Congress has been over five months in session, and has not passed or 'mended the Tariff; has not passed or amended the Revenue Laws; has not done anything for the commerce, shipping or labor of the country; has not passed or amended any laws for the settlement of the Indians; I has not passed the Funding bill ; has not amended the currency acts; has done no thing for resumption of specie payments; has not settled difficulties with Canada respecting Reciprocity, or with San Do mingo and St. Thomas, respecting pend ing treaties. It has, however, ousted half ♦dozen Democratic members of Congress duly elected by the people; has kept up taxes both by duties and square levy to, the utmost ; has re-admitted the States of Tens and Mississippi in order to get more Totes for bad jobs, but has again kept out Georgia, with twb Senators, who were Georgians, but who could not be bought, bribed or coated to do a mean or bad as tion. If it takes five and a half months to do and not to do all these things—to do all that is wrong, and fail to do anything that is right—what may we expect by the time the session is extended to July or August P By reference to our Congress ional summary, it will be seen that noth ing is doing but to talk, talk—buncombe ; and draw, draw—salaries. Staid by the Helm. Never in the history of our country was it more necessary that the pure Demo cratic principles that have ever character• iced our noble party, shconld again bear sway, and never was that party more un animous in its determination to be fitly arrayed for the contest, to resent the de bauching libel upon the purity and sanc tity of the angle-Saxon blood that fired the souls of the heroes of "seventy-six," and which to-day boils with just indigna tion in the veins of their true descend ants,than is now manifested from staid old Connecticut on the Atlantic shore to gold- en California on' the placid Pacific. The Radical party who have been pilfering one by one from the those blood-bought rights preserved to us by adherence to the pure principles of Democracy, and who have thus far succeeded so well in eluding the popular will of the masses, like every other assassin who has expiated his crime upon the scaffold, have been led on step by step in their mad career, until so hard ened in crime, with their greedy lnst for power, and fearing that itazgri ht Aip.fron3 Aerate attempt upon the life, liberty pros perity and happiness of the nation to per petuate their rule, as to merit by the no ble white freemen o' our country a cer tain and ignominious death at*the ballot bar. We are glad to see such a unite?. oppo sition in the ranks of the Democracy ev erywhere to bartering away their pure principles in a wild bunt after negro votes. We claim that the opposition of the Dem ocratic party to this base fraud and decep tion, which confers the ballot upon the negro, is not from any prejudice or ill- Will to the black race, bat from the firm belief that it is unsafe to trust them with the ballot, and they therefore will appeal only to white men to rally to the stand ard and wrest power from that organiza tion which has inflicted this nefarious outrage and wrong upon us. We find no fault with the negro. If a man should pil fer from ns our dinner and place it before a hungry dog, we should expect he-would dewy. it, and we should attempt no re dress upon the dog. We chin that this nation was planted, reared and defended by white men. They felled the trees, planted. the corn, erected the log babies, the churches, the school houses, projected the political structure, fought the battle of the Revolution, framed the Constitution, and bunched the nation on its career of unequalled prosperity This was the work of white men, and when the Radical party who have exhaust ed every means to perpetuate power, are forced by deception and fraud to attempt to change our social and political govern ment by the aid of negro votes, the De mocracy will call upon the whte race to resent the insult and wrong. The soldiers who bear the sears of ma ny a bard fought battle, the workingmen 'rho haie been saddled with an enorm ous taxation to support the government in its extravagance, when_ they see that all their blood and treasure has been ez pended not to maintain our noble char ter of liberties and unfurl to the breeze the adored flag of our once happy Union, but has been prostituted to the basest puirses, and finally, to cap the climax, when it, is proposed to 471 g them down with-the nauseating pill of negro equali ty, will enlist under the Old Banner of white suffrage, which Democracy has ev er kept floating in the breeze. Let the Democracy of Susquehanna minty be marshaling for the glorious contest. Id there be no shuffling of the Aealto4Topitiate the "new citizens," or staimiontng in the leastlof those noble principles which.. ha ve , "heretofore a. rip _thiracterized its opposition to Bakal tyranny and oppression. Let us ' 'xkot adopt any.of " the egweed • deceptive tile** of the party by:fickhog thoilkiiiis of the colored um with the fdr*OriAtreillsd_jipitko& WWI Orratii** - rte.: sal' their own ends, and then cast him aside as they have many of our white foreign born citizens, but let us be honest with them, and melanin, the suof the white race which was o 'lied of God, and instituted by man, in each and every fundamental principle of our governuient, and which to-day the negro knows and is, free to acknowledge. The shout of victory which has accom panied almost every political contest since the promulgation of this most debasing act, bespeaks that the white, honest, har dy yeomanry of this nation are awake to the imminent danger of • the sanctity of their hearth-stones under the, conniving rule of the present corrupt Organization. Let us follow the old path of duty, appeal to the white masses, nominate honest men for all positions, and eland by the helm at all hazards, and we believe a glorious vic tory will be ours. Clad in this shining armor, let us draw the sword and throw away the scabbard. We want no cowards In this tight, For they'll our colors fly ; We want brave, honest hearted men, Men not afraid to die. My - Morrow B. Lowry is a candidate for re-election to the State Senate. There is considerable opposition to him in the Republican party, but he intends to run whether he receives the nomination or not. Lowry has an immense amount of energy, is not very scrupulous about the means he employs, knows all the ins and outs of political intrigue, and will be hard to put down. There are several other candidates for the position in the Repub lican organization of the Crawford dis trict, and a lively shindy will probably be be result. The Ring of the True Diets& The Democracy of Philadelphia, true to their old-time principles, and fully re alizing the importance of action at the present crisis, have organized as "The Central Association of Pennsylvania Democrats," and have adopted resolutions which will awaken a responsive thrill in the bosom of every true Democrat in our State. The proceedings of the Associa tion are given as follows by the Age of Wednesday : At a meeting of the Central Association of Pennsylvania Democrats, held Satur day evening last, at its rooms, No. 1023 Walnut street, Luther Martin, Esq., in the Chair, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the "Central Associa tion of Pennsylvania Democrats," in or der that the principles it advocates may be fully understood, hereby asserts: That the object of its institution is to defend the Constitution of the United States in its original integrity, and main tain those fundamental doctrines of con stitutional Democratic government which Jefferson and Jackson made the founda tions of State sovereignty, popular liberty and a perfect union of these States. That the so-called Fifteenth Amend ment is a fraud. It is only a Congres sional usurpation. That the elective fran chise in a State can never be conferred on any of its inhabitants but by the sover eign will of the people of such State. , That the acts of Congress which seek to force the people of Pennsylvania to stir- DOH tefore in the history Of constitu tional legislation, and Is simply despot ism. Resolved, The Radical party are the enemies of the Constitution, and seek to maintain power by usurpations, fraud or force. Regained, That these enemies of the Constitution are using every means which ingenuity can devise to prevent the peo ple from knowing the political and finan cial condition of the country. Jobs, frauds, defalcations in every department of government; taxation on the necessa ries of life.; spies, informers, and "black mail" - on every branch of industry; op pressive tariffs to make the rich the mas ters of the white toilers who labor for their support; gold hoarded for loyal greed to speculate in ; paper money to swindle the workingmen ; elections con ducted by bought Officials; votes taken, but never counted ; majorities forged or produced by fraudulent manipulations; hordes of officeholders who live on the sweat of the labor of the country; these are the fruits of Radical legislation, and the policy of the enemies of the onsti tution, and for all these infamies, defal tiltions, frauds, and corruptions, the Rad ical party is solely responsible. Revival, That the Democratic party has never yet been driven to seek either its policy or its platform from its enemies. It has the courage for this crisis. It has maintained the Constitutiou of the United States for nearly a century, by its patriot ism. It bus added State to State tinder the true interpretation of the powers of the Federal. gorernment. It gave the ; laboring man gold and silver for his toil. The Democratic party did this by the power of its principles and the support of , the white race, and it will yet redeem the country from its present degradation by the help of the true men of America, without seeking the aid of voters, made so by fraud and in defianceuf the will of the sovereign white race, the rightful pos sessors of the political power of this coun try. Resoltrt4 11 need be, the Democratic party. in the future, may accept au ex-' ample from the Radical party, by using the power the white raps is ready to con fer upon the Democracy to take off -the yoke put on the necks of the people by the Radical party. If this should be nec essary, the Radical party cannot complain since it so very anxious the Democrats should accept its precedents, and adopt its policy. On motion, the above resolutions were unanimously adopted, and It was resolved. That they be published in the Age, the Evening Herald, and the Sunday Mercury. Attest: S.E. MEGARGEE, Secretary. Verdlet. On Toiesday the 10th, at five minutes to five o'clock the jury, after an absence Of one' hour and forty roinnbas, returned to their seats. Before they came into the mom the officers of the Court ordered all the, spectating to be seated, but the audi anti did not obey. 'Recorder. Hackett,' who -had left 'the bench at !the time the jury . retired, resumed his sat, and' Then the:jurors =ached hitii thn room in sin gle Ole, and tooktheir places in what The raw "designates their "box."}: As if We of 'what was to wortin,,the !PK .1 11 F.4- '`Wsbol‘ fi r*lt ! *kW a2i prised of the verdict the jury . had agreed -upon, or rightly conjecturing what it would be, cried out, "Now, we want order hoe ;" - "You mast all keep order ;" "No applause will be allowed," and other simi lar instructions; but these instructions badto effect on the audience, as the se- quel will show. The jurors looked paler on their return, Their deliberations upstairs seemed to have blanched their faces. All eyes were turned upon them, and Mr. Brown, the foreman, in a moment was the turg,et at which the gaze of every person in the room was directed. McFarland was calm and collected. Mr. Graharri sat with bowed head and exhibited mach emotion. A whisper went round the room to the effect that thejury had agreed to acquit the prisoner. It was it moment of solemn suspense. Mr. Vandervoot, the Clerk of the Court, called the names of the jar ! ors, and inquired if a verdict had been agreed upon. lie was answered affarma- Then said the clerk : "Gentlemen of the jury. rise and look upon the prisoner." AfcFarland then arose. The clerk ad r dressing him said : "Prisoner, look upon thejury." The prisoner fixed a steady eye upon the twelve men who were to decide the is sue. The twelve men all looked at him. Then said the clerk, addressing them, "How find you the prisoner at the bar, guilty or not guilty. "Nor GVILTY," answered the foreman iu a loud voice. In the langnag,e of the old time repor torial fraternity, "the setae that followed beggared description." Every spectator sprang to his feet. The women alternate ly waved their handkerchiefs and wiped their eyes. Some of them sobbed aloud. The cheering was so loud and long that it was heard in the New Court house and on Chambers street, and brought a rein forcement of spectators to the scene of re joicing. Mr. Graham was so overcome with emotion that for some minutes he was unable to speak. Tears rolled down his checks. and he buried his face in his hands and wept like a child. McFarland, no longer a prisoner, was at once stir ! rounded by his friends, and congratulated on his good fortune. A score of ladies . rushed forward and repeatedly kissed him. One old lady kissed him a dozen times. He stood all this "like a man," and re f turned his thanks for the sympathy which had been so generously accorded him. "I knew it, I knew it," cried one wo- I man, as she imprinted a kiss on McFar land's cheek, "I knew it—l knew it—l knew"—but before she could explaifi I what it was she knew she was pushed aside by another of her sex e rho was de- I termined, if the kissing was going to be general, to have a lip or two in herself. So great was the roy of the ladies over the verdict that they made an attack on Mr. Graham. and many of them kissed him. For some time he was hardly able to speak, and was obliged to receive these manifestations of regard in silence. Af ter a while he said to several old ladies who congratulated him on the success of his efforts, "Well, I can only say that I am proud to know that my course has met the approval of the ladies. When a man gets in between man and wife and destroys their happiness, as Richardson did, he deserves to be shot. That's the only law for such a env. I've always said so, and always shall. There can be no other law than that for such a case." To some others he said, "I assure yon tie &fig 6711iNtioif9. p"tfo"iede'r' - fffri I would be if von were gentlemen. I can only say that I am proud for having pleased the ladies, and I hope that I shall always be able 'to please them on all such occasions." A woman approached the jurors before they left their seats after rendering the verdict, and shook hands with each of them. :he "God blessed" them all, and assured them that they had done the nob lest act of their lives. The jurors rr turned their thanks, and their enthusias tic admirer retired. feel in g, doubtless, thie she had done her duty. Mr. Hansen, the fourth juror. was literally hugged by one of the ladies. She placed her arms around his neck, and poured a perfect shower of kisses upon his cheek. He bore up with marvelous fortitude tinder the unexpected bat pleasant assault, and acquitted himself with honor by kissing the fair one on the brow. • CONGRESSIONAL SVMMARY. CEEEB3 May 9th.—Mr. Wilson from the Milita ry Committee, reported with an amend ment; the bill furnishing artificial limbs to disabled soldiers. On motion of Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, the bill reducing taxation was taken up to afford Mr. Mor rill an opportunity of expressing his views in general on the subject, in view of his expected inability to be present when the subject was discussed. lie favored such a tariff for protection as would induce healthy competition in our mannfactures without grinding down other interest, and, at the same rim-, raiging a proper amount of revenue, Mr. Morrrill peke for-two hours and a half.

The custom originated with the people of the South. the inhabitants of many pla ces assembling after the war was over to strew the graves of the Confederate dead with flowers. It is still kept up there, no particular day being observed, but the va rious communities selecting such oceaff ion as best suits their convenience. In the North the observances are conducted tut der the auspices of an association known as the Grand Army of the Republic- It may seem ungenerous to oppose such a practice either North or Swith. In it self the act of strewing the graves of dead soldiers is one of beauty. It appeals to the imagination pf the beholders, and a cemetery filled with a throng of people en gaged in such a work is a touching and attractive spectacle. The effect is, howev er, to perpetuate a remembrance of the civil war through which the nation has passed, and to keep alive the animosities of section by which it was distinguished. As the people of the South gather around the graves of their dead, the events of the war are vividly recalled, and the hearts of those present are turned regretfully to the past, instead of being directed hopefully to the future. As the people of the North witness the ceremonies of decoration day the fires of hate are rekindled, and that sentiment of common brotherhood which should be the strongest sentiment in the American people is weakened. No such dumb show of an ostentatious character is needed to prove our respect for those who died in defence of the Un ion. The decoration of their graves eau well be left to the hands of kindred affec tion.

PinuitELPEite, May B.—About 2 M. to-day the most disasterous hail storm ever known here passed over the city from northwest to southeast. For nearly thirty minutes there was continuous fall of hail stones from the size of hens eggs to seven inches in circumference. Tht damage done greatly exceeds that of the great hail storm of September, 1867. The greatest force of the storm was along Ilftiad street and in the Southern section of the city. On the south side of Cheit nut street, above Eight, hardly a pane of glass is left On . Broad, street many churchesliml their stained glass windows destroyed. The front of Continental Ho tel, as far as windows are considered, is a perfect wreck. The loss may be computed by thousands of collars. Reports from the outskirts indicate the almost total dertructiou of the fruit trees, which were just in blossom. At 6 I'. M. the bail still remains in piles in the streets. The storm s.'ems to have expended its fury in and around the city. Dispatches from the interior say no hail fell there, and it did not extend across the Delaware. river to Camden. Many of the hotels are greatly damaged, especially the Bingham House, Eleventh and Market streets, the windows being scattered in the whole of its front. People in all sections are giv , ing orders to glaziers this evening fur re ' pairs, knowing there will be.a rush on the trade to morrow. —A Child begining to read becomesdt lighnYl with newspapers because te reads names which are familiar, and he will progress accordingly.
