At Their Old Tricks Again When Buchanan in 1857-58 undertook to change the principles of the Democratic party and commit them to the eupp:rt of slavery', bribery, corruption and public pat ronage were resorted to,and he found but lit tle opposition among tho leaders, office holders and office-hunters of the old organ illation, and was enabled to increase the aumbormaterially in the Middle and South ern States from the dissatisfied money and power-loving adherents of tho old Whig party; and when a paper refused to sup- Jon WM it was bought out and placed in the' hands of a renegade who, without either character or talents, was ready and willing to ampt of a bribe, and, if nerd .bit v publish hislown.ehame and disgrace in the columns of the paper superintended but not onirolled by him. Having secured the leaders with the tarty organisation, it was still a trait he .was not capable of performing—to Demi pate his own successor and elect him; but be induced a large portion of his followers to yule for u• man that he must ha- e known was at the very time plotting treason against the Constitution. Dexocratio leaders and papers are a purchasable commodity and not very high in price to start with, but exceedingly expensive to keep. After the results of the experiment of Buchanan & Co., ono would naturally sup pose that a sufficient length of time would be allowed to elapse to permit their evil deeds, to be , partially forgotten at least be fore another attempt of the arme kind would be made; but, judging from our ex ' thatiges, the same men who ruined the old Democratic party are again at the same kind of trick.: Why, is not so easy to explain, 'unless it is !or want of capacity to invent 'another and better one. The Johnson club in loran the President. We do.not complain of that. Then all the little whiffets of the Democratic party take op the endorsement and at the same time continue the same whining snarl against every man who has been appointed by the President who favors the eleotioa of Gen. Geary as Governor of Pennsylvania. Can - not a man approve of the acts of President Johnson, or at least ot tho majority of them, for instance, his speeches in favor of emancipation,'punishment of assassins, his conduct of the Freedmen's Bureau, his cir cular in favor of the appointment of ,sol diers to office and many other things he has done, and still advo.:ate the election of Gen. Gamy. Surely, Clymer nor his platform are not the , choice of the President ; and if Geary is not then no candidate new be- Jere the people is. And we have a right to ohoose between the two without render ling any offence to the Prosident—partiou -Italy when our choice falls on a soldier— one of the class who was so strongly urged for dim RIOT IN Minims, tz ot,—Thero was a leriotte riut in Memphis between whit3s ind . ' blanks, commencing on tho Ist inst. and continuing until the 3d, and in which i tiwenty-five'or thirty negroes were killed, aid' their school-houses, churches and direllinge burned. It is said to live.origi wated on account of a quarrel between a col-red and a white eartman. But it is :DiTIOUII that this was merely the occasion `:sad not the cause of the trouble. Does a Street fight ia Allentown, or Reading, or 'Philadelphia, whatever the color of the somtuttaote, sprawl through an entire cota , suuttityi and lead to a score of troubles, nod the burning of dwelling houses, school houses and churches ? Tho truth of the IDStter is too obvious for question. The sinie 'spirit that led the Southern people into insurrection and rebellion, the hatred of an oppressed lace, and rage at seeing them in the partial enjayment of theiraights have long been rankling in the hearts ot _ the majority of the population of Memphis. - The Indulgence of the government towards traitors , of every degree seems to have kit,- dled thesis instincts into deeper intensity. Surely, we need no further evidence to convince us of the real animus of this no _ .tottunste,riet than the fact that every schwa. tomb and dutch and many dwelling houa iie ot the blinks were burned to the ground. 'Yet whet had churches and school houses to, do in quelling a riot and keepiog the petioe of the city. And did the blacks re. .;taliste by firing churche school houses and dirdlings 1' Not at all. They herein showed mush mare magnanimity and for ,. bearsuce than their white assailants. 0a . : i3.oLDitl3n ' STATE CONVENTION.— A. call :pUbliShed in our columns for a State jappvention ot Union.

We hope our Soldier's'will so , Lehigh is fti ly represented op ietil Democracy and Rebel Officers. It will be remembered that James Bu chanan went to Harrisburg and bal d a levee shortly aftei"':,tite nomination of',Hiester Cllymer for Governor.. From whatlbas transpired it appear. that the proprtoty; ol procuring the eervieee of is many promi nent rebel Generals as possible to take the stump, was ono rf the plans proposed and accepted. The old public funotionary had his circulars prepared' and sent out; but few responses have as yet been receis , rt— One which has appeared in the papers is cry severe up( n the lip service and empty left EBiooll of the craven-hearted brawler, (Clymer) and tells theold man, in plain terms, that if the Democracy of Penns, I vania had possessed the courage of the sew York rioters in 1863, when they met tt Harrisburg in that year in the face of Jee's army, the South Might have succeed d in compoLing the government at Wa.h7 ngton. to sue for peace, and enabled them o make J. fferson Davie President, ants eeenando Wood Vice President. But now t is too late ; all is lost, including con& demi° in men who have violated theiroaths and fixed the stamp of porjuiy upon their soils. There can be no doubt that the plan of the Duchanan-Breckinridge Democracy was to get up aid and assist the people of the South in overturning the Constitution and oeolaring in favor of a dictator, and finally ending in a monarchy, with titles of nobil ity founded on wealth and political services rendered, which required the sacrifice of honor, character and trust. Ilene° their resolutions at every township and county meeting, State and National convention, in opposition to the measures adopted to com-. pel the people of the Southern States to obey the laws; and their vile ca'umny and vituperation of every man engaged in the service of his country in subduing rebels. They aro consistent in only one thing, that is, in the candidates fbr office. 1860 they ran a traitor for President, and over since that time they have solectcd as their candidates men who were in full sym pathy and accord with traitors for every of fice, groat or small, Clymer has never said one word against the men who wore engaged in the rebellion, but always spoke and acted as their friend and a'ly. Not a ward of en couragement ever fell from his lips in favor of Union soldiers and officers, but invaria bly abuse and mum. If Pennsylvania had followed Mr. Cly mer's load; if she bad adopted the line of policy he mapped out and pertinaciously ri commended ; not only wculd her territory been overrun, her fieldsolaid waste, her towns given to the names, and her railroads torn up, but the government would have been so pale pied that theplion would have been lost. It absolutely monstrous to talk of electing such a man to the Chief Magistracy of the State. There ought to be such a sentiment among the masses of the people as would make his aspirations hopeless, as would consign hint to private walks for the remainder of his days. Tha there is such a• sentiment among Repubh inns we feel and know. The people have to choose between a gallant soldier, who freely perilled everything for the cause, and a politician who did all he could to serve the rebel leaders. The Danger of Speedy Restoration Our population is perhaps 80,000,000; of this population about 5,000,000 are dis loyal. This disloyal poiulation, when u'- ly restored to the Union, the Constitution and the laws remaining unamended, will hold more than one-third of its representa tive power, and the supreme ecntrol of at least thirteen States. These disloyal States will be interested to use that power for the division of the Union ; and, failing in that for the rep'idiation of the military and II uncial obligations of the country. Now, what is to he done I Ir these states are denied representation, it violates the fundamental principle of republican government. If allowel a double and bee. tile representation, the Union itself must bo destroyed or preserved at the expense of another war. The President insists that the rebellious States be admitted immediately with a dou. blo representation and without guarantees ; that all the barriers which his predecessor and Congress have hereto:ore erected to pro tect the country and the loyal people, shall be thrown aside, and endeavored to force views upon Congress and the peoplo,wheth er they approve of them or not. Congress has said "lot us stop to consid er, and endeavor to find a remedy." Three remedies wore proposed : 1. Disfranchise some portion of the rebels ; 2. Allow all he rebels to vote, but neutralize their dis union sentiments by enfranchising the blacks in those States; 3. Equaliz3 repre entation by taking as its basis either the number of voters, or the population minus the disfranchised classes; so that these States shall have no more representation in proportion to their represented people than the old free States have. After a fu'l and free discussion, Congress has oonoluded to recommend the first I.nd thi•d propositions as an amendment to the Constitution. The first proposition was in corpo:ated at the carin.at solicitation of the Union Men of Maryland, West Virginia, Missouri, Tennessee, et.t. : and is in Jut al ready a law in those States. Now, then if the rebel States are noxious to be represented in Congress, they have only to subscribe to these colditioos. We Ann afford to be magnanimous, but wo must also be just to ourselves ; and in proposing , his simple and equitable solution of thi question, Congress has faithfully reflected be sentiments of the people. se- A meeting oi tuu Utllkßl State Cen tral Committee will bo held at the Nation- Unicn Club Rooms, in Philadelphia, of the 16 h of the present m.mth.

It these "living heroes" aro to be "rewarded, 4 then it follows, as a ma - - ter of course, that our living heroes, the "boys in blue," aro to be correspondingly disparaged. After these rebel heroes arc "rewarded" with pensions, etc., it would only bo a step turther to advocate the re pudiation of the national debt and the as sumption of the rebel debt ; for it follows, as a natural consequence, that it these "liv ing haves" arc to bo "rewarded" for mak ing war upon the Government, it also 11.1- lows that the debt they incurred in their undertaking should be paid Another plank might be added, that the "h cmane" rebels who starved lee maltreat- ed our prisoners, o or other tokens ol'approval for their service's CONFESSION! Anton Probst, the murderer ot the Deer ing family, confessed to his spiritual advi ser that ho had no accomplice in the late bloody tragedy, but that he committed the eight murders himself. lie says he murdered the toy Carey first, and then , enticed all the others, one at a time, to the barn and murdered them by hitting them on their heads with an axe and cutting their throats. Miss Dolan was the last. She came to the barn in search of the family, when she shared their terri ble fate. Probst says ho found very little money, but ho expected a considerable amount.— He says he attempted to kill the boy three Limes, but his heart failed him; but when he finally . killed him the sight of the blood, ho says, produced in him a devilish feeling and he resolved to murder the whole fam ily. His confession relieves the question of all its doubt, but throws no new light upon the horrible details already published. On Wednesday morning the Sheriff re ceived the death warrant from Harrisburg, r.nd read it to the prisoner, informing him that the time fixed fur his execution is Friday, the Bth of Juoo, between the hours of 10 A.

THE POINT.—The issue, alter all, in this state is so simple that no honest Union man eon mistake ii. Is there ono Union man who is willing, considering the recent record of the cop perhead party, to trust them with the goy. ernment ? It is not a question in this elec tion, what measures shall the Union party pursue, but shall there be any Union party, and shall it rule, or shall it surrender to those who have fought the Government of the United 'States for five years ? During the war, wo constantly differed on measures,but stoutly stood by the Union. We have yet to see ono ream advanced why the copperheads nro fit to have power. TUE STATE OAMPAIGN.—In a few weeks the Gubernatorial campaign in this State will open in earnest. From al sections of the interior we have reports of tha most capital feeling on the part of cur friends. and a determination to sweep the State for Geary with overwhelming majorities. Col Frank Jordan, the chairman of the State Central Executive Committee, is now in Philadelphia, and has established his head quarters at the National Club. He is ac tively engaged in organizing the campaign. and with the perfect unanimity that pre vails throughout the rank and file of th, Union party in the State, there can bo n. reason to doubt that a glorious victory the friends of the Union iu the Keystone 3tate. The House of Representatives has adopt ed, by tho decisive vote of 128 to 37, the report of the Committee on Reconstruction £his remarkable unanimity of the Union early will have a cheering effect upon the nountry, and will go far to secure the adop don of the proposed plan of adjustment 1:), the Senate and the State Legislature.

Will the gentleoun armed rake notice that "an earthquake is coming," or must they be hustled out. MESSRS EDITORS: The above is from last week's Allentown Democrat. Did impudence and assurance over equal this? When out country's destiny was vibrating—aye, when the keenest vision foiled to see how thin glo !was fabric, reared by Christian sages in be half of humanity, could withstand the sheek ; when every knee that will bend in solitude was , bowed to implore Ilim who alone decider with justice; when every noble spirit in the land laid aside all—Leone, friends, party pre judices—and rushed to the strife fur the pur pose of preserving those eternal principles of Right which were transmitted to us all by our fathers; when nearly every household was a place of mourning for the lost loved ones—l say when all these things took place, hut a few years ago, where was the Democratic party 7 Catalina had hie adherents • so had Nero, and so had every scoundrel that ever yet disgraced humanity. How could the slave holders rebellit n fail to haye them ? Every one calling himself a Democrat sympathized, aided and abetted it. A defeat of our bravo army, so long as led by traitors, was to them an occasion of joy and mirth ; but when suc cess crowned the bravery of our noble officers and soldiers ; when It became evident that the accursed rebellion must fall, they went into their holes,'and it' they did slimy themselves, they looked like whipped spaniels, and ho. frayed evident signs that they comprehended their degredation. If they knew now, they certainly would have prayed that our brave soldiers might all be killed ; but they neither knew how to pray, nor was there a God—even in the follies of heathen mythology—who could have an attribute to favor such a cause as this. And it is such who talk and advise about the removal of " disloyal" men front office ! So far as I know, every one of these offwere stood firm, when firmness was of some account When those who would advise their removal would have prayed, if they could, for the de struction of tho country, these men, now tt ho ousted; had Ifni: whole soul in the contest lam not their apologist. If I knew but a single, solitary Democrat that sided with hie country in its peril, I would be pleased to see him bait° his re sant ; but I know none. Therefore, if these officers do their duty, I am for having them retained. If they do not, I would advise them discharged and others put in their places. But nu circumstance could make me sanction the appointment of my ono to any office, who forsook his coun try in her hnnr of need. These craven things it is impossible to class them as men.
