Demooraey and• Free Speech.
The Clymer Johnson Democracy make great
pretensionii of devotion to the principle of free
speech` and a free press. A short review of
the doings of the leaders of that party, will
show. to the satisfaction of any unprejudiced
mindi.that they and they alene have attempted
to abridge the freedom of speech, the freedom
of the Press, and freedom of thought. There
is no such thing as denying but that the late
rebellion was commenced by the leaders of the
Democratic party, including President Buchan.
an and his cabinet, during his term of office.
Forts,sisenals, dockyards and other public prop•
erty, was taken possession of by the States then
starting outin rebellion, and the so-called Con
federate bosierriment, and proceedings commeu
ced to capture such as. were not quietly surren
dered, and the old flag torn down and trampled
upon and even fired upon at Charleston, South
Carolina. The valuables of the national Treas
ury plundered and carried away to the head
quarters of the rebels. On what ground did they
attempt to justify all those acts ? It was alleged
alike by the perpetrators and the leading Demo
crats of the North that the slave States had suf•
fered by aggression on their rights at the hands
of the abolitionists of the korth,what were those
!tete ofaggression irony, no one ever pretented
that they consistad in anything but words, no
act had been cone by either Republicans or anti
elavert men, nor was any purpose which had a
tendency to interfere with slavery as it existed in
the States.
The slaveholders themselves had sought by
treachery,bribery and force,to extend the institu
tion to the territories, which necessarily raised the
questipn of the constitutional rights of sections,
as well as those of the people of the territories,
and the manner in which those questions were
discussed taking as they did the party organiza
tions for and against them, led the people to ex
amine for themselves and when it was once set
tled that the whole machinery of the Democrat
party was used for the purpose of extending sla
very, it gave an impetus to the anti-slavery men,
and out of those very discussions the Republican
party arose. It is also a notorious fact that the
discussions were confined to the then territories,
as no 'Orson was allowed to express an opinion
upon the justice or right of the peculiar institu
tion,in any of the Southern States, there freedom
of discussion and the press were not tolerated,
no papers were allowed to circulate that were
not in favor of slavery. The rebellion was then
begun and carried on for the purpose of resisting
the progress of opinions formed by discussion,
find with thePpen and avo wed purpose of com
pelling a change of opinion by force,and 'that too
by the very men who publicly declared for those
great bulwarks of evil liberty, argument had
failed them for the reason that they had taken a
position that wasnot founded injustice and truth,
and they resorted to the wager of battle to con
vince their opponents of their error, and in do
ing saattempted to treat an election, the result
which was in a mcasere owing to their own ef
forts,as, though it had never been held, in other
words, free speech and free fight on their side
was right, but in opposition to their wishes, no
man lbad aright to entertain an opinion or 'ex
presatone.,
How stands the matter now,'the President
says to the people, through their representatives,
that he and he alone has the right to speak in
relation to the organization of governments of
the eleven States not represented in Congress,
and they must do as he says, although he is
but an 'executive officer, bound by his oath tc
execute the laws as made by Congress, yet he
assumes to dictate to them the kind of laws
they shall make and to be the sole judge of
their actions, a more direct thrust at the free
dom:citspeech and the press cannot well be
made, and should the people acquiesce in the
position taken by him, than that very liberty
will be in greater danger than ever it was before.
When:one man power prevails on any question
touching the 'regulation of the affairs ^of the
Governinent there are the bulwarks cf liberty
in mat peril, and those who most rejoice at
thaw acts of arbitary power necessary to carry
into effect that doctrine, will in the end the
most beartily cry out against it.
• The. leaders t .of the Deinperacy have on all
occasions cried aloud for free speech and a free
press, and at the same time have advocated
every measure suggested by their slave holding
Inas* intended to circumscribe them both.
Conserßatisna, which declares that a man must
do as:his leadcrs say, without examination, or
investigation, bad that tendency. Compromise
leads 'much stronger in the same direction.
Secession and rebellion were got up by them to
resist their tide of onward march, and tha cry
of radical with the object of putting down men
who dare form and express opinions of their
own,, is the meanest of all the inventions of
wicked men for that purpose..,No man or set of
men ever accomplished any good or evil either
unless they were radical in their opinions and
expressions.
A . ny cause that will presper by means of
fair open argument, stripped of all ridicule and
meanness, must be right. If it will not so pros.
per;tten let it go under where it belongs.
f/fir Why is the President so anxious for a
fall representation of the South in Congress ?
Does saione believe that it is a matter of
principle.? , Not a man, in his senses, believes
that anything the President does now.a-days,
has any ether purpose than to deflect and break

AT THEilt OLD 'cu.—The Copper-John
son journals are just now very much worried
about the "rich Irish brogue" and the "sweet
German accent," and in their desperate attempts
to humbug and mislead citizens of foreign birth
they resort to barefaced falsehoods. Thus, we
see a paragraph going the rounds bf these pa
pers, to the effect that Thaddeus Stevens had
said that the negro was a better man than the
Irishman or German. Of course, every man of
sense knows that Mr. Stevens did not and would
not say anything of the kind—he is too old and
too intelligent a man to make use of such fool•
ish expressions. It is of course a Copperhead
lie, and shows plainly to what straits the party
is already reduced.
We would say to the editors of these papers :
You need not give yourselves trouble about the
Irish vote, for the tendency of that vote is pretty
well d,etermiried. The more intelligent and
worthy of our Irish citizens act with the Re
publican party, for they recognize in its princi
ples those which are dear to every friend of
liberty. The worst class find in the Democra
cy au appropriate place, and nothing can in
duce them to change their alleigance to the
same principles which they left the old country
to escape. This distribution cannot be changed.
Should President Johnson become the Demo
cratic candidate in the next presidential elec
tion, his anti-Penian - proclamation Would be
forgotten as completely as if it had never been
issued, and Irishmen of Democratic proclivities
would rally to his support.
As for the Germans, fully one-half of them
(aeally all the intelligent portion) dote with the
Republican Union party, and we are proud to
say they have been won over by appeals to their
intelligence, and not by , appeals to their preja
dices, and of course sueh low and vulgar ap
peals as we find in the Copper-Johnsonjournals
will make no impression upon them.
THREATS.—Our forefathers very„ wisely or
dained , at the formation of the government
that political questions should be decided by
the people at the polls, and that the mitiority
should submit to the decisiOns of the majority.
But modern Democrary desires to reverse all
this. Threats are thrown out by Copper-John
son speakers at public meetings that the suc
cess of the radical Union men will be just
cause for another rebellion. In 185 G, this
same class threatened again ; a rebellion was
inaugurated, and the result is known to the
country, At a recent JohnsOn ratification
meeting in Washington, three out of five speak.
era, within sight of the Capitol, made similar
threats. Are the people willing that politicians
of the rebel stripe should dictate to them bow
they shall vote? We always supposed that
a freeman was left free to think and vote as he
saw proper. But it seems that modern Democ
racy has resolved to think for and dictate to a
majority of the people. It needs no prophet
to foretell that the Copper-Johnsons, in the
event of succeu in the elections, would inaugu
rater the sa despotism in the North as prac
tised in t e South.
....................-.--.........
DISIN ERESTED PATRIOTS.—RandaII, Doolit
tle, Cow It & Co., managers of the Philadelphia
Johnson convention, are the most disinterested
patriots in the world. Randall is the present
Postmaster General and a candidate for the U.
S. Senate from Wisconsin.
Doolittle is a candidate for the presidency,
and was ao a candidate for a cabinet office, re
cently, but was persuaded to hold to the place he
occupies at present so as not to diminish the
strength of the copperjohnsons in the Senate.
Cowan was a candidate for Secetary of the In
terior, but the place was given to 0. H. Brown
ing, and he is now a candidate for 're-election to
the I LLS:Senate from Pennsylvania against Gov.
Curtin.
There was not one professed Republican at
tending the Philad'a. convention who was not
either an offiice•holder or an office seeker. And
Many of them are now in Washington asking for
the reward for their subserviency in their en
deavors to betray the RepubliCan party into the
hands ofthe copperheads and rebels. Surely no
man need put on his spectacles to see that these
men have thrown principle, patriotism, and hon
or aside in their wild chase after official honors
and emoluments.
TLIE SEPTEMBER CONVENTION.-TllO conven
tion of loyalists which meets in Philadelphia will
be attended by the most prominent Union men
of the country, and we can promise our readers
that it will not be a "mum convention" like the
copperjohnson conclave. There will be free
dom of speech. The country will be truly rep
resented by representative men: New York
sends Senators Morgan and Harris, and a host
of others; New Jersey sends Freylinghuysen,
Olden, Neusell, TennEycic,etc. ; West Virginia
Gov. Boreman, Senators Willey and Van Win
kle, Geu. Kelly, Gen. D. H.Strotber, (porte cray
on) &c.; Maryland, Senator Cresswell, Francis
and John L. Thomas, John Lee Chapman, Gen.
Dennison, &c. ; Delaware, A. B.Smithers, J. H.
Adams, Courtscy, Alderdice, &c. ; Massachu
setts sends her mcst eminent men—look at the
array of names : John P. Andrew, John G.
Whittier, (the poet) John H. Clifford, Ralph . Wel
do Emerson, Gen. Banks, Gen. Butler, Loring,
Quincy, Boutwell, finks, Devon, Lincoln, Hay
den, Sherman, Sprague and a host of others.
ORGANIZATION.—The time for discussion has
almost passed and the time for action is near
at hand. A party to rove effective at the polls
must have a thorough organization. Pennsylva
nia Republicans would do well te6 follow the ex
ample of their bretbern in New Jersey, who
have divided each election district into blocks,
and have appointed active men to canvass the
blocks, make a list of Union voters, and admon
ish each and every one to be at the polls EARLY.
If the main body of the voters in a district vote
early it will give the active men of the party an
opportunity to bring in the lukewarm and doubt
ful ones. Every doubtful voter who cannot be
approached in the usual way, should have a
ticket at his disposal a, day. or two before the
election. It is a good plan to distribute the
tickets a few days before the election, as They
are often destroyed at the, polls by maliciously
ditiposed persons. Every provision should be
made to bring out aged and infirm voters ; and
should the weather be unfavorable, extra excl.."
flans should be used to make the veto just de
Hill as if it were a clear day,
OUR PUBLIC DEBT
Robert Dale Owen says that the public debt
of the nation, incurred in putting down, the re
bellion, is like the character of , a woman, it will
not bear discussion. And yet the people are
asked by the Johnson-copperheads to place our
debt at the mercy orrebehi and their ..copPer
head *allies. The rebels boldly atlirm ; tliatthey
fought in a just cause, and we are so 'say
that the copperjohnsons uphold them-lir this
idea. NoW, is there any plainer proposition in
the world than the fact that if men were engag
ed iu a just cause that they will insist upon
having all obligations liquidated ipeurr ; edin
the furtherance of that cause. The IS4deAnen.,
in Congresss desired to guard against such a
contingency, and proposed an amendment to
the Constitution, securing the national debt
and putting it out of the power of rebels to re
pudiate that debt. If the SonstitutiOaramend
ment (which the Republican party upholds and
the copperjohnsons oppose) is defeated in the
October and November elections, the rebel
States will come in with about 35 more repre
sentatives than they had before the war; and
by uniting with the copperheads, they will in
sist upon having their debt incorporated with
ours, or agitate for the repudiation of our debt,
Our people are already sufficiently taxed
but if they would like to help pay the rebe
debt they have only to vote the Clymer•copper
johnson tickets.
We can well imagine how the rebel represen
tatives in• Congress would introduce this sub
ject. They would approach the northern cop
perhead Congressman in this wise : "You ac
knowledged during the war, both by word and
act, that we were not in the wrong ; you insist
ed that the North and w't the South brought
on the wale.; you gave us every aid and can
fort in your power consistent with your own
safety ; you even went so•far at Chicago as to
declare the war for the restoration of the Un
ion a failure. Well, now, we have maimed sol
diers and soldier's widows as well as the North;
is it just that we should help pay'pensions to
Northern soldiers and ours should receive
mine." ("No, no," would answer the copper.
heads.) "You have paid Northern soldiers
bounties, and we must help to pay the debt in
curred in consequence; is this just." (No,
no," answer the copperheads again) We have
incurred an immense debt ; you cannot con
sistently ask us to help pay your debt while
you help repudiate ours. We have also lost
our slaves; they were liberated without our
consent ; they were our private property ; you•
must acknowledge that it is not right to take a
man's private property without paying for it.
Is all this right—is it just." ("No, no," again
answer the copperheads with emphasis.)
And during all this discussion the national
debt would depreciate in value, the people
would become bankrupt and the country ruin
ed financially. There is a.simple remedy for
all this—the proposed constitutional amend
ment not only secures the national debt, but
deprives the rebels and copperheads of the
power of repudiating our obligations.
President Johnson is making a political
tour through the North, ostensibly for the ptir
pose of participating in the ceremonies of dedi
cating the Douglas monument, but really for
the purpose of indulging in uttering the slang,
which he is only capable of. He seems inca
pable of rising to a just appreciation of the
dignity to, which he was elevated by the fatal
bullet of J. Wilkes Booth, or to appear in any
other character than a blatant demagogue
stumping the North with the intention of as
sisting the triumph of rebel sympathizers, but
in reality 'rapidly crushing out the few faint
hopes of partial success they once cherished.
To the apparent welcome extended to him, he
is indebted to the presence of Gen. Grant and
Admiral Farragut, and on all possible occa
sions rewards his hearers with his most malig
nant partisan harangues.
TUE Issas.—The copperjohnson party in
sists upon admitting rebels into Congress with
greater power than they had before they turned
traitors, thus actually rewarding treason. The
Union party asks of those who sought to ruin
the government only a reasonable guarantee
—asks, indeed, only that they shall not have
gained political power by their rebellion.—
Tennessee has - admitted the justice of this
proposition, acceded to the amendment basing
representation on voters, and been admitted to
the councils of the nation. And if the others
wish to be repre;ented, they only have to adopt
the amendment and send loyal men to Con
gress. The loyal North, in justice to itself,
demands only that rebels shall not be given
the opportunity to undo all that has been done.
BAs an evidence of the correctness of An
drew Johnson's statement that peace, order and
tranquility prevail throughout t1:0 United States,
the Toledo (Ohio) Blade prints' the following,
which it received from a gentleman who arrived
from Bowling Green, Kentucky. This polite
invitation to emigrate is being sent to the well
pronounced Unionists throughout Kentucky
and other Southern States:
"Mr. -: Sin ; You are hereby notified
to quit this State within three days. If found
after that period your life will be forfeited:
"DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE."
The members of this "Democratic Commit
tee" are no doubt supporters of "my policy,"
and loud in, their clamor for the unconditional
admission of Southern Representatives in Con
gress.
A QUE3TION.—Voters of this District ! are
you in favor of the Northern States depriving
themselves of 13 members of Congress, and of
giving the South 13 more than they now pos
sess, based upon a non-voting population ?
Holster Clymer and his friends are in favor of
this. Is a Northern soldier hotter than a ne
gro, who cannot vote ? Mr. Clymer and his
party say they are not. Soldiers know your
friends. •
Ser Mester Clymer could not stand the pres
sure in Reading dtiringthe monster Geary dem
onstration in that city on Wednesday last. He
left the city early that morning for Pottstown.
Poor Clymer! he and his party are dwindling
into nothingness more and more every day. It
is an ill omen that drives a Berk-s county Dem
ocrat from the limits of that stronghold during
a Republican mass meeting.—Telegraph.
se.How can an honorably discharged sol
dier vote for Mester Clymer, when Hiester Cly
mer declared that it was dishonorable to enter
the army, dishonorably to march into a South
ern State to crush rebellion ? Soldiers, 'mil
der this question.
CP.OWED TOO 800 .-A dispatch was read in

Star 32. Buse ball on the brain appears
to be a prevailing disease just now. Where
you see a group of young men standing to

hear the frequent use of such words as : "good
home run," "splendid catch," "struck out,"
"fouls," "passed ball," "base," ate.

THRBE MONTHS FOR NOTHING.- A val
uable Offer.—The enterprising publishers of
the AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST offer that valua
ble journal free for the remaining 3 months of
this year to all new subscribers for 1867 (Vol.
26), who send in their subscription during
this month of September. The cost of the
"Agriculturist" is only $1.50 a year, or four
copies for $5, so that $1.50 (0r . 51.25 for each
of tour persons), will just now secure the pa
per for fifteen months I. We advise everybody
to embrace this opportunity. The "Agricul
turist" is a marvel of ye' ue and cheapness, and
in no other way can one so well invest $1.50 or
$1.25. The paper is adapted ,to all classes of
readers in the city, village and country. Its
Household and Children's departments are ex•
ceedingly valuable and interesting every
where. Each number contains 32 to 44 large
double size magazine pages, filled with origi
nal, instructive and interesting matter. It is
splendidly illustrated with many large first
class Engravings, which are both pleasing and
instructive, and alone worth far more than the
cost of the paper
The "Agriculturist" is diligent and unspar
ing in its exposures of all kinds of swindling
and humbugs, and in this way alone saves the
country thousands of dollars every year.

A CIIANGE.—Liout. F Z. Ifeebncr has
been appointed Internal Revenue Assessor of
the 6th District, in place of H. J. Saeger, re
moved. Mr Saeger has boon connected with
the office since it was first started, first as chief
clerk for Mr. Samuel Mellon, and afterward
us Assessor. Ho has proved to be a faithful
officer, attentive to his duties', just and fair to
those having business with him.
Mr. Heebner entered the army in 1861, and
about the beginning of 1862, was promoted
to Quartermaster of the 47th Regt. P. V., and
served in that capacity until captured in the
Shenandoah Valley, in 1864. Soon after his
release, in 1865; ho was mustered out of ser
vice under the rules of the Department. He
was a faithful officer while in the army, and
if a change had to be made and a Copperhead
appointed, we prefer his appointment to that
of any other person we have heard named.—
Mr. Heebner has always voted the Democratic
ticket, and was a strong McClellan man in
1864, and hie appointment leads us to believe
that the assertions that no Democrat could be
appointed, when a Republican could be made
to promise to vote fur Clymer are true, and
that the Copper-Jobnsons were unable to find
such a man here capable of writing his name,
willing to sell his principles for an office, and
that the boasted Republican Johnson Clymer
club with its 60 members, is either a myth or
they aro all so degraded as to be entirely unfit
for that or any other position outside of strong
stone walls and iron bolts.
A BUSY WEEK —Judging from appear
ances, this will be not only a busy week for
the Copperhead policy pc iticians, but an ex
ceedingly anxious and expensive one tor the
office seekers. Delegates are to bo selected to
make their nominations at Trexlertown, on
Saturday neat. The contest appears to be
between the Enighes and toe old officers. The
Knights have selected one candidate for each
of the positions to be filled, and appear to be
putting forth every exertion to secure the del
egates, with a fair prospect of success. They
have plenty of money and a largo majority of
rum sellers on their side, both of which are
indispensiblo requisites to success in this
cousty. The anti-rotation men have got out
a low fliers as candidates, who stated no
chance, and should they secure a few dele
gates, it will only be' for the purpose cf sell
ing them at the Convention to the highest
bidder. There is not the chance for forming
combinations that has been heretofore, and
ho only hope of success is in the ability of
one party or the other to purchase the requis
im number of delegates, to secure the nomina
tion, which is equal to an election.
From now until Saturday next, the Copper-
Johnson and Clymer candidates in this county
and their friends, will be' kept on the alert.

Democratic argument is dealt out by the gill

place, and we intend to gather them up for

A WORD TO •OFFIOE-HOLDERS
learn from a recent issue of the English editio
of the copperhead bible for Lehigh county
`re mean, of course, the paper styling itself
the Alleetown Democrat—that the presence
,at, or absence from so called Domocratio meet
ings, of the federal office-holders of this coun
ty, shall be the criterion by which their at
tachment to the administration of President
Johnson shall be judged. And nor only this,
but that. all u nut feolinclive t••rc kto
to the t,illotot.ol the copperhead, o• -!
anti•soldier-voting, and rebel-sympathizing
litical organization of the county, shall be re
ported to the President, r.nd forthwith decapi
tated to give place to what that slimy sheet
would call a "white Republican." A white
Republican I Who is ho? What is ho ?
Judgingfrom the language employed by Cop
perhead speakers and writers, for the last
half-donee years, a person should be led to in
fer that no republican over drew breath who
was not a black republican. Even Wm. 11.
Seward, the reputed author of the deal ine of
an "irrepressible conflict," was considered,
but a very short time ago, one of the very
blackest of the black. By what mysterious
process has he changed his color 1 Ethiopia's
(haleness answer ! By what systeni•of misce
genation have Andy Johnson and Senators
Cowan and Doolittle boon changed from their
almost unpardonable blackness to a pearly
whiteness? Bon. Wood and Clem Vnllandig
ham, the head and front of the Democratic
party as it was will please shed light upon this
obscure question. We rather suspect from
tits company these men keep (please remem
ber the Philadelphia convention,) that what
the Democrat w ould call a "white republican"
is one who, formerly a black republican, is now
afflicted with Taney on the brain—that queer
sort of insanity or mental derangement which
induces a,man to imagine that negroes have
no rights which white men are bound to re
spout. We black republicans,. however, be
lieve that all men, white or blat k, have cer
tain God-given rights which no man hrfs a
right'to deny ; but it is questionable, indeed,
very doubtful, whether a copperhead is capa
ble of of advocating a princi,ile that oven the
most degraded and blackest negto is bound to
respect.
If any of the federal office holders of Lehigh
county wish to be complimented with the
name of "white republican" as understood by
the Allentown Democrat—if they wish the con
gratulations of every copperhefid and rebel,
from Bob Lee down to the meanest sympathi •
zer with the pro slavery rebellion, and merit
the scorn of every American citizen, who be
lieves, in the language of the immortal Decla
ration of ladepend ace, "that all men aro cre
ated free and equal,' all they have to do is to
crouch before the lash of Andrew Johnson and
the copperheads, by attending their meetings,
,gotten up, apparently, for the sole purpose of
testing their soundness to Ankjohnsoncopper
headistn—a big and high sounding word, b ut
such is the way of the world.
It, on the contrary, our federal office-holders
recognize the man in their souls,—if they feel
that fealty to principle, they will meet the im
pudent threats of that disunion faction with
"manly hearts" and say to Andy Johnson's
pups of Lehigh county, that although they may
hark and bite until "white republicans" take
their places, they mean to stand on their own
bottom, through fire and smoke, maintaining
clear consciences and an unsullied reputation
in spite of all opposition.
The man .who promised to be the Moses of
the slaves, who declared that treason should
be made odious and traitors punished, and now
violates the most solemn pledges—proving the
very Pharaoh to the slaves--making loyalty
odious end punishing patriots, (remember the
New Orleans massucre,) has no right to ex
pect support for "My Policy" from any man
more attached to the true principles of govern
ment and the absolute principles of truth than
to his own pocket. Bread and butter are pre
cious articles to bo sure, but honesty, virtue,
and a spirit of independence in mutters of right
aro more precious still.
Federal offico-bolders of Lehigh, will you,
eon you sacrifice your most solemn convictions
to cower before the treacherous demands, if
nothing worse, of his 'accidency,' the self
styled "Tribune of the pe9plet"
Gentlemen, do you understand ? A word
to the wise is sufficient.
