Raftsman's Journal. 1v S. J. IOW, KDITOB AID PROPRIETOR. CI.EARFIELD, PA., AUG. 14, 1867. FOR SUPREME JCDfiB, Hon. Henry W. "Williams, or Pitts Br RG. The Bemedy With the People. The Gettysburg Shir and Sentinel with touch force remarks that while Constitu tional reform should not be lost sight of, the people should continually bear in mind the imDortance of "electing to places of trust men who will hold themselves above and beyond all corrupt influences, indirect or. otherwise." For most of the evils so much complained of, a remedy rests in the hands of the people themselves. The evils have arisen from permitting dishonest and incompetent men to obtain possession of the offices from high to low. Our Legisla ture has become corrupt because men wil ling to eell themselves have so generally been chosen. There is no Constitutional remedy that will reach this evil The peo ple are the source of the evil and the reme dy, both perhaps it would be more proper to Bay, the politicians are the ' cause of the evil and the remedy rests solely with the people. This ia an every day, perfectly palpable fact. Conventions fall into the hands of small politicians in the service of aspirants. These aspirants generally are the. architects of the ruin that has been worked to our reputation at home and abroad. There is nothing to which it is more important the people should become aroused than this. It is time they took possession of their conventions and presen ted nominees to support whom would bring the blush to the cheek of no man. The advocates of Judge Sharswood tell us that hels an able jurist and a christian gen tleman. -. We do not doubt it nay concede it alL Aye, he may rival Blackstone in a Avkat of th?CT htne"d":cisionr our J udges effect the interests of the nation, probity and ability alone will not answer. The views and decisions of Judge Shars wood are antagonistic to the best interests of the State and nation. He is not the man for the Supreme bench, Besides the differences of opinion existing between the President and Secretary Stan ton, there is likewise a coolness on the part ' of the Secretary of the Treasury toward his chief, not occasioned, of course, by politics, but by personal differences, one of which is in respect to the removal of Collector Kel logg, of New Orleans. Whether Mr. M'CuI- loch, like Stanton, is to be 'forced to resign' has not yet appeared. The party that clapped its hands in exul tation at Judge Shars wood's decision against the national currency asks the people to el evate him to place and power. The people rsk to be excused! The man who stabbed the nation when it was weak and well nigh exhausted cannot have the support of any man that loves his country. since the close of the testimony in the burratt case, a man has arrived who rode with Surratt on the 13th, on tie special A I AT ft" a T 1 train ironi fjimira to narrisimrg, and a third party from the interior gives the in formation that he met Surratt in Washing ton on the 14th, and shook hands and con- j versed with him. The rebels iu Tenuessee cannot stand up before the invincible Brownlow and the true men of that State.but go down as did Lee's hosts before the invincible army of the Po tomac at Appomattox Court House, Virgin ia, As Tennessee has gone so will go the the other States in the South. , John Tyler, the meanest renegade that ever lived, refused to appoint George Shars wood' to a Judgship in the United States District Court ' Are the loyal men of Penn sylvania prepared to accept a man for a Judgship whom Tyler refused to trust? r n 7- TT" " . . vcu. uiui persists in protesting against the removal of Sheridan, on the ground that it will be lmurious to the nnblin wrulpo nA the peace of the country, to make any change in the commanders of the military districts. There is in the War Department a confes sion of Atzerot, in which he gives an ac count of an interview with Booth on the day of the assassination, when Booth told him that Surratt had arrived in Washington. Ex-Gov. David R. Porter died at Harris- burg oo August 6th, in the 791 h year ofchia age-- He filled an important place in the politics of the State for thirty years past. - It is announced that Hon. Henry D. Fos ter, of Greensburg, wants to be the Demo eratic tandidate for the Vice Presidency next year. ... r I What They Think of It. ; The letter of the notorious Robert Toombs, which he issued somr weeks ago, much in the toue and humor of a bear with a very s"re hesid, has not had lcuch effect even amoug those who formerly were sway ed by the eminent conspirator. The impu dence of the renegade rebel does not, of course, strike them as it does us, but they have discernment enough tosee tbeim policy of its proposition, and they, therefore, with a prudence which it utterly lacks, decline to give it either approval or sympathy. The proposed party and its objects, and especially under -such a leader, they wisely repudiate. The following from a Georgia paper expresses probably the common sen timent, concerning the letter aud its broken down authority : "As we interpret it, it indicates that an effort is to be made to organize a party in support of the right of secession. We thought the South luid abandoned that doctrine as a practical idea in American politics. While neither war nor majorities can change men's convictions, jet when there were two interpretations of the con stitution, and the supporters of both went to war to enforce them, the doctrine of the prevailing party mut be taken as establish ed. Even if our abstract reflections led us to a different conclusion, we should feel hound to submit to the ultimate arbiter. Such a tremendous war ought to settle some thing. Having invoked the God of battles, we feel boundby his decision. Further, the purpose which this letter discloses is very ill-timed. The people of the North are divided unon the terms of reinstating the South. They are united, with trifling ex ceptions, in condemning secession. It is our nolicv to offer everv inducement for liberal terms. The appearance of a party anion? us. under such a leader, maintaining a doctrine which they almost all abhor, trill give a vast increase or strength to those who favor the harshest terms." The President and Mrs. Surratt. Mr. Johnson denies that when he signed the sentence of Mrs. Surratt and directed her execution, he knew thit members of the commission had united in recommen ding her to mercy. He declares that he knew nothing of such a recommendation until two weeks afterward. This has elicit ed from Judge Pierepont another statement, which is in these words: ' I want no misunderstanding "about that. I do not intend there shall be any. That is part of the original record which I here produced. It is in the handwriting of one of the members of that Court, to wit: General Ekin. The original of that is now in his posession, and in the handwriting of lion. John A., iiingham. When counsel called for that record, I sent on the after noou of that day to Judge Advocate Gener al Holt, in whose posession the records are. VIa kwnili nitd Viia nvn Vi r. rl and told me with his own voice, m presence of the other gentlemen, that identical paper, then apart of the record, was before the President at the time on the subject. That IS my authority. Subseauent to this, hav ing presented it here, the Judge Advocate treneral called to receive it back, and reit erated in the presence of other gentlemen the same thing. This is my knowledge, and that is my authority. This statement of Judge Pierpent raises a direet question of veracity between the President and Judge Holt, but it, is well understood by all in official circles that the whole thing is,on the part of the Presidents deliberate and malicious misrepresentation. Kentucky. It is estimated that not less than twenty thousand men who had been rebel soldiers voted at the Kentucky elec tions last week. The usual amount ot kill ing of loyal men and negroes is recorded along with the Democratic triumph of for ty thousand. The following from a Lexing ton letter reads as a matter of course : "We have a good deal of talk about calling Radical Convention to meet iu Frankfort some time in September, at which the Rad ical party will be reorganized, come out straight for negro suffrage, the emialintinn of the laws,and reconstruction of the State by Congresss. it is said the neirrocs will f60-1 delcatef! ? nis Convention, and if utuiuu Bcnia win uuiaa convention or tneir own a Mack-and-tan Convention, withmit distinction of color. which will ask ior black suffrage, and reconstruction may be looked for." ' Kentucky is one of the fittest States for reconstruction in the list, and with reference to her it is but "a question of time." The Philadelphia Lcdaer in an article re viewing the nnaneial e.ireer nf Xir AInrfnn Peto, says: "It is said that while iu this country, some of his proposals were of so questionable a character in regard to his great western railroad scheme that one of our aoiest railroad managers, after an inter view With him. nVrlnrorl that if tli.'no to be managed as he said, the credit of the whole would be destroyed in less than two years. His visit here, his banquets and compliments, were nottung but an im- incuse iiieiiiuu in pusning ms credit to tne utmost possible limit, and by advertis mg in Liondon the gigantic nature of his railway plans in the United States, floated hubbies large enough to keep his credit goou. : The latest depredations by the Indians rather upset the moral suasion idea. The perpetrators are said to be Indians tH government has for some time back been feeding. It this is the wav thev show thir gratitude and friendship, the feeding 'pro cess uaa better stop. We understand that the only hoDe of avoid and a war of extermination that is of the inaians and the treasury is that the new Hoard ot commissioners wav irwlimo th savages to settle on some distant reservation, there to live in peace and nnui t end an effort is to be made; but we do not understand that any one has n,nT, dence in it succeeding. A conspiracy has been discovered inW.A. ington the object of which is the rescue of Surratt. The police are nre ar.d ; 1 X" av& AIj. Important from WaiMngton. On the 12th, President Johnson issued an order removing Stanton from his office as Secretary of War, and appointing Gen. Grant as Acting Secretary. . A rumor is current that the President in tends to dismiss Secretaries Seward and MeCulloch, and Postmaster General Ran dall, unless they resign soon. Mr. Adams, United States Minister at London, is spoken of as the successor of Mr. Seward., Moses Taylor, of New York, is mention ed as likely to succeed Mr. M'Culloch. Geii. Steadman, it is said, has been ten dered the position of Mr. Stanton, and that he is en route for Washington. The probable dismissal of the Cabinet of ficers, by the President, originated in a dis agreement as to the policy of the dismissal of Secretary Stanton. It is alleged that Secretary Stanton had just received information of a scheme for the arming of military organizations in the late Rebel States, with a view of making a new aasault upon the government. This is given as the reason for Mr. Stanton wishing to retain his position, with a view of sup pressing the conspiracy at once. The rebel lawyers- in Washington city, held a meeting to protest against the dis missal of Bradley, Surratt's counsel, from the U. S. Court, bjT J udge Fisher. Truly, things have come to a pretty pass, when unrepentant rebels deign to dictate to a loy al Judge whom he must permit to practice in his Court Such is the tenor of the news received by last night's mail, which would indicate that there was trouble ahead. What the result of all this "muss" will be, it is difficult to fercsae. Time will tell. "A Sign of the Times." Mr. Thurlow Weed, after a two weeks' fishing tour with Secretary Seward, thus speaks of the Dem ocrats : "The progress of reconstruction in the South, however tardy, has developed one siguiScant political fact, which is, that the Rebellion has proved fatal to the Dem ocratic party. Southern Democracy and Slavery occupy a common grave. Political organizations will 'take any form but that' The early admonition of Gov. Orr on this question was even more significant than was at first supposed. . Hateful as 'Black Re publicanism' was to the South before the war, it is quite as comely in their eyes now as Democracy- So marked is the aversion of Southern Democrats to their former Northern allies, that the fact cannot be ig nored. " 1 - s i. i i - The serious charge brought by the Dem ocratic press against Judge. Williams that he is not a native of the State, suggest the case of the eloquent S. S. Prentiss.- of Mississippi. In his warm contest for Con gress in that State, his opponent stated that the people of Mississippi were under obliga tions to vote for him because he was a na tive of Mississippi, while Prentiss was not. In reply to this, Prentiss said the fact stated by his opponent placed them under greater obligations to him than to his opponent, for, said he, "after arriving at maturity I voluntarily came to this State, while my opponent came under circumstan ces over which ha had no control" The Surratt Jury. The jury in the Surratt case have been discharged, not be ing able to agree. Fpur were for convicting the criminal, and eight for acquittal Nothing else could be expected, as at least two thirds of the white resident population of Washington cityheartily sympathi.se in the act which produced the death of Mr. Lincoln. It is doubtful if a jury can be got there that will arrive at a conclusion differ ent i rem that reached by the one just dis charged: and hence every effort to convict the prisoner will fail, no matter if proven guilty. : The business men of the South, who are anxious to restore the prosperity of that re gion, declare that the course of the Presi dent in agitating the policy of removing Sheridan has cost it as much in injury to trade as one year of the rebellion cost. An .1-, Tl :.. , ir .,, - uicrt uuiiuwu is nun me iui jjeuiuieni in the "way of the investment of large sums of money in the South, both in agricultural and manufacturing operations. ; It has come to light that the secret of the j. icaiuciu a iiuiiiy oecieiiiry toianion IS because he was mainly instrumental in caus ing Congress to meet in summer session,and thus thwarted some pet and dangerous schemes which he had information the President had intended to consummate in case of a long adjournment. Not only has the President been proved entirely mistaken in his assertion that he never saw the" recommendation to mercy in Mrs. Surratt's case, but the very words he used after reading it, have transpired, and were these : "We must be protected from female assassins as well as male assassins " Governor Brownlow received C44 maiori- ty in Knoxville over Eth ridge, where he re sides. In Greene, President J ohnson's own county, Brownlow's majority was 738, and 90 in the town of Greeneville, the Presi dent's home. . ' In Mississippi Republican speeches are denounced as incendiary documents. Of course they are. They are firing the re- inains of the dry-rot in that quarter.

The entrance in to it was by a flight of crazy steps on the outside. The election was progressing, sev eral thousands of persons in thecourt house vard and immediate neiirhborinsr streets.and I was standing on Gadsby's steps, when the rather or his Country drove up, and imme diately approached the court house, ana when within a yard or two of them, I saw eight or ten good looking men, from differ ent directs, certainly without the least con cert, spring simultaneously and place them selves in positions to uphold and support the steps should they tall in the. General ascent of them. I was immediately at his back, and in that position entered the court room followed in his wake, through a dense crowd, to the polls heard him vote return ed with him to the outward crowd heard him cheered by more than two thousand persons as he entered his carriage, and saw his departure. 1 here were five or six can didates cn the bench sitting, and as the Gen approached them, they arose in a body and bowed smilingly ; and, the salutation having been returned very gracefully, the Genera! immediately cast his eyes towards the reg istry or the polls, when Col. Densald, think it was, said: 'Well, General, how do yon vcte-r lhe General looked at the can didates and said : 'Gentlemen, I vote for measures, not for men :' and turning to th recording table, audibly pronounced his vote saw it entered made a graceful bow and retired. - That plain, heroic magnitude of mind which distinguished ' Washington above a other men of his time, was evident in a his actions. There is a vast amount of prac ticai wisdom in the remark, Gentlemen vote for measures, not for men," which thoe who are called to vote upon the great issues now agitating the country would do well to consider. Measures are the grand end to be looked -1-1 . at in selecting a candidate. A man may posess great ability, but u that ability be directed in a wrong channel, it only mcreas es the possessor's power for mischief. The Democratic party have placed on their tick et as candidate for the Supreme Bench the name of a man whose abilities have never been questioned by either part', with the hope -that his personal popularity may atone for the criminal platform upon which he stands. But this clap-trap mode of pro ceeding avails tnem nothing, lhe record of Judge Sharswood is the record of the Democratic party. He is identified with every plank of its platform. He is pledged to every article ot its creed. His infamous legal tender decisions are fresh in the mind of the people, and his utterances in regard to the construction of our Government are but the echo of those of Judge Taney himself. He is a member of the States Rights school, of full standing, and believes with Jeremiah lilack, that "the Govern nient has no power to coerce a State," even though the State may be engaged in open, defiant rebellion. Even conceding all the superiority which the Democrats claim for their candidate, we could not support Judge csnarswood -with such a record clinging to him. In the words of the founder of our republic," we vots'for measures, not for men. But such a concession is not neces sary. e have presented to the neonle candidate the eoual in everv nersonal attri bute of his distinguished opponent, while his political record is all that could be de sired full, complete and satisfactory: There can oe no personal issue in this contest. both candidates are gentlemen of the hieh est order.

"On the whole, then, I am of oninion that the provision of the act of Congress of i-ebruary ziath, li-bi.', declaring the notes is sued in pursuance of that act to be lawfu money, and a legal tender, is unconstitu tional.

In the same copy of the Age is a carefully prepared eulogy of the J udge and this opinion, in which is the following : Judge Sharswood reasons upon and de cides the case as if he were some loftv snir it sitting far above and out of the conten tions and strifes of the world. " . Will not the holders of greenbacks and Government bonds consider the judge as quite too elevated and etherial for such earthly honors as a seat on the Supreme Bench. The Valuation of property, under the in ternal revenue law, shows very generally an increase. Taking the period of six or sev en years, the advance has been great. The Southern States cannot, of course, be em braced in this remark, although individuals in favorablellocalities have, no donht added considerably to their property. The depre ciation and loss consequent on the rebellion are immense.

The following . brief but expressive cor respondence passed between the President of the United States and the Secretary of V ar on the 5th inst, : the president's note. Executive Mansion, Washington, August, 5. To Edwin M, Stanton, Secre tary of War : Sir:. Grave public consid erations constrain me to request your resig nation as Secretary of War. Andrew Johnson, President of the United States. ' ; secretary stanton's answer. War Department, Washington, Au gust 6. To His Excellency, Andrew John sou, President of the United States: SlR: Your note informing me that grave public considerations constrain you to request my resignation as Secretary of War has been received. In answer, I have to state that grave public considerations constrain me to continue in the office of Secretary of War until the next meeting of Congress. Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. Edwin M. Stanton has unquestionably been of great-use to the country during the time.he has been the Head of the War De partment. His great administrative quali ties, his inflexible adherence to justice in the discharge of what he conceived to be his duty, his amazing fortitude in the face of disaster, his unmeasured zeal, his great skill in forming combinations to ensure the suc cess of projects decided upon are all known to the country, and now constitute a large portion of what we call the glory of the war. But Edwin M. Stanton will be remembered longest and most gratefully by all truly loyal men, for having written the letter we print above, in answer to the insolent insult couched in the single sentence composing Andrew Johnson's note asking him to retire from the War Department It is a request as full of mischief as was the demand of the rebels when they seceded from the Union, to be let alone; and when Secretary Stanton declined to accede to it, he showed not only a grave regard for the interests of the coun try, but a ja-;t appreciation of the wants of the public service. The tenure of office law is not only on the side of Mr. Stanton, le galizing his hold on the War Department, but' the tenure of the Government itself, the peace of the country, tranquility in all its sections and credit abroad, require that he shall remain where he is until the assem bling of Congress. We repeat, therefore, that for the boldness of writing his reply to the President's insolent request, for the un selfishness of determining to brave the in sults of a corrupt Chief Magistrate, and for his courage to stand by the honor and true authority of the Government, Edwin M. Stanton will be remembered and honored while loyal men have a country to love. - Mr. Stanton is the admitted obstacle to reinstatement of rebels to power. He is the only man in the Cabinet who opposed the President's vetoes of measures passed in Congress by a constitutional two-thirds vote. These simple facts make the Secre tary of War the only loyal representative in the Executive branch of the Government ere ne to resign, tne commanders now contending with traitors in the South would at once have a fire opened on their rear. Sheridan and Sickles, without Stanton in the War Department, would be flanked registration in the South would be male farce the ballot-box would be polluted, and the lives of Union men made more unsafe than they were when Jeff. Davis ruled as the head of the Confederacy. It is the cre ation of such a condition of affairs that Mr. Stanton seeks to avoid by refusing to retire from the ar Department until the meet ing of Congress. The safety of the country unquestionably rests on the resolution of the Secretary of War to be firm in his determi nation. . We do not doubt, his fortitude; He cannot be intimidated, lie knows his duty and will perform it Never had a loy al people more reason to rejoice in the pos session of a faithful public servant, than have the true men of the country to con gratulate themselves on the attitude of Ed win M. Stanton. Telegraph.
