THE RESOLUTIONS.
The following resolutions were read,'
amidst great applause, and unanimously
adopted, viz:
Resolved, That the loyal people of the
South eprdially unite with the loyal
people of the North in thanksgiving to
the Almighty God, through whose aid
a rebellion unparalleled for its causeless
ness, its cruelty, and its criminality, has
been overruled to the vindication of the
supremacy of the Federal Constitution
over every State and Territory of the
Republic.
Resolved, That we demand now, as
we have demanded at all times since
the cessation of hostilities, the restora
tion of the States in which we live to
their old relations with the Union, op
the simplest and fewest conditions con
sistent with the security of the nation
and with the protection of our lives,
property and political rights, now in
jeopardy from the unquenched enmity
of rebels lately in arms.
Resolved, That the unhappy policy
pursued by,Andrew Johnson, President
of the United States, is in its effects up
on the loyal people of the South unjust,
oppressive and intolerable, and accord
ingly, however ardently we desire to
see our respective States once more rep
resented in the Congress of the United
States, we would deplore their restora
tion on the inadequate conditions pre
scribed by the President, as tending not
to abate but to magnify the sorrows and
perils of our condition.
Resolved, That with pride in the pat
riotism of the Congress, with gratitude
for the fearless and persistent support
they have given to the cause of loyalty,
and their efforts to restore all the States
to their former condition as States in
the American Union, we will stand by
the positions taken by them, and use all
means consistent with a peaceful and
lawful course, to secure the ratification
of the amendments to the Constitution
of the United States, as proposed by the
Congress at its recent session, and regret
that the' Congress in its wisdom did not
provide by law for the greater security
of the loyal people in the States not yet
admitted to representation.
Resolved, That thepolitical power of
the Government of the United States
in the administration of public affairs
is, by its Constitution, confided to the
popular law making department of the
Government.
Resolved, That the political status bf
the States lately in rebellion to the U.
States Government, and the rights of
the people of the United States, are po
litical questions, and are therefore clear
ly within the control of Congress, to
the exclusion of the independent action
of any and every other department of
the Government.
Resolved, That there is no right, po
litical, legal, or constitutional, in any
State to secede or withdraw from the
Union ; that they may by wicked and
unauthorized revolution and force sever
the relations which they havesustained
to the Union, and when they do so and
assume the attitude of public enemies
at war with the United States, they sub
ject themselves to all the rules and prin
ciples of international law, and the
laws of "war applicable to all belliger
ents, according to - modern usage.
Resolved, That we are unalterably in
favor of the Union of the States, and
earnestly desire the legal and speedy re
storation of all the States to their proper
places in the Union, and the establish
ment in each of them of influences of
patriotism and justice, by which the
whole nation shall be combined to carry
forward triumphantly the principles of
freedom and progress, until all men of
all races shall, everywhere beneath the
flag of our country, have accorded to
them freely all that their virtues, intel
ligence, industry, patriotism and energy
may entitle them to attain.
Resolved, That the organizations in
the unrepresented States, assuming to
be State governments, not having been
legally established, are not legitimate
governments until recognized by Con
gress.
Resolved, That the welcome we have
received from the loyal citizens of Phil
adelphia, under the roof of the time
honored hall in which the Declaration
of Independence was adopted, inspires
us with an animating hope that the
principles of just and equal government,
which were made the foundation of the
Republic at its origin, shall become the
corner stone of the reconstruction.
Resolved, That we cherish with ten
der hearts the memory of the virtues,
patriotism, sublime faith, upright chris
tian life, and generous nature of the
martyr President, Abraham Lincoln.
Resolved, That we are in favor of uni
versal liberty the world over, and feel
the deepest sympathy with the oppress
ed people of all countries in their strug
gles for freedom, and the inherent right
of all men to decide and control for
themselves the character of the govern
ment under which they live.
Resolved, That the lasting gratitude
of the nation is due to the men who
bore the brunt of the battle, and in cov
ering themselves with imperishable
glory, have saved to the world its hope
of free government, and relying upon
the invincible soloiers and sailors who
made the grand army and navy of the
Republic to be true to the principles for
which they fought, we pledge them that
we will stand by them in maintaining
the honor due the saviors of Ithe nation
and in securing the fruits of their vic
tories.
Resolved, That remembering with
profound gratitude and love the precepts
of Washington, that we should accus
tom ourselves to consider the Union as
"the primary object of patriotic desire,"
which has heretofore sustained us with
great power in our love for the Union,
when so many of our neighbors in the
South were waging war for its destruc
tion, our deep and abiding love for the.
memory of the Father of his Country,
for the iJnion, is more deeply eugraven
upon our hearts than ever.
The resolutions were unanimously
opted.

Remember the Mass Meeting at Ti- .
oga to-morrow, Thursday. Turn out in
force.
Mr. J. R. BARKER, not Mr. Joseph
Barker, has formed a copartnership
with Mr. C. L. Wilcox.
By no means neglect to read the dec
laration of principles put forth by the
Convention of Sodthern loyalists at their
Convention in Philadelphia on the' 3d
6f September. It is a. grand bill of in
dictment against Andrew Johnson.
We are.obliged to a valued correspon
dent for the suggestion that the Presi
dent and'his patty are nowhere men
tioned as visiting the tomb of ABRA
HAM LINCOLN. If that duty was neg
lected, the neglect was very significant.
Possibly Mr. Johnson is afraid of ghosts.
The Waterloo to Copper-Johnsonism
in Maine is more utter than our friends
at first Supposed. Four out of five of
the Copperhead candidates for Congress
were renegade Republicans of the John
son stripe. Yet every. Copper-Johnson
man was defeated by a majority of from
4,000 to 6,000.
WHAT MB. BLAIR SAID, AND WHAT
HE DID NOT SAY
Mr. MONTGOMERY GLAIR, rated a
third-rate man among public men in
Washington, is, in himself, of little ac
count. But being put forward as the
twenty-inch gun of Copperheadism, it
becomes a duty to forget his insignifi
cance and examine his utterances.
What Mr. Blair said in his speech
here was not so remarkable as what he
omitted to say.
He said that the politicians of Wash
ington,..meaning the Senators and Rep
resentatives of the Republican faith,
were opposed to the renomination of
ABRAITAii LINCOLN in 1864; and that
to him Mr. Lincoln's nomination was
due and owing.
We hav no hesitation in saying that
as regards the attitude of Congressmen
toward Mr. Lincoln in 1864, we know
much more than Mr. Blair. We are
able to say, without fear of successful
contradiction, that a very large majority
of Republicans in Congress were in -fa
vor of Lincoln's renomination ; and
those who were opposed were so opposed
because of the alleged susceptibility of
Mr. Lincoln to the Blair influence.
Mr. Blair did not say what we now
affirm, and what he cannot deny :- That
Mr. Lincoln's renomination was secured
only by his pledge to put Montgomery
Blair out of th 6 Cabinet. This is a
matter of notoriety. Mr. Blair, and the
Blair family, were known to be unsafe
and unreliable.- For this reason Mont
gomery was permitted to resign.
Mr. Blair said that Ben Wade and
Winter Davis issued a manifesto against
Lincoln in 1884. He alleged that this
manifesto embodied the sentiments of
Republican Congressmen.
But Mr. Blair did not say what he
knew to be true, that this manifesto was
in no sense the utterance of the party ;
and that it was repudiated by the party,
as violent and unwarrantable.
Mr. Blair said that Andrew Johnson
applied for arms to arm the Union men
of Tennessee in 1861, alleging that they
were capable of taking care of them
selves if armed and supported by the
Government. That the Government
refused this appliCation, and left the
Union men of that State to the mercy
of the rebels.
But Mr. Blair did trot say, what he
knew to be tlrue, that the Government
refused to send arms into Tennessee in
advance of our armies, for the simple
reason that it wouldhave been equiva
lent to donating so much to the rebels.
It was known that the Union men there
could not protect themselves, even if
armed. It was too late.
Mr. Blair said that Greece, and Rome,
and various other nations, did not dis
franchise their rebellious subjects when
armed.
Mr. Blair did not say, what he kneW
to be true, that Manlius, the rebel, was
flung from the rock; that the Skillful
rebels, led by E 1111139, were slaughtered
and crucified' to the number of 70,000.
That Caius Gracchus and Fulvius Fla
ceus, rebels, were beheaded, and their
followers strangled and flung into the
Tiber. - That the revolt of the Marsi
was punished by the death of the prin
cipals and the enslavement of the peo
ple. That the son of Lepidus, the trai
tor, was executed for the treason of his
father, and Marcus Brutus was put to
death by Pompey. That the accompli
ces of Catilir' te were executed—and so
on through the chapter. Mr. Blair's
classics take hue from his native dull
ness; and the display of ignorance was
only justifiable on the ground that he
came here to mislead, and flung truth
far from him when he set out.
Mr. Blair said that his brother, Frank,
Was the first soldier enrolled in the ser
vice of the United States. He did not
say, what is true, that the first enroll
ment of men was in Washington, in
March, 1861, in organizations known as
the `,` Frontier Guard" and " Clay's
Battalion," which picketed the Govern
ment property, stood guard in the pub
lic buildings, and slept on their arms.
Mr. Blair said that Gov. Hamilton, of
Texas, was dead drunk in Washington
fof four years. He did not say, what he
knew to be tree, that Andrew Johnson
selected "Jack Hamilton" and com
missioned him Provisional Governor of
Texas. If that is creditable to Andrew
Johnson, make the most of it. How
ever, we guess Mr. Blair lied.
Mr. Blair said that he was not the
best specimen of the Blair family ; that
his brother Frank, ten years younger,
was much more of a man than he. He
did not inform his hearers of what he
knew to be true, that Frank Blair is one
of the most notorious drunkards, in
America, and that he was for a period
of time without a command because of
his unfitness on that account.
Mr. Blair said he felt impending civil
war in the atmosphere. That unless
Mr. Johnson's policy was adopted, there
would . be war which would ravage the
North. But Mr. Blair did not see what
we saw—the shadow of a halter depend
ing from his own neck, in whose loving
noose the shadows of thousands of other
traitor necks were embraced. He heard,
however, the reply of twenty stalwart
men : "Let it come ! We are ready
for it!" And from that moment Mr.
Blair looked very much like a fellow we
once saw bushed in a hay-field.
And the rest of the sayings of this
member of the Blair family, are they
not written in the Copperhead cate
chism ?
At Elyria, (MO Mr. Seward, show
man, •asked the crowd whether they
would have Andrew Johnson as Presi
dent or King. This must be attributed
to a lapsus linguae, not infrequent with
men who are soaked with whisky; for
Mr. Seward is a sot.
The American people want no Kings,
and no usurpers, Mr. Seward. The
American people will have no Kings or
usurpers, Mr. Seward.
By the underground mail from Wil
liamsport, we learn that Mr. Clymer
and Senator Wallace, with other mag
nates of the Copperhead party, met in
that region a few days ago, and decided
not to put Mr, Theodore Wright off the
Congressional track. Mr. Wright a
grees to expend money enough to insure
his election over Mr. Wilson ; but how
much that may be we cannotsay. It is
safe to say, that Mr. Wright, through
his agents, will expend from $3,000 to
$5,000 in Tioga county. This will be
done in various ways. As, for instance,
with groggy-kneed Republicans, if
such there be, the direct purchase will
be made, when possible. Then there
will be money set apart for betting pur
poses; and greenhorns will* invited
or provoked to bet on the result of the
election. These bets will be offered with
such a positive certainty of gain on the
part of the taker, as to tempt many.—
But remember this : Every man who
bets may be challenged at the'polls, and
thus inevitably lose his vote.
Can the Copperheads afford this?—
Certainly. What difference does it
make to them whether they pay $5,
$lO, or $l5 for a vote, or lose either of
those sums, in keeping a Republican
vote out of the ballot-box? You will at
once see that either way is the same as
the other, in the result, to that pure pa
triot, Theodore Wright.
Now we have this to say about bet
ting on the result of the election this
fall: If any man offer to bet, or shall
bet, upon the result of the coming elec
tion, and the fact shall be made known
to us, we will prosecute him to convic
tion and the infliction of the penalty
prescribed by the statute, which is a
fine of three times the amount offered
to be bet, or which shall be bet.
Let it be understood. We promise
nothing that shall not be performed,
and performed with an eye single to the
vindication of the law. And every
Constable who shall know of any such
offer to bet, or of any bet made, is bound
by law to enter complaint. So also of
the Sheriff, Justices of the Peace, and
Judges. That is all.
TICKETS
We desire to call attention to the new
mode of voting this fall. It is much
simpler, and with a word of comment
none can err.
There are to be but three ballots.—
One, labeled "STATE," and contain
ing these words: " Governor—John W.
Geary." When this ballot is folded, the
word " State" will appear on the out
side.
Another, labeled " JUDICIARY,"
and containing these words: "Associ
ate Judges=--Chas. F. Veil, E. T. Bent
ley." When folded, the word "Judi
ciary" will appear on the outside.
Another, labeled " COUNTY," and
containing these words:
" Congress--Stephen F. Wilson.
" Assembly—William T. Humphrey,
" John S. Mann.
" Prothonotary, &c.—John F. Don
" aldson.
" Register, dte.—DaTius L. Deane.
"Commissioner—Peter V. Van Ness.
" Auditor—lsrael Stone."
When folded, the word "County"
will appear on the outside.
Our friends will do well to exercise
great care on the day of election in re
gard to the tickets. One-third of the
whole number of tickets sent to each
district should be held in reserve until
needed. Look sharp for spurious tick
ets, for our opponents are desperate men,
and will possibly resort to desperate
means.
Another stroke of the axe. Another
head in the basket. _jorms, of the Jer
sey Shore Vedette, has been removed
from the Post (Mice at that place, and a
Copperhead appointed in his stead.—
Mark well : There was not a Republi
can on sale in Jersey Shore. Happy
village ! Happy Jones! We congratu
late you, brother, on your emancipa
tion.
Victory: Victory 41:
MAINE, REPUBLICAN, BY FROM
TWENTY-FIVE TO -THIRTY
TROUSAND!
A Republican Governor and Sehate - ,
an almost unanimously Republican
House, a full Republican Congressional
delegation, and the majority from 5,000
to 10,000 larger than last year!
REPUBLICANS, we give you joy ! Our
brothers of Maine achieved an unprece
dented victory. ou Monday the 10th.—
They elected an unanimous Senate,
nine-tenths of the Hou r se, all the Con
gressmen, Governor, and all the county
officers in the State. This, too, in the
face of the distribution of the large pa
tronage of the Government for Copper
head purposes. The increase of major
ity for Congress being 10,000 over 1864!
When A. Johnson finishes his elec
tioneering tour and once more sits down
at home In the White House, we trust
be will put on his spectacles and read
the handwriting on the wall. It is
plain, oh Andrew J. ; read and reflect.
The people cannot be bought with - post
offices, and custom-house appointments.
Nor.will they permit rebels to take front
seats in the work of restoring the Un
ion. •
Now, men of Tioga, it is for you to do
your duty, and Pennsylvania shall re
spond to Maine like the reportof one of
those twenty-inch guns born at the
Pittsburg Foundry. Forward, the col
umn. Let us charge the enemy while
the Bread-and-Butter brigade falls in
for rations.
The Copperhead papers in this State
are making much ado over a lie of their
own invention. They declare that Con
gress passed. a law giving negro soldiers
$3OO bounty, while white soldier* re
ceive only $lOO and $5O.
There is not a word of truth in this
story. The bill as passed gives the same
bounty to all soldiers, without distinc
tion of color, whose terms of service are
equal. And for this bill, and for its ri
der—the bill increasing the salaries of
Congressmen—a majority of the Cop
perhead members voted. Now will the
Clinton Democrat tell the truth, or stand
posted as an inveterate and unconscion
able liar?-
REPUBLICANS, if any man thinks the
cause of Truth and Justice, and perma
nent peace, can move along Just as well
without hiin as with him, he deludes
himself, and will one day awake to re
gret his delusion with unavailing moans.
The enemies of civil liberty are never
idle. They work by day and by night,
and leave no stone unturned by which
they may gain their ends. Every man
must take his stand and stand by it. If
he would give the reins of power into
the bands of rebels and their sympathi
zers, then he should vote for Hiester
Clymer, Theodore Wright, and the
whole rebel ticket. But if he would
keep the reins of power in the hands of
the'pkrty which stood by the country
in its peril, then he will vote for Gen.
John W. Geary, Stephen F. Wilson,
and the entire Union ticket. There is
no half-way place whereon to rest the
foot. Every man must stand with Con
gress, or with a perfidious President.
HENRY WARD BEECHER'S position
must be uncomfortable. He is on the
fence, and the top rail is very sharp.—
Mr. Greeley gave him a pungent dress
ing the other day for endorsing the
Johnson-Soldiers' Convention at Cleve
land. Plymouth Church gave him an
other dressing, which brought Mr. Bee
cher upon his knees. He now says that
he Is not in favor of Mr. Johnson's pol
icy of admitting the late revolted States
in a lump, but would do it in reasonable
time. Just so, Mr. B. That is the Con
gressional plan of reconstruction.
The Copperheads are wild with. de
light at the defection of Mr. - Beecher.—
We are not alarmed. Mr. Beecher, as
the apostle of political and national pro
greas, of universal freedom and the
rights of man, was a power in the land.
But Henry Ward Beecher, as the advo
cate of retrogression and Johnsonian
madness, is a nobody. He could move
the people to do right, but he cannot
move them to violate their consciences.
As Lucifer lost his influence with an
gels when he rebelled against Heaven,
so Mr. Beecher is powerless to draw
good men after him into the 'abyss of
Johnsonian anarchy and confusion.
When will you learn, atheistic Demo:
cracy, that enlightened conscience nev
er pins its faith on the pulpit cushion,
or the sleeve of the preacher
The folliwing is an extract from Pres
ident Johnson's speech at Niagara Falls:
" We have been denounced as traitors, as hav
ing deserted party. Well, lam free to say that
ant for my country, and that party stay go to the
devil, or any where else. I go for my country
and my whole country; sand the day is coming
when the solitary and the people of the United
States should stand above party ana the shackles
of party, and should stand around the altar of our
country—the whole country—and send party—
wherever it may—"
Well, sir, what about the Johnson
"party?" Not desiring to keep your
company, the Republican party will not
go to the devil.
Republicans propose to submit all
matters pertaining to policy, to the ar
bitrament of the ballot-box. If they
are fairly beaten there, they propose to
acquiesce, as they ever have done. On
the other hand, Copperhead orators pro
pose to vote first, and if whipped, to re
sort to arms against the majority. Ra
ther, they threaten war unless all good
men fall down and cry " Great is An
drew Johnson, and his policy shall pre
vail I"
The shout from Vermont last week,
and the thunder from Maine this week,
tell the story. The Johnsonites are to
be cut up, root and branch ; and of the
sham foundationi-of "my policy," not
one stone is to be left upon another.
We again exhort to increased vigi
lance and activity on the part of the
friends of Geary and Wilson. The is
sue is sharp and well-defined—" Shall
loyal men reconstruct the Government ;
or shall loyal men take back seats and
give up the front seats to rebels !"
