-. The coppcrheads Of Benton have un.
earthed the Cannon Of their late "Confed.
oracy," and arc making the old hills and
vnliies fslready historic Fishingcreek shake
with its thunder They are now wasting
The powder they had intended to use against
Bob Clark soldiers. -RepuJhcan.
The noise made at Bentap some few eve
nings since with cannon has injured the
memory Of p. John quito seriously, at least
60 much as to make him disown the soldiers,
that were brought into this county to in
timidate and hound down "copperheads, y
and call them "Bob Clark's." Now all we
have to say about the matter is simply this:
If the people of Benton had that Cannon
when the soldiers were brought here, and
have safely kept it ever since, it does not
speak well of the selection of soldiers, let it
have been made by either John or Clark.
Gen. .CADwALLApER,a "a West Point graduate,
skilled in all the ancient and moderan arts
and sciences Of warfare, with over thous-
and soldiers and nearly as many officers and
rhysters to back him, and not having been
able TO find any Cannon or powder is utterly
astonishing, and leaves US with plenty Of ev.
idence, if need be called, to prove the fact
that they were better drilled in searching
mp hen-roosts and spring houses. 1t is said
that the Cannon worked admirably well,
aud the powder showed signs Of having
been in the hands of parties who knew how
to "keep their powder dry" and when its
qualities were tested, it made thunder
ing" noise, fearfully disturbing the cquilib-
rum Of P. John. 1t is notorious fact,
that not ono pound Of po'cdcr ras erer
brought isto This county and sold for Leliger.
ent purposes. At least nothing was shown
to the contrary by the military satrap's
Court held at Harrisburg, before which a
number Of innocent, law.abiding citizens Of
Columbia County were araigned, tried and
acquitted. At whose instance was all this
done2 Upon whose afidavits were these
men held for trial? 2. John can, If he will,
fully explain.

DJa Ex-PREsIDEsT BUCHANAN was visit
ed at Wheatland on Thursday by two or
three Philadelphia fire companies. One Of
them presented him with badge Of mem,
bcrship and another with a photograph Of
the members in a group Mr.. Buchanan,
in return, offered the hospitalities Of bis
mansion TO his visitors, which were accepted,
A quarter Of an hour was passed in CONVEX
sation, during which Mr.. Buchanan said he
was now in the scventy-seventh year Of his
agc and he looked more upon the past than
to the future. Upon the rising generation,
ho remarked, depends the stability Of our
government; and if those of the present
age and ages to come could have the wis
dom Of those who lived in the earlier days
Of the republic, they might well thank God
for it.

CABINET CHANGES.

Rumors again abound that important
changes in President Johnson's Cabinet will
soon take place. 1t is said that important
Democratic politicians have called upon the
President since the election, and urged him
to organize Cabinet that would more cor
rectly represent the expressed opinions Of
the people than the one he has around him
now. We do not pretend to say how much
oftruth or how much of ffalschood there may
be in these rumors. But we desire to cx-
press the hope that all the prominent Demo
cratic politicians in the country will let
President johnson alone. He does not be-
long to us, and no distinguished Democrat
who does not desire to forfeit his standing in
the Democratic party can safely enter his
Cabinet.
Nor would il do the President himself
any good to break up his Cabinet and recon-
struct it on Democratic foundation. Such
change, at this late day, might do him
more harm than good. 1t might, perhaps,
weaken him still more. 1t could not posi-
bly, strengthen him. 1T is not because of
anything he has done for them as party,
that the Democracy sustain the president.
1t is not because they believe it to be in his
power to do anything for them as party,
that they have resolved to stand by him to
the bitter end Of his fight with the revolt
tionary cabal in Congress. They will stand
by him just as rcsolutely in that fight if he
retains his present Republican Cabinet, or
puts other Republicans in their places, as if
he filed it with Democrats. Their support
is given to him on principle, and not from
a desire to participate in his administration
Of the government. When they win the
government out Of the hands of their oppo-
nents, then they will want it administered
by their own statesmen. They will sustain
the President with all their might so long as
he defends the Constitution and shows no
signs Of Ainching, even though all who sur
rounded him in Office be Republicans but
no array Of Democratic names in his cabinet
could bind them to him for single day if
he faltered in the performance of his sacred
duty. IF he contemplates change in his
Cabinet, let him make it solely with refer
cnce to the approaching contest between
himself and the Radical destructives. If
his present Cabinet are warmly with him,
we can see no need of his changing them.--
Least of all is there need ola change in or
der to conciliatc the Democracy. When
the President finds himself engaged in a
death struggle with the leading spirits OF
the party which elected hinl-and he will
probably have such struggle on his hands
soon after the meeting of Congress him
raise the Constitution above his head and
cry aloud to the Democracy to come forth
and save it, and as one man they will rally
at his call. But they want no Cabinet Off
GERS till they can claim them under Dem
ocratic President.

SHOULD GEARY DE IMpEACnED. - The
important question now is-Should not Gov
ernor Geary be impcached for the gairins
election fraud that was perpetrated by hi
authority at Fort Delaware? Ills interfcr
once was clearly illegal, and we can think o
no higher "crime or misdemcanor' THAI
tampering with the purity Of the ballot. box
Andrew johnson has done no wrong com
pared to this, even upon the testimony o
his enemies. And yet, the Radical blood
hounds all over the country are bawling fol
his impeachment and removal from Office. =
Therefore, we say, let Geary be impeachcd
The rights and liberties of the people of Tho
State are not safe in the hands Of 50 corrupt
Governor.

tses Horace Greeley is out for the i'm
peachment of President johnson. IIc has
lately changed his mind upon the impeach.
nent question. The late elections in this
State and Ohio may have had something to
do in bringing about this speedy change in
the Gscat Philosophers mind on this very
important subject. IL is well known that
Greeley and many Of his warm supporters
were indignant at the movement made by
certain leading Radicals last winter towards
impeaching johnson but they having at
this hour fallen into the movement it i.
difficult to tell what the result may be. 1t
looks to the eyes Of seme people very much
as if we are to have another war before the
Union is again established. If the aboli-
tionists desire more blood shed they can be
accommodated, would seem to be the
signs Of the times.

DARING BURGLARY.-One Of the most
daring burgarics, known to this community
was committed at an early hour on Satur.
day morning last, at the private Banking
House Of A. X. Walter. Esq. An access
was effected by a forced entrance through a
front window, the shutters having first been
forced open. After gaining an entrance,
the burglars proceeded 70 drilla hole through
the door Of the safe into the lock, after
which they charged it with powder and blew
it open, entirely shattering the inside por-
ton Of the door. They then abstracted
from the safe all the money and yaluables it
contained which, fortunately for Mr.. W.
was not much, he having the day before re.
moved to the First National the greater
portion Of his funds on hand. At the time
of the robbery the safe contained about one
hundred dollars in gold and silver: about
one hundred and fifty dollars in Bank notes,
and three watches. The burglars secured
their booty and escaped unobserved. They
were evidently professionals from some city.
In addition to the above, there was taken
from the safe package of Borough orders
to the amount of about three thousand dol.
lars which have all been paid by Mr.. Walker,
who is Borough Treasurer. We have not
heard Of any other places that have been
visited by this party in the neighborhood.
The noise consequent to the blowing open
Of the safe was heard by a number of per-
sons living in the neighborhood but not
knowing from whence it proceeded, or from
what cause, no alarm was given. We sym.
pathizc with Mr.. Walter in his loss, but
cannot but congratulate him upon the acci-
dental circumstances that caused it to be 50
light as it was ashland Adcocute.

Rta5" STANToN's FRIENDS DRAwINo
DOUBLE PAY.-It seems that General Xii.
patrick, minister to Chill, rendered his
resignation in the army in December, 1865,
but owing to the friendship of Secretary
Stanton, it was unacted upon and so re-
manned until General Grant attention was
lately called to it, when it was promptly ac.
cepted. This is the way Stanton maintain.

the expense Of the taxpayers, and is one
