John Covodeaud the President, On the 4th of March 1857, James Buch anan Assumed the discharge of the duties of the highest of earthly stations. A few months previous a Nation of 30,000,000 of freemen had elected him to the high and responsible office into which he was then inaugurated. It was too at a trying period in the history of hare thought proper to invest him with the most honorable, responsible, and dignified office iu the world; and the individual, how ever unworthy, now holding this exalted po sition, will tcke care fo far as in him lies, that their rights and prerogatives shall never be violated in his person, fct shall pass to his successors unimpaired by the adoption of j a dangerous precedent, lie will defend them to the last extremity apatnst any unconstitu tional httcropt, come from what quarter it may, to abridge the constitutional rights of the Executive, and render him subservient to any human power except themselves. The people have nut confined the President to the exercise of executive duties. They have also conferred upon him a large mea sure of legislative discretion. No bill can become a law without his approval as repre senting the people of the United States, un less it shall pass after his veto by a majority of two thirds of both houses. In this legis lative capacity, he might, in common with the Senate and House of Iiepresentaives, in stitute an inquiry to ascertain any facts which ought to influence his judgment iu approving or vetoing any bill. This participation in the performance of legislative duties between the oo ordinate branches of the Government, ought to insyire the conduct of all of them, in their relations towards each ether, with mutual forbearance and respect. At least, each has a righl to demand justice from tho other. The cause of complaint is that the constitutional rights and immunities of the Executive have been violated m the person of the President. The trial of an impeach ment of the President before the Senate .on charges preferred and prosecuted against him by the House of lieprescntatives, would be an imposing spectacle to the world. In the result, not only his removal from the Presi dential office would be involved, but what is of infinitely of greater importance to himself, his character, both in the eyes of the present cur country. A sectional party, a party whose principles if carried out in the admin- I and of future generations, might possibiy be iatration ijf the government would have re- tarnished. The disgrace cast upon him, suited in the dissolution of the Union, or a long and bloody civil war, had been defeated by his election. He was known to ba a Statesman, who kijew no North no South un der the Constitution, and ho stood pledged to maintain inviolate the Constitution and its Compromises. lie had also previously de clared that he wouU not be a candidate for re-election to the cCice into which ho wa3 then inaugurated, and consequently had no motive for doing wrcng. Under the a circcm ttances he bad a right to expect to receive the support of the patriotic portion of his fellowjciti- zens, and at the same time to encounter all the slanders and calumnies against Lis public and private character, that the ingenuity of the Disunooists, he had defeated could invent. And o it has been; while the Democracy have fearlessly sustained him, the minions of Black Republicanism have persucd him with ficndlike malignity. It will not be their fault if the fature generations of men, do not regard him as the lowest tnd vilest of mankind.. Our readers are aware that we have been consistent in our support of the administra tion of Mr. Buchanan. But we do not feel disposed to quarrel with those who believed that certain measures that he advocated were wrong. If they honestly thought so they had a right to think so. But they had no right, because his views did not square with theirs to assail his character for honesty and integ rity, or to charge him with having in his offi cial capacity countenanced bribery, fraud and corruption. And the truth is many of them were reluctant to enter openly on the work. I joyed all the offices and honors which my coun would in some degree be reflected upon the character of the American people who elec ted him. Hence the precautions adopted by the Constitution to secure a fair trial. On such a trial it declares thai the chief Justice shall preside. This was doubtless because the framers of the constitution believed it to be possible that the Vice President might be biased by the fact that "in case of the remo val of the President from office" the same shall devolve on tho Vice President." The arguments contained in the above ex tract, are clear and convincing. It will be an evil day for our country, when a few dem agogues in Congress shall have it in their power to degrade the chief magistrate of the Republic, by making with impunity vague charges against his official conduct, and car rying on investigations in the desperate hope of discovering that he has done something worthy of ceusure. The President does not fear an investigation, but he feels it to be his duty to maintain his constitutional rights If any act or acts cf his administration are to be investigated, he demands that he shall be proceeded against in the manner the Consti tution directs. His record as President is without a stain and he is willing that it shall be submitted to the closest possible scrutiny, and investigation, if his enemies desire it, but he demands that it sha 11 be done in a lawful manner. lie says. I again declare emphatically, that I make th's protest for no reason personal to myself, and I do it with perfect respect for the House of Representatives, in which I had the honor of serving for five successive terms. I have lived long iu this goodly land, and have en- Thcy knew that the task was an odious and dLgraceful one, When the time arrived far performing the dirtiest part of the work they cast abcut them for an appropriate tool to do it with. They soon found that John Covode a member of Congress from this State was try could bestow. Amid all the political storms through which I have passed, the pres ent is the first attempt which has ever been made, to my knowledge, to assail my person al or official integrity.and this when the time is approaching when I shall voluntarily retire trom the service of my country.

I do not fear even this because I cherish an hum ble confidence that the gracious Being who has hitherto defended and protected me against the shafts of falsehood and malice will not desert me now, when I have become old an gray-headed.

He is below par. We are glad however that the welcome to all the glory he can acquire in prominent leaders of the party had too much manhood to consent to becoma openly respon sible for the movement. They left the dis graceful responsibility with John Covode, who is mean enough and ignorant enough to glory io his shame. The Day is iircakln?. The official returns of the recent elections in Connecticut and Rhode Island, furnish an other and a convincing proof that the sober tecond thought of the people is always right. The Black Republicans have been defeated in their stronghold; the Jast pi aces where they anticipated such results They are justly dismayed at these evidences of a radical change in public sentiment -in the North which must inevitably lead to their overwhel ming defeat next fall . The day of their glory is over, and tho star of democracy is once more in the ascendent. The result in Connecticut may justly be regarded as a democratic victory. The Republican major ity is so meagre, and the democratic gains over the election of last and former years so large, that no reasonable man will doubt that the current is running in favor of the democ racy, and that they will carry the State next fall without any difficulty. In Rhode Island the victory is complete. All honor to her gallant democracy for having achieved the first democratic victory of 1SG0. The Dem ocratic party has recently passed through a trying ordeal. The timid and faint hearted feared a few months ago that it could not en ter the campaign of 1860 with, ,apy reason able hopes of success. We never- belonged to that number. We always believed that it was still full of its original spirit in a word that it was not dead but slumbered, and that it -would come forth into the political arena in I860, fresh and vigoro us with rest, and lik Achilles the Grecian hero, mova forward in spite of the assaults of its foes "Resistless in its Course, And seeming a match for more than human force" And so it has been. At this eaily period of the campaign, the democracy are every where preparing for the contest with the en thusiasm, energy and vigor of men confident of success They have already achieved tvo important victories, defeating the Black Republicans where they boasted they were invincible. A large majority of the American people love their country and its institutions and will not knowingly belong to a party the ine vitablc tendency of whose principles is to de stroy that country and those institutions They are everywhere beginning to perceive the treasonable tendency of the principles of Black Republicanism, and are determined a that it shall be put down. The reign of fa naticism and treason is over, and the Abol ition leaders, the endorsers and eulosist of John Brown's treason will soon be without a corDoral's euard to Eustain them. If the Charleston Convention performs iti work prop erly, the Democrcy will elect its nominees by a majority equal to that lor Pierce and King inlS52. gifj. lias the Cambria County. Agricultural Society ceased to exist? The time for the annual election of officers has long since pass ed, and we can't see how a eociety can pre serve its vitality without officers. The mat ter should be looked to by the members of the Society at once. Agricultural Fairs are exeat "Institution s" and tho Farmers of D Cambria County arc disposed to encourage them. They not only assist in the improve ment of the noble science of Agriculture, but tend to promote harmony, sociability and good feeling among the citizens of the county Let us have a Fair next fall by all means By the way, we heard it suggested sometime asro, that the next Fair should be held in Johnstown. "Time about is Fair play" and therefore as far as we are concerned we have no oLiections to urse. But we are not cer- j -0 tain that our Johnstown neighbors desire it, or would be willing to assume the trouble of makin? the necessary arrangements. Who a w speaks? We are all attention. Since the above was set up we received an advertisement for the election of officers, which will be found in another column. iTS7Weclip the following highly com plementary notice of the late Legislature of this State, from the Philadelphia Inquirer . The Inquirer is one of the leading Black Republican papers of the State, and certain ly it3 testimony against the reprcsentaves of its own party, is entitled to some weight. Its comments are severe but they are meri ted. .Adjournment of the Legislature. Yesterday morninir. at twelve o'clock, the Legislature of the Commonwealth adjourned sine die, after a long and disgraceful'struggle over the General Appropriation bill, in refer ence to the Salaries of the Judges of the Su preme Uourt and the Courts of Philadelphia county. The whole question was. whether the expenses of the State should be increased twenty-sixhuudred dollars to more adequate ly remunerate an over-Xrorkcd, Lit under paid, Judiciary. Had it been to increase the pay of the legislators themselves, not a dis senting voice would have been heard, and with great self-complacency our legislative So lons would have lauded to the skies the great value oi their inestimable services and the immense sacrifice of private interests tlftv had made in leaving their quiet homes and" I lovely families, and honest business, only to 1 serve their dear fellow citizens in the coun cils of the State, and the appropriation; would nave passed unanimously. fcuch is the contrast between the values men place upon their own labors and the ser vices of others. But both Houses of the Lcsislature have adjourned, and for that one act we tender them our hearty thanks; for never in the history of l ennsyivauia. lias a session been marked by more corrupt, wicked intriguing than the present. Every good citizen feels the blush of honest indignation tingling his cheeks when he thinks of their proceedings. No measure. however beneficial, could stand the slightest chance of passing, unless by the profuse ex penditure of money. Almost every man, with some noble exceptions, had his price, and, if common rumor be true, it was an enormous price. If it could not be paid in the hard cash, secure prospective profits were just as good. ockemcs were devised for depriving the city of Philadelphia of the control cf her streets, and men who had never been within a hundred miles of the State House steeple were seeking to obtain valuable urivileees for nothing, with the intention of selling them out for hundreds of thousauds of dollars. The most iniquitous proceeding was the com bining two, three, four, and often as many as six bills, of the most incongruous description. lor tne purpose of giving strength to mea sures which could not stand alone without each other's aid. The remedy for these evils lies in tue hands of the citizens. Let every man determine to vote only for those whom he knows to bs honest and capable, without so servile an ad herence to party, and we should very soon have a Legislature worthy of the Keystone State. - Proceedings of th Car ofCambrla Countj.

The steamship Fulton arrived at this port this morninr, having on board two prisoners, who had been sent to the United States by the United States Consul at South- ! ampton. The papers and facts already sub- rait ted iu the case show one of the most fiend- ! ish tragadies ever conceived of by a human ! bciog. It appears that the bark Acna left the port for the Brazilian coast in June last the crew consisted of Captain Tuthill, EI muud P.

On one occasion, because one of the seamen did not move quick enough he was struck a blow on the foreheai which knocked his left eye out.
