COL. A. K. MCCLURE, of the Chambers
burg Repository, has started for a tour
over the far Western State; and Territc;
ries, in company with his wife and son.
During his absences, he will write a series
of letters to the N, Y. Tribune, in fulfill
ment of a special ergagoment. The
Colonel is one of the ablest
_writers in the
country, and we shall look forward to
his correspondence with rare interest.
A rRIVATI letter trom Philadelphia in
forms us that Judge Sharswood, of that
city, has consented to accept the Demo
cratic nomination for Supreme Judge, in
case it is tendered to him by the June
Convention. His friends have long urged
him to permit the use of his name, and
he has 'finally agreed,with the understand*
ing that under no circumstance is he to
be looked upon as seeking a nomination.
The eminent fitness of Judge Sharswciod
will be conceded by every laWyer in the
State, and it seems likely that he will en
ter the Convention with a powerful,
tier:haps, successful support. have
seen no reason, nowe..., mange our
conviction heretofore expressed, that the
candidate should be a man not
prominently known in our State politics;
and justice, if not policy, would seem to
_dictate that he be taken from the West or

Tint RIGHT SPIRIT.
The ae6timent which should actuate
every Democrat from this time onward, is
one of zealoue,'undeviating determination
to wrest the; control of the Government
from the Radical's at every bacqrd. We
have a vast majority of the people of the
whole- country With us, and it will be a
burning stigma upon ue, and prove us to
be the greatest cowards of modern time.,
if we permit a minority of Radical fanatics
to rule the nation forever. There has been
too muck truckling to popular frenzy—too
little unyielding resolve to stand up in
defence of. the right, let the sacri
fice needed be what it may 2—a
kind of hugging a heartfelt sorrow—
's lacrymose mourning over a "boat cause,"
as if that could avenge wrones, repair in.
juries, or restore rights. - We have met
some such determined mourners, that it
seemed to us that they would actually re.
get to see the Democratic party return to
power, for fear it would deprive them of
the luxury of Shedding tears! -They actu=
ally seen- to take a delight in insisting
that "all is lost," and often act as if they
felt offended, because others do not feel as
'blue;' and as, desponding as themselves.
There is a great deal to dampen ardor
and cause mistrust of the future. But it
is not patriotic, to sit down -sand folding
our hands in listless idleness, insist that
"all is lost." All is not lost, so long as men
are true to themselves, no matter how ail-
verse may be the present situation of of
fairs. If every person opposed to the
Radical party were imbued with the spirit
of true patriotism, how soon 'we should
- scale the walls of 'treason and put its co.
korts to flight. It is the activity of the
Radical Sand the -listless indifference of
those who cry "all is lost," that now proe-
tratea the Democratic party. if Democrats
were to work as earnestly and Vigorously
— u our opponents, we should soon wrest
the government- from the hands of the
Phihatin'es, and restore ' the Union to its
- • poper condition. .We rejoice that there
re some, at least, who see this truth dis
- thactly and vindicate it in bold and elc
qient words

Constitutional Convention in New York,
large portions a the Democracy refused

been to give the Radicals aw enormous
toaio( , ity in the Convention, and their or
gang everyvrhere are pointing to the fact,
with rterse glee, as an indication of t6'
increasing strength of their party. As' we

DeMocrscy of the State quietly and elm-
ggically gone to work, they would have
secured control of the Convention, or, at
the worst, a powerful minority in it, The
pelitictans who have counseled no parti
cipation in this election,,ought to take ont
a patent for the best methodof decreasing
the numerical strength and vital force of
an organization.
A PAID OF RADICAL WORTIIIIO.-It will
be remembered that, during the war, one
Col. Jacques and J. R. Gilmore went to
Richmond as "Peace Commissioners," and
returning, published the result of their
mission, wbich,of muse, amounted to just
nothing. A few months ago, Jacques com
mitted a brutal assault upon a white wo
man in-Kentucky ; for this "loyal" eccen.
tricity he - was sent to prison. ' And now
comes J. R. Gilmore, otherwise "Edmund
- Kirke," and he, "loyal" man, is on trial
in Boston, on a charge of bastardy. Lovely
in their lives, in their striped suits and
cropped hair they may not be divided.
Tux New York World says: "Mr. Ray
mond is only six months behind Bit. Gree
ley, and:Mr:Greeley is only six weeks
behind Thad. Stevens, and Thad. Stevens
is only six days behind Wendell Phillips,
and Wendell Phillips is not more than
six inches from the -tail and the shining
,pitchfork of the roaster of them All."
TAE rustat DEBT.
The constant boattings of the Radicals,
over the alleged farge reduction of the
public debt, have received a sudden
quietus in an editorial ins last
Saturday's World, which plainly shows'
that the popular idea upon - this subject is
amistake. - According to that paper, the
debt of the United States, August 31, 1865,
was $2 846,u00,000, and on April 1, 1867,.
$2,663,000,000, showing an apparent l'e7l
ductiory of $183,000,000 in nineteen
months. But of what did the debt con
sist at each of these dates? In round num
bers, on the 31st of August, 1865,"the debt
in coin was $1,000,000,000, and that in cur•
rency was $1,846,000,000 ; while "on the
let of April, 1867, the coin debt was $l,-
500,000,000, and the currency debt $1,163 •
000,000. The main portion of the nation.
al debt was contracted when our currency
was worth less than 74 cents on the dollar
(the _equivalent of gold); but, assuming
this valuation as a basis of calculation, a
comparison of the amount in coin of the
debt at the two periods mentioned results
as follows : •
Auraat 81, 18115 Apal 1 - pm

This sh3ws a reduction of but $6,000 OCX)
in I. 2.neteen months, and these months
very favorable for the collection of a lar* e .:
amount of revenue. The inference is ob
vious. The national debt is not'going to
melt away like mist before the rising sun.
Its pressure has not begun to be felt as it
will. be, and as the signs of the times indi
cate that it is to be ere long. Ae d so long
as Congress appropriates millions to the,
Freedmen's Bureau, and increases the
salaries_ of its members by 60 2.3 percent.,
and expends money with a lavishness that
would be reprehensible even if the nation
al treasury were full to• overflowing, there
is no likelihood that the national debt
will be so much reduced as that taxation
will be materially lessened.
TUE CASE OF JEFFERSON DAVlS.—lntelli
genet+ has been received fiom Richmond
wkaos that it is, atter all, again in
doubt as to-whether Judge Underwood
will essay the trial of Jefferson Davis at
the May term of the United States District
Court. If the term be adjourned without
such trial, the President has determined
it is said, to at once release Davis from
confinement at Fortress Monroe, on nomi
nal bail. He has ir. his possession a letter
signed by leading Republicans, asking that
Davis be released, and also a proposition
from Horace Greeley offering to be one of
Mr. Davis' bondsmen. It is asserted en
the very highest authority, that the Gov
ernment has offered - to release Mr. Davis
on his own parole, but that he has posi-
tively declined to accept his freedom un
less the same is given unconditionally.
WUAT WE , HAVE BOVGEIT.—Since the
present Government was established the
United States have acquired the folloWing
territory, on the terms named:
1. The purchase of Louisiana- and the
Mississippi Valley, in 1803, from France,
for $15.000 000.
2. The purchase of Floridai,n 1819,from
Spain, for $3,000,0110.
3. The annexation of Texas, in 1845.
4. The purchase , of California, New
Mexico and Utah, -from Mexico, for $15,-
000,000. in 1848..
• 5. The purchase of Arizona from Mexi
co, for $10.000,000, in 1854.
G. The purchase of the immense Bus
skin Possessions,running down on the Pa
cific coast from the forth Pole to fifty-four
forty north latitude, at which line it strikes
the British possession, for $7,200,000,.
INrzasrat Rertsfue Itxceirrs.—Thejn
ternal Revenue receipts are now averaging
about $500,000 per day, and for the month
of April will reach about $15,000 000. Te
aggregate receipts for the pr went fiscal
year to date are $226,000,000. . The esti
mated receipts for May are $15.000,000 and
for Tube $25,000,000. Aggregate for the
year $270,000,000, against $312,000,000.f0r
the year 18GG: It is estimated that the in .
come tax for 18GG, colledable in May and
June of the present year, will not much
exceed $20,000,000, !against $4O 000,000
collected last year for the business of 1865
and $61,000,000 collected for the business
of 1864.
TUE impeachment• "project is at an end
It is hardly so much as whispered• now in
the atmosphere of Washington. General
Butler having thus been
_deprived of his
chief stock in trade as an aspiring states
man, may be considered "corked up," in
a political sense, as badly as be once was
inn military point of view.
The New York Times, (RepUblican) iri
alluding to the course of the-Senate in re'
jetting the President's nominations, says:
has been a vulgar partisan struggle,
regardless of the merits of tho individuals
nominated, and utterly regardless of the
wants and welfare of the country."'
An Ohio paper says:—"lt is affirmed
that thieves have, in New York City, a
regular school where burglary is taught as
a - science," They have had just such a
school as that on the most magnificent
scale, at Washington, ever since the Radi
cal party came into power.
Tim New York Herald has information
that a war between France and Prussia is
inevitable. There:is, therefore, no doubt
that the dif f iculty between France 'and
Prussia is about to be amicably adjusied.
TUE TAX ON URAL ESTATE.
Last year the Radicals abolished the tax
on real estate in Pennsylvania, and this
legislative feat was heralded as a magnifi
cent achievement. Radical newspapers
congratulated the Lamers of
: the 'State
thereupon, and assured them that this
was only a small sample of what would
eventually be done for them., Under
such economical administration of the
State Government as characterized Dem
ocratic rule, this reduction of the revenue
might not have, been found detrimental
to the financial interests of the State..We
could have got along without it. But not
so under the present regime. The_ late
corrupt Radical Legislature appropriated
more money than could possibly be fur
nished by existing rates of taxatioo..
Even after they had imposed a heavy tax
on coal and - other resources of the State,
it was found that there would be a ctfi
ciency. What was to be done? It would.
not do to restore the tax on real estate,
just after repealing it with such a grand
flourish of trumpets.; and yet the money'
must be had to pay extra salaries to mem
bera of the Legislature, to support. a small
army of dependents aboutihe two,Houses,
to furnish stealings for, petty officials, to
pay extraordinary prices for a portrait of
his Majesty, John W. Geary, to enlarge
the Executive Mansion, to keep up a use
less agency at Washington, to provide for
the maintenance of a atandingarroy, to
menace the foreigoers and. the Catholics
of the mining regions, and fora multitilde
of other extraordinary and improper pur
poses.
Radical ingenuity has never yet been at
a loss for a device, when- an opportunity
for plundering either the State or the h.
tional Treasury was presented. They did
not the tax on real estate, not in
express tends' and in manner and form as
once levied and collected, but they did
what amounted to precisely the same
thing. They passed a law requiring the
Commissioners of the several counties to
levy ; collect and pay into the State Treas
ury an additional sum of $3()9,000; the
precise amount formerly derived from the
tax on real estate. Of course_ the farmers
know who 'pay the county tax, which is to
be thus-,iticreased. It is notorious that
the rural districts pay more than a pro
portionate share of it. This is another
specimen of the wisdom and the fairness
of Radical legislation. How much longer
wilt the masses of Pennsylvania allow
themselves to be made the dupes of such
a set of corrupt political tricksters !—Lan

of the wagon road between these two cities is

buildings, I learn, were almost entirely dee

In one of these parks is a monument to Gen.
Greene, and in another one to Pulaski. Pass

each one once and a half the size of either of

which is being enlarged to 30 acres. In the

adorned with statuary; and surrounded with
' an iron railing, between which and the foun

Within this park stand many tell native

east their votes to perpetuate the damnable
Legislation that has not only punished this

now coming home, and the fictitious prosper

find its level. Then, perhaps, Congress will
undertake to reconstruct vitality into North

their (Congress) own follies. They will at
tempt to shuffle the responsibility from their

fill the places now occupied by such as must,
in the natural order of things, yield to the
pressure of time And care. It is by no means
a matter of email importance where our future
merchants, bankers and business men eve to
receive their preparatory training. We can
safely say there is no institution in this country
stands hither in the estimation of practical
business men, or is more_ thoroughly appree , -
%tea by its patrons, than the Iron City College
of Pittsburgh. An examination of the high
character of the testimonials contained in its
'circular, shows that it is justly entitled to the
exalted reputation it so universally enjoys.
