FitiLADBi.Ftm, Jon. 82, 1807.
Tlio old fashioned winters, to frequently
talked of, litre been futlf realized la the one
we now enjoy. Tlie weather lias been (H
cieotlv cold to satisfy all, even the ice dea
lers, who l.ave never reaped a more plenti
ful crop. Snow, also, without which winter
Is really desolate at well as unprofitable, has
been not only plentiful but tntirtly too
abundant for tho railroads. In the city the
streets are la a bad condition. The use of
'alt by tho railroad companies is much
complained of, and renders the roads almost
impassible) f r tbosa nu foot, besides its use
la looked vpon as detrimental to health.
Tho people complain and the newsjjnper
denounce tb.9 practise, but tho railroad
men have proved themselves strongest in
tho councils, by a majority of one, and so
the streets were again salted and now look
as if covered with ashes.
Since tho inauguration and election of
V. 5. Senator, politicul matters havo been
comparatively quiet. It is a singular fact
' that the election of Gen. Cameron is ac
knowledged to be more satisfactory than
Would have been the election of any of the
other candidates. Kotwithstandiog his ac
knowlcdgcd radical Republicanism, he is
much more acceptable to tho leading men of
the democratic party, from tlio Gubemato
rial candidate down, than either of the other
Benstorial candidates.
I met to-day, at the Eingham House, lion
Ilicstcr Clyaier, who, with some other gen
tlemen, were assembled for the purpose of
organizing n company to construct a new
railroad, from near Heading, to run through
Chester county and direct to Wilmington
Delaware. TLo new road, Mr. Clymer says
will bo bi.'.lt without dehiy, and will open
another outlet for the Schuylkill coal. Mr,
Clymcr, who looks much better than when
we last saw him. durins his Into arduous
campaign, has many personal friends in the
Republican rani;?, who esteem him as a geu
ticman and aro always ready to greet him as
such.
EiiUness in tho city is very much de
pressed, and the complaint of unusually dull
times is commenced. Laborers and me
chanics find it difficult to get employment,
yet many of tho necessaries of life continue
at war prices. These things cannot last
long. Until the standard of prices it: regu
lated by labor end its products, there must
be continued fluctuation.
ELECTION OV U. B. SSIT ATOR-SPMOH
OF OEIf. OAldBKOIT.
The electron "of United States Senator
took place at IUrrisburg On Tuesday of last
week, and fie-n. Biraon Cameron, the choice
of tho Republican caututof tk week pre
vious, was elected by a vote of 19 to 10 fr
Cowan, in the Senate, aw? C2 to 87 in the
House.
During the evening a puhlio gathering
was held at the Lochiel Hotel, at which
speeches were made by Attorney General
Brewster, Senators Lowry and Landnn, and
Gen. Cameron, and it affords us pleasure to
note, that upon the questions agitating the
public miud, Gen. Cameron made duclara.
tions which must be acceptable to every true
Republican. In the course of his remarks
Oen. Cameron said :
Your creetinir Is very kind and cordial,
and 1 lliar.k you for it. I thank Cod mat
in spite of tliu sluntlers my enemies have
heaped on me for twenty years, my ftllow
ciiizer., who have seen my life from day
to clay, have alwuys stood oy mj s.ue nu
helped to repel them. This last struggle
of my political lifu has ended in victory.
I deserved this as an answer to vindicate
my honesty to my children and my f riends.
I now propose to put theso slanders behind
me, and to forget alike the liars who con
cocted them and tho fact that good men,
in some cases, by the repetition of them,
were induced to believe and repeat them
Ot the eighty-two Republican members of
the Legislature, my Menus assure me that
sixty-three of them preferred me to any
other candidate, and would have voted lor
mo rather than have witnessed my defeat.
The character of my supporters is as grati
fying to me as their numbers. Any one
who knows anything of our politics, who
will rend tho list of those who voted for
mc, will find names as pure and honorable
as that of the purest Christian moralists
among my rivals, and quite as unliko to
descend to any corrupt proposal. Just there
I leuve the whole matter, putting nil party
feuds, and animosities, and prejudices to
gether, under my feet, and I go forward to
the honorable duty to which my native
State hns called me for the third time.
Six years ago I thought that slavery was
iho strength of tho rebellion and ought to
be destroyed without delay. 1 w ished also
to arm ali tho black men who would volun
teer. Of course, I thought that clothing a
black man in the Americun uniform t'.ulh
ed him also with the rights of an Ameri
can citizen ; and I am always sorry to sec a
bluLk soldier and then retlect that even
Pennsylvania denies him to ballot the
only weapon whereby he can protect him
self. 1 hope to live to seo the word 'white'
stricken from our own Constitution, and
tho spirit of tho caste, based upon color,
utterly destroyed.
The South, however, is more controlled
by social influence than by political princi
ples. If vou are wise and firm you may
possibly educate the rising generation with
blacks amounting to tome four millions, and
they are, as parties now stand, a unit with
the party which fonght out their emancipa

notions of tho C'orc'.'tulions, wnivlt must

the demands oi uiu great revolution wuiuu
is still in full blast and which must run its
course.
This Copperhead hue and cry of another
civil war is, then, nothing but a raw head
bloody bones a horrible Chinese dragon, a
mere scarecrow, intended to frighten Cou
ccss from this impeachment. Tho Copper
heads care nothing for Andrew Johnson ex
cept as an instrument to bo used for their
purposes a cat's paw to rake the chestnuts
from the fire. They, with Mr. Johnson's
continuance In office to the end of bis term,
think, like Micawber, that "something may
turn up,'' that the dead lock between Con
gress and the Executive, on Southern recon
struction, in the interval to March 4, 1800,
may, perhaps, be broken by the Supreme
Court in favor of the Administration and
the rebel States just as they stand, and the
Northern Democracy of tlie Chicago plat
form, Urns compilling Congress to readmit
the excluded States on tlicir own terms into
both Ilonses uud into the Presidential elec
tion of 1S08. Mr. Johnson is to provide
these roasted French chestnuts, and the
Northern peace Democracy in war and war
Dcmocracv in pcuco are to eat them with
their old Southern masters. Tho Union is
to be as it whs under Buchanan; tho doctrine
of State rights is to bo applied in repudia
tion of the war debt of tho United States as
an equivalent for tho repudiation of tho
debt of the late so-called confederate Slates;
the war for tho Union is la bo considered a
blunder, and things am to be as they were,
sluxcry and all, as each of the States for it
self may elect.
This, so far ns wo can comprehend it, is
the programme which tho Northern Copper
heads expect from Mr. Johnson, if permitted
to remain undisturbed to the end of his reg
ular term. lie will then be ot liberty to re
tire and Compaq notes with Millard Pill

Constitution gives to one branch of Congress

From a report made by the Secretary of
the American Iron and Steel Association, we
condenso the following interesting facts i
After recapitulating at length the opera
tions of tho association in regard to its ac
tion upon tue tariff and revenue questions
during the past year, the secretary took up
the subject of the amount of internal revenue
derived from the manufacture of iron and
steel during tho fiscal year ending June 30,
1SU0. During this period fl201,250 UU
was paid iuto the Treasury bv the manu
facturers of iron, and 020.873 87 by the
manufacturers of steel, making a total paid
bythcee two interests of 18,718.133 80
and amount exceeding by over 14,000,000
the income from the sme source during the
previous year. The same proportions of
this amount paid by tho more prominent
pistes was as niiiowr,
Pennsylvania, 83 per cent; New York,
17: Massachusetts, 13: Ohio, 8 : Connect!
cut, 7; New Jersey, 6; Illinois, 2 ; Rhode
Island, 3.
Tue total amount of iron imported during
the last fiscal vesr was 259,230 gross tons
against 103,468 tons imported during the
previous year. The importations ot tue
principal articles on tho list are as follows :
Merchant bar, 54,004 tons : rails, 63,513 tons;
sheet iron, all kinds, 10,444 tons; band,
hoop, and scroll, 7,076 tons; pig iron, 100,'
001 tons.
The total declared value of iron and manu
fnetures of iron imported during the last (is
cal year was f 11,279, 825 against $8,684,235
miring i lie previous year.
The Importations of steel and mnnufnc
tures of steel in tho same time exhibit a
slill greater increase, ns will bo seen by the
following statcmant:
Total of steel imported in 1805, 9,953
tons; total imported in 1800, 17,034; in
crease in 1SUU, 7.U7D.
The following statement exhibits the auan
tity of tho principal kinds of iron and steel
manufactured in the country during the
year ending June 80, 18G0 : Pig, in tons of
2,000 pounds, 930,050 tons; rails, 889,704
tons ; bars, rods, &c, 207,820 tons ; band
hoop, and sheet, 142,820 tons ; plate, 57,
771 tons ;cut nails and spikes, 130,838 tons:
castings, all kinds. 670,953 tons ; stoves, and
lioilow-ware, 82, tilts tons.
The secretary then gave a very excellent
review of the iron trade abroad (luring th
past year, showing the effects upon th
trade of tho recent great financial revulsion
in England. Altogether tho report was of
great interest und we regret that we aro not
able to giviu it in full.

Of Andrew Johnson, I said long ngo, that
he was a traitor to his party, aud an ene
my of his country, and a bud man. He has
done many bad things, but nothing worse
than offering the offices of the country to
those few unprincipled men who agreed to
desert nud betray the great Republican or
ganization for his patronage. Ho joined
tue l)"niocratic party long ago. He has a
right to give them tho offices, but he has
no right to uispose of them at auction, to
weak-kneed Republicans. Tiie pauper la

to protect our manufactories from ruin and
their workmen from being th rown out of
employment, or their wages reduced to tlio
starvation point, for I hold that the true
welfare of any nation depeudj on the wel

Gentlemen, I trust that this is my last
political struggle. I hftc nothing more to

the bitterness, the ui'.jtictirlab'e bitterness,

I shall try to act as a representative of all
the Ridieul Republicans of Pennsylvania,
without regard to past differences or dis

nobly, but I will try to forgitpr.d forgive
the unjust calumnies and the political oppo

The Phesidknt's Impeachment. A Con-
STlTL'TIONAUI.U AND PEACEABLE REMEDY.
Tho Copperhead journals have started the.
"uue and cry" ot another civil war in tlie
event of the impeachment and removal of
President Johnson. One of these organs of
the peace party of tho war and the war
purty of the peace suys that "the radicals
uro strenuously bent on impeachment, and
the result can bo nothing less than ahklcous
civil war, in which men will be eager to cut
the throats of their nearest neighbors." And,
ns we aro further told, it will not bo a civil
war of sections, like that which has so hup
pi!y ended, but it w ill be a civil war iu tho
Northern States between tho peace party
and the war party of the late courlict. Rut
how is this new civil war to be inaugurated?
Broad hints have been thrown nut from
various quarters that the President himself
will take the initiative, iu the event of his
removal oi suspension by the high Court of
the Semite, and upon tho pl a Uiut neither
house of Congress, with ten Slates excluded
from any repiesentation therein, it constitu
tionally qualified to impeach or to try him.
1 ken, us we understand tlie counsels and
prophecies of these Southern rebel and
Northern copperhead Cassandras, the Presi
dent is to try a coup a etut like Uiut of Presi
dent Louis Napoleon against the National
Assembly of tho lust French republic ; -and
bo is to call the army and the States to the
rescue, when, it is expected, the rebel States
w;.l spring again to their arma, together,
this time, with all the Nuithern peace party
of the late war.
Now if any tane man believet that An
drew Johnson entertaius any such absurd
notions of resistance to the authority of
Congress, we would ask him what chauce it
there of any success in the attempt at thit
suggested eovp d'etat f General Grant and
bit army of a million soldiers would un
questionably respond to a call from Con
