A Bich Performance.
On Friday last, September 1st, the "har
monious" Democracy met at Luthersburg,
in this county, for the purpose of nomina
ting a candidate for Assembly. Shortly be
fore the appointed hour, as we are informed,
the Conferees from Clearfield and Forrest
counties were induced through the " Spir
itual influence" of some renowned political
jug-gler, to meet and organize which was
accordingly done. After the organization a
committee, consisting of one Short Irish
man, was appointed to inform the Conferees
of Elk county, that they had organized and
were now ready to proceed with the nomina
tion, and that they wanted them, (the Elk
men) to come in. But Dr. Early, and the
. Elk county conferees, "couldn't see the
point, and departed leaving the Clearfield
"wire-pullers in all their glory. Presto,
change! and Dr. Early was kicked overboard
and Dr. T. Jefferson Boyer nominated I
That the whole affair was a rich and racy
performance, will not be denied ; and is only
equaled by the mysterious slight-of-hand
tricks of the famous Signor Blitz. How
this "harmonious" piece of political jug
glery will be received by the more respecta
ble portion of the "unterrified," remains to
be seen.
Hon. Samuel Linn.
A report has been put in circulation by
certain officious and meddlesome persons for
their own purposes, that Judge Linn was
about to resign, in order to accept the ap
pointment of State Reporter. We have
been assured by Judgo Linn himself that
the story is entirely false that he has no
present intention of resigning, and would
only consent to do so in obedience to the
expressed wishes of the responsible business
men of the District. It is only just to say
that there has never been a Judge upon the
Bench, in this county, who gave more gen
eral satisfaction, and none whose resignation
would be more universally regretted. We
are glad therefore to assure our readers, that
the report above alluded to is entirely with
out foundation.
Hon. G. W. Scofield.
TVe clip the following paragraph from the
Erie Gazette, of August 23d:
Our able and efficient Representative in
Congress, Hon. G. W. Scofield, has ac
cepted the invitation extended him to deliv
er the Annual Address before the New York
State Fair, to be held at Utica next month.
He will, we doubt not, acquit himself cred
itably on the occasion. Referring to Judge
Scofield, we are reminded of the remark
made to us & few days ago by an eminent
citizen of our State, "that he regarded him
as one of the ablest members of Congress
from Pennsylvania." lie added that 'his
speech in reply to James Brooks was a mas
terly effort, ranking with the best pronounc
ed either in the House or Senate during the
last aession."
On Monday morning, during the violent
thunder ptorm which prevailed, the distil
eiy of Mesrs. Edward Ames & Co. at Chica-
go-was struck by lightning. The electric
shaft made for its mark a large alcohol tub,
the cover of which was blown off and the
contents ignited. Through the presence of
mind ot bit. Hutchinson, the distiller, the
flames were speedily extinguished.
The Soodier's Remember. The Cop
perhead papers throughout the country are
endeavoring to explain away the force and
meaning of the taunts and insults they heap
ed upon the soldiers in the service by calling
them "Lincoln hirelings." The Copperheads
now wince, and well they may. The soldiers
have not forgotten thia. Nor have they for
gotten the fact that these men an the same
who boasted that they had. refused to vote
' 'a man or a dollar ' to aid and support them.
Speech of Majpja.JHartranft.
The teoDle of Ndlrtffcown. last week, ser
enaded the Hero of Fort Steadman. now the
J Union candidate foSLuditor General. Af
tter a cowgratulary speech by Benjamin F.
Hancock, Gen. Hartranft responded to the
calls of the people as follows :
. Mr Fellow Citizens: T. thank you
most sincerely for this compliment to night.
It assures me that you endorse my past pub
lic life and that I hold jour confidence and
support in the public contest soon to be in
augurated. I also thank you, Mr. Hancock,
for the kind mention of my military history.
Of this I will not speak nor detain you but
a moment.
As a soldier I feel it my duty to give my
humble aid to the great party which has
during the rebellion so nobly supported the
Government in the struggle for existence
and national honor. It put forth its strong
arm and assisted the Government in filling
our depleted ranks. If this had not been
done we would still be digging in frontof Pe
tersburg, or perhaps been compelled to ac
cept a dishonorable peace. To do this in a
righteous cause would have been a disgrace
to every soldier. If the soldier is true to
himself he must be true to the Union party.
His pension list, his bounty for his early en
listment, his right of suffrage, his protection
through life all appeal to him.
I need not say that every effort should be
made now to protect and encourage labor.
You well understand that it is the wealth of
a nation. And while this is so, also from
patriotic considerations see that the return
ed soldier is honorably employed. It is the
highest favor that can be bestowed upon him
or his country. He will then soon forgethis
camp lite and become an industrious and
prosperous citizen.
The military power of the rebellion is
crushed, I may say forever, and the nation
looms up amidst the ruins more grand and
powerful than it ever seemed before. But
rememlter the spirit of rebellion is still alive
and must be more carefully guarded. Let it
be shorn of all political power, for in that is
concealed all its strength and danger.
I hope soon to see the immense armies of
the iNorth and south engaged in civil and
peaceful pursuits, all adding their energy to
restore our happy, glorious country to its
former wealth and prosperity. Allow me a
gain to return my thanks for your compli
ment. Emigration South.
Should a large and spontaneous current
of emigration set in toward the South, it
will be a thing to be wondered at, an anom
aly, almost, in the history of modern migra
tions. Emigration both from the North and
South has been mainlv Westward. The
same attractions which have caused this ac
icdental tendency continue to operate. No
new attraction in the South will be likely to
produce a cross current of any considerable
magnitude. It is time, that very many per
sons, in the aggregate, were residents of the
South, according to the last census, who
had been born in other States. But they
had gone thither ; that is, of men who ex-
Eect to make their living or their fortunes
7 personal, practicable labor on farms. For
such, as a general thing, the West has still
more attractions than the South. Tho ef
forts of Emigration Associations will not be
likely to cause the removal Southward of
this class; but this, and the manufacturers
with capital, are the classes which are most
needed in the Southern States. Common
labor is sufficiently abundant there already,
if it were well employed and well directed,
as it will be, if well paid.
Kentucky.
Excluding the new, thinly-peopled Wolfe
County which is reported to have given a
pro-Slavery majority of 12 the total vote
for State Treasurer compares with that for
President last Fall as follows :
1S64 President.
McClellan. 64,301 Total.
Lincoln. 27,786 92,087
1865 Treasurer.
Garrard. 42.240 Total.
Seal. 42,082 84,322.
Pro-Slav, maj 153.
Pro-Slav maj 36.815.
Several counties made no return last Fall
because ot the War, and "Little Tennessee"
(that portion of Kentucky westward of Ten
nessee River) gave but a light vote and a
small pro-Slavery majority, owing to the ab
sence of her men in tha Rebel armies. No w
they are at home and voted in spito of the
law, substituting a "Conservative" for a
"Radical" Representative in Congress, and
giving a heavy majority for Garrard much
heavier than the district gave McClellan.
But for this, the Emancipation victory
would have been overwhelming.
The Cincinnati Inquirer, the leading or
gan of the copperheads of Ohio, still insists
that the war has been a failure. The Doyles
town Democrat, owned and controlled by
W. H. Davis, the copperhead candidate for
Auditor General, has never changed its
opinion on the same subject. When the
Government was forced to resort to arms to
put down the slaveholders' rebellion, Mr.
Davis' newspaper declared that it was infa
mous thus to treat the Southern people,
who had a right to secede, and up to this
time, that same sheet insists that the war
has been a failure. According to Mr. Davis'
own showing, he has been a failure as a sol
dier, and yet he wants people to vote for
him on his military merits. Telegraph. ,

A Pire in the Sear. f
All good soldiers take every precautioa,'
as they advance on the enemy, to prevent the
forces which they lead being assailed by a
fire in the rear. This was not the case with
CoL Davis, the copperhead candidate for
Auditor General Vi hen he marched to the
contest with traitors, he left an enemy be
hind in the shape of a newspaper he owned
and cotrolled, which was unceasing and nnre
lenting in its abuse of those in authority,
and in its fiercely tenacious misrepresenta
tion of the objects and the effortsof the Gov
ernment to put down rebellion. If half the
charges could be proven which CoL Davis'
own journal preferred against those engagedin
sustaining theGovemment, he would standjto
day fairly accused of murder, rapine androb
ery. And yet for being engaged in what
his own newspaper characterized as damnable
outrages on the people of the South, CoLDav
is asks the people of Pennsylvania to elect
him to a high office. Was ever inconsistency
more impertinent and ridiculous.

"Farewell dear Charlie, with sorrow we leave
thee, .
In the grave calmly sleeping, secure from all
strife ;
No pain, and no sorrow, nor harm shall t&ere
reach thee.
Or hinder thj waking again into life.
We loved the most dearly, the parting was
fearful.
It grieved ns to lay thee so soon in the grave,
Bat He who first gave thee, has seen fit to take
thee.
And we still trust in his power to save, ...
With the sound of the trnmphet , the Savior
descending.
Will wake all the nations ; the sleeping will
rise ;
We hope then to meet thee in glory immortal.
With voices seraph ie, the Savior to praise."
(Note : It would perhaps be consoling to the
relitivea and friends of the late Sergt. Hemphill,
to know that it was merel j lack of time, that pre
vented a Company meeting, and passage of Reso
lutions, at the the time of his death. And we
can now only repair the delay, by the meeting of
Officers and men. now in this immediate vicinity,
(composing in part the defunct Co. F, 211 th P. V.)
hoping it will be taken as the will and wishes of
the whole organization, as we have evidence to
believe it to be. -
Charles E. Hemphill was a member of
Co. F, 211th P. V.. I., with the rank of 3rd
Sergt, and acting marker of the regt At
a meeting of the undersigned officers and
members of the late Co. F, the following
preamble was read and abodted :
Vhereas, it has pleased Almighty God,
in his afflicting dispensation, to remove from
us by death, our esteemed comrade and
brother soldier, Charles E. Hemphill, leav
ing us to deplore his untimely loss ; And
whereas, this body being duly impressed
with a sense of his attachment to the com
pany, and of his amiable disposition, and
as a proper respect for his memory demands
suitable action on the part of Co. F, it is
th erefore
Resolved, That Co. F., in the death of
Sergt Hemphill, has lost "a worthy and ef
ficient member, and the Union a brave sol
dier. Generous to a fault, manly and winning
in his ways, he made himself unanimously
beloved by his associates and by attention to
duty won the esteem and respect of his su
perior officers.
ResolceA, That we sincerefy sympathize
with his friends in their very severe bereave
ment, in the common loss that we have sus
tained ; and by it they are solemly admonished
of the extreme uncertainty of life and the
instability of human affairs, and that we
hereby tender to them our sympathy and
regard.
Resolved, that a copy of the foregoing be
sent to the parents ot the deceased, and a
copy to the Raftsmaa s Journal and Clear

According to the Constitution of Ohio,
the vacancy in the Gubernatorial chair cre
ated by the death of Gov. Brough, will be
filled by the Lieutenant Governor, Colonel
Charles Anderson, of Dayton, a brother of
Maj. Gen. Anderson, of Fort Sumter fame.
Col. Anderson is a native ot Kentucky. At
the breaking out of the rebellion he was re
siding in Texas, but escaped to the North
and became a resident of Dayton. He was
nominated for Lieutenant Governor in the
fall of 1863 and stumped the State of Ohio
with great force, contributing largely by his
eloquence to the success of his ticket He
is an able, sincere and pure minded man.
The Philadelphia North American well
says of Gov. Curtin : "He has saved Penn
sylvania from an ocean of debt, and it is to
his credit mainly that the finances of the
commonwealth are now in a far better con
dition than they have been during the past
twenty years. - V ery lew states ot this U
nion can say this after the experience of the
past five years. The fidelity displayed by
mm towara me citizens or tne pending war,
has been everywhere the subiect of praise.
No soldier of Pennsylvania has been by him
left uncared for anywhere. To this record
even the Democratic members of the Legis-
ture have occasionally borne testimony."
There are few countries, which if well cul
tivated, would not support double the num
ber of their inhabitants, and yet fewer where
one-third part ot the people are not extreme
ly stinted even in the necessaries of life. I
send out twenty barrels of corn, which would
maintain a family in bread for a year, and
bring back in return a vessel, of wine, which
half a dozen good fellows would drink in less
than a month, at the expense.of their health

Mr. Joseph Evans, of Erie, Pa., met with
a most lamentable, untimely and melancholy
death on Friday last While sawing an or

flying into several pieces,, one of which

As the fall elections will soon be coming

duly enrolled who departed from the Juris
diction of the districts in which they were

in whose hands the1 records were last seen,
has peen placed under arrest by the military
arthonties untu he ctc give a satisfactory
account of the dispositioahemade of them.
It is thought by some that the xtcords were

The latest news of the Brother Jonathan
disaster states that only fifteen adults and
two children were saved ; that two boats were
swamped alongside the ship, and three boats
were left on board ; that boats sent out to
the rescue were unable to discover anything
of the wreck, and had returned. When
Gen. Wright was last seen he had a life-preserver
in his hands, but his fate is unknown.
Squirrel Law. As there appears to be
some misapprehension in regard to the time
when grey squirrels are legally "shootable,"
we would state, for the benefit of all con
cerned, that the act of April 2, 1862, fixes
the time from the 1st of September to the
last of December. The law inflicts a pen
alty of five dollars for killing them at any
other time. .
