(Tlit Democrat. |||§lK i HARVEY SICKLER, Editor. TUNKHANNOCK, PA. Wednesday, l>h. 17, IS6 9. Negro Suffrage. The Harrisburg Patriot publishes the fol lowing draft of a memorial to the Legisla ture protesting against Mr. Sumner's pro posed amendment to the Constitution, au thorizing negro suffrage regardless of the well known and expressed wish of a large majority of the people of the country. We have liefore alluded to this subject, and would again urge upon the citizens of this i State the importance of moving actively to j avert the nefarious schemes of sncli fanatics as Sumner, Wilson, Butler, and other lead ing ltadieaks in Congress. Let tlu-m -rise in their plight and declare in no uncertain tone thus far shall the waves of Radicalism flow, and 110 farther. We do not believe that the people of Pennsylvania are yet ready for negro equality and suffrage, and if they would avert the pending evil they must meet the issue now, by instructing their servants in the Legislature not to ratify the amendment which is. maturing under Sumner's manipulations. In every county, city, town and village throughout the State the memorial*.hould be circulated, or something like it. and thus create a pub lic sentiment which our Legislators cannot mistake and will not dare to resist. This question is no longer one of politics, as be tween Democrats and Radicals. It presents an issue on which members of both parties can stand side by side in defence of the an cient rights and privileges of the State. It is a question of resistance to a fnrthercen tralization of power on the part of Coftgress. ! The amendment proposes to take from the States the jwover of defining the qualifica tions for franchise within their borders, and places it in the hands of an irresponsi ble set of men known as the Congress of the United States. We trust there will be a prompt awakening to the importance of this matter and a resort to the proper measures to defeat the intended usurpation of the rights of the people of Pennsylvania. The following is the form of the remon strance referred to, and should Ik* copied, universally signed, .cl sent to Harrisburg: KfMOXSTBANCE. T<> t'i' J Honorable the Senate amt House of Jiejrreseutatires of the Commonwealth of Pennsgirania, in General A ss< mbly met: The undersigned, citizens of county without distinction of party, do most re spectfully but earnestly and solemnly re monstrate against the ratification, by your honorable bodies, of the proposed amend ment to the Constitution of the United States, known as Article XV, which pro vides that "The right of any citizen of the United States to vote and hold office shall not be denied or abridged by the United States, or any State, by reason of race, or color, or previous condition of slavery of any citizen or class of citizens of the United States." We do protest against the ratifi cation of the same, for the reason that un der the Constitution, as it now stands the people of the several States have cojnplete contol over the question of suffrage, and the people have not been consulted as to whether they are willing to pari with this important privilege,and in the language of the platform upon which General Grant was elected to the presidency, we do in sist that "the question of suffrage in all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States." We, therefore, do most [ solemnly remonstrate against the ratifica tion of the proposed amendment, known ■us Article XV., bv the present Legislature. Resjiectfully submitted. * Negro Suffrage Bill. The House, it will be recollected, some days ago passed a joint resolution to give negroes the right of suffrage. That bill went to the Senate. On Tuesday last the Senate had the resolution under discus sion and passed it, after a prolonged de bate, in the following shajie: Be it resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives, Ac., two-thirds of both Houses concurring. That tlie following articles be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States, as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, either pf which, when ratified by three-fourths of said Legislatures, shall lie held as a part of said Constitution —namely : Art. 15th. Xo distinction shall be made in the United States, among the citizens of : the United States, in the exercise of the ; elective franchise, or in regard to holding j office in any State, on account of race, col- j or, nativity, property qualification or creed, j Art. ltitfi. The second clause first section, second article of the Constitution of the! United States shall lie amended to read as follows: Each State shall apjKiiut, by the vote of the people thereof qualified to vote for rep resentatives in Congress, a number of elec tors espial to tin: whole number of Senators and Representatives to which tlu* State may lie entitled in the Congress ; but no Senator or Represent.-ftive or persons holding an office of trust or profit under the United States shall Ik* appointed an elector ; and that Congress shall have power to prescribe th** manner in which such electors shall be chosen by the people. Tlu* joint resolution now goes to the House for concurrenee. JBaEj-Dr. Mudd, who was tried as an ac complice of Booth, in the murder of Presi dent Lincoln, and sent to the Dry Tortu gas for life, by the Military* Court, has l>oon pardoned. Dr. Mudd had the misfor tune to be called on by Mr. Booth, after he had committed the deed, to get his broken leg set. The Doctor performed the opera tion, without knowing how it occurred, and Booth then left, and Mudd was arrested in consequence, as an accomplice. There is a strong effort now making to get the other citizens released who were sent there by the same illegal court. General Grant's Speech Ono groat advantageof a President-elect's saying but little is that the little he does say is sure to l>e scanned with eager, curi ous attention. To meet the public inqnis itivenoss respecting General Grant. Below will Ik* found what is telegraphed from Washington as a word-for-word report of his speech in reply to the committee that delivered to him his eertitieute of election : I can promise the committee that it will be my endeavor to call around me as assis tants such men only as I think wlil carry out the principles which you have said the country desires to see successful—economy, retrenchment, faithful collection of the revenue, and payment of the public debt. If I should fail in my first choice, I shall not at any time hesitate to make a second, or even a third trial, with the concurrence of the Senate, who have the confirming power, and should just as soon .remove one of my own appointees as the-appointee of my predecessor. It would make no differ ence. There is one matter that I might proper ly speak of and that is the selection of a Cabinet, I have always felt that it would Ik* rather indelicate to announce or even to consult with the gentlemen whom I thought of inviting to positions in my Cabinet before the official declaration of the result of tlie election was made, although I presumed that there was 110 doubt about what the declaration would be. But after consideration 1 have come to the conclu sion that there is not a man in the country who could lx* invited to a place in the Cab inet without friends of some other gentle man making an effort to secure the posi tion ; not that there would Iks any objection to the party named, but there would be others whom they had set their hearts up on having in the place. T ran fell that from tlie great number of requests which come to me, in writing and otherwise, for this particular person'or that one, from different s. is dr delegations. If announced in advance, efforts would be made to change, mv determination, and therefore 1 have come to the conclusion not to announce who T am going to invite to seats in the Cabinet until I send in their names to the Senate for confirmation. If I say anything to them about it, it will certainly not Ik* more than two or three days previous to sending in their names. I think it well to make a public declaration of this to the committee, so that my intentions may IK* known. This certainly is no great display of in tellect : hut candor constrains us to say that it is no ordinary exhibition of charnc -I*l'. The man who thus quietly holds cu rious politicians at hay, and acts steadily uj'ion his own una sisted judgment, evinces a resolute self-reliance which is one of the most respectable qualities that can he pos sessed by a man clothed with great respon sibilities. His judgments may in some cases be mistaken, hut they will at least he his own. — Wufhl. A Carpet-bagger. No one will question the ability of lliin nieutt, of Virginia, to understand and de scribe a "carpet-bagger." He understands this class of persons, their habits, manners and peculiarities, as thoroughly as did Au dubon the haunts and peculiarities of the various kinds of birds. Hunnicutt has slept with the carpet-baggers, ate with them traveled, preached, prayed ami humbugged with them. He has aided them in inflam ing the passions of the negroes against the whites, and pointed out to his associates from other States the spots in Virginia where their blows could be made most ef fective. Thus posted as to the carpet-bag gers, Hie following sketch from the brush of their late comrade cannot fail to be ac cepted by the community. Elder Hunni cutt says : "A few strangers squatted in Virginia for ths whole and sole purpose of i making their living and fortunes by oftice holdiug. These men, without means, with out any established characters to recom mend them to the confidence of the people, without any employment or business to lull) build up the State in any way ; loaf ing around, prying into everybody's busi ness, having none of their own ; looking out for any vacancy of office which may be made ; trying to shove others out that they themselves may creep in ; trying to pull others down that they may go up ; trying to snatch the bread out of honest men's months that they may fill their own greenly stomachs; trying to undermine honest men's business that they may sneak into their places ; trying to crush out truth and honesty to make way for lying and rob bery. " The point and moral of this are, that the whole aim, object and purpose of the Reconstruction acts are to put South ern States into the hands and keeping of this class of persons. It may well be char acterized as a scheme to "crush out truth and honesty" and "make way for lying and rdbbfi'y." We thank thee, Hunnicutt, for teaching us that word. Pa the Taxes. • The laboring men of this nation—the tax-payers —were promised that "times should Is- easier" upon Grant's election ; that public confidence would be restored and money and lalor become abundant.— We would iisk these dupes^of Radicalism if these pledges have been fulfilled'? The money market is now so stringent that enormous lutes are paid for the use of money ; —in some cases to our knowledge twenty to twenty-five per cent. In the face of these facts our public expenditures, both State and Federal, are increasing at an alarming rate. Fraud and corruption j are more rife than ever. As illustrative of this, we would call the attention of our readers to tlie fact that the increase of the public debt in January was $15,498,456.83. Just think of this ye toil ing masses; groan and sweat under your burdens, and see the lordly boml-holder gather in his gold from untaxed bonds which he bought at a ruinous discount.— Many of you voted to continue Radicalism in power, now pay your taxes.—Ex. GOOD .FOB DINAH.—The upi>cr class nc gresses of Washington, it is said, refuses to participate in the grand inauguration ball to come off in Washington, alleging that the white women that will attend, are not respectable enough.
