The Cotoittittee also passed the following recto
iutioa unanimously, vis
Rai?hued, That it be recommended to the.
Loyal citizens of Pennaylvanii, without dis
tinction of party, to organize in each Election

pose of-sustaining the Government in stippress
lug thid causeless and wicked rebellion, which

The Changes in the:-Anifilar General,
Treasury, and Land o . llie •
To-day, the legal term of Eervice of the heads

We cannot permit the heads of these,differen
departments to retire, without thanking them,
in the name of the people, for the able and
faithful manner - in which they have, discharged
their several duties.
Hon. Thomas E Cochran; Auditor General,
•
WI had a laborious, delicate and important
term. With, the breaking out of the, war, his
labors of course increased as the expenses of the
Common'wealth were augmented. But with a
zeal that Stopped befote'no obstacles, he recr
ganised, as it were, the entire routihe of bud
'tees in his department ; so that with its increased
duties those engaged as clerks were afferdixi
increased facilities, and the public interest was
thus faithfully guarded. Mr. Cochran will, be
succeeded by Isaac Sleeker, of Union county:;
All we can now write in referemOto The newly
elected AnSitor General is to hope that he will
succeed - in giving as universal satisfaction as be

ing word of commendation. The result of his
labor while custodian of the public funds, ex
presses that approval better than it can be done
in mere words. He has managed the• State
finances with the success 'of 'an able financier,
not only assisting in meeting•the enormous de : ,
mends which have of late been made on the
treasury of the State, but so ,arretting our
resources as to be enabled to iedtide tfib'State,
debt many hundreds of thous a nds of . d r p i lit h nli.‘
Such a record is- moremubstantial- than news
paper praise. If the. successor of Mr. Moore
does aa*ell, land we have every reason to be
that he w his retirement from, will
bring to him as much ,pleasure as his induCtion

The vituperative portion of that synopsis w,t4
Te printed in the Tory Organ, with great pl. ade
and that gusto with which it always assists in
the perpetration of a Luella act. At the time
the extract of this speech appeared in the 7Lry
Organ, we were certain that the sentiments
imputed to Col. M'Clure were never conceived
much less expressed' by that gentleman ; and
in order to satisfy ourselves as to the correct
ness of our estimate of the patriotism and loyal
ty of the man, we wrote to him for the denial
we were certain would come, to overwhelm
these shameless coppeiheads with disgrace. We
append an extract from Col. M'Clure's reply to
our enquiry on this subject :
**eke , coo
You were doubtless surprised to find the
Patriot and Union refer approvingly to a speech
I made recently before the Union League here.
I assure you that you could not have been more
surprised than I .was, for Ihave, yet to-utter
any sentiment relating to the Administration or
the war, that could merit the mord' than doubt
ful commendation of that, paper,
I did state in the course of the speech referred
to, that the masses of the Democratic party
were loyal at heart, and would so act, but for
their disloyal leaders. This sentiment ; was so
perverted by the Spirit that I have bedn com
pelled to duffer the fatal approbation of seidral
copperhead jOurnale;#
When I cannot cordially act with the Union
men, tad subordinate everything to the lifa of
the Republic, rshall at least preserve my man:
hood by openly declaring for the rebel cause
'and ask to be sent beyond the Union lines. No
traitor should live amongst loyal men to impair
these efforts, to obstruct the executicn of tt e
fawe, and to betray the cause of the Govern
ment bY eowardly treachery. And until I be
come traitor myself, (which can only be in some
starless midnight of the mind,) my whole efforts
shall be given to an unreserved sue tort of the
Administration in its struggle to preseive our
free institutions- He who now &Herrin his
support of the Administration, whatever may
be blignere.Political opinions, falters in his ft
delityla the Republic.'
.- rr We leave the Tory Organ to the digestion of
the aikvie r as a lair sample of the feelings which
control not tilone the prominent, but the most
humble men in the ranks of the - Union Republi
can party of Pennsylvania. Let the vipers who
distil their venom through they columns 11 that
sheet, act with the spirit expressed by Col. M.%
Clure. Let them show their manhood'by asking
to be sent beyond the Union lines,. and not re
main here where they can play traitors without
incurring any of the punishments provided for
those guilty of treason.
Who Was isirisvor of Compromise.
_ The political enemies of the Republican party
have made it a standing charge that it was op.
posed to a fair compromise of the d'fferences
!Sting at the outbreak of the rebellion, and is
iheiefore responsible for the war. It matters
not that the leaders among the rebels have
themselves exploded-,the accusation repeatedly
and effectually by declaring that at, the time
they wanted ntiedinpromiie,Whuld have entered,
linto none ; in fact, that if' a blank sheet of pa
, Per had been offered them upon which to write
Aheir owe conditions, they would , have rejected .
ii,theC'harge his been reiterated as often as
opportunity has effer4. IA view of this fact,
David Dudley.Fieldi.of :New York, has recent
ly done an excelleut thing, in the effectual ex
14es .the falsity of the accusation alluded to.
He .was a member of the Peace Congress that
•niet;in Washington city in. February, 1861,:
from l thichationg hopes of some accommoda
tiompihickwonld avert war were at one time
entertained, and his afateraeats go to the pro.
ceedings of that body, which was compbsed of
representatives from rather the more conserva
tive
elements of the South. If anything like
a . reasonable adjustmentof.differences were pos
sible, it is fair to infer that it could have Seen
bad there—at least so far as the disposition of
the South was favorable to it. Mr. Field first
submitted the following :
' 'The Union , of thtt States under the Consti
tution isindissoluble; and no Suite •can secede
frowthe Union; or nullify an: act of Congress,
Or absolve its rcitizens from their, paramount
Obligation of obrdienca to the Constitution and
laws of the United States."
This was laid on the table by the majority
kr. Fieldthen proposed the following : .
•uit is believed to be. the true intent and
meaning of the present Constitutiou that the
Union .of r the States, under it, is indissoinble,
This was rejected by the "Coneervatives.".
Governor Boger S. Baldwin,. (Republican,) of
glonnectieut , ,uthen-submitted the following:
" 41 *.githaili,,Unnappy differences exist which
lave agemtOd from each other portiord of the
Napje : of v the Oniteriltatea, to such an extent
as serionaly tn disturitthe peace of the nation

Republicans, it being the same as that rejected
to the bitter end by the Democrats of the free
States at the Charleston Convention. When it

UPS whatever. In the Senate, Mason and
Hunter of Virginia, Green of Missouri, and
Lane of ,Oregon, denounced it,; and when it
was put to the vote, only three Benators out of
thirty-seven gave their voices in its favor. In
the House its fate was scarcely 'better. This
sheicart conclusively how far the Republicans, or
in fact any party of the North, were responsible
for a failure to compromise at the time the war
of dissdlation began.

DRAKE'S PA LENT CHURN' POWER!!
Patented July 8, 1862.
.
A NUCH lat:or "and. ingenuity have been ex
j.YJLpended in efforts to reduce the labor, time
and tronble of chin ning milk and cream to pro
duce butter. The old method of churning by
handr equirei so much time and labor that resort
has been had to various machines propelled by
dogs, sheep, calves, &c. for the purpose • of sav
ing this time and labor. But the nwonve
nit= and 'unpkasanfsters arising from the pee of
these animals as a propelling power are such as
to render Any improvement which will obviate
the necessity of their use a great desideratum.
After placing the milk in the churn, it is
only'becteasary to wind inp the weight by mans
of the crank, which can 66 done in from two
to three minutes, and the machine will run
thirtY minutes without re-vtioding, when, if
thb churning is not finished, it can be re -wound.
I .This l power can be so regulate.! as to propel a
Chu any size, Trom one quarter of a barrel
to` irels.
t
out any change in the machinery, a
child from eight to ten years of age, can, by
means of a lever atkached to the fly-wheel, re
verse the motion, *dud np the machine in ten
minutes, churning at the same time with-a
barrel churn; and then, by letting go the lever,
the motion again reverses, and-the weight runs
down, continuing . the operation for twenty
minutes lger at a slower rate, thus fi nishing
tho churnnig ond gathering the butter in , the
'brit' Manner.
The grand-object of all machinery is to save
time, iiisd the proprietor of-this Machine claims
glint superiority for it in this respect. Mowing
machines and Ahreshing machines will save
from Orietundredto two hundred per cent. in
time,-while this machine will Have from twdvs
'hundred to fourtrea hundred per cent.,as will be
- seen` by 'a simple , •arithmetical cal culation on
what has already been shown. , Iwo "inures'

• . This power'', can be.operated In three differ-1
ent ways : ~,..., , ~,,,
let. By. means of a= crank to wind.
2nd. By a lever attached...to a fly-wheel,
which winds and churns at the same time.
-,
3d.. By's leaver at fly-wheal without winding
or weight. .. • • ,
1 The machine is so constructed that it
occupies a space of only four feet by tw) feet,
and. is placed in the room where the churning
is done; and it is frequently.. the.case that
"washing is done in the samerootn. In allsnch
'easesit can be used also to pound out clothes,
which is a much moreeconomlcal mode of wash
