It is said, that tlrro arc now 1.73S bills on the Rou.-e E!e at HarrLslurg, and 1,723 on tliis Senate Sie. Hon. Jmlgc BuSngton, of Kittannin?, has resigned the I'rec-ideut Judgeship of that judicial district, on account of ill health. P. II. Leslie has Leen nominated hy the Democrats in Kentucky as the'r candidate fjr Governor. Of course, a nomination is equivalent to an election in that State. The following requires no comment : "The Chicago tax collector has notified the city council that he would set! the grave cf Steph en A. Douglas -unless a special assessment of $2,100 was paid on it." Notwithstanding his declination in ad vance, it is said that Hon. B. F. Wade will cept the nominatiou for Governor of Unto, if tendered to turn. His numerous friends wili be pleased to hear this. The House at Harrisbur passed a concur rent resolution to adjourn on the 6th. If the Senate concurs, there undoubtedly will be some bad laws pasnd, as tTiere are still over seventeen hundred bills on file.. Asa Packer snd Daniel J. Worrell have been appointed, by the President, the Com missioners of Pennsylvania in connection wit1- the celebration of the centennial an niversary of American independence.

There aro rumors of extensive whisky frauds in I?altinore,invoIving a loss of over a million dollars to the Government. They were committed in ?C7 and 1S-68, under Johnson's adff.inistratioii, and are Baid to implicate a number of his officers. The subject is undergoing investigation. 1 he Baltimore American- saj s : The Dem ocratic party has learned nothing by adver fity. During all the time it has been iri a hopeless minority it has cherished the same evil purposes, the same perverse and rcao tional propensities, the same hostility to the inarch of free iustitut ious, the same undy ing necrophobia, the simc proclivity to dis integration. The New Hampshire defeat after all has its compensations. The Legislature is Re publican and there will le a Republican Governor. From the latest returns it ap pears that the whole number of Represen tatives claiming ta Le elected is 32!), of which 166 are Republicans,.-""1! lo.J Demo crats and Labor Reformers. The Senate stands five Republicans and five Democrats, with two vacancies. An examination of the Tennessee, the steamship that eaviicd the San Duminpo Commissioners, and about which so much has been said, h:is disclosed the fact that the steamship was entirely seaworthy and as staunch and safe a vessel for the duty as could have been selected. It is gratifying that this invest ijtion has been made, and the charges thai have been made thus cm phatkally contradicted. After all there is jiroprcss in Kentucky. At the Circuit Court of Garrard county h'st week negroes were repeatedly culled and heard as witnesses, without .the slightest opposition being made by the oprOsing counsel, or by Judge Fox. who presided. The Judge 1s a Democrat, but he respects tha Fifteenth amendment. Tiiere is a chance that even in Keutueky common scuse tiiaj yet prevail. ' Senator Sehurz was serenaded in St. Louis on Tujsday night of lust week, by the citizens, "inespective of party,'' it is sa:d. The demonstration hid its origin with a few lKtmocrats and "Liberal" Re publicans, and was intended as a compli ment to the "independent" course of the Senator. Politics are getting more and ' more mixed in Missouri, and it wili be some time before it can be accurately determined who is who. On Mond -y, May 1st,' the act of Congress repealing all special tuxes, licences, etc., ex cept on distiiled spirits, malt liquors, ai;d tobacco, went into effect. The reduction of the receipts of internal fevcuue by these chaDces will amount to between thirty and iotty millions of dollars. And thus the Re publican party, in pursuing its policy of economy, is able to lilt the burdens of taxa tion from rT the people and at tUe same time reduce the public debt nearly $10,000, 000 per month. The Press says : The recent Democratic Congressional address is den luneed no less by the rebel Democratic press than it is by the Republican. It is particularly distaste fjl to the Ku Klux newspapers of the South. They cannot brook the i lea of be iug told by those whom they consider as their friends and sympathizers to keep quiet ond to restrain their niurdeious passion. They charge the men who signed tho ad-drc-s, and the papers that endorse it. a. fol lowers in the footsteps of .Radicalism a high compr.a.er.t, that wili no doubt be np-1'ieciated. Proclamation hj the President. Vashisgtox, May 4. the President has issued the following proclamation : The act of Congress entitled "An act to enforce the provisions of the Fourteenth amendment to the Constitution of the Uni ted States, and for other purposes," ap proved April 20, A. D., 1S71, being a law of extraordinary public importance, I con sider it my duty to issue this, my proclama tinnTkaUing the attention of the people of the LTnited States thereto, and enjoining upon all good citizens, and especially upon public officers, to be zealous in the enforce ment thereof, and warning all persons to abstain from committing any acts thereby prohibited. The law of Congress applies to all parts of the ITnited States, and will be enforced everywhere to the extent of the powers vested in the Executive. But inas much as the necessity therefor is well knfwn to have been caused chiefly by persistent violation of the rights of citizens of the United States by combinations of lawless and disaffected persons in certain -localities lately the theater of insurrection and mili- i tary conflict, I do particularly exhort the people ia those parts of the country to sup press ail such combinations by their own voluntary efforts through the agency of lo cal laws, and to maintain the rights of all citizens of the United States, at.5 to secure to all such citizens the equal protection of the laws. Fully sensible of the responsibility im posed by the act of Congress to which pub lie attention is now called, and reluctant to cull into exercise any extraordinary power thereby conferred upon me, except in cases of imperative necessity, I do, nevertheless, deem it my duty to make known that I will not he.-itafe to exhaust tlw power thus ves ted in the Executive whenever or wherever it shall become necessary to do so for the purpose -of securing to ill citizens of th United States the peaceful enjoyment of the rights guaranteed to them by the Con stitution and laws. It is my earnest wish that pcaca and cheerful obedwjace to lsw may prevail thro' out the land, and that all traces of our late unhappy civil strife may be speedily remov ed. These ends can be easiiy reached by acquiescence in the results of the conflict now written in our Constitution, and by the due and proper enforcement of equal, just and impartial laws in every part of our country. The failure of local communities to furnish such means for the attainment of results so earnestly desired. imposes upon the National Government the duty of putting forth all its energies for the projection of citizens of every race and color, and for tlve tesloration of peace and order throughout llie country." In testimony whereof I hav hereunto set my hand caused the soil of the United States to be aflixed. Done at the city of Washington this fourth dy of May, in the year of our L rd, one thousand eight hun dred nd scventyoue, and of the independ ence of the United States the ninety-fourth. By the President: U. S. Grant. Hamilton Fish, Secretary of State. The Schceppe Case. Some tillie ago a bill rrnrt frnmoA in ill House requiting the Supreme Court of the tate to review the lawnd evidence in the case of Dr. Paul Sohmppe. Thecommittee to whom it was referred has repotted upon it adversely. This leaves the case exactly where it stood alter the prisoner had been found guilty arid sentence pronounced upon him, requiring only the appointment of the day of execution and the signature of the Governor to bis death warrant to inflict upon him the extreme penalty of the law. But it is not probable that he wiil be exe cuted duriug Governor Geary's term of of lice. It is n;nv some two years since the ailcged aiurder was committed, while every proceiding wh'di, since tlrj trial, has been had with relerreticu to the case, has etily sved to deepen the uncertainty vh ether Miss Stcinecke wui really murdered at all. The diselination of the Governor to hang him is as natural as his refusal to paidou ht.ii is, under the eon. plicated aspects of Mic case, proper. In the absence of any new developments, (and investigation appears to have exhausted itself upon the subject )this diselination will naturaliy increase w ilh time, while it is quite certain that his successor in office will not lie likely to assume a re spo! sibility which be would not undertake. It is therefore sale to assume, says the Com ,,crr:(d, that Dr. Schceppe will not be hung i at all. Neither, unless the fact of his in- nocenee is established beyond question, does I it seem desirable that he should be par j doncd. Ho may neither deserve to be hang ed nor pardoned, but as the law now stands J the hands of the Governor are tied, so far i as any middle course of Action is concerned, j 13 hanging him be might possibly execute I an innocent man. and by pa.-donwg him he I might possibly liberate a guilty one both j errors, to be nvoided. It seems proper, j therefore, that tbi Legislature should pass a law, investing the Executive with discre tionary powers in this aud similar cases conferring upon the Governor the power to com unite death sentences tD imprisonment for life, or a term of years, according as the facts in each case might warrant the exer cise of such clem anew Connecticut. The initial proceedings relative to the late election in Connecticut, in the Legislature, resulted favorably to the Republicans. The Democracy made an ef fort to refer the investigation to the Judi ciary committee and the Supreme court, but they were outvoted, and a resolution sub mitting the subject to the Committee on Canvass was adopted, thus insuring a full investigation in conneetiou with the errone ous returns. The Democracy ct ouce raised the cry of "unconstitutional," upon the an nouncement of this determination on the part of the Republican members of the Legislature. We '.bought this hypocritical cry was dead long ago, but it seems the De mocracy still cling to it with as much fervor as they did in the days ot the rebellion. They are unable to see aiithitix as constitu tional, unless it liids treason and fraud. The recent local elections in Indiana re sulted almost invariably in Republican suc cess.
