Sale Of the Democracy.

On Thursday last the Legislative con-
ferees of the democracy that was met the
JohnsoniteS in this place, and consumma-
ted the intrigue and bargain of selling the
democracy to the new party by adopting
Mr.. Miller Of Huntingdon and Mr.. Will
lis OF Lcwistown as candidates for the
Legislature. II any one still has doubts,
the following editorial article from the
Washington Star of Friday last, one of
Johnson's organs, ought to satisfy him:
The '" National Union Party. The
name adopted as above, by the great ma
tiOnal party which has arisen for the sal
Vation OF the country, is accepted euer?l-
1Cherc as one exceedingly felicitous and
appropriate. 1t correctly designates the
purpose had in view; it is as broad and
comprehensive as the nation itself: and
while rallying all patriots to common
standard, has no tint or rust of old party
names or shibboleths.
Fall in, old democrats! here's a fine
chance for your services as hewers of wood
and drawers of water to give a few men
office who'll thank you for your votes, but
don't care Il - for YOU otherwise.

Our LegislatiYe Ticket.

The denomination of JAMES VI. BROWN,
we are pleased to say, gives general salts
faction in this county. Whatever differ
ence of opinion existed previous to the
meeting of the county convention, was
definitely settled by the action OF that
body, and among his most ardent sup
porters now are most ofthOse who honest
lv onnosed him at the delegate election.
So far as our county is concerned, we can
hold our own, and make some lnroads
into the new party. We see attempts are
made to connect Mr. Brown with the
Senatorial question, and in Juniata and
Huntingdon the cop papers set him down
as IA Cameron man. In this county we
wisely discarded question only calcula-
ted to foster discord, and we think we can
safely say our member occupies common
ground with ourselves in relation to this
matter. which is this: We have no fav-
oritc first. last and all the time. When
the time comes we are willing TO look
around among the prominent men who
stand faithful TO the great truths enuncia-
ted by the Union Republican Party-to
counsel with members of that party from
all parts of the State-weigh the status of
candidates, and, if close vote, their
probability of success in convention. if
nominated and then, whether the
choice fall upon Curtin, Cameron, or
any other sound Union man. WE ARE
FOR HIM, and this we are confident is the
sentiment of nine-tenths of our voters
In Huntington county, HENRY 5.
WHARTON, young man of fine talents
and business habits, received the nomina-
ton through the practice inaugurated
during the past few years of making their
members yearlings. Such at least is our
view of the matter, as it was evident that
the friends of Mr.. SwOope who was de-
feated last year for denomination this
year defeated Mr.. Baker. We regret
that such was the case, but when Hun
tingdOn county presents us an unOb-
jectiOnable candidate nominated by the
usages of the party, it is not our busi
ness, nor that of Juniata, to go behind
the nominating body and inquire whether

Of Huntington county do theirs-as we
believe they will-for if local differences
are once introduced, and district members
put in jeopardy, minority might as well
at once dictate who we should vote for
even in a township election. We believe
our friends in Huntingdon county could
easily trace their apparent difficulty to
the introduction of q side issue, and as
wolves who were loudest in creating that
issue have now thrown off the sleeps

rejecting men that, while perhaps innO-

Presidential Dignity.

From the day Andrew Johnson was in
augurated Vice President, every Christian
man in this country, and every we'll
wisher of its prosperity, has had cause to
blush for his course. When Booths MUIR
derous hand made him President, it was
hoped he had repented in sack cloth and
ashes, and that he would realize the fear
ful responsibility resting upon him to
preserve the dignity of this nation; but
his 22d Of February harangue, couched i'm
language which would do no honor to
any political stump orator, dispelled those
hopes, and men can now only look on
and read in wonder. All our Presidents
heretofore preserved at least a studied
dignity when they appeared before the
public, and seldom INDUCED in egOtisti-
cal displays or used language derogatory
to their high position. Many of our
readers will no doubt remember with
what establishment they read a certificate
of James Buchanan, certifying to the
good qualities of a keg of Monongahela
whiskey forwarded to him by Pennsyl-
vania firm, and how generally that act
was condemned, for although certificate
from simple James Buchanan would have
been passed over without comment. such
one from James Buchanan, President
of the United States" was looked upon
as derogatory to that office and discredi-
table to the nation. Under Johnson how
ever all this is changed. Incorporate
language, coarse attacks on Congress and
all who differ from him, references to the
Deity next to blasphemous, and vulgar
egotism that would shame candidate for
constable, mark too many of his address,
es. On his present journey, ostensibly to
lay the corner stone of a monument to
Douglas, man whom he most bitterly
assailed while living, he has almost inva-
riably started out by declaring he would
not make aspeech, then launched out into
dhgressions on my policy" warmed up
until he denounced Congress, either as
usurpers, disunioniSts, or some other foul
mouthed epithet, and wound up bv telIino
his hearers the old story that he had been
tailor!

Rules for Pension Claims,

Claimants for an increase of pension

dollars per month additional for each
child under sixteen years of age, will be
required to prove the dates of birth OF
such children in the manner required in
the case of an application on behalf of mi
nor children, as prescribed in previous
forms and instructions. This explana-

Commissioner Of Pensions, lest the in
structions under the act of July 18th,
1866, should be misconstrued on account
of the omission of this requirement from
said instructions.

man, vulgar ditcher, whose high rank
was not the reward of merit but the re-
suit of fortuitous circumstances" Then
it goes off as follows:

henceforth to acknowledge these Yankee
hybrlds as countrymen, and it would be
gratifying to Southern gentlemen to know
that some of them had just claims to de-

baP The Selinsgrove Times naturally
Kearns, who it tinsists are, like itself, dem
ocratic, and winds up an article on the
Gazette as follows:
1.-The Gazette still has "soldier on the
BRAIN" with which it will doubtless be
troubled till after the election. We are
not afflicted i'll that way, though we have
quite n goodly number of soldiers names
upon our subscription book who will all
vote for Clymer and a white mans gov
eminent at the next election. Nor do
honorable soldiers endorse a party so mean
that will submit to their members in Con-
gress voting themselves $4,000 extra pay
for few months service and to the SOL
diers only 500 for three gears ~
In the first place, more democratic
votes, in proportion to numbers, voted for
an increase of salary than did republicans;
and oil the johnson members voted for
it. Secondly we acknowledge to have
"soldier on the brain" all the time. and
had the soldiers as body been wise they
would have secured two-thirds of all the
civil offices in this State for many years
to come. But led on by designing Off
GERS, many privates were induced to join
Clymer clubs as soldiers, thus giving
countenance to one who during the war
had no voice in their favor, and who vo-
ted against increasing their pay, while
his opponent was not only a brave and
gallant soldier but in every respect the
equal, if not superior, of Clymer. In do
ing so, the privates threw away their own

they did in the war, do the hard work,
while those who misled them will reap

18th Interrogatory What rate OF
duties in the tariff will, in your opln
ion. place You as Il manufactures IN
fair competition With the foreign ma
ker of the same commodity
Answer: 70 put the domestic on
perfect equality with the foreign man
ufacturer of iron, in all respects, he
should be protected to the extent of
the difference in cost of capital and la
Dor, here and abroad. and all taxes di-
rect and indirect paid by the Ameri-
can product, from which the foreign
is free 1t is conceded by the British
iron masters that we pay three dollars
for labor that costs the English manu-
facturer but one The capital neccs-
sarY to build and stock iron works,
owing to the higher cost OF materials
and labor and higher rate OF 'nf>rFsf,
costs Us three times as much as IL does
him. and consequently, to put US on an
equality in these respects, we should
be protected to the extent OF at least
two.thirds Of the actual cost of our
product. 1t has been shown that the
taxes paid to the Government on
ton of American iron isS Sl6 %; to this
add the difference IN cost OF labor and
capital in this country, and you will
find the amount necessary to put the
American manufactures in fair com
petition with the foreign maker"
18th Interrogatory What is the
cost Of making pig metal in England,
and what in Scotland also rails, com.
mon bar, &c, as far as you know!
Answer: | can only judge Of the
cost of some Of those articles By the
extremely low price at which they are
sold, and the mammoth fortunes accu,
mulated by the manufacturers AT
present cost of labor, Welsh rails are
not costing the manufacturer over S25
per ton.
The cost of Scotch pig is hard to es-
innate. but as it is now selling from
S13. 80 to S14, and is understood to pay
a large profit to the maker, it cannot
cost more than SO to Sll, and proba-
bly, less than that
The English manufacturers are wise
Iy cautious about disclosing the secrets
of their business, or the cost Of their
product, and in all the publications |
have been able to see there is not as
much given, leading to a correct esti
mate Of the cost OF making iron, as |
have given you in answering these in
terrogatories. Yet | find it admitted
by some of them that pig metal can be
proftably made in certain districts Of
England at e per ton.
goth Interrogatory What will be
the effect upon the wages of laborers
and operatives, if gold should come to
par without an increase of duties on
foreign goods?
Answer: There must be CORES
ponding decline Of wages, or manufac,
turing must cease. The latter is most
likely to occur-muny thousands will
be thrown out Of employment, and
much suffering will ensue.
2lst Intcrrogatory If any general
decline in prices of American manu-
factured commodities shall take place,
can the present rate Of wages be main
tanned
Answer: So far as the manufacture
of railroad iron is concerned, | would
answer emphatically no.
