DEMOCRATIC JUBILEE
-And—
Buck Roast!
There will be a
DEMOCRATIC JUBILEE AND
DUCK-ROAST,
AT WALL'S HOTEL, IN TUNK
HANNOCK,
ON FBiMY, NOV. 7, 1352,
For the purpose of Celebrating the Tri
umphant and Glorious Demo 4
eratic Victories in Penn-'
sylvania and
elsewhere.
The following named Gentlemen
will participate in the Festivities, and
deliver addresses on the occasion :
Hon. E. B. Chase,
Col. V. E. Piolette,
Ira. C. Mitchel, and
Cal'bE. Wright, Esqs
Judge Barnard and the Whit of Habeas
Corpus.
A special correspondent of the Philadel
phia Inquirer, writing from New York <<n
the 2nd inst. says :
Judge Barnard in the Supreme o<>urt
Chamber, this morning, delivered himself as
follows:— Writs of habeas corpus had been
sued out on behalf of two or three 6oldiers,
who, it is contended, were illegally detained
by Colonel Duryea, at his Zouave encamp
ment,-oil Staten Island. The writs were
iftade fetufnable at 10 o'clock A. M.
For some reason or other, the soldiers did
not make their appearance, whereupon his
Honor declared that the men must be pro
duced on Monday, or else he w.iuld resort to
ineans to enforce the writ. He did not want
fo interfere in military matters ; he did not
want to obstruct enlistments; on the con
trary, he would rather encourage them, but
rieVeitheless, these writs must be respected.
There was still power enough in this city to
carry out the requirements or the civil law,
and it should to enforced, 'f he had to call
ttpon the whole Democratic party for assist
ance. In rase of a further refusal, ne could
point out away, provided by statute, which
would bring sufficient assistance t<> produce
fhe soldiers here by force. In reply to a
query whether the President had not sus
pended the writ of habeas corpus, in Rich
mond county, Judge Barnard replied that he
(Barnard) intended to restore it, and that
the people themselves would rest' re il next
"Tuesday."
It is to be regretted in these times, when
men are arrested by hundreds, and hurried
off to Some tort or dungeon, upon ihe most
frivuMw pretences that trie re are not more
Judges-of tlie Same stripe ~f Judge Barnard
Within the pa<n Week we ha'v had accounts
of the arrest and seizure of ihe papers o| a
Committee in Baltimore composer? of highly
respectable citizens, no were engaged in in
vestigating the army frauds perpetrated'in
that Vicinity. Also of the arrest of a distin
guished lawyer in St. Lquis, who in a speech
dared to speak in unfavorable terms of the
currency furtiifched by the government. 01
another in the same city, who said he ilo ught
the late emancipation proclamation illtimed
tod unaffective. Also the Rev. Charles A.
Hay, a distinguished Lutheran divine of Har
risbtlrg, vftio, in a letter Complained that our
wotfnefed and sick soldiers were not allowed
to be taken' home t<v tneir friends for atten
tion to their wants ; while ihe relief prison
ers in Baltimore were allowed ihat privilege.
These are a few of the arrests thai have
come to our notice wiihin In* past week.—
Hundreds of men are arrested every month
tipon Charges equally frivtlous, or upon none
at all, and are now confined in forts and mili
tary prisons. TCthey ask the '' nature and
Ckuseof their accusation," if they ask a
" trial by a jury of their count v," as under
fhe coiwtitirtiow and laws,- they have the
tight to- do.- They are coopy fohl that " the
Writ of Habeas Corpus- is suspended f 1 The
shoulder strapped gentry in charge of these
places refuse to recognise the civil atHhuri
ties. This tampering with the Constitutional
rights of freemen, has been Carried quite fo<
fcr, and we are glad that one judge, at feasi,
is derermined U see that they shad be in
spected. The people are prepared for a re
turn to the guaranties of the constitution and
the laws, and should and will support the ju
diciary in their efforts to restore them.
Theftj are now 250 rebel prisoners

those captured at Winehester, by General
Shields.
Our Foreign Relations.
The following information—'" very impor
tant, if true s ' —appeared in the New York
Eaqprest of Monday. We do not believe it;
but, even if true, we do hot think it will have
much, if any, effect in hastenihg a settlement
of our domestic difficulties; in fact it will be
fflore likely to have a corttrar}' tendency, and
prolong and add to the bitterness of the war.
We give the article for precisely its market
value :
Reliable information has been received in
this city from semi-official sources in Europe,
that England and France are of entire accord
in regard to their line of conduct towards
this government. Lord Lyons, who was to
have returned to the United States in the
Australasian, was detained at the last mo
ment by order of Lord John Russel, (Her
Majesty's Secretary for Foreign Affairs,) to
await further instructions, in consequence of
the President's abolition proclamation.
His lordship's departure was then fixed for
October 25, (last Saturday,) and on his arriv
al at Washington, lie will positively inform
Mr Seward of the programme decided upon
by the European Powers. Instructions simi
lar to those of the British Minister will be
forwarded to Count Mercier, the French Min
ister, at Washington, with the same steamer
which will bring the English Minister back
to this country.
We are also given to understand that our
government will soon be informed that Eng
land and France hare decided upon the rec
ognition of the S uthern Confederacy, if the
joint offers of meditation and armistice to be
proposed to Mr. Seward are not accepted.—
At any rate, this government will be duly
notified of the intentions of England and
France, in this respeot, and as these Powers
are fully aware that any offer of meditation
on the basis of separation will not for an in
stant even be listened to by our government,
united endeavors will then be made by all
the European ambassadors in Washington to
obtain an armistice of four or six months be
tween North and South.
These foreign governments are under the
impression that if once a cessation of hostili
ties can be effected, a calmer spirit will suc
ceed, which will enable the two sections to
negotiate. The utmost endeavors will be
made shortly after Lord Lyons'return to Wash
ington, by the whole corps diplomatique at
Washington, to brtng about such au armis
tice. Only then, when all these offers of
meditation and armistice shall have proved of
no avail, will the South be recognized simul
taneously by England and France.
Aside from the fact that these Powers
would now look upon ihe South as a defac
to government, they fear that an insurrection
of the slaves in the South as a consequence
of the late emancipation proclamation will
t-'Ke p.ace after the Ist of January—and
hence, in order to afford protection to their
own citizens residing there, are compelled to
grant protecting p.>\ve to their agents in the
several southern cities, winch, as things stand
just now, th y do not possess. 0
They kar that the confederate government,
unrecognized a--: it is, may at any time tell
their Consuls in Charleston, Richmond, Sa
vannah and elsewhere, that there is no di
plomatic relation existing between the con
federacy and Europe, and can therefore not
permit them to act in a consular capacity.—
It is to guard against such an emergency,
afid to afford their own citizens residing in
the South ample pretection under the mgis of
their regularly appointed agents, that Eng
lafrd and France wdl ciaim the necesity of
recognising the new confederacy.

din* i- ihe voice of the ages in the weighty
words of l)e Tocqueville :
*' Ilithertou, wherever the whites have been
the most powerful, they hare maintained the
blacks in a subordinate or a sercille position:
WHEREVER TIIE NEGROES HAVE BE£li THE
STRONGEST THEY HAVE DESTROTED THE
WHITES. Suck has been the only retribution
which hag ever taken place between the two
races"
OUT UM statesmen and patriots saw and
felt all this, and hence plead for the policy of
gradfta! emancipation, with education and
preparation for freedom and colonization, to
occupy generations, and thus safely release
the country of slavery. Modern fanatics and
demagogues have rushed wildly on to the fe
rocious* measure of immediate emancipation
by the point of the bayonet.
The Easton Artfus says, " ft is singular but,
ii"t unnatural fact that every county that was
tori m the revolution, such a* Lancaster,
Chester, Delaware, &c., are abolition now.
On the contrary, every county that warmly
sustained the patriot cause in the revolution
now upholds the Democratic party. The de
scendants of the men, who under the infamous
rifle of old John Adams, supported the des
potism, alien and sedition haws, gag law,
stamp and window taxes, imprisonment of
Democrats, and all other obnoxious measures
of that odii-us administration, now sustain all
the obnoxious measures of the present Ad
ministration, including negro proclamations,
Fort Lafayette and all. There's a great deal
m the blood and breed of men. Men whose
fathers were tories in revolutionary days nev

The Di aft in Pennsylvania
The Pittsburg papers of Saturday contain
the following item:
Theft is a " Bpeck of war 3 ' on the horizon.
The drafted militia of Saltlick and Bullskin
townships, Fayette county, have determined
to resist the conscription, and have set at defi
ance the orders of the commissioners to re
port themselves to Camp Howe. Under these
circumstanses Col. Collins, of Uniontown, was
dispatched to this city, with authority to ob
tain the services of a sufficient number of
troops to enforce the law and compel obedi
ence to the orders of the draft commissioner.
He arrived here last evenin? by railroad, and
we presume that an armed force will be sent
up to capture and subdue the " rebels,"-if
they do not yield ; and it is h>>ped that they
will see their folly before the bloody scenes
which were witnessed in Luzerne county are
re-enacted in Fa}ette.
The townships of Bullskin and Saltlick ate
mountain districts, and it is said that a log
fort has been constructed in an eligible posi
tion, and that the men are determined to fight
rather than surrender. The difficulty is said
to have originated in the fact that these dis
tricts did not get proper credit ftr the volun
teers that they have furnished, and hence the
draft is pronounced unfair and illegal. Grant
ing this to be true, they are taking a wrong
course to secure their rights, and they had
better desist in time.
A letter from Treraont, Schuylkill county
of the 25th says:
There is reason to believe that some of the
complaints in regard to the enrollment in
Schullkiil countj are well founded. A com
mittee Was appointed bv the citizens,
and was 6ent to Frank Hughes and Mr.
Buckalew for legaj advice, who advised
them not to resist the draft on account of the
alleged informalities, but to test its constitu
tionality afterwards on a writ of habeas cor
pus. This course will be pursued. Oth:r
parties have consulted Governor Curtin, who
does not appear to be certain whether the
drafted men can be sent out of the State.
The quota of Schuylkill county was sixteen
hundred. It is an undeniable fact that in
townships where the draft has already taken
place, the victims immediately absconded, and
it is extremely doubtful whether the sixteen
hundred will all be obtained.
Poor Forney*
Forney, whose profligate Judas Work was
repudiated in this State—Forney, who wres
tled alternately with the soul of John Brown
and bad brandy on the night of the election,
is now calling on what he terms " Douglas
Democracy" in New York to " save or pei ish."
Poor Forney, the shadows of gloom and dark
ness seem to thicken up.>n him in proportion
as he sinks into that " lawless deep" to which
his debauchery and moral depravity have ta
ken him. " Douglas democracy 1" The soul
of a toad would contain more of it than For
ney can control in the American Union. Let
him call upon Baal, for he u.ay be absent"
" or sleeping" with the soul of his sainted cut
throat of whom he sings. Alas, poor Forney,
he is hunting a traitorous prostitutes reward,
and he will find it at the end of his face
Sunbury Democrat.
The iieit United Stales Senators
The democrats are in the majority on joint
ballot of one. This secures a United States
Senator, unless the game of high-handed bri
bery is again played. We are glad to see a
determined sentiment on this question. Let
the brited and the briber meet a fearful retri"
but ion. It is time that this infamous system
was ende i. Great priucipl, s are at stake?
and the man, who now either gives or takes a
bribe, commits and infamous crime not only
against the elective franchise and the best in
terest of our country. Lert it be understood
that the infamous scoundrels who would thus
barter the priceless interests of a free people,
shall know what retribution means.
C. L v ALLANDiG-HA.>f.— It is probable that
Yallandigham has been defeated for congress,
by about 250 majority. F.ven this result is a
triumph, for after his last election to congress,
the Black Republicans jerretuandcred his dis
trict so as to make a majority of over 5.000
against him. This huge majority Mr. Yallan
digham has reduced to 250. If the Demo
crats of Ohio have a majority in the Legisla
ture, which is probable, they ought to, elect
Yallandigham to the United States Senate in
place of old Ben Wade, whose term will ex
pire on the 4th of next March.
GENERAL CASS' OPINION. —The Detroit Free
Pi ess derrie.'?, on the authority of General Cass
himself, the story thart has been going the
rounds of the Abolition papers, that he (Cass)
approves of the President's Emancipation
Proclamation.—The old patriot and statesman
says : " 2 here, is no power in the Executive,
under the Constitution' to decree the emanci
pation of sluresP The Abolition paper, how
ever, will not have the honesty or candor to
give publicity to this contradiction.
Tlie Changes in Congress.
The following is about the result for Con
gress in the four States named, alhough ; t
may be changed in one or two districts by
the official vote :
Proscnt Congress. Next Congress.
Dem, Abo. Item. Abo. Ind.
Pennsylvania 8 17 12 10 2
Ohio 9 12 14 5 0
Indiana 4 4 7 4 0
lowa 0 2 0 6 0
21 38 r 33 25 2
This exhibits a Democratic gain of 12 mem
bers. Under the new census, Pennsylvania
loses one member and Ohio two, and lowa
gains four.
It is understood that extensive pre
parations are making in Washington for the
900.000 Greeley Wide Awakes who have
waited for the Proclamation before springing
to arms. The beef, biscuit and glory awaits
them.— Procidencc Post,
Ye Gallant Aleck McClure.
The two great Alecks of this State have
been knocked hors du combat. Aleck Cum
rtfings was defeated because he swindled the
soldiers, and Aleck McClure surrendered his,
natite toWn to the rebels without firing a
gun. There is no difference between these
two Alecks —they are politic Siamese twins
and probably they are two of the most cor
rupt men in the United States. McClure has
been working for the last two years for the
Gubernatorial chair. l!is cowardly surrend
er of Chambersburg has 60 thoroughly dis
gusted his own party that it treats htm with
scorn and derision. The Washirigton Corres
pondent of the Chicago Times pours a volley
of hot shot into him after this fashion :
•' The man who marched out with a flag of
truce to surrender Chambersburg was Alex
ander McClure, the very fellow who in Phila
delphia last week made a speech to a crowd
of Abolitionists, in which he expounded the
whole theory of war according to Wendell
Phillips, advocated inarchiDg at once on the
enemy, giving them no quarter j and in short,
gave his audience to understand that himself
and a half dozen of his own political kidney
could march against Lee, annihilate him be
fore breakfast, and reach Richmond in time
for dinner. A squad of ragged horsemen ap
proached the town, and instead of shouldering
his shot gun, and dying in defence of his cause
as he was very willing to do in theory on a
Philadelphia stump, he takes a white flag and
and goes out two miles to meet the enemy
and surrender the town,—the very last tnan
ready for fight, the very first ready for a sur
render."
And we can add that while ye gallant Mc-
Clurc was entertaining some of the rebel offi
cers at his blazing fire-side, a gang of marau
ders stole ten of his horses. The State will
have to pay 7 for the horses, so that, after all,
McClure loses nothing but his nomination for
Governor. llow would ye gallant Alleck
like to he charged with a sneaking sympa
thy with rebellion, on the ground of his so
hospitably entertaining the rebels at his own
homestead 1 But that would be imputing a
wrong motive to him. The truth really is,
that Aleck was terribly frightened, that he
did not dare to be otherwise than a hale fel
low-well met with the invaders.— Mercury.
Gen. Cas3' View 011 the President's Procla
mation.
The Detroit Free Press, of October 11th,
has the following in one of its editorial col
umns :
We are requested by General Cass to say
that the letter which ha< just been published
in the Chicago Tribune , from Mr. Eastman,
of that place, requires correction. That gen
tleman called upon General Cass, and a con
versation to k place upon various topics, in
which opinions were freely expressed. This
conversation, at least on the part of General
Cass, was not expected to he transferred to
the newspapers, and should no- have been
without his permission. He would, however
have had no objection to the publication had
his sentiments been correctly understood and
reported.
At that interview; among other things ]\fr.
Eastman intieduced the President s pr<>cla
mat ion. and the subject was somewhat dis
cussed. Mr. Eastman supposes General Cass
to have expressed his approbation of that
| measure. This is a mistake, tn the few re
marks he made upon the . reclamation, Gen.
Cass expressed himself favorably as to the
views and intentions of the President, but
observed, that in his opinion, there was no,
power in the Executive, under the Constitu
tion, to decree the emancipation of slaves,
though, as a war measure, wherever it be
came necessary in the operation of our forces
against the rebels to free the s!aves< it was
competent for the President to direct it to be
done.
Swindling the Soldiers.
The Northampton Gazette says it has good
authority for the following statement :—'• A
soldier was taken sick and 6ent to the hos
pital. When he began to recover, he craved
some little delicacy to soothe his nauseated
palate, and asked for some currant jeily.—
He was told that lie could have the jelly, but
he must pay Sor it. He could have a pot of
jelly for two dollars. He had but two dol
lars in his pocket, and with that he was in
hopes of reaching his home, as soon as he
was able to travel. He told his attendant
that he had but two dollars and that he did
not need the whole jar ofjelly, a small parr,
would be sufficient. No, he must take the
whole or none, and he must pay two dollars
for it. Finally the invalid bought the jelly,
and on removing the covering he discovered
to his astonishment, within the wrapper a
note directed to himself, and that this very
jar of jelly had been sent by his own family
to him. This is but one among the many
outrages perpetrated by the unprincipled men
who are found in our army."
This is only one case in a thousand where the
poor sick soldier is defrauded ofliltlecomforts
kindly furnished him by the generous hearts
of the nation. Most of the delicacies 6ent to
camp are in this way made to benefit the
blood-thirsty contractors that have acquired
positions by their loud professions of loyalty.
The government should track these soldier
hillers and mete out a punishment commeas
urate with the crime committed. Talk about
spies when you have such spirits mingling in
the Federal army ; men who would do this,
would sell a nation for a consideration.
NEW FRAUD— Five dollar bills, purport
ing to be issued by the Clinton Bank of Penn
sylvania, are in circulation. The notes are
altered from the broken Clinton Bank, of Ma
ryland, are well engraved and have a railroad
train on upper centre. There is no bank of
that name in Pennsylvania.
JC3T The story that is going the rounds
of the papers that General Cass approves of
the President's Emancipation Proclamation,
is very good—only it is not true. The Gen
eral don't thmk the Proclamation constitu
tional. •
"The Grand National Hymn#"
We have been looking very anxiously over
the Republican papers for the appearance of
the Abolition " Grand National Ilymn," so
pronounced by John W. Forney, at the aboh
tidfi* jubilee in Philadelphia, on Tuesday night
after the election, whin he announced to
Abraham Lincoln that Pennsylvania had giv
en 50,000 majority for the Abolition ticket.
Why don't they publish it ? Forney endorses
it; the party in Philadelphia sing it—Mayor
Henry refused to be heard until the Baud
and choristers came tc him at the request of
Forney, singing
"John Brown's body lies mouldering in the grave,''
then heiesponded. Certainly such authori
ty, such endorsement, should procure a place
in the columns of the " loyal" press fr>r l{ the
Grand Mitioiial Hymn." We ai'e disposed
to bfe liberal. If they will hot publish it wc
will; and all we ask in return is, that they
will publish the " Democratic Grand Nation
al Hymn" the " Star Spangled Banner."

Broken Promises;
How often has the country been assured
that the war wou'd be closed in " thirtv."
'' sixty"' and *' ninety' days ? Mr. Seward
has certainly given the country this assur
ance three or four different tunes : and when
we remember that Mr. Seward is the man
whom General Scott assund, on the 3d ot
March. 18oi the dor before Mr. Lincoln and
Mr. Seward assumed their positions at the
head of the Government—that it would take
" three years''' to conquer the South, these
promises, or predictions, of Mr. Seward, tnust
appear the more extraordinary. One would
suppose that a man who had been as much
in public life as Mr. Seward—iivt us in coin
niunicalion with Southern then, and having
spent part of his early life in the South
would not need to be told that the rebel*
could not be conquered in either of the peri
ods named by him ; but that his own reason
and unaided judgment should tfeafcb him to
the contrary. If hy were these predictions
made ? Did any body believe them ? Or
did any body believe that Mr. Seward was
sincere ? For our part, we think that all dec
larations, made by persons at the head of our
public affairs, and whose positions give them
a national or official character, are just so
many stains upon our national reputation.
Those, like Mr. Seward, who make them, are
nut trilling with the people—playing up >n
their credulity. It cannot be that such men
can be so much mistaken. This would he
presuming too much upon their ignorance.—
Any school boy should know better.
Is it any wonder, then, thai the patience
of the people is exhausted ? Is it any won
der that murmurs are beginning to be heard
in erefy camp, and that it requires all the
tact and skill of such chieftains as McClellan
to prevent these murmurs finding utterance
and leading to their natural consequences ?
Those " thirty," and '* sixty," and " ninety"
days of Mr. Seward have now reached almost
six hundred , and the prospect for the end of
the war is about as flattering as it was at the
beginning.
Singular Delusion.
Gold is now worth, in New York, from
•SI 38 to SI 38. This is what the newspa
pers tell us. But every man of sense knows
that gold is, in reality, worth no m >re now
than it was before the war, deducting, per
haps, a trifle for the expense and risk of tran3
portation in foreign exchange transactions
This apparent advance in the prices of gold is
not because its intrinsic value has increased,
but because other values, being to a large ex
tent fictitious, have deprecated. To say,
therefore, that gold—being the standard of
value in this country—has increased one
third in value, is a misrepresentation ; but to
say that our government funds, and our pa
per currency, have decreased one-third in
value, would be telling the truth.
The attempt of the New York brokers to
delude the people as to this fact, by striking
gold transactions from their official lists, is in
perfect character with the manifold delusions
of the times, and will be about as effective in
regulating the worth of gold as was the
<r Pope's Jjull against the comet.''
