'ILRSDAT INTORNIMG, FEBRUARY 2, 1864
ANOTHER ERA OF GOOD
FEELING.
When the Southern rebellion first
alarmed the country from its propriety,
by daring to fire upon Fort Sumter, we
all remember with what unamimity our
citizens responded to the call fof volun
teers to put down that treason. This
feeling increased during the Summer,
and until the Fall, when a few Abolition
politicians, fearing their political stand
ing, suddenly discovered that those who
did not act with them were somewhat
disloyal and needed wattling. This in: l
famous and villainous conduct upon the
part of the Abolition leaders, increased
in infamy up until our last State election.
During- he 'canvass which resulted in
an Abolition triumph, we, Democrats
were openly assailed as traitors, and
threatened with summary proceedings,
if we dared to question the infalibility
of Abolition teaching. We were beaten
in the contest, by the foulest corrup
tion, but still we submitted with
graceful resignation. '
Among those who labored most indus
triously to prove that the Democratic
party of Pennsylvania was a disloyal or
ganization, in sympathy with JEFF DA
yrs, was ex-Governor JOHNSTON, of our
county. That gentleman, in particular
localities where his voice was consider
ed quite potential, not only charged
254,000 citizens of Pennsylvania with
entertaining treasonable designs against
their Government; but, in order to make
his charges the more telling he assured
his hearers that, in this latent treason
there was a touch of jesuitism," which
rendered it the more dangerous. This
of course, had its effect, for the ex
Governor has campaigned sufficiently,
to know what ip best calculated to im
press his hearers. But no more of this.
With other admirers of the Governor's,
we rejoice to see that the bitterness ex
hibited by hint during the late campaign,
has entirely consumed itself, and that a
sweet and liberal feeling has taken
its place. At the late meeting, to encour
age enlistments, he remarked that lie
was, himself growing — a little old and
somewhat burly," but, not withstandin!=,
if the people desired to put the '•laborin t ,
oar on him lie would do the best lie
could." This exhibition of patriotism by
our distinguished fellow citizen must
have a good effect, as will also the fol
lowing liberal sentiments expressed by
him on the same occasion. In putting
down the rebellion he remarked that
"he would know no nationality, no po
litical association, no religious creeds—
he would recognize nothing on the Bice
of the earth but American libentr."
and that only let us inang,urate an cra
of good feeling, without any 'admixture
ofjesuitism," of any sort; and should
the people put the laboring oar on
the ex-Governor, we shall stick by him
until the last plank of his boat is shiver
ed. Should the storm and billows prove
tOo heavy for our craft, and our leader.
perchance, be dashed into the sea, then
should we in the agony of despair, re
solve to "sink or swim" to "survive or
pcirish with him." But we have no fear
