An exchange says.'
Section 3d of article 9th of the State
Constitution declares that "no man can of
right be compelled to attend, erect or sup
port any place of worship, or maintain any
ministry against bis consent," "and no pre
ference shall ever be given by law to any
religious establishment, or modes of wor
ship." The late godh?se Cameron Legis
lature established a partisan mode of wor
ship by the appointment of denominational
chaplains, and compelled the people to
maintain those ministers by taking from the
Slate Treasury S6OO wherewith to pay
them for conducting worship in the Leg
islative halls. By a strict construction ef
the Constitution, the payment of money to
ehaplains—so-called —is unlawful. In
New Jersey legislative prayers have to be
paid for as stationery.
THKKB HUNDRED DOLLARS of this prayer
money was fvbbed and brought home by
the pious pot-bellied parson from Wyom
ing—J akey Kennedy. This, too, in addi.
tion to the SIOOO, —with books, stationery,
and other incidentals, which he took for
his regular pay. (We understand he voted
to make this item several hundreds more.)
Thinking doubtless that with Susquehanna
to fall back OD, bis reelection was sure.
As Jakey can certainly depend upon the
woolies of that county for support, he will
no doubt appropriate this extra S3OO of
prayer money to his long cherished project
—the building of the monument over that
nigger deserter brother. In such case the
other brethren would be happily relieved
from the payment of their subscriptions to
that purpose. Besides, it would be a big
joke on the "Copperheads," who always
have to pay their gbare of the taxes. They
would in this way be made unwiiliog con
tributors, not oDly to blasphemous negro
worshipping prayera, but to the nigger
moqument too.
If this is not as supposed, pray tell us,
Jakey, to what pious uses this pious!) plun
dered prayer money, will bo appropriated ?
We pause for a reply.
The following is Important to Ilolders
of Government Bonds : *
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, April 2, 1867.
In consequence of the increasing tronble,
wholly without. practical benefit, arising
from notices which are constantly received
at the Department, respecting the loss of
coupon bonds which are payable to the
bearer, and of treasury notes issued and
remaining in blank at tbe time of loss, it
becomes neeessary to give the public no
tice :
That tbe government cannot protected
will not undertake to protect, the owners of
such bonds and notes against the conse
quences of their own fault or misfortune.—
Hereafter all bonds, notes, and coupons,
payable to bearer, and treasury notes issued
and remaining io blank, will be paidio the
party presenting tbam, io pursuance of the
regulations of the department, in tbe course
of regular business, and no attention will
tbe paid to caveats which may be filed fo.
he purpose of preventing such paymentr

Invaluatar; Bankruptcy.
In ilie provisions of the new Bankrupt
bill, so far as they effect voluntary applies- .
tions, are now generally understood, bat j
those which give to creditors the power of
proceeding to make their debtors, bankrupts
are not so well known. They are much
more extensive than like provisions in for- i
• I*l
mer acts, which have been iu force in this
country, and they are important to be un- '
derstood. The causes which will author
ize a creditor to proceed against his debtor ,
are as follows:
First. The voluntary departure of the
debtor from the State, district or Territory
of which he is an inhabitant, with intent to
to defraud his creditors.
Second. Concealment by a debtor, to
avoid the services of ajlegal process, in
anv action of debt or upon demand.
Third. Concealment or removal of prop
erty, to prevent its being attached, taken
or sequestered on legal process,
Fourth. The assignment, gift, sale, con
veyance or transfer of estate property,
rights or credits, in this country or abroad,
with the intent to delay, defraud or binder
creditors.
Fifth. Being arrested and held in custo
dy under mesne process of exclusion for a
debt valid and provable under the Bank
rupt law eqceeding one hundred dollars, if
such process is not charged by payment
or by law within seven days.
Sixth. Actual imprisonment by process
in a civil action upon a demand exceeding
one hundred dollars, founded on contract
for more than seven days.
Seventh. The payment, gift or transfer,
sale or convej-ance of property or money
to any person in contemplation of bank
ruptcy, the party being bankrupt or insolv
ent at the time.
Eighth. Giving a warrant to confess
judgment, in contemplation of bankruptcy.
Ninth. Suffering property to be taken
in execution, or on legal process with an
intent to give a preference to one or more
creditors.
"Tenth. Suffering property to be taken
in execution, or on legal process with in
tent to g've a prefeencc to indorsers, bail,
or sureties, with intent to delay or to defeat
the operations of the net.
Eleventh, The fraudulent stoppage or
suspension by a banker, trader or merchant
of payment of his commercial paper,* not
resumed withtn fourteen days.
Any persou thus liable for the acts des
ignated may be made a bankrupt within
six months after their preparation, on the
petition of one or more of his creditors, the
aggregate of whose debts amount to $250.
Nor is this all. The transaction which
caused the bankruptcy is void, and the as
signs may recover back property transferr
ed or money paid by the bankrupt; pro
vided, that the person receiving it had rea
sonable cause to believe that a fraud was
intended, or that the debtor was insolvent.
And furthermore, such per SOD SO implica
ted in the fraud, if a creditor, shall not be
allowed to prove his debt against the bank
rupt, and, must loose it altogether.
It will thus be seen that this act not on
ly gives to the debtor who has been honest
but unfortunate, the means of relieving
himself from his burden, but it guarantees
to the creditor a remedy against fraudu
lent practices ; renders dispositions of prop
erty in favoritism and preference void, and
punishes not only the party making such
preference, but him who is to receive the
benefit. Against involuntary bankrupt,
orders of arrest and imprisonment may be
issued, and they may be either confined or
made to give bail for their appearance.—
These regulations may effect business very
much, and it is sht duty of every one hav
ing transactions with others to make him
self master of the directions of the law, so
that he shall not render himself innocently
liable to punishment.
A HOME FOR INVALID SOLOIERS. —We
to-day publish the list of prizes, plan of
drawing, &c.. of the committee having in
charge the matter ot securing a home for
Invalid soldiers of Pennsylvania.
The object is a laudable one. Of the
measures adopted to secure it, a leading
Philadelphia paper says:
It is well known that all efforts to ob
tain voluntary subscriptions sufficient to
erect a Soldiers 1 Home have been without
avail. In furtherance of the object, how
ever, the Legislature of Pennsylvania have
passed an act dated March Bth, 1867, cre
ating a corporation of which Major General
George G. Meade is president, and Gener
al Horatio G. Siekels is treasurer, with an
efficient board of supervisors, who have
the power to distribute to the holdets of
certificates, a large number of immensely
valuable gifts, consisting of diamonds,
pearls, emerals, rubies, &c., purchased from
citizens of the Southern States during the
rebellion, and which articles will soon be
exhibited in this city. By this scheme it
is confidently anticipated a large fund will
be created towards the erection of the
Home. A great feature of the affair con
sists in the fact that every purchases of the
certificates becomes a contributor to this
National Home fund, and at the same time
has a direct interest in the distribution of
the rare gems mentioned above. The de
tails of the entire scheme will be conducted
in a perfectly fair and honorable manner.
The site for the Home has already been
purchased, and consists of thirty acres of
land, used by General Meade during the
battle of Gettysburg at his head quarters.
The plan has been approved by ex Gover
nor Curtin, and a large number of promi
nent millitary beroes."
An exchange says, "There is no hope
for the South without something that will
pass for money." Have tbey no raps
down there ? That is about all yrt have
for money in the North.
The Message of Governor English *
The inaugural message of Gov. ENGLISH
to the CONNECTICUT Legislature, is a docu
ment that will repay perusal. A large
portion of it is devoted to national issues,
the discussion of which is clear and con
clusive The Governor takes strong Dem
ocratic ground, but in terms so dignified
and so courteous as Dot to offend any but
his most bitter partisan opponents. Appa
rently anticipating criticism for treating
these topics at such length, Governor ENG
LISH says: 4, 1 have thus particularly bro't
to your attention these acts of the federal
Congress, because in any judgment their
tendency is to revolutionize the character
of our gouemmcnt, and, therefore, they
vitally concern the people of CONNECTI
CUT." One paragraph in this connection
presents two points so forcibly that we re
produce it entire;
Will the precedent thus set by Congress
be forgotten? Will the Constitution, which
is impotent to restrain the fury of a major
ity to-day, become the sacred shield it
once was for the raimority to-morrow ?
Will the sword that is so easily drawn to
establish a constitution now, be allowed to
rest in its sheath if needed to overthrow a
constitution hereafter ? It has been the
honest boast and just glory of the soldier
that he has saved to our people their old
flag, without a star displaced or a stripe
broken —but useless has been the sacrifice
if the people no longer retain their faith
in constitutional government. If the char
acter of our liberties has been lost, nothing
has been won. More than ever, at the
| present time, should any infraction of the
Constitution be regarded as a public calam
ity. By the vast increase of our public
indebtedness every question which con
cerns the government credit comes home
to every in the land, J3y that credit all
values are measured. It lies at the foun
dation of all our wealth, our industry—of
society itself. No calamities of the past
can exceed those which will befall ns if the
public credit should give way. But how
is it to be preserved if the supreme law of
the land is itself repudiated? In what
market of the world is that government
trusted which is swayed by revolutionary
factions, intent only upon the gratification
of ambition or the indulgence of partisan
roseutment? Had the efforts of Congress
been properly directeJ, the industry and
trade of the whole country would long
since have felt the grateful influence and
the public credit been strengthened.
Thad. Stevens Writes a Letter,
Senator "Wilson, who is down in the
South kissing his culled friends and prom
ising a restoration of the Union and a rep
resentation in Congress on the adoption of
negro suffrage, meets a rebuff from
Thad. Stevens: Nothing short of
stealing Sou thorn property will do for
Thad. Re writes of one of Wilson's
speeches as follows :
WASHINGTON, April 21, 1867.
"MR. EDITOR :—Such articles as this are
calculated to do much harm. Thcv throw
obstacles in the way of future reconstruc
tion, being quoted and relied on as pledges
by the Republican party. Hence much
trouble arose from certain loose and in
definite expression# contained in a bill
which was reported by the Reconstruc
tion Committee of the 39th Congress,
though never passed. It was perverted
by fiction and folly into an argument
against the whole party and Congress.
''This generally arises from the careless
ness of the reporters; sometimes, doubt
hss, from the inadvertence of the speaker.
No man should make promises for the
party. By what authority does any say
that by the election of legal delegates
they will be admitted ? l3y what author
ity aay that Virginia will elect two loyal
Senators, while in truth there is no Vir
ginia?
"Much is to be done by the people and
Congress before any representative, or Sen
ator, or State can be recognized. Who
authorized anv orator to say there would
be no confiscation, as in another place ?
These things are too flippantly said. I
think they had better be gravely ponder
ed. Who is authorized to travel the
country and peddle out amnesty.
"I would say to the most guilty, 'except
punishment and then quietude, but first a
mild confiscation to pay those who have
been robbed disloyal men.' These are
my wishes, and mine only, perhaps.
THADDEUS STEVENS.
Do-Nothing Young* Ladles.
At a recent social gathering a young la
dy informed me that'she never sewed !
What do yotr suppose was the nature of
my reflections on hearing that dec'ara
tion ? I said to myself, either that girl
speaks falsely, or else she is very lazy.
Never sews! Who, then, I queried,
make# your dresses and cloaks, your skirts
and bows! Who repairs the rips in your
pretty gaiter boots, and darns the holes in
your stoekings 1 Is it your aged mother,
or your more industrious sister ? Or do
you hire all your sewing done? Should
this last supposition be the case, may you
never marry! And the chances are you
never will. Not one young man in a hun
dred can afford to marry a woman who
habitually neglects household duties.—
Young man, if it should ever be your for
tune to hear a young woman declare that
she never sews, beware ! Shun her as you
would the chills and fever. Be insane
enough to make such a one your wife,
and before the honeymoon is over, the
horrorß of bnttonless shirts and heelless
hose will be upon von; your fair lady's
sewing would he done by others, while 6he
moped in idleness, or noted in fashionable
dissipation. Then farewell to your dreams
of domestic felicity; they would fade as
summer flowers to the touch of frost.— Ex.

ture of this State, at the last session, was

Radical Testimony Against Radical Cor
ruption.
We would respectfully call the atten
tion of every tax-payer of Pennsylvania to
the following Radical testimony in regard
to prevailing corruption and knavery
among the law makers of Congress and a
number of the State Legislature:
"A large nnmbcr of our legislators—
enough to corrupt legislative action—are
purchasable."— New York Times,
"With a depth and infamy of legisla
tive corruption never before known, we
are falling into a practice of wholesale and
shameless bribery at elections, and that
too, in New England—in the 'land of
steady habits' itself.— Boston Transcript.
"The corrnptionists at Washington and
Albany are debeauchers of the young;
they are traitors, * * * vermin,
who arc crawling under the foundations
and destroying by corruption, the vital
powers of the Government."— Henry
Word Beecher,
"The Legislature of 1867 is no more.
It has fought its laat fight—it has won its
last stake * They have passed sixteen
hundred laws, 'pinched' others by the
score, and finally, after three months of
rioting, rotating, pinching, plundering and
pocketing.their time has command they go
out, as a rule, to return no more forever.—
Ch imbersburg (Pa.) Repository.
"Bad as has been the character of onr
Legislature for years, it stems to be gener
ally conceded that the body just adjourned
was even more nntrustworthy than any of
the predecessors. • All the Christian
people in the State should join in thanks
to the Throne of Grace that it did uo more
harm than it did. Another such a Leg
islature would sink us. — Somerset (Pa.)
Herald.
"Our legislators are rascals. No de
cent man would like to win 'Hon' f<y his
name in such companv— Chicago Post.
The New York Legislature, alluded to,
stood .-Senate —Radicals 27 ; Democrats
5; House—Radicals 82 ; Democrats 46;
Radical mujoritg on joint ballot, 58 !
The Pennsylvania Legifllature, alluded
to, stood: Senate Radicals 21 ; Demo
crats 12; House—Radicals 62; Demo
crats 23 ; Rndical majority on joini ballot,
46!
The Massachusetts Legislature, alluded
to, stood : Senate—Radicals 40 : Demo
crats 0 ; House—Radicals 229 ; Demo
crats 11 : Radical majority on joint bal
lot, 258 ! The Rump Congress, alluded
to, stood: Senate—Radicals 43; Demo
crats and Conservatives 36 ; Radical ma
jority on joint ballot, 125 !
"By those large cohtrolling majorities
the legislation of the State and nation was
performed. If it is corrupt and infamous—
and we have abundant Radical testimony
other than the foregoing, that it is—the
people cannot fail to place the responsibili
ty where it justly belongs. Having done
so, it is for them to apply the corrective
which it is their privilege to do, by elect
ing, hcr<-after, none but honest and pure
men, and so balancing party power as to
make one a check upon the other. It is
U6eles to look for purity or correct legis
lation when and where one political party
holds so large a prepondonerance of pow
er as is indicated above in the Congress
and Legislatures of 1867. Equalize the
political power, and each patty will find it
necessary to act honestly and purely in
order to gain favor with the people. If
the people are wise, they will at once cur
tail the corruptly wielded power of the
Radical leaders.
DEMOCRATIC GAINS EVERYWHERE.—
Th i Radical newspapers are trying their
best to break the force of the signal and
disastrous defeat in Connecticut by assert
ing that they have made gains elsewhere.
Nothing could ha further from the truth.
In New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michi
gan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas, and
all through the Western and Middle
States, the town and municipal elections
have as clearly shown a decline in Radical
influence as did the State elections in New
England. There is abundant evidence
that the people are beginning to reflect se
riously upon ths condition of the country.
Reason is resuming her sway, and the fu
ture gives promise of a great and lasting
change. That it will come, and come
speedily we conscienciously believe. All
the signs of the times indicate the approach
of a new political era.
A YOUNG WOMAN BURIED ALIVE.—A
friend gives us the account of a most terri
ble case of the burial of a handsome young
lady at Jacksonville, Illinois. Some time
last summer a young lady of seventeen
years of age, suffering with the toothache,
went to bed with a small vial of chloroform
for the purpose of qnietiDg her teeth. In
the morning she was found to all appearan
ces dead, which was confirmed by the opin
ions of several physicians who were called
and examined her body. She was then
buried. A few days since her relatives
were about to remove from Jacksonville,
having located in another State, and had
the remains of the young lady exhumed for
the purpose of taking them to their new
home Curiosity prompted the opening
of the coffin, when they were horror strick
en on finding the corpse turned over, both
hanJs full of hair, and her clothing torn to
shreds, revealing the horrible truth that the
young lady had been buried alive. The
chloroform had placed her in a deep trance,
the awakening from which was in her coffin
and grave. The lady was engaged to be
married at the time of her supposed death
A more heart sickening case we never re

anapolis Journal, April 9.
Owing to the high winds in the Adriatic,
Venice has been inundated to an extent
which has never been equaled within the
memory of any of the inhabitants. The
piazza of San Mark was 60 flooded that
boats and gondolas passed over it, and the

A large oscillating rock b-s been found
in West Arkausas. It is situated in the
channel of a torrent and moves to and fro

A Word to D*moerit,
The Clinton Democrat thus discourses
on the duty of Democrats: The absolute
necessity , of a thorough organization of the
Democratic party, ia certainly apparent to
every candid man. The perilous condi
tion of the country, environed on every
side by dangers the most fearful and ap
palling that have ever threatened its ex
iatence, demand the earnest effort of every
true friend of constitutional liberty, to ar
rest the onward march of chaos, and aid
by all available the reinstatement in
power of the party, alone of all others,
capable of drecting and managing the ship
of State. To effect and complete snch an
organization—one that will secure success
—should be the aim and purpose of all,
and the most certain and effectual method
of procedure is to place within the reach
of the masses reading matter of the right
kind. As abolitionism attained its ascen
dency by the lavish scattering of political
tracts and pamphlets, so may it bo over
thrown by administering in the same man
ner an antidote to its poison. ID ihe
heat of a political campaign, under the
present strict partizan organazation, but
few. if any. changes are made in the mass
of the people, and it is now, when nnexci
ted, that the work of conviction and con
version can be most readily accomplished.
Very many who never thought before, un
der the load ot taxation and debt which
stares thpm in the face, arc darinp to think
now. A little aid, fellow Democrats, from
you, will settle definitely the status of your
thinking neighbor. Democrats, your du
ty is plain, and the occasion to exercise it
is before yon. As vour Republican neigh
bor sits bv his fireside, these long even
ings, chewing the cud of reflection, and
endeavoring to determine the reason why,
for the past fonr years, rich men have be
come richer and the poor poorer; as he
wonders how some people can talk about
good times and prosperity when the news
papers are crowded with sheriJTs salfs.
just place within reach of that man sound
reading matter, and our word for it, lie
will work out his poltical salvation before
spring, unless his mind is so obtuse that
of cause to effect is not com
prehended by him. Let there be a spon
taneous movement an the part of the De
mocracy throughout the State. Let the
bnglo sound and a grand crusade he inau
gurated at once. Organize for the right;
say unto the darkness, behold the light;
combat error with truth ; send the gospel
of Democracy to the heathen groping in
the thick night of abolitionism; preach it
upon the street corners and proclaim it
from the house top. If you are taking a
Democratic newspaper, see that you pay
for it in advance, and having read it care
fully yourself, cirry it to your Republican
neighbor and give him the benefit of it
it likewise. Much can be accomplisbeJ
you will but make the effort, and that
it it will be done, we do not doubt.
Military despotism, a cotemporary
well says, is costly. Like war itself, it eats
into the resources of the people. Already
we have examples of what it will cost in
Virginia, and other States. The registry
lists are made out by military commanders
—a mockery upon republican Goveremcnt;
and "seven hundred officers" are required
as clerks and assistants, in Virginia alone,
to make out the lists. The law is that
white men shall be very generally disfran
chised at the South, and negroes cnfian
chised —so it requires a vast deal of labor
to do the business. Richmond is already
full of "loyal" office seekers, who are eager
to prey upon the people's monev. The
wit of man could not have devised a prece
dent more dangerous to republican institu
tions than this military despotism, no mat
ter whether its pretext was "reconstruction"
or oppression.
NEEDING RECONSTRUCTION. —It seems
that in Brownlow's dominion there are
some "rebels" left. The facetious local of
the Nashville Banner gives an account of
an old neqro, one man Fritz, who forgetful
of bayonets, was iudulging iu the following
seicuade:
I followed Old Mas' Robert,
For four years, near about,
Got wounded in three places,
And starved at "Point Lookout,"
I "cotched" the "roomatuni"
A camping in the snow,
But I killed a chance of Yankees,
I'd like to kill some "mo."
I hate the Constitution,
The u gacat Republic" too,
I hates the Freedmen's bu.ro
In uniform of blue;
I hates the nasty eagle,
With all his bras* and fu6S,
I hates the Yankee nation —
I hates 'em wuss and wuss !
—
A GAT DECEIVER —Miss Mary E. Walk
er, a fast young lady of Richmond, \a,
took it into her head, a few months ago, to
don male attire and engage as a barman.—
Somehow the breeches seem to have put
bad notions into her head, for she went to
making love to the pretty girls who came
after the family beer. One of them cor
responded with her. As making presents
costl money, the feminine barman borrow
ed from the till, was detected, pleaded guil
ty, and is now waiting for her sentence. —
Her enamored finance visited her in jail.
They are not to be married at present, as
woman's rights haye not attained to that
degree of development.
AN EXCHANGE SATS. —The Black
Republican parly has accomplished its
mission It must die with the issues which
gave it birth and kept it in power. The
eighteen months which intervene bctwden
now and the Presidential election will wit
ness the decline and fall of a party which has
done more mischief, shed more blood,
squandered more treasure, kindled more
diabolical passions, and inflicted deeper
wounds on Constitutional Government than
any political party that ever existed in the
world.
We say : A-h-m-e-n.
