AVe take the following despatch from the columns of the New York Tribune of yesterday: The Conflitufional Amendment—Projto a if; on for Immediate State Aft ion. ITIILADEI.PHI A, ! Thursday, June 14, EGG. | After the Senate adopted the Consti tutional amendment, justconeuired in by the House of Representative-. Gov ernor Ciirtin addressed a eireular letter to tl.e Governor.-ofali the loyal States. su "fe>li'ur the propriety of Enion in action in callinff together their le{fis!:t tui(> for tlie ratification of that anieiit!- mt nt. Jt is now understood that sucii uniform action will be had and that I before the adjournment of Congress a rat ification of the amendment will he j made. We had more than once heard a hint | that a scheme, of the kind here holdiy avowed, was in contemplation and had i Ic ng been a matter of secret discussion in the councils of the radicals, jhit we did r.ot belie veil. It seemed incred ible. There was nothing in Governor Curtin\s recent political course on which to ground a suspicion that he would lend himself tos .eh a shanu less work, hut, on the contrary, there were many things to justify an assured eon i viction that he would sjmin any con nect;'n with it. But it seems that we were mistaken. We honored him over much. Hohasnot merely given bis s nt to this base s -heme for forestall in ; the judgment of the people uj.on a tpu'stion of vtol interest to them and | their posterity, hut has taken the ini : tiative in it. andappears i.eforothepidt lie its its author. Let us consider what i: i- he proposes to do. It will be remembered that the Leg islature of Pennsylvania, which hepro i poses to "onvene in special session, was , not chosen bv the venule in anticipation that any such am n mints to t!:e Con-; -:i'uti n as tlmse which have rec -ittly . paseed eongrt would be submitted to it. We venture to assert that not -I n gie candidate for a seat in'that bo ly d:;re;l to avow himself, pending ihe; election, an advocate of negro .-'Bfrage. We know positively that every Repub lican who was chosen did his best to convince his constituents, when he so licited their suffrages, that no such pur pose as that of enfranchising the blacks was in contemplation by his parly.— There cannot be a doubt that had the people understood that this question wa> an immediate and practical one, dial it would come up for settlement* by their representatives before another election anil that by choosinjfa Itepub lican Legislature they would give their ;)>-".,{ to tile estab!ishment of negro e quality w.thin tle ir own border> and throughout the land, tivy would have 1 ra-t such an overw!a lining Democratic vote as would have left their opinions in no doubt. But they were deceived, ! and the party which got control of (he Legislature got it on a fglse pretense, ['heir hypocri-y we- all along mani fest to i".s, but we did not suspect them of a design so outrageous as that whi !i ' iovernbrCurtin'scircularforeshat'hiws. It is now proposed to take away from the people the opportunity to -ay 'yea' or.'aay' toqw tion-of near;: r concern P> their rights ; nd inten -ts than any that have ever been pre-ented to them since the Constitution wa- formed.— Their judgment i- to he anticipated. .V partisan Legislature is to be railed together, in special session, to hurry through a work w nich dare teg be trust ed to their >uc\ essors. wh will be eie: t ed with open eyes and a fuil knowit tlge on the j art of their const: ucnts of the interests which will depend upon the choice they make. The Washington Chtonirlr declared lost winter that if th( Republicans -Imuhi go before t!;< peopie t>." IVnnsyh'anm upon tls ? i>-;;e of negro suffrage th y woultl be beaten hoj elesely and d. daration lie- the sot ret of Governor .

No grosser violation of the >pirb of the Constitution than this was ever conceived, even i y the party which I ave distinguished themselvea by lreir ct. Ucmpt for it. "he pA>vision wliich requires amendments ,o be submitteci to the Legislatures of the resp 'Give HKites is, of court- •, dt signet! to secure :.e -• pre.-.-ion of the sense of the pco of each State, speaking through • their representative.-. But, here, the Legislature is summoned to Harris burg to decide a qut-tion of vital im portance upon which the people of Penn-yivauia have not passed, and have had no opportunity to pass,judg ' jiici .t . This is a fraud—-a gross and pal , [table fraud—one which must rou "the I indignation of every honest breast.— I We hope that it will be exposed and denounced as it should be by the whole Conservative pre of the < ommon { wealth. It is this latest and basest of , ihose multiplied outrages upon law, justice, and decency, by which the Re - publican party has hitherto managed i to maintain its power. We protest a gainst it, not merely because of its in trinsic wickedness, but because of the " -trite it promises to engender—the ' stormy future which it for bodes for ' this country. Because we would not see revolution, we protest with all the - might that is in us against ap outrage | which it would almost seem is intend ed to provoke it.— Age. BEDFORD. PA.. FRIDAY MORIFING, JUNE 29. 1866 WHY tIEABY CANNOT BE ELECTED, j The Philidelphia Daily Sees, a Re- ' publican newspaper, whicb is as well I known.as any in this State, very plain ly intimates that General Geary docs i not stand a shadow of a chance ofbe j ing elected, it declares that thousands j of sensible Republicans know that the platform on which he stands will be ; repudiated by the people of Pennsyl ! vania and the candidate with it. We | | make the following significant ex tract : When General Geary was nomina ted, a series of resolutions was passed by the Convention which nominated i | him as the candidate of the "Union": party, and these resolutions contained matter vev different from the declara tion "of principles made at Chicago when Lincoln and Hamlin were nomi nated, and at Baltimore when Lincoln and Johnson wore nominated. They ; also contain assertions concerning the course which President Johnson has pursued which are false in point of fact and grossly offensive in language. I There cannot be a doubt that those res olutions were intended to widen the breach between the friends of the Fed | eral government, and the revolution ; ists who are striving to subvert the Constitution. After the nomination was made we called upon General Geary to repudi ate the offensive resolutions, but thus far he has not done so. There is yet {•me, In:' we can see no good for d . lay nor any fur one for refusing principlewhich now divide the eon ! servativo to state his views candidly to the people. The portion of the E- : nion party from the radical eleme nt arc of such importance that they cun : not i>e ignored at a time when, the reey ] life of thf Jiepitblic at stahe. The si lence of General Geary warrants the impression that he intends to stand upon those resolutions, and i( is cer tain that they art: not the platform of the Union. !t is foilv for any one to hatter him seif with the belief that the radical ! element alone can carry an election in Pennsylvania, even if the conservative Enion men should s'mplv refrain from voting. If any friend of General Geary ! will take the pains to calculate the per centage of votes which the party now ; dominant in the State can afford to lose, without incurring the certainty of defeat, he will find that it is very small; and if he will then estimate the number of votes which the party whose popularity ha- mainly depended upon its living th Union party will lose by l takisut au attitude of hostility to the j Enion, he may he able to' form ajudg mt nt as to the prospects of General Geary's election, if lie shall persist in standing upon the Ilarrisburg rcsolu- i tions.

"ory m ! Slavery in Massachusetts," just pftrb | ii. !:ed by the Appietor.-', is an interest ing and timely work. It appears from | unimpeachable data, thai ofall rite, • stringent slave codes winch imve ex | isted in this country, thatof the Com-j ; mo::wealth which claimed two hun ' dred ye; r ago, and claims now, to be a moral prodigy, was the most arbitra i rv, godless and cruel.

"Do you know the prisoner, 31 r. Wiggins?" "Yes, to the hone." "What is his character?" "Didn't know he I had any." "Docs lie live near you?" "So near that he has only spent FY for fire wood in eight years." AT the recent trial of Gallagher, in Boston, for murder, the iirstjury that was called was a negro. It was sup posed that the negro would be challeng ed, but he was not. KI PI KI.H'AX IJBERAI.ITY. Nothing in the party of "great moral I ideas" is more striking than their lib erality in spending other people's mon ey. 31 r. Thaddeus Stevens >oes no ob jection to clapping a trifle of "twenty or fifty millions of dollars" on the hack of our existing national debt, merely; as a testimonial of our national sym pathy withSenor Juarez and Mr. Rom ero. "Thirty millions," more or loss, is nothing to Thaddeus Stevens, and, in fact, it i> but a paltry sum, being on ly about five times as much as is neces sary for the support of the national Executive, Legislative, and Judiciary, with the governments ofall our Terri tories. Such being the magnificent temper ; of its leader, the party of "great moral ; ideas" makes no difficulty about vot ing Captain Fox the use of an iron-chid ami s2t)o,t)t!(i in money to make a pleas ant summer-trip to Europe, while hard ly a week passes by that the Secretary of War or the Secretary of State does not order a "special train" for some distinguished individual on his way to dine at Washington, the cost of the i train, if not of the dinner also, being ! defrayed out ofthe national exchequer. | General Dulce was thus entertained the other day, and very posdbly San ta Anna may be thus entertained next j week. In England they are growling over the expenses incurred in carrying "St - j rene Highnesses" about ihe country to ; visit the Queen and make love to Ilcr Majesty's daughters. Our republican court is much more magnanimous, spends mom y more freely, and, as we j are a great and liberal people, is nev er bothered by impertinent investiga tions into its little bills and running accounts. GEARY'S r.KrTALiTY. The Ten ■ Democrat, a paper sailing under false colors, and set up by two strangers in this community, not sat-I isfied with advocating the most tit - graded negroeracy and disunion prin ciples, or lighting like the Kilkenny : eats with its kind, meanly and coward ly tries to defame, behind their hacks, men born here. A gentlemen of the j highest respectability visited York, bis j native place, last week after an absence I of -It) years. lie was. cordially received . by his numerou.- relatives and old ac-i qualntances. But as he came from i Virginia, the malignant Yankee editor of this libellous sheet makes a foul and false attack upon him. The cause of litis attack upon Mr. Peter Hartman ! I was that while in company with his : friends, tie related as a part of his ex perience of John W. Geary, the follow ing incident, which is not very crodit | able to the Disunion candidate for Gov ernor: Gen. Geary, while in command in the neighborhood of 31r. Hartman's place, in Virginia, entered upon it, took iii-cattle and his sheep, destroyed hi> fences and burned his barn. Mr. Hart man knowing the General, being both Eeniisyivanians, and we might almost say, neighbors, approached him, and expostulated wiihliim: "General, how •s this? What h::\e ! done?" To which Geary insolently replied: "Ask me no questions, sir," and wantonly ami wii • ally allowed the destruction and dep redation to continue. We submit to the people of thi- com munity whether Mr. Hartman or John \V. Geary, is most entitled to their sideration. — York Press. 12.1 N UICE'S EI.EPEIANT OX A "TEAK." Our readers will remember the ele phant "Romeo," with Dan Rice's -how, which was in this city a week ago. This animal .for some time has been showing indication- of a spirit of insubordination. He showed a Lad disposition on the road between (V.r boiftlale and 3R. Pleasant, refusing" h> turnout for {earns, Re., Arriving at X. w Mi [ford, and s:i!i being unruly, Rice concluded to subdue him, ami for this purpose they chained his hind legs to a tree, and endeavored to fasten a ; rope to his fore leg, and -by tlu se means . throw him. After many fruitless at tempts, the effort was successful. The ipo was attached to a tackle, and six teen n; a combined their strength to pull him down. He fooled thefti.— With a blow of hi? trunk he reieaed hi -fore ieg, and by a treniemfoas ef fort brokethe chains. The men scat tered in all directions pursued by the animal. One of them saw d his life by bounding over a once, and the ele phant, for satisfact on, threw down a ; long span of it. At ii o'clock they laid managed to throw him, and with clubs and spikes were: me. avoringto subdueliim. Some fifty sliots Were fired and tool: effect in his trunk and other portions of his body, but they were only Ilea bites, and were but skin deep.— Scrurdon Herald, | June 9. trie 1 , a " j-jursujjm.

A WOBI) TO DEMOCRATS. ft is now time that Democrats every where, should begin the work of organ izing and getting ready for the coming campaign. They should immediately form active working clubs in each elec tion district in the county ar.d State. Brethren of the same political faith form a close union with each other, and actively engage in the great con test that must be decided at the polls next October. What we want more than anything else, is organization, and unless we have it, close vigorous, and active, we cannot hope to succeed. We believe there is a large Democratic majority in Pennsylvania, but it can not he made effective at the polU without a wellorganizod effort to bring it out. In no other manner can we counteract the powerful organization of the Onion League, which spreads over the country like a jjmit act work. The (a in j aign will open in July, and before that time our forces must be on hand to take an active part in the con t st. Organize then, everywhere, and that without delay. A RUMOR centos fi3i ' THE A I.W d ry OK S-URAXTON DKM -1 o< '.GATic.—The first election in the new city of .Scranton, Luzerne county, was held last week and re-ill ted in a most splendid Democratic victory. E. 8. M. 1 lill the editorof the Re?/is(er, a staunch Democratic journal, was elected Mayor, by 1>!) Majority. All the other Dem ocratic candidates on the city tick! t, except ooe, were elected. In the Select Council i- a tie, but the Democrat- have four majority in Common Council. — The territory embraced within the lim its of the new City gave a very large | Republican majority last fail, and so sure were the disunion abolitionists that they would carry this election, that weare told large bets were made by them on ">OO majority. The spring flood is -till flowing and the rumbling of Thed Stevens'earthquake is louder. The storm will be still more disastrous in the fall.

HENDERSON, of Missouri, introduc ed a milon the 11th, which was refer red to the Commit.ee on Agriculture, providing for the establishment of a "repertory" in Germany, (at Frahik fort-on-the-Main,) to illustrate the physical, political and social condition of the several States of this Union, and to furnish a rendezvous for American travelers, This latter would be very convenient mr gentlemen of means and ; leisure.

Somebody lead better introduce a bill now to reim burse Holland for the Dutchmen who were imported as i borers by agents ol j that State, and then humbugged, kid napped and forced into service to till the State quotas. Holland has the best claim, and South Carolina darkies the next. The third claim is held by or e i of the agent - who tilled one entire quo ta with naval paper-credits. THE Somerset Democrat says that the soldiets of that county were humbug ged into a Denary packed convention under the impression that the subject !of action was bounties. Many, there upon, withdrew in disgust. The Dent j oerfif endorses the proposition for; Soldiers' State Convention in Harris burg to support Hiester Clymer.

BREAD AND BUTTER.— HaII, in bis Jmrnal of Health , gives the following bit of wisdom: Bread and butter are the only articles of food of which we never tire from early childhood to extreme old age. A pound of tint flour or Indian mcul ton tuns three times as much mi at as oi.e pound of butcher's roast tie!; and if t io whole product of the grain, i ran and all, were made into I re d, fiftun percent more of nutriment would be puded. Unfortunately the bran, tl e coarse-1 j art of width gives soundness to the teeth ar.d strength to the brain, .s generally excluded. Five hundred pounds of flour give to the body thirty pounds of the Louyal mcnt, while the same quantity of Iran give- more than one hundred ar.d twen ty-five pounds. The bone is lime, the adit] < nrable aliment of lu ahh to !.< whole la nun body, from the want oljhe natural sup ply of which multitudes of poisons go into a genera! decline.

THE Conservative Republicans of lo ! wa have issued a call for a State Con vention, to he held at Des Moine s oil . the :17th of the present month, for the 'purpose of nominating State officers, ' and concluding the organization of a party opposed to the revolutionary and ! destructive doctrines and practices erf the Radicals. In noticing this move ment an lowa exchange says: "The names appended to the call will be readily recognized as including those of the be-t men in lowa. These names show that the movement is one which includes the better portion,of all those who have hitherto acted with the Re publican party.

FAILED TO COLONIZE.— It seems, I says the New York A' ice, that the col ony of freed no n, sent out to Hayti by the United Stale-Government in !s'(s3, lias proved a failure.
