It will ko seen by the above list of yeas and

Mr. Lowther iu favor of it.
Daring the late political campaign in this
county, there was no question before the peo
ple in whick they seemed to be so unanimous
as that'of opposition to the repeal of the ton
ago lux. It was not confined to party, but
both the candidates for .the tegislatfire, in
this county atleast, Were pledged against the
repeal. flew far the change from an uncon
ditional repeal, to a commutation of the tax, •

the tax-payers to determine. The balls a
sort of compronilTr betvieen the opponents
and friends of the measure, by which the
company agrees to pay over the =Omit of

anticipate the payments duo on account of .
the purchase of the Minim line, so es lo
data the debt by 1690, by which time, it is.
supposed, with economy, the entire State debt
May be wiped out. We are satisfied that a
large majority of the people of this county are
opposed to the propesitionnooriginally made,
and it is net very likely that their opposition
will be weakened by the present cluing° in
its features. However, as the bill will soda.
be before the Senate, they -should lose no
time in instructing 'the Senator 'from this
district, no to how he shall oast his vote on
the final issue. •
The Fraud In ihe;War Department.
The special committee_ appointed by the
:"7 . peuse, to investigate the facts connected with
the fradulent alstractiv of the bonds. of the
Indian Trust Fund, have minion report through
their chairman, Gen. 1.. N. Morris of Illinois.
When the matter was first made public., it was
thought the amount was only $870,000, Lilt
the investigations of the committee show, that
in 1858, Gov. Floyd, Secretary of War, with
out authority Of law, issued acceptances to
the firm of Russell, Majors & Co , .Government
contractors, in advance of their earnings. This
system continued; until neither banks nor in-
dividuals wero found willing to purchase them,
and to give them additional credit and back
them up, $870,000 of tho Indian Trust bonds
wero stolen from the Department of .the Into=
rior by Mr. Bliley, ono of the clerks, nod
through this theft, cud the'subsequelt action
. z—of-the-investigiding-conanittee,_this swindling_
transaction has bcen'exposed.; The whole a-
mount of acceptances issued by Floyd, ex
•,-..„,ceeds six millions.of dollar s ; much of it is in
The hands of innocent 'holders, and a grove
question will arise, how, far the Government
is liable for Gm unlawful acts of their agent.
It was proved also belp the committee, that
while Russell, Majors Co. were realising the
money from these acceptances, they were also
receiving from the Pi ymaste'r of the United
' States, the full ainount due,ou their contract.
Gov. Fioyd was an avowed secessionist, and
while be played into the hands of the South, by
furnishing them a full arintiment, he was ea
deavoring,to cripple the Government by t,lie
abstraction of the public funds. Such
pies as Floyd a . nd Cobb, should go•far towe l titis
breaking the back of secession. •
The Pence Congress.
•
It'is
said•thatttho vacancy in the Peace
Congress, caused by the death of Judge
Wriglkhas been filled by Mr Walcott, who
is so much of an. abolitionist that ho moved
the adjournment ofhis court, in honor of
John Brown the day he was hung. Judge
Wright held the casting vote of Ohio, and
was in favor of Mr. Guthrie's proposition.
The Virginia Commissioners desire to leave
nothing to construction, and in this they are
sustained by Maryland and the other States.
hence efforts will be Made to clear up • all
ambiguities by amendments before a direct
vote be taboo on the report.
The States of Rhode Island, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania are anxious and determined to
Kaye u satisfactory settlement,, and express a
perfect willingness to support any and every
proposition looking to that end, and their
Commissioners threaten the Republican party
if they da not come forward and prevent a
a dissolution of the Union, that their States
will' go with the South.
The extremists of the Republican mom•
bars of Congress express a determination to
do ill' they canto defeat any movements for
asettlarueni. which the Conference.maymake,
alleging as a reason therefor that as the next
Administration is to be responsible for the
Settletuent or:noti-Settlement of the difficulty,
the matter should be loft to the management
of Mr. Lincoln and his' cabinet. • •

made thhir charges against Cue !'white .free
mon" °Mb() North, and when Mr. Webster
made his assertions, they wore to bo under
stood as alluding to our White citizens—other•
wise they woo wholly irrelevant, and had
nothing to do with the subject.
But he wants now to justify himself, and
for that purposelnts procured a letter from I.
Dixon Roman Esq., of Hagerstown. What is
the object of this. justification? It must be
either' through a cohiinued desire to fix the
stigma of murder on our citizens, or -for the
purpose of gathering material, and false ma
terial, to influehce Hid passions of the South
against the North.
Mr. Roman of Hagerstown, who Writes in
support of Mr. Webster's assertions, was not
here at ail at the riot—saw nothing of it—and,
be was not even here at the Trial. Witt he
heard from others, and others who were not
present either, is then brought against the
statement of Mr. Miller, erf eye witness of
the whole scene, and who was tho counsel for
lartnetlyi and whose feelings and sympa
thies hive always been keenly active on the
side of Mr. Kennedy and his friends,
Bat Mr. Roman does not contradict Mr.
Miller, in any one Particular, except ea to
the cause of 'Mr. Kennedy's de,ath. Mr. Ro
man insists that it was from the injuries he
received in.tbe riot. It is a - sufficient reply
to say, that on the trial of these rio
teiS, Judge Watts and Mr. Miller and all the
rMuls'el for the Commonwcalth tried theft best
to make this point hi evidence, but, could not
eoluce a single witness on the stand, who
'would venture his opinion that those injuries
had anything to do with the cause of his death.'
In' addition to this, ono of the. physicians who
attended lain gave it no his opinion then, and
gircs it as his (pinion 71011'; that be did die from
cramp in the stomach. It was also raid nt
Ilse lime, that hir. Kennedy had for some time
been suffering froin disease of he heart, rind
ninny supposed that his death might have been,
from this cause.
Mr. Roman stoles in his letter. "flint it is
not I rue, as slated by Mr. Miller, that be hod
recovered From his injuries previous to his.
dealh,'” Mr. 11ete6 , ,,i itppea,a very anxious to
make willlil wisrepiesentations, for Ilr; Mil
ler said no such thin;. Mr. Miller said he
lay some weeks "apparently rapidly
and that every ono thought, "b was do-
lug as well as could possibly be. expected."
Mr. Roman ought to hare read the letter a
little more carefully, before making such as
sertions. But his •letter is evidently
in passion. and with a desire to influence the
South ogninz,r the North. IL is siAtitar.that
the friends of the deceased,lvlio wits'corlainly
ono of the most accomplished gentlemen of
Hagerstown, should wish to have him holdup:
to the eyes of the publiaa spectacle as n mur-,
dered man. IV° should suppose that delieticy
- would Airbid this. They know that thiS oo
etmeuce was a source of the deepest regret lo
our citizens, nod that while Mr. Kennedy Was
• lying in our town there was a deep and uni-
Vo:sal sympathy for him, among all classes.
An - flint could - be Flo w for - hinr. - Fas - donettnd
if any thing more could have been done, there
was not one of our "citizens" 'on whom this
stigma has been cast, who would not have
risen at midnight io do it. , Al er his death a
large town meeting was held, at which strong
resolutions, regretting the occurrence, and ex
pressing sympathy anpondoleuce NSTIo pas
sed,and when his corpse was taken from town,
an immense procession followed his remains.
Yet the iusincatiori is still made, that conic
of on; citizens assisted in the mob. There
-was no pretence of-ally charge ap,ainst tidy
but one Man--" a professor in our college,"
as 111 r. Roman motorists. Thin was the only
,solitary individual that was suspected qi.• ac
cused. Ile was tried, and acquitted. Against.
him ibore wea some evidence of rash and im
piudeut cap , essions by some
_witnesses, but
none that the jury thought sufficient to int
o
plient? him in the mob. But will Mr. Web
ster please reply to the following when he
next chorges the citizens of Cailislo with
inurdee.
After these charges were
,made against
Prof. McClintock, a meeting was held by the
etudenis of Dickinson College, at which cer
tain resolutions were pasSed and published,
signed by 37 from Maryland, n from Virginia
and 13 from other southern States'—all of the
southern students. Among those resolutions
were the following: •
t 4 At The limo of the rip!. (Wednesday af
ternoon), the two Literary Societies, to which
all the students belong, Were in Session, and
as the excitement Was very suddenly raised,
and the college is at ' KMO distance from the
. court house, the students generally, were not
aware that any thing of the Wild bad occur
red, until the whole affair was over. If there
was 'any student at all on the ground, none
certainly took any part in the matter."
" As to Prof. McClintock's alleged partici
pation in the transaction, we are not only
satisfied from the most respectable testimony
thatlhe oharge is untrue, but from his long
established character we believe him incapa
ble of any 'such thing. The story,did indeed
come to us at first so perverted and oxaggera-
led, that with the natural warmth of south•
°mars, many of us wore exeited•agairtst him.
'But Oftor soy oral meetings held for tho purr
pose of considering the matter, in which not

The New York Tribune, having stated
that Mies Itiehings sang the Southern Mar

writes to the editor of that paper the following

me of your authority for the report, that, I may

The Sporeme Court
It is said that. Mr. Williams, a member of
the Legislature from Alleglianyeounty, intends
to present on address to the House, for the
removal of all the Judges of the Supremo Court.
Thils is equivalent to an impeachment.
Our State Constitution provides two modes
for their removal ; one is a regular impeach
ment by the House: and tiff arraignment of
them before the, bar of the Senate, end the
other by an address voted by two•thirds of the
Legislature to the Governor, who shall there
upon remove theta. This address may be
voted ‘' for any reasonable cause not sufficient
for impeachment."

FROM WASHINGTON
Letters received in this city from North
Alabama and parts of Georgia 'represent a
great reaction in progress against the so•
cession movement. So strong is this feeling
in some sections that they are said to refuse
to acknowledge, tho•secessioti ordinance, and
keep the stars and stripes flying' The same
feeling prevails in portions of Mississippi:and
Lousiana, and the question naturally' arises,
'will the SoUthern Confederacy use coercion
against its refractory subjects?
A letter from a Georgia member of Con
gress was shown around the House of.ReP
resentatives today, in which he deplores the
reflation in the popular mind in the Gulf
States; and fears' its inercasit if a comprotniso
is effected satisfactory - to the Border States.
"'The returns from Tennesee have almost
annihilated the Border• States revolutionists,
whilst the Union men of the South are in
eestrieies. — Not only have -the-Union-men
swept the State of Tennesee, electing proba
bly tour fifths of their candidates, but they
have declared that Mere shall be no Cowen.
that the membere who have been
.elected shal&never meet to take into consid
eration the subject of secession.
It appears by letters received .here from
'Charleston that the people doubt their ability
to take Fort Sumpter. A gentleman there
writing to this city says the impression is
very general among the military men that
thee would not he able to take it; that wheth
dr they takelt or not, there must be a fearful
lutfs of life.
AFFAIRS AT PILNSACOLA
The Mobile Mercury, of the 12th inst., lids
the following:
V.. S. Murphy, of the Metropolitan
Guards, Montgomery, arrived in our city yes•
terday from Pensacola. The Alabama troops
that have 'been stationed there, now number.
lug about 375 :nen, are to be - relieved, and
Lieut. Murphy islnow here seeking means of
transportation. ,Col. Clayton had arrived'
with three companies, numbering about WO
men, and others were to follow, to take their
places.
Lieut. Murpby reporti four war vessels at
Pensacola, to •wit.: Macedonian, Brooklyn,
Sabine and St. Louis.—These do not enter
the harbor, bid find anchorage outside, about
six miles off. The Wyandotte is permitted
to come inside, and is the means:of commu
nication between the shore and the fleet. On
Friday, the weather becoming rough, they
found it necessary to weigh anchor and put
to sea. On Soni/ evening, the Lieutenant;
observed that they had retprned to their an
chorage. We think it not, unlikely the storm
of Sunday night may have moved them
again.
When the Brooklyn arrived the other day,
Col. Lomax is said to have sent her aim•
mender a message by a pilot• not to enter
the harbor at the risk of having hisyessel.
sunk.' Lieut. Barron, Mr. Buchanan% spe•
cial commissioner, went but to meet her on
the Wyandotte. A strong belief prevailed
•among the Alabama troops lima the orders
brought by Barron had . been countermanded
by orders received, and that it
was the purpose to retake the positions Oc
cupied by the Alabamians. .Slemmer has,
sent Lieut. Oilman from Pickens to Wash
ington. . It is surmised that his mission has
some reference to the supposed subsequent
Orders.
There is a decided impression that Pick
ens' has . been reinforced. It, is not known
pOsitively, but it is observed that cannon are
mounted much more ihfildly than before the'
fleet arrived. .It 'is preeiselj4hat we ex•

TAX Counormts.—lt is said that a 'bill
will be presented td . the.LegWature at this
session, to change the law relating to the ap
pointment of tax collectors, so as to take it
out ofil4ands of the County Commission
ers, wl FIS fately been a subject of much
complaint. Sainr as we have heard tha
Commissioners express an opinion, we be
lieve they would gladly be relieved of that
duty. i
ILF:TRENCIIMi:NT.—Petitions have been sent
to the Legislature from this county, praying,
for a law to educe the fees-of Justicei and .
'Constables, ifikAases of arrest and 'commit
ment. The reason assigned for this, is the
large amount of costs, annually accruing in
consequence of commitments under the va
grant law. The rtpid increase of vagrancy
in this and adjoining counties, is a matter of
suprise, for which the law does not seem to
afford an tufequatinietnedy ; man of them
seeking a commitment—if rder to obtain
food and shelter, and yet, if they are per'.
milted to wander at will through the county,
no, family is safe from intrusion. We do not
see that much good can result from the pro-
posed reduct ioh. The prate, safety and , good
order of society, render it necessary that load
and dangerous men should be arrested, and
if is hardly possible to obtain oflicer'.4 who
Will discharge these-disagreeable duties, with
out reasonable costs.
By the countp,statement, just published, it
- "appears that the whole amount of f . . 9 ,paid
Justices and Constables, in Commonwealth
cases during the past year, is $745 1 . ,59. This
suedivided amongthe.twoiNAA,Justices,
and niacton Constables of the etienty, shows
but a small amount of business for each.
We understand also, that petitions are
in circulation to change the law, regulating
the pay of the Commissioners ; so as to give
them an annual salary of trap huildred dol
lare, including travelling' expenses, instead of
the.prefie'ut pc . r diem allowance. There is no
office iii the county involving more attention
and responsibility, than that of Commission
ers; ;and as the present pay hardly affords a
fair compensation to a man who had to ne- r.
lea his private business, while attending to
the affairs of the county,' it is not very likely
that much advantage woal)1 be derived frdm
the proposed amendment. .
