Sinclair, their candidate for Governor, is an excellent standard-bearer, and showed his popularity in the canviss last year by reduc ing the Radical majority in 1865 of 6,127 to 4,656, and that under very discouraging cir cumstances.

IMPEACHMENT. —The majority of the Judiciary Committee have reported in fa vor of impeaching tbe President of the United States, one member of the Com mittee having gone over to the impeachcrs since the last adjournment of Congress It is not known that the President has done anything—or been guilty of any high crimes or misdemeanors, since the adjourn ment, or in fact at any other time, which should have changed the mind of any rea sonable person on that committee, or that will warrant so extraordinary measures as is being inaugurated by this Smelling Com mittee of the Rump .Congress. So says the minority report. The American Bastile Prisoners. UNION PACIFIC HOTEL, New Yoik, Oct. 30, 1867, J TO THE EDITOK OF TUB WORLD. SIB:—I have read with great pleasure your DOtice of the proposed convention of " Prisoners of State," in your columns of yesterday, under title " The Bastile Busi ness*" You snppose that the convention will entertain "the purpose of concocting some measure of redress, and drawing np a catalogue of' loyal' outrages to be pub lished in f„rm of solemn manifesto to the world." Yon are quite right as far as your jecture has led you. As a victim of the late despotism, and since the suggestion touching the convention originated with myself, I entreat a small space that I may i intimate briefly what are some of the pur -1 poses which, in my judgment, should en gage the earnest attention of all those who have suffered outrage at the behest of ar bitrary power. Redress , in the ordinary acceptation, very few, if any of us, seek for or expect. We have borne long enough j the load of obloquy which the myrmidons , of a most despotic power have heaped up on us, while we were languishing in filthy and disgusting casemates and could not be heard one word in our defence against any kind of accusation which it suited the pur poses of our enemies to make. Some of us have only recently learned who our ac j cusers were, and what were their motives ; and what their rewords. Some of as are regarded with more or less suspicion as though we have been expected to speak long since and say that " We are innocent." Some of us are free to say, "We did that j whereof we are accused, but in that we did no wrong , but, on the contrary, we did that ; which every good citizen should do." All ' of us are willing to declare the reasons for 1 our actions which our consciences will ap prove, and then to accept the judgment of bor.est men, whether we have merited onr j sufferings. All of us have opinion t in re | gard to the momentous questions of the i hour, which, we think, have been well ap proved by late experience in the result of the indulgence of usurpation. We would declare those opinions and ask our fellow citizens to consider them well. All of us have loved our several States, and our whole country —its institutions, and espe cially, its once grand and beautiful nation alism—and now, more than ever„if it were i possible, when her supreme peril comes i nearer and nearer by each passing day, we love our country, and would band together to save it, though the old Bastile gates should open to us again. We would hold up to the scorn of indig nant humanity certain individuals who have : since the accession of the late Abraham Lincoln, through their usurpation, wielded agaiwst the defenceless the most terrible energies of arbitrary, absolute power, and ! would consign them to the ir.famy they have earned. We would not be moved by any spirit of revenge or malice, but will ever respect the behests of justice, and if we shall bring to light some dark and dam i ning deeds of the oppressors of a confiding ] people—some atrocities, the announcement | of which will sufluse every manly cheek | with tbe blush of shame, men will learn that even in our day men in high places are capable of crimes which find no paral | lei ID the black records of infamy ! We ; have the jrroofs! Il we shall make plain to the American people what are the pur poses of the regnant despotism of to-day. which we propose to do, we shall do our country some good service at last. In fine, ! we ask justice, and shall pursue justice un til we shall stand in the opinions ol honest ; men acquitted of all wrong, and more than , that, justified in that we have done and de sired (or our couutry in her first great j peril. P. C. WRIGHT, NEGRO OUTRAGES—The papers from all parts of the country are full oi the most revolting outrages upon women and chil dren by negroes. A brutal, sensual race, and within the first year of the agitation of the question of their right to suffrage, we find them rioting in licentious violence.— We fear that the white people will become so incensed, if these abominable crimes are much more increased, that they will excite a most terrible vengeance on such atrocity. The pronounced friends of this people must bend their highest energies to correct these practices, and so train them that their li centiousness 6ball be repressed—not left to run r. t. Shall the Southern Negroes Rule North ern White Men P If the negroes are admitted to the suf frage in the Southern States the State Governments will be as completely under their control as if they formed the whole population. Acting with the Republican party, thy will in every State forin its majority ; they can dictate all its meas ures and its nominations. They can de termine in every instance who shall be Governor and what laws shall be passed by the State Legislature. Nor is this all. They can not only govern those ten States, but can control every federal election and govern the country. The States which they will control, hold the balance "be tween the two great parties, and can turn the scale in favor of whichever the negroes prefer Supposing a Presidential election to be held now, and taking the resnlt of the Ust State elections as the criterion of the strength of parties, the contest would be very close. The following are the Democratic States and the number of their electorial votes • Connecticut 6 New Jersey 7 Cal.fornia 5 New York 33 Kentucky 8 Ohio 21 Maryland 5 j Pennsylvania 26 The number of electoral votes counted in the last Presidential election was 221. Of these 113 is a majority of five ; so that supposing only the same States to vote as in 1864, the Democrats would elect the President without any further gains. We shall doubtless gain Maine, Illinois, Indi ana, and some other Northern States, and onr popular vote, including those who vote with us in the Southern States, will make us a majority of all the adult male inhabitants white and black. And yet it might happen that, after gaining the States named, we should lose the election by the complete control exerted by tbe negroes over the reconstructed States. Those States, including Tennessee, will have 77 electoral votes, and if they are all brought under the control of the negroes, toey may turn the scale and elect the next President. With Maine, Indiana, and Il linois voting with the Democrats, we should be beaten bv a majority of two.— If, besides those States, we can gain Ore gon, we shall still have a majority iu spite of the negro 70te. This survey will explain why the Re pnblicans arc so stiff ar.d obstinate in ad heri n£ to their negro suffrage reconstruc tion scheme. There is no possibility of their carrying tbe Presidential election if they abandon it. If they give up that, tbey are the same as beaten already, even if they kecqrout the excluded States and prevent them from reinforcing the Demo cratic party. The Republicans have lost so much that a mere policy of exclusion cannot save them. They must reorganize those States ui.der negro control, or their party is undone. It is for this reason that they turn a deaf ear to all moderate counsels, to all proffers of compromise, and refuse to give up their reconstruction l scheme notwithstanding its condemnation by the people. The North will therefore be called to decide whether the Southern negroes shall govern the country. The Democratic party must gain enough to overbalance the Republican gains in tbe South ; which can easily be done as soon as the people come to see that the real is sue is whether the white or black race shall rule the country.— World. Negro Tyranny in the South--000 Fami lies Compelled to Desert their Homes and come North. Iliinnicutt and the villains who support him are doing a terrible work among the negro population in Virginia and North Carolina. The negroes are all armed or i arming, and are already beginning to ! threaten the white population and ' coerce ; them into giving up their property. It may be a-matter of indignant surprise to our citizens to know that at least six hun dred white families have been compelled to abandon their homes and tiy for their : lives, within the week last past. About j ha'f a dozen of these families arc in this i city, and are searching for some quiet ■ nook in which they may dwell in peace and safety. Many, if not most of these families, were in straightened circumstan i ces, resulting from the war at home, and j now that they have been expatriated by I the insolence and power of heathen Afri can, they are destitute. But they ask no chaiity. They are determined to fight out their own battle, and look to the peo ple of the North for help and for justice against the brutes who terrorize, oppress, and defraud them. It is believed that a majority of these families w ill make our city a refuge. Can Northern white free men brook these outrages ?— Phil, Herald Will we Suffer it to be Done P The Senate of Pennsylvania will at the meeting of the Legislature in January next, be composed of 19 Radicals and 14 Demo crats, and at the session of 1869, 17 Radi cals and 16 Demofrats, for we will beyond doubt, gain two Senators at the next elec tion, one from Luz ?rne, and another in the Adams and Franklin district. The Radicals understand all this per fectly well, and will throw out the two ! newly elected Senators, M'lntire and Shu- I gart, from the District composed of the connties of Blair, Huntingdon, Mifflin, Ju niata, Centre and Perry, on some pretext or other, unless the Demociats are prepar ed to prevent, such an outrage. Three years ago this same district elected two Democrats, but they were counted out, no toriously by fraudulent soldier votes sub sequently obtained. Only two years ago, Franklin and Ad ams, elected a Democratic Senator, but he was at once thrown out by the Senate, for the reason that alleged deserters had voted for him, and this will most likely be the os tensible reason given for turning out M,ln tire and Shugart. Can such a wrong be repeated with impunity? In 183 Stevens and his party, after the defeat of Governor Ritnrr, openly pro claimed their deteimination to " treat the election as though it never had been held," and unquestionably would have done so, had not thousands of Democrats assem bled at Harisburg at the meeting of the Legislature, inconvenient as it was then to travel, compared to what it now is, and drove the conspirators out of the back win dows of the Capitol. We do not counsel violence, and we earnestly hope there will be no occasion for any, but we do say tbat we bavc had quite enough, and more than enough, of this thing of keeping out and turning out duly elected representatives of the people. Let our friends in the Legislature, and everywhere , say that the day has passed when such wrongs will be tolerated. We say so with emphasis.— Columbian. The Opinion of a Soldier. General SHERMAN'S speech at the reun ion of the officers of the Army of the Tenn essee, in St. Louis, on the 13th instant, contained, after a rehearsal of the achieve ments of that army during the war, an ap peal to the good seme of his countrymen, North and South, which is full of soldierly magnanimity and fervor. If .slavery is held to be the real cause of our civil war, then General SHERMAN, himself boirt of New England parents, "honestly believes that the people of New Englang in common with all the great north who shared in the original cause and enjoyed a large part of the profits resulting from cotton and slave labor, should be charitable and liberal in the final distribution of the natural penal ties." He proceeds: "If children must inherit the sins of their fathers, even in the third and fourth generations, then none of us who trace our origin back to the earlier days of this re public can escape this mathematical and philosophical conclusion ;or in the lan guage of Dr. Draper : "Guilty, then, both of us in the sight of God, let us not vex each other with mutual crimination, but bear our punishment with humility." llow has this punishment been partitioned by the results of the war? We of the north have to mourn the loss of fathers, brothers, sons and friends, and arc "bur dened with a vast national debt binding on us in fact, in law and in honor, never I hope, to be questioned by any honorable man iu America till every cent is paid,— Look to the South, and you who went with me through that land can best say if they, too, havn't beeu fearfully punished. Mourning in every household desolation written in broad characters across the whole face of their country, cities in ashes and fields laid waste, their commerce gone, their system of labor annihilated and de stroyed. Ruin, poverty, and distress every where and now pestilence adding the very cap-fcheaf to their stock of misery ; her proud men begging for pardon and appeal ing for permission to raise food for their children ; her five millions of slaves free, and their value lost to their former mas ters forever. With our population increasing thirty three per cent,-every ten years ; with our national wealth developing in even a great er ratio ; with our frontiers pushing hack in every direction ; with farms and villages and cities rapidly covering our vast na tional domain ; with mines of gohl and silver and iron and coal pouting out wealth faster than ever did the cotton fields of the South, with forty thousand miles of finished railroads, and other thousands iu progress—can any one doubt our present strength, or calculate our future destiny ? If our friends at the South will heartily and cheerfully join with us in this future course, I for one would welcome them back, our equals, but not our superiors, and lend them a helping hand." When men like General Sherman take issue in this wise with the confiscation and destructive policy just reiterated more venomously than ever by Thaddeus Ste vens, we may hope on that the real 'Grand Army of the Republic"—soldiers who fought in the war and do not bluster in time of peace, are in no danger of becom ing Radical enthusiasts. $ NEGRO REBEI I ION. —A negro in Rich mond, Virginia, sav9 he will make the streets of thai cty "run knee deep with blood" ifany white man there dares to deny him the means of supporting himself and fami|v by work. This means that the negro will have employment, at living wages not only in the South, but in the North at the cost of the blood of white men, and the bread that is necessary to keep white men and women, and children from starving. In other words, he will live if he has to kill white men in order to thrust them out of employment* This is the bclligerant watchword of the negro.— Pass it along the line of the white ranks. Pass it from Virginia to Pennsylvania, and on from the remotest East to the re motest West, and let the next election tell who wins in this fight. ITOW DOES IT STRIKE Yoc ?—Seeing that the people of the Northern States, from Conneticut to Kansas, repudiate ne gro suffrage, how, asks the Boston Post does it slrike fair minds, for a Congress in which the North alone is represented, to force negro suffrage and negro suprema, cy upon the ten Southern States which are refused representation ? BRITISH TAXATION — A CONTRAST. —In the better days of the Republic, before Radical legislatiou had fastened its blasting policy upon the country, we used to boast of being the most lightly taxed people in the world. It was a common thing in those days to point to Great Britain as an illustration of the evil effects of onerous taxation. The contrast was one in which our politicians delighted, because it served to show how much superior we were as political economists and legislators to our British ancestors. How is it now, after near seven years of Radical rule? The aggregate wealth of Great Britain within the British Isles is $36,000,000,000 ; that of the United States is now estimated at 140,000,000,(0U. The rate of taxation in Great Britain is ninety cents on the one hundred dollars ; in the United States the rate of taxation by the Federal Government is four hund red cents on the one hundred dollars, or more than four times that of Great Britaiu. Hgr* Ben. Butler wants the Radical par ty to abandon the principles, measures and issues upon which it has been worsted and defeated all around the circle. Greeley won't hear to it. He says defeat rather than dishonor —"stern justice" to the dar ky or nothing. "Stern justice" to the Rump would be a better issue, for it bad ly needs chastisement for its conduct, ——<• - ■■ ■ - ■ - Two women,t he first who have made the attempt, reached the top of Mount Hood this summer.
