People of Penneylvania, notwith
standing petition after petition against
this monstrous outrage have gone into
Harrisburg signed by thousands upon
thousands of true men, the Radical ma
jority in the Senate have paid no at
tention to them. Nay, they have even
torced the issue to a speedy decision,
and would only allow the Democratic
minority to plead against the monstro•

were not decent enough to give time in
which to discuss the question, but pre
cipitated it to a conclusion, and it is
now only a matter of a few days or
weeks, probably, when it will become
the tat of the State. The House of
Representatives will undoubtedly pass
it unless there is more of the "salt of
the earth" among the Radicals in that
body than we have any reason to hope
or expect
At last, therefore, this long conceal

modern prophecies of the Democracy

Tie Lycoming Infamy.
- Lobby influence was never more'ern
phatically illustrated than in the aaton•
idling success which has attended`Mr.
Pena Heanic's efforts to overthrow
the Lycoming Judicial District, erected
through his influence last winter for
the benefit of,liis relative, Judge BENT.
LT. At that time Mr. HERDIC went to
Harrisburg with "convincing" argu
ments in favor of the erection of that
district, and succeeded in getting the
Legislature to pass his bill, and it hay.

burg with the same "convincing" ar•
guments in favor of its abolishment,
and, as before, has succeeded in ac
complishing his end. The Lycoming
Judicial District is no more, and Judge
(hams., elected by the Democracy last
fall to the Presidency of that district,
is, by the wiles and trickery of an un
educated and ignorant scoundrel, with
plenty of money, legislated Out of his
judicial position.
On Monday night last Hon. JAwre
G Aunts went to bed a President
Judge. Before 12 o'clock that night,
however, a bill was introduced into
both houses 'ex.f the Legislature, abol
ishing and was passed and
signed by the Governor. The clocks
of Harrisburg had not struck the first
, of the
..—Wee ems. hours
Ayent the, twit',"
till Jttdge °Alms was an ex-Judge,
and the infamous business fltlly con
summated. We can imagine the as
tonishment of the Judge when, on wa
king up in the morning, he found his
judicial edifice, like that of Ai.knntN,
transported to another clime.
Now, we would just like to know
how much money it cost Mr. PErs
Hearne to put this thing through, and
as there were some few Democrats who
supported his bill, what was their pro.
portionate share of the spoil ?
P. S. Since the above was put in
type we learn from the Patriot that
the indignant remonstrances of Senator
'Brea, who was out of hie seat when
the bill was passed; caused the Senate
to reconsider its work, and on Wed
ne'day it repealed the bill, and sent it
to the House for its action. Should
the House repeal it also, the Lycoming
District will stand, and Judge Onint.v.
will still be a judge. Thus the matter
rests at present.

Tbeir Duty.
The following is HO well said by the
Harrieharg Putria, that we copy it
without comment:
"Every member of the legislature,
"before entering on the duties, takes a
"solemn oath to support the Constitu
"lion of the United States and the Con
"sti tution of the State of Pennsylvania.
"The oath to support the one ions bind
ing as the obligation to defend the
"other. The State Constitution pre
"scribes who 41111 exercise the privile
"gen of an eleetu'r, vul the member of
"the legislature who votes to ratify
"this new suffrage amendment violates
"the 'Constitution which he has sworn
"to support. There is no question of
"doubtful construction to afford a
"chance of evasion. The word "white"
"is written in the fundamental law
"which the people themselves made in
"convention and rititled at the ballot
"box. To adopt the new article is not
"to amend the State Constitution, but
"to deliberately violate its provisions.
"The only way to escapeJhe solemn
"charge of perjury is to wait until the
"people shall amend the State •Constb
"tution in the manner prescribed.
c,
"There is n t a radical Wcithend in
"the legisla re who tvill Wet atittlit
"that he ha s o riiiii to vote to Amend
"the'Constilution Whit, gtate. Yet he
"does so, in effect, 'by 'voting in favor
"bf thin tmeriddient. It is a clumsy
!'evasion worthy the genius of radical.
"ism, but it is nel'ertheless perjury.
"To put the proposition in the plain.
"est terms: Here is a proposed amend
ment tothe F'cderal Consitution, that
"comes in conflict with the constitu
"tion of Pennsylvania, which every
"member of the legislature is bound by
"an oath to support. There is no legal
"or moral obligation to vote for this
"amendment, but he is bound both in
"law and morale to defend the State
"constitution. If he vote for the
"former, he violates he hatter,'and is
"guilty of the double crime of perjury
"and treason to his constituents. After
"this amendment thrill be ratified by
"the legislature, there still stands the
"State constitution, not amended but
"shamefully evaded, unmanfully vio
"laced by those whe were sent here to
"support it, and wh . o took on them
"selves a solemn obligation to do so,
"This is a very simple proposition, and
"the radical members of the House
"niny digest at their convenience.
Ohio
The Ohio Legislature, which has a
Democratic majority, by its action on
the negro suffrage Amendment, shows
the difference between Democracy and
Radicalism. It prefers to submit the
Amendment to a vote of the people,
whereas Radical Legislatures are de
termined to adopt it without consult
ing the people. Here is what the Ohio
Ltvgislature nays :
Resolved by the General Aseembly of the State
of Ohio, That all ',violative action on the part

—Ecf. Watchman.
Mr. Editor, allow me a little spaet in
your columns and I will tell you, out
aide of the political arena,what I think
about it. You mean well enough in
your partizan reflections, and I have
no t Adoubt that you are in pos
session of a kind heart. It is
well that there are some still ac
tooted by the more ennobling sensibili
ties. You will find occasionally, here
and there, pure, honest arid unseletsh
•iatures, but they are like 'angel visits.'
They are seldom found among the
business men or politicians, nor at any
time among the purse-ptpud, silly.
brained pretenders, whose only-qualifi
cations consist, in a very large degree
of self-appreciation. But there are
some with whom the tender cord does
vibrato-tin sympathy. There are those
who have friends in affliction, and the
ties of consanguinity may have some
claims upon them. A genial spirit
and a Goti•like inspiration of thought
and action may distinguish others.
They may wish you prosperity and
happiness. Their unselfish prompt
ings "say touch the inmost fountain of
the soul as, it yearns for some kind
friend or kindred sympathy. Like the
I dew drops to a drooping dower they re
invigorate the desert of a cheerless
life. But, sir, doyen expect to touch
the soul of public sensibilities is be
half of the misfortunes of any one
here in Centre county? You might as
well attempt to drive the Devil out of
Pandemonium. This question hat
been fully demonstrated,. The people
are ad insensible to any appreciatio f
the disabled in the way of aesistanoe,
politically or otherwise, as though pa
triotism had taken its everlasting
sleep and charity eradicated' frc:m the
christian virtues. That one legged
solder is not active enough, says one,
to be poet master. The lame and the
halt have not personal attractions
enough, says, another, for pecuniary
places of business. And—so we find
that merit never gets beyond personal
physical defects in this part of the
country. The r poor, miserable cripple
who is no way responsible for his mis
fortunes may be a poor miserable crip
ple still. When he seeks employment
he comes in contact vr th innumerst
hie objections. Qualifications are en-
tirely out of the question when he is
placed in competition with the more
abler bodied, and the iltdividual whose
avarice is the only 130 d he worships,
thrums him neide without so much ev
en as *twit of cheer for hie encourage
ment.
Then again, should any of: our din•
laded citizens be ambitioua for politi
cal distinction, though' they be limiest
and (-apatite, when favors of this kind'
are to be conferred, some one
who has played hostler or second fid
dler to sonic modern Demosthenes
during the delivery of a maiden speech,
has claims which must not be disre
garded, If the unfortunate individual
has e‘er beau indentified with polities,
a host of hungry cormorants discover
a multitude of transgressions. So these
self-styled patriots berated the news
abroad on their brazen tongues, and
work themselves into power. And so
it goes, until one hope atter another
has expired, and the poor,disabled and
atficted man, sick at heart from the
selfishness and ingratitude of those
around him, turns in disgust upon the
world. Such, Mr. Editor i iv the phi
latithropy which we find abroad, And
say to you, in nil sincerity,
