TUB
TIES OF TBI! GAZETTE-
The editor pf the wW, last wwfc, In
commenting on the illustrations of the Dew
orrnt, intending to represent ourselves
among other Hcpublicans, could not resist
the opportunity that enabled him to give us
a back-handed compliment by enlarging on
what the Democrat and Stliru-Orott Tim
had to lay of us, but we fear in a spirit
much less manly and candid. Wo never re
ceived.and certainly never expected anything
complimentary from our neighbor, but while
he had- something clever to say of all the
others referred to, the smallest modicum of
magnanimity, if ho ever was conscious of
such a virtue, should have shieMed us from
his Parthian airows, however harmless thsy
were, on such an occasion.
No suo is more expert in beating about
the bush than the editor of the Oaictte, and
to "hint a fault or hesitate dislike," is not
applicable alone to the hero of Pope. Those
who know us will testify that, in on col
umns, we never indulged in personal at
tacks, covertly or otherwise, except in self
defence. We envy no one, not even our
neighbor the editor of the Gazette, and we
trust "our enlargement," a he terms it, will
Cod no parallel in the fable of "the frog
and the ox," personally or pecuniarily.
We did not deem ii necessary to make an
apology, because we did not reach home in
time to vote, though we traveled one night
to do so, for the reason that it is personal
right, the exercitie of which no one has a
right to question. But since the editor of
the Qaiette has seen proper to refer to the
matter, we do not hesitate to say, that we
think it decidedly less reprehensible not to
vote at all than to vote on the wrong side,
or even to labor under the suspicion of hav
ing dono so, a suspicion so general that, in
effect, it is almost equivalent to a fact.
The disclaimer that he asks no favors
(patronage) from Mr. Leisecring, and that
he would declino them if offered, is putting
it on rather thick, and is, to use bis own
language "too absurd to take hold of peo
ple who have the slightest knowledge of
human nature." If the editor of the Ameri
can has "never done any serious damage to
any political party," be has at least been
shrewd enough not to injure his own, which
is, perhaps, more than can be truly said of
the Gazette, which, by its erratic course, has
been charged with having damaged all tho
various parties to which it has belonged.
The Pennsylvania Election. Accord
ing to the returns received by tho Secretary
of State at Ilarrisburg, the result of the re
cent election in Pennsylvania is officially re
ported to be that for Supreme Judge, Geo.
Sharswood, Democrat, received 207,748
votes, and Henry W. Williams, Republican,
266,824 votes, a Democratic majority of 022.
Last year the Republican vote was 307,274,
and the Democratic vote 290,096, a Republi
can majority of 17,178. Comparing this year
with last, the total vote has fallen off 62,520,
of which 80,450 are on the Republican side,
and 22,070 on the' Democratic side. This
iit?. . ...
isuiDg on is largest in counties that go
strongly for one or the other party, such as
Allegheny, Lancaster, Berks, Monroe, Lu
crne and others, but there is also a mode
rate falling off noticed in all parts of the
State. Except there is a Governor or mem
bers of Congress, involving some decided
issue either National or State, it seems the
vote will not come out. While we heartily
deprecate this apathy we cannot see bow it
ib to be remedied. If even the county of
Allegheny, in which Judge Williams resides,
had thrown as heavy a vote for the Repub
lican candidate for Supreme Judge, this
year, as it did for Gen. Geary, last year,
Williams would have had a majority of 055.
Er"SouTHEBN Sentiment. --The unfor
tunate results of our late elections are be
ginning to show in the South. The evi
dence docs not come from one State or sec
tion, but from all, and is marked in a higher
. spirit among the late rebels, and a greater
determination to carry their own measures
in their own way. And these measures arc,
all of them, naturally hostile to tbe end
which loyal men desire to see attained, and
to those political results which we consider
essential to the pacification' of the South,
and quiet and increased business over the
whole country. In Louisiana the effect has
been as patent as anywhere. There all that
has been gained is threatened with loss. In
Florida and Arkansas, and Alabama and
Texas, we hear that those who were quiet
are agitated by hopes of a revulsion, which
will rustore them to power, and so encour
aged, are unwilling to concede anything to
the necessities of the period. The same is
true of Virginia. The late rebels have not
; failed to construe tho results here as was
prophesied. The fact deserves to bo noticed,
us a proper attention may yet save us from
all ol the stormy conseueuces which, threa
ten the futuro. .
E3?S0UTIIERN AriOUMKNT. It is curiuua
to ace how tbe reasoning of political writers
more anxious to establUa some particular
croicuet oi tueir own than to get at tho
truth often comes round in a circle. The
Charleston Mercury is very severe on the
people of the North for disregarding the
Constitution. "There can be no stability
iu the Government of any country," it says,
"with every citizen possessing the right to
resist it laie whenever they deem it expe-
uiuut io uo so." i uai is precisely what we
insisted on during the rebellion. The great
object of the war was to prevent "resistance
to tbe law," and to establish tbe Coustitu
lion as tbe supreme law of the land. The
work, moreover, was pretty thoroughly
done.
Most of the workmen employed at the
Auuuiam national cemetery have been dis

Hon. TiAncm Jokvmx. We consider it 1
due to this gentleman to lav that our defeat
in Pennsylvania was brought about by causes-
wholly beyond, his control. We can
testify, from personal knowledge, to the
lad tnat, as Chairman of tbe ltepuniican
Stale Committee, he heartiiv devoted him
self to the work, eivlnir bis entire time for
six weeks previous to the election, and do
ing hi htmost to secure a tboroujrk- and effi
cient party organization hi the various
counties. The ablo and stirring addresses
from hi pen. issued during lue contest, em
bodied unanswerable areumonta in support
of the Beptrblicaa aandidato for Supreme
Judge, and furnished a basis of action
wuicn, U generally aaoptca, wouiu udti
certainly led to victory. Ilenee, whiU we
1rid1 reerct the failure of our lleptsblican
friends to achieve the anticipated triumph,
wa do not hesitate to award vol. Jordan
treat credit for his eealous, patriotic, self-
sacrificing efforts in behalf of our party.

-A. widow, Mrs. Blankenship, living near
Bowling Orecn, Ky., went to a run to wash,
taking with her her entire family, two little
sons and a baby daughter, followed by their
dog. The dog ran off a short distance into
tbe woods, and began barking furiously. It
wits thought he had treed some game, and
with the mother's consent, tho little fellows
went to secure it. The game proved to be a
large rattlesnake. They were too small to
know the nature of the creature, and de
lighted by its glittering coils, the eldest ran
to catch the prize, saving, "I'll get him
brother." The venomous reptile darted,
and struck its venomous fangs again and
again into the flesh of tbe glowing, eager
child, and wound its terrible folds about
him. Tbe younger brother ran to his res
cue, and was also repeatedly bitten. Their
screams brought the mother. When she
arrived the eldest boy was dead, and tho
younger one lived but long enough to tell
wnat nad nappencd. J uo snake liad crawl
ed off, and alone in the woods, with the
blackened and swollen corpses of her two
darlings, the mother, for a time, forgot her
iniant down by the run. licturmng to ue
she found the corpse of her baby girl in tlu
wash tub. She had toddled to it and fallen
in bead foremost. Who found her, or how
she found assistance to bring to her uesolnte
all that was left of her children is told, but
tbe Bowling Green Democrat, which gives
the account, says that the poor mother is
not quite bereft of reuson, and that the
event has created a profound sympathy in
the wnolo community.

TflK PRESIDENT VS. CONGRESS.
It is understood that President JohnBon
pretends to be exceedingly annoyed at the
publication in the Boston 1'ont. of the sub
stance of a conversation held between him
and its correspondent, in which he (tbe Pre
sident) avowed his determination to resist
with all the means in Ins power, in caso
Congress should attempt to suspend him
before Impeachment. Ihnre is no douDt
that Mr. Johnson did use this language, and
desired to have it published in order that
the country might understand his true posi
tion. It appears now, however, that he is a
littlo alarmed at the strong language cm
ployed, and is disposed to back down or
disavow it entirely.
