An Outrage Upon Tax Payers and
the Families Of SOldierS.

The House of Representatives has
passed a bill by which $S00,000 of the
money raised for the relief of the fam
lilies of soldiers is to be withheld from
its legitimate and humane object and
used to make up a deficiency which ex-
lists in the State Treasury. This is in
deed a high handed proceeding-one
which tramples under foot the rights and
necessities Of the destitute families OF
our State whose natural protectors gave
their lives to the service of their coun
try. What can the people think of a
party that will ruthlessly s~quander the
money raised for carrying OF the State
Government and then rob the families
of dead soldiers to replenish the Treas
ury? Who would have supposed, two
years ago, when these same Republi-
cans were hurryiDg about the country
to get volunteers and thereby save them
selves from being drafted, promising to
care for and protect from want the fam
lilies of poor men who were induced to
enlist that their loved ones might enjoy
the luxury of temporary relief from the
unsupplied demands of nature, that they
would so soon forget the pledges which
their cowardice induced them to make
SO freely? The war is over, it is true,
and many families that needed relief
heretofore are now we'll cared for by the
returned husbaHds. fathers and sons;
but there are families that will never
again be cared for in hat way, and there
are almost innumerable instances of
suffering where the head of the family
has returned with lost health and is
a burthen instead of a support. All
such families should be cared for by
the publicly the State-and the man
who votes away the money raised for
them and thereby turns them over to
the overseers of the poor, deserves, and
will receive, the whitening condemna-
tion of outraged humanity Wyan-
doAe Union.

Practically.

practically, the negro is now in .
worse condition than in 1900 Wendell
Phillips.
This tells the whole story Of Abolition
philanthropy. Practically. the negro is
now in a worse condition than he ever
was. Practically, this condition must
continue to grow worse with every at
tempt made for his relief by the philan-
shrepists who made his condition worse
than in 1860. Practically the white
man is in a worse condition than in 1850,
practically the whole world lie worse off
than in 1860, by reason Of this same ABB
clifton philanthropy. Practically, the
purpose of this Abolition philanthropy,
certainly its inevitable result, was to pro-
duee just the condition represented
Practically, there never was anything in
Abolition philanthropy, but impractical.
BILE nonsense, which degenerated into the
most hideous and unchristian maleyolence.
Practically it never contemplated any
good to the negro, but only evil to the
white race. Practically, Mr.. Wendell
Phillips shares more of the responsibility
Of this condition Of the negro than any
other man living, and, practically. he
should be ashamed to present himself be-
fore a people whom be has SO outrage
ously deluded and so terribly injured By
his impracticable philanthropy and prac-
teal villainy.-Crisis.

The Democracy of Mercer have elect

The Democracy of York elected their

large Democratic gain.
In Bedford the Democracy elected

The Republicans in those places took
the side of the present disunion Radical
Congress, and the Democrats that Of
President Johnson and his restoration
policy. Hence the glorious result.
The city of Erie, Pa, has always been
looked upon as one of the places that
could not be anything else than Repub-
llicau. On last Friday, March Is, they
had an election for Mayor, when VIM. L.
Scott, the Democratic candidate for
Mayor was elected by four hundred and
thirty sac majority. As strong Repub-
!ican as Erie has heretofore been, its citi-
zens do not endorse the sumner Stevens
disunion programme of the present Rad
zeal Congress. There are plenty moro
places just like Erie as there Radical
gentlemen will discover before they are
many years older.

amonds-the bleeding hearts Of orphaned
children into rubies-the prayers of dy-
ing soldiers into pratings of loyalty-the
blood covered sod into crimson cloth for
their wives and daughters-the tear wet
eyes of those home ones who read the
list OF killed, into pearls-the graves of
brave men into luxurious couches-the
shrieks of the wounded into music for
dancing-the groans of the dying into
parlor music-.he bloody hospital clothes
into opera robes-the weary tramping of
the foot worn soldiers into costly horses
the ambulances filled with the dead
into velvet cushioned carriages-the hard
tack into game supperS the water drank
from muddy pools into costly wines--the
patriotic devotion of honest men into
schemes for power and personal aggran-
dizement.
The b~onGhelders are not the ones who
fought-bled, suffered and died, but they
are the loyal thieves-the prating hypo-
crites-the endorsers of Lincoln's usurpa-
tion-the admirers of his Milerisms-the
towards who dared not fight. These are
the men whom republicanism protects.
These are the men whom republican leg
~islation unconstitutionally make lords
and masters over brave men.
Soldiers who vert to war had boun-
ties. These were raised by taxes. While
soldiers fought, Congress raised money
for them by running the country in debt.
The men return from war to find the ones
who hired them to go, exempt from tax
alton, and the entire debt of the country
thrown upon the shoulders of those who
suffered the most.
And this is Republican equality.
Thank God for calling the head of this
law breaking, tax raising party home,
no matter where that home may be. Our
sympathies are with a living people more
than with a dead usurper or the %aristoc-
racy and i'll gotten wealth of the party
which endorsed him. Our heart beats
more in unison with the bond then the
free-with victims more than tyrants-
with the people more than with their
plunderers, and while We have a voice to
raise, a pen to write or a press to print
on, may God forget us if we do not stand
between the oppressor and the oppressed
of our own color.
Poor men-laboring men of Americaf
1t is for you to say whether you alone
shall pay the war debt and support in idle
ness those who fattened on your sons,
fathers, and who live on your labor. Ii
is your duty to say whether the rich shall
pay the debt towering over US, or whether
you will leave a burden of taxation on
your posterity forever.

COLUMBUS, March ~, lS6b.
The Senate passed what is called the
Militia Bill this day. This law repeats
the communication law; so hereafter there
will be no person compelled to pay four
dollars if they fail to muster OF perform
military duty.
There is great stir in the House to-
day in regard to the distribution of said
commutation fund, now in the State
Treasury, which now amounts to some
s250,O0O. The bill proposes to distrib-
ute the money among the different coun-
ties in proportion to the amount paid by
each county. The fight is now growing
hot, and from what | can gather, the bill
in its present shape will not pass.

Vice Thing for clara.

~ A&
The Fall River Monitor very justly
says of the Congressional appropriation
of fifteen thousand dollars to Miss Clara
Barton, for collecting the names of mis-
sing soldiers
"She made a very profitable thing out
of her speculation, aud traded upon her
patriotism to a good purpose, The bust
ness in which she engaged was unauthor-
lied, and she had no claims upon the
Government for services or anything else.
Her operations were purely of a specula-
tive character, and exactly upon the
same footing of a pardon broker or a
claim agent, and she is entitled to no
more consideration than those classes.
If Congress goes on regarding these
interested patriots, in this way, "all the
gold OF Indus and Ind win hardly be
sufficient to meet the demand upon the
Treasury. The very men who voted to
give a woman fifteen thousand dollars
for doing nothing for the Government,
will no doubt haggle a month over a
proposition to equalize the bounties to
brave men who offered themselves for
the defense of the country, when trea-
son sought to destroy il. "-New Bedford

sLoYALTY."-This much abused term
has become SO ~hackneyed by c%anting
Radical lips that it is refreshing to see
the true definition Of it Ia the Presidents
late speech:
I repeat l am for the Union am for
preserving all the States. ! am for ad-
hitting into the counsels of the nation all
their Representatives who are unmistaka-
bly, and unquestionably loyal. A man
who acknowledges allegiance to the Gov
eminent and who swears to support the
Constitution must necessarily be loyal
A man cannot take that oath in good
faith unless he is loyal.

The Civil Right Bill.

The Congress of the United States
have passed a bill called the Civil
Right Bill, and it is now before the
President for his approval. The Bill
involves consequences infinitely more
momentous than the Freedman's Blu.
reau Bill. tits assuming to settle the
law of citizenship and to declare all the
emancipated slaves to be citizens; and
it assumes to exercise control over the
laws of contract, inheritance and ten
ures. And it assumes to give the Uni
ted States courts exclusive jurisdiction
in cases involving these questions, ever
between citizens Of the same State. If
the bill shall be vetoed it will give us as
~surance that the States are to be preserv-
ed as States: if It shall be approved, the
veto of the Bureau Bill will pass for
nothing Urbana Union.
INDIANS STARvING.-The Commission
er of Indian Affairs has been informed
by letters written from Forts Randall
and Sully, Dacotah, and forwarded by
MAJ. zen. Pope, that a great number
of Indians are arriving at the above forts
almost daily from the country above,
in a starving and destitute condition.
They had actually been forced, By the
extremity of their hunger, to eat their
ponies and dogs, including their ofal.
Reports also come in that many more
are on the way down in a similar con
dition. Some three hundred lodge at
Fort Sull, where the commanding officer
is unable to render them any assistance,
owing to short supply of r%ations. Gen.
Sully says it is well for those Indians
to suffer, in order that they may be con-
WINGED of their WI helplessness and
induce them to look up to Govern
ment as their only aid and protec-
ton.

inst, Mr.. Deal called attention to the
fact that the officiating Chaplain, while
praying for Congress omitted any allu-

an end this invidious discrimination,
he offered a resolution, requesting the

their prayers the President of the Uni
