Friday Morning:. Xovfmber 1, 1867. THE K ECO.VST K ITT IO V FAKCF. IX VIR GINIA. Last week an "election" was held in that part of Military Reconstruction District No. 1, comprised in what re mains of the grand old Commonwealth of Virginia. If anything were wanting to prove the diabolical character of the despotism erected by the Reconstruc tion Acts, this "election" would amply supply the deficiency. The scenes en acted at Richmond, Lynchburg, Pe tersburg and elsewhere, whilst the vot ing was going on, beggar description. Violence, riot and bloodshed, were the order of the day. Arrests by the po lice, and rescues by mobs of blacks, were alternate incidents around the polls and throughout the streets and squares of the principal cities. If a disorderly negro was put under arrest by the police, a riot immediately en sued, and then came the cavalry squad ron, charging with sabre drawn, to disperse the infuriated crowd. Ifa ne gro attempted to vote the conservative ticket, he was assailed by the blacks of the "League," pelted with stones, and beaten with clubs, until death, or a cav alry charge, closed the scene. And thus the farce, tinged with streaks of the bloodiest tragedy, was played to its end. The curtain fell upon the pros trate form of Liberty, the assassin Hunnicut standing defiantly upon the stage, brandishing his bloody dagger in triumph, amid the discordant yells of a pandemonium of negro furies. Vir ginia was Africanized and the only possible end of Congressional Recon struction was accomplished. But we reeoil from further contem plation of the subject. If the recital of facts which are patent to the eyes of all, could add any force to the self-evi dent arguments against the revolu tionary and pernicious measures of Congress, we would not shrink from giving them in full detail. It is, how ever, unnecessary to dwell upon the disgusting theme. The sensible, sober though ted people of the North, have already seen enough of the "Congress ional plan," to convince them of its monstrous character, as well as of its utter futility. The glaring fact, that the government of each and every one of the excluded States, is turned over to a herd of ignorant and brutal blacks, to the exclusion of nine-tenths of the whites, has settled the question against Congress, and no matter how "elec tions" held at the point of the bayonet, may result, "Reconstruction" is as dead as Julius Cesar. Requicscat in pace. "A POOR excuse is better than none." Upon this principle our Radical breth ren are trying to console themselves over their recent defeats. They tell us that their vote was not out, that there was great apathy in their ranks, whilst the Democrats polled their full vote, &c.j &c. They don't seem to re alize the fact that there is hardly an e lection district in the State, in which some of those who formerly voted their ticket, did not this year cast their bal lots for the Democratic candidates. Considering that no pecuniary advan tage, or official patronage, attaches to the office of Supreme Judge, (the only State office voted for) there was a very heavy vote polled. It was never ex ceeded, except last year, and is larger than the home vote cat for President in 1864. It exceeds by 80,000, the vote of 1860, when the "Republicans" car ried the State by 22,660! Let those who talk about the apathy in the Rad ical ranks, remember this fact, that in 1860, the Republicans polled but 238,- 400, and carried the State, as above stated, by 22,660 majority, whilst this year they polled 266,824, or 28,424 more votes than in 1860, and yet are beaten 1,000. A little study of these figures will enable the dullest intellect to dis cover, that it was not "apathy," but re-action , that defeated the Radicals at the late election. THE "best abused" individual, just now, is General Apathy. Andrew Johnson is no-where, compared with him. Doubtless, the lazy, dozing fel low is grievously in fault, but, after all, he is not so much to blame for the collapse of the Radical party, as the people themselves. Take Ohio, for instance. The largest vote ever polled in the State, was cast at the late elec tion. Last year the vote of the State was 469,905, this year it is 484,227, showing an increase of 14,319. The Democratic vote increased 27,016, whilst the Radical vote decreased 12,697, prov ing that there was an actual change from the latter to the former of, at least, the last named number of voters. This is the result of re-action , not of apathy. CAN the Inquirer inform us what has become of the Borie vs. Trott case ? FRAUD. As usual the Radical tricksters have undertaken to play theirgarneof 'count ing-out' the Democratic candidates, and their machinery was well prepar ed for the execution of their nefarious purpose. Taking advantage of the Act of Assembly which provides for the reception of the vote of soldiers in ac tual service, under a requisition of the President of the United States, or by au thority of the (hrnmomcealth, they had Governor Geary issue a commission to one of their tools, authorizing him to proceed to the regular army , and take the votes of persons outside of the Commonwealth, in the service of the 9 United .states. Accordingly this per son proceeded to Fort Delaware.and not withstanding remonstrances of the offi cer commanding the Fort, opened an e lection, and made a return of 118 votes, 113 for Williams and 5 for Sharswood. (Of course I heo votes for Sharswood were returned "to keep up appearances.") This return was counted by the Phil adelphia Republican Judges, and less ens JudgeSharswood'sofficial majority just 108 votes, his true majority being 1030, whilst the Fort Delaware fraud reduces it to 922. Major Morgan, the commander of the Fort, writes to W. L. Hirst, Esq., of Philadelphia, that but 33 votes were polled in all, and that the grater portion of those who voted had no right to vote for Penn sylvania officers. This fraud, having been so thoroughly exposed, the Radi cal plotters, covered with shame, in order to draw the attention of the pub lic from their own infamy, commenced a contest for some of the local offices in Philadelphia, based upon the allega tion of frauds in some of the wards of that city. This is only the old dodge of crying "stop thief," and we are well convinced that nothing will coine of it but idle gossip. The 1- ort Delaware fraud cannot be covered up by any such stale tricks, and the men engaged in it, from Governor Geary, to the miserable knave who forged the return, even if they be not punished by the laws, will sink beneath the contempt and indignation of right-thinking men of all parties. THE history of the Republican party in the United States is the history of progress and liberty. Were it to die to morrow, it wuuld leave such a record as no other party in the history of the world has left.— lnquirer. There is not thesligh test doubt about that! It freed and enfranchised three millions of brutish blacks, to make them slaves of a midnight League, which compels them to vote at the point of the bayonet, and it enslaved five millions-of white people who are not permitted to take any part in the government under which they live. It made prison-pens of the forts and pub lic buildings of the country, and cast men innocent of crime, into loathsome dungeons, to suffer ineffable tortures and die a death of horror. It doomed men to ignominious punishments, without judge or jury, simply because they chose to hold and avow political opinions opposed to its own peculiar dogmas. It even hung up a defence less woman, after heartlessly mocking the tendersensibilitiesof her nature, by exposing her to the devilish burlesque of a trial before a military commission. Finally, it wound up by piling upon the country a debt that weighs the peo ple to the earth, by imposing upon us a most unjust, because unequal, system of taxation, by inventing a plan to keep ten.States out of the Union, at an enormous expenditure of the people's money, by ereetinga military despotism over those States, and to close the scene, by placing ten millions of white people under the domination of three millions of blacks. Verily, "such a record no other party in the history of the world has left," and, God be thanked ! that record is about coming to an end. THEoriginal order of Gen. Schofield, in regard to the holding of the election in Richmond and other large cities in Virginia, named two days upon which the voting was to be done. On closing the polls on the second day, it was discovered that there was a white majority of about 500. As such a re sult was not "on the bills," the polls were re-opened, and another day and night were given Hunnieutt to drum up his blacks, and the voting of negroes was kept up all that day and night, un til the white vote wasovereorne. Great God! what a mockery of the elective franchise, is an "election" like that! JUDGE WOODWARD has been elected to Congress from the Luzerne and Sus quehanna district, by a majority of u| - wards of 0(H). He was elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Hon. Charles Dennison. Judge Woodward was in Europe at the time of his nomination and election, and knew nothingof the action of his friends in making him a candidate. His pres ence in Congress will produce a rat tling among the dry bones of Radical ism. THE Republican party must raise it self above these "rings" formed for mere spoils, or die of corruption.— In quirer. Is it possible? Can it be? We are overwhelmed with amazement! The "Republican" party dying of "corrup tion!" This confession, coming from the Bedford Inquirer, is truly astound ing. When we said previous to the late election, that the "Republican" party was corrupt, the Inquirer was ready to swallow us, so enraged did it become at the "infamous Copperhead lie." But now it "acknowledges the corn." Republicans! What more do you need to convince you that it is your duty to leave this party that is dying of "corruption?" Gov. BROWN now, of Tennessee, has announced himself as a candidate tor United States Senator. We wish Ten nessee could find some one to repre sent her who would add to the dignity of the United States Senate, rather than detract from it .—lnquirer. Oh, ho! Your stomachs are getting a little squeamish, at last. We had thought Brownlow suited your taste exactly. But bow can Tennessee find a decent man among the dominant par ty inlhat State, made up, as it is, of renegade rebels and brutish blacks? THE Inquirer seems to favor legisla tion legalizing the running of street cars on Sunday, in Philadelphia. Tut! tut! that is not in accordance with "great moral ideas !" Take care, boys, lest you be "read out of the party." i ELECTIONS will be held in New i York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, | Delaware, Maryland, Michigan, Wis ; cousin, and Minnesota, on Tuesday next. The Democrats are hopeful of carrying a majority of them. TIIE NEGROIZING OF VIKtiIMA. The following article, copied from the Baltimore Sun, of Friday, last, will give our readers some ideaof the work ! ingof Reconstruction in Virginia: THE SUFFRAGE SPECTACLE IN VIR GINIA. —Whilst Ohio has refused, by an immense majority, suffrage to the comparatively small number of color red men in her population, Virginia, with her vast body of emancipated slaves, has just been subjected to the ex periment of entorced negro suffrage in an election for a convention to form the organic law of the commonwealth.— Weare much mistaken if the parade of returns from that election, and the figures, facts and incidents connected with it, do not greatly accelerate the reaction at the North which has been manifested in the late elections in Northern States. The spectacle which has been exhibited in the Virginia elec tion may well cause all men of any ca pacity of reason and forecast, even in the radical ranks, to pause and reflect what is to be the end of such things. What we have just seen in Virginia is solid organization of blacks, as com pletely under the control of their lead ers as an army under its general in time of war, not only marching to the polls to vote down conservative intel ligence, but to vote down all moderate men, including those well-known as the prominent Union men of the State, and literally to hunt down, to pelt with stones and threaten to hang those of their own collor who attempted to vote the conservative ticket, and fu riously to assault the police when they endeavored to protect conservative men of their own color from their violence. One illustration, out of many, of the manner in which the leaders of the blacks in Virginia have compelled their followers to draw the line between white and black, and make allegiance to one Hunnieutt, an aggrarian white radical, instead of Union principles, the standard of qualification in the lateelec tion of delegates to the convention, is the defeat of Franklin Stearns, Esq., in the county of Henrico. Mr. Stearns is a Northern man by birth, an origi nal Union man of the strongest kind, a gentleman of high character, great en ergy, and tine business talents, and has large interests identified with the wel fare of Richmond and Virginia. This gentleman recognized as one of the most influential republicans of Vir ginia, has been beaten by the president of a local negro league, who is under stood not to have received a white vote in the county. Mr. Stearns has been altogether disinclined to go to the con vention, and only consented in order to save the cou"ty from being repre sented by a man thoroughly incompe tent. Another case is that of a well known leading republican, Lewis Mc- Kenzie, Esq., of Alexandria, a gentle man ol talents and political experience, formerly justly acknowledged by the colored men as their "best friend," who received only ninety-nine votes whilst the selected" chief of the extrem ists received one thousand four hun dred and eighty-seven. The frauds in registration; the injus tice of the apportionment, which, with a large white majority in the State, so arranged the districts as to insure a majority to the blacks in the conven tion ; the contemptuous arraying of the blacks against old Union men; the infuriated and bloodthirsty assaults up on those of tin ir own color who de clined to vole their ticket, and whose lives were only saved by the interposi tion of the military and thepolice, furn ish ample food for reflection of all in the North who read the returns of the Virginia election, and will intensify the reactionary tide which has already set in so strongly from Pennsylvania* and other Northern States, and has com pelled radical leaders like Chief Justice Chase and the Governor elect of Ohio, feeling the ground giving away under them, to abandon an untenable and im practicable position and seek safety in more conservative ideas. The reaction which has begun in the North, and which the scenes just wit nessed in Virginia will greatly strengthen, arises from no animosity to the negro, and from no desire to in terfere with that improvement of his condition and character which under a healthful law of progression, must take place, and which all men of just and benevolent dispositions, both North and South, desire to promote. But all sensible and right-leeling people can only see in the foolish and unnatural process which is producing such fruits of license and brutality as have been borne in the Virginia election, great in jury and ultimate ruin, not only to the whites, but to the blacks of the South. The more reflecting of the blacks themselves in Virginia appreciate the danger of this state of things to their own race, and a prominent man among them, Solon Johnson, of Richmond, issued a card on the eve of the election in which he warns the colored men that the political slavery to which they are reduced by designing leaders, is a worse slaverv than it was before, be cause it is of the mind ; that they ought to avoid lines being drawn between the white and colored people; that the government was made for the good of all, white and black, and that if they persist in supporting the extremists of that State, their friends at the North, who will not permit them to voteamong them, will not permit them to vote at the South. The colored men of Mary land, who have enjoyed greater oppor tunitiesof education and elevation than their race in more Southern States, can not fail to .recognize, with all intelli gent men elsewhere, the force of the exhibition which has been made in Vir ginia, and the utter futility of such disgusting procedures to the advance ment of their race. Anything so ridi culous and monstrous cannot stand— the evil must in time cure itself. TIIE KAUICAIi FRAI'O IX FORT DELA WARE! Startling: Disclosure! Tlie Way in which it was Done and Who Did it ! The following important telegram has been received by William L. Hirst. Esq., of this city, from General Town send, in reference to the Fort Delaware election fraud. The document speaks for itself, and, at present, needs noeom ment: WAR DEPARTMENT, October 15, 1867. \Vm. L. Hirst, Esq., 211 South Sixth street, Philadelphia: In reply to your letter of October 12, received yesterday, General Grant di rects me to send you the following copy of telegram just received trom the com manding officer at Fort Delaware: FORT DELAWARE,Oct. 14,1867. General E. D. Tounsend, Assistant Adjutant General: 1 was in Philadelphia when the elec tion occurred here. Colonel Howard, who was in command, reports that a citizen presented himself here with a commission from Governor Geary, un der the seal of Pennsylvania, appoint ing him to take the votes of Pennsyl vania soldiers at this post. Colonel Howard told him that he was under the impression that such an election wits not legal. But as the man had a com mission from Governor Geary, In allow ed him to take the votes. I add, on my own authority, that I have ascertained that a large proportion of the men vot ing had no vote in the State under any circumstances. It is said only thirty three (33) votes were polled, while over a hundred (100) were returned. No of ficers were concerned one way or the other in this election. (Signed) C. H. MORGAN, Major Fourth Artillery, Brevet Brigadier-Gen. Commanding. E. 1). TOWNSEND, Assistant Adjutant General. THE X KCESSITYOF THE TIMELY DIS TRIBUTION OP POLITICAL INFORMA TION. —We recommend the following, from the Cincinnati Enquirer , to the serious consideration of the Democracy of Bedford county: "The New York Tribune , in com menting on the result of the recent elections, makes the following sugges tions : " 'Flooding the country with print ed matter, on the eve of an elec tion, is a desperat.wesort, better than nothing, that is all. No reliance can be placed on it; little good ordina.ily comes of it. But begin now, and syste matically insure that every man that has a vote shall have a newspaper, if he will take it, and all is safe.' "That is very true. If it is desirable that the people be indoctrinated with correct political sentiments, they should be furnished with the arguments long in advance of the election, in order that they can thoroughly turn them in their minds, and study them while working at their benches, or on their farms, or other places of occupation. Now is the time to commence the distribution of information, in a printed form, prepar atory to the next Presidential election. No election since the foundation of the Government, can compare in import ance to the one we are about entering upon, and never before were the people so imperatively called upon to inform themselves as to the issues upon which the contest must be decided. We have gratifying evidence that the people, Democrats and Republicans, are awak ening to the importance of this matter. Since the election we have received up ward of three thousand new subscrib ers, daily and weekly, one-third of whom, we are written, are Republicans. The sign is an auspicious one, and we hope it will continue to be manifested for months to come. Every person who can afford it, should take two political papers, one of either side. If he can nut afford to take two, he should by all means strain a point to take one, and that one should be of his own political faith. Immense interests hang upon the event of the Presidential election of 1808, and every citizen should be pre pared to meet the responsibility cast upon him as a voter. The newspaper is the cheapest instructor he can tiud." DE.MOREST'S ILLUSTRATED MONTH LY.—The current number of this favor ite periodical is a very good one. In addition to its usual illustrations, inclu ding its colored fashion plate, there are three large plates devoted to fashions, and another feature of special interest to ladies, viz: a full-size pattern of Winter cloak.

XEWS AX D OTHER ITEMS. —Elisha Brady, a Radical ward poli tician of Baltimore, was shot and kill ed between three and four o'clock on the morning of the 22d ult., by John Bowers, whilst the former was in the act of cutting the halyards of a hickory pole erected by the Democrats. This was too great a punishment for the offence, we think, but Ben Butler did not think so when he hung Mumford at New Orleans for hauling down the the flag. Nor did Gen. Slocum (or Stanton) when he said: "If any man hauls down the American flag, shoot him on the spot." —The full official vote of Ohio is in. It shows that the largest vote ever cast in the State was polled at the late elec tion. It foots up 481,277, which ex ceeds any previous vote by 8,000. The republicans polled 242,60-", for Hayes, and the democrats 240,022 for Thurman. Of sixteen congressional districts car ried by the republicans last fall, seven now go democratic. The heaviest re publican loss in any one district is 7,000. —Mrs. Hoffman, the woman who was stabbed in church at Canton, Ohio, on Sunday, the 13th ult., by a divorced husband, died on Saturday last. Hoff man hung himself in his cell on Sunday night. He had tried to kill himself by bumping his head against a wall, but failing in this, made a rope from his bed-clothing and hung himself to the wall of his cell. — FOR some time past, a company of outlawed freedmen, numbering about a dozen, have been squatted on Gen. Hampton's lands, within five or six miles of Charleston, S. C., known as the "Old Furnace Tract." These freedmen, armed with guns and other warlike weapons, have on several oc casions stopped travelers and demand ed their money or their life. —lt is related that in Virginia City, Nevada, a poor widow, examining an old vest of her deceased husband, found a dirty paper in the pocket, which, on examination, proved to be the deed of three feet of a valuable mining claim. The secretary of the company inform ed her that it was genuine, and that $l,BOO in dividends was due on it. She took the money, sold the dirty paper for $14,000, and went to her home and friends in the East. —Virginia has nine and a half mil lions acres of improved and eleven and and a-quarter millions acres of unim proved lands. Plenty of room for im provement still. —St. Louis has the largest skating rink in this country.

The Virginia farmers say they are inferior to the native breed, being chiefly legs and horns. —James Herring, for twenty-seven years Secretary of the Grand Lodge of Masons of New York, died lately in Paris. —Apian for a system of storm signals, to be used on the Cape Hatteras light house, is under consideration. —Of the one hundred delegates elec ted to the Alabama reconstruction con vention, sixteen are negroes and but two conservatives. —A reporter in the office of the Bath (Maine) Times, ran nine miles in one hour and two minutes, the other day. —There is an immense immigration of Mormons to Salt Lake just now. Many of them are Danes. THE PLAN of the Washington Libra ry Company of Philadelphia, for the endowment of the Riverside Institute for Soldiers and Sailors' Orphans, is one that has been laid out in strict accor dance with the terms of the charter as granted for this purpose by the Legis lature of Pennsylvania. This charter of the Washington Library Company, legalizes the very acts that its mem bers are now performing for this noble object. The plan as most of our readers are aware, consists in selling stock at §1 per sliare, each share being accompani ed by a handsome fine steel-plate en graving, worth fifty per cent more than is actually paid for the stock. — Besides this, every share of stock se cures one present in the great distribu tion of presents to shareholders. Of these presents the aggregate value is §BOO,OOO, one of them being worth the enormous sum of §40,000, another $20,- 000, another $lO,OOO, and one worth $•>,000, and two worth $2,500 each, sev eral worth $l,OOO each, and soon. This is simply the plan in brief as adopted and presented to the public. Every shareholder will obtain some present in the great distribution, besides the beau tiful engraving at the time of purchase, and each one has an equal chance of getting a small fortune. AN OLD WOMAN picking up bits of pa per, twine and other sweepings about the streets, is a good illustration of the genius of patience, perseverance and hope in the pursuit of gain. It never makes fame,but it sometimes makes mo ney. The old madams are not always the wretches they look. CANCER, SCROFULA, &C., CURED.— Persons afflicted with Cancer, Scrofula.
