    UNIT - E D --- sTATEs SENATOR:
To afford some idea of the strength of
Gen. Cameron among the people, we
continue our extracts from the Country
papers of the State.
Dr. John. of the Columbia' County
Pcpidoaeon, says:
••Gcu. Cameron has been tried and
proved true. He bas no ,doubtful fie c
ord. - He has had large experience in
public affairs. He has always been
mithfull to Pennsylvania and her inter
ests. He is emphatically the represen
tative man of our State. He never vio
lates his pledges. He can always be
relied on..
"Again, as a statesman he has few
s uperiors. He is sagacious, and has al
ways shown himself able to grapple
every issue. No man worked more ar.
duously to put down the pro-slavery
Rebellion. He at once saw 'lts magni
tude. He intuitively grasped the ag
gregate 'complexeduess y - of Treason's
coils, and to him is the nation indebted
for the very measures winch calked
victory to perch upon our banners and
made the Confederacy bite the dust.
"In these perilous timesiwe need just
such men as Gen. CAMERON in the:Sen
ate. "Characterized as he ever has been
by wisdom and sagacity, prudence and
an enlarged public spirit, he is just now
needed to take a part in the adjustment
of the vexed questions demanding final
settlement. The plans and principles
urged from the starte by-Secretary CAM.-
Eriox, convince the nation, and the
final adjustment must be based upon
those principles. Let him be sent to
the Senate to aid in having the work
clone well and wisely." - •
The Athens Eilniblican says:
"Gen. Cameron is emphatically a pro
gressive Statesulan—a num who has
always been first and Mremost to take
position in the front milli of progress,
and withintn in the United States Sen
ate, the Union party will be sure of a
true-representative and au able advo
cate."
The Pittsburg Commercial contains
the tolkAving frank avowal; in an arti
cle referring to :Simon Camorpu as a
candidate for U. S. Senator;
..•Penusylvania has no one more loyal
to her interests:, In him she cab con
fide without a shadow of fear of betray
al. No one is more loyal to the Uepub
lican party. - He was the' first man in
the councils of the nation who gave the
curse of slavery a death blow, and who
was invited to leave the Cabinet on ac
count of his extreme radical views. Let
us not be led away byeloquent tongues,
but lobit to the man- who has always
stood up for our interests- at all times
and in all places:
The Pittsburg Gazette, one of the
ablest papers in the State, says:
"In Allegheny county popular seal
nient is greatly divided between CAM
ERON and CURTIN. The cause of each
warmly espoused an d opposed.
Henee,'the delegation is divided, and
likely to remain so. According to the
latest reliable reports a majority of them
are for CAMERON."
The Troy Gazette, the first to take up
•the argument for Cameron in Northern
Pennsylvania, and one of the most can
did and able of Repiiblica» papers in
the state, says in its last issue:
"Ours was tie firstpaper in the north
ern tier of counties tlyat• declared the
preference of our people for Gen. Simon
Cameron : and so far a. we know, the
first paper in the State that did so. We
did -0 after mature , reflection, and a
kli4 - ledge of the sentiments of western
Bradford and we are pleased to see
that the key note thus struck, has called
fin t h !-o many ausNylUng echoes.
- Thai the result is at all doubtful, we
do npt believe, though the contest be
tween the friends of Curtin and Came
ron will be a warm one in all probabil
ity. We need a man wholly in sympa
thy with the interests of Pennsylvania,
and, what is more, wholly in sympathy
with the great party which has control
of the work of restoration, and will fitly
repreent the State in that labor."
.'CAST THY BREAD UP4l , :i THE W.l'l--
Ens."—Gen. Cameron (flys the WU
lianisport Bulictino was ti e first Cabi
net Minister who insisted upon em
ploying the negroes to aid in putting
down the rebellion. At that time,
President Lincoln' - thought it unnec
essary, and the timid men around him
thought the people would not approve
the measure; so Gen. 'ameron's:report
vas curtailed and tl best part of it
knocked off. He ever changed his
opinions, but the A inistration came
to him. Now that he is again -before
the people as a candidate for f*riator,
his sagacity in that celebrated report is
doing him more good than any other
act of his political life. He :cast his
bread upon the waters, and is finding
it after "many days." Gen. Butler,.
in a recent speech, said:
"In January, 1862, Gen. Cameron,
then Secretary of War, put in his 're
port the assertion that the slaves ought
to be employed as soldiers against their
masters, and immediately the cry was
raised all over the country ,_ ( 'WI this
is a white man'swar : nonegroesshould
be employed in this way ; it ought to be
fought nut by white men. It is a white
man,s quarrel solely.. The negroes
don't know enough to be soldie,p; they
do not know enough to kill men. Mr.
Cameron had to leave Mr.. Lincoln's
Cabinet because olthatrepiart and go to
Russia.'" '
MRS. JAMES, of Chicago was about to
be married, and received from an un
known source a glass Jar containing the
dead body of an infant - preserved in
alcohol. Mrs. James feinted... note
with the disgusting present read "I
am in search of P. Clark. _ my:fu
ture stepmothertell me .where to find
him?' P. Clark was her ati3apped,
but from whence the pickled babe was
spirited and expressed from, is a Chi
cago mystery. .
DETROIT is a famous spot for sensa
tions. The late - st in the tale of how an
orphan girl named Catherine Bruner
was wooed, but not won, by her aged
guardian; how - a young beau made his
appearance and became t suitor for her
hand, and how he fooled the old gen
tleman by eloping with the girl and
making her his Wife.
IN Philadelphia on Monday last a
young man named John Hornhy took
up a gun and proceeded-to illustrate to
his sister how people shot , themselves
by carelessly handingfire arum. While
doing this the gun was discharged and
he was instantly killed. He was much
too practical in his methods of teaching.
AN old lady of Columbus, afflicted
with dropsy, recently underwent for
the twenty-sixth time, the operation of
removing the secreted fluid. This is a
very remarkable e-nSP, as few stand the
awful operation more than five or six
times.
THE Philadelphia _Yews says that the
health of that city is remarkable good,
but few deaths occuring, and winds up
by saying that their "best and most
renowned city physicians may be seen
down in the marshes engaged in shoot
ing." The latter fact may account for
the scarcity of deaths.

ANOTHER BEREAVEMENT
Don't be alarmed:• The bereavement
alluded to does not threaten the peace
of the nation. It falls upon the bowed
head of " Democracy," and is akin to
that which came with the fall of Rich
mond and the suirender of Lee and
Johnston, the Killing of Booth, and
the hanging of Mis g euratt, ,Atzerodt,
Payne, and Harold, the assassins.
This new cloud of grief !irises Tin the
far east. Indeed, it hails
_from that
great source of Copperhead aillictions—
AFRICA. Consul-General Hale, at
Alexandria, Egypt, has sent to Mr.
Seward,three little lines like these:.
"I have arrested John H. Suratt, one
of President Lincoln's assassins. No
doubt of identity." '
-These three lines have raised a great
" com motion-notion . s Olion," as the' song
bath it, among those virtuous creatures
the qpperhead editors. Not a paper
of thtit stamp has reached us- which
does not bear to us, the words of "in
continent lireuzy," horn of love for as
sassins of Republican Presidents and
would-be assassins of. Re puhi f c s.—
The tender regrets which are interject
ed like exclamation points into the
prose dirges of these virtuous gentle
men, appeal to our sympathy. They
regret that there is to be another mock
trial," another "predetermined ver
dict," another " barbarous execution."
Oh Ah ! Alas ! Has some evil disposed
ox gored your circumspect bulls? We
remember how, when Lincoln was as
sassinated, the grief was ours, of the
Republican press. * During that season
of , public berenve,ment we noted the
tone of these same editors. We observed
that their grief was simulated when it
manifested itself at all but oftener
their only comments upon the awful
crime were dictated from the stand
point of cold-blooded policy. They
.deprecated the deed as one likely to re
act in favor of the Republican party.—
This was the depth of their horror at a
crime which Mocked the civilized
world, and placed the martyr's crown
upon the icy forehead of Abraham
Li ncoln.
Rut there came' a time when these in
choate assassins, for that term properly
describes every Copperhead editor in
America—found the tap to - their tears.
When lynx-eyed
. justice-hunted down
Booth, and seized upon his accompli
c:es ; when these accomplices were ar
raigded, fairly tried, convicted," sen
tenced, and hung, then went up their
wail. The detectives first came -in for
furious denunciation; then the officers
of the Court which tried - the murderers ;
and finally the Exeeutive himself,
when he signed the death warrant, was
assailed-most virulently. This was be
fore Mr. Johnson concluded to cast his
lot with traitors and their sympathizers.
And we again repeal? • the charge—
that not one Copperhead] paper within
our ken manifested as much genuine
horror of the murder of Mr. Lincoln, as
the editors of, such papers ordinarily
manifest-at some theory of some un
balanced jpolitician which threatens to
punish crime and establish justice.
Not only this, but any one of these
editors -expend more indignation -and"
lamentations because of the punish
ment of Mrs. Suratt & Co., than the
. .whole pack did because of the' crime
which Mrs. Suratt & Co., committed.
And with the apprehension of the
lot—John H. Suratt— the wound opens
anew, bleeds afresh, andthe entire pick
of sympathizers weep and howl.
.We alluded to this not to complain.—
On the contrary we are glad to have the
accessories of murder . avow their sym
pathy with murderers. ,
When a professional thief perpetrates
an adroit robery the brotherhood of
thieves is loSt in admiration. :4 some
shrewd detective nabs the skilful opera
tor, what more -natural than that the
brotherhood of thieves should 'be over_
whelmed with sorrow and indignation,
and exclaim against the cruelty of law.
and the mockery_ of justice
Make the application to the case in
hand, and the animus of the party
which regrets the arrest of Suratt is
plain.
So we redeclare our, life-lastinihos
tility to this infernal party which sails
under fabie colors of Democracy. Its
appropriate flag is Death's-head and
cross-bones on a black field..
" Is this paper published in the reh
el States ?" asked a friend picking up a
Copperhead sheet on our table the other
day.
We replied that it was published in
Clinton county, in this Congressional
district. That the editOrilike many'
another Northern man, respected those
who respected him, and sympathized
with those who sympathized with him
and his party. When . hp talks about
" Yankee abolitionists" be, understands
that hisreaders are still unaware ,that
Slavery is abolished by constitutional
amendment, and that the convention
which nominated Hiester Clymer en
dorsed the abolition of Slavery. That's
all.

That accounts for the milk in onr co

DETROIT has another strange story.
Three years ago the windows of one of
its banks was broken, and several pack
age,s of money stolen therefrom. The
thief escaped and no clue was ever ob
tained to secure his identity or• arrest.
In Cincinnati, a few days ago, a youth
made his appearance "on a drunk,"
giving his name as Charles Thompson.
He entered a station house, and to a
policeman revealed the fact; which had
preyed upon his conscience, that he
was the bank thief of Detroit. Next
morning,'duly sober, he reiterated his
statement, and - asked to be sent to
Michigan for trial. He said he had
stolen $4,000, all'of which he had gone
through in leading a fast life in Canada.
With a guilty conscience, his life was
,purgatory, and he imagined everybody
a policeman ready to arrest him, and
gave himself up to prevent his going
mad.
