Important Decision.

HARRISBURG, June 21.-The Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, sitting at Wilkes
barre yesterday, rendered decision in the
case of Huber VS.. Ranken, error to the Court
of Common Pleas of Franklin county Che
deserter voting case). The decision does
not argue the corstitutionality of the law of
Congress, but is chiefly confined to the point
at issue, to wit, the right of judge of elec.
tion to reject mans vote, when the word
''deserter" is written opposite his name on
the list of voters. Chief Justice Woodward
and Justices Strong and Thompson decided
that the judge of elections could not refuse
a mans vote until he had been tried and
convicted of desertion while Justices Read
and Agnew, on the contrary, held that the
judges of elections were the proper persons
to decide the question.

MAJOR GEN. j. w. GEARY, the Republi-
can soldiers candidate for Governor, paid a
brief visit to Reading last Monday. His
visit, though entirely unexpected and very
brief, was very pleasant. The General had
the advantage of noble physique, standing
some six feet two, with well-developed pro.
portions. The soldier has great advan-
tage over the Senator, IN possessing an I'M
biemished political, and a most glorious
military record. While the former was
fighting the battles of the Union at "the
'front.'" the latter was fighting the battles of
his party at home, and leading and encour-
aging the accursed Copperhead crew to do
all they could to embarrass the Government
and make treason successful.
1t is to such men as Gcary that the peo-
pie of Pennsylvania are indebted for shield
ing them from the hostile invasion, and de-
struction of property and life from fire anG
sword by Lees army of armed and infuriated
rebels; and it is just such men as Clymer,
that by word and action, by sympathy and
support, encouraged the traitors to hold out
year after year with the hope of final tri-
umph. With two such candidates there can
be no question as to who will be the victor.
The Boys in Blue" are still leading the
Union column, and know how to fight the
ballots as well as the bullets. They will
storm the Copperhead entrenchments next
October, and compel Clymer to an uncondi-
tional surrender, and his party 70 Waterloo

THE LATE Mr.. SEAToN.-Mr. Charles
Lanman contributes to the Round Table a
paper suggested by the death of Mr.. w. w.
Seaton, in which occur the following para,
graphs:
"ln the magazine article already alluded
to the fact is stated that for more than one
third of a century the two owners and edi-
tors of the Inteliigencer had never had set
tlement of accounts, but that each member
of the firm had drawn from the common
fund what money he desired. In that con-
nection will here mention few remarkable
business particulars, as follows Between the
years 1925 and 1869, both inclusive, the
monthly expenses of the National Intelligeneer
averaged 81 900, or 81 $3.50, 900 for the whole
period. The amount drawn out by Mr..
Gales during that time for his personal ex-
penses was ,270.40, and by Mr. Seaton
19,371.14, making together 1886, Gal 54,
or grand total of moneys disbursed by the
office in thirty-fve years, So, ,516,6 Of
course these were not the earnings of the
Intetligencer alone, but were greatly enhanced
by the various congressional publications
which bore the imprint of Gales d Seaton.
Alter the death of Mr.. Gales the office was
found indebted to Mr.. Seator in the sum of
$4,000, which was presented by him to the
widow of his late partner ..-'' . ssa.
'Perhaps the most intimate friend that
Daniel Webster had in Washington was Mr..
Seaton. There was no one, out of his own
family, to whom the great statesman was so
warmly attached. A part of almost every
evening, when not engaged at home or else
where, was spent by him in the family sit
ting-room of Mr.. Seaton, with the ladies of
his family, or tete-a-tste with him in winter
at the fire side, or in evening strolls in sum-
mer. The letters and familiar notes that
passed between them are numerous and in
teresting; and, as the eyes of the world are
at this moment especially fixed upon Aus
tria, we may with propriety give the follow
ing incident. The day before the famous
Hulseman letter was transmitted to Congress
Mr.. Webster sent it to Mr. Seaton to read.
After it was returned, and ON the morning
it was 20 be sent to the Senate, it occurred
TO Mr.. Seaton that the word patch, as appli-
ed to great empire, would appear rather
undiplomatic or Beneath the dignity of such
state paper, and like an attempt to belittie
an adversary government, and therefore he
despatched note to Mr.. Webster suggest
ing, if not too late, the substitution Of ano-
ther word. He received by his messenger
the following reply: l'sr Iis mi~
"tDeir Coi.:-The deed was done before
got your note but patch means small

Geary and Ciymer Compared.

In his eloquent and powerfully argumenta-
tive speech lately made at Lebanon, Coz.
John w. Forney thus graphically described
and compared the opposing candidates for
Governor of Pennsylvania. 1t would be well
if every man in the State could read and
ponder this comparison:
mo higher tribute could have been paid
to Gen. Geary than in the selection of his
competitor. The Democratic conventian,
keenly sensible of approaching defeat, set
aside their worthiest for their weakest man.
Unable to induce soldier to carry their flag,
and unwilling to consign their most distin-
guished citizen 20 the humiliation oc an over
whelming defeat, they placed gentleman
upon their ticket whose single claim rests
upon the fact that he is certain to secure the
largest majority for Gen. Geary. Our can
didate could not expect, under any clrcum-
stances, to receive the suffrages of the men
who prayed for the defeat of himself and his
gallant squadrons, and as it would have been
cruel to deprive these citizens of an oppor-
tunity to vote, Mr.. Clymer was kindly and
mercifuliy put forward"
There Is, however, peculiar value in
such an antagonist. Geary and Clymer are
exact antipodes in all respects. Clymer boasts
OF his royal, or rather aristocratic ancestry
Geary is the son of poor and honest Penn
sylyania mechanic. When Clymer was
wing, Geary was democrat. When Demo-
cracy was made the shield of slavery, Clymer
became Democrat and Geary Republican
While Clymer was refusing the use of the
ballot to the soldier in the far-off field, Geary
was standing under the bullets of the rebel
foe. While Clymer insists that the doors of
Congress shall be thrown open for the un-
conditional admission of such Southern
conspirators as Alexander II. Stephens, the
Vice President of the Confederacy, Geary
stands with Congress and insists upon such
guarantees and conditions as will do Justice
to all loyal men and prevent the calamity of
another rebellion. N

va We do not think it advisable to
enter in discussion with our neighbor Of
the Gazette in regard to Gen. Geary and
Thaddeus Stevens. The question was a
plain one, and needed no circumlocution.
The Gazette, unfortunately, confounds the
events OF the present day, with those of the
past, and draws the same conclusions from
each. The Democrat said that Gen. Geary
endorsed Thad. Stevens in evcrvtb;no
We said then and say now, that neither
Gen. Geary or Congress endorsed Thaddeus
Stevens in his extreme views, and the re-
cords show that Mr.. Stevens amendment
to confer the right of suffrage on negroes
received only 80 votes, or not over third
Of his own party. Mr.. Stevens is an able
man, and we think patriotic one, but he
entertains extreme views on some things
no. endorsed by the majority in Congress,
There are many Union Republicans who are
opposed to negro suffrage, and it is not
only improper and unjust, but worse than
folly to attempt.to saddle the extreme views
OF any man on candidate without au-
thority. We stated facts, and If the Gazette
can show that they are not facts let it Go
SO, but not by such twaddle as fear of
Purdy, after having himself played into
his hands by aiding him in the attempt to
make Gen. Geary odious In the eyes of con-
seryative men.

CLYMER's REcoRD.-On the 5th of Janu.
ary, 1854, the following resolution was be.
fore the Senate, and Hester Clymer voted
in the negative:
"Res0lred By the Senate, That the thanks
of the loyal people of Pennsylvania are due,
and are hereby rendered, to General U. s.
Grant, and the officers and soldiers serving
under him, for the series of gallant services
and glorious victories resulting in the liberia
ton of the faithful Union people of East
Tennessee from a military despotism more
CALLING than ever was that of Great Britain. y
The vote stood 16 to 16, and the resolu-
tion was lost.
The "gallant service" which opened the
gates .of East Tennessee, was the fierce
fought field of Chickamaugua. The soldiers
OF this county know all about that battle,
an ana the sequence of fights that followed it.
rhls resolution was vote of thanks by the
commonwealth s of Pennsylvania to the nth,
!oth and 10th Pennsylvania regiments OF
lhlantry' and the numerous Lancaster county

BUFFALO, June &c.

BUFFALO, June 26.
During the tornado yesterday afternoon
the schooners Mazzeppa and G. o. Shawk
broke from their moorings and ran into the
canal boat Monitor, killing a Mrs. Mallory
wife of the steersman.
A man was killed at Black Rock by car
on the track being blown on him. Another
man was fatally injured, it is supposed, by q
brick from falling chimney on the Kremlin
block.
The roof of the west wing of the Found
ling Asylum, on Edward street, was blown
in, and three children, who were in the play
room at the time, were almost buried in the
debris, but none were seriously hurt.
A heavy beam forced its way to the root
of Captain Dobbin's house, on Niagara st.
which it crushed. The cupola of school
house No. /, on Seventh street, was carried
away; the skylights on the Board of Trade
rooms were broken; nearly half of the upper
root of the Niagra Falls railway depot gave
way to.the storm the tower on st. Joseph's
cathedral was damaged, and the wood ork
of st. Joseph's church tower was swept
almost entirely away. The Arcade building,
occupied by Messrs. Brensbane, had about
thirty feet of cornice torn off; the double
skylights over Slaight's billiard saloon were
smashed in; L. L. Howard's machine shop
and agricultural works, on Chicago street
were partially destroyed. The organ factory
of Mr.. House, on Clinton, near Elm street
had its front blown in. The total loss has
not been estimated. The storm lasted about
half an hour, and was worst known for
many years.
