NornING FOR THE SOLDIER.


The great Clymer party of Berks county
has Just completed the nominations of the
county. One soldier presented his name az
candidate for Office but he was thrust asidc
without friend to urge his claims. This is
Just Whist we expected There is net a
Republican county in the State where the
claims Of our gallant soldiers have been
ignored, but why should Boy in Blue
apply TO Heister Clymer for assistance Z?
Did not Clymer himself and the county
OF Berks poll a large majority against the
law allowing the soldier to vote
Did not Clyymer vote against the law
supporting the family Of the soldier at
home, while he was fighting in the field
Did not ClymeT vote against the bill
allowing the soldier four dollars per month
additional pay?
Did not Clyrner vote against resolution
rendering thanks to the gallant soldiers who
defended his home and property, whilst he
was at home sympathizing with Southern
rebels
Our soldier friend, Col. Hannah, ought
to have known and considered these facts
before presenting his name for Senator IF
he comes up this way we can convince him
IN five minutes that if he had worn a rebel
uniform and fought for JEFF Davis" he
might have succeeded. Let him take up
his residence In a Republican county and
his services viii be duly rewarded -Har-

to doubt, an effectual barrier viii be placed
ia the way of the rebels and their Northern
friends. Although we have seen great
display Of vindictiYe abuse of this policy,
we have yet to see the first argument against
it. Indeed, it embraces nothing that the
late rebels have not promised-nothing but
what they have aYowed willingness to do.
LII there be any sincerity in their promises,
why do they not yield a cheerful acauies-

THE TWO POLICIES.

Those who clamor for tho. success of the
President S policy, go no further In their
discussions than the theory of the matter,
and indeed they go no further than the the
ory of the Congressional policy, whenever
they had occasion to contrast the two. Their
manner Of contrasting the two policies Is
somewhat thus By the President plan 1t
is sought to perfect the union of the States
by the immediate re-admission Of the Sena-
tors and members from the revolted States,
while by the plan of Congress it is proposed
to keep the insurrectionary States out OF the
Union for an indefinite period. Nothing in
fact is so far from the truth
So far as the President 5 policy is concern
ed the rebelious States might Just as well
have been represented in Congress during
the whole period of the war. 1t would have
been fully as reasonable to suppose that the
people of those States would have assisted
us in our efforts to put down the rebellion,
as it is now to say that they viii sincerely
help us to gather the fruits Of our victory
and put final end to the war and the ques
tions that produced it. It is. true that the
President has imperiously demanded and
obtained reputation of the rebel debt. But
can he or any Of his upholders say that such
rGDUQiallDH - d lu1il S6klACiAiGut va INC
question? By no means. That act was Sc
cured by coercion aud threats Of force, and
it has already been suggested, and may one
day become a living question, that such leg
islation is absolutely void and should not be
respected. But whether such suggestion
should ever be acted oa or not, the matter is
placed in the State Constitution where it
may be changed at any moment almost. 1u-
deed North Carolina has just rejected the
constitution containing this guarantee.
Grant for moment that the President 5
policy prevails. The revolted States arc
admitted to representation in Congress, in
larger humber than before, as a reward fol-
their rebellion, or in the language Of a Rich
mond paper, as the ''best fruits of the vic
tory All Federal control over the. loca
affairs of the South viii be removed. Where

GENERAL LOGAN.

The nomination of General Logan for
member Of Congress at large was a most
iudici0us and pFaiseworthy act. 1t was a
deserved compliment TO General Logan
himself, who had not sought the Office. 1t
was tribute Of gratitude TO the volunteer
army which went forth from Illinois to save
the republic. 1t was an acknowledgements,
of the most graceful sort, to that portion
of the State where General Logan resides,
fer the splended manner in which it gave
its adhesion to Republican principles two
years ago. 1t is no longer possible for the
johnson party to tamper with the soldiers
of Illinois They follow the same banner
in peace that they followed in war The
Republican party sustained them in the field
and now nominates one Of their bravest and
NEST trusted fellows for the first place on
the State ticket, and another gallant and
true soldier for the second, while the nomi-
nee for the thnd place has publicly declared
the pleasure he would feel in resigning his
own position to one of the heroes of the
late war. Here IS a Soldier Ticket, which
the soldiers themselves could not improve
if they should call the roll Of every regi-
ment that went to the field from Illinois =

NEW ENGLAND INFLUENcE.-T NeT
Y York Commercial concludes an article head
ed New England in Transition" as follows:
''There is not Legislature in the
Western or pacific States, and soon, per-
haps, there viii be none in the South, in
which New EngIanders dc not give the tone
upon subjects Of morality, education and
trade They may be too domineering too
straight laced, and too set IN their views, and
be altogether somewhat difficult to get along
with, on the easy tenure common to indis-
eriminate humanity but they are good to
build up States, and nations, found uniYer-
sites, on the enduring basis of Justice and
truth While we may regret that we may
never again know the New England of the
past, we rejoice in the knowledge that what
ever is true and vital in the principles and
characteristics of It's inhabitants is destined
to an pndying existence upon larger and
grander sphere.
