IT IS NOT TRUE that r. II. Singer intends
leaving town, some ,could have it. But
on the contrary, he intends to carry on the
Blacksmithing in all its branches stronger
than ever. To do SO, it is absolutely neces-
sary to have tools, hands, and iron, all which
cost money. Therefore, persons Indebted to
Mr.. Singer for work done in '65, '66, and the
early part of '67 will please call round and
settle the same. l feel satisfied that my Gus

LOCAL CORRESPONDENCE.

LETTER FROM HEMLocK-Two GAMES or BASE
BALL, AID HOW THEY NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
AFTEEwARD, sUT NO LIQUOR.
HEMLooK, Nov. II, 1867.
To the Editor of The AJeghaniGn:
The Highland base ball club of this
place played a social game with the Mi
ners' Club of Gallitzin, at the latter place,
on Friday, LIST inst. Only four innings
were played, resulting as follows High
landers SS, Miners 25. The trip was
very pleasant one 70 the Highlanders, one
and all coming away with the belief that
better or more whole-souled set of fell
lows than the Gallitzin boys do not live
above ground.
The return game between the two clubs
was played here last Saturday. After
hard contest, it resulted in favor of the
Highlanders. The visiting club were
quartered at the "Grant House," where
every possible attention was paid to their
comfort by the excellent host and kind
hostess. After the game, much lemonade
was drunk, but no intoxicating liquor, all
hands being Good Templars. o.
| LOST The Johnstown Democrat tells
of man who, while lately attempting to
cross over from Bedford to Cambria coun-
ty, got lost in the mountains. He wan
dered about for several days, but was
utterly unable to find his way out of the
dense and bewiIdering Businesses. At
last, weary, sick, and despairing, he laid
himself down to die, when, Casting his
eyes upward, he beheld on the trunk of a
noble oak tree an index pointing to the
characters-"O. Il. c. S." Hope revived
in his heart, and gathering new strength
he arose and pursued the direction indi-
Gated by the index finger. To mako a
Ions story short, suffice it to say that after
travelling for hours, guided at each step
: by the same device-the index and the
cabalistio characteristic at last found
himself in Main street, Johnstown, at the
door Of the Oak Hall Clothing Store, kept
by E. Leopold & Bro. So rejoiced was
he at his escape from death that he enter
ed the store and purchased one of the best
and cheapest suits of ready-made clothing
, he had ever seen.
JUST ARRIvED.-A. A. Barker has
: just returned from the Eastern cities
\ bringing with him an unrivalled stock o.
fall and winter goods. His mammoth
> store is literally crammed from cellar t.
garret with his purchases. That portion
of The public who want to pick up bar
gains should give him call.
MAKE a NoTE.-If you should happel
to be going down street on the left hanc
u side, or coming up on the right hand side
> drop in at Thompson's store and look a
/ his stock of ready made clothing, just re
u ceived. He can fit you out in q new ri
from top to toe for mere song.
CoME.-The melancholy days hav
come, the saddest of the year. Are 20
q prepared to meet them? Have you pul
u chased your winters supply of clothing
n groceries, &c! If net, go to V. S. Bal
CO ker's. He will fill you out bill of an

WIN President johnson Resign,

From the Leader.
We believe that as the President has re-
viewed the question of his resignation, it may
be stated in this sbape:-'1 am legislatively
rendered what a comic paper has pictured
me-a mere fgure-head to the ship of state.
Constitutionally, am its Captain. Practically,
my crew has mutinied. One of my very
messmates defes me at my own cabin table,
and persistently refuses to accept my reckon
ing. The responsibility of safety or shipwreck
is, nevertheless, nominally with me. Yet, in
all truth, have no control whatsoever. If |
should wholly surrender the ship of state
to the mutineers, majority of the popular
crew might be induced to at least save her
from wreck"
Nor is this an overdrawn picture The
President is called Commander-in- Chief of the
Army. Yet by radical law his orders are only
made valid whenever the War Secretary ooun-
tersigns them. Mr. Stanton refuses to do
that. Not only does this subordinate defy the
Commander-in-C Chief, but the Generals of
Divisions and Brigades initiate his demOralz-
ing example. The obvious corollary OF this
situation is that the finances of the country
are at the mercy of the Treasury Secretary if
he chooses to be contumacious; and there is no
Federal officer who is not practically indepen-
dent of the Governmental head.
But II Mr.. Wade became acting President,
unanimity and uniformity in Governmental
details would ensue. The radical programme
could be speedily carried out. If it resulted in
disaster the public could the sooner place the
responsibility where it belonged and the
sooner rescue the nation from doubt and un-
certainty. How often does the cautery or the
knife cause an ulcer to heal that else would
have ripened into gangrene
The Presidents intimate friends have urged
that his place is nigh to the helm so long as
the ship of state floats; that, if disaster oame
history and posterity would hold him account
able; that, practically, the radical programme
was inevitably to be performed as events now
marshalled themselves, and while it was OBJ
vious that the President was powerless.
Before Mr.. Stevens announced that impeach-
ment was impTactcable, President Johnson
could not resign without exposing himself TO
the charge of cowardice. Since that bugbear
has perished, no obstacle to selfrespect exists
in the case. He could resign, and in a.fare-
well address to the American people put him
self on record in document that before many
months might be accepted as memorably Just.
If he remains, the only good he can possibly
accomplish is TO delay the radical programme
long enough to save the South from precipitate
revolution and the North from sudden imam
cial panic. .rs1 .nH To tlsif

1t is for 'his virtues" that it is sought to
drive Mr.. Stanton out of the Cabinet, says
high radical authority; and it is for his virtues,
of course, that the radicals desire he should
hold on. 1t would be safe TO go more into de-
tail and say that it is for one particular virtue
that he is supposed to possess that the radicals
desire that he should retain his place-the
virtue, namely, of having that kind of left
