liaftsman's otirnal. cm... . J. lOW, lITO AJD PBOPBISTOR. CLEARFIELD, PA., NOV. 21, 1866. 1 Strikiag out on a New Line. The Chicago. Timet is well known as one of the most influential and ultra Copperhead organs in the land. Its sympathy with the Rebels wa-s as undisguised, as its opposition to the emancipation policy was unmeasured and persistent; indeed,no paper in the li nked States baa been more hostile, in a gen eral sense, to the colored race, nor to the le gislation that became necessary by reason of the changed relations in which the results of the war has placed the slave population to the General Government. Yet, etrange to spy, the Time has struck out boldly on a new line, and in its issue of Nov. 2th ad vocates the adoption of uegro suffrage, lim ited by intelligence, "as is now the rule in Massachusetts." It insists that "the quick est way to get the nogro question out of the way wto concede the suffrage, making issue only on the degree to which it shall be con ceded." It does not admit that the course heretofore pursued by the Democracy was wrong, nor that the one it now advocates is right, just and beneficent. It simply insists that as it has been "beaten on a great na tional issue," the only hope of restoring vi tality to its party is "to abandon that issue" and to adopt one in its stead that it admits is "inevitable." Whilst there are no indications of sincere repentance on the part of the Times ex pediency being alone observable in its arti cleit deserves credit for its discernment and for the independent lead it has taken in the right direction. To what extent its views will be adopted by the Democracy, we do not undertake to predict. But as the Boston Post, also an organ of that party, has for some time maintained this doctrine, it is not improbable that others will soon be found expressing similar opinions. Besides th. we it stated that leading Southern men, who have visited Washington since the elections, are satisfied that restoration is impossible without some concession to the dominant loyal sentiment of the country, and as their States, prompted by the posi tion of the President, have been so strongly committed against the Constitutional A mendmcnt as to preclude its adoption by them in any contingency, there is no alter native for them but to admit negroes to .qualified participation in the elective fran chise, preferring that to the disqualification which the ratification of the amendment . Would inflict upon the leaders of the Re bellion. If the people of the South find themselves compelled to move in this direc tion, and the leaders of the Democratic par ty feel convinced that they can thus have n reasonable chance of getting back into ow er, the latter will scarcely hesitate to follow the suggestions of- the Time. In the event of the Democratic party be coming Africanized. Copperhead newspa pers will doubtless be curiosities worth see ing. Their editors will no longer regale their readers with fierce diatribes against the black race, but will probably fill their columns with learned ethnological and mor al treatises on the equality and brotherhood of all men. Sambo will at once lose that pungent olr which is so offersive to refined Democratic nostrils, and will be accounted quite as fragrant as the ottar of roses. On the other hand, if the prejudices of the faithful should fail to give way, and the managers of the party cannot be satisfied that the adoption of the course proposed will once more place the control of the Govern ment in their hands, then it may te contend ed that the suggestion of the Times was made only in a "Pickwickian sense" that it was a bit of pleasantry designed to draw attention from, and soften the bitterness of .their defeat. The article of the Times will be found en tire on our outside. Attracting, as it does, no little attention in political circles everj'- where, it will be perused with more than or " dinary interest by our readers. " ' ' Since the above was put in type we see it announced that the Aatinnal Intelligencer, the organ of President Johnson at Wash ington city, in its isue of Nov. ) Oth, says "there never can be stable peace in this 'country until the colored race is made en tirely equal before the law in regard to civ "il rights. It is desirable that after long "and injurious agitation, the South should "spontaneously do this.", It is also stated tht the President is favorable to granting general amnesty for impartial suffrage, and that bo may recommend something of this natare in his annual message. ! It looks now as if this question would soon , agitate the whole country, North and South. - ' ; : - r- . . . The national debt has been reduced r t wo hundrad and fifteen -million dollars within he past fifteen months, Indian Outrages. . The Indians of the west continue trouble some, and are perpetrating most fiendish outrages. The Leavenworth Times, of the 1 5th November, contains an account of the ransom from the Kiowa tribe of a white family that had been subjected to treatment of the most inhuman character. At the time of their capture the father, James Box. was killed and scalped. Mrs. Box, a child 11 months old, and three daughters Margaret, aged 17 years, Josephine 16, and Ada 7 were carried to the camp of the Ki owa. On the way there the child fell from the arms of the mother, while the Indians were goading the worn-out animaiihat was carrying her, and was crushed to death a- mong the rocks, the mother not being allow ed to dismount and see it. The mother and two eldest daughters were subjected to un heard of cruelty and outrages by their brutal captors,whilst the youngest was most barba rously used. Being unable to understand the commands of her heartless taskmasters, she was placed upon live coals until she was nearly roasted. When rescued, she had almost forgotten her mother. The family were in captivity about ten weeks, and in that time suffered such cruelties as fiends alone could invent. They are now at Fort Leavenworth, having left Fort Dodge in charge of Lieut. Ilesselburger on the 5th of November. They will probably be sent to their home in Texas. Doctoring a Desperate Patient. The N. Y. Sun, a Copperhead sheet, thinks the Democratic party is very low, but that "a good prescription and careful nursing" may yet save it. Says the Sun : "An entirely new course of treatment, founded upon political common sense, and in keeping with the progress of the age, is what the Democratic party needs to restore it to the healthful condition which, it once enjoyed. Instead of being doctored with Slavery pills and State Rights liniment, as it has been tor years past, it must now un dergo a course of modern me lication, and swallow good large doses of Equal Rights, Fnedom, Patriotism, National Progress, and Advanced Civilization." Whilst this treatment might produce some good effects upon the condition of the par ty; and win'back many who have renounced it, the Tribune thinks it would not be calcu lated to hold those who now rally around its standard. "When I was a boy," grum bled an old fogy, "they taught us to love rum and hate niggers ; now they want us to hate rum and love niggers: for my part I greatly prefer the old discipline." And there are niany others who would prefer the same thing. The denizens of the Five Joints, Mackerelville, the Hook, and the Dead Rabbit districts the burners of negro orphan asylums and assailants of negro camp-meetings would doubtless also rather stick to the "old discipline." Come to Grief. It would seem that Mr. William A. Wal lace's State Committee, which its friends alleged "had not enough money to pay the expenses of his printer," is not the only Bogus Democratic "institution" that got into financial trouble during the late politi cal campaign, for we see it stated that the "Democratic National Executive Commit tee" is short at least $30,000, and that "re pudiation" will be resorted to as the easiest mode of getting rid of its liabilities. It appears further that all the Johnson political clubs at Washington city have likewise come to grief ; the Sheriff having levied upon the furniture of Young Men's National Union Club, the Conservative Army and Navy re mains, and the Johnson Department (Hub, for arrears of rent. Owing to this state of affairs, all sorts of hard swearing, crimina tion and recrimination, have been indulged in, and if half be true that the members of these various committees and clubs charge upon each other, they must be a precious set of tricksters indeed. There is an old saw to the effect that "when rogues fall out honest men will get their own," . but we doubt whether, in the case of thce "con servative" party operators, tle aJ age will prove cqrrect. .. . , School Sxperixtendexts' Conven tion. A Convention of the Superinten dents of the Common Schools of the State of Pennsylvania is called to meet in Harris burg on the 4th of December. Important changes in the School law will be proposed for the consideration of the Convention, providing for an iucrease of the minimum length of the annual school term ; the es tablishment of uniformity of text books in each county ; the support of "county in stitutes" by public appropriations; the abolishment of "provisional certificates;" the creation of "district supcrintendencies;" the increase of "district institutes" and the enlargement of the number of the branches of study required by law. Governor Wells, of Louisiana, it is sta ted, will demand of the military authorities in that State the arrest of numerous persons accused of murdering Union men within the past four months, including, we presume, such as took active part in the New Orleans massacre, whom the civil authorities, with bold defiance of justice, have thus far failed or refused to prosecute. This action will test Gen. Grant's order No. 44, and if it is nullified, will throw the responsibility of screening the assassins upon President John son. The Union men of Louisiana, impa tient of Rebel tyranny and a rule that elves them no protection, will petition Congress I to appoint a Provision:)! Governor. . ! End of the Baltimore Difficulty. 'Judge BartoLof the Superior Court, rendered .his decision in the Valliant and Young hapeass corpus case, on the 13th cf November. He sustains the power of Gov. Swann to remove the Commissioners of Police. He says that the order of Judge Bond, of the Criminal Court, that the par ties be hell to bail. nd in default commit ted to keep the peace against the Police Commissioners, and not to seek to exercise any of the functions of Police Commission ers until their claim to said office should be. established by the Courts, was wholly un warranted, and that the Judge of the Crimi nal Court had no authority to issue such an order. He reviewed the code in regard to Police Commissioners, and decided that it gave the Governor entire power in the mat ter; that if in his jad cement, Messrs. Woods and Hinds had been guilty of official mis conduce, the law gave him power to remove theni and appoint successors ; that at the time Messrs. Valliant and Young were arrested, thoy had been truly and lawfully appointed Police Commissioners.- and that, clothed with the commissions of the Governor, they were then truly in office, and empowered to rightfully exercise all the functions of the same in place of Woods and Hinds who had been removed, and had been officially notified of the removal. 'The action ot the Governor was fina', as much so as it those Commissioners had been removed by the Legislature ; and from his action there could be no appeal. Whilst the decision of Judge Eartol fully sustains the action of the Governor and condemns that of thn Crimi nal Court, in virtually .granting an injunc tions against Messrs. Youn? and Valliant, by the order issued, he discharged them from the custody in which they were held in virtue of the commitment. In such or der the Judge decided that it was compe tent for the Criminal Court to entertain the charge alleged against Young and Valliant of conspiracy to break the peace by forcibly taking possession of the police stations and other property, held by Messrs. Woods and Hinds. Such a charge was an indictable offense, and upon that charge they were properly held to bail. Judge Bartol said he would issue an order for the immediate discharge of Sheriff Thompson, and in the case of Messrs. Young and Valliant he dis charged them from custody under the ille gal order of Judge Bond, restraining them from seeking to exercise the functions of their office as Police Commissioner.but as to the other charge of conspiracy to break the peace, he would require them to enter their own, recognizances i,n. answpr thfi .oTiarw before the proper court. The Board of Police Commissioners have given up their offices and papers to the new Board. In a brief correspondence upon the subject, the old Board state that they firmly believe their right to hold the office, but since, the police system of. Baltimore may be impaired by longer antagonism between the two sets of Commissioners, they, have concluded to withdraw from the field. Thus ends the Baltimore embroglio. Frightful Eailroad Accident. A terrible railroad accident occurred on the 13th November on the Erie and Buffa lo Road, resulting in the death of four of the passengers, and the injury of forty-one, some seriously. The accident was caused by the gross carelessness of the foreman having charge pf a gang of hands who were repairing the track at the point where the casualty took place. The coroner's jury, in their verdict, say that two rails had been re moved on the main track about 10 or 15 minutes before the arrival of the Day Ex press from Buffalo going west, and as the train, which was running at the rate of 30 miles per hour, was not signalled by the fore man or any of his men, it' ran at full speed into the gap, with the disastrous effect sta ted above. The conductor and engineer of the train are held blameless, but the officers of the road are pronounced culpable in not employing efficient men as track-layers, and furnishing them with flags and instructions to signal trains and stop- them in time of danger. That the officers and foreman are guilty of the death of four human beings, cannot be denied, and if thre is no law un der which the officers of Rail Roads can be brought to realize their responsibility in cases of this kind, it should at once be sup plied by ' the State Legislatures. The foreman can doubtless be indicted for man slaughter. But will it be done? We shall see, perhaps. JcstSo! It is stated that President Johnson forget "to leave the Constitution and the flag" in Maryland and Delaware, which accounts for these States adhering to the Rebel cause. Per contra ; in New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and Penn sylvania, where the "humble individual" entered into the distribution business exten sively, the Union' party triumphed over whelmingly . Investigating the President's Con duct. A Washington city dispatch to the N. Y. Tribune, dated Nov. 13th, says: "It is understood that Thad. Stevens, at the opening of Congress, will move the ap pointment of a joint committee, charged with the duty of investigating the official conduct of President Johnson, and report ing what action, if any, is required by Con gress." - - There has been a heavy decline in provi sion in the eastern cities. Pennsylvania Items. Beaver County. -The county treasu rer's office was entered' by burglars a few nights since, the safe and burglar pioof blown open, and $7,000 of money carried off. Indiana County. Mr. Wni. Oakes, of Burrell township, while tarrying a scap of bees across a field, on Wednesday night, Nov. 14th, steppnd into a rut and in falling struck his chin on the box, dislocating his neck, and causing instant death. He was a single man, but leaves many friends. Delaware County. The flour mill at ChaddV Ford, belonging to Mr. Caleb Brinton.'feil on Friday, burying beneath the ruins several men, two ot.whom, named Yeasley Cooper and James Dailey, were killed, ami Lewis Kipe was severely injured. There were some 7,000 to 10.000 bushels bf wheat stored iu the mill at the time of the accident. . Westmoreland County. John Smith, of Greensburg, had his horse stolen at Der ry station on thePenn'a RaiIroad,one night last week. . . . CapL S. Patterson and II. A. Wanna maker, whilst hunting one day hist week, near Murraysville, shot an owl meas uring eight feet five inches from tip to tip of wings, and a squirrel weighing six pounds and two ounces. Clinton County. On the 6th Nov., a sad accident, through powder, occurred near the Old Tunnel. Lordy Hoats, a young son of Morgan Hoots, was sitting near the fire, when a boy named Oliver threw a quantity of powder into the fire, and young' . Honts was immediately enveloped in flames. He ran for the creek, a short distance off, but on reaching if, his clothes were nearly burnt off his person, and his skin scorched to a blis ter. He died the following day, after suffer ing the most intense agony. Lycoming County. On the 10th Nov., Miss Mary Bu.-sler, aged aboit 15 years, was horribly burned at the house of Edward Lyon, in Williamsport. She and another lady. had gone to see the furnace in the basement, when they accidentally broke a kerosene iamp in the hands of MissBussler, the oil of which was poured over her clothes, igniting them instantly. Overcome with fright, the unfortunate girl ran up stairs, nd before the flames could be smoth ered, her clothing was nearly consumed, and the flesh on her arms and body burned black. She lingered until the next day, when death relieved her of her sufferings. Allegheny County. On Sunday eve ning the 11th Nov., a girl named Brush, whilst going from the village ot Sewickly to the house of her parents, a distance of per haps a .mile and a half,, was overtaken by three men, who immediately seized her, and after gagging her so that 'she could make no outcry, violated her person. They then left her in an insensible condition on the road, where she was found some time after by a gentleman and lady -returning from church. The perpetrators of this out rage, whose names are Hamilton, Kennedy and Latt inter, were not arrested at last ac counts. No punishment could possibly be too severe for such fiends in human shape. I.cpoiiji Couvtv - On 1 -It 1 . il pn M. Hollenbaek, died suddenly at Wilkes barre, of heart disease.. He was a remark able man. At the time the Governor of Pennsylvania refused to give his sanction to an appropriation for the completion of the orth Branch canal until the building of the Junction was assured, Mr. II. stepped forward and induced Mr. ..John Arnot, of Elmira, to join him, and each pledged one hundred thousand dollars, and all difficulty was removed. The cemetery site was also a gift to the public He was the richest man in Wi'kesbarre, and his loss will be deeply felt by that community. . . . At Wyoming, a week or two ago, a gentleman from Wa verly, N. Y., shopped to feed his horse. Something odd about the animal attracted attention from one of the keen Troy horse men and he discovered that the horse had been painted. The animal had been stolen some weeks before, and traced to Wiikes bane, where, the owners received inforrria ation of his whereabouts, (at Fhicksbin ny) on paying fifty .dollars. The horse had been painted to disguise him. Arrest of the Mexican Gen. Ortega. Gen. Sheridan, it appears,, has lost no time in acting upon the sentiments express- -1- 1" ! .. " .11. . 1 eu in uls letter oi instructions to t ue uniiecu States officer in command of the Browns ville district, relative to the factions contend ing for supremacy in Republican Mexico. He has caused Ortega to be arrested, there by preventing that General from crossing the Rio Grande into the State of Taruau lipas, where a number of bis partisans were awaiting his arrival. ..This action of Gen. Sheridan is in strict accordance with the policy of the United States Government, which recognizes Juarez as the legitimate President of Mexico. It is stated that he acted under instructions from Washington. Ortega has protested ; but the moral effect of his arrest will be fatal to his cause. , A Fast Town. Gen.. McMakin, the founder of Pontotoc, Miss.,' gives the follow ing information about the fitst days of that place: "In one month after I had laid off the town, I sold $H0,000 worth of lots. In two months I put up a . hotel ; good log houses, with brick chimneys, to accommo date 400 persons with board and lodging ; stable room and lots to accommodate 40") horses. In three months after the laying off of the town, there were forty-five stores and thirty-three groceries.- Property chan ged hands to the amount of $300,000 per day for four years." The Chicago Times article on negro suf frage, following so closely on the determina tion of the Catholic Church to elevate the social condition of the negro, to take him into church fellowship and accept him as an equal before God, is a staggering blow to the attitude of the less informed portion of the Copperheads. Hatred of the negro and denial of his rights, alike in politics and religioo, is the animating sense of modern Democracy. If the Chicago limes and the Catholics succeed in their purposes, the Democratic party will be no more. ; The Methodist Church. At" the cen tenary of Old John Street Church in New York, it was stated that the increase of the church alluded to had been more than ac complished : that the communicants of the Methodist Episcopal Church,-in this coun try. nt counting the preachers, numbered 1,030,978, being again this year of 101,719.. At the John street meeting there were er sons present from sixteen different States, and a number from various foreign countries. Congressmen at Large. The position of "Congressmen at Large," to which the Hon. John A. Logan has just been elected in Illinois, is explained as fol lows : - The law of L3d of May, I S50, fixes the number of members of Congress at two hundred and thirty three, who are redis tributed among the States after and in ac cordiance with evejy decimal census. An act of March 4th. 1 S52, increased, however, the number of representatives from two hundred ami thirty-three to two hundred and forty-one, by allowing one additional representative to eight States, ot which Illinois was one. The number of Congress men of Illinois was thus raised from thir teen to fourteen. The State Legislature of Illinois, instead of dividing the State into fourteen districts, preferred to elect only thirteen members of Congress in separate districts, and to have the fourteenth elected by the vote of the whole State. - This is the "Congressmen at Large," for which office General Logan has just received a ma jority approaehing 00,000. Illinois is the only State in the Union which has a 'Con gressman at Large" (not counting the States which elect only one Contre-sman.) &Uiv-dvrrtt!s:rtttcnt$.
