IT is not often elections occur where
in• both'sides take glory, but it does
seem to be occurring more frequently
orls4 than fOinerly. In the recent

arm amount of Internal Revenue

months of the fiscal year from July Ist
to March 31st, just passed, was ono
hundred and ninety-four millions—
twenty and one half millions more

AT iho late election in Kentucky
white men refused to cote, which was
very" foolish in them. That is just
what radicalism wants. White men
should have voted, and seen that none
but men of their own color did role.—
Altoona Sun.
Tho above, we infer, is to be line of
"Democratic" teaching hereafter. De
mocrats must not be so "foolish" as
not'to vote, but must go to the polls
and see' that only white,men vote. If
this policy is pursued, why not go
farther, and prevent White men from
voting . who favored the enfranchise
ment of the colored race ? Why not
advocate a free election for white De
mocrats, and a free tight to white and
black Republicans ? Then the Demo
crats would have things their own
way, and sweet 'Democracy" would
ride triumphantly into power over
bruised heads and bloody noses. Mr.
Sun, tell us, is this what you want ?
"LET US HAVE PEACE "—The Union
arSy, we believe, diet wt silt render to
the rebels who tried to destroy our
Government, neither is it, likely that
Republicans who stood firm to their
party organization and party nomina
tions will surrender to disorganizers
who, last fall, gave their influonce and
their votes to elect Democrats to of
fice, and who still continue their ef
forts to strengthen their disorganizing
purposes by pr.mti6ing and giving
small Government offices to weak
kneed party men. "Let us have
peace !" The only way to penes is to
adhere to party organization and par
ty nominations, and the repudiation by
tho party of disorganizers until they
aro willing to work with and for the

One Hundred Dollars Bounty.
Soldiers w 1..) enlisted in IS6I, under
the first call of President Lincoln, for
three years men, Were promised one
hundred (Ink:U . :, bounty. The. , Gov
ernment, under sat bseqmp Clegislation ,
refused to pay this bounty unless the
enlisted men had served two years o r
upwards, or had been discharged for
wounds. Those discharged for disa
bility not caused by wounds, (sickness
for instance.) were thus deprived of
bounty. In the peninsular_ campaign,
under McClellan, tbousands of men
were disabled bY sicknds - s, and among
these wore many of the) Pennsylvania
Reserve cgrps, who, having been dis
elirgbd disability,considered them
selves, equally entitled to bounty with
those wile). had been discharged for
wounds. A test case was recently to
ken before the Supreme Court, the sol
dier contending that lie was entitled
to his bounty, as he had been promised
'it "when honorably c.lischarged." The
Court decided in factor of the'plaintiff,
I'vhen B. 11.:F1'encli,:Esq ,'Sec6iid . Au
ditor of the' Treasury; under date' of
Al ril 11th, issued the following,cireu•
lar : '
11Elb
"The recent decision of the Supreme Court
of the United States applies only to men who
enlisted for three years, between May 4,
1861, and, July 22.1861, and were honorably
discharged. Discharge for promotion does
not entitle the soldier promoted to this boun
ty. In case of death, after discharge, the
heirs of the soldier are not entitled to the
bounty. Soldiers entitled to this bounty will
not be entitled to 'bounty under the net of
July 28, 186 G. The blunty there premised'
is upon certain conditions named in the act,
and this decision does nut change these con
ditions."
Under the above decision,, many of
the Pennsylvania Reserves will be en•
titled,to the bounty.
B. F. Brown, E,q., claim agent of
Pittsburgh, under date of April 9th,
addressed to the •Second Auditor the
following interrogatory_:
you pleasednform me if soldiers who
enlisted in April or- Iblny, 1861, (as was the
case with the Pennsylvania lleserves,) but
who were not mustered until on or about
July 29, 1861, will be paid the $lOO bounty
under the recent decision of the Sept eme
Court ?"
To the - abOve the Second Auditor
replies: "Only such soldiers as were
accepted under proclamation of Ala)
3, 18(11, aro entitled to bounty under
the deeisibn of the Supreme Court."
The Census of• 1870.
The 'Census Bureau 'at Washington
is fottwarding . eirculars to the Marshals
throughout the country employed to
take the census, giving them instruc
tions aS to'their duties, and particular
ly impr,•saing upon them the necesety
of' securing competent men as entimer.
:dors, in order, that the hes'ness may
be•dono in a thorough manner. ft has
been found that two copies of the cen
sus will be sufficient for all purposes,
and the third one now allowed by law
can be done away with ; the C,irei•n
ment saving by this means, it is esti
mated, near $lOO,OOO. The Secretary
of the Interior has so informed Con
gress The Superintendent is in re
ceipt of the reports of the Mar'shals,
stating they have complied with. the
law 'and divided their districts into
sub-districts.
The subdivisions 'of this State-bare
not yet, we believe, been announced
Where sub-divisions have been made
in counties, it has been upon a basis of
not mono than 20,000 inhabitants.
Each assistant must do the work in his
district himself, and nut by proxy, and
must reside in the district. The fol
lowing are the fees :
• Cents
Fin the name of each inhabitant 2
For each factory - - "10
For each ftirin • - - - 15
For'each mile • - - • 10
The mileage is ascertained by mul
tiplyffig the equare root of dwellings
in district by the square root of the
number of square miles in the district,
the philosophy ofw hid) we leave each to
decide for himself It will be seen that
an inducement is thus held out to
make the fullest possible returns, The
returns must be made before the Ist
of October.
THE LOCAL OPPION BILL.—The Good
Templar, published at Lancaster, does
not regret having made the effort to
pass the Local Option License Bill,
and thinks the cause of Temperance
has been greatly benefitted by the agi
tation. It counsels the friends of tem
perance to prepare for the next cam
paign, by taking part, first, in the pri
mary political meetings, then at the
polls, and again before the Legislature.
Referring to the defeat of the bill in
the Senate, it says:
• The . ‘:Liberty Leagues" were repre
sented there ; the Brewers' Unions
were at Harrisburg to "see" members
in regard to this bill, agents were about
the lobbies, operating quietly ; and the
familiar autograph of "Spinner" did
the work, and convinced a sufficient
number of the people's servants of the
uneonstitntionality of any act of As
sembly calculated to iNterfere with the
sacred right of making drunkards in
all parts of the State, by hundreds and
thousands, regardless of the will of the
people.

Death of Bishop Kingsley.
The M. E. Church of the United
States tfrogrns the fall of another of her
great men: On -Saturday the 9th inst.,
the Atlantic cable announced the death
of Bishop Kingsley at Beirout, nn the
?ilediteranean. This numbers the fifth
great man.of that denomination,whose
light has gone out in the past month,
Dr. John McClintock, Bishop Thomp
son, Br A. C. Foss, Bishop Kingsley
and A. W. Cornell,
On Sabbath morning last, lien. Jno
A. Gray, of Christ Church, Pittsburg,
referred to the death of Bishop Kings
ley and gave the following sketch of
his life - • ; • • • ;
Bishop Calvin Kingsley was ;born
in Amesville,, Oneida county., N. Y ,
September Bth, 1812.
, 1820 his father' left Oneida and
moved to Clianta9ua county, in the
extreme western Part of the State
Here he was subjected to all the hard
shps of a rude paineer life; hero hd
heard Alethodist preaching fur thdfir , t,
time.
From the time of his cop yorsion' lie
felt a strong desire to procueo , a col
loginto education.
It was nnt posi,ible to spare him.
from the farm, and he' attended sdhobl
three - months in the Meter. and work
ed the remainder of tho year. The first
books in advance' of those poiisessed
by the community; ho obtained by
working a "sugar place" on shares,
having half the sugar fpr the work.—
This he carried on his shoulders,walk
ing ten miles - JO Jamestown, where
he exchanged his sugar for books
Lamps and candles in those days were
luxuries not easy obtained; so he used
"fat pine" for lights. By means of
these torches ho applied himself to his
books long after others were asleep.
Ile also carried his book with him by,
day, snatchiag every moment to mas
ter the hard contents. During' the
winter of 1835 be was licensed to, ex
hort. It seemed to press upon his
mind the duly of the ministry, and at
first it seemed impossible for hymn to
preach the Gospel, but he reasoned
thus, as he often remarked in relating
his experience : "All things are pos
sible with r God, and if He has called
mo to this work 130 will assist mo to
du it."
In 1337 he was licensed to preach.
After reciving his pay for a winter's
teaching he purchased a suit oftdothes
and with-twenty dollars in his pocket
started for Allegheny College. Ile
walked sixty miles to reach that in
stitution of learning. On his way he
met an old initerant minister who ask•
ed him, "Where are yon going t" '•I
am going to get an edncation," he re
plied- 'Atter self denial and 'hardship
be graduated in 1841,
.and -was the
same year elected Professor of Matbe
matics in his'alma mater. '
During this year ho 'was married to
Miss Delia Seudd'ei•. This year also
he joined the Brie Conference, and
was aiiiMiOted to Saegartown circuit,
and the rig year asjunior preach
or to Meadville station In 1843 lie
was admitted into full connection and
ordained Deacon by Bishop Soule.—
Two years later he was ordained El
der by Bishop Hemline.
In 1852 he led his delegation by a
dticided vote as a member of the Gen
eral Conference held in Boston.
He made such a favorable impres
sion upon that body chat he received
upwards of forty votes for the Episeo
pa6y.
In 1853 the Genesee College confer
red on him the degree of D. D. In
1860 he led again the delegation in
the General Conference, and was an
active member :14'Thu Committee on
Slavery. At this Conference he was
elected editor of the Westeiw christian
Advbeate, as successor to the venera•
ble Dv. Elliot.
In 1860 he was again in the Goner
al Conference, and won a great repu
tation as Chairman of the Committee
on Slavery. Ho was also re-elected to
the Western Christian Advocate. Be
was elected again to the General Con
ference in 1SO4; and was then duly
elected and ordained to the
. offiee of
Bishop of the E. Church. Since.
his election to the bishopric his histo
ry is familiar to the Ohm eh.
TERRIBLE EXPLOSION —One of the
most tremendous explosions of gun
powder that has ever occurred took
place at Cerrito, Province of San Pedro
de Rio Grande, Southern Btazil, on the
morning of the 2d of Santiary. The
Brazillian schooner Pluto had been re
ceiving a cargo of powder, by means
of the pontoon Quickstep, from a shore
magazine. In the three receptacles
there were in all 300 tons of gunpow
der. The Pluto blew up first, then
the pontoon, lastly the magazine. All
these were torn to fragments. A ten
der of the pontoon, lying near, disap
peared, an old pontoon, hauled ashore
at the distance of half a mile, rolled
over into the river and sank ; a bomb
flat•buat a mile away was submerged
by the waves. The schooner's anchor
was carried over an island ; the woods
near at hand were levelled, and at a
greater distance torn and splintered.
The arsenal buildings, and the Brazil.
lien monitors Para, Alagoas and Ceara
were damaged. At the magazine a
hole was blown out fifteen feet in
depth and sixty feet in diameter.—
Numbers of birds fell dead, and quan
tities of stunned and killed fish floated
ashore. Of nineteen persons, includ
ing the wife and daughter of the cap•
lain, on board the Pluto, not a vestige
has been found by searching parties
The cause of the explosion is unknown.
The disaster adds one more horror to
the records of the Paraguayan war.
THE STANTON FUND.—The memorial
fund contributed by the friends of the
Into Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of
War, for the relief and support of his
family, amounted at the time of the
last statement, made two or three days
:kgo, to $llO,OOO, lacking only $l,OOO
of the $150,000 originally proposed to
be raised. _This sum has been contrib•
utod as follows Philadelphia, $54,000;
New York, $52,000; Boston, $25,000
Washington, 615,000. No doubt the
$4,000 lacking when this report of the
fund was made has been raised by this
time. The fund will probably be con
solidated and invested in Government
securities.
The Cointnittee on Appropriation
has agreed to report against any ap•

The following letter was received
by a Committee of colored citizens of
Cincinnati.
WASIMIGTON, March 30, 1870
Accept thanks for the invitation
tendered me on behalf of rho Colored
citizens of Cincinnati, - to attend the '
celebration. My duties here will not
permit me to be present except by
good will and wishes. Almost a quar
ter of a century has passed since some
of yoU prdbably hoard me declare
(May, 1845) that all legal distinctions
betwemviedfviduals of the same cOpi-;
Ant Why on any shell eirehmstaceCs as
color, origin, and like, - aro- hostile_ to
the genius of our instittltions, and in
compatible With the true. theory of
American liberty; that true democra
cy makes no inquiry about the color
of the skin-or the place of nativity,' or
any other similar circumstance of con
dition, and that
,the, exclusion of the
eolored,penple, as a 'body, front the
elective franchise is incompatible with
true democratic principles. I congrat
ulate you that these principles have
been at length made part of the su
premo law of the land: - Many no
doubt would have been glad us I should
have been if the great work consum
mated by the ratification ,of the:
teenth Amendment: cotild have been
accomplished by the Stete'S through
an amendment of the State constitu
tions, and through appropriate State
legislation, but the delays and uncer
tainties prejudicial to every interest
inseparable from that mode of pro
ceedings seems to • neeessitatdo the
course act daily' adopted, not. does the
amendment impair the real rights' of
any State. It leaves the whole regu
lation of suffragetb the whole people of
each State, subject only to the funda
mental law that, the right of citizen to
: vote shall be denied or abridged on
'account of color, race or previous con
dition of servitude. It is to be hoped
that each State will so conform its
constitution and laws to this funda
mental law that no occasion may be
given to legislation by Congress. But
the best indication of' the wisdom as
well as justice of the amendment must
he found•in the conduct of that large
class of citizens whom you represent:
On the occasion to whichirl referred, I
venture to say that the best way to
insure the peaceful dwelling together
of the different races is the cordial lie
eiprocation of benefits, not the mutual
infliction of injuries, and I cannot give .
you better counsel than I offered then.
Go forward, havino t' perfect faith in
your own manhood and God's provi
dence, adding to your faith virtue, and
to virtue knowledge ; and to knowol-
edge patience. to patiencea temperance,
to temperance brotherly; kindness and
to brotherly kindness charity. Why
signalzc youiv . ri.joicing in the
rights secured
. under the Fifteenth
Amendment by urging urea Congress
prompt removal of all:political
imposed upon our fellow citi
zens by the Fourteenth Amendment,
so that through universal suffrage and
universal amnesty,peace, good will and
prosperity may be established through
out our country ? Every good man
must rejoice in the progress which the
colored citizens of the United 'States
have made in education, in religious
culture, and in the general improve
ment of their condition. All good
'inn mast earnestly desire their cop
tinned and accelerated progress in the
same direction. All public and • all
private inlet eNts will be promoted by
it, and it will insure at no distant day
cordial it cognition of their rights,
even from those of their fellow citizens
who have most earnestly opposed
them, No man can now be found
who would restore shivery. A few
years hence, if the Colored - men are
wise, it will be impossible to find a man'
who will avow himself in favor of de
nying or abridging their right to vote.
S. P. CURSE.
We call the attention of 'our
readers to Iho fact that the census ta
kes' will 'be around shortly, and will
submit the following as questions that
you will likely have to answer. Have
your answers ready so as nut to delay
the Assistant Marshal:
how old are you ?
\\There wore 3 7 0 u born, and how of
ten, and were you present on the oc
casion of your birth 7
Were you ever elected Inspcctiir of
Elections ? What was your majority,
and what did it cost you ?
Aro you a married person, and how
do you like it ?
Have you any children, and how
many measles have they had ?
Do you grow any corn, if so, how
much do you waste in making bread?
What is the cash value of a one dol
lar bill ?
Were your father and mother both
white men ? '
Can you stand on your head, and
how long? If a good while how much
loner if necessary ?
Have you any children married, it
so, how many ?
half an acre of ground will yield
ono hundred bushels of rota bogus,
how many glasses of lager will it take
to require a man to draw a bce•line?
If your family eats a ham in throe
days, how long will it take them to
eat a couple of hammers?
There aro a number of other ques
tions to be answered, which we omit
here, from the fact that they will sug
gest themselves to the minds Of the
marshals, just as soon as they think of
them.
