We hage lately read mush about the
horrid consequences which Copperheads
see flawing from Universal Suffrage
the South.; and are daily entertained
with disquisitions about the eTtienie ig
norance of the blacks, theft. brutality,
their unfitness for the elective feaneliftse,
&e., &c, When the Remmatruction
measuresdirst pasied, many of the most
epuspicumis Rebel leaders expressen a
willingness to re-organize, under thetn,
being confident of their ability to control
the votes , of the ,Blachs ; and Tey put
themselves o record in favor o admit
ting theca to Suffrage in thel. South,
where their numbers, tlactr lallor, and
their interests constitute a large elemexat

for their Own protection. It was only
I lifier the Rebel leaders, North and South,
found that the Negroes would not vote
an their. interest, that they etated the
"hue and cry" with which their, papers
are now t-eming. So, With lligin,, it
was all a 'matter of calculation; and
their coarse has revealed , and proVed
their utter and shameful hypocrisy.

THE Copperheads of Ohio and! Mary
land are in a keen controversy over the
U. S. Senatorship to be filled for each of
those Staten for the term to commence
March 4, 1869. In Ohio, VALL4NDIO
HAN. and TILUBMAIy are the leading cau •

iticians fear ihe effect qpon next] year's
elections of the promotion of so odious a
representative of their principles, and
are chiefly for THukatslY, who' was re
cently beaten for Governor. In Mary
land, the fight is mainly between REV
, ERDY JOHNSON, THOMAS SWANN, THos.
G. PRATT, and WILLIAM T. HAMILTON.
JOHNSON is, much the ablest man, and
his re-election is urged by the 'N. Y.
World upon the ground that the Democ
racy have so few members of the Senate
that it cannot afford to supplant-Jomy
soN with one of ordinary ability. 'But
the Maryland Copperheads don't trust
Mr. Jolucsos, who - has always been an
unstable politician, and there is little
probability of his success.' SWANN is an
ass, and doesn't know it ; but the party
do, and he has substantially disappeared.
PaAerr has considerable support in the
more ultra wing of the party, and was
farther committed to the R •bellion than
any one named . except B. G. ETARRIS,

Tnat is the way the unreconstructed rebels
talk about the dead aid dying murdered

the city of seventy-five dollars. •
Now, sir, we want to relieve the people of
the South from such tax bills as the one I
have read. We propose it as a measure of
justice, to give to those who have fought for
us and with us, whatever May be their color,
the right and power of self-protection, so that
we may no longer be called upon to protect
them by:our soldiers. We propose it, sir, as
the great finishing up of the rebellion, which
during all these years of war and unquiet
peace has received the sympathy of those who
are acting with the member from New York,
because we believe that when we have igiven
the ballot to these loyal men of the South
they will protect themselves, and that the bal
lot will be arouild them, doing more duty than
an armed policeman in keeping them from all
wrong and outrage.
Sir, I listen to all these attacks upon
the negro and this talk that the Democracy
are going to take away the ballot from
him, with the utmost contempt. What,
air ! take away the ballot from nearly six mil
lions of people who have tasted its sweets,
felt its power, and were shielded by its pro
tection ! take away that great franchise from
almost a nation ! take away this safeguard of
freedom which no people who ever enjoyed
ever yet surrendered save with their lives .
You may talk about it, you may 'plot for it,
you way try for it, you may scheme for it,
and with all the aid of all the powers of death
and hell, but let me say that the ballot, once
in the hands of millions of freemen, never
was and never can be taken away. That is a
fixed fact, fixed beyond all peradventure, and
whoever arrays himself' against if simply butts
his head against a wall. I have heird enough
of this talk about taking away the ballot from
the negro. Whenever it is attempted I hope
thy fiends on the other side of the House
will go South and head the army Of Subjuga
tion, and when they do they will be welcomed
in a way by which, in my judgment,,they
will learn that the negro has some of the
highest attributes of manhood, to wit, cour
age to maintain his rights, knowledge to ap
preciate then], and steadfastness' never to
yield them up.
Mr. GETZ. .May I ask the gentleman
whether he means that the army he speaks of
will be "welcomed with bloody hands to hos
pitable graves" or not?
Mr. BUTLER. No, sir, no; the negro is of
a kind, amiable, forgiving disposition, what
ever ethnologists may say of his blood, and
when the gentlemen fall in such an unhallow
ed contest they will be taken kindly in the
best way they can and cared for with tender
ness and mercy; not thrown into carts and
carried to workhouses, not given over to the
render mercies of the - station-house, but
brought perhaps to the lowly cabin where
nursing and kindness will take the place of
true valor, firmly-determined, battling for
ri&hts.
I,et me say to gentlemen, too, that the ne
gro has fought for us, and he will fight for
himself whenever he is attacked, and not till
then ; and whengentlemen tell us there will
be a war of races I say that it is like every
other of these predictions about the near.
rabic.. You said be would not fight, bat he
did fight. You said he would not work, but
he does work. You said if we gave him a
vote he would vote just as his master wanted
him to. That is exactly the way he did not
vote. [Laughter.] You said he did not
know how to vote. Well, the negroes vote
just as I would have done if I had been in
their places, and that is as good voting as I
desire. [Laughter.] It is said they are .go
ing to rise and that we are to have a war of
races. Why should they rise, and upon
whom will they rise? They have the power
now because they are the laboring bone and
sinew of that country, because they are the
loyal men of that country. Rise? Why,
they are at the top now, gentlemen on the
othet side say. What sh ould they rise for?
How are they to get up any higher than to
the top, as they are, if we are to believe gen
tlemen opposite ?
Oh, no ; I have listened to these croaking
predictions of evil; the country has listened
to the Th ey are the fal s e prophecies of
false prophe.
Let me say to you, Mr: Chairman, and to
the committee, that we, of the patty of pro
gress, of equality, of right, and of freedom,
shall take no step backward. The ballot put
in the hands of a man created in the image of
his God will remain in hit hands, as his
greatest boon and blessing, until he chooses
to relinquigh it; and no power can take it
from his hands. Whoever tries to 'take it
from him will try an experiment that. in the
history. of the world never yet has succeeded ;
and I, without claiming the gift of prophecy,
will say, an experiment which never will suc
ceed.

revenue of $1,200,000, 000, the tax on a pro
duction of 600,000,000 gallons, as against 14,,
000,000 gallons really accounted for. While
it is presumable that the various stills includ
ed in the foregoing estimate were not pushed
all the time to the extent of their capacity,
yet such lack may reasonably be assumed to
have been made up trom the immense number
of illicit stills which undoubtedly exist
throughout the country. Thus it may be
taken as an approximate proposition that the
Government has. been defrauded, within a
single twelvemonth, of a. gum of taxes vast
enough to liquidate about one-halt of its au
dited debt, principal and interest. Nor is a
production of 600,000,000 gallons of whiskey
for the past year an extrava4ant estimate,
when it is understood what copious quantities
are annually consumed in the various depart
ments of manufactures and the arts, in addi
tion to what is used as a beverage. Well
might the Secretary of the Treasury, after the
survey 01 such startling facts, say : "The in
ternal revenue of the past year would have
largely exceeded the estimates but for the
failure of the revenue officers to collect the
taxes upon distilled liquors. This failure
Is well known to the country, and has been
thri cause of deep regret and not a little hu
miliation to the Secretary," and he adds that
the illicit traffic has "demoralized" both the
manufacturers and the Government officers."
This mutual "demoralization" began
when ANDY JoaNsos began to turn out
of office honest men, and put in "Bread
and Butter" Apostates and Copperheads.
It will stop. and the Government will
collect its taxes, when honest men are
restored, and_the present corrupt officials
removed.
The people get glimpses from this ex
hibit, of what would be the condition of
every branch of the public service, bud
not Congress interposed by the Civil Te
nure Act. to cheek JOH.NSON'S tendency
to restore the Copperheads fully to power.

for restoration to power. Splendid "pick

THE nomination of General GRANT as
the next Republican candidate for Presi
dent, seems to be rapidly becoming a
"foregone conclusion." Leading Repub
licans in various parts of the country
have already declared for, him, while the
Republican pressgenerally urge his nomi
nation. The Copperhead presses', on the
other hand, which but a few months
since claimed him as a supporter of the
President's policy, have opened their
oatteries on him. Even the BLURS
have given him up as au obdurate Radi
cal. Senator WILSON, of Massachu-etts,
has written a long letter in favor of Gen.
GRANT, endorsing him as sound on the
issues dividing the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties. We make the following
extract:
"To the reconstruction policy of Congress—
the vital and overshadowing issue ot the day—
General Grant gave his earnest support, and
he has zealously striven to carry the legisla
tion of Congress into effect. To leading
Southern men he said, ''You must look to
Congress"; the Republicans have_the power ;
consult them ; do nor seek tae councils of men
in the North who opposed the war ; the peo
ple will never trust that class ormen with pow
er; the more you look to them for advice
the more exacting Congress will be and ought
to be ; the rejection of the Amendment and
the legislation against the freedmen will cause
Congress to require universal suffrage ; and
you should at once give it:' On the recon
struction policy Gen. Grant has been and now
is in accord with Congress and the Republi
can peril , . So anxious was he to have that
policy protraptly carried into effect that he lir
gently pressed upon members of Congress the
vital importance of so arranging the adjourn
ments as to be able to meet at any time,
should the needs of the country require It."
WALLacE, Chairman of the Copper
head State Committee, is again at work
wit "secret" circulars. Our readers wili
reallect the one he issued just before the
October election, instructing ihe town
ship leaders to go to work privately, re
commending the eolonization of voters in
doubtful districts, and offering premuims
for voters for the "Democratic" ticket.
Re has Issued another circular, which has
just been brought to light,.dated Clear
field, Dee. 10, and marked "private." It
has reference to the Spring elections, and
the securing of Judges and Inspectors by
reason of the supineness and neglect of
Republicans. Let our Republican, friends
be fore-armed and on their guard ! V 4 wL
LACE'S object evidently is to get the
Judges and Inspectors of elections, and
then next fall deserters . cau be voted and

voters who have never.had a "local habi

The Republican Senators met in caucus
on Mcinday evening and made the follow

Spealcer—James L. Graham, of Allegheny
Chief Clerk—Geo. W. Hammerly, of Phil*

Assistants—Luclus Rogers, ofMcKean, and
F. EL Broggins, of Mercer.
Trartactibmg Clerks—Michael Belly, Ad

Sergeant-at-Arms—Wm. A. Rupert, Craw

Doorkeeper—Ethel Fuller, Bradford.
Assistant—John L. Burns, Adams.
Librarian—John Styer.
The Republicans of the House met in
caucus on the same evening and made
the following nominations :

Chief Clerk—General'James L. Selfridge
of Northampton.
Assistant—Edward G. Lee, of Philadel
phis.
Sergeant-at-Arms—Casper Zang
Postmaster—A. G. Henry.
Doorkeeper—J. H. Hall.
Some difficulty was anticipated in the
organization of the House. Nine Repub
licans declined to go into caucus. As
the Republicans have but eight majority
in the House, these nine can, if they per
sist, defeat the caucus nominees. If the
organization was effected yesterday, the
Governor's message would be sent In to

Tits REPUBLICAN POLICY.—The platform
so ingeniously erected for a Republican
Congress by President Johnson and his
advisers is already demolished. Congress,
with a propmtitude and decision that deserve
credit, is proceeding to build a platform of its
Gwn. So far as we can see at present tha
planks in this platform are these :
1. The reconstruction question will not be
reopened. The legislation already enacted
on this subject will be adhered to and carried
into effect The reconstructed States will be
restored to their ancient places, and if the
Democratic party wishes to keep up the agi

Cu A P.LE s H. Parker, conductor on the Johns
town accomnadation train, Pennsylvania rail
road, met his death on the ev eing of the 31st
ult. at the hands of a drunken desperado name
ed Samuel Hull, who was a passenger in his
charge. Conductor Parker called upon Hull
for his ticket or his fare. The latter refused
to hand over either, and acted in a very disor
derly manner. Finding Hull was determined
to be unreasonable, Mr. Parker had recourse
to the last resort of a coductor with a refrac
tory passdnger, and rung the bell to stop the
train, in order that Hull might be put off.
The train was stopped about one mile west of
Nineveth Station, Westmoreland county, and
just as it stpped, Hull drew a knife and
plunged it into the body of Mr. Parker who
expired almost immediately, without uttering
a word. The murderer coolly walked out of
the car, pulling the bell rope as he did so, and
before the horror-stricken passengers could rest
lize their duty to seize him, the train was in
motion, and the murderer had escaped. The
train proceeded to Johnstown, with the body
of Mr. Parker, whose residence was at Cone
maugh, three miles beyond Johnstown, where
he leaves a young wife, to whom he was
wedded some six months ago. Mr. Parker
was about- twenty-eight years of age, a cour
teous and obliging conductor, and a faithful
officer of the Company. Hull the murderer
has since been arrested.
