In 7:bi p. in t:4 p. In Erie, July '2, 1869-2 t Strange Conduct.--Gov. Geary's Fourth of July Speech., In common with many of our citizens, We have been much surprised at the course pur sued by the Dispatch in relation to GOv. Geary's address at the corner-stone ceremon ies on the Fourth. This policy is the more strange because the Dispatch claims to be a Republican paper, and the Governor is the admitted head of that party in Pennsylvania. The Dispatch's slighting treatment of the Governor, in its previous notices of the cere monies, had given rise to considerable com ment, but it was not expected that it could resort to such a malignant expedient as de liberately to misreport his speech on such an occasion us'the Fourth. All who heard that magnificent ‘pecimen of forensic skill know that it was an effort such as few pub lie men arc capable of producing, and we can imagine their mortification at seeing the garbled version of it in the columns of our cotemporary on the Monday ensuing. Who, for instance, believes .that a statesman . of Gov. Geary's acknowledged attainments would be guilty of contradicting himself in the ridiculous manner which the Dispatch would have us believe by the extracts quoted below—the first paragraph appearing near the opening, and the last at the close of the prodUction as it appears in that paper' "This day ninety-two years ago,-in our own well beloved city of Philadelphia, a he roic transaction was consummated in a delib erative body by the adoption of the•Declara lion of Independence, in which it ;was - de (dared, "that all men were created tree and equal, endowed with certain inalienable rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." This noble sentiment has proved to be, in our day, no "glittering generality," for every stare in our country is "redeemed, regenerated, and dbtenthralled by the genius of sutiversabefmancip*ation." "The day, we trust, is vat far distant when the soil (f this country 'Shall hot be pressed by the fihd of a :dare, or polluted with that of a traitor, when all cur people shall be willing to pledge theinselves to each other, to their country and to God. that they will devote the Government, and preserve the Union of all the States, now and forever, one and in separable." Here we have it , plainly expressed in , one place that slavery nowhere exists in the country, and in the other the ferv2nt prayer is offered up that that which has inc existence may at a "not far distant" "day" be swept from the face of the land ! tin absurdity like this would be too bad for a school-boy, much less a full grown Governor, and the impres sion inevitably follows that it was a pre meditated perversion of his language, with the object of bringing "His Excellency" into contempt. But this is far from being all. The whole speech, as printed in the 'pis • patch, is so* full of garbled and misapplied quotations, contains so many buncombe ex pressionS, and in some of its parts is so!sin gillarly inappropriate, that none who -read it will believe fora-moment that it is the same . production which fell so gracefully from the lips of the Chief Executive of the State of Pennsylvania. It will not do for our neigh bor to lay the blame of these -gross offenses against propriety upon the shoulders of its phonographic, reporter.. They bear too plainly the evidence of a studied and mali cious attempt tp bring the Governor into ridicule to allow, of an/question among readerF. In justice to our communi ty, which always feels proud to render hom age to the grea't man who presides over the affairs of our CoMmonwealtb, we protest against thiS heinous violation of the courte sies due to our distinguished visitor, and in sist that the Dispatch shall hasten to make amends by publishing a full, impartial and verbatim report of the speech. ' TUE Democratic Convention of 'jefferson county instructed its delegates to' support Hon. W. P. Jenks, of that county, as the Democratic candidate for Congress in this disniet. The Clearfield Republican, organ of the Democrats of. that county, also sug gests Mr. Jenks as a candidate; from which we infer that there is a concerted movement on the part of our 'friends in the Eastern por tion of the district, to press that gentleman into the service. lie has been a member of the two last Legislatures, and won the repu tation of being one of the ablest and purest members of that body. We believe it to be the intention of Warren county to present 'the name of Judge Brown, who is acknowl fedged,to be one of the strongest men in the district. The counties east of Erie claim that as we have had the nominee, twice out 01 three campaigns, he of right belongs this year to thafportion of the district, and thus fiat we have heard of no Democrat here who has any disposition to become a candidate. Our relations with the rest of the district, up to this period, have been so pleasant and harmonious, that the Democrats of Erie county will undoubtedly be ready to agree to any movement that promises /to continue them and promote the general advantage of the cause. ON the forenoon of the Fourth a Coal black negro, who had been overcome by an excess of patriotism, or something equally soothing, wac discovered by the side of a fence on Peach street, in a condition of total oblivion to the occurrences around him. Some disloyal waz, not having the fear of Thad. Stevens or the Freedman's Bureau be fore his eyes, had posted a paper on the fence above him, with the words upon it: "Radi cal party." The scene attracted., it vast amount of attention as the processio; passed by, and the appriteness of the inscription seemed tb meet -with general appreciate n. ' •- , Tur; lengthy proceedings of the National Convention, and of the two Soldiers' Con. ventions, compel us to defer our usual local Variety, BENJ'N WHITMAN, Chairman Local Politic,,. The Radical iliitnary elections 'on Satur day,next nre the all alraoloing theme of pop ular interest, next to the proceedinot , the great Democratic Convention. Since our last .:sue, the ".mrface indications," as the oil men say, hac a , mmed an entirdy new pha , e, which may nrtterially change the No:. peels of some of the aspirants. Whallon itn,l Walker have withdrawn .as eanaidatva Ilrr cnn g re,s, leavin g the eont,t to be waged between me,n, Scofield, Kile 4 and Cutler. Alew week. it 1 001 : , d if Scofield would NV:lth, OVVE the VOW, ee , iltry but. the appearance of Mr. King In the aren.t has rendered his chances more pre carious. The latter and his friends arc laboring with unceasing energy, and profess to be hopeful of a successful result. They expect the vale in the city, South Erie and Mill Creek to be nearly unanimous for him, and claim a large support in sections Of the county considered . by Scofield's advocate s to be impregnable. Mr. Cutler has a good deal of strength in Girard and th 6 South-western townships,'hut the probabilities of his'carry log a majority vote are not regarded by the old politicians 'as favorable. The struggle really lies between Scofield and Kiria . , and the clever qualities of the l a tt er , j„i n ,.a it , his moderatei views and obliging disposition, enlists the sympathies of most Democrats. Between the two men, few persons will dis pute that Ring is the best for the intere. , ts of the county, and the one who would give least reason to ( complain of 'partizan unfairness. A =nil canvass is being waged over the Assembly, Commissioner and Poor Director nominatioA The city claims a member and is pressing" Mr. Moorhead vigorously, with some show Of success. On the other hand, it is contended that the party rules entitle Messrs. Strnahau and Rca to two terms, and the friends of the latter are working "like beavers." These three arc all that have been announced, and one of them must make up ht mina to Lo left at horn,. Tin, Delman _Radicals make a deail-set against Rca, on account of his real or supposed tem perance proclivities, while the enemies of the Poor Rouse removal arc equally active against Stranahan, because of his avowed support of that measure. In the eastern townships, this latter question is the main one of the canvass, and the Radicals there being generally in favor of the removal,-will give Stranahan their support with few dis senting votes. The exciting Poor Ilnuse controversy en ters equally into the choice of a Commission er and Poor Director, and the nomination of candidates for both these offices will wholly be decided on this issue. All the other can didates for Commissioner have withdrawn, and the race is narrowed down to Mr. Childs, of Wayne, one of the present' incumbents, and Jackson McCreary, of West Mill Creek, —the latter for the retention of the property, and the former for its sale and the removal of the institution. The fight has 'become so hot, that, whichever side wins, there will be great dissatisfaction, and each party threaten to place an independent candidate in the field in case of defeat. If the Democrats act shrewdly, this quarrel may yet result con siderably,to our advantage. Mr. Thompson, the present Poor Director, who sustains the proposed sale, is a candidate for re-election, and ere have not heard Who Mc opposition have decided to pit against him. The heavy Radical majority precludes the pobsibility of a regularly nominated Democrat being elected to either of these oil - 16s, and we can therefore have no more interest in the warfare than to hope that the beSt man may win, and, litic Macawher, patiently wait for "something to turn up." TILE Fornur,—The celebration of the Fourth in this 'city came up fully to the ex pectations °Nile public, and was an occasion: long to he remembered in our loca/ annals. The crowd was the largest we have seen in the city for years, and, although the day was intensely hot, most of them managed to keep in good humor, and to enjoy themselves in a satisfitctory manner. The main feature of the occasion was 'the procession and the pital grounds. The former was participated in by many of_the local societies, and was over a mile in length, numbering probably fifteen hundred or two thousand persons. Owing to the heat and dust, comparatively few of .the spectators accompanied it to the Hospital grounds. The Masonic exercises were admirably conducted and commanded the close :attention of the audience from_lf. ginning to end. At their termination, wt'lt ten addresses were delivered by Gov.loeaty and Attorney-General Brewster—thi• lat ter 'being a remarkably appropriate and beautiful composition, , while_ the fornier. was a piece of the most ordinary twaddle we haye heard recited in a long period. The Governor has nerer been much of a favorite among our people, andhi4visit on the Fourth has not added anything tp their estimate of his talents or personal qualities. .-As a fitting testimonial to his efforts in of the Hos pital, Hon. 31. B. Lowry' as chosen to pre side over the assembly. The cxereises were interspersed with the singing of several pa triotic odes, in which the audience joined with considerable fervor. We have never attended a more delightful? occasion of the sort, taken as a -whole, andLinssure those of our citizens who negleted to be present that they •missed one of the most enjoyable features of the day. A. fine display of fire works closed the festivities. The members of the Committees of Arrangement, the Marshals, and all who took part in the pub lic demonstrations, deserve great credit-, and our sole regret in connection- with the occa sion is, that our crowded space prevent , us from.giving such a report of the day's pfo• ceeilings as they so eminently deserve, Tot miners in the Mercer coal regions continue to hold out for advanced wages, which the proprietors resolutely refuse them. its a conseqUence, very little coal is coming to market, few boats are running, and trade at the docks is nearly suspended. The sup ply of coal:both at the mines and our hatbox, is almost exhausted, and dealers fear • that they will be-unable to fill their contracts. The owners of the coal banks claim that ut the present prices they cannot afford to pay higher wages, and the •miners contend that they cannot live at the present rates. Be tween them, they are causing an immense amount of Ithgs, annoyance and profimity to large numbers of people. Tae Radical Convention in the adjoining county of Jefferson, Ohio, (the home of Ben. Wade and G eit Garfield) unanimously adopt ed the faowing resolution. We commend it to the deliberate reflection of that large Anti-Tariff element in our comity which acts. with the Radical organization "Re:qaccd,_ That this Convention is opposed to the doctrine of "Free Trade," and that we regard the subject of a Tariff as a legitimate subject of legislation. And that we earnestly invite the attention of our representative in Congress to these quekions ; to the end that the industrial and manufacturing interests of the country may be alike amply protected. Tim City Councils passed a series of reso lutions on Monday evening, reciting that as the Poor House farm was originally given in trust by the State - to the city, and by it trans ferred to the county for _the benefit of the poor of the county, no sale can take place witkout its consent, and protesting against the proposition to dispose of it i ond change the location of the Poor House buildings. _ TIM Gazette wants 'to know where John D. Stmnainm stands -on the Poor House question. The Corry Teleghtli, speaking undoubtedly by authority, responds that he is emphatically in favor of a sale of the present property, and of the removal of the institution to =other portion of the COUty.

Whfice,,, In the month of.luly, Ann() 'Do mino 1561, in accepting the condition of civil war which was brought about byinsurrection and rebellion in several of the States, the two houses of Congress did solemnly declare that that war .was not waged on the part of the Government in any spirit of oppression, nor for any purpose of conquest or subjugation, nor for any purpose of overthrowing or inter fering with the rights or established institu tions of States, but only to defend and main tain the supremacy of the Constitution of the United States, and to preserve the Union, with all the dignity, equality ;6U as those objects should be accomplished, the war, on the part of the Government should cease ; and 117 are a, ,, The President of the United States has heretofore, in the spirit olthat decla ration, and with a view of securing for it ultimate and complete cifect, set forth in several proclamations offering amnesty and pardon to persons who had been or were con cerned in the aforenameil rebellion, which proclamations, howdrer, were attended wit% prudential re-ervations and exceptions then deemed necessary and proper, and which proclamations were respectively issued on the "3111 day of Ikeember, ISti3; on the 26th day of March, rigil; on the Vth day of May, ktts, and on the ith day or September, 186; ; and • • 117,r, Thc r.ciil lc ment:Ode civil war has long since altogether cva,cd with an acknow ledgment . by all the States of the supremacy of the Federal ConStittition, and of the Go vernment thereunder, and there no longer exists any re:1,01111We ground to apprehend a rene - wal of the said civil war or any- toreupi interference or any unlawful resi , ,tanre any portion of the people of any of the States to the Constitution and laws of the Glided States; and ' Who., It is tksimbie to reduce the sintill ing army and to bring to a speedy termina tion the Military occupation by martial law, the military tribunalq, the abridgment of the frodoin of speech and of the .press, the sus pension of the privilege of " habeas corpus," and of the right of• trial by jury, such en croachments upon our free institutions in thus of peace being dangerous to public liberty and incompa:tible with the individual rights of the citizen, contrary to the generous spirit of our republican form of Government and exhaustive of the National resources; and ilitercaq, It is believed that amnesty and pardon will tend to secure a eompleto and universal establishment and prevalence of municipal law and order in conformity with the Constitution of the United z3tates. Now, to remove all appeal anee , ant pre ,uniptions of a retaliatory or vindictive policy on the mut of the Government, attended by unnecessary disqualifications, pains,. penal ties, confiscation and distranchisements, and on the contrary to promote and procure complete fraternal reconciliation among the Whole people, with due submission to the con stitution and laws. . Therefore, be it known that I, Andrew Johnson. PreAdent orthe United States, do, by virtue of the Constitution, and iu the name of the people of the United States, hereby proclaim and declare, unconditionally and without reservation, to all and to every per son who, directly or indirectly, participated in the late insurrection or rebellion, excepting such person or persons as may be under pre sentment or indictment in any Court of the United States Laving eompet.mt jut i,diction, upon a charge of treason or oilier felony, it full pardon and amnesty for the.otrense of treason against the United States, or of ad hering to their enemies during the late civil war, with restoration of all rights of properly except as to slaves, and except, also, as to any property of which tiny persons may have been legally divested under the laws of the United States. In testimony whereof, I have signed these presents with my - band, and caused the seal of the United ritates to be hereunto affixed.. Done at Washington, the 4th day -of uly, in the year of our Lord [L. S.] one thousand ei Ott hundred and sixty cialit, and of tlie Independence of-the United States of America the ninety third.
