The Canvass in Pennsylvania.
Tbb Democrats of this Bute hare oeased to
appeal to the reason or oonBoienoe of their fel-low-ottiwna
for support. The intelligent aud
patriotlo men who have heretofore aoted with
their organization, deeply oonsolous of the
fatal blander perpetrated in the nomination of
the shilly-shally Seymour and the bold, bad,
blandering Blair, give up the contest, acknow
ledging that the Demooratio party does not
deeerye saooess, and that its triumph would
be a national misfortune. In this strait the
desperate politicians who direot its movements
are imitating the infamous polioy adopted by
Jefferson Davis when he discovered that the
triumphant march of the Union armies could
not be resisted by the arts of honorable war
fare, lie called to his counsels inoendiaries,
pirates, assassins, and scoundrels like Wirz,
who were capable of starving thousands of
Union prisoners. The Demooratio plan of the
Presidential campaign is equally discreditable,
and, in some particulars, not more humane
than the infamous taotios of the fiendish chief
tain of the Confederacy. In Pennsylvania the
Chaiiman of the Demooratio State Central
Committee is insatiable in his demands for
money, money, money I
The rioh Democrats of New York have been
badgered for contributions .as they were never
badgered before, and unmerciful assessments
have been levied upon Philadelphia contribu
tors to the Democ ratio treasury. In reply to
the remonstrances of the vlotims of these ex
tortions there is but one explanation that
the means used to carry Pennsylvania in 18t7,
by fraud, must be again employed in 18(38
and that the old coffee-pot naturalization system
must be reorganized on a gigantic soale. This
is being done at this moment not only in
Philadelphia but at all favorable points
throughout the State. Nobody will aoouse
ihe witless Wallace, who leads the Demooratio
van, of any special capacity for conducting a
political campaign successfully on honorable
principles; but as an agent in inciting and ar
ranging frauds upon the ballot-box he oannot
be excelled. He can convert no voters, but
lookiBg lovingly at his famous ooffee-pot, he
can triumphantly exclaim, "No wltoh's 'cal
dron ever exercised so potent an influ.
enoe over the affairs of mankind as this
humble utensil in my master hand!" The
Republicans must expeot frauds to the right
of them, frauds to the left of them, frauds in
every oounty, and frauds in every preolnot
where it is possible to perpetrate them. The
money wrung from reluctant contributors is
beiDg expended with a lavish hand in seouring
naturalization papers, by fair means or foul,
and in preparations to oontest the majestic
demonstration of the sentiment of the State
which honest and patriotio citizens will give
on the second Tuesday of October, by a shame"
ful display of the most infamous form of par
tisan chicanery.
In 1867 these frauds were naturally aocom
panied by the worst of crimes. They were
based on false oaths, and the criminals most
deeply implicated did not hesitate to attempt
to oonoeal their guilt by perpetrating one of
the most atrocious murders ever committed
within the boundaries of this Commonwealth.
It is surprising that any of the Courts, which
are supposed to be the conservators of justice,
can be induced, either by acts of commission
or omission, to connive at the sohemes to
fasten npon the State and nation odious and
obnoxious candidates. But we trust that
the popular indignation aroused' by
the base acts of our politioal adversaries will
render all their schemes fruitless. Good citi
zens of every shade of politios should com
bine to rebuke the unprincipled tricksters
who tamper with the very foundations of gov
ernment, and to demand that the nation shall
be ruled in the mode desired by a majority of
legal voters, and that the gravest questions
which affect the destiny of the human race
shall not be decided by crimes and frauds that
no honest man can countenance.
Tun real meaning of the Camilla massaore
is stated by a corre?pondent,writing from that
scene of murderous action, to be that the
Demooratio Rebels of two or three Georgia
counties have resolved that no Republican
meetings aft all be ueld within their boundaries 1
This resolution is in strict accordance with the
cowardly and tyrannical nature of the South
ern Democracy. Above all things they fear
the truth. Their whole partisan superstruc
ture is built on fraud, force, and
ignoranoe, and they know full well
thaU it will tumble into ruins if
it is exposed. Descending to the mean
ex; edlent of seeking the votes of the freedmen
whom they intend to disfranchise at the first
opportunity, they desire to prevent a single
word of explanation; and their aristooratio
leaders also know that as Boon as the poor
Southern white men understand how muoh
they were oppressed by the slave ollgarohy
they will beoome devoted adherents of the
Republican party. It is unnecessary to com
ment npon the cruel and tyrannical spirit dis
played in this systematic effort to prevent by
murderous means the dissemination of politi
cal intelligence. Great as is the orime, it is
but a natural offshoot of the Inherent wicked
ness of the men who desire to revive a new
' rebellion on ' glgantio soale, under the
friendly auspices of Seymour and Blair.
The Detection ofFiftnde.
Is accordance with the rule allowed by the
Supreme Court yesterday, Thi Evbhmo Taw
on a fh despatched its reporters to the office of
the Prothonotary, and we are enabled to lay
before onr readers this afternoon the first in
stalment of names of our naturalized citizens.
It is with peculiar pleasure that we make this
announcement. The Demooraoy appreciate
immediately the great value which suoh a list
would be as a preventive of fraud, and conse
quently attempted -to prevent its seouranoe.
But the law of the snbjeot is well established,
and common sense united with it, caused
Judge Sbarswood to grant the application.
We would now make a few praotioal sugges
tions as to the nse to which these names
should be put. We would suggest that the City
Executive Committee of the Republican party
should direct the various ward and preolnot
committees to secure a copy of these lists as
published, and plaoe it in each of their pre
cinct books. By this means eaoh preolnot
will be able to know who claim to be aliens In
their midst. From the evidenoe so far reoei ved,
and a number of oases exposing the manner
in which the frauds are being committed, a
sample of which were published this morning,
it will be seen that a good work has been
done already. A number of aooundrels who
here perjured themselves and attempted to
defraud the free citizens of Amerioa of their
rights, are at present reoelving their deserts
in the station-houses; and we are gratified to
be able to say that, from now until the day of
election, every one of them will be arrested)
proseouted, and punished. From the sight of
the lists already produced a great number of
those who have been naturalized have been
vouohed for by the same men. All suoh oases
will receive their riohly-merited punishment.
By proper exertions we think that, to a great
extent, this wholesale orime oan be de
tected and prevented, and we feel sure that,
from this time forward, the matter will be
thoroughly attended to.
The Supreme Court.
By the correspondence given elsewhere it will
be seen that Governor Geary has aoted
promptly in supplying the vacancy npon the
bench of the Supreme Court, oreated by the
resignation of Judge Strong. The letter of
the latter, which is now made publio, is a
fitting close to his honorable career as a jurist,
and cannot but increase the high estimation
in which he is held by the oommunity at
large. Judge Williams having received his
endorsement, in addition to the unanimous
demand of the party which supported him
last year at the polls, his appointment will
give universal satisfaotion.
The Hon. Henry W. Williams, LL. D., the
new Justice, is a native of Connecticut, and is
now in the very prime of life, being about
forty-five years of age. He reoei ved a tho
rough education at Yale College, whioh sub
sequently conferred upon him the honorary
degree of "Doctor of Laws," and having re
moved to Pittsburg, he beoame a student at
law in the office of the late Chief Justice
Lowrie. In 1S43 he was admitted to the bar,
becoming the law partner of his former tutor.
Judge Lowrie was afterwards appointed
by the Governor a Judge of the Dis
trict Court of Allegheny oounty, and in
1851 was eleoted Chief Justice of the State.
At the same time his former pupil was
elected to fill the position formerly ocoupied
by him. In 1861 Judge Williams was re
elected an Associate Law Judge of the District
Court of Allegheny oounty, without any orga
nized opposition. Previous to going upon the
benoh he achieved an exoellent reputation as a
practitioner; and sinoe his elevation to a judi
cial position he has more than maintained it.
As a lawyer he is methodioal and accurate; as
a judge fearless and upright, possessing the
happy faoulty of discerning at once the
justice of a oause, notwithstanding the
difficulties and quibbles by whioh it
may be obscured. Although his dispo
sition is modest and retiring, he is ex
tremely, sooiable in his relations, with
the members of the bar, and enjoys a rare
popularity, where he is known, with people of
all classes and of all politioal professions. At the
Republican State Convention, held in Wil
liamBport in June of last year, he reoeived the
nomination of the party for the position
formerly held by Chief Justice Woodward,
and it was only through the instrumentality
of the unblushing frauds perpetrated by the
Demooraoy in Luzerne oounty that he was
defeated by a small majority. Ills present
term will expire with December, 1869, but at
the eleotion of next year we doubt not that he
will be triumphantly eleoted by the people of
the State to serve npon the Supreme benoh for
the full period of fifteen years.
The Troubles of Warrant Holders.
Tbb ' present arrangement for paying the
warrants on the City Treasury is an exoellent
example of how not to do it. On the 18th of
January, 1868, an ordinance of Connoils to
enforoe the prompt payment of oity warrants
was approved; and with the most benevolent
intentions in the world towards the creditors
of the city, our law-makers succeeded in tying
the hands of the Treasurer so that he is now
unable to cash warrants when they are pre
sented, although he may have the funds on
hand. The ordinanoe in question provides
that the warrants shall be paid in the order of
their presentation, and "in event of the in
ability of the City Treasurer to pay the same
on their first presentation, he shall oause suoh
unpaid warrants to be stamped with the date of
presentation and numbers; and he shall
then announce to the holders the earliest pos
sible time within which he shall be able to
pay the same, and thereafter no new or un
stamped warrants shall be cashed nntil all
thoBe stamped have been first paid, and those
stamped ghall be entitled to be first paid in
the order of their numbers." If the Treas
nrer has sufficient money on hand to pay all
the warrants, he is authorized to cash them
whenever presented, without regard to their
numbers; but praotloally this provision of the
law is inoperative, as there never is enough
money in the treasury to cover all the war
rants. It was the eastern with Mr. Bamm,
and all former Treasurers, to put aside a cer
tain sum to cash the warrants of school
teachers and others who are dependent on
their salaries for support, but Mr. Piersol is
not allowed to exerolse this discre
tion, and ho is further bound by
the ordinance in question, so that he oannot
cash warrants even when he has the money
unless they are presented to him teriatim,
aeoording to their numbers. Thus, there may
be sufficient funds to pay say one thousand
warrants. The holders of a portion of them
have them stamped, and then, for some reason
or other, do not present them at the proper
time, as is often the case, and the oonsequenoe
is that the unfortunate holder of warrant one
thousand and one Is obliged to wait for his
money, although the Treasurer.may have the
money by him at the time waiting for a
claimant. Unless the Treasurer, too, has the
full amount necessary to cover warrant num
ber one thousand and one he oannot pay It or
any portion of it.
A supplement to the above-mentioned ordi
nance, which was approved Feb. 7, 18G8, in
terprets the section of the said ordinanoe
whioh relates to the stamping of warrants to
refer only to the warrants issued on and after
the 1st day of January, 1868.
The effect of this interpretation is that the
warrants issued before the 1st ot January,
1868, oannot be stamped or paid at all unless
there is a surplus in the treasury over and
above what is required for the payment of all
the stamped warrants, and as suoh a condition
of finanoial prosperity is not likely to ooour
very soon, the unfortunate holders of last
year's warrants will have to whistle lor their
money.
The present arrangement has been a souroe
of constant annoyance and trouble to the City
Treasurer as well as the warrant,holders, and
it has entirely failed to oorreot the difficulty at
which it was aimed. Connoils will meet this
afternoon, and we hope that they will take up
this matter at once, and do something practi
cable in the way of relieving the creditors of
the city from the disabilities under which
they now labor. There is a large amount of
money now in the treasury which cannot be
used for the payment of any but stamped war
rants, while there are many teaohers and
others who are either obliged to wait for their
money, or else sell their warrants at a heavy
discount. Either the ordinance in question
ought to be repealed altogether, and the Trea
surer allowed to pay the warrants In the order
of presentation, as was formerly the custom,
or a limit ought to be set to the time in whioh
stamped warrant holders are entitled to the
benefits of the existing arrangement.
Welcome to the Boys in Blue.
Philadelphia extends a hearty welcome to the
gallant soldiers and sailors who become her
guests to-day. The men who saved the Union
were no mere machines, who knew nothing,
thought of nothing, or oared for nothing but
the word of command given by their superior
officers: they went down to the battle-field with
an intelligent understanding of what they
were fighting for, and they made
better soldiers because they thought
for themselves and oomprehended perfeotly
the meaning of the great oonfliot in which
they were engaged. The Boys in Blue are as
true to the cause of the Union to-day as they
were when treason inaugurated the reign of
bloodshed and aroused the loyal men of the
nation to arms in the spring of 1881. The
issues of to-day are not less preg
nant with meaning, and not less im
portant in their bearing on the
future welfare of the Republic, than those whioh
we were called npon to meet when the felon
hands of Jeff. Davis and his co-conspirators
were raised against the life of the nation. The
soldiers and sailors are on the right side now,
as they were then, and having conquered
treason on the battle-field, their voioes, votes,
and influenoe will be given to crushing it finally
by an overwhelmning defeat at the ballot-box
next November. The demonstration whioh
begins to-day will be one of the moat imposing
that has taken plaoe in this city s'nee the
generalship of Grant reduced the Rebels to
submission, and it oannot but have an im
mense influence all over the oountry in
strengthening the hands of the Republican
leaders in their efforts to make the suooessful
General of the Union armies the next Chief
Magistrate of an undivided and reoonstruoted
Union. We extend to the Boys in Blue, there
fore, a hearty weloome, and we know that our
greeting will be seoonded by the loyal citizens
of loyal Philadelphia.
Bsymoub's Responsibility. Judge Kelley,
In the course of his reoent speeon at Spring;
Garden Hall, In this oily, said: "On the 31st ol
January, 1801. a Democratic Slate Convention
assembled in Tweddle Hall, al Albany, to con
sider the Impending perils of toe Union, No
man In ttat Convention was more prominent
than you, Mr. Seymour; no man addressed U
with more potential voloe. Did yon demaud

and warn the Rebels that they wers Involving
the country In war and themselves la ruluT
Did you denounoe the Imbecility of Buchanan'
the lieasonable craft of Blaok, the bloody reck
lessness of the Southern leaders? Oh, no I your
denunciations were not for these, your politioal
friends; they were hurled at the llberty-lovlng
and law-abiding people of the North. You de
nounced the resistance of the North to the
unconstitutional, unholy, and Insatiable de
mands of the slavery exlenslonlsts as 'sense
less, unreasoning fanaticism;' and exonerating
the Rebels from all blame, you added the
assurance of yonr ooovlotlon that we oould not
conquer tbem, and advised your friends that to
attempt It would be as revolutionary as seces

'Do not, my lellow-citizens, history and his
