OF BERKB COUNTY-.
EXCITING FOREIGN NEWS. r--
The last - steamer 'from Europe_brought
us • tidings of a very ithportini anyi exci
ting nature. The British Isles have been
convulsed with a financial panic almost
unparaleiled in modern history, and ex
tending into every part of the--Kingdom.
T ,, e panic culminated late on Thursday
afternoon, the 10th; in the suspension of
tftverend, Gurney tc-Co., one of the hen•
viest and regarded as one of the soundest
houses in London. The liabilittes are stated
at tram ten to twelve millions of pounds sterling.
The beak-down is attributed to heavy
speculative sales of shares, which forced
them dowp from ten premium to a dis
coneq. Depositors then, began to get
akrmed, and the drain on the 101 h was
very severe. Application for assistance
was made at the Bank of England, but
the governors declined to grant any, on
the ground that it would be vain in a
crisis like the present, to assist one estab
lishmont unless they were prepared to
help other applications as well. On the .
16th instant the Bank of England raised
the rate of discount from eight to nine
per cent, and charged for special advances
as , high as 10. The pressure, even at
these terms, - was enormous ; and it was
only on Unexceptionable bills that an ac
commodation could be obtained. Mean
while, 'additional and moat, serious disas
tera- ware hourly announced. The first
was that of a comparatively small hank=
the English joint - Stock—for. £BOO,OOO
'sterling. Then came that of Peto & Betts,
of which Sir Morton Peto, chief financial
agent of the A. Jic G. W. R. R , is head,
for £4,000,000 sterling ; then that of W.
Sbrimpton, railway contractor . , for £200,-
UflO ; and firm after firm toppled over in
na astonishingly rapid manner. In every
city and town of the kingdom the moat
intense - excitement prevailed, and it was
U•ared that the crash would become gene
ral.
The immediate occasion of all this Iran•
tic fluttering is the brief speech made by
the Emperor Napoleon to the inhabitants
of the little town of Auxerre. The part
of that speech which has operated. like an
electric touch on the nerves' of Europe, is
.his statement that he " detested those
reatiesof 1815, which it is now sought
to make the sole basis of our foreign po
licy." As this same sentiment had been
uttered by. him before, without causing
- such's commotion and panic, why should
it_be regarded .as so startling now ? FOr
this reason : that the declaration at Aux•
erre is regarded•as the imperial response
to the applauded speech of M. Thiers,
delivered two or three days previously, in
the Carps Legislatif. Thiers had set forth
in strong colors, the complicity ofh the
imperial government with the warga
thering over Germany. Neither Prussia
nor- taly, he contended, would have ven-
tured hit° their threatening position had
-they not felt assured of the countenance
of France. The war to which the Empe
ror has given his assent will lead to im
portant changes in i the map of Europe,
and consequently disturb and upset all
the - territorial arrangements settled by
the treaties of Vienna. It was in plain
allusion to Thiers' recent speech, andlhe
great outbursts of enthusiasm with which
.t was greeted, that the Emperor ex
, 'pressed his detestation of " those treaties
of 1815 which it was noW sought to make
the sole basis of our foreign policy." It
was inevitable, under such circumstances,
that the speech of the .Emperor at Aux,-
erre, should have been' regarded "as the
flbrilt tocsin of war. ft is not surprising
that a declaration so significant and un
expected should cause financial Europe
to quake touts center.
THE DEROCELITIO REVIVAL.
The glorious results of the election in
the West on the first_ Monday of April,.
are being followed up by other triumphs
still more marked. At the election in
Quincy, Illinois, s on the 16th, the Demo.
cratic majority was over 500—last year it
wag; but 150. At an election for Council.
.man,in the Fi ft h Ward of Indianapolis,
tire Democratic candidate was elected by
a majority of 270. At the previous elm
tion, the Republican candidate was elec
ted by a majority of 195—making a gain
of 475 in favor of the President's policy.
The ,bnef telegraphic announcement from
Chicago that" at the election to-day ten
Republicantland six Democratic aldermen
were elected" was more significant than
we . sup cued. Just before the election
the Republican stated that—" Last t e ar
the Union men elected fifteen out of the
sixteen aldermen." This shows a gain of
five aldermen for the Democracy. The
DeMocrats of Fort Wayne, Indiana, car-
;tied their spring election by 700 majority
• -the largest majority ever polled there.
In the ' adjoining townships the Demo,-
erotic gairs have been from 50 to 75.
;:pringfield, Illinois— Mr. Lincoln's old
home—has gone Democratic by 30 majo
rity—it gain of 200 since last election. The
Democracy of Toledo,. Ohio, carried the
late city election by .32 majority. Last
year the Republican majority was 529—a
Union gain of 854. . j _
The' municipal election in Scranton,
Luzernd County; resulted in, a brilliant
l'emocratic victory. - Last year tho
Unionist's carried that borough by'. a majo-
rity of about one hundred and fifty, and
on Friday, Gregory, the Democratic can
didate•:or Chief Burgess, - waiTfelected by
nmajoriof of over five hundred and fifty,
showing a gain for the Democracy in.
twelve months a seven hundred votes !
In 'the North Ward a Democratic coun-
ciiman was chosen for thejfirst time since
the borough was established ; -and, on the
I Whole, the Democracy generally had a
-I right good time. (in the 24d instant an
"plection was held in 'Wilkesbarre, the
county seat of Lucerne. The town has
always been opposition until this year.
,At the late election a democratic burgess
was elected by 381 majority. The Demo
crats carried New Haven, Con., by 1,50 6
majority. The Disunionists h ve got up
a petition to the Legislature, king that
the election of the Judge o Cie City
Court, Jige of the Police urt, &c.,
°ball be en out pf the bands of the
ople and tho Common Cannon, and
That those officers be elected by the Legis-
lature. 'This is following the New. York

DAYINAND Taa l
-Tho knowing ems at Washington no!.
boldly charge that notwithstanding the
clamor Wade, for papillar effect, by the
radical leaders for the punishinent of
Jefferson Davis, they are throwing every
obstacle in the way of a trial before the
civil courts. The hypocritical refusal of
Mr. Chase to pr,_ide at the trial in Vir
ginia, because martial law was dill in
force, has already been exposed. The
conscientious' Chief Justice has, 'since his
elevation 'to the hutch, preilded over
courts in Washington and Baltimore,
whore martial law was enforced with the
utmost rigor.. To prevent the trial of Mr.
Davis, the Judicial"! Committee of the
Senate have reported a bill, which bas
passed that body, to change the place l and
time of holding United States courts in -
Virginia. It changes the place from Nor
folk to Richmond, and provides . that the
time for commencing court sessions shall
he the first Mondays in May an Decem
ber.. This would' postpone the trial at
once from .June to December, and in the
meantime the radicals hope that Mr.
Davis will die in prison, as he is quite
likely to do if his confinement iiprotrac
ted that long. It is evident that nothing
would confer more pleasure on the radi
cals at this time;than the death of`Davis.
Such an event would relieve them of a
dilemma aid save their political capital.
THE COLORADO BILL.,
For ones the Radicele have been utterly
silenced•and confounded. The message
of the President, returning to the Senate,
with his objections, the bill erecting Colo
rado into-a State,' so completely exposes
the Ecluidalous character of this particu
lar &idiot scheme for plapetuating pow
er in their own party, that no _reply to it
is found - possible. Iu the Senate the mes
sage was put aside with deliberate inso
lenco ; the Radical press prints it, and
makes' no sign. But the future of this
nefarious attempt -to foist a factitious
Corrinionwealth upon the• Union for the.
sake of getting three more Radical votes
into Congress does not make the attempt
itaell less nefarious, not ought it to be tuf-'
fored to pass out of men's memories with•
Out leaving there its lesson of the reckless
and unprincipled temper of those who
conceived it, carried ifs successfully
through both Houses, and, but for the
courage and-the patriotism of the Presi
dent, would have consummated it by wel
coming the representatives of a fabricated
State to the halls from which they shame
l:, sly exclude the constitutional delegates
of eight millions of free-born Americans.
Bad as it is, this latest assault of the Rad
icals upon what they tikemselves denomi
nate the "life of the nation." is no worse
than scores of other acts done by'them in
the past, tending all in - one-directiort. It
has been defeated, happily for us all, by.
the President; and we ask every honest
man, who still hesitates between the pol
icy of the President and that of the Pres-,
ichnt's enemies in the Senate and the
Home, to contrast this veto message of
Andrew,,Johnson, boldly defending -prin
ciples essential to our national existence.
with the attitude of the men who have
t)een crushed by that message into a si
ience which is the most eloquent confes
,-ion'that could possibly be made of their
conscious guilt in the transaction thus
brought to nothing.—N. l Y, World. '
AN IpIPORMANI" CASH.
An importhnt ease has just been deci
ded in Wayne exanty, in this State. Pre
vious to the October election of last year,
the Radical papers announced that elec
tier officers throughout the common
wealth were bound to reject the votes of
all persons who bad failed to respond to
drafts during the war. ' tinder this state
of 'circumstances, the District ,Attorney of
Wayne county prepared an opinion in re
sponse to questions propounded to him
by Officers of the election, in which he net
forth their duties as clearly defined by the
law's of Pennsylvania, and gave due 'no
tied Old all violations of said lav;would
be prosecuted. This opinion and notice
were forwarded to the several election dis
tricts of the county. They failed, howev
er/ to reach some 'of the more, remote
'townships, and in two of them the vots
of alleged deserters wee rejected, and he
Individuals thus deprived of their rights
instituted suite against the offendik par
ties: The case came up for determination
during the present term of the Court, and
Judge Barrett charged the jury in the
moat 'emphatic and unmistakable lan
gunge as to the law bearing upon the
point at issue. Be pronounced the act
of Congress disfranchising 'so called de
sertersmull and void, and distinctly gate
it as his opinion that the parties so, desig
nated' were as much entitled to a vote as
the judges and inspectors of elections
themselves. This he declared to be' the
law of the land in Wayne county until
reversed by a superior Court, and as such
he gave, notice that any, violations of it
hereafter would be regarded as wilful mis
demeanor and punished accordingly.—

The Washington correspondent of the
Springfield Republican says that "So far
as I can learn every member of the Cabi
net professes to agree with the President
in private and in open cabinet meeting,
and unless I am badly informed, Mr.
Harlan is not an exception. The Presi
dent certainly tells bis friends so, and
there are outside facts which seem to
corroborate his allegation. In short, two
or three members of the Cabinet are
each trying to ride two, bones. • How
long they will be able to _keep it up •
without broken limbs ono is naturally
anxious to see." The. position of Mr.
Harlin has been ascertained since the
correspondent wrote. He sent a letter
to a Johnson meeting in Philadelphia
last week, regretting his inability to be
present, and endorsing the President's
poidtion. The Cabinet is a utiit in sup !
port of Mr. Johnson's • reconstruction po
licy. •

It Is a fact, asstated by a contemporary,
that the Democratic party hail sprays sus
tained every incumbent of the Presiden
tial chair_who•bas defended the Constitu
tion—and, the anti•Democrats' hive hear
tily opposed all such. The only three
Presidents-ever elected by the anti -demo
crats were liarriaon, Taylor aldlLincoln.
Each died in the Presidential office, and
were succeeded by Vice. Presidents elected
by the same party. In each case the anti
democrats quarrelled with the Vice Pre
sidents, because they would insist on be.
ing guided by the Constitution—land they
egcb, in turn, Ind to throw tberrselves

These are significant historical focts.

THE Radical papers are in ecstacies over
the election of their candidate for Mayor
in Williamsport. The change, the Phila
delphia Age says, in the political co' mplex
ion of place is owing to the annexa
tion of a large quantity of territory to the
city-by the last Legislature. This was
done for the purpose of breaking down
the Democratic majority, and it,: succeed.

ed instead of kiting votes.
How It -Is Done.
New Jailor bas often been denomtnated the.
State of C tmden and Amboy," op account
of the. overwhelming influence which the
railroad corporation of that name iS supposed
to have over her public councils. Oh the same
principle, the Keystone Commonweblth might
properly be dubbed the itState of the Penn
sylvania Central," for it ie a nothrious fact
that the company which bears the littter name
controls legislationit klarrisburg aq comp'ete
ly, if not more so, as the Camden and Amboy
ever did at Trenton. Flor some years past, no
railroad measure, and a may almhst be said
no measure of any kind,) has been Eble to get
th'e sanction of our State Legislature, unless
it Aral received the potent endorsement of the
,President or Vice President of the Penneylva
nia Central Company. Their enmity was
sure to defeat it; their friendship was a cer—
tain guarantee of its success. The; truth of
these facts is so well known to all Men of ex—
tensive acquaintance in political or commer
cial life, that none will bo found to disPute
them.
It has often been a wonder to innocent people
who are not weft acquainted with the m tuner
of transacting business at our State Capital,
and the class of men who compose what is
sometimei derisively styled the " assembled
wisdom of the Commonwealth," hoW a couple
private citizens, mere officers of a railroad
.corporation, could succeed in securing such
,an exalted influence as to be able td shape the
entire legislation of a great people. The
secret is pulls , lot out by a correspondent. of
=therittsburgh Commercial, ° whose : statement.,
EgiTen below, will be found of unusual interest.
"The Cot Scott referred to is Vice!President
.of the Central Railroad Company; and was
Assistant Secretary of War for a time, under
Gen. Cameron :
In 1865 Col. Scott had- to epend nearly a
mouth in Harritkurg to accomplish what his
read demandee - '.. But see the imprOvement in
running the Legislative machine In the first
week of January, 1866. one night at Harris
burg sufficed to organize the committees as be
desired them, and three visits of from twen
ty-four to thirty-eix hours each were all that
were required ti secure all that he demanded.
And yet this monopoly secured everything in
- the power of the last Legislature tb grant—
the Anthracite and -Consumers' bill, with its
branching powers, gridirening the eastern
part of ' the State. Tho Philadelphia bill
gridirons one hundred miles from the south
east to the n:lrthwest; the Southern Penney'
vania and Connellsville, with its hrauchet,
covers'the entire southern portion of, the State,
and the Centrarpart, with its
.brattehes, covers
the whole of middle Pennsylvania by 'the Trunk
road. ' These grants and the defeat of the Ma
honing and,Baltimore connections Will answer
for one session. And yet so thoroughly is , the
machinery organized that all this was accom
plished without an expenditure oft over five
days' personal, attendance of Coll Scott at
Harrisburg.
Oa Saturday of each Week he giais private
audiences to each chief in command of his
squad, inside and outside of the Legislature,
at hie office on Third street; Philadelphia.—
Half a dozen of daily train[{ afford 1 facilities
in ease of need to send one-of his special aids
to Philadelphia for orders. The mit - is al
ways at band. and then the compitoy own a
line of telegraph, which is always ,used in a
ease of sudden emergency, to give its orders
on the floor. Col. Scott, through these in
strumentalities,
_can at any time take the
Odor
,of either or both Haulms, and dictate
.ver legislation the monopoly demands.
e need na longer alarm the' people of the
State by being openly the opeineer in charge
of the Legislative - train. The Sp§akers of
both Rouses, the Chairman of all the impor
taut committees—aye the mejority in both
Houses—recognize a dispatch r)m him as
sufficient to stop the train, run it Et one or
sixty miles an hour, just as fully a; con
ductor on any train on the road, or ;-ro
man at any machine shop.

derstoad that this Diamond, as it *al then
called, was a place reserved fur us farmers to
stop >ftt with out' loads of hay, wood, lumber
or. whatever' we bad ta sell, so 48 not to et
cumber the streets, and also for the military
to panda on traini ag i days; &e. S, far :they '
hay.: taken' the ;responsibility to fermi up a
portion of it on each elle of Sta.° street, and
plant envie trees ! which is vary w.ll, as State
street is wide, and the country people can
' place their waggons along without interfering
with the street or side walks. But teat.° off
St tte street and where are they to go ? The
marker house- is! puled down and-the room
armlet it to be ene'osel, and no provision
made for another mirket.house, • or any
plies provided fur the market people
to go on . market days. ' This looks as
if the town peop'e do not want our market

VETO OP THE COLOLLADO MILL.
,
7o the Senate of the United States: -
I return to ;the Senate, in which it
originated,' the bill which has passed ,both
Houses of Congress, - entitled an act for, the
admission of the State - of Colorado into
the Union ; with my objections to its be
coming a law at this time. ' ,
Frat— From the best information which
1 have been able to obtain, I do not con
eider the establishment of a State govern
ment at-present necessary fOr the welfare
of the people in Colorado. Under the
existing Territorial government, all the
rights, privileges and interests of thst citi
zens are protected and secured. The
I qualified voters',choose their own legisla
tures and their own local officers, and are
represented in Congress by a detente of
their own selection; they make and exe
cute •their own municipsl laws subject ' s
only to revision' by Congress, au authority
not likely to be' exercised unless in ex
treme or extraordinary cases. Toe popu •
lation is small, some estimating it as low
as 25,000, while,the advocates of 'the hill
reckon the number at from 35000 to 40000.
The people are sprincipalty'recent settlere,
many of whom 'are understood to be ready
for removal to other, mining districts be
yond
the limits of the Territory, if cir
cumstances shall render theni more invit
ing. Such 'a population cannot but find
relief from excessive taxation, if the Ter
ritorial system which devolves the expen- ,
see of the Executive, Legislative and Jty
dicial departments of the United States ,
is for the present continued. They cannot
but find the - security of person and --pro
perty increased by their reliance upon
the National Executive power for
,the
maintenance of 'law - and dicier against the
disturbances necessarily incident to all
organized- communities.
Secon 1-:—IL is not satisfactorily estab
lished that, a Majority of the citizens e - 4
Colorado desire or are -prepared for an ex
change of a Territorial for a State gov
ernment. , In September, 1861. under the
authority of Congress, an election was
lawfully appointed and held for the pur
pose of ascertaining the Views of the peo
ple upon this particular queStion. 6 192
votes were oust, and of- this number a ma
jority of
-3,152 was given against the pro
posed cange. In September, 1865, with
out any legal authority, the question wits
again presented to the people of the ter
ritory with the view pf obtaining a recon
sideration' of the result of the election
held in compliance with the act of Con
gress, approved. March CI, 1864. In this.
seconst election 5,905 votes: were polled,
and 7 smallenajority of 155 wasiven -in
favor of a i State organization. { It does not
seem to me entirely safe to permit this
last nsentiened result, so irregularly ob
tained, to' outweigh the one which bad
been legally obtained in the first election.
Regularity and conformity to law are es
sential to the preservation of order and
stable government, and should, as far as
preaticable; always be observed in the for
mation of new Stites. - '
Third—The admission of Colorado at
this :time as a State into. the Union, ap
.pears to me to be incompatible with the
public interests of the country. Whilti it,
Is desirable thatterritories when sufficient
ly matureitehould be organized as States,
yet the 'spirit of the Constitution seems to
require that there should be an approxima •
tion toward equality among the several
States comp - rising the Union. No State
can have leas or more than two Senators
in Congreie. The largest State has a pop
ulation of four, millions, severe' other
states have' a population exceeding two
millions, and many others have a popula
tion exceeding one million. If this bill
should become a law the people of Colo
rado, thirty thousand in number, could
have in tire Howie of Representatives one
member, while New York. with a popula
tion of four millions, has but 31. Colo. a
do wriu'd have in the electoral college
three vw era, while New York 'had only
thirty three. Colorado wOld have in the
Senate two votes, while 1,,r0w York has to
more. Inequalities of this character have
already occurred; but it is t.elieved none
have happened where the inequality -was
so great. Where such inequality has been
allowed, Congress is supposed to have per
mitted it on the grounds of some high
public necessity and udder circumstances
which promised that it would rapidly dis
appear through the growth and develop ;
ment.of the newly admitted State. Thug;
in regard' to the, several States_ itix what
was formerly called the northwest terrace
ry, lying east of the Missouri, their rapid
advance in population rendeted it certain
that" states admitted with only one - or two'
Representatives in Congress would in a
very short period be entitled to a great in
crease in; representation. ' So, when Cali
fornia was admitted on the ground of
commeciat and , political exigencies, it
was we I foreseen Abet that slate was de. , -
i i
tined apidly to become a great, pi.osper
ous *and important mining and commer
cial community. In the case of Colorado,
lam not aware that any.national exigen
cy, either of a political or commercial na
ture, requires a departure from the, kW of
equality which tuts been so generally ad
bored to in Our history. If the informs
1 lion submitted in connection with this
i bill is. reliable, Coletadto, instead of in
'creasing, has declined in population. At
an election for members of a Territorial
Legielature, held in 1861, 10,580 %votes
were cast. At the election before Men
tioned in 1864, the number was 6192,,
while, at the regular election held in 1865,
Ischich is assumed fop a bans of legislative
action rit,this time, the aggregate number
of votes was 5 005. , Sincerely anxious for
I the welfare and prosperity of every
,terri
tory' and state. as well as for the prosperity
nnd - welfare of the whale Union, I regret
this - apparent decline of population in .
Oolorado ; but it is manifest that it is due
ft:emigration, which is,going on from that
territory into other -regions—within the
United States, which, either are in feet or,
fire believed by the inhabitants' of polora
do,to b, richer in mineral , wealth and ag•
rioaltural resources. If, however, Colora
do has not really declined io population,
another census or another election under
the authority of Congress, would place the
question.beyond doubt, and cantle but lit
tle delay in the ultimate reception of the
territory as tt state, if desired by the peo
ple. The tenor of these objections fur
nishes the reply which- may be expected
to an argument in frvor of the measure
dcrive.i from the enabling act which wits
passed by Congress on the slat day of
Mooch, I 864; although- Congress then sup
posed that the condition of the Teri-40y
was suet as to warrant its admission as a
state. The result-of two years Experience
shows that every reason which existed for
the institution of a territorial instead of a
state government -in Colorado at its first
organizrtion, still 'continues in force. The
condition of the Union at the present mo
ment is calculated to inspire caution in
regard to the admission of new states
Eleven of the old states
.have ,been for
some time and still remain unrepresented
in Congress.' It is a common interest of
all the states, as well those represented as
those unrepresented, that the integrity
end harmony of the Union should be re•
sawed as crtnpletely as possible, sollit
all those who'are expected to bear the bur
dens of the Federal government shall be
clnsulted concerningthe admission of now
states, and .that in the meantime no new
state shall be prematurely and unnecessa
rily admitted to a participation in the po
litical power which the Federal .govern
moot wields not for the benefit of any in•
dividual states or section, but for the cora
nuin.saiety, welfare and happiness of the
whole country. (Signed). • .
