    A Free Railroad Law.
WP sirterelyt - . -- rfjpine - Aritie Agitation
Matiy of the . State
in favor of the enactment of a gene
free railNad deco, under, which railroad
companies may be organized by all who
have the requisite capital, subject to cer-
AXO"guaratittes, an&wittput :beittg wider
ihe harrow or legislative' corruption on
the one hand, .or the exorbitant de
mands of a despotic railway monopoly on
thrlOther- tteriL btx.,Alirsfa r e of jus
tice left in the government of this com
monwealth, we shall have such a law pass
ed-I'lml To this Coil, however, it
is essential that we should everywhere
look more closely into the position of the
legislativeeMcdiilatett on' this great ques
tion, and we trust that all true men, of
both parties, either in Philadelphia or the
adjoining counties, will make it a point to
demand of their candidates such written
committals on this subject as shall leave
-Aci;doubtireinaining concerning their fu
ture course.
We say this because public sentiment I
bo everywhere rapidly devel
oping itself in favor of such a law, and no
ode seems to be bold enough to oppose it
openly. Powerful as the monopoly may
be, and potent as the money influence
may prove, it is not probable that any
member of either house would fail to
abide by a ,written pledge to sustain and
vote a tree railroad law; and from what
we know of the disposition; of members of
Legislatures, we. are of opinion that a
large majority would cheerfully accept
such an act as affording them material re
lief from never ending harrasstnent at
each succeeding session, by the agents of
railroad c ompanies. We are therefore
sanguine that - the measure is destined to
be speccssfid, though without regard to
ibat we lend it our heartiest aid and as
sent, now and henceforth, as we believe
it to he founded on right and justice and
caliallated to enhance Very largely the
material prosperity of the commonwealth.
Such a law isnot an untried experiment
tobe lbriked tit doubtfully. The great and
flourisliegState of New York dives no
small share of her advancement to just;
such a statute which has long been in op
eration there, and without which her two
immense railroad
. corpprations, the 'Erie'
and the 'Central;' would probably have
playt d the same game in the Legislature

would doubtless long since have left us
far out of sight in the railroad race. Even
as it is she has maiiaged to keep well up
with us through her free railroad system,
our vast. wealth of iron, coal, petro
leum, marble, lumber, Sc., and our im
mense agricultural and manufacturing in
terests are chained down to accommoda
tiOnstotaly inadequate for their proper
developement.
Almost every et - putty in the State hat

this account, and longing for the comple

were likely we should be :tsar ready to

"the EisEimfOatiOn of Ikerritt
Mr. Rogers, of New Jersey, one of the
members of the House Committee on the
JaiCW.3f, 'ivbo waiiiiiit present when Dr.
Tames B. Merritt, (not Meredith, as pub
lished,) was examined, called Win before
the official reporter and went through a
most thorough cross-examination of this
gentleman. It is said that the cross-ex
amination showetlxthat his principal evi
dence was void of truth, and that he real
ly knew nothing corinecting any person
with any transaction not recognized by
the usages.of w ar. hat his attempt to
connect Davis, Clay, i Sanders and others
with the assassination of Lincoln was a
pure fabrication, as he admitted on his
cross examination that he saw or knew
no act or thing connecting the above
named persons with it, ; One very remar
kable fact was elicited in his examination,
wherein he admitted that the Secretary
of War, Edwin M. Stanton, had paid him
between five and six thousand dollars for
his services as a witness before the Mili
tary Commission which tried the conspir
ators. Ile made another admission that,
to make up the sum paid to him by Mr.
Stanton, was included over $1,400 for
book accounts . and claims which he had
againStthe - people•ofCanadilor services
he pretended to have rendered to them as
a physician. lle alleging as an excuse for
being unable to collect his claims against,
the Canadians, that he was compelled to
leave there as soon as it was ascertained
he had given his testimony before the
Military Commission. Ile stated further
that he refused to come here and be a wit
ness Ana Secretary Stanton sent him a
dispatch promiiing hiin a sale passport,
and protection here from arrest as a con
spiratorin the assassination plOt. He al

the conspirators to take the life of Lin
coln. This is certainly the most. remarka
ble case of consequential damages that has
ever coma under- our -n,otice. We expect
to hearbefore lonb. that Merritt has been
awarded some thousands more by our
complaisant War Secretary to indemnify
him for the loss %ilia mould have been
paid him by patients who mould have em
ployed him if his notorious perjuries had
not madellim more odious to the Cana
dians than his vilest physic.
Win: NEGROES VOTE. IN WISCONSIN.—
Negroes are now voting in Wisconsin. In
1849 the Legidatnre submitted the ques
tion of negro suffrage to the people, agree
ably to a clause of the Constitution, which
required that " a majority of all the votes
cast at such•eleution shquld beltecessary
for perniitting negroes to vo,Le. Out of a
poll 0f65'000 between five and six thou
;
sand. were cast fOr and between four and
five thousand against—not more than
11,000 or 12,000 in all, a minority of the
whole vote "cast at such election."
The Governor and State canvassers de
termined that negro suffrage was not car
ried, and so the people believed during the
following seventeen years ; but recently
the Supreme Court of the State techni
cally decided that a majority of votes "on
that question " was all that the law re
quired. - And so the mass of the people,
though opposed to negro suffrage, have to
submit, because seventeen years ago the
people thought that it was unnecessary to
vote against the mere handful of -Aboli
tio.nists, when the Constitution so clearly
required a majority of all the votes east at
the election and not upon that particular
question.
It will be remembered that the quest ion
of negro suffrage was again submitted to
the people of that State last fall, (18654
and. that it was then negatived by over ten
thousand majority'! Notwithstanding this
fact, however, the voice of the people is
entirely disregarded, by the abolition
court.
• - r• FOS TIM • DEMOCRAT
Congress and the President.
=cat :—Tho studied misrepre
seitialion by Republican papers of the is
sue between Congress and the President,
leads me to make a few suggestions thro'
the zolumns.of the Democrat to the inde
pendent thinking men who arc not hope
lessly wedded to party.
The President has not urged the ad
mission of a Southern State that has no:
given evidence of her unqualified loyalty;
while Congress has opposed the admis
sion of all States over whom the Confed
erates lately held control. The President
has suggested the propriety of admitting
to seats the representatives from Tennes
see as an earnest of his policy in regard to
reconstruction. We all know the histo
ry of the trials and unflinching patriotism
of the loyalists of Tennessee—a majority
of the people of that State—a class as de
serving of their rights as any in the Uni
ted States ; yet a blind and radical Con
gress refuses to restore to them these
privileges. This notion on the part of
Congress is consistent with the opposi
tion to the admission of the territory of
Colorado into the Union as a State, be
cause the people of that territory refuse to
degrade the elective franchse by enjoying
it in common with the negro.
The radicals of Congress are aware that
they have nothing to hope from the most
ardent Unionist and Republican of the
Southern States in their st beme of forcing
.negro equality, politically and socially,up
on an unwilling people. They have
marked the course of Gen. Rosseau,
Randall, and other Republicans of Ken
tucky, and they have determined to fix
up this little business of Sambo's before
they trust even their dear Republican
friends from the South.
It is just to protect the negro in his
rights guarantied to him by the late
amendment to the Constitution ; but fur
l*r than that I would suggest to that'au
gust body the good policy of leaving his
status, politically and socially, to be set,
tied by the State iu which it may be his
fortune to reside.
Congress and the Republican party
will find, in their attempt to force negro
equality upon the people of the United
States, in direct violation of the spirit if
not the letter of the Constitution, that
they have got an elephant on their hands.
They will injure the " nation's ward" by
their zeal in his cause, and if they contin
ue as they have begun, they will arouse
the existing prejudice to a higher pitch—
raise up a pai ty for colonization—
that, when thoroughly organized, will
sweep the negro from the land, in spite of
himself or his friends. We can never re
construct, or eradicate the prejudices of
the South by the sword. The organized
armies of the South are defeated, and
now martial law and arms should give
way to pacific statesmanship. •
We have been told that States could
not secede—could not throw off their al
legiance to the general government, and
Southern Slates have declared their or
dinances of secession " nu 1 and void,"and
Congress has no power under the Consi
union to exclude for a moment the duly
elected loyal representative of any South•
ern State.
My friend, the pedagogue of Schuylkill
county—the " Occasional" of the Repub
lican—with his political acumen " can al
moat believe a determination" on the part
of the President," to subvert the liberties
()kilo people and establish a centralized
despotism." Mirabile dicta! The Presi
dent has refused power, forced upon him
by a Congress, the very embodiment of
centralization, as obnoxious as it is dau-
gerous.
The President stands as he has ever
stood, the determined opponent of the ex
tremes. He believes, and with justice,
too, that in our ease the extremes meet
in treason. Ile believes, with every oth
er true man, that the determined advocat e
of secession is no more guilty than lie who
who maintains the right of Congress to
interfere with the domestic institutions of
a single State. The Arnerican'people have
nobly met and disposed of Secession ; let
them now meet centralization and its ad
vocates in the same spirit.

FRUITS OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.-
We begin to witness the fruits of the Civ
il,ltighte, bill. It has already caused the
blood of white people to be shed in Nor
folk, it has been the cause of negroes in
Boston filing places formerly occupied
by white laborers ; it has given Massa
chusetts negroes the right, or rather they
have impudently assumed it, to take seats
beside white ladies in railroad cars when
plenty of other seatsare vacant. In short
it is.continually increasing the bad feeling
existing between whites and blacks in the
North, while it is certainly not bringing
them on better terms of amity and intima
cy in the South we foresee a great deal of
trouble in this connection, even before
the Civil Rights bill is put into practical
execution.—N. Y. Herald.
Qom' The following are some of the
cries uttered by the negroes of Norfolk,
Virginia, while they were celebrating the
" passage" of the " Civil Rights" bill by
murdering white men women and boys
in the streets and in their homes : " Ral
ly, rally, boys, and kill a white son of a b—
wherever you find him !" " Stop that
white son of a b—! Kill him !" • "Rally
in, boys ! bring him out and shoot him!"
" Here's a white man; damn him, let's
kill him !" "That's the way we ought to
serve all the white livered sons of b—s!"
&c., &c. The foregoing are taken from
the testimony of the witnesses at the in
quest held upon the bodies of the murder
ed, Whiteburst famiyl.

Amalgamation: . at Seen in the Dan
... cing Salts in Boston. L
The local of the Boston Post, in descri
bing the dance halls of that city, paints
ivid pictures of vice. Here is his account
of one he entered. There were many
others like it, but we select this as a
specimen :
Passing into the dance - hall, we found
quite a company present " tripping the
light fantastic toe " to the music of a
piano forte with violin accompaniment.
This hall is about sixty feet deep, and
is fitted up with considerable taste. The
walls are long with pictures, real and
fancy, and, to giv - e a patriotic cast to the
whole, the names of all the Presidents
and the names of the principal battles in
which the Massachusetts colored regi
ments have served, are printed in gold, l ;
and to relieve the sameness of the dingy
walls. But the scene here presented by
those participating - in the "social dance"
is not only novel, but disgusting. Young,
good-looking white girls, and negroes
black as lamp-black, mingle and com
mingle in the dance, and embrace each
other with seeming tenderness of spirit.
The tall athletic specimen of the genuine
African, with great gusto and enthusiasm,
whirls the young white woman in the
mazy dance, and at the Ki , nal to prome
nade for drinks, escorts her to the bar
and treats her to a tumbler of spruce beer
and sonic peanuts. This scene is revolt
ing in the extreme to one accustomed to
respectable society, but it is practiced
here in this mixed company, nearly every
night in the year. Familiarity knows no
restraints. All are on a level, and we
have here a perfect illustration of the
theory of negro equality at the expense ot
a white woman's respect and virtue.
Disunion Slander Exposed.
A telegraphic dispatch in the morning
papers announced the appointment of
Wade Hampton as Postmaster of this
city, and that lie was related to cele
brated chieftain of that name,„ with the
inference that the President was prompt
ed to a favorable consideration of his case
from this circumstance. Mr. Hampton is
no relation, and has no sympathy in that
direction. It might have been as charita
ble to have mentioned that his brother
Captain Hobert Hamptim, of Hampton's
battery, killed at Chancellorsville, fought
on our side.—Pillamig Post.
RiOtOVALS FROM OFFICE —The aboli
tion journals are howling furiously at
President Johnson for a few removals
from office of persons who have spoken
abusively of him or his policy. What
would they shy if he should do. as Mr.
Lincoln did, send them to some bastile.
It is a the!, however, well to be noted,
that these papers make more fuss over a
person thus turned out of office, more
complaint of its tyranny i cbe., then the
Democratic papers did when Lincoln was
sending hundreds to prison because they
used what his Majesty was pleased to
term "disloyal language."
ißrThe Fenians do not appear to have
mai:e much headway in their recent at
tempt to capture En?land, somewhere up
in Maine. The patriots and demagogues
who have been urging these poor p eo pl e
to spend their money and blood in a wild
adventure, should be held to a stern ac
count, and % ill, in public estimation, be
sure'y condemned.
