Ylie Constitution.
The recently - developed Democratic
ljve for the Constitution is more than
wonderful. Only a short time since, and
jhij 8ntae party was stoically indifferent
as to what bccima it either Constitution
or country whether they both triumph
ed with Grant ever Lee, or succumbed
with Grant to Lee. Hut all oa a sudden,
their constitutional love returns, but it ia
a constitutional love for power. It well
enough judt at this juncturo to review
some of the acts which tho Democratic
party have given their country a prece
dents. Firt, the purchase of territory from
foreign powers. Ii'authority for such an
act written id the Constitution ? Or does
it result from the very nature of govern
ment 't Of course, we endorse the eser
eise of such power, Rut -the question we
ask is from what part or section of the
Constitution does it arise ? Next, from
what part of the Constitution came ttie
authority for arresting, trying, and con
demning to slavery before aUuited States
Commissioner, without semblance of trial
by jury, and without the privilege of ap
peal, a citizen of a Northern Scale, a? was
authorized to be done and was done under
tho Fugitive Slave Law ? Or whence
camo General Jackson's authority to de
clare martial law in New Orleans ? J erry
Black, we believe, is the author cf a pan
egyric cn Jackson. Cau he, or any cf hia
party, put his finger on the clause of the
Constitution warranting such an act ?
Senator Douglas justified Jackson thus:
'Thero aro exigencies in the history (if
nations when necessity becomes the para
mount hw, to which all other considera
tions must yield." But perhaps Douglas
was not an "orthodox Democrat Dem
ocrats now pronounce such teaching her
esy. Ye hold Douglas to have been
right. We hold Jackson to have been
right, and Jefferson right in the Louir-iana
purchase, and the Fugitive Slave Law an
outrage on all law and all good govern
ment. But Democrats delight in all three
of these acts. Perhaps it is the exclusive
privilege of Democracy to act outside the
pale of the Constitution, as they norr say
of every act which has not an ezprass
warrant in the worda of that vcaerablc
instrument.
Tlie IbJqulioug Train Z
Few men so uninpcrtziit cs G20. F.
Train havo achieved in so shcrt a tima
such a notoriety as he. Ilia latest exploit
may involve the govercmant in serious
embarrassments. It i3 one of the misfor
tuuca belPDging to governments which
consider themselves bound to protect all
their citizens thai Any hair-brained, eU'er
vescent fellow, whom the xtCtU could
ioe and never miss may involve hi
country Ln dispute with half the globe.
It is even asserted in this instance that
Train went to Ireland in order to iavolve
the government and make a test case
whether or not a foreign power mzy ar
rest an American citizen for words or acts
epoken or done on American soil.
Treated on its simple merits, the arrest
of Train is an outrage of no slight diiutn
fious. What sentiments he holds, what
views ho .expresses within the limits of
hia own country, are not subject to revis
ion by any foreign authority. To admit
any such teaching would be to place all
our boasted freedom of speech aud action
at the mercy of foreign power. So un
justifiable seems the notion that it is
hardly possible that his arrest will bo
indorsed by the British government.
Sample Cases.
The recent partial success cf thc
Dcmccratic party in New York and Ohio
carry with them at least incidental good,
by showing to the people what might be
expected were they completely in the r.s
cendant. In New Y01I:, a Democratic
Assembly votes 3750,000 to tLe relief of
ikoe in New York and Brooklyn ihipwn
c.it of cniployaieu. Whereat tho New
Yoik W01LI cries out : ;Sup, gentlemen I
New York city and Brooklyn arc not the
pely places in which there is suffering.
You were pledged to economy, and is this
ccvcouiy." Sure c.rgl'; tIiat economy ?
In Ohio, after electing J'ge Ihurman
to the U. S. Senate, tie chief ei.d of the
Democracy ecems to be considerably li
ferent frutu what the catechisms put down
&. the chief end cf man. In the furncr,
it is to prifix the word white in every
statute where it would be possible to con
strue .ho word. as having particular ref
erence to white.-:. . A minor aim is to
re district the State, ko :is to give thirteen
out of eighteen Congressional districts to
themselves that is, to make five addi
tional" Democratic district., by a process
of gerrymandering knowu only to Democracy.
At Their Old Trie Sis.
The Slate Guard publishes the follow
ing privato circular issued by Mr. Wallace,
Chairman of tho Democratic Stat Com
mittee, who it wi'l be remembered mado
himself famous last fall by systematically
conducting the election, so fara3 his party
was concerned, on the contract system.
Vote broker were .unbluahlngly. offered
so much a head. WTo hope our friends
will fco to it that the Spring elections are
not suffered to go by default. The Dem
ocrats appreciate the importance of hav
ing control of the e'.ection officers who are
to hold the next Presidential election.
We therefore ay to our Republican
friends, be vigil act and wee that none but
honest men are elected to this important
position. Here is Wr ullagea circular ;
"Circular 1. 18CS Private
"Democratic Static Com. Hooms,
1 Cleaufield, Pa., Dec. 10, 18G7.
4DeakSi: Tha tpria$ elections aro
approaching, and, it i 3 of 7ital importance
to uh, iu the great contest now pending,
that we should se-n'.re in every locality our
just sbars cf tho electiou officers judges,
iuppector, assessors, and constables. I
write to call your especial attention to
this subject. I n-jsd not attempt to dem
onstrate its importance, all appreciate it.
Let beg t.'uu you and your committee
will give this subject prompt and earnest
attention, Regard it 23 a busiuesa matter,
and act accordingly. Arouse our friends
in every district; show them how power
ful this we a poo. ia when effectually used.
Use the ueoessary means to carry every
sure and doubtful district for u. Wher?
we are in a minority place a man of high
character, well informed, and courageous
on tho board as our inspector; in such
districts see that our V2ry be3t man aro
selected. It is a great error to fill Buch
places with weak men.
"Lists of doubtful men, and those who
voted with us in 1867, for the first time,
with their townships and post ofiiaes, can
bo made very useful. Furnish ma all ox
these that you can obtain.
"There arc a great nmny aliens ready
for naturalization throughout the State ;
all must be naturalized. Your labors and
mine will be lessened, if ycu will obtain
their names and residence at an early day,
and give me the total number in your

"In arranging for your spring elections
you can obtaiu thia information with com
parative ease.
"If you have not already furnished me
with the names arid pest effiee address of

"Very respectfully, yours,
"VM. A. WALLACE, Chairman."
Reconstruct iou.
The first clause 01 toe new Reconstruc
tion act declares that neither the Execu
tive nor the Courts shall recognize the
pretended State governments created
under Mr. Johnson's military proclama
tions as valid. The only need or aim of
this enactment is to deprive Mr. Johnson
of a pretext for involving the couotry ia
strife and bloodshed. Congress had
already enacted that his psewlo State
concerns were void. But he has constant
ly manifested a desire to override, in some
way, this determination of Congress. To
prevent any ' future efforts to do so,
Congress makes further opposition to it3
laws ou hia part so distinctly and palpably
criminal that, should he attempt it,
impeachment would become the inevitable
remedy.
The second flection places the five mili
tary districts undpr the command of Gen.
Grant, but in no way disturb the
previous and necessary subordination of
Geu. Grant to the Presideut, or .inter
feres with his supremacy as Commandar-iu-Chief
of the Army aud XzY?.
The third section repeals thos& clauses
of the lteconstruction act which authorizes
the President to appoint civil officers at
the South, and authorizes the General of
the Army to appoint them.
The fourth section forbids the President
to use the Army and Navy in defense of
the abolished proiional governments.
Tiie fifth section renders any person
who interferes with the order3 of the
General-in-Chief liable to punishment as
for a high misdemeanor.
The firm stand taken by Congress
iDbpirm confidence that the Union will
speedily be restored on the basis of equal
right lor all loyal men. If duly perse
vered in, the President will be found a
lcr s formidable obstacle than he has
seemed.
Tiik Maryland Legislature succeeded
ou the 17th, after several days' balloting,
in electing a United States Senator. The
successful candidate is not Gov. Swan,
but a gentlcmau named Hamilton, who
received 50 votes, Swan 40, and Merrick
5. It i-1 well knowu that Governor Swan,
alter havii)' keen elevated to position by
the Union men o Maryland, proved false
to them, and he was cuUy instrumental
in restoring the elective IrauThi.-e to the
rebels of Maryland, hy which Unio irtcn
were overpowered and persecuted at tuP
polls. For this betrayal he was elected
to the Uuited States Senate la it year, but
fearing that the Lieutenant Governor,
wiVJ would take his place as Governor of
Marylau'l vva3 au honest maa and would
not turn his k-ck upon those who gave
him honor and portion, ho resigned the
United States Senators. o doubt with
a promise that the party wouJd elect him
this year. This fact was anuouiced oo
tiu; floor of the House for the purpose of
whipping the members into hia support,
but it tailed to have the desired effect,
and Governor Swaa receives the fate of
all traitors being completely shelved.

1'ews Summary.
A New Literary Enterprise.
Great liberality, on the part of the pub
lishers. 3100,000 to bo awarded to the
subscribers. Novel plan to induce a large
circulation. '
We have been favored with advance
sheeta of a new monthly magazine, issued
on an entirely new plan by Messrs. Evans
& Co., publishers. ' ' -
From our knowledge of tho parties en
gaged in thia enterprise, we feel justified
in asserting that their undertaking will
be a success, and iu all respects satisfac
tory to the public.
In addition to the attractions of a fre9h
and interesting monthly, containing arti
cles from the best authors in this country
and Europe, as the title indicates, the
publishers draw upon the whole world for
topics cf interest, and offer at inducements
(if such were needed) a "dividend system"
of au entirely original character, in which
all their patrona will participate. This
department is under the personal super
vision aud exclusive control of Mr. Geo.
Gr. Evang, long and favorably known as a
gentleman of experience, capability, en
terprise and probity. We commend to all
a perusal of the "prospectus," wherein the
diatiaativo ffyifurex of the enterprise are
fully set forth, feeling satisfied that the
result will be an immense circulation of
their new monthly, "The World at Home."

The Methodist Church in the United
States has a variety of divisions which,
we believe, are peculiar to itself. Other
churches are divided by differences of
religious belief tho Baptist Church, for
instance, into Regular, Anti-Mission,
Seventh Day, Six Principle, Freewill,
River Brethren, Dunkera, Mennonites,
aud Winebrennarians. The Presbyterians
are divided into tho Old Sehool, tho New
School, Cumberland, United, and Asso
ciate Reformed. The Quakers are Ortho
dox and Hicksita. So the Methodist
Church is Episoopal, Protestant, and
Wealeyan. But the latter Church is also
divided, unlike other denominations, by
political boundaries into the M. E. South
and the M. E. North. Beside this bound
ary division we have another division of
Church iu the Southern States whioh may
be called either "politioal" or "ethnolog
ical" the division according to race.
The Methodist Church South has a
distinct organization for its colored mem
bers. Thaddeus Stevens is in his seat at
the opening of the House every moraing,
and though rarely rising to speak, he is
constantly surrounded by members, who
consult his judgment ou current topics
aod duties. A few day3 ago, while a
noisy Copperhead member was shouting
his love of the white rebels South aud
his hate of the black man, a gentleman,
who was listening to the tirade, said to
Mr. Sievens, "I wonder what that angry
Democrat wants V "Why," said the
old man, with a quiet smile, "what he
want.- moat is hrauizV' Mr. Stevens
cannot ascend the stairs leading to the
Capitol, so two stout fellows are employed
to carry him up. The other day as they
were bearing along their uot very heavy
burden, he turned to them and said :
"Have you ever thought, my friends,
who will be kind enough to take all this
trouble for me when you two invalids
havo died ?" The men laughed heartily
at the veteran's grim philosophy.
The anecdote recently told of General
Grant, wherein it was stated that at one
time he supplied firewood to Congressman
Blow, of Missouri, and that he used to
haul wood into St. Louis for sale, and
when it was disposed of he would drive
down to the shore of the river and shovel
in a load of sand to take back to hia farm,
is commented upon as follows by the N.
Y. Sun :
"He has been as much a laboring man
3 ever President Lincoln was, working
wiih his own hands quite aa successfully
as that great bjate.-man and wise patriot
ever did when spiittl: rails in his earlier
manhood. What a remurk:iMe thing that
two of the greatest men over produced by
our country, and above all the two ho
have been raised up to guide the nation
through the crisis of tho last five years,
should have thus come from the ranks of
the toiliog masses of the great .West.
Both men of the people, their names will
be illustrious as long as the world stands."
Horace Greely's twenty-fourth
recollection of his own busy life,, has
reference to beggars and borrowers, of
which two classes he helices the latter
to be the greater nuisance. New York, he
says, ia "the metropolis of beggary."
The worst beggars are those who go about
soliciting alms for churches, seminaries,
libraries, and the like. Bui it is borrow
ers Greeley recalls with the liveliest
disgust aud indignation. Once a "gush
ing youth" wrote to him asking for Poe'a
autograph. Greeley replied that ho had
but one autograph of Poc, that it waa on
a promissory note, had cost fifty dollars,
but would bo sold for half that amount."
The Tribune Almanac for 1SG8 ia
upon our table. The astronomical infor
mation ia very complete, while the polit
ical and statistical history of 1867, em
braced within its covers, has beeu pre
pared with gtCat care. Thia almanac haa
become an authornj on political statistics
which we never heard questioned. It is
indispensable to the politiciaa who wishes
to keep posted on election return3, &c.
The Montana Post, of the 21st of De
cember, contains the following : "The
Governor appointed and the Council yes
terday confirmed aa notary public of "Old
Baldy" district, Madison county, Montana
Territory, Col. A. K. M'Clure, late of
Pennsylvania. This ia the first Republi
can confirmation."
Gold ia quoted &t 133.
Stanton Reinstated.
Hon. Edwiu . M. Stanton was, on the
13th hist., reinstated us Secretary of War
by a solid vote of the Kepublican Sena
tors. Possession of the office was imme
diately given by Gen. Grant, and Mr.
Stanton ia now discharging the duties of
the position.
i The Press of the 14tb inat. says, in re
gard to the subject:
"Stanton has been reinstated, and un
der circumstances that are significant
and auspicious. Not a Republican vote
was cast against the measure not a Re
publican Senator quivered or faltered.
All honor to the men who lead the col
umn in thia decisive action. The news
will brace every Republican heart, and
nerve every Republican arm from Maine
to Texa8 ; and to the Union men of the
South, betrayed at the Capital of the na
tion, and acofled at and trodden on at
home, it sounds like the promise of ad
vancing relief. It cornea like the news
of Gettysburg, and will awaken, from one
end of tho country to the other, the ech
oes of the cheers that rung out along Ap
pomattox. "The good wprk ia a triumphant vindi
cation of the principles and morals of the
Republican party. It ia worth more than
a State carried in an ordinary election.!
The unity, spirit, and energy evinced by
Congresa will do more to reassure the
public confidence and inspiro the loyal
heart than a dozen detached elections in
different parts of the land.- Our columns
are unbroken and aggressive. The result
can be but one way.
"CoBgresa has nobly answered Grant'a
private letter, whose brave words are now
historic, and the leadership of the nation
ia in full sympathy and.accord."
Late Washington correspondence con
tains the following: -
"The President continues hia eullen
inactivity in the War Office, so far as his
official acts are concerned, and while he
does cot refuse to recognize Mr. Stanton
aa Secretary of War for fear of impeach
ment, persists iu ignoring him and pro
crastinating the business now peuding
before him in which the War Depart
ment 'a interested. In an unofficial man
ner, however, he is working very hard to
influence Mr. Stanton to resign, and haa
authorized the statement to be printed
that he expecta to receive hia resignation
before the end of the present week. He
also saya that Gen. Grant haa advised Mr.
Stanton to resign, but thia statement, like
many others emanating irom that source,
ia doubted. In the meantime the heads
and subordinates of the executive depart
ments are transacting business with the
War Office as usual, and Mr. Stanton's
requisitions on the Treasury . as Secretary
of War are honored at sight. There
seems to bo no outlet to the difficulties
which embarrass the Administration in
this matter, and 1 think it can be asserted
with truth that the present situation will
remain unchanged until the reconstruc
tion of the rebel States is accomplish
ed, as I have reason to believe that
Mr. Stanton will not Tesign until the
urgent necessity for hia reinstatement
shall have passed. It ia possible, how
ever, that Mr. Johnson may manufacture
a case which will involve the question of
the constitutionality of the tenure of office
act ; and, without pretending to know
anything about tho intentions of the
Administration, I think it safe to say
that such a contingency ia the only loop
hole through which A. J. expecta to
escape from his preseot ridiculous dilem
ma.
Few Persons Can Make a better
payiiiy investment, of a dollar and a half,
than to send it for a whole year's subscrip
tion to tho American Agriculturist which
is now entering upon its 27th asnual
volume. Though very good iu the past,
the quality of the first number for 18GS
shows that this superb journal has still
better things in store for ihia year's
volume. The paper has been kept up to
its full standard of excellence, bj' the
associate editors, and we learn from the
number before ua that Mr. Orange Judd,
the long time editor in chief, haa just
returned from hia lengthy tour in Europe,
rested and reinvigorated, and that he will
resume hia labora upon the Agriculturist,
;y'Mi no diminution in the recent strong
editorial fprce that havo so ably conducted
the' paper in his absence. Thia journal
has already a circulation averaging half
a dozen subscribers for every Pot GfSoe
in the United States and British America,
but we presume that in its new, spacious,
and permanent headquarters, at 245
Broadway, there will be room to supply
all new comers. The Urge feize of the
Agriculturist, its great number of beautiful
and instructive engravings, its vaat store
of useful, practical, and reliable informa
tion about all matters pertaining to the
Farm, the Garden, and the Household;
its pleasing and instructive department
for Children and Youth, with its unspa
ring exposures of the humbuga and
swindlers that abound, all render this
journal a very valuable, and almost indis
pensable aid to every Man, Woman, and
Child, in City, Village, and Country. The
terms, owing to its immense circulation,
aro put down to the very low price of
$1,50 a year, or four copies for $5. Take
our advice, and send for it a year, or, at
least, send 15 cents, and get a post-paid
specimen copy. Orange Judd & Co., 245
