    B.Romantic Story 'of Buried Tv:maitre
on an Inland in the South Pacific.
A San Francisco. paper, noticing the
fo'rmation in that city of the "South
343
Pacific Protecting Coinany" (which is
reported . ! to be the si teenth attempt
made for the same pur ose), gives the
following romantic hi ry of the bur-,
led treasure- which thi company seeks
to. recover : The sttit Object of the
company -is to- recovbi buried" treasure
in Cocos Island—that is, to attempt to
recover, provided the treasure is there
In 1854 or 1855 - , a company with the
same object-in view was gotten up at
the same place.' Stock. in the golden
venture was liberally bought and - lib
erally.sold, as, robably many in Marys , .
ville will recollect, as the schooner Ju
rlitui Pringle, well manned and provis
ioned, -sailed away, and with a fair wind
made &straight wake for the Pirate's
Isle. -Some time afterwardshe returned
-with—a cargo of lumber. it appeared
that an exceedingly strong current was
found running round the. jsfaud, so
strong that'll landing could'notbe effect
ed. . .
In fact there is but one place there
where a boat can land, and that adven
turers failed to discover its whereaboutsi
and so, after consunfieg nearly all their
provisions, they beaded .back for ,San
Francisco, stopping at a. place -on the
coast for a cargo. Another attempt was
made five or six years after, with what
result-we have forgotten. The history
connected with the treasure is as fol
lows. A great many' years ago the
Pacific Ocean was infested With bump:
'l eers, the majority of them coining
from Spain. One of them, named
Lollonais,-rendered himself most noto
rious by his • piracies • at sea, and his
• murders and robberies on , land. After
hini carats 'Henry Morgan, a Scntelanan ,
who by his bloodthirstiness and daring
recklessness threw, into theshadeall, the
acts of his predecesSors,. the Spaniards.
lie landed at and pillaged all the princi
pal towns on the South American cciast,
always *torturing the inhabitants in the
most inhuman manner, in order, to
' compel them to confess *here they bad
hidden their money andjewels. Twice
be landed at Panama, and by horrid
cruelty forced from the people a great
- portion of, their wealth. lt was after
one of these "raids" that Morgans With
his fleet of thirty-three vessels, went to
the Island of Taboga, a- short dikitanee
fromyanama, to have agrand carousal.
• Here some of the' crew mutinied, and
`,seizeing one of the best ships, went 'on
"an independent cruising, during which
they fell in with a Spanish galleon
bound from a;.N.lexican or Chilian port
• to Spain, laden with gold coins andjew
els belonging to the church, of the val
ue-of 5.20,000,000. After transferringthe
booty to 'their own ship, they scuttled
and sunk the other, first putting to
death all on board with the exception
of two buys. Next a niansof-war hove
in sight, gave chase, and the pirnte*
steered for Cocos island (distant from
Panama/1,000 miles, more or less, in a
Westerly direction), where they hastily
lowered the boats to carry the treasure
on shore. Two boat loads were safely
landed and quickly buried, while 'the
third,deoat was swamped, and its load
(which was but lit small portion of the
whole) went to the bottom,' where it
could very plainly be seen through the
clear water.
All hands were soon again on board,
and all sail made upon the ship.' But
- they were overhauled before night, and
all slain -but the two boys who were
again spared. They were - carried to
Spain. where they lived and'died. One
of them had several times attempted td
fl
inuence some wealthy men still 1
clentlY
to induce a search for the treasure, but
none would believe his story ; and on
his death-bed he Solemnly assured some
friends that the account he had given
was true. As the northeast end of the
island (or the southwest, or some other
part) is the only spot where a landing
can be made, and that through a toler
ably heavy surf. On the beach is a
naturaT basin, formed in a rock .by the
constant dripping of water, drinkable
' anti pure ay crystal, for so malty years.
As the pirates were in a great hurry,
theY.coeldn't have buried the golden
ouzas and church ornaments very deep—
hut then what changes may have taken
place there within a hundred years!
The spot may now be overgrown with
thick, tangled brushwood, and—but
'who can say the freebooters' treasure
has not been retrieved long ago?
Stanton and tho President
The following is the correspondence
-between the President and Secretary of
War: •
WASHINGTON, Aug, .5;1867.
SIR :--Public considerations of a high
character constrain me to say that your
resignation as Secretary of War will bp
accepted. Very respectfully,
• ANDREW JOHNSON.
To which the Secretary replied as fol
lows: '

A RVMARICABLE ESCAPE.—We have
not heard anything for a long time
more surprising than the following facts,
communicated to us by Mr. Landis Ber
, Ty, who resides on the hill a few doors
beyond the toll-gate. Mary Birch, a
little girl nine or, ten years old, daught
er of Mosgßirch, living near Mr. Ber
ry's has been in the, habit of • going to
his well to *draw water for her mother.
On Monday last she went to the well 4s
usual, and while stooping over the curb
in.the act of filling her vessel with wa
. tel. from the bucket, she lost her balance
and fell headlong . into the well. Mr.
• Berry and family were at dinner and
; ; hearing the windlass revolving with'
'Unusual velocity, they 'went out and
' folind the little girl at; the bottom of the
well' alive and - sensible, 'struggling to
keep herself from drowning. By means
1 / 4 61 the bucket, rope and windlass, they
soon restored her to terra firma, when
it was found that she had sustained, no
injury except a slight cut over the right
eye, and a trifling wound on the top of
tpe' head. The well is twenty-eight
feet deep with eight feet of water in • it,
' is walled with stone and has a diameter
o only three feet. How the little thing
could escape dashing her brains out in
the' fearful fall, or being drowned in a
depth of water twice her length, is al
together astOnishing and inexplicable.

ATTACKED BY A SNAKE.—Op Sunday
afternoon a week, our young friend,
Mr. Wu. 13uonsT, of Clinton township,
went to the mountain to gather a few
" huckleberries" for a sick member of
the family. , After krocuring as many
berries - as he desired,and had started
'for home, his foot came contact with
a large black snake. ; Instantly his
snake-ship gave battle, awl coiled itself
around the body •of Mi. BROBST. Mr.
B. was of course muci 'frightened and
confused, but finally, 'ucceeded In get
ting his knife out of his pocket but the
spring being a very strong one he could
notopen it. Failing in hig purpote to
open the knife and \ cut his adversary in
two, he commenced beating it over the
head with the dosed knife and continu
ed to do so until it loosened its hold and
dropped from his person. . Feeling very.
sick Mr. B walked to a log near by and
sat down, but in the course of a few
minutes went in search of the snake
again but it had made its escape ipto
the bushes. Upon an examination in
the evening 11ir. 33, found that he had
been so tightly squeezed by tht. reptile,
that a deep redmark encircled his body,_

the whole affair as a farce. .They pro

CAMPAIGiI ETECICB.
The Tribune's comment upon the ad
dress of the Republican state Coninilt
tee has excited various "remark..
.The
Sharswood papers cite it as alestimony
to the lunexcePtionable character of
their andislate; the Republican papers!
complain of it as an unwarrantable in
terference with Pennsylvania politics.
We regard it as neither proving' t 1
'unexceptionable charaetci of Judg
Sharswood, nor as a serious interfer
ence with the conduct of the catupaigi
by _the Republican State Committeel
It is of no consequence whatsoever, as
we loOk at it. Assuredly it_ cannot as
sist Judge Sharswood In the campaign.
The Republ i lcans will conduct the cam
paign in their own Nly, nor suffer the
inadvertent,comment• of an outsider to
control their action or dampen
,their
dor. -
It, doe' not require great ellsOrt to
show; conclusively, as we think, that
the action and utterances or Judge
Sharswood thirty years ago, tonching
Sta,telllights, are quite germane to the
business of the present campaign. At
all events, .we shall Make the eliOrt. 1.
We cite the 4ient of the political
history of .his country from its early
beginning r imier the Constitution. He
will note that the destructive doctrine
of State-Rights took root in the very
morning of our. nationality. It w,
conceived, brought forth, and nurtur
into malevolent vigor, by Thomas' .I?l
1.
erson, the rival
.and enemy of Was i l
ing,ton, about whom partial history q
lied, but chiefly 'to his advantage. Ni
purpose plain sileaking ; truth is be:
though not always agreeable. .And :
for• popular gods' our hand is xiw, I
i
ever, against them. Thomas Je rs
promulgated the doctrine ,of tat
l e
.Rights as the avowed enemy Of t
Constitution. He was the author of t
Virginia Resolutions of '9B, reprodu II
by the South Carolina Nullifiers
ward of thirty years ago, and I 'llna
resurrected from the grave to whit
Jackson consigned them, and made of
of the chief corner-stones of the Col
federacy of 1861. But for this doctrir
there would have been no rebellion, n
devastating war. Slavery furnisile
the pretext, but the doctrine of State
Rights prepared the Southern mind fo
sece4ion, and emboldened the - leader,
to appeal from the ballot to the sword
Take up the utterances of the leaden
and journalists of the party which
.iut
Judge Sharswood in nomination, all
through the war, and you will see t iat
they'uniformly pressed State-Right as
the ekeuse for rebellion, as well as he
charge of usurpation against the (len
eral Government. Buchanan excu ed
secession on ;the ground that under he
Consfitutionthe Government could :lot
coe ce a State. Judge Black, Attorney
Gc mita, announced the same docti'ne. -
An all through the war it was
i irtri
no heed . by the men who nominated
Sli trkwoOd, that the rights of ass.`•eq
tj,
eig i:gtate were paramount I
Therefore we do not err in regard ng
State-Rights as the initial line of di vs
ion between parties in this Republic.
Washington, Hamilton, Jay,, ad
,t (
' Lee e'ticling the column lu suPpor ol
the Constitution and the paramo ial
rights Of the whole, and Jefferson, )la
son, and Monroe, leading the cola ' .1
against, tlib Conrtitution, and in s p
port y the paramount sovereignty c
a State as kgainst the General Gove r
went. St4ting with the Governme
i a
the line of division is Strongly mar e
from that day to this. South Caroni'
undertook to nullity the tariff in obe
ence to this dietum."Of State:Rights r
The South undertoOk;Secessibn td vi
dicate State-Rights ; and Andrew Jeli
lion's policy of 'Reconstruction is in r
cordance with the doctrine of Ste!
Rights—he, and his Copperhead-re
Supporters belt* intent upon the rigl
of certain individual States, and Cc
gress, backed by the Rvpublicari par
being equally. intent u 4 15 - bn the righ
peace, and security of thirty-six Sta 6
or the entire republic.
This, briefly, is the situation. T. 1
this question about State-Rights outl t
the canvass and.there could be no strii
between partiesuntil a new issue sho l,
be brought forward. The campaign ii
Pennsylvania is to be made upon tia;
issue and no other. PersontillY, hth
Landidates are unobjectionable ; and as
ro legal ability they are peers. ut
Judge Sharswood has been au active
State4Rights nplitician for more tl an
thirty years. We published a grap lic
sketch of his record in the AddresS of
the Republican State Committee. The
fact that Judge Sharswood is the noini
nee of the State-Rights party is piJoof
that be continues in good standing rfs a
State-Rights man. Therefore is it nec
essary, and eminently Just, to produr
his political record against hiin. If i
sus porters Will - produce - the tecird' of
Jt dgo Williams no fair man will,
o coin
i
pi in. His political recbrd_ is written
al through the last quarter of a centu
r , and is public property, As for us,
w shall endeavor to confine the vote
fiih3 opponent to, those who believe
in Abe doctrines bf - Calhoun, .'of whom
Sharswood is a life-long disciple.
And we declare anew, that we shall
Ii .ht the State-Rights heresy as long as
it afflicts the republic. .Let it:prevail
aid the republic must - go to pieces. It
NN AS the child of demagoguery, as. it is
ti e ward of demagogues. Thl; battle is
n Ptnew ; for it disturbed and.embitter
c • Washington'a declining days . and
II Jed• him gloomy forebodings of the
f tare.
"Ton may knew a man by the COM
pa? he keeps," is an old saying, and
n's rue as-it is ancient. There is a law
Of j social gravitation as well as a
physical law of gravitation. Men, and
cbeabinations of men, always gravitate
to their proper ' places. Put a thief in'
community where there are ten thieves,
nti he will make the acquaintance of
very man of them • before ho has been
here two days. . .
• It is said that the practice of celling
the Copperheads rebels and traitors - is' a
harsh one. It may 1?e harsh, 'but is it
.not just? Mark who these it eu ' quote
when they want'to make a point. If
the fight is on a Union General, they
search the rebelnewspapers for evidence
against him. Just now, Copperhead
papers 'are firing away at " Ben. Butler.
Robert Quid, the Richmond repel Com
missioner, of Exchange of prisoners
during the war, writes a letter Rating
that he ooered to exchange 15 1 ,000 sick
and wounded Union prisoners .for l an'
equivalent.• This was in 1804. The
inference IS that Gen. Butler refused to
accept the proposition. But Gen. Buller
makes aii official .statement denying
that Mr. Ould ever addressed him such
a proposition. The Copperheads pub
lish Ould's charge, and do not publish
'the fact that Butler has officially de
mied its truth. They use Ould's letter
to batter Butler. Of course we all know
that any Copperhead will sooner believe
a traitor than aman who foughttraitors.
It is the most natural thing in the world
for them to do it.
We have never doubted Mr. Seeretary
Stanton. 'He has been Aleut when
speech seemed the order- of the hour,
and some have - therefore regarded him
as atrimmer; Mr. Stanton hastrimmed
his sails so as to convey the ship of
State into still waters if possible. He
early:saw that the Captain was drunk
and irresponsible, the first ma t te in his
dotage, the'second mate imbecile, and
the petty officers simply servile. He,
as pilot, kept sober, and never left the
wheel. He obeyed orders, rather than
abandon the ship to inebriate officers.
This could not last long, of course;
and so the other day, Mr. Johnson sent
a note to Mr. Stanton saying to him "I
will 'accept your resignatiOn." Mr.
Stanton replied substantially,—"Thank
you ; but I propose to stand by the ship
until Congress returns." We hope he
will carry out his propOsition by all
means. The people cannot yet' afford
to spare Secretary Stanton -from the
post he has so ably and faithfully, occu
pied- s h 3e j at rary DitiZ—Avc and n boar
years. All iii all, such a head for work
was never in a Governn3ent Depart
ment. Gruff, blunt, sometimes ungen
tlemanly, less of a man would have
broken down in any six months 0f1862.
Faults he Las, of course; but no -Intelli
gent man has yet 'assailed his strict
integrity and impartial administration
of the affairs of the War Office. Stand
by! Mr. Stanton l The people tiie with
you.

A HORRIBLE DISASTER,—The col
umns of the European German papers
are filled with, the particulars of the
greatest disaster that eveisdeiolated any
mining district.
On the Ist of July the wooden frame
work of a 1,500 feet deep pit of a coal
m;' e in the neighborhood of Lugen, in
. xony,- gave way, blocking up with au
impenetrable mass of timber and rock,
the pit at a depth of about 300 ells from
the top. At the moment of the disast
er, 102 men, nearly all the supporters of
large families, were working in the bot
tom of the mine. Their provisions were
only calculated for one day. On the sth
of July, the date of our latest news by
mail, the place where the fallen masses
had stopped the pit was of such a solid
structure that the water was standing
on it many feet high.
From all sides the most available help
was offered, but the, conviction that
nothing could be done soon enough to
save the unfortunate miners weakened,
'as it seems, any energetic efforts. They
were doomed to die of starvation and
want of fresh air: On the 4th of July
all attempts to reach the bottom of the
mine by any quick process were aband
oned, and a sure but slow plan was de
vised by which at least the corpses of
the perished could be extracted. Iron
tubes of abOut two feet in diameter
were to be sunk through the obstruct
ions down to the- bottpm of the' pit.—
Among the dead are forty-four" married
men, one of whom had a wife and nine
living children.' The scenes at the. en
trance of the pit are described aslament
able witheut a parallel. One hundred
and thirty-seven children filled the air
with their woeful cries, whilst the su
perintendent of -the mine, to whose
negligence the disaster waa ascribed by
the people, could only be saved from be
ing mobbed by his sudden imprison
ment.

“Nirlien the Democratic Party was in•power.”
'We are continually and hugely amus
ed with the boasting of Certain Copper
head organs as to what the democratic
party did When it Was in power. The
people are told that the radicals are
destroys se Government, deprecia
ting tWvalue Of property, and seriously
damaging all iits resources of wealth.
This, ejaculate the copperhead organs,
was not the cahe when the Democratic
party was in power. But those who
recklessly charge corruption on the
radicals, and claim purity for the Dem
ocracy, are as barren of facts to prove
their charges as they i' are to establish
their claims. , • -
'lt is a historical fact, that while that
party was iupower, in every department
or the Government, :the scheme of se
cession was concocted by the leading
Democrats of the South, who controlled
the Government and' managed the
Democratic party of the country. Long
before Mr. Lincoln was inaugurated
President of the United States; aye, on
the very day it •Was announced to the
American people that he was elected
President, and before his, policy of
Government could be enunciated, 'it
was telegraphed from South Carolina
to Washington that the secession of
that State was a foregone conclusion.
Not only that, but December 20, 1860,
South Carolina seceded ; January 7,
1861 Florida seceded ; • Mississippi went
out January 9; January 11, Alabama
seceded ; on the 16th of thesamemouthr
Louisiana seceded ; Georgia on .the 19th
i
of Ja nary ; Arkansas• May 6; North
Carolina
the 21st of May, and Tennessee
the lsttll, day of May ; Texas February 5 ;
Virginia April 27th. Every one, of
'these were Democratic States, constitu
ting the main strength of that party
Which now elaimsto be the only salva
tion of the country, ann nearly all them
seceded from the Union before Mr. Lin
coln was inaugurated, and . under a
Democratic administration. -
But let us go further, and see - what
these Southern people did while they
yet had all the power In the Govern
ment the Treasury archives, Army
and Navy. These States went into re
hellion on the day§ we have given, and
began their deeds of capture and plun
der as was their - plan. January 2d,
1881, South Carolina troops took pos
session of Fort Johnson. Fort Pick
ens, December 27, 1860. ']his fort cost
th e government $53,808. Anderson
'was compelled to evacuate Fort Moul
trie December 26th, 1860. January 3,
1861, Fort Pulaski, in Georgia was
seized, costing the government as it did
.$989,859. Fort Jackson costing the
government $182;000; was 00nupled Jan
uary 3; 1862. Fort Marion St. Augus
tine Island, Florida, January 7, 1862,
cost $51,000. Fort Barrancas Pensacola,
January 12th, 1861. Pensacola seized
January 15th, 1861. Fort Morgan seized
January 4th, 1861, c05t51,242,552. Fort
Gaines was seized January 4, 1861, 1 post
$221,500. Fort on ship Island January
20, 1861. Fort on St. Philip, near New
Orleans seized January 10th 1861, cost
$268;734. Fort Livingston seized Jan
uary 18th, 1861, cost $362,377, Fort
Brown, Texas, March sth 1861. Fort
Smith, Arkansas, taken April 21, 1861
with stores, &c. ; valued at 3,000,000.
Nearly the whole of this unlawful and
rebellious work had been done while
the Democratic party was in power.
We have given the dates and the
facts of history. Our enumeration of
the wrongs of the Democratic party,
when in power, forms but a 'portion of
the dark crimes which hang over the
career of that organization. In its at
tributes as a political organisation it
may fairly be accounted as the Beast of
the' nineteenth century, because Its
course has. been marked by 'brutality
and it is covered with the blood of the
noble and the brave who died for- the
safety of the Government. It would
be as well at least for Democrats here
after, not to boast of what the Demo
cratic party did when it was in power.

cost more in attempted repairs, than their origi

from the reception of the ittW materials to the

direction. But the great distinguishing 'feature
of their Watches, is 'the fact that their - feyeral
parts are all made by finest, the most perfect
and delicate machinery over brought to tho aid
of human industry. Every °noel the more than
a hundred ittirts of every; watch is made by a

*lt ntitkeo four different etitch, the /ork, Jr.
double lock, and double, knot, on one and IL
same machine. Each stitch being, alg: . < or
eider of the fabric.
Every Afaehino has the reversible fad
which enables the operator, by simply turning
thumb screw, to have the work run either tot
right or lefC, to stay any part of the seam, r
fasten the ends of soann., without turning t.e
fabric,
Changing' tho length of stitch, and fruni
kind of stitch to another, can 'readily be
while tho Machine is in motion.
The neodlo is easily adjusted, and does out 1
stitelios.
It is almost noiseless, and can he need wt
quiet is neeci,sary.
.
Its • 'notions aro all pMlitive; there orZ) to
spri ug ss to got out of order, and its simplicity n.
auks any one td operate it.
It does not require finer thread on the el der
than for the upper side, and will sow across the
heaviest seams, or from ono to more thickne see
of cloth, without change of needle, ten um,
breaking thread, or skipping stitches.
The Hemmer is easily adjusted and will ore
any width of hem desired. - -
No other Machine will do so great a ran oof
work as the Florenc .
, It will hem, fell, bind, gather,braid, quilt, and
gather and sew on a file at the sam% time It
has no springs to get out of order, and will km
a life time.
It is -fully protect d and licensed by ;hos
Howe, Jr.. and our own Letters Patent. .
Tho•taking tip of the slack thread is no per.
formed by the irregular contraction of a wir coil
or uncertain operation of springs, The preciision
and accuracy with which the Florence draw's the
thread into the cloth 'is unapproached i . any
Sowing Altichine hitherto offered in the wat - d.
We furnish each Machine with " Bar am',
Self-Sewer," which guides the work itself, rid to
of incalculable value, especially to inox'pori neei
operators.
While possessing the above, and many other
advantages, the Florence is sold at oorrorund
ing prices with other first-class Machines, and a
careful examination will fully substantio l te ell
that we have claimed fur it, and justify the asser
tion we now make, that' it is the best Sewing Ma
chine in the world.
We warrant every Machine to be all tb t ne
claim for it, and to give entire aatisfactio , and
will give a written warranty, if required. •
