If il shonld be decided to extend the 18th
street pier as suggested-and this extension is
equally important, whether the James Creek
line shall be adopted or the old line of the
canal is retained-then, in either case, IL will
become necessary to add TO one or other of the
above sums $1,000 for the construction of a
wall along It's eastern side. as before sug-
gested.
In connection with the foregoing improve

By GAIL HAMILTON.
Men of action : men of might,
Stern defenders Of the right,
Are you gfrIed for the fight?
Have you marked and trenched the ground,
Where the din Of arms must sound,
Ere the victor can be crowned
Have you guarded well the coast'
Have you marshaled all your host,
Standeth each man at his postp
Have you counted up the cost,
What is gained and what IS lost,
When the foe your lines have crostl
GIined-the infamy Of fame
Gained-a dastard's deathIess name:
Gained-eternity Of shame.
LOst-desert Of manly worth
Lost-the right you hal sy birth:
Lost-Iost Freedom for the Earth
Freemen. up the foe is nearing.
IIaughty banners high uprearing-
Lo ! their serried ranks appearing.
FreeInen on the drums are beating!
Will you shrink from such a meeting,
Forward! give them hero greeting,
From your hearths. and homes, and altars.
Backward hurI your proud assauIters:
lie IS not a man that faIters.
Hush the hour Of fate is nigh
BY the God who dweIIs on high,
Oh my brothers 10 or die

DoN'r Fit.-The first resolution of the
shoddy platform says:
: "Ths Convention here renew their pledge
untalterinq deootion to the Federal Union,
and repeat their determined purpose that
it shall be preserved"
Resolution five says:
"The work of reorganizing the late insur-
rectionary States to their proper relations
to the Union, necessarily devolves upon
the aw-making power. and that until such
action shall be taken no State lately in
insurrection IS sentitlsd TO representation an
either branch of Congress-"
1t is clear from this, that their 'unfal-
teriug devotion" is pledged only to that
'new Union" for which, little while ago,
they were all clamerous, and for the crea-
ton of which eighty raids, in the shape OF
amendments, are now organized against
the Federal Constitution in the Rump Con
cress. No matter how loud these original
sixteen starred Northern republic disun-
ionsts may prate about their ':devotion" to
the Union, so long as they join Thad Ste
vens in declaring that fragment of Con
gress may keep eleven sovereign States
out of the Union. They are not for the
Union but against it. They are simply
for the Capitalization ofpower in the hands
of few unscrupulous politicians for the
ignoring of the laws and institutions of the
land for the destruction of constitutions,
and the entire subversion of rights belong
inc to States and to individuals.
Andrew Johnson takes the view that
those eleven States were never out of the
Uuion, consequently that they need no
rcorganiziug" from a territorial condition
as above demanded; that the people in
arms having been conquered as in the Un-
ion, and as they are now being taxed and
governed as in the Union and as owing al
legiance to the Federal Government, they
are unqucstionably entitled to congression-
al representation and should have it-thc
only question TO be made being the quail
fications Of membership specified by the
Federal Constitution. This view the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania will sustain at the COM
ing election, by casting their votes for the
candidate Of the Democratic party Hon.
Hester Clymer-and not for Mr. Geary
who, although during the war occupying
a position against secession, is now cheek
by jowl with the disunionists at the 9th
er end Of the line" .

Nomination of Geary,

The friends of Tha1 Stevens, and bitter
enemies Of the government, met at Har-
risburg on Wednesday last, and nominal
ed John W. Gcary, as their candidate for
Governor. A few weeks ago, a Mr.. Mag
uire Of Philadelphia, on his own responsi-
biIitg, addressed letter to Geary to know
whether he would accepta nomination from
the Democratic party, Mr.. Geary answer
ed, in substance, that he could conscien-
tiously accept nomination from the De
mocracy, that lie had engaged in no en-
tanglements inconsistent with fidelity to the
Democratic party. This letter Of Geary's
was ihdustriousIy circulated in Harrisburg,
by the friends of other candidates before
the Republican disunion convention, and
considerable feeling was manifested in OPP
position to his pretcnsions. He. was nom
mated, however, on first ballot. The plat
form sustains the radicnl disunion views of
Congress, and Jegs Mr.. Johnson to join
with them in their reasonable designs, to
destroy the Constitution by amendments,
and keep the country from being united.

Election Case In Montgomery.

At last fall election, Wallace Hender-
son, Judge of the election in Lower Meli-
on, refused to receive the vote of Edmund
Holnlin, on the ground that he was de-
scrter, having refused to respond to the
draft. He was bound over, and the case
was tried last week at Norristown, before
Judge Chapman. The prosecution was
not to inhict penalty on Mr.. Henderson,
but to test the right of the Inspectors to
refuse such votes, and hence no malice was
alleged against the defendant The de-
fence was set up under the Act of Con
gress, forfeiting the citizenship of deserters.
The Court charged the jury that the Act
of Congress forfeiting the citisenship of-de-
serters, did not derive them of their right
to vote, and that Edmund Hollinlin had a
right to vote at the election in Upper Mer-
ion last October and that the only ques-
ton for the jury to decide, was, whether
Mr.. Henderson only made an honest mis-
take or knowingly and corruptly with i'm
proper motives decided against the vote
The charge was very emphatic.
AS there was no plea ofanalice or i'm
proper motives, the jury very properly re-
urned verdict that he acted in ignorance.

ING is the reward bestowed upon Senator
Cowan BY the so called Republican State
Convention, for lis manly defense Of Pres
ident johnson, and his devotion to the I'm
ion and the Constitution of the people
"17. Res0'rcd, That the Hon. Edgar
Cowan, Senator from Pennsylvania, by
his course in the Senate of the United
States has disappointed the hopes and has
forfeited the confidence of those to whom
he owes his places, and that he is hereby
most earnestly requested to reslgn."

that when Mr.. Cowan does resign it Will
only be to accept higher position !

The CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANs,-
During Lincoln's Administration, it was
beld by all classes of Republicans to be the
huty of the Democratic party to sup
port the President. What was duty then
is duty now; and we say to all patriotic
Union men in the Republican party who
were sincere and who desire to support
him now, that they have given evidence of
Of their consistency. Such men will not
complain at the Democratic party because
it is with them. They should rather re-
joice that such is the case, because it gi yes
additional strength, and answers to the de-
maud that democrats should support the

DEATH OF DR.. DAVID JAYNE-We
Yesterday published dispatch relative to
the illness of this gentleman at Philadel-
phia. He died in that city yesterday af-
ternoon. This gentleman was originally a
citizen of Salem n. j., bnt at an early day
of his life he moved to Philadelphia, and
started patent-medicine business, and by
advertising made an immense tortuRc.-
DIR. Jayne was a public-spirited man, and
has done more to ornament Philadelphia
than any of its native-born citizens. The
Doctor was born in Monroe county, Pa,
and his father was Baptist clergynen. =
He was taken to New Jersey, by his par
ents when quite.a child.

Of two hundred circles were represented,

crowded that they were broken down.

A QUEER Prescription. There are
two doctors living not remote distance
from Erie, Pa; they are the only doctors
in the town, and, of course, the best rela-
tons exist between them. One is of the
old school persuasion, the other ofno par
ticular school, but very learned in his way
as well as being an intense Republican in
politics. 1t so happened, in the course Of
the practice of the latter, that he was called
to see little boy who had swallowed a
cent coin. Never having had case of the
kind he was put to his trumps what to do.
Failing in every prescription he had adj
ministcred, as last and final resort he
made bold to call on the old school doctor
for his advice in the matter. The doctor
with much patience and attention listened
to the details of the case, and with great
gravity said 81 have had much expert
cnce in similar cases, and I'll tell you
what to do" With eyes and ears open
our Radical NJ d. listened with profound
attention-said the doctor: 81 suppose you
are aware that there has been great
scarcity of coin for long time past; now,
my theory is, that this coin has been driven
out by the paper shin-plasters that have
taken their place. My advice would be
that you take about five five cent stamps
make them into pills, one to pill, aud
give one every two hours; If that won't
drive it ont, | don't know what vii"

DECLINE IN RELlG1oN.-There are no,

over serenity vacant pupits in the State of
Connecticut. In the whole of the New
England States there are some three hue
dred in the same condition, with abolt five
hundred more, where the clergymen do
not earn day-laborer's wages. The true
reason of this is, religion itself has not de :
clined, but the Parsons took to spouting
politics about five years ago, and instead
of giving religious advice and instruction
to their congregations, they disgusted their
followers, and the result is, the war-parson
business is completely "played out"

loyal man is one who submits to the laws.

to this answer, and says that the ''mere

does constitute loyalty, if submitting to
