THE RESULT IN CLEARFIELD COUNTY.
From tho returns so far received, "we sup
pose that Foster willhavo from 200 to 300 jna
jority, and Patton,Rep., for Congress, from 50
to 100. The Republicans worked nobly in all
the districts, and deserve much credit for the
manner in which they contested ' the' fight.
When we take into consideration tho extraor
dinary efforts made by the Democrats, and the
manifold and; in some instances, despicable
means resorted to by them, we are only sur-
prised ,that we accomplished as much as we
have. 'The returns as far as received we give
in another part of this paper.
.V TO OUR POLITICAL FRIENDS.
. It is too soon lor us to tell the result
of the election . held ' in this State yester
day ; but be it as it may, we take this occasion
to urge every member of the Republican party
to keep on his armor, and continue working
zealously in the good canso in which we are
engaged until the election in November, when
success will certainly crown our efforts." Do
not permit yourselves to become indifferent
or to imagine that the labor of the campaign
is ended. Much remains yet to be done before
the Presidential struggle will be terminated
To be Bure, if Curtin is elected, our victory
will be achieved comparatively easy ; should
the returns indicate a different result, then the
Democratic managers will use every means to
rally tho shattered fragments of their party
and the most desperate efforts will be made to
compass the defeat of Lincoln and Hamlin
We have no idea that they will be able to ac
complisb this under any state cf affairs ; but
it behooves us to be ready to meet the enemy
under any and all circumstances, and to pre
paro for every emergency that may arise.
Tho manner in which the canvass was carried
on in our own county, illustrates the despera
tion with which the Democratic leaders have
battled all over the State. Nothing was left
undone. Meetings were held and speeches
were m ado in nearly every district. The vi
lest slanders and grossest falsehoods were put
in circulation against our candidates. The
prejudices and passions of men were appealed
to with the hope of injuring individual mem
bers of our ticket. What all these disgrace
ful efforts accomplished, the result will plain
ly indicated That will tell : tho story ; and if
we mistake not," it will" teach those . who were
at the bottom of all tho nefarious falsehoods
and calumnies that were set afloat against the
Republican candidates, that even in politics
"honesty, is the best policy." ' Our object,
however, in this article is only to urge our po
litical friends to renewed action not to cease
laboring for the certain triumph that awaits
us in November !''..''.'"" .
Senator Seward has been traveling through
the North-west making speeches in favor . of
Lincoln and Hamlin. On the evening of the
1st Oct., he reached Chicago. He was escort
ed ' to the hotel by ' the Wide-Awakes, and
being called out by the immense crowd who
had gathered to see him, he appeared on the
balcony and made a brief address, in the
course of which he said ;
; Neither you nor I have any power to disturb
those of our fellow citizens in the Southern
States who maintain slavery, and having no
power we have no responsibility. We need
not fear that right, and justice, and humanity,
will not prevail in this world, even though we
re not in the field where battles for it are to
I bo fought or where instructions for it are to
bo given. -There have.becn six of the thirteen
Slave States of the confederacy redeemed by
the citizens of those States themselves with
out interference or intervention from abroad.
All the others that remain may be left under
tho increasing influences of Christianity, to say
nothing of policy, to deliver themselves from
the curse from which we have been saved.
Non-intervention in the States by freeman is
but half of the Republican. party. Non-intervention
by slaveholders in : the Territories of
the United States is the residue. Cheers.
- How the Moxey Goes. -Joel A. Matteson,
the late Democratic Governor of Illinois, ab
sorbed during his administration four hundred
and twenty-eight thousand nine- hundred and
sixty dollars of the public funds of the State,
which has, since bis retirement from the Gu
bernatorial chair, been traced directly to his
hands.' This modern Democrat is now using
tbeso stolen funds against the people of the
State whom ho has robbed, by applying it to
electioneering purposes. In any other gov
ernment on earth, but ours, he would bo pro
perly punished for stealing. ; . , ,
DEMOCRATIC INCONSISTENCY.
The leaders of the Democratic party have
heretofore made their implicit obedience to
the decisions and opinions of, the Supreme
Court of ' the United States, a great merit.
One of! their, leading journals recently declar
ed this to be the proper : criterion for judging
of the' character of a party. Here is its lan
guage i '-;? "--". .' " v- "
"The only criterion of excellence, in judg
ing of the character of a political organization,
is its conformity to the spirit of the Constitu
tion, as manifested in the practical operation
of government. To aid the judgment in this
matter, we have the decisions of the Supreme
Louri, iie oniy auinoruuiuc itij
Constitution. Ml we need to know, therefore,
in determining this question of political orthodoxy,
is, to what extent mis or inai pariy coincides irure,
and most - zealously maintains the .decisions of
this august tribunal un constitutional questions.'
Tbis sounds beautifully, but how. does the
practice of the party conform to it 1 -
At the Charleston Convention the following
preamble and resolution were submitted as
part of the platform which was adopted by the
majority of that body : j v t:aZ .j i.; ? c,ui A
H "Inasmuch as 'differences of opinion ' exist
in the Democratic party as to the nature and
extent of the powers of a Territorial Legisla
ture, and as to the powers and duties of Con
gress, under the Constitution of tho United
States, over the institution of slavery within
the Territories : ' '
"Resolved, That the Democratic party ' trill
abide by the decisions of the ' Supreme Conrt of
the United States on the question of consmuuon-
al laws' - 4 "
- This portion of the report was rejected, but
twenty -one members voting for it, and two
hundred and thirty-eight against it. It -f
A Southern Democratic paper gives the rea
sons of its editor, who was a member of the
Conventions, for voting against the resolution
"The Sur-REME Court asd the Democracy
A resolution reported by the minority of the
Committee on Resolutions at the Charleston
Convention pledged the .Democratic party to
abide bv, and faithfully carry out, sucn deter
roination3 of these (Territorial questions) as
have been or may be made by . the Supreme
Court of the United States.; v: v :
"To this resolution we. could not assent
We could not then, and we cannot now, assent
to erecting the Supreme Court,or any other Court
or body of men, into the dictators of .Democratic
principles. It would be absurd in us to do so.
No merely judicial tribunal has any right or
claim to supremacy over the consciences or Dem
ocrats, upon political questions. And even as
a matter or. policy it would be fun more ab
surd. ; The Supreme Court, so far as the J udg
es on its Bench are concerned, is trembling
on the verge of the grave. In all human pro
bability it must be almost wholly reorganized
within the next four years. Its decisions may
bo wholly opposed to that made or intimated
in the : Dred Scott case. Would we havo the
Democratic party, as a matter of party faith,
pledged to them, too 7 Would we have Demo
cratic principle and policy dependent on the
reorganization of the Supreme Court ?. We
would not, and hence we voted against this
resolution in Convention."
If Democracy is to be judged out of its own
mouth what are we to think ot it ? We are
frequently told that Democratic principles are
"eternal and unchangeable;" but it must be ac
knowledged that it is hard for persons not of
that party to understand what they are, when
it is evident that the oracles of Democracy are
continually contradicting themselves.
The extracts quoted above we got from a
very able article in the Natioaal Intelligencer,
whieh shows the inconsistencies of sham-De
mocracy in a strong light.
TRADE OF THE UNITED STATE3.
The oflicial statement of the imports and
exports of the United States for the year end
ing June 30, 18C0, which has been published
in the Washington. Constitution, and copied
thence into other papers, has not, we fearx at
tracted sufficient attention. . -.
The imports were $361,797,209; the exports,
exclusive of specie, $316,220,610 ; excess of
imports $15,576,599 ; the export of specie was
$50,946,251. . '-
This the Government, Democratic, New
York, and all the anti-tariff papers publish
with the following flourish : "Balance of
trado in favor of the United States $38,370,
252," which "balance" is obtained in this way :
Exports of domestic produce, exclusive of
specie, $316,220,610 ; foreign produce export
ed, $27,000,000; specie exported, $56,916,
851 ; making $400,107.461 ; imports, $361,
797,209 ; excess of exports, including produce
and specie, 538,370,252.
The melancholy truth, however, is that the
balance of trade was against us more than Forty-fire
millions of dollars. To pay our debts we
sent fifty-seven millions of specie, which paid
the balance against us, and twelve millions of
the old score accumulated against us by "frte
trade." , '
We remind our readers that there is no such
thing as free trade in any European country.
The meaning of it is, that the tariff is so reg
ulated as to protect their interests. When
there is danger of famine, as now in France,
the duty is taken oft grain ; and when, as in
England, they, by pauper labor and the like,
can undersell us at home, in manufactured ar
ticles, tbey take the duty oS them. Bet while
these governments have heavy revenues to
raise, tbey always discriminate in favorof their
own citizens. Free trade means that the du
ties are lowered on certain articles when it
suits them so to lower them. ,
. Free trade here means that our people are
so enormously extravagant that they import,
to oblige our Southern government, three-hundred
and sixty-two millions of foreign goods,
which enables the government to get an extra
vagant revenue without protecting the people.
. Suppose we consume five hundred millions
of goods. We lay the same tariff on two hun
dred millions that was laid on three hundred
and sixty-two millions. At present our own
people produce one hundred and .thirty-eight
millions of these goods and foreigners the
rest. " If we could check importation to that
extent, by our. tariff, then our own people
would produce three hundred millions, and we
should pay no more duty. Cannot the people
see this ?, . Do they clearly understand that af
ter sending all, the cotton, tobacco, grain, and
every thing else that Europe would take from
us we then sent them fifty-seven millions of
specie besides ? " And this at tho bidding of
Southern planters and. New York importing
houses. And do they understand that a small
specific duty laid on these goods would devel
op our own country, bring up our coal, iron,
copper, zinc, and all the boundless resources
of the land,and make us independent in a groat
measure of Europe? We surely have had e
nough of Northern men with Southern principles.

Cambria County. On Friday night, Sept.
28th, between 12 and 1 o'clock, a young man
named Charles Watkins got into an affray with
a crowd of Irishmen near the Compan'y store
in Johnstown, during which he was struck on
the bead- with a stone which injured him so
seriously that be died from the effects of it on
Sunday morning. -Seven of tho party were
arrested, and after a hearing, six of them were
sent to the Ebensburg jail to await trial on the
charge of murder. Watkins was a Wide
Awake and was returning to the Hall to re
move his uniform, when he was surrounded by
tho Irishmen, who told him he must" fight his
way through, but. refused and was walking
away when the stone was jlurown and struck
him,' producing the result above stated.' .'. .
On Friday evening Sept. 28th, the Republicans
of Ebensburg proceeded -to,, the , Tannery of
Mr. D. Jones, ahout 2 miles from town, for the
purpose of raising a Lincoln, Hamlin and
Curtin pole. 'While raising, it, tbfl' splice,
which was very imperfectly put together.broke
off, and fell On Messrs. Morris W. Jones and
John C. Evans, v Mr. Jones was knocked in
sensible, and for some time it was feared that
he would not recover. Mr. Evans received a
serious cut upon his head, and was considera
bly bruised , about : his face and arms. Both
men were taken into the bouse of Mr. Jones,
near by. Dr. Walters, who was on the spot,
diessed their wounds and they are now rapid
ly recovering. . . . An accident of a painful
nature occurred at the Johnstown fairgrounds
on the second day of the exhibition. ; Several
ladies had seated themselves in a box of a re
volving swing to take a small ride, and had
.made several revolutions, when . some of the
apparatus became disarranged and the ladies
were thrown to the ground. One had several
jibs broken aud was otherwise i severely injured
the other two were not very badly hurt. '
- Clinton County. On Saturday night.Sept.
29th, a fracas occurred at the brick yard at
Queen's Run, some five miles from Lock Ha
ven, between Jerry Murrav and Michael Cohoe',
which 'resulted in the death of the-former.
During the melee, Cohoe struck Murray on
the back of the head, fracturing the skull.
Murray lingered until Monday at 5 o'clock,
when he died. Cohoe was arrested on Satur
day night and confined in jail at Lock Haven.
Both parties had been indulging in liquor.
Murray leaves'a wife and several children.
. THE PRINCE OF. WALES. 1 ' "
' The Prince of Wales!, heir apparent to the
throne ol England, is now travelling in the
United States, and receiving , "democratic"
receptions everywhere. . He has visited De
troit, Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Pitts
burgh, Harrisburg, Washington City, and will
visit other cities and places of interest before
leaving this country. The Cincinnati Gazelle
gives the following account of how the Prince
travels: ".. . ...... .
' "Some people, when they go from one place
to another, calculate upon, their. "luck", in
putting them through, others travel on their
fmuscle,",; others on, their "beauty," others
on tneir "talents (very lew m number,) om
ers on their "impudence," and others on "dead
head" tickets ; but with Lord Renfrew it can
be emphatically said , that he travels on his
money. From . Cincinnati to , Pittsburgh he
pays the modest sum of two thousand dollars
tor a special train ; but while he pays in ac
cordance with royalty, he expects to receive
immunities not granted to ordinary men. The
train which bears His Highness has the entire
right of the road.' , An engine specially detail
ed precedes the train to keep the track clear
aud look out for any imperfections in the road
that would jeopardize the safety of the train
containing the Prince and royal retinue. The
agent of the Prince, who is a cousin to him on
Albert's side, arranges all his traveling mat
ters, and stipulates in the bargain witb railroad
companies, that on no consideration shall any
person be allowed on board the train except
those necessary to manage it; and. these are
prohibited irom entering the royal car,butride
by themselves in a forward car. When tho
bargain was made with' the Superintendent of
the Little Miami road to convey the rnnce to
Pittsburgh, the agent endeavored to incorpo
rate in the contract that the Superintendent
should ride cn the front car, and when theie
was anything of interst tobe seen on the road,
to go back and point it out to the Prince ; but
theSupenntendentgracetully declined; wnere
upon the office was tendered the Assistant Su
perintendent, who likewise declined, and at
last accounts an individual willing to accept
the position, was being searched for."
Oregon. The news fiom Oregon is encour
aging. The Republicans aud anti-Lane Dem
ocrats having combined and selected, in cau
cus, E. D. Baker (Rep) and R. W. Nesmith,
(anti-Lecoropton Dem.) for U. S. Seantors.
They were able to organize the House; and
in the fear that a similar combination would
be made in the Senate, and that it would be
maintained so as to elect two anti-Administration
United States Senators, six of the Demo
cratic members of the Senate absconded, and
left that body without a quorum. They went
to Corvallis, wbither they were pursued by tbe
Sergeant-at-Arms, bnt escaped to the woods,
where tbey were concealed at the last accounts
Here we have another specimen of tbe manly
Democratic way of defeating the will of the
people. Unablo to prevent the election of
tho candidates opposed to mem by lair racaus,
they deserted their, posts and took to tho
woods, like Foster at Crcsson. This is quite
consistent with the easy notions of morality
that prevail generally -among the Democratic
party throughout the country. Under the name
of Democrats, they are continually trying to
defeat the will of. the people, and stop at no
degradation, when they have that object in
view. What do they care for the people so
long as tbey have the power, if it is only the
power to do mischief
Another Martyr to Slavery. A few
weeks ago Rev. Mr. Bewley, a Methodist cler
gyman was hung by a democratic pro-slavery
mob in Texas, because he had said that he did
not think slavery was in accordance with the
teachings of the Christain religion! The
Methodists throughout the country are deeply
stirred; by this horrible . occurrence. Mr.
Bewley was well known as a peaceful and, de
voted evangelist. - His views of slavery were
of the mildest character, and he would bu
deemed the last man to thrust his views offen
sively mild and-conservitive though they
were upon any community., On his removal
to Texas a few months since he carried testi
monials of his humility and devotion , to his
work. But he was a Methodist! That, in
Texas, is deemed the equivalent of abolition
ism; and. the. devoted: minister of Christ,
guilty ot no crime, and on the merest suspici
on that 'he cherished offensive opinions, was
hung. up liko a murderer! , Is it not the plain
duty ol every christian and philanthropist to
act with that party which is pledged to confine
so awful An institution to its present limits?
C Late intelligence from Granada, Central A
merica, states that tbe Conservatives bad been
successful, and that General Mosquera was
hard pressed. A negro mob had attacked
Panama creating much alarm. The authori
ties had applied to the commanders of tho
the .American and British ships of war to
protect the city, and forces were landed.
The negroes, at last advices, bad returned
