Elections wore hold on the Oth hist., in
twelve States. The result, although not
what wo hoped for, is by no means dis
couraging to the Democracy and their
Conservative allies.- They have lost noth
ing, but made an important gain in one
Btate, whore the Radicals exhausted all
their means, lawful and unlawful, to re
tain their ill-gotten and shamelessly
abused power.
MA.BV.nANI), which has been trampled
in the dust under the lion heel of despo
tism for live years past, has gloriously
routed her oppressors, and is again in re
ality as well as in name a free State. In
Haltimorc city, where the tyranny of the
Radical Police Commissioners was exer
cised with such a high hand as to render
a fair election almost impossible, the Con
servatives hove .'achieved a signal tri
umph, carrying all the Senatorial and
Legislative Districts of the city, and the
two Congressmen. Of the four members
of Congress in the State, the Democrats
elected three, and the negro party one,
Kv-Goy. Thomas. The next Legislature
will stand as follows: Senate, IG Demo
crats, SDisuniouists; House of Delegates,
oil Democrats to 21 Disunionists. Tho
presiding olllcer of the Senate, Lieuten
ant Governor Cox, will also act with the
Democracy. The Disimionists only car
ry four counties in the State. This is re
liable, and there will be no change from
these figures. A U. S. Senator will bo
elected this winter—a gain.
Delaware remains true as steel, ir
spite of till the ctlbrU of the Radicals to
prostitute her to their base designs.—
Sniilslmry has been re-elected Governor
liy an increased majority, and Nicholson
returned to Congress. Legisla
ture Democratic in both Houses.
Sew York.— The majority for Fenton,
Disunion candidate for Governor, is sta
ted at 14,308. The Congressional delega
tion stands as at present—ll Democrats
to 20 Disunionists. The Legislature is
disunion in both Houses. Hoffman. the
candidate of the Democracy for Gover
nor, had 47,200 majority in Now York
city, and i 1,357 in Kings county. No
doubt lie is the legally elected Governor
Ilf (he .State, but is swindled out of the
place by fraud. The river counties gave
majorities for the Disunionists that show
fraud beyond question. Thousands of
imported Pennsylvanians voted in all
these-counties, just as thousands ofKew
Yorkers voted for Geary in Pennsylva
nia on the !)th of October,
Kansas. —The Disunionists elected
their Governor by some 15,(1110 majority
and have also a majority in both branch
os of the Legislature. Our former cili
zen, James M’Dowell, Esq., (of West
Pennsboro township,) was the Democrat
ic candidate for Governor.
Missouri. —The Disunion majority in
this State is about 21,0110. Hogan, Dem
ocrat, is defeated for Congress in the First
District —a gain of one member to the
Disunionists. The Legislature is Radi
cal.
Michigan'.— The Disunion majority
;>il,uon, Tlio entire Congressional delega
tion (six members,) belong to the Dis
imionlHta.
Nkw Jkksby.—With the aid of a coup
le thousand roughs from Philadelphia,
the Disunioniats carried New Jersey by
some 2,000. The Democrats elected two
of the four Congressmen. Doth Houses
of the Legislature are Disunion, which
secures the election ot a Radical U. fo.
Senator.
Jr,l,iNOis. —Disunion majority in Illin
ois about 55,000, Both Hmisua Disunion

Minnesota. —Disunion majority some
10*000. Both members of Congress are

Uisuniouists to G Democrats in the Sen
ate, and 37 Disunioni.sts to 10 Democrats
in the House. .
aiASSAiimtSETTS.— The Disunion vic
tory in Massachusetts iscomplete. Among
Us trophies are two negro Representatives
to the State Legislature—Charles L.
Mitchell and Kdward G. Walker —elected
from Boston and Charlestown, by deci

jsgg"Some New York Darkies are mak
ing arrangements to test in the Supreme
Court their right to vote under the civil
rights bill. Thatis whatlhe bill was pas
sed for by tiie Bump Congress, but no law
making power is visited with authority
to pass such an act, affecting as it does
the whole foundation of the' republican
system, and no court is competent to
make an affirmative decision ponding up
on the people. The question of admitting
a whole race to full political privileges is
one that requires and must have the full,
free and universal concurrence of tire
people of the Union. The people of New
York and Massachusetts may grant suf
frage to negroes, so far as local and State
officials are concerned, but such -voters
have no right to vote for Federal officers.
If such votes are counted for President
and Vice President, it amounts to a viola
tion of the principle mentioned.

r (ho iniquitous apportionment of
Congressional districts. they have again
sticceetloil iu electing a large majority of
■Congressmen. Tiro villainy of this ap
portionment will he seen in a single
glance at the vote pollcil. The Demo
cratic party of Pennsylvania pollctl 2111,-
000 votes for Congressio'nal candidates;
and yet only six Democratic Congress
men are elected, from which it will be
soon that it requires the enormous num
ber of 48,500 votes to elect a Democratic
member of Congress. The Republican
Congressional vote was about 002,1)00, up
on which they elected eighteen members
of Congress, which fact shows that it rc
quires onti/ 10,70!) rotes to elect a <lisunion
Hamper. On a fair apportionment, the
popular vote as east, this fall would give
the Democracy eleven members and (lie
Disuniouists thirteen members. Itisnot
at all strange that the Democracy should
be overwhelmed, when, to elect a Ilopre
sentative in Congress, (hey are required
to eastthree limes ns many votes as are
required to elect a Radical Representa
tive. This was the very object the radi
cals had .in view when the last apportion
ment bill was passed. It was intended
to perpetuate their Ijold on ill-gotten pow
er at the sacrifice of justice, honor and or
dinary political generosity ; and it is their
intention to-day to forever exclude the
.Democratic; masses from an honest repre
sentation in Congress, and thus to enable
the Disunion leaders to perpetuate their
usurpation of power. It is well that Dem
ocrats should look at tins question in its
true light, in. order that they may bo
nerved to yet greater exertions, before
they shall have been bound hand and

The Philadelphia Ar/c contains a ver;
able article on the infamous manner i
which tills State is apportioned in its Coi;
grcssioual
which wo transfer to our columns
Tho lute election in tills State, when viewed in
detail, shows in bold relief the shameless hypo
crisy ofthe Radical party when tliey talk ot the
sacred rights of tho majority. In the recent elec
tion of Pennsylvania 503,000 voles - have been pol
led for members of Congress. ()f these, the Radi
cal candidates received :»02tkM. There are twenty
fourmembers of Congressin the Stale, each ol
whom repi - (*sonts about 21.70 J of these votes. Iho
dillerence between the total Radical vote find
the total Democratic vote for members ol C'on
uross Is about ll,oou. For this 11,000 the Radicals
might Justly claim one member more than tho
Democrafs'upon (he ground of numerical snpe
vlorltv, ami thus the representation of tho .State
in the Forlhdh Congress should, by the voice of
the uoonio, Stand thirteen Radieals and eleven
Democrats. Itreallv stamls eighteen Radicals
and six Democrats. To view these llgnrcs Irom
the standpoint of move numbers, it is stUl more
1 ‘daring; for :D2,nm) vote* they gel eighteen mew-
Viovs tbvT.il/HWlvotcsweget six memhevs. And
to elect eighteen Radieals to Congress from Penn- |
sylvanla requires hut KJ.SOU votes for each, whilst
to elect six Democratic members to Congress, re
quires is,. - jt)o votes for each. Those are stubborn
tacts, shown by tho figures. This result Is brought
about bv the infamous legislation enacted by
Radical 'legislators at Harrisburg to maintain
and perpetuatetheir power. The Legislature Is
carried by the same outrageous system of gerry
mander. Tho total vote polled inFhiladelphia is
103.000. Wo have eighteen members in the lower
House: this gives a ratio of 0,72*2 votes for each
member. Tho Radical vote is 01,200, the Demo
erntic vote -18,800, making a (UiVorcncoof.vlw vote?
or 222 votes loss than the number necessary '
elect one member. Upon these llgures tho me
mrsoftiu* lower House from this city should stand
eu Radicals to eight Democrats. It really stands
ourtnun Radicals to lour Democrats.
Tills Is the manner in which the Radicals apply
ho mujoritv principle to Pennsylvania, and slide
the opinions and wishes of the people. Thosame
men who applauded the registry laws, hy winch
nine-tenths of the white men of Maryland, and
West Virginia, and Tennessee, and Missouri, arc 1
degraded to the position of slaves and serfs, up- 1
hold the present district system in Pennsylvania,
under which the Democratic element is prevent- 1
o.d from having a proper influence at either liar- I
rishurg or Washington. Tlie majority principle
when it runs in the ruts and grooves ol Radical- 1
ism is pot mil enough to uproot State authority,
nullify the niu-inost guarantees of the Constitu
tion,deny the people of a Siule’represcntatton in
Congress'; hut when it rims in anot her and u dif
ferent direction, is a rope of sand, which they can
and do break whenever it suits their pleasure.
There is danger in this practice of the Radicals.
If persisted in, it will lead to a total overthrow ol
iho constitutional form of government, and any
party that can hold power by force will do so.—
The right or wrong of a question will have no part
in determining it. Civil rights and the security
ofllfouiul property will be in the hands of men
having but one idea. Unit of retaining power m
despite of the w.il oft ho majority. In the condi
tion ofMoxico, rent and torn by faction, a prey to
military usurpers and foreign despots, can be seen
a picture of what the United States will be if the
Radicals are allowed, under the deceptive cry of
the majority must rule, to subvert this constitu
tional form of government, and introduce in Its
place one founded upon the minority principle.
TUev have done so openly insomeSLales. In this
State they'have stilled the voice of the people by
a dishonest district system, and thus given evi
dence of what they are prepared to do in order to
carry their point.
'S&'" Foknky's Maryland war is ovo:
and tho bottle-scarred hero, covered a
over with the glory of a Radical defeat,
has gone into winter quarters. His ef
forts to make “ the streets of Baltimore
run with blood, n resulted in a perfect
Hull Hun defeat to the Radicals; and
notwithstanding they had it their own
way at the polls, they were routed, horse,
loot and dragoon. Maryland is redeemed
and disenthralled from the tyranny of a
llenclish and fanatical minority which has
ground her in the dust for the last six
year’s. The despotism under which she
has groaned was a burning disgrace to tho
American name ; and how that Constitu
tional liberty has oucc more triumphed
within her borders, and triumphed 100 by
gentle and legitimate methods, rather
than by violence, all Conservative citi
zens should rejoice over tho result. That
triumph is worth more' than all the victo
ries of which tho radicals boast. It is a
triumph of liberty over despotism, when
liberty bail well nigh boon crushed out.
It is a triumph of the people over their
enemies, and it was achieved in the face
of tho most dastardly outrages upon tho
sanctity of the ballot-box.

There wore some funny scenes witness-’
cd at the election in Baltimore. One
vote was rejected because the voter, who
is a barber, had painted bis barber pole
red, while and green, instead of red,
white and blue. In another district a
union man was almost driven from the
2-J 67 23 09
polls because ho had happened to
chase a splendid trotting horse named
“ Stonewall Jackson ln, another a vo
ter was denied the elective franchise be
cause, as a sign that ho had umbrellas foi
sale, ho had hung a red, while and rod
umbrella before his door. At one pre
cinct an armless union soldier was re
jected because he had a brother killed in
the Confederate' army, and could not
swear that lie “never had any sympathy
for rebels.” Yet notwithstanding all those
miserable subterfuges to deprive union
men of their votes, the radicals were
beaten in their very stronghold; and For
ney,' wisely concluding to put oil the
blood business until a more auspicious oc
casion, discreetly retires from the scene.
We trust tiie result of the Baltimore im
brogoiio may bo a lesson to him to keep
his nose out of other peoples’ business in
future.

Andrew Johnson's Consistency.
Four years ago, when Andrew Johnson
was Governorof Tennessee—and, of course
before the Republicans made him their
candidate for Vice President—lie mad a
speech, from which the following is abrief
extract. It will bo seen that the princi
ple he enunciated then, with regard to
thoeflect of robellou, is precisely the same
as that he now upholds in his policy of
restoration. He has not changed his views
one iota, nor abandoned the ground he
hold all through the war. Ho then main
tained that the Union was indissoluble,
and could not bo destroyed by secession.
He holds now that the Union is intact,
and that the rebellion did not dissolve it.
If he was wright then—and not a man
of the Republican party disputed his doo
taine —he cannot bo wrong now. He re
mains true and consistent in his nileg
| ianee to tiro Union. It is the party that
elected him, that has proved false.
EXTRACT FROM GOV. JOHNSONS SPEECH.
“The idea has boon cunningly circulated that
alter 1 lie rebellion Ims bocen surpassed, the North
will nut lotus back Into the Union, nor lotus have
u Slate Government! Wlmt shallow low hum
buggery and deception ! Sonic think wo must
petition the Government to get hack into the
Union. I deny the doctrine of Secession wholly,
absolutely, 1010 code. Tennessee Is not out of
ic Union, never has been and never will bo out,
he bonds of the Constitution uud Hie Federal
lower will aiwavs prevent that. This Govern
ment is perpetual; provision is made for reform
ing the Govornmont and amending the Consti
tution, and admitting States into the Union; not
tor lotting them oat of It.”
ftgr Sanford Conover, nlias Charles A.
Dunham, one of the assassination wit
nesses, and one of the persons who was
implicated in a recent conspiracy to con
vict .Tetiersou Davis, by moans of suborn
ed witnesses, of being an accomplice in
i the assassination of President Lincoln,
was arrested in New York last week and
taken to Washingtion. He was arrested
on the nltuUivits of William H. Roberts,
S. A. ilotivo, and L. C. Turner, # who
charge him with perjury, This is tho
sumo fellow with whom Joe Holt corres
ponded and to whom numerous sums of
money were sent to secure witnesses
against Davis. The Radical villainy will
all come out some time or other—and then
the country will open its eyes and won

Dksiscration of Tiii'j Ru-Lpit.—A des
patch from New York to the Tima o!
Monday last says ;
“Reverend W. H. Houle and Reverend Mr.
Woodrull’, Methodists, from their pulpits, yester
day, advised all men, as an aotoi Christian du
ty, to vote for Fenton and Hasten, Republican
candidates, in order to have abuses corrected.—
They besought their hearers to sustain Congress
in their votes next Tuesday, and work against
despotism, wrong ami injustice.
“ Reverend J, Kdwin Hrown, of Brooklyn, be
fore the Young Men's Christian Mission, yester
day, called upon his congregation to pray for tho
defeat of tho Democratic party, which, lie said,
was obnoxious to Ood."
It is thus that the pulpit is prostituted
and degraded, and tho name of religion
dishonored, in order to subserve tho vilest
partisan purposes. There is about as
much Christianity in those Reverends as
there was in Tom Paine or Voltaire.
835“ Accounts from Northern and Cen
tral Alabama report great destitution on
account of the failure of many planters
who had mortgaged lauds for supplies;
but tho crops failing the lauds are sold at
ruinous rates. Familos and homes are
broken up under these forced sales. In
Green county alone there arc more suits
on the Circuit Court docket than there
are voters in tiro county. Meetings arc
being hold urging the Legislature to pass
laws preventing the sacrifice of property.
JSQS“ James Stephens, Chief Organizer
of the Fenian Brotherhood, has loft New

As lie promised an uprising in Ireland
before tire close of tho year, his support

RECAPITULATION.

Democratic members marked thus; (*).
The Washington.' ‘Republican charges Secretary
Stanton with having suppressed the dispatch sent
from Now Orleans on the 28th of last July to tho
President by Gen. Baird, In which tho latter pro
posed to arrest the members of the bogus Conven
tion previous to their assembling. The Conven
tion clld not meet till two days after the dispatch
was sent, but Stanton did not answer it, nor did
ho let tho President know anything about it.—
There is no doubt that Stanton desired tho State
Government of Louisiana to be overthrown, and
a Radical usurpation established upon Its ruins.
He could have acted from no other motive. Such
a Radical tool has no business in tho Cabinet.—
Patriot and Union.
That’s true, “such a radical tool has no
business in the Cabinet,” but yet he is in
it, and, if Washington letter-writers are to
be believed, he is to be retained. Stan
ton is a spy in the cabinet, a revolutionist
and agitator, a coward and a knave, and
it is not much wonder that conservative
men feel a want of confidence in Presi
dent Johnson for keeping this man in
the war office.
ftgf Tlie next Congress will be compos
ed, probably, as-follows : Senate—Demo
crats and Conservatives, 9 ; Radicals, 41.
House —Democrats and Conservatives, 45;
Radicals, 147. With such a prepondera
ting majority there can be no excuse for
longer continuing disunion and non-rep
rcseutntion, but there is no probability of
any change in the Radical programme.—
Perpetual power is what Radaoalism aims
at, and nothing will be left undone that
may tend to that result, however unlaw
ful or destructive of national prosperity.
John W. Forney made a desperate
effort to ean'y Maryland for tho “ Toroh
and-Turpeutino” faction. He entreated,
ho remonstrated, he threatened. He even
invoked tho citizens of Pennsylvania to
invade a sister Commonwealth and pre
cipitate a civil war, in order to help Ra
dical Republicanism to perpetuate the
most outrageous despotism to which a
free people were ever subjected. But
Forney failed through the stern virtue of
tho Governor of Maryland, and ho must,
therefore, have realized the truth that a
Hvo Swann is better than a “ Dead Duok."
j Tho Radicals demand to the South
is this; Reject the amendments and wo
keep you out of the Union : adopt them
and we do not promise to let you in. It
is tho story of white man and Indian over
again. The two shot a turkey and a crow.
Said the white man: “Now, you take
the crow and I’ll take the turkey, or let

“ Ugh!” wastherejoiuor, “ Indian get the

cals, tho South will get the exclusion all
tho time.
ISsT” Hon. James Brooks, of the New
York Express, who was last winter
thrown out of his seat by the Bump Con
gress and a millionaire named Dodge in
stalled in his place, has been re-elected by
over six thousand majority. Brooks was
fairly elected before, but Dodge’s money
did for him in the Bump what votes failed
to do at the polls. Mr. Brooks’ constitu
ency have moat effectually rebuked the
Bump Eadicals for their rascality.
High Prices.— One of the “ blessings”
of a paper currency. Probably another
year of Badical rule will open the eyes of
some of the voters who have been going
it blind all their lives against the just and
equitable policy and principles of the
Democratic party. Hard times and New
England ideas go hand in hand. They
are as intimately connected as the Sia
mese twins.
Secretary Sew abb’s Views. —The
Secretary of State, in a brief letter ad
dressed to a friend in Auburn, New York,
reiterates his opinion “ that tho delay in
the restoration of the organism of tho na
tion is a great error, fruitful only of dan
ger, and that continually.” He advises
his friends to 11 persevere in the correction
of that error.”
WI»o Promised Democratic Aid to Se
cession 7
Disunion organsandspccch-makorshavo
been in the habit, for years, of charging
tiiat the leaders of the Northern Demo
cracy previous to the war promised to as
sist the South in secession.- Who those
leaders wore it was never stated, ana we
never knew until very lately-. Wo hud
that John A. Logan, of Illinois, Radical
Congressman elect, was one of them lie
vious to the War lie was a rampant seces
sionist, and after its commencement he
used his influence, and even his family
relatives, to recruit soldiers for the Con
federacy. For a long time ho aided-and
comforted the rebellion, and it was only
after finding that the cause of the boutii
was hopeless, and that a halter was daily
threatening to encircle his neck, that ho
abandoned tho 11 Lost Cause' and turned
Abolitionist and Radical. Since then he
lias been one of tho loudest-mouthed
crushers of treason. His poor brother-in
law, however, he loft in the lurch, aftoi
inducing him to carry their recruits into
tlie armies of Jefferson Davis.
Recent developments point to Benjamin
F. Butler (more generally known as Bot
tled Butler) as another of those who pro
mised to assist the South in getting out ol
tiio Union. It is well known that Bon.
was a delegate to the Charleston Conven
tion of 1800, (which resulted in the groat
Democratic split,) and that he voted there
persistently for Jefferson Davis, (fifty-four
times, wo believe,) but what ho did and
said secretly was reserved for Alexander
F. Pratt, editor of tho Plaindealer, at
Waukesha, Wisconsin, to tell.
Mr, Pratt was also a delegate to that
Convention, but in favor or Douglas. One
evening, lie says, after the Southern dele
gates had seceded from tho Convention,
lie secured admittance to one of their
meetings, at which he hoard Butler de
claim for an hour about the rights of the
South. He says Butler assured them
that lie and his friends represented the
true Democracy of the North, and that in
case of a collision of arms between the
North and South, that he and his friends
of the genuine Democracy would be found
in, defense of Southern rights. Mr. Pratt
further says that tho Southerners had as
much faith in Butler’s promises “ as they
had in their powder igniting when they
applied the torch toit.’ T He does not know
whether Butler received anything for
voting for two weeks persistently for Jen.
Davis, but ho knows that “ Slidell, Ma
son, and others,” were there, hand in
.glove with him, and that “ they had mil
lions in gold to purchase tho nomination
of a Southern man.”
It is needless to say that, when tho time
for the fulfilment of his promise arrived,
Butler was found on the other side. His
acts and blunders and outrages since then
need no historian; suffice it to say his
name has become synonymous with
“plunder” and his character is well sum
med up in the word “Beast.” Whether
or not he received money for supporting
Jefferson Davis in the Charleston Con
vention, it is certain that ho has made an
immense fortune by his subsequent oppo
sition to the same individual. How much
of that was extorted from' tho people of
Now Orleans and how much from the I
Northern taxpayers let those who care to
1 investigate determine.
Hereafter, when Radical organs charge
that the Northern Democratic leaders
promised aid and comfort to the Southern
Secessionists, we shall know that Butler,
aud Logan, and others of the renegades
who left the Democratic party to batten
at the Abolition flesh-pots, are the guilty
wretches. They, through their lying
promises, and tho Abolitionists by their
officious intermeddling and tyrannical
goadlugs, pursuaded and forced the South
into secession, and with them rests tho in
famy.— Patriot and Union.

A Good Institution —The Keform
Farm, situated near Lancaster, in Fair
field Co., Ohio, is a good institution, and
one like It might be established in every
State with advantage to tho public mor
als ami safety. Its object, like that of
our own House of Refuge, is tho reclama
tion of boys who have strayed away from
tho path of rooitude. The Farm consists
of nearly twelve hundred acres, of which
about four hundred are cleared. A visitor
gives the following detailed statement of
the operations at the farm:
After breakfast, G A. M., all tho boys meet on
tile front lawn and receive their orders for tho
work of tho day. This morning 23 wore detailed
fur the clearing. • At the toll-house, they llud tholr
axes, and at once proceed to tho forest. A force
of 30, with corn-cutters, go to tho corn-field to cut
and shook corn. Other details go to tho garden,
tho nursery, tho buckwheat field, to tho orchard,
to gather apples, etc. At tho dry house wo found
a groupe of boys busily engaged In drying apples ;
they had already dried sixty bushels. Hero la
another groups making butter. Invited by one
of the boys engaged in boiling food for the hogs
wo visited his establishment. His furnaces and
boilers were in good shape, and the fat porkers
in the adjoining pens would bean honor to the
feeder In the Miami Valley. After dinner, tho
hoys spend four hours In shook The evening is
spent In reading, conversation and a review of
the day; and at eight o’clock they retire. Tho
good conduct of the boys is always acknowledged
by an advance grade In tho way to an honorable
discharge, by tho appropriation and confidence
of tho oilleors, and the trust, reposed In thorn.—
Bad-conduct is punished by marks of demerit, re
proof, broad ana water, and in extreme cases, and
approval by the resident commissioner, corporal
punishment is indicted.
Odd Fellowship in the United
States.— At the Grand Lodge of tho In
dependent Order of Odd Fellows in the
United States, which recently mot in Bal
timore, some very interesting statistics
were made public, which show tho
strength of the Order iu this country.—
Returns were made from all tho States
except Texas and North Carolina mid
they show tho total number of members
of Lodges to bo 176,175, and of Encamp
ments 25,749. Pennsylvania has the lar
gest membership, 51,608 in the Lodges,
and 5,944 iu tho encampments. Ohio is
next, with 22,694 members of Lodges,
and 4,528 members of encampments.—
Maryland has 11,447 members of Lodges,
and l,4o2.memhera of encampments, and
Indiana, 11,283 members of Lodges, and
2,324 members of encampments. The to
tal amount of relief granted during the
last year in all the States was about $600,-
000, of which Pennsylvania grantedsl79,-
471; Maryland, 8171,208; Ohio, 800,173;
and Indiana, $41,527.
A Murderer Convicted.—N. Cham
pion, who murdered his mistress, Mary
Carney, in a house of ill-fame, at the cor
ner of Eleventh street and Mark lane,
Philadelphia, on the 10th of August last,
was tried on the Ist and 2d inst., in the
Court of Oyer and Terminer, before Judg
es Allison and Ludlow. The evidence,
though entirely circumstantial, was of the
strongest character, and after a short ab
sence the jury returned a verdict of guil
ty in the first degree. The defence set
up was insanity, but it failed to have any
effect upon the jury.
B@r Syivanus Cobb, the well-known
writer of sensation stories for the New
York Ledger, is dead. He was allniver
saiist preacher at one period of his life,
and among the many works emanating
from his pen, is a commentary on the
New Testament, which is generally re
ceived as a standard authority by the Uni
versalists of the present day.
B®* The Now Jersey congressional del

Haight and Charles Sitgfeaves.
jjigp Wlien wo witness the low. con
temptible tricks that some' people resort
to to injure those whom they dislike, our
belief in the popular idea that wo live in
an ago of moral progress is very much
shaken, and wo yearn for thogood old days
of chi valry. The American people, in tho
aggregate, aro high-minded and nohlo
soulcd, and, being so, must dotost any
thing that detracts from their repuiation
as lovers of honor and decency. It has
been reserved for a certain illustrated
sheet, published in Now York, called
Jlarpcr’s Weekly, (and which, egotistical
ly and quite improperly, styles itself a
“journal of civilization”) to inaugurate a
new mode of personal attack, which must
ako tho palm for scurrillity and moau-
ness. We refer to its vile caricatures of
the President of tho United States, which
have of late adorned its'pagos. The pro
prietors aro well aware of tho invulner
able position .which Mr. Johnson holds,,
in the defence of tho Constitution and the
rights of the people, and not having any
arguments with which to meet him, they
are driven to this regular method of ridi
cule. But were ho never so deserving of
criticioism in regard to his political prin
ciples, yet he is tho President of the Uni
ted States, and as such is entitled to tho
respect of every American citizen, by
virtue of tiro ■position , if not of tho man.
The licentiousness exlbited by the aban
doned journal in question, if copied by
others, would make tho liberty-loving
millions, who are struggling against des-
potism on the other aide of the Atlantic,
chary ofembracingarepublicanism which
allows and countenances such indecency.
But we arc glad to know that the public
sentiment is against this conduct of the
Harpers, whose course is universally con
demned by all respectable journalists.
Death of the Oldest Man.—Chris
tie Van Poole, who died at his residence
in Half-Moon township, Centre county
Pa., on the 22U ult., was probably the old
est man in the State, being horu on the
Oth day of June, 1754, and was consequent
ly 112 years, 4 months, and 10 days old.
He assisted to cut and carry the poll to
tyhich was fastened the first copy of the
Declaration of Independence, made pub
lic in Philadelphia, and through the en
tire Revolution, drove his father’s team,
hauling provisions, clothing, &c., for the
11 rebel” troops. At the time of his death
he was as sprightly as many a man ofsixty
ftve —both mentally and physically, and
could describe events which transpired a
century since, under his own observation,
with a correctness that was surprising.
Forney’s Fiasco at Baltimore,—
The Chevalier Forney and his radical
friends have signally failed in their plots
and plans at Baltimore. They evident
ly intended to excite a riot, provoke the
President to interfere, and then make this
interference the pretext for impeaching
him. This scheme was worthy of a med
dling, malicious, intriguing incendiary
like Forney, who is willing to disgrace
the whole country in the opinion of the
civilized world and again drench the land
in fraternal blood, if he can thereby grati
fy his personal spite and achieve his pol
itical purposes. This Forney is a candi
date for United States Senator from Penn
sylvania, and his chances, which were
always exceedingly small, have been to
tally destroyed by his connection with
the Batirnore fiasco. —N. Y. Herald
General M’ClemjAN.— I TheNew York
Journal of Commerce says; General Mc-
Clellan has for two years past withdrawn
from immediate communication with the
American public, and wholly removed
from all our political complicatians. The
health of his family has claimed his en
tire attention. He has passed the last
summer atßt. Mauritz, a remote and quiet
bathing place in Switzerland, seldom vis
ited by travelers, whither he was sent by
the orders of physicians. At the latest
dates from him he remained in this vil
lage, (the highest inhabited village in the
world,) detained by the same causes which
have guided all his movements. The ho
tels were closed, and all summer travel
had ceased; but we are happy to say, he
writes with more cheerful and hopeful
prospects.
