C|t Jlraocrat, HARVEY SICKLER, Editor. TUNKHANNOCK, PA Wednesday, Nov. 2 9, 1865. Adverddvg Agents. We find in a large number of our late ex changes complaints of the shabby tricks and . deceptinas practiced upon them by bogus newspaper advertising agents. Most of these notices point directly to sr-zr MATHER & Co No. 335, BROADWAY, N. Y. the most impudent of this class of Impostors Having had some experience, ourselves with this firm, we take great pleasure in bearing testimony to the sublime impudence, the un blushing mendacity and utter worthlesness of the concern. Such another set of mean, rascally, lying, irresponsible, scapegraces can not be found outside the .vails of any peni tentiary in the country. N. B —The thieves and other felons inside of any ol these places, if they knew—as many of them must—the members of this swind ling shop with whom they are inforentially compared.would doubtless feel greatly wrong- , ed by the comparison. We know we make a lame apology ar.d pay them a doubtful com pliment when we say that in the opinion ol tnost newspaper publishers of this region tbey are gentle men when compared with Ms'her & Co. Pass 'em around. Trlumph.of Republican Principles in Ja maica, We hate been carefully watching the Re publican press to see what policy would guide its discussion of the negro publican pol itics in Jamaica. One would be led to think, from the perusal of the Tribune, Times, For ney' Press , and other Republican journals, that a sort of drunken brawl has occurred in •ome town in that Island, which the police bad suppressed in a few minutes. Notwithstanding the most reliable informa tion is received by every mail of the murder ing, to r turing, burning, and other unheard of cruelties, committed by the negroes on the white women and children and men in va rious parts of Jamaica, the Republican paper? only notice it as an " outbreak ." When tv hear that these negro fiends have been organ ised and drilled by leaders, who no doubt have been instigated to their deeds and plans i by these very Republican journals, it is no , wonder the advocates of "equal rights," and ; the "political rights," which the negro is en- ; titled to who "fights," should be stupidly J dumb on considering the consequences of their preaching and teaching. We have been told by the Republican press that the negro is equal to the white man "if he had a chance." In jatna ca, for thirty years, the negro has been educatid in schools, • taught to read and write, been subject to no disqualification on "account of color." lie has bad social and political equality for years; he has the right of franchise, been eligible to office ; all the rights which the negro-publi can party in t'uis country ask for the negro I here. Yet, after years of such advantages and privileges, he is still the negro —cruel, ' relentless, brutal. We defy history to show ! more diabolical character than this Ripubli- ■ can coup W etat in Jamaica has manifested.! AH that has been.done for the negro ; his emancipation bv England, his humanitarian treatment by its laws and pol cy, his invest ment with 6ocial and political rights, has left him unfit for any other relation than n super vised and controlled condition. Nay !in the the light of the burning homes of the white man, in the agonie6 of bis death, in the cruel* : ties to his defenceless wife, sister, mother ; and daughter, which negro equality has at j last exhibited in Jamaica, as its legitimate consequnces, we assert that the negro must be a subjugated tace. Justice, humanity, God, has so ordained it. When Simon Cameron addressed tho "nig ger soldiers" at his mansion the other day,he did not refer to the Republican victory in 1 Jamaica, which negroes, with arms had ac complished. No. Why is it that Greeley, Forney, Raymond, Stevens, Sumner and 'he negro-publicans,are so mute over the tri umph ot their principles and friends in Ja maica 7 Why is it ? Can it have any influ ence in preventing the triumph if outrage in the organization of the House of Representa tives at Washington in December next 1 We assert that the negro publican press have avoided all mention of the victory of their Jriends and principles aud policy in JAMAICA, for fear it will interfere with the triumph of the swae friends a• d principles and policy in organizing the House of Repre sentatives at WAsniNuton. If needs be, rather than obey the Consti tution and admit the States of the South, Stanton's negro troops will be called t.pon to celebrate the J?maicaism of negro publican politics at Washington. To such a state of anarchy and revolution has the violation of the Constitution by the Republican party brought upon our country and the white tnan ! God of Heaven ! ?ave the liberties of this people I'alriot df Un i j t on. r* The people living in the vicinity of Richmond having suffered greatly from the depredations of soldiers, the military author Jities have appointed a commission to iuvesti ' gate .the matter. JCy During the latter part of October the deaths from Cholera, in Seville, Spain, exceeded one hundred and fifiy daily,although two thirds of the population had left the fllty. Court Proceedings, The new term of C -urt for thia County commenced at this place on monda) the 20th inst. H'a William Etwell President Judge, and Nathan Mil s and J. Y. Smith "nssociata Judges were in attendance. Owing to the had state of tbe weather, there was' not as lull an attendance as is usual for this Term ; but the small attendance did not seetn to di minish the business of tbe court as there was au average amount transacted. The following bills were iepresented te the Grand Jury and was disposed of by them as follows. Com. vs. William Thompson and Charles Thompson— Indictment Larceny— Robert Myres Proa. True Bill. Com. vs. JohnM, Carney—lndictment're ceiving illegal votes. J. W. Crawford Pros. True Bill. Com. vs. James„Bunnell —lndictmenn re ceiving illegal votes. J. W. Crawford Pros. True Bill. Cum. r*. George Shippoy—lndictment Lar ceny—Martha Townsend Pros. True Bill. Com. vs. Patrick Stafford—lndictment as sault and Battery. William Riley Fro?. Bill ignored—Pros, to pay costs. Cum. rB. Daniel Bartrou—lndictment as sault and Battery. Pros. Phebe Bartron Pros. Truo Bill. Cum. vs. William Bardwell—lndictment assault and Battery upon an officer. Ahira Gay Pros. True Bill. Com. vs. Riley Robinson—lndictment Re jecting legal votes at election. Samuel Spen cer Pros. Bill ignored and Pros, pay costs. Com. vs. Ludd Shoemaker—lndictment as sault and Battery. Lydia A. Rogers Pros, Bill ignored and Pros, pay costs of prosecu tion. After examining the public buildings the grand Jury reported that they found the County Jail in an unsafe and dilapidated condition, and recommended that a new one be built, they also recommend some few re pairs upon the Court House. As there have now two consecutive Grand Juries reported in favor of building a new Jail, it is hoped that our present board of commissioners will have sufficient regard for the interest and credit of the County to take immediate meas ures, ia accordance with the frequently ex pressed wishes of the people, to have the miserable hovel removed, which now spoils the public square and disgraces the county ; and have a Jail erected which shall answer the demands of Justice without violating the principles of humanity, and which shall be creditable to the County and indicative of the public spirit and enterprise of the people. The foil owing is a part.al list of cases which were disposed of by the court. Charles Thompson being brought before the couit pled guilty to the charges of horse stealing which was'preferred against him by Robert Myres ; whereupon the court sen tenced him to pay a fine of one hundred and seventy five dollars to the commonwealth, the costs of prosecution and to restore the property stolen if not already done, to Rob ert Myres or to pay him the value thereof ; and also to undergo an imprisonment by sol itary confinement at labor in the penitentiary fur the eastern district of Pennsylvania for the term of one year and ten months. In this case the court directed that the County pay to Samuel Jenkins, who arrested the said Charles Thompson and captured the bur e stolen by biro, the ejveral sums which the law bs paid for such ser vice. Samuel W. Earl rs Catharine Stang and F. W. 11. Slang Sci. Fas. Tried by Jury and verdict of $280,75 given for plaintiff. C. F.

In this case after the Judge had given hie charge to the Jury the plaintiff took a non suit. Cum. vs. Daoiel Bartron—lndictment as sault and Battery, Phebe Bartron Pros. The Jury fcuDd defendant guilty, and the Court sentenced him to pay a fine of twenty five dollars and the costs of Prosecution. Com. vs. James Bunnell—lndictment re ceiving and taking illegal votes, J. VV. Craw-* ford Pius. This case arose from taking the vote of John Davis who had served over two years in the army and held a commission un der the government and who was an alieu by birth and had never been naturalized, but claimed a right to vote under act of congress and proclamation of the President relating to aliens serving in the army of the United Slates. It was admitted by the Coun6e' and declared by the court in his charge to the Jury that there was no law as'ciaimed giving an alien the right to vote without first being naturalized according to law. The Ju ry returned, after some time 6pent in delib eration, with a verdict, defendant not guilty bui pay the costs of prosecution. Asa S. Dana r. Tunkhunnock Bridge Co.

After the jury had been sworn and several witnesses examined, tho defendant withdrew plea and judgment given for plaintiff. Ou Friday noon, court adjourned. At a meeting of physicians in Wash : ngton on Thursday of last week, to adopt measures against the cholera, it was shown that at the last visit of the pestilence to that city as many died with medical attendance as without it' President Buchanan's Vlndlcatiou, •" [From the New York World.] We pfiut without curtailment the eighth, the ninth, and the eleventh chapters of Mr. Buchanan's book, giving the history of the last eventful months of his administration.— Fruta. want of space .we reluctantly omit the intervening tenth chapter, making a chasm in the continuity of that part of the book which relates to and refutes the charges of reprehensible negligence and feebleness in his failure to confront the nascent rebellion with a strong display of military menace and preparation. Mr. Buchanan's hook contains a rapid discussion of the causes which led to the rebellion, and an ample one of the ineffec tual measures attempted in the memorable winter of 1860-61 for its peaceful prevention. We will not offer even a slight skeleton of this part of its contents, which relate to events on which men will continue to dilfer, and which do aot concern the reputation of Mr. Buchanan more than of hundreds of others. But the charges discussed in the striking chapters, we reproduce are met by such an overwhelming array of evidence, that they can never be repeated by persons hav ing aoy pretensions to truth. The patience with which Mr. Buchanan has oubmitted.to obloquy when he had such means of vindication, is accounted for in his preface by his unwillingness, while* the war lasted, to do anything which might embarrass President Lincoln. His book was written soon after his retirement from the Presiden cy. Had he been taken away, its posthu mous publication would have vindicated his memory ; but wc congratulate him that he has livrd to publish it himscif, in time to re ceive from his coniemporaries that justice) whiclFwill be done him by history. Mr. Buchanan's message of December 1860, has been misrepresented at the North, but it was correctly understood at the South, and so offended the secession leaders in Washington that bis intercourse with them was completely interrupted during the last two months of the administration. Its ideas in respect to coercion were repeated with great clearness and cmpen'ation bv Senator Johnson, of Tennessee, (now President,) in a speech delivered by him that winter, from which Mr. Buchanan makes a pertinent ex tract. lie always upheld the authority of the Federal Government to compel the in habitants of the States, by military force, to obey the laws, President Buchanan has oeen persistently accused of feebleness and imbecility in neg lecting to put strong garrisons in the South* ern forts ; 'n failing to assume toward the South a high attitude of military menace ; and in not preventing Secretwy Floyd sup plying the South with aims taken from Northern arsenals. These charges have been industr ously circulated by comni >n rumor, and more than once made in print by so re nowned an officer as General Scott. All these chaiges are triumphantly refuted by the ex Presideut—everybody will regret to see with how much damage to the reputation for accuracy of their chief author. There was certainly a discreditable and improvident imbecility in that threatening crisis, but it lav at the door of Congress not of the President. The blindness and in f atu ation of that body was as disgraceful as it was astonishing. With State after State se ceding, and the whole South full of the bus tle of military preparalion.no law was pass ed authorizing the President to raise an additional soldier, or appropriating a dollar to pa y one. The incoming adminis tration was left as helpless and destitute as the outgoing ; and when Sumter was fired on end captured, President Lincoln was compelleu, in the stress of the emergency, to raise troops without the authority of law.— Why did not President Buchanan do the same ? For two sufficient reasons: the crisis justifying so bjld a step had not come ; and even if it had Congress teas in session and could have supplied the authority. President Buchanan, as early as the Bth of Jauuary, sent a special message to Congress laying before them the alarming state of the country, and submitting to their decision the necessity of efficient military preparation On the 10th, this message was referred to a special committee of which Mr. Reynolds was chairman ; he reported a bill on the 30th and killed his own bill by withdrawing it, the same day, with the approbation of the House. Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, chairman of [ the Military Committee, afterwards reported a bill for putting the government in a state of preparation, and this was killed by the House. Still another bill was reported, but action on it was postponed till the last day but one of the session, when the House iefused to suspend the rules to take it up.— Mr. Lincoln had previously arrived in Washington, fresh from making speeches, in which he declared that nobody was hurt, and it was by the motion of his intimate friend, Mr. Corwiu, that action on this subject was finally defeated. The friends of the new President must have been, at that time, very confident of a peaceful settlement, and have deemed all military preparation needless, even as a precautionary measure. It was the purpose of President Buchanan to collect the revenue at Charleston at all nazards, even if be had to establish the custom house on a vessel of war, at the mouth of the harbor. But the collector of that port resigned on the passage of the ordinances of secession, and no steps could be taken without a successor. The President on the 2d of January, sent to the Senate the name of Mr. Mclntyre, of Pennsylvania, but that body never confirmed the nomination, thus leaving the administration destitute even of the civil macbirery for executing the laws. Mr. Buchanan had determined to hold Fort Sumter, and took such measures to that end as the laws would permit him. Early in December, the war steamer Brooklyn was ordered to Hampton Roads in readiocss to sail on any day at a few hours notice, with three hundred disciplined soldiers, provisions a IID munitions fo'retnf TC<! Sumter. Assist ant Adjutant General Buell was dispatched to Charleston with verbal orders to Major Anderson, which he redueed to writing at Fort Moultrie, requiting him to make a res olute defense of Sumter if it should be attack ed. When the Suuih Carolina members of Congress tried to oblaiu from the President a pledge that he would not reinforce the fort he firmly refused. The letter addressed to President Lincoln by Secretary Holt (who held over a few days for Mr. Cameron), de scribing what had been done in reference to Sumter proves that the fort was not rein forced only because Major Anderson had de clared reinforcement unnecessary till, to the utter astonishment of the administration .that officer discovered that less than 20 ; 000 men would be of no avail. Hcwevef it may reflect on Major Anderson. Secretary Holt's letter as a complete vindication of Mr. Buchanan, so far as regards Fort Sumter. It is proved that on the 12th of March Gen. Scott advised Presideut Lincoln to a bandon Fort Sumter, which Mr, Bucnanan had steadily refused to do. "Its voluntary surrender," says he, "would gone far towards a recognition of their independence." With regard to putting strong garrisons in all the Southern forts, a sufficient reason why it was not done is, that there were no avail able men for the purpose. Our small army was on the western frontiers, where it was for the emergency if it could have been spared ; where it had been em bloy'ed for many yeaas ; and where by Gen. Scott's emphatic and repeated testimony, ex isting in official documents, it was sufficient for the demands ol the service against the Indians. To have distributed the- six hun dred and odd men General Scott was able to scrape together for the inauguration among the Southern forts, would only havo exposed the government to derision. Gen. Scott's own recorded opinion that, if we went into the war, it would require three hundred thousand soldiers,under young and active gen erals,to subdue the South, makes his accusa tion about not manning the forts sufficiently ridiculous. No part of Mr Buchanan's defense is more lucid and triumphant than his refutation of the standing calumny about his permitting Flo3 - d to supply the South with arras. This charge is riddled till not a shred of it is left. We will not recapitulate the heads o! the ev idence; and if justice did not require it pro duction, we would fain cast a thick vail over ii all, in tenderness to the reputation of Gen. Scott. If it were any man of less cousidera tion that received this terrible dissection the exposure would be as amusing as we find it painful. Like so much else in President Bu chanan's book, it is conclusive and unan swerable. MR. EDITOR : The first view that the traveller gets of Turkhannock, when ap proaching from the East, is a beau iful sight indeed. Its pleasant dwellings peeping out between the branches of its many shade trees make a picture to be admired by the art st / and sought after by the weary traveller seeking quiet ar.d repose. Not the least of its attractions,at this distance,is House standing upon a commanding position over looking the town, which to the observer con veys the idea that in this spot when justice is administered, peace and good order must reign supreme. The fine looking brick school house, standing upon one of the most eligible spots in the vicinity , looks well for the town, and shows a regard for the well training of the rising generation. It would be well if the stranger would stop here, and not ap proach nearer, for the inviting prospect is like the mirage that misleads the weary tra/eller upon the sandy desert, for distance lends enchantment to the view. If it could only be examined as the astronomer views the planets without the power of near ap proach to its beauties.it would be sung by the poet and immortalized by the historian.— Gladly would I pause here, but as my natur al inquieitiveness led ne to inspect the place more closely, the fear of deceiving your read ers compels me to give them the result of my closer inspection. Many of the beautiful res idences which I imagined I saw from the dis tance, and I must say the most of them prov ed to be mere dilapidated ruins in many cases inhabited by their able owners, who exist,l canuot say live, without the least re gard to health, comfort or pleasure. I take pleasure in here remarking that there are some noble exceptions to this last remark. The school house which added so much to the beauty of the place, upon close inspec tion, I found to be merely the walls of what might be a fine building, with hardly any window on the out side, or furniture within. The streets generally are in the worst possi ble state of repair, lined in many places with filth ; and where had once been sidewalks, there now remains a lot of rubbish that makes them impassable and dangerous, and compels the pedestrian to take the middle of the street regardless of mud through which he must wade, and which is thrown upon him by passing teams. A better situation for a town canuot well be imagined, than the spot on which Tunkbannock stands, being in a beauu'ul valley or basin, surrounded on ev ery side by large mountains with thorough fares formed by the river on the North and South, the Tunkbannock creek on the East, and Bowmans' creek on the West, opening it to the surrouuding country. But nature, who does not make towns, has made the lo cation, and left the rest for man to do. Why is it that with all these advantages, the peo ple will be so blind to their own interest as to neglect to make the few additions neces sary, when left by the creating hand of na tuie, to inake this one of the most pleasant and beautiful spots in the world?

"If there's a hole in a' your coats f. I rede ye tent it. A chiels amang you taking notes, And, faith, he'l prent it, g The total abstinence society, spoken of by us last week, which promised so little in its inception, turns out to be more than 'a sick man's dream" or a drunken man's resolve. Its originator, at least to all appearances, has faithfully adhered to his pledge. The reformation of himself, me saving to society of a man—we can now hail him as such with such a head and heart as he possesseajs worthy of his noblest efforts and his greatest sacrifices. — He whose eloquence in the Pulpit or in the Forum might have rivalled a Cbanning's or a Choat's ; whoso reasoning in the have confuted a Webster's or Calhoan's ; and whose wit and sar casm, would have sparkled as bright and have cut with as keen an edge as a Randolph's, can afford to make the effort."'"lie can well endure the taunts and jeers of the vile herd of "wassailers of high and low degree" in the hope that he may yet be himself again. They, at best, arc but cankering hi thy sores upon the body polific and will soon slough off into drunkard's graves. lie whom God has endow ed with capacities but little inferior to the angel's, should seek another—a nobler destiny. Having made very satisfactory progress in the temperance cause, so far as the excessive use of al coholic stimulants is concerned—the nncleus of a large society having been formed—we find that the lid of Pandora's box was opened long enough and wile enough to allow the escape of another crying, or rather coughing, evil, which has taken up its permanent abode with some of the store-keeps of town. A lady complained to us the other day, after her exit from me of our great dry-goods bazars.that she was "positively sick"—not of her bargains, for she had made good ones—not of the courteous con duct and delicate compliments of the good looking and agreeable clerks, for these were gratifying to her feelings, and flattering to her vanity ; but she was sick of the sickening fumes of poor tobacco coming from a filthy pipe, in the mouth of the pro prietor, which curled gracefully and odoriferously around hi s ravpn looks. If this tobacco worm, in his post prandial suckings of that strong pipe,would take his posish m the apex of one of the hitching posts in front of his store, and smoke to all out* doors, his lady customers would not get half as mad, and bis calicoes would smell much more of madder* The young people of this place have in full blast a Thespian Society or Dramatic club. The very popular play entitled the "Honey-moon" and the roaring farce of "Paddy Miles or the Limerick Boy" are now on the boards, and will shortly be brought out with new and beautiful scenery express ly prspared for these plays by an artist well, skilled in scenic representation Our ear has been at the koy-hole during a few of the rehearsals aud we can safely say that some of the actors exhibit a talent that would make them stars upon the boards at Niblo'a or any other theatre in" the country. We never doubted that there were in our midst some of the future Garricks, Forests. Burtons, Laura Keans, Mrs John Drews and Jenny Linds of the world. Per haps too a miniature Barnutn might be found, for surely there is among us a strong sprinkling of hum bug which needs but a little development to crop out in its exuberance aud put to shame all the tricks of that acknowledged chief of humbugs. Look at some of our preachers. Don't they beat Barnum ? Behold the mammoth waterfall dangling like a rag bag tied up in a fish-net at the backs of our Flora McFlimseys. Who suspects, that inside, they are as wooly as—Barnum's wooly horse ? Bqt We started to talk of the Drama. From the contempla tion of the buskin and the garter of the good old times when the Theatre iu its lessons of morality ri valed even the Church, —when morality was taught iu it—we find ourselves almost involuntarily pecking like a Jack-daw at the follies of the times, Let eve rybody save a quarter for the dramatic en tertain ment shortly to begiven by the Thespian society of Tunkhannock.
