We desire that our readers shall. 50 far as
We can aid them, through the columns Of
the DEMOCRAT AND STAR, be fairly informed
in reference to the feeling Of the Democrat
10 party, in regard to combinations with
other parties
fnl perusal Of the article, published IN thus
issue, entitled Congress Shall Radicalism
Triumph, &c. from the Lg'consing Gazette,
and, If we have been rightly educated IN
Democracy, we must say, that this article IS
worthy the attention and careful considers
ton Of the Democratic party OF this County
and District, at this time. As is stated In
that article, the great danger surrounding
the Democratic party at present, is dispo-
sition Of some to affiliate with the fishy, and
disafected Radicals. We have written ar
ticle after article, on this subject of john
sonizing the Democracy and, inasmuch as
we have been charged with selfshness, and
from those whom, we regret to say, we least
thought it, such as regarding our own inter-
ests solely, we deem itright and proper that
we give in our columns, from time to time,
the opinions Of the Democratic press of the
country. There appears to be such deter
mination and unanimity to- adhere strictly
and firmly to the principles of the Democ-
racy at this time, as has rarely, if ever, be-
fore been known We scarcely pick up an
exchange but what contains strong articles
against merging into my policy" or going
one step further towards it than the princi-
pies Of the Democratic party lead. Even
fusion, if attempted, must be donewith great
care Our opponents win surely not charge
editors and political writerswith 'sel6shness'
fear of losing subscribers, advertising, &C.,
where there isno johnson organ, as they
did us, in the firstnumber of the C0lun6ian7
We win see. We shall give the opinion of
the Democratic press, nevertheless, and, of
course, with our endorsement.

The National Executive Committee of the
Union Club, of which Senators DooLITTIE
and CowAN are members, has issued call
for the holding Of National Convention, of
the friends of President JOHNSON, in Phil
adelphia, on August the l4th 1866. THUR
Low WEED and RAYMOND are also prime
movers in this Convention. The object is to
have at least two delegates from each Con-
gressional District of all the States two from.
each Territory, two from the District of Co
lumbia, and four delegates at large from
each State Such delegates to be chosen by
the electors of the several States who sustain
the present Administration
We sincerely hope that this JOHNSON
movement may find supporters from the
Radical, Disunion party and gather sufficient
strength from their ranks to make them
respectable and influential organization We
have carefully examined the several propo-
sitions of the call for the Convention, to
which all who take seats in that body are
required to agree, and find that they are all
already embodied in the platform of the
National Democratic party. Therefore, while
the Democratic party embodies in their plat
form of principles all the good qualities of
the Conservatives, besides twice as many
more, and of still greater importance, it
would be folly, if not insanity, for single
Democrat to be found wandering from the
great ship of Democracy to the small bark
of Conservatism. But thus far, those who
are connected with the movement are from
the right source they are from the Radical
party, fountain which needs purifying and
we have only to say to those patriots who are
engaged in this good work of renovating
and cleansing the Abolition -Disunion party,
to go ON and if they shall become exposed to
dangers which they cannot withstand, by
still enlarging their platform, enlightening
their minds, and extending their sympathies,
they can retreat with perfect safety into the
ranks of the Democracy and take shelter in
her noble ship.

Geary's Brutality.

false colors, and set up by two strangers in
this community, not satisfied with adyoca-
ting the most degraded negrocracy and dis
union principles, or fighting like the Kilken-
ny cats with its kind, meanly and cowardly
tries to defame, behind their backs, men
born here. 4 gentleman of the highest re-
spectability visited York, his native place,
last week, after an absence of 40 years. He
was cordially received by his numerous rela-
tives and Old acquaintance. But as he
came from Virginia, the malignant Yankee
editors of this hbellous sheet makes foul
and false attack upon him. The cause of
this attack upon Mr.. Peter Hartman was
that while in company With his friends. he
related as part of his experience of John

notvery creditable to the Dssunion candidate

His Position.

IfGov. Curtin favors my policy" he is
grossly misunderstood at his home If it
were believed that he endorsed, my policy"
he would not have left in Bellefonte dozen
friends in the Republican party. We know
Mr.. Curtin. Heis not johnson man. He
is in no danger of becoming johnson man.
-PreSs
While the editors of the disunion organ
may know Gov Curtin better than we do,
yet they know as well as he that he is a
johnson man, or that he favors the policy
of the President, in preference to that of the
negro suffrage advocates-Stevens and Sum
ner. They know that some eightweeks since
when Gov Curtin was visiting his friends in
this place that he stated positively and plain
ly that he was johnson man. They know
that he told the associate editor of that paper
in the office of W. p Wilson, Esq. that it
was Stevens and Sumner and the radical fac
ton ofthat party, who were keping our coun-
try in state of excitement, and that if it was
not for them, we could have peace and union
any day. They know that one half of their
party bitterly denounced him for the position
he took, while the other half just as warmly
supported him.
While it is of little importance who or
what Gov Curtin supports, as his support
has no more stability about it than has the
position of weather-cock, yet it is well
enough to show up the contemplate lies to
which abolitionism will resort, in order to
leave the public under the impression that
harmony and good feelings prevail within
the ranks of their party. For the assertions
we have here made, we are responsible, and
are prepared to prove them any day
