schuyIkilI County Eleciion.

AS the Locofoco Federalists have made great
noise about the causes which produced the late
revolution in Schuylkill county, we copy the ioi-
lowing paragraphs from the Miners Journal, ex-
posing the reckless and outrageous means used
by the Cassites to carry that county
Political slavery.
: /" Taylors majority would have exceeded six
teen hundred IN SchuyIkill county, if the voters
had been permitted 70 follow their lncl'nafions--
but we must confess that we never witnessed such
abject slavery in our lives, as was presented on
Tuesday last,-it was humiliating to American cit
izensi At least two hundred honest Irish adopted
citizens in the towns in the Coal Region expressed
desire to vote the Taylor tcket--they had ielt
the pressure of the times, knew the remedy, and
were anxious to bring about change. but they
were tracked by men who have set themselves nP
as their leaders in these towns, and who, like
bloodhounds, hunted them dowd and even ihreai-
ened them with their lives il they dared vote for
TAYLOR In some instances the tickets were
snached from them and torn up before their faces,
and others placed In their hands, and then pushed
up to the polls and the tickets hurried into the
windows-iheir prejudces were appealed too
their religion held up at the political shambies,
and their votes battered to secure paliry ofces TO
their leaders from corrupt and dishonest party
We have heard of the oppression OF the English
Government in Ireland-we have heard OF Rus
sian serfdom, but we question whether either is to
be compared with the political rassatage. to which
large portion of orr Irish adopted citizens are
reduced in this regon-a native born American,
and our adopted citizens from all other countries
60 to the polls reemenit is their right, and no
threats intimidaie them, they have no fear they
are feenen, in every sense Of the word, and act as
freemen. But these men are TO be pitied, not con-
demned--soe knoio that many are well-disposed
and orderly citiZeus--but they know the maligni-
ty of their leaders,-they know that they are liza
BILE to be wayaid and beaten almost to death for
SO doing--but we rejoice that there is prospect
that this political thraldom will soon cease.
number of their countrymen have thrown off the
shackles,-ihey defy their malignity-and they as
sure US that they will have every person prompt
ly arrested and prosecuted to the full extent OF the
law, who dare threaten them hereafter with regard
to their votes they are determined to disenthral
them-and when this is done, the frequent scenes
OF riot and bloodshed which have disgraced this
region, will cease in our community. We SIN
cerely hope that every friend of the law, order and
freedom in the region will extend their aid in this
praisworthy undertaking."

trict. was born on the 24lh of August 1871 and
was consequently 81 years and 2 months Of
age, when it pleased the Almighty to call her TO
hmself-a call for which she had been long
preparing and which she obeyed with all the
confidence and resignation Of a true child Of
God. She made q profession of the religion Of
our blessed Saviour. and joined the Baptist
Church at Sister Springs aboht is years ago,
and, from that period, maintained consistent
and pious walk and conversation, the effects of
which she beautifully manifested in every rela-
ton OF life. An aaecliouate and faithful wife,
found yet iudicous mother, sincere friend
and a real neighbour. Her loss must long be
severely felt by her bereaved family, and per.
haps as lastngIy by community who truly de;
plore her departure from their midst She has
LEFT deeply solrowing husband and six chill
dren, FIVE Of whom are far too young not tp
need mother tender care; the youngest was
born on the 3Ist of August last, since which
time Mrs. Chu,ham scarcely left her bed; yet
throughout her long anj painful sickness, no
