FOR JUIXiE OF THE SUPREME COURT,
GEORGE SHARSWOOO,
OF PHILADELPHIA.
The End of Vol. Six.
This number of our paper closes the Sixth
Volume and year of the North Branch Dem
ocrat, since it has been under our supervi
sion.
As we propose with oar next issuc(the
beginning of the 7th vol.)to make a change
in the title as well as in the size ofeur pa
per, this woold seem to be a proper occa
sion for a retropective view of the past. —
While it is often unstructive, sometimes
pleasant, and always profitable to review
the past; our six years experience has
taught us that there are times, in this busy
world of ours, when it is wisdom to look to
and prepare for the future-Times, when to
stop and contemplate the ghosts of buried
hopes, or the fading laurels in the past,
would neither serve to make the present
easier, nor the future brighter. Then,
Let the past dead bury its dead !
With stout hearts, high resolve and
bright hopes for the future, let us firmly,
cheerfully and resolutely pursue our allot
ted pathway through life 10-The end.
tgT We hardly need to inform our
friends that a press of legal and other ad
vertising this week, has limited our space
for general news. We expect to have
more eibow-ioom next week.
Meanwhile we hope every friend of the
Democrat will look up and send lis the
names of one or more good subscribers.
The more the merrier.
Remember, friends, that in a multitude
of subxeriberx , there is safety. Remember
too, that the root of all evil incites the edi
torial female, equine quadruped to peram
bulate. Whoa! Whoa!! W boa !!! There
goes our hat! Never mind-It's a poor old
thing anywav-g-l-a-n-g! We're bound
to keep up with the procession, as long as
there's a bub or a spoke to the cart!
The Radical papers make the following
confession of the gigantic failure and mis
erable fizzle of the attempt of the Radicals
to put President Johnson out of their way :
The impeachment scheme has virtually
been quashed. The party in favor of this
was defeated in the Ilouse by the loss of a
resolution for an October Session, for the
purpose of taking it -up. Thad. Stevens
wanted to make ihe Judiciary Committee
report at once, but in this he failed. A
vote having indicated the status of the
House, io opposition to impeachment to be
eighty tour to forty-five, Stevens b. cauie
disgusted and moved to lay the subject on
the table, which was done. The country
is not scrry to learn of this disposition of
the subject.
£<T Mr. Stevens is a bold man in his
declining years, savg the Philadelphia Age.
On Satuiday last he sneer* d|at the Senate
of the United States, because, to use bis
own elegant language, the '"fragments of
the old shattered Constitution stuck in vhe
kidneys of some Senators and troubled
them at night." He is very valiaut now,
and contemptuously pooh poohs u the ghost
of the past (institution," which he shrewd
ly suggests has frightened some of hislcol
leagues trom their Radical propriety. But
there was a time w hen Tbaddeus was not
quite so brave, and when the back win
dows of the Senate chamber at Hariisburg
afforded him a speedy escape from imagi
narv danger. A "ghost,' was after him
then, and he left as quickly as Kelly de
parted fiom Mobile.
The National Intelligencer thus de
scribes the effect produced in the House by
the late veto message not theslighiest man
ifestation of disrespect was evinced. On
the contrary, it seemed that members,
though coerced by the force of party nec
essity to sustain the bill by their vote in
opposition to the veto, were profoundly im
" pressed with the unanswerable reasoning
of the President. This was especially
manifested bv the demeanor of those mem
bers of both* house 6( many Senators being
present) who were known to be at heart
opposed to that portion of tbe bill which
superseded the authority of the Executive
in supervising the action of the district com
manders, which constituted the main point
in the message. Tbe attempt of Mr. Boat
well to produce a counter feeling was mor
tifying abortive. In bis oratorical flourish
he several limes paused, clearly anticipa
ting the plaudits of the gallery, but none
were given, and his effort fell without a re
spouse from even his fellow-destructives.—
Butler wss listened to with marked impa
tience, add even Stevens failed to 'bring
down tbe bouse' by his superannuated al
empts at wit."

Hariisburg, Lave gone iuto operation.—
Ex.
The Pennsylvania Steal Works at Har
risburg, have been iu operatiou ever since
Radicalism obtained possession of the
total® Government.
A Partisan JUlcUry,
The Radical party of this State ate ful
ly committed in favor of a partisan judici
al y. The seventh resolution adopted by
their State Convention, which nominated
Mr. Williams for a Judge of the Snpieme
Court, declares "that warned bj past mis
"fortunes, we ask that the Supreme Court
"of the State be placed in harmony with the
" political opinions of the majority of the
'people,'so that"it may become and remain
"a fit and faithful interpreter of the liberal
"spirit of the age, a bulwark of public
"faith, and an impartial and fearless expo- i
"nent of the equal rights of man." This
resolution has been endorsed and applaud
ed by all the Radical papers of the Slate,
and the Press of the 13th instant announ
ced that "a Union State should have a Un
"icn Judiciary, and every Republican is
"called upon to contribute to this desira
"blc end by voting in October next, for
"Henry W. Williams, as Judge of the Su
"prerae Court."
Now, what do the Radicals mean by
this seventh resolution, and what is the im
port of the declaration that "a Union State
should have a Union Judiciary V The
business of judges is to interpret the laws
according to those well-known principles
which underlv and give security ami slabil
ity to the whole structure of society.—
They are to be pure men, free from per
sonal bias or political prejudices. They
may and will have political opinions, but
these opinions are never to influence their
judgments or govern their actions in a par
ty or personal direction. The Constitu-1
tion oi the State and nation, and the laws
enacted by competent legislative bodies,
rre to be their rule of action. No man's
canse is to be prejudiced because he may
differ from the judge upon the bench, nor
are laws to be looked at through the misty
atmosphere of party clamor and excite
ment. Before and in the eyes of the law
all men of all political faiths, all religious
beliefs, are equal, and in that attitnde they
must be viewed by a judge if justice is to
hold a place upon the bench.
To this exposition of the character and
duties of a judge the Radicals will not
agree, and that disagreement furnishes an
answer to the question propounded above.
They are not only in favor of putting po'i
ticians upon the bench, but for pledging
those politicians in advance to fashion all
their legal opinions and decisions "in har
mony with the political opinions" of the
party by which they were elected. This
is the position occupied by the Radical
party in this State with reference to the
Supreme Court and its Judges. Such a
a principle, if carried into effect, would
turn the superior judicial tribunal of thi 4 *,
or any otber State, into a star chamber,
where political vengeance would be execo
ted, and neither law, justice, nor equality
be administered. All the judges v ould
be heated and bigoted partisans, instead of
calm minded, independent citizens, guided
by facts and the law ; and life, property,
and character would be held by the gossa
mer thread of popular opinion. Each
shifting phase of political action would find
its reflection in the judgment ot the court.
To-day the needs of politicians would drive
them in one direction, ai d the court must
follow. On the morrow a returning wave
would obliterate the record, and cut a tre*h
channel across the liberties ot the people,
the security of property, and the sanctity
of those ties which bind together civilized
society. Life, liberty, and all other rights
now surrounded by the safeguaids of con
stitutional law, and protected by impartial
judges, will, if the Radical idea is accepted,
soon fall before the spirit of agrarirmisra
which is beginning to invest with fresh
danger the movements of the ruling part\
of the country.
The phrase, "a Union Slate should havo
a Union Judiciary," used by the Press, is
but another way of enforcing the idea that
in the future, if citizn 3 dorire their rights
to be respected in the Supreme Court of
this State, they must place themselves in
• harmony with the political opinions of the
"majority of the people." "lbe State Con
vention of the Radical party has declar
ed that doctrine ; it has been endorsed by
the Radical press, and Mr. VV illiams, by
allowing bis name to be used as a candi
date, gives bis public assent to the princi
ple. With colleagues upon the bench of
the same political faith, Mr. Williams can
turn all tbo decisions of the Supremo
Court into the path marked out by the
Radical State Convention. Instead, then,
of merchants, manufacturers, bankers and
others trusting to the supreme judicial tri
bunal of the laud as an impartial bo iy.
which will administer law without "fear,
favor or affection," they will know that po
litical considerations are thrown intc the
scales of justice, and the judges are influ
enced by partisan consideiations in making
up their opinions and judgments. This
will be the effect of placing Mr. Williams
upon the bench of the Supreme Court.—
lie was nominated as n Radical politician,
not as a lawyer. He will decide as a pol
itician, act as a polificician; in a word
carry out the seventh resolution of the
State Convention, and place a'.l the decis
ions of the Supreme Court "in harmony
J "with the political opinions of the majority
"of the people."— Age.
In a late number of the Erie 06-
server, we found the following sensible re
marks :
% #
The Demorat who wants to be of service
to his party and render practical aid in se
curing the triumph of his principles, can
best succeed by subscribing for a sound lo
cal newspaper.—There never was a time
more ntcesary than now ta secure a large
circulation for Democratic doctiines. The
peoplo want the truth, and the only source
from which to derive it in its fairest and
most interesting sbaye, it in the columns
of a manfully conducted homo Union jour
nals. Every family in the country should
have the benefit of at least one energetic
Democratic newspaper.
TUBES more persons have died in
Franklin, Kentucky, in consequence of
wounds received during the recent Hot
in that town. The riot was caused by col
ored Loyal Leaguers firing upon white cit
izens. The whole affair was the legiti
asste fruit of Radical policy.
Poor Csriotis.
A Vienna letter says the accounts re
ceived from Miramar respecting the Em
press Charlotte are very sad. All hope of
recovery seems to have vanished. The
Jfo rgenpost has a commanication which
says:
The mental alienation has now attained
to ruch a pitch that the unhappy princess
cannot be left alone for an instant, and sev
eral times attempted her life. Two recent
a'tempts of this kind were fortunately pre
vented by the watchfulness of Doctor S'ek,
who has the august patient under his care.
Nevertheless, the Empress is occsionally
for a few moments at a lime, in full posses
ion of her faculties. In one of those lacid
intervals lately she said, " I do not desire
to live any longer ; death is yreferable to
such an existence;" then, after a short
nause, she asked, u Where is iny husband ?
Shall I never see him more? No, no, he
is dead, and I am still left in the world."
Scarcely a quarter of an hour passes that
the Empress does not ask for news of the
Emperor Maximilian. The physical con
dition of her majesty also indicates very
serious alaim.
The following letter was written by Max
imilian to his wife just before bis execution.
It was entrusted to the care of the Bish
op of Queretaro, from whom it was taken
by General Corona, and a copy made. —
The letter was written in French. The
man or woman who is not touched bj it
has a heart as hard as a Mexican's:
My Beloved Caßlotta : If God per
mit that your health get better and yon
should read these few lines, you will learn
the cruelty with which fate has stricken
me since your departure for Europe. ou
took along with you not only my heart but
mv good fortune. Why did I not gbe
heed to your advice ? So many untoward
events! Alas! so many sudden blows
have shattered all ray hopes, so that death
is but a happy deliverance —not an agony
—to me. I shall die gloriously, like a
soldier, like a king vanquished, but not dis
honored. If your sufferings are too great,
and GoJ should call you soon to join me,
I shall bless the Divine hand which has
weighed so heavily upon us. Adieu,
Adieu!

Radical Financiering.
The Llarrisburg Telegraph, a most un
scrupulous Radical paper printed at the
capital, lecently published the following 1
Moreover, under Democratic adirrnis
trat ons of former years, from 184l| to
1860, large amounts of the Common wealth
had been falling due from time to time,
and no provision made for its renewal,
touch less tor its payment. In 1806 the
aggregate of these overdue loans of the
State was some twenty-three millions of
dollars. The present administration prompt
ly determined that this reproach should be
taken away, and in January last advertis
ed for the redemption of all these overdue
obligations, and succeeded in effecting an
exchange of new seccurities for the whole
at par.
Upon which the Patriot dc Union has
the following to say :
We are glad our Radical neighbor has
returned to notice this matter, and we may
on some future occasion ventilate one of
the boldest swindles that has ever been
practiced upon the tax-payers of the State.
At present we would only say that the im
pression designedly conveyed to the reader
oy the Geary organ that these overdue
obligati' ns had ceased to bear interest, and
that the State creditors urgently demand
ed payment of the principal, is wholly
false. The time had simply expired when
the State had a right to pay, but the inter
est had not ceased, aud as the security was
ample, the creditors were abundantly con
tent.
The practice has for years uniformly
been for the Commission of the Sinking
Fund to advertise for proposals from the
holders of State loans, and to use the sur
plus money not otherwise required for the
purchase of them, and thus save, many
many times, a large per centage for the
Sia'e.
Now what was done bv these Radical
officers? Did they use the three millions
cf dollars in the Treasury for the purchase
of these overdue loans ? Oh, no! There
was no money to be made by that, besides
the drippings Irom so large a sum in the
Treasury would aid largely in electing an
other such handy Legislature a3 we had
last winter.
But what did they do? We will tell
you, honest reader. They borrowed twen
ty-three millions of dollars at six i'ER
cest., and made the loan, free from State
and other taxes, to pav off a loan of a simi
lar amount at five peii cent, taxable!—
They merely enabled certain parties to
put hundreds of thousands of dollars into
their pockets at once, and made an addi
tion to the Slate debt of at least $450,000
per annum ! The names of the parties to
this transaction are known to us, and may
be made the subject of a future article.
If this is what the Radicals call finan
ciering, then the sooner the State can be
relieved of such operatoas the better for
the tax payers.
{g* John Matthews, the actor, who was
witness in the Surratt trial, but was not
permitted to testify in regard to the letter
written by Booth to the editor of the Na
tional Intellifjencpr , publishes a card in that
paD*r in self-justification. He says the
letter whtch was handed to him by Booth
was written on a sheet of commercial note
paper, covering three pages; the first two
pages were written in the spirit and style
of the Philadelphia letter, and it was only
at the concluding paragraph that anything
was said bearing upon wbat has transpired,
which was to this eifeet and in these
words:
For a long time I have devoted my en
ergies, my time, and money to the accom
plishment of a certain end, I have been
disappointed. The moment has now ar
rived wh*n I must change my plans. Ma
ny will blame me for what I am about to
do, but posterity, lam sure, will justify
me.

The Villainy of the Radical**
Is there an American ci'izen who ic not
a member of the cabal at Washington
City called a Congress, who baa become
to debauched by the corruption of the
Radical party which has governed the
country for the past five years, as not to
i feel within his bosom the barbed arrow of
eternal disgrace, which attaches to the
name of every American citizen, on ac
count of the proceedings which took place
in Congress, in reference to the Kentucky
delegation electe 1 to seats in that body by
the people of their state.
It is notorious that the State of Ken
tucky never seceded or attempted to se
cede from the Union, and it is equally no
torious that at the late election for con
gressmen in that state, the Democrats had
a majority over their radical opponents of
more than fifty thousand votes.
And yet when these representatives of
the people of Kentucky—thus elected by
so overwhelming a majority—appeared at
the clctks desk, and offered to take the re
quired oath in order to take their seats
and participate io the legislation of their
national government, as provided by the
United States Constitution, the radicals
permitted a single member to be sworn in,
and refused seats to every other member up
on the allegation, without any proof what
ever, that they were disloyal to the gov
ernment of the United States. In the
name of God and liberty, we ask, bow
long will the people of the United States
endure such assaults on republican gov
ernment ? How long will they permit a
band of thieves and sconndrels to occupy
the halls of Congress and deny admittance
to all representatives of the people who
oppose their premeditated purpose to de
stroy liberty and republican government
in these United States ?
Not only did those radical scoundrels of
the country refuse seats to the Democratic
representatives from the state of Kentucky
but those from the state of Connecticut
also. They passed a icsolution approving
of the military usurpation of military pow
er in the South, while Schenck, of Ohio,
one of the leaders of the Jacobin rabble
rvmps. offered a resolution declaring that
the hireling Nasby and Attorney General
Stansberry are the exponents of the policy
of the President of the United States.
Is all patriotism dead in these United
States? ShalLthe people stand idle and
see the nation insulted in the person of the
constitutional President of the United
States, Liberty strangled, by refusing tie
proper representatives seats in Congress,
and military dispotbm established in the
place of constitutional law, without rising
enm<t'e and marching to Washington City
and hanging to the lamp posts the iufernal
scoundrels who are guilty of the act referr
ed to.

"South Carolina had $400,000,000 worth
of proj.ertn when the war commenced —
&200,000,000 of it in slaves. All gone—
their railroads worn out—their banks fail
ed— the poorest civilized community on
God's eurtk to-day. We republicans can
carry thai stale this autumn hy from 20,-
000 to 30,000 majority, and hold. [Ap
plause.]! was told by an ex-governor of
the state, referring to a district where sla
very was the strength of onr principles and
our organization that there would not be a
candidate rttn against us Jor congress.—
You cannot say as much for any district
in Boston or New \ rk."
Countrymen, can you be so lost to all
love of country so utterly degraded by the
republican since it has held pewer, that
nothing can arouse you to a sense of duty
you owe yourselves, your children and re

A NEW SVSTEM FOR REGISTERING LET
TKRS.— AII Postmasters were instructed to
put the new system of registration J letters
into operation on the first day of June —at
which time it went effect all over the Uni
ted States. A new style of canvass en
velope, of large size and of an appearance
sufficiently novel to attract the attention
of distributing clerks immediately, has
been introduced with this change. _ Tne
j directions on these envelopes will gße the
! reader a good idea of the new system.—
It reads : "Postmasters, route agents, rail
way post office clerks and receiving clerks,
handling this registered package envelope
while in transit, are required to keep a rec
j ord of its number, postmark, (with date,)
1 address, date of its receipt, and the descrip
j tion made of it by tbem on blanks and
books furnished for that purpose. Route
agents and railway post office clerks will
also take a receipt for it, (to be carefully
preserved,)Vben it leaves their hands ;
and when such receipts cannot be obtain
ed at the time, they will place in the.
pouch with this envelope a receipt, to be
signed by the Postmaster of the office at
which the ponch is first opened. This re
ceipt the Postmaster will sign, and return
it, (directed to the route agent or rail vay
1 post office clerk,) by next mail."
