DIVISION OF TENNESSS.--7DrOwn
low of Tennessee, in his annual mes
eage-to the Legislature at its January
session, will advocate the division of
the State. East Tennessee is said to
be united on this question, in demaild
in&Aseparation from the middle and
western portions of the State. The
Governor is also
. an editor, and in his
Knoxville Whig thus foreshadows the
new movement : "East Tennesseans•
will be a unit for the separation. We .
will accept too the terins. We are
ready to - go-empty nmpty handed. West and
Middle Tennessee may have all their
railroads; public buildings, turnpikes
and only their proportion of the Stets
debt. East Tennessee . will 'assume
hers and ask no more. .
LEA DING Virginia journals and poli
ticians, of the ex-rebel type, have re
cently exhibited a remarkable unanim
ity in conceding that negro suffrage is
inevitable: Their 'neiVborrr faith—is
prOclaimed,with considerable vigor, and
apparently with the most earnest sin
•cerity. As faith without works avail
eth nothing, Congress will recognize
the duty, and cheerfully exercise the
privilege, of subiiiitting the Old Do
minion's new eenverts to, Republican
ism to such tests, as will afford satis
factory proof that the new ideas have
radically penetrated the aristocratic
hearts of the old slaveholding leaders
of the rebel Democracy.
_
RUMORS a the capital concur in
representing four of the eight Supreme
Justices--GRIER, DAVIS, SWAYNR,
and MILLER—as favoring a decision
for the constitutionality of the Legal-
Tender acts, and Messrs. FIELD CLIF
FORD and NELSON against it, with
Judge CHASE "believed" to side with
the majority. His vote the other way
would divide the Court evenly and
leave the present state of the question
undisturbed. But an impression has
become general, in quarters the best
by a clear majority of the Court.
CARL SCHURZ" is the 'Republican
nominee for •the Missouri Senatorship,
from which Ma.- HENDERsON retires
in Match 'next. The nomination has
riot been secured without a long and
bitter contest against the personal in
terests of a limited but influential sec
tion of the party in that State. But
we see no good re ;son for doubting
that the nomination . ; which has been
fairly won, and with an ample majority
in the party caucus,-will bit honorably
ratified in due time lay the formal elec
tion. - Republicans, will' welcome Gen
eral SCHURZ to the Senate as to a field
in which great distinction awaits him,
and as a sphere of enlarged usefulness
to the country. -
A MAN'S first concern is to do well
in the worfa. The second is to pro
tect himself against want. Business
enterprise will do the first ; economy
will sometimes result in the second.
But there are contingencies in - life
which no thrift or sagacity can
,avoid.
Death may come, or pecuniary disas
ter, or National trouble,, in which the
Most . carefully prepared plans , will be
wrecked, and the -proudest fortunes
swept away. Thus, ever-present dang
er makes an ever-present duty, 'which
is this : To protect our lives by an in
surance policy; which will give us an
income while living, and a legacy to
those w - e, leave behind ust.• The Na
tional Life insurance Company, char-
tered by a special act of 'Congress, and

The Registry Rill
That gigantic frauds were perpetta
ted in the late-elections by tbe Democ
racy no - one can be found to doubt ;.1
and the fact that the Republic:an party
was able to save the country, in spite
of these operations: of the enemy, ii
no, reason why there should not. be
strict'and rigid measures adopted to pre
vent their perpetration hereafter. Thro l
them we lost the. great State of New
York, and unless we take the proper
measures to prevent them, we may at
aome.future day lose our own . State
failekto elect our
Supreme Judge simply through tlioir
agency, and as late as last- Fall, in
the midst of Ouc 0;410 triumph's, we
lost the municipal officers of-Philadel
phia in the same manner. Repeaters,
fraudulently-naturalized voters, and
imported roughs and rowdieS must, be
kept "away from the polls by proper
legislation, or the honest yeomanry of
Pennsylvania may,,, at some future
day, be voted do'wn by dishonest bal
lots, as is yearly done in New Yeti:
city,.. and .as was recently done in
Philadelphia.
The subject of naturalization, in its
larger proportions, must be dealt with
by Congress, lint in the regulations of
prothonotaries of our State courts, and
upon the subject of a Registry Law, it
is within the immediate province of
our Legislature to enact proper and
saiutary statutes. Indeed, it is their
bouden duty to attend to these matters
at mice.
. Feeling the necessity. of such legis
lation as will at least in some measure
protect the purity of the ballot-box;
we are rejoiced to find that Senator
Taylor, of Beaver, has already intro
duced a bill which, in the main, seems
destined, if passed,_ to accomplish the
desired end. Its provisions seem to
be sensible and explicit, and we doubt
not will-meet-the approval of a majori
ty of the members of both Houses of
our Legislature. When passed it will
secure just what is needed in this
State, viz.: a law that will, in a great
measure, prevent fraud in our elec
tiMis. Let us have, it in operation be
fore our 'Gubernatorial election neat
Fall, and we will haVe no toable in
electing our candidate by a sweeping
and triumphant majority. Fail to give
it to u - srand the .dexterity sand machi
nations of the Democracy, under the
lead of Coffee-Pot Wallace, may give
us trouble, and require far greater ef-
Tort on our part to secure victory than
we may wish to make:
Senator Taylor's bill stunt • be
amended, if it needs it, and then pass,
ed; or, if it be correct, should be pass
ed at once, Its prOvisions seem to be
all that is required, and among them
are to be found the following most ex
cellent ones:
On the written request of fifty voters
in a county, or of five, in a district,
with the affidavit of one or more of
them averring their belief that fraud is
intended at an approaching election,
or that it-will not be fairly or legally
conducted, the court or a judge in va
cation shall appoint for the district
applied for, two sober, discreet, and
eitiiens thereof, from the
opposite political parry of the inspec- -
, tors respectively, who' shall' attend
and act as overseers at the election,
with the right to challenge voters, to
examine them and their witness, and
papers, and to oversee the counting of
-ther-votes-nntl--the-mak-ing-eut-and-sign—
ing of the returns ; and if they ate un
lawfully interferred with, so as to pre
vent the execution of their duties, and
the election is contested, the Votes
polled shall Le rejected by the board
of return, judges or the tribunal pass
ing upon it.
if the return judges, or a majority
of them, are satisfied from sufficient
evidence; that fraud has been corn—
mitted at an election, they may reject
the entire vote of the district in which
it wigs committed, but their action shall
not interfere with the rights of others
to contest tbeelection t as .determined
by them, or any of the election board,
in the manner- now allowed, by law.
• If, in adjusting the revised list of
voters, differences of opinion shall
exist among the -members of the board,
a majority shall determine, and
dissenting ones may( note their reasons
for dissenting ;'and-if the overseers, or
either of them, are satisfied that frond-
Went votes have been received, or law
ful ones. rejected, or that other r. ands
have been committed, they may make
memorandums thereof.; nail in either
case the election officers shall enclose
and seal the papers 'thereof with the
other election papers, to he used in any
contest" that may arise respecting the
electiOn. ..t- ,
An examination for naturalization
shall be in open court, and under the
immediate cognizance and judgment
of its members as presiding judges.
Every prothonotary shall keep a
naturalizatiOn docket, in which lie
shall register, in alphabetical-order, the
name of every applicant, the time of
filing his declaration of intention, and
his petition—the place and country of.
his birth = his age, residence and time
of his arrival in this country—the
names of his vouchers and, their resi
dences, and the date and nature of the
court's action ; and the same shall be
open for inspection and for copies," - ais

under, him shall act in violation hereof;
or shall issue a certificate of naturaliza

The Election of United Stoles
Senator
Our Legislature. on Tuesday last
elected the Hon. JOHN Scorr r of
Huntingdon, as United States Senator
froro this State for six years, from the
4th of March next. The contest for
this Position was virtually settlel by
the Republican caucus some two weeks
since, and the hollow compliment paid
by the'.. Democracy to William a
.Wal
ince, by giving him their votes, was in
full ,keeping with the emptiness -of
their political principles.
The following was the action of the
two Houses in The election :
IMMO
The Speaker said : .
Agreeably to the provisions of an
ac - fA' Congress of—the United- States,
entitled
„" an act to regulate the, times
and manner •of holding -elections for
.Senators in Congress," approved the
25th day of July, 1866, and of an act
of the General Assembly-of this Com
monwealth, entitled "an act to define
the time and regulate the manner of
electing . Senators to represent this
State in the Senate of the United
States,", approved the, 11th day of
January, 1867, the Senate will' now
proceed, viva voce, to name one person
for Senator in Congress from the State
of Penniylvania.
The roll was 'then called ; where
upon
Messrs. Billingfelt, Brown, (Mer
cer,) Coleman, Connell, Errett, Fish
or, Graham,• llenzey, Kerr, Lowry,
Olmsted, Osterhout, Robinson, Stin-
Stutzman, Taylor aud Worthing

Messrs. Beck, Brown, (Northamp
ton,) Burnett, Davie, Duncan, Jack
son Linderman, M'lntire, Miller, Na

all Democrats, voted for William A
Wallace. of Clearfield.
Mr. Wallace votcd for Rieaw
Mr. McCandletis, having paired of
with Mr. White, whO was absent, did
not,vote.
_ So it appeared that John Scott was
duly
,named by the Senate of Penn
sylvania for Senator. in Congress, from
the State of Pennsylvaiiiii; for six
years, from and after the fourth day of
March next.
HOLTSB OF REIPRBSENTATIVES

Thiriltulsou *yet. Rifilioad porn:
pauy has, recently—placed twelve
the lgansell woodeu.car .wheels On
theirCarawing room car. These wheels
cost treble the price of the Ordinary,
castiron wheels, but this i,a regaided
is of little consequence compared with
the advantages, gained by their use.—'
They ride smoothly, making conver
sation, reading, and .ergo writing, not
only possible, but an, easiiiiiile - o - rrtho.,
cars. They are made of thoroughly
seasoned din - or teak; with -steel
tire; are v6,ry durable, only one ;mei-,
dent having ever Occurred to one of
ihemy and that through the careless
ness of a workman ; and will wear
by reason of their elasticity and .41-
rability over four hundred thousand
miles, of railway, While -the, average
use of the ordinary bon wheel is but
fifty thousand miles, after which it
is necess,try 'to break it up.
It is also asserted that this wheel
is so constructed that it is impossible
for. the tire to become displaced, and
that_ the wear to the track is much
less than by the cast wheel which of
itself would'make an important saving.
The Nfansell wheel is used on the
Metropolitan Underground Railwaq
in London, and-there, where, the stop-,
pages:and starting of the trains are
very sudden and consequently ex
tremely trying, no accident has yet
occurred with them.
If this wheel prOves to have all
the merits claimed fm—itTlf - willTwe
hear, be generally adopted on tike
Hudson Itiver'lload. The increased
first cost of these wheels over the iron
wheels should not prevent railroad
corporations from adopting them, if it
is__proved by_ trial that With them hu
man life is made more safe. Their
greater durahility and the saving of
the wear and tear of the track will, it
is believed, render these wheels in the
end much the cheapest:
Thousand Miles
From the mountains of Utah, close
upon the valley of Great Salt Lake,
flashes a • dispatch, saying_ that One
thousand miles of rails have been laid
upon the Union.Pncific Railroad. - For
a distance greater than froM Washing
ton to • New - Orleans, from New York
to Mobile, or Boston to Chicago, has
this continental railroad been pushed
westward: from Omaha, which is itablf
more than foufteen hundred miles froni
New York by the nearest travelled
route. Chicago was, a few nars ago,
the " fat West ; " to-day the locomo
tive, drawing after-it not only its hea
vily laden train, but population,'man
ufactures, agriculture and eivilißtioa,
is fifteen hundred miles beyond the
,Garden_Qi_ty on the Lake. Beyond
the Missouri stretched the " Great
American Desert," unfilled, unsettled,
unexplored. The railroad, in crossing .
it, ha; opened to emigrants lands un
equalled on the continent for luxuri
ant crops of corn, wheat and greed.
The Rocky Mountains were Nature's
almost insurmountable barrier-to fur
, ther extension of population or trade.
The railway engineers have found a
pathway over which they lkansport
' crowded trains at.twenty-five Miles an
hour, while all the abundant facilities
of a well-stocked
,road are taxed to
the utmost to meet the demands made
by the freighting traffic. In inception,
execution and results, this is the grtind
est enterprise of modern times. .
We have spoken of the extent of
the traffic of the Union Pacific. It
must be borne in mind that all the
business thus far has been local trade
upon the finished part of the road
which precedes, instead of folloivs,
• emigration and the manifold business
of populous communities. And yet
'the earnings of the Union Pacific Rail
road for ,the year 1868, upon an aver
age distance- of less than 700 fluids,
were more than five million4ollara, a
fact as surprising as gratifying. Every
added mile 9pens.nevr, sources of reve
nue, and every year will see the busi
ness of every section very greatly in
creased. Add to this extriardinaxT
local traffic the trade of Utah, Neva
da, Montana and Oregon, as they are
suCcessively brought within the reach
of the U. R., and then to that
sum add the immense through trans
portation, which will be inevitable
when. the grand line to the Pacific
shall be complete, and the total can
hardly he sealized or even estimated.
• One thousand milee of thismad have
been built. Five hundred miles of the
CentrarPacifie have titan been Opened,

It is stated that the *Congressional

of testimony sufficient to bang, politi

that not less than some thirty thousand
fraudulent votes were engin New *York

was reduced,...to n'science, and had it
not received suck a sudden check by
Marshal Murray., nu doubt it would
have become of germ' application in
all ilio large cities of the Union. By
this timely action Marshitl Murray pre
vented the thirty.thonsand from be

.thirty-nine times each.=
These witnesses have testified because
those who employed them do not pay
them according to agreement. The
Committee have? sumniened •nearly
four hundred witnesses upon the one '

Distractive Fire in Philadelphia
On Thursday morning a most de
-structive rfire-oemtrretlin-the-hlock-Lof
magnificent stores ,on Chestnut street,
known as Burd:s building The fire'
originated in Caldwell's magnificent
jewelry store, and extended to Howell
& Brother's paper-hanging warehouse
in' the same block, on the corner of
Ninth. Both of these were
destroyed. The store of the Burd block
occupied by Messrs.‘r F. & E.'. B. Orno
was -reached by the fire,•and much dam
aged about the roof but otherwise is
no further injured than by the water
thrown into it...
At the, time the fire was discovered,
there were EiiX clerks of Messrs. Cald•
well & Co., asleep in the store They
were on the first floor, and were arous-.
ed byfau explosion, or by knocking
upon the store door. Four of them
soon made their appearance at the sec
ond story front windows, from which
they made their way upon the ledge
above the first story windows to the
front of 1ar..0r,n04 store, from whiCh,
when their situation -was made known
to the members of the Washington
Bose Company, they were taken by
means of ladders. They were all in
jured by fire, and internally by breath
ing_amoke, gas or steam, and were
taken to neighboring houses, where
medical aid was provided. One of
them was subsequently removed to the
Pennsylvania Hospital. His injuries
are mole severe than those of the others,
.but ho is not in a dangerous condition,.
, .
The'safes were,found to be in good
condition, and it is quite likely that the
valuables in them are not much dam

To Brevet Maj, Gen. W. A. Nichols,
A.
GENEOAL : I have the honoa to for
ward'-the following for the information
of the Lieutenant General:
The destruction of the Comanche
village by . Colonel Evans, on Christ
mas Day, gave the final blow to the
backbone of the Indian rebellion. At
midnight on Dec. 31, 1808, a delega-,.
tion of the chief fighting men of the
Cheyennes and Arrnpahoes, twenty
one in: number, arrived here on - foot,
their animals not being able to carry
them on. They said they ruled the
village, and begged for
,peace and for
'permission for their people to come in,
and asked no terms, but only for
paper. to protect them, from the opera
tions of our troops while en route,.
'They report' the tribes in mourning
for, 'their losses. Their' people'' are
starving, having eaten up all their
dogs, and finding no buffalo. We had
forced them into the canons' Or' the
eastern edge of the staked. plainv
where there was no -mall game or,
buffalo. They aro in a fix, and desire
to surrender unconditionally.
acceded to their • terms, and will
punish them juetly,4ind I can scarcely
make an error in any punishment
awarded, for, they all have blood
upon their hands. Yesterday we re
ceived a few papers, the first for a
month; and I see itelleged by - Indian
agents that Black Kettle's band were
on their' reservation at the time, they
were attacked. ` This is •a• falsehood
The reservation extends but thirty
miles up the Washita from Fort Cobb.
The - battle took place one hundred
and twenty miles up the road from
Fort Cobb. It is also alleged that the
band' was friendly. No one would
make such tin assertion who had any
regard for the truth. The young-Men
of this baud, commenced the war. I
can give their,narries: }3ome of Black

- iti=doer — oreanizcohired:silkahawlrperfect-•
ly plain; in color, and .00 - fold& in Which
it hung, closely resembled a piece of mar
' bre statuary. From its opening ,in-front
was seen a white kerchief, also, worn out
"side-ot her dress and a-plain-- . eaP-of_the_
same material, tied under the chin with
nairow strings, covered her head to the
top of her forehead.__The < Pider of
.the;
cap was intended to pass for a trill; "liut
it in fact differed from the tight, mei:lth:
fitting bodAci: the cap, only in being the
least bit less 'trio* and even. And th 6
crown of the ap was Aust. full enough to
make a motherly provision for pbilopro
genitiveness, and to peep above tile body
of the cap in a very modest little puff be
sides.
In a public room Mrs. Mott looks a
little-- woman—short and .slender. Her
height I guess to be about o..feet 2si z She is
not at all u full figure. -At first sight she
seems attenuated. But this is doubtless
to some extent the effect of the differench
between her straight-down style of dress,
and the artificially fl Iled-out fetniale fig
ures to which the eye is accustomed. Her
face-is radiant with intelligent benevo
lence and. the happiness which comes of
the attainment to, and.appropriate em-,
ployment of, the highest and best quali
ties of laustran nature.. Her'eye is gene-
trating, thoughtful, but so full of tender
'ness. Her nose is straight, well formed
and well proportioned. The mouth and
cheeks are somewhat sunken. Mrs.,7ifott
is an old lady, it will be remembered. Her
natural teeth are gone. Tho chili is of me-,
diem length, but a little more than ordin
arily prominent. The brows well over
hang the eyes, yet the upper region where
phrenologists locate the reasoning faculties
is the most prominent part of.the forehead.
It expands laterally, and pushes out for
ward, as it rises. Those who only know
'Mrs. Mott by her,, public efforts may not
suspect her maaliny mirthfulness; but I
will 4onture the guess that very few per
sons have a quicker or fuller apprehension
'of the ludicrous than she'has. The facial
angle—the favorite scientific measure of
the, elevation of human character—must
be about, or quite 90 degrees;
a height
attained to only by the very best.eharam
tars of-the highest—the Caucasian race.—
The head is high Irons forehead to crown;
is Unusually long at the very top; and is
broader at the upper portion of the sides
than at the base. The f‘me is net quite as
long as the height of the head might lead
one to expect. Perhaps age has curtailed
it on this , proportion. It, is neither a
broad nor a narrow face; but the width
across the cheek-bones. is maintained more
equally to the bottom of the face than is
well-formed face ; but in character it is
beautiful. Mrs. 3lott's voice is not re
markable in any. respect, except for its
maintained clearness and strength at her
advanced years, through a long address.
A text was taken in confordifty with

Few te'egrams received "in Washington

the nomination, by thellepublican caucus
of the New York Legislature, of Hon.
Reuben E. Fenton, vice Nom E. D. Mor

4..11 of next March. This excellent nomi
nation, which is equivalent to an election,
is not only a just tribute to an able and
patriotic statesman who has rendered im
portant services, alike to his. State and the
nation; but it is also the wisest nomina
tion that could have been niade, if even
the Now York Legislature had been dis
posed wholly to ignore past services. and
to select a man to represent the 'State' in
the 11. S. Senate with solo reference to
his capacity, integrity and general fitness
for a seat in the upper house of Con'gress.

to have business with Mr. Fenton in
