V.When , the citizens of the United States yield
tili:ithrisatar of violence, and allow the authors
tliote thiiaisio gain important positions by
nieittia thered, then, indeed, have they suck so
lownin the scale of degredatiou, that any posi
tBona3signed them will not be too degrading.
Witakthe custom in years past, for the leaders
ti?g*ttea civil war,secession with all its train
ortvilso if they were not permitted to rule or
ruin the country, and many times have they
Iticep permitted in some districts, from that
c4itse;tO return to Congress, a worthless, cot ,
rtipt vagabond, who helped make up their ma
jority, and when, through their own scheming,
the election of 1860 went against them, they
s t ititi* tb treat that election as a nullity,and
I rvin), their, oWn Government in the very heart
oaths nation. They failed in that attempt, it
A11044)63 that the time for threats had passed.
4:t.. It.eadiEig, their speakers discussed the
cit'siiices of another insurrection, provided Con
gress:was not placed in their hands. The great
ntittfelestr - conventienjcalled to support Andrew
at -Philadelphia, in their address' to

people, say:
thatiCongress shall perpetuate this policy
saga by excluding loyal States and people from
rantesentation, by which the legislative powers
of i tha Government are exercised, common pru
411PS:compels us to anticipate augmented dis
-4.100194a sullen wi.hdrawal from the duties
Qbligaliona of the Federal. Government, in
zernatilissensiens, and a general collision of
elleimenta and ;pretensions, which may renew
ii ketill more fearful shape the civil war from
which we hove just emerged l"
Making a threat like that,which means,
flit; unless Congressand the whole administra.
dim of the country are placed in their hands,
they will again secede. and get up another re
bellion, and their appeal to the people, to elect
Merebers of Congress, who coincide with them
their views, is certainly impudent, to nay the
least. If the people understand their own in
terests, they will never again give them the
power of organizing another rebellion out of
ttm,stniy, navy, and resources of the country,
as they did:Ander Buchanan's administration.
Thdy would doubtless like to see Jeff. Davis
Secretary of War again, and some Northern
doNlvfikee have command of the navy, how
st . koU the valuable materials of both would be
phased jn the hands of the men who surrender
ebtO General Grant, we can judge by their
Offsita and actions. Would it not be better
Willem to ,confine their energies to•the pur

alone? Utley will not learn the lesson, then

."Ten years ago the Democracy, now a great
triOmpli for slavery, through the workings of a
se4r4 political organization to which none but

elsiiming to the public that ono of the unaltera

who bad ever belonged to one, could have no
standing with the party. Ten years have pass
ma, many of the same men that were then
in'aitive life are yet the active leading men in

voted and acted with the Democracy are with
them to-day, and in place of being opposed to
utast political societies, the leaders have
ant kept up the circle formed by the di-

endeavored to extend it to the masses, and with
considerable success, if report is to be relied

ton in ' d spee4•ln Citininnsti, a few-days ago,
from which we' quote as %nowt:
"Said Governor Aiken, of South Carolina I
when in Washington a short time ago, when
asked him why he insisted on the members of
his State being admitted to seats, and asked
him irthe interests of his State 'were not well
taken care of:
'Mr. Eggleston,' said lie: 'there are only two
things you have not done for us and never will
do: We have hundreds and thousands of wid
qws iu,thp South, and vve want , to be in Con
gress so as to place our Widows on the pension
rolls of the United States, that they may have
the same Support' the widows of your soldiers
set. The other matter is, that we have con
tracted A large debt down South, as you have
in the North, and it is not right for us to be tax
ed to pay your debts unless your taxes also go
to pay our debt.
That's it precisely. The reconstructed rebels,
aided by the copperheads, intend, if they get
power, to tax the loyal . people of the North, to
pension those who fought to destroy the Gov
ernment. • People who complain of taxes ought
to consider the consequences of the return of
the Democratic party 'into power. They were
the cause of the taxes we now pay, and they
would add to our burdens by pensioning rebel
cripples and the families of rebel soldiers.
DEMOCRACY AND LABOR.—Is possible for
men who have been raised on the labor of one
class of poor, down-trodden people, to feel for
another class, on whose heads the iron heel of
despotism has been placed by others? Can a
class of men who have grown rich, impudent,
haughty and wicked, upon the involuntary labor
of the colored man, be believed and trusted,
when he professes to be in favor of the poor
laboring white man, and anxious to so shape
the legislation of the country as to elevate
them ? The Democratic party, and the pro
slavery and free-trade party of the country, the
one means that the labor of the colored race
must be controled for their benefit, with re•
ward, and the wages of the poor white man
must be reduced to an equality with the low
wages of the old world, also for their benefit.—
Are either just, can either be, allowed? The
laborer in the field, the work-shop, the furnace
and mills, must answer.
THE ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE Pius.
ENT AND THE FUTURE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR
or PENNSYLVANIA.—It is horrible to contem
plate the fact, and equally abhorrent to dise?ss
it, but it is nevertheless true, that there was a
deliberate, organized and persistent attempt, at
York, Wednesday, to assassinate the present,
as well as the future Republican Governor of
Pennsylvania. At least twenty reliable and in
telligent gentlemen corroborate each other in
stating that a murderous fire from revolvers in
the hands of Copperheads, was directed at the
car occupied by Gen. Geary and Gov. Curtin,
in the train carrying the Dauphin and Cumb,r
lam' delegations from York, yesterday. We
make no comment on this fact, but we submit
it to the peopla of Pennsylvania, and ask the
question, whether, like at New Orleans, the
Union men of the Keystone State are to be
slaughtered in cold blood, when they meet for
deliberation in a peacable and lawful manner?

USURPATION.—In his letter to the Attorney
General of Louisiana, the President says - "The
people must be first consulted in changing the
organic law of the State. Usurpation will not
be tolerated."
We are to infer,.therefore, that in the Presi•
dent's opinion any change that may be attempt
ed in the organic law or Constitution of a State,
without consulting the people,is usurpation and
whoever inaugurates it is a usurper. Now Mr.
Johnson, since his accession to the Presidency,
has, by military edict, caused the Constitutions
of ten States to be changed, and in not a single
instance has the proposed change been submit
ted to the people. Does Mr. Johnson think him
self a usurper?
rgir Some of the Copperhead newspapers
are publishing a list of military men who are
supporters of "my policy." Why don't they
complete the column ? More "Generals', than
they have named are with the President. Here
are some of the avowed supporters :

Queen Emma, Queen of the Sandwich
Islands, is now in this country. She lately ar
rived in New York from Europe. She has vis
ited the President, the Tomb of Washington,
Mount Vernon, and other places, and is receiv
ed, wherever she goes, with that cordial wer.
come, which is generallyextended by the Amer
ican people to distinguished strangers. A few
years ago, when her husband, then King of the
Sandwich Islands was in this country, he was
put off the cars because he was black and had
no Democratic office-holdertravelling with him
as his owner.
THE 22ND AND READlNG.—Friends of Hu
manity, don't forget to go to Reading on the
22nd—to the great Union Meeting! It is im
portant that this meeting, held at the home of
the copperhead Clymer, be largely attended,
and we therefore, urge upon the friends of
Geary in Lehigh county to make timely ar
rangements to attend. From what we learn,
we can promise the Union men of" Alt Berk&'
a good representation from this county.
SerThe reconstructed rebels seem to ha , e
commenced a reign of terror all over the South.
In addition to the fearful massacre at New Or
leans, we record the murder of Col. Ripley iu
Georgia, and Lieut. Hampton, late of the 35th
Xentucky, who was forcibly dragged from
his bed at night, and deliberately murdered.
And yet we are asked to place the destinies of
this great country in the keeping of these pet
ty despots.
hlonzszr.—The men who were engaged in
the attempt to de.troy. the Government openly
and secretly, are now asking to have the whole
control of, that same government placed in
thefr hands, to the entire seclusion of the men
who remained true, and preserved the Consti
tution. Can brazen•faced impudence ask
more ?
oar What has become of Mr. Wells, the
,lovernor of Louisiana ? = Does he exist, and
the office he was elected to fill? Or, has the
President, by an act of military despotism,
wiped out both ? If the President may dis
pose of a Governor in this summary manner in
Louisiana, why not in New York or Pennsyl
vania ? What limits shall be put to his power?

MR. EDITOR :—At the late Copperhead
county convention, the following is one of the
resolutions, passed amid tho cheers, and to the
great relief of those present :
"ii:essised, That wo are unalterably opposed to
the, radicals in Congress, and repudiate with con
tempt their efforts to force. upon us negro suffrage,
and their kindred schemes tending to place the white
race of this contii.ent upon an equality with the
blank inferior race, and that these attempts are a
willful perversion of the avowed objects of the war,
and prove the truth of our oft repeated predictions
that the primary object of the war was not for the
Union."
Poor souls, how they are to be pitied, a lit
tle soothing syrup might quiet their nerves.--
Those resolutions undertake to shiver for the
"white raoo of the continent:" that is too
much shake. Could they not be a little more
ciroumsoribed (or were they so terribly.fright
coed at the idea of being hoisted up to a cer
tain "equality") and express themselves more
in the compass of truth, by saying that a cer
tain species of the white race inhabiting the
United States, whom the circumstances of the
times transformed into copperheads. Those
resolving gentlemen had better only resolve
for themselves and not for all the white race
of North and South America. It has been
feared by some persons that negroes might be
placed upon an equality with the whites, but
this resolution makes us fear no snob . thing ;
they only fear that white copperheads may be
elevated to the blacks. This truly, as stated
in the resolution, would be a oontemptable
Congressional effort: Congress endeavor to
,elevate Copperheads to an equality with loyal
negroes : a viler slander was never resolved
upon. Congress elevate the Copperheads to a
level with loyal blacks? a moral implssibili•
ty. Gontlmen, Copperhead resolution makers
of Lehigh, calm your fears ; Congress will nev •
er undertake the job. When the Cops of Lo
high resolve again it is hoped they will be
more modest and not tyke in so much terri
tory, ONE ON TIM CONTINENT.

proaches for the faithful of the Copperhead
party to fall in and receive their reward, in
the shape of a small office, which, with econo
my and a little labor, can be made to pay ex
penses by charging all the fees the law has
provided, those. willing to be sacrificed for the
party good, (their own is not to be thought
of,)• are annout•ing their willingness to
accept the poeitious, and take the risk of se
curing fees sufficient to keep them going for
the next three years. For Prothonotary,Esaias
Rehrig, the
.present incumbent, not a very
violent party man, a good officer, has no spe
cial claims for anything he has done for the
party. Another is Dr. H. A. Saylor,of Lynn,
little known outside of the township in which
he lives. His only claim for a nomination is,
that he was a member of the Knights of the
Golden Circle. Of course, that is sufficient to
secure him the favor.
For Clerk of the Orphan's Court, Geo. W.

spectable man steady and attentive to his
business. Robert Sreckel,of South Whitehall,

Tni4sTemzugs Pewri.— The pipperm
johpioh Broad aneßutter conclave, o filled by
the ketieii•up a biatkonitl Union ConireatiOn,
biit riliby a re•assembling of the gre4eNa:
tional—Uniconditional-Goverament—Sarten der
Coriventim which met at Chicago, in 1804, as
sembled in a wigwam, on Cherry Hill, near the.
Penitentiary, in Philadelphia, on the 14th in
stant.
This so-called convention is composed in part
of the delegates to the Chicago Convention of
18t)4, who were directed to go there by ti; •ir
State organizations and represent nobody tut*
ly. Tho balancrorthem are men from the
States ut 'that time in 'rebellion and most Of
them were in the southern army though few
were praminent. The new members were
chosen to fill up vacancies in the Democratic
convention, the new name for the purpose of
dedelititig the people in order to secure their
votes.
Gen. Dix was chosen temporary chairman.
Upon taking. tho chair, he made a speech, the
burden of which consisted •of complaints
against Congress for not admitting members
from the Southern States.
Communicated.]
Forgetting thtt States cannot, but individ
utile can commit treason and forfeit all rights
to the protection of the Government, and render
themselves forever unworthy of confidence
The States are undoubtedly entitled to bo rep
sented in Congress, though many who claim
to be Citizens of th osei States, may, by their
course of life, render themselves incompetent
to be the representatives Of their States. At
the conclusion of Gen. Dix'e speech the Rev.
J. N McDonald formally opsned the conven
tion with prayer, giving some of the members
present a chance to hear repeated an address
to the throne of divine grace, slightly different
in form, to their usual petitions to the dispen
sers of government patronage. The reverend
gentleman showed that he understood the ob
ject of the assembled representatives cf the
Brigade and that he was familiar with the
writings of Burns as well as the toad:tinge of
the apostles, and never fcrgot to put the tem
poral first.
This closed the first day's proceedings. We
shall not attempt to follow the proceedings in
their regular order, but only to give the most
prominent features.
The scenes at the Centicental and other ho•
tole where the delegates stopped, were ludic
riot's and some of them ready disgusting Old
friends from the North and South met each
other and hesrty greetings took place. They
had been sepsrated for years, though working
in the same cause, to overthrow the govern
went, they had been unable to meet and lay
their plane so as to work in concert, and the
parts taken by each had been widely different.
The Southerner had taken the sword, while
his Northern ally had only been able to look
on and sympathize, and occasionally render
assistance by sending aid through the block•
ads, in speech-making and passing resolu
tions at Chicago.
Some of the most radical Copperheads were,
however, very stubborn. We heard of one
who cnly yielded his right to a seat and voice
in the proceedings after the administration of
repeated and large dozes of the Democratic
fulcrum —whiskey—of which he was very fond.
Yallandigaam was kept awake all night in the
attempt to get him to withdraw. The Woods
were not so troublesome ; they seem to under
stand the dispositior.s of their followers better
and yield with grace.
(Comuannicated.)
On the Committeeon Resolutions from Penn
sylvania wore Cowan and Ex.-Gov. Bigler,
certainly beautiful material to attempt to rep
resent the views of that class of the citizens of
this State who have held thorn and their friends
at home in cheek and disarmed their brothers
in the rebel army.
A number of resolutions were offered by in
dividuals and voted down. Of those reported
by the Committee some will be approved by
ell ; others are regular double-headers, ; mere
catch words to deceive, and from present in
formation a pottion of them were coldly receiv
ed by the assembled wiseacres.
Alter the resolutions comes a long address,
complaining of the many ,imaginary insults
heaped upon the people of the S .uth, who, ac
cording to their version, were always, the most
quiet, inoffensive beings in the- world, while
the people of the free Statea were hyenas in hu
man form.
The work of the conclave appears to have
been done by the Committee on Resolutions
and Address. Tho resolutions are very tame,
but show the snake in their entire construction
end were evidently framed for the purpose of
deceiving the people and do not express the
sentiment of scarcely a single member.
The address is certainly anything but mod
est. The authors showed their confidence in
their ability to deceive the people and espec
ially that portion which profess to be Demo
crats. - The idea cf mon who have engaged in
an attempt t,;) destroy the Government by open,
armed warfare,and secret, underhanded treach
ery, before the victims of their malice are
scarcely cold in their graves, asking the Path
ere, brothers, and friends of those victims to
place their welfare for the present and their
hopes for the future into their bloody bends.
Discussion was entirely ignored. Not a
single-man was allowed to express his opinion
either on the restitutions or address, and in
place of its having been a convention for the
interchange of sentiment between the sections,
it was conducted sole,y with a view to secure
appointments from hie 'fiecidency: They did
not even dare name the foundling, and, conse
quently there was no christening.
The Committee on Resolutions had a stormy
time. The Democrats would not agree to u
namo,noteven the ono under which the call was
made. The delegates from Louisiana, Mo
scni and Kentucky left the room, because
Vallandigham was not admitted. One mem
ber flourished a dirk t_ another delegate, in a
private conversation , declared the oluect to be
to get control of Congress and repudiate the
National Debt.
Over one hundred of the delegates frczu the
Southern States, left in the 8 A M , train, be
fore the resolutions wore submitted to the
()rood in the wigwam. Should the Demount
ey attempt to appropriate the sentiments of
the resolutions, they must repudiate every
platform made by them for the last five years,
except the plank of "the superiority of the
States over the General Government,' and all
their candidates.
The address is much nearer to their liking
and with its double headers, will very likely
suit their leaders.
This closed the scenes without any interrup
tion, riot or bloodshed.
What a continst with New Orleans and oth
er Southern cities!

TUTE, ALLENTOWN.-A neat circular of the
Young Ladies Department just issued, shows
an attendance during the last year of over
seventy diffe'rent pupils, this is indeed evi
deuce of a gratifying prosperity ; but the ad
vantages offered hero fully' warrant this pat
ronage, and much more. We believe, Mr.
Milford in the management of this Institution,
is prepared to keep pace w th the domande of
the times, and to furnish the best opportuni
ties for a thorough and ornameetal education.
Miss Merriam is a moat successlut and accom
plished teacher, anti the order, attention, and
lady-like deportment of pupils in her room
give it a real charm, the Young Ladies oleo
have the advantages of recitations ia all the
higher English Cho.sical and Mathematical
studies of the full college course—a much
more extended course, than is offered by many
of the beet Female Colleges of our country
The thoroughness of Rev. W. K Milford in
languages, the ability of Rev. E. J. Koons., in
Mathematics, and the skill of A :Spangler, in
Music, are fully known and acknowledged.—
To those have been added the valuable servi
ces of Rev. S. Phillips, in N..turel Philosophy
and Chemistry, which will no doubt createa
new interest in physical science. In ther
