TIIECONNELLSVIblili RAILROAD BILL.
Tho bill referred to failed in the S 'lis
nto on tho lbth inst, by four votes.
Whether or not wo consider this ns
showing tho probable f ito of a g nural
railroad law, wo must adaut in this case
that the monopoly proved strongest.
Tho prospects are not good for its pas
BJg). Wo havo noted with interest
that meeting! were held iu adj lining
counties, and that a il-.'torintnntioii was
expressed to resent tho injary at tho
polls, regardless ot party sentiment
in case their representatives disobeyed
tho wishes of their constituents.
The matter of a General Ktilroad Bill
is yet before tho Lgnlalnro. It there
is any one part of our C jminonwealth
that it will alT.'Ct more than another il is
Greene County. Its de'eat prostrates
all hope? of future a Ivancement. Our
hidden wealth. which his so Ion;; awaited
tho call of enterprise to comi 1 n th' will
bo remanded. 1) lom-d for years past
to the withering and crushing ell jets ol
monopolies, who never knew, nor ever
will, when their sell'nh appetites nre
satiated i no dir ct ou'-lct for our pro.
duets; no means of itijress; no comfort
able, in fact, n ithiag.that can be called
a thoroughfare, the want of which we
hive so grievously fe't all this and more
wo tvill be compelled lo bear for timo to
oomo. Iu its success wo predict a rem
cdy. Oar present representatives of this
section, we are pleased to know, favor
.the movement, but could not the people
of our county asscniblo in convention
and send up a voice of warning to tho
capital, that would ir.fluonco some who
in the future expect emolument t
their bands? It is ouri'.utylo cast iu
our mite. Lot somo of our solid, bitsi.
ness men move in the matter nt once
Appoint a day when the men ot nil par
ties may assemble at a states' place, and
show tl e world at largo that we are not
imbeciles, that we would escape the
thralldom tho ignorance of somo years
jinoe f ubjeoted us to.
Wo trust that tho defeat of the Con
tiellsvillo bill will hasten action.
BOLDIER3' AND SAILORS' BOUNTY.
Tho IIouso passed a bill to equalize
bounties of soldiors nnd sailor. It is
a substitute for th'j law of last session,
and gives each soldier who has sorved
any timo eight and one-third dollars per
month, wth a deduction of all Federal
State and local bounties which ho may
havo rooetved. AH of tho Eastern men
voted against tho bill on tho ground
that soldiors from their States would re
ceive nothing, as thoy had boon paid aN
ready buoU larga bounties by those
States. The Western man voted for
the bill for the contrary reason. It
passod by 91 to C2.
This bill, if not curtailed m its for
Tuition by certain conditions and pro.
visions, wo consider as near tho equaliz ing
of bounties as Congress will ever
get. Let the S.-nato pass it ns abovo,
giving to all honorably discharged Sol -Jiors,
without restriction, the pro ra'a
for timo sorved, and it will rendur uni
versal satisfaction lo tho men who, above
all othors, should bo satisfied.
Mr. Searight, tho sagacious and
patriotio (?) Senator from Fnyefio Co,
'has introduced a bill in tho Legislature
to inflict tho death penalty on negroes
for 'committing outrages on white
women. Tho editor of the Crawford
Republican reoommends that ho add a
clause to hang white man for similiar
otrag.is on black women, and thus
require oopporheads to bo equally
virtuous as tho Wicks, ui.d at the same
time prevent tho mtuyling of copper so
freely witli t bony,
FORGERIES.
A pamraph is Koing the round of the
iXonocralio papers, which they repro
lent to bo an extract from u speech of
Daniel Webster, delivered "inoro than
hirty years ago," They havo been
dialleuged timo and rnd again by the
lladteal press to Hulitanii tu Iho usscr
ion by prudiicii.;.; the speech of Uto groat
Uatosnian from which they mako this
ixtraet It is needless to say tlmy have
tailed. Any one acquainted with his
writings 'unow it to bo an untruth.
So, loo, "Brick" Pomeroy's libel casn
with Geii'l. Duller. Tho shameless
originator had it well bols'.ercd with
falsehoods, and it was widely circulated
Koai-liiutr tho General's ear In comes
out in a card in thu N. V. Tribn e over
Ins own signature, slumping it a forgery,
As nil ndvertisin card it did "Uriel;"
good servio?. His character, liu had
none to sacrifice,
II seems ihey adopt Shcnd ill's idea
not '1'hil' Sheridan, ho never lies
that a lie is never well told unless it ex

Jilt SIIELLAU.VRUBiM SPEIXUI,
This intilliblo document, which wo
present our readers t idiy, c.vvn"nls
itself to the good ssnse of all who nro
not alUieted with ni'.oinnvitiiu on poli
ties Wo might in military parlance
style it "shirt, sharp, nnd djjisive."
Contrasted with the sop'-.nnrij cH'iiiou
of Joo L Di.vsin, recently circulated
in our couniy.it is the niastci peiee beside
tho productioi of the novicj It is a
lucil expose of tho tenets preahed and
adhered to by sham Djinecracy. Sjtting
forth iu bold unmistakoablo language
the folly and liu danger of their mentis
sistent dogmas an I sophistry.
Wo would bespeak a careful reading
"SWINGIS" HOUND."
D ..Mnocniny with the ingratitude that
charae!eriz"S the party, already attacks
tho lVesi djit, fir the g'owing nilimai'y
between him and Congress, whereit? he
yields the ground so stubbornly held
I during tho last campaign. The N. Y.
iVo!il with a frankness hitherto nnas
! snmed admits the truth of tho f-llow
ing facts, and at the same luno "gets
one in bsautiful" on tho President's
"mug."
'It the President h eapibl i of yield
ing, it would have ben better to save
Iho country from this long turmoil by
yielding long ago. By his vigorous
opposition to Congress he has exasper
ated the radicals, and edaea'ed Hie
S ii l Ii into stii'.ihoiiiness At an earlier
stage, the South would have submitted
moro easily, i n, I Congress liuve liei n
exulting. The Presi lent cannot justi
fy himself eithe1' morally or logically in
kreping everything at log.'iheads for
so long n period, it' the quarrel is 'o bo
settled at lust by Congress having its
own way. I To should either not yi 'Id
at all, or have yielded sooner and saved
all this gratuitous mitchief."
How many of Iho U'orUs' readers in
these parts see it in the same light?
Tiiomvs Ji.-.KiTiiso'x tho author of tho
Declaration of Independence, and to
whom 1) nnocrats love to appeal as tho
f .muder ot their party, says in his letter
lo Judge Hoan, Sept, Cth, 1810: 'In.
dependence can bo trusted no where but
with ths people in mass; they are inh
rontly independent ot ail but moral law.'
And this ho said when speaking of the
Supremo Court as tho last resort. Ho
also said: 'Oar Judges are as honest as
other men nnd not more ho.' And again,
'As or tho safety of society, we commit
honest maniacs to lludlam, so, Judges
from tho bench, when their orrouioiis
biases nre leading us to ili.-solulion It
may indeed injure them in favor or for
luiio, but it saves the liepublio, which is
tho Supremo law.' Notwithstanding
these sentiments of Jefferson, tho Con
servatives (alias Domocrats) throw up
their caps for him and shout aloud over
the late decisions of the Supreme Court,
deciding that Congress cannot pass any
law requiring qualifications of practicing
attorneys in the Courts. Though the
Courts nro created under tho Constitu.
tion by Congress, nnd Congress may
require certain qualiliculioiis for Judges,
but as soon as the Court is created il ba
coms n master of the creator, nnd denies
tho creator any power to require qualifi
cations of attorneys. Tim Court holds
that it has the power to require a good,
fair character, and of course it the Court
thought treason a blur upon an attorney
it could exoiudo. - So theOourt holds, or
rather it is the feeling of the Court, that
Itehellion against tho Government is u
trilling matter, not comparable' to petty
misdemeanors or even immoralities,
Tho people never accepted the Drod
Scolt decision sustaining Slavery, much
h ss will they accept those sustaining the
Rebellion.

j A FHW TIIOUOIITd.
j Tim war c'oud of rebellion pissed
, over and the bright sunshine of peace
smiled upon us. Trie industrial inter
ests of the country had to some extent
become paral;7.;d. "Tito plow stood
still in the li tld of promise," and eve
ry thing b"gau to sliovv lint war wis
wasting mil country. H it, when peaie
came whit a minvmiiry change. A
wholesoma reiction e.iliveued and ins
vigor.ited every h most man's heart,
and every thing bi I fair that an nbuu 1
aut proipurity w ml 1 f illo.v in the foot
steps of p.j km. I iio v ask tin hmest
man, aro we realizing or enjiung
pea .o and proiperily ? . Wlrm the brave
and honored Soldier was welcomed to
his home, his heart was light, buoyant
and resolute. II) grasped the plo-v bj
the handles, but ere he tiirnol many
furrows ho was comptilled to observe
tho situation. Another war is threat
ening. If ho sows I o has no assurance
that, lief ire reaping time ho will not be
called forth to conquer another band of
traitors. I lo sees Herculean ( flirts
being made by grot and influential
(but not good) men to firco triitors, ot
tha deepest dn, into the councils of tho
nation s and t hreats made by no less a
porsonago than President Johnson I hat
tho militiry arm shall he usa I in their
behalf.
Now this state ot alTiirs conM have
benn obviated, had President Johnson
(afor llooth made him President) Said
as an old fanner would say t his sons.
"Coma biysl here's work for you. You
know how its done, but I will nlvise
you. Here are thirteen States that
havo suspended their relationship to
this government by acts of hostility nnd
rebo'lion, thoy are now submissive and
penitent and dmiro being restored to
their full relationship with the governs
mont politically, socially, &o. .This wu
will do, but before doing so wo want
somo guarantee that will forever set
aside the possibility of another rebellion
originating iu tho samo quarter. Wo
on, make -your test oaths, nnd enforce
them, throw up such protco'ioiia around
Congress that none but good true, and
loyal moil can enter.''
It Andrew Johnson had said a tew
words liko tho forgoing to Congress, nt
the proper timo, what a diliaivnt stata
of nfl'iirs there would be now. The
loyal element iu iho South would have
gained tho ascendancy. Loyal men
would have been sent to nsk admission
to tho councils of tho nation, the machi

in his power to disgraco ns. Our in

as though hostile armies wore yot in

history. The poor, old, npostato, ho

a visionary notoriety that his weak and

of "My l'oi.u v" k.
LIO I IT AT LAST!
The Cjmufrcial of Monday last says
the proceedings in Congress nnd tho
news from Washington iu general,
touching the question of reconstruction,
are ot tho highest importance. A com
plete reconciliation of Congress and tho
President is on the point ot consilium i
tion. The President gracefully, and
with apparent sincerity, yields every I
thing. Oar special dispatches sot forth I
the tonus i f reconciliation and give a I
history of the preliminary steps with in-1
teresting particularity,
The plan to be adopted provides for I
dividing the rebel States into military J
districts, which, until civil governments
lire restored, will be govern 'd by mill-1
tary cjinuiau luis d .(signaled ' by iho
Presidjial. The Consiitiiti onal Anion. 1

governments; nil male persons of proper i
age, without regard lo race or color, ;
uru to be voters Irom tho Mart, an. I ,
whenever a State shall thus reorganize
nnd elo 't representatives liiey are to be i
admitted to seats in Congress
The text, ol 'th .. iil-iii will be found in
our dispatches. It. goes to the bottom
of an I comprehends the entire business
It embraces every essential idea fir
which Congress has contended, and in
some respects gees even furl her than a
majority ut, one timo would have insist
ed on going In brief, it inflicts a
penalty for treason, seiures equal suf
fago, disfranchises lea ling rebels, r
palliates llie rebel, and makes sacred the
f.-deral debt Audio all t Ins. il. is almost
ab-olutely cclain, the Presid-'iil gives
