I\t flcmotrat. HARVEY SICKLER, Editor. TUNK.HANNOCK, PA Wednesday. May 2, 1866. C TOR GOVERNOR, 109. lEISTEfI CIYMEB, 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. — — 4*- Release of Clement C. Clay. [OFFICIAL.] Maj. Gen. N. A. Milts , Commanding For tress Monroe: 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. - <7 Wc see by the Washington news that a delegation ofNIGGER WENCHES appeared in the Senate Chamber after the passage of the Negro Civil Rights Bill and presented each disunionists who voted for the bill a beautiful boquet.

C. , awaiting trial for larceny, were rcdeased and sent to Louis iana under charge of an offcer of the Freed men's Bureau. Evidently the negro worshippers begin to think that Sambo's room is better than his company. It is rumored that the President will soon issue another proclamation regarding tbe status of the Southern States, including Texas, and involving a general amnesty. The number of widows, orphans and dis abled soldiers now drawing annual pensions from the Government is about ninety-sev en thousand five hundred, without count ing those granted during the present month.
