Tut Republican of last week, says :
Note it. Let it be noted arid remember
ed that the Democracy of this-' county the
leaders denounce the trial, conviction and
execution of. assassins of president Lincoln
as mtirders."
This article of the Republican is. a fair
specimen of that machine's bungling. First,
the Democracy of ihi county have no lead
ers, we are ail, upon the same open ground
and all. with, one accord, battling for the
great principles of the government. We
have no "clique" to fight and no one of us
gets so much above his business as to as
sume such importance- as the Republican en
deavors vainly to hold in that party. Sec
ondly, we, do not denounce the trial; we
say there was np trial of Lincoln's assassins.
Booth, who was charged with the murde,r
of Lincoln was shot in his arrest, and we
have not called the killing of him murder,
though we have no positive evidence of his
guilt. .Those charged with complicity, nev
er had. a trial. . They wero hurried through
a long examination before a Military Com
mission, appointed and selected with the
purpose of convicting, the witnesses "for
the government" being sent from the coun
try, before allowing a croks-examination of
Ibem. . We hold "let it be noted" that
lhere vvcT teas a trial, such a ' is known to
the Constitution .and laws cf this country.
Thirdly, therq was no conviction ; because
conviction arises from proof ol guilt, and
that proof must be made according to the
usages of law, before a eourl having com
petent jurisdiction, by authority of law, to-j
hear and determine the jrial. Fourthly,
when the Republican speaks of the "convic
tion and execution of the assassins of Pres.
ide.nl Lincoln" we understand him to allude
.to Airs. Sorratt, Payne, Atzerotl and Herold
as such assassins. We hold, as these per
sons never had a trial, in law, were never
. convicied as assassins, by the rules of law,
thai therefore tbere is do legal ground for
B3 to say they were assassins .of President
Lincoln? We say then, in conclusion, that
' knowing as we do, that Lincoln was mur
dered, if his murderer or murderers, or
- these charged with his murder should have
been propeily arraigned before a Court hav
ing under the law, jurisdiction, and .there
convicted, an execution thereupon would
have been proper and would have received
the commendation of . all law-abiJiog peot
ple, f uch as the Democracy of this county.
Dot Ihote persons called by the Republican
"assassins of President Lincoln;" never had
a trial, never teere convicted, though they
wire huvg contrary to the direct provision
of law, and every person engaged ifi the
proceedings, who had power to suspend
and break down the Military Commission,,!
and transfer the prisoners to a Court for
trial, is guilty of murder.
' The Episcopal Recorder is a radical abo
lition sheet ihe . organ of the clique who
made war oo Judge Woodward and is now
publishing a eerids of articles, intended lo
prevent the return to the General Conven
tion of the church in October, of the Bihops
and deputies from the southern elates. Pi talks
about the Houses silting "in judgement up
on individuals sent as representatives," and
a refusal to accept Bishops except as to pre
sent evidence, of "their loyalty to Church
and State." And finally ends by advising
Southern Bishops and members toBtayaway

Djt. John has no sense of propriety, de
cency or generosity. After having been set
rp in business here, by a few gentleman of
t ':, j opposition party; he now kicks them
overboard, arrogates to himself and lo his
own exertions, what '.heir iiifiueiiC? and
countenance did for him; and publishes par
agraph talking about '.lheirir!jr linen"

ta tird that befouls its own nest, are coh

v.c expect to see in the next
Dr. John and his "Dirty Linen'
There are no depths of dirt, degradation,
and meannesa ld which some men cannot
sink. Here, "mark me, Horatio," we have
an eminent example. Here is a man as tee
know, and as some of his lriends begin to
remember, raised from the cess-pool of de
served poverty, smiting at, and biting the
hand that raised him. We have no hand
in the qnarrela between Dr. John and the
people of jiia own party ; and no feeling,
other than that which must be .experienced
by every right OiindCd person, when poison
is the pay for kindly patronage, and dirt is
tendered in paj ment of the dollars advanced
by a friendly patron.- This man, doctor john,
it seems, was fostered and cared for by cer
taiu free-hearted citizens, of this town, (bnt
which free-heartedness in this instance was
wofully misplaced,) until he has made dol
lars. Now mark the miscreant ! He talks
to his patrons, la the very men who built
him up, about "dirty linen''! He assert3
that they have exacted from him the last
cent ol their dues that is, of the money
they advanced him lo start his machine
Suppose this to be the case ; why should
he object id paying his just due.; especially
after having been, through their kindness,
placed in a position to pay them ? One
would suppose that, lo be lilted from a po
sition which, to style obcure, would be
praise ; to.be, in fact, raised from the dirt ;
to b-3 furnished with money, a thins unkaowu
to the recipient before ; to have bread ready
buttered, presented lo hi mouth, would
have engendered some feelm of gratitude.
Bui this creature turns upon his patrons and
talks of Ibe "pound cf flesh," and "dirty
linen." As we all know, an inrate is com
monly a liar. Il is so in this instance. He
has not repaid th money he borrowed in start
in? his mess. To his infamona inoratii nr
he adds the common sin of the common
robber. Let no cnau ' boiler before he is out
of the woods". '
Wk have always believed and taught that
the people are not, in their sober moments,
heartily supporting the radical crusade ; but
that they are deceived, deluded and misled
by men who in former limes were preach
ers of the gospel and spiritual guides to
their flocks.
As an example in point we refer to the
action of the Old and New School Assem
blies of ihe Presbyterian, where the sin of
sece.'ion, rebellion, slavery, &c. &c. mu.t
be confessed and repented of before the
Southern people can be restored to church
fellowship."" That measure was carried, be
cause the clergy and laity do not vote by
order, and the men lately and aptly term
ed ' Blood Hounds of Zion," could, there
ftte, control tbe entire body. The result is,
christian brotherhood, kindness and charity
are no where found in the proceedings ol
the Assemblies nothing but the dark spirit
of puritan persecution and the "stand off
I am holier ihan thou" doctrine. Il would
be foolish and disgraceful as political action,
what then 'is it in a body, claiming to be
eclesiastical, not to say christian.'
The same thing was attempted in the
Episcopal General Convention in 1862. On
a test vote the radicals carried seven States by
the vote of tbe clergy, voting by orJers ;
but could carry only two States by the votes
of the lay deputies. It is an important and
significant fact. The preachers are wrong,
the people are conservative - Union-loving,
hpnesf The lime for gospel preaching
is returning, and a refreshing of the Holy
Spirit will return to answer trie prayers of
those Feven thousand who have not bowed
the knee to Baal. Let the people thank
God and take courage, for the lime of their
deliverance is at hand.
The comptroller of the currency ! a cer
tain Mr. Freeman Clarke, writes a .letter to
a Connecticut Bank man about the prop
osition introduced into the Legislature of
that wooden-nutmeg abolition-loyal State,
proposing to tax the 7-30's ; and lakes oc
casion thereupon-to argue against the res
toration policy of President Johnson, for
fear the South migbl help the radicals repu
diate ihe.'mgreat national blessing-' of an
enorinoup debt.
Now, it is a significant fact, that the only
parties, who, so far, have proposed lo re
pudiaie are Wendell Phillips and loyal Con
neciicut. No Democrat or Democratic Slate
has offered or advocated repudiation, nor
has any Southern man or State ; and it is
certainly a gratuitous insult on the part
of Clarke -to assume that Democrats or
Southern men would follow such scurvy
leaders as Pnillips and his Connecticut con
freres. -
Bat the coolest thing in the comptroller's
letter in view of the fact that with one or.
two exceptions, all (he ?:loyal States-" have
repeatedly "repudiated or nullified consti
tutional acta ot Congress" is the follow
ing: - '
"Il is a ource of regret lhat any North
ern Slate should for a single moment coun
tenance an attempt to repudiate or nullify a
constitutional act cf Congrees, and one, too.,
that was deemed necessary to preserve the
integrity of the oa'.ion." -
If "Northern States" had always faith
fully fulfilled their constitutional obligations,
never nullified actu of Congress nececsary
to preserve the integrity of the Union, nev
er repudiated their obligations as one of the
members of the Confederacy, we should
have bad no civil war, no national debt, no
aaven-tbirties, and last and least, no comp
troller of the currency.

Trying" to Raise a'Dust.
The Negro Suffrage men are at their old
game. When they were about to start the
"Republican"' party, the wire-workers de
nied that they were 'Republicans," vowed
ihat they never would go with that parly,
oh ! no ! nhey only wanted to fuse with it
for one election, so as to beat the dastard
"loco focos." Well they did fuse with it
and succeeded in doing jost what they in
tended to do ; they carried over their follow
ers into the arms of so called "Republican
ism" Very well. The Democrats, then,
accused these leaders with a design to abo
litionize the "Republican" party. Oh ! how
vigorously and"fiercely they denied it ! How
angry they became at the bare mention of
(he word Abolition! What! They become
Abolitionists? Never, never ! and if their
party would endorse ihe doctrines of Abo
litionism, ihey would "have done with it''
forever. Such were their protestations ;
but, no sooner did they find, il safe (politi
cally speaking) to announce themselves
Abolitionist, than they did so, and to day
there are but few of them who do not glory
in the bhame ol their inconsistency. Thus
have the masses of the opposition lo the
Democracy been led, 6tep by step, toward
the accomplishment of the ultimate design
of the plotters against ihe perpetuity of the
Republic. From the very day when the
independence of ihe colonies was establish
ed, there were men in this country who op
posed a republican form of government.
They wanted, and now clamor for, a strong,
that is, a consolidated, an imperial govern
ment. They have so far succeeded in their
purposes as to establish a military despot
ism, which sets aside the Constitution and
Laws of1 the
country, and substitutes for
(hem the will of a tribunal, in the choice of
which ihe people have not been permitted
lo take any part. In order to sustain this
usurpation, ihey find it nece6aay to give
the ballot to the ignorant colored people,
whose votes they expect to control, and
whose enfranchisement, they believe, will result
in anarihy and the consequent justification of
the permanent establishment of a monarchical
form oj government. In order to lead their
adherents into this scheme of Negro Suf
frage, they try to embitter them against
Democrat, by getting up filsu iesuea, by
denunciation, falsehood and vilification.
Thus they hope to raise a dust under cover
of which they will be able to manoeuvre the
whole "Republican" parly into the lines of
the Negro Suffrage men. In view of this
deceit, we implore the people to be on their
guard. If you wail till the Republican")
leaders' show their hand, you will be bound
band and foot. Note is the time to defeat
them in their nefarious purpose. iVctf U
the accepted lime lor all men who love
their country and hope for the endurance
of the Republic, to strike handa and vow
lhat the Negro SnfTrage Anarchists shall not
be successful. Forewarned is forearmed!

following facts relative to Ihe arrest, trial
and imprisonment and death of the excel

He was a resident of Montour county, in
a District in which several supplementary
drafts had been made, and from which the
drafted men generally ' fled. He having a
wife and two young children dependant up
on Lim, remained at his business, and at
last the fatal wheel turned his name to the

He vas a christian and. entertained con
scientious scruples against fighting. ' He
was drafted in the pltice of men who had
kept out of the way and never reported,
and he believed that thofe first drafted
should be first sought. They were permit
ted to escape but hewas arrested. He pa t
in his pica at Troy, but was answered that
he was "no Quaker,'' and fha plea was
treated contemptuously.
He was sent lo Camp Cirriin and after

Bonds and Taxes.
It is beginning lo enter the minds of the
poor and working classes of the country that
upon them only rests the great weight of
public debt, in the shape of taxes. They
begin to perceive that, in the form of the
high rents, they are paying the property tax
of the landlords ; that in buying their cloth
ing and household conveniences of various
kinds, they are paying over arid over again
the merchants' various licences and ihe
manufacturers' taxes ; lhat fn buying their
food they are paying the farmers' tax ; lhat
in making essential and unavoidable jour
neys they have to pay the railroad tax ; that
in sickness the)' have lo foot the physicians'
licence ; and lhat, in the very use of the
Government currency, they have to pay the
bank lax which the suppression of the Stale
banks threw upon the people. Capital may
advance the money' for them, but labor e
ventually has to fool all the bill?.
Against the state of affairs there appears
to be no absolute remedy. The burden,
however can be greatly lightened when
capital is sufficiently generous and enlight
ened to compromise and share with labor
both the losses and the profits. Through
the syMem of wages paid to those who la
bor trfe tax burdens are rendered heavy or
light as capital sees fit to determine. It is
too much ihe rule when labor is abundant
for capital to reduce wages, so lhat the
working man has all the tax to work out,
and what should have been profit on his
skill or energies goes to fill ihe coffers of
the employer. In tbe present state of ihe
country, while the prices of food and every
thing rnquired by laboriug men continues
at a most inflated standard, it is wrong lo
pull down wages merely lo increase the
profits of ihe rich. The lax weight will be
felt sensibly enough by every workingman,
without reducing wages, until such time as
there may be a corresponding rednction in
prices of food, merchandize, manufactures,
Sec. The working men of this country are
not prepared for, and will bitterly resist any
attempt to establish, the outrageous En
glish system of low rales of compensation
lor labor.
It is claimed by some of the journals in
the interest ol the dorainent political party
that the national debt is a floating: capital
upon which business projects can be based
and carried out. If this be true, why is it
that' the Government bond- are not then
