Fl inders, Btitrap Sheridan's Uover-
nor of Louisiana, hits removed two
of the three white members of the
Biard of Control of the State Peni
tentiary, and baa appointed two ne-
eroea in their stead. Reconstruction
is nothing more nor lew than ensla
ving the whites and freeing the ne
groes.
Our Congressman, Mr. Scofield, is
tnrnping in Ohio. He is assisting the
negroes and mean whites to amalga
mate in their raid upon society and
the Union. A greater humbug in
politics, except in unadulterated Abo
litionism, than Schofield, is not to be
fuiiiid. If the Ohioans become as tired
of him as tho New Yorkers did a law
j ears ago, on an agricultural occasion,
tho physic may do them some good
efieciilly the black portion.
Cains' In oh thrlr Muscle.
' Tho negroes in the first and fourth
Congressional districts in Georgia have
issued an address, calling upon their
colored Irelhern to vote for no white
man for Congress, claiming that they
hare a large majority, and can elect
one of their own number, and alleg
ing that the right to vote carries
with it the right to hold offioe. That
is precisely so, Mr. Darkey Send
your highest colored and strongest
S'.tntcd brethcrn to Washington, as
M. C.'s, and have them DHsotiatc, eat
and sleep with Thad. Stevens and
Charles Sumner. The former may
endure It, because his taste has run
in that line for thirty years, and he
-may be considered "reconstucted'' on
ti nt point; but tho latter, and our
otii ricoCeid, and tbeir allies, may
.-eakinjfly objuvt, but make them
it tlii-irown vii ttinl?. In short, com-
si tb'-so bloodhounds to practice
what they j.r.-ach. If they really
love the gentljrnan from Africa, let
them onibiaue him and enjoy his
co npsny.

Til telegraph informs us that the
lut not of despotism perpetrated in
Goorjjia, by Lord Pope, is the sup-
nv"ion of the JVeirt a newspaper

prc-ume the editor refused to go on

the html that sruitoshim; hence the
rr.ei'tintriss charge of "disloyalty."
Turing the war it w. disloyal to
speak against the "government"
LfnVnln; but now, in time of peace,
it seems to be disloyal to aay anght
gainst a military satrap.
Generals like Tope are just the men
fir work like this. Foiling to whip
the rebels in the field, it is soma con
fcolmion to k now that they can van
quish them when they appear in the

ot even the Emperor of France can
in this way suspend a newspaper.
T o or three warnings, at lonst, are
iiei ;ary. But what the most pow
o crowned head in Europe dares
not utttrnpt, our little military mon
archies may here do, not only with
impunity, but with tho approval even
of a party that calls itself ' Republi

At Into term of his court ho haitl ,
that "no man could bo excluded from
tho jnry on necount of color under
tho laws of tho State. Three qualifi
cations were necessary for a juror :
good character, intelligcnco and a
freehold; and that when a negro pos
sessed those, and was duly drawn, he
must be put on the jury." Tbo Judge
staled that "since tho abolition of sla
very in 1805, by tho Stuto of North
Carolina, thero was nothing in the
laws of tho State to exclude colored
men from acting as jurors ; and since
the passago of the Civil liights Bill,
giving them all tho rights of white
men, they wero fully ontitlod to act
in this capacity."
What Dan Sickles, Fowlo, and tho
Ramp Congress have dono in North

judge we will havo the same thing in
less than two years. Thorefo re, those
whiles who consider themselves aud
their children no better than negroes,
will vote for Williams ; and those
who believe in the supremacy of tho
whito race and desiro a free nnd pros
perous country, will vote for the white

Swindling- I he Tiixpayrrs.
How the Radical State Ofllrialr are Man
aging Kluanrlal Affair.
In the last Indiana Register there is
an article worthy the attention of the
taxpayers of Indiana county, exposing
the attempt of the Radical State au
thorities to swindle the county out of
Z,lov vol lo more clearly expose
this swindle, and give additional tacts,
we copy the following from the llar
risburg Patriot & Union :
"We lately iilludod to the fact that
tho Radical State officials and their
favorites had perpetrated a grand
swindle upon the taxpayers of the
State in their method of making tbo
twenty-throe million loan. They bor
rowed 23, 00U,OU0 at six per cent, in
terest, and made tho loan free from
taxation. This sum they aimlied to
the payment of similar amount of
the old loan, which bore five percent,
and was subject to taxation, By this
transaction the State is compelled to
pay one pur cent, more interest and
it looses the State tax upon twenty
three million dollars a total annual
amount of at bast four hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, which must
either be added to the State debt, or
made up by future taxation. The
Radical favorites who held tho old live
per cent, bunds made a good thing out
of tho transaction gaining one per
ctut. moro interest and being relieved
of taxation, but tbo taxpayers suffer.
Whether the Radical Stalo officials
made anything by thus playing into
the bands of the old State bondholdurs
is for the people to detoriniue. To
say the least, tbeir conduct was not
above suspicion.
"No doubt the success with which
the Iwenty-thrco million loan swindle
was perpetrated, and the little con
demnation which it has excited, em
boldened the Radical State officials to
attempt others: at leant another is
now in process of consummation of
most magnificent proportions. In
brief, the Judical ofhcinls are making
an rxtra assessment of taxes upon the
several counties for the years lHlJO and
1807, ir hick, if made generally, will
compel the taxpayers to pay this year
from four to six hundred thousand dol
lars in addition to their ordinary State
taxes! Berks county has been thus
assessed, extra, for lrtflG-7, to tho
amount of tlO.HW OS, and York
county lo the amount of f 10,040 7H.
Upon half of these amounts interest
is demanded from tho second Tuesday
of January, 1807. If tho other coun
ties of the Commonwealth eliuil be
mulcted in proportion, the swiudle
will fully reach the larger aggregates
above mentioned.
"It is not necessary to multiply
words in reference to such a baie-faced
transaction. No doubt every cent of
the ctra assessment is needed lo meet
the expenses of the State, incurred by
Radical officials, but this method of
raising thn wind is both unjust and
illegal. A Radical Legislature re
moved the tax on real estate, in order
to make political capital, and they ran
Geary and tho lato Cameron Legisla
ture into office by so doing, but the
operation greatlv reduced the revenues
of the Slate, f hen the Radical Stale
officials reduced the revenues of the
Commouweulth to tho extent of at
least 1450,000, by paying additional
iutornston tho twenty-three million
loan and making it non-taxable. Then
thn Cnmnrnn I .iulnt.ir mH
increase in ils own pay and official
salaries ; squandered immense sums
upon Radical contractors; gave Geo.
Bergncr ten or twelve thousand dol
lars more than his work was worth ;
made a largo appropriation to fit up a
palace for the "Unhappy Failure;"
another to keep up a negro "insti
tute;" another, of nearly four hnndrod
thousand dollars, to maintain the sol.
dior's orphan schools, with its costly
State "Bureau," when a much smaller
sum would havo answered a better
purpose if dispensed in pensions."
The amount of this swindle to be
exacted of Iho taxpayers of Indiana
county, according to the Hrgir.tcr of
last week, is f'i.L'iO 73. It is further
stated by the Iteaistcr, that "our Stalo
Sonotor, lion. Harry White," bad
gone to llarrieburg, "to confer with
the State Treasurer noon the sul iect.
j ... ..i ... '
Bin correct, u possmie, this grievous
mistake." This mission of Senator '
White failed, of course, and our tax- j
payers have the gratification of pay-1
tng this largo amount of additional
tax, to pcrpelunto tho mlo of the j
Radicals in the State. How do vim
like it, gentlemen! Indiana Dcm.
Greeley says, "wo sustain no man
whose record is not as clear as the
Go to, you mouthing hypocrite. -

jng t0 Mi t10 rx.npr.nnibilily of their
discovered perfidy 10 tho shoulders o
their political opponents, making them
appear as likewise in secret conference
with tho convict Conovor, Tho stale
cry of "you're another" is an admis
sion of the verity of the original
chargo ngniust the accomplices of
that party who bnvo left no agencies
untried by which they might substan
tiate charges, whether Into or falso,
against tho President, and all who
favored hiV policy. It is the frantic
cry of the fugitive criminal, who bel
lows "stop thief" in tones louder than
his pursuers. Hut is the charge
against tho President and his sup
porters, of having attempted to use
Conovcr for their own party purposes,
substantiated uy thotuctsr J. el the
public remember the past, and they
will then, on candid examination, dis
cover, who were the patrons and sup
porters of tho suborned porjurer, aud
who it was that olticiully denounced
(by implication, at least,) the Shaftes
bury of the wholo conspiracy. Inves
tigation will expose the fact, that
Holt and Manton, and still later, Sut
ler nnd Ashley, (with others less
prominent in everything hut unsoru
lous tnanapeniRiit,) quietly manipula
ted this infamous creaturo for thoir
own purpoaea. (hi the Other baud,
though certain Dcmouralio leaders
might have desired to uso the mere
tool of superior villainvas an informer
against ills unprincipled patrons
regarding him in crime as only less
culpablo than the parties who urged
him on their dununoiations of both
patrons and perjurers have been open
ly promulgated and persistently urged
in entire condemnation of both parties
to the crime. From the period that
Mr. A. J. Rogers made his minority
report (about one year since,) as one
of the investigating committee on the
subject of the assassination, it has
been universally accepted by every
fair mind, (including Mr. Greeley,
himself,) that gross and palpable in
justice had been perpetrated in giving
credence to any statements emanating
from the unworthy sources upon which
innocent men had been held np to
public scorn. Mr. Clay was suffered
to go free, and Mr. Davis finally re
leased, whilst Conovor was convict :d
of perjury, and has been scntoncod to
ten years' imprisonment in the Albany
Penitentiary. If this does not deter
imitation of his example, what penal
ty is sufficient to keep men from
crimof Mr. Hogcrs covers his opin
ion of Holt with a very transparent
veil, when lit says: Conover il was
who found Morritt, Campbell, Snevel
and the rest, who rehearsod and
taught them, and as professor of per
jury, watched his pupils in their deliv
ery thereof at lesson time., before Judge
Jlolt. Stinging under this palpable
rebuke, there was no recourse left for
tho officials who had employed these
mendacious agents, but to apparently
assent lo tho prosecution of Conover
(Uiongh they might secretly urge his
pardon ;) and Holt himself nppenred
on tho stand, and in his testimony
admits that Conover's affidavit, at the
time of the assassination, was written
in his own handwriting. Cinover's
words thus were taken down by that
party who desired to shapo their
meaning to suit his own evil purposes,
and draws out, by artful questions to
the ready tool before him, tho dosired
responses. To account for this fact,
the only excuse offered is, that ho
"believed tho man was telling tho
truth" though mere belief, in a court
of justico, is rarclv offered in the ab
sence of posilivo knowledge. Ict us
see what proof Mr. llolt could have
bad of tho character of the man he
was using for his own purpose. The
record of Conover's villany had al
ready been published to the world.
The proof of this mendacity is set
forth by tbo following statements, in
parallel columns. Conover's state
ments wero respectively these :

It would bo useless lo go on recap
itulating further more glaring nnd
dangerous charges against an individ
ual, for his infamy is admitted and the
falsity of his operations now unqties
lioned. Mr. Holt could not fad to
have tho fact of the man's mendacity
bronght to his official notice, for the
facts were patent lo all and appnrenl
from every offioiil record. Th" ft;
ho offered, thoreloro, on behalf of Con
ovcr, on tho occasion of his trial for
perjury, wasaf'ceblo excuse lor himself
and a w eak defense of his co-partner.
His anxiety for the pardon of the con
victed criminal was the fear that if ho
did not uso his influence to that end,
Conover would "squeal" and tell the
truth at lust. As little credence is to
be attached to Holt's statements on
this subject, as though they were
words from the lips of tho criminal
Conover himself, lor they were both
partners in a common guilt, nnd what
one gnins in infamy as the schemer of
the crime., tho other loses in importance
ns criminal, and sinks into the con
temptible tool of a still moro corrupt
adviser.
Investigation docs not manifest
that the Democratio members who
momorialir.ed tho President in Cono
vcr s favor, did so nt Mint time, with
any other motive than to uso. as.Slatot'
evidence, ono of tho less guilty of the
conspirators, against certain parlies
and the President. They admit that
he was guilty, bnl that tho excuse
triven bv Oonovar wna thni h U,l r
cetved a sum of money from Mr. llolt,
tho amount of w hich' lie did not dis
close, though it was described as "sat-
islactory." 'lhe reward, however,
only $100 from Con
iwitiiow testified he
over. Another
received a like
sum from turnover and $500 from
Holt. If tho sub agents were thus
1 1 bora My stimulated, the reward of
the bend professor must have been
still more generous. It is understood
that fin, 0(H) hud been placod at bis
command for his valuuhlo services,
and that bis copartners in crime
quarrelled, and "let tlio cat out of the
bug, because a moro eqiiifublo divis
ion of the briho was not made among
those who contributed to tho same
evil work. Snevel, the accomplice,
told his tempter that he should appear
before tho Committee, to make what
amends he could; that "ho had not
any rest since he sworo to what he
did." It would bo superfluous to add
further details as to the character
of tho witnesses, or tho unhallowed
means further used by Holt in his ca
pacity as Judgo Advocate General,
but all will remember that theso facts
wero endeavored to bo hushed up at
tho time, that it was the Itcpublicnn
members of tho Committee who locked
up the evidonco from the eyes of the
Democratic members, and that a Re
publican Speaker decided that Mr.
Rogers "was not entitled to see the
papers, on which my opinions, as
member of that Committee, must be
based, until such time as the other
members of that Conimittoo chose to
allow me by saying that they were
done witlij.them." lie was, in fact,
only permitted to soo the papers
tho day buorc ho mado bis re
port. It is to luto now to attempt
to fasten under-hand dealing on this
subject upon l)cmocrulic members,
although thoy tay have desired to
uso tho confession of the criminal
against the men who induced tho coin
mission of his offence. Until tho
statements of theso parlies, therefore
interested in this mailer, are suppor
ted by soms higher authority than
the letters paraded in opposition jour
nals from Conover's brother-in-law,
Sathan Anter, and his co-associates
in villainy, it will only bo adding fresh
crime to thane already perpetrated,
in a vain elfort to stem the fatal ver
dict to which intelligent minds can
offer but ono conclusion, and that is
thai dark villainy has been perpetrated
by officials high in power and the basest
means used to bla'ken the President by
the most infamous agencies. Until,
therefore, some more responsible par
ties appeur than '.hose who claim that
they havo been assiduously approached
by respectable men of this community
(who deny undr oath tho falso impli
cation,) it would ho in their cases
moro reasonable to assume, that tho
same lavish means which purchased
a Conover ami his tribe, have agen
cies equally j liable at their command
to carry out any evil purposes they
may design. Even the meek M r. Mntch-
ctt, the Rcv.(::!) Mr. Matchett, who is
said to have been refused ordination
or office in the Baptist Convention of
this ntato, is dubious ns to the propri
ety of his proceeding ns intervening
agent, und the whole correspondence
of Ashley, Butler, and Holt, reveals
how low men will stoop in partisan
rngo to overthrow by any and every
means, those who may oppose their
wicued policy.
The wholo subject is revolting, and
rovekls tbe degradation to which they
havo sunk. .Mcrritt, another coadju
tor of Mr. Holt, according to Mr. A
J. Rogors' official report, received
$6,000 for his services as a perjured
witness. 11 is glaring falsehoods have
been so fully exposed, that 'on bis
return to Canada, we are told, tho
man was driven with disgust from the
community, there has been hereto
fore an investigation of these charges,
to which Mr. Jtogers nt tho time ap
pended his name, but it is to bo hoped
lor the causo of truth, that the villainy
of the whole transaction may be fully
exposed. 1. Express.
Tub Western Penitentiary.
Within a month past four criminals
have made their escapo from this in
stitution, two of whom escaped in tho
open light ol day, and had it not been
for their pursuit and recapture by pri
vate citi.ons, would still bo at large.
The other escapes took place on
Saturday night, and were effected by
two desperate characters named Cow
ling and Clements, sawing apart tho
bars which securod the heavy iron door
o! tnuir cell, and surmounting the
walls oi luo prison yard by means of a
rope ladder.
Tho watchman who wits on duly at
the limo of this escape, is said to have
been foucd asleep at his post That
there is something radically wrong in
the management of this institution is
evident, and the soonor the drones
now there are dccipitated, and a Bet
of more active and discerning men in
stalled in their stead, the better for
the community at larger L infer tho
regime ofCapt. Birmingham, the for

Tho 2Vr.s says it is "bold repudia
tion" to pay off with "depreciated
greenbacks" tho interest of a debt
contracted to bo paid in coin. To be
sure it is. So said the Democrats in
tho Lcginlalute when Senator Con-
noil t bill repealing the act to pay in
coin tho interest on our Stalo debt
was presented, but so did not the
Radicals say who votod for tho meas
ure and mado "hold repudiation" a
law of tho Commonwealth. Sn snid
Judgo Sharswood, who is unalterably
in tavor oi the inviolability ol a con
tract. So is not Judgo Williams, tho
candidate of tho Allegheny rcpudia
tors, who attempted to repudiate a
solemn debt, honestly contracted by
thoir connty. Which of the two is
most worthy tho confidence and sup
port of tho people f

The Philadelphia Agemy; "When
a Iwidical Journal ol Massachusetts
stigmatized the German voters of
this iSUito as tho "stupid Dutch, tho
Press cried out that the article was a
forger'. But tho spirit which dicta
ted the article in question is prevalent ,
among tho Radical leaders in all phrts
of the Union. In a speech mado nt
Marietta, Ohio, n few days ago, Sena
tor Wade, tho President of tho Senate,
said, "ns a mass, the negroes aro bet
ter qualified to discharge their duties
under tho government than the great
mass of foreigners that wo have
always permitted to vote.' John C.
Leo, tho Radical candidate for Lieutenant-Governor
of Ohio, remarked
nt another mooting of his parly : '1
here make the assertion that the scv
eu thousand five hundred men, of
twenty-one years of age, in Ohio,
with black blood, aro bet'er qualified,
by reason of intelligcnco, to vole, than
aro seven thousand rive hundred white
men, foreigners, many times told.'
These extracts show in what estima
tion the leaders of the Iiudical patty
hold tho men of foreign birth, who
live in this nnd other States. They
wero bespattored wilh fulsome praise
when needed to fill the ranks of our
Northern forces, but when the war is
over thoy are placed far bolow the
negroes in point of intelligence. But
the 'stupid Dutch ol this and all tho
States will not he deluded again.
They know thoir friends and will act
wilh t'lera this lull. 11 the rress
pronounces tho 'stupid Dutch' story a
forgery, how about the declarations
