The last Carlisle Herald makes the broad assertion that theKokliers’ Conven tion which assembled in tills place, on the “Bth uit, was composed of “ drafted men and deserters.” “The Provost Mar shal's list of deserters, and the lists of drafted men,” had been secured “by a copperhead who hails from the upper end of the county,” and from these lists “a third was carefully made out, containing all the names of those who could he re lied upon to vote the copperhead ticket.” And “ this party” we are told by the Her ald, “ assembled in the Court House,” and subsequently “attempted to break up” the “ only soldiers' Convention worthy of the name.” We brand those assertions of the Her ald as mendacious misrepresentations and a premeditated personal insult to every soldier of Cumberland County. VV r e are astonished that any man, he his political views what they may, would flare to speak of one hundred and fifty honora bly discharged soldiers of Cumberland County as “ disorgnnisers,” “ drafted men” ami “deserters.” Hooking over the list of tlie men thus denounced, we recognize many of those who bore the brunt of battle, some of them for tlir.ee or four longyears. Many of them shed their blood in defense of the Union, and some of them left their limbs upon the battle field. They return home, meet in Con vention to express their views upon the issues of the day, and arc denounced as “deserters” by the disunion organ of Cum berland County, whose editor and pro prietor each kept himself out of the ar my, and saved his precious carcass from rebel bullets, by paying three hundred dollars to the government. We never be fore believed that the ingratitude and in solence of home-guard loyalty could go so Car us this. In behalf of the soldiers of Cumberland County we call upon the Herald to give •us the Mine of a single “ deserter” who took part in the proceedings of the Con vention. It must give us the name, or be branded with falsehood. If the Her *i/d knows of any “deserter” who par ticipated, there will be no trouble in tel ling the public who it was. If it did not know of anysueh, it told a willful and de liberate lie. It may bo true that eight or ten of the soldiers who attended the Convention were “ drafted men.'’ But What of that ? Is the man who responded to Hincoi.n’s remorseless conscription to be considered disgraced for ever? Is it more disgrace ful to have been drafted and gone into the field, than to have been drafted and bovyht themretuer clear / Will the editor and proprietor of the Herald answer us that question ? Thousands of drafted men nobly fell in battle. Are their memories to be hooted at by stay at homo patriots who were afraid to shoulder a musket ? What must be the feelings of the widow and tlie mother whose husband and son were torn from their homos by Lincoun's draft officers, and whose bones now min gle with the southern soil, when they see their memory sneered at by the cowardly miscreants who never left home except in Case of invasion, and then in an easter ly direction. This sneer of the Herald at the “ drafted men” of Cumberland County, will prove to be an unfortunate sneer for itself and its party. The draft ed men will unite as one man to resent this insult, not by violence, but by the peace ful exorcise of the ballot. They used the bullet against the rebels of the South, and they will not fail to use the ballot against their disunion trnducers at homo. And all the soldiers will not fail to re member that the Herald, the homo organ of General Geary, has spoken of them ns “ disorganizers" and “ deserters,” and re fused to publish the proceedings of their Convention, denouncing that Convention as 11 a disorderly mob in the interest of a few local copperhead politicians,” and saying “jee shall not disgrace our columns by giv ing it a place.” Ho who wrote the Herald's account of the Soldiers’ Convention wasa bold man, and had but little regard for his reputa tion,for truth. We dislike using harsh terms, but we wilt say what nearly every fair-minded prominent republican in this towfi will endorse, that the Herald’s re port is false in almost every particular.— It is false, as Colonel Henderson knows, that any lists of deserters and drafted men were secured. Ttis false that “ these men were notified by messengers hired for the purpose, to attend the Convention.” It is false that when the delegates readied the Hall “ it was more than half an hour after the time specified.” The delega tion from tiro upper end of the county ar rived in the oars at eleven o'clock and proceeded directly frSm the depot to the Hull. It is false that “ the Soldiers Con vention withdrew, notifying the dele gates that there would be an adjourned meeting at - o'clock.” Capt. Adair says iu his card that the call in the afternoon was for a meeting “ of the soldiers who supported Gen. Geary,” and it was a dis tinct and separate meeting, the name of- Gen. Geary not being even alluded to in the call for the Convention. With this meeting of eighteen very estimable gen tlemen in the Hall, in the afternoon, we have nothing to do, except to express our regret that they have placed themselves in the ludicrous position of claiming to be the Soldiers’ Convention. Wc mistake the character of Colonel Henderson and Colonel Parker very much, if they can conscientiouslychiim, before the Pittsburg Convention, to represent the soldiers of Cumberland County. The former gen tleman was defeated in the regular Con vention by an overwhelming vote; and in tins nice little Geary meeting none of the delegates received more than eighteen votes, while the regular delegates were elected by majorities ranging from one hundred to one hundred and thirty votes. Never \\’as there a more contemptible fraud sought to he perpetrated upon the people of Cumberland County than this manufactured report of the proceedings of the Convention which appeared in the Herald. The gentlemen are fully aware of the unpleasant position iu which the soldiers have placed them ; they see no escape from the dilemma but by the path of falsehood, and this path they' have re solved to follow, even if it leads them to shame and confusion. This is strong language, we know, but this glaring in justice to the soldiers has already created the most intense feeling all over this count.v, and they have demanded of us, personally and by numerous letters, that we characterize this fraud in the terms which its unblushing villainy demands. What has been said has been written in their behalf and at their request. .8 50 I 50 8 00 . 10 50 . 15 00 . 25 00 (.br/Me, Penu'it. (iKAUYS OIIGVX MAMGXJNG OIK NO I Tlie Harrisburg Telegraph , (lie well known organ of Gen. Gearv, the disu nion candidate for Governor, thus speaks of the soldiers of Cumberland couiitv : llonnti/ ,lumpers and Deserters tehu .Stunk /rum Fhjhttn./ with. Aspiriny to Represent the .Soldiers. The Patriot and Vnion utlumpl.s lu ereatu tlie lmpre.s.siua that thesuidJers of Cumberland coun ty, (Sen., (deary’s home, have sonl delegates to the tnusburg Military Convention inslriieted for It tester c’lymer, “ the soldiers' friend,” fur (inv entor. It will only r.eoulre a word of explana tion to show that there if us mean a trick m this attempt to delude the public as \yas the game cowardly practiced in Cumberland 'county to se cure the misrepresentation oflhe soldiers. The fuels in the case are substantially as follows; In accordance with a published call,a few days since some seventy-live or a hundred of the vet eran lighting until, survivors of the late Woody war to prevent the slaveholders 'destroying the CJovernmeut, met at Hhoem’s Hall, Carlisle, for the purpose of selecting delegates to the Pitts burg -Military Convention. In the meantime a Copperhead crew had asscmble.d at the Court House. Jt was made up ol bounty jumpers, de serters and blatant opposers -of file war, and amounted to fully ton people. As soon as that conclave laid arranged their plans those partici pating therein burned to Rneent's Platt and as sumed the lash of organising the soldier ■ assem bled there, it was a cowardly and miserable trick, entirely worthy of the reputation of Ilies ter clymor in connection with the soldiers, in whose interest it was played. After these Cop perheads and bounty jumpers had thus usurped the affairs of the real soldiers assembled in Ithcem's Hull, the Copperheads adjounted their meeting to ;j o’clock in the afternoon. In tlie meantime the soldiers assembled at ‘2. o’clock, or ganized a soldiers’ meeting and elected file fol lowing soldiers to represent the military men of Cumberland county in the Pittsburg Convention: Col, Parker, Capt.. Swartz, Capt. Henderson, Capt. Zimi, Capt, Jioyer. At ;i o'clock the Copperheads, bounty jumpers and deserters assembled, elected delegates, and passed a resolution 'ihstrd.cltng them to vote for Ktester Clymer ■“ as Lite sdldi.crs’ candidate for Governor.” This explains the whole trick, Tlie very itlea of instructing delegates to it soldiers’ convention to vote forpliester clymer Is' pre posterous of itself, and when these men show their faces among the scarred heroes who are to assemble at Pittsburg, they will be hooted from their presence, if hot Unveil from the city, as tricksters and impostors' umyorthy to associate with soldiers or come in contact with good citi zens. We ask f.\yo soldiers of Cumberland county and their frjpnds to read the above dastardly assault, and tu remember at the same time that it appears Gen. Gijary's organ, and of course was pub lished with his approbation, if not at his dictation. We have heard it asserted, indeed, that it is the production of his own pen. Let it be remembered too, that tlie Telegraph is owned by men who du ring tlie four years of the rebellion re mained at home, engaged iu contracts and plunder, and made princely fortunes out of tire necessities of tlie Government Its principal proprietor, the Hessian BERGJfjjR, was not only engaged in in numerable fat contracts, but ho was also Postmaster at Harrisburg, a position from which lie was recently removed because of his treasonable sentiments, and in re sponse to the unanimous desire of the people who transact business through that oilice. This is the creature whose unblushing impudence and unmitigated scpuudrelism prompts him to speak of the heroes of Cumberland county as “cop perheads, bounty-jumpers and deserters!” And this is the menial ydio suggests that tlie regular delegates from this county, on their arrival at Pittsburg, be " hooted from tbe I 'on veil lion,” and “ dri vcn.,from tlie city.” We know not wliethei the regular del egates to tlie Pittsburg Convention fiynn tliis county will be admitted to their IUKIt.H. A COWAIJDhY TRICK. seats or not, nor do we or the delegates themselves care. They are the only del egates from this county. If they are not admitted, it will be evidence that the Convention has been packed for an ob ject, and that object a base one. Cer tainly, the five young men named by the Telegraph, will not have the presump tion to appear in the Convention, after their inglorious defeat hero at homo. — Some of them at least have too much spirit to thus belittle themselves. For four years or more’ pilfering poli ticians have been making use of soldiers to assist them in their schemes of rob bery and villainy. But the soldiers are now at homo, and they can speak and vote without the fear of a whipporsnap per officer, or the frowns and threats of Washington officials. The shoddyites, contractors and tliiovos may rave and rant because of the obstinacy of the “boy’s in blue,” but this will not avail, for as certain as the sun rises on the 9th of Oc tober, just as certainly' will nine-tenths of the soldier boy's of Cumberland, at least, vote against and work against the " hero of Snickorsvillo.” They'have no confidence in Geary —no confidence in the corrupt crow that engineered his nom ination through the disunion State Con vention. They are opposed to negro equality, negro-suffrage, negro Bureaus, and disunion. When Lee’s army' sur rendered, they considered the war at an end and the Union restored, and they' re gard the man a traitor and liar who will deny’ those self-evident truths. Ask them to endorse the disunion schemes of that double-distilled traitor, Trad Stevens; ask them to say; amen to the .sentiment that the “ negro boro the palm in the late rebellion ;” ask them to assist to give the negro social equality and the ballot; ask them to join in a crusade against the Pres ident because of his efforts to restore peace, prosperity and union ! No, no—the miserable stay-at-homo cowards, who l made fortunes during the war, and built blocks of houses, every brick of which was wot with widow’s tears ami mou’s blood, do not know the soldiers if they expect them to endorse their hell-horn schemes. No true soldier, not one, can or will aid a party whose loaders’boldly announce disunion and negro-equality as their fundamental principles—as (he issues before t lie people. Go on, then, ye craven-hearted, thiev ing shoddyites, and abuse the soldiers ns much as yon please. Let Geary con tinue to dictate assaults upon the soldiers of his own county'; it will only’ hasten the downfall of the traitors who arc now assailing the Government, and will make the election of Hibster C'i.vmer don lily sure, A - VAKI>" THAT TAKES SO THR U. As the writer of the following card, which appeared in last week’s Herald, seems anxious to obtain a little newspa per notoriety, wc give him tire assistance of our columns in his laudable efforts to get into notice, and publish his commu nication entire. Eor the Herald. Carlisle, Ta., May JO, ism!. Mr. JCdifor.—' The local columns of the “ Volun teer,” contain an article headed “Scones in the Convention,” which mentions my name as hav ing announced an “abolition meeting” for the af ternoon. 1 fall to see what " abolitionism' 1 means at this late day, lifter slavery the only institu tion to which it was applied, Is now almost for gotten. The learned f/ei\(lcr/uih who reported for tlie Volunteer, either willfully n) or unintentionally misapplies, the temps I used in making the announcement. The call was lor those soldiers who supported Gen. Gearv. J am aware, Mr. Kditor, that the political wires were stoutly milled by our Democratic editorial brethren ana their able assistants, and as a re sult the heterogeneous mass gathered, and hv force, upset an organization properly formed, and which allowed them time to reach the Hall, had they so chosen, I do not suppose that the consdi-n/ionx gentle men at the head of the Volunteer would permit falsehoods to appear In its columns, and conse quently J make this correction. Certainly the gentlemen display a great deal bf energy in re porting the news for the public, and also in es tablishing an “ illustrated” in our midst. ,1, U. ADAIR. What a great fp.llpw “1" is, to bivsnre! “ /full to see,” —“The Uirip / lined” —“ I ant aware” — “I do not suppose,” — “I make this correction.” Wo venture the assertion that there is not, in all this community, an individual for whom tlie writer of this card has such unbounded admiration as l;e lias for “ I”. It would be fortunate, indeed, if similar feelings were entertained by others. It seems we are guilty of the terrible misrepresentation of making Captain Adair say “the hall had been rented for an Abolition meeting” when what he did say was that there would be a meeting of “ those soldiers who supported Gen. Gea ry." Tlie Captain is welcome to make as muelt as ho can out of this “distinction without a dillcrenoc.” If Geary isn't the abolition candidate, the candidate of tlie •party which lias abolished slavery, abol ished the Union, abolished tlie Constitu tion and abolished every tiling except pub lic plunder, then we would like to know who is. If it willsuitour fastidious young friend any better we will call tlie party with which he identifies himself the dis union, negro-equality party. We know not for whom tlie slur, 11 the learned gentleman who reported .for the Volunteer,” was intended, and have on ly to say that tlie remark comes with very bad grace from that source, as there is, perhaps, no one in this community who is attempting a more extensive business on a smaller capital r.f brains than this same conceited neophyte who sijeers so contemptuously at the learning of others. The assertion that “Hie lieterogeneou s mass,” which by the way was ceipposcd exclusively of honorably discharged sol diers, “ upset tlie organization” of tlie Convention “by force,” is simply false, and we are astonished that oven the bra ■ zen impudence of tlie Herald’s corres pondent would carry him so far. In tlie ■ Herald’s own report of the Convention, which was no doubt prepared by Capt. Adair who was Secretary of the Secession Convention, we find this statement:— “Col. It. ,M. Henderson asked the chair to put the question ' shall the organiza tion be regarded as permanent? 1 which war decided in the negative" Major Dorsheimcr was then elected permanent President, and was admitted so to ho elected by C'npt. Beatty, the temporary Chairman, wljo too],f his seat beside Maj. Horsheimer, us one of flic yb;e presidents, remained in the Convention, and voted for delegates to Pittsburg. Colonel Hen derson and-others also remained, recog nizing Major Horsheimer as Chairman of the meeting, and voting for Delegates to Pittsburg. It was only after they found thonyseivos so hopelessly in (he minority that they i,v ilb,d■£!'.' und held “ a meeting of the. HOidierr wheruppurtui (,rn Oe.ary." It was this "meeting," composed of eigh teen very respectable and Intensely " loy al” geiiUoinen.. which deputised one third of its ' number to attend the Pittsburg Convention as "delegates.” Wo cheer fully lot the Herald answer the misrep resentations of its own correspondent. The facts in regard to this Convention are before the people, who have a little more common sense and discrimination than some conceited young gentlemen are apt,to imagine they have. We are at a loss to know whether the latter clause of this communication is in tended to be witty or not, and would re commend our young friend, who seems ambitious to become a “ knight of the quill,” that in his future effusions ho fol low the example of Artcmus Ward and label his 11 goaks” in order that they may bo properly appreciated. The “ Illustra ted” will undoubtedly appear in due time, and since reading the card in the Herald f we have boon constrained to add to our collection of wood-cuts a portrait of that amiable animat known by the music of its voice and the length, of its burs. THE SOMMERS OF J'EIIRY IN COITNI'II.. In compliance with a call signed by several hundred soldiers of Perry county, the " boys in blue” assembled in Conven tion, in great numbers, at Bloomfield, on the 2(ith ult. We learn from the Perry County Democrat that " the Court House was crowded, and the enthusiasm unboun ded.” Col. .1. A, Stephens presided, as sisted by a large number of Vico Presi dents and Secretaries. Baring the ses sion of the Convention a delegation of old veterans of the war of ISI2 entered the hall, and were received and welcomed with loud huzzas. After the delivery of two or three short and patriotic addresses, the following resolutions wore reported from the committee and unanimously adopted : We, as honorably discharged soldiers who par ticipated iu the recent samminary war, and have now returned home It) llnd the Government stniggling against a traitorous fanaticism, which aims a death-blow at the restoration of the Union and which treats the Constitution as an unclean tinny, and dally oilers amedmcnls looking to the entire destruction of Constitutional freedom, having met inCoiivention to form ourselves into an organization, which will have for its object the defence of the principles for which wo dared the perils of the Held and for the. triumph of which three hundred thousand of our comrades died, are desirous to announce the creed which we will support nl the next October election and the candiflate under whoso chieftainship we in tend to be found at the Polios, Therefore be it 1. Jicsa/i-rtl, The’ohject of the war, now so hap pily ended, was declared by the resolutions of Congress, of July, istil, to be the defence and maintenance of the supremacy of the Constitu tion and the preservation of the Union with the dignity, equality and rights of the several Slates uiumpared. That with that object in view, we in common witli our gallant brethren, entered (in* army and aided in carrying the Old Flag, with not a single star obscure and not a stripe erased over many glorious battle fields, until victory crowned the contest and rebellion suc cumbed to the arms of the Union and not a trai tor foe was to ho found resislingthc Government of the Constitution and of our Fathers. The Con stitution tints has been maintained and the Union must now he unconditionally restored, and we hereby pledge ourselves as soldiers to sustain President Johnson in his wise, humane and pa triotic policy. Wo denounce as revolutionary ami wicked Hie schemes and legislation of the radicals, headed by Stevens and Sumner, who refuse the admission of loyal representatives, elected by tin* eleven .Southern States and the plan of reconstruction reported by the irrespon sible cable ofliucen, which violates the cardinal doctrines of a republic representative govern ment. /Wc adhere to the faith of our Fathers, that taxation without representation is tyranny. 2. Rrmlicil, That Congress has no right under the Constitution to prescribe the qualillcatlon of electors in the several States, but that the people ot the Stales respectively only have that privil ege. That to Congress belongs the Constitutional right for each House to judge of the election re turns and qualillcatfon of its own members, and when it fraijcends that boundary and undertakes to force upon any oft he tt'ntcs the right of negro suffrage, it violates the essential guarantees of the liberty of the citizens, and its acts' only tend to thesubversion of the reserved rights of the stales. J. Jicsolrcd, That we heartily endorse the veto messages of President Johnson and approve of his hold ami manly determination to stand be tween the people and the tyranny of a Congress, which loooks only to tlie prolongation of its own party power, irrespective of the interests of the country, if President Johnson carries out the good work he has begun and in the future as in Hie past, proves himself “ the tribune of the peo ple,’qind'we do not doubt but that ho will do U;his name will be associated m his.pry with that of the other Andrew of Tennessee and imorlallty M’lll crown his memory with I lie plaudits of the good in all future time. 1. Jtc.mlvcd, That as white sokliors, wo minuet support any party which favors ncf/ro suffrage ami negro oquaiity—that refuses to admit new territories while the word white remained in the declaration of qualification of voters—which sympathises with negro interests in preference to the cause of the pom l of our own color—which wastes all its time m providing for the Freedman and cannot bo induced to equalize our bounties, and believing that. Jou* W. Geary, the Radical Candidate for Govcrnpr is a follower of That!. Stevens, and is fully commuted to the cause of tlie Disunlonists in Congress and is the eueiqy of the conciliatory policy of the President, we can not and will not support him at the polls. We call upon our fellow soldiers everywhere to re member, tljat the parly that Geary is a candi date of has rdpelUcdly declared in Congress, through its press ami on the stump, tFiatl'hc wq'r could not have beed ended but Jor the bravery and assistance of the blacks, giving to the negro the credit which alone was merited by our while soldiers a. Itr.Holvcd, That we believe, that Hon. HIES TKR CLYMEII, the Democratic Candidate for Governor, holds the same sentiments in relation to Federal affairs, that we do ; that he supports the administration of the President in the great which have characterized it; that lie is a goiitlerqan of unsullied private char acter and approved statesmanship, end during the whole period of the war, as proVdd hy pb; Senatorial record, was the firm friend fo the soh tilers In the field, voting for an increase of pav and protection of Ills family in his absence, and while demagogues and loyal stay-at-home patri ots only talked, ho acted by contributing his own means to the support of our Interests. We now declare our determination to vole for him at the* election. ' (j.

WINFIF.I.H SCOTT. Bob’s House, West Point, May 29 i Q/j(3 .Lieutenant General Winlicldfecott diod’at his house to-day at five minutes past 11. He departed peacefully. Ho BtniKKle Indicated the passage of the old hero’s soul from its earthly tenement.— Although his demise was anticipated yet death was comparatively sudden. Upon his arrival hero on thocveningofthelOth inst M by special boat from ork, it was observed that he was very feeble.— Unoii descending from the carnage ho tottered a little and had to pause upon every step as ho mounted to the hotel. After a few days, however, he rallied con siderably, and as late as .Saturday, at half-past two, was out to the library and the village riding. The same day he wrote some letters to friends : but a tow days before he requested Gen. Collnm, commandant of the post, to indite a letter for him, which he franked himselt, though in an almost illegible hand. Ho appeared to suffer Irom no specific .lUlTneht. bht rather a general decline of physical strength. His mind was clear in the last. So little expeetation.„was there of his immediate demise that his daughter Mrs. Hoyt, of Now York, who had been staying with him for some days, left there for home yesterday.— Last night the General was taken with n chili, and the assistant surgeon of the post, Hr. Marsh, was immediately sum moned. Even then there appeared to be no danger, and at nine o’clock this morning Dr. Marsh assured General Collnm that he had apprehension of im mediate dissolution : but in a short time it became evident that the eventful and iß&fttWifckpf the patriot soldier was draw ing toa-ciose."' The chaplain, Rev. J. A. French, was called in and taking the General’s hand •recited a prayer. Though quite conscious and cognizant that death was upon him the power of speech was gone, but the dying soldier pressed the hand of the clergyman and bowed his head repeated ly in'token of his consciousness of the last of the solemn rites-which Mr. French was performing according to the rules of the Episcopal church. At precisely five minutes after eleven, quietly ns if a slumber, the patriot whose life has been so iutimatly associated with tlie military history of his country, passed away. General Scott had only been confined to bed for tiie last three days, but. during that time his strength was gradually fail ing and he seemed to have a presentiment that this was ids last visit to West Point, in which institution lie took an intense interest and at which lie spent every sum mer for tlie last forty years. When com ing from the boat on the 10th of May, ho remarked to a friend that ho had come to tlie old academy to die, and in conver sation with Captain Boynton a few days ago, lie replied to some remark concern ing his visit to West Point that lie came there to be buried. It seems appropriate that the great military academy of the na tion should be the dying place of the na tion’s oldest soldier’ The funeral took place at one o’clock on Friday last, attended by a grand mili tary display, and a great concourse of eminent personages from Washington and elsewhere.

Ifevor In history there was an opportunity fora body of men to have made their mark, it was furnished to the Joint Reconstruction Com mittee of Congress, to whoso deliberation was re ferred the noble mission of restoring harmony to their distracted country. The eyes of the world were upon them, and philosophers and states men everywhere were, for a time, attending their deliberations with the most Intense Interest. It was a great work, and It called for giant hands to dolt. To crush out the rebellion by main force was comparatively an easy task. It required only the persistent application of the maxima of attainable force, ami a sufllcicnt time being giv en, the work would be done. This was but the triumph of material force, which, even In its most stupendous achievements, never attains the ele vatipn of those superior contests where moral forces alone'arc involved. The conquests of peace are greater, more noble, more sublime, than these Qf physical force ; and far more dlth eult. The cqnlcst ofcoiqmou-placc materialism ended with the surrender of Roc. Then began the mission of the statesman. In considering tho results of the labors of this committee I confess to an Immense disappoint ment. The country had hoped that they would have risen above the petty partisan ideas of the day. and consider the great questions entrusted to them in a spirit commensurate with their mag nitude. But instead of this, we have witnessed from time to time, ns thoiesultof their deliber ations, a series of the most miserable measures' put forth by them, or under their auspices, which shows aii entire inability on their part to grasp thogreatquostiaa'involvod'iu'thc restoration of the Union, and an inability to raise themselves above the pitiful expedients of party.*’The Re construction scheme which they will finally pass will literally amount to nothing; and after nil their talk of principle, will be a miserable com promise to save their party from ann.hllalion. Thaddcus Stevens, won new laurels In the House of Representatives the other day. In a moment ofimpotent rage at the prospect of some of his follow dlsuuionlsts being turned away from the public crib, ho lashed himself into a furious pas sion, and insolently threatened with impeaeh ment'all'gdvdmmcnt officials who refused to fall down ami worship the golden calf of Radicalism. His coarse and brutal assault upon the President ami the Secretary of the Treasury caused a faint blivdi of shame to mantle the brow of one or two of his deluded followers, and, under its influence, a gentle ripple of dissent, fora single moment, disturbed the waters. But, in an instant, the awful frown of the Buckshot hero met thfc tremb ling Rumps who hod modestly lisped out their disapproving words, and qulokly brought them back to their senses. His triumph was complete* He played the bully and all succumbed. And this ia the man, wlio, when a few sturdy farmers of Pennsylvania frowned upon him, grew pale with fear, and, overwhelmed with terror, jumped from the back window of the Capitol at Harra burg I Tho proposition to relit the galleries of the Sen ate and House ofHoprcsentatives meets with lit tle opposition. On the most Radicaal side a thorough renovation is accepted as necccssary,— In fact, since the froedmen have learned that they, with “ all the rest of mankind,” can have free access thereto; and listen to the debates, the denizens of the Frecdmen’s village have made It a sort of “ resting place,” to enjoy not only the proceedings, but the mostprofound slumber. The result may be readily guessed. But few, who are careful of their persons, and have an abhorrence of the most sickening of all vormine, resort to the galleries. Those who do, suffer, of course. It is, therefore, necessary that-a thorough mipva tion shall take place; and it is proposed to. have the galleries not only cleaned, in the common ac ceptation ol the term, but upholstered and fitted up anew. All the old seats are to be torn up and burned, and new, neat and commodious ones are to take their places. For awhile, therefore, the frequenters of'the galleries will have a plesant time after this improvement is made; hut until this change be made, it would be quite as well for all who do not wish to he- brought “up to the scratch’’ to steer clear of “ the negro quarters.’’ To tell the plain truth, the hallsofthoSonate and House of Representatives are lousy. The enemies of the President have boasted that they cured nothing for him, or for the attempted exercise of any power ho might assume to possess. But they Ipivcevidently “wakci( uf» the wrong ■man,’ uni] now begin to see the consequence re sulting from their course. The President is pre paring for the fall election—there is no longer a s douhl on the subject. To a Pennsylvania mem ber who remonstrated with him upon removing a tried Republican from odlee, he replied, “lam for rotation, and this is hut the beginning of what X mean to do.” But he rotates Radicals out and Conservatives In. The wheel is sot in motion for the purpose; of pruiaing cion u Lite Republicans in the -10th Congress. There Is no longer • any 'at tempt at concealment aiqong the'President’* friends OU this point; they threaten Com gross, if i( does not recede, that the Opposition will be permitted to gain control of llie next Con gress. The issue is already made up. The Presi dent demands the instant admission of the rebel States to representation, and Congress asks fur theirguarautles. Th® decision rests with the poo. pic.
