The Military ROCollartletloll Bill.
We agree with the National Inteliigen
cer that the bill which passed . the "Tense
last Thursday, will make the blackest re
cord whie!l ever stained the records of a
tree people, and that never in the most
t)rannical hour of the Long Parliament
misrule—never, amid the utmost subserv
ience to the royal mandate of an English
king—never in the most bloodythirsty
epoch of a French convention, did the cep
reseulativee of the people stamp them-
selves with greater ignominy.
The bill which passed by a vote of 109
to 55, hands one third of the people of
this country over to militarygovernment.
For the rule of law, it substitutes the will
of an officer. For the tribunal of a judge,
it lurid hes a drumhead &fun martial, or
a military commission. For the process
0' a court and the peaceful visit of a sher
iff,
it prefers the order of a petty satrap
an I the presence ofa guard of bayonets.
It ignor , -s the Chief Magistrate of the
United States. It invests a General with
absolute power over one-third of his coun
t ryineti, It erects subordinate dictators,
armed wilh unbridled power from the Po
tonvic to the Rio Grande. Throughout
this le o 1 (Idomain, comprising the fairest
and most fertile section of the Republic,
no man is to have a secure title to his
pruperty, no man's house is free from
seareh, n man's chattels exempt from
seizure; no man's liberty unexposed to
assault ; no man's life safe from peril. An
army officer, a soldier, exalted above the
law, may ruthlessly invade a citizen's
home and drag him from the bosom of
his family.
Such a bill makes a mockery of free•in
itutiuns. It &spites all the great safe
gifards or 1.” Tula r liberty. It trampleeon
the freedoni of the press. It annihilates
the right (.1 free assemblage. It silektes
the lips of free , pee(th. It infringes the li
right of the people to bear arms. It wipes
out the gu 0-411.) of a grand jury present
in,nt. I; abolishes the exemption of free
ilmn from seizure and from search. It
abrogates the right of trial by jury of
one's p-ets in the vicinage of the comnils
ption of the alleged offence. It tramples
upon the prerogative of the President, it
makes war upon the Constitution, it re
bels against the authority of the Supreme
Court. It invad, s the sacred constitu
tional rights of the citizen. It is rebellion
wearing the garb of legitimate power. It
is usurpation assuming the sanctity of
c"u'titntional enactment.
Aeministratien Policy.
According to the reports of newstnong
ers, sundry members of Ccogress who
have no particular opinions upon any sub
ject, but who would like to organize a spe
cial " bread and butter brigade," are bu-:i
sy co..king np a plan to save the Pres
dent from impeachment and other radical,
penalties, provided that he will abandon
his principles and policy, and give the of
fices to Republ:c ins or such "Demo Crate"
(s 4) etiled) as will swear fealty to Ben.
Butler, negio ( quality, &c., inside the
" loyal league." To carry out this "poli
cy" it snenis that the clique of managers
at Washing, on -are now bunting up "cou
pe, valve lt. publicans," (who will next
day after appointment agree to anything
in return for Senatorial confirmation,) or
soft " Dtanoerats" who are anxious to sell
thninselves, and their party, to the Sen-
ate, for confirmation
Whether the President will be captiva
t+•tl with chaff, and entrapped into mak
ing such appointments remains to be seen.

Superior Bights to Negroes.
Every Republican, except one, in the
State Senate, voted for the bill making it
an offense punishable by fine and impris
onment, for any incorporated railroad
company or its employees to refuse the
admission of Negroes into any passenger
car. It is now almost an universal ar
rangent on railroad lines to have a ladies'
car qL to which no gentlemen are admitted
except those who have ladies traveling
with them, bat the legislature of Pennsyl

following referenos to the members,in his
last letter
Our African friends, or the eons of Ham,
are getting in better odor every day.
This has been literally demonstrated in
the fact that for President, in 1860, Abra
ham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin were
duly elected. The former was reelected,
-but the latter was dropped, and Andrew
Johnson without a ham elected, and the
rads suffered terribly by it.
Allegheny county is represented in the
Senate by Bigham and Graham, and be

The former has been elected twice, which
subjects his constituents to the charge of

Samuel C. %Viugard, Esq., of Lycoming,
formerly of Cambria, is regarded as the
most eloquent man in either branch, and
I Peter F. Collins, of Cambria, is the best
I looking man in either branch. By the
way, Schuylkill county has the longest
representation; her three members, in the
House measvring eighteen feet six inch

h'as the longest nose of any member and
John J. Glass, of Cambria, had the short

William A. Wallace, of Clearfield is the

Radical Love for the Boys in Blue,
Our "boys in blue" should note the no
tion
of the United States Senate in the
matter of confirming appointments made
by the President. During the recentco- '
litical canvass the radicals made direct ap
peals to the soldiers, declared they should
he preferred on all occasions in the distri
bution of official patronage, and proclainl
ed that the " boys in blue" were the
wards of the nation, and should be taken
care of as such. But these promises have
not been kept. Soldiers have been ap
pointed to office by the President, but the
Radical Senate thus insulted and rejected
them. The Cleveland Plaindealer, while
speaking of the rejection of Colonel Moe,
as Marshal of the Northern District of
Ohio, sums up the recent doings of the
hopeftil cabal that are now ruling the Sen
ate. Colonel Moe, says the Plaindealer,
is not the only soldier who has felt the ven
geance of the Senate. The brave Colonel
Langdon, who was among the foremost of
our army in the charge up the hills of Misr
sion Bidge, and who fell wounded at its
summit, has been rejected for a civil posi
tion; that brave old soldier, General Couch
of Massachnsetts ; Colonel Wells, of the
second Michigan cavalry; Colonel Hunter
of. the eighty fourth Indiana ; Colonel
Grierson, of lowa ; Colonel Cummings
and General Frizell, of Ohio; Colonel
Parkhurst, of Michigan, and other brave
soldiers, who had been appointed to civil
positions—who had socceoded mere
cal partisans—are refused confirmation by
our loyal Senate ! The rejection of such
men by such a Senate will nit injure them
in the eyes of the people. This is radical
love for the "boys iu blue."
Whitewashing Done Sere.
The report and "testimony" of the
Committee appointed to find out, nothing
in relation to fraud and corruption in the
election of Simon Cameron to the IT. S.
Senate, takes up just two columns-and one
half of Simon's own organ. The
log were the only persona examined; Col.
Harry White, A. 11 M'Lain, F.. Mechlin,
Kirk Haines, D. B. M'Cleary and T. J.
Bighorn—Radicals of the Legislature, pd
now all frirods of Cameron; Brigham, of
the Pittsburg Commercial, Campbell, of
the Pittsburg Leader, Lynn, of the Erie
Dispatch, and Eames, of the Cheater Jour
nal—all radicals, also, and now friends of
Cameron. The committee specia:ly invi
ted John W. Forney, and Senators Fisher,
and Billingfelt, of Laneaster,to appear and
testity, , but, having found Simon not a bad,
sort, Of fellow, they positively assured the
committee that what they bad said before,
the election was all bogus— in other:
words, that, they had lied some. They.
begged to be 'excused from taking the
oath, and were excused, of course.
The committee say they . " gave a gener
al invitation to any person to appear" and
prove frond and corruption against Simon,
and " after waiting some ten dayaor more.
and no one appearing, the 'committee
ceased their labors." No public notice of
such "invitation" was ever given. ',How.
ever, it. is all the same— everythingis now
lovely," and " nobody knows nothing."

The Great Humbug for Congress.
A recent telegram fiom Conueeticut
announced that P. T.,Barnum, famous for
his wooly horse and patent mermaid, had
been nominated for congress by the radi
ca's of the Fourth District of that State.
Mr. Theodore Tilton, of the New York

gested •`that inasmuch as Congress is
something of a humbug, it is just the
place for Batnam." For once we agree

Specimen of Political . Priests.
The Yankee Reverend Joel Liodsley,
who beat his little three year old child
to death inn flagellation lasting two
hours and a half, says:." I never could
have punished my child for an hour or
-half an hour, or anything like it, in anger,
and to have, done so would have been
monstrous." Had sthe fellu-w been in an
ger there might have been some extenua
tion, but when he says—" I was not an
gry or in a passion in all this" he proves
himself to be one of the most cold blood
ed, cruel brutes that ever cut a throat.
Joel had been one of those priests who
preached politics and howled about the
sin of slavery, cruelty of whipping. ne
