u V i ill 3 Raftsman's 3tonrcl. t. J. mOW, KOITOK A! PROPRIETOR. '. CliEARFlELD, PA.,' OCT. 30, 18C7. The People and the Presidency. The spontaneous movement of the Re publican masses, in favor of Gen, Grant as the Presidential candidate of the Republi can party, reminds us of the independent action of the people in 1 840 and 1 848. Then, they nominated and elected Generals Harri son and Taylor, without special consultation with their political leaders. So now. Gen. Grant seems to be the favorite of the peo ple, and as such will be nominated and elect ed by them in November, 1 80S. At least, the signs of the times indicate this, and, if iuch be the will of the masses, it will be vain for the leaders of the party to endeavor to change the current of events. And what has caused this sudden movement of the people infaTOf of Gen. Grant? We answer: The late elections having indicated to them that, through the machinations of the poli ticians for their individual enhancement, the future of the country was about to fall into the bands of the enemies of the Union, (into the hands of the men who tried to de stroy our nationality during the late rebel lion,) to the detriment of the best interests of the people, and to the jeopardizing of the permanency of our free government and free institutions ; and hence, the masses, having confidence in Gen. Grant, are spontaneously moving in his favor without consulting their old party leaders. Big Business. , Copperhead journals here as elsewhere continue to crow over what they vauntingly advertise as big business accomplished in the late elections by the vnterrified Democracy. Admitting that a "big business" has been done by the Cdpperheads in the several States at the late elections, we cannot see that it promises any very "big dividends." We remember, in 1862, when the country was depressed by failures of the armies led by such apologies for soldiers as M'Clellan, the Copperheads wrested several States from the Republicans by the following "big" ma jorities : New York, 10,752 Ohio, ; 5,557 Indiana, 5,543 Pennsylvania, 3,524 Illinois, 16,546 In the following year, however, the Re publicans, ignoring side issues, and turning out in their strength, recovered these States by the following majorities: New York, 29,404 Penn'a, Ohio, 101,699 Illinois, Indiana, 15,000 12,402 The Democracy are trusting to a broken reed, if they suppo.se the "big business" they have jijst concluded, has any more sig nificance than the big business which they made so much ado over in 1862. Next fall's elections will thow them a sight which will make their heads swim. At Their Old Game. Goods of all kinds can now be smuggled through the N. York custom house, says the Telegraph, at about one-third the rate of duty imposed by law. This is another evidence of tha beauties of Democratic rule. The New York custom house is entirely under the control of Dem ocrats, who arc determined, if they cannot establish free trade by act of Congress, to defeat the law by conniving at frauds for its violation. To the mechanics of America, this is startling information. Why They Hate Him. It is leakin? out gradually why the Copperheads hate Grant so heartily. The correspondence between Generals Grant and Thomas, at the time of the Nashville election, lately published in full, shows the good sense and clear judg ment of Grant. He did not lend himself, tor permit hjs authority to be used in be half of the Tennessee rebels. West Virginia Election. The general result of theWestVirginia election is still iu doubt, although the returns indicate a Re publican majority in both branches of the Legislature, notwithstanding the Democrats gain several members. "General Apathy" had the field in this State, as is apparent . from the smallness of the vote. Virginia Election. The election in Virginia has resulted in the choice of a ma jority of Radicals to the Convention to form State Constitution. A number of colored men were chosen as delegates two from Richmond. The returns also show a Radi cal majority throughout the State." Latest from Italy. Garibaldi, at the head of an army, is marching on Rome. Napoleon has ordered 30,000 French troops, and a fleet of iron clads, hither to protect the Pope. Stirring news is looked for from that quarter. ' The number of voters'naturalized within a month in New York eitr, is stated at 15,- The Causes of Suicide. A cotemporary makes the following refer ence to the causes of suicides : "Suicides are taid to have been usually more frequent after great wars than at other times. Certainly they have been more nu mtrous in this country since the war than ever before. Rut it i.- not possible by any analysis cr comparison of cases, to discover any connection between them and the war. There is more probably a connection with the corrupt and corrupting literature which many people indulge themselves in reading. Suicide has generally been deemed infamous. The law that excluded the remains of self murderers from Christian burial was founded on this opinion, and may have had a good effect. Suicides prevailed at one time as an epidemic among the blaves in the West In dies. It was generally effected by swallow ing earth. A penalty burying alive was threatened against those detected in the at tempt, and the consequence was that the practice was stopped. The most charitable thory is, that Miieide is caused by insanity, although ir is difficult to account for all cases of the crime on that pround, or to perceive why insanity should take that form and di rection in any case." There is one point in the above to which we would direct particular attention the reference to "the corrupt and corrupting literature," with which the public is sup plied. It is our opinion, that a certain class of publications giving accurate, minute, and full details of the multifarious crimes committed everywhere have a greater ten dency to teach bad-disposed men and women how to successfully carry out their evil and hellish designs than any other one means of which we have any knowledge, and should be suppressed by positive enactment of laws. If this cannot be done, it should be the du ty and aim of every well-disposed and peace loving citizen to use his influence against the circulating and reading of such viciating and corrupting trash, as the best means of elevating the standard of morality in the community, and the preventirg of crime. The Presidency and Congress. The Pittsburg Commercial, in referring to the effects of the late elections upon the Presidential question, and the relative posi tion of Congress thereto. suya : "The late elections have so completely settled the Presidential question as to take it out of Congress and leave the Represen tatives perfectly unembarrassed by if. They will be free to act if they are so disposed, with an epe single to the good of the coun try, without regard to the influence which may be exerted on the chances of candidates. A deck load of stuff which has been accu mulating for some time back, has been thrown overboard. For the isms of individ uals the Republican party will not be held responsible. A cart stuck in the mud is em inently suggestive of the folly of underta king too heavy loads, and of departing from the beaten track, however plausible the in ducements may be lor doing so. Congress, when it meets, will experience no difficulty in applying the lesson of the elections ; and we may safely expect the countrv will be the gainer, from the fact that the Represen tatives will have--nothing to da but apply themselves to their duties, regardless of the interests of candidates for the Presidency in any manner. The Vote in Ohio. The vote at the re cent election in Ohio was the heaviest ever cast in that State. Gen. Hayes received 243,605 votes, and Mr. Thurman 240,622 ; Hayes' majority, 2,983. The entire vote foots up 484,277, which exceeds any previ ous one by over 8,000. Heretofore the lar gest vote was 476,223, at the election for Governor in 1863, including 42,000 soldiers votes. The next largest was 470.000 for President in 1S64, including 60,000 soldiers' votes. The vote for Governor two 'ears a go was 417,000, and for Secretary of S'ate last year 469,0:X. The vote this year id 15,000 larger than any previous purely civ ilian vote. The Republicans at previous elections, have exceeded their aggregate, bnt the Democrats never before attained theirs. The Democratic vote of Ohio was heavier in October, 1867, than at any past election in the history of the State. Two counties gave tie votes. In forty-two coun ties Hayes has a majority, and in forty-four counties Thurman Iras a majority. Gradually and Graciously. The Copperhead leaders of the North are a per sistent : lass of seauips, unwearried in their coursfe of wrong to the nation, p nd unabash ed in their sympathy for those who warred to destrty the Govern ment. While allud ing to this fact, during the rebellion, we fre quently declared these men would some day strive to make treason respectable. They are now at this work. In the Second Assem bly district of Middlesex county, N. J., the Cops have hit the nail exactly on the head by nominating Col. Jones, late of the rebel army, for the Assembly. He will undoubt edly poll the entire Democratic vote of the district; and his election will make a prece dent for restoring traitors to other and higher positions in the Government. "Another War." Major Cooper, of the Clarksburg Conservative, boasted the other day that there would be another war in fifty days, and that he would fight for Jcffi'Davis. A soldier standing by remark ed that if we were to have war in fifty days, it might as well begin within fifty minutes, and suiting the action to the word, he knocked the "Major" down. Upon rising, Cooper made at the soldier, who repeated the dose, and was proceeding to finish the job in the most approved style, when the bystanders interfered, and brought the affair to a close. The Reason Why ?- The Roman Cath olic paper,' the Union, gives a curious ver son i of the reasons which induced Rattazzi to have Garibaldi arrested. The minister, says that paper, was perfectly aware that in laying handstn Garibaldi the movement a gainst Rome would not be prevented. Be sides this, Rattazzi, aware of the dangers of the enterprise, wished to save the General and hinder risking his life. The election of Governor Brownlow to the United States Senate secures another Radical in that high legislative body. The Copperheads are very much horrified at the result. "Washington City Gossip. The lobby business is becoming a regular bore, swindle and disgrace to all who do bu siness with either the Exeoutive and Legis lative branches of the Government at Wash ington. .Things have come to such a condi tion that it is next to impossible to have the least important business transacted with the Departments without first hiring one of the suckers called lobbyists. Lcgislation,by some sort of hocus pocus, is controlled by these creatures, who block up every avenue to Congress. And what is so humiliating is the fact that most of these men are ignorant and abandoned iu character, who could not iufluence a business transaction in commer cial or manufacturing circles involving a dol lar. Yet these lobbyists can control busi ness of all kinds before the Government. They frequently enlarge or decrease appro priations as their interest may demand. It is time that the press of all parties call at tention to this most disgraceful influence, that the people may be able to devise the way to destroy it. The return of the Philadelphia banks to the Comptroller of the Currency shows that they have a reserve of $19,000,000, being $6,000,000 in excess of the amount requir ed by law. It is not to the credit of the whiskey man ufacturing business, that it ha3 so often been found connected with frauds upon the revenue. Smuggling, in the whiskey line, has prevailed in this and otbocxpuntries to a large extent, whenever it would pay. It is a testimony to the strength of two appe titesthe love of money and the love of driuk. The evasion of the tax is not enly a fraud on the Government, but a wrong to every tax-payer. If the excise law was hon ored by the distillers universal!', the effect would be to shorten very materially the era of heavy taxation, as the debt would the sooner be paid off and the burden of taxa tion be removed. The condition of Western National banks, as shown by abstracts compiled from their quarterly reports received at the office of the Comptroller of the Currency.isup to the required standard, arM this is also the case in regard to the National Banks in all other sections of the country. The reserves spe cified by the act of Congress have been met in ail cases, while in some instauces the av erage is considerably over the requirements of the lav.'. The monthly statement of the debt for October will thow a contraction of -thirty millions in the currency.' Fractional currency printed last week, is $572,320; shipped, $572,644; Nat'l Bank currency issued, $24,890 ; currency redeem ed and destroyed, $337,800. Receipts of customs for the week ending Oct. 10th, $2,895,76S. . j The work on the impeachment testimony is progressing at the Government printing office, and twelve or fifteen pages are daily put in type. The whole work will be com pleted by the last of November. Great care is taken not to let it be made public, and as each sheet is finished it is locked up. No one is allowed to be near the press upon which it is printed, and the compositors engaged in putting it in type, it is said, are sworn to secrecy. The official information received at the Indian Bureau, from Kausas, is to the ef fect that both the commissioners and the In dians now assembled at Medicine Lodge Creek think that the council will result in a lasting peace. The commissioners will not be able to hold a council at the Upper Platte until Nov. 10th. It is believed that the House committee appointed to inquire whether the present government of Maiyland is such a republi can government as is required by the Con s' itution, have collected some extraordinary testimony. That delectable despct, "Gov. Swann," will appear iu several new and in tercsting characters. Counterfeiting as a Science. Science and mechanical ingenuity have their bad uses as well as their good. It is not pleas ant to think that the art of counterfeitinz has been brought to such perfection that even experts and banking institutions cannot decide between the genuine and the spurious issues of Government paper. And if Seven-Thirties can be thus skillfully counter feited, why may not all others with eaual uccess? In fact, this seems to be an age of counteneitiDg. ine iooa we eat, tne bev erages we drink, the clothes we wear, are in many cases mere counterfeit present-, ments. Half of the articles in use whether for luxury or necessity, if t hey could speak, could say with Iago: "I am not what I am." Even the fair ladies that delight our eves on the promenade in the drawing roomj at the opera, are half made up of counterfeits. The roses on their cheeks, the lillies on their brows, the marble of their bosoms, all, all counterfeits. Their ebon tresses counter feit the hue of gold, and their golden locks counterfeit the raven's wing. There is nothing real not even money. A Prediction. Senator Wilson, at a political meeting held on Monday, October 21st at Marlboro, Mass., after reciting the predictions he had made at different times, and their more than fulfillment, then stated that General Grant would be elected Presi dent by the votes of not less than thirty States, and would be supported by a two thirds majority of both Houses of Congress. The ever loyal white men, the repentant rebels, and the six hundred thousand en franchised colored men are to reconstruct the Southern States, and send a majority of Republican Senators and Representatives to Washington. - Two women, the first who have made the attempt, reached the.top of Mount Hood this summer. Farming: in Minnesota. We find an account of a farm of 2.000 acres, owned and worked by Mr. O. Dalrymple, of Cottage Grove, Washington county, Minnesota. It is divided into three farme tht urant, the Sherman, and the Sheridan farms. In the first are 1000 acres, cf which 20 acres are in one field, inclosed with a board fence. On the several farms ars sets of building9 to ac commodate 100 men, and about the same number of horses. v heat was grown the firat season on 1,700 acres. During harvest 150 acres were cut per day. The yield was an average of 25 bushels per acre, or 42,500 bushels in all, which, at $1 50, yielded $63, 700. It is not only safe to say that this is the largest yield of wheat given to any man in the United States this year, but probably the most profitable of any crop produced for the same time in any State. Mr. Dalrymple was not only reimbursed for the original out lay of land, houses, labor, seed, fences, im plements, horses, etc but had a clear profit of at least $20,000. This sample of fann ing in Minnesota is an evidence of the abil ity of the Northwest to Fupply a full ehare to the measure of abundance required for the march of empire which "westward takes its way." - - Unfortunate, but Very Jolly. A colored philosopher called Cato was arres ted in Nashville for robbing a clothing store, and sent to jail to await trial. As the offi cers were approaching to arrest him, Cato was heard to say to himself in an audible tone, "Dar is something rotten here, I's got cotched up, I's been selling clo's too cheap, some nigger's been sayin somethin, a color ed pussin couldn't throw a tater out with out some hog pickin it up. " After his. ar rest he seemed very much amused, aad remarked to the officers, "I thought diswas what you came here for." He sang out to hi wife, "Good by, Lizzie, I'm gwine to make a short trip to the penumtenshary, guess I won't be back anymore dis winter, you will hab to get smebody to take care ob you, come to der iail to see me some time." He went off with his officers with as jolly an air as if he were going to a feast. He confessed the crime in the same spirit. When last seen there was a broad grin on his phk, as he wended his way toward the jaiL The Todd Family. Mrs. Lincoln's brothers, as is known, were in the Confed erate army. The youngest of them started in April, 1861, fionvNew Orleans as a pri vate in the chaseurs a Pied, and being dis charged for sickness at Richmond, in Octo ber of the saoii; year returned to his home ; but, though still suffering in health, be left a wife and two babies to join the Crescent regiment, in response to Beauregard's call, and fell at Shiloh. Another, Captain Da vid Todd, started with Colonel Tom Taylor, of the First Kentucky Volunteers, and was killed toward the end of the war. And third. Dr. Todd served throughout as a dis tinguished surgeon. Rebels Rejoicing. When intelligence of the Pennsylvania and Ohio elections reached Montgomery, Alabama, the old I rish news agent there ran along the streets witlr the morning papers, singing out, "Good news for the rebels ! eood news for the rebels! the best I have had since the time they defeated the Yankees during the war !' and in Montgomery, as in all the other cities, thetnon who had been fighting against the Union were as exultant over the victories of the Copperheads of Ohis and Pennsylvania as if these victories had been affected by their own ballots. "Democratic Victories." It turns out that Democratic victories are scarce out West. Indiana did as well as last year ; I owa did well enough as 20,000 is near enough to 30,000 for all practical purposes. Nebraska and Colorado have given hand some ; Republican gains. The loss of a Sen ator in California and Ohi will be made up by the admission of Colorado with two Re publican Senators. This state of things is discouraging to the Democratic party. They cannot yet afford to elect Val. to the Senate, or to nominate Pen. for President. Italy. From Italy we may infer we shall hear stirring news before long. The men of action have apparently made good their name, and, at all events, have done some thing that the government is afraid to: have known. Napoleon, by hi late movements, has intimated his intention to iuterfere, if interference is necessary for the security of the Pope, and the world will await anxious-, ly the tilt of the Emperor with Citizen Garibaldi. Will he be more fortunate than in his encounter with his other uncrowned antagonist, Minister Bismark? A Heavier Verdict. In the Court of Common Pleas of Lancaster County, on Thursday, Jacob R. Goodman obtained a verdict for $9,150 against the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. This suit wa3 brought by the plaintiff for the recovery of damages for the loss of his wife, who was killed while crossing the Pennsylvania Railroad in a carriage, with her husband near Landis ville about two years ago. At a former tri al, $7,500 was allowed as damages. The new trial was granted at the instance of the railroad company. Not Likely. The minor topics of the limes gives some reasons against the prob ability of Jeff. Davis being tried the wit nesses are dead or scattered, the papers are lost, and it is doubtful whether the Judge or jury would know Davis if tliey tcere to see him. If this last were a bar, there would be few criminal trials. Judges are not apt to have culprits in the circle of their ac quaintances Schools IN the South. The Buckhan on Advocate says : "Over thirty new school houses are to be opened to the little folks of our country this winter. We sincerely hope that our school officers will see. that these houses are furnished with efficient teachers and filled with pupils. We hail the open ing of these houses as a most auspicious o men, full of brightest promises for the fu ture. Accident. A most singular accident oc cured at the Hoosic tunnel works on Saturday a-week. The gasoline works at the mouth exploded and burned, the burning ruins and debrio falling down the shaft burying and suffocating the whole gang of workmen, thirteen in alL The bodies were not recov ered for some time. : , The nomination of Grant for President springs right from the Republican popular heart. None of the camp followers were allowed to have a band in it. A New Device. A New Yorker has in vented a little attachment to a carriage by which, in case the horses run away, the tra ces may be loosened, ard the frightened an- ! imals may run as hard as thev p'ease, while the carriage will he left behind in safety. The device is Mid to be so simple that it ix a marvel that it was not previously discov ered. A Chicaooism. In Chicago, recently, a man who had been enjoying a little too much liquid happiness, fell into an unfin ished sewer, where he was found v by a po liceman, singing that he wanted to bean angel. The Justice before whom he was brought fined him five dollars for being drunk, and six for damaging the sewer. GRANT. The name of Grant fills the at mosphere from Maine to California, and the people who prayed that he might win while he battered and stormed away at legion of rebels, now turn to him as their leader, to guide our country out of the difficulties left by rebellion.
