U . ff J 1 alao Lruo idu wvwa aauia vuww-a were he leaders of the opposition, and ihat tbe vo trar aa J greeay tone of tneir attentncei lound an echo In the Demo cratic press. "' . On the tana the action of the Demo crat has been halting and divided. Mr. Beck stood almost alone in the Sea- ate for the principle of a revenue tariff. and tbe e Sorts ot Messrs. t artiste, Mor rison an I Tucker, in the House,, were feebly su ported from .heir own side. In neither branch of Congress did the Democrats have any concerted policy. amtther were quite una.DK. even wnen opposing Republican, propositions, to bring forward any practicable substi tute, or even to indioato any intell gible principle on wbicn a substitute conia be framed. They- had leaders, and in the House especially these leaders were men of fxKve and conviction an 1 char acter, but there was no leadership, be cause there was no disciplined or rea sonably harmon ons folio win .The fact that the Speakership of the next Hons was at s ake ought to hate in duce J the Demo Tats to arrantre them selves in some e .ective manner, but it split them up, domoraliied and par alyzed, them. A party which goes to pie.-ea the m ment it ii required to a i a a , a . cnoose a leaaer, is in a dsai way. it approaches the moment of action un prepared to act. Already the S eaker sbip is the sub et of bitter contention, ana each a lion is denouncing the oth er much more heartily than it is oppos ing the o mon enemy. On the mor- rnar of ail ;riimmnt tlia voioa of Air. A bram S.

There is no room for the conclusion that the diilicu t e which beset L the Democratic party wiL lessen wi h the I assage of timo. They will rather in cretse. I ecisions much more impor tant than these presented at the late session of Congreat will be constantly pressing upon them, and there is no in ui at on that thay can be met with any greater degree oi-resoltition. 'I he work o the next session ( Co 'gross, so ar as concerns the Dem crats. will be to make a positive re.-ord on which to go be ore the people n the great .v at onal election of next year, r rotu what ma ter al will thev make f In what di rection will they turn their efforts? It i- impossible to say. i he Republ cans have not done all that they ought to have done, but they have done enough to leave very little lor the Dem crais to do. nd that li tie the latter will find tt very di ou t to do. They could not. if they were willing to do so, e tend mv terially the re o m pr ncip'e ia the pub lic service. On the contrary, they are much more likely to violate That princi ple in the treatment of the o.Lces le tto the T disposal. Thev could n't if they w shed lake np the. tariff again and make a more thorough revision n the d rect on of reform, 'or they are not suf ficiently united with reference to it They might bring about considerable re ductions in expend tores, but they are not likelv to do so. They are muon more I kely to push internal improve ments' to an extravagant extent. ; Yet a purely nega ive opposition and persistency in 'barren ritici-m will avail them verv little. nd ff. as is probable, judging by the past, the energies of the more conservative' and enlightened leaders of the party are exhausted in preventing their followers from commit ting some extraord nary folly, " ha bvm of the party on the confidence of the people will not be er atly strength ened Mean wh le tbe attitude o the great body of independent citizen will be one o' critical aomtiny not unm'xed with saip!C:on, and it will be extremely in'erestinf to see how th a will be sup ported by the party which ' finds itself in partial possession of . the Nat.onal Government, iV.

What in the world there is to be sur ris -d about in this matter we can not a The E'eveoth roendroent to the Constitution ex pressly pro. ides against such i-uita, and u ihe-e ca-es thoonlv question involved was whether the transfer o. claims by c t zens to the States of New Yorx and New Hamph re gave those States the rght to s e Louisiana The Court held that the transfer did not avoid the 1 on s itul onal prohibition, that the claims were still toe claims of the individuals and they could not reach ind rectly what the were proh bited irom directly.

The . e ptibl can prty ba been as zealous as an other party to maintain the clear Constitutional rights of the Sta e at the same time maintaining that the sove reignty of the r ederal Government was supreme in its sphere, and that 't ate sovereignty not State rights - could not bo set np aga nst ha 'era sovere gn t to the destruction of the latter. The Oonstitutional rights of Masxhasetti ana 01 cnio are as aear to uem as toe Conatitutiobal rights of Louisiana and South Carolina, and the rights of both will be sacredly maintained by the Re publican -party. 1 ut this does not mean that State sovereignty is supreme, and that within the .egiumate sphere of its act on the : ederal sovereignty mnt ask tha permi s'on of a State to exercise tt authority within the bolder of the State, or that the State may set np its sover eignty' and forbid the exercise .'ol t ederal. anth -rit.' under tbe i ederal Censtit it on.

In- Uutiiapoiu Journal. The, Sout la Prealdentlal Electioas. Let as see about this assumed inv;n- cibllitv of the Democracy in the S juth em States, by which is meant all of tha ex.-sl.ive Stales. In I860 the slave States were, of coarse, and very natural. y, so' id against a parcy wauou uatu Mieir luou.uwuu aw be wrong, and declared against allow ing it to exist anywhere except in the then existing slave States. And so while Lincoln received' every xaortnern Eleotoral vote exeent three of New Jersey's seven, which went to 1 ouglaa. be naa not one in tbe sou in. aat tne Southern States gave but 72 of their lC Electoral votes to Breckenridge, the Secession Candida' the other 4tt going for. the Union candidates S'J to BeO and 9 to L'ouglas. Virgin'a. Kentucky, Teones'ee and Missouri cast these 44 Union voles in protest agairst the Sooth Carolina rebellion. Where, then, was the solidity of Democratic power at thr South? ' In 18 Js eleven Southern States were in rebellion. Lincoln received everv Northern Electoral vote except the seven of New Jersey. Of the five slave States not in rebellion, including the new State of West V irguva, Lincoln received the 2$ Electoral votes of Maryland, Mis souri and. West V'inrlnia, while Mo de !lan received the 14 votes of Dela ware and Kentucky. In 1868, with Virginia, Mississippi and Texas not voting. Grant carried all the Nor h except New York, New Jer sey and Oregon, and all tbe eontb ex ce t Delaware. Maryland. Kentucky and Louisiana The South gave h'.m 0? electoral votes, and only 28 to his Dem ocratic com petitor. Horatio bevmonr. . In 183 i. rant carried every Electoral vote in the North, and in the South he re eived 68 to Greeley's 66. No solid South then. . Personal politics in 187S led some em inent and ambitious Republican do itl- cians to attempt the formation of a great political power of whivh they Bbouia do tne center. i.ne aisastro a result of that expo iment set its lea 'era to wo k endeavoring to vindicate the r action by showing the depravity of the Republican partv. wh le with n the par ty war found many aax ons to dispute the existing leadership, and willing to swell i he chorus or' the malcontents in order to secure their suppoit. The to tal innocent e oi the Democratic party in the South of any of the outrages which it had notori usly em-oura.ed and permitted was one oi tbe chief ar ticles of lakh of the new taction thus formed. Tho vlnd cation of the DemoTay was accompanied bv a series of 'ndictments against the Kepubl'can j arty for the acts o: indivi ua's. In wh ch it had neither part nor- oc. As the result the people n 187 elected a iemocratie Hou of Representatives. ' This reac tion earourasea tne enemv and corre spondlngly dishtartened the epublio- ans. lbese ca ises, and these alone. led to the rerormat on of the old Bour bon solidity at the South. - For this rea son only are tncymentionea. 1 be men who were concerned in them are .or the most part forgotten. i In I s7 . the new solid South made :ts appearance, and tarried all before it except the !

I A bevy of girls, grand-daughters of the aged lady of the mansion . were as sembled for their usual summer visit at the old Beatty homestead. Acting out child nature everywher , - they beset Grandmother Beatty one evening for a story, and when she assented, and gave them the r choice am -ng several inci dents of her early days, they naturally preferred the following, as it relates to a wedding and a baby; to so jects of particular :nterest to girls of their age- twelve to auneen. . .. she always began this oft-told tale in the same words of half apolojrv: - ; "I heard- ft bo many times when I was a ch Id. and have told It so often since I became, old. that it does seem as if I remember it though that can not be. for 1 was. ohlv fifteen months old when it happened. But it ia iust as true, girls, aa if I could recollect it my self, for 1 beard my lather and crand- Jnother and others . tell it over, and over ever so many times. And so t on will forgive me if 1 tell it . tut as tbougn 1 remember au about it, for in deed! can not tell it in anv other way. ' "I was born In mr father's Httl log cabin just a fortnight a ter it was bu It, the fitteenth ot April, 1781. and my cradle was a roll of bark with two crooked sticks for rockers. That was in Westmorel nd County, Penn. , at a pla called .v.i ler's Stat'on, two mi es from Hanna's Town. Hoth these places were destroyed by the Indians and nev er rebuilt t ev were not far from the nresont village of ireenburg. "Those were years of war all over America, but tbe rontiera baa tbe natti est oi it, for Br t sh aeen a kept the In dians stirred up and supplied them with guns and ammunition, but the colonies had all the fighting they could do alon? the seaboard, and So bad no help to snare to the borders. Countless mur ders of women and children were com mitted by the savages, and hosts of people carried into captivity. Those were awful times on tbe frontiers.' Well, the incl lent you have asked me to tell occurred on the 18th of July, 18 .', when I was n baby just runnng alone nicety. There had t een many settlers arther into the wilderness than Miller's Station and Hanna's Town, but gradually thev had been driven back till our places were the last n the borders. Among ti e sett ers thus returning were two Si otch families who stopped and b.iilt cabins near ou s, the Co .rlas and Di nlapsv Others also settled down at Millers until, with the great double mansion of Mr. Miller, the i.ne house of ohn Brownlee, and several smaller ones, we had quite a village. Aiary Courla must ha e been a beautiful Scotch girt. for her praises were in everybody's month, and as I first recall her, though thirty years old,' she was a lovely woman. And - times L'unlap was worthy of her. few men I ever saw equaling him in looks and bearing. ' lt seems that love, 1 ke wild violets, blossoms in the woods as well as in the fields; and perhaps it is sweet er the e than in tne towns where it makes so much gaudier appearance, like, over-cultivated pans'es. At any rate, James and Mary courted, lov a, married and lived a great' many years oi wedded love, all in the borders . "Thev were general favorites in our lit tle settlement and hen it was whispered about that their wedding day was set, Mr: Millor went to' James and I vited hinato have the wedding at the 'man sion and a k in a houseful. 1 James assented, and when the day came, July 12. it was a eoodlv company that gathered to see the lovers united. Numbers came from Hanna's Town. chief among them being Mrs. - Hanna herself and her two beautiful daughters, the aristocracy of Westmoreland. . : 'ln old t rues the wedding day was tho bride's day, and the next was the groom's, and was called the infair.' and this was a more festive occasion than the marriage itself. ! So yon see my story happened not at a wedding, really, but at the infair. . Everything went merry enough until, the middle of the afternoon- There had been danc ng, and playing, and great glee after d nner. when sud denly, like a clap of thunder out of a clear sky. a terrible war-whoop burst on their 'ears, and a host of painted savages rushed into the mansion. It aeon s they had attacked Hanna's Town about noon rrost or the people escaping into the fort; and then, before anybody cou'd tret awav to give us warning at Miller's, they had coma unawares upon our place. " "Most of our people were captured; a few men who were mowing grass in the meadows, and some who were at home in their cabins, tied into the woods and escaped. .. A l the weeding ' company were taken- tbe bride and groom, ftlrs. Hanna and her tiaugbters, John Brown lee . and all his atnily but one little child, which was re-cued by a young man and hid In a rye-field, in all. forty fi e souls. ' Most of them were released and came home within a couple of year -, among them ths young married couple: but some were tomahawked on the march. . Brownlee Was one -of these, t e h id been a leader against the In d ans in several eped t ons, and some of the red men recognized him' and re- h,embered with anger his bravery. On the retreat Brownlee was loaded : by them like ' a pack horse with a great burden of things they had stolen in our cabins; and he bad taken in addition his younge -t child, about my age, and so was walking besiae bis wue. ai one spot he stooped sl;ghtly to arrange his load, when an Indian sunk a tomahawk In his brain. -As he fell to the ground the same dripping blade cle't open the skull o( tbe yeliow-tressea nn e cnua. And as my mother (your great-grandmother), al o in the line of captives, screamed at w tnessing such a butchery, the - monster who did It turned and hewed her down. 1 Mrs. Brownlee saw the bloody deed and the death-th:oea of ber busbana ana oabe in s lent norror, and from that moment was never sane again. She drifted along with the rest of the captives, especially cared for by Mrs. Hanna, at length reached Canada, and by British officers who pit ed her condition was sent back to Westmore land: a dozen rears later she was vet silent, with hands always clasped and eyes fl ed on the ground. ' ) "But my own share in that fearful event remains to be told. My mother was at the mansion, and. as I said before, was taken prisoner and slain. Mv father had also been there most of the afternoon, bnt as my grand mother remained in our cabin in charge o. me. a baby, he had stepped home lor a few minutes to look a ter our weuare. It was at this moment that the war whoop sounded and the attack began. A glance told my father that nothing he could do would avail to save my mother or rescue any but grandmother and me. if even this cou d be dona But as our cabin" was at the farther side of the hamlet, at the very foot of George's Hill, he dec ded to try and escape into the thick woods a little distance np the slope. .Catching me in his arms and taking his mother by tbe hand he hur ried us toward the forest. Hardly had we started when the roving eyes of sev eral savages spied us and pursuit was instantly made. Grandmother was old and leeble, and the fright and haste al most overcame her so that she could hardly walk. ' My father, see'ng th 9 and . noting bow fast the. Indians were gaining - on na, . balanced in his mind which to . give np and which to try and save, his mother or h s child.' And thlsq testion was settled when he reached the edge o: the woods; for at that voint he dropped me upon the 'ground, and,- devotng all . ha strength to his mother, escaped the sav ages and re a. hed George's Farm, a lew miles distant. What would become of me he co Id not imagine, though he said that until darkness shut down, and he came back to search lor wife and - aby. he had constantly before his eyes a vision of my scalp of glossy ringlet in a red mans bloody hands. When n;ght came he stole to the clearing to examine the 'state of a a:ra ' As he crept out from among the trees and 1 stened and gazed all was still, but not all dark. Below him at se eral points were glow.ng beds of coals, and the smokv air told h'rm that the hamlet was not only bereft of its people bnt burned to-the earth. Warily crawling down the hill he came first to the smoldering remains oi tne - oura caDin, next were the embers of the Dunlaps' little house, and next to this stood our own. But, as he approached, what was his amaze ment to discern, instead of a bed of ashes, tbe outlines of the cabin dimly seen In the darkness. A fire had been bunt against its walls, but owing to the Green state of the logs it did not burn. As he stood before the open door thinking how much of love and happi ness had been suddenly snatched from beneath its roof, a sweet, sad longing possessed him to enter. He did so. and by some instinct of his mind, or in ro enoe of a higher powe , groped his way to the bed. where at that hour, but for the awful d saster, his wi e and babe would have been peace ully sleeping. Patting out his hands with almost a wail for his lost ones, what was his astonish ment to feel a human lorm on ihe cot With a shuddt-r of mvsterv. hope and fear, he ell along it was a li ing form. ! for it movedit was a child's iorm and lilting it to his breast, his heart told him Tt was L his baby girl, alive. And as he clasped me in his arms, the vents of the past six hours seemed like a horrd nightmare. But too sadly did he learn the reality of th.ngs before another day passed. K nowing the craftiness of the Indians, he dared not remain longer in the cabin lest some, I arty o" them, prowling to catch such returning settlers as he, - might come up n him: so - he carried me to the woods and waite for morning. - How such a mere infant as I escaped and found my way back to the cabin was never known. i As the dawn came, my father peered ! into the valley for signs of friend or ' foe, but none appeared!' the little set tlement was a deserted ruin. , "At broad daylight . we crept from onf h'.d ng-place and caut'ously wan . dered among the rema ns of the houses. , At one point we found where tho sav ages had taken their departure, an from some unaccountable inclination j my father fol owed the trail.
