ill? |?ilf.tml Friday JiornliiK, November 27, l*V II 1 I/I' ! We are unpleasantly compiled to stop the editor of the Inquirer in his "mad career."' In liis last week's issue he goes on after this fashion : "It has passed homestead and ex emption laws, it has given laboring men free homes, it has protected them from the competition of the pauper la bor of Europe, it exempts them from national taxes, while the copperhead party has just been defeated in the at tempt to tax the poor man's last dol lar at the same rate with the rich man's luxuries. The Inquirer is discoursing of the benefits conferred upon the poorer classes by the Radical party. The mendacity of the string of assertions above quoted, is beyond parallel. Does the Inquirer dare to say, in the face of history, that the "Republican" or Radical party is the author of our homestead laws? Why } the principal enactments classed under that head, were passed before the "Republican" party was born. Hon. John L. Daw son, one of the leading Democrats of this state, acquired a national reputa tion by his advocacy of the Homestead Bill, as early as 18"1~2. That was a Democratic measure and all other homestead laws have been modeled after it. And how about the exemp tion laws? Why upon the face of ev ery note waiving the exemption laws, is specified "the act of 1849, exempting $:>00 worth of property fi< in levy and sale." Was the "Republican" party in existence in 1849? If our memory is correct, it came into life with the Fremont campaign of ISGG, seven years after this exemption law was passed. As to giving anybody "free homes," there are plenty of anxious "Republi cans" who would like Mr. l.utz to in form them where they can be had, as they are ready to start for them at once, even if they lie at the head wa ters of Salt River. "It has protected them from the com petition of the pauper labor of Europe." If this means anything, it means that high tariffs have been put upon iron in order to prevent the foreign manu facturer from shipping that article to this country and selling it here at low er prices than those asked by the do mestic manufacturer. Is any body fool enough to believe, for a moment, that the enhanced price of iron bene- ! fits the laborer in the ore bank or the furnace? He must be simple-minded, indeed, who has any such thought. It benefits the manufacturer, not his em ployee. And why not the latter? Be cause the wages of labor are not regu lated and determined by the profits oi capital. If this were so, there would be no pauper labor in Europe nor any where else; there would never have j been negro slavery in the South, nor white slavery in the factories of New England. Tariffs protect capital, not labor. And, again, much more of the labor of this country, especially of the naval districts, is employed upon ag riculture and the mechanic arts, than in mines and furnaces. Does the farm er pay his workmen more because he is compelled to give a higher price for the iron in his plough and the steel in his axe ? Or does the artizan pay his journeymen better wages because the tariff makes him pay more for his tools? None but a madman can an swer these questions in the affirmative. Every man who uses these articles, the cost of which is enhanced by the tar iff imposed upon them to "protect" our manufacturers from the "competi tion of the pauper labor of Euroje," is made to suffer in order to build up the capitalists who manufactures them. Tiiree-fourths of the laboring men of the United States use those articles, in some lorm or oilier. The protection they receive from tariffs is the protec tion which wolves give to lambs. "It exempts them from national t ixes." It apjiears that, in the ethics of the Inquirer , "a lie well stuck to is as good us the truth." We a-k the editor of that paper, does not the la boring man pay taxes in stamps, in du ties upon the fabrics he wears, and in the prices of the food he < ats enhanced by licenses and other federal taxes? Is not the butcher a laborer and does not he pay a federal license? And do not laborers generally eat meat and is not the price of meat higher than former ly on account of the butcher's license and other federal taxes ? Is not the miller a laborer and does lie r.ot pay a federal license? And do not some ta borers eat bread when they can get it, and is flour cheapened by the fact that the miller must pay a license and oth er federal taxes? Ah! Lutz, l.utz, you are -inning again-t light and knowledge and you hud better repent soon or the devil will not let you off as easy as your illustrious compeer, Torn Pepper! As to the Democratic party attempt- ; ing "to tax the poor man's last dollar ' at the same rate with the rich man's luxuries," we have several times ex ploded that lie. We do wish Lutz would get up some new charge against us Democrats, even if it Is* never so false. We are tired of bursting up his old ones. They begin to smell. If taxing the bond-holders, as proposed by the Democratic party, was meant to tax the poor man's last dollar, then j it would not be a bad thing to be a poor man with a last dollar. Rothschild, and the rest of the bond-holders on the other side of the Atlantic, must belong to the "pauper laborers of Europe !" Oh, yes! The laborer now gets "two dollars per day!" How nice! form erly he got but fifty cents per day. How many pounds of coffee ran the la borer buy for Li - two dollars to-day? From five to six. How many pounds of coffee could he buy for his fifty cents twelve years ago? Why, from five to six. And so with other articles which the laborer consumes. How much this radical party* lias benefited the laborer! Its next step will be to abolish labor and feed everybody out of the national soup-howl. •Mr :MI.I noxs. The Inquirer has lost its prestige a- the j organ of the Radical party of this coun ty. Bloody Run has robbed poor Lutz of his blushing honors. The meeting . on Tuesday evening of last week, was run completely in the interest of the Bloody Run machine. Hence the In quirer is quite sore-headed. It is bad ly out of sorts. It even scolds the chairman of the Radical county com mittee, Esq. Lingenfelter. We give its article in full, as follows: In our local columns will be found the resolutions offered at the meting on Tuesday night. With theexeeption ■ of the 4th an . oth they are fully and heartily endor-wl by every Republican in the county. The Ith may not be specially objectionable, as we all ad mire Gov. Geary, but it is a little premature to attempt to commit the Republicans of Bedford county with out giving them a chance to indicate their choice, lor which there is abun dant time before the nomination for our next Governor can be made. The nth resolution is highly objectionable. Not only have we a candidate for Uni j ted States Senator in our owu district, Hon. Edward McPherson than whom there is no better in the State, and to whom it would be an unpardonable lack of courtesy, but the great majority of our people are unqualifiedly in favor of him as their candidate. Again, c ven the leading Republicans of the county were not consulted at all; the resolutions were prepared apparently by a single individual, the committee j appointed and the resolutions sprung upon the meeting, the writer of them quickly moving their adoption almost before the Chairman of his committee was done reading them. We have been unable to find a sin gle republican outside of the parties i managing the affair, who either con sents to or in any way approves of the I resolution. The Republicans of Bed j ford county cannot allow any single | individual to commit them or their representative to any man for United States Senator. With all due respect and the highest personal esteem for Hon. John Scott, admiring his abili ty and honoring hi.- integrity the Ue ; publicans ,of Bedford county cannot and do not endorse him a- their first choice for United States Senator nor will they regard their Assemblyman as in any way bound or committed by the resolution referred to. We hope the chairman of the County Commit tee will hereafter take charge of these meetings as usual and prevent any fu ture unfortunate occurrences of this kind." _ Now that Grant, is elected, he is al ; ready beset with a host of borers for of fice and selt constituted advisers.—ln quirer. We had thought that these virtuous radicals hurrahed for Grant and bellow - ed for Colfax, and roared and ripped up and down the country generally, mere ly because they wanted the country j saved front the pesky "rebels." But it ! seems after all, that they only wanted the offices. I GRANT says to the thousands who are boring the life out of him with ap plications for positions, "Let us have | peace." These words do not posse-s the same charm nor sound so musical j in the ears of the Radical office seekers as they did some weeks ago. The Radicals now hold that they are enti tled to a "piece" as well as Grant. A 1.1 I I I.i: AFK.VKI*. Gov. Geary has issued his procluma ! tion declaring the election of the sever al persons returned to the office of the the secretary of the cumin n wealth as eleeted to the forty-first congress, in thp several districts of the state, but has seen tit to omit from the list the name of Hon. Henry D. Foster, returned for ■ the 21st district. He says: "In the twenty-first district, com posed of the counties of Indiana, Westmoreland and Fayette, no such j returns of the election have been re ceived by the secretary of the common wealth, its would, under the election laws of the state, authorize me to pro- I claim the name of any person as hav ing been returned duly elected a mem ber of the house of representatives of the United State- for that district." Now, t woof the three return judges for the twenty-first district, certified to the secretary of the commonwealth the election of llettry D. Foster; the other refused to sign the certificate, and, it is alleged, made out a certificate of his own setting forth the election of John Covode. If the governor's action, in this matter be founded on correct prin ciples, then a -ingle mulish or design ing return judge can always prevent the insertion of the name of the duly elected member of Congress in the gu bernatorial proclamation. But we ; doubt not that Gov. Geary desired to proclaim Gen. Foster elected, but he was a little afraid that if he did so, a certain candidate for a certain radical nomination might suffer -ome damage, j Poor, timid fellow ! There is a movement on foot among politicians on both sides to remove Su perintendent Kennedy, of the New York police force, on the ground of va rious acts of tyranny and oppression in office. 3Mf)t affeQfoett (Brfl 33ptifovtl> sta KFFIKAIiE. If women's rights are not promptly j recognized, it will not be the fault of . the women themselves, for they are moving with wonderful energy in the j matter. Conventions are being held in every part of the country. Speech es of the most earnest character are got j off by lair orators, and a spirit of deter- ] initiation manifested that augurs pro pitiously for ultimate success. Last j week a woman's rights convention j assembled in Boston, which was large ly attended, and at which the question of negro suffrage was warmly advooat- i ed. Julia Ward Howe spoke at length on the subject, stating among other things the fact that for a long time she had said and written much against woman suffrage, but when the ballot had been given to the negro she thought it was time that women should enjoy that franchise also. Lucy Stone Black well gave an account of the attempt of the women to vote at Vineland, and • the refusal of their votes. This irrepres sible ladyinformed heraudiencethatshe had come to thedeterminedconclusion that it would "never do to give it up so," and had accordingly entered suit against the judge of the election who refused Iter vote. Her declaration of intention to carry the matter to the Supreme Court of the United States, should the courts of New Jersey con- j firm the action of the election judges, elicited rounds of ap iause. At this convention a memorial was unanimously adopted, asking that in j all future amendments to the Cousti- j tution the rights of women be secured, ; and that in all future legislation for the District of Columbiaaud the Terri tories the rights of suffrage be given to women. Senator Wtl.-ou made a speech also, in which he expressed sen timents favorable to the object of the convention. From these earnest movements it will he seen that titi- question is grad ually assuming vast proportions, and the sterner sex may a- well make up their minds, first as last, to accede to the demand. B<-n ButlerrVi Position. A special reporter of the New* York Ilerutd has recently had a conversation with Ben Butler, wlm has expectations of becoming the Radical leader of the next Congre-s. The late Presidential election, said the General, was a "thrown race," the leaders of the De | mocracy having intended it to go just as it did Grant winning the Presidency and Hoffman winning New York.— The newspaper defection in New York and Washington was" part of the scheme, the closeness of the race in j Pennsylvania and Indiana determin ing the leaders to demoralize the par ty by the proposed change of front. . The new administration will be radi cal upon the reconstruction points, but conservative upon financial matters. As to the labamu claims, he thinks tiie people are willing to wait until the precedent of some English war to square accounts by a liKe I'lmucv " British commerce. CONTESTED SEATS IN* QISGR ESS . The cost of a-cat in the British Parlia ment is something beyond the purse of a man of moderate income, hut il the custom of contesting elections in creases at the present rate in this coun try, we m ty lie able to reckon scats in our national House of R *presentatives at a figure quite a- high. To judge by ? the great number of such rases, not on ly in Congress, but for different offices in all parts of the country, fraud and corruption entirely overpowered jus tice and decency at the late election.— More than twenty seats in the next Congress will be contested, and many of the claimants have not the slightest legitimate prospect of success. ■ THE TORTEGA- PRISONERS.—The Boston Advertiser, speaking of the { men now confined in the Dry Tortugas on the charge of complicity in the as sassination of President Lincoln, says : j "Nobody ever conceived that Arnold was guilty of anything beyond the plot to abduct; there are grave doubts ! whether O'Laughlin. now dead, was j implicated further than that, and the commission which tried them under | stood this fully or they would have j been sentenced lo the gallows, instead |of for life at the Tortugiis. Spangler, I whose six years' term is now* more than halfexpited, is undoabted'y an innocent man, knowing nothing of either plot; but everybody who ever examined the matter, except President Johnson, l>e i c une convinced of this long ago."— The Alexandria Gazette adds to the ; above: "We believe Dr. M add to be entirely innocent. .It is time that this outrage upon justice and humani ty should cease." A GOOD ONE.—A Galveston gentle man, lately stopping at the Nicholson House, Bastrop, was in a room recent- i ly occupied by the Agent of the Freed man's Bureau. One evening, Tom, j a freeihnau, entered the room to make 1 a fire, and after doing so sat down, crossed his legs and made himself at home, smoking and spitting in the fire place. The Galvestonian asked him what he meant by such familiarity: j Tout looked up in evident surprise, j and immediately arose, hat in hand, j and in his politest manner, said: "Beg j pardon, Ma-sa ! didn't know you was a vem man; thought you was de Freed man-s Bureau!— News, Gatcedon, Tex as. SOME of the Mtcnigaii newspapers j strongly urge the re-election Senator ] Chandler, radical, whose term expires j on the 4th of March next. Refer ring to this recommendation, the Phil adelphia Telegraph, radical, remarks: "We think Michigan can do much j better. Chandler, at the best, is a demagogue, happening to he on the right side at present. But he is a man who is nut qualified, either by intellect or habits, for the high position which be j has now tilled during a period of twelve years. In all the elements of states manship he is a mere pigmy by the j side of his colleague, Senator Howard. I Let the new Michigan Legislature look around the .State before they give Chandler another six years' lease of , the flesh-pots. They will have no J difficulty in finding a better and more deserving man to represent their State , in the National Senate." j .\KffS IX II KIEF. BELAIR, Nov 17. —Late on Sunday afternon last:, a most violent outrage was committed by a negro man 011 a most estimanle married ladv. in Har- V 1 ford county, Md. The lady was so much abused, and so seriously injured, that up to the time of writing, she had been unabletogiveany detailed account of the brutal conduct of the negro. ; This is the fourth or fifth affair of this kind which has happened in this coun ty within the past year, in which ne groes have been the actors and white women the sufferers. In this instance, the lady was returning from church, and had left the buggy of her husband but a few minutes before the outra geous assault was made upon her. On Tuesday, the 3d instant, a most horrible crime was committe near Svainsboro,' Kmanuel county, by a negro named Pierce Bolding upon the person of Miss Wiggins, a young lady of fifteen years, and the daughter of a respected citizen of that county, it appears that she was on her way io school in the village, when the negro rushed from the roadside, knocked her senseless, and accomplished his pur pose. She was found lying insensible ! by a passer-by and carried home, and on recovering related what had oc curred. The officers of the law and others started in pursuit of the scoun drel, and overhauled him near Sum merville, in the - tine county, from whence he was carried to jail, when h< confessed having committed the deed. The same night a body of armed men proceeded to the jail, took him out and hung him. Previous to his execution he stated that lie an i several other negroes, had formed a plan on that day to violate the persons of several young ladies who attended school in the vil lage, hut the others overslept them selves and he started out alone, and Miss Wiggins was the tlr-t one he met. — >S 'arannah .Yew*. F rt Wallace, Kansas, Nov. Jo.— An expedition, composed of two com panies of the fir-t cavalry and one of the thirty-eigth infantry, with artillery, left this post Tii-i J*. M., under Lieut. Col.

Sheridan, against the main body of Southern Indians, who are supposed to be camped in that vi cinity. Carpenter's command is to scout in the country near Pawnee Fork and Walnut creek. St. Louis, Nov. JO.—A Salt Lake special says that hanging of roughs at Bear River City, on the 11th, previ ously reported, created great excite ment, and this morning a mob of 200 men burned the Frontier Index office and jail.

Hill, a widow lady, residing at the northeast corner of Tenth and Pine streets, was killed to-nicht. Her son in-law, George S. Twitcheil, Jr., was arrested, charged with the act. Her body was thrown from a second-story window. The deed was committed with a heavy iron poker, and no cause is assigned for the act. Richmond, November JO.—Chief Justice Chase will arrive next Monday to preside at the fall term of the Uni ted States Circuit Court.

A heavy shock of earthquake was felt in Miliertou, Frenoe county, Cali fornia, November sth. The wall of the court-house was badly cracked, and the waters of the San Joaquin riv er (lis urbed. Slight shocks were also experienced at Austin, Nevada, No vember 17. Richmond, Va., is blessed with a superabundance of courts at present, as may be judged by the following list of those now in session: U. S. Circuit Court, U. S. District Court, Court of Appeals, Hustings Court and Circuit Court of Richmond. A Wisconsin coroner has decided, in the ease of a man run over while attempting to get on a railway train, that he came to his death by "willful and wanton exposure to unnecessary danger and peril."

They were briefly as follows: "We warn ail good and honest men against all associations which ignore ■ our Lord Jesus Christ, or omit His name in their services. We adopt dis criminate in preference to indiscrimi nate communion. We admit no one into our pulpits whom we do not know , to teach the pure word of God. We reject Chiliasm as the confessions of the Church -the Augsburg especially reject it." The entire forenoon was occupied in the discussion of the above report, which was at length unanimously > adopted.
