THE BORDER CLAIMS.

From the PottSuite Miners Journal
They only ask repayment for their actual losses of
property in possession; and which it was the duty of
their feilowctizens o; Plttsburg and Philadelphia,
and all the balance OF the State, to make safe and
secure to them.-Cham bersburg Repository.
The above sentence is from an article de-
Tending the appropriation asked for to pay
the people of the border counties for losses
sustained by Rebel raids. We do not lack
sympathy for the losses of these people, al
though many of them sympathized with the
Rebel cause; but we are opposed to three or
four millions of dollars being taken from the
treasury of the State. Let them look to the
General Government for reimbursement. If
they had turned out in 1853 en- maSSe, and
resisted the invaders, in place Of letting that
duty devolve upon limited number of men
from this and other sections of the State,
their losses would not have been so great.
We will illustrate the craven or Rebel sympa-
thizipg spirit which prevailed in the south
ern section of the State at the time that Lee
invaded Pennsylvania, in 1868. 1t was in
the latter part of June, three or four days
before the battle of Gettysburg. The regi-
ment with which the writer was connected
was lying opposite Columbia. The Rebel
Early with brigade was advancing down the
valley to the point held by weak force of
men from the northern section of the State.
The object unquestionably was to seize the
bridge at that point, and control the passage
of the Susquehanna. Columbia was
vitality interested. The town was in
danger. The Colonel of the regiment went
to Columbia for assistance to strengthen
the point, and not white man responded
to the appeal. company of colored men
came and did their duty well to the moment
when, on Sunday evening after a brisk skir-
mish in front of the left of the little line, and
the Colonel found that the Rebel brigade was
fanking his command, he ordered it to fall
back. Since the time we witnessed this, and
saw men flying north with their horses and
other stock, leaving their wives and children
to the tender mercy of the Rebels, while men
from the eastern and northern sections of the
State seemed to be the only ones in arms there
to defend them, we have felt but little sym
patby for these people in their losses. We
do not believe in paying money out of the
State Treasury to either towards or Rebe
sympathizers, which the majority were.

JULIUS CESAR AND THE CINCINNATI
From the NJ Y, Tribune.

JULIUS CESAR AND THE CINCINNATI.
From the NJ Y. Tribune.
A Cincinnati paper exhibits considerable
enterprise in announcing the assassination of
Julius Caesar. We heard of this occurrence
some time since, and right sorry we were to
hear it; but Cincinnati is far inland and that
which is news there is tradition elsewhere.
Notwithstanding the Importance of the publi-
cation it was not issued in an extra, but in
the regular edition of the paper. The editor
comments upon the occurrence with ability
and gloom. He says that Caesar was a man
of talent, and ought to have mounted the
throne. 1t was in apprehension of this
event that he was himself mounted by Brutus
and his hackers, with the fatal consequence
which the editor so feelingy deplores.
He says, likewise, that Cleopatra's genoa
logical tables are stained with the scarlet
of consanguinity. Why does he rake up this
old scandal? De DlOrtuts nil ntsi 6Onuns.
She couldn't help her parentage She sinned
some, repented good deal, and the asp was
punishment enough to make due atonement.
We are really shocked at the eager malignity
with which our Cincinnati cotemporary circu-
lates these injurious reports about lady who
can no longer take her own part. If Mark
Antony were alive the editor would doubtless
receive call from that robust Roman gentle
man, and the fragments of the journalist
would be subsequently carried home in a
pillow case. But we believe that Mark is dead.
The editor says he is. she olung to life till
the last moment, and then committed suicide.

Cladney and ,he Tobacco Tax.
NEW HOPE, March 10.

new HOPE, March ID.
Eiitor Herald:
I think it is generally understood that
tho Honorable "Firasenth Amendment"
and Mr.. T. Cummins have settled the
Tobacco question in full at least it is
generally believed in our section of the
country that they have done so, and
that there will be no further adjustment.
Well, what q world we live in live in
this world and learn out Of it.
Everybody who knows anything about
the tobacco speculation, would like to
know how Mr. Cummina and Mr.. Glad
ney settled the charges against the latter
Of selling unstamped tobacco. Every
body l talk to is anxious to learn how
the matter was adjusted. Mr.. Cummins
told q gentleman in our town that he had
found several caddies of tobasco that had
been sold By Mr.. Gladney without being
stamped, and that he could not escape
punishment. if Mr. Cummns has set
tied the matter with him, it is certainly
great error in not making known the man.
ner Of that settlement, as the public are
very anxious in regard TO it; and if he
does not do 40, | think Mr.. Stewart had
better look into the matter, aad see if the
Fifteenth Amendment" and the Deputy
Collestor have complied with the require
ments of the law. 1t should be straight.
ened up in some way, for the whole mat
ter will he thoroughly investigated. MIR.
Cummins, | have understood, has in
spected several caddies Of the "Fiiteeuth
| Amendment's' tobacco, which were not
sawed in two, and upon which there were
no Government stamps.
1t seems TO me strictly "loyal" man
would not be guilty Of go base an act as
to defraud the Government. like Mr..
Gladney has done, bat would do all in
his power to uphold the laws Of the
country. But woe unto mau, he has
fallen! Yes, our so-called Representa-
tive has fallen 30 low, that he can 60
about the country and peddle tobacco in
sack, a caddy here and oaddy there,
at fifty cents . pound, without paying
tribute to his Government for the privi-
Iege-and a "loyal'' law maker at that,
| think can tell how it is. Thirty two
cents pound the Government tax ION
tobacco--is a pretty big profit for our
Representative to make on his sales
pcddied in a sack. IF he can prove to ME
there is no hereafter l would like to Le
his partner. .
Now let US como right down to the
scratch, Mr.. "tifteenth Amendment,
and say if you think this way Of doing
business is strictly "loyal." If you do
would like to ses you show your hand
aud prove it to the citizens Of Lincoln
county through the Herald. Ifnot the
masses will think you guilty Of tn,
charge, aud the facts will be investigated
before the Jurics OF our State.
