CLEARFIELD, PA., APRIL 29, 1868.
' ; . WhiteJen LMafranchised.
' .The Copperhead Legislature of Ohio, is
determined that Republicans shall never a
gaid acquire power in that State if legisla
tion can , prevent it. Hence they begin at
the root of Republicanism the institutions
of learning and . enact that "no - pupil of
any .school, college, or seminary, whatever
be his age or qualifications, shall be per
mitted to vote, unless his parents actually
reside in the county and township ' where
the collegers situated." It is estimated that
by this act nearly ten thousand students will
be deprived of their right to vote.' The
majority of them are young men who are
preparing for the various professions, and
whose student life must continue for a peri
od of years, during all of which time they
are to be deprived of the privilege of Amer
ican citizens. - - ' r
Upon the announcement of the passage
of this most iniquitous and unjust law, the
disfranchised students of the Ohio Wesley
an University met and adopted a series of
resolutions denouncing the bill "as a great
injustice to college students,a gross insult to
intellectual culture, a palpable violation of
the fundamental principles of all good gov
ernment, and as being to enlightened hu
manity, execrable, painful, humiliating and
too contemptable to contemplate ;" and
they take the bill to be "expressive of the
acknowledged fact that college students, as
a body.are not known to vote with the pres
ent dominant party in the Legislature, and
that institutions of learning are antagonistic
to the principles and ' teachings of that
party." " "
The action of a Democratic Legislature in
disfranchising white men, is a fit commentary
on the loud professions of the leaders of that
party in ' favor 6f a "white : man's govern
ment."y It is, moreover, a significant con
fession that the greatest ' enemy of Copper
" head Iemeeracy, is enlightened education.
IgnQrance bigotry, superstition, whiskey
aad fraud ' are the five grand elements of
democratic success.' Without these the par
ty would cease to exists No wonder, there
fore, that the copperhead Solons of Ohio
should seek to perpetuate the first and
most Important by legislation. j They, have
nothing to expect from schools and colleges
but disaster and defeat . Intelligent stu
dents are not the material to. vote on forged
naturalization papers. They cannot be driv
en up to the polls, as sheep to the shambles,
and sold; to the highest bidder like the
"poor whites", in the southern counties of
Delaware and Maryland, among whom a news
pap sr or spelling book is a curiosity; ' They,
are not the kind of persons' who inhabit the
purlieus of Bedford Street and the Five
Points, and march up annually out of their
squaloA fiin and wretchedness, to' vote the
Democratic ticket. Why, therefore,ahould
they be permitted to vote at all? ;
;' '' 'Sneaks." -
The Loci: Ilaven Democrat calls the mem
bers vt the "Grand army of the Republic"
Sneaks. During the war,' while the cop
perheads "sneaked" off to Canada, and to
hiding places in the fastnesses of the forests
and mountains, these same members of the
Grand Army of the Republic were at the
front, baring their breasts to the fierce shock
of battle, in defence of the national flag.
The "sneaks" are the men who eluded the
draft, who constantly cried "the -war is a
failure," who uniformly placed every obsta
cle in the way of the Government, and who
sympathised with the enemies of their coun
try. .They possessed all the meanness, trea
son, and! hatred of liberty that ' character
ized the Tories of the Revolution,- but were
wanting in their courage. It ill becomes such
creatures to stigmatize the brave soldiers
who crushed out.the rebellion, as "sneaks."
Th Democracy. The La Crosse Dem
ocrat, Brick PomereyVpaper, which by the
way has an exteueive circulation in this lo
cality.says "it devolves on Democratic jour
nals and speakers to warn the people against
the Satanic - white .nigger. . mobs, lenown as
Christian associations ,Jaid aeeieties.raaisaion
clubs,' etc' Democrats, avoid : them as you
would the plague." The advice is quite un
necessary, af there is no danger of tire slight
teat affinity between ' Copperhead Democra
cy and anything that has the name ."Chris

Visible Admixture.
Our friend Goodlander--either from a
sense of .his own frailty and weakness, or
that of his party friends uniformly man
ifests great solicitude on the subject ot "a
malgamatioh" by printing all cases of the
kind that fall under his notice. j That he
may not be deprived of a good opportunity
of "spreading" himself on his favorite top
ic, we copy the following case from the Lew
istown Gazette of April 22d, 1868, for his
especial benefit and contemplation :
"We learn that considerable excitement
exists up the river, caused by the marriage
of a young "democrat" to a mulatto girl,
who strange to say, was married by a "dem
ocrat" so that the whole affair is a demo
cratic proceeding, probably adopted to carry
out their views of a white man's govern
ment. This is the third instance of practi
cal amalgation of late years in this county,
and curiously enoagh in every case the par
ties were democrats. The only voter in this
county tinctured with Etheopian blood is
also a democrat, and is as regularly march
ed up to the polls as a horse to his rack
without an objection from the white democ
racy." , . '
Mifflin county does not stand alone in
this respect. The 'same state of facts, we
are reliably informed, exists in Clearfield.
It is said that in Lawrence township a col
ored "Democrat," who is married to a white
woman, invariably presents himself at every
election, and is permitted by that straight
"Democratic" board on which the Repub
licans are not even permitted to have an In
spectorto vote the Copperhead ticket. In
Karthaus township, we ' are informed, a
prominent "Democratic" politician brought
up several of the "colored individuals" re
siding along the river, and insisted strenu
ously on their right to vote because of their
white skin and the payment of taxes ; but the
Republican offic era on the board refused to
permit them to vote.and contested the point
so strenuously, that the attempt was finally,
but reluctantly, abandoned.
When "niggers" vote the Copperhead
ticket, and go into the army as substitutes
for Copperheads, they smell as fragrant as
"new mown hay," and their shins are as
straight and their heels as short as those of
the Chairman of the Democratic State Cen
tral Committee or any body else. But let
it be supposed that they are going to vote
the Republican ticket, and lo ! their stench
is great in "Democratic" , nostrils their
shins and heels show them to be nothing
but a higher order of Gorillas, and they are
utterly unfit to go to the polls with white
men t . There is a wonderful magic in prin
ters ink, but that the infinitesimal quantity
contained on a ballot, should work so aston
ishing a transformation, and so seriously af
reet the ' Democratic senses, instinct, per
ceptions, and feelings, is one of the things
that remain to be accounted for in aesthetic
philosophy.- .-, ,
t GUILTY. Whatever may , be the judg
ment of the High Court before whieh An
drew Johnson is now on trial, the verdict of
History is already rendered and recorded.
It matters little with what technical offences
he may be charged, or of how many of them
he may be found guilty, his great, grand,
leading crime the crime that will render
his name forever - infamous is that in the
final struggle with : the rebellion, he went
over to the enemy, lending to the rebels, in
the .last great contest as to the terms on
which their hostility should ! cease and they
should resume their places in the govern
ment, all the power and influence of his ad
ministration, thereby obstructing in the most
injurious manner the pacification of the
country, after a desolating war, when every
public and private interest demanded that
civil disorder should cease, and that ihe re
bellious states should be reconstructed in
conformity with the will of the loyal people
of the land. ' -
'Truth will Out. In the New, York
Legislature while a bill to suppress obscene
books, paper, ect, was Under discussion.Mr'
Patrick Keady Copperhead Representative
from Kings County, opposed the passage of
the bill on the ground that a luw against
obscene publications was an attack on the
Democratic press ! And he was right. The
enactment of such a law would wipe out one
half the Copperhead organs. What could be
more obscene and blasphemous than the
La Crosse Democrat, which has the largest
circulation of any Democratic paper in the
country? No man who does not want his
children debauched and contaminated. an
suffer such a sheet to go into his house.

Poor Comport. The Copperheads are
rejoicing over . what they call a victorv in

come, as far as we are concerned, to enjoy
all the fruits of the victory.

Decision in Bankruptcy.
CLEARFIELD COUNTY CASK.
The Pittsburgh papers contain the report
of an important decision in Bankruptcy, in
a case from this county. Many of our read
ers will remember that several months ago
John S. Radebaugh made sale of his store
and tavern stand known as "The Blue Ball."
Messrs. Burns & S mucker and Hazard &
Smith, of Philadelphia, had claims in the
hands of counsel here, for collection. They
alleged that the sale thus made was in fraud
of the Bankrupt Law. and filed a petition to
force Radebaugh into "Involuntary Bank
ruptcy." It will be seen that their petition
was dismissed, at their own costs, on a ques
tion of jurisdiction. The following report
of the case is taken from the -Pittsburgh
Gazette, of April 23rd f 5 ! 1 : V
In February last Messrs. Burns & S muck
er, of Philadelphia, filed a petition asking
that John S. Radebaugh, of West Decatur,
Clearfield county, be adjudged a bankrupt
In answer to the petition of the creditors the
respondent claimed that he was not indebted
to them to the amount fixed by law, and
therefore asked that the petition be dismiss
ed. This motion was argued at length by
T. J. Keenan, L. L. D., of this city, for the
crediter3,and H. B. Swoopo, Esq., of Clear
field for the respondent. Yesterday Judge
M'Candless delivered the opinion of the
Court, as follows : .
'The aggregate of the debt, provable un
der the Bankrupt Law, upon which a cred
itor, or a combination of creditors, can com
pel a debtor into Bankruptcy, must be not
less than two hundred and fifty dollars. In
this case the petitioners are Burns & Smuck
er, who obtained a judgment in the Court
of Common Pleas of Clearfield county.upon
an award of arbitrators, for the sum of $u86
71. Upon Fi Fa issued, which reached the
hands of the Sheriff on the 5th of October,
1867, he realized from the sale of personal
property, $147 70. Subsequent to the date
of issue of this execution, Hazard & Smith
ued out theirswhich was received by the
Sheriff on the 16th day of October, 1867, five
days after he had made his levy at the suit
of Burns & Smucker, and three days before
the day fixed for the sale. The levy on the
first writ was endorsed on the second, and
the attorneys for the judgment creditors be
ing the same, have assumed to make an ap
propriation of the proceeds of sale, different
from what is made by law. It is not pre
sumed that this was done to force an unfor
tunate debtor into bankruptcy, for, in this
Court, such a proceeding would not be tol
erated, but rather, to make a distribution
among clients, whose respective interests
they felt authorized to protect What the
Sheriff made by his writs, being applicable
to the first execution received by him, the
judgment of Burns & Smucker is reduced
to an amount which, upon their application
alone, deprives us of jurisdiction. . The pe
tition is dismissed &t the cost of the petition
ing creditors.
Progress cf Impeachment.
, On Wednesday, the 22d, Mr. Bou'twell,
on the; part of the people, commenced his
argument in favor of impeachment, which
he concluded on Thursday. It was a mas
terly effort, conclusively establishing John
son's guilt. ; Vt7 ..;,tt ;:- . (
At twenty minutes past two, on Thursday,
Mr. Nelson took the floor, on behalf of "the
President," but did not conclude until 12
o'clock" on Friday. His whole argument
partook of the character of a political stump
speech, especially resembling the harangues
of Mr. Johnson. ' : 'l ' '
. On Saturday, Mr. Groesbeck; one of the
President's counsel, made his argument. It
is a Itrong andj. creditable effort, considering
the weakness of the cause which he advoca
ted.' i i: ' : , ' '
' Manager Stevens was the first speaker on
Monday. He read from printed slips. As
soon as ho commenced the chamber became

and in the galleries paid.the. strictest atten

ed the remaining -pages to Geri.T Butler to
reaa ior mm... . j ,
Manager Williams followed... He spoke
until the adjournment, and would conclude
yesterday.. ; .;!" '
Mr. Evarts will close the case to-day for
the President, followed to-morrow by Mr.
Bingham, who may also occupy a part of the
day after. The issues will then be for the
decision of the Senate.
Copprhead Economy. The Democrat

tion expenses, $105,000 ; county officers,
$112,000; printing, $125,000; salaries, $788,
000. Most of the appropriations for the
present year, exceed those of 1864. mare

. . The Philadelphia Fraud..
Philadelphia Democracy grows jubilant
over the decision of the Court of Common
Pleas in the late city contested election ca
Bes, and those nondescript- publications
which call themselves Democratic newspa
pers chuckle as if in some way the interests
of the party had been vindicated or bolster
ed up. Just the opposite is the effect of the
judgment of the court. Frauds systemat
ic, unblushing, and deliberate are proven
to have been committed by the organized
agencies of the Democratic party. The o-
Sinion of the court may be briefly put thus:
hat while gigantic frauds were clearly
shown to have been deliberately perpetra
ted, it was not affirmatively and specifically
proven that enough fraudulent votes were
cast to change the issue. It will not do,
however, to accept one portion of the decis
ion and reject the rest. The decree of Sat
urday twhile it confirms the seats of the dem
ocratic candidates, fixes on the Democratio
party frauds of the most shameless and
criminal nature outrages which the hon
est and honorable men of the party.at least,
should feel themselves called on to denounce
and disown. It is not likely, however, that
they will. The party lash in the Democrat
ic organization stifles even a murmur. The
slaves dare not so much as protest. . It
might be well now to investigate whether
the organized corruption and violence, es
tablished by the judgment of the court, can
be traced in this, as in the Centre-county
case, to Mr. Wallace's State Kuklux com
mittee. 1'ress..

Wnr is it? Whilst it is generally conce
ded that the production of the precious me
tals is in excess of the demands of Ameri
can and European markets, the question
may be asked, why then.does their price not
cheapen? A reason for the continuous de
mand may be found in the fact that Asia is
a constant absorbent of these metals, espe
cially silver. Plinj described it as "the Sink
of Silver;" and to this day she has lost
none of her reputation. The skilled work
ers )f India and China import nearly all
their silver, and, as each importation redu
ces the price to them, it also gives them op
portunity to extend its uses. So long as the
nations of Christendom continue to carry
away f rom the East costly cargoes of teas,
silks and rice, the drainage of silver must
continue.
