SUBSCRIBED FOR IN CLUBS. 07 NOT LESS
THAN TEN cams TO ' ONE ADDRESS!
We have been compelled
. to raipe the club subscription
price to one dollar and fifty centi in order to save our
selves froth &Anil loss: Paper has risen, including
taxes, about twenty-dim per cant, and is etill'ilsing ;
and when we tell our DesnocratioPtends, candidly, that
we can no longer afford to sell - the WaeklyirEntrOvAlin '
Union at ane dollar a year, and must add fifty canto or/
step the publication, we trust they will appreciate oar
position, and, instead of withdrawing their subscrip
tions, go to work with a will to increase our list In 0-Very
eosnty . in the State. We have endeavored , and shall
continue our efforts., to mike the paper useful sea ' party
organ, eind,welanne sa a news messenger to every fam
ily. We flatter ourselves that , it has not been withoist
some influence in producing the glorious revolution in
the politics of the State achieved at the late election ;
and'if. fearlessness in the diecharge of duty, fidelity to
the.princfples of the party, and an anxiousdeaire to pro
mote its Interests, with come experience and a moderate
d e gree of ability, can be made serviceable hereafter, the
Weekly PATRIOT AID llriea will not be lees useful to
the party or ben welcome to the family circle in the !a
ttire than it has been in the past. We confidently look
for increased encourssiement in this great enterpriee,
and appeal to every influential Democrat intim State'to
lend us his aid in running our sipsoription list up to
twenty or thirty - thousand. The expense to each JO
vidnal is trifling, the benefit to the party may be great.
Believing that the Democracy of the State feel the nil.
mislay of stustaining a fearless central organ, we make
this, appeal to them for MOIRIMAICO 'with the fullest eonfi
deuce of success. .
the same reasons which induce , ue to raise the price
oithe Weekly, operate in regard to the Daily paper, the"
o'lo3' of which iA also increaaed; the additional costto ,
each'subscriber will be butlriiiing; end; while We eaur
not:perms/hi ourselves that the change necesearily made
hill resilt In any illutinutirt. of DDT dail7 eirou4slioD;
yet, were' we certain that such would be thi canoe
gents, we should itill be co" raPeliet to makelt; or. euf
far a ?ninon* less. , Under" thate circumatances we must
throw ourealves 'upon the generosity, or, rather, the
justice of the public, and abide their verdict, whatever
it may be.
, •
The period for which many of our subscribers have
paid for their paper being on the eve of expiring, we
take the liberty of taming this notice, reminding theio
of the came, in order that they may
.
RENEW THEIR . CLUBS.
We shall also take it as an especial favor if our pyre=
subscribere will urge upon their neighbors the feet that
the PATRIOT AND UNION is the oily Demme:ratio paper

On the Joint Reeoiation tendering the nee of the Beasts
Ohainber to sz-!Governors Johnson and Wright.
Mr. kriAgetta •On this day, at this hour, in
this place, iv-lite:it issue is on trial, fraught
with the interests; not-only of the present, but
of the futuiti;. and, if, I, in the decision of this
issue,'have actild a part, however unimportant,
I shall hereitteilook back to this day, to this
hour and telkis ilace, with feelings of no little
- - • '
.The issue involved is not one of persons; it
is one of high principle going back to the foun
dations of this Government. It is, "
sir, whe
ther the loyalty of the citizen is to be judged
of by his fealty and adherence to an addinis
tration; or whether it is to be determined by
his fealty and adherence to the Government of
the United States.
In order to decide this question,, it is neces
sary to present this brief exposition of the
situation of affairs—that without a Constitu
tion there could have been no Government and
no Union, and that unless there is fealty and
adherence to that Constitution, there can be no
true loyalty to the Government and Union based
on it. That is the issue. to be tried to-day.
Disguise it as you iiai--attempt to confuse it
for pity purposes, party reasons, and .by
party :Chicanery—the issue presented by every
„Republican Senator who has preceded Me in
this discussion . , is that my loyalty is to be
tested, not, by any adherence and devotion to
the Constitution of the United States, but by
my adherence to the adminiatration of Abraham
Lincoln, the present occupant of the Presiden
tial chair !.!
I Day to you, sir, I lay to every Senator,
say it tb the people whom I represent, I say it
to the people of this State, that there is ,no
such testaknown.to the Constitution, nor to any
tribunal.before which 1,.y0n, they or any one
can ever be . summoned to simmer. I repeat it
'that the Goirernment; is founded upon the Con 7
, stitutiOn ; .that the 'administration is a mere
creature of that Conseituticin and that. Gover
nment ; and that where, in defiance of thatdon
stitutiOn and the Government erected upon it,
an''adniinistration strays from its principles—
strays from the .patitWays cut by our ances
tors through the rock of uncertainty and dan
ger—then he is only a truly loyal Man who uses
every effort to bring back the administration
to the old beaten path which avOies the dan
gers of fanaticism and error. That is the ques
tion:to Abe tested here and now, in the vote upon
this resolution. That is the question to be
decided.; and the people of this State, outside
of' these halls, will so consider it; and I now,
as heretofore, appeal to the people from whom
springs. all power to sustain me, and those who
may vote with me in deciding this question as
be i st befits our judgment under our, oaths.
What is the qtzesti... presented? his a pro
.cat u or eel tAsokhS they " -
people of Pennsylvania from the. Senate cham
ber of this State.. I have various reasons for
opposing this proposition. In the first place,
I here boldly proclaim that he is not at this
hour and never has been, by the Constitution•
or under the latvs, the Governor of tho State
of Tennessee, except when years ago he was
elected to that office by the people. I say,
sir, that his appointment by the Prdsideneof
the United States . to that position was a near
.pation of power on the part of the President,
and that fleet° is no warrant under the Coned-
tution, no authority, in the laws for his ap
pointment ; end that every act which he has
assumed to iterforna by virtue of his unconsti
tutional and illegal appointment has been in
derogation of the rights of a sovereign State,
and ie flat violation of the Constitution of the
United Staims: I say, sir, furthermore, that
no euth position as Military Governor of a
State is izutown to the Constitution of the
TJrnitof Stat4e—that there is ,nothieg in that
instreinent which authorizes the Provident of
the Isited States to appoint a Military, Gov
erno4f any State—and that to make such an
appoittment was to create the State of Ten.
mania military province—and that his ap
pointient was made to carry out and subserve
the p.rposes .of the present adminismtion,
witiotis to reduce all time States of this Union
to tar condition of mere dependencies of a
conspidated oligarchy or, despotism. That is
my psition, so far as concerns this pretended
Governor of Tennessee. Andrew Johnson hag
not c ten for years, and is not now, the Gov
ern of that State 1 and I will never recognize
him it such, by voting for this resolution. But,
sir, -Aleut regard to say question of his offi
cial mition, take Andrew Johnson as an indi
-1 ridtl, assuming that he is rightfully clothed
withhe robes of office, and may constitution
ally troise the duties of that high. position ;
eve hen, I say to you, Mr. Speaker, that I
nett by my vote will allow a man to come into
thehalts and from this place speak to the
li
pen of this great State in support of *hat I
kno to be illegal, unconstitutional and tyran
nictocts of the Federal Government. I know,
at Andrew Johnson has gone as far as the
st, and is ready to go still fnrther, to de
to uproot, to upturn every principle up
doh this great and good government of
was founded. I know that hie has bent
suppliant knee before the throne of power;
w that, for pelf or some other consiciera

Mr. LOWRY. Is not the man of whom the
Senator speaks a disloyal man ? •
Mr. CLYMER. The people of Indiana have
sent him to the united States Senate, and you
dare deny or question the choice of a sovereign
State. But, sir! who is the individual whose
name we ask shall be embraced in this resolu
tion ? Who is he *horn we would ask 'to 'come
here and receive the hospitalities of this State ?
Ile who next to him who was "fire' in war d
first in peace - and first in the hearts of his
countrymen," is the people's . idol—be who
amid doubt and gloom, upon more than one
occasion, has rescued order from anarchy:--he
:who upon more than one occasion has been the
means of saving this governnient—he who has
the great heart of the greatest army upon this
continent throbbing every day, every hour,
every moment in unison with his own—MAJOR
GEN. GEO. B. MIOLELLAN !! ! He, sir, has
been denied the hospitality of a Legislative
body in which you Republicans have a majority.
You will not vote to tender him those hospi
talities—and why ? Because he too is anointed
not only by the voice- of the great people, lint
by the adoration of the hearts of the Army of
the Potomac. Yon will not pass such a reso
lution if his name is to be included. No, you
who have the power now for a few months or
years will not sanction anything that savors of
what the people desire. You are determined
that they never shall be seen, never heard.—
That is the determination which you are acting
out here and elsewhere. I. tell you, sir, that
those who have been disrobed and disownediby
the people, Who are the mere minions of exec
utive power, and who submit to the subversion
of the people's rights and liberties, I never will
consent shall speak from your chair to the
people of this State—never, sir, never

experience in this hall extends back to a period
commensurate with my own, that
.I am not in
the habit of wandering from the particular'
subject before the Senate to introduce general
issues and extended arguments. But, Or, this
debate has been far diverted from the original
question. It has embraced all the subjects
that could agitate the public mind at this time.
If it had even rested there, I should have re
mained content,. But gentlemen upon this
floor have chosen to single me out amongst the
Democratic Senators here—and refer to the
probable results of my action upon my own fu
ture. 7, air, am an individual—indiViduals as
compared with 'principles and great results are
nothing. Principles and truth are eternal.—
Man is mortal and goes to his kindred duet ;
but if, sir, in his person, in hid Cats in public
or in private life, he represents truth, he re
presents principle-if when power, passion or
prejudice threaten to destroy the rights of the
people, he dare stand up in defence of them,
he may die, he may go to his fathers blessed or
unblessed: A Hampden and others have illus
trated this. They have gone down in gloom ;
but they are now held up in , brightness and in
glory ; and, sir, no matter what may becema of
me in regard to this day's action, I know' that

I might in this connection repel—repel andig
nantly,repel with truth—the assaults that hitve
been attempted to be made upon the great party
with which I have the honor to act. You, sir,
were here in . April, 1861; you will recollect that
when the first gun was fired upon Fort. Sumpter,
that, that one- shot fused the great heart of the
people of this State and presented it as a wail
of adamant against rebellion and treason at the
S ou th. You know that without stint, without
measure, that great heart, Democratic and Re
publican, poured out everything for a common
purpose. You recollect that in July, 1801,
when we had been defeated upon the plains of
Bull Run, when, the army of the Republic came
into Washington with tattered banners ' • when
there was fear and dismay there, here ar il else
where; when the Repuinie was tottering and
the President was almost a suppliant fur his
place, you know there wen no division of son
timmt or feeling. You further know• that in
the Congress of the United States, on the 22d
of July. after . that defeat, a resolution was of
fered defining and setting forth the objects of
the struggle. You . know , that that' revolu
tion was adopted by a nearly unanimous
vote. You know that in that hour of fear
and dismay, of trial and of .dangett, that re
, solutiou came as the seine of hope teem. Heaven.
It reassured the people ; it told them that
this was to be no visionnry, no fanatical strug
gle ; but it was to be - pursued for the pur
pose of sustaining the Constitution and resto
ring the Union of our fathers, and that when
this object should be attained, peace would
reign once more. Inatome the result? From
the disorganized, helpless and beaten materials
of that army, ha brwhom it is asked to-day to
invite t• the capital of his own State, and to
whom that boon is denied by Republican Sena
tors, seised hold of those' discordant materials,
and with the hand and mind of genius prepared
them again to go upon the onenty. I will nee
trace his history. It is written imperishably
'upon the annals of the past; and it will shine
in those of the future. But I will turn for; a
nomad to a period a year later, when another
disaster met our arms on• the same field a and
when the panic-stricken President and his ad
vieera again crouched withfear withitithe.walls
of Washinton, when they felt that the Goths
and Vandals were at their gates, when they
wereproviding for flight to some spot of safety,
and when they felt that power and plane was
vanishing. Again in palsied fear they appealed
to him whom for party purposes they had de
graded, and again, like a true patriot, like one
wive never acts from sordid or improper mo
tives, he assumed the command of that routed
and demoralized army, and in less than three
weeks he had again organized it and had com
menced the pursuit of the common enemy across
the hills of Maryland and into a plain where
Many of those who now•hear me met the ene
miles of their country face to face. What did
he do ? A second time he saved the Republic—
he saved it by snatching victory out of the very
jaws of defeat, and I now place upon record the:
universal , sentiment of every man who served
under him, that if it had not been for the con
fidence of the army of the Potomac in General
Iti'Clellan, 'Pennsylvania would have suffered
an invasion which would have been destine,
tive to the life and property of her. people ;
and yet Senators refuse to receive the' protec
tor and defender of the State in the halls of her
Capitol: But what is the subsequent history
of this matter ? Shattered and, broken, ' his
legions lay awhile for rest, to beAlothed, to be
fed, to be restored to their wonted vigor'; and
then again he was in pursuit Ot . that enemy
whom he had met' at Antietam and at South
Mountain, and defeated. But, sir, when he was
about to strike his blow, he was again pursued
by the miscreants who wished to divert this
war from the purposes set forth in the resolw;
tion of July,, 1801, and dragged down from his
position as commander of the 'army. - He 'left

Mr. Speaker, it may be proper for me at
this time to state what I believe to be the pur
poses of the great party with which I have the
honor to act. In the worde of anther, irhe
from his exalted position has a. rightto.speak,
I will tell you "that the Democratic party has
never agreed, does not now agree; and halt no
intention of agreeing in future, to a, dissoln
tion of the American Hnion ;" and I will , say
to you further, that 'we propose to accomplish
the preservation of the government and" the
Constitution by the union of the sword' with
the olive branch. For those who will realist. the
power of the government—aot the power of
the administration, not its unconstitutional acts,
but the power of this government rightfully
administered' under the Constitution—we lave*
the sword. Per those who are willingto sub
mit to its benign, its healthful and its peace
' ful sway, we will hold out the olive branch of
peace. And here I will say to. you, sir, (and
.in saying it I feet that I express the .opinion
of the great Democratic party of this ''State,)
that we believe, and will ever believe; that the
laws which have been passed by the 'Congress
, just ended—the confiscation and .other nets
which have steeled the heart of the people of
' the Soutir—there it ao such thing 40 a Woe
man left in those States now engaged'itirebel

the heart of that people by repealinglour
unjust, your unconstitutional laws; and, when
it is melted,: we espept oat ed .- that beak to
bring police and happiness to the people North
and South. 'We sayto. you, Mr. Speaker, that
' we do not believe it is in the power'df twenty
millions of men to subdue and bring batik that
people, unless you have among them alliee who
are attached to . your cause, devoted te e the
principles of the' Constitution, and its' guilian
tees, and desiring its protection—that,yon cam
never, never exterminate or subjugate theta.
Hut we tell you, sir, , that if you will do only
what the Constitution and the principles Fring

valley there will be raised - op allies for pug as

power may be agaiust us, but when the people
of the South, recollecting the glories "Of hhe

that every right is.tube guaranteed, every pri
