We have had occasion more than
once TO speak Of the stupid blunders
committed by the Radical leaders.
Even in those cases where they are
specially solicitous 10 make things fast
and binding, they seem TO, Fortunate
ly for the country, wholly deficient in
the skill and capacity 70 effect their
purpose. OF this the reconstruction
Legislation Of Congress formed a stri-
king exemplication. Another strong
instance of Radical stupidity appears
in the muddle they have got into by
the proceedings on the 2lst.
The tenure Of Office law provides
that all appointments made during
the recess Of Congress shall terminate
or be vacated unless confirmed by the
Senate at the succeeding session.
Now the Radicals hold that there was
49, - "a .,snr,,
current resolution was passed thvrvat
10 take another recess True, there
was really no quorum of the House,
but this speaker Colfax and his friends
managed 10 ignore. IL there was a
session Of Congress on the 2lst, it is
certain that there were no appoint
ments confirmed by the Senate at
that session and il results therefore,
that all the appointments made since
the session proceeding have, by virtue
of the tenure OF Office bill, Terminated
and the bonds filed for the proper
discharge Of duty, and for the securi.
~ of the interests and property of the
Government ceased to be binding. If,
on the Other hand, there was no ses-
sion, Congress stands adjourned over
70 the first Monday in December
Was ever party at once so malevolent
and stupid!

exchange says Emma, who lost her
three brothers in the war, and who
cried on the "side walk" because they
wero not in the Radical procession on
Friday, the 25th ultimo, should read
Grants dispatch TO Gen. Butler rein-
sing to exchange prisoners, by which
some twenty thousand Federal soldiers
were starved at Andersonville prison
pens. She might also find consolation
in the fact that Joe. Brown, who cs.
tablished those pens, is now a leading
Radical Of Georgia, and received into
political communion and fellowship
with the very men in whose presence
she gave such touching exhibition
ofher tears.
Clearfield Republican. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1851-1937, 1868-10-15

TAXATION EBT.-The publicmind
is Justly and rightfully agitated on the
important subject of taxation. This
is the only burden industry and pru-
dence cannot remove. 1fa man buys
a house or lot, on credit, aud has on
it a mortgage or a ground rent, he
can, by economy, pay off or reduce
that debt, and ind himself free; but
be cannot get rid of the load the pub
lie puts on him. The income Of the
National Treasury falls short of the
expenses. This state Of affairs viii
continue so long as the Radicals are
in power They viii not reduce ex-
ponses They cannot. The "ring"
lives on public plunder, and will not
be dispossessed without a most des-
perate struggle. In such a state Of
facts it is idle for the tax payers TO
hopo or reduction of their burdens.
They must make change, and now
is the time to do it.
