loud for a "Union candidate for Congress,"

they betray their iuccrity by opposing tho

Now and Then
Circumstances, wo aro told, alter cases.
They do moro than that thoy alter men,
measures and principles. Let us take two
or three of tho moro obstrusivo anomalies
of tho present civil war in illustration to
our argument.
Who expected, for instanco, to sec, nine
ty days ago, such a "Happy Family" as
the political friends and antagonists of Mr-
Lincoln exhibit, at this time, in their
marclii shoulder to shoulder, to fight for
tho integrity of the Union.
Who ever expected toaoo tho Now lork
Tribune, tho Republican organ, which, in
July 1654, published a poem addressed to
tho "Star Spangled Banner," commencing:
"Tear down tho flaunting U!
Half raait tho Harry flag!"
and vigorously cried out, "Let tho Union
slido I" who ever expected to soo it bat
tling sido by side, as it docs now, with
democratio journals for an "unbroken Un
ion," denouncing all disunionuts as "trap
tors at heart,'' and applauding tho order of
John A, Dix, tho great Democratio leader
of New York, to shoot on tho spot any
man who dares to haul down tho American
flag.
Who would have anticipated, thirty days
ago that President Lincoln, Cameron, and
the head of the government, could admit a
negro to bo "property," in any sense,
North or South ? And yet, what hosannas
aro still being sung by the Abolition Ro
publican party over tho decision of General
Butler, at Fortress Monroe, which pro
nounccs the fugitive slaves of men in arms
against tho federal government nothing hut
"chattels," goods, possessions, liko a bar
rcl of flour or a box of rifles, and as such
"contraband of war" forfeited by tho en
cmy 1
Who would think, judging from the son
timcnts now held by tho present head of
tho National Administration, Abraham
Lincoln, that he on January 12, 1848, as
may be seen by referring to Appendix Con,
Globe, 1st Session 30th Congress, pago 01,
had used tho following emphatio language
in advocacy of tho right of secession and
revolution :
''Any people, anywhere, being inclined
and having tho powor, have a right to rise I
up and shako off tho existing government
and form a now one that suits tlicm better.
This is a most valuable,. a most sacred
right a right which we hope and believe,
is to liberate tho world. Nor Is this right
confined to cases in which the whole pooplo
of an existing government may choose to
exorcise it. Any portion of such people
that can, may .revolutionize and make their
own of so much of tho territory as they
inhabit. Moro than this, a majority of
any portion of such people may revolution-
izo, putting down a minority, intermingled
with, or near about them, who may oppose
their movements. It is a quality of rev-
olutions not to go by old lines or old laws
but to break both and mako new ones,"
We do not state these things with a view
to find fault with them, but merely to show
those Republicans hereabout who aro so
ungenerous as to iudulgo iu slang and
abuse of the Democratic paity at this timo,
charging them with sympathizing and cn-
couvaeinff tho Secession movement of tho
Southern States, of tho record thoy them-
selves are possessed. Wo aro not willing in 1837. coin, Sewarc, Weed, Grcoly, Clay & Co.

ern States wcro loath to break tho compact
with their brethren of the North. They
had seen a party rising to tho height of
power, which put forth ns ono of their
ruling principles tho dogma that no South
cm man should bo permitted to carry with
him into tho common Territory of tho
Union his slave property. They believed
that if tliis dogma was to rule, their rights
wcro trampled upon. Thoy had seen some
sixty member of Congress, of the Repub
lican party," voto in Congress for a resolu
tion providing for tho abolition of slavery
everywhere. Theso things aroused their
fears and they asked somo guarantee for
tho future protection of their Constitutional
rights, against theso men who seemed to
disregard Constitutional obligations. They
appealed to. their fellow citizens of tho
North. Tho Crittenden Resolutions wero
presented as a basis, and tho Democracy
of tho North, with thousands of tho moro
conservative Republicans, urged tho adop
tion of them, or somo similar terms of
conciliation. Tho merchant, tho mechanic,
nnd the farmer, all joined in this appeal,
and sent forward their committees and their
pctitioni, urging Congress to adopt somo
satisfactory mode of adjustment without
resort to the dread alternative of war. In
this effort to "savo tho Union" wo wero
actors, and again and again havo wo and
our Democratio friends been stigmatized
as "Union savers" by tho very men who

wcro voted down by tho Republican party
of tho North, and the sword was appealed
to by tho madmen of the South.

flag of the Union when the Union was in
danger that party which never yet urged

"with bloody hands to hojpitablo grave?"
that party which never yet refused to
furnish men and money to tho General
Government to aid in its vindicating the
rights of our country or resenting insults
offered to tho stars and stripes, that party,
true to tho great principles which it has
over professed, truo to tho Union, spoko
forth as cno man in favor of sustaining the
Government. For doiug this the members
of our party aro now stigmatized as "dough
faces," "cowards assuming tho garb of
patriotism," by these samo men who have
been wont to ridicule Democrats as "Union
savers" by men who hesitate not secretly
to appeal to tho basest pastions of the
human heart to instigato a cowardly mob
to commit depredations upon the persons
and property of their fellow citizens, whoso

been raised in order to ferret out tho au

duties, to say .that I am tho author, and
am both willing and able to assume the re
sponsibility. In order to get at the truth of the inti
mations contained in tho dispatch .referred
to, (and I presumo that is the object aim
ed at by tho appointment of a Committee,
it will bo necessary to so modify your res
olution as to cover all manner of corrupt
ion that may have existed in tho Legisla
ture of 1801. In connection with this mat
ter, I demand tho privilcgo of summoning
tho witnesses or, at least, to namo them ;
and then, if I don't furnish sufficient evi
dence to convict and place iu the Peniten
tiary moro than a majority of tho present
members of tho Legislature, I will stand
branded for tho rest of my life as a wilful
libeller and falsifier.
It is duo to Governor Curtin and his
friends to state, in the most emphatic man
ner, that neither ho nor they had any
knowledge of the dispatch until it was pub
lished. In conclusion, I freely admit that the
dispatch should have been qualified iu one
respect, and that is with regard to tho few
honest men whose lot has been cast among
scoundrels.
Knowing that your constituents, and
tho pcoplo generally throughout tho coun
try will look to you to aid and second mo
in any effort I may mako to rid tho Legis
lature of villiany, I confidently appeal to
you, and through you to that body, for a
modification of the resolution referred to.

Confessing their Object.
Mr. Cassius M, Clay, whom Mr. Lincoln
has sent to Europe to represent this coun
try, has writen a letter to tho London
Times, which is so well dissected by that
journal, whose comments we have publish
cd, that it is unnecessary to iDscrt it. Iu
tho course of that letter, however, Mr. Clay
has a paragraph which, wc presume, must
havo been a slip of pen, probably occa
sioned by forgetting for the moment that
it would find its way back to America.
He is endeavoring to coax John Bull to
forget his money, to "darn the expense,''
and Hand by tho great principle of negro
freedom, and iu doing this he says :
"WE overthrow that POLITICAL
ELEMENT in America, which has all
through our history been tho studied de
nouncer and real hater of the British ua-'
tion, while WE havo been always from the j
oeg.nning tuo ir.eims oi r,.,g a.m. ia-

and a common cause, and therefore a
common interest,"
If that is not leting the cat out of the
bag, wo know not what is. ''HV Lin-
uitlercneo in torm, "we hud a common
hympsttlty a common cause, and a common
iiilciesl."
Wo thank you, Mr. Clay, for this candid
avowal. Wo know that you would never
have dared to say this in America, and wc
aro almo.-t glad that Mr. Liucoln sent you
abroad, if for no other reason than to get
this confession of your designs from your
lips. Day Book,

derer, CotuviN. On Tuesday; Esquire
Collins, of Dunmoro, held an investigation
at tho Mansion House, iu reference to the
murdered woman found in tin vicinity of
Indian spring, near Greenville Her name
was Caroline Corwin. Her husband is
well known in Scranton, haviug relatives
hero. It appears that tho parties never
agreed, and they parted some timo ago.
The husband, whoso namo isWm. Corwin,
went to Greenville, and wrote his wifo that
ho had a job there on the road, and wished
her to join him. She did so, and not re
turning homo, her friends instituted in
quiries, but could not discover her whero
abouts, or any cluo to her. Tho husband
left Grecnvillo, and was arrested on sus
picion of some foul play toward his wife.
IIo was lodged in jail, but after a time
released, Her relatives received an anon
ymous letter, stating if they would go to
a certain spot in the vicinity of Indian
spring, that her body would bo found.
Search was mado but no discovery, Mrs.
Bristol, at whoso houso tha parties stopped,
had a prcscntimeut that sho was murdered
near their own houso, and Sunday, when
walking in the vicinity of tho spring, the
dog discovered tho body, which was in a
terrible stato of decomposition. It appetrs
that his letter to her was found and that
he led her away by false Btatcmonts of

other matters, which ho invented to decoy
her down, Tho body was found with tho

tution, was intended to bo perpetual and,
if ever disolvcd, can only bo disolvcd in
i 'ho manner iu which it was formed, by

Rcso'vcd, That wo approve of the meas
ures adopted by the present national Ad
ministration to put down the treasonable
attempts making by a portion of the peo
ple ot certain Southern States, to break
up and destroy the Union, and, that while

domestic policy, yet for the suppression ol
this trcaouaule conspiracy, wo plcdgo it
our hearty and undivided support.

and'deep regret felt for the untimely de-

Illinois : that his career is the best illus
tration of the value of our Democratic
institutions, and of the Union and Comti
tution, to the support and maiiitainauco of
which lus lest ability and dying efforts
wero given ; and that wo consider his death,
at this momentous crisis of our country's
luslory, as a great national calamity.

uuiumuicc, lor Ualiomng township, a
