rIPThe Reading Eagle is in trouble
in regard to raising funds to carry it
the coming campalgn.: It proposes to
have printed a large number of twenty
five cent certificates, similar_ to those
used in Sunday Schools for missionary
purposes, and get every Democrat to
buy one I This is calling fiir quarters
at an early stage of the :fight. Is it
intended that these certificates should
serve as rewards for good conduct or
be used as Democtatic currency ?
IMPORTANT DECISION.—In the Su

the case of the Commonwealth vs—va
rious Railroad Companies of the State,

of Common Pleas of Dauphin county,
which had declared, the act_ imposing
a tonnage tax upon railroads unconsti

we are not prepared for a Nzar with
England.; that he, cannot understand

the Government for extravagance in
paying honest debts, and defending
their own Legislature Gtr extravagance
in creating. new ones of doubtful hon

The Registiw Law Decided Coia,.

The - :Democracy, feeling that their
only hope of success in this fall's cam:*
paign. was based alone upon their old,
system - of illegal and fraudulent voting;,
determined, if possible, to kaire the
Registry ..Law declared uncenstitu=

Deinocracy. Well knowing. that Phil--
nclelphia offered the widest-and most
'fertile field for illegal voting,, our leg
isfators PaUsed additional enactments
for; the. protection of the ballot-box in
that city, and for this 'reason the law
is'especially distasteful 'a4d destructive
to the Demdcracy. 'Upon ;Otese pro
visions principally did Sharswood seem
to base his opinion as to the Unconsti:-
tutionality of the law, alleging that it
destroyed that-freedom ciiid'equnlitY of
electiOns which the Constitution of the
State demands: .

Masterly argunent.by able . and. le A trii t
ed counsel on both sides, his opinion
has been reversed, and, all the provi
sions of-the law declared to be iti con,
fortnity to the Constitution of the State
The opinion of the Court waif deliver
ed by Justice Agnew, who answers_
the sophisms of Justice Sharswood in
reference to the ineqqality of its' pro
visions and requirements in the fellow-.
ing masterly and conclusive manner:
" That election is free and equal.
where all the qualified electors of the
precinct are carefully distinguished
from the unqualified, and are protected
in the right to.deposit their ballots in
safety, and unprejudiced by, fraud..
That election is 'not free and equal'
where the true electors'ainliiii - separtit:
ed from The false, where the ballot is
not deposited in safety, or where .it is
supplanted by fraud.. It is, therefore,
the day of the 'Legislaturii' to- secure
freedoni and equality-by such regula
dons as will exclude die unqualified
and Tillow the qualified
. only to vote.
A free aad m. equal electiori- is the end;
regulations to attain it are the means.
If the, end bo attained, it: is evident no
question of constitutional law can arise
dn.'tlie uniformity or diversity of • the
regulations by . which the end is roach
ed. . , .
-441 a - necessity, laws passed to pro
bible a given object must be controlled
or' modified by the circumstances sbr-`
rounding the object, and must tie fram
ed to meet the exigencies standing in
the way of, the-end reache.d. Yf
UnifortniA Peg,ulation be unsuited to
'differentocalities, the end must be at
tained by diversity. If; in one part of
the State a:system, secures to electors
a free'and equal election, but fails to
secure it in anotinlr part, because of the
difference
,of circumstuntes,'What prin
ciple of constitutional law, makes it tin-'
lawful to enact other provisions to coun
teract the circumstances and secure the
true purpose of the Constitution? o 0 d
se . nsc, good order, and sound morality
require this diversity of regutation
when it secures the end ; and it is a
great fallacy to Sulnititutt;' uniformity
of regulation for a free and equal elec-
dot ''
The Court then go on to say. that
there may be defects in the law. but
they can be disclosed alone by (Ape
rience,,and when disclosed eon cattily
be remedied. That it is a part of the
political system of the State on which
its offices and very continuance depend;
and,that they as,a court have no right
to put their hands upon the whole sys
tem en' the grounds of hardship and .
for defects of regulation Whieh are not
clear or pairiable,yiolations of theletter
or spirit of the Constitution.
The:reverial of Sliarswoad's opinion
is a hard lelaw

but a source of gratification to elkiiho

cause - of resetting — the State from -the do ,
minion orignorance and dishonesty: They
tutted as patriots, national. and domestic.
They ignored - the old party names; ond — tYs - - -
sociated as comrades devoutly struggling
for the public salvation. So it is the
greatest absurdity—it is an insult to the
grand motives which governed them—to
call them by any of the old party names.
Reeond: the fight here was upon re
construction, and the victorious' party
which basset Virginia tree stood upon .
General Grant's platform : mid that party
'is now uhsorhed in more important mut
ters Nan bunting for a pretty taut:. They =
are endetivorieg to cemplet: the great
work that has , bean so.propitiously begun
and they desire to go on with It in entire
harmony with- the,FederatAdministration
until it is coAummated. Their party re
lations depend'ulten the-events that art to

at Washington. At present, we repent,
therstand on the Grant. platform, dui--
ring,, in proof of theiryense of the favor ex
tended to them by Gen. Grant, to go on In
harmony wi•li the Federld Executive.
And
'Third : it is plain that parties Must be
reformed. The old issues and the parties
that were formed upon them must give
place to now issues and new parties. We
do not believe there will ever be a Demo
cratic party in Virginia Cor if Chore
should be, it will be so altered in every re
spect that it will resemble the old one in
name alone. The revolution in, the theo
ry of our Government has taken away the
main . pillar of the old 'Democracy: Nor
do we think that a party bearing the name
Whig will any more resemble that which.,
existed before Xhe war.
• The old portiesxnust all pass away. The
new cbrystalizations out. of the debris.of,
-the'cdd, and their combinations with thd
now issues that must groit'out;of - the new
order of. our militical system,' are inow,
'steadily going, on, and Virginia will not
he-ready to take sides until they.take,
- shape and have the breath of life blown
'lnto them. As yet, she is in the chiVsalis
state, endeavoring to expend her limbs mad
recover her strength in the genial sunshine,
which has been introduced through

Church Union.
The Presbyterian Uturch has united Its
two groat branches the Old, and Now
St:Monis, and henceforth will be known as
one church. The General Assemblies of
both branches. have unanimously adopted
the plan of union, which, however, remains
to be approved formally by an affirmative
vote of two-thirds of ihe Presbyteries, and
to be 'put in operation at an adjourned
meeting ef Abe United Assemblies to be
hold-in Pittsburg next fall. -The separa
tion took place' in-1888, end in the mean
time both bodies have grown vigorously.
The particular point upon which the sepa
ration took place is hitrdly remembered at
this time, and to the great multitude of
the church members of the present gener
_atioria the seinffiationims always appeared.
unnecessary and unwise. The union has
been - made without, any concession by
,
either side. 'No low, reguiatior.s or policy
of either body, not already in force:in the
other, is to be binding up'on . the United
Church until formally adopted, by thecon
solidated assemblies. Whatever difference
there marbe in the - dis . cipline find - rules - of
the two bodies will--have.to be -reconciled,
hereafter, by . a General Assembly of the
United Church..

Tics Nos York Methodist says: The
qtl'estion of lay delegation in our church is
virtually decided. The. returns are not all
in, hut the last hope of our hrothron who
have taken the negative s.de—the .rural
districts—' , -Conclusively fails them. The
ratio of the affirmative majority remains
steady. The circuitS and small, stations
aro in accord on this question . with the
great centres of population to which they
are More or ICU contiguous. The elections
holdain the latter part of Tune were more
generally favorable to lay delegation than
those of the first two weeks of the month.
Upwards of seventy thousand votes hive
been recorded
,by us, and there will un
doubtedly be lifty thousand more to report.
The acceptance of lity delegation by the
people' virtually make it an accomplished
fact in the church. As far as the General
C.Snforence can pledge the ministry, the
ministry are pledged to the conces
sion upon the clearmchihition of the desire
of the people for it. What. remains to be
done .is the. formal completion of the
measures initiated in Chicago, May, IN&
