TItc Tariff Robbery. While the Mongrel party keeps up a ter rible din and clatter about the poor nrgro, it does not forget to pile the burdens on the tack of "white labor. It spends from twelve to twenty or thirty millions of dollars yearly ia taking care of lazy negroes, which is -A r T, Vn.i r t iuuuu ;yuii v 1 aaia caiuiugaui Lire yXJVi white workiDgmen. When it arrarrges its tariff, it is also very ready to exempt the articles of the rich, while it piles on the tariff upon those goods that are mainly con sumed by the poor. Even a Mongrel paper, in alluding to this matter, exclaims loudly against It, and gives some examples of the atrocious swindle of the present tariff bill bow before Congress. " Woolen coatings, the cost of which is $1 08 per yard, are to be raised twenty-fonr per cent higher: but the fine and costly qualities, the gold price of which is $2 40. are raised- only elere per cent; and still finer qualities of the gold cost of 2 60, are raised only ten per cent The coarse coat ings are to pay from eighty to one hundred and twenty percent in dutie?,lnt the finer and more costly are only burdened with from sixty-five to seventy per cent. 'The same is true of carpets. Tlie duty en the high-priced carpets is not raided at all ', that on low-priced carpet is raised ten cents per square yard, aboat five per cent. In the same manner, there is no increase on silk dross goods, which are bought by the wealthy ; but on small articles of silk, such ay ribbons, which are used by the poor as well, there is an increase of ten per cent I5gh-priccd linens are "even put under a diminished duty ; they are to pay five per cent less than now. The commonest kinds of cutlery are to pay from one hundred to two hundred rer cent duty, that is to-say, farmers and me chanics,' and working people generally, are to be made" to pay ly this atrocious tariff twice or three times as much as the artielrs can be imported for; for, of course, the home manufacturer will at once pat np his prices to the highest limit at which he can just undersell' the importer who has these duties to pay." If a Democratic paper had made these assertions, it would have been accused of slandering "the God and moraL'ty" party, butheie it is From their own journals.

"We are led to these remarks, by a peru sal of the proceedings of the so-called Con gress, and the innumerable instances of out rage and indecency with which they are al most daily characterized. Liar, scoun drel, traitor, and similar phrases, are not at all unusual Parliamentary epithets, em ployed by these loyalist of great moral ideas, in debate, upon the floor of Congress? and that too without even reproof or punish ment Cowardly baseness always tends to lower degredation. Such h the status of the present so-called Congress. How can the friends of law, order, and the Constitu tion, the only Union men of the country expect much, if any, improvement in the character of that body in the next so-called Congress, after the admission to its pale of such specimen of immaculate purity and proverbial honesty as Butler and Cameron ! A loyal paper before us, in discussing" upon this subject, and whose sentiments we fully endorse says: '"By the ruling of the party in power at the Capitol, it is in order to utter slanders ; but it is not in or dea to brand the slanderer as such a person most richly deserves. It is not easy to im agine a more debased condition of Congres sional morals than this fact presents, and it will not be denied that such men as Thad. Stevens, Charles Sumner, and some others now regarded as party leaders, could not have talked of mea superior to themselves in every manly quality forty years ago as they now do. The true principle of gentlemanly cour tesy and honor is to avoid any imputation or insult which is not well deserved, and to feel bound to give proper redress to every one assailed. Christian meekness may induce pious men to endure insults, but a true feeling of Christianity will prevent its possessor from uttering any slanderous or malicious asser tion ; and consequent!, the utterer of false hood cannot screen himself from the rebuke of an antagonist by assumed humility. Tkal which in a tan ren we e:itiil pstienea T pate. coli cowardice in noble breasts." There can be no surer indication of the degradation of a political party than may be soen in the attempt to justify those who utter cowardly slanders against their politi cal opponents, and have not the courage to resent the brand of falsehood when it is fixed upon the offender's brow. Slander is the chief weapon of the leaders of tho Radical party, and their cowardice is as gross as that weapon is base. 'Tlifir hearts are their tongues are free; Their souls too bae for generous ire ; Tlielr blades too keen for noble use ; Tbeir shield and buckler arc abitf. Governments for the Southern States. A measure has been introduced into the so-called Congress, at Washington, and which the Rump vsvrjpcrs are zealously la boring to enact into what they call law, un der the cognomen of "The Territorial Bill,' or "Governments for the Rebel States." This is one of the most infamous attempts to destroy our Liberties and Constitutional Government that has ever been attempted. This bill deliberately proposes to utterly de stroy the State Governments of the ten Southern States, lately in rebellion against the General Government, by ignoring the authority of their State and Municipal Offi cers, declaring the commission of the said Officers null and void and the aforesaid States nugatory and conquered territory. It is also proposed in the Bill, by the Radical Rump Congress, so-called, to invest themselves with the power in the teeth cf the Constitution to re-ir.angurate Military Despotism over the entire Southern people, by declaring the 3Iilitary Power superior to the Civil Law, establishing Martial Law and ruling the country by Courts-Martial and that at the mercy of loyal Yankee Generals. We are opposed to this infamous Yankee proposition. It is wrong in principle, cow ardly in conception, and would be violative of every law, human and Divine, There is no shade of warrant, for the enactment of such a law, in the Constitution, and would establish a pure Military Despotism, in which no right of a citizen would be recognized or respected. Tl&e Constitutional Amendment. The loyal papers announce with great eclat, that the Legislature of Pennsylvania, has passed the so-called "Constitutional Amendment." This is only another usurpa tion of despotic power, by the reckless fa natics at IJarrisburg, and a gross insult to, and misrepresentation of, the will of the sov ereign people of this commonwealth. We venture the prediction, without the hazard of sound judgment, that the ratification of the so-cailed Amendments to the Constitu tion, is in -direct opposition to the wishes of two-thirds of the voters of Pennsylvania, and they will hold these demagougues re sponsible for the abuse of every such act of Legislative misrepresentation.

Editors Democrat and Star: I have read your journal the past year, as I hav the other journal of the County for over a Quarter of a century, and claim to have carefully scrutinized their contents and stu died their respective characters anl learned something of 'their moral and political status. I have always found the old Desiocrat and Star, as the time-honored organs of the great Democratic Party of Columbia Coun ty, true to their high mission by a bold and manly defense of Law, Liberty and Consti tution, at all times, full of life and spiritedly conducted, and "Democratic under all cir cumstances." These are the indispensable ingredients to constitute a live "Family Newspaper," and I take pleasure in renew ing my subscription for another year, in ad vance, as every good Democrat and well wisher of his country should do. Speaking of the various County papers, it may not be out of place, although some what invidious, to remark, that your Ga zetteer is the or.ly one which fully and fairly represents the true sentiments of the masses of our people. Not so with Dr. John's dis union Republican. It was conceived in sin and brought forth in iniquity, the work of the enemy whose end is evil only and that continually. In a word, the Democrat and Star, it is generally admitted, compares favorably with any sheet printed in any of the North ern counties, and surpasses many of them in material interest. May it continue to grow in favor and command, as it justlr de serves, increasing influence and liberal pa tronage. An Old Democrat. Catawissn, Feb. 9, 1SG7. . The Express Robbery. The parties arrested for the robbery of the wagon of the Express Company on the evening of Janu ary 9th, were brought into Court last Satur day morning, when they pleaded guilty to the indictment against them, and were sen tenced to pay a fine of ?50 each, with costs and undergo an imprisonment of five year? in the Eastern Penitentiary. The sentence of these men upon evidence the most positive, in three weeks after the commission of the crime with which they were charged, is an achievement well worthy of note. It was brought about by Mr. Geo. II. Bangs, General Superintendent of Piek erton's National Police Agency, Col. E. B. Harvey, of Wilkesbarre, and Mr. F. Love joy, of the Express Company. The credit is especially due thco gentlemen, because they alone planned, and were cognizant of all the facts in the case, and alone knew what means were employed to bring to justice the guilty parties. Great credit is also due our borough police, under Chief Stevens, as well as others, who were efficient in executing, although ignorant of the precise plans of Superintendent Bangs. Luzerne Union. Is it Retribution ? During tha war Bollmyer, a Democratic editor in Dayton, Ohio, was murdered by a black hearted Ja cabin, who was acquitted by a radical Jury and Judge !

The House Committee on Public expend itures are preparing their report on the New Yonc aivd Boston Ciistom-Ilouse frauds. It is said it will disclose some gigantic swindling in tne oderations ot the latter, which will not be very creditable to the management of that institution. The report is anxiously looked for, and will, no doubt, create quite a sensation in Custom-Ilouse circles. confirmations. It was stated last evening, by a prominent Iladieal Senator from the West, that his pariy in the Senate had agreed to confirm no appointment inaue to fill a vacancy caused by the removal of a Radical office-holder in any part of the country. Washington, Feb. Cth INPEMXIFICATTION FOR STOLEN PROPERTY.

Washington Feb. 1th, ASHLEY MAKES A TERSONAL EXPLANATION. The House and the galleries were highly amused this morning by-a personal explana tion made by Ashley in consequence of a letter written by "Mack," the Washengton correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, wherein he reports a conversation between the "great impeacher" his colleague (Mr. Bingham), and Mr. Stevens, a3 to the or iginator of the impeachment scheme. "Mack" charges that Ashley admitted, upon being catechised by Bingham, that Ben Butler and Steveii3 bad been consulted with reference to the introduction ot the resolu tion, and that it was made general in its terms, so as to allow an investigation into the conduct of Grant, as well as that of the President COMPENSATION TO SLAVE OWNERS. Mr. Trumbull, of Illinois, from the Judi ciary Committee, reported without amend ment the House bill suspending the opera tions of the act of authorizing the appointment of a commission to award the S300 compensation to loyal slave owners, for slaves taken into the volunteer service, and also discharging the commissioners ap pointed under said act.

The shipments for the week amounted to S226.3o5.50, of which $100,000 was sent to the As?stint Treasurer at New York, and the balance to national banks and others.

A special detective agent of the Treasury was recently sent to the Canada border, among the Custom Houses. He succeeded in making arrange ments with twenty-two revenue officers (all "loyal men," too, no doubt) to engage in smuggling goods from Canada into the Uni ted States. The Yankees have row a good enough Reciprocity Treaty with Canada, in the present infamous tariff. They smuggle all the foreign goods they need from Cana da, and compel thVrest of tKccountry to pay exorbitant prices ibrtKeir own manufactures.
