Columbia Republican, Dr. you aro all wrong again. The 11 Freeman's Journal" of New York, says Ellis B. Schnarle, was in that Citv. on tho 4th of May. Call you that "Dixio." .Now had you ono particle of honor in your noddle, you would, at least in iustieo to your readers,) correct tbo misrepresenta tion. And while on the subject, tell your readers, that Mr. Schnable. liko his friend Governor Packer, was no lt Breck inridge Democrat," but an ardent friend of Judgo Douglas. CSrMr. Thaddous Slovens, a radical I Republican member of Congress from' Pennsylvania, admittod, in tho IIouso on Monday, that ho was not in favor of re storing the Constitution and tho Union, if slavery was to bo maintained also. This is tho cry of tho Abolitionists from all quarters, and of overy stripo and figuro of tho Republican organization, and of the traitor Democrats who havo sold out to tho frco negro concern. ''No Con stitution as it is, no Government as it was,'' is tho watchword of tho Abolition elans from Maino to Kansas. Wo rejoice that they havo at last been smoked out. Wo now havo a clear field and an open contest, and "ho who runs may road." We shall havo no more dodging, beat ing behind tho bush, sham "Union Tick ets," or humbug campnigns. Every man who votes hereafter will know what lie is voting for and against. If ho i3 for tho Constitution and the country, ho will vote tho Democratic Tiokct if ho is opposed to both he will join anything in opposition, as he has no business in tho Democratic rank3. Wo now understand ono another. Communication. Special Congressional Election. The special election for a member of Con gress in tho Bucks and Lehigh district, to fill tho vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Cooper, will be hold next Saturday, May 24th. The Democrats have nomina ted John D. Stiles, of Lehigh, and tho Re publicans Gcorgo Lear, of Bucks. Tbishas always been regarded as a close and doubtful district. In the full of 1858, it elected Henry 0. Longneckcr, Republican. At tho election of 1800, Dr. Cooper beat Longneckcr 143 votes out of a poll of 21,383. Both parties aro exer ting themselves to carry tho dutrict on the 4th inst. Our Domocratio friends appear confident of success. Hon. CnARLFs Jared Inqersoll died in Philadelphia on tho 14th inst,, in tho 80th year of his ago. Ho was a Demo cratic member of Congros3 from 1813 to 1815, and from 1841 to 1847. After his retirement from Congress, in 1815, Pres ident Madison appointed him United States District Attorney in Philadelphia, in which capacity ho served for a long peri od. Ho was an able Constitutional Law- jer, and a fine scholar. Ilia most ambi tious literary work, and tho one on which his famo as an author rests, is a "History of tho War of 1812,' in four volumes, publiched from 1845 to 1852, which has become a standard American Historical work. The pair of sap-hoads who chuckcl over the editorial department of tho Mtltonian, last week, deemed it proper to attempt a slur upon tho Columbia Democrat. Our brief rcferenco, in a lato issue, to their Abolition Chieftain, John C. Fremont, has excited their morbid sensibilities, and set tbein out again abusing Mr.BuonANAN. Wo need barely hero refer to the fact, that about this timo last year, wo made tho then Sonior Editor of that dirty concern take lp tho wator,for slandering Mr. Buchanan, nd public opionion has einco driven him into retirement. Greenies, judging for tho future by tho past, had you not better bo admonished ! ! Wuir don't Dr. John print tho "Nation al War Platform," as enunciated by an almost unanimous voto of Congress at tho Extra Session. Columbia Democrat, Tho above rational question was pro pounded to tho Editor of tho Republican, over two weeks ago, and as ho is cjther linablo or unwilling to answer it, wo give the public its solution. It is becauso his ''no party-paxty" friends havo twice sinco its adoption, repudiated its principles in Congress. They have thus given tho lio to their own official record, and voted that this War is not to maintain the Constitution J as it is, asd rcstoro the Union as it was, What baso hypocrisy 1 i Death of Gen. Wm. II. Keim. Gen. William II Keim, lato Surveyor General of this Stato, died of a combined attack of typhoid fever and dj'sentary at tho Brady House, in Harrisburg; on Sunday last, in tho 49th year of his ago. Gen. Keim held tho position of Major General of tlio Penn sylvauia troops in tho threo months' ser vice, serving under Gen. Patterson. Last fall ho was appointed a Brigadier General by tho Prcsideut, which ho accepted, and resigned the office of Surveyor General. Ho was present at the taking of Yorktowu, aud also at tho battle of Williamsburg, but too ill to participate in tho latter. His remains will bo taken for intemont today to Reading, of whioh city ho was a native and citizen. "If we cannot alter thlnj, By Gd wo change tholr Namc, Sir." This old doggerel of John. Q. Adams', written during tho contest between his father and Mr. Jefferson, i3 a etandingtoxt for tho descendants of tho old Feboralists. Whenever their own namo becomes odi ous, thoy resort to another, not to "alter things," but juct to cheat justico with an alias. ".'2 life hng Democrat," ltA Dem ocrat of tho old school," or simply "Dem ocrat," always having reputable antecedents aro drawn in by sorao old Federalist or modern Republican, whonovcr thoy want to cheat tho world behind a masked bat tory. Thoy aro regular gucrillag. One of the "Breokinridcie Seoess iONisxa." A Democrat named Thomas Donaldson, residing in Kittanning, Pa., is tho owner of six houses occupied by families of soldiors in the war. For some timo past ho lias collected no rent from his tenants, and intends to permit them to remain until tho war is over and yet Mr. Donaldson is a Democrat who voted for Breokiuridge 1 Wo should liko to havo an Abolitionist pointed out capable of such patriotism. A Just Triute. Gen. McClcllan's re cent victories have had tho effect of brine ing his detractors to their knees. On Fri day last, Mr. Lovcjoy offered, and tho Houso adopted a resolution tondoring sin cere thanks to Gen. McClellan for tho display of those high militarti aualitics which secure important results with but utile sacrifice of human life. What an exalted tributo is this to tho military skill and tho humanity of tho Commanding General, and what a rebuke to the faction which attempted to displace him from the command of tho army. Tho country can now bco tho brilliant fruits of mouths of tedious preparation in organizing tho ar my and fitting it for tho achievement of these glorious results ; and while thanking tho commanding General, it cannot but admire his wonderful courage aud palienco undar assaults that would have unnerved a Ices a resolute mau ; nor can it avoid despising the cabal engaged in tho plot to degrade him. Southern Pouta to be Opened. Tho President lias issued a proclamation declaring that tho blockade of the ports of Beaufort, Port Royal and New Orleans shall so far ccasa aud determine, from and after tho first day of Juno next, that com mercial intercourse with thoso ports, ex cept as to persons and thing3 aud infor mation contraband of war, may from that timo bo carried on, subject to tho law3 of tho United States and to the limitation and in pursuanco of tho regula tions prescribed by the Secrotary of the Treasury. Governor Spraque, who has arrived at Washington from Gen. McOIcllan's ar my, Bays that our loss in killed, wounded and missing at tho battle of Williamsburg was about two thousand, and tho enemy's full a3 much. The fight at West Point, kfi says, was heavier than was generally supposed, iuvo hundred ot our men wore taken prisoners, the rebels taking advan tago of their landing, and tho loss would, doubtless, havo been greater, but for the fortunato position of our gunboats. Charles D. Hineline, Esq., lato pub- lisbor of tho Pennsylvania State Sentinel, at Harrisburg, died, on Friday last in Philadelphia. Ho was Superintendent of Public Prtnting under Governor Packer, and previous to his political career in this State, edited tho Domocratio organ in Camden, New Jersey, whore ho was also Mayor, and a member of the New Jersey Legt3laturc. Ho was a native of Easton, Pa. General McClellan. Gen. McClel lan, although within thirty miles of Rich mond, suspended all military operations on the Sabbath, that ho aud his men might enjoy tho day of rest. To do this in tho very faco of an ungodly world, and the risk of being charged with being righteuos overmuch, if not of neglcciing his public duties, required a high degreo of moral courage. If ho has God for him, ho may afford to disregard what man can do against him. lie has violent and unscrupulous enemies, sonio of them in high places of power ; but wo havo faith to bclievo that tho God whom he honours will briug him off triumphant. t I'or Tiie Cold on Democrat. Third Chapter of Matthew. Tranttattd from the original llrtck. UV A11IND, THE SCRIBE. 1. In thoso days canio John the printer, publishing in the wilderness of Columbia. 2. And saying, repent yo Democrats, for tho kingdom of Abraham is at hand, 3. For this is ho that was spoken of by the Prophet Soward, sajing, tho voico of ono crying in tho wilderness of Illinois, prcparo yo tlio way of Abraham, make his paths straight, for an ''irrepressible coiilia" is at hand, 4. And tho samo John had his raiment of negro's wool, and a doctor's girdle about his loins: aud his moat was tho lltpulli can and the Post Office. 5. Then went out to him tho Republi cans of Bloom, and all tho Know Nothings of Cattawissi, aud all tho Abolitionists in tho region round about Millvillo, 0. And wcro instructed of him in the Republican, thereby confessing their sins, 7. But when ho saw many of tho office seekers and turn coat Democrats come to him, ho said unto thorn, 0 generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flco from tho wrath to como ? 8. Bring forth thorcforo votes meet for repentance, 0. And think not to Eay within your selves wo havo Abraham to our father : for I say unto you, that I am able of these people to raiso up voles unto Abraham. 10. And now also tho ax is laid unto the roots of office-holders : thorcforo every man who hath not shown himself to bo a good Linconitc shall bo hewn down and oast from office, aud thoro shall he weep ing and gnashing of teeth. 11. I indeed shall visit my wrath and fury upon you : but ho that comcth after ino and whom I support is mightier than I, whoso shoes I am not worthy to boar, and tho crumbs from whose tablo I desiro : ho will scourgo you from high places, aud cleanse the templo by putting in such SUwarls as Frank and John. 12. Whose fan is in his hand, and ho will thoroughly liuo his nest, and gather his chosen ones iulo his bosom; but he will pursue his opponents with unquench able fury. 13. Then comcth William from Millvillo to Bloomsburg uuto John, to bo instructed of him. 14. But Johu forbade him, saying, I havo need to bo instructed of thco, and comcst thou to me ? 15. And William answering said unto him, suffer it io Ic so now ; for thus it be comcth us to fulfil our master Greeley's will. Then ho suffered him. 1G. And William, when ho was fully in structed went up straightway out of Bloomsburg : and lo, the South was open-' cd uuto him, and ho saw tho negroes flee ing unto him likocojos, and darkening tho air round about him, 17. And lo a voice from Washington, saying, this is my beloved poliey, in which I am Well pleased ; follow yo it.

They imagined that thoy had struck tho righ vein when thoy organized tho "Loyal League'' and seleted Ilosca Carpenter as tho proper instrument to go about tho Stato organizing lordges nc fivo dollars each. But to their utter confusion, aftor Mr. Capron had exhausted his ingauuity in drafting a constitution to deprive tho uususpecting mases of tho privilego of choosing whom they would elect to office, and lo sccuro that power to a select cliquo of managing politicians to their uttor con fusion thoy discovered that thoy had en trusted tho secret to a leaky vessel, and thattha Patriot and Union, and through it the public, becamo awaro of tho dirty conspiracy in whioh they wcro engaged. Confused, but not dismayed at this expo sure, they tried to wrigglo out of the trap in which thoy had caught themselves- somo boldly denied tho csisteonco of tho now order, othor3 admitted and justified it, and others, agaiu, tried to look sweetly iunoeont and ignorant. It will bo recollected that there was a mectiug of Repjbliean editors hero last winter. Not long after, tho "Loyal Leaguo'' made its appearance, and was exposed to merited contempt Now we havo another meeting of Republicans ed itors, and it is fair to conoludo that somu secret des'gn was set on foot. Wo don't pretend to guess what it was. It may havo been merely a meeting of mutual condo lence or it may havo boon for the purpose of reprimanding tho Telegraph for disclo sing tho secret of tho "Loyal League" or to raiso funds to enable Ilosca Carpen ter to find out where "Ann live aud travels" or to compel tho plunder-patriots to subscribe largely to tho Ropublioan party to carry the next election or to petition tho government for the suppression of'Dem- ocratic newspapers or to select candidates for Auditor General or Surveyor General. The meeting may have been for ono of these purposes or for something else equally objectionable ; but a3 it wai conducted with all possible sccreoy, wo may ha cer tain that it was for somo purposo that would not bear the light of day.
