TUESDAY, MARCH 26; 1867.
The rtittionaiDemoemtio Committee,
We learn from our exchanges that the
National Democratic Committee met on
TuepiTay afternoon in. New York city, at
the 1 / 4 1icit'ise of -its Chair - man, Mr. Belmont.
Mostrorthe - Northern States were repre
ntetl:'=-Ihe thorough
discussion, carnet° the decided conclusion
that it waineiliedient to call a National
Convention until nut year. Measures
weririfet On foot, however for a thorough
organization of the Democratic party.
We think the decision of the. Commit
tee/4
wise . and judicious under the circum
stance& - - Just at present there aro no in
dications that the assembling of an extra
ordinary conventiOn would result in any
good. The revolutionary radicals are deaf
to every aPpeal, and utterly refuse to list
en to any call of patrioism or prudence.
If they will not heed tins voices which
now cry aloud to them, they would not
be influenced in the ,slightest degree by
any action _or utterance which :night
come frdm a National Democratic Con
vention. Our appeal mast be made di
rectly to the people, and the proper time
to rialto that appeal will be at the assem
bling of a Convention to nominate eandi
datq for President and vice President.
Then it can and will be done in a proper
and efficient manner.
In the a great and good Work
can be performed by a thorough and per
fect organization of the Demperatio party.
Wehope to see that work begun on a corn
piTheusive scale and pushed forward with
untiring energy. The political , battle of
next year will be the meat momentous
struggle of.the kind in which the people
(;f this nation ever engaged. Let the
work of organization for the campaign bo
begun at once, anelet it be more thor
ough and complet ether, ever before. With
thorough preparation and a proper use of
the means at the command of the °onset:-
vativ e men of the nation, the defeat of the
la:Heals must necessarily be achieved.
Let every member of the Democratic par
ty/no matter how humble he may be,
hold himself ready to do his full share in
the great work of redeeming the nation
from the hands of the despots who are de
stroying the liberties of the people..
Appointing Soldiers to Office.
The Montrose Republican asks : Why
don't the President appoint some soldier
for Revenue ASsessor ? The question is
only intended to falsify and deceive, for
the" editor well knows that the radical
Senate has been busy all winter in reject
ing soldiers, including many generals and
other officers who bad fought gallantly in
the field, and who were fully competent
for the offices. No matter to lvhat politi
cal party they belonged, if they were
friendly to the Pret4dent, in favor of pre
serving the Union, siind white white en- ,
pramscy, off w their heads.. • •
Ito man—so > r or civiliam-- : can se
cure a onpfirmat• •. as Assessor of the dis
trict unless he is a radical or sells himself
to Ben Butler's party of "equal rights"—
nfiigro jurors, negro lawyers, &c. .
Congressional Proceedings,
March 38—In the House a resclution
was passed instructing an inquiry as to
whether the people of Maryland have a
state government such as Congress can
consistently with the Constitution, recog
nize and guarantee.
March 19—Ic the Senate the'conference
committee on the supplemental military
reconstruction bill made a report. The
Senate amendment was agreed to, that
the state constitution shall be ratified by
a majority of the votes cast a majority of
the registered voters having voted. A
clause was added, that Congress must be
ratified that all voters had au opportuni
ty-to vote -without fear or- intimidation. '
The 'report, was agreed to.
The same was adopted by the House.
March 20—In , the house the commit
tee'on elections made a report in the Col
oradocontested election case. An amend
raent to-admit Mr. Chilcott as the sitting
member, pending the decision of the
question, was adopted.- :Mr, Chileott was
then sworn
,in. Hunt; Democrat, holds
the certificate of election, but the radical
wi'l be figured in, finally.
March 22—In the Senate, Wilson of
Massachusetts offered a concurrent reso
lution that Jeff Davis be tried or set at
liberty. The action of the House upon
the - Southern destitute relief resolution
was announced by the Clerk of that body.
The Senate concurred in the House amend
ment by • avote of 29 to 9, and the bill

cipal corporation, that are paid out by any
national bank, was. passed. The joint
resolution to furnish 10,000 stand of arms
and equipments to the negro militia of the
State of Tennessee-was passed.. ----
Involuntary Bankruptcy.
TIM provisions , of the new Bankrupt
bill, so far as they affect voluntary appli
cations, are now generally understood,
but those which give to creditors the
power of proceeding to make their debt
ors bankrupts are not so well known.—
They are much more extensive than like
provisions in former acts, which have
been in force in this country, and they are
important to be understood. The causes
which will authorize a creditor to pro
ceed against his debtor are as follows :
First. The voluntary departure of the
debtor from the State, district or Terri
tory of which he is an inhabitant, with in
tent to defraud his creditors.
Second. Concealment by a debtor, to
avoid the service of legal process, in any
action of debt or upon demand.
Third. Concealment or removal of prop
erty, to prevent its being attached, taken
or sequestered on legal process.
Fourth. The assignment, gift, sale, con
veyance or transfer of estate, property,
rights or credits, in this country or abroad
with intent to delay, defraud or hinder
creditors.
Fifth. Being arrested and held in cus
tody under mesne process of execution
for a debt valid and provable under the
Bankrupt law exceeding one hundred
dollars, if such process is not dischargA
by payment, or by law within seven days.
Sixth. Actual imprisonment ty process
in a civil action upon a demand exceed
ing one hundred dollars, founded on con
tract, for more than seven days.
Seventh. The payment, gift or transfer,
sale or conveyance of property or money
to any person in contemplation of bank
ruptcy, the party being bankrupt or in
solvent at the time.
Eighth. Giving a warrant to confess.
judgment, in contemplation of bankrupt
cy.
Ninth. Suffering property to be taken
in execution, or on legal process, with an
intent to give a preference to one or more
creditors.
Tenth. Suffering, property to be taken
in execution, or upon legal process, with
intent to give preference to endorses, bail
or sureties, with intent to delay or to de
feat the operations of the act.
Eleventh. The fraudulent stoppage or
suspension by a banker, trader or met%
chant of payment of his commercial panel-,
not resumed within fourteen' days.
Any person thus liable for tho nets ao
signateituaay be made a bankrupt within
six months after their perpetration, on
the petition of one or more of his credit
ors, the aggregate of whose debts amount
to $250.
Nor' is this all. The transaction which
caused the bankruptcy is void, and the
assignee may recover back property trans
ferred or money paid by the bankrupt ;
provided that the person receiving it had
reasonable cause to believe that a fraud
was intended, or that the debtor was in
sofvent. And furthermore, such person
so implicated in the fraud, if a creditor,
shall not be allowed to prove his debt
against the bankrupt, and must lose it al
together.
It will thus be seen that this act not on
ly giVes-to the debtor who has been hon
est but unfortunate the means of reliev
ing himself from his burden, but it guar
antees to the creditor a remedy against
fraudulent practices; renders dispositions
of property in favoritism and preference
void, and punishes net only the party ma
king such; preference, but him who was to
receive the benefit. Against involuntary
bankrupts, orders of arrest and imprison
ment may be issued, and they may be ei
ther confined or made to give bail for
their appearance. These regulations may
affect tipsiness very much, and it is the
duty of every one having transactions
with others to make himself master of the
directions of the law, so that he shall not
render himself innocently liable to punish
ment.
Outrages in the South.
The constant repetition on the part of
Radical demagogues of outrages in the
South has the effect of preventing emigra
tion to an extent our people hardly esti
mate. No man will go much less take
his family or invest capital where there is
insecurity for life or property. The hor
rible tales invented of the outrages in the
South, indorsed by members of Congress
and an unscrupulous press, would lead us
to believe the men, women and children
of the Southern States were little better
than " gorillas," who fattened upon the
blood of strangers. Scarcely a day pass
es without our being called upon to read
letters from the South in answer to ques
tions relative to the safety of the neigh
borhood. As these letters pass between
acquaintances and relations there is no
'motive for_concealment or falsehood, yet
in every instance the utmost astonish
ment is exhibited, that stories of outrages
appear in. the Northern prints, having oc
curred in the very locality where the wri
ters,live, but who never heard of them.
We have in the North, murders, rapes,ar.
son and . violence of every description,
in
cident to demoralized humanity yet feel
able to take care of-ourselves. The con
stant- rip . etition of anger to the North
, ern man, in the Southern- States is to pro.
yoke the very condition of things said to
exiifift—Post. - - - •
flarThOrfassaabuietts nattier of Rep
resentativis on Wednesday ratified the
ConstitAicmal amendment by a vote of
120 to 22 ! ninety-seven members being ab
sent or dodging the vote.
Massachusetts had heretofore refused
t 6 ratify the amendment; and this action
is taken after it had been fully bottled
that such amendment was not to be a fi
nal adjustment. It is now ratified by the
leading radical State, as a trick to de
ceive the people, and serve as an excuse
for -punishing the South for not doing
what Massachusetts does not endorse.
Negro Suffrage South.
Is not the Tribune a little premature in
its exultation over the fact that Wade
Hampton and other distinguished South
Carolina politicians address political meet
ings, without distinction of race or color,
side by side with colored orators ? Does
not this foreshadow the possibibility, at
all events, that the colored vote may not
always be at the command of itinerant
political missionaries from the Northern
States. It would cause disappointment
in some quarters, certainly, if it, should
prove that, in giving the suffrage to the
negroes, Congress had only put an in
creased vote at the command of the South
ern exrebels. Yet this ominous conjunc
tion in South Carolina looks a little like
it.—N. V. Timas.
An Accidental Admission.
We have more than once noted the de
cided discrepancies oftentimes between
the views of the Tribune's correspondents
and the opinions of the editor of that
journal. A special Washington dipatch
March 18, to the Tribune says: " Colo
nel W. S. Fish, who was a member of the
Union Convention of Louisiana, the as
sembling of which caused the riot and
massacre in New Orleans last July," ikc.
There aro a good many people beside the
Washington correspondenvif the Tribune
who entertain precisely this opinion about
the " cause" of the July riot in New Or
leans.—N. Y. World.

THE ALEXANDRIA ELECTION.-A muni
cipal election was held at Alexandria, Va.,
on the 6th inst.,
which resulted in the re
election of Latham, conservative, as may
or, by 63 majority. Previous to the elec
tion the rads and darkies held a mass
meefting and put a negro named Tucker
in nomination. The darkies were in
structed to offer their votes, and, if refus
ed, the white rads would open a poll for
them. The election commissioners refus
ed the negro vote, and the radsaccording
ly opened a poll and took more than one
thousand negro votes, with which they
will hereafter attempt to sot aside the
regular election.
The Senate and the Soldiers.
We were sorry to notice during the
session of the Thirty ninth Congress, just
cloned, a determination on the part of the
Senate, which was consistently carried out,
to reject the nominations of many wor
thy, patriotic officers, who had served
with fidelity and distinction in the Union
armies, merely because they did not ac
quiesce in all the extravagant measures of
the radical majority. This is simply per
secution, narrow minded and unjust, and
cannot be sustained when the matt&
comes fiiirly before the people. We hope
the Senate of the new Congress will show
a brighter record upon the conclusion of
the present. session.—New York Herald.
But the new Senate continues to play
the old tricks.

Radical Love for Soldiars.
_ "Mick" of the Cincinnati Commercial,
a reipnblicaopaper, in a letter from Wash
ington, furnishes the following evidence
of the radical regard for soldiers:
Colonel . Bassei Langdon has been re
jected a second time as Assessor of the
First District of Cincinnati. There is
personal malice at the bottom of this—
nothing else. Col. Langdon was a good
soldier, and deserved better treatment
than he has received at the hands of the
Senate. The "loyal" stay at homers have
hounded him out of his place. Let them
keep on.
Most of the rejections of the Senate
thus far have been of men who did good
service in the war. But then, you know,
there are more things iu modern loyalty
than our philosophy ever dreamed of.
—Thousands of Democratic soldiers
who had been inveigled into the grand
radical trap—the Grand Army of the re
public—have left the organization—de
claring that its objects are mainly politi
cal, and some of them so unmanly and
treasonable that no true patriot or soldier
caaremain after getting an insight into
the motives of the leaders. The leaders
are all radical politicians.
—Phil. Sheridan, finding that the Jar
kies would not be allowed to vote at the
New Orleans municipal election which
was to have been held on the 11th, gave
order that no election should be held.
Talk about Gesslees cap and old World
despotism after that.
—The official returns of the municipal
election in Harrisburg. on Friday last give
the Democratic candidates an average
majority of 225 in a vote of 2,057 a gain
since last October. The Democrats Car
ried every ward in the city. •
—ln York, David Sinai!, Democrat,
has been re elected Chief BurgesA by a
majority of 317 over David E. Small, re
publican. •
—The Democrats of Norristown elec
ted their whole ticket. Last year the re
publicans had 35 majority in the borough.
—ln Marcus Book Borough, Delaware
county, the Democrats elected their tick
ettor the first time in twenty years, The
majorities range from 15 to 32, "
