' The authorship of such an article would mantle with shame the countenance of any man deserving the proud title of an "Amer' 'learCeitizenunless it was one so long steeped in the unholy vices - of DemOc- , i•ti . cy,' as to be utterly oblivous to all Ifeelings i of decency. As a colored citi zen or the United States ask leaf through your columns to answer ,the slur said article attempts to put upon my race. I see by reference to , the col; umns of the Jonrnal, that J.

These in ,dividuals'are doubtless DeMearats, dyed lin the wool, but they are not men, pure hearted,-noble minded, generous Inca, capable of rising.for one moment above the- petty considerations of party, or they would not at a time when six pillions of their countrymen were re : joking over the 'final guarantee of their •liberties, have per mit I oil such an article to have appeared in their columns. It seems strange the Demociatic and editors, do not comprehilid the fact, that both slavery and - Chief Jus tice Taney are dead, and that bit{ck men have ; rights which, even Demo crats—however white the color of their skin—are houtid to respeet. hat a mighty revolution ten ',seals .have wrought ! A revolution so gigantic, so sudden, amtyet Ho complete, that - the human mind (much less the Democrat ic mind) falls to comprehend it. The first gun that boomed over the waters of Charleston harbor, meant something more•than civil war.- For it said to the black man "look up from thy Soil, and 'know thyself a mini. 'That shot tired by Democratic hands, caused millions of whites to trembW with anxiety and fear, but to the black man, it was an anthem of joy s , herald ing the dawn of the long looked for day of deliverance. - And now while the echo of that. gun is ringing in our eats, the last vestige of human slavery is swept away, and every A mei lean citi zen is guaranteed full political rights, without regard to color or previous con dition.

The gallant b r Feniansi aving , ,spent all the ardor of their latest hope in pitriful'endeavors to drive .the ruling power out of the Do minion of Canada, have returned to their homes, leaving most of their lead ers, in the !Muds of the United States Marshals, who arrested them by author ity of the proclamation of President Grant, published last'week.. We have not taken the pains to read the full details of, this foolish enterprise. It is a good subject for ridicule; but there are some ardent patriots engaged in it ; and, for all the impracticability of the project, we can but admire the, exhibition of that patriotic spirit which impels them to engage so earnestly in such a futile undertaking. Sometime since, we suggested the propriety of their marching to the as sistance of the Red River' insurrection ' lets. • Instead of acting open our ad vice, they have made a-, general attack along the Whole line, and have been' driven back in confusion from the bloody field. How numerous are the killed and wounded, we are unable to say. suffices that their army has been spattered, and that the "'lrish Re public}' is, for the time being, a relic of the past. How soon a new election Will be held to cut a new deal for the Spoils, made up of the wages of servant girls and superstitious men, we are unable to say. Soon enough, no doubt. Would it not.bo better now, for our adopted cit izens to lay down the hatchet, beat their swords into plowshares, and sit quietly beneath the peaceful shade of the tree of that liberty which is broad and deep enough for all the nations of the world ? We,publish on the first page, a char , acteristie letter from Gerrit Smith to Henry Wilson, on the subject of tem perance. . Temperance is a great moral 'efortit. Intemperance is strongly en treneled in the selfish interests of some, and pie appetites and prejudices of oth ers:l4Th° world will yet see the day when drunkenness will be looked upon as unsurpassed disgrace. The time will be hastened by healthful agitation ; and deplorable as is the history of the downfall of slavery, the annals of thhi struggle may yet relate far , greater de struction of human happiness. 1 Yet, as the Abolitionists did not ac complish the final - manurnissio n, nei c theris it likely they can beat ba k and blot out this public wrong of liiteut.pe ranee. _The reasons are, that political parties are a necessity in the land ; and other great. interests, which more im mediately touch the pockets of men, must shape the course of parties. It would not be well, at this time ; to give way to the desire of many good men 'and women to make temperance the ONE GrREAT QUESTION IN POLITICS to the sacrifice of others, which, though they may not be of so vital consequence to the soup of rnen,,are yeL, in the order of things, of more immediate impor tance to the vital needs and essential Wants of man. Men have physical, moral, intellectual needs, individual and often peculiar in their nature; in volving their own " two and substantial happiness." Ma nk iJI d , agreeing to li ve in soeieMry relations, nliust , be content with such supply of their - necessities as may, be afforded by the common multi ple of all which they may agree to share in common. At this time, men disagree among themselves as to the best means of secu ring their own happiness, in many, per haps all things ; but they agree to enjoy certain privileges in common, givta3g li c'ense.to each other to a certain extent, while they with •equal unanimity con sent to abstain from many things which the common judgnient condemns as wrong. JOIIN 11f oLsoN Evils are constantly growing up in the moral world, and ever demanding the efforts of good and virtuous—that is, strong, earnest men anti women, to re sist and suppress them.l i )To make laws effectual in the suppression of evils, they must be sanctioned by the consent of the Masses,' compriSing the people who are to obey them : To work re form in morals, is to prepare mankind in their hearts beforehand; and then it Will not be necessary to.: advocate the passagl of laws which 'their own feel ings and judgment endorse. This, in our view, is the great work `which lies before the reformers and philanthro pists of our time. Conquerin the heart, and the conquest will he lasting. It is a selfish principle, after all,' which con trols all the nets of men.' Even the clar4tian expects reward, while ho or she may suffer and endure every hard ship to gain it. ;We do good to others; because, perhaps, we think it a duty; and in all, our lives, we may not be able to sacrifice too much for those we love yet is there . an inward satisfaction in it all, which moves the hidden smings of action in our hearts. Virtue brings her own reward in all things : crime and wrong their infallible punishment. Teach men this lesson, and they will follow the precepts of the, perfect LaW giver ; not driven on by compulsion, but led on by charity, sustained by love, and elated with hope. More than the stern compulsion of law, is the divine attraction of the rule of a perfect life ;- and, while we may need, in our impet uous moments, the restraint of a law made by us in our tender and pure hours, to keep us from the errors which sometimes overtake the best and the most faithful, no law of force will pro duce so lasting reform as the gentle per suasion which teaches men to do right, becaule it is best for all. tl Once for all, let it be understood that the Aniwergn considers temperance purely a moral, not a political, question.

The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia _Evening Star, gossip ping of political matters puts in a word for the Northern Tier, and mentions Hon. Wm. H. Armstrong as a probable candidate for Governor. The Star says: One would think from the frequency of alto shin -thereto, by prominent Pennsylvanians here, that the election for Governor occurs this fall in stead of next. A bunch of politicians, gathered about a bar—you'll always find them there, Penn sylvaniani, I mean—and the subject discussed hi en!. next probable Governor. I have been to some pains to gather the sentiments of the peo ple from the whole State, and it seems to me the choice will be made from the northern rer of counties—the " black'district," as it is called.— No Governor has been taken from tho northern part of the State within the memory of man.— David Wilmot was once nominated, but it was at a time when there was no hope of success; Now, when the Republicans are sure of elect ing their candidate, the North demands that her claims shall be recognized; and as she contrib• utes more largely to the success of the Republi can ticket than any other part, and gives a ma jority that can be counted on every time, it is not improbable that she will succeed. Sho will at all events make a good fight for it: As to the can didates, several aro named, but the strength seems to bo centering on Wm. 11. Armstrong, the pros , ant Congressman from tho Williamsport district. He has taken a prominent position among the strong men in CongreSs, and has for years stood as a prominent lawyer in. nil the State courts, and served several terms In the State Legislature! with great credit.. Ile has all the elements of a popular Governor, —wealth, social position, a powerful mind, large experience, agreeable manners, and moral firm ness and habits beyond suspicion. Ho is ono of the most acSomplished gentlemen in Congress, and is known' to bo one of the most intimate with the government officials. CONGRESSIONAL. May 20.—1 n the House, the Northeyn Pacific railroad bill was passed. The bill for the revival of shipping intereits was taken up, very fully discussed, but no final vote was reached. ' Tfie procee dings in the.Benate were of very little interest. May 27.-1 n the House, the bill to en force the Fifteenth Amendment was considered, and the report, of the Con ference Committee was adopted. It w goes to the President for his signa tiire. The Legislative Appropriation bill was passed by the Senate. May 3l.—The President signed the Fifteenth Amendment and the Pacific railroad bills. In the House, the ship ping bill waS discussed, and finally re ferred back to the committee. The Tax bill was discussed, Gen. Butler making a powerful speech in favor of simplify ing the whole system. -- June I.—ln the Senate, the bill to change the judicial circuits was passed. The House Committee on Appropria tions began the consideration of the Senate amendments to the Appropria tion bill. There are 258 amendments in I'll. It is thought those increasing the salaries of United States Judges will 'not pass. It is claimed that the incressA propo'sed would make an additional ex-' pense of $300,000. It, is hoped also that the appropriation of'. $1,000,000 fora new State Department and to extend the capitol grounds, will be disagreed to. The income tax was discussed. The bill to enforce the Fifteenth .Amendment has become a law. It is designed to secure to the newly enfran chised blacks the right to exercise the elective franchise, and provides penal ties for certain acts, tending to hinder them in such exercise, and also to main tain the general purity of the ballot box, by punishing the crime lately so common in the large cities, ,known as " repeating." Vagabond characters in the low centers of great cities vote as often in a day as they call get pay for doing the corrupt work ; and they do it liefiply. Fraudulent registration pre pares the way. So common has this practice become, that an election is a mere farce, where the base practice pre vails. The cheat saps the very founda tion of our form of government. The great prevalence of this system of frauds in election, calls loudly fon' the estab lishment of a moral qualification of suf frage. No man, wanting in the first principles of morality and manly vir tue, is fit to exorcise so sacred a right. Not merely so because suchmen are in competent, by reason of their debased nature, to exercise this privilege intel ligently, but because their want of in tegrity and moral principle puts them in the market, to be bought with mo ney, and thereby makes it possible that the vote of the best citizen may be can celled for a omall pecuniary considera tion. It remains to be ,seen whether any such law as this can be enforced in the localities where the practice most pre vails. To make it less liable to be de feated by foOe of the evil intended to bo remedied,t-jurisdiction is given to the United States Courts, in all such cases. Yot there is so much of corruption and intimidation in such - localities, that its strict enforcement- will be a matter of gceat difficulty. The statement of the ; public debt,• published this week, shows a reduction in two months of more than THIRTY ONE MILLIONS dollars. In the regular and growing reduction of the debt, is found a Sufficient argument for all who wish the country well, to endorse the economical administration of President Grant. And still the Democratic pa pers are bowling about . the taxes,' and extravagance, and ali that. They can d before the people in this 'he people want some policy followed out which shall general benefit of all class es ; and a policy of fault-finding and grumbling, such as has been that of the Democratic party, these many years, will never win their approval. Demo cratic brethren, why not lay before youi readers the fact that a Republican ad ministration is paying off the national debt faste• than was expected by the most ardent, and at a rate which would pay it all inlees than twenty years? • • , "Who's that gentletnain, my little man ?" was asked of an urchin. one with the spike-taled coat " Yes, was the reponse. "Wily, he's a brev et uncle of mine." " now,s that ?" was asked.

Ist. It is expeeted and required of the Assistant Marshal, to be as correct and diligent in the performance of.bis tin ges, as the nature of the case will ad mit of; so that the government may have positive knowledge of the popula tion of the country, and of its resources and wealth, as compared with the last decade. To a certain extent, the posi tion is a delicate and unenviable one, and many may deem the numerous questions to ,be asked, as impertinent, and as evincing an uncalled for disposi tion to pry into their domestic affairs and relations, which, if properly under stood by them, would meet with a ready response, and a disposition to render the officer all the aid in their power. 2nd. When we take into considera tion the many nationalities of which our population is comprised, and, to a certain extent, the envious feelings that exist between the different classes, they require to know beforehand the object of the catechism, so,.they may answer fully and intelligently to all the ques tions to be propounded to them, The law does not contemplate an investiga tion into the pecuniary responsibility or liability of any individual, but sim ply to know the wealth of the country and its reeourees, as well as to prepare for a now division of Representative districts in each of the States of the Union. Also, whatever information is obtained by the officer, is to be kept by him, and at the proper time furnished to the general government, for the ben efit of all concerned. Knowing this, it is hoped and expected that all good cit izens will aid the Marshal to the best of their ability, R. T. WOOD, A't Mg. 134 OSSIP. —There are a great many peo plo in this world, and among them rill a great many kinds of folk. It is said that it takes all sorts to make up a world. Whence I think the world is made up. But after all, they are all alike in ono particular.: Every batman being "carries weight in life." Some carry it upon their hearts, some in their souls, some upon their backs—all aro bent beneath it in BOMO way. We 'may look about us and see many who apparently never know u oaro, or fool a pang of regret, or sigh for anything longed for but never attained: I have Seen many who one time seemed so much at ease in the world, that the lookers on believed them fully so in all things—contented the whole way mug, Ansui reining in IV sweet number tnrougti each night, a long life over. Activity, labor, pastime, life, was repose. The waters round about were placid. i No rude winds awaken, no storms beset. Money, goods, lands, power, emi nence, were all theirs, in unstinted measure.— There was none to dispute title with them. By 'common consent, they held "eminent domain." The life was lovely to look at, as we saw it—the vision was enchanting. Thus is it at a distance. But when we come to look at close view, how all the glitter and ele gance and ease fade away ! Every life has its cares, its sorrows, and, it may be, regretb. Get close enough to any heart•to look within the soul —to look within the veil which hides from vulgar view the inner life,—and many put on the goodly mantle of seeming contentment and resignation,— and you will feel it some time flutter with the pangs of disappointment, of fallen hopes, of some longing unrequited, or of some end in life attained and lost. Itegrot buries up the sunshine of the past; remorse expels the light of the pass ing day, and a long, dark shadow is over all the future, alouding all its hopes, it may be, in the impenetrable darkness of despair I Yet not every life, thank God, is crushed by such a weight. Some there bo who, through the clouds, see the golden sun shiiie, nor reckon any moment lost, even though it have a sorrow. It is because they 800 the life as it is—because they know that man is fallen, and feel that only thro' the one perfect Exemplar of human life,.can they drive away the stains of sins accomplished, and guard against the evils that wo fly to. Every day caoh ono is tempted—some law is broken, and then' the penalty falls as certainly as that time is, in which it may come. How vain seems all this struggle of a' life, if, after all, we must Ho down in death, with all the sears upon our spiritual bodies, not yet healed, when the last great sacrifice is made, and still in curable throughout all the future 1 No ; this eau not be : if wo will, it must be otherwise. Nature cures, heals, renovates; she sets a time when good deeds may bury all the bad, so long regret ted, if at all ;—and can there boa soul that never regrets a wrong? And the good dame rests ! Sweet be her sluni bora, happy her dreams, and not regretted the doming bf the morn. How sad and lone this so liloquy ! How wanders the mind away back through all the sighing winds, which seem fit messengers of remembered happy moments, gone, alas, to never be recalled ! And I wonder if her dreams catch up the mournful fancies of my brain to-night; and if oho reaches out toward me, to learn if they indeed be real 7 If she knows the way, or if she wanders, as I do so often and so much, when the vacant hours come, in.which there is no fast hold upon the world, and all seems wreck, and desolation, and despair! • God save her, and all, from such a lost condition, The awakening seems so terrible ! And what a strange, mysterious thing is this dream of life! All the world are dreamers; and dreams of real and pos sible things, which we know bow to comprehend through the light of our life-experience,' are all well enough ; but when we step beyond, into the Mystic incomprehensible, and seek to find our rookoning there, how is it I Is it not better to stand by the tangible within tho normal sphere 9f our senses, and! not launch out upon the an. known sea ? Those who can do so, will say this is the better way, of course ; they atop when they get out the length of their line, and turn their hands to whatever they may find to do, that paps. Thorn is no use of doing anything that does nipt pay, according to their philosophy. They like to ace the profits within reach. Thep see how things nbout may be turned to account, and they begin at once to make some , use of them. More thought—a thing that cannot be seen or handled, heard, smelt, nor tasted—is of no account, unless it can be used in some way to turn some wheel in the machinery of life. When you step beyond this, there is nothing to stand upon—that is, no thing that they know of—so they stop short, and rest contented. They have never yet fitted out for snob a voyage, By. and by comes the sudden dawn of a new light. They see as they bad nev er seen before. They speak and. understand 'a new language. Nature has taught them a new lesson, and set it so deeply in the heart that it never can be forgotten. Bo after all it is not a matter of volition. It - comes upon us;—wherq fore, we may not know, and - cannot tell. Then we begin to struggle; to reach out; to eeek after a perfect solution of a problem we may not solve in time ;—and thus it is we find ourselves out upon the open sea. , The sea expresses it.

I s tt:wito to delay the payment of a mere pit tance to some Life Insurance Oompany,when by doing so a handsome competence is secured to ono's family in ease of premature death?

Upon this point: "Hon. John E.

Humphrey, Tioga, Pa,, as requested. Although you say nothing of a slip about the magnificent attractions of "the Travelers," we thought you perhaps intended to elicit ourlcriti. cisme, and we therefore offer them, hoping they may be of some service to you. Please turn to p. 120, of the 14th Mass. Re. port, and you will see that the .Zdje Department of the Travelers was Insolvent Deo. 81, 188.8. Gross Assets, Life Dipt., $328,735 05. Gross Liabilities " " 354,435 79. But ill the Accident Department there was a moderato surplus ($60,052 75) which more than canceled (by $34,352 01) the deficiency in the Life Department. You will observe that on p. 120 and p. 123 of above report, the capital ($600,000,) is included in the assets of the Acci dent Department.. Where then is the "security of the Co." to Life polio) , holders ? Suppose too that the circumstances of the ease were changed, and that the Accident Dept. was insolvent and the Life Dept. had a surplus, would not the Co. pounce on the fends of the Life Dept. to pay for the broken loge and arms? 2d, They claim '.cheapness of the insurance." May not a thing be too cheap ? Does not the in solvency of their Life Dept. prove their insurance too cheap ? How long can they stand cheap rates? Should the insurant ever %orifice securi ty to cheainess? 3d, They say "tbo Mutual Companies charge in their policies a large premium, but make a verbal promise outside of the policy to return in the future some of the overcharged premiums which they call! dividends." The Washington has always stated in the policy that it insured a certain sum "withparticipations iq pro fi ts."

ANDREWS, 'pedal Agent. June 1,1870-4 t. Cleanse the Blood. 111kWITH corrupt or tainted Blood you are sick all over. It may burst out in Pimples, or Sores, or in 'some ac tive disease, or It may merely keep you listless, depressed and good for nothing, But you cannot have good health while your blood is impure.— Agee,' Sarsaparilla purges out these impurities; it expels disease and stimulates the organs on life Into vigorous action. Hence it rapidly cures a variety of complaints which are caused by impurity of tho blood, such as Scrofula, or icing's Evil, Tumors, Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, Boils, St. Authany'a Fire, Rose or Erysipelaii, Totter or Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ring Worm, Cancer or Cancerous Tamers, Sore Eyes, Fomale Diseases, such as Retention, Irregularity; Suppression, Whites, Sterility, also Sy philis or VeneraiDiseases, LiverComplainte, and Heart Diseases. Try Ayer's' Sarsaparilla, and aeo for your self the surprising activity with which it cleanses the blood and °urea these disorders. During late years the public, have been misled by large bottles pretending to give a quart - of Extract of Sarsaparilla for ono dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little,. if any, Sarsaparilla, but often no =Hive ingredient whatever. Hence, bitter disappointments has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the name 'itself has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound, " Sarsaparilla," arid intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. We think we have ground for believing It has virtues which are irresisti ble by the class of diseases it is inteded to cure: We can assure the sick, that we offer tem the best altera tive we know bow to produce, and we have reason to belielv, it is by far the most effectu al puri fi er of the ll u blood Yet discovered. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is so universally known to surpass every other medicine for the cure of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, 'Coarseness, Croup. Bronchittie, In clpiehtConsnmption,. and for therlief of Oonsump• tive Patients in advanced stages of he disease, that it is useless here to recount the evidence of its virtues.— The world knows them: Prepared by Dr. J. 0.
