CLEARFIELD, PA., NOV. 14, 1860.
THE GREAT RESULT.
The Presidential contest is over. . Right and
- Troth have prevailed; Error and Falsehood
have been overthrown ; Disnnionism and Trea-
son have been rebuked ; and Abraham Lincoln
I has been elected President of the United States
t bv the votes of the people. This is the result
" beyond the possibility of a doubt, it being re
duced to a certainty that Mr. Lincoln has car
ried at least Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
- Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut,
"New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, 3.111
, nois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Minheso-
. ta which have 169 electoral votes, 17 moro
: than are necessary to a choice. The Southern
".States will be divided between Breckinridge
land Bell, with the exception of Missouri, which
, has probably gone for Douglas. Dad either of
; the last named candidates been elected, the
Republicans would have quietly submitted.
Having been defeated by Mr. Lincoln, will a
like submission be exercised by the Democrat
ic party ? "We hope so. It may be that South
"Carolina will create some fuss ; but this is not
. likely to be more than a ten days' wonder, tin-
less the Secessionists are encourpged by the Dem
ocratic politicians at the North to such an extent
" thai they may be induced to take steps towards
withdrawing from the Union. The incessant
babble of the leading spirits of the Northern
Democracy about Disunion, "the invasion of
Southern Rights," and that Mr. Lincoln's elec
tion should be regarded as sufficient cause for
secession, may possibly induce a State like
South Carolina, which has- at least once before
proved disloyal, to move seriously in that di
rection.. But, suppose she does what then ?
Why not concede to her the right to walk out
peaceably and try the experiment of "going it
on her own hook?" If any of the Cotton
States feel the present form of government op
pressive, and think they can do better out of
the Union than in it, if they insist on going,
let them go in peace. It is not necessary to
-create any disturbance about it to raise a civil
war or shed fraternal blood. The right to se
cede may be a revolutionary one, but it exists
nevertheless, and we do not see how one party
can have a right to do what another party has
a right to prevent. We will ever resist the as
serted Tight of any State to remain in the U
nion and nullify or defy the laws thereof; to
withdraw from the Union is quite another mat
ter, and if any considerable section shall de
liberately resolve to go out, .we, for one, shall
not counsel the adoption of coercive measures
to prevent it. Onr Southern brethren shonld
sot, however, act rashly in this matter let
ample time be given for reflection ; let the
subject bo fully canvassed "before the people;
let them hare both sides of the question fully
presented ; let them reflect, deliberate, then
vote, and we doubt if there will be a majority
favorable to secession in anv one State. It is a
fact worthy of special note, that there are but
lew Secessionists' the border Slave States
In Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky
and Missouri in fact, leaving out Eastern Vir
ginia, we doubt whether there are any ; it is
in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and oth
er States lying at a great distance from the
Free States that the greatest ado is ma ie about
the non-enforcement of the fugitive slave act,
unless, perhaps, we except Clearfield borough ;
for we doubt, as Hudibras said of the advo
cates of New Light doctrines in his day,
whether the Man in the Moon
"Shows in his gait and face more tricks,
- Than do our native lunatics !"
Have any of ourDemocraticDisunion shriek
ers ever considered all the results that would
follow secession ?- One effect they may have
overlooked. , Suppose South Carolina,' Geor
gia, Florida and Mississippi, the only States
that are foolish enough to do so, should se
cede would not immediately thereupon both
the Senate and House of Representatives become
.Republican ? In that event, Congress and the
President would find" nothing in the way of
their speedily passing a liberal Homestead bill,
an effective Pacific Railroad bill, and a Protec-
tive Tariff .Act! Then what could the Sece-
dents do to prevent the business interests of
the country from springing forward in a career
of accelerated prosperity, such as will make
the United States the foremost power and the
most prosperous nation in the world 1 What
ever may be the course of the Disunionists,
the prospect ahead seems of the brightest. .

- Ora Partt ih the South. It was repeated
ly asserted by our opponents during the recent
canvass . that wo had no party in the South.
Tbo facts were known to be different, and the
returns show that we havo a considerable par
ty in the Slave States.' Lincoln has a plurali
ty of over 800 in St. Louis, Missouri, and 200
plurality in Wilmington, Delaware what the
entire vote is, we arc not prepared to state.
'We polled over 800 votes in two counties in
Western Virginia, 600 in Wheeling alone, and
more than 1,000 in Baltimore, Maryland, be
sides a considerable rote in Washington City.
In Newport, Kentucky, the vote stood : Lin
coln 268 1, Douglas 428 ; Bell 381 ; Breckin
ridge 64. Another Presidential election will
show a . Republican majority in three or four
of the Slave States ! ' ... . . . . . ...

THE UNION FEELING IN THE SOUTH.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York World states that Ex-Senator Pratt, of
Maryland, called on Gen. Caas to see if some!
means could not be devised by which the Pres
ident could call a convention of all the States
choosing to bo represented, for the purpose of
denouncing secession, and making conciliatory
propositions. Gen. Cass replied, that he knew
noway to bring about such a convention, except
by the voluntaryaction of the States themselves.
The Baltimore American & paper which,
although of respectable ability, was rather
ultra previous to the election in its issue' of
Thursday last, says :
-"As the smoke of the battle-field clears a
way and the victory on one side and defeat on
the other is settled beyond the possibility of
doubt, we may look with cotnparitive calmness
upon the aspect of affairs. While a single
chance remained it was well enough to give
all our energies to the accomplishment of one
object the defeat of Lincoln. We have
fought as loyally as we could, some of us un
der one banner and some of us under another,
against the common enern', and we have not
prevailed. It only remains for us to gather our
scattered forces and make arrangements for a
nother struggle upon another and more fortu
nato field. The plainest fact is that we can
find no such field out of the Union. Suppose
Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri
should respond to the invitation of South Car
olina, and by formal enactment withdraw
from the Confederacy ? The only result
would be to engirdle ourselves with an extend
ed Abolition frontier, affording ten thousand
avenues of escape for fugitive slaves, and se
enring their safety if once over the border as
really as if they were landed in Canada or in
England. For the very reason that we regard
the doctrines and principles of the Republi
can party with unchangeable hostility do we
insist upon maintaining our position of equal
ity is the Urion, and watching over our rights
from the Ohio to the great lakes, and from the
mouth of the Susqnehana to the most north
ern point of Maine. The law that provides for
the return of our runaway slaves is operative
so long as the Confederacy is unbroken, and
whether resisted or evaded or obeyed, it is
still the law of the land, and we are in a ppsi
tion to demand its enforcement. But what
could the citizens of a United Southern Con
federacy say to a hostile nation that harbored
our fugitive ?"
The Star, a Breckinridge paper printed at
Washington City, says :
"They have, as good citizens, now before
them the plain duty of submitting with grace
to the will of the people, as manifested at the
ballot-box. Thoso who may hesitate so to do,
will prove unworthy of the high prerogative
of American citizenship, which embraces ob
ligations, it will be remembered, as well as
privileges. That Lincoln has been overwhel
mingly elected, according to the forms of the
Constitution, is undeniable; and that his ele
vation to power in the Government under that
election, can no longer be opposed except by
naked and palpable revolutionary means, is no
less apparent. Those who counsel aught but
acquiescence in the result, under the circum
stances, counsel neither more nor less than
revolution ; and that, too, while the South are
tbo richest and most prosperous community,
under the Government of the United States,
that the world contains under any Government.
At this moment, there is not a tithe of the
want, crime, and individual discontent with
one's lot in life, at the South, that exists at
the IN orth. This is, for the most part, doubt
less the result of the South's advantages of
sou, climate, pursuits and institutions. What
man of common sense, with aught accumula
ted that may be endangered by revolution, will
le rash enough to favor any such violent change
as is now proposed ?"
The Rockingham, Virginia, Register, refer
ring to Gov. Wise's late explosion, says :
"We presume it is scarcely necessary for
us to 8 ay that the insane movements and
speeches of Ex-Governor Wise, aud his ef
forts to get up companies of 'Minute Men:
in Virginia to resist the inauguration of any
President elected by the voice and will of the
people of the Union, meet with no response
in this stronghold of the Virginia Democracy.
The people here are resolved to oppose the e-
lection of Lincoln by all fair and constitu
tional means ; but if the people will that the
reigns of the General Government shall be
placed in bis hands, the Democracy of the
Tenth Legion will not bo involved in the
treasonable purpose and effort to prevcut his
inauguration. Upon this point there is but
one opinion amongst all our people."
The Raleigh Standard, the organ of the
Breckinridgo party in NortU Carolina, refer
ring to Gov. Wise's speech, says :
"We regret to have to record the above.
Gov. Wise is in favor of disunion in the event
of Lincoln's election. lie says he will look
to Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, and Florida, to leap at once, for
herself and by herself, into the contest.'
North Carolina will take no such leap.
The Louisville, Kentucky, Journal says:
"Missouri, and Tennessee, and Kentucky,
and Virginia, and Maryland, deprecate the
dissolution of the Union; but South Carolina,
and f lorida, and Georgia, swear that the U
nion shall be dissolved, on account of the e
scape of Missouri's Tennessee's, Kentucky's,
V lrginia's and Maryland's slaves ! What dis
interested creatures South Carolina, Florida
and Georgia must bo !"
now They will do it. George N. Saund
ers of New York has discovered, and has
kindly informed tho public in a long letter,
exactly how the Union is to bo dissolved, and
what are to be the dreadful consequences. If
we may believe him, only the cotton States
will secede, leaving Maryland, Virginia, &c.,
behind, giving the North the Capitol build
ings at Washington, tho records, and all that
kind of-property. Then they won't fight,
but will keep still, and be as moody as you
please. They will stop raising cotton, which
will distress the North dasperately, and very
soon bring on a revolution. They will have a
cheap government, no taxes, and a fine time
generally. Now, who ever thought they would
do it in this way ? It is not very appalling,
after all. We had expected that they would
take tho public archives, steal all the money in
the Treasnry, kill a few of us, have a "united
South," and quite soon become the most pow
erful nation on the face of the earth. Wo don't
know who gave Saunders his information, but
we confess to great disappointments. - If wo
must have a crash, why, let us have a big one.
Boston Bee. ' w " "
. Some of our Democratic politicians seem to
be very anxious to have their predictions of a
dissolution of the Union verified, 'it, is not
very improbable that with them "the wish is
father to the thought," for should a dissolu
tion occur, that would "make their words
good," and they could refer with exultation to
the fact. The constant prating of the Demo
cratic leaders about Dissolution, is destroying
the reverence that should be entertained for
the Union, and is doing much to encourage the
Secessionists iu carrying out their designs. -

The Secession Movement. The excitement
in tho South still continues, and tho Legisla
ture of South Carolina has passed a resolution
calling a convention ot the people, to meet
about the middle of December, to make ar
rangements in regard to the formation of a
Southern Confederacy. In all the other States
tho majority of the people are opposed to dis
union, and at Augusta, Ga., a meeting was
lie Id, called by tbo Mayor of the town, for the
purpose of expressing the opposition of the
people to secession. The number present was
large, and the conservative resolutions were
adopted with much enthusiasm. Senator
Toombs, of Georgia, has resigned, as has also
Senator Chesnut, of South Carolina.
Old Abe at Home. It will be a peculiar
satisfaction to the Republicans of Illinois to
know that Mr. Lincoln has carrid his own city
and county ; that, in spito of tho detractions
of his enemies, his neighbors, who know him
best, have testified their respect for his spot
less personal character and his emirent ability,
by giving him their suffrages. In 1856, San
gamon county, on Governor, gave a Demo
cratic majority of 287 ; in 1858, it gave a ma
jority of 342 for tho Democratic candidate for
State Treasurer. It now gives a round 100
for nonest Old Abo. Never was there a field
more fiercely contested and never have a can
didate's character and fitness done him better
service. .
Sentenced. Judge Thompson, of the Phil
adelphia Quarter Sessions, on Wednesday last
sentenced William Byerly who was convict
ed," a week or two since, of making a fraudu

months imprisonment in the county prison.
and to pay a fine of three hundred dollars.
' PENNSYLVANIA ITEMS.
PREPARED FOR THE "RAFTSMAN'S JOURNAL.
Green County. Tho town or Carmichaels
was recentlv the scene of a domestic squabble
and street fight. A man had been for some
time accused ot insulting ladies by remarks,
as they passed his house, when, on a certain
day, one of them, of herculean proportions,
determined on cowhiding him. Accordingly
she went up Main street, espied him a short
distance ahead, made instant chase and over
took him on Green street.where she commenc
ed drubbing him. The offender being full of
fight, kicked her in the stomach, when her
husband, hearing the fuss, came up in time to
take the job off her hands. Other members
of each family, attracted by the noise, came
up, and pitched into each .other until eight of
them were clawing and wooling, when the of
fender's family getting rather worsted, went
home to get pistols, knives, and sundry other
weapons. The citizens were about interfering,
when a shower of rain coming on, cooled the
ardor of the combatants, and scattered the
crowd, to discuss the merits of cowhides. ". . .
A distressing homicide occurred in Mt. Mor
ris, a few days ago, the particulars of which
are these: Henry Barrackman, a hitherto
quiet, sober man, came home drunk and com
menced abusing his wife. She called James
Bear to quiet him, when Barractman turned
upon him and run him off with a poker ot
shovel. In running, Mr. Bear turned and
threw a stone, which struck Barrackman in the
breast and killed him almost instantly. Bear
surrendered himself immediately and was ac
quitted of all blame by the Justice who tried
him. It is said that he is nearly distracted
with grief on account of this unfortunate affair.
Centre County A few days ago, while
Sam Bike was traveling an unfrequented road,
in the neighborhood of Aaronsburg, he had
the misfortune to fall and break his leg. He
being unable to get up and no one happening
along, he was compelled to remain overnight
where he had fallen, and when discovered,
next morning, his limb was so swollen that it
could not be set. Poor Sam has many "nps
and downs" in this world. -'May he soon re
cover. . . . A very unfortunate circumstance
occurred recently at Curtin's Ore-Batik,known
as the red-bank, which resulted in the death
of a young man named Patrick Warren. It
appears that Mr. Warren was engaged in raising
ere from a shait about sixty feet in depth and
was about iu the act of descending by means
of a windlass, ne had placed his foot in a
loop in tho windlass rope for such a purpose,
and just as he had thrown his weight upon the
rope it slipped out, and he was precipitated to
the bottom, fracturing his skull and otherwise
injuring him. Medical aid was immediately
called, and a surgical operation performed by
which a circular portion of the skull was ex
tracted, as the only hope of saving the life of
the sufferer, who after lingering several days
died from the effects of his injuries. . . . Mr.
Win. Riddle, of Pleasant Gap, while engaged
in working on the new addition to the Store
at that place, fell from a considerable height
and broke his ankle, llis injuries are of a
very serious nature.
Tioga Countt. The Wellsboro' Agitator of
the 31st Oct. tells the following about a faith
ful dog: About two weeks ago, Mr. George
Gilbert, who lives half way between Union
Academy and Knoxville, in this County, was
roused in the night by the incessant barking
of his dog. The dog then ran away in the di
rection of the house of Mr. G.'s father, dis
tant about a quarter ot a mile, and thinking
nothing was wrong, Mr. G. fell asleep. About
day-break he arose, and on opening his door
the dog grabbed him by the pants and pulled
.him in the direction of his barn, on reaching
which, he discovered, that a fine young horse
had been stolen, lie immediately followed
the robber, and in a few hours he found his
colt hitched to a tree in Westfield. The horse
had been found to be too young to ride well,
and to prevent discovery the thief had left
him and "took to the woods."
Dauphin Countt. On the morning of the
10th November, a man named James Stipe, of
Middletown, was found dead on the public
highway, a short distance below Highspire.
When discovered he was lying with his face to
the ground, in which position he had apparent
ly remained during the night. An empty
whisky bottle was found beside him. The
Coroner summoned a jury, who rendered a
verdict of death from tho effects of intoxica
ting liquor and exposure.
POLITICAL FORGERIES.
All campaigns have their peculiarities ; and
the one just closed has been distinguished by
the persistence of the democratic press in
perpetrating forgeries upon the Republicans.
Larry in the campaign, before any one was
nominated for the Presidency, a string of
quotations, attributed to Horace Greeley,
Joshua R. Giddings and other leading Repub
licans, went the rounds of the Democratic pa
pers, not one of which was genuine. They
were each repeatedly declared to be fabrica
tions by the men to whom they were attrtbu
ted, but the party press hung on to them long
after, evidently loth to give them up.
As soon as Mr. Lincoln was nominated, the
New York Herald perpetrated a forgery by
mutilating an extract from one of his speech
es. In tho debate with Douglas, Mr. Lincoln
remarked that at such and such a place, "Mr
Douglas said that I said" so and so, and then
went on to show that Mr. Douglas misrepre
sented him. The Herald, in extracting this,
left out the words, "Mr. Douglas said that,"
and thus gave it as being an utterance of Mr.
Lincoln instead of Mr. Douglas. This vile
imposition had a short run in the locofoco
papers ; but somehow they soon got ashamed
of it and abandoned it.
They were not, however, so easily shamed
out of the similar forgery perpetrated upon
Carl Shurz. They seized upon a certain par
agraph in one of his speeches, in which he
portrayed the Declaration of Independence as
Mr. Douglas interpreted it, and gave it as con
taining the sentiments of Mr. Shurz. Ideas
which he was holding up to ridicule they pub
lished as his own. This was the vilest kind
of a forgery ; and the locofoco editors, instead
of growing ashamed of it, when it was ex
posed, adhered to it all the more firmly
and persisted in it to the last. -
The next and the last forgery was an extract
from a speech purporting to have been made
by John ; M. WUson, a Lincoln elector in
Massachusetts," denouncing tho Germans in
unmeasured terms. When it was shown that
there was no John M. Wilson on the Lincoln
electoral ticket in Massachusetts, his location
was transferred to Indiana. There a Mr. John
M. Wilson was found, but ho declared most
solemnly that he never made such a speech,
and produced the testimony of his neighbors,
who heard the speech he made at the time and
place this was alleged to have been made, that
ho uttered no such sentiments. This was a
thorough exposure of the fraud ; but the dem
ocratic papers paid no heed to the exposure.
and hnng on to the dirty forgery with a death
grip' ' : ' - v.-.-
Akm to these was a scries of advertisements
written by . locofocos and published in the
Pittsburgh Dispatch, Philadelphia Ledtrer. and
N. Y. Herald, calling on the negroes to rally,
iorm wiae awatce clubs, &c. Another adver
tisement represented that "a respectable col
ored family wanted a white boy to wait on the
table and make himself generally useful about
the house." After writinc and- nublishine
these as genuine, their loco-fuco authors uiado
a great ado over them, as evidence of the nat
ural tendency of Republican principles, and
these advertisements, after having gone the
rounds in the northern democratic papers,
are now travelling through the south, furnish
ing food for the demagogues of that region
with which to stimulate the fiercest passions of
the fire-eaters.
This trick was the dirtiest of the whole can
vass. y None but the vilest heart could con
ceive' of it or the filthiest hand execute it.
That the party should have resorted to such
meanness shows how desperate it had grown
in the terrible decay of its fortunes.
But it was all in vain. Forgery would not
save it from ruin ; and in the nastiness with
which it surrounded itself in its last days it
has demonstrated, better than ordinary lan
guage can, the great necessity that existed for
its extirpation.

rpiIE TRIBUNE FOR 1801. PROSPEC
JL TVS. The XXth Volume of the Weekly Tri
bune commenced with the issue of Sept. 1. Iur
ingtho past year The Tribune has been obliged to
devote quite a large proportion of its space to pol
itics, but we shall soon be able to forego Political
discussions almost entirely, for months if not for
years, and devote nearly all our columns to sub
jects of less intense, but more abiding, interest. A
mong these, we mean to pay especial attention to
I. EitucATio.v. The who'le suhject of Education,
both Popular and General, will be discussed in
our columns, throughout the year 1861, and we
hope to elicit in that discussion some of the pro
foundest thinkers aud the ablest instructors in our
country. It is at once our hopo and our resolve
that the cause of Education shall receive an im
petus from the exertions of Tho Tribune in its be
half during the year 1861.
II. AGUict LTt-KE. We have been compelled to
restrict our elucidations of this great interest
throughout lSGO.and shall endeavor to atone there
for in 1861. Whatever discovery, deduction, de
monstration, is calculated to render tho reward of
labor devoted to cultivation more ample or moro
certain, shall receive prompt and full attention.
IU. M a n r p Acrrn e s , Ac We hail every in
vention or enterprise whereby American Capital
and Labor aro attracted to and advantageously
employed in any department of Manufacturing or
Mechanical Industry as a peal contribution to the
Tublic Weal, insuring ampler, steadier, more con
venient, more remunerating markets to the Farm
er, with fuller employment and better wages to
tho Laborer. The progress of Mining, Iron-Making,
Steel-Making, Cloth-Weaving, Ac, in our
country and the world, shall bo watched and repor
ted by us with an earnest and active sympathy.
IV. Foreign- Affairs. We employ the best cor
respondents in London, Paris, Turin, Berlin, and
other European Capitols, to transmit us early and
accurate advices of the great changes there silent
ly but certainly preparing. In spito of the pres
sure of Domestic Politics, our News from the Old
World is now varied and ample; but we shall
havo to render it more perfect during tho event
ful year just before us.
V, Home News. We employ regular paid cor
respondents in California, at the Isthmus of Da
rien, in the Rocky Mountain gold region, or wher
ever else they seem requisite. From tho more ac
cessible portions of our own country, wo derive
our information mainly from the multifarious cor
respondents of tho Associated Press, from our ex
changes, and the occasional letters of intelligent
friends. : We aim to print tho cheapest general
newspaper, with tho fullest and most authentic
summary of useful iutelligence. that is anywhere
afforded. , Hopin to "make each day a critic on
tho last,", and print a better and better paper from
year to year, as cur means are steadily enlarged
through the generous co-operation of our many
well-wishers, we solicit, and shall labor to do
serve, a continuance of public favor.
