General McClellan's Report.
In advance of tho publication of tho He-
port of Gen. McOlcllan of tho campaigns , 1U8,tei1 10 appoint thrco commissioners
on tho Peninsula and in Maryland, recent-1 J?1'0.51'?'1 b? empowered to open ncgotia

readers of tho Columbia Democrat, a ey- inhuman war shall ceaso, and tho Union
nopsij of it mado by a correspondent of tho bo restored upon terms- of fratornity and
New York Commercial Advertiser. It eon
tains a letter from Gen. McClellan to
President Linooln giving his views iu rela
tion to the proper moans of conducting tho
vmr that will bo read with deep interest
by overy true patriot. His many friends
cannot but admire his boldness in speak
iDg so plaidy upon so important a topio
at that particular juncture of public affairs.
It exhibits him not as a military man only
but as a statesman, and had his counsel
prevailed over that of tho radicals, wc
cannot but believe that tho war would havo
boon ended long ere this. Every admirer
of this patriotio General will feci proud of
him after perusing this letter.
5STOur recoipts were cnoouraging for
December. It is gratifying to record tho
Morality and promptitudo with which our
friends and customers respond to tho emer
gencies in support of the Press. Wo hope
many very many, moro will sec tho im
portance of early paying their dues to the
Columbia Democrat,"
Iu this connection, it may bo proper
hcra to state, that with the opening of the
nest volume, it is our intention to make
some important arrangements and valua
ble improvements in tho futuro conduct of
tho Columbia Democrat. Its position as
the organ of tlio Democracy of Columbia
county demands this and tho liberal pat
ronage awarded it, will fully justify the
inoreased expenditure. Wo intend to do
our duty, in all the material efforts of a
faithful journalist, to maintain and perpet
uate the well-established character of this
old organ of the Doraocraey, and wo trust
our friends, in tho futuro as in tho past,
will not be wanting in liberality or patri
otism. Tho highest reward of a public servant
is tho approbation of his constituency.
Tho samo is applicable, to the labors of an
Editor. Let this always be evinced, by
unmistakeablo evidence of tho favor of
thoo for whom wo labor, and not only
will unremitting toil be sweetened, and
vmbition cnoouragod, but in a much great
er degree will usefulness bo enhanced and
inoreased.
The History of the Tory Party
in the United States.
"Wo design laying before tho readers of
tho Columbia Democrat, in our next is
sue a suocint History of tho.Tory Party,
in the United States, compiled from the
Private Papers and Letters of tho Fathert
of tho Republic, through which tho Fed
eral or Tory Party is traced from 1774,
to tho days of the Linooln Despotism. It
is a record of thrilling interest and remark
able truthfulness. Wo invite to its care
ful consideration tho close attention of Dr.
Pee John, and all his "loyal" co-laborers
who are the lineal decendants of tho Old
Tory Party.
Intolerance and Impudence. Dr. John
is growing intolerably insolent because
ho has not been removed from the Post
Offico at Bloomsburg. Moro than half
of the Republicans and nearly all the
Democrats have petitioned for his removal !
A fellow who can boast of his position, in
defiance of the expressed will of two-thirds
of tho people who transact business at the
offico, must indcod havo a largo share of
presumption.
Arrest of a Provost Marshal. We
learn from tho Lycoming Gazette, that on
Wednesday last, Judgo Advooato Turner,
another officer and guard, arrived in
Williamsport, and soon after arrested Capt.f
W. W. WniTE, Provost Marshal of that
District) and conveyed him to Washington.

Every Republican mombcr voted to lay
tho resolution on tho table. Tho vote,
howover i3 full of significance. It shows
that a largo minority of tho prosent Con
gress aro desirous that tho bloody strife,
which has for moro than thrco years par
alyzed the arm of tho best government on
earth, and scattered death and destruction
all around, should cease. And the man
who docs not rejoice at this gleam of re
turning peace, in tho groat council of the
nation, lacks that patriotism which is no
cessary to make a good citizen.
This is but the beginning of tho end.
The whole country is tired of this fratrici
dal war, and the sooner it ends closes
honorably tho better it will bo for tho
nation, and the moro honorable for hu
inanity.
Let tho mass of tho people tako tho mat
ter in hand, and resolve that the men
who are getting money, and placo, and
power out of tho war, Bhall no longer con
trol the nation to its eternal injury.
Then the men in Congress who now turn
a deaf car to all peace propositions, will
gladly listen to those who placed them in
their present positions, and consent that
wo may onco more havo a Union, and that
tho country may bo prosperous and happy.
The Dead Lock in the Senate.
There is a little history bearing on this
quostion. A somowhat similar oaso oc
curred in 1854. when the Senate stood 17
Domoorata to 10 Opposition. Mr. Buck
alow, who was elected a member, having
been sent by tho Presideut to South
Ainoriua as a bearer of dispatches, failed
to reach homo in timu for the meeting of
mo legislature, l ins tied the senate.
But subsequently tho death of a Democratio
membor gave the majority to tho opposi
tion in the oontinucd absence, of Mr. Buck
alew, Nevertheless aDeraoorat,Mr. Wm.
M. Ileister, of Berks couuty was chosen
Speaker by tho vote of Mr. Dursic, oppo
sition of Alleghony, who correctly decidod
that tho Democrats wero entitled to this
offico by the popular will as declared at
tho preceding eleotion. Why can't tho
Democrats be as honest aa wo wero in
1854? Smut Machine.
Dr. Joiin, wilfully perverts tho Record.
In tho first placo, nothing of the kind, to
which ho refers, occurrod in 1854. It was
tn 1855.
Iu the second placo, when tho Senate
met in 1855, it was composed of 31 mem
bers. Mr. Foulkrod was dead and Mr.
Buckalcw was absent, Leaving 15 Dom
ocrats and 15 Know-nothings, with Mr.
Dausie, an old lino Whig, whom these
follows had just defeated for Canal Com
missionor, because he was born iu Scot
land. In return for their know-nothing
treason, Mr. Darsio refused to coalesco
with them, and Senator Huistkk, aDem
oorat was elected Speaker of tho Senate.
-Tho "Smut Machine," of last week,
meanly intimated, that tho Commissioners
had rejused to re-appoint Col. Freeze as
Counsel; Then sneakingly added, ho
would doubtless accept the offioial crumbs.
And all this attempt at defamation, when
all decent peoplo hero well know, that as
Col. F. had just entered upon tho dis
charge of his new duties, as Register and
Itccordor, ho had dcolincd the appoint
ment of Counsel to tho Board of Commis
sioners. Dr. John's abuso, with all re

Annual Messaeo
JLguni by tfes rasll-p'or,
Davis' MoBBago.
The despondent lono which is said to
pervade tho message of tho President of
tho Southern Confederacy has inflated
into exultation tho hopes of many of our
cotomporarics, that thero will bo a speedy
termination of tho war in tho ultcr pros
tration of the South. Wo confess that wo
cannot roflcctingly participate in those glad
some provisions. Tho mossago is to all
appearances, candid and truthful, furnish
ing iu detail a full account of all tho dis
asters roccntly incurred by tho South, but
exhibiting no faltering of spirit, as to tho
chances of ultimate success.
In tho Revolutionary war, when Wash
ington's army was reduced to tho fraction
of a brigade, and despair depressed tho
massos in every section of tho country, ho
oontinucd still hopeful, and declared, if
beaten in tho open country of tho plains,
, i . t e e ,
ho could retiro into tuo fustness or the
mountains and still continue fho contest.
Such, we conccivo, tho spirit .cxhibtcd in
tho messago of Jeff Davis. Its candor and
calmness indicate, that in his opinion at
loast tho South is as yet unconquerable.
This faot it intimates in conjunction with
tho statcmoBt of tho hopelessness of for
eign intervention, assistance or oven sym
pathy. But in spito of tho resolvo, apparcut
through tho whole message, of maintaining'
the conflict, wo could indulgo in hopes of !
peace and conciliation, could tho Prcsi-!
dent hero be persuaded to annul his proo
lamatious of confiscation and cmancipa
tion.
The Governor's Message.
The annual mcssago of Governor Cur

out with a statement of our financial af

Stato debt has, during the fiscal year,)
been reduced 8951,017 04. Tho dobt
due on the 1st of December 1803 is S39,
40G,59G 78. Tho receipts during tho
year were something over four and a quar

The Democratic Party not Dead.
The Springfield (Majs.) Republican is
one of tho fow Administration papers that
s not entirely blinded by fanaticism. Here

which there is more truth and sense than
you can find in the Now York Tribune in
a whole year :
"Thero is a general jubilation in the
Republican papers over the assumed death
of the Democratic party. They had bet
ter not take mat tor granted. A party that
has just thrown moro votes than ever be
fore in evory State except Massachusetts,
and has been beaten only by
tho most extraordinary efforts, can hardly
be conbidored quite dead. The
msral of the political situation of the Re
publican leaders is, that they havo no such
excess of strength as To make it safo for
them to bo reckless or dofiaut as to moans
or measures ; that they are Btill on trial
before tho American peoplo, as to their

to obtain a renew lease of power by de
monstrating that tiioy can and will use it
