WHAT _OUGHT CONGRESS TO Dot
That the whole question of suffrage will
come up for review in Congress during the
session about to open, is rendered , apparent
by many indications. The incongruities
inherent 'in, and the mischiefs resulting
from, the'existmg posture of the subjectl are
so.many and flagrant that a readjustment
kis demanded by , the most imperative Con
aiderations of public Policy. Let us be
specific:
1. The Republican party, by its eleaten
trey principles, stands pledged to luni
-"yersal suffrage. This phrase, whateverlimi
tations may be admitted by reason of crime,
pauperage and idiotcy, must be construed;
in general, to mean that all persons upon
whom the burdens of government are laid
shall participate, through representation,
in the direction thereof.
2. Prior to the rebellion suffrage rested
upon a decidedly narrower basis in the
Southern States than in the Northern !ones.
It has happened, through the progress of
events, that suffrage has a broader fOunda
tion in most of the States that' engaged in
the revolt, than in many of those that did
not.
3. The period is approaching the regu
lar enumeration of the inhabitants. Under
the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitu
tion, an apportionment of representation
will be made among the 'States, and it is al
together ilesirnble to introduce perfect uni
formity.
4. Questions growing out of differences
of race are much more likely to receive a
satisfactory solution by admitting all to an
,equality of political rights, than by, mein
taining arbitrary distinctions. Theie latter
necessarily continue old passions,prpjudices .
and aggravations, and prevent that unity
which is one 'of the most essential .condi
tions of national repose. i
5. The foreign element in the population
is large, Loth absolutely and relatively.
Perhaps it now hears a greater proportion
to the whole number, of inhabitants than
it will at any future period. There is a
limit to the depletion of European'nation
by emigration, and the maximum seems to
have been reached, while the ratio of in=
dividuali born in this country is steadily
,
augmenting, 'anti must continue so to do.
Whatever evils, therefore, are incidental,
according to the judgment of any class of
thinkers,in the inflow of poptdation from
ahroadind whether'we assent to that jadg
ment or: note--those evils, in the normal
order of events, must diminish, taking the
country through. In paticular localities—
is some of.the denser cities—the raischiifs
may, continue to increase, by reason of Om
porary and limited causes; hut," on the
whole, even there a tendency , to improve
ment cannot long be waited for in vain. .
6. Universal Suffrage certainly ✓implies
that foreigners shall be admitted to citizen
imp, in as absolute a degree as personswho
are native born. The genius of, popular in.
stitutions requires as.much. .The argument
in this direction is strengthened by the fact
that foreigners constitute _a very. considera-
ble part Of l the entire population. So far as
they are, o f shall be, unreasonably excluded
-from direct participation in Political con
cerns, the government is made to assume
an oligarchic aspect, which can be defended
only by argnments and appeals drawn frOm
national or theological bigotries.
6. Of Course, this' does -'not haply 4 that
conditions of citizenship shall not be pre
scribed;' either ' for: aliens or native-born.
Government must `necessarily declare who
shall exercise political rights and orr what
terms. Ent the terms ought not to be in
, vidious, but substantially' equal. Concern
ing what is equal ,between aliens and . Dar
..fives, under this heiid, opinions will differ
through a variety of minim. Into - these
differences-Of opinion it is not our purpose
to enter, because we do not conceive that
what we might offer would.tend to proniote
, agreement. All we desire to do here, is to
say that we lean to the side, of liberality,
discarding ali factitious distinctions'.
7. Tint insufferable frauds are steadily
committed in Connection with Naturaliza
tion is a .matter" of general notoriety.
.These frauds have latterly become`so gigan
tic as to, invOlve, in public estireation, the
ty and uPrightness of many of - the ju
dicial tribunals. Practically, all aliens
vote who are not restrained therefrom by a
sense of personal lionur. Unless this was
so, the frauds wouldn't be , on BO gigantic a
scale.
8. Another mischief that requires reme
dy is colonization. liobody imagines that
an effectual atop can be put to this infamy;
but it can be circumscribed and abridged.
ito this end'it is essential that a thorough
registry of voters be established, and that
it be c ompleted each, year for a considerable.
period before the day of election. It is
portant;also, that the State elections be all
held on the mune day—. The , frequencY of
alectioni has leng been felt to be an evil,
andbence municipal elections bate, in many
instances, and with good„ effect, hen
charigiifso as to occur. on same day as
State;elections. It may Muir° the concur

which would. necessavilyd be' , .the ViPreme

frage upon .all adult"- male citizens, except in
cases of crime, insanity, idiotcy and pauper
age, upon a raidence in the proper prechiCt,
and registry therein, .for - six months or .
twelve months prior to any given election..
10. If Naturalization shall be Continued
in anything like its present form, the State
Courts should be prohibited from meddlbig:
with it ; stringent rules shotdd lie . provided'
for controlling it, including public notice in
newspapers of all applications for citizen-:
ship, with the day when each tale will be
heard, thus nifording proper opportunity for
examination. Excluding the State Courts
.
from adminis , tszing the NaturalizatioU laws
would require tbe appointment of Commis
sioners for the different' counties, before
_whom each' of the cases could be revirged.
Upon'their t i l ret dects conldbe entered,
and certifi !issued.. , But these ponimis
sioners should be Isubjected to r strinient
rules, and act under special penalties.
11. But the tendency of popular senti
ment is to a iodiffcation of the Naturaliza
tion Laws rather than to increased rigor.
li - sorrie of tare Northwestern States suffrage
is allowed to aliens • upon filing certificates
of intention 'to become citizens. All the
projects for amendments tolthe Coruititution
which have fallen under our observation
have contemplated a shorter probation than
that now , exacted. The treaties recently
negotiated by our Government , withEuro
peen powers, allowing individuals to re.
nounce or resume citizenship at pleasure,
point in the same direction. It is probable,
consequently, that whateier changes may
be made, will inolude a reduction of the
term of residence required as a condition
precedent to Naturalization. ,
12. This will make all the more expedient
and necessary a practical Registry, with
ample opportrinity for identification, and an
actual residence of some months in the par
ticular precinct, as a condition of voting.
13. Property qualifications, whether ex
pressed by the possession of lands and tene
ments or the payment of taxes, will disap-
Pear as trupererogatory and cumbersome.
14. It can hardly be qtestioned but an
amendment, of the general nature here in
dicated,. will be submitted by the two
Rouses of Congress to the Legislatures of
the respective States, and be approved by
enough of them to incorporate it into the
Constitution. Nor is there reason to ap
prehend-that such an amendment . will fail of
giving satisfaction to the majority of The
population. With the abrogation of slavery
and the general tendency to political liber
alism, changes have not only been rendered
necessaxy, \ but the public mind has been
rapidly prepared for therm The movement
which pervades Europe limits roots under
the seas, and makes itself manifest in all
parts of the United States. It is It move
ment that may, indeed, be impeded, but is
destined to continue until it shall reach a
fill aCcomplishment.
THE " ALA BJk DWI DIPLOMACY.
We think our readers may rely upon it
that the Alabama question is at last in the
way of adjtustment. It is stated, at Wash
ington, that "important concessions haie
been made on both sides," our own Secre
tary havbig, by telegriPh, "directed several,
successive re-modellings of the original
agreement" The teit of the treaty: is ex
pected tc• arrive by the next mail, when an
skixious public will be able to discern to
what extent these "re-modellings" have re
sisted the claim of England to recognize the
belligeren4 of other poWers at her own
pleasure. '.'Thereby. • bangs the important
part of the tale for Secretary SuWas-b.
•;--After the preceding miragraph was placed
in type, came to e announcernew
that the terms made by our Minister at Len
'don, having been fully communicated to
our own Government, were considered at a
Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, and disap.,
proved. This, if true, is not a happy illus
trafion of Mr. Szvrann's successide "re
modelling" the original agreement. But
we hesitate to credit the late report as en
tirely correct. Doubtless, the terms made
by our Minister are now under advisement
at:Washingtiort. Very probably these terms
are not satisfactory in all particulars to,
Mr. Samara), and no one has supposed that
they would be. But we doubt if the Presi
dent concurs with his Premier, as much
as we doubt that the minister would have,
yielded up the Secretary's favorite point at
Louden without some very cordial under
standing, not to say express instructions,
from his namesake at the White House. And
we do not doubt that the result will convict
the President of playing fast and loose with
his Cabinet counaellors in thirs affair, as he
has done more than once before.
Tielther the President nor his Secretary
will care to take the responsibility of reject
ing this treaty, whatever its terms may be,'
without taking the advice of the Senate,
which meets ten days hence. That body
constitutionally co-operates with the Execu
tive in the ratification of treaties, and in the
practice of the goderninent it has been re
peatedly appealed to for its advice pending
the conclusion,. of important negotiations.
In the present affair, the public consid
erations involved are quite too grave to
justify the Executive in terminating, or even
suspending, thenegotiation, much" less In
absolutely rejecting the attained results,
without the proper- reference to the Senate.
And this disposition' of the affair may very
safely be, anticipated. Regardlessk of any
conflicting rumors for the next ten. days, We
feel'mach confidante that, whetlier its terms
be approved by the President ' and -:Cab.

A MATTER O F PUBLIC CONCERN
The frequent occtirrence , , of late, of cal I

rumors w ch float about' freely,, inasmuch
as it is bel eyed that the inquest, to be held
by, the Coioner. on Saturday, will result-in
placing at! least a portion of the facts in s
clear light. ~ • ,
We'are aware of the difficulties which the

gers. If i the recent disasters and loss of life
upon their line are the result of circum
stances beyond the CoMpany's control, the
fact shoold be, known, in justice to them.
But if these results are due to any short

SHERIDAN ON THE WAR PATH...
Szmarnan's winter campaign' against the
Indians contemplates the simultaneous
inotement of eight columns of troops, from
as may different points on the Northern,
Eastern and Southern borderi of . the plains,
ill to conrerge upon a common centre upon
the Republican Fork and Canadian rivers.
A dispatch from Kansas says :
"The converging 00111 MUS are now on the
march. They cover a vast square of terri
tory, Whose sides are more than four hun
dred miles long. The eight columni of
troops aggregate overthree thousand cav
alry, with sufficient aisaount of infantry to
guard the base of supplies and >the trains.
Picked scouts, plainsmen accustomed to
the - Indians and their countryfand guides
accompany each command. The Indian-,
with the blood of Kansas 'settlers fresh on
their:hands, are falling Southward before
the advancing army. The hostile warriors
number between three and four thousand,
and will hardly be able to resist the forces
now being sent against them. A, heavy
snow storm set in this evening, and up to
the present writing has fallen to the depth
of about six inches." •
One of the most delicate, and perhaps
difficult, duties devolving upon SIIVAIDAX
will.be to restrain the auxiliary forces of
volunteer and friendly. Indians, from the
slaughter of the enemy, after they shall have
surrendered. These auxiliaries are inflamed
by resentment for numberless outrages here
,
Aofore perpetrated by the savages on 'the ,
border, and they make no concealment of
their purpose to "wipe out" every red-skin,
after the murderous fashion set by Colonel
01111AOTOIS at Sand Creek. General Suns

inexcusable atrocity.

That the boaxds of elections ought to be

clerks of elections can be adopted which
will, in every case, accomplish this object.
But in all cases where the strength of the
minority, is half, or nearly half as great as
that of the majority, the desired .reprosen

that the election of the three judgea who

THANKSGIVING• PROCLAMATION. '
.BY JOHN W. GEARY, GOVERNOR.
Unto God, our Creatori - we are indebted
for life and all its blessings. It, therefore,
becomes us at all times to render .unto Him
the hOmage of grateful hearts; and 'in the
performance of our sacred duties, to set
apart special periods to "enter into His
gateswith thanksgiving, and into His courts
withpraise." ,For this purpOse, and in an

cordance with an established custom, -I have
designated
Thursday, the 26th Day of November Next,
And :I recommend , that the people of this
Caenionwealtli on that day refrain; from
their usual avocado's' and pursuits, and as
semble at their chosen places of worship, to
"praise the name of God and magnify Him
with thanksgiving;" devoutly to acknowl
edge their dependence, and lay upon His
altars the cheerful offerings of grateful
hearts. . -
Let us thank him with Christian humility
for, health and prosperity, abundant har
veits, the Protection of commerce, and ad
vancement of scientific, mechanical and
manufacturing interests; our progress in
education, morality, vtrtue and social or-,
'der. the increase of our material wealth; ex
emption from pestilence and contagicius di
seases, and the destructive influences of
war; for having blessed us as a people and a
nation, and opened before as the brightest
prospects for the fature• and for all other
blessings, both tempor al and spiritual.
With sure reliance upon Divine favor let
us pray for the forgiveness of our sins,
making public confession of our depend
ence, that we may continue worthy of His
parental love and protecting care; that our
civil and religious liberties and political
rights may remain unimpaired; that we may
remember with gratitude our country's
brave defenders, and cherish with sympathy
their widows and orphan children; and that
our paths through life may be directed by
the example and instructions• of the Re
deemer, who died that we might- enjoy, all
the bleesings which temporarily flow there
from, and eternal life in the world to come.

NATURE'S GREAT ALLY.
It tooltthe World nearly two thousand years to die•
cover and remedy one of the most fatal errors that
mankind has. ever believed in. From the time of
Galen. to a comparatively very recent date, it was
supposed that, in order to cure a :Weise, it was ne
cessary to weaken,tlid already enfeebled patient by
a:IMO* means. Bleeding. blistering, violent pur
gation and salivation were the main reliance of the
not more than efty years sgo. Restoratives
were only administered as supplemental. agents,
after the lancet. cantharides, jaisp and calomel had
done their depleting work. Modern science has ef
fected a salutary reform in inedical treatment. In
place of the nauseous doses once administered in'
cSses of -indigestion, billiousness, constipation, stick
headache, nervousness, intermittent fever, de.;

sults.' The reason why this admirable( bedantcAl
preparation has superseded'the debilitating poisons
of the old materta medico are these : it combines
the propertiet of a wholesome tonic. with those of s
gentle cathartic, an anti.billtous agent, a nervine,
and a blood .depurettt.. Time, while it keeps the
bowels free, regulates the - liver, and parades the:

skeleton Incas and Their Wives.
There is a fine museum in Lima, and one
can spend-a day pleasantly among its relics
and curiosittes: Peru was formerly cele
brated for its mineral productions, and the
assortment of these, the old coin and species
of money, are really a great curiosity. Here • •
too, are the portraits of all the viceroys and
Incas, from the year 1780 up to the present
President. I And, huddled round the rooms,
some in large glass cases, and some sittting
on a small stand or table, are dozens of
skeletons of the old Incas; • who buried
themselves alive at the coming of the Span
iards long years ago, as they were fotilish
enough to believe that after the Spaniards
had gone away they would come from the
ground as fresh as a toad from a hole where
it had slept for twenty years. Nearly
every one of .them is in a.. sitting posture,
his head between his hands, and the knees
drawn up under the' chin, and the expres
sion.
of the skeleton face one of horror,
strangulation, smothering and despair . alto
gether. There are women, too, the wives
of the Lidos, smothered'' alive in the same
way,. and dying in the same belief. Some
of theskeleton women clutch skeletonts..
bier, and it is a singular fact in connection
with these mummies,that the long black hair
of the women streams from the unsightly
skulls in perfect preservation. •
Tau Cretan, a little paper published in
Boston in the interest of the revolutionists
of Crete, is anxious to have this country go
to war with Turkey, "to vindicate the na
tional honor and the national flag, thrice
insulted and violated" by the Turks. The
proposition is very fine. But another party
desires us to send over our fleet to 'support '
the Spanish Republicans, and fight all Eu
rope in their behalf. This proposition . is
also very fine. But another party desires
us to assist the struggling patriots of Cuba,
and send them men, money, ships and guns
to achieve their independence. This, too,
is very fine. But another party desires us
to assist the Republicans of Ireland, and
give a lesson to the 'English - tyrant. This,
of course, is very fine.- There is no doubt
we could whip all creation aria the rest of
mankind; but, after whipping them,—what?
