CLEARFIELD, PA., OCTOBER 17, 18C6.
. What has been Decided.
The political contest that has just closed,
vta one of more than ordinary interest, ow
ioc to the great and important issues in
Tolred in the result. Those fundamental
principles which underlie and are essential
. to Republican Government, were menaced
in a manner never before witnessed in our
history. The acting President of the Uni
ted States, co-operating with the managers
of the Democratic party, attempted to
bring the Legislative branch of the Gov
ernment into contempt and ridicule de
nouncing it as a central directory, a faction,
part of a Congress, a body hanging on the
verge of the Government, an unconstitu
tional and usurping body that had no right
to pass laws, or submit a' proposed consti
tutional amendment to the whole country
the obvious purpose being to shake the con
fidence of the people in the law-making
power, with the ulterior object of turning
the control of the Government into the
hands of the old slave aristocrats, who man
ifestly desire to substitute for it an oligar
chy, or modified monarchial form of gov
ernment. When the people found that the
idea was not the mere vagary of a vain
mind, dazzled by unexpected elevation to
power, but that an organized party, whose
previous record on the score of loyalty was
' extremely problematical, took open ground
in its favor, applauding the President's
coarse and threatening harangues, the ao
prehensions of the people were aroused to
an intensity equaled only at the outbreak of
the Rebellion, and the resolution was form
ed, earnest and solemn as a religious vow,
that the menacing assumption should be
rebuked, and it has been done in a manner
that should convince Mr. Johnson, if he has
any sensibilities in common with human na
ture, that the masses bolieve him wrong and
believe Congress right that the rebels shall
not be restored to participation in the legis
lation of the land until they have "brought
forth fruits meet for repentance." and giv
en such guarantees as will prevent a repeti
tion of the great crime of which they were
wilfully guilty. This is the plain, the pal
pable issue that was determined at the ballot-box
on the second Tuesday of October
a decision that, we firmly believe, will in
sure in good time a just, safe and permanent
reorganization of the Union, in full conso
nance with the principles of civil liberty and
popular government.
A Hoax on the President.
The Philadelphia Ledger, of Oct. 10th,
contained a dispatch, in which it was repre
sented that the Presideut had sent to the
Attorney General a communication, asking
whether the present Congress, composed cf
members of the Northern States alone, was
such' a Congress as the Constitution requires,
or whether it was an illegal and unconstitu
' tional body ; and whether he wluld be jus
tified in sending his next annual message to
an illegal and unconstitutioeal assemblage,
preten Jmg to be the Congress of the Uni
ted States. The Ledger has heretofore
been regarded as the best of authority, not
being given to the circulation of sensational
stories, and hence the country was startled
. by this alleged revolutionary scheme of Pres
ident J nhnson, the effect being visible by a
heavy advance in the premium on gold and
stagnation in the sale of government secu
rities. It turns out, however, that the
whole affair is a hoax, gotten up by some
gold gamblers, who doubtless made a good
thing out of the sudden rise in the price of
that artiela. The President and Attorney
General, as soon as it came to their knowl
, edge, both pronounced the report false. Be
this as it may, it has served to let Mr. John
, son know that the country generally regard
ed him as capable of a revolutionary at
tempt, and the comments it has elicited has
revealed to him what would be the conse-
quences, particularly to himself, were he to
make it. In this, though it was a startling
and injurious report, it may have answered
a good purpose. -

' Reilly was found dead at the railroad bridge
near Petty's mill, in the'vicinity of WUkes

, is supposed he fell frcm the bridge and re
tired injuries which caused his death.
Making Democratic Voters.
The Harrisburg Telegraph, of Oct 10th.,
gives the names of fifty-eight foreigners,
who were naturalized by Judge Fisher of
York county, some of whom the Telegraph
says it has "the positive evidence to prove
filed their first application in August last,"
and adds that it is informed this fact was
brought' to the attention of Judge Fisher,
but that he treated the information with
contempt. The men named all voted in
Harrisburg, and added that much strength
to the Democracy in that city. A later issue
of the same r aper states that J. Wesley
Awl and R. Updegrove, election officers of
the Fourth Ward, Harrisburg, have been
arrested and bound over to appear before
the next Court of Quarter Sessions, for re
ceiving votes on false naturalization papers,
and cites the case of one Patrick M'Donald,
in which it had been shown to the election
board that his first application had been
filed on the 5th day of June, 1S66, in the
Prothonotary's office of Dauphin county,
and that on the 6th of October, Judge Fish
er, or his Court, at York, granted this man
his second naper. contrary to the express
provisions of the law. It is believed that
in Philadelphia an immense number of per
sons voted, on forged or false naturalization
papers, the Copperhead ticket; and, the
Press says, it is computed that not less than
ticenty-Jice hundred men were "construc
tively" employed in the navy yard proceed
ing the recent election, and that of this vast
army all were forced to vote, if not against
their consciences, certainly against their
country, on the 9th instant. Had it not
been for frauds of this kind, there is no
computing how large the Republican ma
jority would have been in Pennsylvania.
Senator Cowan.
lhe outraged and betrayed people of
Pennsylvania," says the Pittsburg Commer
cial, "have laid a heavy hand on this man.
Scarcely i3 there a parallel to his case in our
political history. Elected by a party that
gave him their confidence, he made haste
to betray them and their principles. In
fatuated with the idea of his own conse
quence and clothed with the patronage of
the Executive, he had the temerity to go be
fore the people. The result is, he has been
condemned as scarcely another ever, was.
In the State in his District at his home
by those on whom, if anybody, he should
have relied, and not been disappointed, to
sustain him by every body but those who
profited or hoped to profit by his treason,
he has been scorned, cast off, condemned,
before all the world. It will long stand as
proof of the spirit and virtue of the pepple
of Pennsylvania that they did this. It will
stand as a perpetual warning to public men,
and be an illustration of the great truth,

"Passing Away."
Wallace the flower of Democracy the
"sweet William" of the Copperhead flora
has been wilted, if not killed outright, by
the bracing air of liberty and justice that
has been sweeping, with purifying effect,
through the land this fall. Of political hot
house growth, he was illy adapted for a
place on the "outer wall" of the Capper
Johnson citadel, and hence has been pros
trated, perhaps never more to "raise his
drooping head.'' Having made a signal
failure as Chairman of the Democratic State
Committee, his once fond admirers will
now feel disposed to cast him aside with in
effable disdain. Poor Billy ! We pity him,
for he worked like a Trojan in the bad cause
of a dying party, and we really think his
friends should not ungratefully charge him
with the fatal disaster into which they have
been plunged by their joint folly and per
sistent opposition to right, justice and free
dom. The New Orleans Frauds.
On our outside we give an account of cer
tain frauds alleged to have been perpetrated
upon the Government by a Mr. Loewen
thaL '
From Mr. L.'s own statement it would
appear that he has been badly treated by
the wholesale charges made against him by
the press. Mr. Locwenthal took with him
from Washington city during the latter part
of August, checks to the amount of $46,000.
By inquiry at the Pay Department this
statement is corroborated by the facts as
they are known there, $46,000 being all for
which checks have been issued for the pay
ment of negro bounties through him. The
greater part of these checks were sent to
Philadelphia and Fortress Monroe, where
the claimants reside. The remainder Mr.
L. took with him to New Orleans, under
instructions from the department, and de
livered therein,with the exception of $5,000
or $6,000, to the respective claimants, part
ly at his own office and partly at the office of
tbe rreedmens Uureau. I'ertihcates to
this effect can be produced. The $5,000 or
$6,000 above mentioned he voluntarily turn
ed over to the Provost Marshal of the Gulf,
Capt. Wm. H. Sterling, U.S.RegularArmy.
Much of Mr. Loewenthal's statement is con
firmed, and a grave doubt is thrown over all
the charges against him by the fact of the
nl.anv. CDeflts thrown around the payment
of this class of claims by the Pay Depart
ment, in tne nrst place every note is in
dorsed across its face with the words: 'Pay
l??nL. ??lord bounty, under act of July
p, ISb6. A list of these checks is regu
larly sent to the Assistant Treasurer, at
New York, and in no case can & check be
paid to any but the real claimant after iden
tification before the officers of the bank or
sub-treasury paying them, by two. responsi
ble witnesses. Consequently, those frauds
charged upon Mr. Loewenthal are very im
probable. The Republicans have carried Nebraska.
PEETCrSYLVAIflA ITEMS.
Mercer County. The Greensville Ar
gus says : A man named McNeltie, a tail
or in the emulov of Nathan Block, was
found in a dying condition, on Friday even
ine. in front of the clothing store of the lat
ter named centleman. About 10 o'clock.
P. M., JLeltie was sittting on the curb
stone, near the store, when a cr3' was raised
by some of the women who occupy the
rooms above, that man was near the stair
way drunk. Upon approaching him he was
found to be in an insensible condition, and
on being brought to the light, soon expired,
Deceased had been complaining of heart
disease through the day. William Buck,
Esq., held an inquest upon the body and de
cided that deceased had came to his death
from disease of the heart. McNeltie was a
Canadian by birth, and had been in the em
ploy of Nathan Block about six weeks. . .
The body of a man named John Partridge.
from Northampton, England, was found
drowned in Woltcreek, a short distance be
low incent s Mill, on Oct. 7th. Among
his papers were found drafts to a considera
ble amount, and a Land Office certificate for
eighty acres of land in Iowa, also an Odd
Fellows' certificate of membership, besides
business letters and other documents. His
age waa about thirty-live.
J uniata County. The MifHintown Sett'
tiiiel says: Mr. Joseph Kurtz, of East Sn.
lem, met with an accident on Tuesday, Oct.
2d, which resulted in death on the follow
ing Monday. . He and a little daughter were
out riding in a spring wagon, and while de
scending a hill the horse became frightened
ana ran on. j.ne wagon struck a stump
and Mr. Kurtz and hisdaughter were throwu
out. lhe child was uninjured, but Mr.
Kurtz had one of his legs broken in two
places, and was otherwise bad v iniured
He lingered until Monday evening when he
died. He was one of our most estimable
citizens, and his death has cast a gloom over
our enure community.
Cambria County. Michael Ilasson, a
weu-suuwn politician oi JDensburg, and a
iuemoer or the legislature in 1847, died on
the 9th Oct., aeed about 70 vears. . . On
the 30th of October, Mr. John Walters, of
r :ii- . . i ' .
uiicuusvine, went, into nis snop, as usual,
to work, eating an apple. In one half hour
afterwards he was discovered by his wife,
dead. It would seem that he seated him
self on his work bench to finish eating an
apple, and died in that position. His age
was about 55 years. The Coroner held an
inquest on the body, and found that he died
of disease of the heart
Blair County. An old citizen of Sharps
burg, named Thomas Ritz,was found drown
ed Wednesday night, 10th inst, in Poplar
Run, in six inches of water. . . . The pa
per mills of Messrs. Eby, Morrison & Co.,
at Spang's Mill, were entirely destroyed by
fire on Tuesday night. Oct. 9th. Loss esti
mated at $50,000. The proprietors of this
establishment appear to be unfortunate,
borne three months since their engines blew
up, and they were just getting rightly un
der way when the fire occurred.
Franklin County. A bov nam,i
Rhodes, of Clarksville (adjoining Chani
bersburg.) died on Friday evening last.from
the effects of eating acorns on the Sunday
previous.
Tbe Latest Fashions. Since the in
vention and successful introduction of the
Celebrated Duplex Elliptic or double
Spring Hoop Skirt by Mr. J. W. Bradley
of New York, the ladies throughout the
country have given up the idea of discard
ing the fashion of wearing hoop skirts on
account of the peculiar and graceful man
ner in which the Duplex Skirts adapt them
selves to every exigency and emergency.
So generally acceptable have these Skirts
become that the ladies regard them as a
special favorite in view of the superior flexi
bility, lightness and durability combined in
their manufacture. They also consider
them a far more economical and comforta
ble Hoop Skirt that ever has or can be
made for all crowded assemblages, for the
pjomenade or house dress. Any lady after
wearing one of these Skirts will never after
wards willingly dispense with their use.
Long experience in the manufacture of Hoop
Skirts has proven to the proprietors of this
invention, that single-springs will always
retain that stiff, unyielding and bungling
style which has ever characterized them,
whereas the double spring hoop or the Du
plex Elliptic, will be found free from these
objections. Notwithstanding the ability of
the manufactures, Messrs. Wests', Bradley
k Cary, to turn out over six thousand Skirts
per day from their large manufactories in
New York, they feel obliged to request all
merchants ordering the Duplex Elliptic
Skirts, to send their orders a few days be
fore they are wanted, if possible, as they are
always most constantly oversold some days
ahead. . 1 ."
"Negro Suffrage."
The only issue made by the Democratic
leaders was the right of negroes to vote, and
the right of the President to rule as best
pleased his pleasure, without regard ta the
wishes or judgments of those representing
the other branch of the Government. Wal
lace, Chairman of the Copperhead State
Central Committee, rung his appeals upon
the single idea of negro. Every Copperhead
organ in tbe Commonwealth teemed only
with charges of miscegenation, negro equali
ty, negroes on the judge's bench, negroes in
the jury box, negroes everywhere, until the
poor white dupes who echo the sophistries of
the more cunning copperheads, actually be
lieved that the African was about to thrust a
side, in the race of progress, the entire race
of Anglo-Saxons. Taking the copperhead ar
gument before the election, accepting now as
true what every copperhead swore would be
the effect of Geary s election, we are bound
to believe that ''negro suffrage has been en
dorsed that universal suffrage has been ap
proved and upheld by the majesty of Penn
sylvania's majority for John W. Geary. We
give our copperhead friends joy on the result
of an issue which they exclusively made,
and having tested the temper of public feel
ing on the subject, we hope the Cops will
now concur in the superior intelligence of
the people of Pennsylvania. Telegraph.
