mt Democrat, Q *— x HARVEY SIC KI.ER, Editor. TUNK.HANNOCK, PA r Wednesday. Feb. 28, IBG6 Tbe PKiUnt'i Speech. President Johnson's speech on the 1J -• in epu se to a Delegation w, ieh made kn-wn to him the s nrimcrds of a ma-s meeting, held to endorse his veto message, is one of the most emphatic decimations of his principles that has been made. He reasserts his devotion to the union, and allows that he Mind r-t nls who are its enemies. I!e de. biros himself opposed not only to the Davis i . t! e Toombscsand Slidells of tbe south, but also to the Ste pbeiises, Sumners and Phillipses of the north. In short he shows that lie is a ri'al and not a pretendvr friend of the union. There is no longer any appearance of sympathy between lain and the Black Re publican*. We shall see some of the tin e-serving, ofiiee-hol ling nincompoops tacking sail shortly. Down with the black cops. RETURNING REASON. The Ohio. Stales man speaks of a clergyman who informed the editor the other day, that a day or two after the assassination of Presi lent Lincoln he had pn ached a sermon surcharged with vengeance toward the South, and that al. most ever since the thought has been present, "I'm a pardoned rebel, too,"' and that, therefore, there was no propriety in his invoking veng, ance upon the Southern people who had been engaged in rebellion, while alone through paid >ll from the Al mighty can he hop - tor salvation. There is Christianity in flii* view, and we have been surprised that men assuming to he divinely ordained have not inculcated it from the'pulpit. It is not too late to do so even now. llow A BOLT THE FLAG ?—What has be come of all the blow ing a'ut tlie 'old flag' on rlie part of the abolitionists'? Not a syl lable in its praise do we hear of late. What can be the natter ? < >h, yes, the 'old flag' has too many stars on it to suit the present views <tf the abolitionists ! It has a star for even Southern a> well as for every North ern State. The 'old flag' recognizes the Southern States as in the I nion, while the abolitionist.- d dare that they are out of the Pniory That's what's the matter, iluirah for the 'old flag.'— X. The Veto Message, We publish on our first page the first veto message of President Johnson—re turning to the ( nited States Senate, with his ol>j c.ioiH, th? bid to extend the Nig i> ° gcr bureau. We adopt the language of an" Exhange in saving that it is hardlv n.ee-s-.rv for us to ask the serious consideration of our read cm to the arguments of President Johnson, why ti at infamous bill-was rejected ; the importance of the snl-j rt is such that they who have the interests and welfare of the country at heart, cannot fail to give it thought and refliCl; n. There is .a class of penp'e, however, who -seem to he ahore rea ling and thinking for iheinM-ives, who wait with eyes and mouth open to hear and receive ns gospel, what their leaders, —'j had. Stephens, Sumner, Fred Douglas and other Negroes—have to say, and then shift their sir Is to drift in the w;ike ; to that ehts- we would offer special inducements a goal locket, a f.-w brass rings, or sonief ing offftit sort, —if we 'bought there snv reasonable show of i>.du< ing eijrrwst thought and reflection in tiictu, to get tin m to give heed to what the President lias uiler d. But that is hope less ; they arc wedded to idols; an 1 areas pliant ai d sulci is ivc as trained monkeys to the crack of th. ring-master's whip. The patriotism of the country was held in deep dispense, while ti at bill lav u: on the President's tab!. . d lie sign it ? would he veto it ? No* e Could v. nture an.answer ; 1 ut thousands of honest hearts pr.; c.i that he might lave strength of nerve to do right ; for nme doubted his jtidgem nt. it was a contest simply be tween right and wrong 'i'he impudent idamor.-. of the niggers, and their threaten- i ing and brow beating alii s in the N. nnte and House of Uepiesentalk ns, were array* ed in his front, with tcetlr set and fists clenched in attitude or" daring for force, threati ning "impeachment " while in his rear sfoo 1 half his cabinet, demanding tlr.it he should sign a bill already passed by a two third vote. Is it any wonder the breath of the patriot hung sup nded ? But the veto came ! Right triumphed, ana the country < nee mere breathes Inc as air. It is emphatically the defeat of the par ty of error and the triumph of the party of right. No right-inaidoJ man, call him whig, republican, democrat or what you may, can deny this The bill was hatched as a strict party measure, in party caucus, and was pushed through both ljous°s with hide -eiit h isle 1y a strict pa- ty vote ; the blacks under Sumner and Stevens &c. \orirg ave, and the democra's nav. 1 liat 1 ill was a measure of 'mischief seasoned with malignity, bate, vengeance', and destruction. It bad no redeeming vir tue. Under the pretext ofaiding the'freed negro it cloaked whol. sale robbery of the -country for the benefit of party favorites and yai-kve Coffin m ikts for the negroes that the Freedmen's Bureau are murdering by who'esale. This is the best that can be said of if. It is "squelched.* The breath is out of it.' A spasmodic effort was made in the Senate to give it vitality bv a two third vot*, but that failed. Tbe crack cf the whip of the ring-master, and the jokes of h s clown were not potent enough to Vhip >.n all the Repuhlieai s. The bill spfrfligafi-om Pand munluiu,and it base >ne back to Massachusetts i Opinions )f the Presv, on the President'* Veto. (From the New York Trigone.) Mr. Johnson has made a great mistake. He has relieved those who elected him, of a great responsibility by ta£iug it on bis own shoulders. Hereafter, whatever wrongs may he inflicted upon or indigni ties suffered l>v the Southern blacks, will be chaiged to the President, who has left them t.aked to their enemies, (From the Tribune's Washington Despatch.) There is much excitement about the mat- ! tcr in political circles. It is thought the President has now thrown himself into the arms <>f the Copperheads.—(Not Black Copperheads, thank God.) # [From the World.] President Jol nso i 1 as nobly sustained bis character for steadiness of purpose and po litical courage, by the veto he sent to the senate, yesterday, of the bill 'for enlarging the powers of the Fr edmen's Bureau. The credit of composing an able sta e paper is trivial in comparison with the higher attributes of statesmanship exhibited by Mr. J>rtnson. IPs steadiness and pow er of will, his intrepidity, sagacity, and moderation, appear, on this occasion, to conspicuous advantage. He lias had the courage To rise above party and vindicate the Constitution. [FrnidThe Hers I J.] The Freedmen's Bureau bill, has at the hands of President Johnson, met with the fate which it deserved.' He lias, with his objections, sent it back to the Senate, —the body in which it originated—lie has given it the veto, and a very broad, strong, com prehensive and emphatic veto it is. He is opposed to tlie bill, root and branch. Ilis general arguments and his specifications against the bill are consistent, convincing, and conclusive. They are what we expected from the well-known opinions and earnest and decisive character of the man. [From the Diity News | N. i act of the President has gratified us so much. None has given us so much confidence in his patriotism and integrity. None has inclined us t > trust so hopefully to his wisdom and Ills statesmanship to guide the country through the dangers with which the madness of the radicals still surround it. At one bound he has risen to the hight of his great opportunity, and demonstrated his dev lion to the Con stitution, and to those gr<-at principles ot government which he enunciated so dis tinctly in his annual message. The Philadelphia Inquirer , the North Americnn , and the New York Times, hard ly know what to say or do. Forney, how ever, in his occasional article comes square out aga : nst the President as follows : ["OccasionalV Letter] We now realize the abundant authority of the Democratic newspapers for asserting that t\e President was opposed to this ira portauf m-asnre—a very singular circum stance when contrasted with the fact that the sfaunchest, most self-sacrificing, and most influential patriots (disunionists) in ♦he land remained in almost total ignorance of Li* intentions nearly up to the moment when his reto was rccived. When 1 wrote yesterday I indulged the hop> that his reasons for returning this hill would be sueli as might he accepted by his friends as so many improvements; but this fond anticipation is totally dispersed befo.e his exceptionless-ond sweeping veto. The whole measure is distasteful to liim. — There is not a feature of it that meets his approval. The patriotic people (disunionists) of , the United Slate* must now look Jo their Congress. Fortunate for the future, these two great Houses stand in solid and stern array around the rescued liberties of the I nion : but if they are expected to com j plefe the gn,at mission intrusted to them j they must he sustained and strengthened jby the people. The President has taken his appeal to the people, now let Congress go with him to their great con3tituencv. That's the point; and the people will sustain Andrew Johnson against the disun ionUts, thieves -nd revolutionists who have in less than two months offered over eighty amendments to destroy the Constitution, and to make a negro despotism out of the government of our fathers at the expense ot white freemen. THE NEOKO HISS.— In the debate in the Sena f e, on Friday, Mr. Hendricks, a raod < rate and conservative man, used this lan guage : There had been a great deal said about the part taken bv the colored meif in put i ting down the rebellion, and there was a great deal more said about it than was true, ; The rebellion was put down by the white men of the country, and 1 am opposed to seeing the laurels won by the white soldiers put on the brows of the colored man. And when this truth was uttered, the ntgroes of the District, hissed, and before the his was well hushed, a Michigan Sen- ! ator sa d that "Mr. Hendricks, would go down to tcrnal infamy and then the ne groes, in the gallery, applauded, and no word of rebuke was uttered. To -such a pass has the once great Senate of the Uni-* ted States come ! fir Gen. Crant recently had a house i warning on removing to his new residence in Washington. Not wishing to he invidi ous, he invited RRR to be present on the occasion The invitation was declined in a curt and impudent note. A cotempo rarv "ill observe that it was a fortunate | decMniatinn for Mrs. Grant, who was there- I bv relieved from the necessity of watching I her plate while he was present and count . in her spoons after he would have left.

Mr. Sumner will 1 doubtless endeavor to have the officer re-' moved for insulting Douglas and Downing V requesting them to sit in the colored gallery. j A Grave Ctrarge. T In the Congressional proceedings of| Thursday last, the following amazing state- j m <nt is recorded as emanating from " the gentleman from Lancaster The Clerk having read the clause appro-1 priating forty-six thousand dollars to ena ble the commissioner of Public Buildings to properly furnish and repair the Prcsi— j dent's House, when Mr. Stevens explained that heretofore, j i before the incoming of the Ad minis- j i tration, a certain stun was appropriated tor a similar purpose. An item was inserted !in the miscellaneous bill which a 1 knew failed to become a law owing to an amend ment made to the bill on the rnotiou of Mr. Davis, of Maryland. During the pe riod between Mr. Lincoln's death and the leaving of the White ll*use by Mrs. Lin coln, who was detained there by sicknnss, the building was left a prey to comers, and when President John-son took Possession there was scarcely anything left. Spoons, linen, beddiw], and other articles were taken mway,the house having been open to every body The Steward was responsible, but had failed in bis duty. The President's family had tried to get along with grant economy This statement of T'nad. Stevens, chimes well with tha statement made before a cer tain committee, by the man who made sev eral large deal boxes for Mrs. Lincoln, pri or to her leaving the white house. These statements explain, too, why Presi dent Johnson preferred quaiters at a hotel or private l>oardiug nouse, rather than more his family into a house rendered un comfortable by the removal of spoon*, lin en, bedding and other articles, belonging to the government. The New York Commercial, in speaking of the spoons, says, "when the bill for re furnishing the White House was under discussion, Mr. Stevens explained that through the negligence of Mr. Lincoln's steward, the establishment was plundered. All of the valuable furniture was missing, and when President Johnston's family mov ed in it was necessary to purchase beds, linen, spoons. See "Are the missing spoons those that Mr. Ogle talked about ?" asked Mr. Niblach, and Mr. Stevens replied ; "Yes, they are the* same. They were the gold spoons which was purchased, I think, by Mr. Van Buren, at a great ex pense, and I miy say that out ot a large number of spoons, forks and knives, which were very valuable, but one or two would, be left out of two dozen, and all that had been done has been to furnish samples to the persons in New York who furnish these things, and they are to be replaced, not to the extent that Mr. Van Bnren had hut as nearly as the present humble arid economi cal President deems necessary. I can say to the committer that nothing more is ask ed by the President and his family than is absolutely necessary to make the house decent. "They left a sample or two,because they did not want to make them get an entirely different set. I have understood that some of those.thinws are—well it is no matter where thev are." The correspondent of the Commercial calls this whitewashing, and adds to the above. "It is well known hereabouts where all the missing articles went. Some were sent from the city, and the otliers were sold to persons who have r< ceipts, bearing the au tograph signature of the responsible per sons— nor is that person the steward* to whom Mr. Stewns alluded.' The New Y-.rk Express adds: "Well,—name the c lpnt, and do not hestitate to give the name, even it should turn out to be lady." Facts for White Tax Payers and White Laborers. Before the war, the negroes of the Sooth paid their way ; in other words, their la bor paid their support, without any resort to the tax-payers of the country, and es pecially not to the tax-payer* of the North, for money to clothe them. The war is now over, and the Southern negroes are free. Peace reigns over the whole land, and there is more demand for labor now, in the South, than over before. The wages offered there, and given to these negroes who are willing to work,are higher and be'ter than the wages received by the Northern white fa-m laborers who work by the year But notwithstanding this condition of things, the Abolition leaders of the Siimner, Stevens, Kllev,and Brooni all stripe, are trying to fasten up the coun try, a monster governmental department called "the freedmen's Bureau," for the purpose of feeding and clothing the South ! em negroes who are 100 lazy to work ; and |to do this at an annual expense of over TWENTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS to be paid by the white tax-payers and white laborers of the North, South, East and West.—Ex. As IIONEST DECISION. —Judge King, of the Franklin county district, on the ques tion of throwing ont the votes of the so called deserters, under the Congressional disfranchising law.has decided that the pen alty of forfeiture of citizenship cannot be ' inflicted without due process of law, and j that deserters can be disfranchised only upon conviction ef the offence by some competent tribunal. As the act of Congress makes no provision for the judicial ascer tainment and conviction of the crime, and the laws of the State makes no such test of the qualifications of voters, the votes of such men must be accepted. Judge Elwell, of the Columbia district, has rendered a similar decision—and just previous to. the last election, Judge Thomp son, one of the Justices of the Supreme Court, affirmed the right of deserters to vcte, a law of Congress to the contrary notwithstanding. These decisions place the action of the (Republican) Senate Committee, in giving McConaghy a seat to which he was not elected, in a very unenviable light. Can fair-minded men of any party justify it? Abase of the President. President Johnson is threatened with the troubles which beset all prominent public men who rise abore party for tbe benefit of the whole country. Since his recent addresses to the delegations ored men and members of the Virginia Legislature, the floodgate of abuse, opened by Mr. Stevens, have been let loose upon | from Brooklyn to Chicago, lie is charged j by ultra newspapers with intriguing for re election to the Presidency, when his whole conduct and his own express declarations show that be is not. But that is not tbe worst of it. Wendell Phillips, who never appears to be easy unless he is in the midst of agitation, and who evideutly does not believe in the precept that a soft word turns , ' away wrath, has just delivered in Brooklyn | one of the most violent of his phillipics.— i ' He cannot conceive <hat the man charged , : by the will of Providence and by the votes j of the American people with the responsi-1 ' bilities of the Pro-id ncy in a grave and j important crisis, can be actuated by patri-j 1 otic motives. lie says that '-the President j means to crush Massachusetts, and that she j accepts the war. If he succeeds, he shall write his name higher than that of Burr or Arnold, for treason they attempted and failed in, he carried ; but if we win we will write it side by sida with them—as the traitor that tried and failed." Is it by SIHTII wild rhapsodies, Birch indecent abuse, that the important matters now before the country for settlement, are to be influenced and settled ? Mr. Phillips was the coadju tor of William Lloyd Garrison, but when Mr. Garrison who was the lifelong oppo nent of slavery—found his work accom plished, he ceased publishing his paper, and endcJ the warfare. But that great event only seems to have made Mr. 'Phil lips more violent than ever. Such abuse never has the effect intended. If Phillips is right, it will injure instead of helping bis cause; and if the President is right.it will make hiru still stronger with the peo ple.—'Phil. Ledger, LET IIIM DOWN EASY.— The manner in which our military heroes are let down to their original level, on their return home, are sometimes more amusing to the look ers on than flattering to the subject, A case in point : Gen. Sam. 11. went out in a regiment from the Badger State as Captain. Before he left the rendezvous he was pro moted to a colonel ; and for gallant con duct in the field was breveted brigadier general. On his return to civil life he told a friend "they let him down easy. At Washington it was Gen. 11. at Madison, Col. 11. at the town where lie organized his company, it was. 'Mow are you Cap tain ?' and when he got up to S., where ho resides, every bov, with freckled nose, was shouting. -Hallo Sam.'— Wabash iw Her ald. A DKEAM. — A few nights since a friend of ours, while trapped in the slumbers of midnight, "dreamed a dream," and imag ined he was on a pleasure excursion to the infernal regions. His was regaled with many scenes novel, strange and un dreamed-of in the philosophy of man While in the reception room of His Ma jesty, the pleasant little imp who acts as usher, announced Thaddeus Stevens ! Satan actually trembled in his sulphuric boots, and quick uprising asked : "What, that noisy fellow from Pennsyl vania ?" "Yea,'' responded the usher. "Send him back ! send him back !" ericd Satan, "there is no place tiere for him." "But," responded the liitle devil, who seemed to enjoy an event which promised to knock the sand from under his Impnial Chief, "you must receive hinr, he can't go anywhere else." Satan walked the floor with rapid st rides for a few moments, wuen suddenly he stop ped and said : "I have it! he may have a few bushels of brimstone and a box of match es, and go off and start a little hell of his own.— Natchez Courier.
