EDWARD McPHERSON,
HIL , STEVENS' SPEECH.
We give, on the outside, the remarks
of Nr. STEVENS, in closingthe debate on
the Supplemental Reconstruction bill,
Plow' ut,the late seb - bion of CoKress.
They are very clear
,in the pre4entation
of the relations of the conquered rebels
to the Government. Upon this question,
hinge all others ; and we have not seen
it more satisfactorily and comprehen
mively stated. The Democracy denounce
the speech, as from long liabit they de
nounce everything which falls from this
most formidable of their foes. The Phil
adelphia Aye, with a sympathy for the
cause of the Rebels as active as that it
formerly had 'for the rebellion itself, vi
tuperatively attacks it. We print it,
that the people fluty understand the
grounds upon . "-the legislation of
•(.2mgress nation. When
ever any the. Opposition
may answer g, we will give
it the baefit,of Our elibulation.
The truth is, his positions are impreg7
_noble. No right can be dearer than the
right of the law-making power to indi
cate the terms an which political power
shall be restored to the rebel .States.—
The Congress Ipts prescribed the terms ;
and in due time• there will be .a loyal
' restoration of the Union. The demo
: (trade leadeis nefer restoration ur& the
PRtSLDENT'S ie of disloycqty ; and, to
effect it, assert the power of the PJtsst
DENT, and deny that of the Congreis, to
legislate upon the subject ! To . state this
proposition, is to answer it.. The PEEI3.
IpEar.r.has no power to make a law. His
duties are to execute existing law. With
Congress alone, rests this great ,preroga-
Live,. They have acted, and the work is
substantially done, and in such way as
to prevent etrectually the recurrence pf
- such a calamity as rebellion. .
GREENVILLE, Tenn., President John
son's home, gave a Republican majority
of 90 ; the county, of 739. In the noun'-
tan counties of. East Tennessee, where
there are hardly any colored votes or dis
franchised whites, the Republican major
ity is about the same as the majority: for'
the Union in 1881, and the vote is cast by
substantially, the same men who- thtn
"stood by the Union." In Nashville,
many freedmen have been discharged
by their employers for voting the Repub
lican ticket and others have been threa
tened. Gesi'l Carlin, in command there,
has ordered one of his staff to use every
effort to find employment for them, and
tb compel the employers to make an im
mediate settlement with them. Persons
unprincipled enough thus to discharge (
might reasonably be suspected of a pur
pose,
k cheat, those accidentally their
power.
AT a Dethocratic meeting in Woodford
county, Kentucky, on the 23rd of July
last, speeches' were made by W. C. P.
Breckinridgq, D. Howard Smith, and
Basil Duke. All these men belonged to
"Morgan's men" daring the war, and
Duke succeeded to the command, after
Morgan's death. Two.of the candidates
on the Democratic State ticket were colo
nels in. the Rebel army. Their names
are D. Howard Smith and John Rodman.
Kentucky furnished about 2.5,000 men
to the Rebel Army. These men have gen
erally returned to the State, are voters,
and. helped make the huge Democratic
majority polled at the late Congressional
election. In Kentucky, the Democratic
party is in absolute control of men who
were openly in - the rebellion. In most
of the States, it is controlled by men who
were In secret-sympathy with the rebel
lion.•l•
Ix hficabaszt, they, intend to have a
session of the Legislature every second
year. This is now the rule in many of
the Western. States. The general ten
dency appears to be to have bi-ennial ses
sions, and sessions limited in duration
by legal and constitutional provision.—
The origin of this tersdency is the prevail
ing distrust of State Legislatures, in
which, for years, corrupt practices have
been extemling. There is, undoubtedly,
reason for the' anxiety ;_ and some effici
ency may be in the remedies proposed.
But public attention should not be with
drawn, by them,ifrom the only thorough
remedy—the election to 'places of trust'of
men who Will hold themselves above and
beyond all corrupt influenCes, indirect or
otherwise.

Soitz Democratic papers think that as
greenbacks are not "legal tender" for
,paying. Interest on Government bonds,
.they might as well not be "legal tender"
kir any debte. They would haire been
a "legal tender" for interest, but the cre
dit of the Government, during the war,
was so much undermißed by Democrats
croaking, "you can't wiper the South,'
"this enormous debt 411 i never be paid,"
"the taaesalto° grievous to be borne,"
41cc., that he Government waacom
palled, IM order to get any sale for their
bonds, to agreito pay the interest in gold.
Rut for the unpatriotic conduct alluded
to, the people would be able to save every
yiar the amount of the premium on the
gold they are required to use in the trans
action of buainess.
THE friends of a free railroad law are
bestirring themselves. We observe that
in Republican nominations for the Leg-?
telature in the . Nrern as well as the
Western part of th State,referenoe is had
to the °pillions and votes of candidates
on this question. The secret enemies of
this great measure—on which, by the
way, the Democratic State Convention
preserved a simpieloos silence—must pre
parenext winter to reverse their record of
last session, or make a square issue with
the people.

These . results aptly confirm our remark
of last week that the Democratic party,
as a national organization, is dead. It
may carry Maryland, Delaware, and
Kentucky, and a few scattering counties
elsewhere; but the probabilities are that
all the remaining States will be Republi
can. Henceforth, the governing power
in the Nation is the Republican.
The Democracy have, by their Treason,
fully earned the disgrace and feebleness
into which they have fallen.
THE Harrisburg Telegraph has ex
humed a valuable record, in further illus
tration of the confirmed hostility of the
Democratic Party to "Legal Tender"
notes. We have already produced the
record of. Judge SHARSWOOD'S opPositiOn
to them .because, in his opinion, an un
constitutional currency. -
Our readers have probably forgotten
how, in April, 1884, the Democrlitic mem
bers of the Legislature opposed the pay
ment of the Interest on the State debt in
"Legal Tenders," and insisted that it
should be paid in gold.
The Republicans, on the other baud,
held that the State having promised to
pay interest 'in "lawful money," it was
competent to pay it in "Legal Tender
notes," and passed a bill for that purpose,
through both Houses, and it became a
law. From that day, the State interest
has been paid in currency, with a saving
to the State of over four and a half mil
lion dollars, as will appear from the sub
joined statement showing THE AMOUNT
ON INTEREST DUE SEMI-ANNUALLY since
the passage of the act ; THE PRICE OF
GOLD each day the interest fell due, and

the interest had been required in specie :

Had the Democratic membtrs of the
Legislature succeeded in their policy, the
State would have lost the enormous sum
stated above—all to signalize their hostil
ity to, the legally-constituted. currency cif
the country !
There was but one exception among
"the Democrats—Senator Kinsey ofl3ucks.
He voted with the Republicans to pro
tect the "Legal Tenders" from the at
tacks of the leaders of his flirty. With
this exception the Demo'cratic law
makers -seconded Judge SHARSWOOD'S
judicial assault upon a• currency whose
issue was a necessity of the War, and
without which the Rebellion would most
likely have succeeded.
THE Democrats claim that they repre
sent the opinions of THOMAS JEFFER
SON. We subjoin a letter of JEFFERSON
LO BENJAMIN BANNEKER, a black man
well known in the early history of the
country, and who at the time of the cut
ting off of the District of Columbia sat
with the Maryland Commissioners and
took part in their deliberations:
PIILLADELPIIIA, AUgl#Be 80, 179
Stu : I thank you sincerely for your letter
and the almanac it contained. Nobody wish
es more than I do to see such proofs as you
exhibit that Nature has given to our black
brethren talents equal to those of the other
colors of men, and that the appearance of the
want of them is owing merely to the degraded
condition of their existence in Africa and
America. I can add with truth that no one
wishes more ardently than I do to see a good
system commencait for riosthk the condition
of their mind tow t Night to be, so far as
the hitbecility 41Ler'r present existence and
other circumanwees which cannot be ne
glected will admit.
I have taken the liberty of sending your
almanac to Mona de Condorpet, Secretary of
the Academy of Science at Paris, and a mem
ber of the Philanthropic Society, because I
consider it a docuMent to which yOur whole
color have a right for their justification against
the doubts which have been enteitain t ed of
them.
I am, with great esteem, dear sir, your obe

FOREIGN EMIR.
A meeting was held on Monday evening
last,' in London, to protest against cutting
down the franchise as flied in the Reform bill
by the House of Coriunons. The bill gives a
vote to every resident householder in a bo
rough who personally ,pays rates, and it also
renders personal payment of the rates compnl
tory, so that, in fact, every householder of full
age will have a vote.' In addition, there is the
"lodger" franchise, which confers a vote on
every male lodger who has occupied for a
year the same lodging, If it is of the yearly
value of XlO, ulstbrolahed. In the counties a
vote is given t 6 any person outside the limits
of the Parliamentary boroughs who pays £lO
a year rent. All boroughs with less popula
tion than 10,000 are to have one member, and
the four boroughs in which corrupt practices
elections have been proved, are to be Al
together disfranchised. In the House of Lords,
on the SOth ult., amendments were made, add
ing £5 to the annual amount of rentals upon
which the copyhold and lodger franchises are
respectively based.—ln FRAMS, imprison

Guu. Sickles has removed the police of

Tot last Legislature of Texas gave a blow at
"LC* Tenders" in this way. They largely
inc iced the fees of officers of Courts, and
th ovided that the new fees should bepaid
where parties offered United States notes, but
the old ones should be paid if the parties of
fered gold. These patriots were unable to
make % - 'onfedcate notes" a legal tender, so
they determined that, as far as they could
'help it, United States notes should not be.
Judge SHAESWOOD tried to accomplish a like
purpose, in a different manner.
GEN Sheridan has removed Gov. Throek
morton, of Texas, and appointed E. M. Pease
in his place. Gov. Pease is an eminent law
yer, has lived in Texas since 1833, was Gov
ernor from 1853 to 1857. was a consistent
Union man during the war, and was the Re
publican candidate against Throckmorton.—
General Sheridan has also renuared many of
the Aldermen and assistant Aldermen of New
Orleans, by reason of the disordered condition
to which they have reduced the City credit,
and their obstruction of reconstruction.
Tar Washington Star of August Ist says,
that "it seems to be generally understood here
that GCn. Gnesx not only-declines to become l i
a party to the proposed removal of SHERIDAN,
but will surely see that his policy is carried
out to the letter ki whomever the PRESIDE srr
may send in his stead. The law, as modified
at the last session of Congress, makes it his
duty, and not the President's, to supervise
and direct the policy of the commanders of
the several military districts." The 4Pars t- DENT, it is given out, intends to relieve Sara
.this, and put Gen. HAsooox in his place.
I Two Northern men recently visited Colum
bia, S. C., and made speeches at the Repub
lican State Convention then in session. That
evening, they were attacked and beaten by a
band of ruffians, comprising members of sev
eral leading families. When these men were
arrested, the magistrate released them on in
sufficient bail ; and next day, Gen. SICKLES
removed the magistrate, and re -arrested the
parties guilty of the outrage. We are person
ally acquainted with the young men attacked,
and are glad to find that the military power
has been exerted for their protection. They
are intelligent, educated, and worthy men.
Tux Mobile Advertiser (Democratic) ad
vises the Southern blacks to vote for colored
Representatives to Congress, in preference to
white Radicals. It adds :
"We prefer them a hundred to one, and we
do not see why the negroes should not do it.
We prefer them, because, in the first place,
we can trust a Southern black man when we
cannot trust a white traitor or a Yankee spec
ulator in negro votes."
Colonel Forsyth appears to be in a very un
happy frame of mind now-a-days. He was
furiously in faror of the Rebellion after Lin
coln was elected, and is furious enough now
to be in favor of another. The people "bare
the hang" of him, and all like him, and will
do as they please. Tbe past is secure, and
the future will take care of itself.
THE Harrisburg Patriot and Union
threatens another war, in case its party can
not elect a President in 1868, in violation of
existing law. It says :
"Let arrangements be made immediately,
under the old State laws, of the ten Rebel
States, to take the lawful white vote of those
ten States, in November, 1868, and it' by that
vote, added to the Conservative vote of the
North, a Conservative candidate shall be in
majority, let that man be made President at
whatever cost or sacrifice!"
This advice is from an organ of the"law and
order" party; the "Constitution-loving" par
ty ; the "law-abiding". party. The gentle
men whb give this advice did no fighting
in the late war. We have no fear of what
they may do in the next. The loyal people of•
the nation will elect the next President, and
carry on the government, in their way, re
gardless of all threats.

eit4LOGFY.—Ne. I.
Viagra. Narrows :--The progress of geol
ogy Within the last quargpr of a century, is
unparalleled In the history of Science. But
a few years eine., and an individual could
not be found in the American Republic, who
was acquainted with our most common
rooks, or with the general structure of the
earth ; now, it is not uncommon toiled mem
bers of infant schools familiar with the names,
the properties and uses of nearly ali the rocks,
and the most useful ores. The time is cer
tainly near, when geology will be generally
considered as elementary and as necessary
as its sister science geography, and moreim
portant than the theory of grammar. I have
only found out the use of geology since I
have had something to do with our moun
tains.
The practice of using Some small manual
on geology as a book for reading lessons in
schools,.which is now becoming common,
has already produced results decidedly bene
cialtand not less on the highly important and
miserably defective art of reading, than on
the progress of science. No fact is more fully
proved by experience, than that one of the
beet modes of improving the character of
reading In schools, woulu be to substitute
books of science, and of ura3ftil knowledge,
generally, for the collection of scraps found
in all our schoolbooks for reading, and some
manual on geology as one of the lint. Tlids
science treats of things around us and under
our feet, and of course leads children to 136-
serve, to examine, and to collect specimens
in illustration of their reading lessons in
school or at home, if those lessons relate to
some subject.
Connected with the science of geology.
various arta have progressed with a rapidity
which would otherwise have been impossi
ble. Agriculture, Civil Engineering, and
various manufactures, have received an aid
and a stimulus from the progress of geologi
cal science, which has opened many new
scources of wealth, while it has added greatly
to the success of those before resorted to.
A farmer in Maryland, a few years ago.
sold a lot of land for a thousand dollars.
which but for the discoveries made upon it
by geologists, was not valued at a hundred
dollars. By the application of marl, dis
covered in the progress of geology, many
farms, both in Maryland and New Jersey.
have been rendered highly productive.
which before were not worth r•ultirating or
fencing.
Copperas, chrome yellow, epsocu salts.
alum and many other ingredients essential
in the arts, are now made from materials
collected from our own bills, mountains, and
valleys ; and of course a good quality, and at
so cheap a rate, as wholly to stop the impor
tation, of those articles. Chrome yellow has
been reduced in price greatly. Copperas.
which itivade almost spontaneously from a
material found in exhaustless abundance, in
various parts of our country, has become 160
cheap, that the expense of getting,it to market
is equal to that of manufacturing. A mere
list of articles recognized as the fruits of
science, would swell an essay on the subject
beyond a proper length. MAGNET.

WONDERFUL! WONDERFUL ! I—Dr.
J. Valentine cures in most cases, instanta
neously by the LAYING ON OF . HANENS.
Has been performing cures in Martinsburg,
Frederick City and Hagerstown that bare
.41 ,
seemed miraculous. Will be in Gettysburio
from 6th to 14th of August. Roomsat Eagle .
Hotel. Many persons that were considered
incurable e .have been instantly cured.
The Poor Treated Free of Charge, Others
according to Ability.
Dr. Valentine's practice is mostly diseases
given up as incurable.
Having been in Carlisle, Mechanicsburg
and York, performing cures that seemed al
most miraculous.
His treatment 'is peculiar to himself al
though there have been men in ages who
have had the same magnetic power over dis
eases of the body and mind (the "Gift of
Healing;") yet few have seemed to possess it
to such an extent over nearly all diseases
and lessons. It is life and vitality passed
from a strong, healthyi body, to a weak one,
that restores the lost or unequal circulation
of the vital or nervous fluid.. So powerful is
this influence, that persons who have many,.
years suffered from diseases which have
been pronounced incurable, and to whom
medicine has been adminstered with no
good effect, have been restored to :health in
an almost incredibly short space- of time..f—
It will not reStore a lost member of the bo
dy or perierin other impossibilities, but it -
will (flivayA paiwf from whatever
cau s e. The practice is in harmony with all
natural laws. Many eminent physicians of
every other practice not only acknowledge
this Power, but i•eceive the treatment for
themselves and families, as well as to advise
it to their patients. The Dr. gives no medi
cine and causes no pain. By this treatment
it takes but a few minutes for inveterate
cases of almost any curable chronic disestsl .
—and so sure is the effect, that but few dilr l
eases require a second operation. Paralv-
Nis is slow and uncertain sometimes, though
rarely, them • patients have been fully resto
red with one operation ; they are, however.
always bonetitted.
Dr. Valentino will be in Hanover from the

THE PLAN of. the Washington Library
Association of Philadelphia is to offer to the
public an interest in a charitable institution
by offering stock iu shares of one dollar, for
which a certificate is given with an engrav
ing fully worth the money paid. As a still
further inducement to have the shares taken
up rapidly, every stockholder is promised a
present of some value in addition to his stock
certificate and picture. The funds thus se
cured by the sale of stock are deposited with
Messrs. GEORGE A. CooKE a. Co., Bankers,
No. 33 South Third Street, Philadelphia, to
be by them applied to the object in view. A
charitable public institution thus receives the
benefit, and not a private individual. Read
