The 15th Amendment may add
about 75 votes to the radical column
in our county, not enough to endanger
the county to the Democrats, if our
party keeps awake, and gets out its
vote. - The majority which can be
polled in favor of the Democracy in
old Centre, when our full vose is out,
would be some 600 to 700. In Penns
valley, the Gibralter of Centre county
Democracy, we can count hut one col-
ored voter for the radicals—the great
addition falls to them at Aaronsburg;
but as an offset, there are two republi-
cans who have told us, that they never
believed their party would force negro
suffrage upon an unwilling people, and
these two votes will be a white radical
loss in Pennsvalley, for one colored
gain, This will be the working of the
15th Amendment, in all other locali-
tics, and the next election will show
it, to the surprize of the unprincipled
radical leaders, who, by fraud, im
posed the Amendment upon the peo-
ple.

The First Negro Voting in Centre
County.
On last Saturday, 16th inst, the
first negro voting, in Centre county,
took place at Bellefonte, at the special
election for justice of the peace. So
far as our information goes, sixteen
Sambos voted—15 for the regular rad
candidate, Cheesman, for Squire, and
I for Klinger, independent rad. The
Democrats had no nominee. Our in-
formant, who was an eye-witness, says
that Brown and Hutchinson led the
buck negroes to the polls by the arm,
these leading worthies all the time
hanging their heads, ashamed of their
work, yet God fursaken enough to en-
gage in it, in broad day light, for par-
ty's sake. Well did these scamps know
that they were offering an insult to
every white being they met upon the
street, conscious that the 15th Amend-
ment was one of the most damnable
frauds perpetrated, and which did
the radical party, while the entire de-
mocracy of the Union look upon it as
a piece of the boldest villainy of the
nineteenth century,

DEMOCRATIC VICTORIES.
Since the proclamation declaring the
ratification of the 15th amendment, the
Democrats have been victorious and
made gains at all elections held.
At the charter election in Trenton,
on the 11th inst., the radicals and their
black allies were everywhere routed.
quarters, with a single exception. The
only paper yet, which we noticed as
bewailing the defeat of the bill is the
Morning Patriot. We regret very
much that our able cotemporary sees
fit totake so decided a stand in favor
of a measure which has proven so ab-
noxious to ninety-nine out of every
hundred of the citizens of the State. If
all the other strong arguments advau-
ced in the veto message, against the
bill, were set aside, the Governor
would have been warranted in killing
the bill: by ‘his veto, upon the sole
ground, that the act meets with the al-
most unanimous disapproval of the
people of the commonwealth,—a will
which should not be disobeyed, and
which we regret to find the Morning
Patriot, in this case, battling against.
No measure has for many years been
passed by the legislature of this State,
which created sach a herried and deep
indignation among the people and has
its only parallel in the repeal of the
tonnage tax.

The Pittsburg Post advocates the
removal of the state capital to Phila-
delphia, upon the ground that we
would have purer legislation, and that
that city being much larger, would
naturally, with its great facilities for
accommodation, cause the numbers to
be scattered around more as to their
boarding places, and less liable to be
found for button-holing purposes, than
at Harrisburg, where the members are
all obliged to roost so elosely to-gether.
We will second the Post in anything
that will ensure purer legislation for
the legislatively cursed commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, and we will go a step
farther than our cotemporary, the Post
—which generally is sound and right
upon all questions—and will favor the
removal of the state capital to Van
Dieman’s Land, whither the Queen
sends her coovicts to purify them, for
if the locality answers to improve a
British: felon, it might have the like
effect upon a radical legislature of
Pennsylvania. At all events, we think
it deserves being banished thither.
But, we ask the Post, is it sure that hy
having the legislature sit in Philadel-
phia, good would result? Is it not a
notorious fact that all the corruption
in our legielature finds its origin in
Philadelphia, and is it not equally
true that that city keeps a corrupt del-
egation at Harrisburg all the time,
which is the leven that corrupts what
is corrupted among the country mem-
bers. Ifit were not for the bad men
representing Philadelphia in the state
legislature; from year to year, Davis
Adaire, Josephs, and the other city
roosters, the people of our state would
have a vast deal less to complain of on
the score of bad legislation.

REVELS A FRAUD.
The negro Senator Revels, turns out
to bea fraud. . This is not surprising
to the Democrats, notwithstanding the
rads. baye kissed, and ‘hugged, and
lauded this Sambo to the skies for his,
smartness—~which they are forced to
claim for him, in order to make peo-
ple believe that the negro is as good
as a white man. Revels was to make |
a speech in Brooklyn, on the evening
of the 11th inst. the account of which
goes to show that he is a fraud. A
dispatch from that city says: Revels
isa fraud. That was plainly visible
in Brooklyn last evening, when he not
only read his speech from manuscri pt, |
but found difficulty in“réading it. Li
that is what we must expect from our |
Senators, what is the use of our Pub

What did We Fight For?
If it were possible to obtain it, what
a curious history we should find in a
record of the ideas that our soldiers en-
tertained respecting the object they
were fighting for.
In a general way they were taught
that they were fighting for their coun-
try, for their liberties, for their homes
and firesides, for their glorious Consti-
tution. After fighting awhile, there
wasadded, for the freedom of the slaves,
and for the restoration of the Union;
but what the men and officers really
thought is another thing. Now, since
the shock of battle is over, and the
Fifteenth Amendment is proclaimed,
let us ask, What did we fight for ? and
secondly, Did we get it?
Did we fight for what the President
proclaims that we have secured, “four
millions of negro voters?’ If we did,
that score. We do not believe that
the President has counted fairly, but
we are ready to. compromise on six
hundred thousand for the colored vote.
Did we fight for our Constitution?
Where is it, or what is. it now? Are
our homes and our firesides more com-
fortable, or more happy than they were
before? Are our people as free as be-
Is the feeling between the people of

cers: but among the respegtive - peo-
ples generally, the feeling is more bit-
ter, and hate more intensified,
If we were fighting for peace and to
secure their general wellare, there was
a time when such might have been ac-
complished in that direction. If at
the close of the war there had been a
magnanimous man at the head of the
War Department, and a magnanimous
al amnesty, and a fraternal feeling to
wards our conquered brethren, we
should have met the same spirit and
we will then have secured peace and
good will among our people. Instead

Canton, China.
FusEBIUS, in his letters to the N.Y,
Observer, writing from China, gives
the following interesting sketch of the
city of Canton:
Twelve miles below the city we pass
Whampoa, once a place of some com-
mercial importance, and soon after,
come upon the outskirts of the wilder-
ness of boats which forms one of the
most remarkable sights of the great
city. It is estimated that 300,000 of
the people belonging to Canton live
on the water in boats, not merely to
obain a livelihood from the water, but
cheifly for the sake of a residence,
The people are born, spend their days,
and die in these boats; the most of
which are mere sampans, an ordinary
rowboat, with a sitnple mat or bamboo
covering over one half of the boat, to
protect its inhabitants from the sun and
rain. This is the only home or shelter
that they have from the time of their
birth until they are carried to the grave,
and vet a happier-looking class cf peo-
ple I have not seen anywhere in Chi-
pa. One morning I saw under my
window, which was on the shore, a fam-
ily of ten persons—father, mother, and
eight young children, taking their
breakfast of rice and fish and a
few greens, in one end of their boat,
and apparent[y as well contented as
if they owned a palace. These boats
are of all sizes and of all sorts, the
most of them small and plain, but
many others large and elaborately or-
namented with carvings in wood and
gold and paint; some of them occupi-
ed as restaurants and places of amuse-
ment and for other purposes; the large
boats being usually moored alongside of
each other, with long streets running
between the blocks. Besides these,
there are innumerable eraft, junks of
all sizes, sailing or rowing up and down
and across the river, making it exceed-
ingly difficult at times to find an open-
ing through which to steer a boat.
The men who live on these boats go
ashore for employment during the day,
and the women ply the oars, and capi
tal boatmen they are. I give them a
decided preference over men, for they
are not only equally handy with the
oar or the scull, but they are far more
polite, and I may add, more honest
than their poorer halves who are on
shore at work during the day.
There have been some fearfully sad
scenes among this class of the popula-
tion of Canton. The typhoons, which
sweep over the China seas and along
the coast, and which are so destructive
to shipping, seldom come so far inland
as Canton ; but only four or five years
since, one of the most severe ever
known passed over the city, and it is
comparatively easy to imagine the hav-
— ss
the poorer people, but fmpossible to
describe, or even to conceive, the scenes
which followed. This wilderness of
river craft, which at ordinary times is
so quiet, only sways hither and thither
with the tide. was like a heap of chaff
before the tempest. ‘The light. house-
boats, many of which are gaily orna-
mented, became as dust to the wind,
and were carried away no one knew
where ; the heavier boats were sunk in
great numbers, the occupants were
hurled into the waters, while their
homes were torn to pieces; and when
the storm had passed and on estimate
could be made of the loss of life, it
was found that 60,000 persons had per
ished. For a long time the river was
strewn with dead bodies.
Canton is regarded as the first city
in the empire for wealth and elegance.
It is the best built, and, what ts no
‘mean praise for a Chinese city, it is
the cleanest. There is no external
magnificence in any of the buildings
of this or any other city. The houses,
generally combining both shop and res-
idence, are usually of one story, never
more than two, and there is scarcely
such a thing to be imagined here as
architectural taste. It would be was-
ted, if there were such an element in
the composition of the people, for the
city, like all others, 1s so compact
that nothing could be seen to advan-
tage. Ther is not a street im Canton
that is more than eight or ten feet wide.

standing there she was discovered in
her perilous situation. Immediately
several men went upon the roof and
let down a rope and tried to persuade
her to fasten it around her. She

laugh at them, but refused to use it.
Meanwhile beds were brought out and

were on the ground awaited her fall.
Nothing daunted, after remaining on

beholders, and glorious relief at her

A conductor on thh Hudson River rail-

occured on a New Jersey railroad just be,
fore the inauguration. In thet case, His
Excellency assumed high grounds, threat-
enning to report the conductor and cause
kis dismissal. The conductor, however,
still lives and collects fare from Grant when
he can. Now, would it not save the Presi-
dential office from disgrace if General Grant
were furnished with a deadhead ticket over
all the roads in the country ? It would
end these discreditable squabbles with con-
ductors, whic h, although well enough in
the case of Mr. Grant three years ago, as
they will be two years after this, do not
exactly comport with the dignity that
should hedge a President of the United
