An Investigation.

The House Of Representatives, at Har-
risburg, has appointed a Select Com
mittee, of which Mr. Wakefield is Chair
man, to inquire into the allegations of
attempted corruption in the recent election
of United States Senator, with power
to send for persons and papers, and to
report the result Of the investigation to the
House.
As there are no imputations upon Mr.,
Buckalcw, or his friends, of corrupt prac-
tces.the investigation must point at Simon
Cameron and his Republicans, and may
result in exposing them to the public in
their true colors. They are not immacu-
late nor unsuspected, and the Investigation
is, therefore, very proper and timely.

Election of Senator.

Some Of the Republican papers asser,
that the Legislature was overawed in the
late Senatorial election by tho presence
OF men from Philadelphia and other
places. 1t is, no doubt true that Cameron
and his hackers expected to win, that
their triumph could only be obtained BY
corrupt means, and that they were en-
ragged to see thousands of citizens from
various parts of the State present at Har-
ssburg to watch the proceedings and pre-
vent rascality. They would have chosen
10 have had complete possession of the
field, without interference or observation
of the people, AMI TO have quietly cheated
The majority of that people out OF an hon
est and true representation in the U. S
Senate for six years. But this was not
TO be. 1t was not possible to repeat the
iniquity Of 1857 when Cameron was sue
.esssful by the votes of that Infamous trio,
Lebo, Wagouseller and Manear, and OBJ
tainea power TO plunder and injure the
nation. One such performance involved
enough of disgrace and evil for a whole
century.
The citizens who attended at Harris
burg on thi, occasion, went there proper
ly and conducted themselves with propric.
~. There was no exhibition of ruffainism
by them, nor any attempt 10 control any
member against his party obligations, or
sopvictions Of duty But their presence
was powerful and proper guard against
corruption, and tended to .ecure fair and
honest vote They were not a body Of
armed men, but citizens and electors, and
had = perfect right to see that their repre-
sentative, gave honest votes in strict ac-
eordance with duly and with the views of
those who elected them.
The Cameronian, must get up some
better story 10 cover the ignomny of their
deioat, for this one will not answer their
purpose.

No More State Militia.

The attempt of the Federal authorities
at Washington to usurp the functions of
Governor Seymour, through the military
commander OF the East, Gen. Wool, is
viewed with alarm by the citizens of that
and other States. If the report be true
that the militia of New York will report
to and through Gen. Wool, and not the
Constitutional Commander in-Chief, the
Governor, then, indeed, has the first step
been taken in the bloody drama of civil
war in the North. To this the New York
Uorld says:
Were such an attempt to be successful
it would 60 far to consummatc that fatal
revolution in the relations of the Ameri-
can paople to their national executive
which the radical faction has been labor
ing so assiduously to accomplish. To the
national strength and unity of action
against the public enemy of the Union
nothing can be added by the consolidation
of all the military power of the nation in
the hands Of an ad administration which has
proved itself to be Incapable of conducting g
a great war; while it would remove from
that administration one serious and impor-
can't check upon its possible and even
probable disposition 10 the end that war
by an ignominious peace. 1t is through
the State governments and the lower house
of Congress alone that the will of the peo
pie can now impose itself, consttutionally
upon the executive and its partisans. The
reserve of the nations military force, helt
within tho grasp of the States, is an elo
ment essential to the prosecution of tht
war. To surrender that reserve into thu
hands of the administration is 10 make
the administration practical despotiSm
and 10 leave it at liberty either to carry OIL
the war in spirit and for objects wholly
foreign to the disposition and incompat
Bile with the convictions of the people, o.
to terminate hos,ilities upon conditions ru
insus to the hopes and disgraceful TO th'
honor of the people

Who is President Z

Since the adoption Of the Federal Con.
stituton we never had President who had
so little will of his own; who permitted
himself TO be dictated to in every public
measure rs Mr.. Lincoln has doue. lie
has been induced again and again to adopt
measures Of which bis Judgme mt did lot
approve, and at the present he appears to
be mere tool in the hands of the ultra
aboliiionists.
The public is aware that caucus com.
posed of abolition Senators peremptorily
demanded the discharge of his Cabinet
ministers and the formation Of q new Cab.
met, the members Of course to be selected
by them. Governor Seward seems 10
have incurred the special dspleasurc of
his abolition junto, and his dismissal was
especially demanded. The President for
the first time since his Inauguration seems
to have given evidence that be had some
back bone left, and as far as we are now
advised he retains him in hi, Cabinet.
The unwarranted action ofthc abolition
Senatorial caucus demands the censure and
execration of every man who is not blinded
by fanatlcism il is unbeard of, without
precedent, and if tolerated will result in
the subversion of the executive branch of
the government. The Toledo Blade init.
Inmates that the caucus has presented as
its uA'n'af"m requiring the President to
comply with its demands or resign his
office.
The country has lately been familiar
with new, startling and dangerous meas.
urcs but this insoent dictation caps the
climax, and is the commencement of a
revolution ten times more dangerous than
the rebellion of the Southern States
The southern rebellion is an attempt to
de.troy the independence Of the executive
branch of the government and fatal blow
at the very foundation of liberty. The
President is really himself the cause of
this unnitigatcd insolonce on the part of
the abolition Senators he has time and
again permitted them to dictate measures
which he knew and had previously admit
ted 10 be wrong; he has hitherto submit
ted in every instance and now that they
manifest an intention to deprive him of
all power, he sees to how great an extent
he has suffered himself to be humiliated,
and is probably no longer able 10 resist
If he should be able TO muster a sufficient
amount of courale to defy them, they will
threaten him with want of money and
supplies for his army-we predict the eau.
Gus will conquer.
The degradation, humiliation and shame
antailed upon our beloved country bv the
election of President Lincoln, is only
squalled by the burdens and calami,ies
brought upon her citizens by his fanatca
abolition policy.
IL the senatorial committee had under.
aiken to dictate the dismissal or change of
Cabinet to any of the democratic Presi-
dents, we are inclined to believe that it
never would have been repeated after the
first failure.
To the action Of the democratic patty
he country now looks for relief. If
'ails our liberty is gone to return no more;
