CLEARFIELD, PA., PEC. 9, 1S6S.
Oar Electoral College.
Twenty-six Republican Electors of this
Common wealth as.e.nbled at Harri-burg on
Wednesday, December 2, 1S6S, all present.
Hon. T. M. Marshall of Allegheny, was se
lected to preside, accepting the honor in a
brief but pertinent address which recogni
sed the printiple of L berty under the Law
a the secured fruit of the recent political
struggle. After prayer by Rev. Mr. Mitch
ell, a Committee was appointed to wait up
on the Governor, and pending this report,
the subordinate officers of the College were
selected. The G overnor then coirniumca
ted the names of the chosen Electors, duly
certified by Secretary Jordan, after which
the College proceeded to ballot, and the en
tire Tote was successively cast for President
Grant and Vice President Colfax. Cenifi
cates thereof were prepared in triplicate and
feigned by all the the Electors, ODe copy to
be delivered at Washington, being entrus
ted to J. S. Rutan; amther, to be deliv
ered to Judge Cadwalkder, U. S. Judge
for the Eastern District, at Philadelphia,
was entrusted to J. II. Bringhurst, and a
third copy to be deposited in the Harrishurg
Postoffice for traus-uiksion to Washington by
niail.was delivered for that purpose to B. F.
Wagonseller. These three messengers were
also Electors. This terminated the legal busi
ness of the College, which was then disso).
Ted. The proceedings were marked by a
grave and dignified decorum, entirely in
keeping with a proper official expression of
the will of nearly six hundred and fifty thou
aaud voters of a great Commonwealth.
The Sight Spirit.
Judge Field, of Trenton, New Jersey,
Beems to have the "back bone" to meet
the question of naturalization frauds.in the
right spirit. He does not view the issuing
of fraudulent papers with the leniency
which forms such a remarkable feature in
the rulings of New Vork and Pennsylvania
Judges. In Judge Field's opinion, "it
constitutes one the most stupendous crimes,"
and strikes at the very foundations of all
free institutions. When a man charged
with using fraudulent papers was bioaght
before him recently, and his counsel endeav
ored to obtain a reduction in his bail, he re
fused to entertain the application, refused
to discharge the party accused on a writ of
habeas corpus, and remanded him to jail.
Did other judges pursue a stuul.tr course,
we should have less charges of wholesale po
litical frauds, and the ballot would be what
it pretends to be, the channel through
which the public expresses its approval or
disapproval of everything relatiug 10 the
Government.
Progress of the Revolution.
Late advices from Cuba state that the In
surgents had destroyed the aqueduct which
supplies Santiago de Cuba with water, and
were besiegiog the town of Mar.zauiilo. San
tiago and Manzauillo are amoug the most
importan t towns of the Island, and the prob
ability of both falling into the hands of the
insurants is the mast conclusive proof that
the insurrection is gaining ground. Trade
at llavaana has become entirely stagnant,
and the merchants are unwilling to make ad
vances to planters on their crops.

Colorado. The Republican of Colora
do ask that their Territory be admitted as
a State on such terms as Congress may im
pose. The opposition desire to dictate tbe
terms. It is not difficult to see which will
win.
Swi.iT Awat. The unfortunate railroad
bridge at Omaha has again been swept away,
thirty six hours after iu completion. Five
hundred freight cars, however, passed over
it before its exit.
Ricpostkv that E. A. Pollard, author
of the "Lost Cnse," hat been appointed
to a clerkship in the New York Custom

jority. "Pity tbe sorrows of a poor old

The Incoming Administration.
As the official career of Andrew Johnson
draws nearer to an end, do little interest is
being manifested respecting the formation
of a Cabinet, and the line ot policy that
will be pursued by the new President. The
Democracy are flatterinf themselves with
the idea that he will ignore the "Radicals,"
and will refuse to consult even the more
moderate Republicans in matters pertain
ing to his Administration of the Govern
ment. TIiiV is a vain hope-; for if there is
any one future event more certain than an
other, it is that Geu. Grant will act in per
fect harmony with the party that elected
him, and Iu selecting his official advisors,
will take men who enjoy its fullest confidence.
That a proper regard will be paid to the
States from which the latter will be chosen,
is also tut a rea.-oiiu't.le expectation. The
pre-eminence that was given to the October
contest in Pennsylvania, the healthy influ
ence our victory at that time exerted up
on the general remit in November, and the
lact that her vote wili be the largest east
for Giant in the electoral college, are cir
cumstances which render it almost certain
that she will be represented in the Cabinet.
What particular position will be conceded
to her, is not known, but the opinion pre
vails that it will be the Postmaster General
ship. Should this be the case, we are con
strained to s:iy that Hon. Edward M'
Piikhsox, will not rank second among the
host of good meu we could nauio for the
positions Mr. M'Phcrson has a national
reputation of an enviable character. lie
was a member of the Thirty sixth, and also
of the Thirty seventh Congress, during
which time his course was highly satisfacto
ry to his party friends. At the expiration
of his sei ond term, he was appointed depu
ty Cmi);is.-ionfr of Internal Revenne, and
on the assembling of the Thirty-eighth
Consrcss, was chosen Clerk of the House,
where his efficiency and popularity have
kept bm ever since. It will doubtless be
remembered that in 1865. under the Opera
Mi ,n P r V. 11.1 T - .
vi iuu su cmieu x rovistonal Uovern
ments. the Rebel States elected Representa
tives to Congress, and that the most intense
interest prevailed among the loyal people as
to the action of tlic Clerk in the premises.
Mr. M'Pherson did not falter from his
plain duty, but bravely breasted the storm,
refused to enter their names upon thn rolls,
and by so doing relieved the country from
untold- embarrassments and dangers for
had these bogus members been once admit
ted, the requisite two-thirds n ajority could
not have been procured to expel them, and
through their illegal votes the Congression
al plan of Beconstrucnion would have been
thwarted. Hence, it is obvious that Mr.
M'Phcrsoii's record is of the best descrip
tion. . Nor docs he lack in any of the busi
ness qualifications that are requisite to the
position. He has had a large expcritn:e
with public affairs at the National Capitol,
is familiar with the routine and regulations
of the several Departments, and has that
systematic tendency of mind, well practice 1
in the examination of details and com pi! a
tion of facts and figures, which is peculiarly
adapted to an intelligent and successful su-pervii-iou
of our complicated postal service.
Believing that he would make not only an
eScieut officer, but that his selection will j
prove satisfactory to the Republican party
of Pennsylvania, we trust the p: oper steps
will be taken to secure his appointment as
Postmaster General.
Eepnblican Fairness.
Charleston, South Carolina, recently gave
an exhibition of fair dealing in politics,
which is quite refreshing in these days of
stupendous frauds upon the ballot-box. Af
ter a trial of two weeks, the result in the re
cent municipal election was declared null
and void. Of the merits of the contest we
know nothing, and will not attempt to pro
nounce upou them only desiring to recall
the fact that the tribunal which pronounc
ed the decision was a lie publican Board of
Councils, and that they declared against the
election of a Republican ticket. We com
mend this self-sacrificing spirit to Demo
!Ciat'C trib"n:,,s aI1 over tbe hnJ' which
rather tuan sacrifice their party triumphs
however obtained, fly into the teeth of law,
principle and morals. No scruples are re
garded in paving the way for their successes
by torgery, fraud and crime, and no stone
is loft uuturned to secure the fruits of their
ignomy. Had the tribunal and the case
been reversed in Cbarle-ton. think you a
similar verdict would have been rendered
on the same evidence? Ey no means. The
Democratic fouut of justice is miserable sel
fishness. Fort La fayette. Nothing remains now
of Fort Lafayette bnt a ruined mass of
brick and mortar it having been destroyed
by fire on December 1st. During the con
flagration a number of shells exploded, but
no personal injury was sustained thereby.
The magazine temains intact. The loss to
the government is about $250,000.
Dows o.v "Nickels." It is said that
t, tt:.j o.. t .
" uuiicu amies ireisorer tnreatens war
fare against some of the nickel coins, and
the Postoffice Department against the rest
of them. Then, farewell nickels; your
days are numbered, and you will soon be
anion? the things that were.
Sheridan and the Indians.
Sheridan rides again. The boldest and
best cavalry leader ot our army has started
on a campaign against the Indians. Thus
far every attempt to reduce these wild men
to decent behaviour has failed. Good sol
diers have lost their laurels iu this unprom
i-ing field, and, so ugly is the problem, that
there is perhaps no other m in in the army
but Sheridan who would really covet the re
sponsibility of solving jt. In winter any
camf aign is almost as impossible, for us as
for them. In summer they fly on their fleet
horses fasler than any cavalry can follow.
Laying up their stock of provisions in their
encampments, before the sommer season
fairly begins, they are as haughty and inde
pendent as an I ndian can be. The only way
to cripple them, as Sheridan sees, is to cut
off their supplies, by destroying their villa
ges and their stock in winter. The attempt
involves great fatigue to the soldiers who
participate, and much rit-k ; but one suc
cessful campaign in winter will do more to
cruh Indian hostilities than a dozen in
summer.
Everybody will follow Sheridan's new ex
pedition with interest. He has about three
thousand men, and part of them ant expo
rienccd borderers. He has with hiiu such
Generals as Sully and Custer, and his own
training ha been in part in Indian warfare.
He is pushing toward the Indian encamp
ments with his known energy and rapidity,
and though croakers prophesy evil of his un
dertaking, we already have the new of a
victory over a band of Indians, thus having
dune more than any other General has ever
done to prevent the chronic warfare which
harasses our western border.
The Cost of Indian Wars.
The Black Hawk war in 1S31 32 cost
about $5,000,000 and 4.000 lives. The Sem
inol war lasted seven years, and cot $100,
000,000 and 15.000 lives. The Indians num
btred less than a thousand warriors. Some
of them, were moved away, and about 300
.still remain in the everglades. The Creek
war cost $1,000,000. The Sioux war in
1852 co.t $4J.OO ,000 and 300 lives. In
1SC4 a Cheyenne and Sioux war co.-t $00.
00 ,c00 and I 000 lives. In 1867 there vu9
anoi her Chcyeune war, which has cost $10. -000,000,
and is not j et settled. On the Pa
cific slope, during the last twenty years, In
dian outbreaks have cost in the asgregate
SCOO-CoO-iKM). Iu New Mexico Territory,
since we acquired it, three cauipaignsagain.-i
the Navajoes have cost $30,000,000. In
dian troubles on a - mall scale in some of the
r Utes and Territories, wih the expenses
growing out ot a war, the claims for de
struction of private property, will make our
Indian troubles foot up nearly $1,000,000,
000 during the last forty years. At the rate of
progress made in the Seminole war, ii
would cost, to exterminate the Indians, $1,
000. 00t .000, the lives of 37.000 people, and
the employment of 100,000, troops for ten
years.

A Constantinople letter to tlie New York
Herald gives an account of the senttiueut
entertained by the Tuiki.-h government and
people for the Uuited States and their anx
iety about the policy this country may pursue
toward the Ottoman Empire. TheTurki.-h
government appreciates the greatness and
lower f l-ie American Repub!ic,and seeing
no probable cause for any serious difficulty
between the two countries, it is de-irous of
maintaining most friendly relations, and of
disabusing tbe public mind here of any er
roneous impressions with retard to Turkey.
The charter election for Mayor and Cor
poration Counsel of New York city took
place on Tuesday of last week. The Re
publican nominations were Col. Frederiik
A. Conkling for Mayor and Donnan B.
Eaton for Corporation Counsel. They were
opposed by A. Oakey Hal! and Richard O'
Gorman. Hall was elected by 54 000 major
ity, and O'Gornian was also elected. As the
Republicans had no expectation of rarrying
the city they do not feel disappointed.
The bee raisers in the vi inity of Louts
ville, for a circuit of twenty-five miles, were
recently startled by the discovery that their
bees had all simultaneously decamped. going
no one knew whither. The rojstery is still
unsolved. The deserted hives were all full
of honey, containing from sixty to sevet.ty
five pounds each. The opinion of a major
ity of the bee raisers was that the unusual
mildness of the season deluded the bees into
their mysterious migration.
At White Pine, Nevada, lumps of silver
ore are used as a circulating medium, and
are found to answer very well in the absence
of a sufficiency of coin. Even at the gam
ing table ore is used. The kind of ore em
ployed is the pure chloride, which is so rieli
as to be quite malleable. A miner with a
sack of this kind of currency under his arm
marches up to a faro table, takes out a piece
and plants it on a card, calling its value as
he puts it down.
It is a proof of the absurdity of much of
the current Cabinet making, that Gen. Grant
has already received letters advising him to
appoint both Robert H Lee and Horatio
Seymour to positions iu his Cabinet, for the
reason that it would, in the opinions of the
writers have a very harmonising and molli
fying effect upon the people who opposed
his election.
The population of Great Britain seems to
be nearly at a stand still. The latest official
returns give England twenty one millions,
Ireland five millions, and Scotland three
millions. In the United States the popula

that in a few years it will very likely double
that of Great Britain.

Attorney General Evarts has given his
official opinion that the recent etht hour
law passed by Congress cannot determine
the price to be paid for a day's labor, which
must be mea.-urcd by its value the fame as
a bushel of corn or an ounce of gold. It is
probable that this elemental principle of
law was well known and understood by the
!eai.-lators when they passed the bill. As a
bulk of them afe lawyers, it would be a re
flection on their professional character to
presume otherwise. Congress is just about
to sit again, and if the Attorney General in
deciding on what they did say has wranged
their inteiiiion, they can rectify the matter
by another act.

Phil. Sheridan concurs with Gen. Sher
man that the In lian busiuiss should be un

Many of the Democratic office holdersan
tiiipated their retention by the new Presi
dent. To those who know anything of
Gen. Grant, such an idea seems absurd. His
nature is positive, not negative. Ho is a
cordial hater when neccssary,as well as an ar
dent friend. Moreover, Grant has no faith
in the Democrats. In private conversation
he i-peaks of them habitually as "copper
heads." Said a f-iend to him recently, 'Geu-e-al,
I see the Democratic papers are claim
ing you as their President." "Ah!" said
Grant, "I never see them now nor lead
them. The last Democratic paper I saw
bad an e Jitorial denouncing me as a drunk
ard." Under a recent Act of Congress, the mem
bers of the XLI.st Congress will organize
their House on the 4th day of March next,
instead of deferrii g it to December as before
the passage of that Act. This will ensure
seasonable action upon the constitutional
claims of Maryland and Kentucky to an ex
cessive representation, in case that question
should be ignored at the preceding session.
A grand enterprise is recomiueuded in a
letter writen by General Rosencrans. He
proposes a railroad from El Paso, in the val
ley of the Rio Grande, to a point on the
Rio Colorado, where connection could be
made with the Southern Pacific or San Die
go and Gala City Railway, of California.
The Northern States of Mexico would, it is
asserted, connect with this route, and ob
tain all their supplies and machinery for the
development of the immense mineral re
sources of that region.
Judge Chase has decided that wherever
dividends of loyal railroad stockholders were
confiscated by the Confederate Government
during the war, such stockholders are enti
tled to such dividends,and the company must
pay them. This process, it will be remem
bered, was a favorite method during the war
of robbing Union men.
A Battle with Indians.
Gen. Sheridan is giving the hostile In
dians on the Southwestern plains a touch of
bis mettle. On the 23d of November he
arrived at the scene of operations in the wes
tern part of the Indian territory, some sev
en'y miles south of the Kansas line, and ad
jacent to tbe Northwestern portion of Tex
as. He immediately ordered Gen. Custer,
with eleven companies of U. S. Cavalry to
move against the Indians and attack them
and wherever found. After a severe march
of four days through a snow storm Gen.
Custer reached a village of - Black Kettle's
band of Cheyennes, Arapahoes, and Sioux,
consisting of fifty one lodges. A hard bat
tle ensued in which the Indians fought with
desperation but were utterly routed. The
Indian loss was one hundred and three war
riors killed and fifty-three women and chil
dren captured, besides their stock, arms,
lodges and ammunition. Nearly one thou
sand hed of cattle were taken. Black Ket
tle himself was killed. Gen. Custer's loss
was twenty-one killed, and fifteen wounded
including several officers. This punishment
was well deserved as the Indians had been
spreading havoc through the country, killing
and destroying everything that came in rheir
way. Sheridan is still pushing forward to
ward the winter quarters of the Indians.and
unquestionably his vigorous policy will en
sure safety to white settlers and travellers,
and compel the enemy to sue for peace.
Pel'Estriamsm. The pedestrian Payne
last week walked one hundred miles in
nineteen hours, fifty-eight minutesand three

The stopi ages amounted to three hours,
