OUlt PROPUECIES COMING TICUII.
We repeatedly set forth during last fall
that the . Oonstitutional Amendments
meant negro suffrage. The Recon
struction Bill for the South has proved
it for that section of the country, and
the bill of Senator Wilson, which we
publisbecl a week or two.ago';is verify
ing it for the North. We merely re-
Mind our readers of these prophecies
(although we are neither a prophet
nor the son of a prophet) at this time
to . convince them that we were not al
together wrong, no matter who said
wo were. If Wilson, Sumner and Ste
vens ftglit for universal suffrage ou the
line of the Constitutional Amendments
it- will be no more than what we were
teaching the people to expect last
Liberal with the People's Money.
The present Legislature is the most
extravagant with the people's money,
paid as taxes, of any that has ever mot
at Harrisburg. Until a final adjourn
ment of that body, it will not be known
how much of the taxes, hard to pay,
have been throw❑ away by unworthy
SenaterS and Representatives. The
taxpayers, in self defence, will be for
ced to "change the programme," or
still further submit to bo robbed of
their bard earnings. Just so long as.
party leaders and party organs can
succeed in pulling the wool over the
eyes of the voters, will rascality with'
Senators and Representatives and
officers continue.
TUE Legislature of Ohio has sent to
the people for decision, at the election
next October, an Amendment to the
Constitution, so as to make black mon
voters, and to disfranchise deserters.
We believe the same thing was tried
in the Pennsylvania Legislature, but
threettifths of the members not con
senting, it failed. If negro suffrage
does come, we are of the opinion that
Pennsylvania, although it is the land
of Stevens, will be the last State to con
fer it. In the meantime our people
will gnt.along just as happily and pros
perously as those of any other State.
The trouble is to know Which party
the ncgi•oes would as a majority vote
for, and perhaps this accounts for the
delay. We believe there are as many
Republicans as there are Democrats
who are opposed to Degrees voting,
and if the question was put next Octo
ber, the negro suffragers would un
doubtedly be defeated.
-1/.-... - Republicans, as well as Demo
crats, appear to be glad that, Congress
htis adjourned. Why is this? True,
some of the more Radical Republicans
were anxious that Congress should re
main in session, until their every plan
had been accomplished; but the more
temperate Republicans were anxious
for adjournment. The only reason we
can assign for this difference of desire
is that the thoughtful Republicans,
feeling their responsibility under the
present situation of national affairs
and dreading the straits into which
their Radical brethren were precipita
ting • them, wore anxious to gain time
by adjournment, and, ascertain by com
mingling with their constituents, what
their views were, .I.n this, they were
sensible. They have followed the bock
of Stevens, Sernnor, and tho other
Radicals to a great length already, and
we look for a change of tactics when
they meet again in July next, after
they have heard the views of the
people.
The American Colonization So
ciety are doing a commendable work,
in shipping nogroes to Liberia, who
are desirous of going. Many of the
blacks have already availed themselves
of the' advantages ffolired 'in what
might now be called their own coun
try, and large numbers purpose follow
ing their companions. The American
white people can apprehend no difficul
ty from the colored men if they leave
for Liberia, where in a republic of their
own, they, can govern themselves. So
long. as they remain in America, their
lot will be a hard one, as we believe
that every new attempt to confer fa.
vors upon thorn will only increase the
hostility of the whites against them.
Better, far better, is it that they should
have a government of their own where
they will suffer no molestation. The
pow republic is said to be prosperous.
CHUM WIEPPING,-It, hes been scarce
ly possible to take up a paper lately
without coming across an account of
one or more acts of fiendish cruelty
practiced upon children. Within a few
weeks three poor, helpless little ones—
two of them mere babies—have been
brutally and horribly beaten to death.
Some strong measures are required to
put a stop to these •frightful abuses of
parental or delegated power. Wo have
almost come to feel in reading the de
tails of these unnatural crimes that an
occasional admiiiittration of Lynch
new would not be, without beneficial
effect.
Willing to Swallow the Poison,
The :11Ount. Union Times speaking
of our new arrangements, says :--
"The politics of the paper will re-
Mill as bufure , the closing paragraph
of the editors' announcement t3olaring
that 'lf the IZepuhlican press continue
to endorse Or wink at the propositions
of the extreme Radicals, the day will
soon como when the party will also he
in the minority in must of the States in
the Union.' This is very cheering in
telligence to the Radical party of Hutt t•
ingdon County, and we commend it to
the consideration of those of them who
are now giVing to The Mae their per
sonal and (Alicia] 'crumbs of comfort.'''
Of COlll'Bo ' We have no objections to
the Times endorsing or winking at the
propositions of the extreme Radicals
but we claim for ourselves the privi
lege, as we feel it our duty, to neither
endorse nor wink at such propositions
—propositions the Republican or Union
party voters would not endor 2 s'e if giv
en an opportunity for expressing an
opinion at the ballot box. One of the
Propositions of the extreme Radicals
is to force negro suffrage and negro
political equality upon the people of
the North by action of Congress, with
out consulting the wishes of the peo
ple of the States, and in violation of
their constitutional rights. We shall
have no objections to negroes voting
or holding office if the right is given
them by an honest opinion, honestly
expressed. If a Republican Congress
forces such rights upon the negro, the
result will be the defoat of the Repub
lican party in most if not all the North
ern States and the success of whatever
party is in opposition. 440 have no
desire to see men who united with,
and syMpathized with the Southern
rebels, again placed in power ; there
fore we oppose propositions calculated
to weaken the opposition to an organ
ization which may be controlled by the
Vallandighams, the Buehanans, the
Biglers, & Co. It we are to be denied
the "personal and official 'crumbs of
comfort'" at the disposal of the "Radi•
cal party of Huntingdon county," be
cause we Will not endorse the proposi
tion's of the extreme Radicals, be it so;
we will not complain. We would rath
er be free, and right with the people,
than to receive all the "crumbs of com
fort" a party or a Mere partisan could
throw in our way. We are happy to
know - there are enough independent,
and honestly disposed Republicans and
Democrats in the county to support an
independent press.
-STEPHEN
IVE have a copy of the :thlcan (Ga.)
Journal & Messenger, in which th - e ed
itor discourses upon the new voting
element of the South. After dwelling
upon the faithfulness of the innocent
negro during the war and the mystical
relations that still exist between the
former master and slave, the article
closes as folloWs•:
"Let us accept negro suffrage as an
inevitable fact, not to be resented with
impotent malice, nor to be treated with
stolid indifference. If the now suffra
gan is unqualified for the important
duties committed to him, it is the part
of wisdom that •they whoSe interests
are involved with his own, should
strive to enlighten his understanding.
We cannot be guiltless of any evil
consequences which may flow from
this last act of a remorseless and cruel
party, if to avert thorn we fail to ex
haust every effort wo are capable of
making."
Le-The New York Bepublican State
Committee has declared in favor of
"impartial suffrage," at the North as
well as at the South. This is consist
teney, if it amounts to nothing else.
The people of the South are forced to
accept negro suffrage by the recon
struction bill, but as the North did not
need reconstructing, the Radicals are
endeavoring to reach it in some other
way. Sumner intends calling up a bill
with this object at the next session of
Congress. It is beginning to appear
that States, North as well as South,
have no rights which Congress is
bound to respect: Let us wait and See
what the trap is that the Radicals are
so skillfully setting.
despatch from Washington,
dated 2d inst., says : The registry of
voters in the Third ward commenced
yesterday. In this, as in the First and
Second wards, the registered 'blacks
largely preponderate over the whites,
thus affording unmistakable indica
tions that owisg'to the apathy of the
whites, the blacks will control the next
municipal election. We have no doubt
that if a negro Mayor was run for that
city, he would surely be elected, and
this is the turn things are taking.

ttiir A. South Carolina correspondent
of the New York Times, says it is
clear the colored men will not vote as
a unit. lie says there are three-class
es. First, those who were free before
the war, and who will vote with the
old white population ; second, the
idlers who have left the plantations
and live a thriftless life, Who will go
the most Radical ticket they can find ;
third, the largest class of all,who work
and thrive, and who aro inclined to
support the Republican cause, but will
do as their interest dictates. They
however,dcrive their employment from
white men, and will consequently be
much influenced by them. They will
not be likely to put their livelihood in
jeopardy fur any mere political end.
The writer concludes thus : "In view
of these facts, t (Ind that the shrewdest
observers here :u•e of the opinion that
either a majority of the Flacks will be
found supporting the whiteS at the
polls, or that if this should not be the
case, the freedmen's vote will 110 divi•
dedso as to become a-matter of little
comparative importance."

Terrible Explosion in a Coal Pit.
Wednesday morning, at 7 o'clock, a
terrible explosion occurred at the coal
pit of the Rush Run, or. the Cleveland
:tad Pittsburgh Railroad, eleven miles
below Steubenville. The Steubenville
Herald says the curbing sixty feet
from the mouth of the pit was out of
order. Thos. Payne, Luke Harris and
Thos. Paton descended with tools to
repair the curbing, and ,in five min
utes after they had announced their
safe lauding on the platform, a most
terrible explosion occurred, blowing
the beams of curbing, stones and dirt
out of the pit, with such force, as to
lift the roof off the building. Paton
was blown out of the pit against the
roof; and fell with a mass of timber di
rectly across the Bunton over the
mouth, of the pit, entirely dead and
very much binned and disfigured.
Several of the - Workmen standing
near the pit were slightly injured
and stunned by the falling timberii.
The smoke and gas for a time made
it impossible to approach the pit.
A stream of water, however, was
quickly turned in, which purified the
air in an hour sufficient to allow work
men to descend. On examination it
was found the platform and curbing
had wrecked the shaft so as to prevent
a passage to the bottom, some two
hundred feet below the platform,where
the other men had fallen Up to noon,
Wednesday, the bodies of Payne and
Harris had not been recovered. It is
supposed the explosion was the result
of .carelesr.ess on the part of the work
men, in reirniving a part of or making
a vent in the platform, through which
the gas became ignite by the lumps.
The Johnstown Catastrophe
A correspondent of the Cambria
Freeman has the following in regard
to the arbitration of the suit between
Pius Klug and Daniel Ale Pill and
the P. I?, R. Co., at Johnstown :
"The arbitrators appointed by the
Court to receive evidence in the case
of certain sufferers by the 14th of Sep
tember catastrophe here vs. the P.
R. R. Co.,' mot agreeable to appoint
ment in the basement of the new Lu
theran church on Tuesday afternoon
last. A few witnesses were examined,
when the board adjourned until even
ing. The building committee of the
church, concluding in the meantime
that the church would not be benefit
ted by the mixed congregation which
would assemble therein, turned the
key on the arbitrators, and they were
compelled to adjourn to the Council
Chamber. The suit lasted four days,
and some forty , witnesses were exam
ined, when the case was submitted
with arguMent for prosecution by R.
L Johnston, Esq., and on part of the
defenco by Hon. John Scott. The
arbitrators, John A. Blair and H. Kin
kead, Esqs., of your place; and G, W.
Osborne, Esq., of Johnstown, after
due deliberation returned a verdict to
the effect that the P. R. R. Co:, shall
pay to Daniel MePiko $1,300 and to
Pius King $3,000, with costs of suit
in each case. Mr. McPike had suffer

Most Singular Occurrence
One of the most singular freaks of
nature that ever came to our knowl
edge was to be seen on Tuesday at
the stable of Mr. E. E. Evans, in this
boro.,in the shape of a deformed a calf,
all the legs of which had, been inverted,
as if by extension, parallel with the
body, so that while the proper sides of
the flanks were outward, the legs
were pointing upward over the back.
As a consequence, the hind parts were
thrown forward, so that the rump
was nearly midway between the fore
and the hind logs. The ribs, the stom
ach, and the entrails were thrown as,
it were on the calf's back. What was
properly the inner side of the ribs was
outward, and between the ribs, and
hanging over them, was the viscera
enclosed in the usual sac or pouch.
The head was perfect, but thrown
down between the fore legs. In case
the calf would have walked, the head
would have been in the position de
scribed, the ribs would have stood on
the back, somewhat like the hump of
a dromedary, but without any hide or
covering other than the sue that en
closed them and the viscera, the fore
part of the hind, legs would have been
to the rear, and the rump would have
been under what should have been the
body. This singular deformity was
living until a short time before it was
calved. The cow that gave existence
to it is "doing well."---Ebensburg Alle
