. FOB PRESIDENT IS 1864,
GEOIIGE B. M'CLELLAN,
Subject to the. Decision of the Democratic
National Convention
1 The Democratic State Suavcntion-
The harmony . which characterized the
proceeding's of the lata Democratic State
Convention, and the general we miuht
probably say with troth universal satisfae
lion which those proceedings have given, ia
the most auspicious si;?n of the determina
lion of the party to conquer in the coming
Presidential election which has vet occur-
red. It i evidence at least that the Democ
racy 61 Pennsylvania are actuated by a
ingle motive the rescue of the nation
moved by a single purpose its- achieve
ment through the overthrow of the party in
power and the re-establishment of Demo
craiie principles and measures in the ad
ministration of the government. This idea
seems to have governed the late Convention
in all its proceeding ; and if, fortunately,
the same epiril and harmony shall prevail
at Chicago, and the delegates from the dif
ferent States represented there in National
Convention shall return to their respective
homes filled with the determination to
work unceasingly and with confidence for
victory they cannot fait of achieving it.
Tin is oar Jirm conviction. There has been
a favorable change ia public sentiment
within the past year, and the people are
last coming to tbe conclusion thai the n
tiott can only be saved by a change of ad
ministration a political as well as person
al change. , Let a work steadily Democrat
ic friend let us work in lailh speak our
sentiments boldly, pnsh on the colnmr.
bravely, and we shall defeat the Abolition
candidate, whoever he may be, and sue
the Republic. . r . O

Uited-States, behaves himself peaceably
and acts all the while as a good citizen,
nd yet he i denounced as a reptile not fit
to live. Why is this? Because be will not
support the negro policy of Abe Lincoln.
This is the som-total of his offense. No
matter bow good a character he may pos

litical opponent ratiy bear, still the one that
loes in for inevitable negro is in soil With
the loyalists, while Ihe one who does not is

thorizes the- Secretary of the Treasury to
sell the gold in bis possession some twen
ty millions of dollars to the highest bid
der, receiving greenbacks in pay. Thus
. the Government itself is in the market gam
bling in gold, and buying with coin, its own
depreciated money, and this is called fi
nahceering !" It ia liie the man who is
considered nearl , insolvent, settling with
his creditors at 50 cents on the dollar. Just
think of '.hi ooce great country, baying its
. rwn depreciated greenbacks, at sixty or
eeveuly per cent, discount! What a dis
.graceful position we occBpy in tbe eyes of
other nations, and all because we trnsted
.the keeping of the country to a set of hair
brained negro worshippers.

We have intelligence from Charleston

mounted six rifle guns in the casements of
Fort Samter, which - are directed to bear
upon the channel, and therefore prevent
the advance of the Union gunboats, if nv
of them should venture so rah an under
taking, which it is not at all likely they will.
Deserters from Charleston say that the fire
of tbe Union guns has done some damage

Oor exchange papers from every direc
tion publish accounts of collisions thai
have taken place between etiizen and sol
diers. Scores of both have been killed and
many more wounded in these disjjracefa!
broils.. One day we have an tccoont of
soldiers forcing open , prison doors and re
teasing the prisoners ; aaain we read of the
"sacking'' of th:s and that hotel or tavern
by soldiers ; then again we are informed
that certain printing offices have been ''gu:
led" by ihee same genitenieu. Riots and
afsanhs are. numerous in all sections o( the
country," and if not rebuked and-checked
by the Mrong arm of the i(overnment, we
will soon witness a state of afiairs that will
eclipse the worst scenes of the French rev
olution. 'It is time something was done to
put a stop to this lawlessness, and it our

Republican editors more than any other
men I iving are responsible for the various
outrages that have been committed by sol
diers. For the last year or morn, the Abo
lition press, when unable to answer the sol
id arguments of Democratic editors, would
bristle up, and, as a kind of intimidating
threat to Democrats, yelp from their ken
nels just vait till the soldiers come home;"
thus intimating that our brave soldiers,
when at home, could do as they pleased,
and set law and order and decency at uefi
ance, and set le their private grief by brute
force, it was an invitation to the soldiers
to perjnre themselves by violatiti the oah
they had taken when 'hey enli-ted. It was
asking the soldiers to commit lawless act,
and thus disgrace themselves and their uni
forms. Not lung since a pompous Major
General, during the delivery oi an Aboli
tion, negro-equality speech, used thete
words "Wait till the soldiers come home
they will settle accounts with the copper
hestfs " What was this but an invitation
to Republican soldiers to commit murder
and aron The Major General who couM
thus incite soldiers to acts of violence shod
have his straps torn from his shonlders.
Bui yet the man who made these remarks
stands high in the administration circles
It is not often that a true soldier will be
guilty of a dithonorable act, lor he raspects
the uniform he wean and the oath he has
taken ; but sometimes it has happened that
the more ignorant of them have, by taking
a hint from bad advisers,, degraded them
selves, by committing unlawful and infa
mons acts. ..Their advisers, then, and not
tbe soldiers, are the more guiliy parties
and tgauisl them public opinion should be
directed and the finger of scorn pointed
Soldiers we repeal, will not be guilty, of
low and disgraceful acts, provided they are
not tampered with by the liars and coward
who attempt to use them for their own dev
ilish purposes. -

BormiiD to Death. On Friday evening
lart, three raftsmen from Cameron county,
were lying with their raft in ihe West
Branch of the Susquehanna river, opposite
Northumberland, and after having spent a
part of the evening in the borough of Nor
thomberland, they went back to their raft,
built a fire in their cabin, made a straw bed
near the stove, and laid down to lake a
night's rest. About midnight the straw
caught on -fire and consumed the entire
cabin. The unfortunate men no: awakening
until one of them was burned to death, his
feet and legs being burned up to his
knees, and his bands and arms up to his
elbows. He was buried in Northumberland
after the Coroner's Inquest was held. The

Major Gkneral Johv C. Frcmost is
causing quiie a good deal of fluttering in
the Abolition ranks, in relation to the next
candidate for the Presidency, in that party.
Mr. Lincoln and friends are fearful of Fre
mont and his party. Fremont has already
secured the influence of Horace Greele) 's
Tribune and several other papers of like
Abolition notorie'y. The German element
of that party is also doing service for the
Rocky Mountain boy and Wooly Horse.
Abraham Lincoln is destined to be shelved,
which is proper and right.

who possessed sound and liberal views,
and who dared to execute them. We have

We have been having a great deal of
stormy weather ia this section, this Spring ;
keeping the roads as much unsettled as they
are with the army of the Polom?c. This is
the 6'.h day of April, out of which we have
had three days stormy weather. The Month
of March was a very rough, open month ;
hard on the winter grain; making it look
more discouraging than it has for several
years past at this period of the season ; yet
we may expect to see a tolerably good
crop.

The action of the late Democratic State
Convention iut suits the country. It has
fairly taken all the wind out of the Repub
lican sails. The entire proceedings were
such as to give our enemies no chance
whatever to misrepresent the Democratic
pariy. The resolu:ions, not much over a
square, are pointed and to the purpose; not
attempting to settle or discuss matters which
properly belong to the National Chicago
Convention, which will astemble on the
4th of July next. Everything that was done
was characterized with thai harmony and
good feeling rarely found in Conventions
composed of so many different beads.
Upon the whole, we view it as an indica
tion of an early return of those better days,
while we lived, and the country prospered,

more steady devotion to tbe Union cause, or
has been exceeded in sell-denial and gal
lantry in ihe field. He has been seriously
wounded six times, and hadsix'eett horses
shot under him In battle." Yet this gallant

Thr Emperor ol France pays his soldiers
in American gold. Four millions of dollar
have just arrived in France for that purpose.
'Louisville Democrat. ,
Tha! is more than our government does.
It pays its soldiers in depreciated paper
paper that is worth 35 per cent, less than
gold. The government has a large amount
of gold on bacd, but instead of paying it
out to the soldiers, sells it to tbe speculators
in Wall street at a great premium! The
gold is for the borders of 5-20 bonds and for
speculators, while the army is obliged to
take depreciated paper.
The New York World, of Saturday, says :
The shiftless expedients of onr honorable
Secretary of '.he Treasury in regard to the
price of gold have killed the export trade
of the port. Tbe fluctuations in tbe official
price lor gold certificates are not to be ac
counted for on aoy known principle of fi
nance, and are in opposition lo common
sense. The greatest gambler in the price
of gold is the Treasury Department. The
export trade of the port, and the remittan
ces of government bonds to Europe, are
brought to a standstill by the injudicious fi
nancial measures of the government.
Labor and Idleness. Notwithstanding
that mechar.ical labor in Washington city
commands from three to four dollars per
day, the city is overrun by a set of stout
armed and sturdy aspirants for place, who
will take a low grade clerkship worth J?60
per annum, or even a watchrran's si:uat'nn
raiher than earn more money by honest toil
The Government should make it a necessa
ry recommendation to appointments to civil
office, that the applicant should serve at
least three years in the army. That would
empty Washington of office-beggers, if it
did not fill the ranks of the army.
"The Union as it Was." The use of thi
simple phrae has been Ihe course of much
abuse of the Democratic party by Abolition
ists. They have probably forgotten that it
was made the occasion of three cheers at
the reception of President Lincoln at Pitts
burgh, while on his way to Washington.
Men are no w called traitors for advocating
"the Union as it was."
A Colambut correspondent of the Cleve
land Plain Dealer says the result of the
Ohio Democratic Convention was a signal
triumph for the M'Clellao element, and that
paper, in an editorial article, avers that the
rote of the National Convention will be
overwhelming for M'Clellan. We are of
the same opinion, and consider now his
nomination and election a "fixed fact,"
Cheap Patriotism. At a military post
where some 8,000 new recruits have been

writes that "out of all this number of fresh

The officer therefore concludes that Loyal
League profusions is a very cheap patriot

for a long time been very much maltreated (
by the military. Mr. Eden was to make a
speech to them and apprehending a diffi
culty many of Ihe citizens came to the
meeting armed. Mr. Eden learning this,
declined to speak and did all he could to
prevent a disturbance. Afier he left the
town, the fiht began. Eight were killed
and about twenty wounded. The military
arrested thirty or forty. Everything is quie
now.
From Chattanooga there is intelligence
that the Confederate cavalry is in force at
Red Clay and other places on Taylor'.
Ridge. The appearance of their line is not
so threatening as ii was a short time since.
General Sherman has gone to Nashville.
The guerrillas have seized a trading boat
on the Mississippi below Memphis. The
crew was captured but paroled.
Gen. Grant's return from Fortress Monroe
is not yet announced. General Ord is to go
to western Virginia. He ranks Sigel; but
they will command the army together.
The Federal troops intend abandoning
Brownsville and all the posts on the Rio
Grande. This occupation has cost millions
I of money, whilst it has not availed in the
least to stop the coitoa trade betweeu Texas
and Mexico.
