The Unioq' The indications on every side
point to a more encouraging. prospect for
the success of Democratic - principles than
we have had in a number of - year.: Thad
deui Stevens, the great Radical leader, says
Pennsylvania is likely to go against the
Radicals this fall, and he is, the last man who
would utter such a prediction unless the
signs of the times were so unmistakeably
clear as to allow of no other conclusion.
We can win the victory if we use the right
ful exertion, and if Democrats are one-half
as earnest in the cause as they profess, they
will not allow despondency and inaction
again to prevent the supremacy of our prim

IMPEACHMENT AGAIN FLOORED
The impeachment party met with signal
defeat in the House last week. The ques
tion arose first on the consideration of a reso
lution for an October session to take up the
impeachment question. This was voted
down and another adopted in its place to
adjourn until the middle of November.
Thaddeus Stevens, indignant at this, pro.
posed that the. Judiciary Committee should
report at once, but the Rouse. refilsed to 're
ceive the re-solution. A motion was then
nit* that the impeachment evidence should
be laid before the members on the first (lay
of the next session, to which the Chairman
or the Judiciary Committee offered an
amendment, allowing the committee to re
port when it pleased. Enraged at the man
ifest temper of the House, Stevens moved to
lay- all the propositions on -the table, and
they were carried there by a vote, of about
four-falls of the members - present. This
practically ends the impeachment farce, for
the Senate will, of course, - readily agree to
adjOurn to . the middle of . ..ls:roc - ember. The
Pittsburgh Post pertinently inquires Whetter
it is not time for this impeachment humbug
to be dropped entirely. The country has
been disturbed sufficiently by it, and the
men who persist in agitating the subject
should be driven out of power as conspirators
against the piosperity and happiness of the
- Nation. "The end proposed in raising it has
,been fully accomplished—the PreAdent has
surrendered to the usurpers—the impeach
ment bug-bear was too formidable—he has
shown the white feather—he has abandoned,
without an effort to protect them, the con
stitutional prerogatives of the Executive. to
the spoilers—he-has practically admitted the
claimed supremacy Of Congress; and as he
no longer assert, the authority conferred up
on his department, and has made an unc(m.
ditional surrender to the desmotic !: will of the
Legislative,_ there can be no further motive
for hi; impeachment."
A TIMELY WARNING
The National Intelligeneer doe,. not -hesi
tate to charge, that,.emboldened by the si
lent acquiescence of the people of the North
in the unlawful Ikb:4r:teflon of the right of
representation front the Southern States, the
Radical rongre.oiional revolutioni.hs now
propose to take it away also front the pee.
plc of all the States, when they fail to elect
Congressmen such as the dominant party
wish to have chosen. In a clearly written
and eleeedingly forcible artble, 'it thus
sounds the mote of warning:
"The second stepin this programme—the
exclusion of Kentucky and Maryland from
repreientation in the National Legislature—
has been begun. It is being carried out
with a boldness and shameless effrontery
'that should make the people of other States
tremble for their own rights of represent*
don. Upon the same principle that the
members elected to Congress from Kentucky
and Maryland are excluded from' their seats
in Congress, any opposition member Yvon
any - other State may be likewise excluded.
Already menaces .are uttered against. Con
necticut, New York, Pennsylvania, and In
diana. It is the intention of these desperate
usurpers of political lamer to purge Congress
of every man who will dare to raise his voice
in opposition to the fearful outrages Upon

JUDGE siAliswOoprn's
The Gazette of last 'Week contained's se
vere attack on Hon. GeOrge Sharswood, the
Democtittic- candidate for Supreme Judge,
the main points or . w hit•li ars• embodied in
the fullon ing sentences
"At the'very moment when the rebel. ar
mies menaced the National Capital, when
loyal men were suffering . disaster and death
in a thobsand terrible forms, Judge Sham ,
wood rendered a judicial decision to the ef
fect that the'national currency Was illegal and
worthless. He held in the case of 'Boric vs. -
Trott' that the Government had no power to
issue legal tenders, or eatablisly the national
Banking System."
Now, mark how plain a story will put
these falsehoods down. The Harrisburg Pa
triot, replying to a Similar attack on Judge
Sharswood, by a Radical paper in the South
ern portion of the State, gives the following
clear statement of the facts: •
A man held a ground rc'ut Mortgage,
given in. 173.1, in which it was stipulated that
the annual rent should be paid in •qpanish
milled dollars, by weight. After the passage of
the law making greenbacks a legal tender for
debt, the holder of the ground rent Mortgage
agreed to eVinguish the mortgage; for a con
sideration, and the purchaser (the owner of
the ground) tendered both the principal and
interest in greenbacks. The holder agreed to
accept greenbacks for the principal, but In
sisted that the contract demanded the pa
ment of Spanish milled dollars for the in
terest. The other party maintained that the
greenback law made greenbacks a legal ten
der for all debts, whether contracted since
the act was passed or before. The case was
taken into court and Judge Sharswood de
cided that the interest upon the ground rent
mortgage of 1732 would have to be paid ac
cording to the demands of the coatmet.
" The reasons adduced by the Judge were
deemed sufficient by all the legal minds of
-the country, at the time, and the soundness
of his conclusions have never been question
ed by any man of latellig,ence or legal attain
ments. No other view of the case would
have been in consonance with the fundamen
tal law, or in accordance with the true spirit
of the laws in general. The decision did not
pretend to vitiate greenbacks as a le - gal ten
der for all debts contracted since the enact
ment of the greenback law, nor in any case
of indebtedness contracted prior to the pas
sage of that law, except insa.ses where there
was a special cant ratt Stipulating that payment
should lie made in a certain prwribed man
ner—such, for instance, as in Spanish milled
dollat, by weight.
"Understood and applied in any other way
than according to the _decision of Judge
Sharswood, the greenback law becomes ex post
facto, and, consequently, unconstitutional.
The act was clearly not intended to be retro
active; therefftre the decision in question WAS
exactly in aceontwith If, however,
the act is to be understood differently, then
it is in violation of a fundamental principle
or the Constitution."

If our cotemporary mit Sathtied with
this explanation, Ile suggest that it had bet
ter secure the derision and publish the same
for the benefit of its readers. should it be
of the character pretended, it will be so much
the better campaign doetunent for that side,
and if not, it will enable our Migbbor to
show ,the fairness of its disposition, 4,11(1 its
willingness to - allow the public to judge of
the fats _for themselves. The- Gazette says
further of Judge Sharswood—_
" tie threw the wnow wer4nt
position, as well as of his personal influence,
in favor of the Rebellion. The people spurned
his counsel then, and saved the Republic."
The way in which the peophi :" spurned
his counsel" was by re-electing him utumi
monsly to serve as judge of the most :import
ant court in Philadelphia, at a time wir4 the
city gave from five to ten thousand Radical
majority, and in the midst• of the civil war.
Had he been the dangerous and unpatriotic
man claimed by the . Gazette, is it likely that
a Radical community would have given him
such a compliment ? Our eowmporary is apt
to run into loose charges, for party effect,
about election finks, and the attempt it is now
making to injure Tudge Sharswood's reputa
tion as a jurist and citizen is one of the most
absurd and scandalous that it has yet origi
nated.
TUB NEW MILITARY HILL
Congro:g on Saturday compromised the
differences between the two houses on the
amended "Reconstruction " bill, and it pass
ed by lartrc majorities—in the Senate by a
vote of :t1 to 6, and in the House 111 to 2:1
The bill is now in the bands of the President,
A ho-- , e intended action is not yet authorita
tively announced. He will probably veto
the bill,—when it will be passed by u two
thirds vote over his head, and become a law
of the land—so far as its adoption by a Con
”resl- in which eleven States are excluded
from representation cammakeit such. The
amended bill contains the following new fea
ture,:
That the military authority in the Rebel
States is paramount to all civil governments
therein, and that they shall not interfere in
any way with its authority.
' That the District Commanders have power,
subject to the approval of the General of the
army, to remove from office any civil officers
in their districts ' and to appoint to the vacan
cies officers of the army or civilians. That
the same powers - of removal or - appointment
are possessed by the General of the Army,
(but not by the President.)
That all the past acts of the District Com
manders in removal:Or appointthent are con
firmed. ' ;
That it is the duty;of. the Board of Regis
tration to ascertain and decide the qualifica
tions of applicants for registration, and that
the mere taking of the prescribed .oath shall
not la: conclusive proof of disqualification.
That the true intent of the oath prescribed
is that any person who has held executive or
judicial (Alice in- the Rebel States, ;old has
engaged in rebellion, shall not be entitled to
registration, Mid that all civil offices for the
administration of the general laws are in
tended by
,tlw uords " executive or judicial."
That the time tit.' completing registration
may be extended till October 1 ; that the
Boards have power to revise for a period of
five days the registration lists. and to strike
out the names of persons they lafficve to have
been improperly enrolled, and „to add - those
they believe impniperly omitteit - .
That no permm be entitled to he rezis-
Ivrea or to vote by reason of a aPresidential
)ardon of offense.; • wnieh would otherwiq.
lisoualify
That the district commander•i have the
power to remove and appoint Registers that
no person shall he disqualified from service
as Register on account or race I 11. color.
That the Reconstruction acts shall he con
stmt.(' literally, that their intent may he free
lv and perfectle curried out.
This net, like those preceding it, is based
upon the theory that Congress; us the su
preme power in the land by virtue of a revo
lution, has sole jurisdiction over- certain ter
ritory, which the people of- the. United States
conquered front themselves ; that Congress,
as the embodiment of the national will and
not as a legislative body deriving its authori
ty from the Constitution, has power to estab
lish military governments and maintain them
until the _people of,the conquered' territory
will give "reliable aind decisive" Radical ma
jorities : that Congress in the exercise of this
usurped power, is superior , to the Executive
anti Judicial branches of the Federal Gov
ernment, and will enforce its decrees irrespec
tive of President or Courts. This is the sum
and substance of the act above published,.
Which no one pretends has the slightest war
nint in the Constitution. - Congress has; we
think, made dear, - beyond all controversy, its
real intent and meaning; solhat there will be
no further misunderstanding,
Ml:tenni the part of the Generals Command
ing, the people of the South,the people of the
:Garth, or tile-President and his cabinet. •
FACT AND • NICTION:
Rev. G. R. Hepworth, in his Fourth of July
citation at Boston, said of the South: "Eve
ry Where G ehaiss, social anarchy, while our
ears are every moment greeted with the roar
of some brigand snub , or the cry of some half
murdered man or onuaged woman." About
the same time More crimes were eummitUal
in Boston 'audits vicinity than on any other
equal spice, probably in the talon. A. young
woman was' nTlerdered in Pnlchase street;
another iu Aithipthrldge street; a Mob °tem/4
in Kneeland street, and a MU eras stint; a
young man . ratarning to his home in Wet,'
Roxbury. willi.l4Alaters, was ultudered

cers, - and an attempt was heads to rob Train-
Pe% hotel. Great is humbug
NEeiBo .011 VICE
The Radicaliare : pegliniing to awaken tO
the grtiee mistake they have made in sip- ,
posing.that the noires of the Southsouldbok
manufactured into contented cattle votep
Merely to elect White men to office. The
blacks of Richmond were scarcely reg
istered before they demanded a negro Mayor
and three-fifths oftim,eityoffices. The t i e-,
groin ofMobile In their first communication
to the military commander declared them
selves "wronged" In "having withheld from
them places and positions under the city
ernment,"and they demanded that, half of
the policemen should be negro appointees be
cause it would distribute .60,000 among that
class. Everywhere the Freedmen's Bureau
has inettleated the idea among the blacks
thatpolitical privileges mean profuse-dona
lions of unearned tnoney and opportunities to
pocket things generally—A belief, tY•the-by,
That obtains largely among - their Radical
preceptors. The 'Radical party has presumed
too much upon the indifferenCe, as well as
ignorance, of the negroes. To tell them that
they may vote for the distribulion of offices
and 'Toni among; the whites, is much like
showing to a cage full of hungry hyenas a
basket of hones and telling them they May
howl as cheerfully as they will while the lions
are eating their dinner.
Revolutions never go backward, and negro
office-holding is atire to follow' negro toting.
To. be sure, the negroes, counting, theta at
850,000 votes in the North and South, are in
a minority, but it Is a minority that may
make the blacks the masters of the political
situation. It is absurd for, the Radical party
to count upon this vote as its own. It hi a vote
whiCh will alwdys hen in market to the highest
bidder, and Radicalism is even now' in danger
of losing this support at the South on account
of its 'reluctance to .share the offices and
spoils 'with the colored cohorts. Haw pow
erful minorities may become is seen in close
ly i. o nm b t e d towns, where out of a thousand
voters fifty may hold the balance of power.
These fifty, anti these only, may want an
eight hour law, or other special legislation,
and the candidate who will promise to sup
.port the projects of these men, if, he -can get
his share of votes on other issues, will be
eleetdt and will owe his election to 'the
minority. So with the negro vote. The
promise of police places and $1;0,000 Will
carry the entire negro vote of Mobile for a
Congressman or Governor of either party;
and so with 41 other offices in every section
of the south. The abolition of slavery, with
its inm liable sequences, was perhaps necessa
ry to show how Completely tie:trims can he
bought :aid sold.
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
The Prvsident, on nind:ty, sent into
Congress a brief Message, in response
to n request at that- body for all the in
formation in his' possession respecting the
milliary government of the South, and the
progress and expense of registering voters in
that section. . The following is the only
unnew to gructat tutureit, and we e0nmt,.,,,1
some of the points made in it to the special
attention of the tax Raying portion of the
community :
In answer to that portion of the resolution
which inquires whether the Runt of money
heretofore appropriated for carrying these
acts into effect is probably sufficient, refer
ence is made to the accompanying report of
the—Secretary of War. It will be weir from
that report that the appropriation of $600,-
000 made in _the act adopted March. 30,
1867, Cot the purpose of carrying into effect
the act to provide for the more efficient gov
ernment of the rebel States passed_Mareh 2,
1867, and the act suplementary, passed March
23, 1867, has' already been expended by the
coMmanders of the general military districts,
and that in addition the stun of $1,646,277 is
required for present purposes. It is exceed
ingly difficult at the present time to estimate
the probable expense of carrying, into full
effect the two acts of March last,' and the
bill which passed the. two Horses of Con
gress on the 13th instant. if the existing
governments of the ten States of the Union
are to be deposed, and their entire machin
ery. +o be placed under the exclusive control
and authority of the respective District Com
manders, all the expenditures incident to the
administration of such governments must
necessarily be, incurred by the federal gov
ernment. It is believed that in addition to
the $2,100,000, already expended, an - esti
mate for the sum which will be required for
this purpose would not be less than $14,000,-
000, the aggregate amount expended prior
to the rebellion in the administration of-their
respective governments by the ten States
embriced in the provisions of these acts.
The sum expended would, no doubt" be
considerably augmented, if the machinery- of
these States is to bq conducted by the Fiede
rad government, and would be largely. in
creased if the United States, by abolishing
the existing State governments, shouldLbe
come responsible for liabilities incurred by
them before the rebellion in laudable efforts
to deyeiorptlieir, resources, and in no wise
created for insurrectionary purposes. The
debt of these States thus le gitimately incur
red, when accurately ascertained, will, it s
believed, approximate a hundred millton f
dollars, and they are held not only by of r
own citizens, among whom are residents of
portions of the country which have ever re
mined loyal to the Lidion, but by Persons
who arc the subjects of foreign governments..
It is worthy the consideration of Congrt-p
and the country, whether if the Federal gar
ernment by action, were to assinne such obli-_
gations, so largean addition to our publie ex
penditureo would not seriously impair the
credit of die nation i. or, on the other hand,
whether the refusal of Cong,ress to guarantee
the paymentof the debts of those States, all
ter having displaced or abolished their State
c.overnments, would not be viewed as a vio
lation of good faith, 111111 a repudiation by the
National Legislature of liabilities which those
States had jnstly and legally incurred.

The llnnocratie State Convention ,of lowa
adopted the following resolution:
Resolved, That the maintenance inviolate

cessionist," " Rebel,:'..."ltl_Fogy," were the
mildest epithets let but it turns out that

Presidency in 1860.
