STENGER, his pets, his pimps and hire

THE "great war Governor" wants to go
to Congress so badly that he is willing to
creep in at the back door, and fur this
purpose he has notified Congressman-elect
Yocum, that he will contest his seat.—
Shame !
RUMORS from Washington last week
were to the effect that Secretary Devens
had tendered his resignation and desired
to retire from the cabinet. The report is

his portfolio.

WE have not heard half a dozen voters
of any party in this county express regret
at the result of the recent election for
Congress in this district. There never is
much sympathy for a defeated ingrate.—
Perry County Democrat.
HON. R. W. MACKEY, whose serious
illness we noticed week before last, we are
pleased to learr, is convalescing and is now
considered out of danger. The Republi

active men as ex. State Treasurer Mackey.
BON. J. K. MOOREHEAD, well known
to many of our citizens, and one of the
members of the Penitentiary Commission,
fell on the icy pavement, in front of his
residence, in Pittsburgh, on Sunday last,
breaking one of his arms, and sustaining
other injuries which endangers his life.

Hon. H. G. Fisher, and says that the ru

Mr. Stenger is not one of those who be

the back door. This is left to the "war

THE report started, a few days ago, that
Charlie Ross had been found in the family
of a half-breed Indian, in the northern
part of this State, like all others relating
to this unfortunate boy, proves untrue
Mr. Ross visited the boy, but says the lad
is four or five years older than his son
would be, and does not bear the slightest
resemblance to him.

said to have been told by Gen. Cameron
io an interview with Eli Perkins, and pub
lashed in the New York Sun, which, if
true, is very damaging to Wade Hampton,
Governor of South Carolina, and U. S
Senator elect from the same State. The
story goes that Col. Cameron, a brother of
Simon Cameron, when wounded and cap
tured, in the first Bull Run battle, was
shot to death with a carbine in the hands
of Wade Hampton, then an officer in the
rebel army. The Democratic papers are
trying to clear this prominent member of
their party from this charge of cold blood

Senator Blaine on Election Frauds.
James G. Blaine delivered the promised speech,
on Wednesday last, in the 15 - aited States Senate,
on the resolutions offered by him directing an in
vestigation into alleged frauds and outrages in the
recent elections, upon which occasion ho said :
Ma. PRESIDENT :—The pending resolution was
offered by me with a two-fold purpose in view•
First, to place on record In a definite and authen
tic form the frauds and outrages by which some
recent elections were carried by the Democratic
party in the Southern States. Second, to find if
there be any method by which a repetition of these
crimes against a free ballot may be prevented.
We know that 108 Representatives in Congress
were recently chosen in the States formerly slave
holding, and that the Demi:senate elected 101 or
possibly 102, and the Republicans four or possibly
five. We know that thirty-five of these Represen
tatives were assigned to the Southern States by
reason of the colored population, and that the en
tire political power thus founded on the numbers
of the colored people has been seized and appro
priated to the aggrandizement of its own strength
by the Democratic party of the South.
The issue thus raised before the country, Mr.
President, is not one of more sentiment for the
rights of the negro--though far distant be the day
when the rights of any American citizen, however
black, or however poor, shall form the mere dust
of the ballance in any controversy ; nor is the issue
one that involves the waving of the "bloody shirt," '
to quote the elegant vernacular of Democratic
vituberation ; the issuu has taken a far wider
range, and that is, whether the white voter of the
North shall be equal to the white voter of the
South in shaping the policy and fixing the destiny
of this country.
Let use illustrate my meaning by comparing
groups of States of the same representative strength
North and South. Take the States of North Car
olina, Mississippi and Louisianii. They send sev
enteen Representatives to Congress. Their aggre
gate population is romposed of 1,035,000 wh tea
and 1,224,000 colored; the colored being nearly
200,000 in excess of the whites. Of the seventeen
Representatives, then, it is evident that nine were
apportioned to these States by reason of their col
ored population, and only eight by reason of their
white population ; and yet in the choice of the en
tire seventeen Representatives, the colored voters
had no more voice or power than their remote
kindred on the shores of Senegambia or on the
Gold Coast. The 1,035,000 white people had the
sole and absolute choice of the entire seventeen
Representatives. In contrast, take two States in
the north--lowa and Wisconsin—with seventeen
representatives. They have a white population
of 2,247,000--considerably more than double the
entire white population of the three Southert States
I have named. In lowa and Wisconsin, there
fore, it takes 132,000 white populatior. to send a
Representative to Congress, but in South Caro
lino., Mississippi and Louisiana every 60,000 white
people send a Representative. In other words,
60,000 white people in those Southern States have
precisely the same political power in the govern
ment of the country that 132,000 white people
have in lowa and Wisconsin.
Take another group of seventeen Representa
tives from the south and from the north. Georgia
and Alabama have a white population of 1,158,-
000 and a colored population of 1,020.000. They
send seventeen Representatives to Congress, of
whom nine were apportioned on account. of the
white population and eight on account of the
colored population. But the colored voters are
not able te .choose a single Representative, the
white Democrats choosing the whole seventeen.
The four northern States, Michigan, Minnesota,
Nebraska and California, have seventeen Repre
sentatives, based on a white population of 2.250,-
000, or almost double the white population of
Georgia and Alabama, so that in these relative
groups of States we find the white man south ex
ercises by his vote doutla the political power of the
white man of the north.
Let us carry the comparison to a more compre
hensive generalization. The eleven States that
formed the confederate gpvernment had by the last
census a population of 9,500,000, of which in
round numbers, 5,500,000 were white and 4,000,000
were colored. Of this aggregate population sev
enty-three Representatives in Congress were ap
portioned to those States—forty two or forty-three
of which were by reason of the white population,
and thirty or thirty-one by reason of the colored
population. At the recent election the white
Democracy of the south seized seventy of the sev
enty-three districts, and thus secured a Demo
cratic majority in the next house of Representa
tives. Thus it appears that throughout the
States that formed the late confederate govern
ment, 75,000 whites—the very people that re
belled against the Union--are enabled to elect a
Representative to Congress, while in the loyal
States it requires 132,000 of the white people that
fought for the Union to elect a Representative.
In levying every tax, therefore, in making every
appropriation of money, in fixing every line of
public policy, in decreeing what shall be the fate
and fortune of the Republic, the confederate sol
dier south is enabled to cast a vote that is twice
as powerful and twice as influential as the vote of
the Union soldier north.
But the white men of the south did not acquire
and do not hold this superior power by reason of
law and justice, but in disregard and defiance of
both. The fourteenth amendment to the Consti
tution was expected to be and was designed to be
a preventive and corrective of all such possible
abuses. The reading of the clause applicable to
the case is instructive and suggestive. Hear it:
"Representatives shall be apportioned among
the several States according to their respective
numbers, counting the whole number of persons
in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But
when the right to vote at the election for the
choice of Electors for President and Vice Presi
dent of the United States, Representatives in Con
gress, the executive and judicial officers of a State,
or the members of the Legislature thereof is de
nied to any of the male inhabitants of such State,
being twenty-one years of age and citizens of the
United States, or in any way abridged, except for
participation in rebellion or other crimes, the ba
sis of representation therein shall be reduced in
the proportion which the number of ouch male
citizens shall bear to the whole number of male
citizens twenty-one years of age in such State."
The patent, - undeniable intent of this provision
was that if any class of voters were denied or in
any way abridged in their right of suffrage, then
the class so denied or abridged should not be
counted in the basis or representation.
The poltical power appropriated by Southern
Democrats by reason of the negro population
amounts to thirty-flve Representatives in Con
gress. It is massed almost solidly, and offsets the
great State of New York; or Pennsylvania and
New Jersey together; or the whole of New Eng
land; or Ohio and Indiana united; or the com
bined strength of Illinois, Minnesota, Kansas,
California, Nevada, Nebraska, Colorado and
Oregon. The seizure of this power is wanton
usurpation ; It is a flagrant outrage; it is violent
perversion of the whole theory of Republican gov
ernment. It inures solely to the present advan
tage, and yet, I believe, to the permanent dig:
honer of the Democratic party. It is by reason
of this trampling down of human rights, this ruth
less seizure of unlawful power, holds the popular
branch of Congress to-day, and will in less than
ninety days have control of this body also, thus
grasping the entire legislative department of the
government through the unlawful capture of the
Southern States.
And this injustice is wholly unprovoked. I
doubt if it be in the power of the most searching
investigation to show that in any southern State
during the period of Republican control any legal
voter was ever debarred from the freest exercise
of his suffrage. Even the revenges which would
have leaped into life with many who despised the
negro were buried out of sight with a magnanimi
ty which the ":,uperior race" fail to follow and
seem reluctant to recognize. I hear it in many
quarters and read it in the papers that in the late
exciting election in Massachusetts intimidation
and bulldozing, if not so rough and rancorous as
in the south, were yet as widespread and effective.
I have read, and yet I refuse to believe, that the
distinguished gentlemen who made an energetic
but unsucceesful canvass fur the Governorship of
that State has endorsed n.nd approved these
charges, and I have accordingly made my resolu
tion broad enough to include their thorough inves
tigation. lam not demanding fair elections in
the South without demanding fair elections in the
North also. But venturing to speak for the New
England States, of whose laws and customs I know
something, I dare assert that in the late election
in Massachusetts, or any of her neighboring Com
monwealths, it will be imposeihle to hod even one
case where a voter was driven from the polls,
where a voter did not have the fullest, fairest,
freest opportunity to cast the ballot of his choice,
and have it honestly and faithfully counted in the
returns.
But whenever a feeble protest is made against
such injustice as I have described in the South,
the response we get comes to us in the form of a
taunt, "What are you going to do about it?" and
"How are you going to help yourselves?" This is
the stereotyped answer of defiance which entrench
ed wrong always gives to inquiring justice, and
those who imagine it to be conclusive do not know
the temper of the American people. Men who
have eared little, and affected to care less, fdr the
rights or the wrongs of the negro suddenly find
that vast momentary and commercial ieterests,
great questions of revenue, adjustments of tariff,
vast investments in manufacture, in railways, and
in mines, are under the control of a Democratic
Congress whose majority was obtained by depriv
ing the negro of his rights under a common Con
stitution and summon laws. Men who have ex
pressed disgust with the waving of bloody shirts,
and have been offended with talk about negro
equality are beginning to perceive that the pend
ing question of to-day relates more pressingly to
the equality of WlAit.e men under this government,
and that, however, careless they may be about the
rights or the wrongs of the negro, they are very
jealous and tenacious about toe rights of their
own race, and the dignity of their own firesides
and their own kindred
I know something of public opinion iu the north.
I know a great deal about the views, wishes, and
puposes of the Republican party of the nation.
Within that entire great organization there is nut
one man whose opinion is entitled to be quoted
that (toes not desire peace, and harmony, and a
patriotic and fraternal union between the north
and the south. This wish is spontaneous, instinc
tive, universal throughout the northern States;
and yet, among men of character and sense, there
is surely no need of attempting to deceive our
selves as to the precise truth, The war with all
its costly sacrifices, was fought in vain unless equal
rights for all classes be established in all the States
of the Union. And now, in words which are those
of friendship—however differently they may be
accepted—l tell the men of the south here on this
floor, and beyond this chamber, that even if they
could strip the negro of his constitutional rights,
they can never permanently maintain the inequal
ity of white men in this nation; they can never
make a white man's vote in the south doubly as
powerful in the administration of the government
as a white man's vote in the north.
In a memorable debats in the House of Com
mons, Mr. Maccaniay reminded Daniel O'Connell,
when he was moving for repeal, that the English
Whigs had endured calumny, abuse, popular fury,
loss of position, exclusion from Parliment, rather
than the great agitator himself should be less than
a British subject; and Mr. Maccaulay warned him
that they would never suffer him to be more. Let
me now remind you that the government under
whose protecting flag we sit to-day sacrificed myr
iads of lives and expended thousands of millions
of treasure that our countrymen of the south
should remain citizens of the United States, having
equal personal rights and equal political privileges
with all other citizens. And I venture, now and
here, to warn the men of the south, in the exact
words of Maccaulay, that wo shall never suffer
them to be more.

CTIRISTIVEA_S
Each succeeding year makes plainer the fict that there is a rapidly
growing taste for Holiday Gifts, combining usefulness with beauty and
correct taste.
STRAWBRIDGE & CLOTHIER
Have made very extensive preparations' for supplying the prevailing
taste, and have now on daily exhibition the largest stock of useful and
beautiful articles ever placed on sale in Philadelphia. An examination
will convince any one that almost every department of the house contains
articles more appropriate for Christmas offerings than gifts of silver or
gold.
All who find it inconvenient to visit Philadelphia, are cordially invited
to make their selections and order their goods through our
Mail Order Department.
Of late the business transacted through this Departmeu t has been so
heavy as to necessitate the employment of additional help, but the perfect
system in practice enables us to promptly answer every requ3st for sam
ples, and to fill at once every order in the moat satisfactory manner.
Below we give a necessarily brief list of articles especially adapted for
Holiday Gifts.
Initial Handkerchief's. •
Hemstitched Handkerchiefs.
Colored Border Handkerchiefs,
Fancy Silk Handkerchiefs.
Handkerchiefs in Fancy Boxes.
(For ladies, gentlemen and children.)
Gentlemen's Silk and Cashmere
Mufflers.
Ladies' Embroidered Collars and
Cuffs.
Ladies' Necties and Bows.
Ruffling and Scarfs.

(For ladies, gentlemen and children.)
Gents.' Collars and Cuffs.

Ladies' Coats and Suits.
Twenty-Five Cases

Especially Adapted for CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
Our greatly enlarged store room, this season, enables us to comfortably
accommodate the many hundreds of our customers who may have here
tofore found difficulty in getting waited upon at our crowded counter's.
The price of e; erything is guaranteed to be absolutely the lowest.

CLOAKS.
Our success in filling the wants of those wanting an outside covering is not one of . luck, but o
study, constant inquiry and long experience in the making as well as selling these garments. No
part of our house requires such untiring watchfulness, no kind of merchandise is so worthless when
out of style as a cloak—no department is more active in the season of selling.
The materials used this season are Diagonals, in various widths, Matelasse, Fur Black Beavers,
Silk Matelasses and Plain Silks; also, a rough-faced material called Camel's Hair, which is new, but
not very pleasing to the eye.
The articles used for Trimmings are Velvet, Oros Grain, Grass Fringe, Fancy Gimps and Braids.
As to shapes, the new things are of the Mantle order, but with a sleeve much more comfortable and
yielding than garments of this character have been heretofore; the general effect, too, is more grace
ful and pleasing. The Sacque, though, retains its old popularity, and is bound to be the leader with
the majority. In shape it differs but little from rast season.
CHILDREN'S CLOAKS, from the smallest size up, have our best attention. They are made of
Blue and Brown Beaver, Matelasse and Fancy Cloths, and cost from $4 00 upward.
SHAWLS.
The great variety of styles, materials, colors and weights wanted in a Shawl for different seasons
and occasions,requires a most extensive stock to be able to suit even a majority of consumers. We
are in condition now to suit more than a majority, having the greatest collection of staples, as well as
novelties, in this line ever shown in Philadelphia—including even the rich fabrics of India, where
years are often occupied in producing one Shawl.
No department has received more personal attention than the Shawls, the buyer having visited
Europe during the summer, and not only bought very largely of ready-made, but ordered made many
styles which could not be procured otherwise. Those having a taste for the novel as well as beauti
ful in Shawl's, should look through our collection.
