DEFEAT OF THE REBELS. - Matantords,
March 26..-Later advices from Zacatecas
state that the defeat of the rebels was com
plete. The Government troops captured
at Matapulgas and embodied in the revo-
lutionary army, rejoined the Juarists when
the fight commenced, and inflicted great
slaughter on the revolutionists. Trevino
arrived in an awful condition at Saltillo,
where he gathered the straggers of his ar
my. Trevino quarrelled with Martinez q
month since, owing to the former appoint
ing a young lawyer Governor of San
Louis Potosi, and ceased all co-cpcra-
tion with him. The revolutionists are ge-
uerally demoralized, and are expected to
evacuate Camargo and the border soon.

THE IIoN. j. B. PACKER presented n
petition to Congress last week, favoring the
interests Of American industry numerausly
signed by lrlshmen in the Coal region. The
petition declares that they have had British
free trade in Ireland, and it is destructive
to the cause Of labor and industry, and that
they do not desire to try it in this country.
There is certainly no class of people who
have had more practical experience in Free
Trade than our Irish population, and we
have frequently wondered at the tenacity
with which they adhere to a party, the poll
cy of which is to oppose protection, and re-
dace them to the same impoverished con-
dition they were so well acquainted with in
misunderstanding at the same time that
most OF their poverty there, was simply the
result of a want of protection TO labor. The
Miners JounCt truly says: : the Irishmen
have been the support of tie Democratic
Free Trade Party in this country, and if
they were to vote only for candidates who
advocate and vote for Protection, - not
those who only make promises to secure
votes, and afterwards betray the people, rs
some have done in the present Congress,
there will be no difficulty in establishing
the Protective Policy in our country.
When the Irish go, they generally 90
with a rush, and the recent movements in
favor of Protection and Temperance, seem
to inaugurate wonderful change for the
better in that direction. If some of our
stupid American Democrats, who advo-
cate and vote for Free Trade, do not soon
become better enlightened, we should not
be surprised to see the Irish rising far above
them

On Monday morning Mr.. John Laudig,
n young man, with n wife and child, and
who has but lately moved into town from
the Valley, died, having starved himself to
death. 1t appears he had been unfortun-
ate in some business engagement and had
given somebody an exemption note, which
he was afraid would be pushed. This
preyed so much upon his mind that he
must have lost his senses, since, for eigh-
teen days he absolutely refused to take any
food and when he became so weak that he
had to go to bed he would not take the
remedies prescribed by the physicians. He

Hon. JOHN b. PACKER.--W publish in
another part of this weeks paper the pro-
ceedings of the Pennsylvania Republican
Association, at Washington, ID. q. This
association is composed Of men of intelli-
gence from all parts of the State, number
ing some several hundred, who are tempo
rarily located at the seat Of government.
As these gentlemen nre brought in contact
with every Congressman and Senator from
this State, we have right TO presume that
they are more able to judge who are our
best and most influential Statesmen, and
in selecting a man for any public position, do
so more intelligently than can be expressed
by any other body of men. In their choice
of candidate for Governor, from amongst
all the best men in the State, they have
unanimously agreed upon the Honorable
John B. Packer, of this place, and instruct
ed their delegates to the State Convention to
cast their votes for him as their candidate.
This is certainly gratifying to Mr. Packers
friends ,as it proves that his worth is not only
appreciated at home, but that the most in
telligent men from all parts of the State,
look upon him as the man for the times.
This expression by politicians who have
friends in their own districts requiring their
sympathies, and governing their preiudices,
is significant, and shows that they see in
Mr.. Packer superior qualifications and
that his name would not only add strength
to the Republican cause, but that the vo-
ters of all political shades would feel assur-
ed that if elected, our State government
would have one of the most careful guar
dians ut its head, that has ever occupied
the Gubernatorial chair. Mr.. Packer has
long been known throughout the Common
wealth rs one of its ablest lawyers, and as
having also filed positions in which he has
proven himself statesman, where he
has not only watched theinterests ofhis con-
stituents, but also those of the nation, to
the satisfaction of every honest mind.
There is no one now named for that office
who to-day stands more free, and who is
more popular, or more eminently qualified
to fill the position Of Governor of the old
keystone State, than the Hon. John b.
Packer.

TEA and Coffee will soon be on the free list,
a fact accomplished almost entirely by Re-
publican persistency, and what is still more
pleasing by Pennsylvania Legislators.
Judge Mercur introduced the resolution,
and carried it in the House, and John
Scott passed il in the Senate. Such is the
free trade of tue Republican party. 1t let's
into our ports the necessaries of living we
do not produce in this country, untaAed,
and by well-directed system of duties, le-
vies tax on all production coming in COM
petition with American labor. The tax of
tea and coffee, will necessitate keeping that
on railroad iron, steel, and other articles
OF pauper labor seeking the control of the
American markets. We give Senator Scott
and Representative Mercur our vote of
thanks.

WE find the following in the Monitor of
Saturday after the New Hampshire cleo
tion:
president Trevelick is stumping New
Hampshire for the Labor Reform caudi-
dates. He spoke at Nashua, Feb. 24th to
an immense audience, and writes us en-
couragingly of the prospects in that State. :"
Many of our citizens will recollect this
man Treyelick, who made speeches in this
county last fall We then stated that Mr..
Trevelick was in the employ Of the Tam
many Ring, and was working with the free
trade party. We have not seen anything
as yet to- convince us that he is not an ul-
ira free trader. The Miners Journal,
commenting on the notice of the Monitor,
says: president Trevellck is certainly no
prophet, nor can lie be very effective
speaker, or else the wC"kingmen do not
trust him, because after stumping the
State the Labor Reform Third Party Tick
ct which he advocated, received, as far as
we have seen reported, less than sic hun.
dred rOteS in the ,chole State. The voters
were sold out last year to the Free Trade
Democracy by these leaders, and they
didn't want to be sold again.
So much for the influence of the Presi-
dent of the Third Party Labor Reformers.
We observe also that President Treyel-
lick was nominated as a candidate for the
Presidency. 1t seems that the leaders of
this Third Party must be rather ignorant
Of the Constitution which they prate so
much about, otherwise they would not
have nominated a man born in Europe as
candidate for President of the United
States, which our Constitution prohibits.
They are eligible to all other offices in the
country except President.

Ice in the Susquehanna--Unp
denIed Blockade.

The Emporium (Pa.) Independent saws
that within the memory Of the Oldest in
habitant never has there been such heavy
body of ice in the DriftwOod and its tribu-
taries as at present. The water in the
streams and ponds is all frozen solid, aud
there is not enough flowing down stream
to run bob-sled-all the mills being idle,
waiting for thaw. The snow in the val
ley of the Driftwood is nearly off-but back
on the mountains and towards the heads
of the streams it is still two feet in depth.
Some of our lumbermcn, taking advantage
of the heavy ice Oh the Driftwood, have,
for week or more past, been hauling lin
Der on its smooth surface, with some dozen
or more teams, from the mouth of North
Creek TO Cross & Bro. IS dam, distance of
about five miles-the intervening dams be-
ing no obstacles to thcm-they driving
right over them.
The Lock Haven Democrat contains the
following The Boom company haze now
engaged in weakening the ice preparatory
TO the move that must take place ere long.
They are cutting the ice with two ice plows
ono six inch and one fifteen inch plow.-
along the line Of the boom sticks and
around the piers, and lines will be cut
across the river. The ice varies in thick
ness from twelve to twenty inches. The
managers of the boom do not fear any SER
ious results from the moving of the ice, and
the precautions they are taking in weaken
ing the ice and breaking the strain on the
boom will very much lessen the danger of
having the boom broken and the many logs
now in it carried away. The theory of
Mr.. Nehemiah Shaw, one of the most eX-
perienced lumberman, in reference to the
thick ice up the river, is, that before it moves,
the ice below will be rotted away and an
open way left for the ice above, and that it
will be very much thinned before it does
move. He does not seem to fear any Sc
rlons results 10 the Lock Haven boom.
