Election l Tuesday October 13, 1868.
rer Th e Wilkesbarre Record of the
Times keeps Grow's name up for Vice
President, in spite of Curtin's selection by
its party as their choice for the State.—
Theditor is displeased because the Sen
ate does not put the President under ar
rest during the impeachment trial. It
is proposed to build a lunatic asylum in
that village !
The Impeachment Trial.
On Monday, March 30th, the trial of
the President was formally opened by a
three hour's speech from Butler, oue of
the managers. It is a wild, windy, polit
ical harangue, calculated to stir up politi
cal passion, and composed to a great ex
tent of misrepresentation and abuse of the
President, and distortion of legal princi
ples to suit party purposes. As the Llouso
ordered 40,000 copies to be printed at the
public expense, for use as a partisan elec
tioneering document, it is evident that
the Radicals are not only bent on making
a partisan use of the trial, but intend to
spend the people's money to aid them.
On Tuesday the trial Was resumed, and
damaging points established against the
Radicals. First, they showed that Stanton
was appointed Secretary of War daring
Lincoln's first term in 1862, but had no
later authority to act from Lincoln, and
none from Johnson. Next, when objec
tions were raised to some irrelevant testi
mony being heard, the Chief Justice ruled
that it might be received ; whereupon the
Radicals were thrown into excitement,
and a denial was put in that Chase had
any right to decide any points ; as Chase
insisted upon his privilege, the. Rads in
dulged in an angry debate, and a motion
was made that thopSenators retire to de
oide upon that question. The vote was a
tie, whereupon Chase gave the casting
vote for the motion and carried it, which
caused the Radical fever to rise still high
er—they not Wishing to allow him to vote
at all.
The Senate caucus was long, and an ex
cited debate ensued ; but the extremists
were beaten at every point. The majuri
ty not only decided to allow Chase to rule
points, subject to appeal to Senators; hut
a motion from Sumner, that Chase, not
being a member of the Senate, could not
vote as a member of the Court, was de•
feated 22 to 26 ; and the Rads concluded
they bad made a bad day's work of it, and
Chase was freely denounced.
Wednesday, April Ist, as soon as the
trial opened, Sumner raised the issue as
to Chase's right to vote; bat the right
was sustained 2t to 27. Thus the mana
gers begin to realize that at every impor
tant step taken, both as to evidence and
management, their case grows lame ; and
a tighter turn of . the party screw see:ns
necessary to prevent the defeat of all
their schemes.
April 2d, Gen. Emory and Col. Wal
lace gave evidence in reference to inter
views with the President, in which he
asked if changes of troops had been made;
but nothing important was shown except
that there was no ground for alleging a
conspiracy on account of such inquiries.--
The letter from the President to Grant in
reference to Stanton's suspension was
read ; but the Radicals declined to allow
the statements of the cabinet to be read,
in which they showed that Grant had de
nied the truth of the controversy.
Only one point of importance was pro
ven ; and that was that the President had
telegraphed to the Governor of Alabama
advising that it is proper to stand by the
Constitution, sustain the government,and
place confidence in the people! Unless
the Radicals hold such advice to be a
"high crime," why did they offer it iu ev
idence?
Some evidence was taken on Friday in
referer.ce to speeches, etc. The mana
gers seemed to be through with evidence
except on that point.
So far as any proof indicates the alleged
commission of" high crimes," &c.; it does
not amount to enough, if in a petty larce
ny case, to cause a J. P. to hold a prison
er to bail for trial. As to Butler's article
charging Johnson with having spoken dis
respectfully of Congress, the evidence
would not warrant a jury in giving the
managers one cent (each) damages in a
slander suit.
The only question is : Can two thirds
of the Senate be forced, by party pressure,
to vote for conviction in the face of the
law and evidence to the contrary?
April 4.—Having finished proving they
had no case, the persecutors allowed an
adjournment till the 9th.
The Legislature.
The Governor having vetoed the free
railroad bill, a new one has been passed.
An expensive and annoying registry
bill has been passed. The debate upon it
was very exciting—the Radicals insisting
that negroes were superior to foreigners
or catholics. Rickman led the Radicals
so far that some of them became alarmed
and tried to check him ; but be despises
their evasion of the negro equality doc
trine.
Parson Laudon alleged that negroes are
better entitled to vote than Irishmen. He
is the fellow who declared in Montrose in
1858, that be wished he was as sure of the
kingdom of Heaven as Fremont was of
being elected President. In view of Fre
mont's defeat, what is the parson sure of?
The appropriation bill has been swelled
by so many extravagant items that it was
defeated in the Senate, in spite of the
Radical attempt to pass it by operation
of the previous question. Radicalism and
corruption have run riot in the body ; and
a purification is sadly needed.
Rights of Minorities.
The Radical rule is to pay no regard to
the rights of minorities, as between par
ties; and growing bold, they now begin
to indulge in a similar practice in refer
ence to matters in their own party lines.
At their late State Convention, the Grant-
Curt in majority were insolent towards the
minority who were for Wade, &c. The
effect is beginning to crop out, all over
the State. The Bradford Reporter, a ve
ry Radical organ, says :
" The outrage upon the rights of the
people, perpetrated by the Philadelphia
Convention, has aroused an intense feel
ing throughout the. State. The desire of
the men who controlled the Convention
was to make its action appear as if the
State was unanimously in favor of the
nomination of Gov. Curtin for Vice Presi
dent. To do this they usurped powers
which did not belong to the Convention,
by electing Delegates to Chicago, and de
nying the people of the several Congres
sional Districts the right to choose their
own Representative Delegates. We are
pleased to see the press throughout the
State speaking the feelings of an indig•
nant people,. The usurpation of the Con
vention is littely to have a contrary effect
from that designed by the majority."
The Coming Man,
George Alfred Townsend went to
Washington lately for the purpose of wri
ting letters to a Radical organ at Cleve
land called the Leader. He applied to
Ben Wade for a seat in the reporter's
gallery, and received the following reply
from the prospective successor of George
Washington and Thomas Jefferson :
" Well, that is the dila:meths:. n'eane-.t
paper in Ohio. It's a Chase paper ail the
time. It don't owe me nothing, and I
don't owe it. nothing back. That's no re
commendation to me."
The Leader thereupon wades into Ben
in rather severe style; exposing his bad
grammar ; telling ,how be begged for its
support for the Presidency in 1860; how
his wife besought it to defend him at the
lime of the " Wade and Davis manifes
to ;" bow he asked its aid to contradict
the reports about its drunkenness; bow
be solicited his aid to secure a re-election
to the United States Senate, &e. •We
have only to say that when the Radical
chaps get to photographing each other
they make ugly pictures.—Patriot & Un
ion.
Car The Press, a Radical paper pnb
lisbed at Nat'l:ll4lle, Tennessee, declares
that the negroes in that State will be sure
to vote the Radical ticket, and "not per
plex their heads about taxes, foreign
wars, bonds, or any question that may in
terest white voters. Of course not ;as
long as the Radicals continue to feed
them through the Freedmen's Bureau,
and Bureau agents can keep them organ
ized into loyal leagues,the expenses of
all which are paid by t he people of the
North. But will not the overtaxed and
underpaid white men of the North tire of
supporting negroes in idleness, and living
under a government controlled by negro
votes ? We think so.
rOF'At the recent election in Houston,
a guard of big negroes beset the polls,
stopped any black voter, took his ballot
from him and examined it, when, if Radi
cal„they allowed to deposit it, but if
conservative tore it, up and drove him
away. The judges of election were all
Radicals, and electioneered while receiv
iva ballots. The Houston Telegraph says
the belief is general that the tickets of ne
groes who voted for Conservative candi
dates are taken out at night and Radical
ballots inserted. A prominent citizen is
ready to swear that be saw this ddno
while the election was going on.
—Radical contractors for the supply of
the Freedmen's Bureau with food, cloth
ing, doe:, have a ',Tat thing" of it. They
furnish corn at 5i cents more and 6 pounds
less to the bushel than the ruling price
and measure.
—Two negroes were arrested in Memphis
on Tuesday evening for a rape on a little
white girl eight yearr old.
A Registry Law.
Whenever the Radicals aro eatisfied
they cannot command a majority of the
white freemen of this country at the polls,
they devise some scheme to prevent a
free ballot. Some obstruction is placed in
the way of the way of the citizen voting,
in the hope that a tew votes in every dis
trict may he lost to the Democracy.
One of the methods of doing• this is by
the passage of very objectionable Regis
try laws—which, it many instances make
it a troublesome thing for the citizen to
qualify himself for the ballot. Thus far
we have escaped this hindrance to a free
ballot ; but the Radical legislature, fear
ing that their party may lose the State at
the next election, are about to treat us to
a registry law that will throw numerous
obstructions in the way of voters, and at
the same time prescribes a qualification
not known to the Constitution. We have
not yet seen the bill, but we copy the fol
lowing synopsis of it from the Age of the
the 25th ult. viz:
By the provisions of the proposed regis
try law, before a man can vote the assess
or must first pass upon is right; they
must put his name upon a list to be made
out by them, and state whether he is a
housekeeper and where his house is loca
ted ; if not a housekeeper they must note
who he boards with and atso who he
works for. If he should be a naturalized
citizen, he must produce his certificate to
the assessors, or his name will not go on
the list. This last requirement is a most
beneficial one for our naturalized citizens,
who will no doubt have nothing to do but,
stay at home and wait for the assessorsLo
come around that they may show thorn
their papers. Having gone througN this
ordeal, the voter has secured the first step
to vote.
On the tenth day beforo the second
Tuesday in October, the judge and inspec
tors of each election district meet in their
respective precincts, and, together with
the assessor, constitute a board to hear
proof and try the right of those whom the'
assessors have put upon the list to vote;
(how the assessors are to manage to meet
the judge and inspectors of each electiou
district in wards where there are as high as
fifteen districts, we do not find in the bill).
This is the second ordeal tin• the voter to
pass through, but he has not done yet.—
On election day his vote may again be
challenged, and notwithstanding his right
has once been passed upon by the assess
ors, and a second time by the election
board, and notwithstanding every election
officer inside has seen his proofs, and if a
naturalized:citizen,examined his certificate,
they are authorized to again harrass and
vex him by again compelling him to again
produce his proofs and his certificate of
naturalization before they will permit him
to deposit his vote,and then a slur is to be
oast upon every naturalized citizen, by re
quiring him to present his certificate to
have written upon it " voted," with the
day and month, to prevent him from vo
ting on it again.
The eighth section provides that upon
cotnp:aiut of-eve oitivris residing in any
part of the county, stating, that they are
apprehensive of fraud in any election dis
u jet, tile Court of Common pleas, or a
judge thereof; may appoint two overseers
from any part of the county, to be present
at such election in any such district, with
the privilege of challenging and examin
ing all persons who may offer to v,,te.
This section, under the guise of preventing
fraud, means fraud. The complaint is not
to be by citizens of the district in which
the contemplated fraud is alleged, but by
any outsiders. The overseers are not re
quired to be residents of the district in
which they are to be present, but they
may be taken from any part of the county,
and sent to a district where they are not
entiled to vole themselves, to vex and
hinder those who do live in the district,
' and by their hindrances and delays pre
vent the legitimate voters of the district
from deposiiing their votes. These over
seers are not even to be sworn, so that
there may be no restraint or check upon
their plans; and, we suppose, if some of
the skillful radical managers are sent to
strong Democratic precincts, they may
not only prevent, the vote from being
polled, but may succeed in obstructing
some of the voters and arresting them, as
they did in the former days of the regis
try in the Northern Liberties.
The eleventh section undertakes to reg
ulate file naturalization laws of the Ifni
teil/States, and to direct the judges of
the Courts of the State how they shall act
under those laws. It declares that no
court of this Commonwealth shah natu
ralize any alien within ten days preceed
ing any general election, or within ten
days preceding any presidential elec
tion.
We cannos speak of this bill otherwise
than as infamous, and if passed will be a
disgrace to the legislature. Its sole ob
ject is to place obstructions in the way of
the poor man, and the naturalized citizen
voting, as most of them are known to be
democrats. If the arbitrary terms of the
law are bot complied with the citizen lo
loses his right to vote and the election
board will have the right to reject it.
We believe any such law in this state to
be unconstitutional. The first section of
the third article of the Constitution de
clares the qualifications of an elf ctor. Ile
mast be a " white freeman Of twenty one
years of age, having resided in this State
one year, and in the election district
- Where he offers to vote, ten days immedi
ately preceding such election, and within
two years paid a State or county tax,
which shall have been assessed at least
ten dap before the election." We are
only disappointed in the bill that it does
`not contain a clause disfranchising all who
are not "loyal," as the radical Congress
bas done elsewhere. We call . the atten
tion of oir readers, of all partici!, to this
outrageous bill, sad ask C
o give it
their ouqualified condeinnatioo t . -

Gov. Geary's Abuse of the Pardoning
Power
The Clearfield Republican cites an oth
er instance of the manner in which the
pardoning power is abused by Governor
Geary. From that paper we learn that a
few weeks ago a man named Paulhamus,
in that county, " whose character ie and
always has been bad, was proven guilty
of the crime of swearing corruptly false to
cheat a soldier, who could neither read nor
write, out of eleven hundred dollars."
ILi was cr.nvicted on the evidence, and
committed to prison. But some radical
politicians represented the case to the
Governor as one of" copperhead persecu
tion," and the prisoner was pardoned
within five days after sentence, without
public notice of application, without any
of the docket entries, reasons, evidence, or
notice tot he judge or district attorney.
This is radical love for the soldier, as well
as radical regard for the sanctity of law.
The same paper, in contrast with the
above instance of executive clemency,
says that " in the case of Erhard, who
plead guilty of larceny in this county, and
who served nine months of his term, and
then was dying of consumption, this most
consistent Governor required the literal
compliance with every one of his rules,
and this, too, although, conrt, jury, dis•
tuiet attorney, and leading citizens prayed
for his release. The reason of this differ
ence was, that Erhard was a Democrat,
Paulhatnus a republican."
The Impeachers.
The character, or rather the want of
character, of the leading managers of the
impeachment, is one of the singular fea
tures of the drama which opens today in
Washington. Butler and Bingham com
bine their peculiar talents to effect a con
viction of the President of the United
States. Thesetwo impeachers have help.
ed to make each other known. Not quite
a year ago, Butler formally charged
Bingham, on the floor of Congress, with
guilty complicity ill ajudiciat murder, per
petrated through the prejudiced and has
ty action of an ignorant, illegal tribunal.
Butler declared, what subsequent devel
opments have more fully proved, that
Mrs. Surratt was wholly innocent of any
connivance at the assassination of Mr.
Lincoln. Butler went. further. He charg
ed Bingham with dishonestly obtaining
the comdemnat ion of this innocent woman,
by suppressing the testimony that would
have shown her innocence. All this ap-
pears in the rccord of the Congressional
debates for 1867. 13ingham's reply is
there too. If he did not cleanse himself,
ho most successfully bedaubed Butler,
charging him with theft and other kna
very too notoriously a part of his ill fame
to need to be recalled. The qualities
which they thus recognized in each other
are now to be jointly used to secure an
other unjust. condemnation.
—M'Adam, a Tennessee negro, who
was recently pardoned out of the State
prison, to which he had been sentenced
for committing a rape upon his mother in
law, is raising a company of negro militia,
having been commissioned captain for
that purpose by the . " loyal," "reconstruc
ted," radical state authorities.
—By depriving the President of the
means of carrying the tenure of office act

bill to deprive that Court of jurisdiction,

How the Bads Lost only NM In New
limplft).
.While the rads are rejoicing over the
fact that they have lost only about 800
votes in New Hampshire, Democrats are
." calculating" that if this loss is followed
by like losses in Connecticut, it will carry
the Democratic majority in that State to
nearly 2,000. A Concord correspondent
says that to gain their much reduced ma
jority in New Hampshire, the radicals re
sorted to a systematic bribery heretofore
unheard of in that state. In Wof borough
a closely contested town; the racal's rul
ing price for votes was -from 825 to 75.
The Boston Commonwealth, which is un
lderstood to be the only organ of Senator
Sumner, says that money enough was sent
linto New Hampshire to put ten weekly
I political j lurnals in every family in the
I state. The Commonwealth adds:
We confess there was a good deal of
nervousness as to the result of the canvass
in New Hampshire. Money was freely
spent to aid in the result—we try to think
legitimately—in paying for speakers, mu
sic, ike., - The sums sent directly
from this city, by an interested Commit
tee, were fearfully large for a state of the
size of New Hampshire.
Brutal Outrages.
Near Knoxville, on Tuesday of last
week, a brutal outrage was perpetrated by
a negro named Geo. Walker on the person
of Mrs. Rogers, a married lady. The lat
ter, with her two children, was returning
from a visit, when she was accosted by
Walker, who first made base proposals to
her. On her refusal he knocked the chil
dren down, then knocked his victim down,
accomplished his purpose and made his
escape. He was afterwards arrested and
identified by both the lady and children.
Outrages of this kind by negroes are be
coming alarmingly common through the
South.
bliss Emily E. Ledbetter, eighteen
years old, who lives three miles from At
lanta, Ga., visited that, town on Monday.
On her return she was h.llowed by a negro
named Henry Brown, who, when she had
reached a secluded spot on the road, seiz
ed and ravished her. He was arrested.
