treat 'very briefly of , the elaiins of. the
Awo.-great-orgaiiizations-upon-the__Tote
and support of, the citizens of the nation:
The. Democratic party, being the older
of the two,, we shall speak of it first.
Founded as it woe upon the great doe-.
trine of Justice, and equality 'to all, it
rapidly grew into a great and powerful
organization. : Fol. many years, the his
tory of
-the country-Was but the history
of 'the dominant party. Trusted, loved
and cherished by, many of our . greatest
and aqylest. statesman, it fuinished us
with' Repreeentatives, Senators, Gover
nors and PresidentS. , Constant and al
mosthirivarielsucoess gave it:a discipline
and enthusiasm which bred confidence
throughout its, entire organization, and.
sent a thrill4ef despairliroughout r,the
ranks orits - oppoitents:. But long ao
ciustomed power and undisputed sway
gave birth to corruption and false doc
trine. Its - princiPleh changed from those
of the Declaration of Independence to
those of g feudalism founded upon a worse
than European serfdom, the absolute and
Testa"al enelavA if nn ~••••
perpetual eicridavement of - an entire race.
The slaireiokigarchy became the dictators
of its platforms and the founders of its rtew
•
creed. Oppression. and bondage, not lib
erty and equality, became its rallying cry.
A few great men with great souls imbued
with the spirit and geniut . of our institu
tions, endeavored to stem,the downward
current.' Their 'courage failed_ them ; they
compromised and were swept• away !
Freedom became seotiorial, and - slavery
national. Southern statesmen never .be-
tiering in the equality of men, saw in
the future a . great pro-slavery empire, and
northern demagogues in the hope of gain
and position joined with them in the un
holy crusade against the principle upon
which our system of GyVerninent. is
founded. ' Th 9 history of the Democrat
ic' party became simply the-history of the ,
slavery. Unjust 'compromises and- -hu-,
miliatlng concessions weremade. Still
more • were demanded, nntil at length the
passage of the iniquitous and barbarous
Fugitive Slave Law, and the border-ruf
fian outragesiinflioted_upon the-free-stato
men of Kansas, awakened the moral
sensibilities of the Northern people. •,A
new party, almost in the twinklitig of an
eye, sprang into existenoni. In its first
great struggle in 1856, under the lead
of the gallant Fremont, it Buffered defeat.
Nevertheless it,grew and flourished until
in 'lB6O, under the banner of Lincoln,
and Hamlin it marched to a glorious vie
_
tory. The Democracy, long in power and
unaccustomed to defeatovpre unwilling
to abide by the , result. They appealed
to arms in support of the —heresy of
State rights, which had become their car
dinal principle as a political organization.
State after State seceded; rebellion be
came organized in the veryhousehold of
the last Democratic Preaide, t. The Re
publican party came into power in tho
midst of Denlooratio involution. It took
up the cause of the 'distracted country,

The TVar does Bravely On.-
The 'Democratic commitie in eT)mpli:
- misee — with tlfe call of the dissenter 4 met
at the Arbitration chamber on oaturday
last. What actually transpired, we, of
course, do 'not fully - knew: -- put fronithe
setup of 'information that we have been
able to Pick up — Ve are satisfied that an-
Barnues"llappy Family," the ani
mals were by no means friendly. Sitting
at a distance off,' we could distinctly hear
the snapping arid roaring of the larger
beasts, and, at one time, we feared a,dirc
and — ln iy conflict. The presence of
their trainers on , the outside of the cage,
however,' seemed - to have a sufficiently
kiiiralltiug influence to prevent blood
shed.
'The object-of the Meeting,. as we un
deratand it, Was to issue the call for their
county convention: That is, such was
the object of these in the interest of the
nomination of certain parties for Congress.
In this their friends most signally failed
and 'we are told,by those who pretend
to know, that this failure effectually
shelves them,.and throws all the proba.
bilities - and prospects in favor of another
party of aspirants. In the oction.of the
'committee, the Chairman seems io have
been fully Sustained, mid, the dissenters
consequently; rebuked. But 4his
means settles-the - fieree-quarrel that
,is
going%-on among the different candidates
and their friends. Even should the re
sult of last Saturday's meeting effectually
dispose of the two teen in whose interest
it was called, theii is a sufficient number
ofr.6tmdidatesAeft to keep - up tlue.light, in
its Bitterest and most violent shape.
We hear all sorts of imputations east
uphn flit , manner in which certain candi
dates are conducting the contest. We
are told that "whiskey and money," the
great seducers of the Democratic masses,
•arc, being-freely ' distributed by certain •
parties, and that by this means alone do
they hope to Clutch the notidnation. It
certainly is too bad to use ate common
means of buying votes in a preliminary
oonl©i between themselves, and - may be
of injury to them in the • greater conflicts
with the Republican party, for, doubtless,
some of them will become so disgusted
that they will hesitate to use it hereafter.
All we would say to them is, gentle
men fight on, malign and slander each other
all you can. But the hone of contention
in a very worthless one.• 111 r. Glossbren

But no! Every.word'of Mr. Buchanan's

word-was not every man whose,'nnine has
sincolgeome most prominent in causingAnO
devastation of half a continent, on confiden
tial terms with Mr. James Buchanan and a
wielder of his power? Did he consult with
Douglass? 01., did he not persecute and fl-•
riskily ruin, by wholesale bribery,- coercion
and perjury, that greatest and most faithful
of patriotic Democrats,-the,only man who
if elected PreAdent, coul ifve_ayl3rted all
our late calamities; and who must have been
elected, just so surely as t e • sun-will shine
to-morrow, haddt not been that all the.pat
romp, and all the bribery, d every agen
cy of - coercion and corruption at his com
mand, were put in operation by the late Old
Public Funstionary, to break up the NatiOn
al Convention of the Democratic party in
1860, thereby "aiding and sueuring the tri
.umph,of.Secession," as the Southern lenders
thought4lhoped and believed. If the late
Mr. Buchanan had "virtues public and pri
vate," as sot forth in Judge Woodward's
resolutions-or, if he Was "an illustrious
sago '•atid. statesman," as certified by the
.same high and always 'hitherto roapected
authority,- , ---we can only say, "Heaven long
protect this country from ‘publie virtuosi' of
a similar chase . ; and may God, in His infi
nite wisdom end mercy, henceforth and for
ever spare us any Illustrious *sageness and
statt3tmansblp' of do foul, so . cowardly, and
'so ruinous a character!". But for the direct
encouragement and aid
_given by TamosHu

mune, the Southern political leaders-the
--Southern politicians-could never • have
drugged the Southern people into the dread
ful and sanguinary folly of 'an attemptdo

Buchunan's malignant hate - and - enVy- - -
the cold, black, bittter poisonous envy of a,
nature at once domineering and imbecile,

lasi would have become President on the
4th of March, 1861; and under the -repress

have been tramped out with no more troub

ins LETTER-OF, ACCEPTANCE
To- General Joseph .R. Rainey, President
National Union Republican Convention:
In formally accepting the nomination of
the National Union Republican Converdion
of the 21st of day inst., it seems ptopor
that some statement of views beyond the
- more acceptance of - the - nomination - should
be expressed. The proceedings' of the Con
vention were marked with wisdorrk mopera-
Alan and patriotism, and I believe express
the feelings of the great mass of those who
sustained the country through its recent
trials. ^I indorse the resolutions: If elected
to the office of President of the United
States, it will be my endeavor to administer
all the laws in good- faith, with economy,
and with. the view of, giving peace, quiet,
and protection everywhere; In times like
-the present itris impossible, or at' least-erni-r
-nently_im'propet, to lay down a policy to be
adhered to, right or wrong, throtigh.an ad
ministration of four years. New political
issues, not foreseen',
rfireconstantly arising;
the views of the public , on old ones are con
stantly changing, and a purely administra
tive officer- should always bo left free to exe
cute the will of the copie..._ Lal ways _have
respected that - will, and always snail.—
Peace and - '-universal prosperityits se
quence—with economy of ,administration,
will lighten the burden of taxation, while
it constantly, reduces the National debt.—
Let us have' peace::: - With , great respect,
your obedient servant,

Gratit, the Plqitner_of Shernian's
March.
In an address to the Philadelphia
Union Longue the other night, Gov;
Geary related, the following important
fact :
. On a' certain occasion - , when
with Grant at, Chattanooga', after 'the
cloth had been removed, ho called,for hie
maps, which ho sproad'•before me, and.
said : "Sir, you and 'your division have
been instrumental in obtaining the vic
tories around this City. The plan,for the
nest campaign is already formed and it
is proper that you should know it, I in
tend to, concentraterny troops around this
place, and.peur them bn Atlanta,, while
stronga attack is inade.on,Rioluno4l.
- tiii Atlanta falls;ii liiteloill'brtaken - for
the, sea shore ondiqg either at Charleston,
'pr Savannah; end having thus made our
point; we will enter thoTarolihas and
attack Richmond." This - was in 1863
nine months before the pity of Atlanta
was taken., Justice should be dOne, and
I tell yen, se that'you will know who it
was that planned the march to the sea,
and bisected the Confederacy and brought
the rebellion to, a termination.
A largo number of clOrke b Republican in
pelittce, are being diemiceed from the m
oral depailmouts itt Washington.
A :Fact ' Wortley of Note.-
Mr. Colfax, in hip address to the com
mittee appointed by:the Chicago Gen
ieution to notify him of his nomination;
most, truthfully v .and pointedly . says:
,fltlistOry has already pro:Aimed-that the
viotorieth of the party you represent, dur
ing thelrecent war,• alwiys gave increased
hope_and_confidenee to the , nation,' while
its reverses and defeat' ever increased
the national peril no light - tribute
therefore, to the millions of Republicans
-in the forty-two States and territories
represented in the Chicago Convention,
- that our - organizatio,riThas - been - so — insep,
arably interwoven with the.best interests
of the Republic,' that -the triumphs and.
reverses of the one havn•Zbeen'the
. umphnand reverses of the other." What
'Mr. Colfax utters kr: fact worthy of the
careful 000sidertition of every patriot in
the land, be hie polities what they may.
A DemooratiO victory was everywhere
hailed by, the rebels as a victory for them.
On the chntrary a Republican victory
was always regarded as a triumph for the
cause of the Union. Perhaps, this ex
plains the anxiety of the Pemooraoy of
this day to have the issues of the past
buried and forgotten. Thanks to the
good and strong memories of the heroes
of the war, their record will never be
forgotten, but will last - for - all - time= to
condemn them as - unQithy of honor and
trust. - .
- Chief Justic'e Phase - has — written a
.letter in whi'oh he says, that he : still ad
heres to his "old creed of equal rights ;"
• and; that he would be exceedingly
. "if the -2 Detuociatio party would
take ground which would assure the
party against all attempts to subvert the
principle of universaj siiffrage established
in eight, and to be established in all the
Southern Constitations." What will
become- Of -the-negro=hativrvand he ro

their candidate, as' it.now now. almost

•Oovernor • Geary sent a congratulatory
telegraph dispatc& to General Negley, on his
nomination for Congress,
'The friends of Hancock and Pendleton are
getting tip it fierce fight, which, if not settled
before its mpetipg,..will most likely break up
-the Democratic National Convention in a

It is leaking out that for the last year all
the office holders under Johnson have been
taxed enormouslyand are to he subjected to
further taxation, in order to make a fund for
political uses.
Nearly all the _Dernocratic conventions

THE St. Louis Deutocrnt repudiates the
idea .that Missouri is doubtful.• It says
"Colint-. on Missouri for eleven votes for

Jim was prbbably eighty-five or ninety years
of ago, but ho himself had insisted upon it
for years phst that he was one hundred and
seventy-jive years old ! He was known by
the various names of "Pompey Jim," "Ban
ty Jim," and Mr. James Powell, the latter
being his " Sunday-go-to-meeting" cogno
men, of which ho was not a little prad,
Booty" Was a native of Baltimore coun-
ty, but was brought to Carlisle when quite
a lad, and was, for many_ years a bond ser
vant if the late Dr. McCoskry. After re- '
tiring from service, he established himself
in the " Boot and Shoe Blanking business,"
in which capacity ho acquired much fame if
not groat Hobos. With the students of
Dickinson College, as far back as fifty years
ago, Jim was a great favorite, and did as
much in the way of " polishing their under
standings"\
as did perhaps "tv y of the Pro
fessors of that venerable Instit lion. Many
were the tricks played by the et dents upon
Jim, and many were the stories ld at his o
expense, tome true and some other Ise, but
they established the fact, at least in relation '
to Jiro, that 1 • a nigger would steal." As
a man-of-all-work, Banty was 'led into the
