TIRE SALARY OF TM& COUNTY
TREASURER.
A bill passed the t egislature repealing the
Act of Assembly regulating the salary of our
County Treasurer. Our ten line articlo ob
jecting to the Governor signing the bill called
forth a half column article from the Demodeg,
In the favorite lingo of the Democre , Y) de
nunciatory Of our course in refoaffice to this
subject. Notwithstanding the supposed po
tency of the Denwerat's'etlhorials, our ten line
article has won the (Iq, and we announce
with jcy that Governor Geary has vetoed One
" Democratic lull," There is giffry enough
in this alone, and we have not the least ill
feeling toward the Democrat, therefore we
Ducheafe the following explanation, though
we should not feel warranted in condescending
to give it, were it not that the author of the
Democrat's article has shown himself very in
experienced in journalism. We would, there
fore, say that—
When Mr. Ruhe again undertakes to write
an article concerning Tim LEIIIOR REGISTER,
we wish him to bear in mind- that anything
which appears in this paper is not the individ
ual opinion of Mr. Iredell, or Mr. Willseithen;
that TUE LEHIGH REGISTER is the organ of
the Republican party of Lehigh county ; that
any o pinions or principles which are promul
gated by this journal are the opinions or prin
ciples of the Republican party, as to the best
of our ability and judgment we are able to
give them.
It may be disagreeable to Mr. W. K. Rube,
for us to oppose any pet scheme he basin hand,
and as this one involves a certain anffiunt of
money we forgive his hasty and unwarranted
epithets, but as we promised, in our issue of
the 6th of January, to exert every influence to
,check unwise expenditure in our county gov
ernment, we could not stand by and let this
measure pass without n protest front the organ
of the Republican party of Lehigh county.
" The carpet bagger who runs" this machine
has not lived in this county all, his life, it is
• true, but he lias always been comfortably !mina
from the time he set foot in this town. If Mr.
Rube means that length of time of residence
only entitles an expression of opinion on such ,
subjects, we have only to say that TIIE REG
ISTER has lived, and spoken and carried its
principles in this county for over twenty years,
• and that it participated in the discussion of the
principles which now rule this GovernmOnt,
when Mr. Ruhe was yet running around in
• pinafores.
'FRE REGISTER protested against the Gov
ernor signing that bill because it is the univer
sal desire of the Republicans of Lehigh county,
and of a large number of leading Democrats
besides, who have a desire for economy in our
local expenditures, that the compensation al
lowed the County Treasurer should remain as
at present. The present incumbent knew, or
ought to have known, the arduous duties he
had to perform, and the celery and fees derived,
when he became a candidate for that Mike,
There were•many other applicants who did
know what the duties and compensation were,
all of whom were perfectly willing to do the
work required and assume 'all the responsibil
ities of the position for that sum, and we can
see no reason why the salary Should be in ;
creased now. If our County Treasurer now
discovers, when it is too late, that the office Iv
not so fat as he supposed, it is his error and
not the fault of the tax-payers of this county.
Mr. !tithe says in cometusion that • "we
would suggest as a text for his next sermon on
economy, the extract from the speech of Mr.
Jenckes, a Reptiblican Congressman, front
Mode Island, in which Ike charges Republi
can officials with annually stealing use hun
dred ti Miens of dollurs from the Govern
ment." As such an accusation • was never
made by Mr. Jenckes it is impossible for us to
take that text. With very rare exceptions
the persons now holding United States offices
arc appointers of Andrew' Johnson, and they
are the most corrupt officials we ever had. To
these men, Democrats most of ahem, the re
marks of Mr. Jenckes apply. Here in the
VIM District every Federal appointment is
filled by a Democrat.' When General Grant
takes hold of the reins of power, these men
will be cleared out, Republicans will be ap
pointed to till thei4laces and those one hun
dred of .dollars annually will find
their way into the Treasury of the Govern
ment instead of into the pocketS of Andttiv
Johnson's thieves.
THE SUFFRAGE AMENDMENT.
While illiterate copperhead scribblers are ex
hibiting their peculiar weakness in regard to
the question °retarment courage a Republi
can Congress is deliberately and heroically
preparhig the way for the Legislatures of the
several States to filially show all the world
lied the rest of mankind" that this is in reality
a Republic in the true sense office word. The
amendintolt guaranteeing universal suffrage
passed the Douse some time since with most
,commendable dispatch. It went then to the
Senate. mac body, after debating the' ques
tion, further amended the proposed amend
ment by adding the right of all citizens to hold
office as well as to vote. The amendment was
then passed by the Senate, after an almost un
interrupted session front Monday until Tues
day afternoon of last week. The Copperheads
fought it,with their usual mistaken zeal. The
vote was as follows :
Yeas—Messrs. Abbott, Chandler, Cattell,
Cameron, Cole (fullness, Cragin,
Drake, Ferry, Cole,
Harris, Howe, Kellogg,
McDonald, Morgim, Morrill of Vermont, Mor

Nays—Messrs. Anthony, Bayard, Corbett,
Davis, Dixon, Doolittle, Edmunds, Fowler,
Grimes, Hendricks, Mcercery, Patterson of
Tennessee, Saulsbury, Sprague, Vickers,
Whytelo.
The Amendment as passeifin the Senate, is
as follows:
Joint resolution proposing amendments
the Constitution of the United States :
'Be it resolved, by the Senate 'and House of
Representatives, &c., two-thirds of both I louses
concurring, That the following articles be pro
posed to the Legislatures of the several States
as an amendment to the Constitution of the
United States, either of which when ratified by
three-fottrths of said Legislatures shall be held
as a part of said Constitution, namely :
Article 11. No discrimination shKil he made
in the United States, among the citrions of the
United States, In the exercise of the elective
franchise, or in the right to hold office in any
State, on account of race, color, nativity, prop
erty, education or creed.
Article 16. The second clause, first section,
second article of the Constitution of the United
States, shall be amended to read WA 10110W8:
Each State shall appoint, by a vote of the
people thereof qualified to vote for ltepresen
tatives in. Congress, a number of electors equal
'to the whole number of Senators and Repre
sentatives to which the State may be entitled
In the Congress ; but no Senator or Represen
tative., or person holding an office of trust or
profit under the United States shall be appoint
ed nn eltctor ; and the Congress shall have
power to prescribe the manner in which such
,electors shallte chosen by Ukcjwople.
It will now go back to the Muse for con
currence, where we predict it will pasnin time
to be . submitted to, the Legislatures now in

THE SHAM DEMOCRACY.
The organs of the so-called Democratic
party never weary — of denouncing Republican
office-holders for making, as they Allege, un
lawful and extravagant use of the public funds.
To read their columns one might suppose that
a Republican administration had committed a
great sin in lignidoang, by careful manage
ment, a grent'portion of our own State debt.
The - Allentowo Dcmobrat, is a fair sample of a
copperhead Paper professing great considera
tion for the " dear people," has not a word to
say against the present shining lights in the
Democratic party—the particular Pets of John
son't Bread-and-Butter Brigade—who daily
and hourly rob the people by a systematic
scheme of fraud all over the country. The
Collector of Customs at New York, and at other
ports, can fail to account for millions of the
Goveruffient money ; defaulters in almost
every locality, appointed to office by the Pres
ident or heads of departments through the_
solicitation of Democratic Congressmen, may
go unwhipped ofjustice with not a word of
censure from such miserable apologies for an
independent and fearless-newspaper press !---
Is there au effort to show up the extravagance
of their local officers, they inimcdiately dis
gust the public with their low Billingsgate in
attempting to apologize fLr the shortcomings
of their political friends.
What a contrast between the Republican
and the " Democratic" press of this country ?
The former, a a general thing, denounces cor
ruption from every quarter : it appears to be
the province of the latter to cover up the
wrong and peculation committed by its own
party.
GENERAL GRANT'S brief letter of acknow
edgraent passes to the journal of Congress
has :
GENTLEMEN: PICCISC notify the two 1101.18C13 Of
'ongress of my acceptance of the important trust
o which I have been elected, and of which you
save just notified me ; inid say to them that it will
IC my endeavor to so discharge It that they and
1106 C who elected theM shall have no reason to re=
Bret their Alton.
Beneath it stands that of Mr. Colfax, in these
words : ••
GENTLEMEN : Please convey to the two houses of
Congress my tweeptattee of the office to which I
have been elected by the people of the United
Mates, and assure them that I shall endeavor to
prove worthy of this mark of confidence by fidelity
to principle and duty.
It is seldoni that two such unostentatious
papers me made the medium of thanks and
the promise of fidelity, where the occallion is
so great rind the inducement to elaborate so
strong.--PreBs
THE Ohio Legislature has introduced a plan
for the suppression of prize fighting. This is
strange enough too when we consider that the
Democrats have a majority there at present.
The bill makes it a crime, punishable by fine
or imprisonment, or both, to report, or print,
or cause to be reported or printed, any an
nouncement that a light is to occur. The idea
is gootl . and if adopted generally would tend
greatly tqward abolishing these brutal ex
hibitions. We suggest the passage of a like
bill by oar own Legislature, because, gentle
men, let us have something else besides
charters for every imaginable thing.

l i
Meter has been enitagritlin 1111 H charitable work,
he hits rescued nearly 0000 of these little waifs of
humanity from vice a I immorality and found
comfortable homes for )I'lll ninon g moral people.
Mr. Van Meter is not 101iient speaker, and would
scarcely succeed In 1 invest:Mg Ills hearers with
the importance of Ills abject if It were not for the
fact that "he 1H known ty ills works." The most
casual observer, howeNftr, cannot full DJ percelvt
that bin 01101 is full to Co•erllowlng with l'lnilnes(
and love for those ll(' little ones who if not
rescued from their &Own and depraved par

In ° crime and Ignorance. Ills work may be an
ardous one, but it is Imre glorious—more In ac
cordance with the toad lugs of 1 110 great and good
1111111 pf Nazarittli,—thri the plaudits showered
upon the conqueror sin the statesman. Mr. Van
Meter Is rewarded by the •satisfactlon he feels
that he has done his 1111 y, anti more too,towards
the poor 111111 11l'Ipi0S1. and when his spirit is
wafted hooey to real its above, null the book "I
