The Police Commissioners for the city of Baltimore are appointed by the Leg islature of Maryland, and are remova ble by the same authority, and when the Legislature is not in session, the < iovernor may remove them and ap point others in their stead. It appears that the present board of Police Com missioners, in exercising the functions of their office, have been guilty of de liberate and wilful malfeasance, having inthe appointment of judges of elec- ' lion in the city of Baltimore (which is one of their dutiesjexhibited the mean- 1 off partisanship, and selected the vilest andiiasest creatures to sit in judgment : upon the rights of the freemen of Bal timore. The evidence in regard to the 1 character of these judges of election, ! produced before Gov. Swann, shows j them to he thieves and murderers and villains of lowest degree, men unlit to j be tolerated in any civilized comma- ! nity, much loss to he made judges of j the most sacred privileges inherent in ! American citizens. Well, because Gov. ; Swann has taken steps to inquire into the character of these men, with a view to remove the Police Commissioners for appointing such scoundrels to office, John W. Forney, the Baltimore Amcr icftn, and the Radical leaders generally, hare organized an armed conspiracy/ to resist the Governor, should he see fit to ; oust the Police Commissioners. These Radical rebels are determined to sus tain the men who appoint murderers and keepers of houses of ill-fame as judges of elections, even if blood must he shed to do it. Of course, Forney and the editors of the American , and such cowardly miscreants, don't mean | to shed any of their precious blood, but they a rest riving to work up the passions of their blindedand reckless followers so as to retain by force their ill-go .ten pow- j or in the city of Baltimore. What do i Pennsylvania "Republicans," who still ! have some sense of decency left, think of such outrageous and revolutionary j proceedings? Do they endorse Forney j and the rest of the Radical Rebels? Let them read the following, which is j a part of the testimony taken before ! Gov.

Two of the Fenian prisoners in Can ada have been tried, convicted, and sentenced to suffer death. Their names are It. 15. Lynch and John McMahon —the former a Colonel of the Fenian forces, and the latter a priest, who ac companied the Fenians in the capacity of Chaplain. We hope that these un fortunate men will not be made to suf fer the penalty adjudged to them. Their offense is purely a political one, and Groat Britain ran afford to be mag nanimous to those who committed it. All America will plead for the release of the ill-starred Fenians, and especi ally the Democracy of the country will rise up as one man to demand that not one hair of their heads shall be hurt. The Irish people have been true and tried friends of this Republic. Shall they now be friendless in their deep affliction? No, the Government of the United States owes them its best and strongest word in behalf of mercy. That word will l>e spoken and in a tone that cannot be mistaken. Let it not be delayed a single day. —Since writing the above, we have read with great gratification the pro ceedings of the Democracy of New York city, assembled in Tammany Hall, for the purpose of taking action upon the cases of Lynch and McMahon. The resolutions passed by this assem blage demand that the Fenian prison ers be delivered to the United States authorities, and warn the British gov ernment that if their blood be shed it shall not flow unavenged. We have, also, the satisfaction of laying before our readers the following letter from Secretary Seward to Sir Frederick Bruce, the British Minister at Wash ington, which gives ample assurance : that the United States government will not jiermit the execution of Lynch and ! MeMahon. DEPARTMENT OF STATE. } WASHINGTON, October 2d, lStll. \ SIR: It is understood that James Lynch and .John MeMahon have been recently convicted in a Colonial Court of Canada, and sentenced to death upon a charge that, being citizens of the Uni ted States, they were actors in the as sault made in the month of June last, at Fort Erie, in that colony. it can hardly be necessary to direct your attention to the fact that the gov ernment of the United States is requir ed by the highest considerations of! national dignity, duty, and honor, to inquire into the legality, justice, and regularity of the judicial proceedings which have thus taken place, and that after making such a careful scrutiny, we shall expect to make known to her Majesty's government such opinions as the President, upon due consideration, shall adopt. With this view, the U. S. Consul at Toronto is this day instruc ted to procure, for the information of this Department, a copy of the record of the trial and conviction of Lynch and .MeMahon, and also of all further trials and convictions of a similar char acter which shall take place in Canada. While no unnecessary delay in the ex amination of the eases which are thus expected to come before this govern ment is intended, it may nevertheless happen hereafter that delays will una voidably result from past incidents or from future events which cannot now be foreseen. I have now the honor to request you to take such proceedings as you may think projier, to the end that such ap plications of the Consul shall he grant ed promptly. The President directs me to assure you of his confident hope that her Majesty's government will not j only cheerfully comply with the re | quest I have thus made, hut that they : will think it proper also to examine i the judicial proceedings aforesaid with i it careful regard to tiie rights of the I United States, and to the maintenance jof good relations between the two j countries. Such relations are always ; difficult and delicate in States that are j adjacent to each other without being separated by inqnissable borders. For ! this reason it would be very gratifying to the President if you should he able I to give me an assurance that the exe | cution of the sentences pronounced up | on the convicted persons will he sus : pended, if occasion for delay shall arise ,in the manner before mentioned to • make it desirable. Finally, I deem it proper to say that ! the offenses involved in these trials are 'in their nature eminently political. It is the opinion of this government that i sound policy coincides with the be.-t j impulses of a lienevolent nature inree i ommending tenderness, amnesty and ; forgiveness in such eases. This suggestion is made with free -1 (loin and earnestness, because the same | opinions were proposed to us, incur | recent civil war, by all the governments and publicists of Europe, and by none 1 of them with greater frankness and I kindness than by the government and 1 statesmen of Great Britain. I am very sure that you will find that these recommendations of a jiolicy of ! clemency and forgiveness in the case of ! the parties concerned, are in entire bar | moiiy with all the suggestions and rep j resentations which this government I has made to her Majesty's government < in regard to the aggressions which have I been made 011 the Canadian frontier; ! and that they are also in harmony with tht proceeding- which this government has thought it just, wise, and prudent to pursue in regard to the violation of its own neutrality which was involved in those aggressions. i have the honor to he, with the high est consideration, sir, your obedient servant, W. 11. SEWARD. I To the Hon. Sir Frederick Bruce. THE Democrats |tolled 290,e0n votes at the recent election, and get under the present infamous apportionment, 6 members of Congress. The Radicals i (Milled 606,000 votes, and get 18 inem ibers. In other words, it takes 48,664 Democratic votes to elect a mem Iter of Congress, whilst it takes hut 17,000 Uad j ical votes to do the same tiling. Is there anv fairness, or honesty, in such i .> an apportionment ? GEN. W. B. FRANKLIN has been brevetted Major-General in the regular service. IT appears that a pretty general ef fort is being made to ferret out the frauds perpetrated by the Radicals at the recent election in this State. Our exchanges teem with developments of the most outrageous violations of the purity of the ballot-box. If the tricks and diablerie by which the Radicals elected Oea#y are not exposed, and those engaged in them punished, we shall never have another fair election in Pennsylvania until the rule of such scoundrels ends in the blood of revolu tion. We hope, therefore, that a full investigation will be made of the Rad ical frauds, and that the facts connected with them will he laid before the pub lic. Of course there is no use in con testing the election of Governor, or members of Congress, for even if 00,- 000 fraudulent votes were proved to have been counted for Geary, the Leg islature would not give the seat toCly mor, and if all the thousands of colo nized voters and minors who elected Covode, Cake, Finney and other Radi cals to Congress, were compelled to testify to the illegality of their votes, the Democrats who were honestly elect ed to Congress would still be kept out of the places to which they were fairly chosen by the people. Nevertheless, let a full exposition of the Radical frauds be made and placed before the public eye. Let the Chairman of the Democratic State Committee, through the several County Committees, insti tute an investigation which will bring to light the scoundrelism of our ene mies, in every nook and corner of the State. At least this good would result from such ;t course—it would expose the arts and tricks by which we are beaten, and would teach the Democrats how to meet them in the future. Let us, we repeat, have an investigation. THE DATE OL' THE NEGRO PERIOD. It will be remembered how vehem ently John Cessna and other sharp ora tors of the Radical Disunion party, pro tested that the Civil Rights Dill did not mean Negro Suffrage. They knew that their own party would construe it to mean that very tiling, and yet, in order to blindfold their party, they stood up and lied them into its endorse ment. Head the following which we copy from an Ohio paper and then tell us that the Radicals don't claim the right of suffrage for the blacks under the Civil Rights Dill: The date of the negro-equality peri od, inthe Northern Statesman - be fixed at October 9, 18(56. In Ohio the negroes were allowed to vote, without distinc tion of color, at all polls—outside of a few counties—where Radical Judges officiated. It was the same in Indiana. One correspondent writes us: "XKNIA, Oct. 9, 1866. "Every negro voted to day that offer ed his ballot." "CEDARVILLF., GREENE CO., O. "Forty-five full blown blacks voted at this precinct to-day. The Judges took their votes, declaring that under the Civil Rights Dill they were as well entitled to vote as the whites." "RICHMOND, IND., Oct. 9, 1866. "The Judges here allowed full blood ed negroes to vote, the same as whites, and justify themselves under the Civil Rights Bill." THE Radical Rebels in Maryland have put themselves in open antago nism to the authority of the Governor. Jack Forney (the dead duck) Jack Cess na and several other jacks have been braying around Baltimore, for the pur pose of stirring up sedition and rebell ion, but at last accounts the back-bone of the Radical Rebels was getting rath er weak. They are a set of miserable cowards and wouldn't fight a Ilea. THE Radical majority on the vote for members of Congress, in this State, is only 11,000. This was the real test in the late election, as the question was between the President and Congress. The result shows a Radical loss of 11,- 000, and a corresponding gain for the President. Si;x>rnLE KOU OXOK. —'The Harris burg I'dcqrapb, one of the most sense less, lying journals in the State, has hit upon a little hit of common sense and truth for once. Comparing the condi tion of the negroes in the South now, with what it was before the success of abolitionism, it says: "In slavery the black man hud pro tection ftcmrd'd him. His life was val uable to his master. There was money in the flesh of his wife and children, and therefore they were not siitiered to be brutalized unto death. But who now protects the black man, his wife, or his children? They have no protec tors. There is no money any longer in tiieir flesh and hones. They cannot be bought or sold, and therefore they are not on rahutbU' as dof/s." This is the first paragraph that ap proximated to truth thai we have seen in that pa|>er for months. If the Ttlc r/roph don't lose some of its admirers in this neighborhood on account of it, it will be because it will make tip for being truthful once by lying ten times harder than ever.— lic/ltfonte Watch man.

MEYERS I do not know | whether you will print any thing writ ten by a "Republican," but I suppose ; you will not be so exclusive as to all "Republicans," for you must remem ber that some of us voted for you at the late election. At any rate I ven ture to send you a few words written in defence of Old Southampton. Xot that Southampton needs any defence, for she is proof against attack upon the virtue and intelligence of her citizens. As for her politics, I have nothing to say ; her people think for themselves, and f will not quarrel with them even for doing that. But I was grieved, nay, 1 felt outraged, at several articles in the Bedford Inquirer , of last week, imputing ignorance to our people, and exhibiting a spirit of spitefulness dis graceful to any public journal in this enlightened age. One of these articles is a communication over the signature of "Pilgrim," which undertakes to caricature the hahits, the education and the religion of the folks in this region. This wandering philosopher, this ram bling epitome of all that is great and learned and pious and noble, saw "no thriving villages—no neat cottages"— "no temple of prayer," &c. Why, as for "thriving villages," there are just about as many of them in Southamp ton, as there are in Monroe, or J •last Providence, or Ilopewell, each of which i.-, no doubt, considered by "Pilgrim," a perfect Paradise of "Republican" in telligence and piety ; as for "cottages," we compare favorably, at least, with "Texas," the western end of Bedford borough, where J am told the body of the "Republican" vote of that borough is located; and as for "temples of pray er" (in our simplicity we call them clmrche* , hut, then, we haven't gone to free school yet) I need only call the attentionof those who have visited our township to this uncalled-for libel, to ensure its refutation. The beauty of our ladies, says this virtuous "Pilgrim," was of a style that had no charms for him. No, 1 presume not. Their style wasn't copied from that of some of his •nocturnal associates in the alloys of his own town. Virtuous beauty could have nocharms for a fellow like him. "The walking-machines called men, were of every hue," says "Pilgrim." Xot quite, gentle sir. None o£ them are black, oryou would not have been quite so severe upon them, for you wouldn't, of course, abuse those with whom you associate. But, .Mr. Pilgrim, you talk about education, decaying school-hous es, Ac. Pray, where did you get your education? What seminary of learn ing is honored with your great name upon itsroll of students? "Upon what food has this our Oesar fed that he has grown so great?" If you have been to free school, we don't want the sys tem in Southampton. Why, you don't know the simplest rudiments of Eng lish Grammar, witness the following sentence: "Scenes of grandeur, visions of beauty rose before him, but when he awoke it was gone." Yes, "it was gone," that is, "the scenes of grandeur was gone," "the visions of beauty was gone!" Xow, aren't you ashamed of yourself! Any of those boys whom you saw wearing "nature's own moc casins, blue and bloodless," could teach you to write better English than that. Xext time you send a communication to the Inquirer, tell the editors to cor rect your mistakes, that is, if they can tin it, for I apprehend they are as great asses as yourself. I'll wager a pound of snake-root that I can select a dozen men from both political parties in this township, who can write a better hand, compose an article with fewer gram matical errors, spell more correctly, do more difficult mathematical problems, than either you or the editors of the Inquirer. I will pit either of the Don ahues and Clay Lashley against the best of you. Xow, I have done, except this, if you want any "Republican" votes hereafter in Southampton tp., you must treat us with at least com mon dec-ncy. HOMESPUN. Uheneysville, Oct. 30, 1800. xirr.

RADICAL RIOT AT IIACiERSTOWX, MD. One I'oliceman Killed nnrt another I>nii geronslj; Wounded. The tinnier I'nrt.v of Maryland. It becomes our duty as public jour nalists to give a clear and truthful j statement of the bloody scenes enact ed at the Radical meeting, held in this place, on Saturday last. That the gatli- j ering was a large one, 110 one that wit nessed it will pretend to deny, but it j was composed largely of women, ehil- j drenand negroes, from Western Mary land, bogus Virginia and Pennsylva nia, so that it couldn't help being a! "big affair." The procession headed by the most I patriotic of the party—office-holders and office-seekers as a general thing— marched and counter-marched through the principal streets of the town, as is usual on such occasions, with banners and flags floating in the breeze. The grand parade over, there was a dismis sal for dinner, after which, the radical fighting material began to develop it self. The lirst "set-to" occurred in the bar-room of Stanhope's ilhtel, between two men—both Radicals. < >ue of these men held a flag, which he waved for ef fect, and, imagining that oneof the by standers had offered the emblem insult, proceeded deliberately to knock him down. The row commenced, when three of the Police Officers, Charles Gall, Robert Sands and Charles Ride nour, the two first returned Union soldiers, appeared promptly, as was their duty, and attempted to preserve the peace and quiet of the town. On declaring that the peace should be pre served, and getting the crowd out of Mr. Stanhope's Hotel, with little or no disturbance, they were surrounded on the out-side of the house by a mob, when some one cried out they were no policemen, but d—m rebels ; the mob then made violent threats, and exhib ited the most menacing attitude. The policemen, who were three brave men, held their ground resolutely as long as it was possible for them to do so, stri ving to preserve the peace, and Gall telling them they might shout for whom they pleased, but they m#st light. The policemen finding that they were being overpowered, that their efforts to pre serve order would prove of no avail, retreated slowly down Jonathan Street, stones being hurled at them, and the crowd rushing upon them, when they turned and fired, which checked the mob for a short time, and afforded the policemen time to take refuge in the house of James Kuhn —a veteran sol dier who served his country faithfully, when the mob became doubly infuria ted at the sight of a splendid Johnson pole which had been erected by the "boys in buie" in front of this house, and on the top of which floated a beau tiful American flag—the "stars and stripes." When the mob approached, the cry was raised tocutdown the pole, when tiling on the mob from the win dows of the house commenced. The street was literally blocked With the mob, extending from the Court House to the scene of the fighting. Con spicuous amongst the mob was a prom inent individual of this place, a fire brand, again urging men the third time to deeds of violence, the horrors of which we sicken to record. Oh, that the passions of men could not be so readily inflamed at the bidding of a man who thirsts for office, and who, to accomplish his desires sets the laws at defiance, and brings upon us scenes that we shudder now to sketch. The fight was now kept up, and several times the mob backed, when officer Gall, pointing a carbine out of the win dow and exposing his head, a shot pierced his brain, and lie fell to the pavement beneath, a lifeless corpse. The mob then rushed forward, the two remaining policemen, with a few friends who had rushed to their assist ance, making their escape at the back door. In attempting his escape, how ever, Robert Sands, one of the police men, was overtaken, and while held fast by several men, received a danger ous stab in the right breast, penetra ting the lung. At lirst it was feared that Sands was injured fatally*, but hopes are entertained that he will now recover. The pole was cut down, and faLUng upon the roof of the house smash ed it in, after which the house was gutted and literally torn topieces.-This closing performance, we suppose, was done for the reason that both Kuhn and Rife, who kept a saloon in the house, had been Union soldiers, but chose to differ with the Radicals, and were the friends of the President and the Gov ernor. 1 lad they not the right to raise the National emblem, the "Stars and Stripes," under which they fought so bravely, over their building? The cutting down of the pole with the flag which the Radicals claim to have so much respect for, and which was rais ed by Union soidiers, is a lasting dis grace—a foul blot upon the names of those who committed it. What! cut down the American flag—that glorious emblem of liberty, and that too, over the building of men who braved the dangers of the battle-field to uphold and defend it, and who loved to sing— "Ami the sfar-spanglod banner, Oh long may it wave O'er the land of 'he free, And the Lome of the bravo!"' Did not Ben Buffer hang a man in New Orleans for cutting down the A mericau flag, and have such proceed ings become now less odious? ljet us reflect, and perhaps we will conclude that times have changed sadly since it was considered a crime to cut down the American flag. W hat was (reason then, seems to be "loyalty" now. Times are sadly out of joint, and we live to learn.— Hagerslown Mail. DEMOCRATIC MEETING IN THE I!ITH WARD. —A meeting of Democratic cit izens of the Nineteenth Ward was held last evening, at the corner of Norris street and Frankford road, for the pur pose of investigating into the alleged frauds said to have been committed at the late election.
