Southern Claims in Congress.

The following dispatch to the Phil
adelphia Times, last Friday, will serve
as an index to the way the Southern
claim business will be pushed forward
and managed if the next Congress
becomes Democratic Congress
The proceedings in the House of
Representatives to o-day friday will
not soon be forgotten by the Demo
cratic Congressman. The Postmas-
ter General of the late Confederacy
was placed face to face with the Con-
federate archives and acts of the
Confederate Congress, and was some
what confounded by these documents
The circumstances were these: A bill
was pending for 100000 to pay
Southern mail contractors for ser
vice claimed to have been rendered to
the United States before secession.
The Republicans have maintained
that even if the claims were original
" Just, and could be so proved, the
contractors deserved no indemnity
from the United States, because they
stole government property in their
possession, violated their oaths and
conspired to destroy the Republic.
The Democrats maintained that these
claims were just and should be paid,
and they had some Republican help.
The ex-Confederates further asserted,
through Mr.. Reagan, of Texas, their
Postmaster General, that Southern
Postmasters were directed to account
to the United States for all moneys
due the latter The evidence of the
Confederate archives and Confederate
laws showed, on the contrary, that
the Confederate Postmaster General
ordered the former United States
Postmasters In the South to hold the
United States money; that that mon
ey was put into the Confederate Trea-
sury, and that laws were subsequent
ly passed by the Confederate Con
gress paying eight hundred thousand
dollars to these very mail contractors
for this same service, upon the express
conditions, however, that if they (the
contractors should ever recover from
the United States that amount or any
portion of it they should reimburse
the Confederate Government or its
representatives, and eighteen youch-
ers, signed by the very men who are
now asking relief in this bill for three
hundred thousand dollars, are on file
in the Confederate archives. The
eeect was startling. The Democrats

WHEN a man proclaims it abroad
that he was one of the simon-pure
men who agitated the abolition of
slavery, he makes use of his privilege
to talk of himself, but when he en-
deavors to manufacture a public SEN
timent against the securities of the
Nation-that is, the bonded indebt-
edness of the Nation, debts that were
created to extinguish the slavery that
he glories in having condemned
then he proclaims himself a man of
bad intent, or a man of unsound
Judgment. Keep your wits about
you when in intercourse with the
man who tells you that he glories in
the fact that he was an original abo
litionist, and that now he is in favor
of vigorous war against the securi-
ties of the Nation. The National
debt was incurred because of the war
against slavery. If the war against
slavery was right, the debt was an
honest one, and the TRADE against it
is an outrage. If the war against
slavery was wrong, then the debt was
a fraud. But what then becomes of
the men who glory in announcing the
the fact that they were original abo-
itionists
Through mails for cities, but give coun-
try people in the Juniata Valley mails Oh
