true. That the editor Of the Republican
did not intend his readers TO resist the draft
when he persistently used every effort to
cast odium upon the measure, may be E.
qually true. But that those followers and
readers so understood them is only too evi-
dent from the course they have pursued
Lamentable, indeed. has been the result
Three men sleep, to-day, under the snow,
who, had different advice been given, might
now be in full and joyous life. Lansberry
wanders vagabond with the mark of Cain
upon his brow, hiding in forests and caves,
from the pursuing officers Of the law. More
than hundred men have been arrested on
the grave charge of desertion. Citizens are
detained in custody, and many of themwill
be tried aud severely punished for violating
the Enrolment Act, while wives and sons
and daughters and parents and friends are
involved in sorrow, suffering and disgrace.
Sad, indeed, was the error of those who
supposed they could withhold men and mo-
ney from the Government, without beco1n-
ing amenable to all the consequences Of a
violation of law.

but an effort will be MADE to rectify one Of
the interpretations put upon the present
law by General Fry He decided last sum

put in substitute an ddUaace for three years
he shall be exempted for that time, the sub
stitute not being liable, but that when "a man
ecaited to be drafted, and was drafted, then,
although he furnished an acceptable substi-

H. B. SwooPE, ESQ, Clearfeld, Pa
Dear SIR | have the honor TO acknowl-
edge the receipt of your communication of
the Sth instant, with copies of the CLEAR
field Republican containing the editorials
tc which you refer, and as | do not deem it
inconsistent with the public interests, but a
duty which owe to myself and the Govern
nent which represent, | will, with plea
sure, briefly furnish you with the reasons
which prompted me TO require the presence
Of an armed force in Clearfield county.
In pursuance of the call of the President
of the United States, there were drafted in
to the service, in Clearfield county, on the
Sd day of October, 1864, 666 men. The
Board Of Enrolment, by order of the War
department, notified them to appear at
Brookville, Jefferson county, on the 10th of
the same month, where the Board repaired
for the purpose of holding the necessary ex-
aminations for the Eastern counties of the
district. OF the number drafted in Clear.
field county over $50 men failed to report.
Alter much inquiry and careful investiga-
ton into the causes of this failure, the
Board became satisfied that concerted action
had been taken amongst large numbers of
the drafted men, aided and abetted by many
citizens of the county, with a view to resist
the draft. Evidence was also laid before
me of the existence of widely extended
secret, oath bound association for the pur-
pose OF resistance proof having previously
been furnished thatlarge numbers of revolv-
ers and other arms, with unusual quantities
OF ammunition had been imported.
In addition to these facts, | was in pos
session, officially, that numbers of desert
ers from other counties in the State had re-
paired to and were lurking among the fast
nesses of Clearfeld county.
The Deputy Marshal, Captain NJ Kiernan,
stationed in that County, had from time to
time reported the impossibility of obtaining
aid or assistance from the inhabitants In the
prosecution of his duties-that, on the con
trary; deserters and non-reporting drafted
men were secreted harbored, and employed
In defiance of the laws, by many influential
citizens-that his efforts must prove fruitless
unless sustained by military force, and
that he had been repeatedly fred upon while
in the execution of his duty.
From knowledge of these facts I was
prepared when the drafted men failed to
report, to make requisition for troops up

INTERESTING PROCEEDINGS Gs.
Donation to Rev. L. Il. Gardner.

On Tuesday evening of last week, large
number of ladies' and gentleman from Clear
field and Curwensville, met at the Metho-
dist Episcopal Parsonage, for the purpose of
making donation to the Rev. J.. NJ GARD
NER, whose Ministerial term here has Just
expired. H. BUCHER SwooPE, ESQ, step
ped forward and spoke as follows:
Mr. GARDNER: The ladies and gentle
men by whom | am surrounded, have asst gn-
ed to me the pleasant duty Of presenting
you with this purse | hold IN my hand, CON
tanning the sum Of S250.00, which they beg
you to accept as a slight token of their es-
TEEN for you as a man. christian, and a
patriot. Holding different religious creeds,
as you may preceive, sir, they yet unite in
this testimonial on the eve of your depart
urer to evlnce, more especially, their appre-
ciatI0n OF your earnest and UusWervirg sup
port OF the great cause Of our country
which all have 50 much at heart That a
Minister Of the Denomination to which you
belODg-a Denomination which, it is not In
vidious TO say, has, perhaps done more than
any other not only to Christianza but 70 en-
franchise the races of men-shOuld yield a
cordial and hearty support TO the Govern
ment during the momentouS struggle in
which it is engaged was only to be expect
ed. But, sir, not alone did your loyalty and
patriotism find expression in fervid invoca-
tions to the Supreme Ruler of the Universe
for his aid and blessing throughout this fear
full tri al-not alone in eloquent and glowing
words of encouragement and exhortation TO
your People to render to the Government a
firm, united, and hearty support-but when
the State was invaded by a hostile foe. and
its Capital was threatened you were found
armed in the trenches, ready to assist in de-
tending our hearth and homes and on the
bloody field OF Gettysburg you knelt by the
side of the sons and brothers Of our neigh
bors and friends, ministering to their wants,
dressing their wounds, and preparing them
for the land of the Hereafter. Again, when
the news flashed over the wires, that our
brave boys were surrounded by the dreadful
carnage of the Wilderness, you prompt
ly left your home, and for weeks devoted
your time, strength, and energies in seeking
out and administering to the temporal and
spiritual wants of the heroic men who rep
resented this county in the fierce shock of
battle. For these things, sir, you are enti-
| tied to the lasting gratitude of the loyal peo-
| pie of Clearfeld Accept, then, this purse
not as a compensation for services which no
amount Ct money could repay-but as a
slight testimonial Of our regard, gratitude
and confidence.
There is peculiar fitness in our meeting
together on this evening, for this purpose.
The news which we have just received that
Charleston has fallen-that the starry flag
of the Government waves again in triumph
over the city in which the Rebellion had It's
origin-gladdens all our hearts, and lends a
zest to our intercourse which the usual in
centives to social hilarity would utterly fail
to give.

CLEARFIELD, Feb. Goth, 1S6:


D. w. MooRE, ESQ, Editor Of tie Clear
field Republican SIR: My attention hav-
ing been called to several articles in your
paper within the last few weeks, charging
that the soldiers were sent to Cleartield
county for political purposes. and at the in
stance Of certain ''Bepublican leaders, j
deemed it right and proper to address a note
to the Provost Marshal Of the District, ask
ing why, and at whose instance troops were
sent here. a copy of that note, with the
reply OF Col. Campbell, is herewith furnish
ed you.
That you were misinformed as to the true
facts, Is clearly evident from the statement
of the Provost Marshal The charge was
a grave one-one which, if true, should ex
pose the parties guilty Of it, to the Scorn
and contempt of all honorable men. 1t Is
difficult to conceive that any man could be
base enough. merely for the sake of politics,
to involve his neighbors, friends and fellow
scitizens in trouble-to cause them to ''be
dragged from heir homes. imprisoned and
punished. 1t is but right, therefore, and
only fair to your fellow citizens against whom
you have made charge so serious, and to
the Government and its officers, that you
should give to the statement of the Provost
Marshal the same publicity you gave to the
charge. The correspondence is furnished to
you for that purpose.
Yours, &C., H. BUCHER SwooPE.
