fty Judge Robert Flint, a. Democrat,
has been appointed Postmaster at Fond du
Tmc, Wisconsin, and it is understood there
that all Federal officers who do not sus
tain the President's policy will be re
moved. It is believed that the bill passed by
Congress for the admission of Colorado
into the Union has so many objectionable
features that it will he returned to the
Senate by the President without his sig- j
nature.

of the Comanche Indians had attacked
Fort Arbuck'e, Chickasaw Xation, and
carried off all the horses and killed some
cattle. It is also reported that the same

mitting still further depredations. The
Indians could not be pursued, as there

The Radicals of Cambria County.
13eak Dem. & Sent. : I have given my
views as to the Democratic " posish "
permit me to refer to the radical position.
You will observe that Doevans has called
the Convention together on the 28th May.
This is early, but there is trouble. Mr.
Barker will not, like Mr. Johnson, " pro
bably walk over the course unopposed."
j The early call of the Convention is a "There were nineteen posters and fold
Idodjre. Mr.- liarker has been neglecting ' crs receiving $G.50 each per day. The
his duties in Congress, till even old Mr. j
Lloyd is out in a card on the subject, in
order to secure a re-nomination.
Captain William R. Hughes has been
spoken of for Congress and would be
formidable, but he is suspected of having
been born in this neighborhood, and of
being a Cambria county man in all his
feelings, and, of course, will have no sight.
The fight will therefore narrow down to a
contest between Barker and.Morrcll, not
withstanding the admitted superiority of
Mr. Hughes to either of these gentlemen,
for the reason that they arc both Maine
State Yankees, and watch the main chance.
The fight will be close, for though Morrcll
has the most friends, liarker has the most
districts, and seems to have the inside
track and a very large one it is. The
gentlemen are both wealthy but respecta
ble, and the latter has been in Congress a
small portion of the present session. This
unfortunate contest grows out of the fact
of there being two Maine men in one
i county. At any rape cither Ebensburg
or Johnstown will get the man, and as
none of the county ticket can come within
1,000 of an election, we must be satis
fied. For Assembly no radical candidate de
sires defeat. Mr. James Conrad, does
not desire a re-nomination as he is too con
servative to follow Stevens. Still some
man may be scared up.
OBSERVER.
The Plan ok the Reconstulctionists.
After five months of severe labor the revo
lutionary faction in Congress has at last
1 brought forth what is called by their jour-
nahj "a plan of reconstruction," the main
part of which is a proposed amendment
to the Constitution, which, when stripped
of verbiage, is as follows :
"Sec. 1. Negroes shall be made citi
zens. "Sec 2. States which do not give
J negroes the privilege of voting shall not
! count them as population in the apportion
i ment of representatives.
"Sec 3. Only negroes and white
men who opposed the rebellion shall vote
at the next Presidential election.
"Sec. 4. Slave owners shall not be
paid for the loss of their slaves by eman
cipation, and neither States or the Federal
Government shall pay the rebel debt.
"Sec 5. Congress shall have power
to pass any law it may see fit to pass,
without regard to the Constitutional rights
of the people and of the States, and with
out Tear of an executive veto."
It will lie seen, says the Philadelphia
JS'eirs, a Republican paper, that the lirst
two sections give equality and franchise
to negroes, whether they have been loyal
or disloyal ; and the third one deprives a
large number of white men, who have not
been convicted of any crime, of the rights
of citizens. This is something more than
negro equality, and it will require more
than ordinary .acuteness of vision to ena
ble any one to see the justice of insisting
that States shall give the right of citizen
ship to negroes who have given "aid and
comfort" to tlip rebels, and deprive white
men of it.
Axotiieu Sru iDE. Cases of death by
suicide, have become very frequent in
this count', during the past few months.
Within as many months no less than four
persons have taken their own lives. We
arc' now called on to chronicle the death
of Adam Ckamek, of Blacklick township,
in this county, who committed suicide at
Campbell's Mill, in that township, on
Thursday last, lie had for many years i
leen the miller at this establishment, and
had always been regarded as a quiet and
industrious man. We are informed that
fears of famine induced him to commit
the rash deed. He had gone to the mill
md remained there longer than usual, some
onc of his family went to seek him, and
found him suspended by the neck to a
joist in the mill dead. " He was about 60
years of age. Indiana Messenger.
As Augusta, Ga., paper states that a

The Radical politicians seem to be all
of a piece, wherever they are found.
Luckily there are some honest men among
them, and they serve to reveal the doings
of the majority. One of these raro birds,
some days ago, undertook to ventilate the
doings of his party in the Legislature of
Pennsylvania. Alluding to the extrava
gance of the lower branch of that body,
he said :

ting to 2,400. The Auditor General
thought the charge enormous, and cut it
down $800. The person presenting the
bill did not complain, but gave as an ex
cuse for his exorbitant charge, that he was
to divide the profits with the Superintend
ent of Public Buildings."
That will answer for a sample even of
Missouri Radicalism. But this Pennsyl
vania Legislature went further in imita
ting ours. The last days of its existence
were signalized by raising the salaries of
most of ihe officers, and finally tftey voted
themselves $30Q a piece. The fellows knew
where the milk in the cocoanut lay as well
as ours. St. I,ouig Republican.
Moses. The Radical press have fallen
into the habit of speaking of President
Johnson, by way of derision as "Moses."
There is more jertinenee in this designa
tion than most people, at first glance will
imagine. After Moses had delivered the
children of Israel from the clutches of the
Egyptians, under the guidance of God,
they became dissatisfied with him
thought him a slow coach false to his
pledges and promises and thereupon "the
people gathered themselves unto Aaron,
and said unto him. l"p, make us God's
which shall go before us ; for as for this
Moses, the man that brought us out of
Egypt, we wot not what is become of
I him."
Aaron took their jewelry and made
them a molten calf, which they fell to
worshipping. The Almighty became so
sorely displeased with this conduct He
.would have visited swift destruction upon
the whole of them had it not been for the
intercession of Moses ; and he encountered
great difficulty in inducing the people to
return to the worship of the true God.
Like Moses, President Johnson, in the es-
tiination of the Radicals, was a slow
coach, as false to his professions and
promises, and they turned to Stevens and
called to him "lp, make us gods which
shall go before us " Like Aaron, he has
made them a political molten calf, which
they are now worshipping instead of the
Constitution. Moses like, President John
son is calling upon the people to abandon
this false worship and return to the . wor
ship of the Constitution, lest they shall be
visited, as a punishment, with political
death, as the Children of Israel would
have been visited with nhj-sical and moral
death, had they persisted in the worship
of the molten calf that Aaron had made
for them. Columbus Statesman.
The workings of the Freedmens Bureau
are driving poor whites from the South.
Recently one hundred white emigrants of
all ages and sexes, from the interior of
North Carolina, passed Fortress Monroe
westward bound in search of employment.
The preference given to negroes by the
heads of the Freedmen's Bureau has caus
ed this state of affairs. It is the practic
al effects of an institution which, since its
creation, has been prolific of misery to all
classes in the South, and is about as sensi
ble and practicable in its operations as were
the government workshops of the late
French revolution. The Radicals expend
all their sympathy on the colored race.
They are to be fed, clothed, educated, and
made citizens of, while the poor whites
are driven into exile, unnoticed and un-
i cared for. This point the white men of
Pennsylvania must meet in October next.

Baltimore, May 10. The results ol
the failure of Bayne & Co., of this city,
already known to the public as the prime
cause of the failure of tho Merchants'
National Bank of Washington, prove to
have been more disastrous financially than
at first supposed. Four of our city banks,
at least, are sufferers. One of the oldest
and most reliable is said to have lost about
$390,000, which will, no doubt, somewhat
curtail dividends for a time. Another is
said to have lost $100,000 by the same
operations, and besides these losses many
private individuals have lost largely.
Tin: disunionists continue to ouote the
Democratic platform of September, 1804
j that four years of war had then failed to
restore the Union. Nevertheless, after
one whole year of profound peace, and
two years after the adoption of the quo
ted platform, they insist upon it, that the
Union is not yet restored, and declare that
it shall not be. The followers of old
Thad, are rather dull of comprehension
or they might see the point.

Confession of Probst, the Murderer.
Saturday morning (the day of the rour-
deri was a dark, cold and rainy day. I
went out with Cornelius about half past
seven o'clock in the morning. He took
the horse and cant with him and we went i
to the ditch in the rear of the hay-rack.
I took the big ax with me as we generally
did to cut roots with. Cornelius sat down
under the big tree and I got behind him.
My heart failed me and it was some time
before I could brace myself up to commit
the deed. I raised the ax several times
before I left it come down on him. 1 fi
nally struck him on the back of the head
and then cut his throat. I then put him
into the cart and hauled him to the hay
rack, where I concealed him. He always
had the strap around his waist. There
was some blood in the cart, but I washed
it off with some hay. The sight of the
blood produced in me a devilish and blood
thirsty feeling, and I could have killed a
hundred persons if they had been about
the farm.
I then put some wood in the cart and
drove up to the barn. I left the horse and
cart standing there, and went into the
barn, takirg with me the large and small
axes and a hammer. I then went into
the house, and told John, the oldest boy,
to come out and help me in the barn. He
did so, and I struck him down. I then
went after Mrs. Dearing, and told her
something was the matter with the colt.
She came out, and after she entered the
barn I dispatched her with the small ax.
I carried the bodies and placed them in the
small building at the far end of the barn.
I then went inio the house and called the
other children out, with the exception of
Annie and the baby, and slaughtered them
in the same way. I then went after tho
others. I carried the baby in my arm
and Annie walked by my side. I seated
the baby in the hay while I killed the sis
ter, and then murdered the baby.
Question. How was it that you struck
the baby so often?
Answer. 1 was in a hurry. I then
carried the children and laid them with the
mother, after which I took the harness off
the horse' put the cart away, and went
into tho house to look for plunder. I se
cured a large pocket-book with $10 in it,
two counterfeit bills and a three dollar bill.
About half past three o'clock Mr. Deer
Jnjj and Miss Dolan arrived. Miss Dolan
went direct to the house, and I told Mr.
Deering something was the matter with
the steer. lie went right away into the
stable, and while lie was looking at the
animal 1 struck him as the others. Miss
Dulan then came into the barn and I killed
her. None of them made a remark I
knocked them all senseless.
Mr. Deering's boots I took off his feet,
thinking they mipht contain his money. I
secured Miss Dolaifs pocket-book, but it
had only a few small notes in it. After
secreting Ihe bodies under some hay I went
back to the house, made anotltcr search
for plunder, secured the revolvers, watches,
fcc ; eat some bread and butter, went back
to the barn, fed the horses, cattle, chic kens,
ifce., and left the house in the evening. I
did not see any large bills in Miss Dolan's
possession. I was afraid to leave the ba
by in the house lest it might cry and at
tract attention. Mr. Deering did not take
off his gloves before going into the barn.
The prisoner then related the story of his
stopping on 1" rout street, selling the watch
es. &c. , which all came out at the trial.
l'robst stated yesterday that he worked
for his father at carpentering at home, and
was not banished from the country for any
bad deed.
lie further said that he would have
confessed to all the murders before, but he
feared if he did so he would be torn to
pieces by the mob. During the trial, and
even at the time of his capture, he states
that he had a disposition to make a con-
fession, but the yells of the crowd when
he first saw them frightened him into the
belief that if they knew the extent of his
crime all the police in Philadelphia could
not save him from their clutches.
l'robst also states that he did not like
to go to the court-room during the trial, as
the yells of the crowd when he made his
appearance on the street made a deep and
terrible impression on him, and he much
preferred the solitude of hia cell.
Although no one had doubted for a long
time, that he was solitary and alone in his
devilish work.it is a source of infinite
satisfaction to know, from his own lips,
that he had no accomplice
