The President in the Amnesty Proclama-
tion prcsozibes the conditions OF which tie
right Of euffagc mRy be cxercisedIn State
elections. Tie General Government has also
in some elections for Congress In The state5
Of Maryland and Delaware. prescribed the
conditions Of voting, different from State
law, andmodifyi1g OF setting aside the State
regulations on this subject, It Is charged by
the opposition tlat in all such cases the Gov
crnment fs,Euilty OF groes usurpation and
arbitrary exercise Of power; and by some
who are known TO be defenders Of the Ad-
min:stration, this charge is admitted to be
true. Tie assumption on which the copper;
heads base. their charges, Is that the general
Government hos no right to interfere In State
elections many case, not even in the election
Of its own officers, or members Of Congress-;
for, It is alleged that the Constitution Of the
United States, has by an express article re:
miited this whole subject to the exclusive
legislation of tho State Governments, and
that the Federal Government cannot, but By

A daughter of Mr.. William Frost, Of Bell

Inst Monday morning, by drowning in the
Mississippi river. In lie early part Of The wor
ler brother whom she verymnch loved, Joined
the 18th Illinois regiment md was killed with
many others at the great railroad disaster,
His death was severe afiction to her, but no
one noticed that 1t had affected the sonntlness
Of her mind, pntil the morning on which sba
committed the fatal deed. That morning she
nroee ea1lier than usual and appeared some
what agttated. Soon after breakfast she left
the house, unnoticcd By her friends, went to
the river and plunged II at an opening in tue
ice. The body has not been recovered.
A letter which she had directed to her fa-
ther, was found in the house in which she sta
ted that the boys in the army from Bellyuc
were coming home to see their friends, aud
that she did not want to live to see them; as
her dear brother could not come with them.

Lis element when on the door, striking back
at his oppon ents with q yiracity and yjgor
refreshing to behold. His organ Of conGat-
ive1ess must be excessively targe, aud in nc
cordance with this trait OF his character, 1t is
a curious fact that he has always fought his
way into Congress In the face OF the most
powerful opposition. He appears to love to
fight his way to the Legislature through the
opposition and prejudices of q large portion
Of his constituents. 1t is to be hoped that
there he may now long continue in the posi-
lion which, two or three years ago, he could
ncver have attained upon his present plat
form. Mr.. Davis is II medium sized man,

@ a contemporary perlinently remarks
that the progress Of anti-slAvery sentiments
in the border slave States seems ut first
tlonght amazing. Yet 1t is in fact most mt
ural and healthy. Now for the first time In
many years is there m opportunity for 4 free
uttcrancc Of the sentiments really cherished
Those, who We're ut heart opposed to the iu-
stitution Of slavery, could not proclaim their
belief and make converts to it; they could
not even find out who shared 1t with them.
Suddenly tie seal Is removed from their lips
and they find that some whom they never
suspected of ugreciug With them, have really
always held views identical with their own.
And now ns the confession runs from lip to
lip, the fire ofenthusiasm is kindled in their
hcarts, and they announce their doctrines
with all the ardor Of new converts and preach
them with the zeal and power which are we'll
nigh Irresistible
But besides, the course Of events has now
for the first time fully awakened the inhabi-
tants Of the Border States to perception
They see In the light Of the conlagration it
has caused what hateful thing It is. They
have started up as If from dream aud asked
themselves why they never understood the
real spirit Of the Institution before, why they
never saw that 1t carried in itself spirit Of
essential end irrcconcilablc hostility to those
dcmocratic principles, On which our govern
ment is founded. They have for the first
time clearly perceived that tho mateEial, no
less than the moral, md the political. and the
sotlal intc1csts Of those States require its re-
moyal.

jos. Brooks of New York, in the House
yesterday, attacked the Union for frauds COM
mitted b. employees Of the Government
But what is curious about this expose is,
that In making 1t he went back on his own,
or rather the Democratic party; for Brooks il
n sort OF hybrid himself. All the frauds that
he was able to unearth were those Of men
who had been appointed under the Bachanan
Administration, aud continued in this, and
continued against the earnest protests of
Republicans and Union men. Such vas the
caec with DR.. GWinne, and such Is the case
with Clarke, whom Brooks denounced. But
Clarke, it appears, has not been convicted of
any fraud under this Administration. All
that he las been charged with, 1t now turns
out, was committed In Buchanan's reign.
The charges against Clarke lately made in
the New York and other papers, It turns out
ere unfounded. So that lie has improved un-
der Union rule, which is somet1 ing gained.
It is stnttd by gentlemen well posted, that
the frauds committed In the erection ofsome
Of the public buildings In this city, in pro-
port ton to the moneJ expended, nre far grea-
ter in amount thnn durtdg the entire war with
