The following resolution was unani- i
mously adopted:
Re*ided, That while *p are not advocates !
of a change in the Oonctituti-n of Penney 1- *
vania giving the right of suffrage to the col- f
ored race, we protest against the admission
of United State* Senators and Members of
the House of Representatives from the States I
lately, in rebellion until the Constitution of '
the United States is so amended as to pre '
vent rebels lately in arms against us from ;
representing the loyal blacks of the South, j
who hate neither voice nor vote t" elect such :
members.
Tise Legislature has got to work in \
earnest, and will probably adjourn next
month.
West Virginia proposes to remove;
her capital from Wheeling to Buckhan- i
non.
On Friday the Philadelphia k New :
York mail was robbed at the depot in '
Williamspirt. The bags were found i
empty.
The Maryland Legislature has outran- I
chied the sixteen members disquali
fied to vote under the operation ot the
legislation law. Right—kick out all !
rebels tmm Union councils.
A man named Philips, agent for the
American Express Company, has ab- j
sconded from .St. Marys, C W., lately,
with £12,000. He will speedily bea
European.
Congress is engaged in perfecting |
hills to meet, the new condition ot things ;
South. President Johnson declardU the i
other day that loyal men only mast i
represent the South.
By an arrival from Aspinwall we !
leai II that Geii. Prado, the Dictator of
Peru, has made an alliance, offensive
and defensive, with Chili, and it is
hoped at Lima that the other South I
American republics would execute aim- j
liar treaties. The Spanish fleet is con
contrated at Valparaiso, and it was |
thought that an attack would soon be
niaoe.
Three men were hanged on Friday
for murder; one at Cleveland, Ohio i
and the others at Wheeling. West Vir i
ginia In the latter case an attempt
was made to hang the two men to- I
gether, but both ropes broke, and the ;
men w-gre precipitated to the ground, i
They wore again taken on the scaffold,
and hanged separately.
The desertions from the regular ar- i
roy during the past few months have
been so numerous, that Gen Grant has
issued ar order directing department
ami regimental eommanders to take
the most stringent measures for put- j
ting a stop to them and arresting the
runaways, and to institute investiga- ■
tions for discovering and removing the
cause of this extensive and criminal
abandonment of the service. Tberea- i
eon we think is plain enough, as acCor- i
dint to copperheadism, desertion like
treason in time of war is no crirne
and therefore not likely to be so in
of peace j
Copperhead Democracy.
Some years ago the grand motto of
democracy was "eqaal laws and equal
rights"—a tfeemo on which youngand
old stamp orators of that party de
scanted with flourishes of rhetoric high
as Haaman's gallows. With here and
there an exception there was then no
subserviency, no bowing of the knee
to the arrogance of slavery and slave .
power, and the dangerous doctrines of
John C. Calhoun were looked up
on with Jacltsonian eyes as criminal
and revolutionary. As the leaders of
that party became more corrupt, equal
rights were gradually yielded to South
ern despotism until in ISGO-1 James
Buchanan capped the climax ot north
ern copperheadism by declaring that
there was no power in the general gov
ernment to coerce a State, or in other
words, to put down and punish treason.
Thousands and tens of thousands of
honest democrats left that party as
these streidal doctrines were inocula
ted in its creed; but the leaders still
persisted, and now the party styling
itself democratic is nothing more than
a taction held together by the expected
plunder ot office, and to attain that end
are willing to receive at once, without
probation, the entire rebel communi
ties of the South into the halls of Con
gress, and we have no doubt whatever
thousands would not Imitate to vote
for Gen. Lee, John C. Breckinridge or
any other perjured traitor for ['resident
should Vallandighain. Ben Wood, An
conu. Denison, Buckalew, and other
choice lights of patent democracy
succeed in nominating either. Such
at the present day is the party claim
ing to be descendants of Jackson dem
ocracy.
At this time also the papers in
the interest of the .Southern conspira
tors are weekly filled with the most
absurd denunciations ot everything
that is said or done by Congress. One
ot thein, now before us. stamps the
following section of Mr Trumbull's
bill as arbitrary, tyrannical, and un
just, and yet it simply provides that
crim - shall bo punished alike without
regard to color. To illustrate this, let
us ask what would be thought of a
legislator who would get upand< ffera
bill providing that in Pennsylvania two
sets of laws should be in force against
criminals, one for whites and another
tor blacks and mulattos! Would he
not be set down as a fool or a lunatic?
Yet this is what Jet Davis's northern
disciples are now advocating by de
douueing such legislation as this, which
wio prevent such barbarous laws from
being enforced in the rebellious States:
1 here shall be n # discrimination in civil
rights or immunities among the inhabitants
of any State or Territory of the United States,
on account of race. Color, or their previous
condition of slavery; but the inhabitants of
every race and color, without regard to any
previous conditi in of slavery or in.oluntarv
servitude, except ss a punishment for crime,
whereof the party shall have been duly con
vioted, shall have the same right to make and
entorce contracts, to sue the parties and give
evidence, to inherit, purchase, lease, sell,
hold and convey real and personal property,
and to the full and benefit of all laws
anil proceedings for the security of persons
and property, and ehail be subject to like
punishments, pains and penalties, and to
aone other, any law. staiute. ordinance,regu
lation or custom to the contrary notwithstand
ir.g "
As a case in point, we copy the fol
lowing from the Nashville Press and
Times of the Gth. with the remark that
we might weekly fill our paper with
accounts oi similar outrages in all the
rebel States from Maryland to Texas:
Intelligent persons from Robertson coun
tv give a deplorable account of affairs there.
S.tue two months ur uiore since, Th >mas
syne, an old and respectable Union man
living a few miles from Mitcbollsville, who
had been hiding for many months from his
reconstructed neighbors, was bunted up in
one of his fields by a rebel named Foster, and
shot down in cold blood, and again shot when
he was dying.
A negro man heard a certain person tell
roster that Mr Payne had returned home at
8 "' an beard Foster reply that he would go
straight and kill the o id Tory. The negro
started off to warn the old man, who was at
work in his field, a mile off, of his danger.
He came in sight of the sp:,t just in time to
see the old man murdered.
' i he murderer then went o the house and
called for the oldest member of the family.
A daughter, who had looked on and Been the
murder of her father, replied that her mo
ther was not at home. The fiend then called
for the next oldest of the family. The poor
Rtrl replied that she herself wa- the next old.
est. He then demanded that she should say
he was a gentleman for killing her fathei
a,i.v eaid nothing.-when the de
mon left, telling her he would yet kill her
.'TK r 'e t h °-w ,d r b r n ,he arnir.
lhe Sheriffof that county is one ofMor
gans's men, reconstructed, and the justices
of the county are all reconstructed, but can
not be induced to take nny notice of the case,
though the murderer is still there, apparent
-1? unconcerned. Perhaps they hare good
reason to apprehend that if the* venture to
to arrest the offender, their owu lives would
oe in danger.
"On last Friday, (February 2d.) an old
and inoffensive Lnion man, a Mr Smith, was
found dead in one of his out-h-mses, shot
twice, once through the head. //is only of
fence was loyalty to his country. Our infor
mant had heard of two other caaes of Union
men being found dead from violence, but
cuttld sot give particular*.
' **A week afro the notorious ifsrper was at
Mitcheliaville. and attempted to kill the puvt
Btaster for the infamous offence of taking the
test oath and holding ofiee under the Gov
ernment. He was with difficulty prevented
from executing his purpose.
"A number of the Unionists of that county
are preparing to go North Mr. Barlow,
whose wife had the misfortune to see the
murderer of Mr. Payne, has taken his fami
ly to Illinois, fearing his wife would be mur
dered, to keep her from testifying in the
case.
According to the slave laws still en
forced. the negro who saw this murder,
though honest, creditable, and reli
gious, could not testify in a i-ourt, be
cause the blackhearted scoundrel who
committed this c< id-blooded murder
was called a irhite man. If, in the mad
ness of party northern men will so far
forget their duty to themselves and ;
posterity as to invito or suffer such
reprobates not only to exercise the
highest right of citizenship, but to enter
the halls ot Congtess, legislate for loy
al men, and hold high offices, then will
even the present generation see anoth
er rebellion, government securities be
come worthless, and with their fall tola)
and widespread ruin. Such has been
history, and such may be ours should
Northern copperheads and Southern
traitors again obtain rule.
Negro Suffrage.
The white democracy of the north, -
comprising every sympathizer with the
rebellion, every skulking deserter, and
camp followers generally, is now en
gaged in demonstrating that there is
some danger of the negro becoming !
their equal, and charge the republicans j
with a design to give thorn universal '
suffrage. There is no such question up
in Pennsylvania, nor is there likely to ;
be. So far as we are concerned we
are satisfied that the resolution adopt- j
ed by the Union County Committee j
last week embodies the sentiment of a !
large majority of all classes in this
State, and we aro equally satisfied if
such an amendment were submitted to j
the people of Pennsylvania -not more !
than one tenth would favor it. This, i
in a groat measure, is owing first to !
popular prejudice, and secondly to '
the blacks" themselves. t<>o many of I
whom, instead ot taking advantage of:
opportunities to elevate and improve
themselves, are indulging in idle and
dissolute habits, and thus giving i
strength to the prejudice against them, j
In the South it is a grave and im- j
portanl question how far we should go
towards giving them political rights, j
for the true question there is, "Wheth
er a WHITK REBEL is better qualified to •
become a citizen than a LOYAL BLACK 1
MAN The prejudice spoken of above j
will probably exclude them from suf- i
frage in the late rebel States; but if so,
what man who desires the welfare of;
bis country will advocate llie right of :
rebels with hands yet reeking with ;
the blood of northern martyrs, not on- j
ly representing themselves, hut also :
the loyal blacks. This however is
precisely what the northern patent |
democrats and copperheads are advo- i
eating; and we suspect when the ichite \
people once get to understand that i
the hypocritical cry of "negro equali- '
ty," "white man's government," &c., i
simply means that thirty or forty thou- j
sand white rebels shall exercise as t
much political power us a hundred :
thousand white men in the north, they i
will leave a set of men who advocate !
such unequal power, even if it is done '
it the name of democracy.

To be Continued.
Everybody Interested.
I propose to offer to the public the follow
ing proposition : All who will favor me
with their calf skins, well taken off. clear of
cuts or other damages, will be entitled to 11
cents pet pound, for all skins fr.-m 9 to 18
lbs.: 8 cents for ali from 18 to 30 lbs , ex
cept murrains.
As many persons in stripping a veal are
nut sensible of the importance of caution,
in producing a good skin clear of cuts and
other damages ; it mav be necessary to give
a hint at least, how such jobs ought to he
done. Some after the calf has been killed, in
bleeding it cut the head almost or half. If,
which ought not to be done, by which they
make a large gash in side of the neck, in
lhe skin, depreciating it iu appearance, and
greatly in value, lu bleeding, let all be
careful to opeu the skin under the neck, pro
ceeding back until fhv are sufficiently far
to peal the skin from the neck, so as to ex
pose the aorta, or large artery, which cut,
thus avoiding this damage in the skin. After
the hide is taken off, (and cannot be taken to
market immediately) weigh it. spread it out
nicely, and salt one half or side of the skin
heavily, then lap the other side carefully on
it so that all parts of the tlesh will come in
contact with the salt, throw in the legs and
beiiy part, then roll up tightly, let it lay 24
hours in a coo 1 place, when it should lie hung
in the shade to dry, flesh out, thus curing it,
and avoiding much danger, by moth or soak
ing in water, and reducing the labor in soft
ening, and also much facilitating the process
of tanning. Some put ashes on the hides,
others drag them in the dirt, by which tho
blood that remains on the hide is retained in
it, which, when dry can never be removed,
making the leather brittle and horny, wrhhe
the salt extracts the blood from the hide, pre
serves it in ail- its fibrous qualities to in ke
leather, by keeping it always in a moist eon
ditioti. so that when put in water, it is soft in
a very short time. Skins well taken off and
cured in this manner, arc worth what I offer
for them. And, if this may prove an induce
ment to any to apply themselves in this ini
portant matter, for your own, as well as the
benefit and encouragement of the manufao
turers, we will be glad to know that some
effort is being made to carry out the good and
noble principle, of doing to ami for others,
what you would wish others, in like circum
stances to do for you. Some might infer
from my remarks that the tanners are not
paying generally what skins are worth This
is no doubt too much the case. But, it is
also very trua and evident, that this conse
quence results from the indifference on the
prt of many in producing a skin clear of
damage. We propose the rule. Tiy it i n
generally and see if it will not work. Work
good for yourselves, good for all.
Produce a good article for market, ar.d
stand for a just and fair price. By it you
will injure no one, do credit to yourself, good
to all, and to prhom it can be said "well done
good and faithful servant', you shall realize
the benefit of my golden rule. Hoping these
suggestions will be carefully examined and
adopted, I submit it to the public. Any
person wishing to act as agent for me in this
matter, will please address
