I1IESTER CLYMER, OT BERKS COUNTY. Why we Support the President. We are frequently asked why we support President Johnson. We support the Pres ident because he has placed himself in an attitude, which we believe to be in alliance with Democratic principles, which must pre vail, if the Union, under the Constitution, is to be restored to its former happiness and prosperity. The Democratic party have never withheld their endorseme.it from any i.an, when advocating Democratic princi ples. And only so far as President Johnson follows Democratic principles will the De mocracy endorse him. We support Presi dent Johnson only in his patriotism and fidel ity to the people, and in his labors to effect what we believe to be die best interests of the country. But while endorsing President Johnson in many things, we hold fast to every principle of Democracy with renewed vigor. We do not cease to be Democrats; we do not cease to cherish the doctrines of Jefferson ; we do not loose our grasp on the Democratic doctrines of yore as the true sources of prosperity to a Union. We trust that it is well understood that we support him as Democrats, and because he urges Democratic measures, and that it is only in these that he receives the support of the Democratic party. And we are glad that President Johnson, as well as hundreds of others, realize theact that the best in terests of the country demand that the Dem ocratic doctrines be faithfully carried out We rejoice that so many who have hereto fore been affiliated with the Dis-union party bow see that they must throw themselves "into the arms of the Democracy if they would save the Union from utter destruction, and themselves from the "earthquakes" which are surrounding them. We are pleased to know that so many see that the white men of this country cannot'be longer deluded into the support of sectional measures. County Poor House, The editor of the Berwick Gazette is will ing to come down a little, and confine his remarks, in opposition to the Columbia County Poor House, to the Borough of Berwick; a nice way of acknowledging that he publishes a paper for the guidance and edification of the citizens of that place alone. But, in his first article one would not sup pose this the case, as his strictures upon the Poor House question were too general, and not made applicable alone to any Borough or township in the county. We do not feel disposed, if we had the power, to force any district into this measure, but desire each and every ne to think and act in the matter for themselves ; and if that is the position of the Gazette, we shall better understand it in the future. And so far a3 calling upon the Borough to pay taxes to keep any poor of "other townships," we can say that, from what information we have in the matter, these County Poor Houses are self-sustain ing institutions. At least this is the case in the counties of Chester, Lehigh, Berks, Bucks, Schuylkill, Montour, Clarion and others, that we might mention. In several of these counties' the Poor House farm cre ates, instead of a burden upon the tax-payers, quite a revenue to the county, and we fail to see why the same thing can't be done in Columbia county. It must be a poor farm, indeed, if properly managed, that would not produce sufficient to maintain the paupers of this county, without taxing the people, when a large amount of the labor can be done by the paupers themselves. In conversation with a gentleman from Schuylkill county, not long since, we were in formed, that for twelve years while he lived his property. At present he could not state whether or not the people of that county were subjected to any poor taxes, but rather thought they were, on account of there being so many children made orphans and mothers made widows during the late war ; beside5!, the population of that county is made up' of a different class of people from those of our county. If Schuylkill can maintain her poor twelve years without levying and coUectingtaxes for that purpose, "why ehould not Columbia be able, with her rich and well-producing farm land, to main tain her poor without burdening the people by taxation? She can do it, is our honest conviction. " . . The experience hza been in 3Iontur county, that those townships not in the Poor House have had heavier taxes to pay in sup port of the Poor, than they had before the erection of the County Poor House, while the other townships had very light if any taxes to pay. Those not accepting have since seen their mistake, and the result has been, the townships remaining out petitioned to the Legislature last winter and procured aa act foe the erection of another Poor House in that county. They have been con vinced that it is cheaper and better to keep their paupers in a County Poor House than tare them promiscuously all over the coun ty in filth and idleness. The30 are facts and can't bo disputed.' The people of this coiiriy should cortidder the matter well in Hj its particulars and act in the premises in h a manner 23 not to bo regretted in the future. The "Republican" Editor Visits Boston, P.Iass. E3u The editor has been absent the past few days beini? called away to Boston, Mass. , on business. He will probably return this evening. Col. Co. Republican.- A very important mission, indeed I Of course the editor of the Republican had to go to Massachusetts to get an insight of the true line of policy to be pursued by the Dis unionists, and to obtain his proportionate share of the plunder secured by the Massa chusetts officer's during the late war. No doubt he went there by a special call, and as the special guest, of blundering BeastButler, or some other celebrated thief of modern times. Not a shadow of a doubt but that the editor of the Republican was to Massa chusetts ; because he is a fit subject to be found in the very lap and birth-place of treason. He is eminently fitted to associate with the military satraps who forsook the faith of their fathers for gain or insignia of office fitted entirely, is he, to be the com panion of the thieving minions who deserted their cause as Union officers, and engaged in wholesale robbery from a conquered foe, from banks, stores, street corners, private dwellings, from orphans, widows defence less women and children. Wonder how the Republican editor felt with a "loyal thief leading him through gilded halls, ornamented and furnished with the fruits of pillage? How did those mir rors and centre tables, belonging to Southern citizens, look in a Massachusetts parlor? How did the notes of those pianos sound in your ears f How did the Massachusetts ladies look, dressed in stolen calicoes and silks? How did the plundered cotton seem to work in those eastern Manufactories? How did those spoons, and other articles of silver-ware, look on a Massachusetts table, with the original and rightful Southern owner's names inscribed upon them? How does stolen Southern books and station ery sell in Massachusetts stores? And could you not get a supply of them in order that you might be able to sell at reduced prices? How did the gingling of the balance of that pilfered specie in Old Ben's pockets vibrate upon your earsr How did you feel, and where did you put your watch and "pocket book" when you retired at night, and did you find them next morning all right? Do the New England people generally appear to appreciate the luxuries, goods and effects, lately stolen from the citizens of the South, of which they are now in possession ? But one more question, although we do not de sire to weary your patience, did you bluh with shame when you looked in those costly and splendid mirrors which were stolen from the South ? We think such a trip would furnish an editor with a theme for a lengthy and inter esting editorial, and inasmuch as you have given notice of your momentous journey "to Boston, Massachtfeetts," we shall expect in your next issue to see you dilating upon it PepubHcan Consistency. For a number of years previous to the se cession of the Southern States the Aboli tionists of the North advocated the dissolu tion of the Union. From the rostrum they spoke for it, from the school houses and lecture rooms they advocated it, from the pulpit they preached and prayed for it, from their seats in the Legislatures, both State and National, they plead for it, from the people to Congress they petitioned for it, and declared that the Northern people could in no way induce, drive, or kick the South out of the Union. Thu3 stigmatizing, abus ing and threatening the people of the South ern States, until in 1861, when they took up the gauntlet of secession, which the Aboli tionists of the North had hurled at them with defiance; the Disunionists of theNorth.then, Lwith wild and wide-spreading enthusiasm, declared irom every nook and corner of the North, that secession should be prevented, that it was unauthorized by the Constitution, and ruinous to our system of Government. To the latter all parties in the North agreed and united in the overthrow of secession and rebellion. But no sooner had the rebellion been put down, and the idea of secession abandoned by the South, than the same old Disunion party of the North declared that the Southern States were out of the Union, and ought to be kept out And to this end the Disunion-Abolition party of the North are laboring at the present time. Their po sition needs no further comment at our hands. Just think of their course then and now. IlLxmorr ItwiU bo remem bered tl.at we staler! ia our last paper that tla cbcilca cheers 'elected a); our Spricg Elections will be the proper cSIcers to- coa Czzi V.:-2 corninj special t'cedorda Justs, cu q-i: Bills Apr roved bt Tin: President. The President has approved the bill to au thorize coinage of five-cent pieces, compos ed of nickel and copper. The coin is to be a legal tender in any payment to the amount of$l. There are to be no more issues of fractional notes of a less denominationation than ten cents. The President has also approved the bill providing that on and after the 16th inst there shall be levied, collected and paid on all horses, mules, cattle, sheep hogs, and other live animals imported from foreign, countries a duty of 20 per cent ad valorem; provided that any such an-mals now bona fide owned by resident citizens of the United States and now in the provinces of British America may be imported into the United States free of duty until the 27th of May. The President has also approved the bill to allow the Vice Admiral a Secretary, with the rank, sea pay and allowances of a lieutenant in the navy. The President has approved the joint res olution sending greeting to the Emperor of Russia, congratulating him on his escape from the hands of an assassin. . - The Notes op State Banks. After the 1st of June, the Notes of all State Banks will not be received in payment of debts at the counters of the National Banks, or on deposit, except at such a discount as will pay the expense of returning these notes to the Banks that issued them; and exchanging them for National Currency. This is done on account of jjie high tax imposed by the Federal Government on the circulation of all State Banks that is out after the date named. The effect of this will be to give us a uniform paper currency. ' ' Horace Armstrong, of Orange town-t"-?. e:ectocl Ccxxaty Superintendent of Our TO hereabouts. f xn an article written by us, (the sen ior) some time in February last, respecting the starting of a new paper in this place, we stated that it would be conducted by one Captain Moore, late of the Chronicle office, Washington, D. C. This announcement was made upon what we deemed good authority. But in the first issue of the new paper we were corrected in words as follows : "Captain Moore is not late of the Washington Chron icle office, never haviag had any connection whatever with that establishment" Not having " enlightened" his readers of his "whereabouts" previous to his coming to this county, we, in noticing the new pa per on its first appearance, spoke of the editor as of "some other place besides this." This was the best we could do. But since, in his last, he states ths.t, "at the out-break of the war we were editing a paper in New York, but abandoned that occupation, and enlisted as a private in the Thirty-Sixth Reg iment of New York Volunteers, in the month of April, 1861." Ha served his full term of enlistment in said Regiment, during which time, he says, he received promotions. As he would like to know of his contem poraries' "whereabouts" during that time, for one we will state that, at the breaking out of the war we were engaged publishing the "Star of the North," in Bloomsburg, Pa., and continued in that business until we enlisted in the Thirteenth Regiment, P. V., for the purpose of repelling the invasion made into our State by the rebel army, and a few weeks after our return home we were conscripted and served out our time in the One Hundred and Seventy-Eighth, P. M. We simply make mention of these facts to show that Captain Moore is not the only ed itor in this place that soldiered in the late war; and in doing this, we don't wish to be understood as claiming any credit to ourself or attempting to establish our loyalty, as we hold it is to no persons' credit who took any part in the late war. For ourself, we would have none of it Give it all to such men as Butler and Banks ; privates desire none, since the war has been prostituted to the purposes of disunion and abolitionism. . As to our partner, he remained at home like all good citizens, pursuing a legitimate business, doing more for the good of the country than many who claimed and seemed to be intensely loyal and desirous of mobbing all democrats who did not think, believe and act with them. Not exactly Mr. Hill. The Columbian neither claims to be a Republican paper nor is it on the "true Democratic track." It does not support Clymeil Hence it is not Democratic. Geary's name is not at its mast-head, consequently there is nothing left for any one to conclude but that it is a bastard institution and not on any "track." Democrat and Star. We would inform the Democrat and Star that we take the Columbian at its word. It says "it will support all principles and measures of policy which look to the consolidation of the Union,- the object announced by General Washington as the principal one had in view in forming the Constitution of the United States, and that on the other hand, public men who oppose the unity and harmony of the country, and who would keep alive sectional partisan hate to the injury' and detriment of the United States, are to be denounced and oppo.sed." As we understand it this is the Democratic ground, and we still insist the Columlnan, so long us it pursues this course, is on the true Democratic track. If we are in error, we hope the Democrat and Star will show us howand where. Scranton Register. The editor of the Scranton Register "still insists" that the Columbian is on the "true Democratic track." The mere assertion of the editor of the Register, backed by the quotation from the ' Columbian, does not make it so by any means. You have only to examine their paper closely, each week, and personally know th-3 factious clique, to be convinced that the paper is not on the "true Democratic track." It is true the Demo cratic party "support all principles and meas ures looking towards the consolidation of this Union," and the Columbian avowing this one plank, does that alone place them on the "true Democratic track?" We hold that it must still profess and do more before the Democracy can acknowledge them in any such position. We might quote a line or two from its last issue to show that our position is right, where it says: "By some the Columbian is pronounced a Republican, and by others a Democratic paper. Let us assure them again, that it is neither ; it is not a political, but is, and will continue to be, an independent Journal." Here we have it declaring that it is not a political 3 ournal. This being the case, how is it to be considered on any political "track" Dem ocratic or otherwise? In the same issue it alleges, "we shall stand by him (Johnson) and his friends." We would ask in all can dor, does it do this? Does it support Cly mer ? No. Is he not one of the Presi dent's supporters ? Does he not support all principles and measures looking towards the restoration of the Union? Certainly he does. Then why does it not support all who stand by tlie President and his friends and get clearly on the "true Democratic track?" A voice from Memphis ! a voice of wail ing that bears tidings of anarchy and blood ! Listen, O People, and you, ye demagogues who insist upon the equality of the races, blush for shame ! Hide your faces, ve mis creants who with cunning phrase and artful figure mislead the inmds of your partizans! Shut your mouths and be dumb in your in famy, ye who teach the negro that he is the political equal of the white man. Negro riots in Norfolk, in Paducah, in Memphis ! White men shot down, white women made widows, white children made orphans. The officers of the law slain in the discharge of their duty. Negroes killed in turn, and their dwellings burned to ashes. Such is the testimony of every day occurrences to the disastrous working of the plans of Ste vens, Sumner & Co. How long, O Lord, how long shall it le ere the scales shall fall from the eyes of Thy People ? S?" Even Stanton at last supports the President's policy. The Cabinet are now a unit, with the exception of Harlan, in favor of President Jobrisnn'a rlni Kr - - - WU WU warmly in favor of it and against the Radi cal programme, at; a recent cabinet meeting. Gov. Swann. of Maryland, has also written a letter in which Ihe diinrniTwatftA TtnAltmla Th ebal fa rcliin q.Bcr?ford Gazette, Counting the Cost. Our excellent contemporary, the Detroit Free Press thinks it highly proper to begin counting the cost of the Abolition party to the country. It remarks that in times past when he Government was administered by Presidents Adams, Jackson, Van Buren, Harrison, Polk, Taylor, Pierce and Buchan an the expenses of the nation were canvass ed with great care and deliberation, and limited to thesmallest sum possible. But it is a remarkable fact that since the advent to power of the Republican party the word ftjonomy has become obsolete. We never hear from the Republicans the objection which Clay and Webster, and their coin peers, used to urge with such eloquence that this or that bill should not be passed because it unncccessarily increased the expenses of the Government and the burthens of taxa tion on the people. In those days public men often counted the cost to the people of the measures they proposed, and more than one man was shipwrecked because he was reckless and extravagant with the public money. But the times have sadly changed. We never hear the question of how much it will cost started by any one belonging to the dominant party. The thousand and one schemes against the Treasury are received with favor, and millions upon millions are appropriated without a single thought of how the money is to be raised, or how many must suffer for the actual ncccessaries of life, because the Treasury of the United States must be filled to meet the expenses of government. Pittsburg Post. The Civil Rights Bf II . The Washington Constitution says : "Equal Rights. About noon yesterday two fat, greasy-looking, two-hundred-pound 'colored ladies,' evidently cooks for some cheap restaurant, got into one of the street cars at the Capitol, and the seats all being occupied by ladies and gentlemen they, the darkey women, began to turn up their noses and tlirow out slurs about 'white trash,' and finally one of them called : 'Cornductor, I want you to get 113 seats, de same as de oder passengers we're peoples,.we ain't does.' The conductor politely informed them that by the time the car got to Four-and-a-half street there would be seats, as most of the passengers were bound to Doctor Sunder land's Church ; but for the present there was no room. The largest negress then shouted, in her warmest strain, with anger depicted in every lineament of her counte nance : 'We am jist as good as any ob de white trash riding in dis yer kcare we ain't dops, and we want seats "jist de same as de white women and if de white trash was gsmmcn dey would git up and give a lady a seat, and if I can't git a seat 1'se gwang to git out Mr. Cornductor, stop de keare, stop de keare- we'se not gwang to ride wid sich trash.' The wenches bustled their sweaty and aromatic persons out of the car, much to the gratification of the passen pers lound to Doctor Sunderland's Church. The last seen of the two wenches they were peering down toward the Capitol, for anoth er car. Moral The equalization of color is no more relished by the Abolitionists of Doctor Sunderland's Church than the most radical anti-negro worshippers in our land. The negroes will soon learn their position, as water finds its level." A Hessian Captured. Gen. Knipe has routed the Hessian of the Harrisl urg Tele graph, "horse foot and dragoons." Berg ner, the slandcrerof the President, -.he libeller of the best and purestmen in this Common wealth, is superseded as postmaster at Har risburg, by Gen. Joe Knipe, a white Repub lican and a decent man. President Johnson removed Bergner and appointed Knipe, and although the Senate lingered awhile over the appointment, the influence of Senators Cowan and Buckalew finally effected its con firmation. Had it not been for the "indefa tigable exertions of these true friends of the Union and the Soldiers, the appointment of General Knipe would have buried in the tomb of the Capulets, by Sumner, Wade & Co. But the whole Democracy, combined with the conservative Republican vote of the Senate, secured its confirmation. We feel like shouting over this result Bergner has iied enough about us and almost "every other Democrat In the State, to cause a gen eral jolification at his downfall. Bedford Gazette Assault and Highway Robbery. We learn from the Clinton Republican, that on Sunday evening a week, between seven and eight o'clock, Mr. J. McCormick, who re sides below Lock Haven while on his way to town, was attacked near the dam by three men, who knocked him down with a stone or slung-shot, and rifled his pocket of thirty or forty dollars in greenbacks. The blow which was on the back of the head, a little above the right ear, rendered him insensible fir a moment, but inflicted no serious injury. The approach of Mr. Alexander Maxleni (who was only about fifty yards distant when the attack was made, and saw the whole transaction) frightend the villains, who ran toward town and made their escape. Three persons, J. A. Kunes and G. B. Nicholson, of Beech Creek, and Charles Hunter, a joung man from Columbia county, who were known to have been in that neigh borhood together about the time of the oc currence, and whose previous character rendered them liable to suspicion, were on Monday last arrested, and after a hearing before justice Batehelor, they were commit ted in default of bail of $1,000 each, and are now in the Clinton county jail to await their trial at the next Court Kunes and Nicholson are said to be old offenders, but Hunter who seems to be quite young, if guilty of participating in this criminal ad venture, may have been tempted into it against his better instincts and habits.
