The negro is a man of consequence, says the HarriMburg Telegrapli. Upon him, ap parently, haugs the life of the Democratic party. Without LIui it would have no breath li-ft in it it wou!J die. As long as the "gentleman from Africa" can be kept prom inently before the public in political contests, the Democracy may manage to eke out a mis erable existeni.' It has been approaching the last stage of consumption iorsame time, and as soon as the loth amendment bhall have been adopted by three-fourths of the Slates, and the negro's political status fixed and de termined beyond the possibility of change, at least for years to come, we shall expect to see the old, and now tottering party, that has so long kept up its vitality by feeding, as it were, upon the carcass of their sable brethren, gooff "to the bad" at a galloping pace. There is much truth in the remarks of Senator Morton, of Indiana, made during the discussion of the suffrage amendment. "The Democratic party," he said, '"for more than twenty years has lived upon the negro question. It has been its daily food, and if the negro question shall now be with drawn from politics the Democracy, as a party, will literally starve to death. We need not, therefore.be surprised to find them resisting this constitutional amendment, which will forever withdraw the subject from politic, and will strike down that prejudice to which the Democratic party has appealed for years. The Democratic party has not for years appealed to the reasons of the people, but it ha3 appealed to their prejudices upon the subject of race. It has sought, and to some extent obtained, power upon that sub ject. It is still following the fortunes of slavery after slavery is dead." Tweuty-four States, including Indiana, have already ratified the amendment to which Mr. Morton referred. Twenty-eight is the number required to make it a part of the fundamental law of the land. Vermont and Rhode Island are sure to give their as sent when their Legislatures meet next fall. The act for the reconstruction of Virginia, Mississippi and Texas, requires the. ratifica tion of the amendment as preliminary to their full restoration into the Union ; and Georgia, when purged of its disqualified legislative members, will be added to the lust of ratifying States making thirty, or two more than enough fi r the adoption of the amendment. Thus it is obvious if Mr. Morton's prognostications are correct, that the days of the Democracy, as a party are numbered that they literally starved to death on the negro. Poor fellows ! we really pity them, and hope that they may have the lenefit of a decent Interment nest fall. Jlatqtiia.tcat in jieare. Don't Like Hancock. The Democrat ic uiovemeut in favor of Gen. Hancock for Governor is meeting with bitter opposition from the friends of Judge Packer, Gu. Cass, and others. They say that if Hancock ac cepts a Gubernatorial nomination, he will do it solely as a stepping stone to Presiden tial honors, in case he succeeds in an elee tion. . That undoubtedly would be so if Hancock should he elected bat there is no danger of such a contingency. ' If the Dem ocrats couldn't carry the State three years ago, and last year, with the aid of forged naturalization papers and the monstrous frauds in Philadelphia, Luzerne and other counties, they will not be able to succeed next Pill, uiljr th nur Ujg'utry Liw no matter who is the candidate. Chase. Chief Justice Chase is still suf fering with the disease of Presidency on the brain. Die is playing the game of Johnson, with more adroitness to be 6ure, but not likely to prove more effective. Poor Chase ought to know that his grand opportunity for a Presidential nomination passed away forever with the assembling of the last Democtatic National Convention. Ho will nevermore be a prominent candidate with either of the two great parties. He has for feited the respect and confidence of the Re publican party, and as for the Democrats, they have too many candidates of their own without taking up with our cast off politi cians. A SreciE Tating State. The State of Missouri will hereafter pay the interest of its State debt in gold coin, and accepts the obligation to pay the principal also, when due, in real money. The State Treasurer asserts that, after the payment of all the in tirest accruing this year.and payable in Juty and January next, there will remain one million of dollars in the Treasury. The new Constitution of the State compels the as sessment'of a tax or two and a half mills on the dollar for the public debt. This tax will yield, for 1SG9, nearly two millions of dol lars -enough, after paying all the interest in coin, to add half a million to the, Siuking Fund. Florida Ratifies the Amendment. Information has been received at Washing ton that the Fifteenth Amendment t the Constitution of the United States was ratifi ed by both Houses of the Florida Legisla ture on Tuesday last.

Judge Sharswood The Registry Law." , Do men ever reflect upon the singular fact that every attempt to freveut fraudu lent voting comes from a Republican Legis lature, and must inevitably encounter oppo sition from the Democratic party ? Why is this? That the worst class of our popula tion votes with the Democrats we all know, but it is possible that 'here are not enough honest men in that party to break the mo notonous continuity of opposition to such benib'cent legislation? Or does member ship in the Democratic praty, and association with its members, necessarily deaden or de stroy all sense of shame, and all feeling of honesty? It f-ecais almost impossible that such can be the effect of belonging to that party : and yet it is impossible to account for their wild fury over every attempt to se cure a fair election on any other theory. In 1SC7 the Republican Legislature pass ed a bill to prevent frauds on the ballot box. The Democracy at ones made up a case to contest its "constitutionality," and a deci sion annuling the law was pronounced by a Supreme bench composed, in part, of men of such social respectability as JudgeThomp son and Judge Sharswood. That two such men could be brought to hold an attempt to put down fraud fraud of the most far reaching and dangerous character uncon stitutional, must bear out the hypothesis that villiany and "Democracy" have become synonomous terms. At the scssiou of the last Legislature another law was passed with the same object ; and it was carefully framed to meet the objections of the Demo cratic Supreme Judges urged against its predecessor, but it cannot escape their par tisan venom. , Another case has been made up involving the constitutionality of the law of last winter,-and it has been on trial be fore Judge Sharswood, sitting in XiniPrius. The remembrance of this same Judge in the same court Taanufacturing a thousand voters a day by fraud, must clearly foreshadow the fate of the registry bill now before him. If any doubts existed as to what Shars wood would do they are quickly dissipated on reading the report of this proceeding had before his Honor. By an understand ing of counsel the case was not to be brought up until the court sat in Lane, so that the case might receive the consideration due to its iniportarce from a full beuch. In ac cordance with this tacit understanding the counsel for the defense were unprepared, and declined to participate formally in the trial we beg pardon the proceedings. At one stage of these, the arrangement was al luded to, and the Judge given politely to understand that the preparations for trial were incomplete, and the hint was thrown out with a professional delicacy that the present farce was incapable of anything more serious than forestalling the judge ment of the court, aud prejudicing the case from a professional standpoint. These mild . and delicate reminders of counsel seem to have disturbed the judge in an extraordinary degree, so much so indeed, that he forgot hie politeness as well as his place. He retorted insolently that he would sit, and he would hear the cause : he would do his "duty," and he would "ac cept thd responsibility," and more swagger of same kind. From aJI which we can easi ly gather that Judge Sharswood has per mitted this case to be stolen before a single judge, himself, the worst man in our knowl edge to do justice where politics arc involv ed, out of its regular course, against the ar rangement of counsel, and before a tribunal bent on a settled course and a partisan de cision before tLa trial commenced. Let Mr. Justice Sharswood go on. The' full bench will soon convene ; and the high tone of that dangerous old traitor to his country may yet provoke the power of the Legislature to impeach him, and bring on his head the merited disgrace of standing to answer as a culprit lor some of the out rages he has been guiltyof on the hoolsack. The Conscience Fcnd. Despite the popular belief to the contrary, such things as consciences have abiding places in not a few American hearts. Since IS61, the Uni ted Stages Treasury has received in moneys returned, through the agency of troubled consciences the sum of $80,238,90, and the amount is increasing at the rate of $3,000 per month. These statistics develope the fact that many men are dishonest when a chance to be so is put in their way, but are not so by nature. After the theft has been committed, or the wrong perpetrated, they have that within them which ceases not to cry out till restitution be made, and the mind left easy. Georgia. The Georgia Supreme Court has at last deeid d that negroes are eligible to office in that State. If this decisionhad been rendered a year ago, it would have been much better for Georgia. As the case stands she will be required to commence the pro cess of reconstruction over again,and to take a little more trouble than before of comply ing with the terms of the law to which she is amenable. A Discovert. A brother editor has dis covered that his own and A. T. Stewart's income for 1S6S, together, amounts to 3, 019,213, and thinks of proposing to Stew art to divide even, or to.s a copper for the whole; if he refuses, the editor will have to he content with the last three figures to rep resent his share. - Death ok Mr. Ramond. Hon. Henry J. Rtmoud, editor of the Times, died at Bis residence in New York, on Thursday morn ing, June 18th, of apoplexy. HisMeath has created a profound impression in all of ficial aud political circles throughout the couutry. "They all enjoyed the initiation ceremony mto the mysteries of the "side degree." Altonua Tribune. Certainly; and, we opine", our neighbors will often think of that "sell" with an equal ly pleasing and side-splitting sensation. Judge Sharswood, of the Supreme Court, sitting at Nisi Prius, has delivered an opin ion declaring the new registry law of this State unconstitutional. In a town up in New Hampshire, two men own a fish nurcery which con tains 4S,Oo0 fish one half trout and the other half salmon. Importance of a Trade. The first chapter of Horace Greeley's work on political economy is taken up with enforcing the doctrine that labor is neces sary to the comfort and happiness of man kind. Ic would hardly seem incumbent on so able a writer to spend so much time on so clear a point. And yet the individual man is very apt to undervalue it, and, in order to avoid work, to work ten times as hard after all. Thus we have men living by their wits, and making a miserable living into the bar gain; others habitually waiting for some thing to turn up, while their condition is steadily taking a downward turn ; and oth ers, still vindicating the soundness of the old maxim about those who are "jacks at all trades and good for nothing." The worst of it is, however, that a thriftless course in these sharp, competing times, is a vicious course. We are reminded of this serious fact by a statement lately made in the re port of the Prison Association that, out of 13,4 prisoners in the penitentiaries - of thirty States, iu 1SG7, no less than 77 per cent. more than three-fourths had not learned a trade. Such a fact speaks for itself. If idleness is bad company, if intemperance tells di rectly upon the criminal lists of the coun try, then the want of steady employment aud of regular business habits, such as are given by any good trade, are equally mark ed in their vicious tendency both upon indi vidual and society at large. It is not ne cessary that the old custom of prolonged apprenticeship should be revived, although it was a thousand times better than the hel ter-skelter manner in which boys are now apt to come up. ,But the sentiment should be impressed upon the community that ev cry youth, of wealthy, as well as of poor parentage, should be trained for some regu lar business in life. Even if he leavcj it when he comes to manhood, the sound hub its of steady industry aud the physical train ing he has acquired would always be useful; aud then he will have the security of some thing reliable that he can fail buck upon in seasons of adversity, from which no calling or condition in life can ever be exempt. Uy trade we do not mean the few mechanical employments which used to be recognized as such, but any of the immense number of legitimate pursuits into which modern soeie ty is divided. The historian Prescott, when he deliberately set 'apart the years for pre paring himself to write history, was as tru ii-., . ly learning a traue as any young man in a carpenter's shop. If more could be found to emulate his thoroughness, the world would be the better for it. i he Irade OF the Lakes. By statis tics given in the Detroit 7W.it appears that duting the year 1863 there were 131 steam ers, 172 propellers, 267 tugs, 1,642 sailing vessels, and fifty-seven barges plying on the lakes. The aggregate tonago was 630,394 and the total value was 23,053,000. Of this fleet rather more than a fifth in number of sail and in value,' but less than a fifth of the tonnage was Canadian. In comparison with similar statistics ,'for 1S56, it appears that the trade has just about doubled in amount and value in the twelve years. It is not diCcult to see, says the New York Bulletin, that it is capable of still further and almost indefinite expansion. The agri cultural and mineral resources of the West, though already pouring out their wealth with such profusion, are yet comparatively undeveloped. -Expeditious water transpor tation will always be cheaper than land freights. Canals, cut-offs, and other im provements will soon lessen the distance and the time required for bringing the products of the West to market, and it is not too much ,to expect that while the rail ways will have all the business they tan do, many times, the present lake tonnage will still find coustant and profitable employ mcnt in the same occupation. How it is to be Done. A plan of meeting the Indian difficulties is said to have been determined upon by the Indian Bu reau. All of the tribes who will settle upon reservations will be aided and nrotpr-t ed, while those who will not will be left to military supervision. A majority of the tribes cave already agreed to accept a set tled manner of lifo. When they have been located and supplied they will be held re sponsible for murders, thefts and offenses in a collective capacity, as were the old Saxon hundreds. Their sense of responsibility will be quickened by withholding their an nuities in cases of wrong doing until restitu tion is made and the offenders arc niinieiir.fi In Kansas all Indians will be classed &a hos tile who do not move on to the reservations. If this system can be carried out it will put an end to the Indian trnuhlra hv im proving the condition of the Indians. Their protection ironi the white vagabonds is one of the conditions of the system, and the vil liny of these fellows has done more to cause trouble than all others combined. Tho be ginningsthat have been made in this policy nave operated so happily that we are hopeful of all that remains. Masonic Knights Templar. The semi centennial anniversary of the founding of Ot. Johns Lomandery No. 4, Masonii Knights Templar, whicU.took place in Thil adelphia oo Tuesday !at,was a trrand afiair. in ceremony and show perhaps equal to the lioson Jubilee. A largo number of Com manderies from all parts of the enunrrv were-present, and Philadelphia put on her holiday clothes and looked gorgeous an pleasant. The origin of the Order c Knights Templar, says a coteuinorarv.l.its back to the time of the Crusaders, when an organization of its founders was 'effected to kee p open to Christian travelers the roa leading from Joppa ' to Jerusalem. The cardinal virtues of the Knight Templar are the keeping of Lis obligations, the purity of his life in all his relations, and the redress of wrongs at all times and under all circum stances. Like the main body of the order, they are enjoined to practice all those acts of charity aud benevolence for which the Masons are so justly celebrated. It is said that the first crocodile sepn in this country, was recently captured in Flor ida. He had probably just run over from Africa to visit his relatives, the alligators.

Serranoi Eegent of Spain. . jtlarshal Francisco Serrano, Duke de la 4"orre, recently chosen Regent of Spain by tn Cortes, took the oath of office yesterday the 18th. The Marshal is well advanced in years, having been born about the beginning of the present century." He acquired a var ied military experience iu the war of independence-, and gradually rose to the highest rank in the arrajT of Spain. In 1S43, when he assisted in bringing about the fall of Es partero, he first took a prominent part in the political troubles of the country. After the restoration of the Queen mother to the throne, he entered into a coalition with oth ers to oven hrow Olozaga. Soon after the marriage of Queen Isabella, in 1846, he acquired an influence over the royal mind which occasioned differences between the King consort and herself, and caused some scandal. The Ministry of the Duke de So totuayer, which attempted to destroy his in fluence, was overthrown by him, while that of M. de Salamanca, which he supported, yielded to the storm of public indignation which assailed it. After this Serrano turn ed liberal, and just before the accession to power of NarvaeS, accepted the Captaincy General of Orariada. Having been impli cated in a rising at Saragossa in 1 854, he was exiled, but returned during the revolu tion of July in that year, and became an active supportes of the O'Donnell and Es puero Cabinet. In the rapture which fol lowed between those two, he sided with the former, and having been nominated Captain-General of New Castile an appoint ment which placed Madrid in hia power in the coup d'etat of 1855 he played into O'DonucIl's hands, and in the same year was created Duke de la Torre. In 1857 he was sent as Ambassador to the Court of France. Iu 1859 he was appointed Director and Col onel General of artillery,. and in June, 1SC5, Captain General of Madrid. The promi nent part which he has recently taken as one of the leading spirits of the revolution which expelled Isabella II. from tho throne is still fresh in the minds, of the people. The Caspian sea. is dotted with islands from which enormous quantities of naptha are yearly taken. Karly this month, owing to subterranean disturbances, the naptha wells on these islands overflowed, and the inflammable substance spread over the entire surface of the lake. It accidentally took fire, and for forty-tight hours burned furi ously over a surface of many thousands of square miles. The inhabitants of the surrounding country imagined that the end of the world was at hand. The fish iu the lake were entirely destroyed, and for miles around vegetation was parched, and the country made like a d jsert. The same phe nomena is recorded by Herodotus. The Grand Lodge of Good Templars of Pennsylvania, which met at Scrautou last week, was the largest assemblage of the or der that has ever taken place iu the State.

Dr. Clark treats no cafe unless he cm devrib. tbe disease and its fympkims Ki.kttit interroga ting his patient. Dr. Clark will treat no Chronic I'iee vu'ittt he can explain its character to tlie complete aud perfect satisfaction of the patient e.un.ineJ. Au the Dr. would here most positively ftuic. tbst U desires no pationts to take tre.Huieut trom tim, unlets they are fully nd completely utisEal with his consultations and cxauiimlioLS, which are made free from charge. Dr. Clarai bases his practice upon tho incontro vertible law of Nature. First Tbst evi-r)- caoso has an effect. Second That diseases are cause, producing effects or symptoms, and tLat erery disease has its own peculiar effects or jjoiploni, which if properly and thoroughly un'le'rsloud by the examining Physician, can be clearly pointed out to the complete satisfaction of tbe patient .x amined. Dr. Clark's method of diagnosing or npl.iirir.f diseases and their symptoms is only the proceu of reasoning from cause to effect and hn brei acquired by thorough literary and uieJical sal ture. and also by an almost unlimited practii-en every form of disease to which the human syjfca is liable. By this process of reasoning the Dr. la quired a reputation and success in IreatiDdis eases seldom attained.
