A New STATE.-The Senate of Wiscon-
sin has passed a resolution giving the as
sent of that State to the formation of a new
State from that portion of Wisconsin lying
north of the line commencing at the mouth
OF the Menominee River: thence running up
the centre of said river until it strikes the
dividing line of townships number so and 81
(per Lapham's map of Winconsin), thence
west on said line to the centre of the Mis-
sissippi river, and that portion of the State
OF Michigan bordering on the same, and on
Lake Superior and Michigan and Green
Bay" The population of the territory pro-
posed to be ceded is very sparse but the
country is covered with dense forests of pine
For agricultural purposes it is not regarded
as worth much, but for lumber it is of grea,
value. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan,
called the Lake Superior region, it is pro-
posed to unite with the Wisconsin cession.
The two will make State of about the area
of Indiana

The INDIAN WAR.-It is reported that
Notwithstanding the recent severe punish
ment of the Indians on the Wachita river,
there are now about two hundred lodges of
Cheyennes, ninety lodges of Arapahoes, and
sixty lodges Of Camanches on the war path,
together with few Apaches and few Kaws
and Dog Soldiers under Tall Bull, the chief
of the band, numbering in all about one
thousand warriors. General Sheridan, it
is stated, has given orders for the disposi.
tion of his troops in such way as to drive
the hostile Indians towards one common
centre, till one or all the commands can
reach and punish them, or compel surren-
der and submission to settlement on their
reservations on the terms proposed by the
Gove' nment. Dispatches received in San
Francisco from the Territory of Arizona
state that the Apache Indians were commit
ting depredations in every direction, and
that the troops were unable to pursue them
on account of the condition of the roads
from recent rains.

CLEARFIELD, PA, MARCH 10, 1869
Ineligibility of A. T. Stewart.

Since the confirmation of the Cabinet ap
pointments, it has been discovered that. az.
cording TO the Treasury Act of 1889, Hon.
A. T. Stewart is ineligible to the position of
Secretary of the Treasury-that act specify
ing that nc person concerned or interested in
carrying on business of trade or commerce
on land or in vessel, shall be appointed to
said Office. President Grant, upon being in
formed of this fact at once sent message
to Congress asking for the passage of joint
resolution exempting Mr.. Stewart from the
operations of said act A bill, for the re-
peal of so much of the act as to enable Mr..
S. to hold the position, was introduced into
the Senate, but it is doubtful whether it can
be carried through both Houses many of
the members being averse to meddling with
so important provision of the Treasury
law. 1t is presumed, however, that Mr..
Stewart will resign before action can be had
on the bill.

A WORTHY REcoRD.-The Fortieth Con-
gress has passed into history, with its last
hours signalized by such a decisively en-
phatic proclamation of an Inviolate Public
Faith, as to disarm the criticism which might
point to its shortcomings upon other ques
tions of deep interest to the country. The
broad. clear terms in which it affirmed on
Wednesday last, the plainest of the public
obligations to all creditors who have trusted
the public faith, viii put final end to the
UNANIMOUSLY impudent quackery of green
backs for bonds" When Congress declares
that the public creditor will be paid exactly
as each party understood the contract when
the obligation was incurred, that simply Just
enunciation was in itself splendid triumph
over the most insidious, and therefore the
most dangerous of temptations. Let hon
esty be honored,
Raftsman's journal. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1854-1948, 1869-03-10

ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. -
If we are to judge the President future
course by his first acts upon assuming office,
we are not permitted to doubt what it will
be. That portion of the public who have
been clamoring for some evidence of his real
sentiments are doubtless satisfied by this
time. What with his sharply outlined ad
dress, and his disposition of the depart
mental commanders, there is little room left
for doubt, either as to his convictions or in
tentions. Sherman has been made General :;
Sheridan Lieutenant General, and sent back
to New Orleans; Terry sent to the Depart
ment of the South; Reynolds to Texas :;
Candy brought to Virginia Hancock or
dered to the Department of Dakotah; Gil
lem sent to his regiment, and affairs relating
to reconstruction SO far as possible restored
to the condition they were in when Grant,
according fully with Congress, ceased to have
have his way. At single stroke, the Pres
Ident wipes out as far as lies in his power
the evil resulting from the NAL -administra
ton OF his predecessor, and furnishes us
another illustration of the infexible will
which characterized the man who hammered
away until he pulverized Lees forces. And
in this way We shall have peace.

Exit johnson.

The loyal people ofthe United States, with
but few exceptions, have now heard of the
withdrawal Of Andrew johnson from the
Presidency to private life, where he can be-
gin again, if he sees fit, as alderman of a
village, that upward career which has now
drawn to its unregretted close. That this
last stage in Johnsons official progress has
been no more creditable to him and salts.
factory to the people was owing wholly to
himself, Is apparent to every dispassionate
observer. All that an able, public spirited
man wants in this life is an opportunity
Aud what man ever had a better and more
glorious opportunity than Andrew johnson =?
When the sudden removal of Abra ham Lin
coin called him to the Presidential Chair,
the war had ended, the exultation of the
North was tempered by the uncertainties
caused by the assassination, while the South
by that event was humiliated to the utmost
degree of docility. At that juncture pa
triotic President of but fair talents and
steady self control would have had the way
open to him of speedily reeonstructing the
Union on a just basis, to the entire satisfac-
tion of all we'll disposed citizens.
1t was even true that the accession of Mr..
johnson, after it became inevitable, was
positively hailed by large section of tn,
Republican party, who had feared that Mr.
Lincoln was too tenderly disposed toward the
rebels, whom, it was thought, Mr. johnson
had better understanding of, from his
Southern experience, and with whom he
could deal to better advantage. All those
high hopes were shortly dashed to the
ground.
Beginning with loud talk about making
treason odious." the accidental President
soon revealed his perverse nature by quar-
reling with Congress, reviving the worst pas
sions of the rebels, re-uniting the old Dem
ocratic elements of the North and the South
which had originally brought on the rebel
lion and proved its strongest support, and
by seizing every possible pretext to divide,
discourage aud demoralize the adherents of
the loyal cause. If he had his way, every
Southern State would have been instantly
restored to the Union without giving any
guarantees of loyalty the freedmen, de-
prived of the franchise and pur at the mer-
cy of their old masters, would have been re-
duced to state scarcely distinguishable from
slavery; and it would have puzzled mankind
to have told what possible benefit had re-
suited from the deluge of Union blood, or
wherein the state of traitor was not as
good as that of patriot. Thanks to an
upright and resolute Congress. johnson was
largely neutralized and defeated in his mis-
chievous aims. Still, the evil be actually
wrought was only second to that achieved by
the master spirits of the rebellion, whose
executor he became, and with whom he will
be forever associated.

THE INDIANA MUss.-The Democrats of
the Indiana House of Representatives
"bolted'' the other day in order to prevent
the ratification of the Constitutional Amend
nrent by that State-that is, they resigned
their places and thus deprived the House of
the Constitutional quorum of three ffths
Governor BAKER has ordered an election to
fill the vacancies thus occasioned, to be held
on the 23d of this month. A special session
of the legislature will be held in April, when
the Amendment is to be acted on. Although
the action of the Democratic boilers is mex
cusable, the result of their action is not un-
desirable. The new members will be cleo
ted with special reference to this issue,
and thus the verdict that will be given,
whatever it may be. will come more directly
from the people than would otherwise be
the case; and this, ,on the Democratic theory,
must always be gain.
