From -the time of, the firing on Fort Sumpter, when the outraged feelings - 0/ pe *pie compelled the Democratienews papom to unfurl the American flag, and the 'Democratic party to assume just enough of loytilty to-be a veil for treason, the party up to this date has been com pelledo: hide its purposes under a mask of 'dissimulation and hypocrisy. At no time during the rebellion was this mask . thick enough to deceive intelligent men, and many times was it inadvertently re moved; so that all ,men beheld with hor ror and loathing the hideous face of tree son.,---that glowed balefully On the country arid its cease. The result of the elections showed that the majority of the Northern people were not' deceived by professions of lOYalty from a party that uniformly op posed every effort of the government to suppress, the rebellion ; whose members in Congress voted against appropriations to feedrilothe and pay the Union armies, axid io'pmvide pensions for the support of theclisahled and the widows and or phans of'Union soldiers killed in the bat tlei riednst treason.; whose kindest word for a -Soldier fighting the battles of his country; was " Lincoln's hireling," " roin 7 ions,". "pimps," or " butchers ;" whose papers - and orators openly advocated the assaishtation of the President long before it wasaecomplished: whose'members had a 'SBding,"se.ele of loyalty, from the States of thellir North, where the preponderance of Union sentiment compelled them to pay seme decent respect to it, to- the States of the border, where " conserve tivei'lLynted'• the Democratic ticket And acted as gtierrillas and spies fot the rebel 'armies. - t A party that rejoiced e,qally at rebel:successes and Union reverses. A party, in abort, that throghout the war evinced all the animisof the most inveter ate ;rebel, and lacked but one- thing to maker them identical—courage. And this was ,all in the name of loyalty. All done -from an intense respect for the constitution, a respect that could detect every, violation of the constitution in the effort to preserve it, but could see no wrong in the infamous rebellion which was stri ving to annihilate constitution and coun try together at one fell blow. Vet all this loyalty and respect for the constitution we are now told win; all hy pocrisy. The Spirit in an infamous arti cle entitled "Dissolving views." published' last Week, admits it. It was a needless admission, the fact was long patent to every lover of his country. All really boy alnien knew when the President "Passed avriy";and the nation mourned, -that the part which was hypocrisy was the grief assumed by the Democratic party. The one thing which made the blood of true men boil more than any other that occur red during the war, was the brazen impu dence of men, intruding themselves into therneethigs of sympathy held by the friends of the President after his death, taking possession of the-organization and offering resolutions which in their hearts they did not endorse, and which every man knew, corning from them -to be the blackest hypocrisy. The dead President to be eulogized by men who had every where declared him to be a usurper and a tyrant greater than Jeff Davis. But the hypdcrisy deceived no man. - Nor will the hypocrisy being practiced now by the Democratic party long deceive. Although they solemnly declared in their NatiOnel Convention in 1864 that the war was' a failure and the rebellion conse quently a success, that the objects of - the war were. Wrong and unjust, and that con sequently every soldier who fought was engaged in a bad cause. yet forsooth the Democratic party at this time is the sol diers' party. In their public utterances the soldiers are no longer "pimps, hire lings and butchers," but brave and gallant men. In districts where the Democrats have not the ghost of a chance soldiers are duly put upon their tickets and all the ' capital possible made out of them. Where there is no necessity for this the name of no 'soldier appears. Their admiration for President Jolurson has lately become intense, but should he suddenly abandon 'what he now declares to be only au ex -periment, his 'method of reconstruction. their abandonment of him would be equal ly sudden, and he would again be a mere "boorish tailor.'" All men who believe in the confiscation of rebel property to pay the public debt, who are opposed to the repudiation of the National debt or the assumption of the rebel one, and who believe that the pre , nervation of the National credit is neces sary to the prosperity and Perpetuity of the godernment, and all ; soldiers who would be honored hereafti n for their ser vices in the' war - Would s e great rebel and who se the - pensions pre serVell. and increased to themselves and the widows and °litmus of their dead com rades, will see through the hypocrisy which covers the• present policy of the Democratic party, and will see to it that that party and their rebel friends South never again come into power permanent ly: . litvli , V;nucaN Remar.sctimv.NT.—The reduc tion of the aggregate of our national debt twelve and three-quarter mullions during September, says the Vora Amtriran, was not a spasmodic effort, but part of a regular policy begun by Mr. McCul loch two months ago. During two successive months-be bas succeeded in reducing materially the total amount of interest on the debt, as will be seen by the following statement: July 31, 1865, interest, 5139,262,468 28 August 31,1865, " 138,031,628 24 September 30, 1865, " 137,529416 25 Here is a total reduction of $1,733,252 02 of in- Serest in two months. This fact shows that Mfr. itcCulloch is pursuing this policy of, reductha t with ability and success us a regular system, and that he proposes to continue the effort to reduce our 'Obligations, by changing the various forms of the debt. t Want xe harp to pay out of pocket is • • seen.4the iuterest statement, which as we have • shown, being steadily subjected to the reduc.

The Becritary, is now striving to rid himself of compound interest notes, by funding them. The point we desire our readers to observe isthat•the Treasury Depart. ment has now for:two months past been earnest ly at work in the gigaritic enterprise of reducing the burden of the public debt. It liter attacked vigorously both interest and principal, and we claim, for the Republican party the full credit of this remarkable achievement within so brief a time after the close of the war. ^lt is a proof that in peace ours is the true party of economy.

DISINTERMENT OF SOLDIERS BODIES.—It is announced from Washington that persons desiring to obtain the body of aVeceased soldier must be prepared to make an affidavit before a justice of the peace or a uotary public to the effect that be is duly authorized to receive said body; and at the same time state the company and .regiment to which he formerly belonged. All applications should be made at the office of James M. Moore, Assistant-Quartermaster, where a record is kept of the deaths of a large portion of those who have fallen during the war ; their, company, regiment and rank. together with their conjugal condition, residence of widow or relative, cause ?f death, and exact locality of theirgraves. The affidavit mute be lett at Captain Moore's office, where he will receive an order. Mr exhuming the body. The Government makes no charge for tproishing all information relative to the interment of deceased soldiers, but after it has granted the necessary permission to exhume their bodies, relinquishes all care and supervision, and the corpse must be taken from the cemetery by private conveyance, and prepared for shipuient to its destination by the same means. It is essential that a body be so prepared as to prevent any unpleasant odor, which can be done by means of disinfecting powder, or by sealing it in a patella or air-tight deodorizing case. THE CHRISTIAN COMMISRON.—The Sanitary Commission has closed its labors in the field.— The Christian Commission still continues its work. Throughout Texas and the Mississippi Valley, where there is still a field of labor, many of the mottorn branch.. and flair JaLl NaniAtiNt have turned over their stores and funds to the Chris tian Commission. The latter is carrying on, in Texas and the Mississippi valleyr the same work that it did daiing the war. It still finds a wide field of usefulness. In Texas and the west, on the pinitis, ithait as much to do as ever. It has still a large number of delegates in that distant field. There is a large army in Texas. Appeals have been sent from that State, representing that the soldiers needed, as badly as ever did the Army of the Potomac, the ministration of the Commis sion. The delegates still continue to supply hos pital stores and religious reading to the sick sol diers of that army. We hare received the first numbers of the Be:l -ama-re Daily Commercial, B,,,siew daily just din-- ted in Baltimore, by Messrs. Wm. Wales & Co.

We are of the opinion that every man entitled to the privilege of Noting should on all occasions use that privilege. • For several years we have had to go a great distance to our place of voting —for there is no such thing known in Washing ton—save the few petty city officials annually voted fur. There are hundreds of persons living there—born and raised here, aged from twenty-one up to seventy yeari; who have yet a vote to cast for either Presidential electors or anything else, save these little municipal offices. At this season of the year it is a pleasure to us to travel from Washington to Pittsburg. We al ways feel safe riding in the cars between these points—we will soon feel safer yet, for we notic ed that the double track of the Northern Central Railroad • is being rapidly pushed forward and will he completed at an early date. Then there will he a double track the way from Washing ton to Pittsburgh and this double track will be pushed on Westward frpm here in order to se. commodate the daily increase of business. The Steubenville or Panhandle railroad is now coin pleted which - shortens the distance between Now York 'and Cincinuatti some one hundred and twenty miles. The Pennsylvania Railroad has this week put anilther through passenger train on the road and from appearances it will be but a short time until a train will leave Philadelphia Tor the west every bower two. Busines; in Pittsburg is very brisk. Buildings are going up in all directions. The new depot of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company is nearly completed and will be one of the largest and most beautiful in the country. Philadelphia, New York, Boston, or Baltimore has nothing to be compared to it in the way of depots. The new gram eleva tor building, erected close by the depot, is also nearly finished. It is the first thing of tba kind ever erected here. The Monongahela House is also being re-modeled and additions built to it which will cost over $BO,OOO. This hotel, uglier the management of its present proprietor, John McDonald Croselm, is famous all over the coun try fur the excellent accommodatitiis always en joyoi by the guests.

Grant arrived here, and glorious reception was.given him. Everybody , from the city and country was out. Not less than 100,000 persons were on the streets when the General passed, and flags and bunting were die played from almost every window. The General gave the ladies a reception at City Hall, and in some three hours over 10,000 ladies passed in re- vi.w before art. One ladywas so elated at the eight Of bun that she ently threw her arm around hip and kissed him, which, for a short season, completely discomfitted the General, more so than if a cannon ball had knocked off his bat. The General expressed himself highly pleased with the whale affair and took his departure in the evening for Washington city, where he arrived yesterday morning. • . $1,116.659,191 90 65,001,570 50 Tiere is no excitement whatever here on ac " court of the election.

On the night of the 25th of last iligust, a ter rible. cold-blooded murder was committed on Boyd's Hill, in this'' eitir a , For nearly a whole month the people were horror struck, for the man WBl3 unknown and no true could be gleaned of the murderers. In searelting a house for sto len goals blood stained garments were ; found, which at once revealed the murderers, • one of whom mines confession. Benj. B. Marachall and August Frecke are the names of the muniereri, and Henry Freyman is the name of the murdered man. It was done for money. The court and jury made short work of Maracball, who was first tried. The trial commenced yesterday wonting and before ten o'clock in the evening Marechall was convicted in the first degree. The trial of Fricke will soon take place. The trial of Mrs. Grinder, the poisoner, or rather the Lucretia. Borgia of the present centu ry, will soon be taken up. t There is one other case of thin kind on record, which RSft in all pointa.co-incidental with that of Ma - Grinder's. Nancy Ferrer, now an inmate of the Hamilton County Lunatic Asylum, Cincinnatti, Ohio, pois oned patients while nursing them in the same way. The number of her victim& , was whole sale; she professed great sympathy ,and was ex ceedingly kind and she used antimony. On her trial which ttok pia& on the 18th of Febuary. 1852,Insanify was set up as a defense, but the jury rendered a verdict of 'guilty" against her. She was_sentenced to be executed on the 25th of June, 1862. The ease was taken up on error to the Supreme Court of Ohio, the verdict set aside, and a new trial granted. On the 7th of Decem ber, 1854 she was taken before the Probate Court and a jury of twelie men, under an inquest of lunacy, when the poisoning of a number of per sons was admitted, and some of the eirenmstan cw.a claimed as evidence of her insanity, and the jury decided that she was insane. Thus by one court and jury the evidence was considered suffi cient to regard the prisoner as a sane, and there fore responsible person, while another legal tri bunal with the same testimony regatded • her in sanity and irresponsibility as conclusive. From what I hear it its' not at all doubtful that Mrs. Grinder's case may take precisely,the same course. The people entertain no doubt as to her guilt, but there may be parties who will test the question, and Oolong the case as was that of Nancy Ferrer. 5, C. HAS TILE MOON AN ATMOSPHERE AND WATER, LIKE TILE EARTH? To the Editors of the Franklin Repository It is reasonable to suppose that the earth was projected from the Sun, and the Moen from the ewrtlC at the name time. (If thin to correct they must be of the same materials.) At this period, it would be full Moon when the combined attrire- 4 tion of the Sun and Earth would be exerted upon the liquid mass of the Stoop, and change its form in some degree. This change and the great at enaction of the Earth at all itmes seem to be the cause of the Harmonic Law. of Satellites, (one rotation in one revolution, with same side to the Earth,) as though the law of rotation was not suf ficient to overcome these and the Moon's inertia, as regard's her relative position with the earth In time, by radiation, a crust would be formed on the Moon, but it would be broken through at full Moon, when the tide of lava from the so-called circumference of disc, would approach the centre, thus forming volcanoes, and receding with diode-- ished force, eject lava at the edge of the disc. Thus for ages may its monthly tides back and forth from its multitude of craters - have thrown upon the Moon's surface immense quantities of ashes, cinders and pumice: and at receding tides, the superincumbent mass might break through the weakened crust, presenting thus its cavernous, jumbled and desolate condition. This hollow state of this side of the Moon', arid the light, porous matter heape 7 d upon it, would explain the fact that the centre of the Moon's fig ure and her centre of gravity are thirty-three miles apart,* and therefore her atmosphere and .crater could not be seen from the - earth, if they 'were in proportion to those of the Earths. These would' find their level (wherever they could-get) around the centre of gravity; therefore if on our side they would be in those, miles below the surface we see: fogs and pumice might pre vent any reflection. On the other hemisphere it might be similar to the Earth's, except the atmosphere, which would be surrounded and overtopped by the piled up scoria and ashes. 'I hue, it might never be disco. vered from the earth, only by its effect upon a star when passing behind it. This has been seen—a star as though clinging to the edge of the Moon. On another occasion the star disappeared, then .appeared and vauished.t As regards radiation the Moon is quite well pro tected, so that it 'may not be impossible for liquid lava to be there at this time, as the ray system seems to indicate it. The straight lines forming an angle on the edge of the disc are no doubt (what has been alleged)the sinking down of the crust, or perhaps caverns. Seen at right angles to their depths, those vast caverns scattered over her disc would present lines andangles if we were at the proper position to observe them. • Annular , and spiral nebula'. It is probable that the unresolvahle of theTtbove description are similar to Saturn, with light and dark rings, which are. electrical; and when under rapid rotation would appear annular, and greatly accellerated rotation' would present a spiral nebula.

It may be that I ought to feel grateful to the Generals who thrashed me and all my friends w ithin an inch of our lives, but, in the language of Mr. A. Ward, "I don't see it in those lamps." We all admire the artistic beauty of the style in which the Union - Generals put us through; we make no attempt to suppress or disguise the fact that the thing was done handsoMely in pointof skill : but to denounce us as a set of ungrateful sons of guns, because we don't expend our ink and eloquence in constantly saying so, would be called, in some countries, a .premediated attempt to add insult to injury. CULTIVATION OF TEA IN THE SouTH.—Some years ago, some South Carolinians experimented in that State with the tea plant, and for several years their reports of its success led every one who rend them to believe that the cultivation of the tea plant in that region was likely to prove a success. The long silence since upon that sub ject forces a different conclusion. But we see that a man who has been cultivating tea as an ex periment since ltitiO, writes to the Savanah Her ald that most of his plants grow firtely; that his tea is of good quality, and the plants will doquite as well in Georgia as in their native country.— The plants require no culture after the third year. If well taken care of by that time, they will be large enough to commence the manufacturing of tea liorn them. The yield to the acre is from three to four hundred pounds, and the plants pro duce good crops for eighteen or twenty years.— The growth of tea is not affected by dry or wet weather, or by storms, and insects will not molest the plants.—Ledger. THERE is a deplorable condition of affairs in Morgan county, Kentucky,. and the adjoining counties of Wolfe and Floyd are also a good deal disturbed. Mr. Geardon, the United States Rev enue Collector, was compelled to stop his work by a guerrilla gang commanded by a man named Williams, and a small force of troops sent to the scene of trouble.) only succeeded in scattering the guerrillas, who firea on the soldiers froinambush. Mr. Geardon returned with the troopstollexing ton, and it will be impossible for biui to prosecute his duties in Morgan county without the protec tion of a considerable body of soldiers, as Wil liams has sworn that uo taxes shall be levied there.

IS STATE REPORTED 011011 BY 8,000 TO 10.000 ! FRANKLIN COUNTY URI CLOSE! UN Sheriff Certainly Elected AASEMBLY 1111 DOUBT! We have but partial returns from the State, and they indicate the success of the Union State ticket by from 8,000 to 12,000. Philadelphia eves from 3,000 to 4,000; Allegheny 5,000; Lan caster 4,500; Dauphin 1,200. Barks gives 5,000 Democratic, Cumberland 500, and scattering re ports show uniform Democratic - losses in the hea vy Democratic counties on the vote of last Octo ber. Our Wit dispatch from Philadelphia, at this morning, says that the State is regarded as Union by from 8,000 to 12,000, but gives no de tails. We do not-accept this report as conclu sive, but we do not am hoW- the result can be against us, 3,475 :1,947 At the time of going to press (2 4. M., this morning) we have but twelve of the twenty-two diitricts reported, and they - shosf - a Union gain of TwEtrre-two on nit home vote for President last year, when Gen. McClellan bad forty-sit ma jority. This leaves twenty-four majority to laver. come in the remaining districts, and we cannot even guesses to the result. We hope for a fall ing otr in Letterkenny, Largan and Concord, frOm the crust* Democratic majorities of last year, and a small Union gain in Metal, but ice can on ly surmise. • The local ticket runs rather ragged. McLel- . lan gains considerably—probably forty votes—in Chambersburg. Doebler also gains largely .here and is pretty certainly elected Sheriff. Kuhn is also elected Surveyor, but the rest of the ticket is in-doubt. We have no returns for Assembly excepting from the North Ward, Loudon and St. Thomas, and cannot calculate the result. Col. Stumbaugh will probably lead Tressler from 50,t0 100 in the county, and McLellan will lead Stambaugh pro bably from 50 to 75. We have no returns from Perry to indicate the vote of the county. Onr Representatives are therefore in doubt. Greenvillage is the banner district. She has done most nobly, and had her efforts been imita ted throughout the county, the entire Union tick et would now be triumphantly elected. Duncan gains a few votes for Senator and may have a very small majority over M'Conangby in the county. A dispatch from Gettysburg states that the Union men have made clear gains, but the county is pretty certainly Democratic-by 100 to 125, so that Duncan's election to the Senate is assured. The following ie the vote by districts in the county as far as they are reported, compared with the home vote for President list year : ....296,389 276,308 Antrim 4 . 69 443 30 North Ward.. - . 278 143 123 South 256 226 23 Concord 22 93 Dry Rat 94 98 FayettevMe 222 190 55 Greene - 111w— 163 109 - 95 Guilford .175 197 Harnllton 116 142 Letterkenny.... 136 227 Lurgae, -. 83 139 Loudon.4--...... 78 92 Metal 194, 83 'Montgomery.... 214 147 1.50" Orretown 76 119 Peters 152 53 Quincy 181 309 Southampton... 53 71 SaL M 48 St. Thomas...-. 138 169 - Washington.... 312 262 Warren 50 57 Welsh Hun.-- 92 145 Army vote.-- 346 259 3,882 3,821 Lincoln's =amity, 41 - Montgomery and Paten. A COMPREMENSIM scheme for benefitting the South by supplying it.with :labor , has been devis ed in the East; Governor Andrew, of Massachu setts, being at the head of it. The project con templates the establishment of a central office in New York, where the owners of land in the slave States can become acquainted with Northern pur chasers, and thus a stream of' emigration be or ganized which will fill certain sections of the South with a population having Northern energy and ideas. Branch offices Will be instituted in all the former slave States. In this way it is hoped to "reconstruct" -the Southern States socially as well as politically." The Southern States them selves are doing something of the same kind, and to the same end: It is proposed in several' f them to appoint a State Commissioner, with pow er to ascertain and advertise all lands fur sale, to open information offices, to distribute descrip tive pamphlets, and to station emigration agents in the chief ports of Europe. . THE EXPERIENCE OF A TENNESSEE PARDON SEEKER.—Bfi. John Hoppy, of the Neater& Banner. gives the following humorous descrip tion of his journey - lugs after a pardon : Had a personal intetview with the Chief Mag istrate, and asked him for a small pardon, if he had any more left. Chief Magistrate wanted to know what position I held in the rebel army. The answer was faint, somewhat hesitating, and a little shaky—l said : " Quartermaster." Chief Magistrate chuckled and turned his head to con. real a sardonic smile. "My ancient and venera ble friend," he said, "if you think that lour de partment of the rebellion endangered the Union cause, your innocence is a pardon in itself." THE CHOLERA.—The latest foreign mails re ceived at the State Department bring no intelli gence of the further spread of the cholera. The U. S. Consul at Trieste, Austria, in a dispatch to the Department of September' 13, says that the reports in relation to the cholera from all ports is his neighborhood are highly satisfactory; that the health of Trieste just now is exceptionally good, and that-the cold northerly wind has set is, and removed all anxiety upon the score of epi demic diseases. The energetic action of the maritime authorities has been of such avdif that no cases of cholera in Trieste have come to the knowledge of the Consul. Tim FESIANS.—The Fenian Brotherhood in the United States numbers 350,000; in the Brit ish Provinces,4s,ooo; in Ireland,2oo,ooo ; in En gland, 65,000 ; of which 35,000 are in the city of London. There are over 5000 soldiers belonging to the fraternity in the British army. The month ly expenses of the body amount to $60,000, and it is said that a tax of WO per man on the Feni an; in the United States is nearly made up, and that the aggregate assessment will reach $5,000,- 000. Eight per cent: onds of the " Irish Repub lic" are in course of being manufactured, and will soon be in the market. GEN GRANT was prodigal 'of his words at Sk Pant, bfmn., on August 26. He made two speech es. Th e fist, when he entered the town, that; " Ladies and gentlemen : It is not my habit to make speeches, but 1 thank you for this very cor dial welcome which you have given me to St. Paul. The second in response to a serenade, thus:- a Gentlemen and firemen of St. Paul: I am just about to leave, after a very pleasant vim* to your city and State. lam much obliged to you for the cordial welcome I have.received. Good night." Deana Roasnay.—The office of the Ada= Ewe= Company, to this place, was entered o„ Saturday night by burglars. The safe containials probably twenty dollars, and some unimportant papers, was taken out through a back window and conveyed some distance from town, where it mu; forced open andielieved of its contents. The robber., fortunately, obtained poor remuneration for the risk, labor and trouble they were put to. They are still it large.•••Gettlekurg The State. Franklin county. Pres. /664. dud. Q. '6,5.
