we, sets of delegates being present from
Rapho a motion was made to admit them
both with the right to cast rut one vole. A
FillbStittae , was oflbred that each set be al
lowed a vote, inasmuch as they came from
diderent election districts. This gave rise
to considerable discussion, there being a
manifest tendency on the part of the dele•
gates to allow each election district to send
delegates and to have a vote in the Con
vention.
A point of order being rained by A, J,
Steinman Esq., the President decided that
under the mil for the Convention and the
usages of the party the motion to allow the
two delegations from Rapho omit, a vote
was out of order, and both delegations were
admitted with the right to east but olio vote,
On motion of A. J. Steinman, Esq., the
following resolution was then proposed :
Besolved, That the question of changing
the representation in Democratic C011V12.11-
tions from representation by townships,
and representation by Election Districts be
referred to the County Committee for action
at their next meeting,
On motion of Col. Joel L. Lightner a res
olution was adopted that the candidate for
Jury Commissioner, be first voted for.
On motion the Convention proceeded to
nominate candidates for the various offices
to be filled with the following result:

At 2 o'clock the Convention reassembled
Lancaster township which was not repre
sented in the morning reported and the del
egates were admitted.
On motion, two .sets of delegates being
present from Mount Joy township, both
wore namitted but with the right to cast one
rote only.
It. It. Windy, Esq., Chairman of the
'ommittee on resolutions, reported the fol
owing series which were received with ap
ilausc, and unanimously adopted.
It
Resel prrl, T h at we hail with delight the
evidence of a great political reaction which
has been exhibited in the results of the re
cent State elections; and that we pledge
ourselves to spare no effort to secure the
defeat in Pennsylvania of that party which
openly confesses that it can not continue to
exist without the help of negro votes.
Result.cd, That the maintenance inviolate
1 the rights of the States, and especially
he right of each State to control its own
ornestic institutions according to its own
idg,tnent exclusively, is essential to that
ialutice of powers on which the perfection
11,1 endurance of our political fabric de
ends,
Resofred, 'Chat the establishment of negro
governments upon the ruins of tho Southern
States by military force, at an expense of
many millions of money wrung from the
people by (mpressive taxation is an outrage
that calls for universal condemnation.
Resolved, That the Democratic party is
,pposed to the doctrine advanced by Sena
tor Wilson and the leading Republicans,
lon Congress has the right to impose negro
iiirrage on the States, against their will,
thereby degrading the white man to a level
with the negro.
Er:m(l,l, That if Congress has the power,
which it has exercised in conferring the right
~r suffrage upon the negro in the Southern
States, it has a like power to confer upon
hint a right to vote in the Northern States;
nal that as the sticcess of the Republican
party in this State will be regarded as
an endorsement of the acts of the Republi
aul Congress, by the people of Pennsylva
nia, we may expect, In that event, thut all
effort will ho made by Congress to confer
the right or suffrage upon the black man
in Pennsylvania.
of (ho Sopromo Court should make his dm
visions conform to tho Mons of a political
party, as laid down by the Republican
State Com...talon, is• calculated to subvert
tho eery Inundation of justice: and that by
taking his stand on such a platform, Judge
WillitinN has :+ll,.wit himself to bo a mere
partizan, and utterly unlit to oce ) upy the
high position to which he aspires.
Resvetc,3l, That the great legal ability,
high official integrity and spotless christian
charectl. of Ibm. George Sharswood, en
title hint to the confidence and support of
'very citizen of Pennsylvania,
Resolved, That we hall with delight the
uprising of the laboring classes, who throw
ing It t Ins pdoo tlr tyranny iffilicted upon
them by the Republican party are de
termined to maintain their political and
social supremacy over the negro. Their
voice should he heard and heeded In the
Hells of It.gistlittion.
/1c.,11/reti, Phut It Is the duly °flit° Legis
lature of Pennsylvania at its next session
to noise an appropriation for the purpose
of lirovlding it suitable asyluffi for POllll
- infirm and disabled soldiers.
C'ol. P. S. Pyfer moved that Instead of
vol log by di,drictm, each delegate be allowed
to cast one vote for each candidate named.

dissuasion, which was participated In by
P. M. 11eltier, of Ephrata, Henry Eckert
of Paradise, 11. F. Herr, of Strasburg, Gun
Win. Tattoo, of Columbia, W. P. Brillion',
and others. The opposition to its immedi

JUST So.—The following pretty clearly :
illustrates the position of the business man
who does not advertise:
2.1.11:11y don't you deal with me?" said a
close-fisted tradesman to a friend the other
day.
The reply was characterlsth
"You have never invited me, sir. I have
looked nil through the Intelligencer for an
in nation, in the shape of an advertisement,
and found none. I never go where I am
not invited."
BaoRE His NECK.—The Elizabethtown
Gazelle of Saturday gives the following ac
count of an accident that occurred in the
lowor and of Dauphin county, on Friday :
"We are sorry to announce the occur
rence of a very sad accident, which hap
pened yesterday, by which Wm. Morning
Broke his neck. Mr. Morning was em
ployed by Eli Foster, plasterer, to carry
mortar, and us ho was ascending the ladder
or gangway, with a hod full of mortar, the
ladder broke, and Mr. M. falling down
broke his neck. This accident happened
somewhere in the lower end of Dauphin
county, the exact locality we could not
learn. Mr. Morning leaves a large family
to mourn his untimely end."
Tits 111131ANE EQUIPMENTS.—The Hu
mane Fire Co., No. 6, are making prepara
tions for the forthcoming parade, which will
surpass most of the other Companies in our
town. They are getting an entire new set
of equipments, which will give them the
finest, and most attractive appearance in
the line. Their new shirts are made of a
very fine handsome red cloth, with glass
buttons on the breast and wrists, with a big
"6" in white on front. They were manu
factured by Messrs. Wentz Bros. Their
new belts are also very beautiful, and are
being made by Amos Miley.
AN ADDRESS TO WORKING MEN.—The
following address to the workingmen of oar
city has been issued by the Co-operative
Society:
Fellow Workin,qme% of the City of Lama&
ter:
The Co-operative Society of your city,
composed of workingmen like yourselves,
now takes the liberty to address you with
reference to the importance and necessity of
united action with us in view of the op
pressive obstacles which capital, at the
present time more than ever before, seems
to be throwing in the way of the laboring
classes. A few of your fellow workingmen
a short time since organized themselves
into an association in order, if possible, to
inaugurate a plan by which those obstacles
might be removed ; and feeling conscious
that general union on our part is what is
needed, we respectfully ask you to attend
our meetings, and after an examination of
our methods of procedure, associate your
selves with us in a joint organization which
shall be able to break the shackles of the
extortionate capitalists who have for years
been building up vast fortunes out of the
labor of our countrymen. The idea of such
a society as wo propose to establish is not
the excogitation of our own intellects. It
had Its inception where the civil liberty we
inherit derived its origin, and it has proved
itself iu no wise u futile conception. Vast
enterprises conducted upon the plan we
propose inaugerating, have resulted in a
law years in astounding success ' and it but
awaits the e ff orts of the enterprising labor
ing men'of Lancaster to demonstrate the
practical workings of co•operative societies
in our midst. Colossal fortunes have been
built up in both England and America by
poor,
but energetic men, who have entered
into business upon the co-operative system.
Why would nut a similar success attend
the same efforts made in this community.
Similar success is confidently predicted if
tile laboring men of our city can bo led to
perceive their own interest, and will unite
with us for their own and our mutual ad
vantage.
The condition of society has been a pro
gressive state front that of the wild and
untutored savage to the refined and polished
civilization which now HpllllS the enlighten
ed States of the old World, end the rising
nations of the Western Continent. Many
intermediate stages exist,, however, be
tween these two remote extremes of society,
and the passage from one to the other has
required thtiusands of years to be accom
plished. The difficulties ever to be sur
mounted during this long passage of society,
have been those interposed by capital
against labor, and the same difficulties con
tinue to display themselves as formidable
us ever heretofore. Feudalism was smote
by the chivalric baron of the middle ages;
serfdom has vanished over the barren
steppes of imperial Russia; and slavery is
about disappearing amidst the carnage and
smoke of a thousand blood stained battle-
fields. Like the fabulous hydra of antiquity,
the monster is no sooner wounded in one
of his heads than he displays another in its
stead. The old obstacle is ever present. It
has never as yet been removed, despite the
efforts of a progressive society, and it con
tinues to intrude in the social organization
of the body politic. It is, in brief, the op
pression which society still permits capital
to place upon labor. Until this oppression
can be fully removed, the laboring classes
can never feel themselves truly freemen,
but simply serfs and bondsmen, whom so
ciety coerces to serve the wealthy and sup
port thorn in their indolent luxuriance.
This oppression is destined yet to be Fe
moved. Society is rapidly nearing that
goal of equality which the Creator has fixed
upon the face of mankind ; when the labor
ing peasant will feel himself the peer of the
Nation's ruler, when all grades and dis
tinctions will have disappeared ; and when
wealth will have so diffused itself as to be
nu longer the potent iinitrument of oppres
sion in the hands of a privileged aristocracy.
To accomplish this grand result, which the
soundest political economists of our ago
believe not distant, no such feasible method
has ever yet presented itself as the union of
the laboring classes in associations anti
enterprises of different kinds, by which
capital and labor will so operate as to liar
mcmize society instead of forming the re
pellant elements 01 the social fabric. When
this union becomes once thorough and com
plete, the wealth and aristocracy of the age
will be loft as social wrecks upon tile shores
of a fossil society.
We call upon you, therefore, in behalf of
your own interest and in behalf of a higher
civilization, to unite with us iu ardor That
the experiment of co-operative societies
may be tested in our midst, and that every
man may be permitted to enjoy the whole
of 1.11 , , earning 4 iie.ttead of being obliged to
receive a limited pittance, 'old the balance
taken to swell the purse or some wealthy
capitalist. So soon as the laboring classes
can he induced to form a thorough union
and organization amongst themselves, so
SOOll will they he enabled thoroughly to
compete with society, and receive their
equal share therefrom and accumulate cap
ital fur t henimul yes,
Our Society has been organized under
the title of the " Lancaster City Provision,
Clothing and Find Association," and we
simply note one instance of how this AMMO•
elation will lament its members and those
who may agree to unite with us. Coal can
be purchased at the minus In Schuylkill
county and delivered by the Society to its
members at from $1,50 to $2,00 per ton
cheaper than It cnu be bought at the coal
yards in our city, and In this way members
will save 'ruin e,,00 to $20,01) on the pur
chase of their supply of winter fuel. The
Society contemplates the immediate estab
lishment cif n store at which members can
purchase their provisions and clothing at
less extortionate rates than the same can
now be had elsewhere, iind as HOOU as suc
cess will have demonstrated the practica
bility of the undertaking, the society may
enlarge its attention to other industrial
pursuits l'OlUiring a combination of capital
and labor. The old adage, "in Milan there
1.5 sh•eaglh," will be our watchword. Come,
then, workingmen of the City of Lancaster,
and unite with us and aid us In revolution
izing society as at present constituted. We
will thus be enabled to purchase the neces
saries of life cheaper than otherwise; but
we will likewise so shape the objects of our
Society as to make it a mutual aid by
which every member will be enabled to
secure a retreat for himmelfand family, and
where, in his declining years, without
dread of a notice, he may re
cline under his own vine and fig tree.
IMPORTANT TO TA X-PAY HRS.—The fol
lowing article has been handed to us for
publication by the Assessor of Internal
Revenue for this district:
Mr. Warfel, Assessor of Internal Revenue
for this district, desires to state, that owing
to the confusion attendant upon the change
of officers and other unavoidable circum
stances, it is believed that many of the
annual assessments for income wore not
made. 'rho lists are, however, now being
'compared with those of former years, and
other means adopted to ascertain the
parties omitted. Al I persons therefore who
believe themselves liable to income tax for
the year 1866, will avoid trouble by making
immediate return to the Assistant Assessor
of their respective divisions.
Many parties subject to license or special
tax for 1867, have never made the proper
application. All such are liable to penalty
for every day they continue In business,
and for the information of those who may
be ignorant of their liability, we would state
that this special or license tax applies to
almost every trade, profession, or business,
except flumers and mechanics, whose pro•
ducts do not amount to $l,llOO it,yedr. All
auctioneers, commercial brokers, cattle
brokers, wholesale dealers, and wholesale
liquor dealers, are required to make month
ly returns of their gross sales.
The Internal Revenue laws have since
1.P,f,2 imposed a tax upon legacies or
successions. Every Executor, Administra
tor, Guardian, or Trustee, who has since
that datd settled estates or paid over
distributive shares, without having ascer
tained and paid the revenue tax thereon, is
personally liable for the same, and the tax
remains a lieu on the property, in whoso
ever hands it may go. Those who have
neglected or tailed to attend to this matter,
will do well to report at once, ns an
examination of the Court records will he
made, and other means taken to ascertain
the names of delinquent parties.
VISITING FIRE: COM L'ANIES.—The follow
ing we believe to be an accurate list of all
the companies that will participate in the
coming parade of our Fire Department.
The guests of the Sun boys will be the
Iland•im Hand, Assistance and Schuylkill
Hose Companies of Philadelphia, and the
Good Will of Harrisburg.
The guests of the Friendship boys will
be the Hibernia and United States Fire
Companies of Philadelphia.

THE SUPREME JUDGESHIP
Remarkable Pamphlet from David Paul
Brown, of Philadelphia.
What a Leading Radical Lawyer Thinks
of the Candidates
David Paul Brown, of Philadelphia, a
life-long Abolitionist and one of the fore
most lawyers of the nation, has issued a
pamphlet of ten pages, entitled "The Press,
the Politicians, the People, and the Judici
ary." Mr. Brown in a preliminary chap
ter scores the political papers of the country,
with considerable bitterness, for the exclu
sion from their columns of every theory
that does not coincide with the preconceived
opinions of their conductors. His theory is
that papers should present arguments on
both sides of any given question, in order
that the reader may arrive at a just con
clusion. Wo quote:
I am a Republican, and have always been
I am In favor of,Equal Rights in the wider
sense, and I am also an advocate for the
best men in the best and most appropr iate
places. Of course lam opposed, sub jec t to
these views, to mere party proscript on, or
mere party preference. Party adhesion
should never control my choice or my vote
in regard to the candidate of any office when
morally and intellectually ho was more
deserving of that office, and more compo•
tent for the discharge of its duties, than any
competitor whom a political convention
may think proper to nominate. In cases
of equal claim, and equal qualifications, of
course, as a Republican, I should cling to a
Republican nominee. But even this might
depend upon the nature of the post involved
in the party conflict. If the post were
purely political, or would involve some
principle vital to the respective par
ties, of course I should stand by my
party although the adverse nominee
were independently considered enti
tled to a preference. But to come to the
point, in the case of a nomination of a
' Judge of the Supreme Court, or any other
Court, I should be governed, not by the
question whether the candidate was a Re
publican or a Democrat, but whether be
was best adapted to the fulfillment of his
high office; and in saying thin let it be un
derstood, I would not approve of a party
political Judge on either side, nor would .1
vote for any man for such a position who
was bound to any party programme which
might influence him in the discharge of his
high and impartial functions.
I concur in the doctrine of the Democratic
programme " that a wise, upright and fear
less Judiciary is the great bulwark of pub
lic safety and individual Rights," and I
concur also in the truth of the declaration,
" that in the nomination of lleorge Share
wood for a place on the Supreme Bench of
the State, they have selected a man who is
in all respects worthy of the confidence
and support of those who are in favor of au
enlightened, faithful and impartial admin
istration of the Law."
Mr. Brown dissents from the remainder
of the Democratic platform; but this does
not prevent his supporting Judge Shims-
wood. He says:
"Judge Shar . swood in the year IMSI, was
nominated by the Whig Democratic, Na
tional Union Temperance, and Working
men's Conventions, each of which adopted
different platforms. In IStil, he was nomi
nated by the Republican, Union or Inde•
pendent party, and the Democratic conven
tions, each of which had a platform some-
what different from the others. Yet nobody
over dreamt that the variety and contrariety
of the respective programmes had any
connexion with reference to, or influence
upon, the triumphant election of their dis
tinguished and impartial candidate for
judicial honors. The present opposition,
therefore, is a mere party fetch, which THE
PEOPLE IN THEIR STRENGTH SHOULD 3IAO
NANIMOUSLY REBUKE AND DEFEAT."
Of Judge Williams, the Radical candidate
of his own party, Mr. Brown says:
"That the lion. Henry W. Williams,
the Republican nominee for the Supreme
Court, is a gentleman of good abilities, a
man of learning, a graduate of Yale Col
lege, a native of Connecticut, a man of
character and of forty-six years old, (all
of which has been asserted iu his behalf,)
we are by no means inclined to dispute.
We know nothing to the contrary of these
recommendations, nor do wo deny that
he was elected Judge of the District Court
of Allegheny county, in the year 15(11
without organized opposition) But what
does this all amount to? To no more
than con be said of a dozen Judges of the
various Courts of Pennsylvania. How
little Is all this to the practical proof of
the unquestioned and 'undoubted com
petency of Judge Sharswood. No man, I
suppose, will maintain that Judge Sius
wood, except that he was not born In, or
descended Iron, Connecticut, but Is a na•
five of our own Stale, and that he Is fifty
six years old, and that he has spent nearly
one•half of that titne in the able and honor
able dischargoof his high judicial I unctions,
and Is at this line acknowledged to be at
least equal:to the loftiest itidletal incumbent
in this Commonwealth. No man, I suppose,
will for a moment pretend that there could
be any comparison between the rival can
didates, not that we disparage r.
but no man with ill his opportunities
and qualifications could reasonably be ex
pected to possess those claims to the office
which are fnlly accorded to the accumulattsl
learning and approval of more than twenty
years. We have always been opposed to
an elective .1 udiciary. We have always
been opposed to the New York limitation
of sixty years, by which Judge Kent and
other eminent men were excluded from the
Bench. But when a Judge elected estab
lishes his claim to a post, by fidelity and
competency, we are in favor of retaining
him in preference to making n new experi
ment. As to the difference between forty
six and fifty-six years of age, our prefer
ence is for nity-six, as It Implies ten years
additional experience.
The declaration in the platform of the
Williatnspoft Convention that nominated
Judge Willa ms, that the Judiciary of the
State must be placed in harmony with the
sentiments of the Radical party, elicits these
comments front Mr. Brown:
The election of a Judge should have no
connection with party politics. Ho is to
expound, and not to make the law, not to
expound It as a partisan, not to legislate
upon legislation, not to favor the views of
one party or another in the discharge of
his duties, not to consult programmes or
platforms, as limiting or affecting his
opinions, but to. hold himself aloof from all
corrupt and corrupting influence.
It is true, he may be nominated by ono
party or another, or his political predilec
tions may be with one party or the other—
but he is not elected for his prejudices, or
to subservo the prejudices of a party—but
to fulfill the great and important objects of
justice, as he shall answer to this world and
the next. As to pledging himself actuallg
impliedly to support one set of political
views or another, that in itself would be
enough to condemn him in the eyes of all
good men,
There is an apt Illustration of our views
upon this subject In a matter Involving the
prerogative of James the First of England.
•'ln a case where the King believed his pro.
rogativo or interest was concerned, and re
quired the judges and counsel to attend
him for advice, the question was put to the
judges whether they ought not to suspend
proceedings till Lis Majesty consulted them;
all the judges, among whom were Lord
Chancellor Ellosmore and Lord Bacon,
threw themselves upon their knees and
prayed ior pardon, with the exception of
Lord Coke, who when his opinion was de
manded replied—'when the case happens I
shall do that which will be fit for a judge
to do.'"
"flex non ciebet esse sub homine, sed sub
dei et lege." Such should be the true charac
ter of a judge—he should be no trimmer no
pliant tool of power I And it is therefore
altogether objectionable either for the Demo
crats or the Republicans (as they have vir•
tually done) to expect from a judge, in
requittal for his advancement, which no
honest man dares to do—what no honest
constituency should require and no intelli
gent community submit to.
The man who pledges himself in this
diversified world, to any political dogmas
of any party, is unworthy of every party
and totally unlit for a judge. The great
principles of justice should be above parties
and control all parties.
:The conclusion of this remarkable pamph
let—remarkable in the fact that while con
demning both parties it urges the people
who desire an independent, fearless and
pure judiciary, to vote for Judge Shars
wood—we give entire:
I have thought proper to say thus much
upon the principles upon which judges are
constituted, as being pertinent to the
question in which we are more immedi
ately concerned, viz: the candidates at the
approaching Judicial Election.
I say, then, competency is everything and
that admitted age is nothing. The first
question then should be, who is the most
competent man? Now is there a person in
this community if left to_his unbiased rea
son, who could hesitate- in deciding that
question? He has all the facts and daily
jroofs before him. In every essential of a
udge, the President of the District Court
of this County has no superior; in calm
ness,mildness, affability, moderation, in
flexibility and in undoubted learning, be
stands pre-eminent in this political contro
versy.
But, we are told that he is affiliated with
the Democracy. Well, if that consi J eration
should be understood to affect his unbend
ing rectitude and conscientious duty, it un
doubtedly would be a serious objection.
But in the long course of the exercise of his
judicial functions, though it is possible he
may have erred in judgment—for there
is but one Judge that can never err—no
instance can be referred to, calculated to cast
a shadow on the disc of his fair fame.
Now, in regard to his competitor—he we
are told, is a Republican. Well, he is all
the better for that; but as one error should
not blaze a judge (If there be one), so one
virtue should not make a judge ; therefore
mere Republicanism cannot be conclusive
proof of competency But what else is said
in his behalf? He i s but forty-six years
old 1 As I have elsewhere intimated, this is
not an advantage to a judge—long experi
ence is very essential to a judge. Lord
Mansfield was over fifty when he took his
seat as Chief Justice of England and re
mained upon the bench thirty-two years,
when he resigned in possession of all his
faculties, being over the age of eighty years,
and never surpassed by any judge in Eng
land or elsewhere. Chief Justice Marshal
held hispost as long, in the full vigor of in
tellect anti power ; and Chancellor Kent,
who was legislated out of office, died at the
age of eighty-four, in the possession ofjudi,
dal faculties which the combined learning
of all the judges in his State since his time
would scarcely rival.
The fact of Judge Williams being but for
ty-six years old, may be the ground of a
presumption that he, by due efforts, may
live to be an eminentjudge, but we are to
rely rather upon/acts than/alloy. We have
in Judge Sharswood, the assurance of quali
ties that in the case of Judge Williams, at
the best, wo have only the promise of. Which
then, lot mo ask, would be the more reason
able choice? It takes twentw years to make
a lawyer, and even then he has something
to learn. A good judge would require
nearly all that time on the score of mere
legal competency, and ho should necessarily
improve during that time; in his aptitude
for business in his self-control, in his tem
per and demeanor, for all these things enter
into the formation of his judicial character.
Now, can it be supposed that with the few
years that Judge Williams has occupied
the bench at Pittsburg, having compara
tively limited jurisdiction, that he could
have derived those advantages in the for
mation of a Judge, which wore necessarily
acquired and fully exhibited on the part of
his antagonist during more than twenty
years.
But are we told also, that Judge Williams
is a native of Connecticut, and was graduated
with honor, at Yale College. Well, that
cannot be denied—we do not disparage
him on account of his having been born in
another State, or for being educated it
another Institution of learning. Sufficient
answer on that score, is that Judge Snars
wood Is a native of Philadelphia, and took
the first honor at the University of Penn
sylvania.
In conclusion, allow me to say that for
the reasons suggested, I shall vote for Judge
Shorewood. In doing so Ido not fool that
I shall compromise my principles as a
thorough National Republican—in acting
otherwise, I should carry with me the con
sciousness of doing injustice to a meritorious
man, and of inflicting a causeless and a
cureless wound upon the purity, permanen
cy and integrity of the Judiciary. My
term of life is short, but the lessons of this
day may last—in their pernicious and cor
rupt influence—unto the latest posterity.
Let the people, then, think of this, do what
they believe to be right, and stand firmly
by their moral us well as their political
faith. Davin PAUL BROWN.
What n Friend of Lincoln says
Tho following letter from Colonel Ward
11. Lamon to a Conservative meeting lately
held at Bladensburg, Maryland, deserves a
careful perusal. It is pointed, pungent, rind
appropriate to the occasion and the times.
Colonel Lamon was formerly the law part
ner of Abraham Lincoln at Springfield,
Illinois, and was his warm personal and
political friend. When Mr. Lincoln be
came President, he appointed Colonel La
mon United States marshal for the District
of Columbia, which position ho tilled with
honor du ring Mr. Lincoln's administration:
WASLIINOTON CITY, Sept. 19, 1807.—T0
Messrs. P. W. Browning, Dr. Charles
Wells, N. C. Stephens. J. P. Bartholow, B.
I•'. (lily, Samuel Fowler, and others, com
mittee, &c.: Gentlemen— I hnvo received
your invitation to be present and address a
mass meeting of the friends of President
Johnson on the 31st instant. If my profes
sional engagements for that day did not
prevent, I should certainly be with you and
add my voice to swell the prayer of the peo
ple for nn economical and constitutional ad
ministration of the government.
A good citizen can no more adhere to the
dominating faction in Congress, at this criti
cal moment in our country's affairs, thou he
could have given "aid and comfort" to the
public enemy in the late war. The claim
that any partisan majority in the national
legislature represents the people at large in
a closer and Inoro direct manner than the
President is false in fact and theory. Rep
resentatives aro elected by single districts,
and Senators by State Legislatures. The
latter often plot, bargain, and buy the way
to their seats, while the former are floated
In on potty local questions, or little trades
in county politics. On the contrary, the
President is chosen by the whole people,
voting on the sane day, and is essentially
and solely their representative, their tri
bune, mined with their veto, and charged
especially to "preserve, protect, and defend"
their Constitution, They, "the people,"
ordained and aballtakihOli It as "the supreme
law or the land." Mr. Johnson is not the
first President who has had to look to the
holiest part of the oath, and shield that '
sacred instrument against the assaults of a
fierce faction, which claimed to represent
the country. An old neighbor of his, sprung
from the loins of the people, like himself,
fought title same battle over loony years
ago. The victorious issue on that occasion
amply demonstrated the Wisdom of our
fathers in making the President, by organic
lute, the peculiar representative of the whole
people, to check the follies and restrain that
license of Congress to which deliberative
assemblages aro always subject.
If by any fault of his own, or by the hap
less failure of the people to come to his aid,
Andrew Johnson should go down in this
terrible conflict, forced upon him, what
would be the inevitable result to the coun
try? Ho will be itnpeached. The phrase
goes that he will lie punished before trial;
but that is not the word. The triumphant
faction will simply Wreak a terrible and
cowardly revenge upon him. Ile will be
declared suspended, deposed—perhaps mur
dered. A revolutionist will 'teatime his
°ince. Henceforth the election of the Presi
dent is taken out of the hands of the people,
and lodged with Congress. That body can
make and unmake Presidents in a day or
an hour. Will it be said that Congress will
not set such a precedent, because the Radi
cals cannot always expect to possess this
power? If they succeed now, theyjinteed,
by force and fraud, to hold that power, at
least until this generation has passed away.
The present is merely a desperate struggle
to that end. Confessedly acting outside
the Constitution, claiming the rights
to disfranchise the people or exclude
the representatives of any State which
may not agree with them, and hold
ing in the hollow of their hands the ten
"rotten boroughs of the South" to return
Radical Congressmen, white or black, as
they may dictate, they will possess the
power to accomplish any purpose, hot,,K ;
ever revolutionary, however atrocious.
Even now, with the form of government
still unchanged, without a usurper in the
Presidential chair, are not the representa
tives of Kentucky, and the defrauded
Senators of New Jersey and Maryland, to
say nothing of the ten Southern States,
driven from the seats to which they were
elected ? And further, will the live mon•
archs then be withdrawn from one third of
our common country, and our free system
of government extended to the unfortunate
people? On the contrary, we may expect
that they will make them despots in name,
show and parnde, as well as in fact.
They may put crowns on their heads and
sceptres in their hands, and set them to do
ing deeds of tyranny beside which the past
will appear as innocent pastime. We will,
then, present to the world a spectacle even
more singular than wo do now. We shall
have a parent State, a pretended free re
publican, constitutional government loca
ted at Washington, with five outlying des
potisms, blighting its territory, plundering
and decimating its people, Can such mon
sters be born of a free, popular government?
But you mav say the Radicals will with•
draw the viceroys so soon as the negroes
are put in possession of those States, and
the whites are sufficiently ground be
neath the black heels. Not to mention
here that this would he very unpleasant
to the "great Union majorities" which
Mr. Greeley and others always claim
ed in those States, I do not believe
that such a purpose exists. Military, des•
potic, unlimited power is never abandoned
except upon compulsion. Despotism la de
licious to the despot, and when peoples are
freed from his power they achieve it by their
own good swords. In the meantime, it
would be cruel pleasantly to compare the
condition of those States with that of Ire
land, Hungary, Candle, or any other peo•
ple on the globe. They produce but half
what their industries ought to make now,
but when the negro and the soldier contend
over the entirely ruined and prostrate coun
try they will produce nothing. The great
staples will disappear from our commerce
We have said the North must carry the
debt of the war without aid from the quar
ter where we had a right to expect it. The
President's hands are tied by a tenure of
office bill, passed to shield a horde of
corrupt officials, fastened upon the govern
ment, and all banded together in one great
combination to elect a Radical President.
Revenue to the amount of hundreds of
millions (witness "whisky frauds" alone)
remains uncollected, through the unparal
leled corruption of financial agents. Not
only must one-third of our territory be
made desolate ; not only must the laboring
North be taxed to support a standing army
and negro governments in ten States, but
must bo fleeced and mortgaged in the way
of these stupendous frauds, to Insure its
own subjugation to the Radical party.
But we all hope that the hour of our deliv
erance is at hand. Every State that speaks,
from California to Maine, Speaks in defense
of the Constitution and the President who
upholds it. If the coming elections result
as the late ones have, we will see the fallen
framework of our constitutional govern
ment reared again, and the pillars of repub
lican liberty fixed to stand unmoved for
ever.
I have the honor to be your obedient ser
vant,, WARD H. LAMON,
Rules nor the Redemption Cents et the
The following has been issued by the Di
rector of the Mint at Philadelphia:
Numerous letters are daily received
at the Treasury department making inqui
ries fis to the redemption of cents—whether
any premium is allowed upon them, par
ticularly those of 1857, Jac. It appears that
dealers in various parts of the country have
accumulated so many of this de:fcription
that it is an interesting question to that class
how to dispose of them. It was in view of
reducing tne quantity of centsin circulation
and of obtaining a partial supply of nickels
in convenient form that the Director of the
United States Mint was authorized by the
Secretary of the Treasury, some time ago,
to purchase the nickel cents, paying the
nominal value In three and five cent nickel
pieces. This was commenced on the 10th
of June, and is continued under the follow
in rules:
1. Persons sending or bringing the nickel
cents will receive a certificate of the weight
thereof, and the amount payable in three
or five cent nickel pieces, or both, as they
may desire ; and with their endorsement
thereon such certificates will be paid as soon
as the coins are ready.
2. They must bo careful not to send any
but the kind mentioned, which aro readily
known by the color and sizes and by the
dates 1837 to 18414.
3. The pieces will bo takon, not by count,
but by avoirdupois or grocer's woluht. No
lot under ton pounds, nor fraction of a
pound, will be received, and no spoiled,
doubtful or illegible pieces will bo taken.
4. The reasonable expense of the trans
portation of the three cent plaices in Hums
of thirty dollars, and the live cent coins in
sums of fifty dollars or upwards, to any
point accessible by railroad or steamboat,
will be paid by the mint ; but the expense
of transporting the nickel cents to the mint
must be paid by the parties sending them.
5. This arrangement will be rev4ed as
soon as it is found that the issue of three and
live cent pieces is likely to become too large,
or that the abatement of cents Is sufficient.
The public may bo assured that none of
the cents herein mentioned have any special
value. The sole object of this operation Is
to cooler a public beuelit.

Sod Letter from Herschel V. Johnson
Ex-Gov. Johnson writes to a politic.
friend in Michigan:
"The future darkness is scarcely relieved
by a single ray of hope. And it seems that
we have not reached the ' lowest deep' of
our woe. The ruling powers seem bent
upon our still greater humiliation. The
theme is one on which it is too painful to

the sceptre of statesmanship to blind and
vindictive passion. What is to be the result
God only knows, and Ho only can rescue
the country from the worst fate that over
fell upon a once free, prosperous, and happy
people. Perhaps you may be, in some
degree, interest in what is personal to

But when my State resolved upon it, least

and, though I uover cherished au emotion
of hostility to the Constitution, or the Union
of our forefathers under it—though I have
spent a quarter of u century lu trying to
uphold both—yet now I find myself, at the

and civil rights, inferior to that of my for
