CLEARFIELD, PA., MAY 30, 1866,
UNION REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET.
for oovkrxor:
Majl Gen. JOHN "W. GEAEY, of dumb. Co.
General Geary.
A correspondent of the Bedford Inquirer,
writing from Lecompton, Kansas, says :
"The Union party of Pennsylvania may
well be proud of their standard-bearer, the
honest man, tried patriot, General Geary.
He made an enviable record during the war in
battiing for his country's rights, while his
opponents did all they could to overthrow
the best political government among men.
Living nn Leconipton where Gen. Geary
acted as Governor during part of the excit
ing times f the Kansas troubles, I have
made considerable effort to inform myself as
to how Geary was liked during his stay in
Kansas, and find that while he made him
eelf obnoxiousHo every old pro-slavery dem
agogue and his partisans, he won the confi
dence of every Union man, Republican or
Democrat. If the people of Kansas had
the verdict to render on the 2d Tuesday of
October next, Clymer would be willing to
join hi3 friends in Mexico."
European War.
The intelligence from Europe goes far to
etrengthen the opinion that war is inevitable.
In Austria, Prussia and Italy over one mil
lion of soldiers are ready to "cry havoe and
let slip the dogs of war," on the word of
command. Throughout Germany, general
ly, the various powers are putting their
available military force upon a war footing.
If there be war, it will chiefly be between
Prussia and Austria. There is little doubt
that a secret understanding exists between
Prussia and Italy, out of which may come
the restoration of Venetia to the Italian
Kingdom. France is prepared for an arm
ed neutrality or for such participation in the
war as nt ay enable him to round off her ter
ritory by the addition of the Rhine Prov
inces. England is inactive "peace at all
risks" btiing her rule of inaction.
The Gallant Dead.
From a table showing the number of Eol
diers who were killed in action or died from
disease cr wounds while in service, we give
the follow aggregates ;
Killed or died of wounds, 96,089
Died of Jioease, 194,331
Total, 289,420
The a5gregato number of men furnished
under all calls reduced to the three years'
standard was 2,154,311 of which Pennsyl
vania furnished 267,558. The total number
of deaths of Pennsylvania soldiers was
21,374. These figures comprise only officers
and men who died in the service, and not
the tens of thousands who were discharged
for disability, from the effeefcof which they
subsequently died in private life.
On the 13th of June the corner stone ot
an imposing monument will be erected ever
the grave of Stephen A. Douglas. Gov
ernor Oglesby, of Illinois, has been select
ed as the orator of the occasion, and a3 few
men in our country are better able-to deliver
an address worth of the occasion, the vir
tuous and eminent public services of the il
lustrious dead will be eloquently commem
orated. The loss by the destruction of the Acad
emy of Music and several contigious prop
rties, together w'uh the Lutheran church
in Fifteenth street, New York, by fire on
Tuesday morning May 23d, is estimated at
one million of dollars. Some of the parties
Buffering los were inadequately insured,
others were fully secured by insurance.
The question of the Constitutionality ot
the law disfranchising deserters was argued
before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on
May 23d Attorney General Mereadith ap
. pearing for the Commonwealth. Th deci
sion of the Court has not yet been rendered.
A despatch from Fortress Monroe says that
Gen. Miles had received instructions to
give Jeff. Davis, on his parole, the freedom
of the fort, he retiring to his own room in !
Carroll Hall at night.
The Democratic State Convention which
met at ' Columbus, Ohio, on May 21th,
adopted a series of resolutions in which they
promise active support to the President.
It is reported from Washington that, by
consent of all parties, the trial of Jeff. Davis
k jirill be postponed until autumn. -"

Gen. Geary in History.
We have before us, says the Reading
Journal, the second and recently published
volume of "The Great Rebellion, a History
of the Civil War in the United States," by
J. T. Headley, the well-known author of
"Napoleon and his Marshals," and Wash
ington and his Generals." From many ex
pressions to-be found in this book, we judge
the writer to be a Democrat, somewhat, but
slightly, inclined to Copperheadi.sm. and
opposed to the "Radicals," but in the main
patriotic in his sentiments. Happening to
light upon a couple of passages of this vol
ume, relating to Gen. John W. Geary, now
the Union candidate for Governor of Penn
sylvania, we concluded to publish them for
the benefit of such of our readers as have
not seen the book.
In the author's account of the battle of
Wauhatchie, near Chattanooga, he says, on
page 201 :
"All this time heavy and incessant volleys
of musketry arose from the spot where
Geary was struggling against overwhelming
numbers. Ihe fighting here was desperate,
and several times he was nearly overborne ;
but with that tenacity which has always dis
tinguished him, he still clung to his position,
and at length hurled the enemy back, com
pelling him to take refuge on Lookout
mountain. The allev was now ours.
Geary gained newhonors in this hard fought
battle ; but they were dearly won, for his
son, a Captain, was killed.
And on page 264, when describing the
battle of Lookout Mountain, the writer says
aeain :
"At this juncture, the scene became one
ot most exciting interest. Ihe thick foe,
which had heretofore rested in dense folds
upon the sides of ihe mountain, concealing
the combatants from view, suddenly lilted
to the summit of the lofty ridge, revealing
to the anxious gaze of thousands in the val
leys and on the plains below, a scene such
as is witnessed but once in a century. Gen.
Geary's columns, flushed with victory, grap
pled with the foe upon the rockv ledees.
and drove him back with slaughter from his
works. While the result was uncertain,
the attention was breathless and painful ;
but when victory perched upon our stand
ards, shout upon shout rent the air. The
whole army, with one accord, broke out into
joyous acclamations. Men were frantic
with joy, and even Gen. Thomas himself,
who seldom exhibits his emotions, said in
voluntarily, "I did not think it possible for
men to accomplish so much."
So much, for the present, as to the writ
ten history of Gen. Geary.
And while all this glorious struggle was
'on, where was Mr. Heister Clymer? On
this or any other battle-field risking his life
in the service of his country? Not at all.
But, some one may say, perhaps he was,
while at home, sustaining the National Ad
ministration in its efforts to crush the re
bellion which was threatening the life of the
Nation. Perhaps he was endeavoring to
reconcile the people to the heavy but neces
sary burdens which the war imposed upon
them. Perhaps he was cheering on new re
cruits who might be marching forward to
fill up the ranks of our diminished armies ;
doing all he could to promote the comfort
of the Soldiers and making the service as
pleasant and honorable as possible. Had
he been engaged in any of these praise
worthy objects, he should have due honor
for his conduct ; even if it did not suit him
to risk his comfort and life on the field of
battle. But his neighbors and acquaintan
ces know that he "cared for none of these
things." On the contrary, he acted with
the faction that was doing all in its power
to embarrass the Government in its efforts
to raise recruits and pay them ; the faction
that was endeavoring to promote discontent
and sedition in the loyal States, and to take
from Soldiers in the field the privilege of
voting ; in short, doing all politically that
was calculated to please Vallandingham and
other traitors in the North and rebels in the
South.
Geary Clymer. What a contrast! And
yet the Copperheads pretend to think that
the latter has some chance of an election.
We think that Geary's record in the war,
and Clymer' s record in the Senate and else
where, must be blotted from the pages of
history before any such disaster can occur.
The Lumber Business. The Star pub
lished at Wrightsville, opposite Columbia,
on the Susquehanna, states there has not
been as much lumber floated down the river
this Spring as in former years, and that the
article is scarce. The Star says: "Tim
ber has been selling along at from 15 to 25
cents per cubic foot, as in quality and length.
This is the price for it in the raft, in the
water. When sawed into mill stuff, it com
mands at our mills from $32,50 to $60 per
thousand feet for white pine and oak ; the
highest figure being for the latter. Hem
lock sells at $25,00 a thousand at the mills.
Maxamilian has a fit of retrenchment on
him. t He has given orders to reduce the
expenses of his household, and has at the
same time voluntarily cut down his personal
expenses to halt a million ot dollars. As
the salary of the President of the United
States is only $25,000, payable in green
backs at that, the severe economy of the
Mexican Emperor does not strike us with
astonishment.
A man by the name of Parker was arrest
ed at Titusville, last week, on suspicion of
being connected with the robbery and death
of a prpminent citizen. Parker, after his
arrest, was taken into the presence of the
dying man, who immediately identified.him
as one of the desperadoes who brutally as
saulted and robbed him of a small amount
of money.
A Pittsburgher, who has in his posses
sion the cork leg captured from Santa Anna
in the Mexican war, U said to have decided
to return it to the old eoldier.
Most Important! Suppose you were
to die to-morrow, would you leave your
family, or those dependent on you, provid
ed for? Are your circumstances such that
you can cairuiy iook ueaxu m lin
ing conscious that you have done your duty
to those you leave behind i lhat you have
not left them dependent on the charities of
the world ? Have you obeyed the injunction
of the Apostle "If a man provide not for
his own, and especially for those of his own
house, he hath denied the faith, and is
worse than an infidel?" Is it not your du
ty as a man, to see that your exertions are
not terminated by death, before you have
provided for those who have depend on you
during life. How then are you to provide
for them ? Life Insurance gives you the
only chance. By it you can accumulate in
one hour after your first premium is paid,
what it would take many yeare of hard toil
to lay up for them in any other way. There
fore, you are told to insure your life, and
feel that joucan die without a feeling of
anxiety as to the fate of those you leave be
hind. And no.t only do you rid yourself of
all anxbty on that score when you are mo
mentarily expecting to die, but during your
daily life you feel the happy consciousness
that you have done your duty. 1 ou have
proviiod for those of your own house," and
all anxiety for their future welfare is at rest

diately. The "Nigger." The copperheads still
adhere to the "nigger" as the most impor
tant plank in the platform of their party.
They have g t up a card tor electioneering
purposes in Alt Berks which is sufficient to
disgust every intelligent man with a party
so sunken as to resort to such measures to
promote its cause. The Clymer platform is
represented on the card by a white man,
and the Geary platform with the likeness of
a negro. The Lebanon Courier suggests
that it would be a more striking representa
tion of the principles of the two partiei, by
dressing Clymer, whose votes and sympa
thies have always been with the rebels, in
a. suit of Confederate grey, and placing in
his hand the rebel colors with the ''.stars
and bars," while Geary would wear his old
9tiit of blue, -and float the glorious old flag
of the free, which he bore triumphantly
n gainst the enemies of liberty in so many
deadly conflicts. This picture would convey
volumes of truth at sight, and we would re
commend that the Copperheads embody it
in their next edition of electioneering pic
tures. Congressional.
Mr. Row. As the time is rapidly ap
proaching when a candidate for Congress is
to be nominated,, permit me, at the urgent
solicitation of many Republicans in all parts
of Clearfield county, through your columns,
to urge the re-nomination of Hon. G. W.
Scofield, our present worthy and efficient
representative. Mr. Seofield has represen
ted his constituents fairly and faithfully, at
tended to all the personal wants of members
of all parties, and, although he supported
the Congressional plan of reconstruction,
has made no personal assault upon the Pres
ident, and hence stands in a position likely
to unite all parties in his support. I trust
these suggestions will be favorably received
throughout the entire district, and that Mr.
Scofield will be re-nominated and re-elected
to Congress by an overwhelming majority.
Yours respectfully, Union.
