    gito way to him." We may say this and
do thia, but what wi.l bo the result!
I tell you what the result will bo if
God is iu the future what lie has been in
the past. When we jmt our hand to
the plough, we may look back but God
doe not look back. His plough will go
straight Hi mill stones will grind on.
It Is educating this nation to its own
origional idea that "all men are cre
ated equal" On the condition of car
rying out that ida.t, we hold our inde
pendence, liberty, national life. We
are to bo compelled to be true to it,
sooner or latter j if we choose it will be
eoouer i it we do not choose, it will be
latter. i Wo are God's cliooscn people
to-day. America is the lust continent
the Almighty hat on this earth, on which
to develop mankind they are to bo de
veloped here into his ideas ot justice and
human brotherhood. So, if wo refuse
their rights to this humble, faithful,
gontle affectionate race, God will do with
us as he did with his other chosen peo
ple He chose the Jews three thousand
years ago, to bear the advanced standard
of truth in the woild. They also was
stiff necked and stubborn. They were
disobedient and idoltttrous. So they
were sent into captivity ; so llisy were
ground on tho mills of God i so the plow
.and harrow pas cd over them, till at last
they became obedient to the divine will,
fore time. But when they rejected the
Messiah, they became once moro and
forever a people scattered and peeled.
So it will be with us. This continent
is to bo the homo ot equal rights and
human brotherhood. If this nation re
fuses to do its work its work will be
taken from it, mid gircn to another
which shall bear the fruits thereof hut
the work of tho Lord Khali be done,.
Tbe Jews were Gods chosen people,
not because God gave them moro of the
luxury and comtoi'1 ot this life than he
gave others i for he did not. The Re
runus he made moro powerful j to tho
Egyptians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Per
sums, he g.ivo more luxury ; to the
Greeks more and higher culture. But
the Jews were Gods chosen people, be-,
cause he choso them to bo the leaders,
educators, advanced guard, of tho hu
man race,' in the greatest work to le
done then in the world. But they re
jected their Messiac, because ho came in
a lowly form, a poor iind despised man,
a man ot sorrows and acquainted with
gtief, not having where to lay his head
Then they were cast aside as men cast
into the street to be trampled under foot,
as. the costliest china vase,ns soon as it is
broken and so useless. ; Jesus became
the king of the human race all thu samo ;
but by the hands of others, not theirs.
, So, to-day God's new Messiah comes
to us puce more, in the lowly form of
this despised race, asking that by giving
to it justice, wo niay give to mankind
equality and human brotherhood. We
uro tho chosen people to whom this op
portunity is offered. We may reject the
opportunity j but then we will be cast
into tho street, like a broken useless ves
sel, to be trampled under1 foot of men.
Another people will take our place, and
do our work i for God's kingdom shall
come, and his will shall de done: wheth
er wo hear or whether we forbear.
THE CASE OF COLORADO.
'The Senators elect from Colorado
emphatically deny tho imputation thrown
upon them and members ot Congress to
the effect that there was a political
bargain and agreement to sccuro votes
for" the passage of the bill for the admis
sion of the State. They further say that
their call upon tho President, to which
allusion has been made by some of tho
newspapers, was simply to present such
facts' and documents as show the popu
lation, substantial wealth and permanent
prosperits of Colorado, and had no refer
ence whatever to politics.

OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY.
VOLUME 10.
Our readers will notice that this num
ber begins Volume 10th of our paper,
sinco being published under the head of
the Giikknis County Uki-liii.icas.
Through those past nine years it is un
neci'smry to recount tho many changes,
revolutions and difficulties it has been
subject to. It will suffice to know that
nono of tho former editors have amassed
any very large fortunes, and we greatly
fear that a few have been liko unto the
fellow we hear of who caught the bear
and called for help to let it go. Wo
irii say however, to tho credit of tho
Union men of our county that there is a
vast improvement on their part in sus
taining tho paper in comparison with
wh.it there was six years ago, and we
can say, truthfully there is every pros
pect for a prosperous future. Let us
have continued assurance from our
friends aud we will strive faithfully to
cxeouto our part. Wo do not hesitate in
saying that our paper compares with
most of country journals lor general
and political news, but tho type and
material belonging to tho ollice, are
worn and deficient and need replacing
In order to do this wo call upon all to
aid us in sending the Rhi'cw.ican into
every family in tho county. As Henry
Clay orioo said, wo have the best ot
friends, but there is not enovyh of them.
An exciting and important campaign has
opened, aud the contest will ho one (f
interest. It behoves every man to be
come acquainted with the true Usues
that nro to bo canvassed. Our' enemies
me putting forth mighty effort and it will
require the utmost endeavor on the part
of every truo citizen to thwart their in
sidious designs Our paper will be
sent from this time until after the eleu
tion for Onb Dollar in advance. ,T h ro
will be no butter tune than the present
to subscribe, as you will obtain all con
cerning the vital contest now before tho
people of Pennsylvania. Let every
present subscriber ask his neighbor to
subscribe, and those who aro unable to
tako it, pay for it lor them. One Dol

Fitost a recent letter ot Gen. Quant's
arid sundry intimations thrown out by
him in private conversation with distin
guished gentlemen, we infer that the
General is decidedly opposed to the
President's plan of restoration. His let
ter to Congress urges the immediate pas
sago of a Bill for the reorganization of
the army in such a manner ' that it will
admit of rapid increase in case of neces
sity. He objeots to tho withdrawal of
Federal troops from tho Southern States
on the ground of security to tho people'
of all classes. Would bo glad to sup
press disloyalty in every shape he could
in the North but for the interposition of
tho President. When tho Norfolk, Va.
Post last February said : "there" has
been no such manifestation ot joy and
jubilation in tho South since tho rout of
tho Federal army at Bull Hun as that in
forming us of the President's veto of the
Frcedmah's Burenu Bill", and the Rich
mond Inquirer declared, "to get rid of
strife we must get rid of the negro
there is but one alternative. We must
reduce the negro to slavery or"; we must
exterminate him," General Grant sup
pressed tho papers, but the President re
stored them. They now say he (the Pres
ident,) is our tried and faithful friend.
What does Grant say now. The South
at tho close of tho war wero ready to do
anything, now they consider themselves
masters of the situation.
Tub Fast Day Siskmon. On the out
side. Read it for the sound sense and
legio sot forth. If it is somewhat ultra,
coming as it does from a Southern
source, shows that there are some who
know what should bo done for the pres
ervation of our Union, evon in the
South. ' ' '."

UNION PARTY VS. CONSERVATIVE.
Midst the turmoils and strife of pol
itical warfare surging from coast to coast
of our continent it is a pleasure as well
as a duly for every true American citi
zen that feels an interest iu the ntf.urs of
our nation to take for himself n retro
spect, to examine with accuracy nr.d
wiihout prijudice thu past record ol
both parties and present standing of
each. It is a source ot gratification, a
feeling that causes the bosom to heave
with grateful emotion in every Union
man of our laud, when ho contemplates
the just policy and course pursued by
loyal men during tho recent fiery ordeal
through which wo have passed. Its
unwearied fidelity to tho government,
through trials gigaulio and almost over
whelming endear the name of Union to
every heart. Although familliar. as the
nursery rhymo to "every intelligent
reader, it is a thomo which the ablest
cannot find language to depict. Its
praises will continue to be sung by gen
erations yet unborn, Wo stand to-day
as we stood when tried in the fearful cru
cible of civil war. liver upholding the
true principles of Constitutional and
democratic government willing if need
be to sustain them with our lives. The
politic.il stand point is more than ever
encouraging. Tho Mobile (Ala ) Nation
alist says :
Tho personnel iff tho party is remark
able. In the North, it comprises with
in its ranks niuetecu-twcuiielhs of tho
members ot all Protestant churches, ex
cepting the Episcopalians and a largo
majority of the members of that, denom-
inaiion ; almost the entire membership
of all moral or benevolent associations;
four fifths of the literati, professional,
men, teachers, etc., three-fourths of the
returned soldies : a large portion of the
prominent business men especially mi
ners, manufacturers and bankers, and
certainly a decided majority of the farm
i"o population. Ever since its forma,
tion this party has boon growing with
amazing rapidity, and its accessions
have been principally fiom tho above
classes, which do not uhnngo easily
until now it controls every Northern
State including Missouri.
Such is the party which Copperhead
journals berate with their coarsest of
epithets, the vilest of abuso. This being
the element which compose tho Union
party what composition can tho socalled
Conservative Party claim? Senator
Wilson in a ro e.itspteJi speaks thus ;
'Let conservative gentlemen who aro
over boastfully vaiintiui of their conserv
atism remember that the crimo onanist
liberty, against justice, and against hu
manity that have marked the past thirty
years in America, wero committed in

Osk glaring inconsistency' in the
President's veto of the Colorado Bill, is,
thiit ho arrays himself against die admis
sion into tho Union of a State which
contr.buted four regiments to tho Uuion
armies, and, which by it own eflort
rescued New Mexico from the enemy.
Huttrysto force into Congress, eleven
States that fur tour years fought against
theUmon with a desperation ot which his
tory shows no parallel. ' Ho would have
us take back Florida with no more popu
lation than Colorado, whose record is
wholly rebellious, whilst he vetoes a bill
to admit Colorado.

PROSCRIPTION OF REliELS
The proposition to exclude for four
years from a voice in tho Federal Gov
eminent those w ho were guilty of nt
tompting.lo overthrow that Government
and disrupt tho Union, is received with
shrieks of horror by tho Copperheads
generally. We do not favor tho policy
of disfranchisement, simply bocanse we
deem general efilYanchiseinont every
way preferable; but it is a fact, abun
dantly established, that tho Rebels, had
they succeeded, would have disfiauchis
cdtho Southern' Unionists, not tempora
rily, but for all time. This truth docs
not rest on such testimony us Gov Wisu's
alone. There is ample corroboration
from various quarters. .
In February, 1SG3, the leading Con
federates ot West Virginia issued from
Richmond an address "To tho People
of North Western Virginia," urging
ihcm to tako ground for tho Southern
Confederacy. In this manifesto, they
say:
" The North can vever co iquer the
South. Neither wilt the South ever con
sent U a restoration of the Union. An
inhuman attempt to subjugate a brave
free, enlightened and Christian people,
cm fw te fonjiven or forgotten. The
atrocities of the North in prosecuting
this war, and a desperate attempt to
invoke sorvile insurrection, have placed a
fiery gulf ot hatred between tho two
countries. Tho separation which was
forced by fanaticism has been confirmed
by ferocious tolly. It is not thu South
which will have to regret the consequen
ces. "As certainly as the atrocious Fchome
of subjugation is destined to tail, jii!-t so
certainly will every inch of the soil ot
Virginia remain under iier jurisd ction.
The entire South will be conquered or
all Virginia will bo free- By. solemn re
solves, the Confederate aud Slate Gov
ernments stand pledged never to sun un
der any part ot the Slate. They w 11 be
prompted by every motive of inteiest
and of honor to redeem tho pledge til all
hazards.
"We do not address ourselves to those
who have eagerly engaged with the
enemy to subjugato or dismember our
venerable Commonwealth They have
cio?en to abide the event 'u war in which
they have taken the part of traitors and
tlvij must, abide by it, If you havo
not ull noted with equal firmness, wo
are gratified to believe (as wo hsvo many
reasons for believing) that a largo major
ity ot the citizens of North-Western
Virginia have cherished a loyal attach,
incut to tho Slato, ami that they abhor
treason and trait on. We know how to
make due allowance for the cruel necess
ities oi your situation. While some of
us wee ublo to retire to places where we
could servo thu cause ot the South, ami
several thousand have joined our armies,
it is just to remomber that a whole coins
inanity so great as ours could not with-
! draw into tho interrior, nor could they
ulono resist the powerful Status on their
i borders. Many were hampeieJ by
I poverty, or charged with tho cure ot
families, or detained at home by other
obstacles which could not be overcome.
Being compelled to remain, their sub
mission could be enforced by arms -Mere
submission to irresistible forco will
not be imputod to them as a crime.
Voluntary and corrupt complicity with
treason an nuvku be excused by any cir
cumstance."
This manifesto is signed by Chas. W.
Russell, Robert Johnston, Thomas S.
Raymond, Gideon D. Camden, Joseph
Johuson, William L. Jackson, ami ten
other ot tho leading Confederates whose
homes were in West Virginia It proves
that, betjro Virginia would join thu
Confederacy, bore rulors exacted a secret
but solemn treaty stipulation that no
poice should ever be made with tho
Uuion that did not put loyal West
Virginia under the feat and subject it to
the vongeanuo ol the pro-Slavery traitors
east of the mountains It proves, more
over, that it was the settled Rebol policy
to disfranchise and punish nU "voluntary"
Unionists. Tho tables being turned,
you see, thoy sing a very different nne
in 1830 from that to which thuir pipes
wero pitched in' 1803. Tri. ''',..
HitNitr A. vVisc made a spoooh last
week in Alexandria to a large audience
whom lie joooscly addressed several
times as "my dear traitors" and "fellow
