.H.EiTER VAUGHAN', whose trial and
death-sentence for the :murder of her
child, occupied the publicattention about
a year ago and at intervals since, has
• • -.• pardoned. Immediately 'after she was
sentenced, It will be remembered, that
many people began, and have since con
tinued, to make eittsordinary efforts to
effect her release, and, as it seems, have
at length accomplished that object, As
the Constitution. of Pennsylvania now
stands, the Governor had but the two
horns of the dilemma to choose between,
or else, doing nothing, to retain the con
vict in - ': . confinement under a delayed
death-warrant. Hester Vaughan, after
she received the sentence of death, must
either have been hunt, or left a life-pri
soner, daily liable to etecution, or, as Is
now the case, have gone wholly free.
Whatever may have been the extenuating
circumstances, or the developments after
the trial, the Governor had and has no
power to commute the death-penalty
when it has once been pronounced. Such
being the case, the Executive is nieces-,
sarily placed in a position of great deli
cacy, for the instances are many where,
after conviction, the guilt, though uncle
niable, has been discovered to be not so
great as to demand life in compensation.
An amendment to the State Constitution
seems to be the only legal means of em
powering the Governor to act justly in
such cases by substituting a lower pun
ishment therefor.
THE NEW DEMOCRACY.
To no small part of the people of the
South, their reconstruction will be made
more palatable by the fact that impartial
suffrage, under the Fifteenth Article, may
thus be imposed upon the North. That
Article will disband the last llitgering
trace of theliorthern Democratic organi
zation, and musterit the park? forever out
of existence in these States: Its head
quarters are to be at once transferred to
the late rebel States, and the rag-tag and
bob-tails of the once proud and formida
ble Democracy of the North will be scat
tered to the winds, and beard of no more.
Changing thus its local habitation, the
Democratic party will forswear one
of its oldest principles ; imme
morially, a white man's party, it is
hereafter to be affectionately devoted to
the colored race, among which is to be its
new field of labor, and by the aid of which
all of its future victories must be won.
Thus, the lath article will work such a
transformation of the political morals of
the regenerated party, that the mere
change of the leopard's spots would be
. nothing to it. We shall then scarcely be
able to recognize the Democracy, in its
character of a newly-born philanthropy;
indeed, we doubt if the party will really
know itself. Their present leaders at the
North will do irel, about these days; to
be looking sharply to the party's latter
end: •

ARE XVTH AtiTICLEI, _
Without lowa, whose Legislature had
not yet acted at all, and Indiana, whose
action is worth but little more, the XVth
Article counts thus ihr twenty-one States
IL
for .its nttitication., Rh 1 e Island and
Ne w Hampshire, within x weeks, - will
make twenly-three. As i ill session of
the Vermont Legislature will furnish the
twenty-fourth, if desirable, Virginia,
Texas and Mississippi, if organized as
States this Summer, will duke the num
ber twenty-sem—or one less than the
requisite three-fourths. That one can be
supplied by $ special session of the lowa
Legislature, and in no other .way. It Is
certainly desirable that the great principle
of Impartial suffrage should be inaugu
rated this year, but it will not' be, in any
of the States which bold general elections
in the Autumn, without Vermont or. lowa
shall come up to their duty at the earliest
practical moment. The new doctrine
needs both of those States, for we see not
the remotest likelihood of any Federal
acceptance of the recent action of Indiana.
Our friends can thus judge of the avail
ability, next October, of a class of votes
which, when duly legalized, will be alto
gether in '
accord with the Republican
party. We must carry the three States
to be reconstructed, and must have
special meetings of the two Legislatures.
Without these, ,we need count upon no
more strength, at the 'October polls in
Ohio and Pennsylvanls, than we have
regularly held heretofore. It is well to
look the facts in , the face, especially for
the politicians of these two States, who
are now laying out the year's work for
the party. All should remember that
much preliminary work is yet to be done.
tithe three Southern States come in, it will
be before September, and must be with
their ratifications of the Article. 'There
will be no trouble then in ketting the
special sessions above allude 4 t . to, and a
speedy proclamation of the ratified Article
from the' Federal authorities. We are
confident that Virg,inia,teias and Missis
sippi will be thus reconstructed, but
whether their action, with that of lowa
and.Vermoct, can be secured before Oct
ober, is not wholly clear. Only the Vir
ginia election for July is yet ordered;
those for the two other States shoUld not
be too long deferred.
ARE WE READYTO PAY THEM!
The new American Minister goes to .
England with instructions, in substance,
to make known to that Government the
reasons for which we have recently re•
Jetted the proposed treaty for the settle
ment of the Alabama claims, and, fur
ther, to advise the English Cabinet that
any new overtures for an adjustment of
that question must come from them, and
not from ,is. And there, it is said, Mr.
Mammy' s instructions stop. For the rest,
he is to await the possible events. This is
very well, since it is not only in conso
nance with the preponderating American
opinion, but leaves the affair hr - the most
satisfactory posture for English sentiment.
We ask nothing, from a people who are at
present disposed to concede to us just
that and no more. We make no propo
sitions, when it is evident that no propo
sitions, which could be for one moment
entertained, are likely to be presented on
either side. Events hive so completely
shut the door upon any possibility of a
speedy settlement of the, controversy;
that it is not worth the while of either
party to challenge fresh irritations by new
and bootless attempts at a negotiation for
which neither party ie just now in a
proper frame of mind. We have asked
what England will never4rant; sheoffers
us what we can. never accept. The
sooner then that the whole business shall
be shelved, the better for the peaceof two
nations. Shelved, it will not be forgotten
at once; it leaves a rankling inflammation
which only time, and its various 'issues,
can wholly assuage.
The President, the Senate and the
country have apparently agreed upon the
correct line Of policy toward England,
and it has been taken accordingly. It
only remains to settle another quesdon
among ourselves. Are we ready to pay
the thirteen millions of money, represent
ing the Alabama claims of our citizens so
far as ascertained, out of the Federal
Treasury t Our despoilated dtizeas can
make no demand for this money upon a
foieign government. Their-reclamations
must be, end legally matte, wholly
upon the government which enjoys their
allegiance and owes to them the fullest
measure of its prOteotion of life and prop

The Cherokee Indians have so 'farad

life which is always associated with all of
the aberiginal tribes of North America ;
they have a simple and regularly organiz

early hi ry of all the various peoples of
the world shows that commencing as wan- -
dering hunters and warriors, they have
have gradually changed these employ
ments for agriculture and afterwards=
never before—learned manufactures, the
arts and the sciences. Under the super
vision of our government, many of those
Indian tribes which were formerly the
most savagely barbarious, have been
elevated to the agricultural stage of civili
zation, and the Cheerokees afford the best
evidence of the success of en elevating
policy.
The expenses necessarily incurred by
ourtwn Uovernment in' thus-promoting
the natural course of enlightenment
among the savages aro very great In
order to lessen ,these, and at the same
time to strengthen these Indiap i govern
ments, the various tribes are gradually
being induced to consolidate. Recently
the Delaware nation, numbering nearly
two thousand souls, has been incorpora
ted with the Cherokees, transferring their
trust-funds to the invested funds of the
latter for the pprpose of paying for a
land-allotment for each Delaware, who
thus becomes a settled Cherokee farmer.
The Shawnees, too, the especial terror
of the white pioneers on this border eighty
years ago, arenow negotiating with the
Cherokees for a similar consolidation.
' It is the intention of the Indian Bureau
to encourage, as midi as possible, the
consolidation of the various tribes in this
way, the ' by saving much trouble and
expense. When we reflect! that it is but

' Dividing Man Against . Himself.
The Woman's Suffrage Association of
New York, have split into two parties.
On Saturday evening a new society was
organized, called the National 'Woman's
Suffrage Association. The object of this
move is made for the purpose of ridding
the suffrage movement of lunatics and
brawlers. Some shrewd politicians were
called In to advise with the women on
Saturday, evening. They favored the
total exclusion of men, even from mem
bership in. the new soelety, urging that
they would not be aids, but obstacles
rather, to its smooth working and practi
cal efficiency. The matter was settled,
and the affair is to be entirely under the
control of women.
But the ladies 'seem to forget that it
takes both the male and the femaleto con
stitute amen. Saysthe Good Book: "In
the day that God created man, in the like
ness of God made he him; male and fe
male created he theta and called their
name Adam (a man) in the day when
they were created." Upon which a Bos
ton clergyman comments as follows:
"The distinctive masculine characteristics
are those in which the understanding
takes" the lead; and the distinctive femi
nine ~ characteristics are those in which
will or affection takes the lead. Man is
more fresquently governed by his judg
ment and reason, woman by her feelings
and 'perceptions. Not, indeed, that
intellecthelongs , to the male sex ' and all
affection to the female. But the two
classes of faculties comprised under these
hea4s respectively, predombsate in them.
When men and women come together in
a good and orderly way, they supply,
each to the other, just what is wanted.

A Word for the Sparrows.
The Journal of Commerce has a corres
pondent whO adds his testimony to the
harmlessness of the sparrows in public
parks. He says :
In four of our city parks they have an
nihilated the measuring -Worm, after many
years of ezperimentseurd of unsufferable
annoyance to ladies and children, especi
ally. In every park and street where
they were properly provided for they di
minished the effect of the mosquito lava-
Blom yiry perceptibly. They afford con=
stant and durable interest and amusement
to our families, and particularly to our
children, and lessen the rigors of winter
and'storms by their Cheerful notes and
antics and visits to our windows, even
when the thermometer Is near zero, aud
it softens our natures to care for these
little strangers. In a walk from Four
teenth to Forty-eighth street, to-day, I
was seldom out of the sound of their
music. Baron von Tschudi, the eraninent
Swiss naturalist, says that witbodt birds
successful agriculture is impossible, as
they annihilate' in a few months a greater
number of destructive Insects than man
could in years. He classes among the
most useful the swallow, wren, robin and
sparrow, and says that a robin killed 800
files in an hour, and a pair of sparrows
curled 300 worms or caterpillars to their
nest in a day. In three years' observa
tion daily I have not seen them touch any
of our small fruits, nor the buds of fruit

and their union will be the first step to
wards uniting under one communion
head all the various divisions of Presby

vantageoue to the cause of Christianity.
The trifling differences bet Ween them have
beau the cause of bitter antagonism, that
have been prejudicial to the - interests of

It is e pected the road will be completed
to this city by October neat.
THE REASON l'1111(
Dr. Keyser's Blood Searcher is the best. It Is Li
computed that a man's system undergoes three •
Dates a year, that is every four months, a reifies'
and thorough change, that Is, that at the end , of
that time nothing remains in the system of the
material of which It was composed before that
time. The eliminating organs carry out the
woyn.out and used-up material. and new matter •
Is made to take !Laplace and carryon tne Work
ings of the human organism. Tfte cost of four
months treatment in thls way would not at the
outside be more than ten dollars, and frequenUy
the functions of life have an activity and vigor
marted mancient, to renew them by the use of
on bottle, costirg only one dollar. Ro organ of
the body but will be benefited by such a process.
Th liver, - the stomach, the kidneys, the akin,
\!.
theilongs, are all. as it were, made' over again
by the Impetus given to the stomach and diger
time system—old and prostrated people whose
systems had begun to languish and decay. have
been restored by DR. KEYS.ER'S BLOOD
SEARCHER to youthful health and vigor.
Especially is this ' medicine suitable at this
season of the year, when the dormant
powers of life,..,lite all the rest oftare are
emerging from the chilling and to Id state
usual to the cold land wintry mo nth I. We
know very well that all advertised medicines are
apt to be regarded as useless and nugatory, but
with DR. KEYSER'S BLOOD SEARCHER we
feel perfectly secure in the promise that It must
do good. Country merchants and those who sup
plyl others with needful things for their wants
cannot confer a greater service than to keep a
feca l bottles of ibis valuable medicine on their
shelves to supply thbtr wants. Dr. Keyser will
take back every half dozen that remains unsold.
It at the same time ' affords the merchant a
good profit, and to those who need it, it is cif
more value than silver angold, for what can be
of more value to man than medicine which car
t health and life to the ering invalid?
l ir
earnestly entreat all who read thisto try
one the of Dr. Keyser's Blood Searcher if they
nee
.such a medicine, and we will guarantee ret
ies tion ! In order, however, not to be disap
pobs d, let them buy none but that which has Dr
Kevser's name over the cork and blown In the
bottle, and in that way the Doctor will hold him
self responsible fur its results when the directions
are closely followed.

ET US PROTECT OURSELVES.
The physical structure of the strongest human
being is vulnerable everywhere. Our bodien are
endowed by nature With a iertain negative pow
er, which protects them, to wine extent.from nn
wholesome influences; but this protection M Im
perfeCt, and cannot be sifely relied on in un
healthy, regions, or under circumstances of more
than o rdinary
. danger. Therefore: it is wisdom;
it Is prudence; it Is common ferule to provide
against such contingencies, by taking an nwrt-
Dori IN ADVANCE; in other woreq; ' by Ibrtifiing
theltLtem with HOSTICTIIOI , BI3TOIKA.CH BIT
TIC the most complete protective against at
the oidemic and en emic maladies that hap
been administered in &upcountry. Asa remedy
for Dyspepsia. there C no medicine that Will
compare with it. Whoever suffers the pangs of
indl‘tation, anywhere on the face of the earth
where HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS can
be procured, does so voluntarily; for, as surely
as truth exists, this valuable Toxic and ALTERA
TIVE would restore his disordered stomach to a
healthy cendition. To the nervous it Is also es
pecially recommended. and In cases of confirmed
constipation it also affords speedy sad permanent
relief. In all cases of fever and ague the BIT
TERS Is more potent than any amount of quinine.
while the most dangerous cases of bilious fever
yield to Ha wonderful properties. Those who
have tried the medicine will never use another.
for any of the aliments which the HOSTETTER
BIT PERS professes to subdue. To those who
have not made the experiment we cordially re
commend an early application to the BITTER I
whenever they are stricgen by of the el
gestive organs. •
