THE AMERICAN CITIZEN. ]
Butler, Pa., Wednesday, July 17,18&7
We will give a general hittory of
the Mowing Match in flur next is«ue.
Musical.
On the evening of the sth inst., tho
lovers of music enjoyed a rich treat, and
were highly entertained in listening to
the sweet 6trains of instrumental and
vocal music by the pupils of William R.
Colbert.
The whole performance was good. A
majority of the class are quite youn
*bc\ng but children, yet perfect order pre
vailed in the class during the entiro time
of the concert. Each one of the class
was tastefully and modestly dressed, and
presented a very imposing appearance
of intellectual and youthful beauty.
Everything passed off pleasantly, and
in such perfect order, and the entire
performance was so well done that wc
could scarcely particularize, and we will
but mention two pieces separately. "The
Little White Cottage," played by Tillie
Sullivan, and sung by Libbie M'Junkin,
Maggie Heck, Mary Campbell and Adda
Colbert, and the piece titled, " I'm
Dying far from those I Love," played by
MaTy Reib«r,and sung by Tillie M't'and
lcss, Mary Reiber and Adda Colbert.
The players and singers in these two.
performed their parts admirably, and de
serve groat credit for the manner in which
(hoy acquitted theawelves.
In conclusion, we must say that v.e
have hoard but one expression in regard
to this entertainment, and that was one
of general satisfaction and applause.
This, we hope, is but the commence
ment of a series of musical concerts thai
•we may be favored with, by this class
and others that will no doubt join them
, liaso Hull.
A match game of I»ase Ball, the first
of a series of three games, to be played
between the Senior Club of Ccntreville,
and the Crescent of Ilarrisville, was play,
ed on the Bold of the former, in Centre n J

impartially and rendered general satisfac

antly, and good order prevailel. Though
the Contrcvillo club was beaten, they
*boved good pluck and manliness thiough ■
out the game. At tbo close, one of their

As Mr. Jacob Knauff, of Cranberry
township, was enguged in raising a barn
pn his pwu premises, on Saturday, June
29th, a pi<jce of timLertcn inches tquare
and abotit twelve, feet long, fell upon him j
from a height of twelve feet, knocking

arm was broken in two places above the
elbow, and his hoad injured ; bleeding

A few days ago, Mr. Peter Shira, an
old and much esteemed citizen of Wash

KS" In the late Mowing Match which
came off near Butler, Mr. T. It. !I*ll,
who had charge of the Union Mower,
mowed a portion ol' the giound assigned
to him with one horse, and another pur
tion without the use of a nick yoke.—
These experiments should establish three
points : That tho Union is a light run
ning machine ; that it has no side draft,
and that thoro ia but little weight on the
necks of the horses attached to the ma

ImportHntandSlgniflcaiil It ev
olution*.
The following are the resolutions
passed by the fa'i'ate Convention at Wil%
liamsport, on the 2*sth ujt. They are
plain and practical- Read them care
fully.
The Republicans ot" Pennsylvania,
appealing again to the people, take pleas
ure in recalling the repeated occasions in
which the voters of the Coa'monwealth
have sustained and ratified tht ir candi
dates and principles, and stron.gly im
pressed with the importance of thb issues
involved in the ensiling election, .make
this declaration of their opinions auJ
principles :
Fir*t. That, in the name df the nation
saved from treason, we demand security
against its repetition by exacting from
the vanquished such guaranteed as will
make treason so odious as to be forever
impossible.
Second. That., as in the past wc Cor
dially justified the admin'stration of
Abraham Lincoln in all necessary afcts
for the suppression of rebellion, we record
it as our judgment that the administra
tion of Andrew Johnson has been chiefly
faithless, because it has failed to try to
gather up and fix in the organic and
statute law the creat principles which
the war has settled, aud without whose
adoption as the rule of action peace is
but a delusion and a snure.
Third. That, in the completion of the
task of reconstruction so firmly as to be
perpetual, it is indispensable that traitors
hapten in the field shall not find a sanctu
ary in the courts ; that the laws shali not
be tortured to justify or palliate the
crimes of which the country's enemies
have been guilty, and that the law of
war shall be so distinctly declared by the
courts that no disturbing and paralyzing
doubts may ever be raised, as in 18(31,
affecting the essential rights of the gov
ernment or p«rgona! duties of citizens.
fourth. That thii convention, speak
ing for the Republicans of Pennsylvania,
unreservedly endoiscs the reconstruction
measures of the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth
Congresses as % Wits upon sound princi
ples, essentially just and wise, and prom*
ise an early legal and permanent restora*
tion of the rebel States to their share in
the government of the Union; that we
denounce and condemn the offers of
Piesidcnt Johnson, through his pliant
Attorney General dtd a majority of his
Cabinet, to evade these laws by inter
fering to obstruct and prevent their
enforcement in the spirit in which they
were passed, and that we call upon Con
gress, soou to meet, promptly and
decisively to dispose of this new nulli
fication.
Fifth. That the thauks of the loyal
men nf this Commonwealth are hereby
tendered to Muj. Gen. Sheridan and Maj.
Gen. Sickles for their publicly declared
unwillingness to be made instrumental,
in the startling and truthful words of the
former, " in opening, under the Presi
deutial declaration, a broad, macadamized
way for perjury and fraud to travel on,"
iu pursuit of the coveted repossession of
political power iu the rebel States; and
that this convention confidently expects
that General Grant will vindicate his
past tic or d by cordially sustaining them
in their patriotic efforts to execute the
luw.
Sixth. That President Johnson further
merits our condemnation for his reckless
pardon and attempted restoration to polit
ical rights of muuy of the chief conspir
ators agaiust the Union; and that
especially his persistent efforts to compel
the release of Jefferson .Davis without
question for his Crimes, were a reproach
to the adiniuistratiou of justioc, and an
insult to the whole loyal people of the
nation.
Seventh. That warned by past misfor
tune, we ask that the Supreme Court of
the JSlate be placed iu harwouy With the
political opinions of the majority of the
' people, to the eud that the court may
never again, by unjust decisions, seek to
set aside laws vital to the nation, nor
imperil the safety of the public secureties,
| uor impair the operation of the bounty,
pension and tax laws, which were requi
red for the public defence; nor in any
waj thwart measures which were essens
tial to the public protection ; but that,
on the other hand, it may become and
remain a fit and faithful interpreter of
public faith, an impartial and fearless
exponent of the equal rights of man.
Eighth. That protection being a car
dinal feature of the Republican creed,
we trust that such legislation will bo
secured at the earliest period as will
afford adequate protection to American
industry.
Ninth. That, in conformity with the
pledges given last fall by both candidates
for Governor, we now demand the enact
ment of a free railroad law, by which the
enterprise of our people may be stimula
ted, and the resources of the Common
wealth developed.
Tenth. That in Governor John TV.
Geary we recognize an honest and cour.
ageous public servant, who, in the chnir
of State, is adding freshness to the laurels
gallantly won in war.
Eleventh. That the gratitude of the
people to the soldiers and sailors, whose
bravery met and overthrew the slave
holders' rebellion, should have repeated
and emphatic expression ; and that we
heartily disapprove of and condemn the
coarse of the Secretary of the Treasury
in postponing and ignoring the just
claims of our brave defenders upon the
bounty of the Government, awarded to
them by the National Congress.
Twelfth. That in the Hon. Henry W.
Williams, v>f Allegheny county, we pre
sent to the people of Pennsylvania an
eminent jurist; one in every way well
qualified for the responsible duties of the
office of Judge of the Supreme Court;
able as a lawyor; impartial, prompt, and
thorough as a judge; honest, upright,
without suspicion as a man, and loyal
and unwavering in his devotion to the
cause of his country.
The resolution pertaining to the organ
ization of the State Central Committee
was discussed at length, and finally
adopted, as follows:
Resolved, That the thanks of the con
vention be tendered to Col. Jordon for
the efficient manner in which he per'
formed the duties of chairman of the
State Central Committee for the past
year, and that he be reappointed for the
coming year ; and that, in case of his
inability or unwillingness to accept the
position, the president of this convention
shall appoint the chairman, and that the
remainder of the committee shall be ap
pointed in the usual way, consisting of
the same number as that of last year.
