died some years before, married the

Tho present Judge Woodward, of the

was a man of the highest integrity and
fidelity, no ono, whether bo agreed
with him in sentiment or not, evor
doubted his honesty of purpose or the
sincerity oi Bit opinions, as indicat
ing his radical opinions the following
may be cited : In the ctrarso of a speech
delivered in tlio House in Jlarch, lHtitt,
ho used tho following characteristic
language : "If this legislation means
anything, it jnst this: that the Presi
dent shall not exercise tbo constitu
tional functions of his oflleo, the judges
shall not exercise Uie constitutional
powers vested in them, but the legisla
tive will ahull be supreme ; which! say
hi a repeal of tho Constitution of tho
United State, and a consolidation of all
tiie political poworof this Government
into the bands or a legislative oligarchy
to no wielded 1 know not by whom.
Ho was marked for his force of char
acter. - Ho was an ablo legislative de
bater, hut was apt to be Tod off into
extreme opinions on political subjects.
He Had largo views on constitutional
law and wsa an able jndieial writer on
questions or a broad'and comprehen

dinarily good technical lawyer. He
wns noted also as a rood nisi nritis
judge, his charge to the jury having
always great weignt, there being somt-

anco coirtribnted lamely to this influ

tn a reWinrKably largo mould, being
several inches over six feet in height
and of massive form and strength.
TO his brother- members of tbo bar
and to tho bar whilst on the bench, as
well as in general society, he was most

concern with the issue itself which is
agitating the German people. It is a
question of Church and Slate, an issue
between the government and a large
number of tho eople at to their religi
ous faith. In all ages this has been a
most exciting and difficult subject to
treat. Tbe religion of the State and
that of lbs peoplo, if in accord, is very
well : but if there is aa antagonism be
tween them, as it it now in Germany,
then there is constant occasion for con
flict. In our own country all this

But in Germany now the contest is
between the State, supported by some
of the people, and others of the people
supported ey tne .nurcn force and
faith. Bismarck is trying an experi
ment over again, lor it has been olten
before tried, to subjugate laith to fores,
the religious opinions of a part of the
people to the government religion, to

Church. To accomplish this there
bare been terribly severe law, enacted

HOW A CONFEDERATE OUT
WITTED THE "YAMCS."
' IlklOB-PVBB LOYALISTS BADLY SOLD.
If tlio "Yanks" had their already
acute tenses sharpened during the war,
a all who oome in contact with them
wdl surely admit, th following etory
will prove that al least one Confederate
made full use of hi opportunities. . ,
Tbe attempt to settle the account
of Major Calhoun, for several year
United State Pension Agent at Phila
delphia, ha led to unearthing tuch a
career a i seldom rewarded by public
potition, on the ground of military
sorviue.
When Calhoun wa found to' be
defaulter the Penaion Office In Wash
ington took "hold of the matter and
found it necessary to explore his an
tecedents, lie had been endorsed and
urged for position by ' the Union
League, on account ot alleged military
service. He was commander of the
Grand Army of the Republic of Penn
sylvania. On all aides be was cordially
sustained by ex Unlonsoldiers. Senator
Cameron gave him earnest political
support because of hit supposed mili
tary merit, and afterward went on his
bond. And yet, when search ' was
made, his name could not be found on
any of the army roils for Pennsylvania,
and although lie had lost a leg above
the knee, and, as he stated, while a
private soldier, there was no trace of
his case among the pension records.
These things taken in connection with
the fact that he has always evaded
specific answers to letters from the
department asking for his military
record, excited suspicion, and led to
some investigation. These developed
the following remarkable history r
"Major" Calhoun -the title, as will
presently be seen, wa acquired after
his entrv into the Union service was
in the Confederate service, and about
the time the Union prisoners were
making theirescape from Libby Prison,
Be was nut In there by the rebel au
thorities, dressed as a Union soldier, to
watch tbe prisoners, and to detect and
report plsns nf escape, lie was a
plausible and talkative fellow, always
in good spirits, and part of his business
was to make himself popular.
n ncn the l nion success about Kich-
mond began to make the rebel cause
look gloomy, Calhoun seems to have
made up bis mind to leave the sinking
ship. ' In pursuance of this idea, when
Richmond wa captnred, he began to
play the role of Union soldier with
vigor, and was sent north, with one of
of the flrst detachments. On the way
to Philadelphia he managed, through
sympathy with his hard experience, to
make good Mends and secure some
money. '
Arriving in Philadelphia he plunged
into the midst of things. He secured
an Introduction at the Union League,
and made himself intimate and quite at
home about that aristocratic and in
tensely loyal spot When the whole
north was shouting over the crowning
victories, and doing honor tothose who
helped achieve them, it Waa easy for
apnsoner rreeh Irom the horrors ot Lib-
bytomakehimseirabero. C alhoun neg
lected none of his opportunities. The
moment be gained a footing he sat
busily and ostentatiously to work or
ganising Poets of the Grand Armytof
tne nopunitc. ' in this work he met
with most flattering success, and, as
has beea stated at a later period, he
rose to the head of that order in the
State. ' '" -
: In the Vocal politics of 'the City of
Brotherly Iove, Calhoun mado himself
won known ana vertreonspicuous. in
all political tense hi course waa up
ward.-' And very epeedily he rose to a
positron waore hi though be could
spy tho position of a Federal office
holder, lie had only to intimate his
desire to hie Union associates at the
League and elsewhere. It was a great
pity, to be sars, that one who had
suffered ao much for the Union eanee
in th field and ia priaosi, and who had
left a leg on the batUo-tlold of the re
publics, thouid be without a flit office.
Would he indicate hit choker With
hi accustomed diffidence he toggetted
the pension agency. "Nothing could
be more fit" cried Union League and
all in concert . And with Senator
Cameron to Dull the political wire.

which money can bring, flowed in npon
him. 1 With tbe custody of largo sums,
his previous shrewducss apeni to

itv has made remarkable progress, t
pecially sinee the tyranny visited up
on Louisiana. Tbe intelligent men of
the South do not hold the Democrats
and Conservative responsible tor the
wrongs and persecution visited upon
them. The elections have taught them
that the great majority in the North
bare "buried the dead past," and seek
a renewal ot tho fraternal and busi
ness relations which characterised the
olden time. Tho pleasantries of life,
as well as business interests tbe duty
devolving upon all as members of one
great national family all demand that
the horrors of civil war should not be
rehearsed after so long an interval of
peace, that friendly relations thouid be
cultivated, and tbe people of tbe South
again become customer of the North.
. Nursing tbe old grudge has lost us
millions in a business point of view,
while oppression born of partisan ma
lignity has dospoiled the South of AS
much more. Common sense and pa
triotism aliko revolt at fostering ani
mosities calculated to divide the peo
ple of a common country, and the
masses begin to understand tbo mo
tives which induce our opponents to
fan tbo flamo of discord: for they
pan so at nothing, and are wholly reck
less of consequences, to that they can
retain the control of the government
and secure its patronage. That the con
stituency begin to comprehend Uii at
titude of tho Radical party, it made
apparent by their disastrous defeats
ail over the country. ' Hence, we bo
hove the attempt again to arouse tbe
passions of the people on tho war is
sue will fail. A different reeling per
vades the masses of both sections ;
and but for the persistent efforts of
our opponents to koep alive ill-feeling
and to intensify the prejudices upon
which the Radical party rode into
office, they would long since have lost
the power; but flow it will no longer
serve them. As time progressed, ci
vilities were exchanged, business rela
tions wero renewed, and confidence to
a great extent has been restored. Onco
rescued from Radical oppression, tbe
South will speedily recuperate, and be
come customers of tbe North as in the
past. Camrfca Democrat.:
