FOR GOVERNOR,
Gen. JOHN W. GEARY,
OF BUMBERLAND COUNTY.
The Volunteer is extremely concerned on
account of what it is pleased to term "more
trouble for the Herald." We appreciate
the kindness of our neighbor in thus notic
ing us in our affliction and would be more
grateful if it did not resort to unfairness and
perversion in order to convince its readers
that our course was as notoriously inconsis
tent as its own. It garbles two or three of
our late editorials and then assumes that we
are riding two horses in opposite directions.
We will endeavor to set our neighbor right,
it' only until his next issue. The Volunteer's
arrangement is as follows
Here are a few extracts from the last two
numba”. nf .110 Herald:

" The President has
spoken word which
show that lie enter
tains no feeling of
kindness for those who
have made him all
that he proudly boasts
of as his own. On
last Thursday he saw
fit to give to the coun
try his views at length
on the policy which
he has sect, fit to
adopt, and that it
grb•ves us to say, ap
pears to befrictulship

hatred and proscrip

" This veto is re
garded by the oppon
ents of the Republican
party as placing the
President and Con
gress in direct antag
onism. We think the
expectations and hopes
are premature."—Her
aid, February 23.
As the dates of the articles indicate, one
was written after the veto inessae was de
livered and with reference to it and the other
after the remarkable speech of the President.
We did not anticipate at the time the veto
message was put forth that the President was
preparing to go over to the enemy and for
his own sake we hoped he would not. Ills
speech however dispelled this illusion and
We very promptly denounced his recreancy
and gave our Democratic friends the luielit
of the admission that he was entirely with
their friends of the late rebellion. In what
way that is trying to ride two horses at once
we are at a loss to perceive. At the tone
the Pi-Ai:l,lo,u loade his gpoech he
tirely with the gentlemen of the other side.
We think from later indications that he is
about tired of his COO - 1111111y awl this we do
not much wonder at Their treason drove
him out of their party and will very likely
do so again.
Our position concerning the Freedmen's
bill is simply this. We have no disposition
to abuse the President for vetoing it. If lie
feared that he could not be trusted to carry
out the details of the bill without violating
his sense of duty to the Constitution and the
Country or if he could not trust himself
with the patronage which it conferred he
acted wisely in vetoing it. At the same
time we are not disposed to join our neigh
bore in denouncing a bill which received the
support of three-fourths of the N atiunal Con
gress and the approval of such men as Gen.
Grant and Howard. All these men may be
fanatics and fools in the estimation of our
learned and sagacious neighbors but we dont
see our way clear to denounce them as such.
This is simply the position' we took in our
former articles, and we repeat it here even
at the risk of provoking from our classical
neighbor an unusual Shakesperean quotation
and a very usual lot of nonsense. But
our neighbor grows eloquently' prophetic.
Just hear hint :
He sees either, camel, weasel or whale in
the little cloud "no larger than a man's
hand" which is rising upon the horizon,
just as the fitful fancy of his Prince Hamlet
may dictate. But let him beware, lest that
cloud swell to huge proportions, darkening
the whole heavens, and discharging its
thunderbolts of popular indignation upon
the ,heads of the men who would sacrifice
the peace and unity of the American Union,
for the perpetuity of faction and the greed
of public plunder.
We are sorry to spOil this pretty predic
tion by asking him in what quarter we are
to look for this cloud of " huge proportions."
When we read his effusion we turned in
stinctively to New Hampshire whore we
supposed there would be an appearance
which our fitful fancy might suppose to.ben
camel or even a whale. But when the elec
tion came the cloud failed to connect. We
doubt whether our Democratic friends even
thought they saw a weasel. The sun of free
dom shines as brightly in the Granite State
as if there never had been a veto message or
a copperhead speech enunciated by Andrew
Johnson. We wonder what Pollonius would
think of the cloud that rests on the Deno,
cracy sincp last Tuesday.
EDGAR Cowen U. S. Senator from Penn
sylvania has achieved a distinction which
feiv Senators have attained since the com
mencement of our Government. In 1860,
in the first triumph of Republicanism, he
was chosen to a position which placed him
before the Country as one of the National'
lenders of our party. He has been faithless
from.the first to the. party that gave him
position. 'Ho has last no opportunity to de
nounce its measures and that, not as an op
ponent, but as a friend and supporter. Ho
has not had the manliness to identify him
self with the Democracy but while, claiming
to belong to the Union • organization has
rendered most efficient paid to its adversaries.
Week before last our Stitt° Senate passed a
resolution asking him to resign which read v-
Ciftbe votes of every man in the body Who was
not a , Democrat. Last week the Union
Eitato go,nycntion passed the same resolution
unanimously and. with more enthusiasm than
greeted any of their other resolves. We
hope Mr. COWAN Will gratify the loyal
men - Of the State by 'Weeding heise' resolu
thins and resigning. - Let him 4 Stand 'on
theorder of- his'going but go dt onoe.
General Geary's. Early Career
General J. W. GEARY, Oft Union candi
date for Governor, is now only foity-six
years of age. Ho was born in Westmote
land county, in this State. Losing his fath
er in early life, ho became the only;stay of
his mother, and supported her by teaching*
a village school. Ho was equcated at Jef
ferson College, Washington eNnty, Penna.
He served through the Mexican war with
great distinction, having , served as Lieuten- '
ant Colonel of the 2d Pennsylvania Reg
iment, and fought lri Quurltnx's division in
the battles of La Hoya," Chapultepee,"
Garita do Belem" and City of Mexico."
On the return of the regiment, Col. GEARY
and his command were publicly honored by
an immense concourse of people at Pittsburg,
the eminent WILLIAM WILKINS being the
orator. In 1859 Colonel GEARY was tip
pointed postmaster of San Francisco, Cali
fornia, by President PoLx. In the same
_ .
3'
ear he was electedfirsi airalde of the city
.n office of great importance in the condition
of thai, new American State, requiring exec
utive
,4alent, energy, courage and integrity.
In 185'0 ho was elected mayor of San Fran
cisco. After filling other high and respon
sible posts with ability, he returned to Penn
sylvania in 1852, and remained at his farm,
in - Westmoreland, till he was appointed
Governor of Kansas by President Pi Nam
Ills record in that difficult post, and his
brilliant military conduct in the rebellion,
will furnish material for It more extended
article. We merely note these points in his
early career for present information.
There is no probability of Stanton, Spee
Inquirer.
We suppose not. If they were men of
honor they would have resigned the very
hour they found that their sentiments did
not accord with the views of the President.
But they are not honorable men ; the emolu
ments of office is all they care for, and of
course they will hold on to their desks un
til the President kicks them out. It will
be nn unpleasant duty for Mr. Jo!inson to
perform, but yet we don't see how he is to
get along in safety with three traitors in his
cabinet. lle will be compelled, in self
defense, to oust these bad men (rein the po
sitions they disgrace, and the sooner he per
forms this duty
the better.— Volunteer.
We Will borrow a favorite sarcasm of the
Me
, loodrer just long enough to say that doubt
ess the three " traitors" referred to fee
badly " at knowing how poor an opinion our
neighbor has of them. - "We dent believe
however that they will resign nor do we
think the President will bo in a hurry to
kick therh out. Mr. lIAIILAN has been
very recently elected to the - LT. S. Senate for
a full terns which indicates to eotnc extent,
out 111,, course nas not neon very objec
tionable to any but copperheads—we pro

we doubt whether the President would im
prove his somewhat damaged popularity by
removing eit , er. But Mr the energy, abili
ty and patriotism of Secretary STaxT , ,N it
is highly probably that the cabinet of Jen'.
Davis and not that of Andrew Johnson
would now engage the interest of our Demo
cratic friends. It will lie a sad day for the
country when he is displaced to gratify the
apologists for treason.
The prospects of tho Deinouracy are get

coarse they are. If you doubt it all
rend the result of the New Hampshire elec
tion and President Johnson's conversation
with Sehator Sherman in to-day's paper.
Said prospects may be said to be brilliantly
ennigent. IIDOIII tlll 1101 e.
The Democratic Cinders have fluidly dis
covered that the people cannot be Ilion
bogged any longer by placing military
names on tickets fur the purpose of covering
up their party's disloyalty. In IBG4, they
tried McClellan but were most ingloriously
defeated. Last yet is • they ran soldier: , in
many of the States but were beaten regularly.
They have concluded at length that they
had better nominate merry'elp have done no
act inconsistent with their principles In
this they acted wisely. Defeat is certain to
them no matter who may be their leader
and they know now they cannot avert it by
by giving the empty honor of a nomination
to a soldier. It is therefore eminently
proper that they should nominate a man
who has been a consistent opponent of every
measure intended to crush out rebellion and
has never contributed his voice or influence
to support his Government, in her hour of
trial. Such a nine is II HIST ER CLYNI
and be will add as little to his party's strength
as he did to the cause of his country in her
recent struggle
The difference between the Republican
and Democratic parties in Pennsylvania is
nowhere better displayed than in the treat
ment accorded to the Soldiers by the State
Cone entions of the two. The Republican
Convention nominates a gallant soldier who
served thronghout the war ; the Democratic
Convention nominates a Copperhead, with
out alloy, who voted as 11, member of the
State Senate against every measure intended
to benefit the soldier The Republican
platform, too, demands an equalization of
bounties, the meting out of ample justice
to the brave defenders of the nation, and a
liberal provision for the education and corn
fort of !Jl l () orphans of those who fell in de
fence of their country while the Democratic
platform indulges only in buncombe talk,
carefully avoiding all mention of specific
measures in behalf of our returned braviis.
COLD COMFORT
We recommend the following interview
between Senator Sherman and President
Johnson to our brothorn on the other side of
the house. We admit that it is a little cruel
to interrupt the rubbing of hands and smack
ing of lips in anticipation of the fat things
which wore to be the nett result of what
was confidently hoped was the incurable de
fection of the Presidentfrom the party which
elected him ; but full many hopes equally
sweet have been turned to equally bitter
ashes. How would Wile to to// the Court
house belt this time?
A PRESIDENTIAL INTERVIEW
Senator Sherman is reported to have hid
an interview of more than an hour's dura
tion to-day, with the President; and found
him in a far more tractable mood than
hitherto. The Senator_ assured him . there
was no rbstillable cause for abandonment of
the principles upon which the Republican
party carried the Presidential election. Nor
could he ,afford to cut loose from the men
who were first and 'foremost in securing thli
success of that party. The conversation i
said to have been quite unreserved and com
prehensive, and in reply the President insiss
ted that he had no wish•or purpose to invoke
any issue or estrangement among his Re
publican frionds.and supporters. No admit
ted that he owed his pressent• ofOvation to
the men of that party, and that while in
some, matters he might differ in, opinion
with them, ho did notpurpose to set up his
indiVidaal opinions against their combined
wisdom or ,desires. In regard to the Cop
perhead fawning and flatteries which
,had so
annoyed his,Republican friends, he said he
had been'in political life teo long to bade :.
colied by them.' "
THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
Several points in this document are de
serving of special consideration.
1. The has an
abolition party. .It agrees to stand by the
Cohstitutional.AMendmont prohibiting sla
very. bereinla discovered the reason why
the Democratic journals and orators no
longer designate Republicans as abolitionists,
by way of reproach. That epithet is driip'ped,
and now opprobrium is expressed in the *ord
radical. Some encouragement is deducible
herefrom. The Democrats having got so far
as to be abolitionists, may smile day get
sense enough to be radicals.
2. The democratic party has progressed so
far as to demand of men elected to Congress,
and other high places of trust, that they
" bear true faith to the Constitution and the
laws." Five years ago they thought
BUCHANAN, DAVIS, FLOYD and their 41550-
elate conspirators, were the best sort of demo
crats. Later, they had n warm admiration
for LEE, J ACKSON, BEAU RICOARD, B RECK-
I NEI Do IC and that whole set. We are afraid
that upon being pressed, so as to get the
truth out of them, it would havb to be ad
mitted that they have improved very little
since. The last we heard of the ablest man
among them, in this Commonwealth, Mr.
%VM. B. REED, he was toasting JEFFERSON
DA is as the most exalted patriot in the
Union. We have a suspecion they would
all do so if they thought it politic.
3. That they go in for exempting the
property of the black people from taxation,
and putting the difference on white fulls ;
that is to say, they proclaim taxation with
out representatitm is " tyranny," and Ulm'
tr , elit tr. maintain that .‘ the white race
alone is entitled to the control of the gov
erment." or course democrats would not
be guilty of " tyrniiy," even towards the
black men ! The Mucks may think they
have seine experience to the contrary,
through long years of democratic advocacy
and practice of slavery, but suet fancy mist
necessarily he disposed of as mental hallu
cination.. We advise the negroes, neverthe
less, to watch and see if the democrats let
them oil from tax-paying.
1. That the brave Soldiers and Sailors
who put down the Democratic rebellion, are
entitled to ‘‘ lasting
,graitude.' It is :in im
provement to find thAlttemocrats in such a
frame of mind as to render thanks to t‘ Lin
coln's hirelings" for whipping them. As
no exceptions are made, t h e thanks must be
tendered to black soldier , and sailoi;s. Only
think .4 . it! a Democratic Convention ex
' presqing thanks for heroic
the Union '
But then. it see
they incan the black, shall have l,thinEr but
thanks, for they stoutly' declare the white
race shall Iniiniinlize place , of it nor
nml tru,t.
5. That each State has '• the e‘clu-ive
right to regulate the qualification of its o sen
That it is bad gr11111111:11', lint means
that while black soldiers and sailors, who
fought to defend the ['llion must accept
Democratic thanks, and then stand back,
out of the way, white rebels shall walk up
to the ballot loxes and vote each other into
office, and the go \ eminent they tried to des
troy, shall-not stop theni.
The Party and Platform are e‘actly suit
ed to each other.

I am gratified to see that you have organi
zed your Convention without difficulty. I
hope that without delay your Convention
will amend your State Constitution, abolish
ing Slavery, and denying to all future Legis
latures the powers to legislate that there is
property in man; also that tlfey will adopt
the Amendment to the Constitution of the
United States abolishing Slavery. If you
could extend the elective franchise to all
persons of color who can read the Constitu
tion of the United States in English, and
write their - Dames, and to all persons of col
or who own real estate valued at not less
than P 250, andpay taxes thereon, you would
completely disarm the adversary, and set
an example the-other States would follow.
This you can do with perfect safety, and you
thus place the Southern States, in reference
to free persons of color, tkpon the same bas
is with the Free States. I hope and trust
your Convention will do this, and ne a con
sequence the Radicals, who are wild upon
Negro Franchise will be completlly foiled
in their attempts to keep the Southern States
from rono wing their relations to the Union,
by ilot accepting their Senators and Repre
sentatives. ANDREW JOHNSON,
President United States
We confess this looks very much as if it
wore intended for a Now England State
Convention and the work of somewhat of a
a fanatic. lesounds negro all over and yet
the consistent Democracy aro never weary
in their praise of Andrew Johnson. On
their support of his policy rest all their
hopes of success in the coming campaign.
Every spoutor and writer in their ranks has
laid himself out for the most unbounded
eulogy of the President and denunciation
of negro equality. We would like much to
have their opinion on tho President's negro
suffrage letter as quoted above.
WIIEN.EVER a Copperhead insists that ho
is for the Andrew Johnson policy of resto
ration, ask him whether hp means that por
tion of it which reads as follows. 'We copy
froni Andrew Johnson's speech at Nashville
on the Ninth of Juno, - 4864
"But e . in calling a convention to restore
the State, who shall restore and re-establish,
it? ,Shall the man ..who 'gave :his influence
and his means to destroy the Go.vernment ?
le he to participate in the great work of re
organization ? Shall he who brought this
misery upon the State be permitted to con
trol its destinies ? if this be so, then all this
precious blood of our brave soldiers and of.
ficers so freely poured out will have been
wantonly, spilled. All the glorique yicto
ries , won by our noble armies will . go for
nought, and all the battle fields which have
boon sown with dead heroes during the re
bellion will have been , made memorable in
vain." ,

WASHINGTON, March 10, 18611
Now since the ebullition caused by the
difference between the Executive and "Cen
tral Direct()) y" has in a manner cooled
down and thinking men have had time to
reflect upon the condition of affairs, it is
discovered that the joyful anticipation of
those who hoped for a rupture between these
powers have gone for naught, and on the
contrary evidence goes to show that the
breach is being materially lessened and in
the ultimate results to be obtained both
Congress and the 1 t.esident stand upon the
same footing. The purpose of the govern
ment is to govern for the good of all, and
the latter has given his whole heart to this
labor. As enunciated in his speech of the
22d of February, he is but pursuing the course
marked out by T'resident Lincoln, which
lie inherited as a sacred legacy, and which
without variation he has strictly adhered to,
and will pursue until a re-united country
and happy people, rejoicing in its wisdom
shall shower their gratitude on its fearless
champion.
The protracted and very able debate in
the Senate on the joint proposing
an amendment to the Constitution relative
to the basis of representation in Congress,
wne cloyed last week by Senator FEssiENDEN
who reported it. to the Senate, it will be re
membered, sometime since. The speech of
this veteran statesman, like that delivered
ject, was remarkable .for its clearness, its
logic and complete grasp of the whit
tion. It consisted more titan anything else,
of it review of the speeches of Senators SuNI
NER, 11ENnatcKs and IIucKALEw, against
the passage of the in asure, and to a great
extent completely disposed of ninny of the
arguments of those gentlemen. \\ bile the
speaker agreed that the amendment was not
all that could be wished, inasmuch us it did
not immediately enforce sulfriige
in the late rebel states, its practical operation
would have made such a result inevitable at
n distant day. The resolution however,
failed to pass by the requisite two-thirds
vote, but an attempt will be made in the
Senate next Thursday to modify the plan
by adopting the nunilair of votes as it may

The connoisseurs of fine arts in Washing

in the execution or perspective of these paint

perfect. Upon close study the gazer could
help but seem to stand in the great valley of

HARRISBURG
Special:C4raspondenee of the Carlisle Herald
: Mum9au no, March 14th 18G6
I informe!LyOultwo weeks ago of the final
passage, by both Houses of AN ACT author
izing the, Philadelphia and Erie Railroad
Company to:build branches through adjoin
ing counties. There Was great opposition to
this bill, emanating principally from the
North Western portion of the State, and in
fluential citizens generally who are interes
ted in the success of the Atlantic and Great
Western scheme, which this bill was calcu
lated to knock in the head. Large delega
tions of citizens called upon the Governor, I
earnestly urging him to‘tweto the measure
and on Monday evening he sent to the House,
in which it originated, a message vetoing
the bill with the explanation that his chief
objection to the act was embraced in the
provisions of the fourth section, giving the
company an exclusive property in the
routes that might be surveyed and maps of
which might be flied in the office of the
Secretary of the Commonwealth, to the in
jury of other enterprises. For this reason,
while he approves of the general provisions
of the bill which are 'audibly intended to
open up the resources of adjoining counties,
he is constrained to return the bill without
his approval. On the heads of this veto,
'Senator CONNELL on Tuesday morning read
in place anUL act of similar import, excluding
those proviCions which are so objectionable
to the Governor. After all, it is conceded
on all hands that the Governor was right,
and that a bill funned in accordance with
the general provisions only of the old draft
will serve equally as well for the purposes
named ; though, introduce at this late day in
,he Legislative session, itOs not improbable
hat the opponents of the 'Philadelphia and
Erie may tight the new bill off until after
he linal adjournment.
THE romiNc; roLiTicAl. c.olt,Al(rN
Promises to be as lively as it will belong,
nothing new is just now developed. Every -
Union paper in the commonwealth has put
its shoulder to the wheel and. resolves to
work with a hearty good will for the election
of the nominee of the Union Convention.
The party was never more united than it is
to-day, on Gen. Jolts - W. CivtAay. The
friends of Ileister Clymer seem first a little
less sanguine than they were On the day of
his nomination. Their ardent hope that the
General might not obtain the nomination,
or that divisiob in the Republican raid.;
would be the result of our imiberution,,
been cruelly blasted, and they are now as
tounded at the enthusiasm which the nomi
ination that gallant soldier arron-ed
all over the State.

unable to repay, but, it shall he our aim to
try and reciprocate as opportunity may afford
to the best if our ability, and you as here
tofore stand first on the list of the liberal
business men of out Borough, not only to
our company but to all others, you have our
heartiest thanks ; and it is the unanimous
wish that you may have increased prosperity

We will ever if necessary, look first to the
interest of our friends: we shall, we truly
hope, come up to your expectations, and yet
while we hope to be excused for not specially
acknowledging our home contributions we
feel it a duty to mention the business men of
