- . OBITUABY.
.- . c. JoHX SCHTrEIT.K ' i
Died at 1 o'clock P. M., Jannarj 15,
lis 76, aged 70 jean, lees 1 month.
He wis a g rest grandson of Nick
Ishs Scbweyer, who came to America
m tbe year I -, and seiuta id .uaxa
tonnj towuship, Deris county, Pa. A
m - - I 1
ton ol Aicmaas namea ueorge
Scbweyer, settled farther up in the
same county, in Windsor township, ad
joining tbe town of Hamburg. II was
the grandfather of tbe subject of this
obitoary notice. By one of the finan
oiai revolutions so peculiar to American
life almost the entire estate of bis
grandfather, George, was awept away.
This atroke of misfortune left tbe
father also named George of the
subject of this brief notice without
means.
When the war of 1912, between the
United States and Great Britain, broke
out, George Sehweyer, last mentioned,
yielded to tbe military spirit of the
times and entered the U. S. Army.
He never returned. His mother, re
ceiving word that ho lay wounded at
one of tbe frontier posts, along the
Canada line, and yet having a pittance
of tho old fortune left, journeyed to
tbe post designated, only to meet dis
appointment in not finding her son.
George Scbweyer's wife having died
previons to bis goiug ioto the army bis
four children were left without parental
support, excepting what they reoeived
from their grandmother. She also soon
sickened and passed away, and tben the
four children, two boys, John and
George, stid two frirls, Susan and So
phia, drifted out into the wide world
without means or friends.
John Schweier that is tbe way be
misspelled bis name came to J uniata
county in tbe year 1820, where he lived
from that date to the date of his death,
excepting a brief sojourn in tbe State
of Maryland, and in Cumberland coun
ty, this State. He learned the trade
of painting, and about tbe year 1S31
settled in Miffliotown, where he added
to that of painting, that of making
chairs and cabinet furniture. After
a number of years be engaged largely
in tbe manufacture of furniture, and
annually shipped boat loads of furni
lure to various points along the canals
of tbe Juuiata and Susquehanna, rivers.
About twenty years since, on account
of declining health, he withdrew from
the business, to a farm adjoining Mif-
flintomn, wLcre he lived in quietness
to tbe day of his death.
He was born in Windsor township,
Berks county. Pa., on tbe 14tb day of
February, 1806, and died in Ferman
agh township, adjacent to Miffliotown
Juniata county, Pa., on the 15tb day of
January, 1870, at 1 o'clock, P. M.
His remains were buried in Union Cent
etery, sontb of Miffliotown, or. the 17:h
day of January, 1S76. He left a fain
ilj, living, consisting of a wife, a son,
a daughter-in-law, four grandchildren,
two of tbein sons, named respectively
John F. and Wilberforcc Sehweyer,
and two daughters, named respectively
Annie E. and Mary . Scbweyer.
He was a member of the Lutheran
Cburcb, lived a life consistent with his
profession, and died like a man in the
full faith of the promises of the Chris
tian religion. Haviug a family record
beyond his great grandfather, Nicklans,
that extends through the revolutions
and couuter revolutions of Europe
more than five hundred yean, which,
if it were possible to place in
the market as an article of Merchandise
among rieh people, would bring a prince
ly fortune ; but lineal records are not
articles of merchandise the titles of which
may be transferred, and if they were, in
this case the gold of Cbristend jot. would
be insufficient to purchase. He was
always plain as tecomes a citixen of
tbe American Republic, and unassum
ing in tone and manner, as if be bad
sprung from the humblest origin.
Without disparagement to men with
whose inner life we have no acquain
tance, we believe that as to honesty
ot purpose, morality and religion, be
was tbe be.-t man we ever knew.
The Loyal Awakening.
- Uoder tbe above heading tbe Wash
ington Republic ssys : Like tbe defunct
Confederacy, the Democratic party has
several times come within sight of the
White Ucuse, but as often failed in its
capture. It is now entrenched in tbe
House of Representatives, and has put
ex rebel officers in command of its im
portant offices, but we confidently pre
dict that the Centennial campaign will
close with the utter rout of tbe Demo
cratio pat ty, and the repossession by the
Republican party of every important
position formerly held by tbem. Tbe
Government was saved by tbe sacrifices
of its loyal sens, and its friends have
not yet concluded to surrender it to
those who bitberto favored its destruc
tion. If Deinoeiaoy has gained certain
advantages over tbe Republican party
the gain was due, not to an increase of
strength on their part, but to the apathy
of Kepnblioant who deemed their party
sufficiently strong not to require from
them that personal attention which they
had formerly given to political affairs.
Tbis error has brought in its results a
lessou that will not soon be forgotten.
Tbe last election indicated the awaken
ing of tbe loyal Masses. The Presi
dential election will indicate that they
are not only awake, but on their feet to
bold and defend the Government which
belongs to tbem by right of services
rendered when its existence was in
jeopardy.
Cringing to Jeff. Davis.
The action of tbe Democrats in tbe
Lower House of Congress, in concert
with tbe ex-rebels in that body, to am
nesty, or pardon Jeff. Davis, without
requiring bin to swear allegiance to the
Government that he sought to over
thiow, has been the cause of tbe mani
festation of a just indignation through'
out tbe country, outside of Rebel andj!'ji be grew loud against asking for
sympathising circles. The following j pardon, and in a speech said: "1
aitiile from the Harrisburg Telegraph ! would rather have my name reeorded
lis but a reflex of the general settiweut i
of the country : " !
I Th i,k.t. wnm tri.iina nl I
large measure of attention over the J
country, it may be well to remember,
arises over a bill presented by a N'orth- j
eru Democrat to amnesty al! rebels now j
: resting under the ban
- i
And it is es-'
i essential alio to remember the nature
of the disabilities sought to be remov
ed, a well as the number resting nu
! der these, , an 1 tbe peculiar turpitude
of the crimes under which they rest.
First in the order of these matters let
it not be forgotten that the only disa
bility placed on these traitor is that
they cannot hold any civil or military
office under either the Federal or Slate
Governments.' This prohibition is found
in the Fourteenth Amendment of the
t ... ,
Federal Constitution. It is therefore
I !
ir ' ... ' .
written about "beginning our second
century with all citizens of tbe Union
i restored to their rights, aud tbe wounds
: of tbe war thoroughly healed." that
j the only object of this proposed action
) is to enable tbe yet disloyal Sontb to
' send trooping back to both Houses of
i Congress, and to make eligible to tbe
j very highest offices in tbe land, men
I guilty of the blackest perjury, rebellion
and treason while holding offices in
1 1860, in the holding of which they bad
' taken oaths to maintain and defend the
very government they were conspiring
i to destroy. With this clear fact in
j view the fawning of such Northern
Democratio Congressmen as now press
this Amnesty bill becomes apparent
and contemptible. But it is to be fur
ther considered that the number of these
rebels only debarred from participat-
I iog in the government, and free to do
j all else they may desire without moles
! tation is given by Mr. Blaine a very
careful authority, at 750. So that tbe
j eager anxiety of the Northern Demo
j crats to get back into State and Feder
I al offices this irreclaimable biudful of
unrepentant rebels is rather a tribute
I paid to persistent treason tban a desire
I to perfuim an act of either mercy or
i justice Treason u, in itself, Jetesta-
ble enough. But a treason undertaken
in behalf of slavery has a peculiar
. rankness of iufauiy belonging to it-
When to these bad qualities of these
men's crimes you add their blatant con.
tinuance in this deepened disloyalty,
then tbe whole measure of this eager
desire to restore them to honor and of
fice is laid bare. Passing Randall's
bill makes the return of Jeff. Davis to
tbe Senate fcr life a certain event. For
he is the idel of every State Legisla
ture in the South having a Democratic
and rebel majority. He could
then cboose from a dozen States and
would be eagerly elected by any one
ot them in which be might design to
take up bis residence. We sincerely
thank those Republican leaders in the
House who have indignantly repelled
this measure ; and we shall be proud
, to record that enough Democratic votes
shall join them to make the exclusion
of such men as Davis from public trust
: tborongb and secure. But candoi com
j pels us to say that the latter hope is
ouc we sec nothing in the present lawn.

It is an outrage to bring Davis for

Attention has been invited, more
tban once, to tbe schemes known to ex
itt among tbe Democracy in the House
at Washington, to rote all the cotton
, . , . , ., . .
claims possible, aud Mr. t ook, oi Ueor-
, , . ., . ,
gia, has presented a bill for the repeal
of the cotton tax
which puis the
scheme on its way to fruition. This
tax ha yielded, thus far, 68,072,285,
and tbis amount, with interest, Mr.
Cook wants refunded to the Southern
people. This is the spirit of the House.
It proposes to cut down the current ex.
ptoses of the Government $40,000,
000, which is well enough if it can be
done without impairing its efficiency,
and will then turn round and practical
ly appropriate $100,000,000 to tbe
people South, as improperly collected
taxes. If the South bad be6n excep.
tional in it taxpaying experience, all
would have been well ; but tbe North
paid far more excessive taxes than did
It, and now groans uoder debts incur
red became of the Southern rebellion.
An attempt to refund would not benefit
the planter, as it would go very largely
to lawyers and agents, and could not
in many case go to those who pay the
tax. Tbe principle is precisely tbat
which led to the refusal to pay insur.
anee to companies for vessels destroyed
by rebel cruisers. The attempt to
bave this tax refunded is n..t creditable
to tbe good sense of tbe House. Pitts

Address of J. F. Hartranft, on the
Occasion of his second Inaugu
ral as Governor of Pennsylva
nia, on the 18th day of January,
1876.
Gentlemen of the Senate and House of
Representatives and itllow Citizens:
Three years ago, when the oath oi
office was administer to me as Execu
tive, I took occasion to express the
sense of my infiuite obligations to the
people of tbe State who had honored
me with repeated proofs of affection
if I did not now renew my acknowl
edgments to the same generous consti.
turncp, who, after a three years' stew
ardship of the highest office in their
gift, have called me again to assume
its important duties.
Tbe contiuued favor and inflexible
support my conduct of publio affairs
bas received from the citizens of tbe
Commonwealth, bespeak from me in re.
turn, the utmost zeal and fidelity in
their service, and my highest aoilitiou
will be reached if my administration
will be remembered as an honorable
one that studied and provided for their
best interests. 1 still have a exalted
an opinion of the great trust yoa have
oonferred upon me as when first con
fronted with its novel and grave respon
sibilities, and despite the experience
bad, am uone tbe less distrustful of my
abilities to meet it requirements, bnt
whatever may be my other deficiencies
1 do not know what it is to be wanting
in attachment to my State, or affection
for her people who have distinguished
me with so many obliging and conspi.
cuous marks of partiality.
1 am not unmindful tbat the welfare
and progress of a State depend less
npon its government and rulers than
upon the habits and circumstances of
it citizens, and that no measures of
administration can produce any sub
stantial good unless they are dictated
by publio opinion or are begotten of
the publio necessities. A people must
be ripe for reform or reform can work
them no permanent benefit. Invention
may exhaust itself in contrivance of
public utility and ruler may be never
so wise iu their device, but if tha dis
positions and intelligence of a people
are unprepared for the reception of
temedie they will not take root in their
affections or affair. ,
Imbued with these convictions, the
maxiuis for the coodact of my admin,
istration were easily formed. It was
only necessary to resolve tbat its acts
should bave no selfish taint, that they
should be colored by no personal pre.
dilections or warped by any favorite
theories, and that inspired ueither by
fear nor favor they should aim to re
flect the people' will With the light
with which Heaven bas endowed me I
bav striven to adhere to these maxims,
and if at any time I bave failed to eon.
form thereto it bad not been from laak
of patient investigation aad honest ex
ertion or of i tender and jealous regard
for tbe honor of tbe Stat bat from a
misconception 6r misapprehension of
tbe wishes or needs of ber people' In
the future tben, as in the past, a the
Executive of tbe Commonwealth, 1 can
have no intereat to serve tbat is not ber
interest, and can embrace no doctrine
or embark in any cause tbat will not
advance the material prosperity and
promote the enlightenment of her citi
zens. My opinions upon the questions that
effect the government of tbe State
bave been presented in my annual rues,
ssge and it is unnecessary to again re
fer to them.
When e look around us, gentlemen
of the Legislature, bow various, mul-
D -
tiform and intricate are the interests of
our great Commonwealth. Certainly
it is a proud distinction to be chosen
to administer tha affairs of a State
that bas within ber limits so many of
the elements of empire and it behooves
us to see to it that neither its dignity
or prosperity suffer through any default
of our. Let us remit no effort that
will enlarge the happiness or benefits
of her citizens ; let ns be distinguished
by lojalty to ber interests, by a jealous .
care of ber institutions, a liberal un.
derstanding of and provisions for her
necessities, by humane attention to the
wants of ber poor and afflicted, and en.
lightened treatment of her criminal
classes, and by a tolerance of opinion,
political and religious, so tbat when we
are discharged of our trusts we can de
liver them to our successors with the
approval of our consciences, and, let
ns hope, with the blessings of a grate
ful peaple.
With this renewal of my obligations
as your Jixecotive, I invito th earnest
and active to-operation and counsel of
all good citizens, and implore tbat my
official acts may have tbe sanction of
Diine Providence.
