SPEECH' OF Mk" 3FLELIAN
Mr. McLellan, the Democratic nominee for
As.:embly. was called on by the Convildhoi fora
vpoech, to v,hich ho redpotoled. In tlo hot Spir
it we find.: report of the address, and we:'imp) it
as 3 part of the history of the campaign. lie
said :
I feel gratified for the honor conferred and yet
it is with reluctance I accept the nomination ten
dered me. There is but one consideration prompt
ing me to awaeceptauce,•-and that is a desire (if
elected) to secure some compensation to oar citi
zens for losses sustained during the terrible re
bellion which has just been brought to a happy
issue. The people of the border have been as it
were the break-water of this civil strife.-and up
on them to a great extent have been imposed the
burthens of this conflict, apart from the weighti
er consideration of having been despoiled of a
large amount of their property. OUght not some
compensation be made for their losses by a gen
erous Gove•rnmeut ! Will not the people of the
other sections of this Union feel IN Wing to contri
bute to our necessities ' sines' they have been en
riched whilst we have been impoverished ? We
think that the sj mpathy of every right thinking
man must be awakened for that worthy rind in
iriistrious citizen who has been rendered penni
less and almost crushed into the ea,rth. by no act
of his own, hut by the wicked conduct of a re
tentless foe. The great Creator has implanted in
our bosoms feelings and sentiments which ought
to be aroused by considerations of this diameter.
But apartfrOm this can we not demand compen
sation as a -matter of right ? We furnished to the
National Government our quota of men and means
to carry this struggle to a successful issue, and
we are now contributing our share to pay the in
terest and principal of the debt incurred. Sup
port and prot&tion are the mutual duties of gov
ernment and governed, and if the government
failed or Was unable to give us protection in time
of need, the duty - certainly devolves upon it to,
compensate our citizens for any loss sustained by
reason of the withdrawal of that protection.—
The question may he asked, why apply to the
State, as the National Got eminent is ultimately
responsible for tiptoe losses. In answer I would
simply say that our relations are more intimate
with the State than National Government, and I
believe the duty of protection IS incident to both.
Every State within the sphere of its action ought
to take care of its own citizens, and when it tails
to do so its constituted authorities incur respon-'
sibility to the citizen. In this case the responsi
bility maybe a secondary one, but if oar people
were compelled to appeal to Congress for redress
the delay and expense incident to such an effort
N\ mild be PO great as almost to deter them front
the attempt, whereas if the State interpose in our
behalf, there Will be but little difficulty in her au
thorities securing restitution from the General
Government. Besides, our Legislature has, to a
certain extent recognized this responsibility by
appropriating $3,000,000 for State defense at the
tune of the organization of the Pennsylvania Ite
serve;corps,and a further appropriation of $.0100,-
000 for the same object at a subsequent period.
In relation to national issues - I must say with
candor to the Convention that the reconstruction
policy inaugurated by President Johnson meets
Iny hearty approval. Ile totally ignores that Hy
dra secession; which at the outset of has war was
hotbed upon by all considerate men no the most
dangerous innovathin ever attempted in the pro
gress, of this government. Had it been FilleZett,
ally maintained it w wild have rendered our Union
most unstable, liable to he severed by the merest
whim or caprice. We Humid then have w itness
ed the States, like comets flying off in unknown
paths, and not (as intended by the founders of our
government) revolving like the planets round a
• great centre of attraction, and kept in position by
mutual affinities. The Preiiident takes hold of
the Southern States where the rebellion found
them, and recognizes their State goverimients - as
then existing, With the single restriction imp ose d,
that before they again become participants in the
benefits of the I Wion, they abolish human slavery.
The elective franchise is left where the Conirtitu
tbin placed it, under the control of the States re
spyctively, and the position now assindial by the
radical pstioa of the Republican party, that the
Southern'States must be held in military subjec
tion till they confer the right of suffrage on the
colored population is discountenanced and discar
ded by the policy ef e the President. It seems to
me that in this position of the President there is
wisdom and safety, and he ought to be sustained
by the country. It roof vast moment to every
American citizen that the honor and credit of the
government should be preserved intact, but should
this theory of the radicals be put in pmetieal op.
eration and the national Government be necessi
tated to maintain military govertudents all through
the South (creating enormous expenditures in ad
dition to the actual expense of the general gov
ernment), I ask every reflecting man if there is
not great,danger of that time coming when the
people will be so burthened.by taxation, as to look
to repddiation as the only relief. Is it not ins
portant then that we should sanction antlsustain
that policy which looks to the earliest restoration,
and with the least possible expenditure. Such,
in my opinion, is the policy inangurated and press
ed by the President, and opposed with vehemence
by the active and energetic portion of the Repub.-
liean party. The question of suffrage is placed
beyond our control, under the provisions of the
Constitution, and why these men so--persistently
ur ge it i s passing strange, without they intend to
discard and override the Constitution. I would
ask my fellow-citizens whether they feel prepared
to confer the right of suffrage on the colored race;
would it be wise and expedient to strike the word
white from our State Constitution? If not, then
why impose this requirement upon the people of
the South. Ought we not feel willing to do unto
others as we would that they should do unto us,
and-would it be rightto require a sacrifice at the
hands of the Southern people which we are un
willing to make ourselves. Besides would the
mere conferring the elective.franchise elevate the
colored race. Has not our experience evinced
that it would not ? Then why keep alive an ir
ritated state of feeling on the question, and thus
endanger the restoration of the Union. Is it not
more important that the government should be
speedily established in all ita parts than that the
country should be kept Ma state of excitement
by what may ultimately turn out to be a mere
Utopian theory. [The condition of the colored
man may be amehorated, but can he be perma
nently elevated without placing him on a social
equality with the white num. Axe we prepared
for this change iu our social system and its results
Does not every man• see that it must ultimately
lead to an amalgamation of .the races, and is not
this abhorrent to all the better feelings of our
nature ?
THE PRESIDENT'S FAMILY.
correspondent of the Baltimore C li pper, Wri
ting froni' s "The Grange,"" Prince George's coun
ty, remarks: • -
A few miles from Ravenswood, is the beauti
ful and romantically situated Walnut Grange,.
where in a sweet and sheltered nook I am now
writing. How refreshing the shade, the verdant
laWn, the trimly kept flower garden, the meadows
covered with cattle, and the thick woods - 4 after
the din and dust and glare of a day in thticity !
An evening in this quiet rural region is the best
of restoratives after the exhaustion of Depart
mental labor; and a sound sleep in the country
air is balmy indeed. lam ready always to start
in the morning upon another round of engage
ments and exertions.
If the Presi,deut would only give up that un
wholesome White House altogether at this sea
son, and repair to some country residence, going
to the city for a few hours each day, if required
by business, his health would be quite restored.
His present indisposition, however, proceeded
fann sea sickness. During their aquatic e:teur
siva the Presidential party got a taste of Old Nep
tune's way of entertaining landsmen, when they
venturT too far on his dominionk 4 toss at the
mouth of the Potomac, or on the Chesapeake, is
sometimes rough enough to disturb any system
unaccustomed to such treatment, and the Presi
dent being of a billions temperament, has suffered
from it more or less ever since.
Mrs. Patterson, his second daughter, who, dur
(
in the illness , of her mother, is the presiding lady
o - the Executive Mansion, and who accompanied
tl e President upon that voyage, is a better sailor.
And, although t Mr. Johnson has been obliged to
deny himself ti.r the importunate crowds who still
persist in their desire to see him on their various
small affairs. Mrs i Patterson does the honors of
the White House to those who call upon her in
the evening with a graceful and cordial affability,
which is very v, - inning and attractive, and promi
ses to make the feminine administration of the
Executive Mansion quite as popular as there is
every reason to believe her father's'will,be.
I had the, pleiumre of spending an evening there
recently, in company with a Tennesseelady, who,
tinder a lonuer regune, occupied a most distin
goished place in Washington society, the widow
..r the late Aaron V. Brown, Governor of Tennes
see, and at the time of iii4death Postmaster Gen
eral. , There was sonfetbing very engaging in the
air of frankness; and case-with which these ladies
met.
Their male relatives had been in open and hos
tile antagonism during the rebellion, but now
they, themselves, recognized in each other only
the claims to mutual kindness, respect, and con
fidence as becoming women of culture and influ
ence from the same State. It is not trespassin ,, ,
I trdst, beyond the bounds of propriety to aird
that Mrs. Patterson is personally well qualified
to impart gnu:eland dignity to whatever devolves
upon her in thekTeeptions of the White Douse.
henry - Clay, once at the close of a pleasant even
ing, said to Mrs. Joules K. Polk, in that gay tone
which was ho delightful to' hear:. -Madam,
have never heard any body speak of your admin
istration but with praise; though I haveoccasion
ally heard some slight complaints against your
husband's!" I have no doubt but the ladies of
the E xecutive Mansion now, will be at least equal
ly successful. These allusions would 'be out of
place iri , a public journal. were it not for the fa - et
that they relate to matters in which the nation
must ever have a deep concern and in regard to
whirls the public curiosity is proverbial; nor can
that curiosity be properly thought morbid or in
aorous.
I am of opinion that much of the pressure upon
theCluef Magistrate would be abated if all per
sons would remember that, atter all, the business
of applicants will, in most instances, be referred
to the Executive Departments to which the cases
belong. It is not at all probable that the Presi
dent will 'ever entertain weals from the decision
of the Departments as a general thing. for the
obvious reason that the acts of the heads of those
Departments are his acts. Were he to under
take to re-open the cases settled by his executive
subordinates, tore-examine their details, With a
view of reversing or modifyin ,, ' the decisions of
those functionaries, it is manifest be would have
no time for his own appropriate and higher du
ties. Such procedure would be entirely imprac
ticable, and would only leadto confusion and con-.
flirt, oven if it could be carried out:
Colonel Drowning and General Mi ssey, the
President's secretaries, have introduced a degree
,if stein and order in the Executive oflce w hich
greatly facilities the trans - action of biekiness by
all who really have matters before thei, Chief,
which buy ith propriety be brought m der his
special notice. Those who call only from ,eurios
ity or compliment, or to enlbree by persosah im
portunities the subjects they may happen to have
on baud, ought not to complaill if they iave to

WELL ]LATCHED.
There is a coincidence in the nomination of the
editor of the PoylcstOwn Democrat, for Auditor
General, and the Selection of the Senator from
Clearfield as the Chairman of the Copperhead
State Central Committee, which the fighting men
of Penngl,lranin cannot fail to see. Indeed, the
men who left the comforts of their homes, and
gave up the interests of their business, to peril
their lives on the battle-field in defeuce. of the
safety of the Government, believing that they
would not forfeit any of the franchises of citizen
ship, are under peculiar obligations to W. W. - H.
Davis, editor ,et the Doytestozcn Democrat, and
W. A. Wallace, Senator from Clearfield. When
the question of the right of the soldierto suffrage
was before the Legislature. Mr. Wallace was its
bitterest assailant. Ile opposed it because he be
lieved a refusal to extend such a right to the sol
diers absent from Pennsylvania was a fitting re
buke to those engaged in an unholy war. He de
manded it because he desired to show that men
_brutalized by the inhumanities of a - civil War
waged to destroy the brave and chivalric, people
of the slave States, were nufit to exercise a free
man's right, unworthy to be trusted with the sa
cred privileges of the ballot Yet today 'Win. H.
Wallace is the Chairman of the Copperhead State
Central Committee, and will shortly engage in
appeals to the soldiers, whom he so lately char
acterized as unfit to vote in the field, to cast their
votes when at home for Davis and Linton. And
when the question of ratifying the amendment to
the Constitution necessary to extend the elective
franchise to the soldier came before the people,
the Doylestown Democrat, owned and controlled
by W. W. H. Davis, now the Copperhead candi
date for Auditor General, echoed all the vile slan
ders heaped on the soldiers by Wallace, and add
ed to the Copperhead slanders by coining new
falsehoods to defeat that great measure of justice
to our fighting men.. Geo. Davis' awn journal,
then completely under his control and supposed
to reflect Ids views, denounced the proposition to
enfranchise the soldier as the determination to
place the country beneath the heel of military
despotism, which the people outside of the army
should resist at the peril of their lives.
—Wallace and the Doylestown Democrat are
still the representatives of the Copperhead organ
ization. Will the soldiers of Pennsylvania be led
kly these influences 7 Will th'e soldiers who have
just returned to civil life, alA g iace their military
record by voting at the. bidding of one . man for
another, both - of whom denied the soldier the ex
ercise of the elective franchise ata time when he
was giving the highest proofs of his rights to all
the privileges of citizenship 1 We believe that no
soldier auth any regard for his honor will be thus
controlled in his vole.

' GEN. GiinNr's visit to his home-at Galena,
brings up a number of interesting reminiscences
which show more truly the character of the man
than the most labored enlogY. He was received
by the citizens of that thriving town in a very
handsome mariner, nod a gift waspresented - in
the shape of a beautiful resideneli, to induce the
General to ro-establistalmself as one of the citi
zens of that town. , • Thu louse is a two-story
brick, with au acre of ground for its surroundings.
It is furnished also with, everything requisite to
housekeeping. In that UT, five yews ago, or.
before the war broke ou , i ed Capt. Grant, now
the famoUs 'Lieutenant enerat ; of the United
~States forces. Here, like many,another Modest
American citizen, he so - as almoat'unl m own, pur
suing attentively his business, but hot tusking
very rapidly a fortune:, He was engaged with
his father in the leather business, and Mid only
one other person as clerk, ;besides himself. Ile
did the overseeing of the establishment, and with
leather apion before him, - would have been ink,-
taken for the porter. Forty dollars a month was
the extent of his salary, on which' he supported
himself and .family. The ti - ar came; however,
and Capt. Grant's military education and milita
ry talents had now an oppbrtnnity'fOr develop
ment. - He was so little known, thatthe efforts
of his friends to seitireltis appointment to a mili
tary command Were at first not very promising,
but his energies. and his. talents displayed them
:selves, and he was put in command of a regiment.
.From that humble beginning, in four-years; he
rose to the highest rank in the armies of his coun
try, and put on end to the ' greatest rebellion hio
tory ever recorded. Gen. Grant's career shows
what thorbugh professional education, combined
with good 'sense and sterling integrity; will do for
a man in the absence of-great genius. -

Jeff. Davis has been unable to take his out-door
exercise fur several days past, on account of a
carbuncle on one of his legs. Davis has foryears
been subject to these painful eruptions, and as

epistolary communications is known only to Mr.

though never at the same hours. Mitchel has just
received a small bale of Lynchburg smoking to
bacco, from his son at Richmond. The fragrant
Lynchburg weed was allowed to pass the glitter

of smoking tobacco. - ...•
GENErtAL Struntitrt delivered a speech some
days since at Lancaster, Ohio, at a soldiers' pic
nic. After treating on several questions, he pro
ceeded to consider the proper civil status of. the
Rebels. He defined it as follows :
"When the Rebels ventured their all in their
efforts.to destroy our Government, they Pledged
their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred hon
ors 'to their cause. The Government accepted
their'wager of battle. Hence, when we con
quered,-we by conquest gained all they had—
their property became ours by conquest. Thus
they lost their slaves, their mules,, their horses,
their cotton, their all; and even their lives and
personal liberty, thrown by them into the-issue,
were theirs only by our forbearance and clemen
cy. By this right of conquest we own this ground
we stand on to-day, conquered from the Indians,
the Shawnees, I believe.
"The State of Ohio is ours by conquest from
the French and English.
"So, soldiers, when we marched through and
conquered the country of the - rebels, we became
owners of all they had, and I don't want you to
be truubled in your consciences for taking, while
uu our great march, the property of conquered
Rebels. They have forfeited their nghtsto it, and
I, beint , agent for the Government to which I be
longed, gave you authority to keep all the quar
termasters couldn't take possession of or didn't'

STONE COAL IN PERRY.—Morgan Davis, a
skilful and experienced miner, informs us that he
was-lately employed by Messrs. D. M. Black and
Job Hockenberg, to dig for coal On the laud °film
latter in Horse Valley, Toboyne township, Perry
county.; and that he has discovered a vein of about
three feet in thickness of hard bituminous coal—
He says it is a regular formation vein—that _he
has explored it on the crop, and is about to sink
a drittlelow - in the bill to test it further. Horse
Valley is a very narrow valley lying between the
Conococheaguc and Tuscarora mountains, and
the coatis found on the north' side of the Conoco
cheague, several hundred feet higher than the
Sherman's Valley, lying south of said mountain.
The coal found is about four miles by the road
over the mountain from New Gendantown, - and
about the same distance from Waterford in Juni
ata couuty. Mr. Davis says the coal burns very
well, and understands that specimens of it have
been taken to Philadelpnia; where practical men
have i pronounced it to be of good quality. Fur
therexplorations are being made to test themat
ter fully and fairly.—Perry Freeman.
AN IMPORTANT OMlSitioN,=—By 0tt0...! oyer
the official proceedings of the Copperhea on
vention as published in their . organs, an import
ant omission will be discovered Tie following
resolution was offered by the Mr. IL_ W. Petriken,
of Lyporning, which was referred tithe Commit
tee on Resolutions, without debate :
I?esolred, That the soldiers of 1E8142, should
have appropriated to them not leas than one hun
dred and silty acres of laud, and that Congress
be urged to make such appropriation.
° In-examining the report of the Founuittee, this
resolution is missing, and from we can learn,
it led tog protracted discussion in the secret meet
ing of the committee, where it was almost unaiii
mouslY-rejerted by that body
,Nothing is said in the official proceedings of
this resolution, and Mr. Petrikeu must feel him
self hi g hly complimented by the omission.—Har
