HON. GilO. SHAR.SWCOD,
OF 1'IIII.ADKU'UlA.
l.'EOBO SUFFE ACE IK THE NORTH.
It is now ijuito cv"nl'iit iliatfjo llali.
cals arc prepared to force sciro sufimgc
upon the people i f the Ninth by Con
gressional notion.' At the Inst niocUnj;
of the National Ilouso of Urprescutrl.
tives tlie JuJicary Committee wp.s in.
dructcd tn inquire whether, under tin
Oonstitutwn, Congress has power to
prescribe the qualifications of voters :r.
tho several States, nu-l, if deemg.1 ex
pedient, to report a bill prescribing the
panic. This is a movement in the same
direction as that male- by Senator Wil
ten, and tho adoption of tho resolution
shews that the majority are wiliinp; to
take this advanced ground, and hold it,
if passible, by an appeal to the people.
TliC iMvuetu n yiveu to the eeiuinit.
tec with reUreuce to tho cohiUitutiounl
power of Congress to interfere vrith'tlhe
qualifications of voters in the several
States is a mere cheat. No inan who
has read the Constitution, or is at all ac
quainted with the theory of our govern
ment, will pretend that Congress has a
right to My who shall and vho shall
not be citizens of a State and exercise
the elective franchise therein. That is
aright belonging to the people of the
several Stai.es. Why should the , citi
zens of Maine force upon those of Penu.
Bylvania or Ohio a class of vutcrd they
do not desire to have a voice in public
tiffairs ? The Constitution gives them
no such vijiht, nor was it ever claimed,
until tlielladicais came into power and
openly set at defiance the plain provis
ions of that instrument. Negro suffrage
was forced upon the South by Congres
sional action in order to build up a
Radical party iu that section of the
Union, and negro suffrage will be inau
gurated ia the North by the same
means, as a scheme for strengthening
thp !mo i- 'Tiiization iu jhe North,
lwllot into the hinds of any class they
please within the territory of a sover
eign and indepetdatit Siatc, then they
havo the right to deprive of the
elective fninehi.-o any o.her class that
way fall under the ban of factional or
partisan disple:i-jve. 11 Congress can
constitutionally use- the one power they
can exercise the oilier slso. If tho uc
f;roci of Pennsylvania may be enfran
chised by Congressional action, the
whites may bo disenfranchised in the
fame manner. This is a fair iuterper
tation of tho position assumed by the
1'adieuls when they assert tind main
tain the power of Congress under the
Constitution to enter a Ktato nnd raise
the negroes to the full stature of
American citizenship, nnd the people
must look at it iu this light.
What H'ould be the practical effect if
Congress should exercise the power to
declare who should and who should not
lo citizens of a State? Certainly the
dominant party, as a means of porpetuat
1 its authority, of holding the purse
; nd directing the a void, would ostracise
all who differed with them iu politic:'.'
opinions and sVu'.imcut?. If negroes
would suj poit their policy aud candi
dates, they would be allowed to Bp
(touch the bulloUbox, it white men
i'ared to face tlie governing faction, and
vote necnr-V.nsr to their cum '.cliuji, the
i so of parti.-an bigotry would fall upon
'heir light of vo'.iug. Iu this manner
tho great distinctive feature of our sys
tern of government would 1)3 turned
hem its Irgititiiatc cl ai.r.il and made a
potent instrumcntj.iii destroying iho lie.
public, and setting up iu its stead a des.
potism fur more ktulorable than that of
Jiuwia or Turkey. ...
Negro suffrage, as sought to bo en
forced iu tho Nor.h by Congressional
action, is a plain it-vauui of tho great
principles on which the Aioericiu elec
tive sy.'teiu rests', and ul.-o a direct at
tack upon tho rights df white inru. A
party that, in djlianco of the plain and
fvident- meaning of the Constitution,
will force terrain piT.-.ou.4 into citi.i u
sh'o u..a fcjlatp by Co:ii'Ca..iouul action,
will t'i ." iiiehise oilicns by tho same
means, when such a com so is necessary
in order to perpetuate their power. It
is tho intention of tho Ttadicgls to eon
fe.' the b illut, uuju thu ucgro in the
Northern States, and uae him lis a o
lilical auxiliary. When that point is
reached, the next step will be to dis.
franchise white men who differ with
them as to political measures. This is
what will follow negro suffrage by Con
gresional tuition, and whito men must
prepare for the issue. " Erinr.ipiit .'oh
ulu," oppose the very beginning of evil,
is always sound po'iey. Let tho free
men of Pennsylvania oppose in a united
phalanx this attempt to f.ireo negro suf
Irago upon the North as a moaeuro of
selt-presorvation. If they boldly con
front the question now presented, they
will not be compelled to face that which
iuvolvcs tho disfranchisement of white
men in tho future l'hihuMjdtia Age.

Shall we elect Judj'c Shar.swood and

test. We have heard very intclfigcut
men among them concede that wo
would carry tho ."tate of Pennsylvania
this fall. Khali wo do so ? What say
you reader ? Arc you ready to do your
full share of tho great work ?
We can win, but wo can . not win
without proper effort. There must be
a perfect o:gmization of tho bemocrotic
party iu every election district iu tlie
State uo half way work, but a com.
plete and systematic organization, such
as will bring every vote to tho poll.
Thousauds of honest Republicans are
ready to turn in with us. They must
bo properly approached, and every in
flueucc must be brought to bear upon
them. Democratic newspapers must be
largely circulated ; your local paper
first, and others afterwards. There
must be public meetings and addresses
by the best speakers who cau bo pro
cured, and there will bo when the time
comes ; but the great bulk of the work
must bo done through other and more
quiet agencies. Organization is what
is needed close, perfect, aud effective
organization in every election district.
With that wo shall wipe out tho Ttadi.
cal majority in Pennsylvania and make
itcertain that tho clectorial vote of the
Stato will bo cast on tho right side in
the coming Presidential contest. Wc
can give Judge Sharswood at least
twenty thousand majority. Shall wo
do it '! What say you reader ? Lan

The Siirrall Case.
Mr. J. II. Bradley, Jr., opened the
case for the defense, and said the time
had at last arrived in this case when the
- .-). --y -AM- " n ucu " uul
only his guiltlcssucss. may bo shown,
but the pure fame of his departed moth
er may be vindicated. Tho difficulty
of at first summoning a juiy was advert,
cd to, and after complimentary remarks
to the jury, Mr. Kradlty said tho attor
neys for the defense camotoiho trial
of this case in full confidence of the
inuoconee of the prisouor. They had
come to this conclusion not from sym
pathy, but after a full aud caudid inves.
tigation of all the circumstances sur
rounding the case. All that tho pris
oner asked was a fair and full trial, and
ho trusted tho verdict of tho jury would
set at rest all tho misunderstood circum
stances of this case. Every man was pre
sumei to be innoceut until proven guil.
ty, and yet in this caso tho Assistant
District Attorney, in his opening remar
ks, spoke of the defendant ;8 a monstei
of iuiquity.
Obituary.
JaUKS M. Wayue, one of tho judges
of the tiuprcme of tho United States,
