ERIE, PA, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, AUGUST 31, 1865
There's a land far away mid the stars we are
told,
Where they know not the morrows of life;
Where the pure waters wander than' valleys
of gold,
And life is a treasure sublime;
'Tie the land of our Gad, 'lie the homa-of the
soul,
WhereairpLef eplendor eternally
Where the weyweary traveler roaches Mu goal'
Oa the evergreen mom:rains of life.
Onr raze cannot soar to that beautiful land
Bet our visions have told of its bliss, •
And our souls by the pie from its gardens
are final
When we faint in the deserts of this.
And - we sometimes have longed for its holy
repose,
When our spirits were torn with, temptations
and woes.
And we've drank from the tide of the river
- that Bows
From the evergreen mountains of life.
O ! the stars never tread the blue heavens at
ide,
But we think where the ransomed have trod,
And the day never smiles from her palate of
light
But we feel the bright smiles of our God.
We are travelinz homeward, thro' changes and
gloom,
a kingdom where pleasures unchangingly
bloom,
And our guide is the glary that shines through
the tomb,
Fromo the evergreen mountains of life.
We place before our readers, this week,
the following accounts of the recent so
called election in Kentucky. If it were
possible for an Abolitionist to blush, we
should suppose that these recitals would
at once bring the hectic flush to his face.
We have denounced them until our breath
has become exhausted. We simply place
them on record now for reference, for
future generations to see how debased the
American people of this generation bad
become, to allow such things to pass un
noticed and uncondemnecL Read the
following authentic statements. Kr.
Robert H. Hall, a voter in Covington for
about thirty-five years, a law-abiding
man, never conscious of having "aided
or a betted the Southern Confederacy in
any way." proceeded, during the late elec
tion in Kentucky, to deposit his vote. He
illustrates in these words
WIIAT Tats ZIACTIONS SIAM IN KENTUCKY.
"As I proceeded toward the polls, I
was stopped by two soldiers, one on my
right and, the other on my left, and an
officer in my rear, when the soldier on
Wy right told me that I could not vote
here, and I must go away. I told•them I
would submit my vote to the judges and
let them decide .on it. They said no, I
could not do it—they were before the
judges. I toldthem I knew of nothing I
had done to prevent my voting, when one
of them said my family had rejoiced at
President Lincoln's death. I told hint it
was not so, and I was willing to be sworn
and answer any questions on the subject.
I wanted to go to the judges and let them
swear and question me. The officer and
soldier both told me I could not go to the
judges, and I must leave the ground. Ac
cordingly, I did so. I have been told of
many other cases of the same kind, which
you will hear about in due time." The
Sheriff of Fayette county also says:
" A military force occupies both voting
places in the city, and have arrested three
men, one for voting, and two for being in
the hurt House intending to vote. There
upon the officers of the election in the
precinct decided to go on with .the elec
uon under military dictation. The sheriff
of the precinct was arrested and taken to
headquarters while in the discharge of his
duties. The citizens stand in front of the
polls, and indicate to the soldiers those
woo are not entitled to vote, and all such
as are pointed out are not allowed to pre
sent themselves to the judges."
TUN itamer arrwux SAC VOTER AND Ti 6
The correspondent of a western paper
says " There were never such outrages
committed oa the face of the earth as the
action of the military at the polls on Hon- .
day. The election} of every Republican
by these villainou practices is to be cot
tested, and initiatory steps have been
taken. It can be proved on oath that
names of Democratia voters were placed
on a list and given to the military, who
refused to let any man come to the polls
whose name was on there lista. A. Demo
crat desiring to vote requested to see the
judges and be sworn, and then, after
making a full statement, if he was refused
he would retire. The military replied that
they stood between the voter and the
judges, and ordered him to leave. A
large number insisted upon their rights
and were arrested, and are now lying on a
military prison. Again. Democratic judges
and clerks appointed by the county courts
were dragged out of the room where the
votes were taken by the military and or
dered to leave, anctßepublicans placed in
their stead. Two men named Mc Sadden
and Graciana, at Cold Springs, in Camp.
bell county, offered to vote, but were
stopped by the military, taken to a tree,
and their thumbs tied up to limbs until
evening and then released. These men
had served full terms in the Federal ser
vice, but were Democrats. In Newport,
Sheriff Hayman was ordered from the
polls, where he was stationed in the per
formance of his duty. I could give' you
one hundred similarinstances, the tames
of all being obtained to sworn statements.
All that „was required to bring into use the
military power was to prescribe a man
and hunt him out, and he went under
sure. In the Lexington district, and in
deed all over the State, this i n famous con•
d uc t, took place. In some of the precincts
to such a high hand was this carried that
the judges closed the polls. All these
outrages were known to Smith and other
Abolition candidates. and were encour
aged by them."
NOV ?SC AILILITION ILLIGIITT WILII Xi= rr
The Louisville Desax-rat of August 9th,
says: "This city contains a voting popu

tions free. We heard a great deal about
conducting the election .aooording to the
laws of this state, and the military prom
ised to sae to it. But the laws of this State
do not; provide that the military shall
have - Anything to do in the case. It does
not provide that voters shall be warned
away from the polls and arrested, if, in
the judgment of the military, they have
not a right to vote. The law provides
suitable penalties for its violation, and
allows only their infliction after convic
tion. The military order, moreover,
warned men from. the polls not disfran
chised by the laws of this State. The at
tempt of Congress to prevent military in
terference in elections, was plainly violat
ed, for every scheme of intimidation was
practiced and had its effect. Bat we are
getting used to these things. Free elec
tions we hardly expect. The pretext of
disloyalty hides all these sins. Men fear
to vote because disloyal. The same ex
cuse for disorganizing law and usurping
power will do in all time to dome. A GO
cleat reply to all that is, that the laws
provide an adequate remedy, and usur
pations of power are crlmacquite as great
as those of disloyalty. In fact'. What else
is so disloyal? In this city, on' Monday,
all appliances that usually accompany
unscrupulous means were used. The
radicals were organized, had plenty of
money, apparently, had plenty of hacks
and ambulances, and voters were citizens

they drummed up a little over four thous
and. General Roane overran his ticket
about' six hundred.• Oa the legislative
ticket the Democrats_ were beaten only
about a thousand, while General //amain's
majority is over two thousand six hun
dred. The result is, however, not the sen
timent of this city, given without fear or
favor; but just such a result as such ap
pliances can bring about anywhere. We
are reminded that this State is under
martial law and the hint is that military
discretion is supreme, and not responsible
to any law of the federal government. To
this no reply is necessary.A.lf martial law

DEMOCRATS NAVE TALI[ HANDS TIED AND
TRES ROUND SILTY THEIR RACKS TO TILLS
A.ND TLTTOOLD
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Le
-7 writing from Covington. says : "We
are informed by one of the sufferers, (a man
who, for attempting to vote, was tied to a
tree four hours aid Inhumanly tattooed,)
of same of the means employed to carry
the election in Campbell county, on Mon
day. Officers and soldiers in the United
States uniform were stationed at the polls
at every voting place in the county, and,
in full co-operation with the Abolition
party, took control and directed who
should vote and who should not. Many
of the best citizens, who purposed to vote
the Democratic ticket, were ordered away,
and actually driven from the polls at the
point of the bayonet. At the Cold Spring
Precinct, men were assaulted, seized - end
their hands tied behind them, and then
they were bound with their backs to trees.
Our informant was so held, and suffered
in that condition from 8 o'clock in the
morning until about 7 o'clock in the even•
ing. (except about thirty minutes respite
at noon.) not only suffering all the pain
and agony of such a cxmfinement,And the

of the Abolition partisans, and the repeat
ed cursing' and coarse abuse of the cap
tain in command on that day at the elec
tion precin:t. These infamous.outriges
were committed within thirty steps and
in full view of the polls. and we suppose
it will be claimed that they weie done in
the name of Liberty ! This young man
thus bound, buffeted, scoffed at and Out
raged, is an American citizen I lie de
dares that he never has, in any manner,
aided or countenance 1 the rebellion; or

In order that we may show our readers
that all testimony on the subject does not
come from the Democratic
_papers, we
copy the following from the Lexington
correspondent of the Cincinnati Cistanur
eial, an Abolition paper: " ' Vote as you
please, but if you vote against Napoleon
you'll be shot.' And' the first rouse
was elected Emperor by a large majority,
not from the fact of his great popularity,
or the desire of the people of France to
see him on the throne, but from a einga
tar and unaccountable aversion men seem
ed to have to being shot. • Vote as you
please' said, in effect. a few of the lead
ers of the Amendment party here yester
day morning, ' but if yon vote against our
friend; we'll have you arrested.' Bat the
people of Kentucky are not Frenchmen.
and those who attempted the Napoleonic
method of election found, ere fang, that
they had reckoned without their host.
Tide first reminder I had of it being elec
tion day, yesterday, was a file of soldiers
passing along the street, with several citi
zens under arrest. and on their way to the
guard-house. It called to mind scenes of
war and conflict in the distant South,
which I foolishly supposed were brought
to a conclusto: n with the surrender of the
rebel armies. I went to the vicinity o:
the polls and found a state of affairs ex
, istine for which history furnishes no par
' allel but that of France, which I have
quoted. The moat corrupt feature of the
election was this: Yen were prescribed
by a selfyconstituted ' Committee of Pub
lie serety," a list was made out, and the
command was !Pen to the soldiers, who
guarded the poi* to let no man whose
name was on that list vote, and not only
so, but to arrest him if he attempted to
vote. Now; I shinald li k e to know by
what right a party of men, whose loyalty
has been mere vigorously displayed in
holding office than in any other way Visi
ble to the naked eye, sat in judgment
upon the character of °theta and dekiied
whether they were traitors to, or friends
to the Government. I believe military
interference, to the extent cantemplited
by Governor Bramlette. that of protecting
the civil officers of the Government, when
called upon—would have been eminently
just and proper. Bat not conned with
this. it was determined by them who had

Inequality of Taxation. '
We have been rather loth to touch this
subject, which engages public attention in
various parts of the country, and bids fair
to become a topic of earnest, if not acri
monious discussion. The Republican
States of Connecticut and New Hampshire
have proposed to tax the income derived
from United States securities twenty-five
and fifteen per cent., respectively. The
Republican States of New York and Illi
nois, the one through its State Comptrol
ler, the one through its State Auditor,
have directed the assessors to assess taxes,
at the legal rates for personal pro perty,
on the abases of banks owning govern
ment stocks. The official action here al
luded to spring? from a sense of the in
equality and injustice of exempting the
owners of government securities from
their proportional share of municipal tax
ation. A millionaire who chooses to con
vert all his property into Federal bonds,
receives the protection and advantages of
the local governments without paying any
tax for their support. -
The injustice at such exemption is gen
erally acknowledged ; but on the other
fiend, it is said that the public faith is
pledged to the exemption and that the
government would violate its honor by
disturbing it. This is doubtless true ; but
it does not suffice to stifle discussion. It
is remembered that the French revolu
tion was an uprising of the people against
the inequality of taxation ; and that the
privileged orders destroyed themselves by
refusing their consent to a measure of
obvious justice. The privileged orders
were able to plead the public faith in de
fence of their exemptions ; but experience
proved that they were unwise and short
sighted in refusing to yield to persuasion
advantages which they could claim by
law. Wise and timely concessions would
have saved them from destruction ; and
the holders of our public securities may
reflect with profit on the lesson.
What, then, do the taxpaying part of
the community ask of them? • Not to ac
quiesce in a violation of the public faith
—for there is no proposal to violate the
public faith—but to allow this subject to
be discussed with the calmness and free
dom from excited passion, which can,alone
insure that mood of mind on which high
considerations of public honor and moral
ity exert their full> force. The problem
is, to lo satisfy the general sense of justice
that the great body of tax-payers will
cheerfully support the public faith, and
thus take away all excuse from incendiary
demagogues and repudiators. The most
solid guarantee of the payment of the debt
is a popular conviction that the debt is
fairly due ; and that its holders enjoy no
unfair advantage over the other classes of
the community. We therefore conceive
it to be for the interest of the bondhold
ers to make no strenuous opposition to
such methods of equalising taxation as do
not eomprornise the honor of the govern
ment. •
Congress cannot, of course, repeal the
law exempting the bonds from municipal
taxation. That body , is constitutionally
competent to pass such a law, and the
government is as catt,:h bound by its bad
bargains as by its good• ones. But the
bonds are not by law exempted from
federal taxation ; and a rough equalization
is perhaps attainable by this method. The
bleasts front government bonds is already
taxed, and there is no valid objection in
principle to laying a tax immediately on
the bonds themselves. To just, the extent
that the people are released from federal
taxes their means are increased for pay
ing State and municipal taxes. The ex
emption of the bonds augments the bur
den of municipal taxes on other property.
Taxing the bonds would diminish the
burden of federal taxation which rests.
upon other property. If the average of
loos' taxation is, say, two per cent. on
other „property than federal bonds, it
would be equitable for Congress to im
pose a tax of two per czat oa all the fed
eral securities owned in the Crated Staten;
throwing off, at the same time, a sufficient
amount of other taxes to leamethe public
revenue the 'lame. The inequality of local
taxation would thus be in some degree
remedied by lightening the federal bur
den. If by this exchange of one form of
taxation against another; the sante man
who pays fifty dollars more of municipal
taxes iecoissequence of the exemption at
the bonds, pays fifty dollars_ less of fed
eral taxes in 0311 Sequence of the taxation
of the bonds, the remedy Would seem to
be adequate, without, any violation of the
public faith..
No tax could be collected with such
certainty, and freedom from expense as s
tax on the federal securities. 'Supposing
the tax to be two per cent., it would be
amply the withholding of that amount oy

would pay five and three-tenths per cent.

The 'Republicans and the War.
The following extract from the forth
coming book of Hon. 8. 8. Cox, shows
how persistently the Republican party op
posed everything like,compromise at the
beginning or our troubles in 1861. They
no more wanted 'the question settled
without war than Toombli end Slidell :
" It has been stated. to rid the Republi
cans of the odium of not averting the war
when that was possible, that the 'North
ern members tendered the Southern the
Crittenden compromise, which the South
rejected. This is untrue. It was tendered
by Southern Senators and Northern Dem
ocrats to the Republicans. They, in con
junction with suns half dozen recusant
Southern Senators, rejected it. It was
voted upon but once iti the House, when
it received SO votes against 113. These
eighty votes were exclusively- Democrats
and Southern Americans: like Gilmer,
Vance, and others. }Jr—Briggs. of New
York, was the only one not a Democrat
who voted for it. He had been au old
Whig and never a Republican. The Re
publican roll, beginning with Adams and
ending with Woodruff, was a unit Assiut
it. Intermingled • with them was One
Southern extremist, Gen. Hindman, whd
desired no settlement. There were many
Southern men who did not vote, believ
ing that unless the Republicans, who
were just acceding to power, favored it,
its adoption would be a delusion.
The plan adopted by the Republican
Senators to defeat it was by amendment
and postponement. On the 14th and 15th
of January they cast all their votes against
its being taken up ; and, on the 16th„
when it came up, Mr. Clark, of New
Hampshire; moved to strike out and in
sert something which tie knew would
neither be successful nor acceptable. The
vote on Clark's amendment was 25 to 23 ;
every " aye " being a Repulplicso '
and
every "no," except Kennedy And Crit
tenden, (Americans,) being Democrats.
Oa this occasion, six Southern Senators,
including Benjamin and Wigfall, did not
vote. They could have defeated Mr.
Cark's motion. In reference to this vote,
we have the testimony of President John
son, in a speech on the expulsion of Sen
ator Bright, January 31, 1865, to this
effect:
" I sat right behind Mr. Benjamin, and
I am not sure that my worthy friend (Mr.
Latham) was not close by when he refused
to vote ; and I said to Benja
min, why do you not vote ? Why not save
this proposition, and 'see if we cannot
bring the country to it ?' He gave me
rather an abrupt answer, and said he
would control his own actions without
consulting me or anybody else. Said I;
Vote and show yourself an honest man.'
As soon as the vote was taken, he and
others telegraphed South 'We cannot
get any compromise."
Doubtless the rest of the six Senators .
had the same sinister motive for their
reticence in voting and readiness 'in tele
graphing. But their recreancy does not
excuse the b3dy of the Republicans. Nor
do I know that now, since the collapse of
the rebellion, they are so anxious to be
excused. I only write the facts of history ;
not to justify or condemn.
When this result was announced, uni
versal gloom prevailed. The people fa
vored this compromise. Petitions by
thousands of citizens were`showered upon
Congress for its passage. Had it received
a majority only, they would hive rallied
and sustainei those who deoired peace
and Union. One more earnest appeal was
made t) the Republicans. Gen. Ounoron
answered it by moving a recpnsideration.
His motion came up again on the 18th,
when he 'voted against - his own motion. It
was carried, however, over the votes of
the Republicans, although 'irigfall voted
with them. When it was up again on the
2d of March, .1861, the Southern States
were nearly all gone ; even then it was
lost by one vote only. But on that occa
sion all the Democrats were !Or, and all
the Republicans against it. The truth is,
there was nothing but sneers and scepti
cism from the Republicans at any settle
ment. They broke down every proposi
tion. They took the elements of concili
ation out of the Peace Convention before
it assembled. Senators Harlan and Chand
ler wera,espscially active in preparing
that convention for a failure. If every
Southern man and every Northern Dem
ocrat had voted for this proposition, it
would have required some nine Republi
cans for the requisite two-thirds. Where
were they ? Dreaming with Mr. Seward
of a sixty days struggle, or arranging far
the division of the patronage of the ad
ministration. The only Southern Sena
tors who seemed-against any settlement
were Iverson and ,Wigfall ; that no man
! will challenie if be•will refer to the Globe
(lit part, 15th Congress, p. 270) for the
testimony of Douglas and Pugh, and .to
Mr. Bigler's Bucks county speech, Sep

be true, when he said that— •

Toombs says to Hr. Douglas that the

carry the Statelout by 40,000 majority.
