To.al No. Del. \. !.176

The great issue before the people is,
whether all the powers of Government
shall be concentrated in the hands of the
General Government-the States being re-
'duced to the condition of counties-and q
consolidated despotism be thereby estab-
lished; or, whether those rights of local
selt-government which our fathers enjoy
ed and which we Inherited from them, and
without which there can be no real liberty,
no wise government, no public economy,
no light taxation, shall be preserved
A powerful faction, represented bya ma
jority in Congress, have conspired to over
throw the free and beneficent Institutions
of our fathers, and to substitute therefor an
aOligarchy of privileged classes, crushing
the mass of the people and all individual
liberty, under the weight Of despotic and
unrestricted General Government. To eff
feet thisobject they, in plain violation of
the Constitution, exclude eleven States
from representation in Congress, and insist
upon comforting upon negroes the right
to vote--not out of regard to the negro,
but because they expect to be able,
with their money, to control his vote, and
thereby perpetuate their party ascendepcy.
Let every man who is opposed to the
schemes of the conspirators, who cherlshes
the institutions founded by our fathers,
who appreciates the necessity and benefits
of local self-government, who is opposed to
seeing the great State of Ohio shorn of her
| dignity and reduced to the dependent con-
dition of a county, or who is opposed to
Negro Suffrage, join with the Democracy
in rescuing our country from the grasp Of
the Malignants. '.IH

Fenian.

Whence the term? is an inquiry, of late,
the Fenian organization having become SO
formidable, widespread and threatening to
a gouty old gentleman named "Bull." 1t
is related that the ancient Fenians or Fin
mis- men" make no inconsiderable figure in
the earliest annals of Ireland, and seem to
have been the warriors of their day. Their
great leader Finn, says Pinkerton, in his
inquiry into the history of Scotland, ''was
man of great talents for the age, and OF
celebrity in arms. His formation of reg
ular standing army seems to have been d
rude imitation of the Roman legions in

prevail with regard to the Freedmen's Bu-
reau bill.
Many papers have said that /, read the
bill to the President. Now the Governor
asserts that you and read it to him section

misinformed.

converse with the President with regard to
these recommendations, but never read OF

passage.
Your denial of having said to Governor
Brownlow that you and | read the bill tC
the President is implied in your letter; Ger.
tainly, no such joint reading as that re-
ported ever occurred.

Sharp Practice Of Secretary STAN
--.--- ---L u--L- ION. /. L --LM. .----L

Another evidence OF very sharp minis
terial practice upon the part of Secretary
Stanton has Just come out, and over which
large number of officers now in the city
are waxing very wrOth. It seems that Ma
jor Generals Sherman. Thomas, Meade and
Sheridan, who were some time ago appoint
ed Board to examine into and determine
the qualifications and merits Of regular
army officers nominated by Stanton for
Generals by brevet, have, at their late ses-
sion, decided adversely in every instance to
the claims of officers who have held beau
cratic positions during all or portion OF
the war. In the judgment of the Board it
was not sufficient that the officers applying
for promotion should simply have been
shown to have performed their duty, but
there must be some record of brave and
Jealous service in the field. immediately
upon receipt of this unfavorable report to
the hopes of Mr., StantOn's pets he intro
duced their list of nominations into the
Senate for confirmation, and before the
week was out had seen his Endorsement Of
ticially ratified by the latter body, in the
face of the report of the Examining Board,
which is still cunningly held back at the
War Department. BY this action the re-
cipients of this partial legislation will take
precedence in point Of seniority of brevet
over the officers who have passed the pre-
scribed examination and been recommend
ed to such promotion by the Board. Nat
urally there is much Indignation among the
latter class, which amounts to nearly a
unanimous determination to resign w ash

THE TWO HEN.

The York True Democrat, in discuss
ing the merits Of the oandldateS now be-
fore the people Of this State for the office
Of Governor, draws a parallel between
Geary and Clymer. From tPe time that
rebel cannon, says the Democrot, fired
upon our flag at Fort Sumpter, until the
last rebel persisted in the last ditch" OF
the dcsuuct Coniederacy, both of these
men were filing important positions in
the public service. General Ceary, with
his two sous, was at the front. risking his
life to defend the honor of the fag. Mr.
Ciymer was in the Senate Chamber, and
by voice ard v0t3 was aiding the enemies
OF his country more etiectually than he
could have done aad he donned the rebel
uniform and taken his place in the rebel
ranks. He voted and acted with that
party that said the South was guilty OF
10 crime in attempting to destroy the
Government; that the power of slavery
vas constitutional prerogative, possess
ed b. every State; that AIr. Lincoln was
a tyrannical usurper, seeking TO subver..
the Constitution, and destroy liberty that
derided the soldiers, calling them hirei-
Ings" and "mercenaries." end denying
them the right to vote; that done all in
its power to prevent filing up the armies
in the field, by encouraging desertion and
resistance to the draft; and ;hen, when
the end was in full view, had tho brazeu
efron,ery to call the war failure
The war was either right Q. rong. It
was high or holy struggle for rights Of
man, or it was the most stupendous and
terrible crime that ever convu!Sed society.
The Government Of the United States
either performed the most glorious and
praiseWorthy act recorded il history, or
it was guilty Of the most henious and at
rucious wrong that was ever done. #
the South was ever justified in her course,
and the wax an oar part was unjust, then
Mr. Clymer is patriot, the lustre Of
whose loyalty is as TIE MONDAY sun But
# the Southern people had neither cause
nor excuse Tor what they attempted to Dc,
then Mr CiylHer and n.s associates will
90 down In history, covered with deeper
and blacker intamy than that which at.
taches itself 70 the name cf Arnold, and
the tories Of the Ecyolution. If the
cause of the Government was lust, ard
the struggle a holy one, ther the name
aud fame of General Geary will be iu,-
mortal. His courage, daring and gallant.
ry upon the many bloody feds Of the
war for the Union, are written with :
diamond pen upon the pages of history.
Shall! this gallant soldier be honored tor
the glorious deeds be has done il honor

REPRESENTATION.


The following startling facts from the
Doyestown MteRlycncer are worthy Of
the candid consideration OF every loyal
man
One Of the public questions which
comes nearest home 10 the minds of the
peopIe is that of cqualizing the basis OF
Congressional representation. The Re
construction Committee Of Congress, in
their report, which has just been adopted
by an immense majority in the House,
makes this a Precedent to the admission
Of the Rebel communities as States into
the Urion. 1t should be constantly kept
in mad that the demand of these recent
Rebels, and Of their Northern allies, :
thar they shall come back in:o the Cnior,
not as equals, but as superiors no: Tiald-
ipgthe same power as that welded by the
same number ofvoters in the loyal States,
5ut a vastly greater power, so that, man
for man. each late rebel shall count for
nearly twice as much III influence upln
all madonna! questions as loyal man, SO
that in the House Of Representatives
and in the election of President he
shall have two votes to the loyal man 5
one. How monstrous this demand is will
be apparent from the consideration of Il
few figures, which we herewith present /:
The total vote cast in 1860 in the eleven
Rebel States vas oaly SG7,02t. They
could not poll as many now within hun
dred Thousand. The two States of New
York and Pennsylvania cast at the last
Presidential election ,303 420 votes, OF
4G6, 404 more votes than the eleven Rebel
States combined. New York and Penn
sylvania have .jonr Senators the Reoel
States have trenty-t,co! New York and
Pennsylvania have .J!ty .fce members OF
Congress; the Rebel States will have sir
tt t,co Blu: even this does not fully show
the glaring injustice Of the case. Each
Rebel Congressman will represent only
14,O00 voters each Pennsylvania or New
York Congressman represents %, GOO vo-
ters. At the rate upon which the Reb-
els will be represented, Pennsylvania anu
New York oyyht TO have nt.teiy-t three
Congressmen instead OF only fifty i've
But after the appOrtlonment of 1870, I'll
less the basis Of representation shall have
been equalized, the Rebel States v III have
a still more uni Just advantage. for they
will have added to their basis of repre-.
