FOR SUPREME *JUDGE, -
lion. George Shorswood,
OF PIiTIA.DELPRIA
TITE Radical State• ponvention met at
Williamsport on Wednesday, and, after nine
ballots, nominated Uon. U. W. 'Wlllinmq, of
Allegheny, as their candidate for Judge of the
Supreme Court.
TETE success of Mr. Lowry at the primary
- elections in Crawford county, has left his op
ixrneits in even worse temper than we ex
. petted.' Bp-almost every mail we receive
tidings which satisfy us that ltis support will
he anything but hearty,on the part Of many
Radicals, and not a few will utterly refuse to
..ive him their ballots. The-adlierrnis of Col.
McCoy, in Crawford county, denounce him
without measure, and open pro-tress have been
made to our friends in favor of a movement
forltis defeat. So bitter is the feeling there
that an influential Republic:it/Informed us a
' few days since that he and many others -in
his section would vote for the Democratic
candidate, in ease a man of conservative dis
position and strong abilities is pre:A:tutted: In
this•county the spirit of his Republican ene
mies is no less bitter and determined. Hun
dreds of the most zealor. Republican
they will under nor . circur ance; give - him
. .
their endorsement. It is looks. 1 upon as use
les fight him in the primary '.icetings.. as
he has secured control of nearly al t. a local
politicians. but there are not a few whocwould
Ise willing to Libor with all their might to de
feat him at the pulls in October,if au oppor
tunity is afforded them. The feeling among
this class of Republicans is so intense that
nine out of ten of them would prefer the suc
cess of an out-and-out Democrat - to that of
Lowry. We are not cleirly satisfi&l that a
Union movement to effect his overthrow
would be successful, but 'the prospects are
certainly more auspicious than at any previ
.ous period. The whole question lies in the
'.hands of the dissatisfied Republicans. if they
have courage enough to be willing to east off
The party shackles for the time being, and
sufficient determination - to enter a campaign
with proper vigor, there could be no-doubts
of its result. Their timidity alone has en
aided hint to obtain. the position he now
bolds, and if they really wish to see his pow
or broken up in this district they must be
willing to pursue adifferent course from what
they havelteretofore.' We do not intend to
point out at present what these measures
should be, but their charaeter must be self
evident to the mind of every man of common
intelligence.
JtL SESSION OR CONGRESS
The King of the Radicals, Wendell Phil
lips, has issued a proclamation, ordering the,
assembling of Congress in July, and that this
hotly proceed at once to the impeachment of
the President, and to the `mild ennfeseation7
of the property of Southern men. fn ac
cordance with this mandate, the Chairman
of the Radical Congressional Committee,
Gen. Schenck. of Ohio, has sent forth atm*
blast, summoning the Congressmen, big and
little; to appear at Washington on Wcanes
day ofnext week, then and there to perform
the task - allotted to them by their master.
The recent opinion of the Attorney General
is the pretext for these culls, and the attempt
is to be made to renew the popular excite
._
ment - and alarm upon which Radicalism
lives and thrives. -The purpose of the north
em extremists Is •to retard reconstruction,
prolong Ow exclusion of the South, perpetu
ate discoril, and defraud the people of the.
-letimatc results of the wir for the Nitional
unity and constitutional liberty. ' -
'Uwe can judge by the action at the last
two sessions, the likelihood of a summer ces
sion of Congress, cannot he vien t r 41 by
good citizens with other sentiment , : than
those of the utmost regret and dread. The
Thirty-ninth and Fortieth Congresses are
responsible for most of the troubles which to
day embiurass the government, and the mis
management of our Indian affitirs has added
greatly to the evils.. Indeed brith of these
_meniorable Congre-see, as. time will prove,
weep flinch more interested in questions of
patronage and ekputlitture. than in objects
belonging to the public safety. It would• be
madness to expect that the body which will
assemble in July can be, even in the most
tricking respect, an inutrovement upon its
predecessors, and the public may, therefore.
prepare itself for another era of extravagant
"appropriations, fanatical zeal to build up the
interests of a party at. the expense of the
good of the people, and blundering legisla
.tion, which prostrate - still more effectu
ally the trade and prosperity of the country.
SHERIDAN'S _LETTER
Gen. Phil. Sheridan has cent an impudent
letter from t New Grle - ang to Gen. Grant, in
reply to a request of the President asking
him to extend the time for registering voters
in that city, in order that full opportunity
for a fair registration might be given. He
defiantly tells the President that "he does
not fmLwarranted" in keeping the registra
thm open and with an assurance Chat is as
brazen as it is out. of place, -speaks of the
Attorney General's interpretation of the re
construction law as - opening a broad, mac
adamized mad for perjury and fraud to
travel on." He further 'says: "I regret
that I should have to differ with the Presi;
dent, but it must be recollected that I have
been ordered to execute a law to which the
President has been in bitter antagonism."
As. a specimen of sublime effrontery, this
epistle - caps the climax of anything that hag
appeared ih the military history of the man
-try. It shows the spirit of 'insubordination
--which has been created by the course of
, Congress, in a branch of the "pnblie service
which especially demands that. every inferi
or cancer should respect his superior, and
cannot fail to arouse the-intikmation of every
intelligent citizen. The country is fast be
ginning to learn that whatever Sheridan may
be in war, he is entirely beyond his level as
un executive offlekr. The time was when a
man who would have sent such a letter to
his commander would have been sent into
instant disgrace ; -and. if the President pos
sesses the couraie - bis friends claim for 'him,
he will administer little Phil. n lesson that
will learn him to behave like a soldier and
gentleman in future.
THE GREAT REACTION.
An election .has recently taken place in
IVest Virginia, the results of which indicate
that proseriptiye 'Radicalism - is rapidly on the
decline in ihat quarter. The election Was
- wholly a local one, being for eaunty officers,
but may be none the less significant on that
fieemmt. The Wheeling Register says; "The
regis . tration fratttki: With .Whose details the
State 'hag rgng,..._have -been rebutted. - The,

give /11P Use Military..conaus
jurisdiction in their commands; that their
acts are subject to thlapproval of 'the Presi
dent; and that they have no right to remove
the 'civil 'officers of the States, or interfere
with their legitiniate authority. in coming
to this conclusion Mr. Stanberry is in entire
harmony with the recent decision of the
Cnited States Supreme Court in the 3lLssis
sippi case, pronounced by Chief Justice.
, Cit se, the Court being unanimous. Justice
Chase said: " By the supplementary act oth
er duties are imposed on . the several com
manding Generals, and their duties must
necessarily be performed under the supervi
sion of the President as Commander-in.-Chief.
The duty thus imposed on the President is in
no just sense ministerial. It is purely exec
utive and political." Mr. Stanberry'uses no
more decided language' than this, and'
yet, before the President has intimated
that he intends to accept this Inter
iiretatiou of the law as the guide of his ac
tion—before he has given a single order which
has prOvokedßadical criticism, he is assailed
with all the e‘haraeteristie venom and malig
nity of the part: "great moral ideas."
' Nothing can he clearer than the purpose of
all this bustle. The Radicals must revive
sectional animosities and prejudices, re-open
the rapidly healing sores created by the war,
or -perLsb. Since the adjourunient of Con
gr,ess the country has been constantly he
coining more peaceful, and there was good
gvound tiir the hope that, ere long. it would
be at rest. This condition of affairs was ut
terly inconsistent with the political neemsi
ties of the Radleals,who cease to be a power
when peace and the 'Union are restored. As
Soon as it became evident that the . people of
flair South would accept - the Military Recon
strction act as the basis of re-organization,
and that no active opposition Would be - ol :
f(ired .by the Democracy of the North, the
Disunionists promptly set about the work of
raisine• new issues., Thad. Srevens rushed in
with his supplemental "mild confiscation,"
and 'Butler and Wade advocated a re-dis- -
tribution of the landed property of the South
in accordance with "the eternal fitness of
things." It Is fatal to the future of Rarli
calLsm thid any finality should be offered' or
accepted as the condition of political cabal
and the return of material prosperity. The.
suggestions of Stevens and Wade failed to an
swer the purpose, and so a fresh crusade upon
the President was determined upon. The
peace and prosperity of the nation are hi be
kept suspended in the balance, for the pur
pose, and that only, of perpetuating the gas-,
signs engendered during the war, and ena
bling the Radicals to retain their hold in the
public plunder.
THE QUESTION FOR THE• DAY.
It would seem as though the. mass of the
Smerican people ought to be willing to drop
the agitating questions which have disturbed
theirltarmony in the past,and devote the main
portion of their attention to the important is
sues which concern their more immediate in
terests. Two years of peace have been spent
in experiments Upon the political reconstruc
tion of the- , Southern States, and the people
of the South now seem to be proceeding - with
commendable promptness in Carrying out the
plan prepared by Congress for their admis
sion into the Union. They may safely be
left to themselves and the officers of the gov
ernment charged with superintending the re
organization of society in that section, and
the attention of the niasses-of the people,
both North and South, can be directed to the
material interests of the country that have
hem so long neglected. So far as the people
are voncertdd u e are satisfied that they are
ready to take thi; common sense view of the
question. They have had enough of einuen
tion and strife to last-them for a generation.
They have had enough of debt and taxation
to satisfy their wildest aspirations in that di:
action. They are sick and tired of the war
fare that Ims loco waged_ on abstract ques
lions. They know well enough, that our ma
terial interests hare been allowed to suffer
and the country languishes under the oppres
sive burdens thPt impraCticable men have
piled upon it. They now want a chance to
use their capital and devote their lalkor to the
reparation of the damages sustained in the
war. Why should they not be allowed - to at
tend to their own affairs, and, by the exercise
of an enlightened self-interest, go on devel
oping the resources of the country and aced
mutating wealth to lighten the burdens un
der which we labor? The schemes of politi
cians are all that prevent this desirable
i consummation, -The country langifishN for
the want of practical statesmen in the place_
of political mountebanks who have wormed
their way into pfilee: The great question
now to be met in this country is the financial
question ; but everybody knows that Con
gress takes hold of Ma( 'question last and
devoteslo it the least of its time. The con
dition of the currency, the rate of taxation,
and the redemption of the mortgaged wealth
of the enuntry from the hands of its credit
ors, are subjects that have never yet (seen
bandied as though they had anything to do
with the material prosperity of the country.
Business men see that trade and production
languish, that money is - scarce, -though the
currency has been expanded to twice its
normal volume, and that these two evils are
driving business ont of the country and re
tanling the development of our resources. If
we go on in fills way how shall We escape
bankruptcy nd ruin We confess that the
prospect is (I irk, and that it is groivjugdark
er every day, while we continue on our pres
ent course. see no hope except in the
good sense of the_ people, who are growing
restive under their burdens, and who already
manifest a disposition:to inquire what benefit
they are to receive_for the lavish expenditure
of their money.

tract from the letter:
Sr. SICEIOLAS HOTEL, New York,,)
June 19,1867.
Last night I was gratified by receiving two
telegrams from Harrisburg, informing me
that Judge Bharswood was nominated for
my place. I am exceedingly glad that the
Convention has let me off, and has nomina
ted so, good a man. No better choice could
have been made: and it is not at all proha
ble that any competitor can be put up against
him who will render the race even doubtful.

110 W WE ARE, TAXED.
An exchange calls attention to the astound
ing fact that " the WM- Department now 'ex
pends twice as much as the whole cost of the
government in Buchanan's time." And that
cost is likely to be increased by a prolonged
and expensive Indian war, and by nn addi
tional military force to keep the negroes in
the South in order, in consequence of the in
cendiary teachings of Radical inissiontiiies
and Radical secret einissariea, who are sow %
ing the weds of discontent and insurreetlon
among the blacks. Already the military ar
ray in the South is the source of one-half or
more of the entire eXpenfliture of the War
Department. This, with . the additional ex
pense likel r to accrue from the same source,
would 101%4 been avoldttl if the States now
,under military rule, had been allowed their
rightful plAce in the onion and their repre
sentation in Corigreis. Thus it is, that every
man whci Itvors . the policy of the Radical
Congress in keeping those States out of the
Union, and subjecting them to the dominance
of the military, givE.s . his Tote and influence
for continuing the present burdensome' taLs
ation under Which the people groan and suf
fer, and by which 'business languishes and
industry fails of its just reward. Not, only
this,
.but he-does Lis best to make this burden
some system of taxation still more oppressive
and ruinous. •
GEN. LoNonnE±r, who distinguished him
self in theonfoilerate service, has recently
peen captuti.d by the Radicals, and either
honestly or for a purpose, lin declared him
self a yonvert to their political views. He is
immediately par t ioned, and is advanced to a
leading pc . raition in . the Radical church, all
the papers of that faction containing extrava
gant eulogies upon his military and personal
qualities. The Cleveland Plaindealer thinks,
- not without good reasons Lir its belief, that .
`• if Jeff. Davis, who bagged Horace Greeley
when he got on to recently, will
only say,' let the nigger vote all the Radi
cals would shout, "rah for Jeff. Davis?" He
"can instantly be installed into as high a place
as that Occupied , by Ws' distinguished fellow
seces..slonist,,Huracc Greeley,. if he will only
acknowledge that a negn3 is as good as a
white man, and entitled to the same political
and social privileges. Longstreers pardon
and acceptance in the Radical fold should be
taken as evidence by Jeff. Davis that though
his sins be as scarlet, he May be togiven pro
vided that he is sound on the ' impartial silt
frage . : question. Thenegro is the wash that
elians the hands dyed red with loyal
blood:
STII.I. THEY Comkt—The.New York Times
has discovered that a nice crop of new issues
is springing up for future political harvesting.
In the first place there is confiscation, the
seed of which was planted by 31c Thaddeus
Stevens, and which, under assiduous cultiva
tion, has grown up. to be quite a sturdy plant.
Then comes the re-distribntion of property,
and a re-arrangement of the regulations be
tween employers and employed, proposed by
that Solon of legislators, Senator Wade, of
Ohio.' Next in order is, 'the brilliant project
of Chandler, of Michigan, who is almost as
wise, and quite as conscious of his own .wis
dbm, as-Wade, who proposes that we should
seize Canada in satisfaction for the Alabama
claims; and to cap the climax, we see that a
public meeting in New Orleans demanded
that Congress should appropriate fifty mil
lions of dollars to "obtain possession of Cu
ba." Happy is the nation that has such men
in its public councils; thrice happy will it be
when it learns to estimate them and their
scheme.: at theli proper value.
GIMAS:r OF THE BrlLDENED.—llarpees
Weekly is one of the - most yirtflent Radical
publications in the country, but once in a
while it tells the truth and shames its party.
Here is - something of inftiest from its col
umns :
*-" We cannot help . thinking and saying, too,
in strict confidence to the readers of this jour
nal, that stupid, and drill, and voiceless as the
public may be, he has some rights.which the
politicians will sooner or later have to recog
nize. Re is now' paying tatt at the rate of
seven per cent.—more than ig paid by the
most heavily taxed people of. Europe, and at
the same time he,is paying for commodities
of all kinds and labor fifty-five and one hun
dred and fifty per cent. more than any other
people, in thf. world. In England taxes are
heavy. no doubt:but food, clothing and rent
are cheap. In Russia living is expensive but
the taxes are light; but here in the United
States the public groans under the simulta
neous burden of heavy taxes and expensive
living. We have a notion that, sooner or la
ter, the people' will rebel against this load,
and that the patty that laid It on their shoul
ders will itself be laid pretty low."

CICEItOS -IN TUE SOVTII.
The statement Is made that a corps of thir
ty stump speakers, twenty of whom are ne
groes, have been sent to the South by the
Radical Congressional Committee, to educate
the blacks of that section up to the required
Radical stand-point. These speakera go
charged with thestrongcstlogie within reach
of the Congressional Comtnittte, - and with
the determination-not to permit even one of
the smallest villages to escape its share of
political advice. Reinforeements'are being
recruited - and equipped 'daily; and 'another
detachment of great moral expounders will
wend southward in a few days. It is to be
hoped that these - stump speakers will find
congenial homes In the South.- The North
has no need of-them.
TUE verrmen who claim That the "un
snbdued rebellions 'spirit of the South"'re
quires the strong, arm ,of military power to
control that section, are the best witnesses
that such is not the fact. Wilson returned
from his Southern tour and reported that he
was everywhere well 'received, and that the
people were quiet, awl seemed desirous to
do ell in their.power to forward the work of
restoTticm. Kelley ccrrifegized that the dis
order y elempro and the remaining rebels
weretaqumg)"a few, old women, army, dodg
ers, and.here and there a run-mad editor;"
and, as even this element came to the scr
face only when Kelley evoked it, the infer
ence is unavoidable that no army is needed
at the South, and certainly no Kelley.
