Geary, OF CUMBERtANDCOCNTY. The Davis-Leo Organ and the Fenians The wire-pullers of the Davis and Lee crgans aro terribly excited about the prospects °flips• ing a few votes through the, actions of their pet President in relation .to the Fenians, having un dertaken the job of sustaining Johnson, as the always did men who were recreant to the dutie they had assumed, and the greater that recre ancy and the stronger the vindictive feeling. exhibited, the louder they would blow it. its praise: They can't help it. Every man of any pretension among their leaders js of the same stripe from their candidate for Governoi down to the scribbler for their treason-approv ing and traitor-defending organ. They hay( used that class of our citizens, now known as Fenians, for years to perpetuate slavery, and foster a set of proud aristocratic monarchists in our midst, until they thought themselves sal ciently-strong to do, away with the Constitution and set up a Government for themselves, em bracing their peculiar autocratic ideas, entirl' antagonistic to the i terests of the majority of the people of the Country. They also used them to obtain and maintain a system of free troth intended for the benefit of the merchant prince. of Europe, and British gold has been freely dis tributed year after year for that Furpose, very effect of which . has been to deprive them of the opportunity of obtaining steady employ ment, and when they were employed, it was a reduced prices. The system of slavery, whirl they so long maintained, was calculated to re duce the laboring white men to a level with tin slave, by compelling him to work for paupei wages. Free trade and slavery combined, bold ly advocate the exportation of our agriculture products to Europe at an enormous expense for transportation, to feed the manufacturers there, and the importation of the manufactured adj• cies intci this country for consumption, thus leaving our entire population to become agri culturalists or the meanest patch-work mechan ice. This system has boot advocated I.y the now Democratic leaders year after year, and is still persisted in through their free trade seek ties all over the country, headed by jobbing agents of EuroPean manufacturers and sustain • ed British gOld. There is at this time no doubt but that Bellmont and other members of the English moneyed aristocracy, own mid control the Democratic party. Irishmen have been used by the wily treacherous leaders of that party, to get the control into their hands, and they expect to use thent to maintain that - control, and any little incident which tends to weaken their power over them, causes a terrible commotion in the camp. There is, no doubt that President Johnson deceived mid proved false to the Fenians, as h'e has done to others. . The Democracy may smooth it over, they can not entirely hide it, and having approved some of his acts of treachery. they ought in fairness to him, to approve of this, and doubtless would, did they not know that their vote would be so small that their approval - would be sure death to the recipient of their applause. RETURN OF FLAGS BORNE BY PENNSTLY.t• VIA REGIMENTS IN TILE ARMY.-It is doubtless well known to all our readers that the State o; Pennsylvania through her officers, presented tt, each regimOnt in the army from this State, a eilk battle flag, to be carried by them througl their campaigns, and at some future day to b 4 returned to the military archives of the State with the battles through which they had bees borne inscribed on their folds. The rebellioi having been put down so far as military force was required; the regiments returned home— The 4th ofluly, 1866, was fixed as the day, ani Philadelphia chosen as the place for the core mony of returning the flags." All arrangemen. were completed, and the day arrived. The pre-, cession was formed, consisting of soldiers, then widows and orphans, headed by Gen. Meade and marched to Independence Square, and there under the,sha ow of that temple of Liberty, sur rounded by the survivors of those who went fort] in their strength to defend and protect the bul wark of fieedcim from the hand of the ruthles. and vindictive traitor host, and the widows ant orphans of t t llose who had yielded up their lives on the field of battle by the merciless missle. or in theloathsome prison at the hands of a more merciless and remorseless set of traitor,. The surviving members of the Allen Infan try, one of the first companies to reach Wash ington under the first call for volunteer s, were present by special invitation, and were assign ed to an honorable position in the procession The ensigns around which the brave had millet amidst leaden hail on many a bloody field, were returned to the Governor of die State, to be de posited in the office of the military archives, as evidence ot the faithfulness with which they had been carried, in a neat and appropriate address by General Meade. They were received by the Governor who recounted the circumstances un der whiCh.they were furnished to the various regimentsontheiiontering the service. Amonp them are banners that have been riddled and torn by the missies of death, sent forth for the purpose of destroying the GoVernment, and in stituting on its ruins a new military monarchy, with human bondage as its chief cornerstone. But, thank God, the Stars and Stripes shall triumAantly wave, and the d.:adly hatred of the Democratic Oligarchy, whether vented through open strife on the battle field, or chi canery, fraud, falsehood and deceit in securing the control of the Government, can not tear it down or dim one of its bright stars. The day was appiopriate, it being not only the anniver• nary :of the Declaration of Independence. but also of the fall of Vicksburg and the close of the battle of Gettysburg, wheretreason received the blows' under which it staggered and reeled anti reached the last ditch. In thut throng were the orphans of thefallen braves, the fut: re fathers and mothers-of this country, .ho will be' ably, to ' rspcat to the next generation the stirring scenes which surrounded their young days, and tell-bow their fathers fell in defence of the, gloriOna flag at the hand of Democratic traitors, and how their early days were clouded and their young hearts were caused to mourn by reason of Democratic treachery uud WHY DO THE COPPERHEADS receive with joy, and the Republicans with disapproval emphat ically expressed, the decision of the Supreme Court declaring that all deserters must be tried before they can be disfranchised? Will. our Democratic friends answer this question ? It is not because that decision will make vOtesfor Geary. • 'Tt is not because it will enfranchise Republicans. It is because deserters will be able to vote—and their votes will go for Cly mer. In view df this fact, tve aro right in tho ditto that lbur•fiftbe of the der,ertere and beti~gEinapui ire DSMOOtitt: , • .7 Tun WAR DiEtiaciik.—The ivarolou has so long husig threateningly over:the l. hole of the European continent, .has burst r; at last, and :wat . hasjiegun in earnest. ssia has carried out her.threat that shiovop regard a vote of the Federal Diet for the mhbilization of the Federal troops as ck , dissol4tion of the German Confederation, and that she would treat every State voting for the resolution n 8 on cite. my. On the 14th of June, the majority of the Minor States, especially the Kingdoms of Ba varia, Wurtemburg, Saxony,-and Hanover„the Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt, and the .Electorate of litisse•Cassel, voted for and car ried the obnoxious resolution, and on the next day, the kith of June, Prussian troops had marched into bcith Saxony and Hanover. From that day to the 20th, the date of our latest ad vices, they,advanced with remarkable rapidity, without meeting any obstrubtion. On the 20, AS far as we can glean front telegraphic des notches, they were in possession of a large por %ion of Saxony and Hanover, including the eapi lois of both countries. They had, besides, over• run the whole of Hesse-Cassel, Hesse-Darm 4.adt, and Nassau, established themselves at :tassel, and thus cut off the retreat of the Han werian troops, the whole of which will undoubt !illy be compelled to surrender. An encounter is said to have taken place between Prussian 'coops and a Hessian regiment, in which the latter, it is reported, were nearly annihilated. SgEl CET THAT SAME OLD SCARECROW.—We observe lint the Copperheads have brought out their old scare-crow and standing bug-bear in good Cason this year. They evidently think the ools are net all dead yet. Witness the follow lug from a Published call for a Clymer mass neeting of "all who are opposed to committing lie destinies of thirty millions of white men to ,light hundred thousand negro voters." Here is a chance for a little figuring. Eight hun dred thousand subtracted from thirty millions 'eaves a majority of ONLY twenty ins mihions 1110 hundred thousand I Yet, we think, with hat majority to fall back upon in case oferaer ;ency, the white race may feel tolerable easy iver its "destinies," for a short time at least. dut, picture it!

They also proposed to call a State convention, on the fifteenth of A ugust next, to nominate a Johnson candidate for Gov ernor of this State, and suggested a number of names, among them that of General Hancock. [le Copperheads were very much - elated at this, and at once acted on the suggestion, and call upon their party to send delegates and do all in their power, through theirpress and meet ings, to Thrward the project, thereby declaring Clymer not to be the choice of the President, and that he desires a man of larger calibre and more sound mind, promising all the pecuniary aid they can raise, beg, borrow or steal, and agreeing to do all the lying and take all the re iponsibility, provided the convention will pre sent them with a Johnson candidate in place of CVmer. How do the Berks county Democracy like the estimate of their man by his pretended friends? People are anxious to know what effect general war in Europe will have upon the bUsi :less of this country.

JOHN C. CALHOUN declared that the only use o which the Democratic party could be success ally devoted, was to a.d the South in breaking ip the Union, and he therefore urged all true southern riien to become Democrats. It will le remembered when rebellion was precipitat ,d, every Slave State had a Democratic Govern• tr, which shows that the South had put that ?arty to good use before it precipitated reboil but the loyal sentiment of the North was oo powerful fm-the traitorous Democracy, and hey consequently failed to destroy the Govern nent. Nevertheless, Calhoun was right in es imating the uses for which the Democracy Nero fit. They certainly suffered themselves to be used to the fullest extent in the scheme to lissolve the Union. BY .e..lg onamt of our State Legislature passed luring the selJsion of 180, the sum of five .housand dollars was appropriated for the work A . collecting and writing a complete history of he Pennsylvania Regiments in the service of .he United States during the rebellion, the same ict also making provision for the appointment of a competent person to prepare and write the same.

All business except the sale of fire crackers, and fire wa ter was suspended, why the latter should be made an exciption, is a question that can not so easily be answered; certainly intoxication, rowdyism and drunken brawls are not wol calculated to impress upon the minds of the young much reverence for the day, or much respect for those who take part in ce.ebrat log it in that•way, neither are they necessary re quisites for showing respect and voneratioi for the 1 et which gave us the beet Government and made us the freest and happiest people on the lace of the globe, The morning was spent by the boys in burning powder through all tho streets of town and making as much noise as possible.

They procured their supply of fireworks and a stock of ci gars, and each of them lit one, got into an wagon and started for home. They had not proceeded far when the,, fireworks took fire from their cigar ashes, end commenced to ex pluda, they attempted to leave the carriage, and in doing so one of the party was slightly hurt.

Murri.l. of Vermont, is still under consideration. Various attempts have been made by Penney Ivania members to amend by substituting higt,er duties on vari ous articles of home manufacture, which have been partially successful. fhe feeling seems, to be alinost universal thu• smoothing must be dune, and speedily tact, to check the excessive importations of goods of foreign manufacture. the exportation of gold, and protect American industry, if the people ate to be saved front bankruptcy and ruin. The bill in question, although not as efficient as it might or should be, will, nevertheless, if passed, afford a great relief to the industries and finances of the country, and is pet haps the best to be had at the pros ut time. Tut, President's organs here do not seem to favor the tariff bill, some openly opposing it, which may or may not poor tend a veto. Nev,•rtheless, if President John• son holds to the assumption, as recently ex pressed, that the American Congress is a rump Congress, andhas no legal or ,constitutional right to enact laws fur the country so long as the r , bel states ere unrepresented, then he must either veto the bill, or, if enacted into a ,law, regard itas inoperative and refuse to en force it.

EXPOSITIONS. It appears that President Johnson hoe given to the public a private letter of John W. For ney, written to him (the President.) nearly six mon he ago. Hereupon Col. Forney ex poses some of the short-comings of Mr. John son, and thus far the President seems to come ont "second best." "People who live in g.otts houses should not throw stones." As there are really no political questions involved in this matter, the subject cannot ho of much interest to the public, and the sooner gentlemen desist From exposing each ether's short comings less will g,ossiping individuals have to talk, about. We have to deal now with vital ques tions of great importance, which, if not prop erly discussed and intelligently passed upon a , the polls by the,American people, may , result in the downfall of republican liberty. GEN. GEARY, The Republican candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, was in this city last week, at (ending to the interests of his State in conneo• lion with the tariff bill now before Congress The people of the Keystone State cannot en •rust their interests into better hands, in the .uture as well as at present. CIRCULATIoN OP TIIE CITY DAILIES Congress recently enacted a law giving the public advertising to the two daily papers in Washington having the largest circulation, nd to none other. Tho proprietors of the dif erent journals were requested to make oath to he number of copies circulated. There were ut three competitors :—the Star (independ nt) ; Chronicle, (republican), and intetigen er, (copperhead), and their circulation is as ollows : Star, 7 715 ; °nide, 5,008. ln elligencer, 3 552. Although the Republican nd Constitutional Onion did nob bid for the nlvertieing I can give their average eireula ion : Re üblican, 900 ; Constitutional Union, 475. Thera is still another daily (the limes) nblished by a man named Hughes, who is universally known and universally detested -- t ie said of this man that ho inserts . the cards if business men without their knowledge, and hen goes and demands pay for the same, and .vben they remonstrate ho threatens to multi 4ate them.

Tremendous Conflagration On the 4th of July the most terrible fire that ever visited a New En land city, broke out in the city of Portland, Maine. The fire broke out in a boat-building shop, just above Brown's sugar house, tl.e wind blowing a gale and continuing for 12 h ours, burning over a mile in length end from one-fourth to one-hall mile in width. Brown's sugar houses are; all in ashes. The fire burned in a north-easterly direction to Exchange and Middle streets, thence to Congress and Cumberland streets, thence down through the town to the Grand Trunk Railway station.
