SORROW FU L.
Judge Williams, the Yankee candidate for
Judge of the supreme court of Pennsylvania,
continues in a bad way. As most people
know, he is suffering from an overdose of
repudiation. The certainty of his political
death is not a matter of conjecture.
This man assisted in giving rummy to
vertaia bonds issued for the improviment t f
his own section of country, and now has not
the common honesty to say that these bonds
Should have been paid. Ile would bite the
hand that fed him.
To cover up this villainy the supporters of
Williams would try to make the people be
lieve that Judge Sharswood entertained the
same notions on the subject of repudiation
as their nutmeg candidate. Judge Shars
wood decided that when a man borrows in
gold and agrees to repay in gold, that the
terms of the contract muht be complied
with ; in a word, that there must be No nE
-11:DIATION. What a contrast with the
Yankee-Williams doctrine that you need not
pay at all!
“Absurd and Criminal.”
The Pittsburg Chr o nicle, a Radical 4.4
paper, is unable to submit to all the vile ut
terances of its party. It quotes from Ow
nddress of F. Jordon, chairman of t be State
Committee, the following shamelets
sen
tenee :
"The Democratic party, with Judge Slt-t
-wood for its leader, and 'with Free Trade,
State Rights and Secession on its b ann er, is
again marshalling its hosts, and now sum
moning us to the field of political combat
on these same issues."
Disgusted with such infalllolls falsehoolb
put forth by its owu friends, the C,'hronac ic
Fays :
"It is insulting to the people of Pennsyl
vania to say in this judicial contest the Dem
ocratic party has secession inscribed on its
banner. We warmly support Judge Wil
liams in this contest, but we will not even
by silents.: tend our endorsement to t.o utter
ly a shamefully and unwarranted a charge
as the one above quoted. itis a signor bad
party detuoralization when such means arc
adopted to achieve bweem. It is utterly
wrong and utterly unnecessary. Such things
recoil agninst the men who 1 , 'dim them,
and cloud even an honest cause with suspi
cion. It is both absurd and criminal to say
that the right of secession will be an is•me
in the approaching election. The Republi
can party can go into a canvass upon it.v own
merits and upon actual issuei, without com
promising itself by these shabby devices,
and we trust no respectable in the.
party will lend itself to such a style of war
fare. It is a veritable Mexican business."
in_ It now turns out, through Republi
can sources, that all of the Andersonville
horrors were the result of the mature delib
eration of Bolt and the War Dcpartmcnt.—
Thirty thousand of our fathers, sons and
brothers left to die horrible deaths because
the authorities at Washington said they
were too feeble to be of service in our ranks
and it would cost money to maintain them
in hospitals, and to have exchanged man for
wan with rebels would aid the Southern
cause. For one whole year, Republican pa
pers published cuts diseriptive of the prison
pen, hung Win for his cruel treatment of
prisoners, and denounced the South for its
brutality, when it now turns out by the
showing of the highest authority, that the
South was anxious to get rid of them anti
exchange every man• If Stanton, and Holt,
and Butler can live through all this they
have charmed lives.
WILLIAM AND REPrIMATION.-It is
charged that Judge Williams was promi
nently identified with the repudiation move
ment in Alleghaney county, some years ago.
He was certainly an endorser of the Radical
State repudiation of the coin interest on
the State loans, in 18t4, and he is now as
surely an approver of the policy lately
adopted by the Radical State officials, of
paying six per cent. on a loan of three mil
lion dollars, to pay off an old loan of similar
amount, which bore interest at only five per
cent. and was taxable for State purposes.
Such views will not suit the people of this
State, who though they may be a "stolid
Dutch element," have too large a percent
age of "Dutch honesty" in their compo
sition, to repudiate honest debts—either in
dividual or public. They will repudiate
Judge Williams, of Connecticut.

NEGRO STATES.
pkt any decent "Republican" ever dream
that his party would make NEGRO
STATES of ten- States of this once free
white Republic? Incredible as it may
seem, this may hare teen done I Tennessee
is uow ruled by a Governor elected by Negro
votes. Every Southern State under the
rule of the "re-construction" Satraps, is
Demised, the greater portion of the whites
being disfranchised and the blacks, to a man,
made voters. Negroes sit on juries in those
States, to the exclusion of the most intelli
gent of the whites. This is the God's
truth, and no "Republican" i d ordinary in
telligence will attempt to aw!tly that it is
true. Is this what "Republicans" expect
ed at the hands of their party? Did they
vote for Negro States? Did the two hun
dred thotomsd white soldiers who went from
itnneyleania to risk their lives and their all
its the late, seta, fght for a BLACK EM
PIRE IN THE SOUTH ? Let these ques
tions be Tendered and answerod by the fair
minded and honest masses of the "Republi
can" party, before they cast their votesonce
more for the men who have betrayed them.

HEARTREND(Na ACCIDENT ON THE P. &
E. R. R.—On Wednesday afternoon last a
most heartrending neeitlent occurred on the
railroad, at the engine house, in Caketown,
and which will most likely result in at least
one death. An emigrant train was stand
ing on the side track waiting fin. the up
mail train to pass. Some of the emigrants
were on the opposite side of the main track,
at a market car, and hearing the whistle of
the coming train, but supposing it was the
whistle of' their own train, made haste to
get across to it. They were run into before
they noticed the coming train, the engine
striking down a German woman and two of
her chi'dmn. The poor woman is now lying
at the Augusta Hotel, terribly mangled, and
momentarily expected to die. The children,
who are lying also at the same house, are
not so badly hurt and stronghopes are enter
tained for their recovery. Strange to say
none of lost a limb. The woman is a
widow, and hail six children with her, and
was on her way to Illinois. The children
said they had an Lurie in Baltimore, who
was immediately al ;bed of the sad calamity.

DAN SICKT,T3, THE SATRAP. —Dan Sickles,
a few days a^o, organized a court-martial in
Charle4on, composed ofhis malerstrappers,
and arraigned betbre it the Captain of the
..tvata-r Pilot Boy, plying between that city
and Ileaufl,rt, upon the grave charge of re
fusing a state room to a negro woman who
wished to take passage aboard the boat.—
The satrap Pays that she (the negro woman)
was a “re.meetable female," and calls her
— .Miss Frances Itollitt," while he imputes
guilt to the captain, whom he puts upon his
trial fur the offence of refthir.:!, to rut a
negro in one of the best berths on his boat.
The Captain was found guilty by the shoal
der straps that composed the court, and
lined $250 as the penalty, which his imperial
highness, Pan Sickles, duly approved.—

Zar An old preache in 11 estern New
York, who was being urged by some of his
churchmen, during the political excitoment
in that State, last fall, to join the Itafl'ond
party said :
'co, my brethren, I can't join that party,
becawe all the Abolitionists in the country
are in it ; and Abolitionism. my brethren,
has done a wonderful sight of harm among
the people. It has hurt tunny shepherds
and , cattered ninny flocks. It got into the
Methodist church and broke that up. It
got in among the Presbyterians and split
them in two; and got into the Government
and broke the old Union to pieces. And,
my brethren. I don't know of anything it is
good for but to break up. If you have any
enmity against the ohl boy, I advise you to
semi Abolitionism into his dominions, and
it will break up hell itself in less than six
weeks.''
CLEANINO OUT THE STAULES.—GeneraI
Grant and the Secretary of the Treasury
have within two weeks, dismissed over 210
clerks, GO of whom were females. The Gen
eral has, since he took charge of the War
Department, also relieved about thirty gen
tlemen of their shoulderstraps, who had been
retained by Stanton around the War ollice
as ornaments and to bleed the Treasury.—
It is the ornamental soldiers who howl after
Grant, and those loyalists who fought NO
bravely during the war—ki suhstinsies. The

"Sr Every Radical in the Senate and
Howe of Representatives at Harrisburg, in
I e, t, voted in favor of the law repudiating
the faith of the Commonwealth pledged to
pay its interest in specie. Every Democrat
but one, voted against this "bold repudia
tion." As repudiation is the practice of
the Radicals when it is their interest to vio•
late solemn contracts, what securitr, in the
future, have bond-holders, or the holders of
any kind of securities, State or National?—
Their only hope is the election of such a
man as Judge Sharswood. Think of it,
bondholders, on your way to the polls on
the second Tuesday of next October.

Removal of Sheridan*
General Sheridan has at last boon relieved
of the command of the military district, and
General Thomas mit there in his stead.—
He is ordered to relieve General Hancock of
dip oomumind of' the Department of MM.
Skin, who ie transferred to Tennessee in
Thomas' Owe. The Presideet has done
right in removing Sheridan, and the only
tkult we have to find In the premises in,
that it was not dune long ago. /le was not
fitted to discharge such delicate duties as
those that devolved upon him in Louisiana
and Texas. He was too embittered against
the people, and enforced a harsh law with
too much severity. his conduct made it
appear that he was more anxious to please
the Radicals than assist to restore the coun
try. lie was too ready to make capital for
the Presidency—and his administration of
ahu law showed more of the partizan than
the soldier. His contumacy and insolence
toward the President merited a court mar
tial, and we are surprised that he was not
arrested months ago. His conduct obstruct
ed reonstruction. Ile can do little, if any,
hero► where he is going, nor can he manu
facture much politiesl capital. 'rho Radi
cals arc trying hard to make him a martyr,
but they will hardly succeed, The Presi
dent has disarmed one half their vengeance,
by replacing Sheridan with Thomas, an ac
cepted Radical.
This change is a good beginning—which
we h►►pe to see followed up by the removal
of Sickles and Pope, both of whom are ns
great tyrants ns Sheridan, without half his
reputation as a soldier.—L)uyleah>►rrn Drrno•

A IDangcrou• rolfcr.
The limlietil nre entering upon n fearful
experiment in their so•called reeonstruetion
policy. They are putting the negroem in
power in ten State.; of the 'Won, or one
third part, of the country. They are, by
military force, placing the whites in sulpe
lion to the blacks. There nrc about six
inillienn of white inhabitants in these States
to three milli o ns of negmes. The minority
an interior race, ignorant, and just emerging
from the bondsof plantation slavtry, are tor
cibly placed over the superior and intelli
gent white race, who are in the majority,
two to one.
It is a fearful experiment : for in the
history of the world, says a eotemporary,
the nogro has riot been able to govern a civ
ilized ix - immunity. Ile has flirlive thousand
years at least been in servitude or barbarism.
Ile has not advanced in civilization at all,
unless forced into it. This rave the Midi
cals are placing in power over six millions of
our fellow citizens of the South. It is a
fearful esperillent for our republican frrni
of government, but still more fearful, per
haps, fur the existence of the black race in
the Southern States, in considerable num
bers. for any great length of time. Brought
forcibly, by temporary and accidental pow
er, into antagonism with the white nee,
and placed over the latter, the result cannot
be such as the Radicals predict. Under
such circumstances, one of the races tullYt
yvield to the other and disappear, in the
to-tin, from that section the country ;
~;;, 1 when the Radicals tell the colored men
tbat the whites will go under and finally
succumb to negro domination. they are de
ceiving them and arc not their true friends.
The superior and more numerous class will
as certainly triumph in the end, are that the
laws of nature continue to exist, and this
attempt to crush out the white race of' the
South—to follow them vindictively—to dis
franchise them—to threaten them with con
fiscation and other dire evils—suppressing
their Legislatures, removing their Govern
ors and Judges. in order to secure negro su
premacy over thcm, must inevitably produce
a reaction, and very soon recoil upon, the
fortunes of the ignorant negroes. The re
sult cannot well be avoided ; and we do not
doubt that "extermination," following this
crazy attempt of the Radicals, will soon be
us palpably written upon the foreheads of
the colored race at the South, us it ever was
upon the red Indian or the North and the
gazette.

At last--' We greatest humbug of modern
bistory"—na he was styled by a not over
discreet 'edited, General U. S. Grant, has
defined Ms political atataa and been safely
delivered of en opinion. We congratulate
the General and the country upon the IWO•
woeful parturition, and bog for both father
and child the sympathy of a discriminating
public.
In another column we print in full the cor
respondence between the President and
Grant relative to the removal of Sheridan,
which resulted in the delivering of the Gen
eral's opinion, adverse to the removal of the
New Orleans satrap, and culminated in the
most pithy, pointed and sensible reply of
President Johnson. We rejoice that the
climacteric of bullying the Executive has been
reached, and that even now, late as it is, the
President has exhibited sufficient manhood
pluck, to take the bull by the horns and be
Cernumnder-in-Chief, Grant and the Rump
to the contrary, notwithstanding. While we
confess our gratificnt ion at the prompt man
ner in which the chief-magistrate has met
and decided the issue thus presented, we are
none the less pleased that it has been the
means of definitely boating and defining the
political whereabouts of Grant. Not that
individually, we have ever had a doubt upon
this question, or eared, to the extent or a
starved fig, what his opinions were ; but, for
the satisfaction of a few "matmliieturcrs of
public sentiment," who have been ''laying
pipe" for his nomination to the Preside/ley,
by the National Democratic Convention,
next year. We incline to the opinion that
the 17th of August letter, has settled that
question, as well as Grant, beyond even an
attempt at resurrection. The conclave of
New York politicians, bodied by 77ic
World newspaper, who for weeks ha ve been
persistently and insidunusly entleavitrilig t o
thwart the wishes of the untm.rs of the I h ,
moeney, by foisting a hitherto political non
entity upon them, have had, as Tlae Pena
end predicted a month ago, their hilr fi,r
their pains. Just what General Grant eX•
peetea to aecomplish by liksingular deli.nre
of Sheridan, it is Irni . isAibbi to de ar ly de,
termitic. It may be, possible that he really
desires to Le a candidate for Pre .iden tial lion
ors, and fearful of offending little Phil. takes
this method of conciliating him and his
friends. On the other hand, it may be sim
ply a fear of' results--a dread of the power
of the revolutionary mob, misnamed Con
gress. which makes the hero of the Wilder
ness "urge, earnestly urge," &e, the re,eind
ing the order removing the man at New Or
leans. In addition to these somewhat plaus
ible conjectures, as to his action intim prem
ises, we do not forget that the Hon. mem
ber from the 3(1 Illineisdistrict, Mr. Wash-
Inane, who ham been health seeking in Eu
rope, huts returned home in the very nick of
time. This individual's boast for some years,
has been that he made Grant, and as he

full of' impeachment, it must necessarily be
expected that his protege Grant will obey or
ders. flaying exhibited him throughout the
West in much the same manner that Cum

or gorrilla, it is not unlikely that his appear
ance last week in Washington, had something
to do with the earnest plea of' the COW mand
er-in-Chief, in favor of Sheridan. Be the
cause What it may, Gen. Grant is politically
disposed of, and out of the ring. The radi
cals have managed to create sufficient preju
dice against him to prevent his being the
nominee of their convefition, while we think
Gant his endorsement of Sheridan, and the
empty twaddle contained in the annexed
paragraph, will effectually cure Democrats
of any "hankering - utter him :
Gent nil Sheri lan hast affirmed his eivi
duties tivithfully awl intelligently. His r e .
mold will only he regarded as an effort to
defeat the laws of Congress. It will he in
terpreted by the unreconstructed element in
the South—those who did all they could to
break up this government by arms, and now
wish to be the only clement consulted as to
the method of estoring order—as a triumph.
It will embolden them to renewed opposition
to the will of the loyal masses, believine
that they have the Executive with them."
The text of the above has proved too much
for even The World, and we nre gratitieil too
Fee it, promptly repudiate Uranl and Moan,

The President is evidently of the opinion
that forbearance with him has ceased to be
a cardinal virtue. If he will only act com
mensurate with the manner in which he
talks, his administration, thus fitr, only a re
proud', may end in a blaze of' glory. 11, as it
is rumored, Grant refuses to execute the or
ders removing Sheridan and Sickles, let him
order the bellicose inli.idual under arrest,
and place at the head of the army a General
instead of' a half-fledged politician. Of
course, Congress upon reassembling will
impeach him, and for this let the Presi
dent be prepared. Let him see to it
that the national forts and armories are in
charge of the right officers, and then do as
he should long since have done, declare the
rump a revolutionary mob, conspiring against
the peace and dignity of' the country ; ar
rest every radical member for treasonable
practices and send them, until they can be
tried, to the ease-mates of Fort LaFayette.
Then issue a proclamation of general amnes
ty to the South, invite them to send their
Senators and representatives to congress ;
dissolve the military departments, declare
the war ended and the Union restored.—
Should this programme not prove acceptable
to the jacobins, let. them, if they dare, ap
peal to the bayonet and cannon. We in
cline to the opinion, that under the circum
stances, then existing, they could speedily
be accommodated. Clinton Democrat.
