The JOhnstovvn Tribune.

For the sake of the argument aud to
please the editor Of the Johnstown Tribune,
we will admit that Asa Packer was mem
her Of the Baltimore Convention, in 1850,
that nominated John O. Breckenridge for
President. Was there anything criminal
in Judge Packer, or any other democrat
voting for John G. Breckenridge in 1860 =
He was then the Vice President, and by
common consent, was regarded as one OF the
foremost statesmen Of the country. At that
time his patriotism was unquestioned and
his public reputation untarnished. He new
or became a rebel until he left his seat in the
Senate, which was during the summon OF
1861. after the war had commenced; and
therefore political friendship for him in 1860
was no badge of disloyalty. The electoral
ticket that was voted for by the democratic
party of Pennsylvania in November. 1860,
was known as the Reading ticket" and
was composed of Douglas and Breckin-
ridge democrats. For that ticket Asa Pack
er voted, and so did John w. Geary. for
Geary claimed to be a democrat without
alix or prefix" even in the spring of 1866
long after the war had closed-as the cd
itor of the Tribune can discover by referring
to Gsary's letter to Sam. Mcguire. Of Phila-
delphia, when he (Geary) was seeking the
democratic nomination for Governor. Pack
er and Geary having therefore both voted
for the Heading ticket" in 1860, and
Geary claiming to have been simon pure
democrat as late as 1865, the difference be-
tween them up to that time is not very ap-
parent to the Freeman.
Where does the editor Of the Tribune get
his authority for the broad assertion that
Asa Packer, when he was in Europe, con-
sorted for two whole years with rebeLs.--
This is a most grave and serious charge, and
we ask the editor Of the Tribune to produce
the proof of its truth-if he can. While on
this subject, we will venture to ask the edi-
tor of the Tribune whether he will permit
us to publish a certain conversation which
took place between himself and prominent
democrat Of this county, in a Pennsylvania
Rail Road car, about one week previous to
Judge Packers nomination, and in which
the editor of the Tribune expressed himself
very enphatically as to the result of the con-
test, in the event of Mr.. Packers nomina-
ton II ought to be ventilated and pEoba-
bly, viii be on some future occasion.

with vessels in every stage OF progress: the
shin Yards of the Clyde and Clyde built
vessels being famous the world over. Two
hours ride up the river and we reached
Glasgow. where the family, that for two
weeks soiourned on the good ship, broke up
and separated, each taking the direction that
suits his business or pleasures, and many
sad TO say farewell. A rest at the George
Hotel, an excellent house, good bath, etc.,
and I started to see the sights OF the city.
Glasgow contains a population of about
500 900. is thriving and busy, and carries
on an extensive commerce. Along the
Broomielaw, the landing at the river side,
vessels of all nations are to be seen, and
merchandise of every description being dis
CHARGED from vessels. As before remarked,
C'vde built vessels are world renowned, and
it is perhaps appropriate that the boat yards
of the Clyde should supply the finest ocean
steamships vet afloat, as it was here that
the first steamer built in Europe was launch
ed. and here James Watt, who first sup
piled steam power TO vessels, was born
The principal object of interest IN Glasgow,
and the one first visited by sight seeing
tourists is the old Cathedral, nearly seven
hundred years old. The greater portion
however has been renewed, only few por-
tions of the building, the Choir and Crypt
giving evidence of great age. The date of
their construction is 1175. The windows
in the Cathedral are most splendid speci-
mems of glass staining. and beautifully illus

from the beginning of the world to Christ's
ascension. Glasgow has been styled the
city Of merchant princes, and very many
wealthy merchants are residents there l
believe, but I must con fess that in none OF
the cities of Europe that l have before
visited, did see so much misery and power
tv. 1t may he found in other cities; but 1t
certainly is more apparent in Glasgow than
in any other city. Women barefooted.
bareheaded and almost naked, were to be
found on the most public streets in large
numbers Gin and whiskey palaces are at
every corner and on every hand, and to
these, have no doubt, can be traced very
great deal of this poverty and want that
exhibits itself. Much has been done by the
friends of the temperance cause in Glasgow,
towards stopping or regulating the sale Of
liquors, but beyond prohibiting such estab-
lishments from opening before a late hour
in the morning. when it is supposed those
of the laboring classes who have work have
gone to it, little has been accomplished -
Full liberty seems to be allowed in the even

saint Domingo.

II is we'll known that Mr.. Cole, radical
member of the United States Senate from
California, has gone to Hayti. as a secret
commissioner of the government, to open ne
gotiations for the annexation to this country
of st. Domingo. Why this thing should be
attempted is matter of complete surprise,
and is one of those wonders Of which the pre-
sent administration has been so remarkably
prolific. ST. Domingo comprises the eastern
portion of the island of Hayti, and contains
a population, mainlycomposed ofnegroesand
mulatoes, of 140 900. Its inhabitants are
now and have been for number of years in
a chronic state of revolution. But then the
radical party seems determined to take under
the protecting flag of the Union all the ne
groes on the globe. We suppose that the
annexation of the barbarous kingdom CT Da-
honey will next engage the active attention
of Grant and his Cabinet. White men dis
franchised at the South and the whole Afri-
can race taken under our protection [!
That our readers may know something
about st. Domingo, its government and its
people, we will let Philadelphia radical
paper tell the story:
The Island of st. Domingo-whicb already
has gravitated into the line of those detached
portions of the American Continent which
seek place in our Union-has, since the
| first whispers of its annexation arose, beer
the theme of many articles, written by par
! ties we'll informed as to its wealth, or rather
! its poverty, its natural resources, its pros
! poets, and the characteristics of its popula-
! ton. Now, waste. confusion and idleness
prevail; no settled government exists; nc
steady employment is afforded the people (;
no regular cultivation is given the soil. AL
writer's and visitors acknowledge this sad
| state of things, and yet all concur in stating
that, beyond doubt, could secure and
permanent government be established, the
| Island would become the centre Of a numer-
| Gus population, rich and fiourishing, and
that the almost marvellous soil would be made
to produce abundant and valuable crops oi
| tobacco. cotton, coffee, and other important
articles of export, instead of rank and use
| less vegetation.

FALSE SYMPATHY.

F8LSE SYMPATHY
The Greeks had a good maxim. which was
"Know thyself' (gnOthi SautOn. and which
is as pertinent to our day as it was them
Every man is controlled in his actions by
false attachments and false Sympathies. A
mans own property is better IN his estima-
ton merely because it is his own. A mans
horse, or house. or farm, seems to him to he
much more valuable before he sells it than
afterwards. The moment that anything
which was your neighbours becomes your
own, an additional value is placed upon it,
and stronger attachment is cherished for
it. a book agent was lauding his reading
books to the skies, the other day, because
they were the newest works ont, and new
works were always the best. While he was
thus engaged another agent presented him
self before the Director, with tie newest and
latest system out. The first agent couldn't
see the point.
A lawyer in court had a client who was
charged with selling liquor to a minor. He
appealed to the sympathy of the court and
jury. The client had large family TO
keep. Besides, the distinction between
minor of nineteen and person of twenty-one
was only a fancied distinction. If liquor
would hurt a person nineteen years old it
would injure one twenty-one years old. He
was of similar kind, but this time our at
torney was on the minor side. He depict
ed, in true rhetorical STYLE the horror of
preseL ting poison to the lips Of innocence.

ing different logic awhile ago. The law

A few years ago, before slavery was abol
ished, farmer in Indiana county spent half
his time in distributing anti-slavery dOcu-

he burned his son almost to death in the
cook stove.
One of the latest cases CT the kind is the
reported murder of a married woman by a
boarder in the family, because, as he says,
he always loved her. Such remar kable
cases of false sympathy and false or assumed
attachments occur every day. They are In
deed strange and remarkable, but they are
so numerous that we become accustomed to
them. The very latest case of false sym
pathy that we have noticed occurred yester-
day. A deeply intoxicated man was bidding
a sober friend goodbye, and after shaking
hands he said, Now, Tommy, see that you

Judge Dent.


This gentleman, who is brother-in-law
of Presiden. Grant, has acquired considera-
bic prominence in view Of the proba b;lity Of
his becoming the conservative candidate for
Governor of Mississippi, where he formerly
resided. Grant having violated all his sol
emn pledges to the Southern people and hay
ing surrendered to the extreme radicals, and
thereby placed himselfin opposition to Judge
Dent, that gentleman has seen proper dis
tinctIy to define his position, and to express
in language easily understood his views of
the situation.
We trust that Judge Dent will be nomi-
mated in September. If he is, notwithstand-
ing the opposition of Grant, he will carry
Mississippi as easily and on the same dis
rinct and we'll defined principles as Walker
did Virginia and Senter did Tennessee
Who can doubt this result and why should
it not take place ?
Judge Dent has written letter to gen.
tleman in Jackson, Miss, from which we
take the following sensible and statesman
like extract
81 am gratifed at the election in Virginia
and earnestly hope for Mississippi like
happy result. 1t is upon this basis that we
hope for a speedy restoration of good govern
ment in the South, with her discordant eie-
meuts reconciled and her true men OF all par
ties reunited. On the basis of the election
there is the commencement of new era in
the politics of the country, and it is crafty
ing that so many good and wise men are lay
ing hold of it as the panaCea for ell our polit-
ical ills.
''rThe time has arrived for breaking boldly
away from the prejudices and precededts of
the past. The policy adopted in Virginia is
the dawn of better feeling. 1t will change
the whole surface of Southern politics, and
transmute what has been under the recon-
struction acts an element of discord into a
source of reconciliation. The question OF ne
gro suffrage pending the fifteenth amendment
becomes fixed and irrevOcable, and if wisely
managed the measure may happily become
the means of more nearly adjusting the bal
ance of power between the North and the
South The great agricultural and CONNER
cial interests of Mississippi, in which my
