The crisis of our' Country's Destiny is upon us.

From the Pada& Union of Thursitor THE DISFRANCHOIEMENT “ACT E 4 GO MEffEEMEI The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, now. sitting at Wilkesbarsge, yesterday (the 90th), derided, by a majority, against the act of Congress of March 3, 1864 which act was intended to disfranchise dwrtere from the military service and non-reporting drafted men. This decis • jon also operates against the State di - Tranchisement act, lately signed by Gov. Curtin, and both acts fall together. We understand that Chief Justice Woodward and Justices Thompson and Strong ren dered the decision against the act, while Justices Bead and Agnew dissented. .• This, then, settles the long vexed Ties thiii, and establishes the fact that Penn sylvania's citizens cannot be deprived of their political' rhpits, without trial and conviction for heinous crimes. The un- Constitutionality of both the act of Con tsl,es; and of the Legislature appeared to so clearly apparent from both a constl nal and common law. stand point, ,k, that it cannot possitily be comprehended how any Judge of an ordinary court, much less two justices upon the Supreme Bench, could for a moment hesitate about their condemnation. Both the Federal Con stitution and our State Constitution dealers emphatically and undisguisedlv that "No ex oat facto law shall be passed.li "The act of Congress of March 3, 1864 and the act of the Legislature signed June, , 1880, were both ex post facto, inasmuch as they were retrospective, and undertook to imnishifor crimes previously commit ted. Again ; no provision was made in either act for the trial of accused persons prevloua to the infliction of the penalties; and hence in that they were in conflict with both Constitutions, which are per fectly clear in demanding that a fair and impartial trial and conviction of crime shall precede the-infliction of punishment 1 or penalties. IMS.From this decision it is clear that bleConaughy holdif his seat in the Senate in violation of fundamental law. The 1 pretext upon which he was admitted by. a partizan committee Is declared untena ble, and all "the props are knocked from under it." ' Having, then, no right to the seat, will he continue to hold on to it ? will he continue to disregard the will of the people as solemnly expressed at the ballot-box ? He may, but a man with any sense of honor would scorn to do it. 1 'PRESIDENT JOUTIOS OPPOSED TO THE AMENDHEET President — Johnson ha taken open ground against. the Constitutional A mendment. In a Message to Congress on Friday he sari "a proper appreelat t i l lm of the letter spirit'of the Consti tion, as well as ofthe interests of natiorlal or der, harmony and union," are against any Amendment now. GOOD lleateoratie ibt.ry to Xebraaul I The Democets, have carried the Ne braska Legislature, thus securing the election of two Democratic United States Senators.

The understanding was that the painting was to be presented to the can didate for Governor having the largest number of votes. The Clymer tickets were deposited in one box, and tlieVreary tickets in another. The voting was kept up with great,spirit for three days, and on Saturday evening the tickets were taken (Mtn the boxes and counted. They stood : Clymer, 2,491 Geary, 1,447 Majority for Clymer, 944 That will do! The Gearyitor made desperate efforts to get the painting for their. candidate. They wrote to negro suffrage men all overthe county, beseech ing aid, on• account of "this being Cl.eary's own county," kc, They worked and begged day and'night, but -all to no pur pose... The friends of Clymer were also quietly at work, and we congratulate them on the result. The result of this contest is an indication of what may be expected this fall in Old Mother Cumberland.— Stand to your guns, Democrats, and all will be well in Oetober.- , ---Carilsle Wm- A Wedding in .Mcibile.—A grand wed ding occurred at Mobile on the 11th, at the African Church. Samuel Jackson, a negro man, once the slave of Geneial Beauregard, married Miss Sarah Jones, a white schoolmistress. The house was crowded by negroes. The friends of the pair afterwards participated in a banquet at the house of the bridegroom. The newly married pair left on an early train to visit the bride's friends at the North: The bridegroom has considerable proper ty.—Baltimore Sun. The above item shows the result of the teachings of the Republican leaders.— They assert that a "negro is as good as a white man," but this Yankee "schoo mann," more advanced than they, thinks a big buck negro better than a white man, partiniarly when the negro has "con siderable property." a General 'Rosman, of Kentucky, caned the Rev. Grinnell, of lowa, the other day. We have no doubt but that the Reverend gentleman deserved !kit he got, and only regret that the cane broke before he had received a sound thrashing. A few lessons of the same kind may teach the white eravated gentry that black guardism and personal abuse will not be tolerated outside of their own pulpits. i'he Democratic Convention of Bedford. county, held on Tuesday last, recommended -Mon.

In units past, when the Government I was administered by Presidents Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Jackeon, Van Buren, Harrison, Polk, Taylor, Pierce and 13u chanan, the expenses of the nation were canvassed with great care and delibera lion, and limited to the smallest sum pos sible. But it is a remarkable fact that since the advent to power of the Repub lican party the word economy has become obsolete. We never hear from the Repub licans the objection which Clay and Web ster, and their compeers, used to urge with such eloquence that this or that bill should not be wired because It Unneces sarily increased the expenses of the Gov ernment and the burthens of taxation on the people. In those days public men often counted the cost to the people of the measures they proposed, and more than one man was shipwrecked because he was reckless and extravagant with the public money. But the times have sadly changed. We never hear the question of how much it will cost started by any one belonging to 'the 'dominant party. The thousand and one schemes against the Treasury are received with favor,' and millions upon millions are appropriated without a single thought of how the mon ey is to be raised, or hoiv many must suffer for, the actual necessaries of life, because the Triasury of the United States must be tilled to meet the expenses of govern- I went. THE RIGHT SPIRIT The Central Lutheran Synod of Penn sylvania held its annual session recently, at Blair, Perry county. 'Rev. W. H. Riv en presided; and Rev. M. L. Culler acted as Secretary. .During the sitting of the Synod the President appointed a commit tee of Ave to report resolutions expressive of the sentiments of the Synod on the state of the country, of which Capt. D. L. Tressier was chairman. It Is gratify ingp observithe true spirit of patriotism kid Christian charity pervading the res olutions. They do credit to the heads and hearts of tho members of the Central Synod, and are in striking contrast with the spirit of bigotry and political fanati- Osm which of late yeirs has been so shit,melessly manifested In our churches and eceldslastical bodies We hope this may be the _beginningiof a better era, when politics will be dikarded from the pulpit and synodical conventions—when ministers will again preach "Christ and Him Crucified," with all meekness and 'forbearance, inculcating the precepts of Him who spoke as never man spakb, in stead of the doctrines of men. The following resolutions are the last two of the series unanimously passed by the Syiiod : • Resoleed, That whereas several promi nent causes of estrangement between the States lately in conflict ave been removed forever by the arbitrament of the sword, it is our duty now, as country loving citi zens, to labor to unite the,bleeding see thing of the national heart, 'that our legal Union may be strengthened by moral bonds, and that thus, fottating the bit terness of thelast and remembering only its Important aehings, we may be more closely and inseparably united ever here after. Resolved, That in this Momentous 'pe riod of our Country's history we look with earnest solicitude ,ko Andrew Johnson, President of the , linited States. whose pa triotism stood the severest test of times that tried men's souls, and that we invoke upon him the blessing and guidance of Almighty God, that, forgetting not the just dignity of the government, he enter tain "charily for all .and malice toward none."

The "sober second thqught of the people" is bringing out a strong current of feeling againatthelr revolution ary schemes. This feeling is strengthen ing every day, and by October It wlU.be overwhelming. The name of Thad Ste vens Will soon be as odious throughout the whole country as it was In Pennsyl-' vania after the "Buckshot war." Those who adhere to him will share his odium, and atl of his present followers who do not want to sink with him had better get out of his boat at once. air The Radicals boast that the "re construction amendment," as amended by the Senate, was passed in the House of Representatives by more than a two third vote. It 4a' fact, however, that it received but one hundred and twenty votes, which is one less than a majority. In the Senate it received thirty-three votes, which is four less than k•rnajority. Two-thirds of the present rump House in session at • ashington differs very essentially from two-thirds of the House that ought to be there. The lime may come when the acts of this nimp Congress will be judi cially declared unconstitutional and void. Sir Th e Republic, the new conserva tive Republican paper at Pittsburg, inti mates that some of the delegates to the late Geary convention held in that city "dispersed to their respective homes" without settling with the landlords. It says: The hotel-keepers, where they were quartered, know that they are absent, but where they cannot tell. Landlords are auxious as to their whereabouts. If their friends would address a letter to the St. Clair and Eagle hotels, they can obtain Infbrniation as to their names, and when they were last heard from. The valiant J. P. Hartranft, the prime mover and getter-up of this convention, under in structions from Williams, Stevens and Sumner, should appoint a committee to investigate this matter, and see that the ex-officers arrived at their places of resi dence. They left neither baggage nor money with their landlords; and truly, they have an anxiety to know that they are Bale. naltisszx S ORR IS YORK CO. A horrible murder was committed neat Iteestown, Werringtoia township, York county, last nights. week. Mr. George Squibbs, aged 72 years, and his grand daughter, aged 12 years, were killed, and Mrs. Squibbs found. in a dying condition. The horrible deed Was committed by some one unknown, and a hatchet is supposed o have been the instrument of death. Money wa ,_no . doubt the, object, ai three* four hundred dollars are mis- I sing. From the feet that all the victims were found divestedi of their shoes, it is believed the murder waii committed when they were preparing to retire. The community is much excited over this repetition of the Dearing massacre. The CoMmiseloners of York county offer a reward of 8300 for the arrest of the murderer or murderers.

The Assksseination Plot.-- , The New York liflr/d's Washington gprrespon dent makes the following astounding statement: "It is stated here that a witness named Campbell has informed reliable parties in New York that the evidence of him self and others before the military corn miesionliavhich tried the conspirators, relative to Jefferson Davis' complicity in the assassination plot, was false, and that one 'Conover got up the testimony to obtalti the reward; that it was all done under assumed names; and further that one of the parties, said to be Con over, had run away, to prevent being arrested. Campbell now claims that his evidence before the House Judiciary Committee, which is investigating the charges of Davis' complicity in the assassination plot, exposed the swindle and knocked the scheme into atoms, thus satisfying the committee that the evidence to connect Davis, Clay and Sanders with the assassination was bogus; and that the committee would no doubt report accordingly. Most of the witnesses have testified under ficti tious names, Campbell included ; but the latter has shown up one of the most rascally schemes that has come to light during or since the war. He claimsthe credit of, exposing it."
