THE POLITICAL BIGHTS OF REBELS AND
TRAITORS
The following important correspondence has
taken place between General Wallace and Go.
vernor Bradford„ of Maryland:
LETTER OF GENERAL WALL ACE.
HEADQUARTERS, MIDDLE - DEPARTMENT,
EIGHTH ARMY CORPS, BALTIMORE, MD., March
80,1864: = His Excellency,Gov...d. fV.Badford:
DEAR SIR: Herewith please find official copies
of papers - , a glance at which will doubtless sa.
tisty you that persons disloyal to the Govern
ment of the United States are candidates for
the Constitutional Convention, the election for
which takes place on the 6th of April next. It
is hardly necessary for me to say that I am
deeply interested in the prevention of the
scheme disclosed, and as my offer of co-opera
tion in all matters calculated to promote the
welfare of the people of Maryland was very
kindly received by you, I am encouraged to
ask a question touching'a subject about which
your Excellency's official opinion is entitled to
the most distinguished consideration.
As the oath which the law providing for a
Convention requires you to administer to dele
gates elect, before taking their ,seats, was evi
dently intended to exclude disloyal persons from
participation in the deliberation of that body, I
have thought it possible that it was also the
legislative intention to provide a method for
the rejection, at the polls, of the votes of dii
loyal men, and that the power, amounting to
judicial authority (according to my, interpreta
tion of the act), with which the judges of elec.
lion are. clothed, was really the mode adopted
by the law-makers for the accomplishment of
that purpose.
Your Excellency would oblige me very much,
therefore, by giving me your views as to the
extent of authority posSessed by the judges of
Election, and especially as to whether they
have power to reject a vote on account of the
disloyalty of the person offering it?
I will avail myself of the first opportunity to
disclose to your Excellency the circumstances
which, in my judgment, make it my - duty to
advise with you touching the subject.
Meantime I have the honor to remain, most
respectfully, your friend and very obedient
servant, •

REPLY OF GOTZMNOR BRADFORD.
STATE OF MARYLAND; EXECUTIVE DKPA.RT•
NEWT, Ai:nitrous, March 31, 1864.—Major-
General Lew. Wallace Commanding Middle
Depariment:—DEAß SIR-I received yonr let
ter of 30th instant in which, premising that
persons disloyal to the Government of the
United States are candidates for the Constitu
tional Convention, the election for which takes
place in this State on the 6th of April next, and
referring to the oath, which by the law provid
ing for that Convention its members are re
quired to take before they are entitled to seats
therein; you suggest that it was probably also
the legislative intention to provide for the re
jection of the votes of disloyal persons at that
election, and that the Judges of Election are
Tested with an authority to that effect. Yon,
therefore, request me to give you my views as
to the extent of the authority possessed by the
Judges on that subject.
It gives me pleasure to comply with this re
quest, and to state as - explicitly and as briefly
as I can my views of the power possessed by
cur 'Judges of Election in tbe premiseth
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY APRIL 2. 1864.-" TRIPLE SHEET.
By a clause in our election laws as it has ex
isted for many years, it is- provided that "the.
Judges of Election may administer an'oath in
any inquiry they may deem necessary to be
made touching the right of any person to vote;
and if any person shall swear falsely in, rela
tion thereto, he shall upon conviction thereof
suffer the pains and penalties of perjury." The
effect of this provision was to authorize the
adminietration of an oath by the judges in any
inquiry touching the right of a person offering
to vote; but whilst the oath was thereby/legal
ized, and a party swearing falsely was sub
jected to the penalties of perjury, there was
nothing in the law which required the judge to
administer such oath. This omission so far at
least as the election of the 6th of April next is
concerned has been supplied by the act of the
General Assembly under which that electionis
to be held.
By the terms of that act it is no longer a dis
cretionary authority with the Judge to ad
minister an oath or not, but it is made his duty
to do so,,and especially in the language of that
act "to every person offering to vote whose
vote shall be challenged on the ground that
such persot has served in the rebeFarmy, or
has either directly or indirectly given aid, com
fort- or encouragement to those in armed rebel
lion against the Government of the United
States."
The fact to be ascertained, is whether the
voter has served in the rebel armies, or di
rectly or indirectly aided, comforted or encou
raged those engaged in the present rebellion,
and whilst the Judge is required wherever a
voter is challenged on such ground to ad
minister an oath to him, he should not con
tent himself with the mere denial, in genera'
terms, by the one so challenged, that he
has ever aided, comforted or encouraged
the rebels, but would be authorized, and I think
required, to test the recollection of the party
swearing by propounding to him particular in
terrogations, suggestive of different modes by
which this aid, comfort or encouragement may
have been given—precisely as when a voter is
challenged on the ground of a want of residence,
the mere general affirmation upon oath of the
party challenged would not be considered suffi
cient proof of his residence, but he would be
required to state time, place and circumstance
upon which a proper judgment as to the ques
tion of residence might be formed.
Neither is the Judge in case of a challenge
on any account concluded by the answers of the
party challenged, but he is fully authorized to
administer an oath to any other who may be
present and cognizant of facts having a relation
to the question.
It will, of course, occur to you, from the acts
which I have quoted, that the giving at any
time since the commencement of the existing
rebellion, either directly or indirectly, of aid,
comfort or encouragement thereto is, so far as
the coming election is concerned, the dis
qualification of a voter; for the General
Assembly would not have imposed upon the
Judge of Election the duty of inquiring into
these facts if, when their existence was estab
lished, the voter could still exercise the right
of suffrage. I know that it May be said that
the General Assembly possessed no power to
prescribe the qualifications of a voter, and that
these are established by the Constitution; but
without entering into any discussion upon this
point, or as to the extent of the Judge's power
to inquire into and determine the question of
citizenship—one of the constitutional qualifica
tions to be possessed by the' voter—it is suffi
cient to know that the General Assembly has
declared that certain - acts shall disqualify the
voter at this election.
Such is the law of the State authorizing and
regulating said election and no one can Law
fully question the constitutionality of that law
until some court of competent authority has
declared it unconstitutional. This is a prero
gative belonging to our courts alone, and, even
as a judicial function, is the exercise of a power
of a grave and delicate character, and only
warranted in a clear case. -
I think, therefore, sir, that from this very
hasty and imperfect review of our laws upon
the subject, you will agree with me in believ
ing that they are entirely sufficient, if faith
fully executed, as I have every reason to hope
they will be, to exclude disloyal voters.from
the polls.
The duty of our Judges of Election, is, it
seems to me, in this respect,clearly defined and
adequately enforced. By the 7th section of
the Convention act it is provided that any
Judge of Election who shall refuse or neglect
to perform any of the duties required of him
by that act "shall be liable to indictment for
much offence, and upon conviction thereof shall
be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and be
sentenced to a fine of not less than $5OO and
to imprisonment in the jail of the city or
county where such offence may have been
committed, for a term of not less than siz
months."
In conclusion, permit me to say, I shall be
at all times pleased to confer with you in all
matters connected with your command touch
ing the interests of the people of this S tato. -
I have the honorio be, with great respect,
your obedient servant,

OFFICE OF THE
GREAT CENTRAL Fitlß
,FOR THE
SANITARY COMMISSION,
PHILADELPHIA, 1307 OHESTNUT STREET,
MARCH, leSt
The CoMmittee on Finance and Donations of the
Great Central Fair, appeal for contributions in
money, to those of their fellow-citizens who do not
propose sending to the Fair the productsof their
skill and industry. By far the larger portion of
the money received on the occasion of the Fairs
held for the benefit of the Sanitary Commission in
Cincinnati, Boston, and Brooklyn, was derived
frdm direct donations in cash, and not from the
proceeds of the sale of articles exposed. What
the Sanitary Commission needs to afford
relief to the sick and wounded soldiers
Is money, in large amounts and from
all sources. We call, -then,-upon all bank
ers, corporations, capitalists, personsliving upon
incomes, professional or otherwise; in .Short,
upon all who will notbe represented in he Fair by
their productions, to imitate the example of those
who will, and to contribute liberally in MONET
for this great object. In New York, although
their Fair is not to be held for two weeks, contri
butions of more than V 200,000 in cash have been
already received,. a single department of trade,
that of dry goods, having made up more than half
that sum. Brooklyn and Cincinnati have each
contributed as much in money, and certainly the
wealth, liberality and patriotism of Philadelphia
can hardly be considered as less conspicuous than
that of these communities. Contributions will be
thankfully received by any of the members of
the Committee.

THE GREAT .
CENTRAL FAIR,
FOR THE
Sanitary Commission.
Philadelphia, 1307 Chestnut Street.
February 20, 1864.
The undersigned, members of the Executive
Committee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR for
the Sanitary Commission, beg to invite the co-ope
ration of all their fellow-citizens, especially of
those resident in Pennsylvania, Delaware and
New Jersey, in this important enterprise. It is
proposed to hold the Pair in Philadelphia, in the
FIRST 'WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and it is con
fidently expected that the contributions. coming
from a popula ion so benevolent and patriotic as
that which inhabits the Central States, and repre
senting the most important and varied branches of
Industry and art, will secure a result in 'aid of the
funds of the Commission, and for the benefit of
the Soldier, at least equal 'to that which has at.
tended similar undertakings in other cities. it
is not necessary to say a word to stimulate sym
pathy for the soldier. We feel for them all /as
brethren, and the popular heart seeks only the
best mode of manifesting that sympathy in the
most efficient and practical way. These fairs in
other places have been productive of great results.
By this means Chicago has recently raised for this
object 160,000, Boston 8159,000, and Cincinnati
more thin 8200,000. We appeal, then, witt e the
greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the n.
tral States, especially to those who constitute the
great industrial classes„, to send as contribution
the productions of their skill and workmanship.
We appeal to them in the interest of no party,
radical or conservative, Republican or Democratic,
Administration or anta-Adminletration. - We know
only this, that to send our national soldiers in the
field supplies to supplement those Goverment un
dertakes to give them, but which they sometimes
fail to receive, and thus to relieve them when sick
and in misery, is a wont of Christian charity, and
that it is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
which, under God, the nation depends in this its
time of trouble.
' We therefore ask every clergyman to announce
this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad
vise them to do what they can to further it. We
ask the press to give it the widest publicity and the
most earnest encouragement. We call on every
workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of the
best thing it can turn out;, on every artist, great
and small, for one of his creations ; on all loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try ; on farmers, for the products of their fields
and dairies. The miner, the natpralist, the man
of science;.the traveler, can each Tend scmething
that can at the very least be converted into a
blanket that.will warm, and may save from death,
some one soldier whom government supplies have
failed to reach. Every one who can produce any
thing that bps money value is invited to give a
sample of his best work as an offering to the cause
of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic
or farmer, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a
barrel of apples, is called on to contribute some
thing that can be turned into money, and again
from money into the means of economizing the
health and the life of our national soldiers.
Committees have been appointed in each depart
inent of industry as d art, whose business it will
be to solicit contributions for • the Fair, each in its
own special branch. 4 hese Committees will place
themselves in communisation with those persons
who may wish to aid us. In the meantime it is
recommended that local committees or associations
should be formed in every portion of Pennsylva
nia, Delaware and New- Jersey, with a view of
organizing the industry of their respective neigh
borhoods, so as to secure contributions for the
Fair.
Committees of Ladies have also been organized
to co operate with those of the gentlemen in soli
citing contributions.
A list of. all these Committees will be shortly
published sad distributed. In the meantime those
who are divested to aid us, or who may desire any
farther information on the subject, are requested
to address CHARLES J. STILLE, Corresponding
