FOR GOVERNOR, Gen. JOHN W. GEARY, OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY. FIRE..=-On Tuesday night about 10 o'clock, our citizens wero again called to the scene of the incendiary's work. This time MR DAVID SIPE'S stable, situated on Dickinson alley was the build* fired, and it, with its con tents—two tine horses, n valuable hearse and a buggy, were utterly destroyed. The firemen were promptly on the• ground and succeeded in saving the adjoining property some of which Was in imminent danger ME. SIPE'S toss is heavy, amounting at a rough guess, to $ 2,000 which is Martially covered by insurance A noticeable feature of the most recent of these incendiary fires is that the torch has been applied in the.ecening or early night before our citizens have retired, rind that the localities selected have been in the most prominent and populous portions of our borough. The inferences to be drawn from these facts seem to us to be that the awfully frequent warnings have its yet failed to awaken our people to a consciousness of the ever present danger from arson ; that the miscreants who commit these outrages per- redly aware of this fart, flrr house, store or stable at their convenience or caprice; and that our local constabulary is entirely pow- .erless to provost crime of this spocies Fellow townsmen, your own almost night ly experience will bear witness that we have not colored 01e facts, and we submit Unit the all-absorbing duty of the hour is that ilia- mediate steps should be taken to arrest this besom of destruc.tion and punish the villain 4)(IS 11111 pUll 1LL1.1L.1,,,K7JV lieii•CiOVlSea crimes It scorns Providential that no human life hits yet been lost through these con flagra- tions, but Providence though proverbially patient justly abandons those who help not themselves. 10 multitude of counsel there is wisdom, and wesuggest that a town meet ing be called to elaborate some general plan of offense and defense in the present crisis Something otust be (lout noir. We think the beet way to determine what that some thing shall be is through a town meeting Who Will move in the tnalter To-DA y Capt. Hutchinson's Speech Most of our readers will remember Capt. A. B. lluTTutvnox, who after lighting the rebels in the tleld tor three years, en gallant ly aided us in our campaign in this Coun ty against their copperhead s nipathizers, in 1864. The Captain is it native of Urn tre county and his fellow- , mhlier4 there recog nizing, his brave loyalty, sent him to repre sent than at Pittsburg in the late conven tion of the "boys in blur." On that iieeasion Captain Ilulehinson felt called upon to record his views on the ques tions now absorbing the attention of our people, and we print his speech in fulls on our first pligv to-day. The Captain's many friends here will be glad to see how stead fastly he stands by the true faith and to 1: now that his sword, voice and pen are as ever, ready to do battle against our Country's ene- EMI The Constitutional Amendments I.liA \veek Nvo publi,hed the Constittititonill ft -..,-/1 by both - houses of Congress and now to be submitted to the several States for ratification. As the prin elides enunciated in these concurrent reso lotions are those upon which the lfninn Republican party mean to light the impend ing campaign in this State and indeed throughout the country, it will he well, at the outset to examine the doctrines and prise pies taught therein. Considered as a. distinct and independent proposition the; article proposed as an amendment to our Ml tional constitution proposes nothing and case effect nothing which can he objected to by any intelligent citizen of loyal antecedehts. The broad declaration of United States citi zenship, and the assertion of rights under it, which are contained in the first section, will settle beyond dispute and for all time this important principle. It fixes permanently the new legal status of the Freedmen, and give a practical definition of national citi zenship under which personal rights nnd ob ligations may be enforced. The effect of it will also belsalutary, through the deliberate repudiation which it invOl 4 ves, of the con trolling, obligation of State citizenship over Federal allegiance, a heresy which controlled the actipia v af a majority of the Southern people at the outbreak of th , o rebellion. The emphatic repudiation of that heresy was ono of the most important, results of the war, and it is wise to secure it beyond all future dis pute by incorporating its assertion in the federal Constitution. Of course the pro posed amendment does not in any manner affect the question of suffrage, it not bqing an incident of citizenship, but a right con ferred and regulated by the States; so quit does not involve the vexed question Ot no- gro suffrage- The new adjustment of tho basis of fed eral representation provided for in the sec ond section of the proposed amendment, is one 'which is clearly' demanded, by the changed Condition of the South &owing out of the war and emancipation. Whatever was claimed as to the justice of the provision wYnch existed previous to. the war, allowing the 'South' to. send to Congress Representa . tives . for three-fifths of its .slaves, has no force now, There are atoWno slaves, and if the freedmen—being citizens of the United States-,are not allowed to vote, there is a .manifest injustice in permitting Southern whites to represent theta in Congress, and, therebygiving to the South a representation in Cdngress entirely disproportionate to that of the North,- . By .the apportionment of /860, the eleven' States u lately in rebellion are eLtitleifto fifty-eight Representatives, of whom represent the negro element. There - is -no -longer. : any.- reason for,-this„ Emend paten hits broken down alLeeotional . int e reats, tinged , upori . therefore, the propo3ed amendment.in regardto repre sentation has become necessary and •proper. The disfranchisement of prominent rebels,. the permanent recognition of the 'Federal war debt, and the formal repudiation of the rebel war debt, which are, the subjects of the remaining sections of the proposed amend ment, are matters concerning - , Which there should be no dispute. Wo come now to, that 4dotion . of tho scheme which makes the adoption of those resolutions as a part of the supremo law of the land the condition of conceding to the rebel States representation in Congress. It is this that constitutes the issue between the loyal people of the country and the op position party, made up, as it is, of robol copperheads, conservatives, office-hunters ct id w a ne genus, with President Johnson as leader or follower. The whole question di vested of all collateqs or sophistries, is whether the people of the loyal States are prepared to hand over the government to the control aid tender mercies of area who less than one short year ago were in the field with musket and cannon bent solely upon the irretreivahle overthrow and des truction of that government; or whether the qualifications and guarantees expressed in the amendment shall be insisted upon imperatively as antecedent to re-admission. We take it that there can be but one res ponse. Here is the Reading Journal's suMmary of the wholomatter. What Republican can feel faint-hearted with such It platform ty do battle upon ? lot, That Union men shall not be mal treated, or driven from their homes any where for the reason that they were in favor of the Union, or fought for it during the ERIE 2,1, at Rebel States shall not be rep re,cilied, say by two members of Congress, while 10):11 states have but one in propor- , tiun to their vote ; 3d, That no person who perjured him self, in add dirm to taking part ngainst the United Stites in the late rebellion, shall hold any public office under the United States or any State; unless the disability shall be removed by a vote of two-thirds in Congress; fth, That the thieves nod robbers who stole all the properly Of the United States they could lay their hands upon, and taught four years to retain their plunder, shall not litre the power to repudiate our public tdtt. or procure the assumption or the rebel war debt by the United States Geary Clubs It is an unmistakable fact that the Cop perheads are now moving heaven and earth, inc instrumentalities of a region much warmer than either, to secure the election of Ilcister Clymer, their chosen candidate for Governor of Pennsyl vania. if the fact can be accomplished by unwearied labor and industry, by fraud and misrepresentation, and by the exercise of that ingenious manomvering, for, which they are so prominently distingukhed, to gelhcr wi th the employment of vast - slims of money, which they appear to have under their control, thin they will succeed unless our men are active and vigilent in their ex ertions to de: oat them, We have therefore urged upon the, dilferent election districts the propriety of organizing and keeping in full operation, until the day of the election, (le try Clubs, to hold their regular meeting, cir,nilit:e pamphlets and such other impor tint information as will make the great Union party of the commonwealth a unit, and prevent our soldiers in particular, from being decoyed into the c imp o the enemy. It is upon the Later element that these copperheads are now especially engaged. Their Johnson and Clymer %Into:are being or gaiii4ed everywhere. They have their meet ings their speeches, their songs, their music told their linnum s; mid have already appointed it (.0011 . 11.6.0 (or the Fourth of July, in this bor,ugh, and by their civil and military di,play on that, :Ind similar occasions, ex pert to reap a harvest or sympathy and votes.

Editor of the Telegraph: Allow a solder to inform the public, through the columns of your paper, .g the workings and doings of the "Boys in Blue" of Lower Cumber land county, Pa., and of the treatment that they have received at the hands of traitors. We have formed ourselves into nn organiza tion for our mutual protection, and now number 105 honorably discharged sOldiers residing near the home of General Geary, and nightly add members to our roll. We have held meetin g s at different places and have invariably been -treated kindly and with respect by all true and loyal citizens, but not by Copperheads and_ traitors. We had appointed ivmeeting at Shiremanstown on the e‘ ening of the 21st inst.. which was duly held. A choir of young ladies offered their services to sing several patriotic: songs for us, at our meeting, which wore thankfuly received by the. •‘ Boys in Blue." This being too much Unionism for the Copper heads of Shiremanstown, they determined to break up our meeting by making threats that they would throw bomb shells into our camp, and intimated to the ladies not to sing for us, saving that there would be a disturbance. We were, however, spared the unpleasantness of having alight, in con sequence of the dislike that Copperheads have for the* smell of brimstone. They would, no doubt, like thcl assassin, have stab bed us in the dark, but we were wide awake, for we saw some of the same sort in the front, only more of men than these, for they shoul dered their guns and met us manfully, but these world-ho stny-at-Immo pitrinte. thnugh favorable to the rebels, were too cowardly to do so; and now, the war being over, they choose td nano) , and disturb us by their threats and foul-mouthed sling. But in spite of their threats, we held our meeting, and marched through the town with our colors flying, and cheering for the Union and the " Boys in Blue." On leaving, one of the more brave Copperheads proposed three cheers for Clymer, when the l• Boys in Blue" gave him three groans instead of cheers, and left the town triumphant and with no blood lost.

STATE CONVENTIONS.—RepubIican Sta:o Conventions were held during the past week inA r t . 6m), Vermont, Ohio and Indiana, for the purpose of nominating State Tickets to be voted for this Fall. In each one of these Conventions the sentiment was unani mous in favor of the Ree'onstruction Amend ments passed by Congress, and making their endorsement obligatory upon every State lately in Rebellion before the re-ad mission of their Senators and Representatives into the Congress of the United Slates. President Johnson and his policy is passed over iu silence. In the House of Representatives, on Wed nesday last, a bill was passed extending the pension laws, to provost-marshals, deputy provost marshals and enrolling officers dis ithled in the discharge of their duties, and increasing the' pension to widows of soldiers and sailors having •children, et the rate of two dollars per month for each child under sixteen years of ago.

C., 4:uno 25, 1866 The , National Inteltigerthr —about the most .respectable democratic newspaper:in the country ;' which, altheughlt advocates tho' waning ' ' fortunes of a party averse 'to every political tenet not emanating from the doss' pools of revolution' and' disuniorlism ; a •party that, has inculcated, within it, irre spective of the metaphor, all the virus of the genus copperhead—lends its assistance to an unholy cause in a sort of legitimate mariner, and totally unlike the disgracefully low toned and scurrilous efforts of sonic of its e qually bitter but insignificant cotemporaries. .11 - ut the dignified and astute American thun darer was misled the other day in flaunting ly displaying in its leading columns what purported to be a correct report of tho Sol diers' Convention which met in Carlisle laAt month. In its laudable desire not to mis represent, a most woful imposition was per petrated, in that the disgraceful proceedings of the body were set forth as representing the unanimous sentiment of , the honorably discharged soldiers of that portion of Penn sylvania. Loyal Washington readers of the paper in question were sorely perplexed that soldiers of the bravo old Keystone, who had endured the rigors of a four years war, in 'contending for the preservation of the Union, and sound principles, should entertain such feelings as were indicated in the resolutions adopted by the convention. It was an as tounding paradox, and only unravelled by the glorious news from Pittsburg, at which place, as you are aware, f lee voice of honora bly discharged soldiers all over the State, put to the blush mahignants who had endeavor ed to impugn their motives, and quickly dis polled the illusion wherever it existqd, ii rogaru to their political tone, and patriotism The fraud upon tho people here with refer oro. to dos proceedings of your County Con vention, was at once mado clear, but no though any action of the Intedligcnedir. The journal did not even 'publish the Pittsburg; resolves, but as I have before given it cred it for fairness, the omission was probably cam-ed by the carelessness of the agent of the associate press, or perhaps the presiding Rip Van Winldo of the editorial sanctum did not "see it•" It is respectfully suggest- ed that "CilllCllSiall,Y—an individual - who secs all sorts of things not visible to the hu man eye ; who seems hr be in good odor with tin! lutelligencer people ; a graphic senato rial reporter withal—communicate the in formation truthfully. Although Into its publication would act 118 a sort of amend,- hunrable for giving publicity to dm Car lisle intelligence of the doings of a crowd of copperhead roughs, self-styled a cont•unti o n, and calling them the honm.ably dicharge(l s,,ldiert; of ('umbnrland Pa. As a drowning men grasp at straws, so do the leaders of what c o nstitutes the fossil remains of this almost abstdete democratic institution, resort to every artifice laid or in different, to promote its slow growth or re-. siewitate its dying carcass. The hell-devis ed and inhuman straits to which they are forced arc just now developing themselves, and if unsuccessful in propagating the Inter ests of their party, they will aim with the assistance of such auxiliaries as incendiarism and lawlessness, at national destruction. Only the other day a newspaper located in the midst of thislstpulous city, for uphold ing Oh right and fearlessly exposing the wrong, was compelled to suspend publica tion by ren , on of three successive attempts to apply the tr rob. It is difficult to conceive how any lune pos sessing a tithe of the lnunan attributes could conscientiously identify hi.nself with a po litical organization so closely allied to the principles of Lucifer. The dark chaotic re gions or Ilades would not equal the condi tion of affairs, moral, social and political which would exist rampant in this country were the copperheads ever to gain the ascen dency. It behooves the "goodly - company" of loyal men, then, to hold firmly - together, and stand a living bulwark against tffidr evil designs, to the end that law and order may pievail and all attempts at a second civil war be prostrated even at their inception, One word in this connection, and that is, how noticeable n "di-tinction with as differ ence.' exists between the conservative branch or the great Union party, and the Copper head element which would strive to affiliate with it. Though the former may some times differ as to the expediency of certain merLstire,4 proposed by the congressional ma jorities it i. un inconLruvortible fact that so for the finning, sickening ON eritlrCS or the contemptible sycophants who adopt that mode with the hope of securine• capital, have 'oeen repudiated Ivitl; loathing. In part evidence of this I can point to two organizations at the seat of government, with pri ncmles distinct as light and darkness. The leading mind of the one is Ex-Gov. RA N. D A LI, of I ll's., the i)ther ledge, iu i ts “head centre,” that sublime embodinn:tt of anarchial agitation and demagogueism, the lion. Ilosruo.tisnv Brain,Md. A good story is told of Wigfall, who, at the collapse of the rebellion, fell into the Ileinit'y of a party of I uion soldiers in Texas, Being well disgui,ed, he cut red freely into conversation witn the soldiers or the guard, and in the course of the conversation ask ed what they would do with old Wigfall if they were to catch him. "Oh, we would hang him, certain," was the reply. "And you would serve him right" replied I ; igfall. `•lf I should be with you I hate no doubt 1 should be pulling al the on/ of the Pope myself'" The double enlendre was not sus pected, and its Iht was thorefore lost, but is worth producing now. Gov. MORTON, in his Indianapulis :Teach, said: "And here let ine address a word I u the young men of Indiana. You are just start ing in life, with the world all before you, where and how to choose. Beware how you connect your fortunes wi.h a decayed and dishonored party, indelibly stained with treason, and upon who,e tombstone the historian will write: "False to liberty false to its country, and false to the age in which it lived." The Democratic party, has committed a crime for which' history has no pardon, and the memories of men no for getfulness; whose colors grow darker from age to age, and for which the execrations of mankind become more bitter from generation to generation." A GnottoLt journal bolds this language: "We hold that there is absolutely no ob ligation on any Stato in the Federal Union to be.what is termed 'loyal' to the Govern ment of that Union, be that State in the North or the South, or known by the name of either Massachusetts or Florida, South Carolina or Wisconsin. The thing is a free will thing altogether. The South has a future before her, and if now cast in the pit by strong and wicked brethern will' yet, some day, like Joseph, come to bear sway in 'a mighty land. First and foremost to do so, her record must be pure. Striot, stern, un wavering republican contraction must be her rule. She must sail under no false colors, and neither affect d." penitence or a devotion that she does not feel." Does such talk as this invite the confi dence of loyal men? Is it a wonder that Radicals, or any other class of men endow ed with common sense, fail to perceive that people who so speak are fit to be admitted to- full participation in the control of the GovarnAtpt? Ex-Rebels experience so little difficulty in procuring pardons, that it puzzles us to know why the $20,000 dollar clause was ever made 'a. part of the'reeenstrtletion proolathation,, bo - that Air.

Tr-yite, During the early part et last week the 'citizens of our "peaceful and quiet town," -were thro W 0 into quite a turoro of excite ment by conspicuous posters announcing a "Grand Review of the Finnigan Bother hood" for Saturday the 2:lrit inst —The day dawned clearly and the weather was oppres sively warm, and the streets exceedingly dusty ; notwithstanding all this, at an early hour the town was thronged with smiling country lasses, accompanied by their gal hints, who were all anxious to see the " Fin- nigfu~s. „ At 2 o'clock P. 11 t. the ea Pa !citric, :natio its appearance on the Baltimore pike wending its way towards the town. Tho General commanding ( " Piggy -Dear-S w ne- Eye," ) rode at the head of the procession mounted on his fiery, untamed charger, and displayed some remarkable feats of horsemanship to the wonder and admiration of the spectators. He was accompanied by eight weathers of his staff, turd two buglers, all magnificently at tired. These wore followed by .',John Neutrality Band," composed of fourteen members, in their gorgeous chariot, drawn by foal' horses, which were dri VQII by the iden tical " Russel, of the London Times" who upon this oce..sion handled the " ribbons" with the same ease and grace which usually characterize his writings. A troop of horse men followed the "chariot," as a valid of honor, and then came the main body of the army, some in vehicles of all descriptions, (with ono piece of patent artillery invented by Surgeon General Guerildillas, Medical Director of the army,) and the rest on horse back. When the cavalcade arrived in front of the National Hotel, in honor to ?nine host, the band struck up "h ail to the chief," and continued to discourse, their sweetest music through the principal streets during the en tire route of tho procession. The dresses were of the most ancient and grotesque character ; and the many happy and smiling faces observed, and the numerous baguets presented all along the route, were sufficient evidences that the en tertainment was one of rare occurrence in our town ; and as everything, passed otf har moniously and without accident, wo 'incline to the opinion that this demonstration was ono of the most imposing;,orderly, and well conducted affairs tWer witnessed in our bor ough. The procession was halted in front. of, the Court Ifouso and 'the roll called, when each and every member of the cavalcade answered to his name, amidst tremendous applause from the bystanders. - , - The only thing that marred the festivities of this occasion w s the Unpardonable ne glect of some of our rincipal hotel and res taurant keepers t supply the, necessary quantity "Sala or Soup", as advertised, Pinch to t i cha rin and disappointment of those who,di not "Understatid the ropes.", The exit f the Finnigans" was us mys terious as their first appearance, their desti nation being entirely-unknown to any except tno Commanding (4cor who was ,excaad-.7 inglY reticent and rOrtlied to. impart 'forinatiorron the oubj opV.,: , Everything 'Alia ed off pleasantly, and will long bo remem bered by all who had the pleasure of wit noosing, it. Commencement Week. Tho exercises of Commencement week be gan on Sunday evening with the Baccalaure ate sermon to the Graduating Class delivered by Prof. S. D. Hillman at Emory Chapel. The effort was a highly creditable ono and was duly appreciated by the large audience which crowded the Church. His subject was the " War Element in Nature and its Lessons" and the orator justly made a di rect and practical application of his theme to the great questions now agitating the public mind. The contest of the Juniors for the prizes annually given for oratory came off on Mon , day evening. The following is a programme of the performance. The Wrongs of Ireland—E. N.

Other engagements prevented our bearing this address but we are informed lint it was well worthy of the Orator and he occasion. On Wednesday morning the address before the Alumni was delivered by Col. B. M. llonderson, of this Borough. Thu orator showed the necessity of universal education Its a 'prerequisite to the stability of our in stitutions and the prosperity and happiness of the people. His address evinced that ho hail thought carefully and earnestly on his subject and was an unanswerable argument in favor of elevating the masses through the cul tivation of their minds. On Wednesday Evening tlie Sigma Chap ter or the Theta Delta Chi Fraternity held a convocation in the Court House to which an address by Horace J. Canfield .1 4 :sq., of Buffalo, N. Y., and a Poem by Alvan F. Gibbons. Esq., of Parkersburg W. Va., were delivered. Both orator and Poet acquitted themselves with great credit and to the entire satisfaction of the audience, although Bish op Simpson was at the Hall and Rev. John. Chambers at the second Presbyterian Church. on the same evening, there was a very fair audience in the Court House, and the merit hers of the fraternity have every reason to congralitiate theni elves on the success of their convocation.

Ile also spoke of the degeneracy Of former nations and assumed no fear of, any such result to ours because of the in creasing vitality of Um. mind. .The orator appeared to have great confidence in his own powers but wo think a cultivation of his voice and gestures would add-much to the effects of his future performances. Skepticism a . ,Blessing. —George Singer, Halifax.—Tho orator took the ground that skepticism was beneficial to Christianity as it excited controversy.
