sLiGterLit ,cumaaliv,
Hon. Chas. Sumner; in a recent :ad
dress delivered in Boston, thus states
the substance of a conversation between
himself and Andrew Johnson, justafter
the latter became President;
I was in Washington during the
first month of the new administration
destined to Ell sllch an unhappy place
in history. During this period I saw
the President frequently, sometimes at
the privatehouse. he then occupied, and
sometimes at his office in the Treasury.
On those gemstone, the constant topic
was ''recoustruction," which was coa
t:lnt:red it every variety of aspect. More
than one I ventured to press upon him
the duty and the renown of carrying
out the principles of the Declaration of
Independence, and of founding the new
governments in the rebel States on the
consent of the governed, without any
distinction of color. To this earnest
appeal.. he replied on one occasion, as I
t with him alone, in words which I
Can never forget: "Onthis question, lir.
Sunnier, there is .no difference between
1 .2. You and /are alike." Need I say
that I was touched to the heart by this
annunciation, Winch seemed to promise
a victory without a battle. Accustomed
to controversy, I saw clearly that if the
President declared himself in favor of
the Equal Rights of all, the good cause
must prevail without controversy. Af
ter expressing to him my joy and grati
tude, I remarked. still further, that it
was imports.nt that there should be no
division in the great Union party—that
there should be no line run through it,
on one side of which would be gentle
men calling themselves 'the President's
friends," but that we should be kept all
together as one seamless garment. To
this he promptly replied " I mean to
keep you all together." Nothing could
be better , j We were to be kept all to
gether on the principle of Equal Rights.
As I walked away from the President
that evening, the battle of my life
seemed to be ended, while the Republic
rose before me, refulgent in the blaze of
assured fredom ; an example to the na
,tions."
PREFERRED HER SECOND LOVE.—Ja
cob Biepfel, twenty, years ago, married
Miss Kate Schmidt, in Germany. Two
or three years later, Jacob came to
America and settled in Auglaize county:
Ohio. -He neglected to inform his wife
of his whereabouts, and she, believing
him dead, married again. Twelve
years ago she came across the seas with
her second husband, and located in the
same county within ten miles of her
former lord.. Strangely enough, though
living so near, they. had never met until
last Thursday, when Jacob, visiting the
county fair at Wapakonetta, was rather
surprised to meet his deserted frau
"swinging around the circle mit anoder
man," and•half a dozen children. He
made himself known, apd the two sat
down and had a long talk about old
times in Germany. she advised him
that under the circumstances, he had
better retire for another sixteen years,
as her second husband suited her best,
and she intended to stick to him.
A SINGULAR CASE.—A novel case
was decided at Jackson, Michigan, re
cently, by Commissioner Walcott, in
regard to the custody of the issue of a
marriage declared void for illegality.
The parties were united in marriage
some eight years ago, the husband sup
posing that the woman was unmarried,
while she had a husband then living.
This fact coining to light, the marriage
was declared void. The wife then
brought a habeas corpus against the
husband for their three children. But
the Commissioner decided against her
claim under all the circumstances and
contrary to the general legal proposition
that the custody of illegitimate children
belongs to the mother. She now brings
an4ucion for the recovery of wages for
tliel whole period of their supposed mar
riage.
DteltotrDs IN BRAztL.—We have
been gratified by a visit from H. M.
Lane, Esq., the agent for Ayer's Pills,
Sarsaparilla and Cherry Pectoral, in
South America, who has just visited the
mines with his meclicin es. and described
to us the process of taging gems from
the earth. A driver places his gang of
slaves in a mud hole, where the gems
are found, and pans out of the earth in
the water, like gold washers. The ne
groes are naked, to prevent their secre
ting the diamonds in their clothes.
They are required to work facing their
overseer, and forbidden to raise a hand
to the face. lest they should swallow
the jewels when found. Yet they do
carry them away, by becoming so ex
pert that they can snap them with their
fingers from the pan to their mouth,
without detection, Ayers medicines
are the talismans for their diseases, and
it was not difficult to exchange, with
the negroes, Ayer's Pills in about even
weight, for the rough stones in which
the brilliants are holden.—Leader.
MORTALITY IX OYE FAMILY.—The
Davenport (Iowa) Democrat reports the
recent death or Mrs. Parks on New Or
leans, on board the steamer Davenport
on her downward trip. Her remains
were taken South in charge of her
nephew, J. 0. Nixon, Esq., of the New
Orleans Crescent, and on his arrival he
learned thau an uncle, aunt and two
cousins, who were on their way home
to New York, were among the unfortu
nate passengers who went down with
the ill-fated steamer Evening Star,
while, also, that another cousin had just
died of congestion on the brain—making
six deaths of near relatives within the
space of ten days.
THE AMENDMENT SOUTH.—Governor
Orr, of South Carolina, has authorized
the statement that he is utterly bpposed
to' the Constitutional Amendment; i4ov
ernor Humphreys, of Mississippi, has
taken the same ground : the North
Carolina elections have pronounced
against it, and the Texas Legislature,
by an overwhelming vote, has refused
to adopt it. These are indications un
favorable to the South, but do not prove
that the rebel States will not change
their attitude after the November elec
tions. General Grant, in supporting
the Amendment, has given the South
advice which it will do well to weigh.
The telegraph announces the death of
Mr. William Wright, United States
Senator from New Jersey. His health
has been feeble for many months. He
was born in Rockland county, New
York, but removed to NewliJersey as
early as 1794. From 1843 to 1847 he was
Re in the House of Re resentatives. In
t
1853 be was chosen the Senate, and
was re-elected in 186 for the term end
ing in 1869. Ho possed very fair abil
ities, and acted steadily with the demo
cratic party.
His successor will undoubtedly be a
republican.
A “No-AccouxT NIGGER."- Jimmy
wayson, known as the old root peddler
of Harmar, Ohio. has been expelled from
the African M. E. Church, at that place,
for voting the Democratic ticket. Jim
my tried to explain that it was a rale
take, but his sable brethren "didn't
want none o'dem no-account niggers
round dat church, -no how."

ANNOUNCEDIEPT
It is the present purpose of the Pro
prietors of MITE AGITATOR to issue the
XIVTE Volume, beginning January - 2,
1867, enlarged to thirty-two columns.—
This will require a sheet 26X40 inches.
The size at present is 24X36 inches.
We are moved to incur this consider
able Outlay by reason of the crowded
condition of our columns. We can
not but recognize the rapid-growth of
the county and increase our borders in
due' proportion. The enlargement of
last January was an experiment. It
succeeded beyond sanguine expectation.
The people responded generously, as
they have again and again, to our effort
to print a paper entirely devoted to the
advancement of the material interests
of Tioga county, and to the enfranchise
meat of .IVIA:.z everywhere. Thanks.
The terms of the enlarged paper will
remain as at present—s 2 per year, cash.
When the retiel organs allude to Mr.
Clymer as deserving thanks for his her
culean labors during the campaign, do
they fail to discover the remarkable
likeness-he bears to the . wagoner rather
than to Hercules?
TO LEARN, OR NOT TO LEARN
SOME lessons are readily learned, and
strictly heeded ; and some, though di
rect, are learned over and over again,
only to be forgotten.
Under the head of lessons generally
heeded we place the following:
Fire will burn.
Hot iron will burn.
Edged tools will cut.
•
Powder will explode.
It is dangerous to leap off a precipice
Deep wateris death to poor swimmers
Vicious dogs will bite.
Eggs will break.
Dirt will soil clothes.
Thieves will steal.
Thin ice will not bear great weight.
Unripe fruit is unwholesome.
Bad men make bad citizens.
Such are a few orthe many simple,
universally acknowledged truths which
have come out of
l experience.
As for the no less apparent facts that
are as if they were not, and never hed
been, we have a word to say :
Heretofore the American people have
very sparingly carried their Common
Sense into their politics. If they have
been badly governed sometimes they
are to blame for it. If they have- been
cheated and betrayed they are to blame
for that.
No business man delivers his safe key
and his check-book into the custody of
a known thief and forger.
But the American people sometimes
select their servants from among men
who, morally, type a mackerel in the
last stages of decay. Such servants
plunder the public till, and the people
cry out lustily that they have been be
trayed:
No good citizen employe *swaggering
rowdy to teach his children how to con
duct themselves properly in good soci
ety.
But the American people often put
men in high places whose example, if
copied, would denim the youth of the
nation.
What could be said for the common
sense of a man who should fling garb
age into the spring from which he pro
cured water for family use?
What could be said for the sagacity of
a community which should suffer row
dies and thieves to prescribe rules to
promote social order?
What could be said for the piety of
a clergyman who should drink, swear
and gamble ?
What could be said for the integrity
of a magistrate who habitually com
pounded felony, and so enriched him
self?
Whae right have the American peo
'pie to complain of the shortcomings of
their servants, while, in many instan
ces, they knowingly and wilfully select
them from the ranks of the vicious?
These are proper questions to be put;
and the answers are so ready upon ev
ery tongue that we need not waste time
and space to record them here. •
True, men may be deceived in the se
lection of agents. But they cannot al
ways plead human frailty and excep
tional turpitude in justification of pub
lic and private acts.
Men must be taught by these things,
else life is a farce and a mockery. Per
haps the people are excusable for piac
ing Andrew Johnson in dangerous
proximity to to the Chief Magistrate's
Chair. We all believed him. true-and
faithful. His public pledges and
s his
public acts gave us reason for the belief.
However, we all knew that the dev
ilish spirit of rebellion and treason had
its root in the devilish spirit of hu
man oppression. We knew that Slave
ry demoralized the entire population of
the South ; and if we will learn any
thing of history, we may know that it
will require a generation to pass away
before the miseducation of Slavery can
be corrected.
It will not do to trust any man so mis
educated with power. These slave
breeders misgoverned us for sixty years
in the spirit of slavery. We must rule
them as many years as shall suffice to
exorcise the malign spirit of slavery,
the carcase of which is dead and buried.
Yesterday week the people of a cer
tain Congressional district in "Newyork
elected John Morrissey, the professional
prize-fighter and gambler, to represent
them in Congress.
This man Morrissey is an habitual
lawbreaker; he is selected to represent
a district in Congress. He is to make
laws for the American peoplp!
What is that to say ?—that the dis
trict electing him is inhabited by law
breakers? Is not that the rational con
clusion ?
Whaedo you think of it? Who vo
ted for John Morrissey, the gambler?
Did good citizens assist to swell his ma
jority? .
Republicans e did not vote for him, ev
idently. They had a candidate of their
own ; a candidate who had never won
a brutal prize-tight, or set up as a pro
fessional gambler. Hence his signal
defeat.
No reputable man. of any party, re*
gards the election of_ Morrissey as other
than most disgraceful. Why was he
nominated? Because he controls the
scum of Nev York ;) and the Hoffrnans
and Seymours, having use for the scum,
desired to propitiate it. Surely there
must be something wrong when such a
man as Morrissey controls a Congress
ional district?
Possibly the people may regard these
things worthy of serious thought. We
hope they may.
The Copperhead papers below the
mountains in this district are asking if
there was colonization at the late elec
tion. If anybody can answer thatques
tion by the book it should be the Cop
perhead leaders.
It appears that the Republican, vote
was increased about one-third over that
of 1864, while the " Democratic" vote
was increased but one-fifth.
Well, why go all about Robin Hood's
barn to get at the reason ? should a dy
ing man compare his failing pulse with
that of a man in robust health he would
concinde that the healthy man had a
galloping fever. Your party is dying,
gents, and cannot expect to grow over
half as fast as a live party.
Among the array of " unkindest cuts
of all" is that made at Mr. Philander
T. Wright, late a candidate for Congress,
by the . Clinton Demoerat. Its leader
of two weeks ago is entitled " Running
after Office," in which it is declared
thit " one radical evil in our party is
the system of office-hunting."
Well, we agree to that. But were
the office hunters of that party 'to be
discharged, as all radical evils should
be, the party would have no leaders at
all.
Were that party to be purified of its
office-hunters there would not be enough
left to bury a remaining member were
he to die.
The editors of the Center, Clinton,
and Lycoming • Coppery papers should
comp up to Tioga and attend one of our
numerous and excellent district schools
for one term. • They have dwelt in mo
ral darkness until they have forgotten
the consequent of light. There, the
people look upon a school-teacher and
a horse thief as one in vocation. We
correct that false teaching in this lati
tude.
The aforesaid editors are shocked be
eause their party carried but one dist
rict in this county. Why, gentlemen,
as soon as we can get a few ministers
and school-teachers into that benighted
corner, with a good temperance organi
zation to help, we expect to carry Fall
Brook for correct principles.
The trial of the Fenian prisoners in
Canada has resulted in the conviction
of Col. Lynch, a Fenian leader. He is
sentenced to be hung on the 13th of De
cember proximo. This may be said to
seal the fate of some half dozen more.
It is said that the people of Canada
will oppose any attempt to obtain
Lynch's reprieve.. However this may
be, Great'Britain may _learn that the
blood of the martyrs is the seed of the
Church: In this light, the execution
of the culprits-may not Work any seri
ous damage to Fenianism.
We beg a correspondent to remember
that all the fools are not ddid yet. tio,
when a man charges unfairness upon.
Republican election boards, and says
that Republicans were left to vote un
challenged, he advertises as a fool of
generous dimensions. The right of
challenge for cause is established by
law. Either party may challenge; and
if Republicans, or their opponents, vo
ted unchallenged, and illegally, then
both parties are in fault.
BRILLIBT VICTORIES ! !
"MY POLICY" NOWHERE.
The Bth of November was it day of
Republican victories. New York elects
Fenton Governor by 15,000 majority.
The Congressional delegation stands
20 Radloal to 11 Johnson men, as at
present. New Jersey gives 5,000 ma
jority for the Radical ticket, electing
three out of five of the Congressmen,
and a strong Radical Legislature. This
secures two Radical U. S. Senators from
New Jersey.
Michigan gives us 25,000, and a solid
Radical Congressional delegation.—
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Mis
souri, Kansas, Nevada—all go over
whelmingly Radical. So that the 40th
Congress will stand 140 Radical to 44
Johnsonites. The Senate, which stands
at present 88 Radical to 13 Johnson,
will stand 41 Radical to 10 Johnson.
This is glory enough for one day.
The President appealed to the people,
and the people have spoken in tones
which cannot be mistaken. If Mr.
Johnson meant to abide by the decision
of the people, his policy will now be
abandoned, and Congress will exercise
its legitimate function of restoring the
Union.
FANCY DRESS BALL.—There will be
a fancy dress party in the new malt house of
Jones A Taylor, Bios/burg, this evening. We
hope it may be a pleasant affair, and that some
body will send us a report. We are unable to
