They Want More Blood.

The New York Methodist Protes-
tant Conference, now in session in that
city, is very much dissatisfied with
the government" They passed a SER
les ofresolutions of a political charac-
ter, one of which declares, that, "ex-
pedicncy, constitutional law, justice
and the Bible, all demand that at least
some Of the principal leaders of the
rebellion be punished with death"
We presume if He whom they profess
10 follow, were upon earth, would
again exclaim; Fatherforgive them,
they know not what they do. Why
they put "expediency law and justice" +"
before the Bible; VIC cannot conceive
unless they are more carnal than
righteous. We think that the Bible,
justice, constitution, law and proper
respect for their calling demand, that
they should mind their own business,
and quit meddling with that Of their
noighbors. These first class hypo-
critics only one year ago, proved by
the foregoing catalogue of ethics, that
it was crime to oppose the govern
ment, now; they turn around and
prove from the same documents, that
it is right. We wonder how long those
sclfrighteous "bgmmers," will sue
cecd in decciving the people Of this
country.

Georges Answer.

"The Uearfeld Republican denoun-
ces Gen Gcary as a political renegade.
How about Hester Clymer, your can
didate for Governor, who deserted the
Wing party few years since? Is be
a political renegade too? Let your
readers know, George "-JourHdI.
The editor Of the Journal should
not reprOach Mr. Clymer, for doing
what he done himself-desert "the
Wing party afewyears since" There
is however this difference between
the two gentlemen. Mr.. Clymer in
joining the Democratic party, joined
a patriotic party-the old "Union
savers"-and in advocating its doc
trlnes, obeyed the injunctions of
George Washington, Thos. Jefferson,
and the other founders Of the Repub-
lie, thereby laboring to save us from
civil war, debt and dis-union, and has
lead the life CT patriot, while our
neighbor after "deserting the Wing
party" joined in with a set Of politi-
cal harlots-a mere cabal, who have
no more respect for Constitutions, or
1he prescribed rights Of an American
citizen, than a swine has for pearls.
And IN their wild crusade against lib
erty and law, during the past five
years, the editor and his new allies,
have disobeyed every Injunction ofthe
fathers, and in the language Of inspi-
ration, we are led to exclaim, "when
the wicked rule, tho land mourneth." F"
Every battlefield and fortress, are so
many, mile-stoncs and guide-boards,
along the political highway Of our
distracted lane, bearing witness to this
fact. The difference therefore be-
tween Mr.. Clymer and the editor of
the Journal, is, that when the Whig
party committed suicide, the former
Joined hands with those who advoca-
ted the Constitutional rights Of all,
and exclusive privileges of none, nor
Of any section, and is now put into
the field as the standard bearer of the
friends of the Union and of the white
race The latter has seen fit to iden-
tify himself with the dis Union party
a party which has been waging gi-
gantic war, against the Constitution,
and for a dissolution of the Union, for
the past five years, which has now,
however, been transferred from the
field, to the forum, by way of variety
and a war Of races has been substltu-
ted for the fields of Bull Run, Frcder-
icsburg and Gettysburg Mr.. ely
mer, is, with all his influence, in favor
of he Union of these States, and the
supremacy Of the white race; while
our neighbor, in connection with that
"lifc long Democrat" Gen. Geary,
Stevens & Co, is laboring to destroy
both.

A Photograph

]. W. Forney, d. D., speaks OF OK
President Pierce rcproachfully, as
s'hidden away from human sight and
memory" When we remember the
eagerncss with which Forney Travelled
from Pennsylvania TO New Hampshire,
as soon as he was certain Of General
Piercc's election, to obscquiously offer
his service to the President elect the
persistence with which he followed
him-fawning and begging him recog-
milton as a confidant-his anxiety to
be chosen Clerk of the House of Rep
rcscntativcs and the repugnance OF
members to voting for him-how that
repugnance was overcome through the
exertions of the Presidents nearest
friends, friends by whose efforts he
was at last chosen clerk with its large
emolumcnts and patronage at his COM
mand-whcn we recollect too how as
siduously he labored to gain the per
sonaI regard of Gen. Pierce, his full
confidence in all respects. by assuming
to be his most devoted advocate-how
he was favored by Gen. Pierce's adj
minstration-how sycophantic he was
to every member Of it, and how eager
he was for pelf-how he tcased for
amore" until Judge Nicholson was
persuaded TO allow him a percentage
of the profits from the public printing
which Welded him fifty or sixty thOus-
and dollars-and finally, how, after he
had obtained all that was to be had
through the influence Of the President
he deserted him for one whom hC
whiningIy said had been father to
him, and then, in turn, deserted that
"father"-we say, when we remember
all this, and more Of the same charac.
ter, we can feel only contempt for an
migrate who would bruse the bosom
that sheltered and warmed him

in DanviIle, was 65; NV the Demo

THEN AND Now.-he Abolition
leaders for the past fv years have
slandercd and abused Ex-presldcnt
Buchanan, without stint, because he
took no steps as they lllege during
the fall of 1860, and the pring of 1861
to prevent the Southern States from
scceding. Coercc them was the cry.
All power was with TIC Executive
&c. Mr.. Buchanan claimed he had no
authority, and Congressbeing in ses-
sion at the time, failed TO grant a
remedy. Then accordingto the theory
of the disunionists tie Executive
possessed regal powers, and congress
was but a cipher in the t'inity of tho
state row however without any
change in the principles, or the written
forms of our system of government,
these same men. claim tlat President
Johnson, because congress isin scs-
sion; has but limited powers, and that
everything belongs to coigrcss. The
conduct of Stevens & Co, 10 day when
compared with that Of 1861, proves
that they are either knaves or fools.

con, who presidcs over the destinics
Of Church, Sunday School, and the
columns Of the Journal, would know
ingly publish anything devoid of
truth but his issue Of last week, If
there were no outcroppings OF a simi-
lar state Of things heretofore, entirely
dispel this idea In the number of
his paper alluded to, he publishes some
Of the proceedings of the State Senate
in 1864, to show that the Cooper
head candidate for Governor" Hester
Clymer, voted against increasing the
Soldiers wages, and that he opposed
vote of thanks to Gen. Grant, and
the officers and soldiers under him,
giving the yeas and nays, which stood
16 to Is. The reader will please rec
oIlect, that this was during the time
the Senate was un-organizcd, when
the seeds of dis-union, which had been
sown years before, were just begin
ming to peep through the ground, but
are now SO fully developed that
the government calls tho leaders OF
the then conspiracy, "traitors." Thus
while Mr.. Clymer, and his fifteen
Democratic workers were trying
to defeat these "traitors' in 1864, by
endeavoring to make them elect q
Speaker, as the law required, and in
which the dis-unionists have since ac-
quiesced, because they have not at
tempted TO Incorporate any act they
did, during this time, into the code of
laws, thus openly confessing, that
what they did was illegal and wrong,
and that Mr. CIymcr, was right, and
for this he is now arraigned by his
Christian neighbor, and his votes and
acts tortured TO suit quite another
purpose, from that for which they
were given. Such things might be
overlooked in q private, but when
committed by Major General, of the
inner sanctuary, we must be allowed
to dissent from the inculcation of such
morals
