Ilis Bin, W'e notico by the Audi
tor General's report that George Berg
tier's bill ugainst the Common wealth,
fur tho past year, amounts to tho snug
sum of fifty thousand ono hundred
and twenty-seven dollars and fifteen
conts, (830, J 27 15). Bergner is the
publisher of tho Han isburg Ttkijraph,
the Radical Stale organ, and also post
master. If ho cannot make a fat liv
ing we would liko to know who can.
As Old Dkbt. Tho books in the
War Department nt Wrthngton show
that Gen. Grant is indebted to the
United Slates Treasury in tho sum
of 83,000 for money he spent and
nercr accounted for during tho Mexi
can war, when ho acted us a commis
sary and quartermaster. . Wo would
suppotso that ho hud received presents
enough since ho become President to
reiinburso iho Troasury. Ho is cer
tainly no revenue reformer,
Pexsibi.k roil Once. By direction
of the President, tho War Depart
ment has issued un order discontinu
ing the' Military Division of the South.
The commanders of tho Departments
of the South and of the Gulf, com
prising that Divisiun-, nro to report
directly to tho head quarters of the
army, Bayonet rule is therefore
about wound np on this continent,
and tho 4th of March, 1873, will "wind
tip this farce- of a government," as the
Radicals of this Congressional district
Baid on a lute occasion.
Scalawaoery. Tho Radical Gov
ernor of Georgia, before vacating his
chair, issued a pardon to six of his
confederates, who have boen indicted
for defrauding tho Htate Troasury out
often millijns of dollars during their
short stay in thai SlaVo. The reul
point in the case is, theso fellows have
not yet been tried, although big late
excellency has issued a pardon for
each. Wo suspect that the pardons,
under theso circumstances, will not be
worth tho purchmont npon which they
ore written. '
Oub. LKOisr.ATtRR. This body has
not done muoh for tho public jet.
Somebody "fixod up" tho two halls
during tho summer, and sent in his
bill for 8.10,000, being 818,000 for each
hull. This excessivo chargo has pro
duced quilo a sensation, but wo pro
hit mo it will be hushed up liko tho
Evans robbery. Somebody also stole
ii number of volumes of "Bales' His
lory," (bales' robbery would be a
better numo,) and an effort is being
liiado to find ificm. Of courso they
ar lost, and the State must pay the
bill. .
, t'oNOMifs This body Is principally
engaged in contesting seats and di
viding tho public lands among its
members. Civil servico reform seems
to troublo tho Senate just now, but if
there wus no Presidential election on
baud that would even get tho go bye.
Personal interest, instead of the pub-
lio good, seems to be the prcvuiling
sentiment in both branches. The
"free lovo" women mado on assault
upon the members lust week, but sago
Senators and brave members repulsed
the enemy after ono afternoon's sharp
nkirmisliing. The enemy withdrow
in great disordor, but may renew tbc

Calccuzy, the Russian plenipotenti
ary to this country, has loft for St.
Petersburg; tho family fight betweon
Mrs, Grant and Mrs, Catamy having
became so notorious that one of the
government families wus compelled to
louvo Washington. The .Russian Bear
has therefore returned, to hit own
homo, where bo will not be a subject
of family debate and loyal snobbery.
Tho Washington correspondent of
the Now York Jlerald states why
Cassius M.Clay, the celebrated Aboli
tionist, wus recalled while minister to
Russia during Lincolu's reign, It was
becauso Mr. Clay was in tho habit of
loading a lowd woman into his car
riage and driving into the Emperor's
grounds, tokwhich tho Emperor pro
tested. Another chargo was that tho
woman, in u nude state, had bcon pho
tographed a-l tlia resideneo. of the
American 'minister, and tho -photographs
promiscuously distributed.
For such senndaf Mr- Clay was sent
homo. The parly . "controlled by
grand moral ideas" have succeeded in
concealing this infamous outrage to
tho present. time. Is the American
born who will not blush ut this dr.mn
able piece of Radical diplomacy f The
rosidunco of tho American mini. tor ul
St. Petersburg a den of harlots! and
naked at that ! This is not all. Clay
was kept thero as minister for nearly'
two years uftor all this harlotry wus
brought to tho notico of Mr. Lincoln
and Mr. Seward by the Russian gov
ernment. What kind of an opinion will tho
Russians have of us Americans after
Cutocazy gets homo and tells all he
knows about the present government
families ? The Clay diplomacy and
tho horse jockey President must be
subjects of rare reflection among tin
Greek worshipers.
We hope the Duke Alexis, who is
now hero on a visit, will bo utile to
oomprelicnd that Cussius M. Clay
and tho Grant and Dent families are
not representative Americana, but ob
tained position by accident and for
only a limited period.
Dole! at a i.lon.
Tho iicgrophobiuns uro beginning to
speak, plainly. Whether the "white
Irush" want to hear it or not makes
no difference- to tho Inidcri of tho
Radical party,
. Tho Philadelphia Ftett, whilo dis
cussing Mr. Sumner's equality bill,
now before Congrcas, says:
The negro must b received In the ehuretirs,

We supposo tho readers of tho loy

straight forward movement in the in
terest of tho negro alone, and against
that of tho white man.
As the editor of the Journal is in the
habit of manufacturing editorials from
the columns of the J'reu, wo may
look for An etnplmtio ondorsomcnt of
this amalgamation doctrine.
Such, however, uro tho sentiments
of tho Radical leaders, but there are
but few among thorn honest enough
to express them ns menacingly as
Forney. Tho white people who ore
opposed to associating with negroes
may a well mako up their minds at
once to throw their influence and
votes against thoso fanatics ; because,
if they nixist them In their crusade, a

Government RoDnKus. Tho inves
tigation of tho frauds practiced in the
Now York custom bouse by tbo ring,
fully establishes tho fact that General
Porter and Goncrul Bubcoek, two of
Grant's clerks, were partners in ull
iho robberies oommiltcd, and that
each have mado 820,000 a year out of
tho custom house, and also drew a
salary of 83,600 each us officers of the
army and $2,500 each ns secretaries
of tho "government." If thero nro

of icspcctiiblo standing, who can do

This distinguished jurist recontly
rendered an opinion in the case of
Buruham vs. Swoaey, Involving tho
question of female suffrage in the
Si a to, Burnham was nn election of
ficer in tho eleventh district of Phila
delphia at the October olociion of 1871,
und denied Swezey (a woman) the
right to voto. Sho went to law, aver
ring "Unit sho was qualified in all ro
speets according to tho constitution
and laws of this Commonwealth." Wo
condense some of tho points of tho de
cision, which was ngiiinst hen
After recognizing woman's rights
to full governmental protection and
tho enjoyment of "ull tho privileges
which properly bo.'ong to a citizen,"
and denyingthat tho eleclivo frunchiso
is ono of them that beinjj exclusively
regulated by the constitution and
denying Unit il is a violution of cither
the 14th or 15th amendment, her voto
not being denied "on account of race,
color, or previous oontlition of sorvi
tudo," ho comes to tho consideration
whether the .word "freemen" in tho
State constitution "was intended to
continue the right of voting to citizens
of Iho male sox." Ho says:
Tliij section, so far as tho matter
in hand is concerned, is in effect from
the constitution of 1790, nnd that fol
lowed also the constitution of 1770.
In tho littler, chapter II, (notion G, it
is provided j Every freeman of tho
full aj;o of twonty-ono venrs, havinc
resided in this Slate for tho spneo of
ono whole year next heforo tho day
of election for Representatives, and
paid publio tuxes during that liino,
shall on joy tho right of an elector, pro
vided, always, that sons of freeholders
of tho ago uf "twenty-one ycara shall
bo entitled to vote, although they have
not paid tuxes. Tho constitution of
171)0 hud also a similar proviso, show
ing clearly that by "froomcn" only
malo was intended.' Por, surely, had
it not been so, iho daughters, us well
as tho sona of freeholders or qualified
i-lecliors, would luvo been included.
When Iho meaning of this word "free
men" is thus clearly ascertained from
tho language of tho constitution of
1770 and 1700, thero can bo no doubt
that it ought to havo the same mean
ing in tho amended constitution of
18;iS), although the proviso is not ex
pressed in tho same form not being
confined to tho sons of qualified clee
tors betweon tho ages of twenty-ona
and twenly two. There is ono other
clause of tho constitution in whicb tho
word "freemen" is used, nnd that Is
most unquestionably confined to mules.
Article six of section two declares that
"the freemen of this Commonwealth
shall bo armed, organized and discip
lined for its dcfVne when ami in such
manner as may be directed by law."
It is clear that the constitution con
templates Hint tho sumo class of per
sons who do tho voting shrll also do
the fighting. The correspoiidingclause
In tho constitution of 1770 is still
clearer and moro emphatic : "The freo
men of this Commonwealth and their
sons shall bo trained nnd urincd for its
defense." Chapt. 2. seo 5."
The uniform construction of the pro
vincial constitutions und charters in
which tho same word is employed, as
well as under tho constitutions trinoo
the revolution, has been in uceoidance
with the doctrino that none but tho
mules hnvo tho right to vole. A co
temporaiicons exposition is iho best
and most powerful in tho law. In
(ho Common wealth vs. North et nl.,
8 Hazard's Uep. 220, tho Supreme
Court of this State decided, when the
charter of a cliusch gave tho right
to vote to members generally, that Iho
fact that for twenty llvo years (he
females of the chi.reh had not voted,
was conclusive. Chief Justice Gibson
remarked : "Thero is no sufer exposi
tion of what was intended bv such an
instrument than usago." We can say
that we have in Pennsylvania uniform
and uninterrupted usnyoof nearly two
hundred years, showing that women
were nover intended to possess the
elective franchise. Such a usuy;o ought
to settle tho construction, oven if the
words of the constitution were moro
general and comprehensive than wo
have seen tlioni to be.
A Good Step. Congress is just now
trying to got thip building revived in
this country, from which England is
reaping a rich harvest. Del tho infer
mil tariff and slump tuxos be repealed
and economy practiced by government
officials, nnd tho remedy will be com
ploto. A merchant would bo a great
fool to pay an American ship builder
8200,000 for a vessel whon ho can buy
ono equally as good in Europo for
81o0,000. This difference is produced
by tariffs and plump. Tho movement
is a good one, but tho luriff cormorants
are tho wtong men to foster trade and
commorce, except for sectional, parti
zan or family benefit. Commeico,liko
political integrity, has received a so
rcro blow since tho Radical reformers
havo mounted to whore statesmen
onco occupied scots.

Ex Governor Joseph E, Brown, of
Georgia, auled a very conspicuous
part in tho Chicago convention as a
friend of Gonoral Grant and in no
small degroo aided In bringing about
bis nomination. A short time ago an
unprincipled carpot-bnggor addressed
a letter to him, soliciting his aid in
nrociirintr a declaration of martial
luw in timt Stale and by tho use of
the bayonet securing tier electoral
voto to Grant in tho coming Presiden
tial contost From Kx-Uov. Brown's
reply to this pimp of tho administra
tion, ho is evidently disgustod with
tho vindictive legislation of Congress
towrda tho Smith and regards tho
Radical policy of reconstruction us an
ignomimtjuu full uro. Being u native
of tho South, ho is a competent Judge
of whut is required to restore pe-aee
and hurmony among her pooplo, and
repudiates Grunt's bayonet policy as
applied to the Southern Stales in the
following manly and omphutio lan
guage :
"Tho Republican party has boon
constantly weakened until it is almost
destroyed in Gooriia by tho repeated
acts of Congress during rhe period of
reconstruction, prompted no ouuot by
unwiso counsellors professing to speak
for tho Stuto, who cither misunder
stood the true condition of things hury
or wilfully misrepresented it. In
either case the effect wus the same.
Congress has been misled und popular
sentiment here has bucn outraged lo
an extent that has rondercd it impos
sible for the supporters of the admin
istration to stand before it with' any
prospoct of success. I think it itn
limo unwise legislation should ocaso,
and I protest against further enact
ments of tho character contemplated
by you and others who assist you in
your proposod movement.' The wisest
thing, in my judgment, that Congross
oould do for Georgia would be to oon
cilialo her people und show them that
il is the intention to deal justly und
liborully by lliein. If a general act
was passed sweeping from tho statute
book tho lust vusligo of polilicul disa
bility that rests upon any of her citi
zens, and sho wero left as other Slates
aro to manitgo her own internal affairs
in her own way, it would do moro to
restore peace, harmony, loyalty, nnd
good government in the Stale than
anything clso that is now in tho pow
er of tho Federal government to do."

suicidal conduct of the national ad

ArPiiBNTicKs ?oa tiik NAW.--Mr.
Scolield, of Pumisylvuniu, introduced

tliroo hundred utldilioiiul apprentices
in tho nuvy, to bo known 11 u "inton
apprentices," who shall bp between
the ages of lifloen nnd seventeen yuurs,
and servo until they ure twenty-one
years of ago. Upon urriving nl tho
'i of twenty. one, if they pass u sat-

duty ol tho Secretary ol the iSavy lo

or on resignation, Tho bill oni braces

Nor to Get a Seat. Tho Commit
tee on Elections on Thursday agreed
to report against Cessna, of Pennsyl
vnniu, in his claim to tho seal of
Myers. Tho voto was seven in the
negative and two blanks. Tho Coin
milteo also for the third time refused
to favor an extension of time for Ed
wards, of Arkansas.- This is hostile
to Senator Clayton, so far as tho
House committee can pass upon the
merits of tho controversy between the
loyal thieves who infest and disturb
that State, Tho detest of Cessna is
tho overthrow of a first-class Pennsyl
vanin demagogue and one of tho most
unscrupulous politicians ovor tastto
tbo surface.
A Skctionai. Pamtt Thero is
nothing so delightfully edifying as tho
bold uttoranccs of Wendell Phillips,
when ho takes tho idea into his hard
head lo upset the vain boasting ol 1.1s
pnrly in its moment of patriotic effu
sion. Tho claim which the party
makes of being tho party of tho Union
Is ruthlessly diKOWiied by Phillips, in
this Cushion.
It ts the first sectional party ever formed iu ttic
United cilntea. It does not know iti owe place,
nnd oalls itself a national inrly, but il 11 not a
national pnrly. The ltrpublicnn parly ia t tie
party of Ihe North, pledged agnin.il (he Ssutb to

Tho (lirl'oronco between Phillips and
his brethren is about this : lie is given
to telling the truth, whilo his col

bad feeling, with no adequate return,
ms the election In Philadelphia would
soon havo given tho Republicans a

continued ;
" We hope to. secure, through this ooiaproniise,
a modification of the odious itegirtry Law, which
Will he a benefit to the Pcniooratir psrty through
out the Slate, 't he ISposker of tbe Senate bus
declared to us in tbe most positive manner that
he will supply two amendments to tbe Registry
l.aw, and use all bis influence in tbe Hi-nate and
Mouse to pass tbctn. The Speaker for tbe House
will vote for and otherwise luvor the adoption of
tbe amendments, and Othor protuiusnt end iiijl'4
ential wen among the lfepuolieaus of tbe House
heve said the enine thing. A good feeling is ex
isting at llarrisbnrg, and we have more to expect
now, with the assurances we have received, than
we eoutd have cxiectcd if wc bad pursued a dif
ferent oourse."
We trust Mr. Davis' expectations
may bo realised 1 but our faith in the
magnanimity of licpublicun logislulors
is very weak, when tbo odvanlagu of
their jiurty is at stuko. We believe,
nevertheless, that the Democratic
Senators did right in allowing the Re
publicans to havo control of ihe Sun

wo would rather it hud been done
without the aid of a Democratic voto.
