WHY P .very citizen , of Schuylkill County, inde pendent of 'Party predilection, who' is interes ted in the preservation of law and order in our midst, Will be tempted to exclaira -"why?" when he learns that on Monday last the Commissioners of this County refused to re-, sign the jury-wheel to the new Jury Com missioners, Messrs Cr..s.xvse and KAEnCriElt, when requested to do so by.the latter named gentlemen in their ,official capacity and in dicharge or their sworn dutYtaider the law. It is indeed, pissirig strange , that there can be found men in this County to oppose meas ures that Republicans and Democrats and even the Court itself, have declared necessa ry, and which will entail noadditional • pence upon thetas-payers of the County. Take the Jury law. In the past the Court ezoneratedifself from blame in the" matter of the escape of criminals from merited pun ishment at t ine hands of the law, :by laying ne blame 6n the wretched" character of the. jgries drawn. Reform that and justice would be m• ted out. Very well. A. good jurylaw uric r —Fed at the last session of. the Legis•-• lstut e for 'he purpoie of (denting the needed reform. Two gentlemen, One a Republia.a the other a Democrat, unezceptiop..ble and a cceptable. were appointed Jury Coecois 7 sioners last week by Governor GLART slonday last they attempted to enter upon the discharge of their important duties, the good result of which wsnid have ation been apparent, in the elevated character of our juries, when they were stopped from acting and the matter now remains, to be decided by the Supreme Court before which the case will bc carried. . • It is proposed also by the.opponents of re form, law and order •in this 'County, to test before the Supreme Court the constitutional ity of the' same Act establishing this with Lebanon and Dauphin, anew Judicial Dis trict for the trial of criminal causes.: Not withstanding the fact that Judge Bros has declared in effect, that he is glad to be re lieved, from the duties of President Judge of a Criminal Court in this County; the fact that application was made by Democrats to the last IP.gislnture for an additional Law Judge for . the,County, the duties being too onerous for one; the fact that the Attorney. General of the State has stated most positively, that the Act is constitutional, and the very im portant fact that the mere passage of the Act establishing a new Court has had a good ef fect in checking crime, yet we find men claim ing we presume, to be good "citizens, ar rayed against , ibis needed measure. It. Is wondertul and exceedingly discreditable.— We can hardly believe that Judge "Bros has taken the initiative in this matter; yet when we look at the proceedings as reported in our local columns, they wear the appearance of concert of action between the Court and its immediate surroundings. - Disappointed aspirants for the additional Law Judgeship which was asked for, may be the ones who are directly interested in overthrowing this legislation, rind may be the ones who are act ing so zealously. If £0 the interest in the matter of the elevation of any one of them to the bench, is confined to - them, 'for the Bar and the people very generally, are well sat isfied that the new appointee, Hon. DA.v.rn B. GREEN, is not.only a fair man but a much more able lawyer than any of them, and therefore, just the man for the position. The citizens of lids County who look upon this measure,of a new' Court ant 'responsible juries, as a matter far above the mere interests of party or office-holders, would like to know positively, who the men are who are assu ming the responsibility of attempting to defeat the operations of a measure deemed of the' most vital importance to the protection of life and property here and to the future prosperity of Schuylkill County. These men are not act ing in the interest of law. and order, for the majority of our people is satisfied that. this measure is necessary to their preservation.— " And theminers and workingmen of the Coun ty, nineteen-twentieths of whom are law abiding, worthy, industrious citizens, know that a 'few desperately had men- have inter fered with their Tabor and threatened even their lives in many instances. . These hon est workingmen know that the legislation just procured is necessary• - Why, even before - the provisions of the Act; have gone into full operation, its moral effect is seen in the cessation of highway murders - and rob-. beries.and the stampede of the desperadoes who infested the County for months before its passage. Capital which to the amount of hundreds of thousands of .dollars, was driv en from the County, before we secured this legislation, is now seeking to return, assured of safety under the new Ponce and Criminal C.eirt 'Acts. People throughout the County begin to breathe more freely,_ feeling that there once again protection for their lives and props rty. Under this gratifying state of affairs Schuylkill County is rapidly regatnier a decent reputation threughout the &we, and now the 'spectacle Is witnessed of men in nor midst stepping in, and seeking by the aid of the Supreme Cobrt if possible, to raider null' and void,. the.laws, the mere enactment 'of which has already done so much good. Citizens of Schuylkill Cbunty, - you have suffered by the acts of the assassins and rob bers who have infested the County, - in the. loss of its - good name and in the' withdrawal of capital which world hare given-remuner ative employment to. many thousands of workingmen. One huruan, life is surely worth more thin the pecuniary •interesta or arab - alma pr . - ejects - of partizans . and office= seekers Can you as - lovers of law and order, sustain the action of the men - who are seek ing to defeat by factious opposition, the need ed legislation you have just obtained?.We believe that you cannot and will not. These men have assumed a fearful reSponalbility and if through their acts a. "Reign' of Ter ror" should be reinaug.urated in Schuylkill County by the withdrawal of the protection we have just secured, they will have to an swer an outraged and suffering community, and in a way they will notrelish. . TME 13010IIGH'ELEOTION It is hardly necessary for; as te urge a fpli vote at the election for Borough and Ward offiftna, which will take place on Monday next, 6th instant. By reference to oar local columns it will be seen that the Republicans have nominated a full ticket, and one that_ should command the united support of the party. Mr. MUTER as 'Chief Burgess, would we have eyery confidence, enforce the ordinances of the Borough without fear, fa vor or affection. He would be zealously assisted by Mr. Burptcr - A . High Conitable, while. r. Einzarii.'s fidelity as TreaSurer has for years commanded .the approbation of the community. The various nominationsfor CUtincil and School Board; are satisfactory,, and indicate that there will be a continuant. of that 'system in the management of Bo• rough and Public School matters, which has placed 'our ..flfiances; in good condition, and increased the efficiency of our ichools. We trust that our citizens will show their appreciation of what has been done, and their determination to have every office equal .ly well filled, by attending the polls on Mon day next, and voting for the excellent ticket that has bten placed in nomination by the Republicans. Mr. BELL- re observe, Who for the paat three years has been the. Ittpublican -candi date for Chief Burgess and elected by that party; announces himself as an Independent candidate in opposition to the regular nonil-% nee. Of this we cannot approve.

They concede that one-fifth of the whitei, and no:more, will vote the Radi cal ticket, and claim' that one•Sfth of the blacks will vote with the. Conservatives. From these teneralirations they deduce these results : Conservative whites k 570,000. Conservative negroes - 110,000 Conservative vote Radimd . whites Radical blacks Radical vote On this basis Virginia, Arkansas and Geor— gia are claimed for the Conservatives ; hopes are cherished that South Carolina will go the same way, owing - to the influence of whites over their former slaves ; while the reqtainirg States are coneeded _to the Radicals. This presents the cue quite as favorably for the Conservatives 418 it is likely to turn ont. It is quite possible that they may not realize these expectations. , Ir is announced that the Democratic par ty is to be thOroughly re-organized, and that in the new,political platform the negro must give way: to internal improvements in canals, raproadi and levees. . Courting the blacks has been found an unprofitable game, and It is no wonder that _the work has thus early been abandoned. A. Sun= DIFFERENCE.--111 lieu of the ad vertisements which formerly appeared in the Southern papers, forthe sale ,of negroes, we now see calls for meetings of black and white men; to deliberate on the surest means for promoting the:best interest, of the "two races to whom the rule of the, South_ is now confided:", The labile Advertiser publishes a calk 'for a Public evening meeting Without distinction of color, -the object of which is to establish and promote harmony and accord between the two races who are brought face to face in the new political relations. Two years ago a portion of those invited to this meeting were not allowed to appear in the streets of Mobile after mine o'clock in the evening, with out-_a permit from a white owner, • ' • • SENATOR WILSON is making a very success ful tour through the Southern States, making' radical speeches. Everywhere whites and blaCks gather in large numbers to liiten to words such as man never spoke before in that section. Seven years ago the South was closed to every public speaker who was known to love freedom better than slavery, and no man's life would have been worth a moment's purchase who might take the stump in behalf of Republicanism. Mr. Wilson is the pioneer of the Republican phalanx which will yet canvass the Rebel States to.uphold the principles which triumphed over the efforts of treason. By his present course he will add immensely to his personal populari ty throughout the country, and place himself in the foremost rank of those whom the people love to honor and bust. " FRIENDS OF PROTECTION AROUSIND.-A cular signed by fifty of the leading manufac turers of New Ymk, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and Boston, among whom are Peter Cooper, John Jewett & Sons, and others, of. New York; W. Sellers & co., and Ben. Bullock & Sons, and others, of Philadelphia; Curt; ningham & Ihmsen, and others, of _Pittsburg; E. B. Ward, of Detroit, with others, has been issued, calling a conference of the man ufacturing interests of the country to meei at the Astor House, New York, on. Wednes day next, Sth inst., to deliberate tupon the present condition and prospects of the ma terial interests of American Industry, and to decide upon some method of arousing pub lic attention to the subject. The success which has - attended the efforts of the free trade league in affecting public sentiments by the wide spread distribution of popular doc uments through the country, is cited by the call as demonstrating the necessity of adopt ing some means equally 'efficient to counter act the evil it is working. TUE WAR CiF RACES.—The Copperheads, declared that if the negroes were enfran chised, there would be a war of races. This war of races has resolied itself Into a Cop- . Perheati race for the votes of the blacks, and in,their desperate efforts to obtain their votes, they entirely ignore their allies, the Irishmen, • who are Completely thrown into the back ground. in the North the Irish are courted for their votes, and in the South thelrish are , thrust aside, in order to court the negro vote. Such is Copperheadism. • The Republicans embrace universal suf frage in their creed, in accordance with the - principles of the Declaration- of Independ ence which declares that, all men ate created equal, that is equal 83 far as_ political rights are concerned, - and they are determined to place all whwcan claim. the rights of citizen ship in our country, on an equal political foot- Mg. This was-the cardinal principle of the old fashioned Democracy of the cenntry, un til it was struck out of their creed at. the' dictation of rebels and slave drivers South, and these miserable dough=faCed allies In the North. The Republican party of to-day ern brace in their creed all the leading principles of the Democratic party in its palmy days, • when represented by Jefferson and Jackson. Ir will be remembered that Senator HEN DERSON, of Missouri, who for many years was a prominent Democrat and - slaveholder, told the country plainly; after the act of Emanci pation, that if the ballot should be given to the freed slave, the Freedmen's Bureau and military rule could be dispensed with, thus saving many millions of dollars to the people and restoring peace and prosperity.' His prophecy is being verified. The late slave bidders now that the black has a vote, are now appealing to him to vote with them; be is fairly courted ; the New York World, the official organ of the Copperheads, asserts that the Democricy of ,the North - have abatuloned their war upon the negro, and are drawing their worsted forces ofl The field as best they can ; while the African exhalation is not half so strong as it used to be. AU this is very amusing when we remember how faithfully, the negro; was alinsed by the Cops. whenhe had no vote. Harper well illustrates . the court now paid to the negro by the late slaveholders, in an invitation of WADE HAM; - thE to a son °film to dine with him, Which Stunbo-declines because he has an engage. went to sleep with ""Massa" Femora. All their adulation will prove abortive to win the ne gro. lie shrugs his shoulders and will vote with those he knois to be his friends. , . .

Baker, late Provost Marshal 'and Chief Detective of the-War Department. Philadelphia, P. Ganurrr & Co. - This Book which will be issued by P. GARRETT &, Co. of Philadelphia in a short time, we learn is decidedly the. most interesting- and absorbing 'book of the day, revealing as it does phases of our National History, hitherto sedulously con 7 sealed from the knowledge of the public. . During his five year s directorship of the Secret Service Bureau, General. Baker learned some. strange things, and took an active part -in many. dangerous and at the time very important enter prises. All these secrets are now brought to light, some of them rather compromise gentle men now occupying highly responsible positions ; but the orator fortifies his startling accusatory as tertions by indisputable official documents. The chapters on pardon brokerage.will. be read with interest and amusement by of ; this isa newphase in our National -policy, itUel receives a thorough airing at the hands of General Baker. There is 'also givona very-full and circumstan tial account of the great ponepiracy, from its in ception until the execution of the guilty Conspi rators. There is much that is, new, curious, and interest ing, divnlged in this connection. Tee work is complete in one handsome octavo volume of 700. pages, printed in a superior manner, on stout white paper, and illustrated with seventeen fine engravings, among them a steel portrait of the author. and a faithful representation of the burial place of J: Wilkes Booth. It will be sold by-sub scription may. -• ' 2t Toe Anti-rric klinrnr.v., • -Bostett :Vidknor & Fields. In the May number chapters twelve to fourteen' of "The Guardian .Angel," hold th,J leading place. These are followed by an exceed ingly interesting article mitten. by Mr.- Parton, sketching the history of that wonderful inven tion, the sewing -machine.. It contains, as a mat ter of, course,. numerous facts very racily told about - the early history of Mr. Elias Howe - and the struggles through which lie finally achieved Success. "The Genius of Dickene"is discussed by Mr. E. P. Whipple': in one of his finished. es says. He thinks that Dickens is not tube ranked with the greatest masters of characterization. C. - . 13. Shanty discusses "Germany in' New York" in an entertaining article sketching'the interior of • the lager-beersaloona, the German theatres, &c., &c., and describing the Turn Vereins, the Mut, zon Feste and-other institutions peculiar to this nationality. "Katharine Alorne" apparently comes to a conclusion. J. 0. Culver tells quite bkiltully . a rather sensational story, "The. Plalidiff Non suited ;" C. C.

"THE DrixoND Dres.ENs"—Davin COPPERFIELD. —Fortv-five thousand'copies of the three current issues of Ticknor d Fields' (Boston) "Diamond- Dickens"—"The Posthumous . Papers of the Pickwick Club," "Oar Mutual Friend," and' the "Personal. Experience of David Copperfield the Younger".—had been sold, up to the day when the latter appeared. • That the enterprise is a success is no less certain than it is gratifying to all who admire its standard character, convenient size; 'clear type and general comeliness. And lt is al.. most equally satisfactory to know that the Mus t/Mlle author shares in the profits of the publish ers, accruing from its sale—that, although stolen fruit is considered "sweetest," his labor does not go unremunerated. Socially, Americans may not owe as much to- Dickens as do his countrymen for his Attempts to eleviate their humanity, yet, in a literary point of view, we mast, acknowledge that no one, at home or abroad, delights us more than he has done for thirty years past. "Pickwick," the .initial of his humorous works, and still the most amusing ; "Our Mutual Friend," his latest,. and by many deemed equal to his best; and "Da vid Copperfield," undoubtedly the superior of all the rest, are now before the public in this dainty form and-dress, and their rapid Sale .well attests the popularity they have achieved. ' Mr. Eytinge is minor our youngest American artists, and his illustrations of the "Diamond Dickens" are meeting- with warm praise in all . quarters where criticism is Considered valuable. His pencil simply reproduces- in form the penned outline of the novelist's creation, and that in a manner which' does credit to this issue. Every lover of Dickene elvinid get this edition. The illustrated volumes are $1.50 each, and the plain, $1:25. They can be obtained at tbe.pnb- Ratters' prices at the bOokstore of Barman.. Ramsey, this Borough. . • . • Affairo. Weekly Almanac.
