mounted infantry were recently captured
by the rebels in very strange manner
The time aud manner Of the capture are
unknown. Neither tramped earth nor

TnF PARTY OF DECEIT. The following
resolutions passed the United States
House Of ReprcscntativcS~Fe February llth.
1861. by nearly unanimous vote:
Resolved, That neither the Federal Govern.
mcnt nor the people or governments of the
non-sIavehUlding States have purpose or a
Constitutional right to lrgisate upon or inter
tyre with slavery in any Of the States of the
Union.
Resolved, That those persons in the North
who do not subscribe to the foregoing propo-
sition are too Insignificant in numbers and IN
tuence to excite the serious attention or alarm
ofany portion of the people of the Republic,
and that the increase of their numbers and iu-
lucnce does not keep pace with the Increase
Of the aggregate population Of the Union"
Some CT the same men who voted for
these resolution which were adopted af-
ter the secession of South Carolina,
Georgia and other Statcs.-havc lately been
engaged at Baltimore in laying down a
platform of unceaSing war upon every
State where slavery is maintained Lin
coin himself declared in his Inaugural
that he had no constitutional right to in
terlere with slavery where it existed, yet
in the face Of his declaration and in viola.
tion of his oath to support the Constitu,
ton, yielding to the pressure Of the rad,
icals of his party, he has intertared with
it. What confidence can be placed in a
man who has no respect for his drclara
tions?

MILITARY CRUSHING CIVIL POWER. The
amount Of liberty which Abolition mill,
tary rule permits to white men in Mis-
souri,, may be seen from the fact that the
Judge of the Boon County Criminal
Court, whcrc several Abolition thieves
were to be tried for stealing negroes and
horses, has been served with an order
from ono Gen Fisk, forbiddiag the trial !
Thus has the Administration repudiated
the Declaration of Independence One of
the charges preferred against the King Of
Great Britain by the signcrs of that sa-
cred instrument was, that che has effect,
ed to render the military superior to the
civil power" Henry Clay says, "where
the military is superior to the civil pow
er, there is no freedom. A military
deSpotism rules"

CAN'T BE DoNE.-Geo. Wilkes, in his
paper, says that the nation cannot live
with Abraham Lincoln and Seward at its
head during the next terrible four years.
Even if honest, they are unequal to the
task and that they are not honest, is ev.
idcut in the arts they have devised to sub.
ju-atc the expression of the loyal masses,
in the name of the party they have labor.
ed to destroy" Wilkes is loyal, and his
testimony against the Administration
cannot be attributed to his copperhead
prejudices.

"LEr the Government take care Of the
rich, and the rich will take care OF the
poor" used to be a favorite idea with
the old Federal party, and is just now in
high favor with our lawmakers, both
State and National In order to induce
moneyed men TO take the bonds Of the
General Government these bonds are ex-
empt from taxation and the same is the
case with the bounty bonds under our
State bounty law. Farmers, mechanics,
and all men of moderate means have to
pay the full amount of their assessment,
and il bv chance one Of them lends few
hundred dollars to a neighbor to enable
him to build a house or barn, or to dis
charge a mortgage, he must pay tax for
so much money at interest. But the man
Of wealth-who is growing so much richer
by adroit financiering, in order to escape
the tax. collector, has only to put his funds
into these bonds. Thus the burden Of
taxation is rapidly sliding from the rich
to the shoulders Of the producing classes,
and in a very short time their condition
in this country will be as humi|iatiNg as
it is in England. - [Clcarfield Republican.

DEATH OF RoBERr HESDKRsoN.-We regret
TO announce that Robert Henderson, Deputy
Secretary Of State, died in Sacramento on Sat
urday last He was native of DunshsughEn,
Ireland, whence he emigrated 70 New Jersey,
in 1851, and from thence to this State in 1854,
and settled in this county. HO represented
this county in the Legislature of 1891 During
the first six years Of his residence 10 California
he was a regular contributor to the columns of
the DEMocRAr, and wrote for it a number OF
pleasing, graceful and eloquent articles, literary
and political, over the signature of "a Wild
Irishman," which attracted the attention and
elected the praise of the public, and brought
him into notice. He was modest, amiable aud
talented, and had he lived would have made
his mark in the State. He was about 80 years
Of age.

CHEERFUL PRoSrEcT.--Many Of tn

CHEERFUL PROSPECT Of the
leaders Of the Abolition party confess that
there is no probability Of the war ending
for some years yet This is encouraging
to tax payers. Our national debt is in
crcasing at the rate Of four millions of
dollars day,and with greenbacks dcpre-
ciatjne the increase must be greater every
day the war lasts. Can the laboring
classes of the country stand to have their
already cxorbitant taxes raised every
year? Are they not crushing enough at
present? Forney,t the mouth piece Of the
President, in recent letter to his paper,
writing from Washington, in speaking
about crushing the rebellion, says:
" The vast reserve nrmv-thc men in civil
life, the men of middle age, and the Youths
between seventeen aud eighteen wears, will, in
all probability, be called for 10 help to finish
the work"
Lincoln has called for five hundred thou.
sand more, and the call will be promptly
and enthusiastically responded to by our
volunteer companies and all who are in
favor Of vigorous prosecution Of the
war" Not to respond would be rehec-
tion on their loyalty, sincerity, patriotism
and courage. They have now a splendid
opportunity to exhibit these sterling
qualities. Will they embrace it?

The STATESMAN says three thousand
farms in Ohio are left without O man to

CHEF QUALIFICATION OF a LOYAL MAN.
The chief qualification of a loyal man,
just now, says the Boston Courier, is a
capacious swallow. If he can only be-
lieve that Lee is disheartened, his army
demoralized by hunger and panic struck
by Grants hanking movements; that
Butler has whipped Beaurcgard and
" holds the key Of Richmond" ne is all
right. If he cannot take all this in at a
gulp, he is a coppcrhead at least, and a
traitor at heart. The only compensatory
reflection he has is, that, at all events, he
isn't fool.
