CLEARFIELD, PA., JAN. 3, 1S65.
The Hew Yeaj.
Sever, since the adoption of the Consti-tntion.'-aa
there been a year so fraught with
important events ta this eountry.as the rear
1865. It will ever hold a prominent place
in American history, a3 a period in which
was consummated the triumph of Republi
canism over its bitter and deadly enemies.
In looking back over its record, three great
occurrences present themselves, each of
which will be remembered forever. The
successful conclusion of the most terrible
conflict the world has ever beheld. The foul
assassination of an idolized PresiJent, who, in
this day of little men, towered far above his
fellows, and athis death left a world in tears.
And last of all, the final and complete
overthrow of that "earth-born Titan, Sla
very," which has for forty years cav.t the
black shadow of its presence over the land.
For this last, and the return of bloa-cd
peace, we have reason to be thankful, and
although we suffer from the depression nat
urally consequent upon the reaction from the
mighty effort of tha past four years, with
that wise legislation which we havs a right
to expect from Congress, and a generous
policy on the part of the President, we can
look forward wl h confidence to a better state
of things daring the ne-7 year. The ama
zing progress that we have made even with
thecarcass of slavery chaiaed to us.and drag
ging us to the dat, 13 aumcient assurance
that we will go forward now more rapidly
than ever. Already we occupy a foremost
place among the nations of the earth, and
with that rest and recuperation which peace
will surely bring m, we may soon hopn, by
our farm idable strength, to command such
respect that we will have but to express our
wishes to have them gratified.
The rapid progre33 of the old year, 13 a
happy augury of greater success in the new,
nd we ft-el assured that, regenerated and
purified ly trouble and terrible conflict, the
nation will now press onward to a high and
noble destiny.
Tlie Sanday Lick Eailrcad.
We were informed several days .since, not
officially however, that the Directors of the
oAu jy ijick ikauroa-i iia.1 resolved to put
an Jer contract at once that part of their road
lying between Philipsburg and Clearfield,
and pusu it to an early completion. We
commend them for their self-reliance, and
tneir determination to build a railroad to
tnis place immediately. We have been of
the opinion for several years past that the
only certain way of gatting a railroad to
thu town at an early day, was for our peo
ple to rely upon their own resources, and
their owa efforts to build the road. But,
wmie this may be the decision of the Di
rectors of the Sanly Lick comDar.v. w
should not hesitate to avail ourselves of any
aia that may be tendered by any other rail
road compiny, or by individuals from a dis
tance. For instanca ; should the Pencil
vania Company feel disposed to throw its
mite into oar "coffers, '.' notwithstanding
their indifference and tardiness heretofore
to extending a road to Clearfield, we would
have no objection; bat, at the ?ame time,
we think the control of the road should re
maio in the hands of the present company,
-a 1 a. . - . -r -r
l icasi ior some time to come. 11 we mis
take not the feelings of this coinmunitv,
such an arrangement alone would prove en
tirely satisfactory to the stockholders in the
road, and meet the expectations of the peo
ple at large. Therefore, we hope that wise
and prudent counsels will prevail with the
Directors, and that they will endeavor to
manage the affairs of the company to the
interest and satisfaction of all concerned,
and so as to covnplete'the road at the earli
est possible moment.

r
Whisky Below Cost.
It is a subject of common remark that
there must be some one cheated in the sale
of whisky and alcohol ' The Excise tax on
whisky is two dollars a gallon, and the tax
on alcohol 13 four dollars a gallon, yet' whis
ky is often bought for two dollars and ten
cents, and alcohol for four dollars and fifteen
cents. As it takes two gallons of whisky to
make one of acohol, it will be seen from the
prices above stated that after the Govern
ment tax is paid there would be but ten cents
left to pay for the maufacture and transpor
tation of a gallon of whisky, and but fifteen
ceatsfor a gallon of alcohoL But these ar
ticles cannot be produced for such low fig
ures.. Before the war, when the grain from
which whUky is distilled was much lower
than it is now, and when labor of all kinds
was much cheaper, the average price of new
whisky wa j about twenty-six cents a gallon,
an I of alcohol about fifty-two cents. It
should.of course, be much heavier now say
fifty cents for the f rmer and a dollar for the
latter. Add to these figures the Govern
ment imposts, and we have, as the honest
price of whisky and alcohol, about two dol
lars and a half for one and about five dol
lars for the other. Yet they are frequently
sold at the low prices above stated. How
this is done it is not easy to understand, un
less there is cheating somewhere around the
board, and one mode of this cheating is be
ing developed in New York by an iavestiga
tion of Custom House frauds going on there.
By the terms of the Internal Revenue laws
any article charged with excise duties is en
titled to a remisf ion of those duties where
it is intended for exporation. This is calied
"drawback." It was under disguise of this
privilege that the fraud was committed.
Certain parties, having a large lot of whisky
in the warehouse, applied for the benefit of
a drawback, and produced the necessary cer
tificates ami their whisky was shipped on
board of a vessel bound for a foreign port
But all these certificates were false and were
procured by. collusion between the owners
of th- whisky and certain Custom House of
ficials. Of course, when the payment of the
Government tax is evaded in this way, it is
easy enough to sell whisky at $2 10 or even
at $1 10, and still have an enormous profit.
This, however, is but one of the ways in
which the taxes are evaded. It seems to a
common-sense observer of such matter?,
that the revenue officers should reeard all
caces of extremely low-priced whisky as jus
tifying a suspicion of fraud.
The Alexandria Riot. An ofneial in
vestigation which has been made into the
causes of the not at Alexandria, on Chi ist-

seces-ionLti of the place, and it can in no
sense be considered in the light merely of a
drunken trawl.

COLONEL FEANCIS J0BDA2T.
A correspondent of the West Chester Ee-
i publican urges the nomination of CoL Jor
dan for Governor by the next Union &tate
Convention. He says :
It may not be improper that the inquiry,
who is to be our next Governor, should now
engage the attention of the people.
Although several names have been occa
sionally spoken of in connection with this
office, and different candidates have been
somewhat urged by their friends, it has hith
erto been deemed injudicious to agitate this
question,, as it might have distracted atten
tion from the questions of great importance
involved in the late canvass. --.
That is successfully over, and the princi
ples upon which and for which it was con
ducted are shown to be deeply imbeded in
the hearts of the people. , They have again
manifested that the mere politicians whose
influence may have controlled them when
the subordinate considerations which shaped
parties years ago were to be passed upon,
had no weight when the integrity of the
Union was before them ; that after the U
nion has been re-cemented with blood, they
are not to be deceived into the support of
men, who, .though now thinly disguised in
garments of patriotism, have just laid aside
the polluted clothing in which they had been
assaulting the Government.
The friends of Col. Francis Jordan, ot
Bedford county, have supposed that, in all
respects, he would meet the wishes of those
who desire that the position in which the
late election left this State should be main
tained. The interests of the-Ct inmon wealth
would be subserved and advanced under an
administration of which he might be the
head, and the standing which she has had
amongst her sisters, in peace and war, would
continue pre-eminent.
Col. Jordan is in the maturity of life, be
ing about forty-five years of age, a lawyer
by profession, he has tor years held a com
manning psace at ine oar or uearora an:
Somerset counties, amongst men of no mean
legal acquirements and reputation.
He served ia the Senate of this State for
three years, ending with 157, and was in
the foremost ranks then, which is to be es
i ii t
tecmca no smau commendation wnen some
of iti other seats were then filled bv Judsre
Vilkin?,Charles B. Penrose,and Glenni W
Scofield.
In the session of 1357, he ably filled the
post of Chairman of the Judiciary Commit
tee, the most important position next to
breaker. Probably to his influence, skill
and exertions more than to that of any other
o fc : . i . i .I ., i .
ocuaiur, is uuu me passage in mat oouy or
the bill for the sale ot the public works.
Private considerations, much to the regret
ot his constituents and the putdic, called on
him to decline a re-election, and he remain
ed in the practice of his profession uutil the
breaking out or the Southern treason in 18
61. Then without his solicitation or know!
edge, he was appointed Pavmaster in the ar
my and served with self-denial and fidelity
for nearly three years, principally in the
bouth-eastern btates.
Uf on the solicitation of Gov. Curtin.abont
two years ago he took charge of ihe Milita
ry Agency of this State at Washington. -
How laboriously and successfully he has
niied mat onice, the recoords ot the military
department of Pennsylvania and of the U-
nited States will show. The gratitude of
many a soldier, and soldier's widow and
mother will testify to the kind attention and
sympathy with which their desires have been
met m that agency.
hroru the beginning of our strusgles with
the traitors, Col. Jordan has left no doubt
of hi3 unconditional loyalty.
His experience,abiity and untiring indus
try, give assurance that the affairs of State
would be skillfully managed under hidirec
tion. Lvcn at'ove all these are placed a
character for high morality and purity a
firm and intelegent intesrity. which would
secure the Commonwealth against the wiles
or assaults of the corrupt.
The memory of none of the eminent men
who have occupied the Executive fdiatnbcr
in this Commonwealth, would suffer any-
tning oy association with the na ne ot Fran
cis Jordan.
Tho Churches South.
It i3 very clearly demonstrated that how
ever much the politicians and statesmen of
the bouth are making every reasonable ef-
ion, to secure admission to tbeir old stan
ding in the Union, the ministers and "religi
ous newspapers of the South are making no
efforts toward reunion with the Churches.
It is claimed by some of the loyal ministers
tnat tne leaders do net represent the people;
that there are multitudes who feel precise
ly as we do, and desire ardently to be one
with us again. The action of Presbvterian
bodies, and the view of the papers of that
aenomination in the bouth ; the fastoral
Letter of the Southern Methodist rhumb.
and the course of the Episcopal Bishop of
ooutn Carolina, are referred to, all goine to
Srove tnat the charge made is "true. The
few York Observer, speaking of the Church
at the bouth, and the Union, says: "But
we would deeply regret to convey the idea
that we, or any others at the North, desire
the reunion of the Churches, if the South
ern Churches prefer to remain by them
selves, union is undesirable, unless cemen
ted by mutual Christian confidence and love.
If the sentiment prevails anions' Southern
Christians that itis right.in the sight of God,
to break up the Union of these States bv
war, why seek to have union with each oth
er in the same Church? If it is wrong, and
they who have partaken of the wrons-. now
see and say that it is wrong, the way is clear
ior an to oe united wnowisn to be again
as we were before the war.

Is needed. When that shall be granted the

tion that the loyal men of the nation require
that iMr. Davis shall be tried for his crimes,
and, if convicted, he shall be punished as
the laws demand. No sane man asks for
wholesale proscriptions, but there is'a very
general desire for the proper vindication of
the dignity of the laws. " "Treason is the
