FOR GOVERNOR,

OF BERKS.
THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM,
"* The Democracy of Pennsylvania in Convention
met, rerogniring a crisis in the nffuirs of the Re
public, and esteeming the immediate rsetoration of
the L'nion paramount to all other issues, do re
solve :
1. That the States, whereof the people were late
ly in rebellion, are cntegral parts of the Union, and
are entitled to representation in Congress by men
duly elected who bear true faith to tbe Constitution
and Laws, and in oder to vindicate the maxim that
taxation without representation is tyranny, such
representatives should he forthwith admitted.
2 That the faith of the Republic is pledged to
the payment of the National debt, acd Congress
should pass all laws necessary tor that purpose.
3. That we owe obedience to the Constitution of
the United States (including the amendment prohib
iting slavery,) and under its provisions will accord
to those emancipated all their rights of person and
property.
4- That each State has the exclusive right t >
regulate tho qualifications of its own electors.
5. That the white race alone is entitled to the con
trol of the Government of the Republic, and we are
unwilling to grant to negroes the right-te vote.
g. That the bold enunciation of the principles of
the Constitution and the policy of restoration co#-
t ained in the recent annual message and freedmen's
bureau veto message of President Johnson entitle
him to the confidence and support of all who respect
tbe Constitution and love their country.
7' Tbat the nation owes to the brave men of ear
armies Ihd navy a debt of lasting gratitude for
their heMic service, in defence of theJConstitntion
and the Union; and that while we cherish with
tender affection tho memories of the fallen, we
pledge to their widows and orphans the nation's
care and protection.
8. That we urge upon Congress the duty of equal
ising the bounties of our scldiers an d sailors.
The State Legislation will adjourn
to-morrow."
A law to prohibit the sale of intox
icating liquors on election days was defeat
ed in the Legislature a day or two since,
by a majority of two to one.
The President in an official order
has directed the heads of the different de
partments, in their appoirtments to give
the preference in all cases where par
ty is qualified, to maimed and disabled
soldiers and seamen.
BW Tho nigger-civil rights bill which
was vetoed by the President has been pass
ed by a two thirds majority in both houses
of Congress —no twithstanding the Presi
dent's objections. As he has, after dclibei
a<e examination, declared the bill unconsti
tutional ; it remains to be seen how he will
reconcile the execution of this law, with
this oath to support the constitution.
Resign ation of Senator C'.'ymer.
IIARRISBCRG, March 30, 1866.
Ho*. DAVID FLEMING.
sSpeaker of the Senate of Pennsylvania:
SIR: I hereby resign my seat as Sena
tor representing the Sixth Senatorial dis
trict of this Commonwealth.
I had intended to foiward you my res
ignation on Tuesday, the sixth day of this
month, but on examination of the election
laws I found that if a resignation takes
place at any time before the last fifteeQ
davs of the session of the General Assera
blv, it would be tbe duty of the Speaker to
issue his writ for a special election. As
by a joint resolution the day of final ad
journment has been fixed on tho 12th day
6^April, 1866,1 have deferred informing
you of my intention until this day, in order
that my district may be spared the expen
ses incident to a special election, which it
is now too late to orden
You will believe me that I sever my
long connection with the body over which
you preside with the feelings of deep per
aonai regret, constrained tlr reto by the
now relations which I bear to my fellow
citizens.
For yon, sir, and every member of the
Senate, I shall ever entertain the kindliest
feelings of personal regard and esteem.
I have the honor to be
Yours, very faithfully,
HEISTER CLYMER.

PROCLAMATION fiV the PRESIDENT.
PEACE-LAW—LIBERTY.
By the President b/ the United States:
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, By proclamations on the fif
teenth and p/.neteenth of April, one thou
sand eigb f . hundred and sixty-one,the Pres
ident Or the United States, in virtue of the
poTVer vested in him by the Constitution
and the laws, declared that the laws of the
j United Slates were opposed, and the exe
j cution therof obstructed, in the States of
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida,
Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas, by com
binations too powerful to be suppressed by
the ordinary course of judicial proceedings,
or by the powers vested iu the marshals
by law.
And whereas , By another proclamation,
made on the sixteenth day of August,in the
same year, in pursuance of an act of Con
gress approved July thirteenth, one thous
and eight hundred and sixty-one, the in
baditanls of Georgia, South Carolina, Vir
ginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama,
Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas,Mississippi,and
Florida —except the inhabitants of that part
of the State of Virginia lying west of the
Alleghany Mountains, and to such other
parts of that State and the other States be
for named as might maintain a loyal adhe
sion to the Union and the Constitution, or
might be from time to time occupied and
controlled by the forces of the United Stales
engaged in the dispersion of insurgents,
weie declared to be in a state of insurrection
against tbe United States.
And ichereas , By another
on the first day of July,one thousand eight
hundred and sixty two,issued in pursuance
of an act of Congress approved June sev
enth, in the same year,the insurrection was
declared to be still existing in tne States
aforesaid, with the exception of certain spe
cified counties in the Stale of Virginia.
And whtreas , By another proclamation,
made on the second day of April,one thous
and eight hundred and sixty-three, in pur
suance of the act of Congress of July thir
tecn.one thousand eight hundred and sixty
one,the exceptions named in the proclama
tion of August sixteen, one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-one, were revolted; and
the inhabitants of the States of Georgia,
South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee
Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Mis
sissippi, Florida, and Virginia, exeept the
forty-eight counties of Virginia designated
as West Virginia, and the ports of New
Orleans, Key West, Port Royal, and Beau
fort, in South Carolina,were declared to be
in a state of insurrection against the Uni
ted States; and whereas,the House of Rep
resentatives, on the 22d day of July, 1861,
adopted a resolution in the words following,
viz:
Resolved , By the House of Representatives
of the Congress of the Uni'ed States,ihat the
present deplorable civil war has been f reed
upon tbe country by the Disunionists of th#
Southern States, now in revolt against the
Constitutional government and in arms
around the Capitol that in this national em
ergency Congress, banishing ail feelings of
mere passion or resentment, will recollect
only its duty to the whole country ; that
this war is not waged on our pari in any
spirit of oppression, nor for any purpose of
overthrowing or interfering with the rights or
established institutions of those S'aies, but
to maintain and defend the supremacy of the
Constitution, and to preserve the Union with
all the dignity, equality, and rights cf the
several Stat< s unimpaired ; and that as soon
as these objects are accomplished the war
ought to cease.
And whereas, The Senate of the United
States,on the 25th day of July,lß6l,adopt
ed a resolution in the words following,viz.:
Resolved. That the present deplorable civil
war has been forced upon the country by the
disunionists of tbe Southern States now in
revolt against the constitutional government
and in around the Capital ; that in this na
tional emergency, Congress, banishing all
feelings of mere passion or resentment, will
recollect only its duty to the whole country ;
that this war is not prosecuted on our part
in any spirit of oppression, nor for any pur
pose of conquest or subjugation, nor for the
I purpose of overthrowing or Interfering with
the right- or established institutions of those
States, but to defend and maintain thesupre
macy of the Constitution and all laws made
in pursuance thereof, and to preserve the
Union with all the dignity, equality, and
rights of the several States unimpaired ; and
a soon as these objects are accomplished
the war ought to cease.
And Whereas, These resolutions, though
not joint or concurrent in form, arc sub
stantially identical, and as such may be re
garded as having expressed the sense of
Congress upon the subject to which they
relate.
And Whereas , By my proclamation of
the 13th day of June last, the insurrection
in the State of Tennessee was declared to
have been suppressed, the authority of the
United States therein to be undisputed,
and such United States officers as had been
duly commissioned to be in the undisputed
exercise of their official functions.
And Whereas , There now exists no or
ganized armed resistance of misguided citi
Zens or others to the authority of the Uni -
ted States'in the States of Georgia, South
Carolina, Virginia, North Carolina, Ten
nessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mis
sissippi and Florida, and the laws can be
sustained and enforced therein by tbe prop
er civil outhority, State or federal, and the
people of the said States are well and loyal
ly disposed, and have conformed, or will
conform, in their legislation, to the condi
tion of affairs growing out of the amend
ment to the Constitution of the United.
States prohibiting slavery within the lim
its and jurisdiction of the United States.
And Whereas , In view of the before-re
cited premises, it is the manifest deterrnin
ation of tho American people that no State,
of its own will, has tbe right or pow- ,
er to go out of, or separate itself from, or
be separated from, the American Union;
and that, therefore, each State cuglit to re-:
main and constitute an integral part of the !
United States.
And Whereas, The people of the several
before-mentioned States have, in the man
ner aforesaid, given satisfactory evidence
that they acquiesce in this sovereign and
important restoration of the national unitv.
And Whereas , It is believed to be a fun
damental principle of government, that peo
ple who have revolted and who have been
overcome and subdVicd must either be dealt
witb so as to induce them voluntarily to be
come friends, or else they must be held by
absolute military power or devastated so as
to prevent them from ever again doing
harm as enemies, which last-named policy
is abhorrent to humanity and freedom.
And Whereas, The Constitution of the
United States provides for constitutional
communities only as States and not as terri
tories, dependencies, provinces, or protecto
rates.
And W.iereas, Such constituent States
must Decessarily be, and by the Constitu
tion and laws of the United States, are
made equals, and placed on a like footing
as to political rights, immunities, dignity
and power with the several States with
which they are united.
And Whereas , The observance of polit
ical equality as a principle of right and
justice is well calculated to enconiage the
people of the aforesaid States to become
more and more constant and persevering
in their renewed allegiance.
And Whereas, Standing armies, milita
ry occupation, martial law, military tribun
als, and the suspension of the privilege of
the writ of hubcast corpus, are, in time of
peace, dangerous to public liberty, incom
patible with the individual rights of the
citizens, contrary to the genius and spirit
of our free institutions, and exhaustive of
the national resources, and ought not,
therefore, to be sanctioned or allowed, ex
cept in cases of actual necessity for rebell
ing or invasion, or suppressing insurrection
or rebellion.
f And Whereas, The policy of the gow,
ernmcnt of the United Slates, from the be
ginning of the insurrection to its overthro'
and final suppression, lias been in conform
ity with the principles herein set forth and
enumerated :
Therefore , I, Andrew Johnson, President
of the United States, do hereby proclaim
and declare that the insurrection whieh
heretofore existed in the States of Georgia,
South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia,
Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas,
Mississippi, and Florida, is at an end, and
henceforth to be so regarded.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at th City of Washington on the 2d day of
April, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-six, and of the independence of
the United States of America the ninetieth.
ANDREW JOHNSON.
By the President :
WILLIAM 11. SEWARD, Secretary of State.
The end of the War—lta Object.
To-day (3d) is the anniversary of the
occupation of Richmond by the Union for
ces, followed by the surrender of Lee on
the 9th (Sunday.) The people rejoiced
because they thought the result would
bring peace and Un : on. Now the leaders
of the Republican party seem to regret the
result, and are striving to keep up a state
of war, and prevent a return to Union.—
They even pronouueed their own Presi
dent because he is for the Union, because
he insists that the fruits of war and victory
shall be what both parties avowed they
should be,as is shown by a resolution unan
imously adopted in both branches of Con
gress, which we again quote from the of
ficial record of July 24th 1861:
Mr. Johnson of Tennessee—l ask the
consent of the Senate to introduce a reso
lution. The Secretary read the resolution
as follows:
Resolved, That the present deplorable
civil war has been forced upon the country
by the disunionists of the Southern States,
now in revolt against the constitutional
government, and in arms around the capi
tal ; that in this national emergency, Con
gress, banishing all feelings of mere pas
sion or resentment, will recollect only ita
duty to the whole country; that this war is
not prosecuted on our part in any spirit of
oppression, not for any purpose of conquest
or subjugation, nor purpose of overthrow
ing or intefering with the rights or estab
lished institutions of those States, but to
defend and maintain the supremacy of the
Constitutiou, and all laws made in pursu
ance thereof, and to preserve the Union,
with all the dignity eqWnlity md rights •/
the several States unimpaired, and that as
soon as these objects ars accomplished the
war ought to cease.
Honest conviction is my courage,
the Constitution if my guide.— Andrew
Johnson.
Such usurpation two centnries ago wo'd
have cost an English King bis head.—
1 Thaddeus Stevens.
It it usurpation to stand between the
people and the encroachments of power!
Men may talk about usurpation and be
heading, but when I am beheaded 1 want
the American people to be the witness.—
Andrew Johnson.
There are earthquakes about us; I trem
ble and dare not yield.— Thaddeus Ste
vens.
Yes. fellow citizens, there is an earth
quake coming; there is a ground swelling
of popular judgment and indignation. The
American people wili speak, and, by their
instinct i f not otherwise, they will know
who are their enemies.— Andrew John
son.
Pennsylvania Tea Company,
Another tea company has been corpora
ted in this State. A plant, resembling the
genuine Chinese tea plant, grows in luxu
riance abundance in Clinton and other coun
ties, and thousands of acres of land which
have hitherto been considered valueless,
have been taken up, and the necessary
machinery put op for the manufacture of
tea. It is believed that tea is equal to the
Scouchong or Oolong can be made in this
State. Prof. Bonsall, who spent several
years in the East India Tea Company, is
at the head of this new enterprise. Hon.
Jatnes W. Quiggle, of Philadelphia, is at
the bead of another company, which was
incorporated under a liberal charter about
four years ago,

The Views sf Mr, Uaeela on the Scheme
of the Dlsanlonlstf.
The following important letter on the
views of Mr. Lincoln on the Radicals and
the question of restoration has been address
ed to President Johnson by ex-United
States Marshal Lam on, Mr Lincoln's inti
mate friend and former law partner :
Mr. the numerous
allegations made against you by the ultra
Abolitionists, I hear none repeated so often
as this —that you have deserted the princi- ]
pies upon which you were elected, and!
turned aside from the path in which your
lamented predecessor would hare wajked if
he had lived. It seems to be believed by
some that Mr. Lincoln could have been
used by the Radicals for all their purposes,
including the destruction of the Govern
ment, the overthrow of the Constitution,and
the indefinite postponement of Union and
harmony among the States.
I need not say to you or any well inform
ed man tha the masses of that powerful
party which supported Mr. Lincoln and
you in the canvass of 1864, were sincerely
attached to the Union and devote believers
in the Constitution. They everywhere as
serted that the object of the war was to re
establish the Union with the least possible
delay, and one of the resolutions of the
Baltimore Convention pledged you both to
restore the paramount authority of the Con
stitution in all the States. It is true that
the party included some malignant* who
hated the Union and tried to destroy it be
fore the war began,and their pretended love
of the Union during the war was more than
suspected to be insincere and hypocritical;
but they kept prudently silent. Mr. Thad.
Stevens was, to the best of my knowledge,
the leading man in the party,shnmeles and
impudent enough to avow his hostility to
the Union. He was not the exponent of
our views, and he represented not even a
fractional part of the honest millions who
cast their votes, spent their money and
shed their blood to bring back the govern
ment of their fathers.
All this you know. I write now to tell
you what I know concerning the personal
sentiments of Mr. Lincon himself, and I
claim now to be the same kind of H Re
publican that I was when I voted for him
at his first and second election. I was his
partner in the practice of law for a num
ber of years. I came here with him as his
special friend, and was Marshal of this
District during the whole of his adminis
tration. Down to the day of his death I
was in the most confidential and intimate
relations with him. 1 knew him as well
as one man can be known to another. I
had many and free conversations with him
on this very subject of reconstruction. —
I was made entirely certain by liis own
repeated declarations to me, that he would
exert all his authority, power and influ
ence to bring about an immediate recon
struction between the two sections of the
country. As far as depended upon him,
he would have had the Southern States
represented in both Houses of Congress
within the shortest possible time .
All the energies of his nature were giv
en to a vigerous prosecution of the war
while the rebellion lasted,but he was equal
ly determined upon a vigerous prosecution
of peace, os soon as armed hostility was
ended. He knew the baso designs of the
Radicals to keep up the strife for their own
advantage, and he was determined to thwart
them. As he himself told me very often,
if anv corroboration of this statement is
needed, it mnv be found in the fact that
the ultra Abolitionists had actually begun
the outcry against him before his death.and
the moderate men everywhere, North and
South, sincerely mourned his fall as a ca
lamity which deprived them of their best
friend. If that inscrutable Providence
whose ways are past'finding out, had per
mitted his life to continue until this time,
there can be no doubt that the Northern
disunionists would now be as loud in their
denunciation of his policy as they are of
yours. Mr. Stevens' demand for the head
of "that man at the other end of the avenue''
would not. have been one whit less ferocious.
Of course he could not and did not antici
pate the precise shape of the measure
which the Radicals might adopt to prevent
reconstruction. The Freedmen's Bnreau
bill which recently met his death at your
hands was not born in his life time ; but I
pronounce it a foul slander upon his mem
! ory to assert that he would have signed a
bill so palpably in conflict with the Con
stitution and so plainly intended to pro
mote the one bad purpose of perpetual dis
union.
I did love Mr Lincoln with a sincere
and faithful affection, and my reverence for
his memory is intensified by the horrible
circumstances under which his high career
was closed. Now that death has disarmed
him of the power to defend himself, his
true friends should stand forth to vindicate
his good name. If there be any insult up
on his reputation which they should resent
more indignantly than another, it is the as
sertion that he wonld have been the fool
and instrument in the hands of such men
as those who now lead the heartless and
unprincipled contest against you.
I have the honor to be, your obedient
servant, WARD H. LAMOK.
Mr. Beecber. in his lecture on
44 Reconstruction," made this most happy
illustration of the relations of Mr. Lincoln
and his successor to the Radicals:
The kind and patient Mr. Linco In was
cudgeled and whacked by Congr ess, and
he bore it with a patient spirit, reminding
him of some horses, who merely act when
cudgeled, as though it was to brush flies
off When they commenced whacking
Mr. Johnson, they found a pair of heels
through the dash-board, and they left the
wagon and took to trees and bushes, cry
ing, 44 Beast, brute;" but since then had
cudgeled more carefully.
The slioddvites never tired of quo
ting the Democratic platform of Septem
ber, 1864—tbat four years of war had
then failed to restore tho Union, Never
theless ft was true and more } for one full
year succeeding, pf profound peace, has
failed to bring about a restored Union!—-
All of which is owing to the disnoionism
of self-styled Republicans.
