have sent out circulars, which have been
exposed. We make one extract :
"The oldest, most reliable Democrats,
after due reflection, have concluded that
the operations of this committee, and even
its existence, should be private, as its good
effects would be entirely neutralized IF
parties upon whom they are intended to
operate have a knowledge of its members,
and of the objects with which they are
approached."
These sneaking ICG.C.'s are trying to
do in the North, just what has been done
in the South !
Center county has sent our more volun
teers, in proportion to population, than any
other countf in our State and four fifths
of them are Republicans. Their absence
makes the Cops boastful of a big majority
in Old Center : but tho Republicans and
Union Democrats are tbtinq to carry it.

"Wbstever tbe sin of seising the de

bis policy, so disgraceful to Eoglsnd,
and ao mjurious to tbe colonies, so perse-
vcriogly adhered to by her, aud so abun

causes which filially impelled tbe colonics
to throw off their allegianoe to Great

"The aot of 1780, which abolished sla

It wiped out tbe stain of alavery, which
Eoglsnd bad left on onr soil, sod confer

him those civil rights to which he in com

quarter of a century has made him an
older if not a better man. (Some fruits
ripen but others rot.) After the Rebell
ion bad made some progress, Jndge Wood
ward (1860) made a speech in Pbilsd.,
which was published in pamphlet form.
That edition is now suppressed, and a
portion of it appears in tbe neutpajeri.
Front Ibat speech, it will be seen that he
now advocates perpetaal Slavery as a
right ! a blessing ! and an indispensable
necessity ! for England and for (he
Union aye, he virtually justifies the Re
bellion to Perpetuate Slavery !
What he said In 1860.
"Remember that Cotton, the produce of
slave labor, bu. been one of the indispen
sable elements of all this prosperity.
More, it most bo an indispensable element
of all onr future prosperity. I say it
most bo. Tbt world eaa not and will not
live without cotton. There ia aot a ma
tron in all tha Union that eaa clothe her
family or herself without it Nor can
England do withont our cotton. Her
mills snd ours would rot, and ber opera
lives and onrs would starve, if the negroes
did not raise cotton. Mannmit them aod
tbey will never raise another crop. They
need tbe aatbority of a master and the eye
of an overaeer to compel aod direct them
to the duties of the cotton plan', which
uin't be rendrmi at the right aeae0 pre
ci ely, or the crop is lost.
"And thus it happens, that tbe Provi-
nVnce of that (lond being who baa witch-1
id er os from the beginning, ond saved
oa from external foes, has so ordired onr
internal relatione as to mike nero slavery

On page 170, same volume, Mr. Wood
ward moved the following amendment :
"Provided, That free male citizen, qua
lified by aye and residence as aforesaid,
wbo shall, withia two years next before
the elections, have paid any road, poor,
school, or uiuoioipal corporation tax,
assessed by virtue of aoy law of thie
Commonwealth, shsll also be entitled to

Vol. 5 of Vright'l Penn'a Reports, on
psge 403, commences tbe Army case. In
1 SGI, io Luzerne county, tbe Republicans
eloated their ticket by the Army vote :
tbe home vote being Demooratie. E. B.
Chase, (a particular friend of Woodward,) :
was defeated for District Attoroey by J.G. j
Miller, Rep. Chase contested, alledging ;
that soldiers should not vote. The Jodge
of the county (Conyngham, Dem.) denied
tbe application, affirming tbe soldiers bad
that right by plain Legislative enactments
when Chase appealed to the Sopreme
Court. May 22, 18G2, WOODWARD;
delivered the opinion of a majority of tbe
Court, (Thompson dissenting,) giving to
Chase the offioe, on tbe ground that the
Law regulating the voting of soldiers, by
whose votes Miller had tbo majority, was
unconstitutional !
FOREIGNERS.
In Vol V. of same work, we find the
following official, antbentie record :
Mr.
... , - , . a .t.
Woodward moved to amend the
amendment by adding thereto, the words :
"and that the aaid committee be instraeted
to inquire into toe propriety oi so amcno-.
ing the eonstitation, as to prevent any ;
foreigners who may arrive iu th.s Sts.c
after the fourth day of July, 1841, from ,
acqniring the right to vote or lohold offioe
in this Commonwealth.
On that motion he spoke see page 444
ot English, and page 536 of German
Debates of Convention, tbas :

Woodward, that something shonld be done

we do but squander those privileges in con

chooses to eons and claim them. He

Ou psge IS of Vol. X. Mr. Woodward
makes the following bitter attack on the
pride and glory of Irelaod 0'Co4.ilL

ward himself had denounced. Wa sup

We fnd the hopes for the tleetioo of
Woodward depend chiefly npea that
"worst part of the population of foreign
I ,...;.,' h tr, to "control anr .lea-
tions" snd "brow beat American eitiseos
at the polls" in New York city and tbe
mining regions. The outrages of these
eoadjutors of Woodward, are fresh ia the
memory of the people. Now, Woodward
associates and works with the very elasaee
he then denounced : ho thinks O'Conoel
"fit to be named :" nay, he will enjoy
! (until election) "iheriob Irish brogue and
ibe sweet German accent" as much as
aoy candidate of bis delicate organixalion
and ambition jossibly can !
Those are marvelous changes, indeed.
From a wholesome contemner of Slavery,
be decides to become its spologist, and a
devotes of Kisg Cotton. From a de
nouooer of alien-born voters, he changes
into a sycophant for the seme. From rec
ognizing tbe right of "every man" (except
foreigners arriving after 1841) to suffrage,
be comes to exclude eolored men and sol-
diers,on Constitutional grounds althoagh
colored mea and soldiers bad voted under
the Old Constitution, aod although sold-
icrs voted under tbe New (or present)
Constitution also, io Mexico, and no one

What shall be said of such twisting and

out, like men, and confess to a change of
