proposed amendments. I see much evil.
We had better adhere to the form of gov
ernment which our fathers gave us. It is
in myjtidgment, the.. most perfect politi
cal production of human wisdom and pa
esietranse- 's'or three quarters of a century
it teetered us anexampled prosperity and
happiness, andi, as the en& of that time,
enate est us to meet and. overcome the most
etupentiousrebellion in the history of na
tioes. Why change it ? For seventy
five yeari .we have hardly known that we
here had a government. When we did
ksorsr it, we knew only by its beneficence.
And inhas shown itself as strong as be
neficent---mpable of successful resistance
to the fiercest and most desperate assaults
that it: is possible to make upon a govern
ment. Why change it just as it has vin
dicated its power and glory, and lifted us
to an eminence among the nations of the
earth we never till now attained ?
We have tried the old Constitution and
know its capabilities. We have not tried
the new; as proposed, but can readily see
the confusion and disaster which it would
bring. 'We had better let well enough
alone: 'But if we should change it at ail,
we should not change it now. The pub
lie temper was never less auspicious to
calla, conscientious, wise consideration of
greet questions of State: Passion and
pre jodiee should never lay rude hands up
on fundamental and organic laws: In a
day they may' do mischief which years of
repentant, patriotic labor will not repair.
in a (ley they may open a Pandora's box,
which the patriotism and statesmanship
ore century may not be able to shut.
.I do not regard the recent and pending
elections indiestive of the judgment of the
people of the Northern States upon' the
cobetitutional amendments. They are re
ally'not the issues presented to and con
sidered by the people. They hard not
been calmly and dispessionetely discussed
and reflected upon. The people base had
their fears alarmed and their prejudices
and passions aroused, and perhaps never
voted under more delusive ideas as to the
character of the issues before the country.
The people have been assured that
President Johnson is a traitor and a usur
per. ire 'nenitped no power. When the ,
inswrrectionary governments were over
thrown and eeoelled, the States were left
with Comoitntions which,ct-Argil's ie.
rresetnn sanctions of the Federal
Constitution, had been
.declared republi
can in term, and under which those States
110 ',ter many years maintained their place
ae 'aornilitnent members of the Union.
But they had no organizationsunder their
Constitutions. The President, therefore,
doing what it 1 was his imperative duty as
Commander tit Chief to do ,
and what he
would have been most culpable for not
doi . ng, prevented anarchy by appointing
temporary Provisional Governors under
Whose advice the people brought their
regular governments again into opera
tion under their Constitutions. This
was a thing with which Congress had
nothing to do. It was.a matter purely of
military' cognizance. The public' enemy
bad jttst, been expelled by military force,
and it was the duty of the Commander iu j
Chief to see to it that anarchy and con
fu-ion did not ensue, and that the machin
ery of the legitimate g overnments was
again put in operation fur the preserve-
Lien 'Of Order and the protection of life, lib
ereY, and property from lawless violence.
It was the duty of the President, too, as
the Executive head of the nation, to see
to it that the national laws were executed
end the relations between the States and
the Federal government restored. Presi
dent Lincoln had taken precisely this ac
tion...in respect to Viegtma, Tennessee,
toeisilea,
: and fitekansas, for which he was
aPplandset and endorsed by Congress du

by- the 'Radicals against air. Lincoln's re
uoinination to the Presidency, and a con
vention called at Cleveland to supersede
him as _the candidate, for, resolutely ad
hering to his restoration policy, which
both houses of Congress had repeatedly
endorsed during the first half of the war.
In the appeal then made by the Radicals
from Pre-ident Lincoln to the war par:) ,
they were overwhelmingly defeated and
his policy endorsed by the party and the
country. President Johnson strictly ad

Wasnot.until long after the governments
of all the Southern States had been reor

ly assail-him.
Those who are sincerely desirous of see
ing a pacification of the country, and a
restoration of the integrity of the Union;
ought to feel assured of the purely patri
otic and sincere intentions of the Presi
dent, when they remember that he is, in
good faith, carrying forward the policy
inaugurated by President Lincoln, and
that the only two men who went into the
administration with Mr. Lincoln at the
beginning of his first term, (the Secreta
ries of State and of tho Navy), and the
only two were trusted and confided in by
him through his, entire official career, and
to the end of his life—who stood by., en
couraged and sustained him when the
storm and tempest of rebellion was beat
ing most fiercely upon him,and the Ship
of State was tossing upon he waves of a
turbulent sea, with broken masts and
shattered sails, and who knew his most
secret thoughts as to the best measures to
be adopted to bring her into port—are
standing by President Johnson, with a
courage and heroism equally sublime, and
chegeing hint nn in his: heoeie efforts tO
achieve the same ends. They werevili
fied and denounced then; and, bythe same
men, are vilified and '•deniminced now.
They did not quail before the storm that
beat upon them then—they do not quail
betoro the tempest that rages around them
now. Mr. Lincoln was heroic then, and
Mr. Johnson is heroic now lam sure no
man can be more sincere in his purposest o
preserve the Constitution and save the
country than he is. No man can be actu
ated by a purer patriotism or be more
averse to usurpation of 'power. He has
not violated the Constitution in the past;
he intends no infraction of it in the fu
ture; but he-does intend a firm and faith
ful performance• of all the trusts which
that sacred instrument has devolved up
on him. With every disposition to be
charitable towards those who differ from
me in opinion, it is difficult to believe them
sincere in charging the President with in
tention of violently forcing rebels into
Congress, and giving them' the control
of the government. What act has he ev
er done that gives the slightest sanction to
such a share ? Not one can be specified.
He has neither transcended his own pow
ers nor invaded those of the co ordinate
departments; and the only pretext for the
charge is, not what he has done, but what
he has said, in declaring again and again
his conviction that it was the duty of
Congress to obey e plain constitutional
provision, and each: house for itself to
judge of the elections, returns, and (pall
fications of each • individual -presenting
himself as a member.
Ow country is in peril—in very great
peril—not from a public enemy but from
the violence of our own passions. Safety
is to be found - only iti a strict adheience
to the Constitution and laws. Al long
as they areobeyed no evil can come upon
us.
Wesre in danger only when we attempt
something they do not sanction. I trust it I
will be the pride and glory of the friends
of the Administration, in the threatening
contests through which we are passing,
to keep their passions in subjection to
reason, and to do no act not fay war
ranted by the Constntion and laws.
Ours is a republican government, where
the majority has a right to rule. Minor
ities cannot, without subverting the gov
ernment. And When, according to the
forms prescribed, the will of the majority
is expressed in the Cobstution or the
law, it is the duty of all to submit to it,
constitutionally until it can be fairly and
constitutionally chanpied. Such I know
to be the President's intentions, and such
I know liewishes to be the 'rule of con

TUESDAY, NOV, 6, 1866.
Will there be Civil War in Maryland 7
After a full and patient investigation of
the charges made against the police Com
missioners of Baltimore by citizens of that
place, Governor Swann has removed them
from office. This, under the law be had
clearly a right to do. Upon this point
there will be no difference of opinion
among well educated lawyers. The Leg
islature reserved to themselves the right
to deal with the Commissioners for misde
meanor in office, when they were in ses
sion. When not in session, they delega
ted that power to the Chief Magistrate
of the State, In the exercise of that au
thority Governor Swann did not act in a
hasty or inconsiderate manner. He dil
not listen to idle rumor or mere political
gossip. He demanded that reputable cit
izens should, over their own names, pre
fer specific charges against these officials.
That was done. Those charges were
laid before the Commissioners, and they
were cited to appear and disprove them.
Tbey did appear by counsel. The wit
nesses were produced, the examination
made, and all the facts on one side elear'y
stated. The Commissioners were then
allowed ample time and opportunity to
rebut the allegations made. This they
embraced, and witnesses were beard on
their side of the question. Upon the clo
sing of the testimony counsel were heard
upon both sides, and the Governor gave
his decision as an impartial judge, bound
tinder his oath to act in accordance with
the law and the evidence submitted: That
decision is against the Commissioners.
They are no longer the officers of the
State. ,
We presume that the new Commission
ers have selected election judges who will
receive the ballots of citizens without ref
erence to how they vote. Thin will allow
an honest, legal election—something the
people have not enjoyed in Maryland for
a long time.
Forney and other disunion leaders
I threatened resistance if the late Commis
sioners were removed under the law they
had violated; and a raid from the North
was proposed in aid of the radical rebel!.
ion. Bnt as Gen. Grant has visited Bal
timore and advised the radicals to submit
to the law, wo presume there will be no
resistance to a quiet election. The old
know nothing ruffians who now compose
the "Loyal Leagues" may get up a lit
tle rioting, but their fellow conspirators
at the North, having some respect for Gen.
Grant's bayonets will take care to stay at
home.
Charles Dougherty, Esq.
This gentleman, a citizen of Wilkes-
Barre, bas lately been appointed by the
President Consul at Londonderry. This
announcement we make with double
pleasure, since the appointment is not on
ly a recognition of the ability and integ
rity of Mr. Dougherty, but it was emi
nently fitting that our American interests
should be represented on Irish soil by
some one of our Irish fellow citizens. In
the present aspect of English and Ameri
can affairs, and especially, in view of the
fraternity existing between the United
States and Ireland, every American will
feel a glad . sense that, the sentiments of
the. American people with respect to the
questions growing out of these National
relationships are to be expressed in our
official at the Consulate of Londonderry.
Mr. Dougherty is a young man, but in
a few years he has elevated himself by his
talents and energy from the ranks to a
commissioned post in the great American
Brotherhood. Some thirty six years ago
his father sailed with his family to this
country from the very port to which to
day his is sent, the representative of our
power, our institutions and our sympa
thies.
We shall part with Mr. Dougherty with
regret, but there is mingled with this feel
ing no little pride in considering the fer
vent welcome that, awaits him among his
ancestral people.
Oar Irish fellow citizens will see in this
appointment, that although Congress le
fused to repeal our Neutrality Laws, the
President ;11 determined to consult their
wishes, so far as it is in his Constitutional
power, and to plaoe on Irish soil as the
representatives of the American Govern
ment, those men who - will study the in
terests of the Irish nation while faithfully
representing the laud of• their adoption,

Meteoric Showers, or "Shooting Stars."
It seems to be the general impression
of scientific men that a - meteoric shower
may be expected on 44 : morning of-No
vember 13tH, and i onlr
witnessed Once,in an ordlnifry gebration,
we will give our readers BHA infoi•mation
on the subject as we Chance to possess.
The foundatiOn for the belief that Ibis
phenomena may be expected on the 13th,
is the fact that similar phenomena oc
cared on the . 13th of NOveniber; 1800,
.and on — the latb,of November, - 1833-ritii
interval of thirty-three years=which; if
flitairbe - aity - fittedttire'rlitTeiiiiiiglheii:
r..currtace, will bring it upon the 13th of
November, 1860.
On the morning of the 13th of Novem
ber,- 1633, we learn from Olmsted's As;
tronomy, from two o'clock until broad
1 daylight, the sky being perfectly serene
and cloudless, the whole heavens were
lighted with a magnificent display of ce
lestial fire works. At times the air was
filled with streaks of ilfht, occasioned by
i firey partich s (bating down so swiftly as
Ito kthvc the MTN-pitiful of their light up
on the eye (like a match ignited and
whirled before the face,) and drifting to
the n• rthweA like tlaes of snow driven by
Vie wind ; while, at short intervals, balls
of tire, varying in size from minute pOintio
to bodies larger than Jupiter and Venn+,
and in a few instances as large as the full
moon, descended more slowly along the
arch Or the skv, often lea% ing after them
long trains of light, which wiire in some
initiators vas egated with prismatic col
ors.
On tracing back the i .01 of direction
which the meteors moved, it was found
that they all appeared to radiate frotirthe
same pi int, winuh was situated near one
of the stars of ti.e sick se, in the constella
tion "Leo ;" and in every repetition oft he
meteoric phower, the radiant point has oe
envied:nearly t ho same situation.
This shower per nearly the whole
of North America, having appeared in al
most equal splendor front the British pos
-0(.8,1011:4 of the North to the West India
Islands and Mexico on the South, and
from 61 deg. of longitude east of the
American coast, quite to the Pacific,
ocean ou the West. Throughout this im
mense region the duration was ttearly the
same. The meteors beam] to attract at
rii ion by their otiose:l7 brilliancy, from
nine to twelve o'clock in the evening;
were most striking in their appearance
from two to four; arrived at their maxi
mum, in marry places, about four o'clock,
and continued until rendered invisibly by
the light of the day.
Some authorities fix the date of the first
recorded mt teoric shower 'on November
12th, 1799, instead of 1800, and conite
quently fix the time of its recurrence on
Nov. 12th, Is67—being an interval of 34
instead of 33 years. We leave time and
the astronomers to determine which cal
culation is mr•st correct.
Astronomers seem to agree that these
periodical Meteors have their origin be
}•ond the atmosphere, descending to us
from some nebulous body with which the
earth fails in, and near or through the bor
ders of which it passes ; and that this neb,
ulous body hag' an independent existence
as a member of the solar system, with
regular periods of revolution.
It, is further establisl,ed that these me
teors consist of light combustible matter;
that they move with great velocity, in
some instances amounting to nineteen
miles in a second ; that some of them are
bodies of a large size, sometimes several
thousand feet in diameter; that when they
enter the atmosphere they rapinly and
powerfully condense the air be ore them,
and then elicit the heat that sets them on
tire, and they are burned up at a Consid
erable height nbove the earth, sometimes
not less than thirty miles.
The "show" will be a free one, and of
course r verybo ly will remain awake to
see it. If the scene is an, thing to be com•
pared with that of November, 1844, it
will repay a night's watching. On the
occasion al uded, many thought the end
of the world had come, . while the more
superstitious were stricken dumb with
fear.
We give the aboTe from an exchange
for what it is worth.
Paying a Bet.
The Easton Sentinel says: On Mon
day afternoon a rather novel het, which
had been made on the result of the late
election, was paid in this borough. The
bet was between Capt. Charles litisbe
and Alexander Reichardt, the loser to
push a wheelbarrow, loaded with a keg
of lager beer, from the Eagle Hotel, n
the west ward, via the Square to the Le
high Bridge and back again—the party
stopping to drink at each street crossing.
Ricbardt bet on 18,000 for Geary, and as
he lost, the duty of wheeling fell to his
lot, and the pleasure of dealing out the
lager to our gay friend,Capt. Krisho. The
wheelbarrow was preceded by martial
music, and quite a crowd followed to en
joy the fun.
I=C=2=l
GarAt the Radical ratification meet
ing in Roxbury, Mass. on the 23d ult. the
lion. Gen. S. Boutwell, among others, ad
dressed the audience :
He spoke of President Johnson being
elevated to the Chief Magistracy by as
sassination, the mysteries of which had
not, been fully unfolded. Maryland was
now in danger of civil war because 87;
000 loyal blacks were not allowed the
ballot.
,The path of peace was in justice
to the negro. He was in favor of keeping
out the ten disloyal States until they were
ready to give the enfranchised race polit
oal rights.
This is really the doctrine of the Radi
cal, Disunion party, to keep the South
out of the Union until they: let the ne
groes vote, . and then control_ them by
means of the Freedman's Bureau.

ELI SLIFER,
Seery of the Commonwealth
The Rebels, repudiators on principle,
have, in their new State Constitutions, re
pudiated the Confederate war debt.—
They never could have paid it anyhow.
But they have never repudiated their pur
pose to make the United States pay for
it. On 'the contrary, the very first month
that sees them with their Copperhead al
lies, in s majority in Congress, will see
that debt fastened on the North.—Bing
hamton Standard.
The Standard is not the only journal
that has charged upon the Democracy an
intention to assume the Confederate debt.
We state for the information of the Stan
dard that that debt was unanimously re
pudiated at the National Convention held
in Philadelphia in August, and that Con
vention was composed of delegates from
all the States, and their action upon that
as well as other subjects has met with a
hearty response from the Democracy of
every section of the country. The charge
is in bad taste and those making it know
it has not the least foundation in truth.
