. J. BOW, BDITOK AID PROPEIETOR.
CLEARFIELD, PA., FEB. 27, 1867.
. To the Point. Gen. Thomas has sent
a letter to the Mayor of Rome, Georgia,
which will obtain the approval ot all loyal
citizens. He very emphatically informs
the people of the Department of the Ten
nessee that the display of the Confederate
flag is an offense to be punished. They are
told that the late war was not a revolution
but a rebellion, and that treason is a crime
that must not be paraded as a virtue. He
adds that ' -'everywhere in the States lately
"in rebellion treason is respectable and loy
alty odious." We presume this letter
will prevent any renewal of those exhibi
tions of the Rebel flag, which seem recentr
ly to have been more frequent in the South
than the display of the Stars and Stripes..
Impartial Suffrage. It is noteworthy
that the question of suffrage is the one now
most agitating England and the United
States. In each country the radicals, who
are the conservators of human rights, de
mand universal suffrage ; the conservatives
who conserve old errors resist the demand.
In England it is the aristocracy, whose pow
er would be curtailed if the people were ad
mitted to their rightful voice in the govern
ment, who resist the popular movement.
In this country, the movement is resisted
by the remnants of the slave! aristocracy,
the late rebels, and those who have always
been their allies in the North.
Murder, Unprecedented. On Wed
nesday morning, Feb. 20th, as George Eller
was about to take his seat in the prisoner's
dock, in the Criminal Court, in Philadel
phia, he was shot and instantly killed by
Thomas Leis. Eller had brutally outraged
the little daughter of Leis, aged between
ten and eleven years, and was about to be
placed on trial for the offense, when the ag
onized parent took, the law into his own
hands. Leis made no effort to escape, and
he was committed to jail for trial.
A Question Answered. The Copper
head organs are constantly ringing the ques
tion into the ears of the people, "What
has the party in power (meaning the Re
publican) done for the country?" There
never was a question put more easy to an
sw&r. It has prevented the! Democratic
leaders from destroying the Government,
and conquered the traitors who armed for
that work. Could any party do more ?
Test of Sincerity. A nephew of Stone
wall Jackson is in Connecticut to raise mon
ey for educational purposes in the South.
He says that "in the Northern States the
Radical Republicans have contributed gener
ally, while the Democrats, whom he regard
ed as his special friends, have done almost
nothing." This declaration is certainly
very, creditable to the Republicans. How
do you like it, ' 'Democrats ?"
A New Name. Petroleum V. Nasby ur
gently advocates the passage of a law in ev
ery State, granting the right to the Democ
racy to change their name, from "dough
face and copperhead" to that of "Spaniel
Democracy.' He thinks the name is "soft
and euphonious," as well as grapfiic in its
descriptive force, and therefore well calcu
lated to be applied to his friends. Petrole
um shouldn't be so severe.
High Water. Last week, the water Was
higher in the Wabash river, than ever be
fore known. It is said that the steamboats
tan over the prairies on the Illinois side pick
ing ud corn and other freight. The water
was ten miles wide, and the tops of many
houses were barely visible. The fences were
all swept away, and considerable other dam
age was done.
Keeps the Lead. The Negro suffrage
bill has become a law of Tennessee. Thus
this State keeps right on, the pioneer in
Freedom and Progress. This law will go
far to afford security in the future against
the rebels, and stimulate those who else
where hesitate about putting in practice the
principles of universal suffrage.
"Incurable Insane," received an in
terpretation in the reply of the auditors of
Hendricks county, Indiana, to the circular
of the Auditor General as follows : "You
&sk what number of incurable insane
are in this county. We have none except
the 'twelve hundied and fifty fellows' who
voted against the Union ticket."
' -
Proscription.- The Lewistown Gazette
ays, that the Commissioners of Mifflin
eount j refuse to appoint any man as Collec
tor who if recommended by a Republican
Assessor. This is another illustration of
the prescriptive tendencies of the Latter
dy Democracy, where they have the power.
"Disloyalty of the Democratic Party."
Two weeks since, we copied an extract
from the New York Iribune, duly credited,
in reference to the "disloyalty of the Dem
ocratic party-leaders," whereupon our crab
bed and peevish neighbor, who is ever ready
to mollify and excuse the treason of the reb
els of the South and defend the complicity
of their sympathisers in the North, relieves
himself of a little "bile" in the' following
dignifietl (?) style :
The Devil always finds employment for his
children. Thisis illustrated in the attemptof the
7iand oui neighbor of the Journal, to PI?ve
the -disloyalty of the Democratic party.' . . - This
is upon the prinoiple that the meanest w e in
the crowd is always pointing out her less frail
sister, for the purpose of attracting attention from
herself."
In this item the chaste (?) writer implied
ly denies all complicity of the leaders of his
party with disloyalty ; yet we would not
have referred to the subject, had not tne
truth of the Tribune's statement w en can
didly acknowledged bythe New York Day
Book, the leading organ of the Latter-day
Democracy a paper which, perhaps, our
neighbor reveres more than he does the Bi
ble. The World, another organ ot the same
party, having charged the Tribune with "re
flecting upon the patriotism of the Denio-
rratic party," the Day-Book volunteers a
defence, and denounces the I orld as a cor
rupting and debauching sheet" that is "ef
fectually building up and strengthening the
Abolition party," and then continues thus :
Now, we do not pretend to speaK for the 'Dem
ocratic party,' but we do speak for at least twice
as many readers and subscribers as the World,
and ire are frank to say that the charge of the
Tribune is perfectly trce. We give Mr. Greeley
credit for a fair and candid statement o f the fads
a they are. The great bulk of the Democratic
party of the North were disloval,' as the Aboli
tionists count loyalty, and had it not been for the
defection of their leaders, -the Union as it was'
would never have given place to 'the Union as it
ought to be ' Others may esteem it as an asper
sion upon their patriotism that they were not loud
and earnest suDDorters of the war to inae the U-
nion as Garrison and Greeley wanted it, but r toe
have antthing in our record of which -we feel
vroud. it is. that toe sever. KXOWISOLT OR wil-
lingly, contributed one rent of material aid, or
even bu word, thought, deed or acttou, evereneonr-
aged the war for the subversion of the Union as
our fathers made it. and this, we blieve, teas the
sentiment of the great majority of the Democratic
party before they were wheedled andforced into
the late war."
' Here we have the "frank" admission of
the Day-Book that the statement of the
Tribune "is PERFECLTYTRUE," and its pos
itive declaration that "the great bulk of the
" Democratic party of the North were dis
loyal." The Day-Book further admits
that it "nerer knowingly or willingly, con
" tributed one cent of material aid, or even
" by word, deed, or action ever encouraged
" the war," and then declares that it believes
"this was the sentiment (or position) of the
" great majority of the Democratic party."
Now, George, does "tKo Tlovil ftlwaya finl
"employment tor his children?" If the
admissions of the Day-Book are true we
can't deny the fact, for it declares that "the
" bulk of the Democratic party were disloy
" oZ" during the war; and hence, as such
perfidy can only produce evil, the fair infer
ence is that the "disloyal" leaders of the
so-called "Democratic" party during the
war, were in the "employment of the
DeviL" "Does the 'meanest w e in the
crowd alwaj's point out her less frail sister ?"
If so, is that the "principle" upon which
you "now have the impudence to charge"
others with the "crimes" that the Day
Book acknowledges to be "perfectly true"
of the "great majority" of your party?
We would kindly suggest to Doctor George,
the propriety of studying his "Text-Book"
a little closer, before he again attempts to
visit his "own crimes" upon other.? "for the
purpose of attracting attention" from him
self and hi3 party.
German Eeconstruction.
The German kingdoms and principalities
situated on the South of the river Main, and
which were designed by the treaty of Prague
to be included in the South German Con
federation, now evince a disposition to be
come attached to Prussia. Baden it seems,
had already made an offer to Prussia, but
the latter refused the application. Now,
Bavaria has taken a new step. Its Prime
Minister announces that bo South German
Confederacy will be formed, and that, "lor
the preservation of Germany and the Ger
man tribes." she would ally herself to
Prussia, in case of war, and that mean
while, the Bavarian army would be so
organized as to facilitate such co-operation.
A Conference of all the South German
governments is to be held at Stuttgardt,
to make the same arrangement. This
done, all the German troops, in case of a
foreigh war, except those belonging to Aus
tria, would be placed under the leadership
ot Prussia. This will create a force fully
equal to that which France can bring into
the field. These movements are of high
moment, and connot fail of ending in the
consolidation of Germany into one Govern
ment. Parliamentary rule has been decreed
in Prussia, and if all has not been granted
that is desirable, improvements will be cer
tain to follow speedily. There may be some
uncomfortable friction in the working of the
machinery for a little while: but the Ger
mans have abundant learning, intelligence
and love of liberty to maintain, in Central
Europe, a system in which all the inherent
rights of man shall be respected.
Rather a Rich . One. A Washington
dispatch says, that a Democratie member
of Congress contemplates moving the ap
pointment of a Smelling Committee, to as
certain what members are in t.he habit of
drinking too much whisky. His democrat- !
ic colleagues, however, are expostulating
against it, . 1

Notwithstanding the jurisdiction of Courts
to issue charters of incorporation in certain
cases, many applications for the passage of
acts continue to be made to the Legislature,
instead of applying to the Courts for the
franchises desired. For the information ot
those interested, it is proper to state, that
there is no use of having such acts passed
by the Legislature, as the Governor will ve
to them. In the Senate, Speaker Hall rules
all such bills out of order ; but in the House
a great many have been passed, the mem
bers knowing at the time they were uncon
stitutional, but in deference to the wishes ot
their constituents they presented them, and
no objection being made were passed, but
only to be vetoed by the Governor. These
vetoes are under the amendments to the
Constitution, passed by the Legislature in
1 863, and adopted by the people the same
year. It may be well enough to bear these
facts in mind, in order to save both trouble
and expense, without obtaining the object
in view.
The friends ot the Pennsylvania Rail
road did not call up the bill to increase the
capital stock, of the company, last week, as
was anticipated. For what reason I am not
aware, but presume they were not ready.
The Committee to whom was reported the
bill providing that eight hours shall be a le
gal day's labor, have reported against the
bill, and thus the question will likely end
for this session. The present Legislature
seems to be opposed to any interference
with existing laws and regulations. In tact,
there is no good reason for any change,
Should the number of hours of labor be re
duced, a corresponding reduction of wages
will likely follow. Then, where's the benefit ?
The friends of the Conndlsville Railroad
have not abandoned their project A new
bill, to restore their charter, is to be presen
ted to the House. This will afford an op
portunity to the responsible majortity to re
trieve the fatal error committed when the
original bill was defeated. The repeal of
the charter of the company, after having
expended to great an amount of money up
on their road, was a premeditated wrong,
and it is to be hoped that they will yet re
ceive full justice at the hands of the pres
ent Legislature, by rest oring hem all their
original franchises.
Gov. Geary has appointed Henry Gilbert,
of Dauphin county, George Bergner, of Har
risburg, and Wm. Lowther, of Perry county,
trustees of the State Insane Asyluni.
"Doctoring tite Nation." Under this
caption, Doctor George, in his last issue,
boastingly informs the people that he recent
ly "volunteered another prescription" Ibr
their benefit. It is as follows : '
"Ye loyalists to-day, who voted and talk
ed for war in 18G0, do you want the same
thing in 1868? . . . More drafts and bounty
taxes wi'l be your lot, jyou continue to vote
for men who have no more respect for the
Constitution than a hyena has lor a corpse.
Now there is one very important fact con
tained in this "prescription" of this latter
day "political quack." It is this: That
if the people will so vote in 1808 as to pre
vent his party from electing a President, he
and his political friends will rebel as they
did in 1860! Well, that is a very candid
and timely admission, and one which the
people should bear in mind.
The Richmond Enquirer, under the im
pression that the temporary loss ot cner
man's amendment would be the deatli of
reconstruction for the present session, says
the news was "received with the liveliest
satisfaction." The joy was brief, for that
which gave fo much "satisfaction" to rebels
could not be long persisted in by loyal men.
By this time the Enquirer is in deepest
mourning. The innocent man, forgetful of
the past, says there is something revolting
in the overthrow of the Government, and
the invasion by armies of a people who are
in profound peace." Pity the South did not
think so m 1861. Having acted on the op
posite principle, the penalty has become in
evitable and that's what's the matter.
Some of the Kentuckians are longins to
have tor their Governor the man who left
the State in a one horse buggy,under charge
of a negro boy, some years ago, to join the
army ot the rebels. He is said to have
been nominated at a public meeting in one
county, and it is declared that the nomina
tion was received with wild enthusiasm.
Very wild, it must have been, if it recog
nized as deserving of honor J. C. Breckin
ridge, who so meanly left the State, against
his own professed principles, and who also
invaded his own State, at the head of deso
lating and reckless bands of rebels, fighting
against the Government to which his State
belonged. Wild enthusiasm, truly.
TnE Goddess of Liberty. The origin
of the portrait for the Goddess of Liberty
upon our coins is of great interest. Mr.
Spencer, the inventor of Spencers lathe,
used by the American Bank Note Compa
ny, was the artist who cut the first die lor
our American coin. He cut an exact me
dallion of Mrs. Washington, and the first
few coins were struck with her portrait.
When General Washington saw them he
was displeased, and requested the figure to
be removed. Mr. Spencer altered the fea
tures a little, and putting a cap upon its
head, called it the Goddess of Liberty.
In a Flurry. It is said that the arrival
of John H. Surratt has caused a great flur
ry among the Copperheads and Rebels in
Washington city, and that a subscription
has been opened to raise funds to defray the
the expenses of his defense. v,
"In 1860 he (the present editor nf tla
Journal) counselled the Southern people to
Becede. Clearfield Republican.
Oh, what a fib I Doctor George. ;
"Washington City Goaeip.
On the arrival of the Swatara,it was announced
that John H. Surratt denied his identity This
seems to have been, a mistake. When asked by
the Marshall of the District if his name was John
H. Surratt, he promptly answered in the affirma
tive. He is in first late health, and presents a
most striking and picturesque appearance in his
Zouave uniform, which is new and foppish in its
embroidery and decorations. His Counsel, Ex-
Gov. Thomas H. Ford and Col. Sol Ilinckel, have
already made application for admission to his
cell, and it is understood that the authorities of
the Convent in Maryland, in which Annie Surratt
has taken refuge since the death of her mother,
will make similar application on behalf of the
sister of the prisoner.
The Supreme Court has decided the case of
Thompson vs. Bowie, an action on certain prom
issory notes of Hon Thomas F. Bowie, of Mary
land. The defense was that the notes were given
for a gaming consideration Among other evi
dence, the defendant being unable directly to
prove his allegation, the Court below permitted
proof that on the date of the notes the defendant
was very drunK, and when drunk was addicted
to gaming, and that the payee of the notes was
the keeper of a gambling house in Washington,
where the notes were made at that time. The
verdict was for defendant, and plaintiff appealed
to this Court, where it was held that such evi
dence should not have been admitted. Jastice
Grier dissents, holding that the defense was one
of alleged fraud iu obtaining the notes, and such
evidence was admissable in that view of the case
The bill to prohibit the President from remov
ing any civil officer from office, including cabinet
ministers, without the consent of fhe Senate, and
better known as the Civil Tenure Bill, was sent
to the President for signature.
Colonel Sprague, Assistant Commissioner of the
Freedmens' Bureau for Florida, reports that the
Freedmen are still arriving from South Carolina
and Georgia, and many are entering land under
the homestead bill. The State is generally quiet
and prosperous.
It has been discovered that the indictment
which has-been found against Surratt is very de
fective. A new one will be drawn up. Good law
yers say the one presented would have been
squashed ia open court and the prisoner discharg
ed. Surratt is now confined in the Washington
city jail. He informed the warden that he in'
tended not to give him any trouble. He asked
particularly about his sister, speaking of her in
tender terms, and said he thought she was dead
The warden informed him that he believed she
was in Maryland. The warden told biiu that it
was his duty to keep him safe, bit would grant
him all proper privileges, and asked him if there
wis anything he wanted. Surratt replied that he
would like to have the privilege of smoking, and
this was granted him.
It appears from a communication from the Seo
retary of the Treasury, that the Government pro
ceeds of the sales of captured and abandoned
cotton in rebel States, has been $29 500,000 1 he
proceeds of the sales of miscellaneous property
raises the total to 531,053,000. Total disburse
ments, S9,310,7S7. The amount of profit to the
United States is nearly $25,000,000. The number
of bales of cotton collected, as abandoned, was
11, ISO: number ralaaaad to owners, 1,907; nam'
ber of bales collected as captured, 151 ,845 ; cum
ber received by Ejimon Draper, cotton agent at
New York, from other sources, 4.542 ; the number
of bales stolen from agents, 144, and number
burned, while in the hands ot agents, 1,697.
A communication from the Comptroller of the
Currency states that the National Panks acqui
esce in the decision of the Supreme Court, that
the States can tax their shares, and three hundred
and eighteen of them have paidS8,412,105 under
State taxation. Including those unreported, the
approximate total Is $7,849,451.
The President has approved the bill authori
zing tho Secretary of the Navy to accept League
Island, in the Delaware river, for naval purposes
and to dispense with and dispose of the site of
the existing Navy Yard at Philadelphia.
The President has also approved the bill au
thorizing the payment of prize money to the of
ficers and enlisted men tf the Signal Corps of the
army who performed duty under Admiral Farra
gut while the fleet was engaged in action in Mo
bile Bay on the 15th of August. 1854.
A communication from the Postmaster General
laid before the House, shows that between the 23th
of July, 1S6A, and the 6th of December, the nam
ber of postmasters removed was 1,861; of this
number 1.2S3 were for political offences.
In response to the Senate's request for informa
tion concerning any violations of the Civil Rights
Bill, the President has but throe cases lo report.
There are many more, undoubtedly, but these
have not come to the Executive knowledge. It is
remarkable, however, that the President does not
include in his statement any reports by military
commanders of crimes committed against the
freedmen. These he has referred to the oblivion,
of the Attorney-General's office, the President
professing to be unable to say whether they con
stitute violations of the Civil Rights Bill.
The House concurred in the amendment of the
Senate to the bill making the Congressional prin
ter an officer of the Senate, and to be elected by
that body. He is to have charge of the Govern
ment printing office and to Superintend the print
ing for all the Departments. Should the Presi
dent sign the bill. Mr. Defrees will be restored to
the place from which he was removed by the
President last September.
Commissioner Bogy has succeeded in having
transferred to the charge of the Indian Depart
ment. 6,000 or 7,000 Navajo Indians, now held
prisoners by the military in New Mexico. These
Indians cost the government last year, for food
and transportation, one and a half million dollars;
whereas, by the transfer, the Commissioner pro
poses to take better care of them at not exceed
ing one-half million dollars.
The Senate, by a large majority, voted against
the transfer of the Indian Bureau to the War
Department. Gen Grant was on the floor of the
Senate, and urged its adoption.
A bill was passed by the Senate to prohibit tho
payment of any bills against the Government to
persons who joined the rebellion. This will pre
vent the payment of army officers who went
South, and have filed claims for back pay.
The Reconstruction bill passed by Congress,
was at once sent to the President, and there seems
to be no doubt now, that he will return it with
his veto notwithstanding the previous assertion
that he would sign it It is stated that in vetoing
the bill, the President will indite a plan of Re
construction to which he is willing to give his
assent which, it is understood, covers the Blaine
amendment. This message will be so framed as
to obviate the necessity of sending a regular mes
sage to the Fortieth Congress, which meets on
the 4th of March,

to secure the passage of a protective tariff".
The League is composed principally of

the Chairman of the Democratic National

is to the interest of his foreign employers.
These facts should be well considered by the
