I believe he has, during the period of my
acquaintance, been regarded as a law-abiding
citizen. I was present at a meeting at
Polk School Ilou.-e. I saw Samuel Lans
berry there. He was ouUide the School
liouse while the proceedings were going on.
I asked him if he was going to join, and he
paid no, that it did not suit him. He served
draft notices at the meeting, and also the
-next day at the election.
Cross Examined: Lansbeiry asked me if
1 was going to join, and I told him no. I
do not remember whether he told me I was
drafted and that I had better join, or not.
I wa- outide with Lan-sberry during the
meeting. We were waiting until they got
through. He did not say he did not .ap
prove of it. There were others outside also.

ile ba always been regarded as a loyal citi

bouse, but I cannot elate the time, and the
object was as I understood it, to devise
means to get the drafted men to stay at
home and put in substitutes, and those who
wanted to go to war could go. . LansWry was
there he offered to pay for two substitutes.

was afa meeting held at Ilubler's. It was
to raise money to clear us from the draft.
It was hold the day alter he made his report
that he had served the notices. He advised

who could. nut. get clear they would raise
money to put in substitutes. He said he

thing for people in our county to go to what
is called the 1 "Green Woods," in the fall of
the year for the purpose of hunting. They
usually take some provisions with them, and
if they run out send for mjre. I saw Lans

that he said anything to them except, that
he had a draft notiee for . them. I was at

Ttie Flood in Clearfield. On Friday
the 17th, we wituessed the most destructive
flood that has occurred in this county for
many years. The smaller bridges over the
streams were swept away, and square tim

Soated down the streams in large quantities.
It is estimated, that nearly one-f orth of the
lumber went adrift. We have no data
by which to ascertain the actual loss sus

Good Spring B head. Spread eight
quarts of flour iu your bread bowl'. so as to
leave a large cavity in the centre. Make
two quarts of sifted white cornmeal into
mush, by boiling it in either water or milk,
and when it becomes cool enough to add th
yeast without scalding it, turn it into the
flour, stir in warm milk or water, mixing in
a portion of the flour ; add a teacupfull of
good hop. yeast; cover the whole closely,
and let it stand. over night. Knead" it well
in the morning and make it into loaves. It
will rise soon near the fire. Bake it thorough
ly, and you will have an excellent article of
light, sweet and nutritiousbread, which will
keep moist longer than any other, and make
the flour "hold out' ' wonderfully.
The Citizen Prisoners.
It affords us pleasure to announce that the
effort to which we alluded last week, to have
the citizens held in custody by the military
authorities turned over to the civil courts
for trial, has been successful. The order
has been made, and those from this county
will be tried in the United hta-tes Louit at
Pittsburg. -; We presume they will be ad
mitted to bail, aud in the interval will be
enabled to return home. We think the onlv
men now held for trial are Abel Hiokock,
Price A. Rolls, Philip Sloppy, Daniel Good
laader and Dauiel Bowman. We believe
the others have all been tried, or discharged
on parole. : -

James Eekenrode of White township, Cam

"HELAECHOLY." ' ' '
''The mdinckoh lint of conscripts for
this county will'be found on our first page. .
Republican. . '.
The above is a suggestive sentence.- It
affords a theme for reflection. It carries us
back through the whole history of the war,
which has made this "melancholy lit of
conscripts' necessary. It "awakens many
"melancholy" recollections. It reminds us
of the "melancholy" fact that the war, with
all its disastrous cousequences, was brought
upon the nation by men who called them
selves "Democrats," proving false to their
solemn oaths aud recreant to their sacred
trusts. It recalls the "melarcholy" history
of Buchanan's infamous administration,
when these same "Democrats" plundered
the treasury, robbed the arsenals, scattered
the army, dispersed the navy, stole the forts,
and turned their guns upon the flag of their
Government. It brings to mind the "mel
ancholy" career cf 31'Clellan, all crimsoned
with the blood of the heroic men whose'
bones lie bleaching in the swamps of the
Chicahominy. It revives the recollection
of the "melancholy" scenes in New York,
when the flag of the country was trampled
beneath the feet of an infuriated mob com
posed of men who called themselves "Dem
ocrats." while the streets ran red with inno
cent blood. It brings back the "melancho
ly" story of Vallandigham's treason, aud
the disgraceful "ten-cent contribution" rais
ed for his support. It recalls forcibly to
mind ail the ' 'melancholy' ' acts of. a great
party in the North, of those who call them
selves "Democrats," .by which they have
manifested their sympalhy with the, ene
mies of their country, impeded the Govern
ment in prosecuting the war, prolonged the
struggle, and made this "mel ancholy list of
conscripts" necessary. It forces upon us,
too, the "melancholy" conclusion, that they
have made for themselves a record that ha
no parallel in infamy, save that of the To
ries in the davs of the Revolution.
Death irr DrtowNixo. Joun Graham
a citizen of Graham township, and a broth-
er ot .James L. ranam, Jvsq., or tnis
placo, was drowned on Friday morning, the
17th. He had a raft lying at the river, and
as the water had risen very much during
the night he started to take care of it. On
reaching Moravian run, he found the bridge
swept away, when he attempted to cross on
a pole, but the pole broke just as he reach
ed the middle of the stream. The water
being very swift, he was unable to make his
way to thesiiorc. ana ne sunt to rise no
more. Mr. Graham was a highly respec
table citizen -honest- and -industrious, and
much beloved by all his neighbors; His
J'h is much regretted by the community
at lartre. His body was recovered several
days after, in a p'le of drift some distance
below the bridge, acd interred iu the family
buryiug ground on Monday last.
Ellis Graham, a resMeut of Goshen
township, was also drowned on Friday the
17th, by falling off a raft into the rivCr. He
fell in at the upper end of the raft passed
aong under its whole length, and when he
emerged at the lower end he made an effort
to swim out, but sunk when he was but
few feet from shore. At last accounts his
body had not been recovered.
Maximilion and the Church. On the
17th of last mouth was officially published
in the City of Mexico Maximilion'.s decree
confirming all the confiscations' and sales of
Church property made under former govern
ments, amounting in value to many millions
of dollars. This is a severe blow at the ec
clesiatical rule,-which has swayed Mexico
since its settlement by Europeans. One of
its effects will be the establishment of .reli
gious toleration ,in the country,, and , it has
consequently caused intense excitement a-
mong the priests and the Church party gen
erally. ; Another decree, merging the
Church power into that -of the State, was
expected soon to follow. "v '
Abolition tnt the Sorrn. The act of the
rebel Congress providing for arming the
slaves, limits the number to one-fourth of
those ot the several States, between the ages
eighteen and forty-five, the slaves not to be
iiberated without consent of their owners.
The whole number to be raised is 300,000,
including free negroes. This measure will
practically result ti -abolition. By refusing
togive legal recognition to the act of freedom,
the rebels deprive themselves ot toreiim aid
and sympathy, and do not materially help
their cause at home, or put off the day of
freedom to the blacks. "Slavery Ls dead in

Caroliua, and our Western braves of the 23d
corps recognized in their front their old ac
quaintances of Hood's army, whom they
had met many tunes m the neighoorhDOdoi

centrated nearly their whole force south of

so much information in a brief dispatch.

Guard Hocse, llarrisburg, 3Iar. 13, 1S65.
Mb. Row. In looking over' the Clear
jield JiepuUican, of March 8th, I see that
Daniel has devoted a good deal of his space
to my sole use. Tie says it was not the ob
ject of the meeting to resist the draft. I say
he tells a plain unvarnished lie. They were
to resist the draft, and he knew it. You
boast Daniel, of your brave, bold, true men,
and you say I acted Judas. You lie in this
too. I was not hired by any man. At the
meeting in August I was taught to give no
man or no money to the, war, and did I go
to Harrisburg and put in a substitue? Who
acted Judas first Daniel ' Was it me or your
mend v allace f
What I said is true. I defy you or any
otner man in Ulearheld to ueny that the
meetings we held were not for resisting the
draft. You know that every man that went
to the August meeting, went there to hear
of a way to resist the draft. Do you know
Daniel, that it was through your friend
Wallace that I was arrested the last time ?
He went to .Capt. Johnson and demanded
that Wilhelm should be released or that I
should be arrested. He knew that Wilhelm
could not be released, but that I could be
arrested. .. It was his jealousy that caused
my arrest Daniel. Ho saw ; that I had got
out without his help, or that of his friends,
and he determined I should be put in again.
Go to him if you want to find a Judas,
Daniel.
I never went tooneot the secret meetings,
until Wilhelm sent Lansberry to my house
to get me to come. He come twice before
I consented to attend. If it was only a
Democratic meeting, Daniel why did you
not come to Harrisburg, and tell it sooner?
Come yet, Daniel and may-be we can recov
er damages for lost time. But you know in
your heart that the meeting was to resist the
draft. The Co nstitution is good but the
by-laws, Daniel, some of them are hard.
Did you ever see the b3T-la ws of a sub-di vison ?
Now Daniel keep cool and don't bite your
self, I ask no more of you or your masters.
Your teachings have got me into all the
trouble I am now in, and I will get out
without your assistance or that of your
masters. I have always been in favor of
what is right and honest and am vet. and if
you don't like what I have done, vou can
take the less of it, aud I will do as I please.

Intelligence from Gea. Sherman.
New York, March ir. The Herald's
Wilmington dispatch dated March 11, says
two of Gen. Sherman's scouts named George
W. Quimby and Mayron J. Amicktbe same
who communicated with Gen. Foster on the
Ogeechee, reached Wilmington on the 10th.
They left Sherman at Laurel Hill, marching
on an-1 expecting to reach Fayetteville either
ilh night of the tenth or morniug of the e
leventh. Boats started at once up the Cape
Fear river, to remove obstructions and open
communication to Fayetteville. General
Sherman met no serious opposition on his
march, and fought no battles. Rebel scouts
have Ijeen hovering round him constantly.
A division of cavalry under General Mc
Butlers is in his rear. Dick Taylor has not
leen seen, rebel reports ;o the contrary not
withstanding. General Sherman crossed the
Great Pedee at Chcraw on the 4th. . The
town, on the south bank, was entrenched,
but the rebels made a feeble defence. Sher
man's cavalry dashed in on the run. In
their flight they chivalrously left to our men
seventeen guns in position. Four more were
found on the north bank. The rebels ap
peared contented wirh acting as an escort to
Sherman's army, trotting along in front as
if they had captured his whole aru', and
they also had a division of very .peaceable
cavalry 10; 'owing behind.
