DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET
JUDGeOF sur:nrarE COURT,
HON. SERGE 'SHARSVIOOD ,
Pm LADELPRIA
Or The rump Congress is veribusy
flxin2., up amendments to the late so-called
ConatitutiOn, to force'negro equality upon
the States without the consent of the peo
ple. From doings reported last week,we
learn that Mr. Wilson (Mass.) introduced
a joint resolution, proposing the follow
ing amendment to the Constitution of the
United States
Article —. No distinction shall be
nride by the United States, nor by any
State, *Doug citizens, in their civil or po
litical rights, on account of race, color, or
previous condition.
Military Reconstruction,
The President has vetoed the supple
mentary reconstruction bill, just passed by
Congress to wipe out the last vestige of
civil rights, and establish an unlimited
military despotism in ten States ; a des
potism that may, under similar excuses,
be extended to other States which may
not vote to snit a fanatical majority. 'rite
bill was passed over the veto iu both
. branches by a so-called " Cwo-thirds"
vote; but the number is less than a ma
j. riiy. Another million of dollars was
voted to Ire used in destroying the Union.
We will publish the veto message next
week. It is an unanswerable oljeet ion to
the Bill of Infamy.
We append the last paragraph, in which
he 'Willies to the action
_of the people at
the ballot box :
With abiding• con fi dence in their patri
oti-in, wisdom, and integrity, I am still
hopeful of the future, and that in the end
the rod (.1" despotism will be broken, the
armedpleel of power he lifted from the
nicks of the people, and the principles of
a violated Constitution preserved.
"A Copperhead Speech."
A good juke was :perpetrated at the
Fair Grounds, Carlisle, at the 4th of July
celebration. A young man from one of
the rural districts, who bad, it seems,giv
en more attention to politics than he had
to the history of his country, stood near
to Prof. Gillelen as he read the Declara
tion of Independence. After listeningat
tentively for some minutes, he turned
away in disgust; and said to an acquaint
ance—"du you know who that man is
making' that copperhead speech ?" His
friend convulsed with laughter, told him
it was not a gpeech but the Declaration of
Independence he was listening to. Our
rural Radical walked of without saying a,
word in reply, but his:countenance indica
ted that he was not at all . pleased with
Thomas Jefferson's sentiments.
Stevens Gives up the Contest
Thad. Stevens already gives up the con
test in this State next fall. - Recently a
correspondent of the New York Herald
published an account of an interview he
bad with Mr. Stevens on political topics.
In this statement we find the following :
"Question—ls the Republican party
well united in Pennsylvania ?"
"Mr. Stevens—l fear that we shall lose
Pennsylvania this next election. Ido not
think that we have earnestness enongh in
the State to unite the Republican
strength, while_the Republican portion of
'our Legislature has been so openly, noto
riously, and shamefully corrupt, that all
the honest people in the State are
.dis
heartened and disgusted. This corrup
tion will , certainly beat us here next else
lion, unless we draw out the Republican
strength by getting up - a furor'or excite
ment on impeachment. • Geary; too, hurts
ns very much. - He is an unhappy failure,
and 'his nomination was an unfortunate
-thing for his party."
Mr. Stevens, on request tried to explain
„this conversation, in which he admitted
that he held to the political views attrib
uted to him. Nothing in the above para
graph was recalled, ulna stands as the
deliberate conviction of the great Radical
leader. When such a man gives np the
contest, the condition of the enemy must
be lamentable indeed, and in a condition
easily beaten with proper exertions on our
part.
Democratic State Central Committee.
- The Democratic State Central Com.
mittee met at the Merchant's Hotel last
night, pursuant to call of the Chairman.
The Committee organized with the
Hon. W. A. Wallace as Chairman, and
the election of N. Strickland, Jr., apd
Pearson Church as Secretaries.
There was a very fultattendance of the
Committee present, and a gftnerai and
full consultation had for the interests of
the party, after which the'committee ad-.

Message of the President,
The. followtng , is the message transmit
ted tolday x addressed to the . Senate of the
United States:: '
I transmit therewith repor4t from the
Secretary. of War and the Atprney-Gen
eral, containing the itiformatin'n called 14
by the resoltmou of the Senate on the 3d
instant, requesting the President to com
municate to-the Senate copies of all orders,
inststunions„ circulars, letters, or letters
of advice issued to the respective military
officeis assigned to the command of the
several militar_y districts under the act
Piassell Mardi' 2, 1887, entitled an aat to
provide for the more efficient government
of the rebel States,and the act supplement
ary thereto, passed March 23, 1867; also,
copies of all opinions given to him by the
Attereey-General of the United States
touching the nonstruetion and interpreta
tion of said and cull correspondence
relating to the operation, construction,
or execution of said acts that may have
taken place between himself and any of
said commanders ' or between him and the
General of the Army, or between the lat
ter and any of the same commanders,
touching tlael . Same subject; also, copies of
all orders issued by any of said command
ers in earryitig out the provisions of said
acts, or either of them ; also, that he in
term the Setiate what progress has been
made in the,.matter of reglstraion under
the said'acts,and whether the stun of mon
ey heretofore appropriated for carrying
them out is probably sufficient.
Leanswer to that portion of the resolu
tion which inquires whether the sum of
money htiretotbre appropriated to carry
these acts into effect is probably sufficient,
reference is made to theaccompanying re
port ,of the Secl-etary of War. It will he
seen from that report that the appropria
tion of $500,000 made in the act approved
March 30, 1867, for the purpose of carry
iog into effect the act to provide for the
more efficient government of the rebel
States, passed March 23,1867, has already
been, expended by the commanders of the
general military districts, and that in ad
dition the sum of i;1,6-15,277 is •required
for present purposes.
It is exceedingly difficult at the lireseet
time to estimate the probable expense of
carrying into full effect the two acts et
March last, and the bill which passed the
two houses of Congress on the 13th inst.
If the existing governments of the ten
States o 1 the Union are to be deposed,and
their entire.machinery to bo placed under
the exclusive control and authority of the
respective district commanders, all the ex
penditures incident to the administration
of such governments must necessarily be
incurred by the Federal government. It
is believed, :that in addition to the two
million one hundred thousand dollars al
ready expended or estimated for, the sum
which will be required for the purpose,
would not be less than fourteen millions
of dollars.
The aggrOgate amount expended prior
to the rebellion' in the administration of
these respeotive governments by the ten
States embraced in the provision of these
acts,the sun would no doubt be consider
ably augtridnted if the machinery of these
Stlites is to be operated by the Federal
government, and would be largely increas
ed ifho United States, by abolishing the
eiistlng St;ste governments, should be
come responsible for liabilities incurred
by them beEcre the rebellion in Imitable
effort to develope her resources, and in no
wise created for insurrectionary or revol
utionary puiprises.
The debtS of these States, legitimately
incurred,when accurately ascertained, will,
it is believed, approximate a hundred mil
lions of dollars, and are held nut on!yr by
our own citizens, among whom are resi
dents of portions of the country - which
'have ever remained loyal to the Union,
but by persons who are subjects of foreign
governments. It is worthy the consider.
ation of Congress. and the country wheth
er, if the Federal government, by action,
were to assume such obligations, so large
- an additio4 to our public expenditures
would not Seriously impair the credit of
the nation ;:pr, on the other hand, Wheth
er the refusal Congress to guarantee the
payment of the debts of these States, af
ter having displaced or abolished their
State gOveinments, would not ,be be view
ed as a violation of gond faith and rcpudi
alien by the National Legislature of
lia
bilities whio these States had justly and
legally inctirreeb.

Absolute Despotism.
The amendatorY Recostrnction bill, so
called, which was finally passed by the
fragment Of Congress, •at Washington,
I -on the i atli, is the titost despotic act yet
perpetrated by the fanatical scoundrels
who now centrol. the country. According
to this bill the acts and proceedings of the
Generals, What;ever they may do, are not
.to be questioned in civil or criminal court
of the United States, while, to render
them almost totally irresponsible in the ex
ercise of their despotic authority, the pow
er of remov;al is taken away from the Pres
ident, and 'transferred either to Congress,
or to military courts who will be in sytn
pathy with the officer who may be ar
raigned fOr abuse of power. A more
shatnefulovanton,and unnecessary destruc
tion of civil liberty than is provided for in
this; proposition is to be-found no where in
any, page in ancient or modern history,
and the people who can sanetiou it by
their ballots, in „coming elections, are al
ready ripe lc:kr having the same atrocious
. tyranny imposed on themsettles and their
children.

Brutal Murder in Tioga.
William Roswell, a man fifty years old,
having a family consisting 'of a Wife and
sTic children, and living in a house on
Wallis' and Ransom's luMber tract,
three and a half miles from Tioga Centre;
was enticed into the woods on Thursday
last, with his entire family, by a men call
ing himself William Parks, (but whose
real name is William Lane,) and alter
having been detained in the woods over
night, and drawn away from the rest of
the party on the follo wing, morninck, was
brutally murdered by having his heal ter
ribly beateti, and his skull - braen with a
club.
An inquest was held on Saturday and
Monday, July lath and 15th, by Dr. T. S.
Armstrong, Coroner.
The wife, two daughters, a son of the
murdered man,and others were examined
as witnesses, and tbefollowing facts
:
William Lane, living on the South side
of the river in the town of Niehols,at
act's Ferry, had been a regular visitor at
Roswell's house for nearly two years past,
paying attentions to his eldest daughter,
Melvina, Lane having a wife and children,
which fact he had carefully concealed
from Roswell's family, but which had be
gan to be suspected by them, while his
visits there were gradually leaking, oat
and coming to be a matter of gossip in
certain localities. A younger sister of
Melvina had seen him at 11. N.
in Nichols, heard Mr. Moore call Lint
"kill Lane," and in renly to her state
ment that "he was William Park-, the
man who was courting her sister," had
been told that his name was Lane and
that he was a married man ; and subse
quently, at Ruswell's house, he was ac
cused of this, which evidently twin?) (al
him. He assured the tinnily he Iva: a
single man and promised to marry tit,.
girl, Melvina ; proposing- to Rosweil and
his wifeao sell their cow and other thir
and go with him to Blossburg, Pa.,whera
he would put them on a farny hcv board
ing the daughter, whom lie would marry
on arriving at Corning. Aecurding, to
agreement the mother and 'Melvina not
lion in the Horton Narrows on Wednes
day 10ih inst., and there agreed to take
the 10 o'clock train the next night,and go
to Blossburg, he to be at their house on
Thursday evening at 6 o'clock, furnish
money to go with, &c. Ile came on the
night appointed at G 1 o'clock, saying that
he had been delayed on the e.irs. About
7 o'clock Thursday evening they started,
as they supposed for the Tioga Centre
Depot, taking no provisions with thenuas •
he wouldibuy whatever was necessary un
til they arrived at Blossburgh. lie had a
bottle of what he called sweetened whis
key with him, which he offered them, and
which made them all so sick that they
vomited in a very few minutes after
drinking it. He also gave them candy,
which made the childrhn sick, causing a
delay of two or three hours in the woods,
where they camped all night. Nest morn
ing he went to Tioga, Centre and bought
crackers for the party to eat, and started
off to show 'Roswell where to get water
liar them to drink, telling them that there
would be no train that they could take
before 3 p. tn. of that day, and that they
had better stay where they were. Alter
they had gone in the direction of the I
creek, the tanilly heard blows, and their
apprehensions being aroused that all was ,
not right, they started in pursuit. Lane
come out from behind some bushes, said
Roswell bad gone to watch the cars, and
they turned and went back to the child
ren, Lane, alias Parks, staying until 5 or
6 o'clock, and not allowing theta to go
away. When he started oil' with Roswell
he carried a large heavy cane or club,
which he did not bring back with him,
but cut another after' returning, which,
witrother circumstances, led the family
to fear that foul play had been practiced
upon Roswell, and they determined to
leave the woods and get away from him,
which they did against his protestations
and efforts to detain them. Getting out
of the woods they told their story to their
neighbors, and on Saturday morning sev
eral persons, including Ezekiel Dubois,
'Cornelius Brooks, Alpheus Cortright,
Stephen Parish, .fr, M. O'Hart, D. Pease,
and others, accompanied by Mrs. Roswell
and Melvina, started In search of Mr. Ros
well, fbund his body lying against a log,
with head terribly lacerated, skull free
tured, with a heavy stick across his neck,
mouth crammed* with leaves and dirt, and
the club which Lane' had when he started
away with him, in the creek near bv,from
which he had evidently been dragged as
indicated by blood and other appearan
ces.
In view of the aforesaid facts prow
upon the investigation, the Coroner's jti
ryrer.dered a unanimous verdict that the
said William Roswell came to his death
on Friday, July 12th, by violence inflict
redupon his 'person with a club, by Wil
liam Lane, (otherwise called William
Parks,) and that the said Lane did wil-.
ful'y and maliciously murder the said Ros
well in manner and tbrtn aforesaid ; which
verdict is duly signed and certified by
Coroner Armstrong and the Jurors
posing the inquest.
On Monday a reward of $3OO was of
fered by Sheriff Truesdell for the appre
hension of. Lane, but up to the present ,
time he has neither been arrested nor any
information obtained as to . his wherea.
bouts, and as he has had three days to
get out of the way before:any movement
µ•:u4 set on foot for his arrest, he is prob
ably a long distanCe from Tioga county
by this time.
Roswell was . a poiarbUt peaceable man',
and had been helped occasionally by the
county. Lane bits been an industrious
mechanic, has a respectable family, and
Was himself respected by his neighbors,
among whom this tiArisaction and the di3-
velopments iitiending it occasion the tit
moet..otOnishment.'
If the motive was the concealment of
his attentions to the daughter, then his
object could not,have been accomplished
short of the murder of the whole family,
which come think was comprised in his
plan, and that the whiskey and candy giv
en them contained poison, and' that, tail
ing of its purpose, the club cut after re
turning from the murder of Croswell was
intended to finish the bloody job. Cer
tainly tie small amount of money realized
from the sale of the cow, etc., (only sortie
$3O or $ to, which was in possession of the
wife, as Latie is said td, have known,) was
no sufficient, motive for so terrible a crime
by a man in Lane's position and circum
stances; and it seems almost incredible
that any sane man, of ordinary intelli
Bence, could have expected to kill a
whole family under such circumstances,or
even the singe member of the family
which be lid kill, and escape detection. 4-.
Indeed, the whole history reads more like
a ruin:lnce than a reality, including alike
the conduct of Roswell and his family
and the supposed murderer.—Owego Guz-
Pennsylvania Steel.
It may not be generally known that at
Harrisburg, Pa., there is in successful op•
envion an estabishment for the produc
on of steel. It is made- fr om the ordin
ary pig iron orour State, and is of remar
kally ixeellent quality, especially adapt
ed fir rail 4. It is asserted on reliable au
thority, ba•ed upon actual tests, that rails
made of this steel will wear twenty times
longer than the iron row in general use,
wh:le the cost is not over twice that of
iron rail. In 1866 nearly tour millions
worth of steel rails and locomotive tire
were imported from Europe, the quality
of which bears no comparison to that of
the Pennsylvania make. The importance
Of steel mac hence be inferred. Our good

lUND OUT TOO LATE.—We under
stand that one of the associate Judges of
Vnion couniy, swears that had he known
the monprel party was so hard up, that i.
was compelled to choose for a candidate
for the Supreme bench, a man who had
neNer got higher than associate Judge,
he would have made a desperate effort for
the pu- , ition himself. What a pity it is he
hadn't tbund out this fact sooner. Union
county instead of Allegheny,might have
had the candidate.
—The expenses of tft Indian war are

been made with Russia for the cession of
the North American possessions of that

—Three more persons have died in
Franklin, Kentucky, in consequence of
tvounds received during the recent riot in

fruit of Radical policy.
The Union: Pacific Rail-
Road Co,
RR now constructing a Railroad from Omaha, Ne
braska, westward towards the Pacific Ocean, ma
king' with its connections an un broke., lino
ACROSS THE CONTINENT• •
The Company now offer a limited amount of their
first SuntruAtiE BONDS having thirty )ears to run and
bearing annual interest, payable on the that day of Jan
nary and Juiy, in the city of Now York, at the rate of
six per Gent in gold, ut ninety cents on the dollar.
This fold is already completed to Julesbnrgh, tra
miles west of Omaha. and is fully equipped. and trams
are regularly running ovi r it. The Company has now
on•hand sufficient iron. ties, &c., to finish thuremain
lug portion to the t astern base of the Rocky owl
talus. I tl miles, Which is under contract to be done in
September of title year, and - it is expected that the en
tire road will be in running order from Omaha to its
Western connection with the Central Pacific, now being
rapidly built eastward from Sacramento, Cal., during
1670.
Means of the Company
tslimating the distance to be floilt by the Pnion Pa
cific to he 1.565 miles. the United States Government
issues Its six per cent., Thirty year bonds to the Com
pany as the road is finished at the average rate of about
*28.2ri0 per mile, amounting to V. 1408,000.
The Company Is also permitted to issue its own first
Mortgage Bonds to an equal amonn2, and at the same
time, which by special Act of Congress are made a first
mortgage on the entire line, the bonds of the United
States being subordinate to them.
The goy, rument makes a donation of Ii?..CM acres of
land to the mile, amounting to 20,031,000 acres estima
ted to be worth .55:30.000.000. making the total resonrces
exelm.ive of the capital, $118,110,000; bat the full value
the lands cannot now be realized.
The authorized Capital stock of the Company is one
hundred million dollars of which we millions have al
ready been paid in, and of which it is not supposed that
more than 52.5 millions at most will be required.
The cost of the road Is estimatind by competent engi
neers to be about one hundred million dollars, exclu•
site of equipment.
Prospects for Business
The railroad connection between Omaha and the east
is now complete, and the earnine% of the Union Pacific
on the sections akently finished for the first two weeks
in May were $113.600. These sectional earnings as the
road progresses will much more than pay the interest
on the Company's bonds, and thothrough business over
the only I ne of railroad between the Atlantic and Pa
cific must be immense.
Value and security of the Bonds
The company respectfully submit, that the above
statement of facts fully demonstrates the security of
their Bonds, and aiadditional proof they would suggest
that the Bonds now offered are loss than ten million
dollars on fin' miles of road, on which over twenty mill
ion dollars have already be , a expended;—on 330 miles
of this road the cars are now running, and the remain.
tog 18l miles are nearly completed.
At the present rate ofiprerainm on gold 'these bonds
pay annual interest on the present cost of
Nine Per Cent,
and it is believed that on the completion .of the road,
like the Government Bonds, they 11l go above par.
The company intend to sell but ultra ted a tat the
present low rate and retain the rlgh to Atha .e the
price at their option.
