THE elevtion in Kentucky came
off on Monday last. Of course,
'we do not expect many Republicans
to have been elected in that benighted
Democratic region. The campaign
has been conducted with greater vig
or than usual, and it is expected a
much larger vote has been cast than
on any previous occasion, since the
election df 1865. The white Repub
lican vote at that time, was about
.this, about 33,000 negro
votes are t 6 be„tulded, which will
owell the aggregate to nearly ninety
thousand Republican voters. Suffi
cient returns have not come in to
gWe accurate tigure4 of the 'result: It
is thought the Republicans have a
gain in the State at large. It is
hoped the character and ability of
the members of the Legislature elect
will be , ,,bf a higher character than
,heretofore.

'this country. It is with great satis
faction; therefore, that they will read
of the swift retribution which has in
two instances recently overtaken
these miscreants in England. A
fortnight or so ago, a parcel was hand
ed in to a station of the Manchester
and Yorkshire Railway. The clerk,
with his customary carelessness, took
it up and threw ikviolently upon the
floor. It happened to contain a lot
of explosive matter which the shock
ignited. The result was a general
breakage of windows and some severe
cuts and bruises to the clerk-and his
coin µanions. A similar occurrence
took place the same afternoon at an
other office of the same railway. We
publish this piece of news, not - with
out apprehension that it may furnish
a hiitt to some maddened proprietor
of a trunk which has been ruined by
ruffianly treatment, to prepare a de

be insignificant, of course, on account
of the pretended risk. It Is, more
over, not unlikely that the purchaser
had information in advance of the
probable suctvas cif the application in
any particular case which he acted
upon. It is not known how exten

nor how many claimants have been

greys. It Is alleged that the act pro
viding for the Convention, was not
adopted by the Legislative vote le
gally requited ; the Republicans,
therefore, deny the constitutionality,
of the whole movement, and yet con
cluded to enter the canvass as the
shortest way of ending the scheme,—
and
vote it down. The objects pro

abolish the Town system and restore

some compromise of the State debt.
They propose to recast the judiciary
through the Constitutional Conven

to be elected, as at present, they
will commit their appointment to

If the Democrats are suceeful—as it
now looks—there will be two rival

LATER.—Since the above was writ
ten news has been received to the
4th inst. which says the returns from
North . Carolina, received by the
Executive Committee in Washing
ton, indicate the positive defeat of
the Constitutional Convention party
and the triumph of the Republicans.
Wake county, in which is the city of
Raleigh, gives a Republican gain of

burg eounty„,27,s; New Hanover, 514.
Adispatch oneilaYlitte7r, says the
indications seem more favorable tc
day for the defeat of the Convention
by a very small majority. .The Re
pnblicaus claim the• State by 5,000 to
15,000 majority, while the Conserve
tsycs still think the issue doubtful,
with the chafir in their favor.
Returns have been received from
only about one-third of the counties,
and they are not official.
FFLIX B. Bitunop, of Pitts
burgh, Allegheny county, Pa., ha s
been appointed Commissioner of In
dian Affairs by President Grant. He
supersedes Col. Parker, an Indian,
who was one of (men. Grant's Staffof-.
fleets. This appointment is . a
judici
ells one. Mr. Brnnot obtained an
enviable reputation, during the late
rebellion, in the Sanitary Cowin ission
Depaitinent of the Army. Always
prominent in benevolent works, the
war no sooner closed than he became
a member of a voluntary Ward of
citizens who, at their own expense,
undertook to correct the abuses of the
-Indian Department, and to secure to
the red Men their-civil rights and the
enjoyment of the benefits of Govern
mental protection. The reforms
wrought,hy this Society have been
almost incalculable.. They relied up
on the sincerity of Gen. Grunt's
words uttered in his itraugural ad
dress, that he "would favor any
course towards the Indians which
tends to their civilization, and ulti
mate citizenship," tinteentered upon`
their work—undaunted by privation
and misrepresentation— o f guarding
the Indians against imposition, and
inciting them to habits of industry,
morality, and religion; and their
eminent sucrtss induced Gen. Grant,
) who was personally acquainted with
every one of them), to select one of
their number for the Bead of the In
dian Department. Mr. Brunot is
now in the West, but it is understood
by iris friends that he will accept the
appointment. No better selection
could have been made.

sional and scientific ineu of Norris
town, as well as of Baltimore, wero
present at the exhumation. The tri
al of Mrs. Wharton willmanmence in
September, during the fliecond week
of that month.
The following is an e:iiract from n
recent letter written by an old friend
of Mrs. Wharton, who knew her ma
ny years ago at die army posts on the
frontiers:
"Ikm you know•
,that this Mrs.
Wharton of whom you write—the
pretended poisoner—was one of My
best army friends? I tannot tell you
how shocked I was to read the ac
counts of her prevent situation. I feel
I should be quite willing tatulear to
her iiinocence,aimply from my pre
vious knowledge of her character and
life. I first knew her before my mar
riage at Fo Gibson, where she was
an universal favorite—a perfect lady
in blood and in hreeding. I have
been to her father's house in Phila
delphia. and have known all about
her since her marriage. She was also
tit Fort Ia ney, alter I had been
married four ve years, where I
became very fon f her, as did my
husba.dcl, who would-do urything in
the world to serve her: I feel confi
dent and 'assured that their is foul
play somewhere. Her marriage was
a runaway match, but a happy one;
her husband, although not a Man to
command very lasting respect, she
was entirely devoted to. He was In
time Infantry, as was also General
Ketchum, whom I knew very welt,
mid whom we did not much admire.
As tUthe inordinate passion for dress
which Mrs. Wharton is said to have
evinced, her excessive gayety and
proclivities to imprudence, this is nil
false. When I knew her she dressed
very plainly, notwithstanding ample
means. She was very domestic, and
wrapped up in her children. Some
of Loy happiest days I• have spent in
her house; she was very inteligent,
and most charming conversationa
list; very hospitable, keeping open
house to all the officers at the post.
Hers was a sweet, sound nature, with
a kind, generous heart, and she pos
sessed, withal, a pure, earnest wo
manliness, which I : cannot believe
capable of conceiving, much less per
petrating, the horrible crimes ascrib
ed to ber."

to improve, which were taken advan

quaintantescontinued' but tet What,
extent Colburn visited Poffenberger t a
house, is, yarioesty, etated. The in
tercourse, to whatever extent it was
carried on, appears to have given rise
to some e&andal. Mrs. l i ollenbeter
gave birth to'two children,the el de st
now about eighteen and the other
ten or twelve. In the Luse of the
younger, at east, there were intima
tions tha tl tlelbuna, was the father,
but Mr. Colburteefriendsatiduce this
fact as evidence to the contrary ; Col
burn is a man of light complexion,
and has light hair, while l'Offenher
e'er was a wan of quite dark cum
plexion, and had very black hair,
corresponding precisely with the
hair and complexion of the ehildreu.
For about three years previous to
his death, nearly four years ago,
Poffenberger was ill, and during. the
yearimmedietely preceeding his
decease was confined to his room.
Those who believe that the wife is
unjustly accused, state during her
husband's illness Mrs. Polleuberger
gave him the kindest atteution, oc
casioning ceintnenelatory remarks
among the neighbors. roffenberget

ried Are. Poffenberger, and with the
two children removed to Elizabeth
town, N. J., where they still re s ide,
the place being near enough to New
York city to prevent interference
with Colburn's business In the bank.
In the reports thus far publishtsl it
has been stated that Poffenberger
made a will leaving a large portion
of his property to his wife In her own
right, and the balance to her in trust
for her children. inquiry at the
proper official (lustier demonstrated
that no will was made. About two,
years before his death Poffenberger
made a gift to his wife of about hve
hundred acres of land, valued then
at about s-IS,OOO, and that land khe
still owns. After Poffbuberger'e
death the widow received the usual
dower. The remainder of theprop
erty was placed in. the hands of
W ash i ugton ithroW a reliable eiti
ism of, Madison county, he being, ap
pointed guardian to the children by
the Court. None of the Peffeuber
ger real estate has been eon verbal into
money.
That Potfenberger's body was ex
humed after it had been buried ; that
his stomach and other internal or
gans were sent to Dr. T. U. Worm
ley, of Coluudius ; that, an analysis
was made by lir. Wormley, and that
he reported the presence of large
quantities of arsenic iii the stomach
and traces of it in the liver, are fact*
beyond dispute. Neither does any
person gainsay the assertion of the
Doctor, there was poison in the
stomach and liver. The preseuee of
arsenic in those organs, at the time
they were delivered to the chemist Is
accepted as a fact on all hands.
The marriage of a young woman
in only tolerable pexamiary circum-
Atances with a very old man passess
ing great wealth, templed with inter
course with a young wan nearer her
own age has directed suspicion
lifts. (Sebum. After Poffeu
herger's death it was whispered in
the neighborhood that she had ad
ministered to her hug:anal, iu order
to expedite his death and assume
the marriage relation with Colburn.
Fuel was added to this dreadful san
dal by the appearance of a printed
circularsetting forth in extraviwant
terms that Mrs. Potfenberger had
been untrue to tier hu.shand that
she had mistreated him, and that the
oircumstanet*dethanded an investi
gation as to the cause 'of the death.
'oho circular was signed "Swamp
Angel." There are thaie who pro
fess to be able to recognize in the
"Swamp A ngel" one Maley Thom se
son, husband of Poffenberger's rela
tive, who would have been one of
the heirs of the estate if the old man
had nut married. It was under
TIIOMPSOn'S direction that the body
was exhumed for anlyzatien, and it
is stated he secured 'a deposit in the
hank of sufficient money to pay the
expenses incurred in the analysis. It
is said that another relative of Poff
enberger, a physician,j living some
where west, also had , some instru
mentality- in the exhuauttion,hut it
is well understood that Thompson is
the man, perhaps the sole, prosecut
ing party In the ease sought to be
made against Mrs. Colburn, and as
.he is known to he a man of bad char
acter, there are those who assert that
' his objett is to levy black midi. The
1 estate has been settled up in such a
way that he can warcely expect to
secure any portion of it.
The difficult usatter is to settle the
question as to how the poison came
in the. stomach of the dead man.
several theorlesare regarded as Ws
;
Bible, as for instance, the poison was
administered secretly by sortie other
person than Mrs. (Sebum, and that
it might have been injected after
death. The latter theory does not
coincide with Dr. Wormley's report,
which express sed the opinion that the,
poison - was adthinistered before the

more t • two months, and have had
before them many scoresof Wittuaoses,
from all sections of the late Instirrec-,
tionary States—men of both high
and humble station—Presiding El
ders, Preachers, ex-Membera of the
Federal Congress and ex-MembersOf
thei Confederate Congress, ex-Gener
als of both Armies, Governors and
ex-Governors, Judges, Solicitors,
Sherlth, Revenue Officers, Officers of
t he'ArMy,Postmtisters',lSchool Teach
ers, Repentant and Non-repentant
members of Ku-Klux Klaus, and
dozens of their maimed and suffer
ing victims, black and white.
And what has this patient and
thorough investigation ctablishett—
and established beyond all future
cavil and question ? These atrocious
facts: •
1. That in all the late insurrec
tions ry States,and generally diffused,
though not found in every county, is
an oath-bound Secret Organization,
working only at night, and its mem
bers al ways In disguise, with Officers,
Signs, Signals, Pass-words, Grips,
and all the necessary paraphernalia,
with the pledged and sworn purpose
of putting down the Republican and.
putting up the Democratic Party;
known in different localities among
the initiated by different names, but
everywhere ized by the gcner
eral cognomen "Ku-Alex. '
2, That the organization came into
being a few months previous to
the lust _Presidential Election, during
which canvass it was In its most vig
orous condition, but is now through,
all the South, with more efficient
discipline and effect i ve direction than
ever!, reviving, in preparation for
the next Presidential Campaign,
when, as they told one of their vic
tims in Tennessee a few weeks since
"nod-. 7 --d Radical voting is to be
a llowed in any_ Southern State, by
black or white. "
3. That this Ku-Klux organiza
tion is the premeditated and deter
initial scheme for carrying the South
at the next election of Pri%ident, and
so, by securing the entire electoral
vote of that section, make sure the
election of the Democratic nominee.
4. That the officers and wtablisfe
ers of these "dens" (as they appro
priately call their separate bands) are
the leading and active. Democratic
politicians of the South.
G. That the scheme has the hearty
good-will of a large section of the
Democratic Party in all those States,
and the acquiescence of nearly the
entire Party.
G. That the direct and chief pur
pose of the organization, as sworn
by all the victims, as the assertion
uniformly made to Ahem by these
midnight as assins, and corroborated
by the uniVerml testimony of the
repentant anddivulging members of
the order, is this: The putting
down of the Republican and the put
ting up of the ))cinematic Party.
'lliat while - the Detnocratie and
Ku Klux witnesses on their direct
examinatiou usually deny the polit
ical purpose of the order, asserting
that Ku-Klux are a social necessity
growing out of the abolition of the
old patrol ; that they have to ride
the eountry to "keep the niggers in
their place;" that under the intiu
erre of Radical Legislation and
Methodist preaching the niggers are
liable to bevome saucy," and without
an occasional K-Klux visit would
"begin to think themselves as good
as white folks;" and that these fre
quent floggings, and an occasional
• murkier, are nesessary to maintain
such a state of morals among the
black's as will permit the vice-hating
whites 10 - live in their neighborhood;
yet, on the cross examination, these
witnsses also very generally, as
as very reluctantly, confess that the
intimidation of Republican voters is
a prominent and not to be regretted
result.
K. That to secure this purpose, the
putting down of the Republican and
the putting up of the Democratic
Party, intimidation is the grand
measure—the intimidation of Re
publiain voters, black and white,
but especially the humble anti de
fenceless, by Methodist Raids ; by
burning houses and store.-s, and the
destruction of crops ; by whippings
of such extreme cruelty . hs often to
end in Death; by most indecent and
painful maiming ; by assassivation
and murder in such cowardly man
ner :uid with such hellish devices as
may strike terror into whole WWI
- and bring down the Republic
an vote from two to three thousand
to less than a Single dozen.
9. That "School-teachers," and
"Preachers of the Methodist Church
North," seem to belle especial ab
horrence of these Democratic Assas
sins; autt hundreds of School-houses
and Methodist Churches have been
given to the -thunes ; and Christen
dom will stand aghast when it is
Made known the scores of School
teactunS and Methodist Preachers,
who, by this Democratic agency,
within these three years, have been
Whipped! Shot! Hung! and, in
some instances, it Is believed, burned
at the Stake I
W. That in nearly one-half the
States of this Utiion this work of hell
is now going on, night by night--
every month extending the range of
its bloody operations, and fearfully
multiplying the number of its vic
tims !
11. That is is sidely and immedi
ately in the service. of the Democrat
it Party a large portion of the party
South heartily approving large
numbers of the party North attempt
ing its shelter from scorn by covering
up or denying its crinsui, us if cow
ardly assassination could be palliated,
and brutal murder excused—and the
Democratic Party throughout the
land rejoicing in its promise of help.
40, either by open and acknowledged
action, or by the no l criminal and
the more cowardly participation of
extenuating and shielding the crime,
the party South and North, become
before the people and before Clod
equal shurears in the rtsponsiblliy.
Out of the mouths of more than
two hundred witnesses is every• syl
lable of this established; and more
than ten thousand of the shroudlc*4
dead, from hidden places by wayside,
in swamp and on mountain, and
from the sleepless ashes of fired homes
shout thetqhastly Amen!
A single instance of these thousand
outrages perpetrated upon an *uteri
can citizen on foreign soil, would be
thought ample cause for war; and
our entire navy would hasten to en
force the Nation's indignation. And
such abuse ns is daily meted out to
these humble Methodist Preachers, if
offered one of our Missionaries on
heathen ground, would arouse the
whole. American church until every
mind was laden with demands for
"protection."
The thanks of all citizens who love
right and hate rapine are due the
faithful inenof this Committee, who,
forgetting their own ease, have so in
dustriously devoted these hot months
to the unearthing of this giant vil
lainy..
