FOR JUDGE OF THE SUPREME COURT,
GEORGE SHARSWOOD,
OF PHILADELPHIA.
" " No Paper next Week.
The time for one of the two short weeks
of respite from the routine toils of the print
ing office, which custom allows to the print
er, being uear at hand ; we announce with
satisfaction to ourself and pleasure to all the
typos, including the devil, that THERE WILL
BE KO PAPER ISSUED FROM THIS OFFICE,
KEXT WEEK.
Our readers, who—may we persume to
say—look for its regular weekly visits
with some solicitude, may not feel so well
satisfied with this arbitrary custom, which
they have had no voice in establishing.—
It is a custom, nevertheless, which hat
been observed and acquiesced in, so long
that now, like many other more objection
able customs, it has beccme a law. We
have always been a law-abiding subject, and
cannot, now, consent to run the risk of
raising the very devil, himself, (an Imp pe
culiar to priuting offices.) by attempting to
get out a paper so near the time, when those
infernal inventions of the Chinese, called
fire-crackers, abound in such profusion.
We meekly submit to the powers that be ;
and advise all the readers of the Democrat,
in the meantime, to devote all the hours—
they can conscientiously pare from read
ing their Bible—to study and reflection on
that noble Document—that monument to
the wisdom and patriotism of the men who
first proclaimed it to the world, ninety-one |
years ago this coming 4th day of July —j
The Declaration of Independence.

The Bridge.
The rebuilding of the bridge across the j
river, at this place, which it was hoped
would be commenced at an early date in
the season, so as to insure its completion
this year, it is feared may be delayed un
til too late for such a result. Some of our
citizens, especially those on the other side
of the river, who should be more directly
interested in it, than any other class, seem
to exhibit a strange apathy in regard it.—
Cut few of them have come forward to
subscribe to the stock.
By taking advantage of the liberal of
fer made by the bridge company a few
weeks since, which is still kept good by
them, more than one third of the cost of j
a new and original bridge can be saved to
the stockholders. In publishing that of
fer we then endeavored to prove and think
wc did prove to all who gave the subject
iheir candid consideration, that the stock
would be a better .paying investment to 1
monicd men than any other legitimate use j
of their money. The advantages and con. j
veniences, to all, of a bridge at thi point
in view of the speedy completion of the
Hail Road, and the resulting increase to
the value of all kinds of property arising
from both these improvements—should
furnish a sufficient incentive to all proper
ty owners within many miles of it, to secure
its prompt rebuilding.
It requires but little reflection, for any
farmer on flie west side of the river, whose
nearest point to the Rail Road and to mar
ket will be this place, to see that a good
bridge here would make his property far
more valuable, either to sell or to keep
than without it. Wc believe there is
enough money stowed away in old stock
ing legs, and in old musty money-drawers,
r.ow worse than useless to its owners--al
most within the sound of the voice of the
luckless wight, who by the half hour bal*
loos, "Over ! Over !! Over!!! " —to build
the bridge. This money should be drag
ged forth from these hidden recesses and
made to do its mission in this 'moving
world of ours. Certainly every man who
ha 9 any of it and whose business or pleas
ure requires him to cross the river at this
point, would do well to invest enough in
the bridge to ballance bis expenses for tolls
To a tradesman mechanic or business
man here—no matter how small his busi
ness may be, it should require no argu
inent to prove that the bridge would not
only be a benefit to him in his business,
but would add greatly to the value of his
property.
If all the people interested in this matter,
would do whit they can in aid of it, large
subscriptions by any one or more individ
uals would not be required. The tolls
could be put and kept at reasonably low
rates; to avoid the too common and some
times just complaint of extortion by a soul
less corporation.
In presenting this subject again to the
consideration of the people of our County
and Town we have no personal ends to
subserve, DO motives except those which
luuuia innurflCu fTfry one in
the success and prosperity of the whole
people
We most earnestly hope the re may be
no farther hesitancy or delay id this most
important and desirable improvement. .
The Books are now open to receive sub*
scriptious in amouut large ar small, as may
best suit the convenience and many of the
subscribers. All are invited to take stock
which cannot -far!* to be remunerative.
There should be no further delay, if we
expect to have the bridge built this season.
More About tbo Joff Da via Diogaioe,
The Portland Argus publishes the fol
lowing :
I am no admirer of Jeff. Davis"; I am a
Yankee born between Saccarappa and Gor
ham Corner, aui full of Yankee prejudices,
but I think it .wicked to lie even about
him, or, for that matter, about the devil.
I was with the party that captured Jeff.
Davis, saw the whole transaction from its
beginning. I now say, and hope that you
will publish it, that Jefferson Davis did
not have on at the time he was taken, any .
! garment such as is worn by women. He
did have over his-shoulders a water proof
article of clothing something like a "Have
lock," It was not in the least concealed.
He wore a hat, and did not carry a pail of
water on his heikl, nor carry pail, bucket
nor kettle in any way.
To the best of my recollection, lie car
ried nothing whatever in his hands.—
His wife did not tell any person that ber
husband might hurt somebody if he got
exasperated. She behaved like a lady,
and he as a gentleman, though manifestly
he was chagrined at being taken into cus
tody. Our soldiers behaved like gentle
men, as they were, and our officers like
honorable, brave men; and the foolish
stoiies that went the newspaper rounds of
the day, telling how wolfishly he deported
himself, were all false. I know what I
am writing about. I saw Jefferson Davis
many times while he was staying in Port
land several years ago, and think that I
was the first one who recognized him at
the time of bis arrest.
When it was known that he was certain
ly taken, some newspaper correspondent—
I knew his name at the time—fabricated
the story about the disguise in an old wo
man's dress. I heard the whole matter
talked over as a good joke, and the officers
who knew better, nevei took the treuble
to deny it. Perhaps they thought that the
Confederate President deserved all'tlie
contempt that could be put bira, I think
so, too, only I would never perpetrate a
falsehood that by any means would be
come history.
And father, I would never slander a
woman who has shown so much devotion
as Mrs. Davis has to her husband, no
matter how wicked he is or may have
been,
I defy any person to find a s-.rgle officer
or soldier who was present at the capture
of Jeff. Davis, who will say upon honor
that he wasjdisguised in woman's clothes,
or that his wife acted in any way unlady
like or unladylike or undignified on that
occasion, Igo for trying him for his
crimes, and if he is found guilty, punish
ing him. But 1 would not be about him
when the truth will certainly make it bad
enough. JAMES H. PAKKEB,

Judiciary Committee—that is,
the Impeachment Committee —have been
taking the testimony of the employes
around the White House as to the Presi
dent's personal habits, and especially as to
his abstemiousness. It is reassuring to
learn from a dispatch in the Boston Tran
script that one of }he employes "swore
that he never knew the President to take
a glass of liquor since he occupied the
White House." Now, we dou't like that
phrase "glass of liquor." It is not suffi
ciently definite. If he never took a glass
of liqnor, did he ever take a mug of beer ?
Let the Committee go into this matter
thoroughly, and clear it up. What the
country wants is precise information as to
what the President drinks.— Ex.

The Borough authorities have issued a

STEALINGS AT.THJ3 STATE CAPITOL
LOYALTY* U.LUSTRATED."
4 few days Ace information was re
ceived by the cbieNf police that Sieves
Were at work attic of the capitol.
where has been stored for want of room
STs'dwhere, hundred# of valuable congress
ional documents and books of reference.
Very often during the past few months,
books have been missed, and though the
thieves have not been detected, yet-.strung
suspicions have been excited against cer
tain parties, who, in their good standing
as members of. the "Go(1 and, ■ morality
parfy," had obtained positions as Clerks,
messengers and ".hangers.. om" about, the.
liill. These rapacious individuals had
upon more than one occasion evinced 6
sort ol hankering after the "spoils," but
they escaped "scott free" until yesterday.
The tax-pavers of the Commonwealth,
though over burdened with taxes forced
upon them, have no idea of the amount of
plundering and pilfering which has taken
place. The people of Harrisburg alone
know what has become of the ejggant car
pets at the close of each session,
the hundreds of old (!) desks, chairs,
and other furniture, which it con
stantly replaced, together with the
"laid aside" lumber, coal, wrapping paper,
ink, stationary, <fec. &c. Never has there
been a public srle of this debris since the
Abolition paity gained ascendency in the
Commonwealth, and, we were informed
yesterday, by a gentleman who is pre
sumed to be in the confidence of the
"ring," that the value of the material sold
waste paper, dec.) amounts to over S2OO
per week, and we have never heard of one
dollar of that sum being accounted for to
the State.
A few days ago, George H. Morgan,
Esq., Assistant State Librarian, found a
number of covers, torn from valuable works
in the attic of the Capitol, the covers re
maining, but the body of the volumes had
evidently been carried away. Ifeat once
notified officer Campbell of the fact, and
the Chief commenced in his' thorough and
indefatigable way, to search for the stolen
books. Several shops known to purchase
paper, Ac., were visited, but noth
ing of the kind was found, nntil a visit was
paid by the chief, with officers Osier and
Black, to the-paper warehouse of Mr. Abra
ham Rapp, in Short street*, where was dis
covered tons of old waste paper, such as
filed letters, pamphlets. &e., from the offi
ces on the Ilill, together with 180 vol
umesofthe Adjutant General's Report
for 1865, wit : h the covers torn fiom them,
and 200 volumes of the Statutes of the
United States at large, with the Treaties
with Foreign Nations, Ac. Ac. These
latter volumes were in unopened packages
having been received from the Interior
Department, Washington, D. C., only
three days ago, addressed to "The Gov
ernor of the State of Pennsylvania." The
Statutes are published by Little, Brown
A Co., Boston, Mass., at a heavy cost to
the Government, they being valued at $5
pt>r volume. Hut the above, though it
would seem to have well recompensed any
ordinary thieves, did not satiate the crav
ing appetite of the pilferers on the Hill.
Several thousand copies of the Legislative
Record, which according to Mr. Bergner,
were only delivered to the Librarian of
the Senate on Wednesday last, were found
with the plunder, as was also discovered
a large number of the reports of the Board
of Claims, of the Military Department, of
the Executive Officer, and to cap the cli
max, the "loyal pilferers" even sold to Mr.
Rapp a number of mail bags belonging to
"Uncle Sam!" Loyal men 1 with your
loyalty pocket deep! Honest, virtuous,
upright men, philanthropic Christian gen
tlemen —adherents to the "God and moral
ity" party, has it come to this? But, to
return to the "manipulations." Officer
Campbell, upon.the information which be
received, and after consulting with the
proper parties, arrested a man styling him
self, "Captain" A. J. Rupp, messenger in
the Adjutant General's office, who has
been known in community for some time
past as a loud-mouthed Abolitionist, ever
prating of loyalty and "grand moral ideas."
This is the Ctristian gentleman who is al
leged to have "gobbled" the one hundred
and eighty volumes oi' the Adjutant Gen
eral's Report, How long Rupp has been
engaged in his dishonest peculations we
are unable to say, but we "suspect" that he
has made an exceedingly good thing out of
the merely ornamental position of messen
ger of the Adjutant General's office.
Mr. Abram Rapp, the paper dealer, at
his hearing before the Mayor yesterday
morning, stated that he had purchased
books, paper&c, from time to time of the
man Rupp' of A R. Sharp, who claims to
be Assistant Superintendent of the Capitol
grounds, and of two young men connected
with the House of Representatives named
William Cooper and Albert Cooper. All
of the above parties were before the Mayor
yesterday, as was also William J.JLucas,
Thomas Numbers, and William Styers,
who are employed in different departments
upon the bill. Rupp, and Sharp entered
bail in the sum SOOO each, to answer the
charge of larceny at court, and the brothers
Cooper, were bailed by John A. Smull for
a further hearing this (Saturday ) morning
at 10 o'clock. Lucas, Numbers and Styers.
were bound over to appear at Court and
testify in the cases, while Mr.-Abram Rapp
the paper dealer, entered bail in the sum of
SIOOO, for his appearance at.court to an
swer the charge of receiving stolen goods.
The police are making every effort to
ferret out further particulars of the trans
actions of the thieves, and we expect to
hear of further developments in thn course
of a few days. We need not continue, as
we could at length, to recapitulate the op
erations of the "cormorants" who have iri"-
, fested the hill like "blood suckers" during
the past few years, but we would remark,
that justice demand thai there shall be no
hushing up of this matter —but that each
and every party implicated shall answer at
court, and if found guilty, let the law be
vindicated, and sentence given to such an
extent, as will serve to break up the gefari
ous and villainousapeculations, which have
so detracted from the fame of our State
Legislature.
We will simply add", that the thanks of
the people of this city, and, in fact, of the
Jkmmmm whb, arodae to - Ohta#"**#
Police, Bernard- Campbell, and officere 0-
ler and Black, for the arrests made, add for
4he prompt discovery of facts, which, we
hope, will eventually lead to the punish
ment of the guilty parties.— Pat. <k Union.
LOYALTY—WHAT IS IT.
The following article from the Phila
delphia News —an old line whig and con
servative Republican paper—contains no
much sensible talk to a class of fanatical
"ignorant block-beads" iu this region, of
whom tl\e man Fraily is a type, that we
jgivft iq. ,tbft Xtewacrathut with,
no purpose of dignifying, not making him
appear more contemptible. Au attempt
to do either, would certainly be a waste
of time and space.
The News says :
Mr. John C. Fraley, of Mehoopany,
Wyoming County, writes us saying that
when he subscribed for the Dollar Weekly
News, two years ago, be thought it was a
loyal paper; buttnat he has recently con
cluded that it is not, and he, therefore, di
rects it to be discontinued. This is all
right, of course. Mr. John C. Fraley is
entitled to entertain just such opinions as
he pleases in regard to the News or its
editor, and if his subscription is paid up,
we shall be square. But Mr. Fraley's
present opinion of the News is suggestive,
and we are hence induced to inquire wheth
er or not he knows what it is to be loyal.
Divesting this word of the verbiage that
has accumulated around it, the meaning of
it is simply to be true and faithful. To
what are we required to be true and faith
ful here ? To all our obligations, whether
they be domestic or political. If a man is
faithful to his wife, he is loyal to her ; if
he is not, he is disloyal. It ho is faithful
to the government under which he lives,
he is loyal ; if he is not, he is disloyal, and,
therefore, a traitor to that government.—
Is the Philadelphia News faithful to the
government of the United States ? What
is the government? Is it Congress ? Is
it the Supreme Court! Is it the Presi
dent ? During the war it was taught that
the President is the government, and
hence many persons who failed to agree
with Mr. Lincoln, and did not suppoit
him, were then denounced as disloyal.—
But neither Congress, the Supreme Court,
nor the President can be considered as the
government here, but we confess that an
effort is now being made to have the for
mer recognized as the supreme power.—
We claim that these three elements to
gether constitute the government; that
whilst each is possessed of certain restrict
ed powers under the Constitution, all must
act in unison to form the government to
which the loyalty of the citizen is due.
Congress can commit treason just well
—or as bad, perhaps we ought to say—as
an individual can, and when it does com
mit at} act of treason, it is tie duty of the I
executive of the nation to inteVpose his I
power as such against it, ju..t as it is the |
duty of Congress to oppose the power of j
impeachment against tlie President, or a 1
judge of the Supreme Court, for an act of :
treason on the part of either.
But to whom and to what does Congress
owe allegiance; first and above all to the
Constitution, which is the sheet anchor of
our libei tics, and then to the people. Is
Congress loyal! No ! Why ? Because
it has set at defiance and overridden the
Constitution by doing that which it is de
clared in that instrument it shall not do ;
and because we refuse to join Congress in
its treason, Mr. John C. Fraley, of Me
hoopany, concludes that the Daily News
is not a foyal newspaper.]
But Mr. F. says he served threejjvears
in the war, and that he never ian away,—
We are glad to know this, and regret that
as much cannot be said of some other Radi
cals whom we know. But what did you
go into the army for, Mr. Fraley ? To fight!
Very well. And what were you to fight
for? The Union, eh ? Very good. You
and yeur hundreds of thousands of brave
comrades succeeded in saving the Union.
The government Congress and the Pres
ident together—declared that there could
be no secession, and that there should not
be. Together these combined authorities
declared that the only purpose of the war
was to maintain and preserve the Union of
these States, and under that banner you
enlisted. What are you doing now ?
Charging disloyalty upon ns, because we
stick to that platform. We went into the
war upon the same principle that you did,
not to abolish slavery, nor to confer the
right of suffrage upon negroes, nor to ele
vate an inferior race above a superior one,
nor for spoliation, or anything of that kind
but to preserve he Union, and sustain the
government in all its integrity. We ac
cepted the abolishment of slavery as an es
sential result of the war, but we did not,
and do not now. accept the new Radical
dogma that, whilst a State may rot secede
from the Union, it may yet be driven out
and given over to a military despotism.
During the war we had no sympathy
with the southern people in their rebellion,
and we resisted and fought what were call
ed "copperheads" because they had. We
have no more sympathv with rebellion now
than we had during the war ; but we have
| both sympathy and pity for a fallen and
penitent former foe. We resist the "cop
perheads" now, just as we did whilst the
war was in progress, but instead of finding
them in the locofoco party, as of yore, we
find them in the Radical party. It makes
no difference to us where the enemies ot
our country are found, we are agamts them,
and hence we are ready to test our loyalty
to the Constitution and the government by
every act of our life. We advise Mr. Fra
ley, and all other soldiers who fought in
the army of the Union, to try and under
stand the position of Congress and the
President. The time may come when they
will be called on to shoulder the musket
again, and take their places for or against
the government, and we pray God that,
when such a contingency occurs, they may
embrace the right, and oppose the wrong.

THE NEWSPAPER.—A child beginning

A newspaper in one year is- worth a

A GENTLEMAN AND Two LADIES GO I
OVER THE MILL DAM AT PHILLIPSBURO. — i
A short time ago, during the high waters '
a gentleman unaccustomed to the use of
oars, whilst on a visit at Mr. Benj. Ilulse',
residence, ventured out upon the Wallkill,
above the Phillipsburg Milldam, in a skiff,
in company with two ladies, one of them
Mrs, liulse, the mme of the other we have
not learned. When faialy out upon the
stream the current was found to be so
strong as to entirely baffle the efforts of
an inexperienced oarsman to head the
boat up stream, and presently it was waft
ed rapidly downward towards the falls,
and passing it, the boat turned over, pre
cipitating the parties in the angry waves
some ten or twelve feet below the top of
the mill dam. The gentlemen managed
to get to the shore, but the two ladies
were rapidly carried down stream by the
water, Mrs. Hulse most of the time under
water, but her companion was more for
tunate, and was able to keep her head
most of the way above water. In this '
condition they floated down to the vicinity
of the Phillipsburg Bridge, some two or
three hundred yards below the falls, into
shoal water; At this point Mrs. Hulse
was rescued, in a drowning condition, by
Mr. John Mead, who had witnessed the
concurrence from the mill door, while .Mr.
George White, plunging into the stream
from the opposite river bank, performed
the same friendly office, for the
other exhausted and drowning lady.
Mrs. Ilulse, however, suffered most,
and,for a time gave way to fainting
first from violent purging and vomiting.
The whole party may congratulate them
selves upon their rescue, and wiil proba
bly long remember their boat excursion up
on the Wallkill. — IJonexdale Monitor,
To PCBIFV A SINK. — In hot weather it
is almost impossible to prevent sinks be
coming foul unless some chemical prepar
ation is used; One poynd of copperas dis
solved in four gallons of water, poured
over a sink three or four times, will com
pletely destroy the offensive odor, As a
disinfecting agent to scatter around premises
affected with any unpleasant odor, nothing
is better than a mixture of four parts dry
ground plaster of Paris to one part of fine
charcoal, by weight. All sorts of glass ves
sels and other utensils may bo effectually
purified from offensive smells by rinsing
them with charcoal powder, after the gross
er impurities have been scoured off with
sand and soap.
lt is intimated that the reason the Pre
sident was not impeached was because Ben
Wade would have been his successor, thus
standing in the way of colfax and half a
dozen other greedy aspirants. It is gen
erally understood that if Ben once got in
be couldn't be got out during life.
