Towanda, Thursday, March 21,1867. SENATOR CAMERON. The following appears in the Har risburg Telegraph, and is, we presume, published by authority of Gen. CAM- ; ERON him sell. While we have never for a mqpient supposed that Gen. C. | would occupy any other position, or 1 that he would stoop to ask a favor of President JOHNSON, we are glad to j see this positive announcement, as it may serve to dissuade some Repub-i lican from seeking an office which might be supposed to be within his reach. The Administration does not refuse in all cases to appoint Radical Republicans to office, and there would be no surer way to debauch and de- j moralize week-kneed men than by in spiring them with hopes of success ful applications for office. The \Trle graph says—"if iSimon Cameron's counsels had been heeded Andrew Johnson would uot to-day be the acting President of the United States, because he steadily and for sound reasons opposed his nomina tiou for the Vice Presidency. We i mention this to show that Senator j Cameron never had confidence in An drew Johnson. His speech to the Pennsylvania Legislature, after his late election for the third term as U. | I S. Senator, was a reiteration of his j j want of confidence in Johnson. We j refer to these facts in order that those ! who expect Senator Cameron to help them to office in the gift of Andrew Johnson, may know exactly his atti tude towards the President. Our Senator will ask for no offices from the acting President. He is not bound to do this for Copperheads, and has too much respect for Republicans to assist them in degrading them selves in a hunt for such favors. It is proper that those who seek office from Johnson should understand Sen ator Cameron's position at Washing ton. He did not go there to barter in Johnson's patronage. He will vote for no nominations only when he is convinced they will serve the high est public 1 interests, but in no case will Senator Cameron urge the appli cation of any man for appointment to office in the gift of the President. We have authority for stating this determination." JUDGE OF THE SUPREME COURT, The uarnes of a number of gentle meD, eminent for their legal abilities, have been brought forward as can didates for Judge of the Supreme Court of this State, which office is to be filled at the uext election Among the gentlemen thus suggested is Judge LINN, of Centre county, who is well known to many of our citi zens, having formerly resided at this place. Judge LINN, has presided for some years upon the bench, and has an excellent reputation as a sound lawyer, and an upright and able judge. The Tioga County Agitator brings forward Judge WILLIAMS, of that ; county. Ho is deserving of the high | enconiums pronounced by that paper. . Judge W. has presided iu the Courts | of this county, and made a very fa ! vorable impression. Hon. JOSHUA W. COMI.V, of Montour county, is a very prominent candidate. The Montour American speaks of him in the following very flattering man ner, which we cordially endorse : We are pleased to see so many of our ex changes acknowledge the commanding tal ents and the eminent fitness of Joshua W. Comly, Esq., for the Supreme Bench of the State. A number of journals throughout the commonwealth accept him as their first choice, whilst others having local candidates, whom they support of course, decline him as their second choice. There are a host of names mentioned in connection with the position : but of all pro posed. no one is more generally admitted as the right man, than is Mr. Comly. A paper now before us, prefers him before all others, "on account of his mature legal ability, and because that (this) part of the State is entitled to the candidate." The ar ticle concludes with, "we trust that the claims of Mr. Comly will be fairly consider ed." Let the claims and the qualifications of those named for the place, be fully can vassed, in a spirit of impartiality, and with an eye single to the best interests of the State, and we doubt not, Mr. Comly will be the choice of the convention. THE XF.W HAMPSHIRE ELECTION'. The annual election in New Hamp shire occurred and a Gov ernor, three members of Congress, a Legislature and the State officers were elected. This being the first State election for the current year, more interest attaches to it thuu usu al. It will he followed in a lew days by Connecticut, a State still more evenly balanced thau New Hamp shire. The canvass in New Hamp shire has been sharply defined. The actiou of Congress has been boldly avowed on the one hand, and the policy of the President, with a few improvements, as frankly accepted on the other. The Gubernatorial candidates were General Walter Harrimau, who had for years been a leading Democratic preacher and pol itician, but who quit the party aud entered the army when the rebellion j broke out, on the Union side ; and | John G. Sinclair, a prominent and j consistent Copper throughout. The Republican candidates for Congress were Jacob H. Ela, in Gen. Martson's district,the first; Gen. A. F. Stevens, in Mr. Rollins' district, the second, j aud Jacob Benton in the third, repre- i sented by Prof. Patterson, lately el- ! ected to the United States Senate. The Democratic nominees were Hon. j Daniel Marcy in the first, E. W. Har- i rington in the second, aud Harry! Bingham in the third. The election resulted in a more j complete victory than was generally expected, Harrimau's majority, is in the neighborhood of 3000—a little less than the caleolations indicated. The Congressional districts are all carried by average, calculated, ma jorities of a thousand. Three-fourths of the State Senate, four-fifths of the Council and a great majority in the House, are also the fruits of a well fought battle. Such a beginning as this is most favorable tor the elec tions which are quickly to follow in other States, and will encourage our friends to increased effort. .from tjarrisburg. Special Correspondence of THE BRADFORD REPORTER. HARRISBURO, PH., March 18, 1867. The Senate has passed a supplement to an act granting the courts power to appoint road viewers, Ac., which extends the jiowt-rs of said courts to vacate public and private roads, streets and alleys in any unincorpor ated village, to all public and private roods, streets and alleys, in any plan of lots now. or which may be hereafter, laid out in the I Commonwealth. An act relating to dower has also been passed by the Senate, providing that in case any person has died, or shall hereafter die, leaving a widow and last will and testament, and such widow has elected, or shall elect, not to take under the will, but claims dower at common law, and the same has not yet been fixed, it shall be lawful for the Orphan's Court of the county in which the land sub ject to such dower is situated, on petition of the widow and persons interested, to ap point seven men to appraise such real estate with its improvements ; or to award an in quest to be held by the Sheriff, ascertain the value of the land or such portions thereof as may be asked to be appraised. After such appraisement has been had and confirmed by the Orphan's Court, the said lands shall Ire charged with and subject to the yearly in terest accruing on the one-third of the valu ation moneys, which shall be paid to the widow annually during her life, by the own er or occupier of the said land. The inter est accruing as aforesaid may be recovered in the same manner as the interest of the widows of intestates when the land has been appraised and accepted by the heirs under the intestate laws is recoverable. The question of granting the Governor power to commute the death punishment in certain cases, has become one of great im portance, owing to the fact that there are in some of our prisons individuals long since convicted of murder, and sentenced to be hung, but whose time of execution has never been fixed by the Executives. In order that such persons may be relieved of the sus pense that has so long rendered them miser able, the Senate has passed an act providing that in cases of convictions or, and sentence for, murder in the first degree, the Governor may, upon the petition of the person con victed, grant to such convict a pardon, upon such condition, with such restrictions, and with such limitations, as he deems proper ; and he may issue his warrant to all proper officers to carry such pardon into effect; Provided, That in all cases in which sent ence of death shall hereafter be pronounced, no conditional pardon shall be granted, un less a majority of the judges of the court be fore whom the convict hath been tried, (one of whom shall be a presiding Judge) shall advise or recommend such pardon. The act confers no right to expatriate any con vict. An act to regulate the carriage of baggage by railroads has been passed by the Senate. It allows each passenger one hundred pounds of baggage, not over S3OO in value, for which the company shall be responsible if said baggage is placed in the baggage car, but the company is not liable for any article taken into a car in which the passenger is riding. A change in the general fee bill is about being made. Under the old law, county of ficers whose income was over $1,500 were required to pay into the State Treasury fifty per cent, of the surplus. The present bill, as it passed the House, requires such officers to pay to the State Treasurer fifty per cent on surplus over $2,000, after deducting clerk hire and office rent. The Senate will doubt less pass the bill before this letter is put in print, and become a law by the early ap proval of the Governor. The main feature of the act is to fix in detail the fees at a ra tio of twenty-five per cent, advance, in ac cordance with the advance granted by the Legislature during the late war. The Senate has repealed the first section of "an act to provide for the destruction and to prevent the spread of Canada This tles," approved March 22, 1862, so far as re lates to the county of Bradford. The sec tion referred to, made every person liable to a fine of SSO for allowing Canada Thistles to grow on his premises. The House has passed finally an act relat ing to the fees of the District Attorney of the county of Greene, after amending it so J as to apply, also, to Sullivan county. The Senate passed finally the bill to trans fer Monroe, Pike, Wayne, Susquehanna, Bradford, Wyoming, Luzerne and Carbon counties, and add the same to the Northern District of the Supreme Court. Mr. W'kbb has presented to the House a ! petition from citizens of Bradford county, praying for the passage of a law to compel the Northern Central railroad to fence the road now now occupied by them, formerly known as the Williamsport and Elmira rail road. Also, a petition from citizens of Bradford county, praying for a law taxing dogs. Also, a petition from one hundred and seventy-six citizens of Granville Township, Bradford county, praying for a repeal of so much of the Act of 1856, giving local boun ty to veterans, as relates to said township. Mr. WEBB read in place, in the House, an act to reduce the number of School Direc tors in the several school districts in the county of Bradford, and to pay the same. Also, a bill to extend the act providing for the assessment of seated lands in the town ships where the mansion house is situated, in the borough of Rome, in the county of j Bradford, for school purposes. | The Legislature has determined to fix the t legal weight of grain, etc. The "figures" are as follows : Wheat, per bushel, 60 lbs., rye 56, shelled corn 56, cob corn, 70, corn meal 40, coarse salt 70, ground salt 62, fine salt 47, barley 47, oats 32, turnips 55, onions 36, peas 56, malt 38, unslaeked lime 80, an thracite coal 80, bituminous coal 40, pota toes 56, sweet potatoes 54, flax seed 56, bran 20, beans 56, dried peaches 38, dried apples 25. A bill has been passed authorizing the ap pointment of phonographic reporters for the several courts of Common Pleas in the State. Affairs are quiet at the Capital. Nothing of importance has transpired since my last. REX. A destructive fire occurred at Kokouie, Ind., Monday morning. One of the best business blocks in the place was entirely destroyed. Personal and Political —'The Michigm Democratic State Convention held ut Detroit on Wednesday nominated Sanford M. Green, Chief-Justice ot the Supreme Court, und Wm. M. Ferry, Jr., and Ebenezer Wells, Regents of the University. Resolutions were adopted de nouncing the Reconstruction Bill, uud de claring the enfranchisement of negroes and the disfranchisement of whites, by preten ded Congressional action,as unconstitution al. arbitrary and revolutionary. —The Rhode Island Democratic State Convention, held at Providence, nom inated Lyman Pierce, of Providence, for Governor ; Gideon H. Purfee. of Tiverton, Lieutenant-Governor : W. J. Miller, of Bris tol, Secretary of ttate ; George M. Bliss, of East Providence, Attorney-General, and James Atkinson, General Treasurer. —The lower branch of the Massa chusetts Legislature has passed the Consti tutional Amendment by a vote of 120 yeas to 20 nays. —Gov. Geukius, of Georgia, has left home tor Washington, to consult with the President and Congress in reference to the status of Georgia under the recent en actments. —A letter lrom Gen. Geo. 11.

Benjamin, the ex-rebel Secretary of State, is now an English bar rister—with wig and gown—and, at last ac counts, was counsel against the United States in a case in London. —Ex-Gov. Curtiu sailed from New York, Saturday, for Havre. He leaves his family in Philadelphia, and will be absent on a tour to Europe, for several months. —President Jolt isou has beeu hav ing another of his talks. This time the ed itor of the New York Citizen is the recipient of his confidence. Having failed to put traitors to rule over us, he now wants to punish the loyal section by repudiating the national indebtedness. —General Cameron stands credited with the pledge to allow no Presidential nominee to be confirmed, if be can help it, who is not genuine Republican. It is very much like the General to make that pledge, and, having taken the position, it will be like him to maintain it. —Philip F. Thomas has been elect ed JJ. S. Senator lrom Maryland for six years from the 4th of March last. He is a virluent copperhead. —The New York Assembly, on Wednesday, voted down a proposition to let negroes in that State vote for delegates to the Constitutional Convention. —The Rebel Gen. Mahone,referring to the Reconstruction laws, says there are but two things left for the South to do— fight or surrender ; and since it has neither men, money, guns, ships, or anything with which to carry on war, he thinks it plain that submission to the demands of the con queror must ensue. UNITED STATES SENATOR MR. EDITOR. —In January, 1809, the Legislature will be called upon to elect a man to take the place of lion. C. R. Buckalew. in the Senate of the United States. I have been pleased to see that on several occasions, you have referred favorably, in connec tion with this position to lion. Geo. Laudon, now State Senator from the Eleventh district. If there is any force in the argument based- upon locality, the northern part of the State can present a very strong claim. Samuel M'Kean was United States Senator for one term, over thirty years since, and David Wil mot for two years, six years ago. With these exceptions, it is believed the northern part of the State has never had a United States Senator. It is true, that no Senator should be local in his views and official acts, aud yet it proper that the different sections of the State should have their representative. Especially is this the case in the larger States in which there is a great diversity of employment and nationality. The northern counties can present etrong claims upon another ground. With the exception of the ones ly ing in the northeast corner of the State, these counties are all strong ly Republican, and have been since the formation of the party. It is be lieved that no other seven contiguous counties in the State have given uni formly as large Republican majori ties as have these counties in the "northern tier." Now, we allow that the claim based upon locality, as the one based upon Republican majorities, should fall to the ground, unless the north can present a good man. We do not say the only good man—for we believe there are many good men in the State for that position—but a man eminently well qualified for the place. Such a man we offer in the person of Hon. G. Landou. He is now serving on the second year of his second term in the State, and his course iu that body is the best rec ommendation that he can have. He is an accomplished scholar, a scien tific and practical farmer, a man of fine ability, an able debater, and one of the best speakers in the State. Mr. Landon was engaged in plead ing the cause of the oppressed and down trodden years before slavery culminated in the rebellion, and was, therefore, naturally a Republican in politics. He is not hasty in forming opinions, but when be has concluded that a principle is right, he is firm and unyielding in his adherence to it, bold and fearless in its advocacy,and terrible in his denunciation of wrong, injustice and oppression. Daring the war his voice gave no uncertain sound ; over the hills of his own country it rang ont in cries for vol unteers, who always responded with alacrity, and when clouds of gloom hung over our country he was hope ful, aud, by word and act, cheered on the despairing. Such a man do the Republicans of the " northern tier " present as a candidate for the United States Senate at the election in 1869. A NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIAN —Harrisburg Telegraph. Telegraphic despatches from the West bring accounts of the most destructive freshets ever known since the settlement of the country. Throughout the whole valley of the Mississippi the streams seem to have overflown their banks and deluged the adjacent country, sweeping off or destroying property of every des cription, and in some cases causing the loss of many lives. This is more especially the case with the Btreams which take their rise in the Alle ghauies. The damages sustained in East Tennessee are frightful to con template, and much suffering among the people must inevitably result.— Along the Ohio aud several of its allluents, hundreds of fertile farms have been completely inundated and all their fences aud improvements swept away. As yet it is impossi ble to approximate the losses sus tained, but it is evident that they must be such as will be felt for years to come, and many persons have doubtless beeu reduced at oue from allluence to poverty. THE INCOME TAX. The new Income Tax went into effect March 1, and all incomes lrom gains, profits from property, rent, in terest, dividends, or salaries from any trade or any employment, a tax on the amount so derived over one thousand dollars, ot five per cent Aud in addition to one thousand dollars exempt from income tax, all national, State, county, aud munici pal taxes paid within the year shall be deducted from the gains, profits, or income of the person who has ac tually paid the same, whether such person be owner, tenant, or mort gagor ; losses actually sustained during the year arrisiug from fires, shipwrecks, or incurred in trade, and debts ascertained to be worthless, but excluding all estimated depre ciation of values and losses within the year or on sales of real estate purchased two years previous to the year for which income is estimated ; the amount actually paid for labor or interest by any person who rents lauds, or hires labor to oultivate laud, or who conducts any other bus iness from which income is actually derived ; the amount actually paid by auy person for the rent of the house or premises occupied as a res idence for himself or his family ; the amount paid out lor usual or ordi nary repairs ; l'rovided, that no de duction shall be made for auy amount paid out for new buildings, perma nent improvements, or betterments, made to increase the value of any property or estate. In estimating the gains, profits, and income of any person, there shall be included all income derived from interest up on notes, bonds, and other securities of the United States ; profits realized within the year from sales of real estate purchased within the year or within two years previous to the year for which income is estimated : interest received or accrued upon all notes, bonds and mortgages, or other forms of indebtedness bearing in terest, whether paid or not, if good aud collectable, less the interest which has become due from said per 8' n during the year. The administrative sections of the new act rel ite almost entirely to the collection of the tax on distilled spirits. Ntto SliiDertisenuntß.
