On Tuesday the Republican Legisla ture of this State elected Simon Camer on a Senator of the United States for six years from the 4th of March. The combined strength of Curtin, Stevens, Forney and Grow tvas overcome by Caifleron, arid he whipped them all ; nay, more, he disgraced them. Previ ous to the nomination the fight against the Winnebago chief was fearfully des perate. Stevens, Forney, Kelley, More head, McClure and other leaders repair ed to the seat of Government, deter mined at all hazards to wrest from his grasp the war club of the old chief. But every attempt failed, and one after an other the assailants fell to the ground bleeding of their wounds. Cameron elected Senator! Ho takes the seat of that honest, incorruptible statesman, Edgar Cowan! Ye'‘gods, what are we coming to? A great and good man is to be ousted from a posi tion he adorns, to give place to a mous ing politician—one who, according to Republican authority, is “the worst man in the whole country, and who never occupied-a position that he did not obtain by bribery and corruption.” So says Forney, so says Stevens, Kelley, McClure, and nearly all the Republican editors of the State. What are we com ing to, we repeat ? It was well that the Radicals had this Senatorial fight-all to themselves; it gives the people an op portunity to judge of the high-toned morality of thatmost abandoned, shame- less and infamous party. “ Cameron, has again bought a seat in the U. S. Senate; his election is an out rage and a burning disgrace,” exclaim those who co voted the same post of hon or. Well, what of that? Cameron is the same man now that ho was when he was Secretary of War, and did not the very men who are now assailing him applaud President Lincoln on the selec tion of his Cabinet? As Secretary of War. Cameron had hundreds of millions of dollars of the public money to dis pense. Why did not Stevens, and For ney and “black Bill Kelley” assail him then ? Was it because they were receiv ing a large portion of the stealings ? Did not Cameron divide with them and make them rich? They now say that Cameron was always a thief and cor ruptionist, but yet they applauded Din coin for appointing this man to the most responsible position in his gift—a position that enabled him to fleece the Government to the tune of hundreds of millions. By branding Cameron as a “ thief and corruptionist," they admit just what wo formerly said, that the grand object of the Lincoln administra tion was to make its adherents rich at the expense of the people’s treasury.— The cry of “loyalty” was a cunning dodge to deceive the poor dupes who sustained these robbers in power. What right then has Stevens, the traitor, Forney, the “dead duck,” and Black Bill Kelly, the contractor, to attempt to tarnish Cameron’s illustrious name, by calling him a “ thief and corruptionist?” They are all thieves together, and the old saying, “ when thieves fall out hon est men get their dues,” may be veri fied. They all made their “ pile” dur ing the administration of the “ martyr, ” and every brick in the new mansions they occupy is stained with blood and moistened with widows tears. Camer on is not a whit worse man than thou sands of “loyal thieves” who hovered about Washington like carrion crows during the whole four years of the war. If he Is a thief, so are they; if lie is a corruptionist, who would sell his coun try for gold, they arc no better; they are all equally corrupt, and wo believe Cameron the best man among thorn. The election of Cameron to the Sen ate is the sequel of the “ great Republi can victory” last fall. Let the people reflect? “TUG GREAT COMMOVEII," The vote that Thftd Stevens received (or Senator i# tips Radical caucus of members of Assembly, at Harrisburg, on the evening .of Thursday, January 10, stamps him with indellible disgrace.— He left his seat and his duties behind him at Washington, and repaired to Harrisburg, determined, as he said to one of his friends, “ to make the nomi nation or die in the ditch,” He failed in thefirstobjeote-a nomination; but he succeeded in the latter—he died in the ditch. Out of the 81 Radical members who met in caucus, he. received hut seven votes,' Oh, what a fall was that for the Infamous traitor ? What a scath ing rebuke from the Radical represen tatives? When Cameron was toid, a couple months ago, that Stevens was to be one of his competitors for the Senate, he said he would “ not only defeat him, but brand him with disgrace, if he could be disgraced.” Fearfully did he carry out ,his threat. Forney, too, the dead duck, who attended on Stevens, and spoke of him ns the “great Commoner,” has al so received a rebuke that should mend his manners and his morals. Notwith standing the fierce manner in which ho assailed Cameron through the columns of his subsidized I*ress, branding him as one of the greatest rascals in America, whose election to the Senate would be a disgrace to our State, and bring defeat and ruin to the Radical-disunion party, he Mled, it appears, to even control the votes of his own city members, a ma jority of whom voted for Cameron! Poor Forney! When he arrived at Harrisburg, holding np the coat-tail of the great Commoner,” old Winebago laughed at ids impudence, and then took him by the nape of his neck and wrung his political head off) After the fight was over,the old Wi»- ebago chief repaired to his wigwam, put up his war club, and crowed like a roos ter, .Stevens, Forney, SJoorohead and other “ satraps” left the town at the hour of midnight, arid were off for Washing ton, where they have been nursing their sore heads” ever since. Let them howl, the dirty traitors. Let old Ste vens go on in his career of treason and • H o ° wa PMty hiw w»p««Ua ted him in Pennsylvania, imd kicked him from the Capitol, with a “ vim” al most equal to that administered to him by the people iu 1838, when heattomnt. ed to unhinge the State Government and did succeed in getting up a shot War." Let the fate of Stevens and Forney be a warning to all traitors. B®*John W. Geary, Governor-elect of Pennsylvania, was inaugurated on Tuesday lust. KEEP. TICE PEOm IGNORANT. It has always been the custom of edi tors of both parties to publish, for the Information of their reactors, the messa ges of the President of the United States, and the Governor of the State. We have always observed this ride, because we felt that wo had nq right to violate it, or to keep our readers In ignorance of the views of our rulers. But the radical editors of late entirely ignore this well observed custom, and seldom do we find in their columns the messages of the Presidentof the United States. Not one Radical newspaper in a hundred has the fairness to print President Johnson’s veto of the District Negro Suffrage Bill. These papers can occupy column after col 'mn in commendation of that most unrighteous and infamous measure, but they have not the decency to lay before their readers the President’s objections to it. Is there a darkey censorship over the Radical press ? It looks like it, for never in the history of our country was such mean unfairness resorted to to keep the people in ignorance. The “ earnest men of the country,” as Forney calls the Radical rascals who are plotting against the people’s peace, . are well aware that their deviltries, : when brought to the attention of the people; are regarded with abhorrence and cbn .tempt. Hence their efforts to keep from the light of day the answers and argu ments against the revolutionary doings of the Rump Congress; But, these'ef forts to mislead and blindfold the. peo ple will surely fail. The yeomanry of the country, thank God, are getting their eyes open to the revolutionary and trea sonable objects the Jacobins have in view, and already we hear mntterings of discontent oven in the Republican ranks. Subsidized presses may refuse to publish the veto messages of the Chief Magistrate of the nation, and thus octempt to cover up and hoodwink the infamous acts of the rumperq,.but this will not avail them, for intelligent Republicans will seelf information from sources outside their party presses and party machinery, and on this informa tion they will act. In conclusion we direct the attention of our readers to the Veto Message of President Johnson, to be found on our first page. The President returns, with his objections, to the Senate, where it originated, the bill entitled “ An Act to regulate the elective franchise in the District of Columbia.” We have no apology to make for the space it occu pies, but commend it to the careful con sideration and reading of every one, as I it is one of the very ablest’ productions which has ever issued from, the execu tive chair of the nation. It la written in the most courteous and dignified style, and the arguments advanced are sound and incontrovertible. The Pres ident discusses the whole question of suffrage from every conceivable stand point, and makes copious extracts from the sayings and writings of the elder Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Ohandbllor Kent and Justice Story to strengthen his impregnable position. The veto throughout is a noble defense of the theory that “this government was made by while men for white men and their posterity forever.” Although it was received with characteristic disrespect by the Radical disunionlsts In Congress, it will meet with the general approval of every sincere lover of his country and its time-honored institutions. jay- Won’t the Herald try to be hon est once in a while, just for sake of vari ety? Last week,, in speaking of the Milligan,case it used this language; “Judges Grier, Nelson, Clifford, Davis and Field, a majority of tlio bench, oppoteU to Judges Clowe, Miller, Wayne and Swayne, Imvo decided In the case of Milligan, his trial by o military commission ns Illegal, and have ordered his re leiuso.” Now if the Herald lias not read the decision of the Supreme Court in the Millagan case, we advise it to do so, for it will there find some very good law. If it has. read the deciesion it must be aware that it is stating what is not the case when it asserts that “ the majority of the court decided that the trial of Milligan by a military commission was illegal, and ordered his release,” in “ op position to Judges Chase, Miller, Wayne and SwayneQn these very two points the decision of the OquH was unanimous. And when it is remembered that five out of the nine Judges who render ed that decision were appointed by Abraham Lincoln, it does not seem in very good taste for the Herald to speak of it as “ an unrighteous decision.” Can it be possible that any of theappoiutees of the immaculate Abraham would do an unrighteous thing! The movement for the impeachment qf qovoruj of the Justices of the Supremo Court has not been abandoned.— Phita. Inquirer. Of course hot. The Supreme Judges who Stand in the way of Radical ideas should ho impeached and put out of the road of Forney’s >* earnest m e n."— Goon, Messrs Rumjiers; don't threaten so long, but be up and doing; impeach the President; Impeach the Judges of the Supreme Court; impeach everybody and everything, opposed to your revo lutionary movements. Don’t talk so much, but act. “Throw conscience to tho devil,” os old Stevens once said, and up and at your work. Many of you de serve hanging, and.theaponeryou move in the Impeachment business, tips soon er will you swing at the end of a cord, On, then, on, to the consummation of your treason! We are tired of threats; let us have deeds.

If Forney told the truth in those articles—and wo have no doubt ho did—Cameron should have been in the penitentiary twenty years ago. Will it be believed that af ter Cameron got the nomination, For ney wrote him a letter proposing to “ bu ry the hatchet,” and to bo his friend in future? Was there over so shameless n creature as the “ dead duck.?” j®“Miss Anna E. Dickinson, the un sexed woman who lectures for the Rad ical disunionists, delivered one of her harangues at the Academy of Music In Philadelphia, a few evenings since.— She was introduced to the audience by a jet black negro named Purvis.’' This was all right and proper, as it is said that Purvis is Miss Annie’s lover. For the Negro—not for the White Man. —The act conferring the right of suffrage on the negro in ■ the of Columbia is officially pub lished. It is accompanied by. the cer tificate of the Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk of the House, stating that it had passed into a law notwithstand ing the President’s veto., : A Negro Theatre.— Philadelphia is to have a theatre for the colored peo ple, at which only colored actors will .play. White folks will be admitted as spectators in the gallery. [From tho Pittsburg Post.] V. S. Senator <lncslion»—Tlmd, Htevcns* Hypocrisy. A desire to preserve the interesting re cords, of the scrambling fight for the high position of United States Senator, now in progress by Republicans, leadps to pub lish the recent letter of Thad. Stevens on the subject, which is a curiosity in its way, but Thad. ail over. It purports to bean answer to Harry White, who with becoming pathosjentreats the veteran not to lag, but come forthwith to Harrisburg and exhibit his Cromwellian front to an unsuspecting Legislature, unable .to make its mind on this important business, Mr. Stevens first plays the old maid, he wouldn't electioneer, he don't want any body to touch him —then hc scolds and de nounces the members for the past fifteen years as having been guilty of corruption, bribery and fraud, that the demoralizing air of Harrisburg has made corruption so fashionable that candidates for office bold ly bid and pay their cash upon thodelivery of the ballot. He then plays the hypo crite in which he is most at home ; by praising the present Legislature ns pure and above suspicion, that all who were tainted were left at home and winds up by stating he would be in Harrisburg, on Tuesday night, although a moment be fore he could not visit Harrisburg for the reason that no man who had any regard for his reputation could consent.to enter into such a competition. Does this shame less trickster expect to deceive anybody by an assumption of Independence and virtue by denouncing previous legislatures vyhen he was not a candidate, and a rival, who was never in his way before, and then travel from Washington to Harrisburg to electioneer for an office, and previously declaring the present Legislature “ pure and above suspicion" to prqpilitato favor, although he will know tire majority were committed to Cameron, and a large num ber constituting the body were returned members. Forney in a double barrelled leader on Monday, denounces Cameron and gives a truthful exhibit of the char acter of the great money changer but dif fers from his recent pet Stevens in his es timate of the present Legislature and says! " Ami what 1b the political situation to day ? Is there a community great oramall, in Pennsylvania, that, does not believe that precisely the same agencies are work ing for Simon Cameron at tho present time ? Is there a disinterested Republi can who hasnot confessed to himself with shame that, unassisted by such influences, he would not stand the shadow of , a ohance before the presentLpgislature? It is true that some good men intend giving him their votes, but the.public judgment is settled that money is being freely used ; and this conviction is strengthened by the recollection of the instances we have cited, and by the extraordinary energy of certain suspicious- characters in all parts of the State.” All we have to say is if “ clubs be trump" Stevens holds the winning hand and the Devil sweeps the pool. Hero is his letter; . House of Representatives, I Thirty-ninth Congress, U. 8,, J- Washington, January 5,1807. J Hon. H. White, Penna. Senate —Sir : I received yours of the 3d inst., suggest ing to me the wish of several friends that I would visit Harrisburg in the begin ning of next week. This you do not hesi tate to say in connection with the pend ing electionof Uniten States Senator, and that ray name having been mentioned among - the cnndltates, my friends think jhat my presence may improve my chances by'removing some false impressions.— When ! allowed my name to be used it was with the express understanding that I should in ho way canvass fo,r the place. I have an ah|f|lng ilYaralQll th election eering for any nines, but to solicit votes for the office of United States Senator is repugnant to all ray ideas of propriety.— It seems to mo that for that nigh office, the Legislature ought to be left wholly uninfluenced by solicitation or any more substantial argument,,to'select whomso ever they might deem, best qualified for thooffloe. I have thought that they were competent to survey the State, and select the man whoeoulddoitmosthonorwith out prompting. But there are other rea sons operating in Pennsylvania still more powerfult It cannot bedenled, and there fore need pot pp concealed, that for the last -ten or fifteen years the Legislature of Pennsylvania has pad a most unenviable reputation. Corruption, bribery and fraud have been freely charged, end, I fear too often proved to have controlled their notions. No matter how honest when chosen, the atmosphere of Harrisburg seems to have pleroed many of them with a demorallzingtuint. : A seat In the Legislature becomes an object of ambition, 1 not for the per diem, but for the chance of levying contribu tions from rich corporations and other large jobs. Corruption has finally -be came so respectable as to seduce candi dates for office-boldly to bid for them, and to-pay the push for the delivery of the ballot. The very office of Senator is known to have once been bought with gold, and to'have been trafficked for on a memorable Occasion in exchange for the precious .metal. , Indeed, it.has become proverbial that the longest purse is sure to win. So sure Is this that men once -er more deteptedin such shameful practices do nol hesitate tp appear before the pub lic and ask'leavq’to practice the satpe gatrie. .' How can" any than',' who has any Character to Ipse, consent to enter Into Bueh .competition. Fortunately for the country, the present Legislature jspbpve suapiolon. Those wh° were !n former Legislatures and were tainted have been left at home; J and pure men scut in their places bo far as my knowledge of their reputation extends. 1 No honest man can be found around where there hangs any distrust. Why, then, should I visit you, as If to attempt tp Influence such independent and pure men. Besides, Jt might be injurious to members, if any who hpvo been’ known to hkve 1 been ‘elected against me should change sides. ’ The inference would be Inevitable, that they had yielded to ille glUmato ' Whfen the 1 eleo ( flop was over, If certain members who Were expected to vote for various candi dates, wore to tic found going for mo against the declared aversion of their constituents, nothing could save them from the charge of a purchase and sale but the known meagreness of my purse. I would not subject any friend to this Im putation. For these and other reasons I have come to tho conclusion that I had better not visit Harrisburg as you request. Yours, respectfully, Thad. Stevens. , Hon. H. White, Stateßeuator -.—Dear Sir— Since writing you under date of January sth, certain facta have come to my Unowlego which may oblige me to reconsider my determination. If so, I will be in Harrisburg on Tuesday night. Yours, respectfully, Thad. Stevens. SIMON CAMERON. Pen Portrait of* the Now Senator from Penn* ■ylvanln by n PelloTr.Jttadlcnl. X<ottor from tongreuman Kelley. Philadelphia, August 14,1865. To the Union Men of the Fourth Congressional Dis trict: A long and successful career In crime em boldens the guilty. A recent illustration of this law of human nature Impels mo to violate my life-long rule of conduct, and' for once to notice a political slanderer. I do not, however, address you for the pur pose of repelling his iuuendoes or false hoods. ' My life has been passed among, you, and If its record, familiar to you all, does not repel them , I have lived in vain.- My purpose is simply to pierce the mail of ill-gotten gold In which the slanderer has clothed himself, and give you a glimpse at the .loathsome object it protects. The papers of Friday announce that Si mon Cameron, of Dauphln'County, was serenaded by his friends oh the proceed ing evening at the Girard House in, this city, and availed himself of the occasion to vilify :hy colleagues and myself, “ the Congressmen of Phllad’a. 1 ' In a speech to the assemblage. I was but ayouth when I first heard the name of Simon Cameron, and It was as the perpetrator of a great crime. He had been,made theagent of the government to carry a large amount of money due them' to the Wlnhebagolndians,andhadtaken advantageof thelrignoranceand helpless ness to enrich himself. ' Those of you who had then attained to manhood, though you may not, after the lapse of so many years, revive the burning indignation with which you regarded the infamous swindler of the poor Indians, will.doubt less remember that, instead of paying them the specie which the government confided to him for that purpose, he re tained it and gave them the notes of the Middletown Bank, of which he was an owner.. At their encampment in the re mote .wilderness these notes were utterly worthless. The Indian could not use them for any purpose there nor carry them to Middletown for redemption. But whatwasthatto Simon Cameron? Wasnot their loss his gain, and was he not so much the richer by every note that failed to come'homo, for redemption, though they did suffer ahd starve ? And those of you who are not old enough to remember all this no w know why this bold, bad man is sometimes spoken of by your seniors as the “ Great Winnebago,” and sometimes as “ Old Kickapoo.” Formore than thirty yearsl have watch ed the tortuous career of this 1 man, and have never seen reason to abandon my first impression of his character. Wheth er acting with the Democratic, the Know- 1 Nothing, or the Republican party—for he has in turn disgraced them all—be has never been false to his animal instincts. He has endeavored to turn them all to profitable occount. His ambition is sor did and panders to his avarice, and meas ures honors by the perqisites they expose to his grasp. He has no confidence in the people, and is aware that they distrust him. His speech of Thursday evening was not characteristic of him, for he is prone to the use of instruments. His habit is to point to the stiletto, but to em ploy another hand to drive it home.— Though an active participant in the poll tics of his county and State for more than half a century, during which long period he has pursued the profits of office, of jobs, of contracts, with eager andi cease less assiduity, he has never dared to per mit his name to be presented to the peo ple of the county or State as a candidate for an elective office.. He crawls to the feetof theapointingpownr.. He earns net wJjo may be King so that he may “ still be Vicar of Bray,” and to that end he chaffers with and corrupts weak and needy members of conventions and the Legislature of both parties. . I need not recite the disgraceful facts attending his several canvasses fof the United Slates Seriate. Their nauseous odor lingers in your nostrils to this hour. In the first he bought the votes of three Democratic members, and in the last bid $20,000 for'lhe one vote which would have elected him. This last transaction was so flagrant that the Legislature was com pelled to take cognizance of it, and if jus tice be not lame as well as blind the law and honor of our State will be vindicated. The evil report of his deeds pervades the country as a reproach to our State. — Yes, unhappily for Pennsylvania and her great interests, the buzzard-winged fame of Simon Cameron is national. By months of abject solicitation and corrupt bargaining, he procured a mass of letters, certificates, and recantations that imposed him upon President Lincoln as the rep resentative man of the State. — That Wfts an evil hour fotPennsylvania. You will remember how he organized the navy agency in this city, and feel the ineffable reproach ho thus brought on our navy-yard and commercial and other bu siness men. In the course of his Impu dent and ill-judged harangue he said:— “ In the olden time a member of Con gress from Philadelphia would have had sufficient Interest „to carry his point (the ■ establishment of a naval station at League Island) without a dissenting voice.” Is that the assertion of a sober miyn ? And did he who made it .forget that our Con gressmen in the olden lime in proposing to locate a Government workshop at Philadelphia had not the terrible reputa tion of Simon Cameron, the Fagan of the Harrisburg lebby and ex-Secretary of War to contend with, and, therefore, bad some chance for success ? My colleagues and I were, less happy than they in this respect, As I have said, ho begged and bargain ed for the influence which induced Mr. Lincoln to invite him to a seat in hjs Cabinet. It was now fondly hoped by those who had not sounded tho J depth of his depravity, that, being old and rich, i he would take advantage of so distin guished an opportuijy to prove that he | could be honest, and could administer trust without turning it to his profit, or handing the fund over to his creatures, to be used on joint account. How sadly these hopes were disappointed Is attested by the brevity of his term of office, and the circumstances , under which it closed. ; Ip less t(i»n one year from the day on which Simon Qaifietpp WAS installed as Secretary of. War, Congress, though at that early day it had before It but partial evidence of bis crimes, indignantly drove him from that high office., Two-thirds of the members of , the lower House were friends of file Administration, and would gladly have, sustained each member of it as they did its distinguished, bead. : You eon imagine how; painful it must have been to them. to find themselves constrained by duty to proclaim the fact that the first man the head of their party had been, induced to appoint as the suc cessor of John B. Floyd had exhibited greater aptitude than he for his worst tricks. But it became inevitable; for this qid man, notwithstanding his boast ed and reputed millions, believes thatqne of his name is never, rloh ehbugtf until he has a little more, and, to save, their party and the country,, the friends of the administration in the House bad to pro claim his infamy and denounce his crimes. Nor was the vote by which they did it a meagre one. His friends, ahd those who would must gladly have averted this dis grace from otfr Brnte. psnid tally butahout one-third of the Hquse against the reso lution of condemnation, , The vote wasi about two io PUP against him,'although I, os a Pennsylvanian, hot’willing tojear witness agaiqat the renrasontatfvo pf phi gtatfe, but too well satisfied of his guilt to vote against the resolution, failed to re cord my vote, In this foot, gentlemen you have the sooretof “ thin distinguished statesman’s” hostility, to me and, my friends. Mr. WalbSrn, the postmaster of Philadelphia, and other qf his creatures, hove offered me his friendship and support if I would endeavor to have that resolution expung ed. My reply has invariably been that to-stir-foui matter would bo to produce a stench. I have never in this or aught else endeavored to propitiate, him or hla creatures. No stone may mark the spot whore my remains may finally rest, bull mean that ray children shall be able to vindicate my name by pointing to the fact that Simon Cameron and fils confi dential friends wore over hostile to me.

Tho people cannot arouse themselves to a sense of tho Impending danger a moment too soon. All parties aliko ore equally Interested in the assault now being made upon tho Supreme Court. If this tribunal is made to subserve more party Interest, It will not bo long before the same fate will befall tho State Courts. This, state of things may benefit the Radicals to-day, but their political enemies to-morrow. How would the people like to have a Judge on tho bench who Would bo obliged! to decide all cases, that come before hlm r Infioflanco of tno law, to suit tho bias of the political majority?

Union. Nor has tho Congress of tho United States a Constitutional power to degrade tho people ol any State by reducing tfyenft to tho condition of a more territorial dependency upon the Fede;sl head. Tho ouo Is a disruption—a dissolution of the Government; tho other is a consolidation and an extreme of despotic power. Tho, advo cates of tho latter are also the enemies of the Union and ol our Constitutional form of Govern ment.” This sentiment was vociferously ap plauded; and subsequently eloquent speeches wore made by Judge Black, Senators Doolittle and Cowan, and others. The President’s toast has occasioned considerable talk, and looks as If he meant to put tho Radicals through, If they on ly give him a good excuse for it.
