disunionists. The compromise propositions
we're voted down by the Republican party
of the North, and the sword was appealed
to by the madmcn of the South.
As patriots, knowing that We have dis
charged our duty and our whole duty in
our efforts to avert the dread calamity, it
became our duty to stand by the Govern
mont, como veal come woe, and as if
moved, by one simultaneous impulse, the
whole Democratic party of the North
that party which never yet deserted the
flag of the Union when the Union was in
danger-that party which never yet urged
an enemy to welcome our brave soldios
"with bloody hands to hospitablc graves
that party which never yet refused to
furnish men and money to the General
Government to aid in its vndicating the
rights of our country or resenting insults
offered to the stars and stripes, that party,
true to the great principles which it has
ever protested, true to the Union, spoke
forth as enc man in favor of sustaining the
Government. For doing this the members
of our party are now stigmatized as "dough
faces" "cowards assuming the garb Of
patriotism," by these same men who have
been wont to ridicule Democrats as "Union
savers"-by men who hesitate not secretly
to appeal to the basest passions Of the
human heart to instigatc cowardly mob
to commit depredations upon the persons
and property of their fellow citizens, whose
only crime is that they are Democrats
We have asserted that the mass of those
who have gone forth to sustain the honor
of our flag are Democrats No honest man
dare deny it.-AHento,on Democrat.

Copy of Letter to Investigating
Committee.
HARRISBURG, May 0, 1861.
Daniel G.. Thomas, Esq;

HARRISBURG, May o, 1861.
Daniel G. Thomas, Esq;
Sir; Having learned from reliable
source, that few members of the Legisla-
ture had taken umbrage at the publication
of the enclosed dispatch, and that in conse-
quencc, committee of investigation had
been raised in order to ferret out the au.
thor, have deemed it proper, lest you
may become embarrassed in your arduous
duties, to say that l am the author, and
am both willing and able to assume the re-.
sponsibility.
In order to get at the truth of the inti-
nations contained in the dispatch referred
to, (and 1 presume that is the object aim.
ed at by the appointment of Committee,
it will be necessary to SO modify your res
olution as to cover all manner of corrupt.
ion that may have existed in the Legisla-
ture of 1861. In connection with this mat.
ter, | demand the privilege of summoning
the witnesscs-or, at least, to name them (;
and then, if l don't furnish sufficient cvi,
dence to convict and place in the Peniten-
tiary more than majority of the present
members of the Legislature, will stand
branded for the rest of my life as wilful
libeller and falsifer.
1t is due to Governor Curtin and his
friends to state, in the most emphatic man
ner, that neither he nor they had any
knowledge of the dispatch until it was pub.
lishcd.
In conclusion, 1 freely admit that the
dispatch should have been qualified in one
respect, and that is with regard to the few
honest men whose lot has been cast among
scoundrels.
Knowing that your constituents, and
the people generally throughout the coun.
try will look to you to aid and second me
in any effort may make to rid the Lcgis-
lature of villiany, I confidently appeal to
you, and through you to that body, for n
modification of the resolution referred to.
Yours, &C.,

loud for "Union candidate for Congress,

they betray their sincerity by opposing the
election of Col WRIGHT. Our neighbor

ostcnsibly in his favor, but that is only, as

DEATH OF Hon. THOMAS S. BILL
This eminent and distinguished politician
and jurist died in Philadelphia, on Thurs
day week, from the effects of cancer with
which he had been suffering for long
tine. Judge Bell was born in that city
in 1900, studied law with the Hon. James
NJ Porter, at Easton, and settled in West
Chester, where he practised and presided
as a lawyer and judge with great ability
and deserved distinction. He served as a
member of the Constitutional Convention
in 1887.
On the death of Judge Darlington, at
that time President Judge of the Fifteenth
judicial District, tho deceased was ap-
pointed his successor. In 1876 Governor
elevated him to seat on the bench of the
Supreme Court. After the expiration Of
his term in 1851, he returned to the prac-
tice of law. Soon after, be was appointed
President Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas at Easton, by Gov Pollock. lie

and in 1857 he was elected State Senator
from Delaware and Chester.

EXAMINATION OF THE SUPPOSED MUIR
DERER, CoRwIN,-On Tuesday; Esquire
Collins, of Dunmore, held an investigation
at the Mansion House, in reference to the
murdered woman found in the vicinity of
Indian spring, near Greenville. Her name
was Caroline Corwin. Her husband is
well known in Scranton, having relatives
here, 1t appears that the parties never
agreed, and they parted some time ago
The husband, whose name is VIM. Corwin,
went to Grecnville, and wrote his wife that
he had job there on the road, and wished
her to join him. She did so, and not re-
turning home, her friends instituted in
quiries, but could not discover her where
abouts, or any clue to her. The husband
left Greonvillc, and was arrested on sus-
picion of some foul play toward his wife
He was lodged in Jail, but after a time
released. Her relatives received an anon
ymous letter, stating if they would go to
a certain spot in the vicinity of Indian
spring, that her body would be found
Search was made but no discovery, Mrs
Bristol, at whose house the parties stopped
had presentiment that she was murdered
near their own house, and Sunday, when
walking in the vicinity of the spring, the
dog discovered the body, which was in a
terrible state of decomposition. 1t appears
that his letter to her was found and that
he led her away by false statements of
employment, a comfortable house and
other matters, which he invented to decoy
her down. The body was found with the
head closely wrapped in the shawl and a
large stone on the neck, and, no doubt, she
was strangled or suffocated From the
evidence, Corwin has been remanded to
Wilkesbarrc Jail for trial,

ConfeSsing their Object.

Mr.. Cassius NJ. Clay, whom Mr.. Lincoln
has sent to Europe to represent this coun-
try, has written letter to the London
Times, which is so well dissected by that
journal, whose comments we have publish
ed, that it is unnecessary to insert it. In
the course Of that letter, however, Mr.. Clay
has paragraph which, we presume, must
have been a slip of pen, probably occa-
stoned by forgetting for the moment that
it would find its way back to America.
He is endcavoring to coax John Bull to
forget his money, to "darn the expense
and stand by the great principle ofnegro
freedom, and in doing this he says:
GIVE overthrow that POLITICAL
ELEMENT in America, which has all
through our history been the studied de-
nouncer and real hater of the British ma.
ton, while WE have been always from the
beginning the friends of England. Be-
cause, though under different forms of
Government, WE had common sympathics
and common cause, and therefore a
common interest,""
If that is not letting the cat out of the
bag, we know not what is. "We'-Lin-
coin, Scwarc, Weed, Greedy, Clay & Co..
are trying to overthrow the Democratic
party, e that political elcment'i which has
all through our history been the real op-
ponent of tory principles and monarchical
doctrins, while We'-Lincoln, Seward
Weed ,Greely, Clay & Co.-have always
from the beginning, bean The Jrien"s @
England, for though there was a slight
difference in form, eve had common
sympatAy common cause, and common
Interest,"
We thank you, Mr.. Clay, for this candid
avowal. We know that you would never
have dared to say this in America, and We
are almost glad that Mr. Lincoln sent you
abroad, if for no other reason than to gel
this confession of your designs from your
lips.-Day Booh.
