rights under the General Government with
out being able to relieve itself from the
penalties of its crime2 An individual, by
his own wrong, may limit or destroy his own
rights aud privileges; but it never affects
the right Of those against whom the wrong
is committed.
We think that while the act of secession
forfeits all rights guaranteed by the consti-
tuition it can not take away the power and
right Of the General Government over the
territory and citizens of such seeding state.
With this view Of the subject we hope to
see the Government grapple boldly with this
most important question and so dispose of
it as thoroughly to secure the government
ofthe Southern states to true and loyal men,
Such a course will not only secure the most
permanent tranquility but also the most
speedy recuperation of these exhausted
states. IF they are to be ruled in the spirit
of slavery by parties hostile to the Union,
they viii continue to languish in hopeless
poverty for years to come On the decision
of this question depends their future peace
and prosperity. Let it be in the interest of
freedom and loyalty and they win soon rise
to degree of prosperity such as they have
never before known.

NEGRO SUFFRAGE IN CONNECTICUT. =
The Connecticut Legislature by two-thirds
vote and over has adopted Constitutional
amendment striking out the word white.
and giving the negro the ballot So far as
its Legislature can speak for it, the land of
steady habits goes for universal suffrage. 1t
is victory on the side of freedom that at
any time would have been important, and
never more so than now. For as we Of the
North have a great battle to fight in order
to secure suffrage to the negro at the South
it behooves us to clear our own skirts from
stain as rapidly as possible.
The amendment now goes to the people
of Connecticut, and we have notice in ad-
vance from the Democratic party that it is
to be resisted at the polls. Party lines will
be drawn tightly on that side against the
amendment-we hope they viii be drawn
tightly on our side in favor of it. But we
hope still more that the good sense of every
Republican as well as every Democratic vo-
ter, will teach him that it is alike impolitic
and unjust TO forbid his black neighbor to
vote because he is black, and that a party
ayowedly based on moral ideas and devoted
to free principles has no business to turn its
back on the cause of universal suffrage =

REBEL SUPPLIEs-1he montreal HitRess
publishes the report of General Sheridan,
that he captured, with other rebel war ma
terial, five Armstrong guns of evident Brit
ish fabrication, and by its denial makes a
bad matter no better-very considerably
The Witness says:
It is in the highest degree improbable
that the British government would act in
such glaring manner in opposition to their
avowed policy of neutrality. ID. The Brit
ish government has most distinctly denied
having sent Armstrong guns either to the
Federals or the confederates.
The theory of probabilities must always
yield to ascertained facts. The capture of
the guns is proof of rebel possession The
mark on the guns is proof Of their origin.
The claim of the British government to
their exclusive make and use is notorious
They must, therefore, have been granted to
the rebels by the government of England
The belief that this grant was made is rem
dered still more easy by recollection of the
cases of the Alabama, Florida, Rappahan-
mock and Stonewall, the former of which re-
ceived the aid of British officials, while both
of the latter were fitted out and sailed not
withstanding their tardy zeal Philadd

BaThe Copperhead newspapers are
bowling terribly over the mobbing of the
notorious traitor EDWARD INGERsoLL in
Philadelphia, few weeks ago That our
readers may have an idea of the sentiments
of INGERsoLL, we give an extract from the
public speech he delivered, and which was
the cause of the attack upon him: m:-''I yield
to no man in sympathy for the people ofthe
South, gallant people, struggling nobly for
their liberty against as sordid and vile a
tyranny as ever proposed the degradation of
our race. Nay, | go further and with
Jefferson, Madison and Livingston, I fully
embrace the doctrine of secession as an
American doctrine, without the element of
which American institutions cannot per-
manently live =
Without attempting to justify mob law, we
submit that denunciation from them comes
with very bad grace after four years of the
most persistent inciting to mob violence.
1t is rather late for Copperhead newspapers
to preach observance of the civil laws.

The Times special correspondent says
There is reason to believe that the trial Of
JEFF. Davis will take place on or about the
10Th OF this month, unless the defendant
can make showing of a necessity for post
poning the hearing for few days.
1t Is reported that the rebels have a deci-
ded majority in the Virginia House Of Dele
gates, or members elected by rebel votes,
In many of the election districts there were
but few Union soldiers, and rebel civilians
had it all their own way

Proclamation so as to exclude from its ben
efts all rebels whose property is valued at
$4,000, and upwards This modification
will increase the exceptions to one hundred

An Important Question before the su-
preme Court.

1t may not, perhaps, be generally known
to our readers that very important case
has been pending for some months IN the
Supreme Court of this State which involves
very important questions. lnAugust 1904
q bill in equity was filed in the Court OF
Common Pleas of Indiana county, which
PRAYED that Court to declare the law author
izing loans for bounties to volunteers uncon-
stitutional and for an injunction against the
Town Council of Blairsyille to restrain the
issue of bonds to those who had put their
money to aid enlistments This beautiful
specimen of disloyal litigation received its
quietus In Indiana county, by decree dis
missing the bill. An appeal was, of course
taken to the Supreme Court, and the ques-
tion argued before three of the Judges some
months since. Judge Read was absent from
indisposition, another member Of the Court
was holding the Nisi Prius, and the three
Judges who heard the argument being di-
vided in opinion, re-argument was or
dered. 1t was then for the first time that
the public heard Of the case. Several prom
inent citizens Of Philadelphia deemed it
proper that the city which has ten millions
of dollars at stake in the question, should be
heard. At their request the solicitor APP
piled to the Supreme Court for leave to be
heard which was granted.
The re-argument was commenced before
the full bench of the Supreme Court, sitting
at Harrisburg last Wednesday, and was con-
cluded on Thursday. The anti-county COM
plainants were represented not only by their
original counsel, Messrs. Weir & Stewart,
but by two ex-chief justices of the Court, the
Hon. Walter Ell. Lowrie and the Hon. Jere-
miah S. Black.
Itwas contended by these gentleman, that
the law authorizing counties to borrow mon
ey to aid enlistments, was void.
lst Because it was in violation of the
Constitution of the United States
ID Because it was an order to decree
for the payment of money, and therefore
not legislative, but judicial act.
Sd. Because it was in violation of the
amendments of 1857 to the Constitution of
Pennsylvania, prohibiting subscriptions to
railroad companies, or the loan of money to
any corporation, association or party"
The constitutionality of the law was main
tanned by Mr. Howard, of Pittsburgh, and by
r Carol Brewster, Esq, City Solicitor of
Philadelphia
The argument on both sides of the ques-
ton displayed great industry and learning
The Court reserved its decision The amount
involved is enormous, exceeding thirty mil
lions of dollars.

GENERAL WILSON, In a letter to Gov.
Brown, who had complained of the collapse
Of the currency Of the South, and the great
destitution of provisions among the people,
says he is instructed by the President to say
to him that these evils were caused by trea-
son and insurrection, and rebellion against
the laws of the United States, melted and
carried on for the last four years by you and
your confederate rebels and traitors, who
alone are responsible for all the waste, des-
titution and want now existing in that State
and what you call the result which the for
tunes of war have imposed upon the people
of Georgia, and all the loss and woe they
have suffered, are charged upon you and
your confederate rebels, who, usurping au-
thority. provoked war to the extremity, I'M
til compelled to lay down your arms and ac-
cept the just penalty of the crimes Of treason
and rebellion.
That the restoration of peace and order
cannot be entrusted to rebels and traitors,
that the persons who melted the war and
carried it on, viii not be allowed to assemble
at the call of their accomplices to act again
as the Legislature of the State, and again
usurp authority, those who have caused SO
much woe win not be allowed power again
to incite any fresh acts Of treason and rebel
lion. In calling the Legislature together
again without permission of the President,
you have perpetrateda fresh crime that viii
be dealt with accordingly, and if any per-
SON presumes to answer or acknowledge your
call, he viii be Immediately arrested.

THE REBEL DEBT.-A GENTEEL AND In.
GENIUS METHOD OF FENANoIERING.- Sur
geon Crawford, who accompanied the late
expedition to Arkansas to receive the sur
render of Gen. JEFF Thompson, tells of a
new rebel financial dodge which does credit
to their ingenuity, if not to their honesty.
While in company with JEFF Thompson and
his subordinates. vending their way to the
place where the formal surrender was to
take place, the Doctor fell into conversation
with Col. Kitchen, formerly lawyer in
Southeast Missouri, and, amongst other con
versation, to beguile the way, asked the Col
how they expected to pay the Confederate
debt 1T will be promptly paid at maturi-
ty, said the Colonel, with apparent indig-
nation at any suspicion Of unfairness or re-
Pudiation. I'VE have contracted a heavy
debt to be paid three years after a treaty of
peace as signed betlCeen the United States
and the Confederate States of An,eraca !;
when that time comes the debt will doubt
less be paid to the last cent.

FROM EUROPE.

NEw YORK, May 3l.-The Persia, which
left Liverpool on the 10th. and Queenstown
on the 2lst, arrived at 9 p. m.
In the House of Commons on the 29th,
Mr.. Griffith asked Lord Palmerston, if his
attention had been drawn to a proclamation
offering 800, 900 reward for the apprehen-
sion of JEFF Davis, and whether the Brit
ish Minister was prepared to make any rep
resentations to the United States in refer
ence to the treatment Of the Southern lea
ders.
Lord Palmerston said the only reply he
could give was that Her Maiesty's Govern
ment have no intention of offering interfer-
ence In the international affairs of the Uni
ted States. Received with cheers.
The correspondent of the Morning Her
aid asserts that the opening of recruiting
offices for Mexico in New York and WASH
ington, created sensation.
The Paris Moaiteur refrains from any al
lusion.
Strange rumors were current at the Stock
Exchange in London onthe 10th, but though
unconfirmed, had their effect. The most
prominent was that Napoleon had been ur-
gently recalled to Paris in consequence of
the prospect of American aggression upon
Mexico, and that Maximillian had been

RECONSTRUCTION.

The process of reconstruction seems likely
to prove tedious and somewhat trouble
some task. The result of the Virginia elec-
ton shows the difficulty of so adjusting the
matter as to insure predominance of loyal
men. The Presidents proclamation does
not seem likely to exclude sufficient num-
Der of unrepenting rebels to secure this
most important object. Unless some other
means are devised, the rebeIhous states will
in all probability be reorganized with Gov
ernments hostile tothe Union
A question arises here as to the propriety
of regarding the Constitutions of the South
ern states as still binding and only suspend
ed for season in their operations. Under
the necessities created by war, the General
Government has abolished slavery in all the
rebel states, though it is instituted and
guaranteed by the state constitutions. Why
should it refrain from also regulating the
right Of yoting2 R one part Of the state
constitution IS to be ignored or disregarded,
why not, with the same necessity existing,
also disregard another, which stands quite
as much in the way of successful reconstruc-
ton I? IF the the General Government can
say who shall not vote by reason of bad con-
duct or crime, may it not also say who
shall vote by reason of good conduct or 10y
alty2 We believe, the question, as to the
effect Of secession and rebellion on the Con,
stitutions, rights and privileges of the states
and their citizens hereunder, has never
been decided, May not stats forfeit its

SUPPLY OF GRAIN AT THE WEsT.-A
careful andreliable estimate gives the amount
OF wheat on hand waiting Eastern mar
ket In the country north west, and north
west OF La Crosse, at four million bushels.
of which at least one million bushels are N
the hands of farmers. Some farmers nm
the Chippewa, st. Croix, and Missouri riy.
ers have three years crop stiIl in store, wait
ing for higher prices, which will never come
But little wheat is coming forward held
back by the insufficient price and enormous
rates Of freight. On the Minnesota river
above st. Paul, wheat is a drugat fifty cents
bushel In the storehouses thousands Of
bushels are waiting transportation, and
thousands upon thousands of bushels have
suffered from dampness and heating. Some
dealers who bought year since at dollar.
and even ten shillings, bushel there, have
been ruined by the fall The president Of
one OF the upper river packet companies
loses at least one hundred thousand dollars
by depreciation of prices and damage to
grain from unavoidable causes. Five years
since wheat on the Upper Minnesota was
worth from fifty cents to one dollar and thir-
teen cents bushel, in gold. At present
rates ofgain and merchandise the farmers
are having a severe time.
