Td the Voters Of Lehigh County When you vote for a representative Con peas, don't forget to vote for David Thomas, Esq., of Catasauqua, remember that he is the right man, capable, honest and persevering, that his election will not only be a tribute of respeCito his talent; and energy, but an honor to the. District. The iron interest with which he is identified has made this county wealthy. There 'ls not a man, woman or child, in this 'county, but what has been benefited by his leethoctordoing business. A sense of justice 'should dictate a unanimous vote for him. He has succeeded in building up the iron manufac turing,basiness when the whole weight of the Govorprasuf,Wielded by the pro slavery demo eratai-opposed it.

The Democracy then said his acts were illegal and without au thority of law, and so convincing were their arguments that no attempt was made to answer them. The highest Court in the State has pronounced the proceedings of the Cmivention unconstitutional, which rastores the old slave constitution and all laws passed under it. The President went so far as to dictate to, the Cobvention that they must so frame the new Constitution, as to wipe out the ordinances of secession, the institution of slavery, repudiate the rebel debt, guarantee thd payment of the national debt, and other .material changes.— These were his directions to all the Southern States, and t er imposed by him upon them, before llq won 4 recommend the admis sion of their Relwetentatives into Congress. When Congress met, that body asked to have those'very'requisites placed in the Constitution of the United States, in order to make them permanent, and place their repeal beyond the reach of the wire-pullers of a single State. If it was right and necessary for the States, severally to adopt Constitutions containing those provisions, and they werejust and propel' and required for the future safety of the coun try, is it not better that they be placed beyond repeal and beyond the control of the men who have once overriddeb, not only the Constitutions of their own States, but made very great efforts to destroy the Constitution and Government of the United States, and would have succeeded, had there not have been a power outside of those States sufficient to prevent them. •: The question now is: Shall the very meas ures required by the President to be engrafted into the Constitutions of the several States lately, in rebellion be made permanent by mak- Ikg them a part of the Constitution of the Unit ed States, or shall they be left in the care and protection of rebel officers, to be repealed or, o'y r erridden whenever 'they can gain by doing so ? Congress says yes : the President says no. That,he is the sole judge, and Congress has nothing to do or say iu the matter—which is right, which will be the most permanent and soonest end the whole controversy about recon struction and rebel representation. ~ 1 When the proposed constitutional amend. mint--now before the people for their adoption or rejection—was submitted by Congress, no in telligent man cold see anything objectionable in it; but no sooner was it ascertained that President Johnson had decided to oppose the amendment, than the cops made a furious on slaught upon this just and equitable measure. They knew very well that the proposed meas urs was right and just, but took a partisan view of the field and reasoned thus : "Here is an op portunity to defeat ow old political opponents— the Republican party.—Johnson has the offices to give out; he will give them to republicans who care more abont office than principle ; these republicans, combined with our own par ty, will constitute a majority, and thus we will :defeat the Republican Union party." In Maine, as elsewhere, the copped ohnsons took a partisan view of the field, and forgot to take into consideration that portion of the peo ple who are not partisans, and who look more to the real value and utility of a measure than to the bearing it may have on parties. The cops of Maine, reasoning from a partisan stand point, sent out—just before the election—con gratulatory messages to their friends in differ ent parts of the country, stating that they would elect Sweat, in the first Congressional district, certain, and probably two and perhaps three more in other districts. They based their cal culation upon the fact that they had bought up half a dozen Republican presses, and had en listed several thousand bread and butter Re publicans in their ranks. But the sequel shows that the Republican gain over former majorities is at least 10,000 ; that the people are incor ruptible, and are determined to demonstrate their disapproval of Mr. Johnson's insane and impetuous course. PROMOTED.—We are glad to learn that Gen. Hartrauft, now Auditor General of the State, has received the compliment of a commission of Colonel in the Regular Afmy. This promo tion was made at the request of General Grant. While the army will receive a good Colonel the State will lose a good Auditor. Governor Curtin will have to appoint an .officer for the place thus made vacant. General Pennebeek er, of Chester county, is mentioned as the prob able choice of the Governor. He will make a good officer, and richly deserves this revgni don from the "Soldier's Friend." • larlmpartial Suffrage cannot be au issue in the Pennsylvania canvass. The addrese of the Union State Committee says: "The Constitu tion of Pennsylvania permits only white men to vete. By its terms it can lie amended only once in•five years. Having been amended in 1864, allowing soldiers the right to vote, it -inn not, in conformity with its own provisions, he amended again until 1869. It is hoped, them. fore, our Democratiefriends will resttainthem selves, and not press negro suffrage upon us be fore authorized 'by the Constitution of the State." gerA change seems to have 4 come over the minds of some of the supporters of "my policy" since the Vermont and Maine elections. Many of them now frankly acknowledge that there is really nothing objectionable in the constitution. - al amendment proposed by Congress. If they are honestly in favor of this amendment they will cast their votes for Geary and Thomas. las.. King Johnson is reported to have said that ho does not care for the people or anything else—that ho intends to carryout "his policy" at all hazards. Let the people give "the king" such a rebuke, on the 9th of October, as will make him tremble on his throne. Itel...At Detroit, Mr. Seward pnt the question to vote in a multitude of men gathered in the ,street, "Do rot tivng Andrew Johnson Tor President or Kinq ?"

POLITICAL MEETI NOS.—During the Fair last week, politicians took advantage of the crowd of strangers in town, by getting up meetings on the square in the evenings. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings the Re publicans were ably addressed in trout of the Eagle Ilotel by Judge Hunter of Tennessee, Col. Gibbon, Capt.. Kilgore, Gen. :McAllister, and by our own citizens, Dr. \V. J. Romig and James S. Biery. The Copper•Jultnson•Clymerites were ad dressed in trout of the Alen House by Hun. B. M. Buyer, O'llyrue, of Philadelphia. and by some of the newly fledged lawye:s of our town. From the character of the speakers they put forward, we judge they are hard up for material, and judging from the character of the speeches and lack of enthusiasm, they are harder up for argument. Every prop has been knocked from under them except the pcor negro, which is about the only string they have left to play on. Our reporter who was on band presents the following as a synop sic of the speeches. "Mr. President—Con stitution—Nigger—Audy Juhrison—Nigger— Clymer—Nigger—DemocFacy—Nigger -Tax es.

Address, W. C. & F. P. CHURCH., No. 39 Park Row, New York. Communicated.] CATASALNITA Sept. 17;181A. MESSRS. EDITORS : —On Monday night last, the locomotive, George Crane, belonging to the Crane Iron Co. ' ran off the track at Trex lertown, on the C. 87, F. R. R., by reason of the 6wit2h being turned the wrong way. No body hurt. On Saturday morning last, the locomotive, Cambria, exploded her boiler while standing on the track in front of the Crane Iron Com pany's works, raising steam. There were none of the hands belonging to her present, except the fireman, Mr. George Matchett, a brother of Capt. Matchett, who wne oiling the engine at the time ; ho was scalded, cut and bruised badly, but is doing very well under the circumstances. His escape from instant death is a matter of aitouisliment. The ex plosion was caused by a defect in the boiler. The Rolling Mill of this place has been stopped for a few days on account of some of the machinery giving out. The I :;ratie Iron Company, are abcut finish ing a very handsome blast engine house, stir• mounting it with a beautiful cupola, which affords a grand view of the surrounding coun try. JEELIS. FAlit.—The Lehigh County Agricultu ral Society held their Annual Exhibition dur ing last week. The display was equal to any ever made in this county nod we believe hard to boat anywhere. . The cattle were very fine and the number entered for exhibition large, showing that though our farmtrs do not pay much attention to grazing, the stuck they do raise and' keep is of the best. Al! the live stock was must excellent, and the department allotted to that branch so full and so good as to give the Judges much trouble to tell which swas the best. The display of poultry was very large and exceedingly fine, embracing nearly all the known kinds, Thetorses were fully equal in every class, to those of any other year.— In the House the display of Fruit and Veg etables was very large and fine. Our coun try people must be very fond of good vegeta bles and know how to cultivate them. judging .from the quality of those on exhibition. The fruits cannot easily be beaten in any county in the State. The Ladies Department was well, filled with fancy work, exhibiting the ingenuity and taste of the fair sex as well us their love for display. Taste is necessary to render a home pleasant and happy—a trait the mothers and daughters of this county possess in a high degree, and exhibitions of this kind tend to stimulate to greater exertions in preparing new patterns and styles, and perfecting them in the most beautiful manner. The specimens of Bread, Cakes, Pies, JLI ios, Preserves, &0., were nu: merous and looked very tempting. The entries of machinery were numerous, many of them of new and improved patterns, adapted to the use of the farmer and mechanic ; among others was a Steel Plow with a subsoil attachinent, which our farmers will do well to examine and try. Tho attendance on Tuesday was not very large as that was the day fixed for receiving and arranging the articles for display, but on Wednesday the grounds were well filled and all appeareilto enjoy themselves. Tke new fountain Was one ot.the attractions ft* a time, but soon lost its power among the anumerous shows and curiosities on the ground. The snake charmer, flying coach, medicine man and other humbugs-did a thriving business.— Thursday the weather was cloudy and threat ened rain which kept many away. The shuw cry weather of Friday caused the attendance to be slim on that day. On account of the unfavorable weather the Directors resolved to continue the exhibittoreon Saturday, which day proved fair, and: thd.attendance in the afternoon was 'very largo.' The total receipts. of the fair were between thirty-six and thirty seven hundred dollars. Our Agricultural Fair has becometa great institution in. Lehigh county. UNION MEETINOS.—ThO UOIOO Repub.

Lewis 11. Roth, a ono armed sc ldicr was nominated fur Register, and his alum) IRO announced. Last 'xi-esti, a letter was sent to this office, written doubt.ess with the consent of Mr. Roth,'Lut not by him,„kor signed by him, refusing to accept the nomina• Lion, We have taken come pains to ascertain the reason, and find that certain Cops. had promised to securo him the appointment of AT+istant Assessor, provided ho would refuse and vote for Clymer. Wo feel sorry for him, he has served hiS • country faithfully in her hour of noed, and now to he ohcatetrout of his reward is rather hard. his chances for elec tion were as good es for the appointment. By his withdrawal, lie lost the first, and by the perfidy of the Copperheads ho lost the latter. This should be a warning to soldiers and all others, not to place any confidence in the promises of men educated to falsehood and do °option, and who never fail to apply that ctlu oation in all the political relations of life. • (For the Register.) THE GOVERNMENT. • • ••" Your neighbor of the Allentown Democrat has much to siy of lato about ..supporting the Governmegt," land calls those traitors who do riot suriport or denounce President Johnson's Policy. r;ife argues that if it wee treasonable to oppose. Preeident Linoclu, it must ho trea sonable tuopplse J Anson , since it it were loy tillo suriport otio it) certainly is lisloyal nut to support the other. Now, who among the loyal ever did Fay that it was treason not to support President Lin coln? or can the editor of the Democrat point to a line in any loyal paper during the war that roads thus:— "Cur Government is a Government of the people and the Congress is the popular branch, or the people's voice, in the Government which is Legislative, JUdicial and Executive, these three constitute the Government." • During President Lincoln's time those three branches•of the Government were harmonious and a unit in a Policy, had a right tea policy, and the people in duty bound, supported the Government, doubly their duty then, because we were in a state cf war. How is,it now 1--; The Congress represent the people, and have a policy which they, being the Legislative branch of the Government, have a right to have, and it is the duty of the President and the cabinet to respect and not to disrespect the Congressional authority, and if the President has a policy to suggest, that he can consistent ly do, but • ho cannot as the Exeoutivu officer of the Government, dictate or enforce his poli cy.. The President can veto the policy of Ccin gross, and that is why the Constitution gives him the veto power, for common sense teaches that if it were Constitutional for the President to enforce adverse measures against the will of Congress, our Government is not a Republic, but a Government of one man, and if so, a despotism. Nay, the President is not the Government, he is but the Executive officer of the Government, has.pl.med himself antagonis tic to the people's branch of the Government, and instead of his enforcing or pressing hie policy, his province is to make suggestions re toting to their policy, which if it does not suit him he can veto when necessary, and if he un dertakes to set himself up against Congress, it becomes their duty-to impeach him, they be ing clothed with that power, and not only aro certain powers reserved to Congress, but con- stitutionally it is above the President, and hence can overcome oven his veto, thus show ing that the Congress and not the President is the branch of the Government to ho supported, when, us in the present case, the President sets himself against the Congress.

Press.] Falsehood Corrected—Soldiers' Bonn SIR : Every Copperhead orator, every Coy perjohnson newspaper in tho State, persists in asserting that Congress has voted a larger bounty to the black soldier than - the law'gtves to the white soldier. Now, lot ua look at.the fasts CI tilt , : Neil-els to the pas-ago of the i5tn..864 (s..ction 2,) and July 4 1., 1831 (n.utiutt 1,) hat few, it any, ut hi col wen! troops were entitled to any bounty; Those note merely placed the calorid saldior upon the same footing "as other soldiers of. tbo reg ular or volunteer fines of the United States of like arm of the service." It quote tho exact words of the law. • • The only discrimination that exists is in fit nor of the white soldier, who, by the act of Ju ly 28, 1866, is entitled to an EXTRA It iUNTY of one hundred dollars, which the c.dored soldier does not gel. Therm Copporjohnson orators and newspapers knowor ought to know, that these are the feats of the case. It is true that the colored man who served two years can get, and many of them have boon paid, $lOO bounty ; so has the white man ; but the white man, by the net of July 28, 1866, is entitled lOANOTIIER $lOO, which the coloi ed scidicr can not vet, as there were no colored troops in the service at the time for which this $lOO extra bounty is to be paid. This bill was signed by President Johnson, and it is rather strange to see the friords of the President trying to bring discredit , upon Congress for passing a bill which ho himself approved, and which would not have become a law without his signature Why is this exti a bounty of $lOO to the white troops not paid ? The bill allowing it has passed both llouses of Congress, and been ap proved by the President. There is money enough in the treasury tu.pay it • and if it is not paid, it is the fault Ogle of the President and his office-holders. They aro withholding the payment of this extra bounty for no other purpose than to influence the elections. Lot the white soldiers hold them responsible for it A WRITE SOLDIER.

IL, La.; become disgusted with Johnsonism, and kicked out of the traces. lie expects to lose the dile°, but thinks the wear and tear of conscience necessary to keep it don't pay. While General Grant was in Phil:0010:in a Johnsonito told him that Clymer wou d gt t the larger part of the soldiers' vote. The General replied: "I think you will be mistaken in that. Clymer is a copperhead, and the sol dier who votes fur him will disgrace himself and the fla,trhe fought under."
