CLEARFIELD, PiL, JUNE 28,1865.
; , ' ' THE NEWS.
President Johnson has given, in a late
speech to a delegation of South Carolinians,
a very plain and satisfactory expression of
his opinion on slavery and the right of a
State to secede. lie says, "A State cannot
go out of the Union, and therefore none of
them having gone out we must deal with the
question of reconstruction and restoration.
The institution of Slavery made the issue,
and we might as well meetitas wise and pa
triotic men. All institutions must be subor
dinate to the Government,' and slavery has
given way. lie could not if Jie would re
mand it to its former status. He knew that
some whom he now addressed looked upon
him as a great people's man and a radical,
but however unpleasant it might be to them,
he had no hesitation in raying that before
he entered upon this subject he was oppos
ed to monopolies and perpetual entails. We
had a monopoly South in slaves. Being
providentially brought to his present condi
tion, he intended to exert the power and in
fluence of tbe Government so as to place in
power the popular part of the nation. The
Constitution of tuo United States, in speak
in? cf per-on., to be chosen a.s Representative-b
Congress, says that the electors in
each State shall have the qualifications re
quisite for electors cf the most numerous
branch of the State Legislature. All the
States were in the Union, but a portion of
them rebelled. There is a Constitutional
obligation resting upon the United States
Government to put down rebellion, suppress
insurrection and repel invasion. The slaves
went into the war as slaves, and came out as
freemen of color. They have rubbed out
the nature and character of slavery. He
would say to the delegation that slavery is
gone as an institution. There was no hope
that the people of South Carolina would be
admitted into the Senate or House of Rep
resentatives until they had afforded evidence
by their conduct of this truth."
The author of the infamous advertise
ment which appeared in the Sclma, (Ala
bama) Advertiser, of Dec. 1st, 1865, offer
ing one million of dollars to procure the as
eination of Lincoln, Johnson and Seward,
was brought to Washington on June 21st,
ti ndr Test. The scound rels n anie is G ayle.
He is a lawyer by profession, and resides at
Catawba, about ten miles from Seluia. He
admits that he wrote the advertis3ment and
paid for its insertion in the Selnia paper,
but claims that it was intended merely as a
joke upon the community. Two composi
tors, employed in the Advertiser office, one
of whom placed the advertisement in type,
were also brought along as witnesses against
Gayle. It is to be hoped that this wretch
will be punished as he deserves.
The assassin Atzerott, on Wednesday, sub
mitted to the Court before which he was on
trial, a statement, or confession, admitting
that he was one of a party engaged to cap
ture though not to kill the Presiden, and
stating that on the evening of the assassina
tion he met Booth and Payne, and Booth
proposed to him that he should tafce charge
of Vice President Johnson, while Payne
should take Mr. Seward, and Booth him
self would attend to President Lincoln and
Gen. Grant. Though the diabolical wretch
declares that he refused to take part in this
arrangement, his confession only serves to
remove the faintest doubt that he was really
one of the party engaged in the fiendish
work and to rivet the crime upon the assas
sin of Mr. Seward.
Mrs. Wm. II. Seward died at Washing
ton on June 2 1st, of an illness caused by
care and exertion for her family since the
terrible night of the 14th of ApriL She
was a most estimable Christain lady, and
her unexpected death is a hard blow to her
already deeply stricken family.
The Ohio Union Stat? Convention met at
Columbus yesterday, and nominated Gen.
J. D. Cox as candidate for Governor by ac
clamation.' A. S. M'Durney, of Warren
was also nominated for Lieutenant-Governor
and J. Brinkerhoff for Attorney-General.
President J ohnson has issued a proclama
tion app iirtitig Lewis E. Parsons Provision
s.T Governor of Alabama. Its terms are
precisely the same as, and identical in lan
guage with, those issued on Monday for
Mississippi and Texas.
Edmund Ruffin, Sr., of Virginia, com
mitted suicide on last week, at his sons res
idence near Danville. This venerable ruf
fian fired the first gun in the attack on Sum
ter in 1861. Surely, the way'of the trans
gressor is hard.
A fresh impetus has recently been given
to the gold mining excitement in Australia
by reported extraordinary successes. One
company recently struck a lead mine which
yields at die rate of a million and a quarter
dollars per year. '
HAED ON SNEAKS. !
Xo small number of able bodied men have
left the limits of the United States, oi have
dodged about from town to town and state
to state to avoid the dreaded conscription.
Many of these left family and property be
hind them with some indefinate idea that
they would return and enjoy both as soon as
"the storm blew over." In every case these
men were sneaks and cowards, ho were
willing to live under the forfeiture of that
respect from others which they could not
feel for themselves. A man who is not will
ing to dare for the country he lives in and
the government that protects him, is un
worty any of the rights of citizenship and
ought to be tabooed in all decent society.
This was the opinion of Congress. On the
3d of March, 1865, Congress passed the fol
lowing :
"All persons who have deserted the mili
tary or naval service of the United States,
who shall not leturn to said service or re
port themselves to a Provost Marshal with
in sixty days after the proclamation herein
after mentioned, shall be deemed and taken
to have voluntarily relinquished and forfeit
ed their rights to become citizens ; and such
deserters shall be forever incapable of hold
ing any office of trust or profit under the
United States, or of exercising any rights of
citizens thereof ; and all persons who shall
desert the military or naval service, and all
persons who, being duly enrolled, shall de
part the jurisdiction of the district in which
they are enrolled, or go beyond the limits of
the United States, with the intent to avoid
any draft into the military or naval service
duly ordered, shall be liable to the penalties
of this section. And the President is here
by authorized and required forthwith, on
the passage of this act, to issue his procla
mation setting forth" the provisions of this
section, in which proclamation the President
is requested to notify all deserters returning
within sixty days, as aforesaid, that they
shall be pardoned on condition of returning j
to their regiments and companies, or to such
other organizations as they may be assigned
to, until the' shall have served for a period
of time equal to their original term of en
listment. The President's proclamation in accord
ance with the above was issued March 10th,
and the sixty daj's grace expired on the 10th
of May. Now that the war is over, hun
dreds of these poltroons will come sneaking
back as the sneaked away. Let them be
marked and not allowed to exercise any
rights of citizenship. They deserve the rep
robation of every patriot. The country got
on without them when their help might
have been of some service; let u show
them that the country does not want them
now.
"Republican in Form."
It is a very recent discovery, says the Pitts
burgh Commercial, that the State constitu
tion that does not admit white and black
men on an equality to the polls, is not in ac
cordance with the requirements of the Con
stitution of the United States, which says
State constitutions shall be "Republican in
Form." In strictness this point may be
well taken, but carried out as a rule it would
cut deep and both ways. We believe that,
with hardly any exception, every State in
the Union, North and South, would be driv
en out of Congress, if equality of suffrage
were to be made the test. In rot a single
State, but Massachusetts, we believe, is the
negro admitted to the polls on an equality
with the whites. . Connecticut has just pro
vided for submitting the question to the peo
ple, with the view of establishing the prin
ciple. If Mr. Sumner insists that South
ern States shall be kept out of Congress be
cause they disfranchise a portion of their
citizens for .their color, what is he going to
do with New York, Pennsylvania, and near
ly every other State? Should the South
combine to demand that the reading and
writing test in 3Iassachusetts should be a
bolishedj what 'would he say? Manifestly
just this: "This is a matter that belongs to
us solely a question over which every State,
for itself, has exclusive control ; so please
mind your own business, while wc take care
of our own, in our own way."
Pursue the investigation, and, however,
clear the right of equality may be made to
appear, it nevertheless will come round to
this : the whole question has been left by
the Constitution to the States. Congress
has recognized this principle by never inter
fering with it The States have acted and
do now act upon it ; some by excluding the
negro altogether, as in Pennsylvania, South
Carolina, and some of the other States. We
could wish there was some power to make
these State establish a more just system of
franchise and do right, by letting all men to
the polls according to some test which would
establish their intelligence.
A constitution may, indeed, not be ''Re
publican in Form." Should it be attempt
ed in the reorganization of the Southern
States, to enact cruelties against the eman
cipated blacks, and should other outrages be
committed or attempted, and the "Repub
lican" idea nullified, we can send Senators
and Representatives back till the "form" is
better understood and the idea more correct
ly carried out
No prisoners of war above the rank of
captain are being released at present. The
numerous applications for pardon from pris
oners and civilians are filed away for future
action, and none but exceptional cases are
immediately granted.

Ohio State Union Convention.
The Ohio State Union Convention met at
Columbus on June 22d. Gen. W. B.
Woods was elected President, and.R. Bevis
Secretary of the Convention. Gen. J. D,
Cox was nominated Governor by acclama
tion ; A. G. M'Burney, of Warren, Lieu
tenant Governor; Hon. S. S. Warner, of
Lorain, Treasurer; J. Brinkerhoff, Attor
ney-General ; J ames Moore, Board of Pub
lic Works, and Lieutenant Rodney, Clerk
of the Supreme Court. The Convention
then passed resolutions lamenting the cruel
death of Abraham Lincoln, endorsing the
policy of Andrew Johnson's administration,
that four years of sanguinary war demon
strated that slavery and its institutions were
irrevocably opposed to freedom and free in
stitutions. That while we are anxious for
an early reconstruction of fraternal relations
with the insurgent States, we demand that
it shall be upon such terms as will give as
su ranee of peace and security to the loyal
people, and prosperity to the Federal Union.
Union State Convention.
By a circular received from the Chairman
of the Union State Committee we learn that,
in compliance with the earnest appeals of
many prominent Union men, citizens of dif
ferent counties in the State, urging that the
meeting of the Union State Convention cal
led for the 19th of July, ensuing, be defer
red until further notice, the announcement
is herewith made chat that body will not as
semble on the day (19th of July) set apart
for its meeting in the city of Harrisburg
Due notice will be given of the meeting of
the Convention hereafter.
The postponement of the day of the Con
vention f-hould not, however, interfere with
the selecting of Senatorial and Representa
tive delegates to said body. Let them be
appointed at once, and then when the day
for the meeting is definately fixed, the dele
gates will be ready to respond promptly to
tho call.
Escape of Breckinridge and Party.
The Herald" s Havana correspondent says
of the escape of Breckinridge and his par
ty: "These worthies were all near Jeff. Da
vis when he was captured but managed to
elude the national troops and travelled a
cross the States of Georgia and Florida to
the coast, where they secured a small boat
and put to sea, arriving at Cardenas on the
11th, after three days and nights passed al
most entirely without eating or sleeping."
At Cardenas they were serenaded and receiv
ed marked attention from the Spanish Gov
ernmetand people. They expected to remain
in Havana for some time.
Philadelphia, June 23. Rear Admiral
S. F. Dupont died at the Lapierre House
in this city, at a quarter to five o'clock this
morning. He arrived here from his home
in Washington on Monday, having been
troubled with disease of the throat for the
last three months, originating from dipthe
ria. Since his arrival here his health has
been very good, and last evening he was in
good health and spirits. At four o'clock
this morning he was taken with strangling,
sensations, and expired at the hour named
above. His body will be sent on this after
noon to his home in Wilmington, Delaware.
The Alexandria Gazette says: During the
administration of Governor Slaugh. as mil
itary Governor of that city, and for a period
of nearly three years, the colored people and
freedmen have invested in ground rents,
real estate and improvements something over
fifty thousand dollars. This far exceeds the
amount invested during the same period by
the white population of the city. As a class,
these people are orderly and industrious, and
seem to be able to take care of themselves.
TnE Farmers and the Copperheads.
Many of the farmers in tho benighted
copperhead regions, who read only tory or
gans, which declared that the war would
last at least four years longer, and that such
produce would necessarily command very
high prices. But the sudden triqniph of
the Government has exploded these copper
head predictions as well as his gluttonous
voracity for gain. Telegraph.
The Jacksonville, Florida, Union of the
17th says: A portion of the private bag
gage of Jeff Davis has been secured near
Gainsville, Florida. It consisted of two
boxes and one trunk, containing many im
portant private letters and papers. The
wagon containing the baggage seems to have
been in advance of the flying party, and was
abandoned by those having it in charge on
the evening of Davis' capture.
John Mitchel is imprisoned in the same
manner as Davis and Clay. He is closely
guarded, and studiously denied all inter
views with the outside world. Davis has
fully recovered, but be is not yet able to
subsist on army rations, as does Clay and
Mitchel. All three of the prisoners spend
much time in smoking tobacco, which is
furnished them by the government.
The Hon. Henry Winter Davis will prob
ably deliver the Fourth of July oration in
Chicago, and it is said will take strong
grounds in favor of negro suffrage. Mr.
Davis would have officiated as orator in Bal
timore on the same occasion, had he not re
ceived an earlier invitation from Chicago.
Gen. Howard has information from Ar
kansas and Missouri that the freedmen are
in a flourishing condition. , 1
i Shall Treason Pass Unpunished.
Those who contend that treasou ought not
to be punished, freely quote a passage from
the London Times, as follows : ''We had a
rebellion in 1848 in Ireland, but we disdain
ed to dip our hands in the blood .of rebels.
We pardoned Smith O'Brian, and Mitchel,
and Meagher. In their case there was no
difficulty in ascertaining the law; thecrinie
was perfectly well known, and the punish
ment was equally notorious."
It happened, however, that there was not
a rebellion in 184$ in Ireland. It is one
thing to put a kettle on the fire, another to
make it boil. Smith O'Brian, Thomas
Francis Meagher, and others, who loved
their native lan 1 ' 'not wisely but too well,"
endeavored to raise a rebellion, but failed.
The peasantry, who used to applaud their
eloquent and ferved speeches, declined to
follow them to the field. There was a few
gallant gentleman greatly disposed to raise
a revolt, in England, against British rule,
but they had neither arms nor men, nor
money to purchase arms and support men.
Had the Catholic Priests given any encour
agement, the story might have been differ
ent. But the Priests, with scarcely an ex
ception, had been indoctrined with O'Con
iiel's policy of avoiding all breaches of the
law ; they remembered his advice, though
he was then dead ; and they counselled their
flocks not to violate the law by plunging in
to rebellion. Smith O'Brien, Meagher,
McManus, and O'Donochne "Few and
faint, but fearless still" saw that the affair
had become a dead failure, and, to avoid ar
rest, went into the country, probably hop
ing to remain there until a favorable time
should arrive for their quitting Ireland for
the continent or the United States. They
were arrested, indicted, tried, condemned,
and sentenced to die the death of traitors.
Macauly truly wrote, "Every man who
heads a rebellion against an established gov-
fovernment stakes his life on the event."
lat here, nothing had ripened into rebel
lion. Above all, not one drop of I uman
blood had been shed. The .Ministers of
Queen Victoria therefore judiciously spared
the forfeited lives of the condemned men.
and substituted exile for death. Mitchel
was not pardoned at all (though The limes
says that he was,) for he had been tried and
sent out of Ireland, as guilty of sedicious
writing, months before O'Brien, Meagher,&
Co., were condemned.
First, then, there was not an actual out
break of rebellion in Ireland in 1848. The
leaders failed in the attempt to make a re
volt. It was a bloodless fiasco. Had hu
man life been lost, O'Brian and his friends
would undoubtedly have died on the scaf
fold, like Robert Emraett in 1803. But. in
thecase of Jefferson Davis the very life and
and soul, the mover and leader of the rebellion
the plea which saved the Irish gentleman
cannot be put in. He is mainly answerable
for the miserable condition to which the re
volted South has been reduced by the rebel
lion for the unprecedented loss of human
life during four years of war as devastating
as (on the Union side) it had been unpro
voked and for the debt of three thousand
million dollars which now presses so heavily
upon all classes. Such an outpouring of
blood and treasure the world never saw, and
if Jefferson Davis, who caused all this, is
exempted from the penalty of crime, then
mercy to him will virtually be a bonus for
rebellion. This may sound harsh, but it
is true, and the public will have to realize
that there are occasions when justice really
becomes mercy. Rebellion, it must be
shown, ought not to be allowed to evade the
punishment it has incurred Press.
Gen. S Herman's Opinion. Speaking of
enustirg the negroes in the army, and refer
ring to their discharge. Gen. Sherman said
in one of his letters : "Tha hand that drops
the musket cannot be denied the ballot."
The Copperhead organs which have been
lauding Sherman so highly of late, of course
approve of his sentiment; and as many
copperheads are solicitous that Sherman
should be the next cop. candidate fey the
Presidency, he certainly will be run on a
"nigger platform." Ex.
Punishing Rebels. Gen. Logan, in a
speech in Lafayette, Indiana, a few days
ago, stated that he was "in favor of hanging
Jeff. Davis, Breckinridge, Benjamin, the
whole Rebel Cabinet, and every member of
the Rebel Government who resigned his seat
in Congress to take part in this accursed re
bellion, and until the Government did this,
it had not done the job it undertook."
The Gazette Indianapolis special says : It
is reported that indictments have been
found against Bowles, Milligau, Walker,
and other leading members of the Sons of
Liberty, in the United States Court, as a
safe-guard in case of an adverse decision in
the United States Supreme Court against
the jurisdiction of a Military Commission.
The decision of the Internal Revenue
Department, a year ago, that certified
checks were to be treated as currency, and
taxed accordingly, has been confirmed by
the Solicitor of the Treasury Department,
and now may be considered as finally settled.
The decision is one of great interest to bu
siness men and bankers.
