Cohgresi he would come back, not, by
hundreds, as then, but by thousands of a

Tan Essex (libel.) M . resman says that
Rev.. William Spaulding, on the night be

"We shall to-morrow send Butler to
Congress with an impeachment document
in one hand and a halter in the other, to
first hang President Johnson, and then
next, every Democrat in the United

We will venture the assertion that
Spaulding is the biggest coward in his sec

My Dear General : You know how en
tirely unfitted I am at this moment for
the exciting scenes . of a political canvass.
I was hurried to this place, and I must
hasten away from it. Nothing hai been
left unsaid by . me t heretofore, and there
fore nothing need now be said by me to
make known my opinion that the delay
of the restoration of the organism of the
nation is a great error, fruitful only of
danger; and that continually. Persevere
in the correction of that error.

DECAY OF THE SAM
The decay of the negro poptzletion of
the Southern States during and since the
war is beginning to attract the attention
of observant men. • The Alexandria Ga
utte, in noticing this rustier, says "of .the
large number of negroes who came to this
city during and since the war, allured
from 'good and comfortable homes, where
they had been raised an,o* . here they were
well cared for, by the iyien voice of the
Freedmen's Bureau, many have, after suf
fering more durin(their short . residence
.here than in all their lives before, died. in
misery and distress; and the census now
being taken shows that of those wlio re
main alive r inany, disgusted with city.life
and -the_heartlesspkis - 'of, the prevalent
philanthropy: have rettiiiid to their for
mer masters." .The census for 1866,,n0w
being : taken in Alabama, shows the fol.
lowittiltesult. with the change since 1864
in the countied of Lauderdale; LowndeLi.
Madison, Mobile and Pickens : 'Whites,
75,613 ; Negroes, 62,362 ; White increase
since 1860, 6251; Negro- decrease since
1860, 3,116.
The increase of negroei in Mobile has
been 4,093. Their decrease in the coun
ty has been 7 209 ; showing that they are
both decreasing and crowding the cities.
In Hinds county, of the same State, there
were in 1860, by the census, 2 363 ne
groes, and by a iengui taken this rear,
16,950. This shows a . .decrease of 5,413,
being upwards of 24 per cent: upon the
census of 1860. In% the West'lndies, tin
der the effects, of freedom, the race has
steadily diminished s p?it the rate of about
one per cent. per annum, but in Hinds
county, Mississippi, the decrease has been
four times as great, and we have every
,reason to believe that the same causes]
have produced the same effects evetyl
-where in the Sontb. If, instead of SI
tempting to force the ballot into the ban
of the negroes, the RadiCals would atten)
to their material interests, it would hk
better for the nation and the colored race.,
Unless some Maps are, taken other than
those which they are pursuing for inter
ested political purposes, there will not be
enough negroes left in the-United.States
in fifty years to make them felt either in
the political "or industrial:scale.
WrtaT WAS,'DLCIDED.--Tl►e Harrisburg,
Telegraph and Forney's press are the au
thorized organs. of ttuf newly elected
Governor of Pennsylvania. What they
say of the result of the reoent election
• May be taken as law and gospel. The
l'ilegraph declares editorially,:
'The 'nigger' will be no longer the issue
between partiee. The adoption of the
Constitutional amendment by threei
fourths of the States, and the admission of
Southern Representatives to the 40th
'Congress, has been insured • by then late
election. The e xtension of the right of
-suffrage to the blaeka will quietly follow,
- and the next question will be : Shall the
right of franchise be extended to the wo ,
,rnen ?'
We WiMsd the people that negro suf
frage would' follow in the footsteps of it
Radical victory at the polls. During the
canvass it was denied by them—they said,
no nuch IMO was before:the people. But
as soon ss the election is over, they coins ,
oftt boldly and avow it. If ever the con:
dilutionsl amendment is adopted, "the
right of franchise to the blacks • wilt fol
low." Whether it is adopted or note it
will beeought to be forced upc? the peo
ple. The Pius already claims that when
Congress meets,, suffrage will be conferred
upon the District of Coltuuhis.• The
• proof becomes every day more abundant
that the Radicals fought the late cam
paign on a stupendous lie.
The Atlanta, Ga.,llra says, °the South most
earnestly desires peace.- Whatever she can

are Radicals. Should they be admitted
in the next Congress, the Radical strength
will be 45 members, giving them an abun
dance of votes, and some to spare, to car
ry any measure they may wish over the
veto of the President.
Sixty-three members of the House of
Representatives were chosen in October,
to wit : Pennsylvania, 24; Ohio, 19 ; In
diana, 11: Lows, 6 ; and West Virginia,
3—of which numberPty•one are Radicals,
as 'follows : Pennsylvania. 18 ; Ohio, 16 ;
Indiana, 11 ; and West Virginia; 3. In
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indians, it is
quite possible that the Radicals will fur
ther gain two or three, seats by ousting
Democrats whose election is,- contested.
There is, therefore, chance that the num
ber of Radical representatives from the
States named will be increased to 52 or
53. Maine and Vermont voted in Sep
tember, electing Radical delegations to
Congress by large majorities. Their joint
strength. of eight Representatives in
creased the Radical number of Congress

SUDDEX GLORY.
The Harrisburg Patriot says of the two
negroes chosen to — the Massachusetts
Legislature that since their election they
receive on en average a bushel letterseaeh
daily. Many of the Jetters are congratu
latory. and come from- the- prominent
Radical leali of all the Northern States..
Many othetiiire of the begging sorti—so
licitipg tiseir votes and influence in every
sorL.fif project of legislation, private and
public. Befides this,. their houses are be
sieged continually by Radicals awaiting
audience, and they have been compelled
to emplornshers, who admit the applicants
, by turns. - In many instances money bee
'veil paid for first , places in the line of
audience seekers. Advantage has been
I taken of this fact by professional loafers
at the "hub," who go early and stay late ;
never getting an audience, but always
selling out tbeirplaces in the line of the
highest bidders. So numerous and ea-.
ger are the besieging crowds that numer
ous bloody-noie rencontrea take place
upon questions of precedence. The Bos
ton and Charlestown authorities have
been compelled,' in consequence, to sta
tion policemen at thedoors, and also to
keep the sidewalks sufficiently clear to
-allow of ordinary travel. The colored
Legislators, for a few days, felt exceeding
ly honored by these manifestations, but
the long continuance of the ovation has
bored them, broken their rest and under
mined their' health so much that they
have concluded to rigidly adopt the ex
elusive system always practiced by
great men. They will hereafter, there
hire neither peruse a letter nor grant an
Audience except through the recommenda
tion of their private secretaries. This will,
at least, be the course adopted by Mr.
Merunxta., o€ Boston, who represents the

exactly as the political tendencies or con
venience of a majority of the members
may seem to dictate, without any rule or
restriction in regard to the proportion of
wealth and population which 'one county
bears to another,..or the local character of
the wants of each county. The conse
quence iv, that,. when a district is formed
it ie thrown together generally with a view
of adding to the political strength of the
party in the majority in the Legislature,
for the purpose of gaining an ascendency
of the other party. If we take Pennsyl
vania for an example it will be seen that
iti Radical Congressional strength is not
owing eo much to the number of votes east
as to this peculiar Apportionment of the
Districte. Our sympathies are with the
Radical party, as is well known, and we
can have no object but that of fairness in
poititing out this discrepancy.
"Take, for instance, the number of Con
pressional votes cast at•the late election, •
which were 593,454,.-302 468 Radical, and'
291,086 Conservative, making a Radical
majority of 11,382, or about half as many
votes as are cast in any of the Con
pressionaLdistricts. It would follow then
that the members of Congress ought to be
about. equally divided between the two
parties. But instead of this, the Radicals
have eighteen Congressmen and the Con
servatives but six of the twenty-four,
while the former had but few votes in ex
cess of the total vote polled. The system
of apportionment, therefore, is unjust and
should be changed, not only in the Con•
gressional but also the •Assembly Districts
where the same evil prekails. An arrange
ment should be made to take these ap
portionments entirely nut of the hands of
politicians, and they should be so made
that equality, and .the local character of
one county all related to another, should
be considered."
STAND BY PRINCIPLEI:4The .levotion of
the Democratic isarty to great 'cardinal
principles, truthfully remarks one of, our
favorite exchanger, is not the offspring of
selfish calculation. It is born of a clear
Conviction that by and through a.triumph
of the doctrines which this crawl old par
ty advocates the best interests of the rams
:
110 will be subserved, and
.the glor and
greatness of the Republic enhanced Be
lieving that firmly, the Democracy f the
North mode o most gallant fight in the
recent election. They are' defeated, but
they are not disheartened. They xpect
their principles to triumph, and to tri
umph with them..

In all such contests as those in which
we have been engaged, the party that
stands most firmly on principles has the
surest guarantee' of success, while th.s
party that is thoroughly and exclusively
identified with a principle vital to the
governinent has a guarantee as absolute
as the existence of the government it
self. The conservatives of this country
stand on such a principle. Let them
become identified with it as thoroughly
as they are exclusively, and they must
prevail, if the government endures' it.
If the government does not perish, the
principle must triumph ; and, if they
but gallantly lash themselves to the prin
ciple, they will triumph with it. .

the Legislature of Massachusetts is eel.-
taitsly a novelty in American politics. The
event, however, is one thai will undoubted

a few days, of various speculative move

disposed of at the session of Court last week.
We have not thought it necessiry to publish
the cases in which only true bills were found,

important to make the case one deserving Of

Meteoric Showers.
Past Exhibitions and their Character. The
Theory Relative to Melvin.
The most stabling phenomenon of shooting
stars of which the world bas •furnlsbed any
record, was witnessed throughout the United
States on the morning of the 13th of Nevem
ber, 1883. The entire eiteiat of this astonish
ing eihibition has not been pm:ll*V asen.-
label, but it covereino inconsiderable portion
of the .earth's surfaCe. has been traced
from the longitude of 61of, in the Atlantic
Ocean, to longitude 100° in; Central Idoxico,
gnil from the North American lakes to the
West Indies. It was' not sena, however, any
where in Europe, nor in South America, nor
In any part of the Panfici Ocehn yet heard
from.
Everywhere, within the limits above men
tioned, the first appearaioe was that of
fire
worts of the most imposing grandeur, covering
the entire Taal t with myriads of fire bellsie
rembling skyrocket,. Their coruscations
were bright,. gleaming and incessant, and MI
fell thick as dikes In the early snows of De
oember. To the splendors' of this celestial
exhibition, the most . brilliant sky-rockets and
fire-works of art bear lists `relation than the
twinkling star to the broad glare of the tun.
The whole heavens 'teemed, ' to be in . motion,
and suggested to some the awful grandeur 'of
the image employed in the apocalypse, upon
the opening of the sixth seal, when the stars
of heaven fell upon the earth, even as a. fig
tree oaeteth her untimely figs, when she is
shaken of a mighty wind. ;One of the remark
able circumstances - attending this, , displey
was, that the - meteors all seemed to emanate
froui one and the same point, s little south east
of the zenith. Following the arch of the sky,
they ran along with immense ',velocity, des
cribing in some instances an arch of Elr,or
40 3 in a few seconds: - .
• ,
On more-attentive inspection it was seen
that the meteors exhibitathree distinct va
rieties ; the brat, consistink of phosphoric lies,
apparently described by'a 'point ; the, tumid
of large fire-balls, that it intervals darted
along the eky leaving luminous trains which
occasionally remained in Blew for a number
Of minutes, audio some cases, for half an hoer
or more ; the third, of. , l o ,undefined luminous
bathes, 'which remained nearly stationary in the
heavens for a long time. Those /of the first
variety were the Most nun:kraus, and resem
bled a shower of Eery anew driven with . in
conceivable velocity .to the north-west. 'The
second kind seemed more like falling stare—
s spectacle which _ was contemplated by the
more itnenlightened • beholders with gftat
amazement and terror.',The trains which '
they left were tinged with; various prim:cltic.
-colors, of great beauty- iSrago computes that'
no less than 240,000 meteor's, were visible
above the horizon of Boothia on• the morning
of the 18th• of Noiember,AB3B. The display ,
was seen , all over North. &Merles. A similar
display was seen by Hi:unbolt, at Cumanti,.
South Atherica, in 1799.

orbit of the earth-at the stated rrio fof their
