pRNNsYLvANIA COPPERHEAD.

The Hon. George W. Woodward, Coppcrhead
candidate for Governor Of Pennsylvania, while
a member of the Constitutional Convention in
1897. while the clause relating to the qualifica.
tons Of electors was under discussion, proposed
an amendment TO the Constitution "to preress
any foreigners who may arrive in this State after
the 4th of July, lS4l, from acquiring the right to
rote or to hold office in this commonwealth" A
record Of this may be found in vol. Of the Of.
fetal report Of the Convention, pages 446-47.
Judge Woodward gave the following reasons for
his proposition:
"is my honest opinion that do but srnsncer these
privileges In comforting them upon every individual whe
chooses o come ard take them.

OH MINERAL WEALTH.

The existence Of terrible Civil War, with the
overshadowing anxieties and cares insepara-
BILE thcrofrom, necessarily distracts attention
from the development now in progress Of our
country's unequaled and till recently unex-
pected Mineral resources. When, little more
than four years ago, it was frat proclaimed that
gold had been found along the Eastern base of
the Rocky Mountains, the statement was met
by general shout Of incredulous derision; YET
now gold and other valuable Minerals are
largely obtained from either slope Of those
mountains from New. Mexico ON the south
nearly or quite to the British line; on all the
great western afluents Of the Missouri, on
those Of the Colorado and Columbia, and Of
late in the sands Of the Saskatchewan itself. The
Rocky Mountains, we estimate, will this year
contribute Twenty Millions to our National
supply Of gold and their annual product is des-
tined to rise rapidly to Forty, Sixty, and per.
haps to One Hundred Millions.
And this is but one item Of a large account.
California was never opening new Mines so fast
as now. The sands OF her rivers may be nearly
exhausted; the drift of her plains and valleys is
probably fur less productive in the average than
it was ten or twelve years ago; but her noun
tains and rocks are just beginning to yield their
precious ore. We hear by every mail Of new
discoveries in the south and in the north; Gold
is still found in quarters hitherto unsupported
Of containing it; the great Mariposa estate is
producing treble what it did until very recently.
and, under its new direction, is destined to fur
ther rapid development; new lodes of Silver,
Copper, aud other valued Minerals, are an.
nounced in rapid succession; the famous Monte
Diablo-whch may be termed the hub Of Cali
fornia-has just been discovered to be veined
with Copper, and perhaps with other ores as
well, though hitherto unsupported thereof;
while Nevada ia proving rich in Silver and Gold.

obligations to France. In Brussels, the infiu-
ence of the princes of the Orleans family, who
are brothers-in-law of the Belgian King, must,
of course have made itself felt, and their views
of the United States, no less than of the French
Emperor, could not make them favorable to
the Napoleonic scheme of Mexican Empire.
The organs of the French Government are
anything but pleased with tho influence that
has been brought upon the Archduke. Inc
Pntri. remarks with bitterness that King Leo
pold has made himself the mouthpicce of Austria
and the Orleans family, but at the same time
expresses the hope that the Archduke may iol'
low his own inspirations, and not those Oh his
family. The Government considers it, however,
expcdient to prepare public opinion for another
candidate for the Throne. 1t announces IN the
official papers that a large number Of Mexican
towns are sending in their adhesion to the reso-
lutons passed by the Notables, but that some OF
them express preference for French Prince
There is a great anxiety manifested all
through Europe to learn what attitude the
United States will assume with regard to the
Mexican question. 1t is generally expected
that this question will make the relations be-
tween France and the United States decidedly
unfrcndly if not openly hostile. 1t was posi-
lively asserted in Paris, and generally believed,
that Mr.. Dayton had been instructed to protest
against Mexican monarchy, and that he would
present the protest in about week. The Lib
eral party in every European country is de-
nouncng the scheme Of a Mexican monarchy
under French patronage with great unanimity.

GAINS IN VERMONT.

1t is almost too bad to expose the shallow
falsebood by which the Copperhead journals
make out Immense gains in the Democratic
vote in Vermont, but perhaps it may be worth
the ink. The World claims q gain of LABS in
only twenty three towns, inferring that this is
the ratio for the whole State, say about Is, COO

Last year, from which the Copperhcads date
their gains they did not make the least effort ior

County, where there were 1856 votes against
Lincoln in 1860 and ,493 for the two Democra-
tic candidates for Governor in 1861, they gave
Smalley only l54 votes in 1862. Caledonia Co.
gave s74 Democratic votes in 1861 and only
,,ren in 1862. Of course 1862 is good year to
count gains from. But we take the liberty OF
extending the comparison, and for that purpose
