UNITED= 'S!riI:.TES„S.PNAT(3I2..
From a long and abli: article, on thiS'
subject in ;the Bradford Reporter we
extract the ,following` just tribute: to
Gen. Cameron :
"General CAMERON'S record during
the war has been such as to gain him
the confidence and warmest gratitude
of the whole country. Occupying the
War Department when treason culmi
nated in open rebellion, he alone, of
those at the head of our National af
fairs, seemed to comprehend the magni
tude of the contest in which we were
engaged. His long experience in pub
lic affairs„ his intimate acquaintance
with JEFF. Davis, and the leaders of
the Rebellion, his shrewd perception of
their pnrposes, of their resources, and
their determination to "rule or ruin"
impressed him with a conception of the
danger which environed the Nation,
and the terrible and deadly struggle
she should prepare to undergo. The
fact that his views were so much broad
er and in advance of his colleagues, and
his active preparations to make ready
for the contest, caused his retirement
from the Cabinet in 1862.
"Every day since Gen. CAMERON
sailed for Russia, has been a vindica
tion of his sagacity, and a proof of his
high integrity in the management of
the affairs of the War Department, du
ring the dark and gloomy hours, suc
ceeding the attack upon lort Sumpter.
We shall enter into no attempt at his
vindication. President LINCOLN, with
thatjustice and sense of fair-dealing
which characterized that good and
great man, put his enemies to the blush,
in that memorable Message of the 27th
of May, 1862, relating to the resolution
of censure passed by the House of Rep
resentatives, by frankly and boldly
accepting the responsibiliy of all the
matters for which Gen. C. had
has
censured. Since that time he has pa
tiently waited for the inexorable logic
of . events, to show how wisely and up
rightly he acted. And he could well
afford to wait; for.never has a man
come out from under reproach, so com
pletely justified. The Nation now,
looks to his efforts in the War Depart
ment as not only being wise and up
right, but can see that had his advice
and efforts been properly appreciated
and seconded, the Rebellion would have
been earlier crushed. ,
"Familiar With southern men, and
cognizant of their desires and inten
tions,fromhis shrewd estimate of the
character of the Southern leaders, Gen.
CAMERON early recognized the pur
poses for which the Rebellion was in
augurated, and saw that the struggle
would not be over, until the cause was
exterminated. .An early and consistent
Free-soiler, he had marked the usurpa
tions-of the Slave oligarchy, until their
arrogance had ended in fare treason that
strucik a deadly blow at our free insti
tutions. His sagacious mind early rec
ognized the fact that their property in
man *as the weakness or strength of
the Rebellion, as it was treated by the
Loyal nation. He Was the earliest ad
vocate, amongst public men, of the pol
icy-and justice of arming the blacks.
His report, asSecretary of War, in De
cember, 1861, 14 favor of that measure,
stands a prouder monumentto his sense
of justice, to his patriotism, his far
sighted sagacity, and his boldness t than
could have been erected by other h an ds.-
The Nation owes him a debt of 'grati
tude for the Report, which can :neVer
be adequately discharged.' For that
bold act of justice and statesmanship, he
was obliged to retire from President
Ltaccotx's cabinet, borne dam by; the
outcry, from the timid, time-serving
Conservatives of the country, leaving
behind him such men es SWARD,
WELLS and Ewan, whose names have
since become offensive to the people.
"Tiat state of Pennsylvania ows it as
a simple act of justice to StaloN C.,ut-
ERON, that he shOuld be honored by
sope signal proof of the confidence and
gratitude of her people. He has earned
it, by arduous and wisely-directed ef
forts to put down the Rebellion. He
deserves it, from his ample experience
anpublic affairs, from his familiarity
with the needs of the Nation, and
from his devotedness to the interests of
the" Commonwealth."
tiIiELDON'S COIIPOSITION FOR FRUIT
TREES.-A correspondent at Troy, Pa.,
asks us relative to P. B. Sheldon's
composition for the destruction of borers
and other insects on fruit trees. On
inquiry we learn from reliable parties
in Steuben county, thatthecomposition
has been tested in that section and is
approved. Though at first inclined to
look upon it as a nostrum, the testimony
before us—mainly elicted by our inqui
ries--is such that (with the addition of
a knowledge of the ingredients of the
composition') we are inclined to regard
the preparation of Mr. Sheldon as rai
l/able. The composition, which has
been patented, in advertised in this
paper.—Hoore's _Rural Tew-Yorker.
IT is given out from Washington that
the President declares his determination
to make no more removals, as the ap
pointing of "Democrats" does not pay.
Very probably the President bas said
so, but his character for veracity does
not warrant one in attaching iliuch im
portance to it.

Three days before the election Gen.
Butler attempted to address the citi
zens of New York near the City Hall
steps. A mob collected to prevent his
speaking but he found occasion to say
some remarkable cutting things—cut
•ting, because true. He told the, mob
that in 1863 they were engaged h kill-,
ing defenceless negroes in thoSe.atreetii;
that the*y were cowards, whose_ superi
ors were tote found in Baltimore and
New Orleans. His closing shot was
capital_ Said he, "I here declare, as
the voice of the nation, that you are not
fit for the elective franchise, and in no
better way than this could you demon
strate the fact." We s,ubscribe to that.
MR. GREELEY ON THE SITUATION
HORACE GREELEY has written a let
ter on " the Bases of Reconstruction,"
which letter appeared in the Tribune of
the 27th of November.
For Mr. Greeley's straitforward hon
esty of purpose, and for his devotion to
- what he conceives to he true and right,
we have a great admiration. For his
tact we have a smile, and for his vaga
ries charity. His present vagary is
-Universal amnesty based upon Univer
sal Suf f rage."
We last week spoke directly to the
question stated. We - cannot ; at pres
ent, conceive of any consideration
which can influence us_ to agree to
Universal Amnesty and universal Suf
fAge.
In the first place:we are in no hurry
for the restoration of the South to equali
ty in .the Union. Her public men
were thirty years trying to break out of
the Union and at last succeeded.—
Should they be five, ten, fifteen, or even
twenty years, in getting back to place
and power,:---if so many years. shall be
required to bring them to their senses
we shall never lose any sleep over that.
At the same time, in common with - all
friends of the country we hope that less
than five years may suffice to prepare
the South for association with =sine,
right minded men:
Mr. Greeley says he is " for Univer
sal Amnesty—so far as fear of punish
ment or confiscation is concerned,"
whether Impartial Suffrage shall be con
ceded or not. He says he did think it
desirable that Jefferson Davis should
be arraigned for treason ; but that des
ire has passed away. In fact, be now
thinks that the trial of Jeff. Davis
would result in more evil than good.
We confess that this is a new view of
the result of enforcing the penal code.
We had supposed that the law was the
dread of evil doers, and that the vindi
cation of law. by the arraignment and
trial, conviction, and punishment of
offenders, was salutary. We had sup
posed that no greater harm could be
fall a law than that it shohld be habitu
allydisregarded. But here is a man of
unquestionable integrity and moral ex , .
cellence, who regards the infraction of
the law as less, perilous to society than
its vindication.
We must ask those who may tread
Mr. Greeley's article to consider certain
facts, among which are these :
1. That the existenee of laws for the res
traint and punishment of evilrainded
persons presupposers a, community
composed of law-abiding people,
2. That a +ommunity of law-abiding
people will uphold courts in arraigning
crimnals and enforcing •penalties."
3. That in such a community the vin-'
dication of wholesome laws, as against
the malice of rogues -and villains, is
just as requisite to the continua . nee - of
moral health, as'cleauliness is
,requisite
to . the physical health of crowded cities.
4. That if there be any whose pass
ions will be rekindled by the enforce
ment of law made for the protection of
society, they will be found to be either
lawbreakers, or apologists for such.
5. That this class of people have no
likes or dislikes, touching law, which
the friends of law and order are bound
to respect.
We write this, not for Mr. Greeley,
but for those who will read his letter.
Mr. Greeley's vagaries are just as real to
him as the solid earth. They are not so
tangible to us, and we shall treat them
as vagaries, harmless enough as such,
but prolific of evil if taken as realities.
A great deal has been said about
mercy. We have as merciful impulses
as anybody. We would prefer that no
body should be fined, imprisoned, or
hung ; but how much more 'certainly
do we prefer that nobody should incur
the penalties named?
However, here is the world. It has
many rogues, and. they must be re
strained. There are laws to restrain
and punish, and if they fail to restrain
they must not fail to punish.
If Mr. Greeley's belief be founded , on
truth, then courts must consult the fra-
NZC
ternity, of thieves befor , e they arraign a
thief. They Must Sayatbe fraternity ;
Gentlemen, is it your pleasure to have
this brother of yours punished for his
theft? Or will you suffer your passions
to flame anew if We enforce the law
against ,stealing ? -
No. There ,can be no deference to
crime, or crimnals, without inviting
untold evils. Pure justice, and nothing
more, is the Intent of law. . ,If it fall
short of that it is defective ; '-and-if it
oversteps it, then the law becomes cru
dity.
Unless. we very much ..mistake the
temper of _the American peopele they
will never agree - to :Universal Amnes
ty. Treason is a crime and Must be
punished. Traitors are. worse than
thieves or highwaymen. They must
be punished.
If, as Mr. Greeley affirms, no jury
would convict Jeff'. Davis unlessrscao
dolously packed, we do not see why he
should never be arraigned: If no jury
will convict him, we, shall know, at
least, that treason is a vagary and crime
a matter of.opinion.
If these be the facts, the sooner the
people know the better.
11. 8. SENATOI3
The election of U. S. Senator in place
of Mr. COWAN is now becoming thor
oughly canvassed by the newspaper,
men. We print elsewhere an extract
from a very able article in the Bradford
Reporter, in which the 'argument for
Gen Cameron is very clearly presented.
We append a further extract _from the
same article touching Gov. Curtin.—
The eeporter says:
' We have lookedin vain, through Gm CURTIN'S
Messages to find ono word of support or encourag
meat for the radical views and measures which
have now -received the popular appreval„ We
defy his most ardent friends to Sod , one line, or
quote one utterance, up to the.tinie of bis.malting
his-York speech, which' indicated' his support of
radical measures.: If vre,doitim injustice by so
saying, it unintentional ; for .Vte put out of
view as incredible and unworthy of- belief, the
aspersion that he bad just previous to that speech,
mode a compact with Senator COWAN, to support
President JOHNSWB Policy, in consideration of
disposing of : the patronage of the generitl govern
ment wain the State of Pennsylvania. We
shall need some more evidence before we believe
that, notwithstanding his quasi endorsement of
President Jonitsoles measures, in his Message of
last Spring."
So far as we are concerned, no further
evidence of Gov. Curtin's unreliability
is needed.' There is not a live Copper
head paper that is not denouncing Cam
eron and insisting that Curtin is enti
tled to the place. The reason is quite
obvious to us—reluctantly as we may,
and do, acknowledge it---Copperhead
ism cannot manage Gen. Cameron and
it hopes to ,manage Gov. Curtin. No
greater calamity could befall the coun
try at this time than the election of a
doubtful•man to respect this Common
wealth in the U. S. lienate.
_The XXXIXth Congress commenced
its second session on Monday. We

BRADFORD ITEMS.—The .Reporter
says that Mr. John Kingsland, of Sheebequin, on
the 21st ultimo, assaulted his wife. knocked her
down and stamped upon her bead with his feet
until-she was insensible._ His mother-In•law, an
aged woman interfered aid rescued the body,
when he left the house and repaired to a neigh
bot's where his son was at work. After a few
words with his son Kingeland drew a revolver
and fired twice at him., but, without effect. The
would-be double murderer was arrested and
lodged in jail. Ths wife died the Monday fol
lowing,
According to the Athens Republican, Kings
land was drunk at the time., - When Sober he is
said to be a well-disposed man. Our question
Who is responsible for the murder of Mrs. Kings
land ?
H. P. Joann,- of- Nlcholsi was killed the same
day by the accidental diSobarge his gun.
According to the Troy' Gazette the Trojans were
nicely taken in and done for by one Prank Whit
comb, who pretends to hail from Andersonville..
We noticed the advent of this humbug in Corn
ing, in last week's paper, and Mr. Whitcomb
reached Wellsboro the same day. He arranges
for a lecture in the Methodist Church or Court
House, Thursday evening, but happening to take
up a - copy of The Agitato'r he snw himself there
in noted as an impostor and left for parts un
known before breakfast Thursday punning. The ,
fellow is a knave of the meanest sort we guess.
