"This renders it unnecessary thatjl should con sider the other question which has been utafie, as to the effect of Ihe s|>ecia! agreement to pay in lawful silver money of tho United .States. 1 am in favor of entering judgment (or tho plaintiff, but as a majority of the court are of a different opinion, judgment for the defendant." — Copied /,o, the Philadelphia Ayr / pd </ #Wrtmry, Isfil, where the opinion is published in full. It may alto ho found in the Lryal fnhlliytncer of March IS, 1st!I, page 92- In the same copy of the Aye is a carctully pre narcd eulogy of the judge and this opinion, i which i.- the following: "Judge StiAii.swoon reason - upon and decides the case as if no were ..nine loity spirit sitting far ahovo and cut of the contentions and strifes of the world." Will not the holders of greenbacks and (iovorn uicnt bonds consider the judge a# quite too eleva ted audctherial for such earthly honors as a seat on the Supreme IScnch ? iiii t i i THE COJMTXTC TION. " Whenever you hear a man prating alstut the Constitution, spot him; he is a Traitor.'''' So spake Androw Johnson some five years ago. No doubt this was putting it a little strong. And yet underlying this exagera ted form of expression, there was a great truth. Men talked al.-out the Constitution who had never read it, and sought to make the cry of the Constitution an aid to rebel lion. Judges sought to make the letter of the Constitution kill the spirit of it; and that government which by the Constitution was intended to lie perpetual, was to die in its infancy. It was to be powerless to pro tect itself from destruction. For tLo Constitution every man ought to bear the greatest veneration. It is the sol emn league and covenant of the American people, and as such the great fundamental law of the land. It was made not by the Stales, but by the People. It required not the affirmance and could not be negatived by the State governments. When adopted it was of complete obligation, and bound the .State sovereignties. These principles were established and recognized by the courts fifty years ago. According to the Constitution itself, it was ordained '"in order to form a more per fect Union, establish justice, insure domes tie tranquility, promote the general welfare, and seeure the blessings of liberty to our selves and posterity," yet instead of a per fect union, it was to-justify disunion; in stead of establishing justice, it was to per petuate for all time, and extend into all the States and territories, the horrible injustice of slavery; instead of insuring domestic tranquility and promoting the general wel fare, it was to be powerless to do either, if any set of scoundrels who had got posses sion of a State government chose to pre vent it. And yet the Constitution is not the Gov crniffcut. It is a law—a rule of action—for the Government, and like all laws, in con struing it, its spirit and meaning are to be locked at, and he who "sticks in the letter sticks in the bark." No doubt the Govern ment was spoken into being by the Consti tution, but once m existence, if it teas a Gooeramcut ot all , it stood upon a level with the other Governments of tho earth, clothed with all the powers of independent sovereignty; and among these was the pow er to put down with a strong baud all forces and armies found warring against its life. The great law of self-preservation, implant ed in the human heart by the Almighty long before he inscribed the ten command ments on the tables of stone, applies aiiko to nations and to individuals. The right and power to draft, and suspend the writ of habeas corpus, and make paper money, were all necessary incidents to the right of self protection. Without tliuui the Consti tution aud Union would have perished. And in the judicial canvass now bofore the people of Pennsylvania comes up again this same question. The opposition have nominated a candidate who regards not the spirit-of the Constitution—the spirit which was to give us a GOVERNMENT and a UNION for all time; a candidate who stick- in the letter, and would faiu have made that h tt> e serve tho cause of Disunion and Secession, and Union men aro called upon to fight at tho ballot tbc same foe whom our armies lately fought in the field. Republicans, are you ready for tho oon test? Go up to the battle and quit your selves like men. The oyes of the friends of freedom and liberty and Republicanism throughout the world are upon you. Let no base appeals to your prejudices against an ignorant and degraded race—let no cry of "nigger suffrage" and "nigger equality" deceive you. Tbero is no sucli issue before you in this canvass. When that issue ar rives it will be time enough to meet it. You are now to decide whether a loyal, pa triotic Judge, who administers the law and the Constitution in the spirit of our fathers is to sit upon the Supreme Bench, or whothcr you -will place there a man who has all his liffe long been a follower of tho traitor Calhoun; a Judge who traveled out of the record before him in the caso of Boric vs. Trott to decide that the Government had no right to issue papor money I'o pay the soldiers and carry on tho war. Let the loyal people of Pennsylvania place Judge Williams by the side of Judge Heed and Judge Agncw, and then we can rest secure of the future so far as the Judiciary is con cerned. And in doing this we will lot tho world know where wo still stand in the Presidential contest next year that we wis. not have Vallamligham, or Brockcnridge.or Jeff. Davis, or Andy Johnson for out next President, but some such Patriot as Kdwiu "M. Stanton, or Philip Sheridan, or Ulysses 8. Grant Republicans, Union man, Patriots and soldiers, let no side issues deceive you. Tho opposition are fruitful in lies and decep tions. They are trying to deceive some by saying that temperance is in issue, and that if you vote the Republican ticket you will vote for prohibition. And in Philadelphia they are urging that the Sunday law is in issue, and that the Democracy (falsely sol called,) will repeal this law if elected. Keep your eye on the main issue, the issue of Patriotism against Treason ; the Union against Secession; the Constitution agaiDSt Copperhoadism; and let us settle this issue once again, and for the last time. OUR LEGISLATIVE NOMINEES. Nothing ought to be more grateful to a free, self-governing people, than the oppor tunity to reward merit and honesty in a public servant. It is as much the duty of the public to commend faithfulness and in tegrity as it is to condemn and hurl from office those incumbents, who have been selfish, mercenary and dishonest. At a time when alleged corruption and dishon esty, under the influence of a great Ilail Road Monopoly, had rendered the rcputa tion of the Pennsylvania Legislature a shame and disgrace, Messrs. Richards aud Wellcr proved themselves incorruptably honest, and consistent Free Railroad men— in favor of "a fair and honest general rail road law. And what is of more importance to the people of this section they voted for the repeal of the iniquitous law which took away the charter of the Connelsvillo road. And in all things they studied the interests of their constituents, and served them faith fully. This has been observed and talked of by the people, and the vote will attest that they are appreciated as honest and faithful representatives. We are tpld that at the Copperhead meeting Mr. Schell talked in favor of a Free Railroad Y'et there was no resolution passed by that meeting in favor of such legislation or in any way cen suring the control of legislation by Railroad monopoly. There is nothing in the record of this gentleman in the past to indicate that he. icoidd he more snceessfid than other men in resisting the blandishments of the Peun syleania Central Road, At all events it is not well to give up a certainty for an uncer tainty. It is better to trust those that have been tried and proved faithful. ON our first page this week will be found Judge Sharswood's opinion, in which lie pronounced the Legal Tender Act unconsti tutional. The Gazette published it on the 50th ult. We call the special attention of our readers, aud those of the Gazette as well, to the last fifteen lines in which he specifical ly declares the act, in his opiuion, uneon-ti tutional, in the following terms : "On the whole, then, I am of opinion that the provision of the act of Congress of Feb ruary 25, declaring the notes issued in pursuance of that act to be lawful money and a legal tender is unconstitutional. "This renders it unnecessary that i should consider the other question, which has been made as to the effect of the special agreement to pay in lawful silver money of the United States. lam in favor of entering judgment for the plaintiff, hut as a majority of the court are of a different opinion, judgment for tlie defendant." Will the Gazette any longer have the hardihood to deny what it ha- itself publish ed, and what every honest man knows to be true, as we published it several weeks ago? Let every one now read for himself and be convinced. TIIE Copperheads of Philadelphia have been over to Washington to see the Presi dent and obtain his consent aud aid in filling the Navy-yard, Custom-house and Mint with employees, preparatory to the election in October. By thus crowding these pub lic departments with Copperhead voters, whose expenses are to be paid by the Gov ernment, they hope to save their political friends and at least make an appbarancc of re-action in the election returns. Several legislative districts in Philadelphia were carried by the same means last year. It is thus the immaculate copperheads commit frauds at the public expense and then blame the Republican party for loading the country with debt. Consistency, thou art indeed a jewel! WE have an immense national debt to pay, a large portion of which might be rais ed by duties on foreign imports, while pro tecting and encouraging our home industry, but the whole Copperhead party is dili gently working to bring about free-trade, to as to bring the pauper labor of Europe in direct competition with our already heavily taxed manufactures, thereby breaking them down, when the whole burden of the nation al taxation will have to be borne by the agricultural community. Farmers, if you wish your taxes doubled vote tbc Coppcr liead-Free-tradc ticket, and you will got taxed to your heart's content. If-you want your taxes lightened, vote tho Union protec tion ticket, by which foreign imports and manufactures will be made to bear the chief burden of taxation.- THE Copperheads oxpcct to carry tbeir members of the Legislature by a cry of rail road. But they forgot to indorse the Free Kailroad Law in their resolutions of court week, or to rledge their candidates to any thing of the kind. On the contrary they nominated at least one man in the interest o! the Penn'a. Central Railroad monopoly. Is that the way to get a free railroad iaw passed? THE Cops are jubilant over the nomina tion of Wm. P. Schell as a railroad candi date. Does he intend to build the railroad I with oil stocks? If so. we have no doubt he j can be accommodated to quite a large j amount of that kind of paper, ill of which j i will be quite familiar to him. I'IIE Copperhead proas is continually pointing to the national debt and complain ing of taxation, but Andy Johnson and bis Copperhead administration go on buying more territory with as much rum chalance as if we had no debt. Icebergs from Rus sia, slave plantations from Spain—anything that appears in the market they arc ready to buy; but tho people have the piper to pay. Lot them remember that Copperhead sympathy nurtured the rebellion and rolled up our immense debt, and that a Copper head administration is increasing our im mense burden by buying iminunse territo ries that are of no more use to us than a fifth wheel to a wagon. TIIE Copperheads, who a few years ago cried out vociferously agaiust greenbacks and national currency arc now tho eager nd vocatcs of an increase of tho same to the extent of two thousand millions. Their ob ject is the same in both cases. They wished to damage the public credit in tho first place by crying down the currency; failing in this they now wish such an over-issue of currency as will depreciate the currency un til the government is bankrupted. Val iandigham and PendletOn arc at the bead of the movement. SOME of the Copperhead journals are even crowing over the territorial election in Montana. A triumph of all the out lawed rebels, cut-throats, horse-thieves, robbers and murderers driven away from civiliza tion. Tho old minister who was charged with having asserted in the pulpit that all democrats were horse-thieves, denied that he had said so, but acknowledged that he did say, and could prove it, that all horse thieves were democrats. Montana has a majority of this class and it goes Copper head ! A FEW WEEKS MORE and clcctiou day will be with us, and as the time approaches more animation will be thrown into the campaign by the contesting parties. Re publicans have a great responsibility rest ing upon them. They must sec to it that every district is canvassed, and that not a voter will be absent from the polls. Thuro is nothing to fear if a full Rupublieau vote can be brought out, and it behooves ail members ot the party to bestir themselves to that end. THE Copperheads are greatly exercised about the Poor House delinquencies, but hojie to propitiate the public by promises of future honesty. A little practice of hones ty and common sense in the past would be worth a great deal more just now than any possible promises for the future. The surest way to make sure of future honesty is to put at least one good Republican in board of directors. Try it, and sec if wo will have another deficit of SIO,OOO. THE man who votes for Judge Shars wood takes the most direct method to make every greenback and government bond in the country worthless. Whoever wants the country bankrupted, and is ready to throw away every dollar of paper money or lb F. bouds in his possession should by all means vote for Sharswood. A NEW postal treaty betweeu our own and the Prussian Government has just been entered into by which a reduction of two thirds will be made from the present rates of postage on all mail matters going direct to Prussia. The time when the treaty will go into operation has not yet been made known. THE Pittsburgh fast says that the ques tion to he settled at the next election is whether "white men or negroes are to rule in this good old Commonwealth." We tho't in aii democracies that the majority ruled. We were not aware that there is a majori ty of Negroes in Pennsylvania. Is it so? THE Republican State Central Committee offer an elegant flag as a prize to the county making the best return for Hon. Henry W. Williams, compared with the vote of last year for Gen. Geary. What say you, Re publicans of Bedford county, shall we take the flag? THE Cops talk of the reaction of 1 67 ; on the strength of the elections up to this date this Pall. If thev will examine closely | they will find that up to this time they have sustained a loss in their Congressional dele gation of ONE. "Great fuss and little wool." IT is said that the Cops are trying to make Andy Johnson believe that they are in favor of his nomination for President in 1868, for the purpose of getting money out of him to carry the elections iu Pennsylva nia and Ohio. IT is quite probable that Andy Johnson will "swing 'round the circle" this fall to gather up the Constitutions and flags which he distributed among the people on a former occasion. He will need them all when Congress assembles. IT is icported from Copperhead head quarters that the Gazette is really anxious to know whether wc arc in favor of negro suffrage. Couldn't the editor come round quietly and hear our views without so much bluster? THE Cops have cooled down suddenly on the election returns. They have succeeded in electing Haight Governor of California, where the Republicans were divided. And hero the matter ends! A very small "mice" after all. THE Cops accuse Hon. Henry W. Wil liams of being a rcpudiator. This should be a virtue with thorn as they are now in favor of the repudiation of tho National debt, and the apologists of Jeff. Davis, the greatest living repudiator. THE Rebels of the first Congressional Dis trict of Georgia have succeeded in getting a suitable candidate for Congress in the per son of a very black negro. It will not be long until the Cops will try the same game in Pennsylvania. JUDGE SHARSWOOD was a Nullifier in !*•*-> an 'l properly enough a Copperhead in 1861-2, and throughout the war. "Just as the twig is bent the tree's inclined." ! TIIE Cops declare tho oountry is to bo ! ruined because a few negroes arc to have I political rights. Please toll us how' ANDY JOHNSON'S Amnesty Proclama tion is said to have only reached one case on file in the Attorney General's office for pardon. Hinckley must have over shot the mark —he shoots high. THE question to be settled on tho -th of October is not whether Judge Sharswood or Judge Wiiiiams is the better man, hut whether Congress or Andy Johnson is to be sustained? Let the country uuswer. WE have a Copperhead paper before us that contains art article of half a column, defending that organisation against the chargo of being a pro-slavery organization. This is the "last way of the hammer." BECAUSE TOM. Williams, of Pittsburgh, was in favoi of the repudiation of the Alle gheny pounty bonds, tho Cops contend that lion. Henry W. Williams was also. Huther queer logic! ARE YOU ASSESSED? That is the ques tion. If you arc not, go ami attend to it at . once. Remember it must be done on or before the 2Sth of September. UNDER the administration of Gov. John W. Geary, tho State debt has been decreas ed $1,794,644.50 within the last year. So much for Republican rule. THE Gazette thinks that all tho issues in volved in the campaign are naught com pared with the question whether wc arc in tiivor of Negro suffrage or not. 1 HE Copperheads are in favor of tho re pudiation of the national debt and the as sumption of the rebel debt. Tho Cops are consistent! IT appears that the Cops have " heard the news from Maine," ami they are not half as favorable as they at first expected. COPPERHEAD shouts over election gains, like their shouts over rebel victories, scud up the price of gold. TIIE STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE The Republican State Central Committee met at Pittsburgh on Thursday last. The proceedings were brief uud harmonious. Advices were received from all portions of the State showing that our friends arc ac tively organizing to got out a full vote, and that there is no doubt of the triumphant success of Judge Williams and the election of a decided majority in both branehosof the State Legislature. The committee unanimously adopted Jthe following resolutions, offered by Hon. Edward McPherson. Resolved That tho grateful thanks of the people of this Slate and nation are due to the lion. Edwin 31. Stautou, lor his fidelity to liberty, and for the zeal, patriotism firm ness and ability with which he over dis charged the important and olierou- duties of Secretary of War, and that wo will cor dially welcome, flour the action of the Sen ate, his restoration to that high post of re sponsibility and honor. it<l. That Maj. Geu. Phiiip 11. Fheridan, ami Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Sickles have endeared themselves to the hearts of all loyal men by their distinguished gailantry and military services in the reueut war, and especially to the people of this Common wealth by their heroism and success in pro tecting and dettuding us Irom rebel invasion. Resolved. That the arbitrary and vindic tive removal, by the president, of these il lustrious public servants in this critical junc ture of our national affairs, and at the dicta tion of haflh-d conspirators, evinces in our judgment a fixed purpose to mtilily wise and just measures adopted for the restoration of the Union, and to defy the will of the people constitutionally expressed, is an insult to the loyal sentiment of the enure nation and an offense de.-erving exemplary puuishuicnt. Resolved* That Gen. L. S. Grant, by his firm and patriotic protest against the remo val and attempted humiliation ol his gallant co laborers; in manifest respect lor public sentiment, and I r the laws of the land, has our cordial and hearty thanks,, and by the highest civic virtues, he has added luster to the matchless greatness of his military lame. ARRAIGNMENT OF ANDREW JOHNSON. —Major-Gen. Logan delivered a long aud vigorous speech at Hamilton, Ohio, on Wednesday the lith in which he arraigned the Democracy for their crimes and infamy, and said of Andrew Johnson: Tell me to day if you had Jeff. D.tvi- in ! the Presidential chair, or Mr. Robert E. I Lee, C'-uld they have done more for tho : Rebels in tin- land than Andrew Johnson has since he has been President? If they could, I would like to know in what way they could have done it. If Jeff Davis had been President, what would he have done? He would have returned all the property to the Rebels that they had lost. Andrew Johnson has done that. If Jeff, Davis had been President he would have pardoned ail the Rebels that asked bint for pardon. An drew Johnson has done that and more too. If Jeff. Davis had been President he wouid have denounced this Congress, and called them a set of traitors. Andrew Johnson has done that. II Jtvff. Davis had been President he would have appointed Rebel Governors down South to control those States. Andrew Johnson did the saute thing. If Jeff. Davis had been President he would have vetoed thePreedmen's Bureau bill. Audrcw Johnson did that. He would have vetoed the Civil Rights bill. Andrew Johnson did that. He would have vetoed the first Reconstruction act of Congress, and all the other acts, which Andrew Johnson has done. General Roller's Opinion of the Amnes ty Proclamation. General Buler holds the opinion that the President has no power to issue a General Proclamation of Amnesty unless authorized by act ot Congress to do so, and that the proclamation recently issued is not worth tho paper it is printed on, and is, moreover, an act of usurpation. The difference between amnesty and par don is very broad, The President possesses power, under the Constitution, to grant re prieves and pardons for offence against tho United States, except in cases ot impeach ment, but this power is limited to granting special pardons in individual cases, and does not confer upon 1 iin the authority to grant amnesty to whole communities, as he ha- been doing by his late proclamation. When the first Amnesty Proclamation was issued by President Lincoln, it was done by authority of Congress, and that power was subsequently withdrawn by the repeal of the laws. Therefore Mr. Johnson's last proclamation is without authority or color of law. and when Congress meets he will probably be called to account for it. The principle'laid down above, that atn nesty must be preceded by legislative an thority, is well established in England and after tho rebellions ot 1715 and 1745 and the Irish rebellions, when grace and amnesty were proclaimed for offences against the State, they were invariably issued under au thority previously granted by parliament. - This is the common law of England, and the same holds good here, and a precedent was established in (ho first Amnesty Proc lamation issued by Mr. Lincolu, The Mot a I of the Election*. Tho New York Times avs: Although neither California nor Main has pronounced a verdict of much political significance, u were unwise to disregard the lesson., which both read to the Republican Party. There . is not in either any real evidence of reac tion in public sentiment; but tho de/i.at of the pat ty ticket in one ease, and the reduced majority -with which it triumphs in the other, are circumstances which those who would exclude the Democrats from power may wisely heed. The dangers which threaten the Repub lican cause are the products of great strength and the overweening confidence which it has engendered. There is a dis position in sections of the party to he intol erant in respect of the opinions aud meas ures which shall bo sustained by its mem bers. lu some instances the minority have insisted upon the adoption of their views by tho majority, literally claiming the right to dictate the policy and to enlarge the plat form of the party without reference to the judgment or convictions of other-. A com paratively small number have more than once undertaken to regulate tho standard for the whole, and to read out of the party all who refused to pronounce their ahtbho letli. Organization has thus been managed in the interest of individuals rather than in conformity with tho recorded purposes of the aggregate of its members. California has told us with what result unscrupulous combination and intrigue are followed when they obtain control of the party machinery. We have been usefully reminded that, though knavery and pre sumption win in tin: making of nomina tions, the people will resent tho fraud and assert their supremacy in their own way. The managers of nominations may frame a ticket to suit their own ends, but they must not rely on the rank and file for its ratifica tion. To secure their hearty and united power, the candidates put forward must command their confidence. In Maine tho lesson, though different, is not loss clear or emphatic. The Democrat ic vote shows gain und the Republican a falling off, not as a consequence of revolt within the Republican party against it national policy, hut confessedly and leiy because of an unpopular local issues thrust upon the party by a vigorous anckdeterti!iti ed Prohibition is not a political issue, aud it is not one which the Republican party as such can carry'without an obvi risjc of defeat. The fact that tin Repub licans of Maine, have achieved victory in spite of the disadvantage at which they were placed by one portion of their body, is, perhaps, the strongest tribute to their ' strength that could be afforded, It is at any rate proof that the cry of reaction which Maine is represented as having echo ed, is at variance with the admitted cliarac trr of the contest. lgnoruace of the English Lower Classes. A lamentable want of' education is one of the great misfortunes of the lower classes in Great Britain. A report recently presented to Parliament, brings down to 1-65, the numbers of men and women in that country, who, on marrying, have to make their mark on the marriage register instead of' signing their names. More than a third of the Welshmen who married in that year had to make their mark; very nearly a third of the men of Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Norfolk were put to the same shift; more titan a thiiu of tho men of Suffolk, thirty five per cent, of tit men of Bedfordshire, thirty eight per een', of the men of .Stafford shire, and forty per cent, of the aien of Monmouthshire.' In Lancashire OL - MAN iu every four who married i,ad to make bis mark. Still, the number of the ignorant constantly lessens, lnD-ib, D'j. per cent, of the men who uiairied in England, and 50.4 per cent, ol the women, were able to write their names on the marriage register; Je'-.j, 70.5 per cent, of the men, and 58.8 per cent of the women; in 1805, 77.5 per cout. of the men, and CB. s per cent, of the women— more than threefourths of the men, and more than twothirds of the women. In these twenty years the women hav- bee im proving foster than the men. Foremost amongst lite iiitcrate districts, so far as concerns women, startU- 8 ulh Wales, with more than half its women una hie to sign their names; and in North War Montu juthshire, .Staffordshire and Lanca shire the number exceed-forty six to the one hundred. In Bedfordshire, where the children have beeu accustomed to v. rk early at straw-plaiting, two women ;a '..cry five who married iu I>>s had to make if. i mark. It da reuiarkai/: that in the eastern counties, and in many counties iu th- s ul, era half of England, more woiuctt sigt:: marriage register than men. Asia 18:71 o in 1865, Westmoreland has the largest portion of its men able to write, nim u every ten; and Sussex the large ; proportion ofits women, more than eight iu every ten.

THE returns made in the Galvesten Bulle tin of the ravages of the yellow fe\ er in that city, up to September 2. show a great increase over the mortality ol 1863-4, which were ex ceptional years in all of the Southwest by reason of the violence of the fever. There were 32 deaths in Galveston up to September 2,1853, and 108 to the same date in 1851, whereas there have been 660 deaths in the same period ol the current year. In 1865 the fever continued until the close of November, aud carried off 536 in all. In 1854 there were 40-1 deaths, ending November 5. In 1858, 354 died before the 14th; iti 1850, 182 to Ist. December, and in 1864, 250 to the 21st of November. As we lmve to record 660 this year up to the beginning of September only, it will be seen that the type of the disease is unusually severe. In 1853-4. the population was estimated atj6,ooo; in 1858--0, at 8,000; in 1804 it was 1,400. The population now, by it census of tho Assessor and Collestor, is 22. 500. of whom 15,000 are put down as unacoli mated. - The last repert intimates a decrease in the mortality, which it is to be hoped -nay continue. Rut it is to ho borne in mind that a change of the weather may at any moment renew the worst fatality of the season. PRIVATE letters from reliable sources in Charleston, assert that Gen.
