The Republican Nomination for Congress.
I lie action ot the Republican party of
Cambria County in rejecting Mr. Barker
re-nomination, destroys tic. claim
which that county had for tho-uccessi<>n,
and places all the eountb s < a an equal
footing. Cambria, Blair, Huntingdon
an i MitMin compose the District. ( am
bria having the present member, has no
claim whatever t<> the next, since she re
iu-es to put Mr. Itarker forward for re
nominatiou. Blair county having had
the nominee for three successive terms
preceding the last, viz.; in '6O and '62
will certainly have to stand buck for the
present. Huntingdon county has not
bad the nominee since 1852—sixteen years
ago—when Dr. McCullnch was nomina
ted and elected on the Whig ticket. Mif
tlin has noi had the nomination for munv
years, and has strong claims.
From these facts, it is plain Chat the
nomination clearly belongs to Hunting
don or Miiiiin, and it these two counties
are allowed to sett If- the question between
themselves, we liavc fir doubt the strong
Republican majority given in Hunting-!
don county won id be a sufficient argument
t<> induce Mifflin to yield her claim for
the present. It is Huntingdon county,
a:t< r all. lli.it must bo depended on to fleet
the candidate, and with such claims as
she lias for the nomination, we think it
will be rather unkind, to say the lea.-t,
for the other counties to refuse' to concede
it to her.
We copy the n'oove from tlie Shirley -
hurg Herald as a correct exposition of
laets. thougii \\ >. do not altogether assent
to the position assumed that In cause Mr
Barker was not re-nominated, it destroys
the claim which Cambria county had for
the succession. Personally, we are fir.-;
for Mi til in county; secondly, if Hunting
don county cm or will pri cut an urn x
< cp.'enable man who n\*sll command tlx
suffrage of the district, so far as mere
* hiims go, we nr.- for Hunting ion; but if
it can he shown that Mr. Morrell, in ad
dition to hi- i xteiisivc knowledge ami
busiine.-s capacity, which friend and foe
concede to him, will be most likely to
defeat the copperhead plan com octed by
Cowan, (ly mer Co. to elect one of their
own stamp from this district, then v,-,
are /or Dauici J. Morrell. First of ail.
however, we are for harmony and gie-l
w id, and trust politician- in all the coun
ties will make nj> their minds to meet
caiiuiy and deliberately, and do no act
which will cause estrangement or hard
feeliug. In that case it will matter hut
Jittle whether the nominee be from Mif
flin. Huntingdon. Cambria, or even Blair,
for although men may be disappointed,
the district will lie represented as it ought
to ix-, by a sound Union man.

The Constitutional Amendment as it was
Passed Perfected by both Houses of Con
gress.
Joint resolution proposing an amendment
to the Constitution of the United Stats:
Resolved by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States ot
America in Congress assembled, two
third-of both Houses concurring, That
the following article lie projxrsed to the
Legislatures of the several States as an
amendment to the Constitution ot the
United States, which, when rat died ..y
three-fourths of the said Legislatures,
shall 1k valid as a jiart of the Constitu
tion. namely:
AKTin.E —. SECTION 1. All persons
born or naturalized in the 1 nitcd Suites,
and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,
are citizens of the United States and of
the Stale wherein*they reside. No State
shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of
citizens of the United States. Nor Miali
any State deprive any person of life, lib
erty or property without due proec-s of
law, nor deny to any person within its
jurisdiction Jhv equal protection of the
laws.
Sj:> . 2. Representatives shall be appor
tioned among the several States according
to their respective numbers, counting the
whole number of personam each State,
excluding Indians not taxed; but whene
ver the right to vote at any election for
electors of President and Vice President,
or for United States Representative? in
Uongris.-. executive and judicial oliiecrs,
or tlie members of the Legislatures there
of, is denied to any of the male inhabi
tants of such State, being twenty-one
years of age, and citizens of the United
States, or in any way abridged, except for
participation in rebellion or other crime,
the basis of representation therein shall
be reduced in the proportionwhk*h the
number of such male eitizeus shall bear

twonty-one years of age in such State.
Sec. No person shall bea Senator or

ficer of any State to support the ( on.-titu
tioii ol the i. i.ited States, -hall have < n
gaged in insurrection or rebellion again?!
the same, or given aid or comfort to tin.
enemies thereof, hut Congress may, by a
vote of two-thirds of each House, remove
such disability.
Six . J. The validity of the public debt
of the United Stale- authorized by law,
including debit- incurred for the payment
of pension? and bounties for services in
suppressing insu rreetion or rebel lion , &hall
not be questioned, but neither the Uni
ted States nor any Site ,-iiali sissUine or
pa\ any debt orobligation iin uried in aid
of insurrection or rebellion agoin.-t the
United States, or any daim for the loss
or emancipation of any Cave, but all such
uebt-, obligations and eiuinisshall beheld
illegal and veld.
The New k ork Herald, the principal
support* i' oi JoojisrOii aiiu <i Nil tor
poncntof the Union programme of Con
gress, has the manliness to speak as fol
low- of these amendments :
V Tiiis is. we -ay. a - irons* platform upon
which lo go before the people of tin
Northern Stales. There is nothing lu re
obnoxious to publii opinion in the way
of negro suffrage, while :h" alternativ'e
-u.' gesn ■; will be satisfactory to the North.
There are no vindictive penalties Jiere
again-', ivih is and traitor.-, iu, eoraiuiou
al exciu-km-, which cannot be iv.->,-ufi
successfully before the jieopli ts iai put
down tlx- rebellion. The same may be
said of the jirojxisitions touciiiug the na
tional debt, the debts of the rebellion and
tue tour millions ot liberated Southern
slaves. Upon this platform the Republi
can party adhering to this Congiv.-.- can
carry our apjiroaciiing Northcin Stan
ehviions a- they did last year, if there i-e
ixi other -harpiy defined issue brought in
season before the people." .
I he Herald is right in saying this is a
strong platform, and it i? -o i ecause it is
right and just to both* North and South.
The propose 1 amendments to the con
stitution are a platform which ine-.-ts the
general approval of the Republican party,
and 111a leaves negro suffrage with the
State-, where it properly belongs, but
justly denies th,. right of rebellious Statt -
to have thirty or forty members of Con
gress to outvote the loyal North if tho\
exclude the loyal black? from that privi- !
lege of voting or, in other words, it pro
vide- that a white vote in the Sout.li -hall
not count more than ri white vote in the
North. 1 ndcr the "( on-titution as it
was," which the Soutlx rn democracy for
feited by rebellion, tlx-y had that ri-ht',
and the question now is, Shall it be re
stored to them uniinpared, so that less
man eigi t millions ot a wliiiepojajlation
in tlio-c Mates sliall cxerci.-o as much
pol.ta-al power as w< ive millions in tin-
North?
There ir something to talk about—there
is a prineipl, whieli will bear discussion,
and it is one too of a vital character. No '
other act under heaven, save a rebellion,
could have wrested this monopoly from .
those States, because they held it by com-!
i-a- t. That compact they broke, and it
now remains for the victor to say whether
they -hall come back as our equate or our
superiors. Once admitted, there is an
end to all compromise on the subject and
nothing but another rebellion could de- i
pnva three Southern whites, even if rebels
at heart still, from being the equal politi
cally ot five northern men. The issue
t hcrelore is not negro 'qualiti/, but wheth
't a Southern rebel is better and entitled
to more rights than a loyal Northern man

More Democratic Financiering.
Three years ago Isaac Slenker entered
upon hi- post as Auditor General, and of
course the office was at once tilled with
patent democrats, mostly of the copper
head stamp. Through prostration, that
ollieial was unable to devote as closo at
tention to his duties as a responsible of
, tieer ought, and it now appears that the
taxpayer- are likely to pay rather dear for
hi# election and thru' democracy. The
officers of the Petroleum Bank and the
Venango Bank, intend entering suit
against the State of Pennsylvania, for the
recovery of a million and a quarter of Uni
ted States sei-urities. with Aud
itor General Slenker, us security for the
cireulating medium of those banks. The
; facts, as they are stated in official circles,
I are these: The firm of Culver, Peun & Co.
; were in the habit of taking the notes of
the Venango and Petroleum Baltics for
cancellation at the Auditor General's of
fice, where they received a like amount
of bond- for that which they presented in
notes. It is now alleged that the parties
thus redeeming tie .-e-boiuis were neither
agents nor officers of these banks, and
that the bonds were taken to New York,
and hypothecated by Culver, l'enu A Co.
.-cnator I logo, from the Venango di.-irict,
allege- that it was without authority of
the banks ; that it was embezzlement, for
which the Auditor General of the state,
is responsible. Warrants have been is
sued and officers are now in Venango
county to arre-t the parties implicated in
this transaction. Auditor General Ilart
| ran ft has appointed 11. Clay A i lonian, E.
< . \\ illiams and i'. J. Jordan a commis
sion to proceed to Venango county and
examine into the affidrs of the Venango
County Bank, connected with which, as
is alleged in the nffi.jal paper creating
th:s committee, evidence of fraud exists.
