The present number closes the 11th vol
time of the Raftsman's Journal, and as a
change is being made in the business manage
ment of the establishment, it is necessary to
fettle up the books. All persons knowing
. themselves indebted,' are, therefore, desired
to pay up their balances as goon as possible

cannot do sooner, the opportunity of settling.

The "Soldiers' " Eesolution.
The Copperhead papers are making i
great ado about the action of the Union
State Convention, in refusing to adopt Hon
Lemuel Tod's substitute for the 11th reso
lution, as reported by the committee, which
ia as follows :
'That this Convention, representing the
loyal people of Pennsylvania, recognizes the
claims or our citizen soicuera on our confi
dence and ffr&titaue: and that in noraina
tions for offices especial reerard should be
paid to the claims of those who have faith
fully served their country in the army or the
navy in the suppression of the rebellion."
MrTod's substitute reads thus :
"That this Convention, representing the
loyal people of Pennsylvania, recognizes the
claims or our citizen soldiers, in its con
fidence and gratitude, as superior to all oth
ers ; and that, in token of the sincerity ot
this, its declaration, it will nominate none as
candidates for office who have not proved
their loyalty and patriotism by services in
the field cgaiastr the enemies of the Re
public." And yet, after declining to pass this sub
stitute of Mr. Todd, for the reason, as stat
ed by those who opposed it, that it was un
necessary to establish by vote what was so
clearly the impulse of gratitude, the Con
vention on the first ballot nominated two of
the bravest soldiers of the republic, by over
whelming votes, for the State officers to be
chosen in October. The Copperhead papers
copy the vote on Mr. Tod's substitute, but
make no reference to the action of the Con
vention on the nominations 1
Last week a great excitement existed ia
Pittsburg in consequence of the discovery of
the body of a man, on Boyd'a Hill, with his
throat cut from ear to ear, and his body
terribly mutilated by numerous wounds.
So far no one has been identified as the
murderer. On Friday the excitement was
rendered more intense, if possible, by the
arrest of a Mrs. Grinder, charged with the
persistent poisoning of a number of persons
who were guests at her house at various
times. Among her victims are Mrs. Mary
C Carothcrs, who died on August 1st, and
her husband, James S. Carothers, who had
been poisoned but recovered the wife of
Mr. James 31. Johnston, was poisoned about
the middle of August and is in a critical
condition Samuel Grinder, an invalid sol
dier and brother-in-law, was poisoned and
died in March an "old lady named Gallagher,
the infant of a soldier's widow, and a Miss
J. R. Buchanan seven in number.

The trial of Wirtz, the keeper of the An

THE UNION CANDIDATES.
The Union State Convention, did a good
day's work for the State and the JNation,
when it presented for the suffrages ot the
loyal people of Pennsylvania two .of her
noblest heroes, who have braved treason on
the sanguinary field from its first deadly as
sault npon the government ic 1861, until it
yielded to discomfiture in 1865 ; and the
faithful voters of the State will rally to their
standard with an earnestness and zeal which
cannot fail to command success.
Mai. Gen. John F. Ilartranft, the nomi
nee for Auditor General, is a native of Mont-
. t i T T
gomery county, lie graduated at union
College, iSew lork, in l bod, and comuienc
ed lite as a civil engineer. Subsequently
he studied law and was engaged in the prac
tice of his profession in Norristown when
the war broke out in 1861. lie raised the
4th regiment of Pennsylvania volunteers for
the three months service, and commanded
it until the first dav of the first Bull Run
battle, when his regiment left the field be
cause cf the expiration of its term of service.
Col. Ilartranft refused to retire with his
command, and volunteered to serve on Gen.
Franklin's staff, in which capacity he acted,
durinsr the disastrous engagement and re
treat, with matchless heroism. Immediately
after M'Dowell's defeat, he raised a new
regiment, the 51st, and joined the Army of
the Potomac, lie was assigned to uen
Bnrnside, and served with him in his bril
liant North Carolina campaign. After M'
Clellan's retreat on the Peninsula, be rejoin
ed the Arruv of the Potomac, and shared
the bloody struggles of that army at the
second Bull Run, Antietam, Fredericksburg
and Chancellorsville, when he was transfer
red with Burnside to Tennessee. In the
snrvpssfn! resistance of the sieere of Knox
ville, Gen. Burnside acknowledged himself
prealv indebted to the eninneerinr ot Lol
Ilartranft. In January, 1864, his regiment
re-enlisted for three years, and he was again
transferred with Gen. Burnside to the Army
of the Potomac, where Gen. Grant assigned
him the command of a brigade in the 3rd
division of his corns. He narticiDated in all
the battles from the Raoidan to the James
in 1S64, and was commissioned Brigadier
General, to rank from May 12th, lfc(S4, for
gaant services from the Wilderness to
Hatcher's Run. Early in April last the
rebels a.-uultd and captured FortSteadmai,
one of Gen. Grant's outer defences, and to
Gen. Ilartranft was assigned the duty of re
capturing the lost position. How nobly he
did it i3 familiar to all, and he was breveted
Major Ger.eral for his heroism and skill as a
commander. He was one of the few volun
teer officers retained in the service when the
army was disrarideu. and when nominated
on the 17th he was on his way to Tennessee
to assume the duties of his new command.
Gen. Ilartranft acted with the Democratic
party until it arrayed itself against the cause
of his imperiled country ; but in 1863,
when home on sick leave, he manfully
espoused the Union cause, and gave his vote
and influent tn streethen the principles for
which he had drawn his sword. His county
and immediate section were largely Demo
cratic, and had he heeded the whispers of
ambition he would have remainded with his
old political friends, with whom he was a
favorite ; but too honest to sustain those
who were in sympathy with the murderous
enemies of the goverenment, he declared
himself in favor of Gov.Curtin's re-election,
and has since given his vote and influence
in support of the Union party. He is just
in the prime of life hardly thirty-Jive, in
telligent, energettic and of spottlessvintegri
ty, and lie is just the man to entrust with
tbe responsible duties for which he has been
nominated.
Some account of the history of Col. Jacob
M. Campbell, our candidate for Surveyor
General, will also be of interest to our read
er''. He was born in the eastern part of the
State, but when quite young removed with
his parents to Allegheny City. He soon after,
we bel.eve, engaged with his uncle, Mr.
Weyand, ofI3edford, Pa., to learn the print
ing business, which he followed for several
years. Not finding the pursuit congenial,
he abandoned it and returning to Allegheny
he followed stearu-borting on the western
rivers for a number of years, when he mar
ried a young woman in Allegheny City, and
engaged as an iron worker at the Brady's
Bend iron works. Here he gainod a thor
ough knowledge of the process of manufac
turing railroad iron. Col. C.VMP3ELL may
be termed, in the best sense of the expres
sion, a man of the working class, with which
he closely sympathizes. His sagacity and
close attention to business has enabled him
to secure a handsome competence. In con
sequence of his skill in the manufacture of
railroad iron, he- subsequently obtained an
important position in the Cambria iron
works at Johnstown, where, for many years
he conducted the manufacture of railroad
bars with success. He remained in their
works until the war broke out, and immedi
ately after the battle of Bull Run in 1S61,
he raised the 54th Penn'a Regiment, and
joined the army of the Potomac, where he
and his command served with unfaltering
heroism in nearly if not all the terrible
battles against Lee. His record as an officer
and soldier is a glorious on2. lie was often,
and justly complimented,' for his bravery
and skill, by his superior officers on the field.
In addition to his gallant services in the
army, Col. Campbell showed his confidence
and deep interest in his country's welfare iu
another way. In the early history ot the
war, he was amoDg the first men in Western
Pennsylvania to come forward and aid the
State by a loan of thirty thousand dollars,
fcr the purpose of defraying the expenses of
raising volunteers thus showing that he
was a devoted Union man, both in practice
and principle. Col. Campbell quite recently
has aided in the organization or a manufac
turing company in Johnstown, and is himself
one of the principal stockholders and mana
gers in the business. He is an excellent
mechanic, and a man of more than ordinary
skill and intelligence. He is a self-made
man, and owes his success entirely to his
own efforts a gentleman of the highest char
acter, honest and eminently qualified for the
position for which he is named.
All the nominees on the Huntingdon
connty Union ticket, with a single exception,
are veteran soldiers, and two of thetn are
cripples for life.

THE REBEL STATE DEBT. .
There is a phase of the financial trouble J
wnicn is aoout to aueub iue ouuiu iu lue
, . , . 1 . 1 fi
is about to anect the ooutn in
propersettlen.ent of which there is likely yet
to be dimcuity. llie Uonlederate debt, it
is admitted, is gone beyond the power of re-
demption. There is no Confederacy to find
the means ot payment, and the immense
amount of paper issued to supply the means
of carrying on the war is utterly worthless.;
It cannot be redeemed by any agency now
existing. lsut the matter may be ainerem;
in relation to the debts of the various Statetf
contracted during tue rebellion, ana ior iuv
purpose of carrying on the war. Ihese ex
penditures were mainly for militray purposes
tor tbe defense oi tne estate according to in
phrase most usual, but in detending in
State the Uontederacy was at tne same urn
assisted. By loyalists the Southern btati
debts will be considered as offensive as thi
Confederate debt, and to assume the pay4
ment of any of the former, would be ur-f
pleasant ta contemplate, yet it issomewh:;
difficult to preceive how something of thai
sort can be avoided if the people of tra
Southern States should incline to that policy
after restoration. . . I
Large amounts of the States obligation
are in the hands of the leading politiciars,
those unscrupulous fellows who take ctre
only of their own interests. They will natur
ally desire to render their evidences of debt
valuable, and they will arguethat as they
are issued bv the State, the .State should
not repudiate them. TheyiH contend the
State de jure is bound bthe act or the
St ate de facto, and that 'though there has
been a change ot adnn'ration. tbe rights
which accrued under fformer government
survive. Under argents like these there
will be undoubtedlvtrong efforts to cause
the assumption othe Rebel State debts,
and in pursuancf that policy appeals will
be made to theride, andevon to the patri
otism of the Wotees of the late Rebel con
spiracy. T mei1 wno fought for a bad
cause will appealed to by the memory of
their sufffnSs t0 "enl their influence to in
crease t-e taxation which it to be put upon
them. Jhose who remained at home will be
besought not to takead vantage of circunibtan
ces o' repudiate a debt of which they had
iiie whole clas3 of State creditors will be
xnrent in their demands that the State
jdebts thall be paid. Against all this clamor
f there will be no hope except in the judiciary.
Horest judges will decide that a debt con
traced by a State Goverenment not recognize-to
by the Constitution of the United
Staff, and in rebellion against the Union,
is v tfl and cannot bind the legitimate State
Govrnment. Such a decision may be made
in ; State court, but if not, it will be pro
noudod in the Federal courts. The time
ma be postponed, and there may be many
coTTC-vcrsies and quarrels over the matter,
bui whatever the obstacles, to this complex
ion must it come at last.
A Curious Collection.
Ibo most curious collection of individuals
oiniue of a lunatic assylum was seen in the
U..i. Court at Buffalo, (on the 22 August,)?
wh.re a case was tried to determine whether
proassors of spiritualism were subject to
'he ieense tax for practising jugglery. The
Inc nc Commissioner said they were liable
to J such a license, and so notified them;
but lie spiritualists indignantly denied that
their liarvellous manifestations were mere
tricks and impositions, as the other public
performers of jugglery and -slight-oi'-hand
had tie honesty to confess. Hence the
Court sres called upon gravely to determine
the iiwibrtaiit difference between these rival
claimants for public favor, and besides all
t)rcsdigitateurs, magicians, necromancers,
.nowa to the world, there were assembled
all the old women of both sexes, who see
ghobts in the dark, and converse with spirits
through the legs of a table. It was a cu
rious coilfcrion of humanity, embracing the
extreruesfcf human credulity and deception.
Culchtsty, was the defendant in the case.
The Court decided that the spiritualists were
subject tthe license claimed by the U. S.
Comniis.-ipner.

Cluichea North and South. '
The antagonism that has existed between
different tactions of the country has, of
course, arrayed portions of churches against
each other. The same excitement of pas

siderations cf efforts for restoring the old
relations and fellowships, difficulties arise
similar, in their character, to those which
the Governmentencounters in its reconstruc
tion work. But they are more likely, we
fear, to prove insurmountable, since there
are no other than moral considerations that
can be brought to bear on the case. The
operations or the Presbyterian and Episco
pal church do not, thus far, present a very
promising prospect of speedy success. Per
haps it may be as well for both, that the
former relations with their Southern breth
ern should not be precipitately resumed, e
ven if it were practicable. Time may ofb
en asperities of feeling, and lead, if not to
repentance, at least to oblivion of wrong. .

"DEMOCRATIC" STATE CONVENTION
rrua so-called Democracy of Pennsylvania
held their State Convention at Hamsburg
on Thursday the 24th, and put in nomina
tion Col. W. W. II. Davis, of Bucks coun
ty, for Auditor General, and Major John
Linton, of Cambria county, for Surveyor
General. Both served in the army, the lat
ter we believe being attached to the regi
ment of which his competitor on the Repub
lican ticket was Colonel. We are sorry that
two soldiers, with as good military reputa
tion as is claimetf for them, should permit
- -
themselves to be drawn into such bad com
pany. As soldiers, however, they have no
advantage over the Republican nominees,
who earned for themselves names which
will not soon be forgotten.
. The resolutions, which are said to have
been' proposed by Hon Jeremiah S. Black,
and which are of the oily-gammon species,
are as follows :
Resolved, That we, the Democracy of
Pennsylvania, are now, as we always have
been, faithful to the Union of the States,op
pbsing the secession of the South with all
our influence and having no sympathy or as
sociation whatever with that party in the
North which plotted against the Lnion and
pronounced the Constitution "'a coven nt
with death and agreement with hell."
Second. That if the counsels of the Dem
ocratic party had prevailed the Union would
have been saved in all its integrity and hou
or, without the slaughter, debt and disgrace
of a civil war. But when the formation of
sectional parties in the North and in tl e
South, and the adventof one of these parties
into the seats of power made war a fact
which we could not counteract, we sustained
the Federal authorities in good faith, asking
nothing at their hand except a decent res
pect for our legal rights and some show of
common honesty in the management of our
financial affairs, but in both these particu
lars we were disappointed and betrayed.
Third. That the Constitution established
by our revolutionary fathers is entitled to
our unqualified respect and obedience ; the
oath to support it is binding, reliiriously,
morally and legally, at all times, under all
circumstar.ces.and in every part of the coun
try ; upon all public officers, from the high
est to the lowest, as well as upon-private cit
izens; it is only by a strict preservance of
its provisions, and a rigid enforcement of its
obligations in all the States, that we can
hoj e for union, liberty or peace. He who
wilfully violates it, or coun.-els violation bv
others, is a public enemy and dishonest .man.
Fourth. That among the rights guaran
teed to us by the plainest words of the Con
stitution are these : Free press, freedom
from arbitrary arrest and illegal imprison
ment, trial by jury, the writ of habeas cor
pus, the perfect immunity of all persons not
in the army or navy from any species of pun
ishment for crime or pretended crime which
is not the legal consequence of a legal con
viction by an impartial jury, ihe absolute
subordination ot all military power to the
civil authority, and the privilege of white
citizens to vote at the Stat3. elections, ac
cording to the laws of the State.
Fifth. That we fully concur with Presi
dent Johnson in the conviction expressed by
him in l60, and repeated several times
since, that the Federal Government is sov
ereign within its proper sphere ; that it acts
not through or upon the States but directly
upou individuals ; t' at the State could not
absolve the people from their federal obliga
tions ; that the Stateordinances of secession
were nullities, and, therefore, when the at
tempted revolution came to an end by the
submission of the insurgents, the Sta es
were as much a part of the Union as they
had b:'en before. Their people were bound
to the sam? duties and clothed with the
same rights, excepting, of course such rights
as individuals smong them had legally for
feited by their own acts in the meautime,
and we hereby declare so far as we can pre
vent it, the resumption of their proper pla
ces in the Union by those States, some of
whose citizens were lately in rebellion, .-hall
not be impeded or delayed by the unlawful
interference of that faction at the North
which was alwaj'3 hostile to the Union,
which now pronounces it legally desolated,
and which is still malignantly laboring to
nr.-vent its restoration.
Sixth. That the effort now matins bv
certain persons to use the power of the Gen
eral Government with a view to force nesro
suffrage on the States against the will of the
nennle and contrarv to existinff laws, is not
only a high crime against the Constitution,
but a deliberate and wicked attempt to put
tUV UIU lr2 V klllO V-'K&l-'IA tV V J
or less and some of them entirely) under the
the fetates ot this Union (all ot them more
domination of negroes, to Africanize a large
portion ot the country, and degrade the
white race, morally and socially as well as
politically, to the low level of the black.
We will not acknowledge the incapacity of
! our own race to govern itself, nor surrender
the destinies ol the country into the hands
of negroes, nor put themselves under their
guardianship, nor give up to them the polit
ical privileges which we inherited irom our
fathers, and we exhort our brethren in other
States to take up the same attitnde and
maintain it firmly.
Seventh. That we will support President
Johnson in every just effort he may make to
place all the Mates m their proper positions,
to give to them a fair representation in Con
gress, to save them from the curse of negro
equality ; he shall have our hearty approval
when he inflicts legal punishment by means
xm i :i i. jr i . L
of legal tribunals upon offenders against the
United estates, and we will be with him in
every means which looks to the maintenance
of the public credit. Hut our full approval
of his administration can be founded only in
the belief that he will execute the law, the
whole law, and nothing but the law in all
parts of the country ; that he will not allow
tbe military to interfere with State elec
tions ; that h'S will punish kidnapping and
robbery through the legal aut horities, wheth
er committed by Federal officers or private
citizens, aud that he will suffer no persoi
to be murdered by Military Commission,
and upon th ise measures there can be no
compromise ; he that is not for us is against
us. .
Eighth. That in view of our enormous
national debt, the great weight of our State
taxes, and tbe local burdens imposed upon
us in divers ways, economy and retrench
ment becomes an important duty of all rep
resentatives, and to this end the vast stand
nig army now on foot ought to bo abandon
ed, the navy should be reduced, and the
corrupt and extravagant practice lately in
troduced into the Government should be to
tally abolished.
Ninth. 1 hat our revenue I ws need to
be carefully revised in such manner that
while the public credit will be maintained
and the national honor preserved, taxation
will be equal and just
lenth. 1 hat the gallant soldiers of the
Republic, who so nobl3 risked their lives in
defence of the Union and ihe Constitution,
merit and will receive the undying gratitude
of the American people. Living they shall
live iu our warmest affections, and dying
their memories will be cherished for all time
to come. To say, as our political opponents
do, that they fought and bled and died main
ly tor the freedom of tbe negro, is a gross in
sult on their patriotism and an outrage
which will be indignantly resented by their
surviving comrades through the ballot box.
rJeventh. Ihat the noble manner in
which the Democratic press of this Common
wealth have contended in the defence of the
liberties of the nation, amid trials and diffi
culties almost unparalleled, is deserving of
our grateful recognition, and should entitle
it to the encouragement of every constitution
loving citizen
Iwelfth. That we reaffirm our adherence
to the Monroe Doctrine.
The resolution were adopted. Dr. Acker,
of Montgomery, requested that his name be
recorded as not voting. The Dr. stated
that a portion of "the resolutions were ap
proved by him, but others were not, and he
made an attempt to give an explanation on
the subject but was not permitted to do so,
the "unterrified" probably fearing that a
discussion might follow which would place
some of them in an uncomfortable position.
Wm. A. Wallace, E.sq., of Clearfield, was
appointed Chairman of the State Central
Committee. We are curious to see how
William will explain his opposition to the
bill giving the soldiers the right to vote
while in the army. "We will see what we

Salt Lake papers notice the arrival of a
train from Leaven worth only eleven months
and twenty days out. The train started
with flour for the' troops at Salt Lake, but
wis harrassed by Indians during the fall of
18C4, frozen in over winter, and didn tthaw
out till very late. They ate up the flour and
some ot the mules, and arrived among the
bamts very much used up and disgusted.
Considering that the contractors will have
to pay for the flour and get nothing for car
rying it, their speculation is very much like
that of the Ohio hog dealer who returned
only consoled with baving''had the company
of the hogs down. ' '
