out of the long list presented an
excellent and available 'ticket may be se
lected. Let the people see to it that the
nominees are "honest and capable,"—or
thodox, Efficient and consistent Democrats.
Let us'have men who are fearless and
faithful, loyal to the country an 4 heartily
devoted to Constitutional liberty. Our
Representative, especially, should be of
unquestioned ability and intelligence,
right and reliable upon the great political
issues of the day, and fully committed
against all projects and policies assailing
the interests, rights and liberties of the
people. lie should oppose his vote and
influence to all measures violating the
State or Federal Constitution, or en
croaching ou the sovereignty of the
States. Conservative of the Union in
feeling and sentiment, and ready to make
any sacrifice to restore and perpetuate it,
he shirald denounce the Radicalism and
Fanaticism that oppose their mischievous
Counsels and partizan schemes to the
peace and well-being of the country.—
give us . a man who knows his duty and
feels his responsibilities, and will be equal
to them,—one who knows and dues the
right and will not yield to wrong, and
who has the brains and back-bone to make
himself felt.
Let the Ticket throughout be a good
good one,—stic:i a one Ltd will command
the confidence of party and people, and
be triumphantly elected.
"DEOIDEDLY RICH:"
We clip the following paragraph from
tht. Wheeling lutelligencer of May 12th.
Won't somebody tell us, quick, who got
off this last s-t-u-p-elt-d-o-u-s hoax on the
Editors of that exceedingly "knowing"
sheet? A little heavy boot-leather would
44 the fellow a "power of good." It is
scarcely necessary to say that his story
is stupidly and ridiculously false, and
could only have been palmed off on such
credulous souls as figure on the tripod of
the "Intelliggsicer:'
Couldn't find anybody to Surrender ti.
It is told us as a fact that when the
rebels were at Morgantown it was agreed
in Waynesburg, Pa., that no defence of
;the place should be attempted, and more
. over; that Jesse Lazear, M. C., and cashier
of the-bank there, went out eight miles
. with a flag of truce, hunting somebody to
surrender the town to, but lound nobody
after long and• diligent. search. It; 'is
thought to be too bad than "poor Jesse"
could find nobody to surrender the place
~to: Let him report the facts to Congress.
TELEGRAPH TO WAYNE3BURG.
`At a meeting in Pittsburgh on Monday
elrepint of last week, a Resolution was
adopted to the effect that the establish.
'went and erection of a line of communi-
Cation between this place and Cumberland
. via Waishihgton, Brownsville, Uniontown
laud Frostburg, with branches to Wavues
berg and Morgantown, as a military ne.
aeasity, and that the War Department at
Washington be immediately urged to es
tablish such lime of telegraph, and place
'hewn, under military protection.
We concur in the importance of the
proposed undertaking, and hope the Gov

BETTIRIEDIOMnMERS.
On Sunday lam, some 25 or 30 Greene
County lads,. belonging to Col. Clark's
(123 d) Regiment, reached Waynesburg,
Paving been paid off at Harrisburg last
week and mustered out of the service at
Pittsburgh on Saturday. They belonged
to the Company of Mayor Daum, of Alle
gheny city, and furnished a Lieutenant
for it in the person of Lava A. McFANN,
who returns with them holding a high
place in their esteem and.gonfidence. On
their arrival,, they were ,weleomed to their
homes by Col. Jons
. DUCEIANAN in a
brief, but happy and appropriate speech,
when they "broke ranks" and were greet
' ed, in most oordial terms, by relatives and
friends. They have done their duty gal
lantly and well, andfieverybody will be
glad to take them by the hand. The Reg
iment to which they belonged was in Gen.
Humphrey's Division, went out with 1,040
men, and came back with some six hun
dred. "Having been in but two battles,
and meeting with no severe loss in either,
the fact is . evident , that disease, the cli
mate, and hardships attending soldiering,
kill off vastly inure men than rebel bul
lets and shells." Only three of the lads
belonging to the squad from this place
lost their lives, viz : Serg't. John I. Dow
ney and a young Simonton, both of whom
died of disease, and Spencer Redmond,
who, it is supposed, was killed in the first
Battle of Fredericksburg.
NO-PARTY DEMOCRATS.
One of our cotemporaries has some sen
sible retlctions which we commend to the
special attention of such Democrats as
have been misled by the "No-Party" cry
of the Opposition :
It may be well t. remind those pretend
ed Democrats who leave the party, and
give as a reason that we should have "no
party" here in the Nardi, while the war
lasts, a few undeniable facts by way of re
freshing their memories.
The history of parties in this country
proves that in no time is party spirit so
bitter and so prevalent as when the oppo
sition, assuming a new name, is fishing
for gudgeons in the Democratic party.
At this time the cry of "no party" is
raised for the purpose of enticing Demo
crats from their old organization. While
this is going on, bitter partizan strife must
be expected, and upon that party rests the
responsibility who inaugurate the prac
tice.
Those who would heed this cry, if they
are honest, will remember that the party
they are intending to att with, is an or
ganization just as bitterly partizan as
any party ever was or can be. Hence
where is the gain to them in the further
ance of the very object they propose, by
refusing longer to act with the Demoerat
ic party.
Such individuals invariably protest,
that they "are as good Democrats as ever
they were." This, in the majority of
cases, is no doubt true, but not in the
seise they intend to be understood. The
Democratic party, however, think differ
ently. Such men should take a retro
spective view in the history of their lives.
and remember the remarks they made of
othe'es, who then pretended to have been
"left" by the Democratic party. Apos
tates in those days, also pretended to be
as "good Democrats as ever they were,"
and now can they not refresh their mem
ories and recall their feelings in those
days? Surely they appear to their for
mer political aso;?:iates, just as those did
to their eyes who had permitted the Dem
ocratic party to slip away from them.
A Democrat who is so easily turned
aside, cannot be very steadfast in his
principles. Ile may be a "rule or ruin"
Democrat, but strikes us he knoWe, .too
much in his own conceit and is too unwil
ling to defer his wishes to the majority of
his associates ever to be a quiet "no
party" man in any party he may asso
lciate himself with.
Suppose, for argument sake, some mem
ber of the party, or- some township or
county convention, or even a single State
in the Union should utter sentiments or
pass resolutions, winch every member of
the party could not sanction, is it the
duty of a good Democrat at once to sever
his connection with the party, and imme
diately thereafter to oppose its orgainiza
tion ? Not at all.
Leaving its orgaLization, we have no
voice in its councils, and fose all our in
tluericd 'to change the deterMination of
the masses adhering to its line of policy.
It therefore is the duty of every good
Dethociat to reniain with the organiza
tion, and in its councils, seek to steer its
course aright. We shoulei think little of
a man who whin upon a ship when in
danger would leave its crew to their fate,
while he had struck hands with the pir
ates yilio stood ready to Share in the
spoils. Seceding from its organization,
we sustain the same relation to it as the
rebels of the South after gOing out of the
Union. Who believed they are good
Union men—who' believes the former are
good Democrats? They are not a whit
wiser, nor a particle more justifiable so
far as principle is concerned. Secession
ever has, and ever will bring war and
contention. It brought war to the South,
and so also will it produce the same result
between the organization and the party 1
seceding from it. This should be contem
plated philosophically, and not produce
that bitter feeling against former friends,
which wool - 1g bigoted partizans it always
does.
Cannot such Democrats—pretended
Democrats, perhaps we should say—re
member the many hobbies got up by the
opposition, in order to break the Demo
cratic party, many of which they at one
time assisted to oppose. Have they for
gotten the Know-Nothing, Fusion, Repub
lican, No party party Union (?) dodges,
of recent date ;- or the old blue light,
Peace party, Hartford Convention Feder
alists of early years—not to discern "that
same old coon•' with an additional ring on
his tail
' Ah; but there are none so blind as they
who will 'nOt see.
To 'say that they cannot associate with
their old political friends is ridiculous in
me extreme. Democrats, enemies of
their country ! false to the Union—and
disloyal to constitutional obligations !
Oh what a delusion ! The heart of every
Democrat is filled with anxiety for the,
fate of our beloved country. We said
from the beginning of this anti-slavery
agitation, that this sec'-ional party upon
obtaining the aeceadency, would destroy
our Union. and inaugurate civil war.—
lias it been forgotton how earnestly we
warned them of the impending danger,
and how scornfully they ridiculed us as
"Union-screechers," Union-savers," etc.,
while they, happy fellows, laughed derid
ingly at the idea of a war with the South.
But the evil times have come and we all
alike must bear up under the blow :,o our
liberties, which they have given so un
thinkingly.
The Wien. the Constitution,. and -.the
liberties of the peo ple -- live these-14e
what, we .! want flow to do it—that is the
question. Suppose we. think war and
compromise, vtithout a, proclamation, is
the only thing—you that want a war of
extermination ,with a Pr oci amation —a n d
a third that neither one is suffizient to
save the Union, what reasonable man
will say that either one is a traitor ?
Let conservatives all unite under the
old banner of the Union, the Constitution,
and the enforcement of laws passed in
pursuance thereof, and thus taking coun
sel, we yet may save the Union, even
though others have failed.
A NEW; STORE AND NEW GOODS IN
RIORHILL !
Our excellent friend, MORGAN BELL,
late of Jacksonville, has re roved his
Store to Gray's Old Stand, (or Graysville,)
and has just returned from the East with
a full and elegant assortment of Dry
Goods, Notions, Hardware, Queensware,
Groceries, &c., bought for Cash and at the
lowest market prices, and since the late
decline in Goods. The stock embraces ev
erything, from a tack hammer to a silk
dress, and is adapted to all the wants of
tbe community. We trust our readers in
Richhill will remetn:)er the new Store,
and flock in crowds to it in making their
purchases. There is no fairer or more
upright dealer in the county than MOR
GAN BELL, and few better Clerks or better
ellows East of sundown than his popular
salesman, our courteous and pleasant
young. friend, MART. MONEGAR.
OIMP DRY GOODS.
MiNoR SG Co., at their old stand nearly
opposite the sank, are in receipt of a large
and (considering the prices lately prevail
ing,) an exceedingly cheap assortment of
Dry Gosds, Groceries, Queeusware and
Notions. For fair dealing and low prices
this old and reliat!e establishment is
among the first and best in the county.—
The firm have deserved a large share
,of
trade, and have had it, awl we trust will
long continue to prosper. Taste and judg
ment in their purchases, a varied and ex
sive stock, and the short profits at which
they sell their Goods will eusure their suc
cess. See advertisement in another col
umn, and go and look at their Goods.
()HEAP & FASHIONABLE CLOTHING.
Our readers, whose wardrobe may need
replenishing, would do well to examine
the assortment of our neighbor, A. J.
SowEfts, who has just shelved a large and
well-selected stock of Clothing for Spring
and Summer wear. In style and }rice
his goods will compare with any in the
market. See advertisement in another
column.
TELLING THE TRUTIL
The New York Times, after some months
of idle and slanderous denunciations of
the Democratic party, is compelled in its
issue of Saturday week to make this ad-
MIME
"We have never doubted thatAhe great
body of the Democratic party are fur pre
serving the Union and for crushing the
rebellion which alone threatens its exis
tence. We do not doubt that they look
upon a vigorous prosecution of the war as
the only means by which that result can
be brought about. And, in spite of all the
efforts that may be made to drive or se
duce the Democratic party from that po
sition, we believe it will hold it, with inti,
delity and firmness, and will insist, upon
the adoption of that policy by this admin
istration and by any other that may suc
ceed it. We are well aware that the Dem
ocratic party does not indorse very many
of the acts of the administration. We
have no right to ask such an indorsement
at its hands. Upon any of the details of
administration, upon any of the measures
which the President and Congress may
see fit to adopt, that party has a perfect
right to its own opinions. It may with
perfect propriety protest against the pro
clamation of emancipation, the policy of
arbitr,,ry arrests, the enlistment of negro
soldiers, and any other measure of the ad
ministration.
This covens the whole ground. We sup
pose the Times will say nothing more
about Copperheads until the next election
takes place.
THE DIFFERENCE.
The Portsmouth I imes says the theory
of Republicans is that the only way to
support the goiernment is to be in favor
of freeing the negroes, arming the negroes,
confiscating the negroes, emancipating
the negroes, and disregarding the Consti
tution. ks such not the case ? Do they
not term every man disloyal who opposes
such policy? The Democracy support the
government by maintaining the laws, up
holding the Constitution, defending what
is right, denouncing that which is Wrong,
and holding the interest of the white race
superior to the demands of negro phi
lanthropy. The Republicans sustain the
Administration in whatever is unconatitu
tional ; the Democracy in only that, which
is constitutional. That is the difference.
Let serious men think of these things,
and make their choice between the two
parties.
THIS UNION OR ANOTHER GOVERN
MENT.
The conservative party throughout the
country is pledged firmly to the Union
cause. The radical party is every where
engatzed in sowing the seeds of disunion by
teaching the people that the Union as it
was is not to be 'd esired, and that we are
fighting for some new government which
is to be constructed. The only rule of
faith ought to be the Constitution, the sole
object of the war ought to be the old Union.
That is worth fighting for. But as for a
new, vague, undefined government to suit
radicals, that is not worth fighting for.—
Let us keep the war to its true purpc,ses.—
Journal of Commerce
MR. CRITTENDEN'S ADVICE.
In a late speech in Philadelphia, the
Hon. John J. Crittenden said: "I+l . e4r
fail to protest against any violation of the
Conetithtion, nor let any member of the
Government transgress. People are very
easily habitlated to encroachments upon
their liberties. The siren song was fatal
to the listener. ''he people should advise
the Government to change its course."—
Mr. Crittenden' does not believe in the
theory *at to oppose the Administration
he to oppose the Government - . •
NEGRO EQUALITY.
Fred. Douglass, (Negro) who is quite.a
favorite with a portion of the late Repub
lican party, Irks been in Philadelphia.a
few days,ago making a speech to his col
ored brethreo and those who delight to as
sociate with him and them, in which he
makes use of the following remarks,
which we copy from the "Press," As
' they are unaccompanied
,by.any comments,
according to the doctrine proclaimed oy
the Express and its correspondents, the
Press must approve of them :
"That basis is the adoption into the
great family of America of the entire negro
race. Make US, black and white. ONE.—
Give ns all the civil and political liberty en
joyed by the white people, said Mr. Douglass.
This is the only sdlid and final solution
of the negro question, The prosperity of
the nation demands this. The pegro and
the nation , must survive and perish to
gether. Save the negro, and you save the
nation. Destroy the negro,.and,y,o.u.de
stroy the nation. [Applause.] %Take the
negro into the national family, and, in that way
only can we have peace. Mr. Doutlass look
ed at this question in the lightpi abstract
justice. A nother theory, Oat of coloniza
tion, met with no endorsement either from
the speaker or the audience,
,The colon
ization scheme he held to be. little better
than a dream. How the negroes could be
got to Africa—there's the rub, and it will
continue to be the rub. [Laiviiter.] ,Af
rica was not his native country,,but the
.United States was, and here 4e would re
ma in. [A pplaused "
it is astonishing that there are.sloite
men and women who will applaud sue-h
monstrous doctrine as amalgamation.
WHO ARE THE TRAITORS ?
The abolition organ in this place, which
is owned, edited, and eontrolled by officers
and leaders of the "Union League," late
ly used the following language, and yet
has the effrontery to charge the Democra
cy with treason to the Union. Read and
be convinced:
'rim ; Union as it was, was a .cheat, a,
horrid incubus, .a devil's dream, grateful
only to the feculent imagination of the
desperate and depraved. It can never be
real ize..l.''—Johnstown Democrat.
ANOTHER SOARE AT WH:ELING.
Considerable excitement was occasioned
in Wheeling, on Saturday, by the an
nouncement that the rebel raiders had
forced northward again, crossed the North
western Branch Road from Parkersburg
to Grafton, and were snaking towards
Wheeling via Middlebourne, Tyler,coun
ty. The Ifsth Regiment of Militia was re•
assembled, and came in about eleven
o'clock with martial music and flags. It
was soon ascertained, howeNer, that the
rebels were not north of the railroad in
force. On Sunday evening reliable reports
came in that the rebels were eight hun
dred strong at isliddlebourne, on Saturday
morning, and had moved some distance
toward 'New Martinsburg. They stole all
the horses they could get, and moved to
ward Ellenboro.
FREE SPEECH
Extract from a speech delivered by Hon.
A. G. Riddle, Republican member of Con
gress from Ohio, in February last :
"The freedom of speech is the last fran
chise a free people will surrender, and oar
millions will exercise it in the midst of no
matter what ; calamities. They will dis
cuss the events and management, of the
war. It is iheir war, and the humblest
of them has an interest in it equal to that
of the first citizen, and they must and may
discuss his (the President's) acts with a
free and manly ken.
PUTTING THEM THROUGH.
The Grand Jury at the present term of
the Edgar county (Illinois) Circuit Cour t
indicted David L. Phillips, United States
Marshal for the Southern District of Illi
nois, and his deputy, and ,John J. Logan,
of Paris,,for kidnapping Amos Green, J.
W. Melia.tley, and F. A. O'Dell last sum
mer. Logan was arrested and held to
hail in the sum of $l,OOO, and the same
fate awaits Phillips and his accessors.
Ear-Young Napoleon (McClellan) is
dead—dead beyond resurrection. In the
flesh, he may still walk the earth, but in
spirit, in power, in the hope of Flory Ike is
defunct. It fo a noteworthy fact that the
ulaloos and hulabaloos over this person
have ceased in Yankee land.—Piarnona
Whig.
Just so. The abolition distwion party
of the North sends forth the howl, and its
echo comes hack from the,ir friends in the
South. Working for the same purpose
they can easily fall into one another's
views.
Owning Up.r.-The correspondent of
the New York Commercial writes to-day
that, "It is now evident tl.at General
McClellan was correct in preferring the
low lands of the tide-water regions of Vir
ginia, where the rivers furnish means of
transporting supplies, to the hilly, broken,
wooded country nearer the mountains, in
tersected by streams, which, after heavy
rains, form impassable hdrriers to an ad
vance or to a retreat."
la - Governor Cozzens, of Rhode Is
land in his Fast-day Proclamation, among
other patriotie and sensible suggestions,
adds: •
"Abd while depending on God's bless

save oUrselves from the fatal heresy of
mistaking our politics for our loyalty, our
prejudices or our self interest for justice."
