CLEARFIELD, PA., JUNE 6, 1866,
UNION REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET.
roR goykrxor:
Maj. Gen. JOHK W. GEAEY, of dumb. Co.
Winfield Scott.
This illustrious soldier died Tuesday fore
noon, May 29th, at West Point, full of
years and full of honors. lie was born at
Petersburg, Va., June 13, 1786; studied
law, and followed the profession for a few
years. In 1808 was made a Captain in the
army. In the war of 1812-15 he greatly
distinguished himself, and rose to the rank
of Major General. He was offered and de
clined the post of Secretary of War. In
1832, he led a campaign against the Sacs
and Fox Indians. In 1835 he was engaged
in the Seminole war, which dragged along
for several years. In 1837 he rendered im
portant services on the northern frontier,
during the Canadian outbreak. In 1839
he acted as Pacificator on the northeastern
Boundary Question. In 1841 he became
Commander-in-Chief of the army on the
death of Gen. Macomb. In 1846-48 he
gained additional lustre by the conquest of
Mexico. In 1852 he was the Whig candi
date for the Presidency, but was unsuccess
ful!. In 1855 the Brevet rank of Lieuten
ant General was revived in his favor. In
1859 he went to Oregon and settled the
question of boundary with the British au
thorities. In 1861 he threw the weight of
his great name on the side of the Union,
and personally directed the military arrange
ments in connection with the first inaugura
tion of Mr. Lincoln as President He re
mained the military adviser of the new ad
ministration till Nov. 1, 1861, when he re
tired from active service. Few men have
had the ability or the opportunity to per
form so many great services for his nation.
Honored while living, his memory will, be
held in lasting remembrance by his countrymen.
The Fenian Movement.
It seems that the Fenians have at last
succeeded in getting up a genuine excite
ment. Purine the past week, they were
concentrating their forces along the border,
and finally on Thursday a force crossed into
Canada from Black Rock, which now forms
a part of the city of Buffalo, New York, oc
cupied the villages of Waterloo and Fort
Erie, cut the telepraph lines, tore up the
track ot the Grand Trunk Railway, and in
dulged in general jubilation It is reported
that subsequently a collision took place be
tween Fenian and British troops near a
town called Ridgway. No little excitement
has grown out of all this, but that the affair
will amount to anything more than a "big
scare" for John Bull, and the killing of a
few "wild Irishmen," is not thought proba
ble by well informed journalists.
In the fight at Ridgway, or the Battle of
Limestone Ridge as it is called, about one
thousand Fenians and about fourteen hun
dred English volunteers were engaged. The
Fenians are reported to have fought brave
ly. The loss on their bide was six killed
and fifteen wounded ; on the part of the
Government troops six killed and twenty
five or thirty wounded.
The U. S. revenue cutter, Michigan, it is
stated, captured 700 Fenians whilst in the
act of crossing into Canada, and General
Meade has adopted measures to prevent re
inforcements going over.
Oar Next Congressman.
The Brookville Republican, ia out in favor
of the re-nomination of Hon. Glenni W
oco field, our present able and efficient
Representative in Congress. A correspon
dent of the Warren Mail, referring to the
same subject says, that "From all counties
J udge Scofield gets the most urgent appeals
not to decline a re-nomination" that these
appeals having changed his purpose to re
tire at the end of this session, lie will be a
candidate For re-nounnation and thinks the
"best interests of the District will be sub
served by keeping him in Congress where
the last struggle of the Rebel power is to be
made." So far as Clearfield county is con
cerned, we can safely say that Judge Sco
field' s course has proved generally satisfac
tory to the party which elected him, and
we believe that it is the undivided wish of
the Republicans of this portion of the Dis
trict that he shall again be their candidate
this fall.
West yiRQisiA. The recent rote in
- : West Virginia on the Constitutional Amend-
ment denying tk right of suffrage to Rebels'
. indicates ajn-jority of about 1 0,000 in favor

The Cambria county Republican conven
tion met at Ebensburg on the 2Sth of May
and nominated D. J. Morrell for Congress
by a majority of 10 over A. A. Barker.
Geary and the Mexican War.
An article headed "John W, Geary and
the Soldiers of the Mexican War," is go
ing the rounds of the Copperhead papers. It
is full of bombast and fury, and purports to
be, and probably is, from the "Genius of
Liberty," an obscure Copperhead sheet
published in Fayette county. The Clear
field Republican copied this m very precious
Copperhead document, and interspersed it
profusely with large capital letters, le$t the
readers of that paper should fail to perceive
the import of this base and slanderous on
slaught on a brave and gallant Union officer.
The purport of the article is that in 1S47
Gen. Geary volunteered his services for the
Mexican War ; that he was chosen Lieut
Colonel of the 2d Penn'a., Regiment, and
that upon the death of bis Colonel in the
city of Mexico while our troops occupied
that Capital, Lieut Colonel Geary was
elected to the Colonelcy by merely a plurali
ty vote, against the wishes and aspirations
ot a certain Co. H. from Fayette county at
tached to that Regiment, whose candidate
defeated, and as defeated candidates
was
often do, in both military and civil contests,
charged fraud and deception upon his suc
cessful competitor. This is the sum and
substance of the article. The fact that such
stuff as this is published over the State
goes to show that the Copperheads are very
hard put to for material against Gen. Geary
that his character as a military man and
civilian, is without spot or blemish.
The Soldiers for Geary.
The soldiers of Lancaster county met in
County Convention in the Court House in
Lancaster city, on Saturday, May 18th, and
among other resolutions passed the follow
ing :
"Resolved, That in the nomination by the
Union party of Maj. Gen. John W. Geary,
for Governor of Pennsylvania, we see evin
ced the determination of loyal people to re
cognize the claims of those who have brought
the late terrible war to a' successful issue,
and being one of us, and having proved
himself not only a brave and prudent officer
and gallant soldier, but also possessed of
those administrative qualities required in a
ruler, and better still, foremost among the
supporters of those principles for which we
fought for four years, we pledge to him our
hearty and enthusiastio upport
Resolved, That we pledge our votes to the
party that gave us the right to vote in the
field ; and as one of the means of develop
ing our tull strength, we urge the immediate
formation of Geary Clubs throughout the
country."
The meeting was large and enthusiastic,
and The resolutions were passed by a unani
mous vote. Both the above resolutions are
good but the last one is decidedly to the
point, and expresses, without doubt, the
views of the great body of soldiers through
out the State.
At THEia oli Tricks. When Gov,
Curtin first ran for Governor, 1860, the
Democrats got up a story that he shot
poor man s dog, and they insisted that he
was a great tyrant and purse proud aristo
crat. Similar stories, suited to the times.
are now going the rounds of the Copper
head papers in regard to Gen. Geary. One
appears in the Gettysburg Compiler, semi
Rebel, in which it is stated that Gen. G,
once knocked down an intoxicated private
with his fist for neglecting properly to salute
him. Another story is that he refused to
eat at a hotel table because a private sol
was sitting at one ena ot it Inese are
about equal to the Curtin dog story and
quite as destitute of truth. Copperhead
newspapers place a very low estimate on the
intelligence of their readers when they print
such Etuff.
Finances in England. A great finan
cial crash has just occured in England. A
number of Banking and mercantile firms
have gone by the board, involving a loss of
some ten millions pounds sterling. Among
the nouses that have gone under is that of
Sir Morton Peto & Co., the great Railroad
King, who recently visited this country.
Ihis firm failed for four millions sterling,
or twenty millions of dollars, though their
assets are said to be five millions pounds
sterling. The Bank of England had raised
the discount from 7 to 10 per cent These
failures involve heavy losses in all parts of
the United Kingdom, and they will no
doubt be felt in the United States. The
panic in great Britain has not been paral
lelled for many years.
Perc On May d, a Spanish fleet com
menced the bombardment of Callao, Peru.
Alter tour hours bombardment, the Span
iards withdrew several of their best vessels
having been disabled, and their loss in kill
ed and wounded numbering between 200
and 300. The Peruvians lost about 100 in
killed and wounded. The signal failure of
the Spaniard in their attack upon Callao
has electrified public opinion in the South
American Republics, and already we hear
of preparations for defence against similar
attacks, by the building of fortification all
along the coast
The Odd Fellows of Berks and adjoining

Political.
The President and various members of
his Cabinet were serenaded on Wednesday
night by the National Union Club. There
were several thousand persons in attendance,
but very little enthusiasm was manifested.
The President, contrary to his custom, had
but little to say. Mr. seward was not at
home, and the compliment was acknowledg
ed by his son, F. W. Seward. Secretary
Wells made a paragraphic speech in which
he fully endorsed the Johnsonian policy.
Secretary McCullough and Postmaster Gen
eral Dennison spoke at length, and also sus
tained the President The greatest anxiety,
however, was to hear Secretary Stanton,
because there has been such a diversity of
opinion in regard to his views on the recent
Constitutional amendment as it passed the
House. He spoke at length, giving his
views freely, and refusing his assent to the
proposed amendment. Speaking of the 3d
section of the proposed ameudment, which
disfranchises all whojparticipated in the late
rebellion, he said :
It is urged by the advocates of this plan
that this third section is the vital one, with
out which the others are of no value. Its
exclusive action will no doubt commend it
to the feelings of many as a jut and wise
provision. But I am unable so to rejrard
it, because for four years it binds Congress
to exclude from voting for Representatives
or Presidential electors all persons who vol
untanly adhered to the late insurrection.
giving it aid and comfort. No matter what
may be the condition of the country, nor
what proofs of present and future loyalty
may be Riven, an absolute bar is to be erec
ted for four years against a large class of
persons, onange or circumstances ana con
dition often works rapid change in party
and political sentiments, and nowhere with
more marked result than in the South. It
is believed that elements of change are now
at work there stimulating on one side to
loyalty, aud on the other tending to continu
ed hostile reeling. In my juaenient, every
proper incitement to Union should be loster
ed and cherished, aud for Congress to limit
its own power by constitutional amendment
lor the period or lour years might be deplor
able in its results. To those who differ I
accord the same honesty, and perhaps great
er wisdom than I can claim for myself. As
the proposed plan now stands, I am unable
to perceive the necessity, justice or wisdom
ot the measure, uut having no place nor
voice in the body before which the measure
is pending, 1 disclaim any purpose to inter
fere beyond the expression of my own opin
ion. Having thus declared my views, as
they have heretofore been declared to those
who had a right to know them, on the ma
tenai questions that nave lately arisen or
are now pending, I trust that your purpose
on this occasion is answered ; and 1 shall be
glad if their expression may have any bene
iicial influence in questions, the right dis
position whereof is a matter of solicitude to
every patriotic man, ana is deeply impor
tant to tne peace ana tranquility ot the coun

of all the coordinate branches of the Govern

which is due from every loyal citizen, they

to my best judgment, the support which is
required by that Constitution which, after
unexampled conflict, has been upheld and
sanctified by divine favor and through the
sacrifice of blood aad treasure.

Destitution in Alabama.
Gov. Parsons, of Alabama, has addressed
a letter to General Howard, urging the ne
cessity of the Bureau increasing its distribu
tions of rations. By a recent census of that
btate 13 ot 52 counties return 52,921 desti
cute persons, and he averages the starving
poor at o4,ouu. Uunng the war Alabama
lost 40,000 men, over one-half heads of
families, and there are 60,000 white widows
and orphans. They could raise no crop last
year on account ol the presence ot the ar
mies, and the .Legislature at its recent ses
sion authorized the issuing of State bonds
for the purpose of procuring food, but they
have failed to make them negotiable, and
the Uovernor purposes coming north to nut
them on the market for provisions. The
citizens who are able contribute freely, and
the mortgaging of farms and crops, to raise
food, is almost universal. Feeble women
and decrepit old men walk miles to obtain
rations, and it is quite customary to meet
frantic mothers on the roadside crying, with
their starving children. There are 100,000
destitute whites and blacks, and to the 20.
000 to which rations were issued daily durin"
Maj', he urges that the number be increased
tor June 5,000. Iheir wheat and potato
crop, gathered in daily, will give great re
lief; and, it is believed, the number of ra
tions, after August, can be materially reduced.
