The biMtierruiJ c'aiim bill is not very
likely to got through tho Legislature at 1Lis

April 7:h, and .wh'ch soma of the Penio

pubiioan party, is solely a Democratic meas
ure', and was advocated and passed by that
party. Such are the views on economy,
likely to be carried out by the Democracy,
should they again get into power.
A j-.iry at Huntingdon, TenncF?o, -in
which, we are informed by a Nashville pa

community imitated the example of Hun

It i: not to be reft to time alone to rec

of policy on his part as wise as it was un
expected by the people thus naturalized. I.i

will soon I032 their bitterness toward Ger

A new and important question has arisen
in the United States District Court in bank
ruptcy in N;7 York. It has been found in
a majority of instnp-es no account has been
rendered of the r-Kms paid by bankrupts to
their lawyers ; and as all the assets of the
bankrupt belong ta his creditors, it is claim
ed that a bankrupt hss no right to fee coun
sel with any of the proceeds of his estate,
and that counsel in receiving such fees in
voluntarily fate the r lace of debtois. and

One disease the Democracy labor under,
if full credit can be attached to their pro
fessions, is "devotion to the constitution''
The habit has gnwn chronic. Their devo
tion has been so great that the country is
only just emerging fioai the disasters of a
great war in'o which they plunged it out of j
supreme bjve for the constitution. Now
that t"n bitterness of the strife is abating,
tie old fiimc still pursues them. They see
in every act of Congress to preserve order
jtid restore internal quiet, nothing cl.-c but
glurina and reckless violations of that
8cred instrument. It is perishing before
their very eyes having received a vital stab
in the bill to suppress the Ku Klux. It was
ruined by a mere proposition to consider the
Sn Dmingo question, and it wiil surely
perish cnlesa they can elect the next Presi
dent This they assert with as much confi
dencc as they assert a great many other
things; and for sught we pan f-ec, it inspires
about the fame measure of publij belief.
"Devotion to tha convatution' has worn
the concern down to skin, and bone ; and
evcu in its misery and forlorn state, it keeps
-i0 proclaiming its lova with as much ap
pear.ir.ui of earnestness as if it i-xpeeted
t'ua asf-ertiop i b credited. Who knows
but the concern vfc'U die yet of this great
ruiotioti ? Nothing but 6 yigurouij constitu

. Their Animus.
Any attempt to execute the Force or Kn
Klux bill by force should be resisted by
force. And it will ba. Beltifonle Watch

ocratic party of Centre county, and its edi
tor is a member of the Legislature. Thfe
above article, says the Hollidaysburg Tifrjis
trr, shows the animus of that part j. Here
is a law passed fr the protection of the in
nocent and law afdding poojtie ol the south,
from a bind of assassins, that this paper
recommends its friends to nullify and resist
by force. It, wa3 through the teachings of
just such persons as the writer of the nbove,
that this nation was plunged into the blood
iest c'.cil war recorded in history that del
U'd the south in blood, caused every fami
ly in the whole land to mourn the loss of
some near and dear friend, and piled upon
the nation a debt mountain high. And ye:
this Democratic paperadvocates a resistance
to the laws of the countty.and another war !
But he only follows the advice of Frank
Blair and other leaders of bis party, win
are in favor of the nullification of the Con
Hiintion nr.". lawj of the country, ami an
other rebellion. All person- who are im
posed to another civil rar will range them
selves with the Kepublican party, which is
in favor of peace, happiness, plenty, and
the perpetuity of the glorious American
Union. We ask the people to ponder these
facts.
Their Exposure Complete.
The exposure of the Democratic frauds
in the Connecticut election is complete and
the proof overwhelming. Five hundred
and seveny-nine citizens of the Fourth
Ward of New Haven have appeared before
the Legislative Committee investigating the
frauds, and sworn that they voted for the
Kepublican candidate for Governor, thus
establishing beyond question or cavil the
fact that a package of cne hundred Kepub
lican tickets has been abstracted from the
ballot-box of that poll. These and other
changes in the figures show that Mr. Jewell
was fairly elected by a majority over all of
S6 votes; and will fully justify the passage
by the Legislature of a resolution declaring
him entitled to the office of Governor. The
resignation of the Democratic Assemblymen
is threatened, but they will not dare supple
ment the vil!iany of the Democratic agents
at the polls by thus publicly refusing to rec
tify their frauds. Connecticut Democracy
is already under grave suspicion and char
ges. Such action by its representatives in
the Legislature would be positive convic
t ion.
Democracy and the foor Man.
The Democratic j arty has always profes
sed to he the particular friend and guardian
of the interests of the poor man, and not
withstanding its opposition to a protective
tariff, and its efforts to bring down the wa
ges ct the laboring man in thi3 country to
the low standard rf Inbor in European coun
tries, we will TPTiture the assertion, that
nine tenths of the Democrats in Pennsylva
nia, would assert that they are the poor
man's friends. But where they have the
power they always show the cloven foot.

The Dead Lock Explained.
The much cpoken of and often alluded to
"dead look" to the proceedings ot the Leg
islature has a significance which the peo
ple at large do not exactly appreciate. It
was manifest to a close observer early in the
esssion, that the Democracy having a ma
jority of one in the Senate.obtained throueh
fraud, would not entertain even a proposi
tion to investigate the -election in the first
di'triet of Philadelphia, by which they se
cured the mastery, and during the entire
session, this party, "historically knowo as the
impediment of fvr.Mrress and the highest
form of civilization, deliberately and inten
tionally threw every obstacle they could in
the way of all legislation alTecting either
private or public interest, unless it was of
such a character as to lend tome additional
political importance to their revolutionary
position bs public legislators. The Repub
lictis bean and transacted their private
and public bills in their order in a legitimate
manner until they had heaped up and mes
sa pod over tb the Senate for their consider
ation some, eleven hundred bill. There
they were and are yet unacU d upon, to the
preat iuniry and detriment of the people
over the State. It is naturally aked, why
.such ti srete of affairs? The response and
explanation are easy. . It was done simply
to force "Rnd impose upon the people an un
jast and inequitable apportionment of the
State, such as would give tt a minority
.party, a majority representation in both
branches of the legislature. To this mon
trnsity the Republicans would not submit.
Finally there was a bill agreed upon, which
every fair-minded man ot either party knows
was liberal so far as the majority party was
concerned. It was then thought the Sen
ate would be anxious to go to work, espc
cially upon some of the most important pub
lie bills, but such was not the case. Among
the most important bills early acted upon
affecting tha publio welfare, by the Republi
can House and sent to the Senate, were the
calling of a Constitutional Convention; the
much-needed reform on the subject of spe
cial legislation, the local option law ; the
apportionment bill ; tho treasury bill, &o.
The people demanded favorable and prompt
legislation upon these matter', but the Pe;n
onratio Senate turned with a deaf ear to
their urgent appeals. List week developed
the reason why such political and moral re
forms, slept the sleep that knows no waking,
in the Democratic committees of the Sen
ate; it was no less important a one than the
demand for an entire change and modifica
tion of the registry law of Philadelphia.
Thi9 hw was passed to prevent frauds at
the polls and preserve intact the bollot-box-from
the polluting and contaminating in
fluence of such politicians as Rill McMullen,
Johnny Ahern, et. al. It has to a consid
erable 'eFttt-ont accomplished its object, be
cause it does approach to fairness and purity
and guards with jealous care the very palla
dium of our liberty end free institutions.
The Democracy 4io!d this revolutionary rod
t ver the hcatU of the Republican House,
and boldly say they will not legislate for pub
lie or private interests until it is modified to
such an extent as-to ba easily manipulated
ty such immicttkttr. political tricksters. In
answer to such a monstrous proposition, we
arc glad to announce the R:pub!i 'ans were
firm and flcSant and utterly refused to abate
one Jot or tittle of the law, a it now exists,
and upon this issue they put themselves be
fore the country. We may now have a
fruitless winter ot lecislation, as the major
ity party of the Stat-s conscious of being
richt, will never yield to such demands. At
this juncture of affairs, it is with the Dem
oeracy to say whether llu-i insist. If they
do, we hops and appeal to the Republican
members of both houses to stand firm in the
rijjbt, and if needs be, as they have legisla
ted properly and performed their duty and
obligations to their party and State, 1st the
Governor exercise his prerogative and send
them home, where they will be fully sus
tained, on account of constancy to principle
and good government. The party which
saved the country from rebellion and the
ruthless hands of her de.spoilers, is not the
part3 to be brow beaten and dragooned into
the iniquities set up and demanded by the
Democracy. With the registry law as it is,
tbe coffee-pot will liu rusting in the classic
shades of ClearGeld county. Change it.and
we will see King William plying his voca
