Tennessee Election.
The late election in Tennessee resulted
in the election of only two radicals to Con
gress, the balance being Democrats, and
men holding liberal and conservative views.
,Ia the Upper East Tennessee district N G.
Taylor is chosen ; Horace Majrnard in the
Kooxville district ; Aa Faulkner, over Mr.'
Stoke, in the Chaltauoo ga district ; VV. B.
Campbell in Nashville district ; D. B. Thom
as Clarksville district ; and Col. Hawkins,
over Mr. Etheridge, who is imprisoned, in
Wrst Tennessee. It is said that Maynard
and Hawkins can be depended on as sup
porters ol a liberal national policy, and it is
thought ihatTa) lor is a man of the same
school. .They aie Southern gentlemen, and
- with them the people of Tennessee hare
entrusted their liberties and care. In them
they have abiding confidence; and need
have So fear in their ability, integrity and
honesty. The peop'e of Tennessee are not
Abolitionized, neither are iBey carried awsy
with ty fanatical notions that those incen
diaries from Massachusetts and Connecticut
have teen trjing to instile into their mindt
during the last lour years and more, but
bav tie came ideas of a free Government
and the manner of administering it, that
they bad j eari ago, and" no doubt have se-
cted men who will truly represent the
,Jh and people of Tennessee in the next
Copress. Negro equality and Negro suf
frage belong to the Phillips and the So ro
llers. Delegate Elections.
We wish the Democrats throughout the
county to remember that Saturday, the 26lb
inst., is the day fixed for holding the dele
gate elections. We hope every Democrat
who has the inteiesi of bis country at heart
will attend and assist in selecting delegates
who will truly represent the people in the
coming county Convention. We should
like to tie a fair and full expression of the
wishes of the people ; and the candidates
Dominated to be those actually desired by a
majority of the Dtmocrats of the county.
When the people do not attend the dele
gate elections; when tbey pay no attention
to electing delegates, they throw awsy a
great privilege, and entrust that which they
ehould all do, to the hands of a few. We
hope ihey will not do so this time.. This
will be one of the most important. Conven
tions held in this codnty for a long time,
and we would therelnre appeal to the peo
ple to give it their early and earnest atten-
lion. " - . .
The prospects for the Democracy begin
to brighten in alt quarters. The party still
lives, and moves and has a being. It is yet
destined to again make its power felt. The
Govern re tnt, marked out, reared and nor
' lured under Democratic care and protection,
is soon again to be placed back in the bands
i of its paternity. From all parts of the
country we have :he most cheering in tell i
' gence of the Democratic party bravely bat-
tling against fanaticism and bigotry that
now tula the hour. .The old flag of Democ
! racy waves high in the air, and underneath
; ha ample folds our hosts are rallying to the
! battle. God speed :bem in the noble work
of regenerating and difenlbralling our conn
try, and may their earnest efforts to result in
the complete rescue of our beloved land
liom the desolation and ruin which four
long years of aboUiionroisrole bat impend
ed over it. Democrats, attend to the good
work. .
"Oil, H ill, cr Chisa." The above
chaste, elegant, and moral motto has been
adopted at the works of the Green Creek
Fetroleum Company. The worshipful Pres
ident of that interesting institution is some
what famous for his want of belief in roost

scriptures, and the motto adopted is there
fore somewhat inconsistent. Perhaps bis

'. Abolitionists ts. Soldien, .
The Abolition leaders of this county. are
considerably exercised about the soldiers,
feariDg theywill not endorse negro equality
and negro suffrage at the ballot-box this
Fall. . We were perfectly satisfied with the
army return of vo'es made to this county at
our last genera election. In spite of all the
trickery, deception, blaroy, and manipula
tion, the gallant and brave soldier, George
B. McCiellan, bad a handsome majority,
out of so few a number cast, from the Co
lumbia county boya. A great many sol
diers in (he army would have voted had
they had an. opportunity. And on the other
band a great many who did vote, would
have voted differently had they not been in
the service, where certain restrictions and
feara were constantly hanging over them.
They did not exercise a free ballot, as did
the man who was not hampered and girded
with Uncle Samuel's blue clflbitg. Tbe
great majority of these soldiers were not
allowed to exercise the right of suffrage ac
cording to the dictates of their own con
sciences, otherwise a larger return in favor
of their old favorite commander, the man
whom they respected and loved to obey,
George: B. McClillan, would have been
received. Democratic tickets, Democratic
newspapers, Democratic politicians, in short
everything that was Democratic, was ex
eluded from the soldiers. They bad, in
many instances, but one candidate to make
a choice from they were compelled in that
case to vote for Father Abraham.
A New Rebellion bt the "Negro Re
publicans." Whoever reads the speeches
lately delivered by the leaders of the New
Eogland Negro Republican . party cannot
fail to discover that tbey intend lo create a
new rebellion. Asserting that as slavery is
abolished, and the negro thereby a citizen,
they claim that as a citizen by force of ab
olition, he is entitled lo a vote. This is
neither law nor logic. Nevertheless they
claim bia right to vote, and if he is not al
lowed to vote in the late slave States the
members of Congress who are elected from
these Slates under the provisions of their
Constitutions," will not be allowed to take
ibeir seats in the next Congress. To jie
prive them of their right, must be by un
lawful means, since by law they are as
much entitled to represent their districts as
any member on the floor. To defeat the
right of representation by unlawful means,
must be either by fraud or force. If the
last, then it is only anew form of rebellion.
We expect a "buckshot war'' on a larger
scale than the Anti Masons organized at
Harrisburg to defeat the will of the people
of Pennsylvania. Thus it ever is with the
destructive fanatical Abolition party. Nev
er satisfied with order or peace, attack is
their life or ruin, and war and death and
tears their policy. Unless Stanton is remo
ved, and Holt and Speed retired to some
Dry Tortugas, another conspiracy will be
soon under way, which may only end in
blood and contracts. This is the new mis
sion of the "Negro Republican" party.
Pnblic FeeliDj.
With the return of peace political feeling
has been greatly changed. During the war
party spirit had reached a dangerous bight,
and its baleful influence could be plainly
discovered in every relation of society. At
the altar, the business mart, the street, the
fireside, wherever men and even women
met, it was an active element of discord..
Crimination the most bitter, persecution the
most unrelenting, in all the annals of polit
ical conflict, rivalling in many of its details
'be darkest pictures of partisan bate which
history has presented, had eradicated near
ly every feeling which the opposition had
before held in common with the dominant
party. Bat peace has produced a great
change. It has given to each party a com
mon cause of rejoicing, and all parties
have nnited in giving expression to the
common joy. It has relieved the intense
anxiety which held . the minds of all men
in continual strain. By removing every
anticipation of danger it has disarmed that
malignant suspicion which tortured every
word and act into evidence of covert treason,
and old friends and old neighbors are meet
ing again in friendly intercourse to discover
that mutual misconstruction had done much
to produce former alienation.
There are, indeed, those who look npon
this reunion ef the people with disfavor,
and would gladly revive that spirit of po
litical bate which has divided every com
munity iu the land, but good men of all
parties are heartily glad that the era of
passion and hatred has passed away, and
they have suffered tod much to desire its
revival. Let us hope that it has passed
away forever.
New issue ia now before the people, and
they will be discussed and decided by the
people as in times passed, and whatever
opinion a citizen may entertain it will not
be at the risk of sustaining the character
of a traitor among a large class of his fel
low countrymen. Lewisburg Journal.
Ik Blair County the Democracy nomi
nated for Assembly 11 a jo r B. M. Morrow,
of Hollidsysburg ; a mac who has served
almost during the entire war in the army.
He is a cripple ; having lost a limb in the
service. They did not nominate a full tick
et. For Register and Recorder they resolved
13 support Col. M D.Jones, the Republican
nominee for that office, who has also served
in the army and was maimed for life. These
''old soldiers'' will receive a hearty support
from all parties, and should be elected,
which tbey, most undoubtedly, will.
Bounty. By a recent Act of Congress the
following persons are entitled to one hundred
dollars bounty : Firit, soldiers of the three
or nine months2 service who were discharg
ed in consequence of wounds received in
battle. Second, soldiers who had not served
two years and were discharged on account
of wounds received. Third, the father,
mother, widow or children of such as were
in the three or nine months' service and
were killed.. These facts are not generally
known and we record them that those, em
braced in the provision of thia act nay
avail themselves cf its benefits.
Tne Policy of President Johnson Opposed by
Jhe Policy of tne Cabinet cf Lincoln.
It is vain now to dispute the fact that
there is a direct issue between President
Johnson and the Cabinet of his predeces
sor, on the question of re-establishment of
the constitutional relations of the South
with the other States in the Union. The
President hat, from bis inauguration, main
tained that the so-called Confederate States
were in the Union ; thfii they could not go
out by any mode known to the organic law ;
that secession was unconstitutional ; that
the rebellion was insurgency against the
supreme law, and that war was the arbitra
ment to decide these points. Hence in his
efforts to re-eitablish the union of the
Slates, he ignored the idea reconstruction, as
inexpressive of the constitutionality of his
policy. The reflective mind will at once
see that the acta of the President in pursu
ance of this polic) were but its corollaries.
So far as his policy was constitutional, it
received the support of the Democracy
because the Democratic party is the only
conservative; constitutional agency now to
be relied on in the country. But not so
with ''the Cabinet" of the President. Ap
pointed by the predecessor of Mr. Johnson,
since the views and prejudices of each
were in harmony with the selecting power,
no evidenco has yet been presented that
any one of the "constil utional advisers" (God
pardon us the satire) of Mr. Johnson nnite,
harmonize, or sympathize with him in bis
policy and purpose of re establishment of
Union. On the contrary, the War Depart
ment, by general orders, and special orders,
is daily exciting the military to acts of wan
ton outrage on the rights of the people; to
the violation of all law ; to a total disregard
of the policy of the President ; to the fo
menting of discord, hatred and ill-will with
in and without the "military lines." Elec
tions are set aside by "Brevet Brigadiers,"
newspapers suppressed by "Colonels com
manding," legal civil officers, duly elected
by the people under 'President Johnson's
promises, policy and power, removed from
office or forbidden to exercise their duties
"by order" of a somebody with shoulder
straps, and the courts of law and jastice
closed; habeas corpus refused, trials un
known to our people ; the constitution or
free government ordered by a military com
mander. Such facts roust convince the Pres
inent, if he is allowed to know them, that
if he expects to restore the Union, be must
cboli'h his Cabinet. Till he makes an ef
fort to satisfy the people that be is in ear
nest, is true, is sincere, is bold, is constU
to:ional, is of iron will and courage enough
to be a constitutional President, he will be
regarded as administrator, not the Executive
of the Federal authority. Paliiot If Union.
Tne Case, of Wm. Kessler.
William Kessler, a poor insane man. of
Jac let-on twp., this county, was drafted; but
no notice was ever served on him, the
officer whose duty it was, saying that it
was unnecessary, that he knew him to be
insane, and that he would so return the
facts. Subsequently, William Kessler was
taken to the Lunatic Asylum, at Harrisburg,
where he escaped and by some means re
turned home.
The notifying officer went into the service
and died. The way seemed to be clear;
and thirty pieces of GREENBACKS, a prize
not to be lightly discarded. Accordingly
one bitter cold night, in February last, a
squad, followed by a military officer, arrest
ed the poor lunatic, hurried bim from point
to point, without givirrg his friends time or
opportunity to bring the facts before the
convicting tribunal ; until, fina'ly, the poor,
FRIENDLESS, INSANE CITIZEN, found
himself incarcera:ed in Fort Mifflin, under
sentence of Court Martial, lo confinement
for TWO YEARS with BALL AND CHAIN!
Who shall answer at the great day, for
the unexampled suffering this innocent lu
natic has endured !
We are glad to add, that upon the facts
being made known lo President Johnson,
be immediately ordered Kessler'e release
and discharge, and lo be returned in charge
of a guard to hi home in Jackfon town
ship. For which lo him, thanks. Dim.
Terrible Steamboat Disaster and Loss of Life.
A terrible steamboat disaster occurred on
Lake Huron about six miles Irom. shore on
Wednesday evening, the 9th instant. The
steamboats Pewabic and Meteor struck
each other, while running at full speed,
with such force as to crush the entire bow
of the former, causing her to sink in four
or five miootes, and carrying down about
a hundred passengers It was scarcely dark
when the accident occurred, and the boats
saw each other when six miles apart.
When approaching they exchanged the
usual signals, and the Pewabic bore off to let
the Meteor pass ; but for some unaccount
able reason this boat turned in the same
direction and struck the Pewabic in the
manner stated. A number of the passen
gers on the Pewabic were killed by the
crushing in of her limbers.- There were
ftorrr one hundred and fifty to two hundred
passengers on the Pewabic, only seventy
five of whom were saved.
"Miscegenation" Rebcksc On Saturday
evening a white man, who bad made him
self somewhat conspicuous by traveling the
streets and visiting the saloons in company
with a. female "American citizen of African
descent," was set upon by a crowd of in
dignant persons who felt that decency bad
been outraged. While we deprecate row
dyism and mob-law, we must say that in
the case referred to, it was rather amusing
to see ihe fellow run before the rail ihat
bad been prepared for bim. The Abolition
ists have brought aboat this state of affairs,
and the country is now witnessing the
beauties o: Ihe equality of races. Luzerne

Coal. From the coal regions we learn
that the demand is good, and a small ad
vance in prices has been realized. It is
generally understood among the trade that
tolls and freight charges will be advanced
on the first of ihe coming mouth. All who
can afford it should lay in their supplies of
coal as soon a powible, as there is evident
ly an upward tendency in the prices both of

speak of the internal revenue as the '-infernal

the probable duration ol the term for which
it will be imposed, suggests that "eternal
revenue" would better express public opin
ion. The name "Union" is after all, very ap
propriate to the present party opposed to
the Democracy. It is, in fact, a union of all
the isms and fag-ends of tbe parties ever or
ganized in opposition to us black spirits
and white a union of seclioual fanatic and
greedy office-seekers.
Something to Think Or. From the day

Messrs Seth VV. Fowler & Co., Boston
Gentlemen. About three years ago our
daughter, now twelve years of age, was
severely afflicted with croup. A general
irritation of the lungs followed, producing
a hectic cough, which became a'mosi con
stant, swelling of the temples and other
indications of Consumption were also ap
parent, ard her life was despaired of by
her physician. Ai this critical moment we
were indured lo give Dr. Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry a trial, and after she had
taken one bottle we found her so much re
lieved Ihat il was thought unnecessary to
continue its use. Since that time we have
used the Balsam in our family in cases of
Coughs and Colds, c nd believe it lo be a
superior remedy foi all diseases of ihe
Lungs.
Yours with respect JAMES GRIMES.
