OF .BERKS.
THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM,
TH Democracy of Pennsylvania in Convention
met, recognizing a crisis in tbe affairs of the Re
public, and esteeming the immediate restoration of
the Union paramount to all othor issues, do re
solve :
1. That the States, whereof the people were late
ly in rebellion, are entegral parts of the Union, and
are entitled to representation in Congress by men
duly elected who bear true faith to the Constitution
and Laws, and in order to vindicate the maxun that
taxation without representation is tyranny, uch
representatives should be forthwith admitted.
2. That the faith of the Republic is pledged to
the payment of the National debt, and Congress
should pass all laws necessary tor that purpose.
3. That we o* a obedience to the Constitution of
the United States (including tbe 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 to
regulate the 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 tajvote.
g. That the bold enunciation of tha principles of
the Constitution and the policy of restoration con
tained in tha recent annual message and freeclmen's
bureau vato message of President Johnson entitle
him to the confidence and support of all who respect
the Constitution and lore their country.
7' That the nation owes to the brave men of 'ur
armies and navy a debt of lasting gratitude for
their heroic service, in defence of the Constitution
and the Uaioo; and that while we cherish with
tender affection the memories of Ihe fallen, we
pledge to their widows and orphans tha nation's
care and protection.
8 That we urge upon Congress the duty of equal
ling tha bounties of our aildiers and sailors.
OT The Radicalism, the Disunionists, in
Congress are fighting among themselves_
like so many kilkinney cats. " When
rogues fall out, honest men may get their
dues.
The Negro above the Mechanic.
"But there is still another class for,whom
"no one ba9 yet spoken on this floor, who
"have contributed to your success not less
"than the soldier or the creditor, I WAS
"ALMOST ABOUT TO SAT, NOT LESS THAN
'THE FREEDMEN, I MEAN THE MECHANICS
"OF THE COUNTRY. —(Senator Sumnei in
the US. Senate, April 18, 1866. See
The soldier, and the white
mechanic of America have in the estima
tion of Senator Sumnei, borne equal bur
thens in the salvation of the nation. He
"was almost about to say" that the freed
man was equal with each, but he fails to
enunciate the sentiment, and we fairly in
fer that in his opinion the sacrifices and
privations of the former surpass those ot
all others. This is the deliberate language
of the Senator, in a studied attempt to flat
ter and praise the mechanic. It wa9 called
out during the discussion upon a bill for
the relief of certain naval contractors, in
which the theme chosen for his elabora
tion, was the value of tire American me
chanic in the recent civil struggle. He
believes the Negro is equal to any white
man, and here he expresses hi# conviction
that his services are greater than those of
tbe men who bore the brunt of the fight
for the Union. The Negro above the me
chanic. the Negro the equal of ail white
men, the Negro entitled to vote, to sit on
juries, to travel with us, to eat with us, to
enjoy every social and political right that
we enjoy, are the Alpha and Omega of his
daily thoughts, they are the prominent
traits of the Negro-loving disunionists.
White men protect yourselves by your
ballots.
CONSISTENT IN DISUNION —ln Con
gress on the 3d day of March, 1862, Mr.
Holman, of Indiana. (Democrat.) offered
the following resolution :
Resolved , That in the judgment of this
House, the unfortunate civil War into
which the Government of the United
States has been forced by the treasonable
attempt of the Southern Secessionists to
destroy the Union, should not be prosecu
ted for any other purpose than the restora
tion of the authority of the Constitution :
and that ihe welfare of the whole people
of the United States is permanently in
volved in maintaining the present form of
government under the Constitution with
out modification or change."
. i'lie disunionists defeated this resolution
by a vote of 60 to 49. Every Democrat
voted for the resolution. Tbaddeus Ste
vens and Mr. Speaker Grow, by this bold
act avowed their deliberate intention as
eaily as 1862, to carry oht their radical
and revolutionary piogramrae of disunion
Did not President Johnson speak trut> ful.
ly when he said tbey were difiunioniste ?
IST It may be of intereat to those who
are in the habit of circulating subscription
papers to learn that the Internal Revenue
Commissioner has decided that a five cent
stamp must be affixed to every name at
tached to such papers, unlets the signature
is accompanied by the immediate payment
of the amount subscribed. If payment is
made At once the signature is regarded
merely as a memorandum.
Fruits of the Civil Rights BtIL
On Monday of last week the negroes of
Norfolk, Va M had a celebration over the
passage of the Civil Rights Bill, on which
occasion the commander of the post and
the Mayor of the city allowed the negroes
to carry arms. The Consequence was, as
predicted, the negroes got drunk and made
a general assault on unoffending citizens,
when two white men and one white wo
man were butchered outright, and one
white man and a boy wonnded beyond re
covery, and not one of the assassins were
arrested. And this terrible outrage was
committed and not a disunion Republican
paper North has a word to say in condem
nation of the affair. Had the victims been
negroes every blatant negro organ would
have been convulsed with rage over the
wrongs inflicted on the poor freedmen.—
The truth is there is a certain party
who desire to see the negroes of the South
rise up and massacre the whites of that
section. The feelings of such wretches
bare been expressed on the stump here
by a ferocious member of that faction,when
he hoped 'that the rivers of the South
might be tinged with the blood of its peo
ple, and their bodies piled mountain high."
This incarnate spirit of hell is rife to-day.
It only wants some plausible opportunity
ito be presented to all it to have full sway.
Despairing of driving the Southern people,
into a position that would allow these
nds to glut the r sppetite fcr b!uod,tbey
secretly incite the negroes of that section to
commit acts similar to what we have re
corded above. But thpge negro equalities
had better forbear. There is always a
sympathy of race among the while masses,
and although it may, among a portion of
that race, be buried beneath the passion of
intolerance and bigotry, the majority will
soon show, when a collision of races occur,
that they will stand by the Caucasian
blood. We say again to these negiophol
ogists, beware. The war of races once be
gun you need not expect to escape the
fury the storm.
The Norfolk Virginian commenting on
this horrid affair, holds the following sig
nificant language :
The first fruits of this Civil Rights Mur
der bill are bitter. All history is a cheat
the maxim. that, like causes acting under
like conditions, produce like results, is a
wretched lie, or this Greek gift comes
among us freighted with armed men to
provoke insurrection and incite the hor
rors of insurrectionary warfare.
Our duty is plain. YVc must cor.trol
our natural impulses of indignation and re
venge. We must guard against the injus
tice of including our negro population prop
er in the responsibility attaching to the
events of Monday. \Y e must guard
against indiscriminate bitterness, and re
member that the great mass of our free
population were not included in the pro
cession, or, as far as we can learn, ap
proves of the display. \\ e advise this
modera:ion, not only here, hut elsewhere ;
and the melancholly example of Norfolk
■ray serve to put the civil and military au
thoritius of other towns on their guard, so
that this murder-producing epidemic of
processions may be checked jn time to pre
vent a further effusion 0 f innocent blood
and the fierce retribution which will ulti
mately follow unless we have some guar
antee given us that the lives of our women
and children are not to be sacrificed to the
brutal passions of a drunken and infuriated
mob. Where is this guaranty to come
from ? Guizet's definition of the word can
not apply to us as we now stand ; cannot
some organized power be put in our hands?
The man who stands at. the head of affairs
has foreseen this state of thing*, and we
now call on him again to interpose his
authority to quell the rising waves of what
may become a red deluge. This may
sound extravagant to those who are com
fortably seated in their homes in New
York and Boston ; but WE understand it.
We conclude this article with the very
significant fact that the bill of mortality
foots up—what a horrid phrase—as fol
lows: two white men, and one white wo
man killed, and one white man, and one
white boy, past all of recovery, done
to death in the broad daylight, by men in
United States uniform, in vgbt of the Uni
ted States forces, and no one to gratify the
audibly expressed anxiety of the troops, to
move to the rescue. *
Land Prize Money.
Every now and then our gallant soldiers
are made to do very repulsive work, and
are exhibited in very humiliating attitudes.
This is brought to our mind by the follow
ing, cut from the New York Tribune.
The Conspiracy Awards. —The conspi
racy awards reported to the Honse to-day
excite very lively comment. Many of the
parties in interest had sold their claims to
sharpers and agents for a song, while oth
ers had obtained loans at ruinous interest
on their contingent success. The excite
ment of the claim-agenry gang, and of the
recipients and thpir friends, was very great.
The collocation here of the "claim agency
gang" and the soldier, is certainly not pic
turesque. Still less is the actual enumera
tion of the rewards and the statement of the
services. A major gets $1,200 for catch
ing a miserable wretch like Abzerodt,
while a brigadier-general receives only
$626 for arresting a brawny ruffian like
Payne. Brigadier Baker has $3,750 for
seizing Harold when be came oui from the
burning bam, unarmed; and Sergeant
Boston Corbett, the model Puritan soldier
gets $2,600 for shooting Booth in the back
through a chink in the wall. Colonel
Pritchard gets SIO,OOO for capturing Mr.
Davis, the araonnt being perhaps a little
inflated by his services in the petticoat sto
ry and taking the crinoline from Mrs. Da
vis's trunk ; and Colonel Harnden, of Wis
consin, gets nothing.because he and Pntcb
ai'd quarreled about the spoils. Really,
these revelations are not romantic.— Aye.
The President, a few days ago, removed
two Radical office-holders at Pittsburgh—
the Postmaster and Internal Revenue Col
lector —and appointed good Administration
men in their places, ex-Governor Johnson
of Pennsylvania being selected for the lu
crative office of Collector, Tbe Domina
tions were sent to the Senate.
A New Dodge,
For several weeks past the disunion
members of the Rump Congress have con*
templated holding over, to defeat appoint
ments by the President, but now they have
hit upon a new dodge, to accomplish the
same daring and revolutionary purpose.
A bill "has been read in Congress to
hold the per centage and salary of any offi
cer appointed by the President (whether
: during the adjournment or not) until his
i appointment is conformed by the Senate.
This is simply and defiantly a scheme to
! stop the wheels of government, unless the
President ignores his policy of restoration,
and appoints radicals—his bitter enemies
—to all the offices in his gift Never was
there so vile and tyrannical a plot devised
to perpetuate power in the hands of any
body of men.
While the Senate is in session it rejects
every appointee who is suspected of sym
pathy with the President. Since the Rad
iqpls-have become fearful of the power and
| wrath of an outraged populace, if they at
' tempt to sit the year through for party
1 and selfish ends, tbey have proposed to
I pass this act to defeat and prevent appoint
ments bcin® made by the President by
prohibit*!, g the payment of any monies
to the appointees.
If this law passes, or Congress attempts
I to h#ld over, the President must do one of
two things,— he must allow enemies to re
main in his Cabinet, and in all the impor
tant officer, at home and abroad, and be
held responsible in history and to his coun
try for their administration ; or, he must
arrest the leaders of this disunion Congress
and send them to the old Capitol Prison
and the Test to be sent to their homes.
If it is a crime to attack the government
with arms and seek to destroy it by se
cession, it is equally criminal to attack it
by despotic aid unconstitutional legisla
tion, arid tlms seek to stop the wheels of
the government by withholding supplies,
and driving from office men appointed to
conduct its affairs, under the provision of
the organic laws. — Fx.
Negro Suffrage.
The lowa Legislature, which is made
up of two-thirds Republicans has passed
a joint resolution amending their Stale
Constitution, by extending the right of suf
frage to negroes. In Michigan, where the
Republican disunionists have entire con
trol, at the recent local electiot.s, the ne
groes were permitted to vote for the first
time. The Miners' Journal, of Pottsvilie,
a radical disunion sheet, publishes tbe
above with warm words of approval. The
Geary party are evidently preparing the
people to bring about the same result in
this State. So confident have they be
come, and so sanguine arc they of ultimate
ly bringing the principle o ( negro suffrage
to bear in Pennsylvania, that they are dis
tributing any amount of documents advo
cating the measure. Forney in bis Press
of this week speaks in the most laudatory
terms, of the action of Philadelphia ne
groes wh.> have subscribed upwards of $2,
000 to aid in distributing radical disunion
documeuts throughout the Commonwealth.
These conservative Republicans who are
opposed to negro suffrage should make a
note of this.

ORDERED : That Clement C.Clay, Jr.
i- hereby released Iroin confinement and
permitted to return to and remain in the
tate of Alabama, and to visit such other,
p.aces in the United States as his personal
business may render absolutely necessary,
upon the following conditions, viz :
That he take the oath of allegiance to
the United Slat sand give his parole of
honor to conduct himself as a loyal citizen
of the same, and to report himself in per
son at any time and place, to answer any
charges that may hereafter be preferred
against him by the United States.
Please report the receipt and executioo
of this order.
By order of the President,
E. D. TOWNSEND. A, A. G.
—
<7 The Fried men's Bureau in Wash
ington is justly overhauled for releasing,
on Friday last, forty-eight negroes, con
fined in jail at Washington, awaiting trial
for larceny. The United States District
Atorney entered a nol. pros in each of the
cases, upon the condition that the prison
ers would go South, which was accepted,
and these colored thieves and vagabonds
were sent off to Louisiana, under charge
of the Ereedman's Bureau. The only ex
cuse is, that they agreed to go to work at
sls a month for males of full age. This
is certainly a very pretty busmen for the
Federal Government to be engaged in.
£W The Test Oath is to stand just as
it is. So the Radicals decree. The Pres
ident, it will be remembered, sent in a
message a few days ago, urging its modi
fication, so as to enable the Government
to procure tbe services of persons properly
qualified to do the business of the Post
Office Department, etc., in the South.—
But, as if to spite tbe President, and to
keep the South " out in the cold" as long
as possible, there is to be no mod
ification. The radical party are getting
to be every day more and more of a disun
ion party.
jtlT It has been a common practice
with Disunion organs to give the very low
est number to the negroes who are sup
ported at the expense of the taxpayers.—
Believe them and there is now scarcely a
negro supported by the Government. The
Macon Telegraph, however, shows that, in
Georgia alone there are more than 43,000
negroes fed at Government expense, and
that the number thus fed throughout the
South exceeds 434,000.
Mrs. Lucy Gore, one of the survivors
of the Wyoming massacre, died iu Sheshe
quin, on the 34th ult. There are now but
two living witnesses of that event—Mrs.
Satterlee, of Smithficld, Bradford County,
and Mrs. Deborah Sutton, of Scranton.
Tbe bulllotlii* at Work,
The President seems to be getting in
earnest He has set the political guillo
tine to work. ' Ser how methodically it
moves! In Pittsburg an understrapper,
occupying the position of Revenue Colla
tor, is seen to raise his head and exhibit
his fangs, and at once the machine is mov
ed forward to perform its allotted work !
See the glittering blade descend ! The
official head is severed And rolls into the
basket. A kick and a gasp, and all is over!
The machine moves on ! The Postmaster
of the same place is growing treacherous.
He too must be beheaded ! No stopping.
Off goes his officialjhcad! But the work
does not rest here ! The Postmaster at
Harrisburg, has been exhibiting bis treach
ery. The fiat has gone forth. He too
must die! The knife descends! The
work is done, and a gallant soldier takes
his place ! The machine rests not, while
there is a "traitor at the other end of the
line." See, it approaches our own Dis
trict, aye, even our own County ! Here
the "loyal" editor of the Columbia Repub
lit an, who beld tho position of Internal
Revenue Assessor, attempted to ride two
horses, but his untenable position as the
breach grew wider, become too apparent.
He chose the " radical" nag, and in a
twinkling he too is made to bite the dust!
" Now by St. Paul, the work goes bravely
on." Lead forth the victims!— Berwick
Gazette.
SUICIDE OF Ex-Gov. 810 LEU'S SON.—
The Williamsport Gazette of last week,
says, we regret to be compelled to chroni
cle so melancholy a circumstance as the
death by suicide, of A. Reed Bigler, son
of Ex. Governor Bigler. He came to
Lock Haven some two or three weeks ago,
in bad health, and was stopping there, with
Mr, Watson, a relative of his, and was un
der the care of Dr. Canfield. In the fore
noon of April 2d, a son and daughter of
Mr. Watson were with him in his room,
when lie requested the young lady to re
tire. He then stated to the young gentle
man that he wished to have some clothes
washed, and gave several garments to be
sent to the washer-woman, and asked to
have a pocket book brought from the ad
joining room, as if to procure from it the
monev to pay for the washing. No sooner
had the young man left the room than he
heard the rt port of a pistol and on return
ing found young Bigler lying on the floor,
with a revolver by bis side. He had evi
dently placed the pistol to his mouth, and
discharged its contents down his throat."
He lived one or two hours.
Detective Baker has made a very
voluminous report, of bounty jumping
frauds under the calls for troops. He tra
ces tbe jumpers from the time of being
sworn in till their reaching the Held. lie
shows that of the 500,000 men called out
and sworn in by the Government, only
150,000 reached the field as soldiers, al
though thousands of others received their
bounties.
