Tho Ilatllcal lenders In Congress hfivo
concluded thnt their only hope of sue
cess In tho Presidential election of 1872
Is by again exciting tho enmity of tho
North against tho South, and that tho
only way to do this Is to cot up a vigor
ous cry, In terms as fearful as possible,
of Southorn oulrazos. unheard of and
undreamed of In point of magnitude
and terror Carpet-baggers aro to rc
doublo their Insolence, lmpudonco and
Insult, to lnduco tho resentment of
somebody, no matter who, so mat h is
dono In tho South, and whenever snou
leather shall bo applied to tho posterior
of an Insolent meddler In other people's
business, said carpet-bagger is to bo Im
mediately dubbed a martyr and tho
wrong perpetrated upon his seatof honor
Is to bo hold up to wondering Northern
ovesns Iho'nulntesccncoof ku-klux hor
ror and outrage. Tho fceblo efforts of tho
Philadelphia Press, for n tlmo past, to
get up a sensation on tho subject, have
fallen still born, and oven tho ro echo
of tho Tribune failed to stir up North
ern sensibilities on tho subject, notwith
standing tho sad wear and tear of tho
Southorn loyal Ufa shoo leather battery.
If tho pestiferous carpet-bagger persist
ently Informed the rebel, In season and
out of season, that ho was n traitor, and
In return therefor received n rather
forcible salutation under tho noso and a
propeller In tho rear, no Northern tear
was started or ccmmlsseratlng observa
tion made. Radicalism could not stand
such unpatriotic want of sympathy,
volos aro wanted, and tho case must bo
worked ip to catch wenk-mlnded nerv
ous voters. But Prest and Tribune au
thority amount to nothing. Their fab
rications have been worked over so
often that they havo becomo stalo in
tho market Charcoal will rejuvenate
tainted meat, but charcoal can not mako
n rotten Ho believable when uttered by
tho samo polluted lips. To givo renew
ed Impetus and character to tho crusado
of falsehood and defamation, a Senate
commlttco was raised, and twenty
thousand dollars w.ero taken from tho
public treasury, to enable Its members
to purchaso witnesses to glvo tho neces
sary testimony. Theso perjured scoun
drels of courso will not havo tho hardi
hood to f.ico tho people they havo lied
about, and must bo furnished with
funds to do their loafing and meddling
In sorao other locality. If no more
than 20,000 wcro taken tho job would
bo cheaply done, but tho committee
will only report tho lying testimony to
tho Senate. In that body the wholo
caso will bo worked over, with Import
ant and soul-stlrrlng amendments and
additions, and all at tho cxpenso of tho
people. Congress will print theso Rad
ical electioneering documents In such
numbers as to supply every man wom
an and child in the Nation, and every
yankeo grocery with wrapping paper,
and all at tho cxpenso of tho United
States' Treasury I
This gross fraud is to bo committed,
and tho pcoplo again invoked to hate,
and to war if possible, merely that tho
cr to" cheat, to defraud, to opprcsT tho
people, to squander tho public treasury
and to crush tho spirit of tho pcoplo
with taxation 1 Let a bravo and sensl-
bio people guard against such infamous
oppression and wrong I
France presents a curious study,
Its peoplo aro divided Into threo prln-
clpal parlies: Imperialists, (Bonaparte)
monarchists, (Bourbon) ana iiepuDit
cans. Tho former is no doubt strongest
and is united. Tho monarchists aro dl
vlded between the truo line of Bourbons
and tho Orleans branch. Tho Republl
cans aro composed of men who would
establish a solid Republic and tho law
less desperadoes who stylo themselves
Red Republicans. Tho latter will not
submit to any form of government un
less it Is powerful enough to compel
submission. They aro destructlonlsts
rather than Republicans. But no mat
ter which of tho threo principal parties
havo possession of tho government,
they aro suro to bo in n minority, be-
causo tho other two will combine
against them. Tho weakness of Napo
leon consisted in tho fact that as soon
as ho led tho army against tho common
enemy, tho other two parties combined
to overthrow tho government. Let ei
ther of tho other two parties succeed to
power, if they get into war, tho samo
result will follow. Tho Internal discord
Is thcreforo moro fatal to Franco than
Its declared enemy. It was supposed
that tho crushing defeat sustained by
tho French at tho hands of tho Prus
elans would teach them wisdom, but
they fecem to bo as factious, unreasona
ble and violent as over. Ono of their
most distinguished men has declared
that their troubles would only begin
when tho Prussians left, and tho indi
cations aro that tho remark was truth
ful. At present an intcstlno war seems
Inevitable. Either that or all tho
threats and violence aro mere bluster,
Hon. Ciiahles j. Riddle succeeds
Hon. AVm. II. Welsh In the editorship
of tho Philadelphia Age. In Congress
Col. Diddle exhibited much ability
and under his management the Age
will no doubt contlnuo to bo a very able
Democratic organ. Col. B. commanded
tho first regiment of tho celebrated
Bucktalls during their first period of
service, and until his election to Con
gress. Wo never could seo why a dally news
per could not bo conducted with as
much energy and bo made to exhibit
as much power in Philadelphia as In
Now York, yet that peculiar ability
which renders dally papers Interesting
to overybody and of largo circulation
and influence, has always been wanting
In tho Piiladelphla press, except so far
as the old Peniuylvanlan formed an ex
ception. Of its kind, the Ledger Is su
perior to any paper In Now York, and
us a keen, shrewd, spicy news Journal
tho Day has no rival In cither city.
Our remarks apply moro particularly
to tho partlznn political papers, and aro
equally applicablo to both parties. Wo

Conscrtntlnii.
Overlooking for tho present thot'oin-
blnntlnn of wit and platltltdo In which
tho Reading ati:tttc Indulges In Its reply
to our nrtlclo on tho "dlseaso or conser
vatism," wo proceed nt onco to the sub
slanco of Us objection. Without dlspo
sltlon to equivocate about tho technical
meaning or mo worn, lnsietui "
stcr's Indefinite definition ! "tho prac
tice of preserving what Is established i'
wo dcflno tho conservative of politics
las universally understood) ono who
proposes to put up with tho Ills wo havo
rather than attempt roforms nnd tho
destruction of evil by tho adoption of
new measures. Or, In othor words, ono
who desires to contlnuo old forms, oven
though great ovll Is attendant upon
them, rather than chango tho form In
order to suppress tho ovll.
A9 nn oxamplo In point s tho Oatelte
Is as much onnoscd to Legislative cor
runllon as wo are. Wo favor a Consti
tutional Convention, which is tho only
means of destroying tho ovll tho Gto
tctte opposes such Convention bociiuso
It Is an Innovation upon "what Is established."
Wo want to rako from tho Legislature
tho nowcr to pass what nro called prl
vnto bills and compel nil legislation to
bo general. Tho only way to effect this
Is by an amendment of thoConstltutlon.
Tho conservative courso la to oppose
Constitutional amendmentnnd thereby
sustain tho basis of Legislative corrur
tlon.
Wo would havo only general laws to
control Railroad nnd all other chartered
companies, wo would restrict their rights
and define their duties by Constitutional
provision, and givo tho Courts full
power to enforce theso, but this Is not
conservative.
Wo want nnd it Is tho great want of
tho times such reformation In elections
as will prevent cheating nnd glvo to
every party nnd every voter duo voice
In tho Government. To accompusn
this tho motive to cheat must bo taken
away. A Constitutional convention
nlonocan do that to tho full extent.
Tho conservative is agAlnst altering
rVinntltiillnns and acainst chango. Ho
would thcreforo contlnuo tho evils com
nlnlncd of. Wo thcroforo object to con
scrvatlsm nnd demand that these evils
bo remedied.
Tho Constitution was good for Its day.
So was tho Legi-ilatlon of old. But by
frauds under this Constitution, tho Oa
zelte well knows, nearly ono half our
oters havo no volco in tho Government
-it knows that In 'C3, 'CO nnd 'C9, tho
Democrats elected their candidates for
flnvprnnr In this Stntc. and that Mc
Clelland carried tho Stato for Prcsl
dent in 'CI, but tho counts of tho votes
wero mndo to toll a different talc It,
knows too, that millions nro spent to
carry elections, and that fraud and on-
bery nro npplled to all elections, as wen
in small as In great oulccs, that tho evil
prevails every where, that the cxclto-
mcnt attendant upon elections prevents
cool reasoning and tho oxcrclso of com
mon senso and It knows, further, that
our Legislature has becomo wretchedly
corrupt, and that money buys legisla
tion that Is an outragoon tho rights of
tho peoplo nnd Is dangerous to liberty
Itself. Yet It would havo every body
sit on their conscrvntlvo hunkers nnd
brook all this public wrong rather than
sooth, because tholnstitutlon3 wo havo
onco answered n good purpose contin
ued to answer a good purposo until
rogues multiplied and learned how to
perpetrato rascality under them.
In this world now wants aro constant
ly occurlng and now measures of gov
ernment becomo necessary to meet
them. Tho Republican party has so
debauched tho country that new meas
ures must bo adopted to rcstoro it to
pristino purity. Wo must do as our
Fathers beforo us did, when they found
that tho existing Institutions defeated
their will or oppressed their rightsjthoy
altered or abolished them, and remod
led old arrangements or adopted new
ones as tho purposo they had in view
demanded.
Wo want as much as any to sustain
tho spirit or old Institutions, but wo
want measures that will vigorously tie
compllsh that end. Wo recogtiiso that
there Is such a thing ns progress, and
that laws and Institutions must keep
paeo with It. If good reasons can bo
offered against proposed measures, wo
nro willing to hear them and glvo them
duo weight, but wo havo no regard for
him who stands In tho way of every ro-
form with tho naked objection that it
never had been adopted before.
Our nation exhibits all tho character
istics of growing youth and vigor. En
crgctic blood Hows hotly through its
veins, and tho fountain of circulation
must havo strength,powcr,and activity,
Conservatism Is palsy or tho heart or at
the htart. Laws that aro good for tho
lad or 10 or 20 nro worthless when ap
plied to tho vigor of 30 to 70. Nations
grow as men grow, and laws mu3tadapt
themselves to tho growth. Tho men of
thirty years ago wein not surrounded
nnd combined by Railroads and other
powerful lncorporatlonsas they now nro
-space was not then annihilated as It is
now by llBhtingtelegraphs-all business
is revolutionized, and manners amicus
toms, as well as modes of action aro
constantly undergoing rapid change, of
course now evils constantly arise, (the
devil Is over busy) now energies nro of
daily dovclopcmcnt, now wants aro of
constant occurrence, and conservatism
can never meet tho demands of these
Tho public wants thoreforo demand
enlightened nnd energetic Statosmon
Another Jeitekson Is wanted tomark
out moro perfect paths for tho freest ex
erciso of popular rights other Jack
son's nro wanted to throttlo tho flnan
clal monster robbers of tho day great
Democratic statesmen nro wanted (as of
old) to whom tho peoplo will look ns
guiding stars to lead them on to untrod
don paths of prosperity, happinoss nnd
peace whoso genius will glvo them
Blmplo laws that will protect nil their
rights and crush ovory wrong. It Is not
tho ofuco of conservatism to do this or
any part of It, and although those who
steadily hold back and clog tho wheels
of progress may do about ns much good
as harm, they aro not now tho men for
tho times. As with mon so with partlos.
Genius, energy and action Is tho public
demand, and parties which fall below
that standard must sink Justly pass to
thu mass of Inort matter.
Another lllgli'tinnilnl Scliomel
rJomo nnibltious county Treasurers
havo nt length canned tho climax of
cool Impudence! Thoy havo n bill be
fore tho Legislature to extend tho term
of all present county Treasuiers ono
year thus lidding ono car to tho term
lor which thoy wcro elected. To accom
plish this end, an nssessmcnl was somo
tlmo bro mado upon each Treasurer,
nnd a largo amount of money has thus
been collected to purchaso votes enough
to carry tho bill I It Is almost needless
toslato that tho cfllclent Treasurer of
Columbia county, David Loweniieiio,
Exj., from tho first refused to havo any
thins to do with tho project and declin
ed to contribute. A largo number of
Treasurers nre at llnrrisburg to urgo
tho passage- of tho bill. Wo scarcely
think that thero is recklessness cnougn
oven In tho Legislature to perpetrate
such n palpable outrago upon tho people.
Oh, Radicalism I what sins dost not

The Mac Million Steal.
There may bo members In tho Legis
lature who would voto for any measure,
r.,,-,,.,rl,.,. lmt that class is hot HUfl.1-
clcntly numerous to pass tho omnibus
swindle. Tho moro honest members
outnumber Ihoecamps In tho present
body. Scranion Jiepuuucan,
"That class" is "stilllclotitly numer
ous" in any body composed or n major
ity of Radicals to pass any mcasuro "lor
a price." Tho vole on tho bill will provo
that "tho moro honest members" do
not "outnumber tho scamps In tho pres
ent" Legislature. Tho volo will also
provo thnt a largo majority of the Rad
icals In both houses will voto for tho
"bin steal." and that tho "swindle"
could not bo perpetrated except by tho
support of tho great body oi mo nam
nil nartv. A fow Democrats whosocon-
stltucnclcs nro to bo benefited by tho
steal, and a few rascals amongst them,
who havo Imposed themsches upon n
confiding party, will voto for tho bill
also, but If tho Leclslaturo contained a
Democratic majority In bolh branches
tho thieves would not muster courage
to present their bill. Radical Congresses
and Letrlslnlures aro in their element
when they nro reveling in bold schemes
of robbery.
The most impudent piceo of chnrlat
nnlsmjustnow pervading tho country
is described by tho letters "II. T. Helm
bold." Ho has amassed an Immense
fortune by manufacturing and selling
certain patent medicines, and is using
his money to glvo himself notoriety.
Whenever ho leaves a placo tho fact is
telegraphed. When ho arrives any
where tho doso Is repeated. When ho
goes on tho street for a ride, ho uses an
unlquo but nttractlvo eonvoyanco to
which flvo horses aro attached, threo of
them tandum, and is accompanied by a
rctinuo of lacqulcs. Ho pays for tho
Insertion of puffs in city papers and
sends them to nil country papers whoso
address ho can obtain, with tho puff
marked, and a request for insertion.
Latterly theso nro accompanied by n
card purporting to bo " issued, by tho
Democratic Executive Commlttco oi
tho U. S." On ono sldo of this card wo
find, in bold letters, " Ono Union I Ono

Tun Philadelphia Age, Senator Sum
tier, tho Hnrrlsbuig Patriot, and Wen
dell Philips, nro howling over tho an
nexation of San Domingo in most lu-
gubrous accord. From them wo learn
that annexation would bo ollonsivo to
tho delicato sensibilities of tho black
philosophers nnd eablo demigods of
Haytl ; and that thcreforo tho project Is
sacrilegious. Also, that Grant and
others own tho wholo island. Wo con
fess wo aro oblivious ns regards this
last objection. Wo bellovo It is Indis
putable that "Quant and others" own
tho wholo United States, but wo never
heard of any body oljectlng to tho
country on that account. San Domingo
Is so terribly Ecourged with fatal disea
ses that llfo can not bo sustained thero,
yet lmmcnso armies havo failed to sub
ject Its inhabitants. Tho rugged rascals
who inhabit tho land In splto of both
disease and death, and who havo neith
er houses to llvo In, or shirts to wear,
or grain or meat to eat, yet lovo liberty
to tho extent of destroying invading
armies and defying haughty powers!
In short, they can't llvo, they don't ex

and endurance, aro too lazy to move,
lovo to fight, revel In fevers, mock all

The 1'eilernl election Law.
In n speech In Congress J tulgo Wood
ward denounced tho Federal election
law usurpation In tho following brief
but eloquent terms!
It Is o bill to obstruct suffrngo, to do
liver (ho ballot-boxes of thn States Into
tho hands of tho pimps, sples,,nnd paid
rogues of tho Republican party i n bill,
In a word, to prevent tho Democratic
citizens from enjoying rt freo and fair
ballot. And It marks n curious feature
of our times. ThoJlftccnth amendment
extended suffrage to negroes; tho legis
lation to "enforco" that amendment
takes away suffrago from whlto men.
Tho philosophy of nit this Is, If philos
ophy can bo predicated of tho politic of
tho Republican party, thnt tho political
power of tho country Is to bo torn from
whlto men nnd delivered to negroes!
tho Africnn Is to rulo tho Anglo-Saxon.
To this complexion has tho party of
great moral Ideas como nt last. By
glozlng speeches and honeyed words
they havo deluded tho people for sever
al years past. They hope to contlnuo
tho delusion until they shall havo un
dermined tho South, and stolen all their
rights, nnd consolidated ono grand cen
tral cmplro on tho ruins of tho republic.
Tho prophetic soul of thu President
already discerns tho living rcsemblanco
of our nascent cmplro to that which
King William and Bismarck nro build
ing up to bless tho Germnns, and very
soon, if tho pcoplo contlnuo power In tho
bauds that wlold It now, tho rcsem
blanco of tho two empires will becomo
so palpable that common and uninspir
ed men will not only sco but will feel
what thu President halls in tho future,
tho blessings of u military despotism.
All our legislation points this way. The
bill now beforo us Is ono of tho steps lu
this downward road. It would bo moro
manly and fair If it boro its real pur
poso upon Its frontlets. Why not call
it a bill to destroy tho State right of
regulating suffrago? Or n bill to pro
vent white men from voting? Or, n
bill to contlnuo tho Republican party in
power? Why christen it with tho grim
sarcasm of n " bill to enforco tho right
of voting?" It Is not my purposo to
unnlyzo tho details of tho bill. That
has been sulllclently done by thoso who
have cono beforo mo. Tho effect of it
will bo to tnko tho control of tho elec
tions out of tho hands of Stato officers,
acting under Stato law, and deliver It
over to Irresponsible Federal supervls
ors, who nro armed with tho power of
tho vosse comilattii: of tho army nnd
navy: of arrests without warrant', of
challenging voters, inspecting ballots.
nnd supervising returns ; and they will
bo very awkward ngents of tho ruling
power If, with nil theso appliances, thoy
cannot produce any result that may bo
required. Truo it is, that all this ma
chlnery is limited to elections for Led
oral ofllcers ; but iu most States elect
their ofllcers at tho samo tlmo and placo
at which Congressmen aro elected, tho
practical working of tho machinery
will glvo to Federal ofllcers tho samo
control over elections for Stato officers
thnt thoy will havo in tho choico of
Presidential electors and Congressmen
And if tho States, to cscapo this intoler
able tyranny, should fix Stato elections
on other days, and, after the fashion of
former times, should chooso their olu
core unawed by Federal bayonets, what
would It avail In tho presence of tho
Congress has already arrogated to Itself
What Stato right has not been nlrcndy
denied and shamelessly trampled upon'
What cares tho mad spirit of fanaticism
for Stato rights, Stato protests, or Stato
legislation? Willi tho Supremo Court
packed nnd gagged, with four hundred
millions of tribute money annually
wrung from tho people, with nn army
to collect revenucsnnd control elections
with a navy to absorb twenty millions
of money annually for doing nothing
but to mako itself a laughing slock o
tho world; with corporations enriched
with tho public domain; with legisla
tive power stretched to every object
which ambition or as'arico can covet,
what docs a ruthless party, so clothed
and Intrenched, caro for tho checks nnd
balances of tho Constitution nnd tho
reserved rights of tho States? What
will they caro In tho future ? Literally
nothing now, nnd nothing then. If,
therefore, Stato elections shall survlvo
tho shock of this legislation, they will
survlvo to no purpose. Thero Is but
ono remedy for tho evils that nro upon
us, nnd thu greater and more appalling
evils that threaten us in tho near future,
ml that is to cast out tho men who
havo abused power, and bring back tho
administration of tho government to
Its truo constitutional basis, and keep it
there.

Tho Infernal revenue machinery,

The Now York oxprcss Is responsi

Forty-First Congress :
Born March 1th, 1SC0,
Died Mare'- 1th, 1871.
Its birth was miliaitollftl'drir" "f "
Born without wisdom and living with
out mercy, It died without regret.
Omitting nil that was good in'lcglala
tlon, It approved alt that was bad.
It laid tho heavy hand of power upon
tho States and Peoplo,
And oppressed both by heavy taxation
violence mid Constitutional Innova
lion.
Refusing equal laws to equal States,
And equal rights to equal people,
It legislated for classes of pcoplo and
see Hons of country,
Without regard to Miogieatcst good of
tho wholo country.
Nothing, In time, so becamu Us life ns
tho hour of its death,
When tho Speaker, iu his placo pro
nounced it dead, dead, dead,
Beyond the hope of ail resurrection.

Philadelphia was contested, and sovcral

but that tho testimony was false, yet
tho partizan committee gavo tho heat to
