FENIAN ADDREss.-We see General SWEENEY
has issued another address to the Brotherhoo
The Fenian leaders remind us strongly of
'Toots," who, when there was no one to write
10, wrote letters to himself with all the dig
nifty and formallty of an official correspondence.
Such is the style of our sons of Erin. 1t matters
not whether they have anything to say, or if
anybody will read what they do say. But, with
wild desire 70 appear in print, they issue
addresses for the sake of addressing, and maze
up in length what is wanting in ideas.

IMPORTANT DECISION. decision made by
Judge BOWIE, Chief Justice of Maryland, in re.
gard to suit brought against white man for
assault and battery upon a negro, is one of great
importance, and contrasts most iavoraby with
the action of certain judges in the Southern
States. The plea filed by the lawyer tor the
man SoMERs, was that negro could not give
testimony against a white man. No effort was
made to deny the assault, but the proceedings
were all based on the doctrine that the black
has no rights that white man Is bound To
respect. The undoubted legality of the Civil
Rights bill should settle every such case, and
when a compliance with its provisions is refused,
we must impute it not to ignorance, but to de-
sire to avoid obedience to what is now the su.
preme law of the land. Let such a punishment
as that meted out to Justice READ, OF Louisiana.
who was arrested for refusing to administer
those laws which he had sworn faithfully to
fulfil, be inflicted on all who refuse to comply
with the provisions OF the Civil Rights bill.

MExICo.-RoBERT DALE OWEN, IN letter in
regard to Mexican affairs, thus pertinently sums
up the entire policy of the United States Gov.
ernment:-
/. The Republican Government of Mexico is
recognized by the United States as the Govern
meht OF the peoples choice.
2. The Empire was imposed on Mexico by
force, against the will OF the people.
3. The United States deny the right of any
foreign power forcibly to impose monarchy on
any established republic.
A. The United States will never recognize the
so-caled Emperor OF Mexico.
5. The French troops are to be Immediately
withdrawn in good faith, and without any
attempt before their withdrawal to consolidate
Imperial institutions in Mexico.
6. We make no stipulation or condition con-
tingent on such withdrawal, except that we will
abide by the principle of non intervention.
T. In agreeing TO abide by the principle of
non-intervention, we are to be understood as
stipulating only this-that when the French
withdraw we will ourselves respect the self
established sovereignty and independence of
Mexico.
Here is the whole Mexican policy in nut
she'll

COPYRIGHT. An effort is being made to secure
the extension of the Copyright law, not only to
the lifetime of the author, but also to that of
his or her children while they are minors.
Such a change is one only consistent with
simple justice. A book is the property of the
writer as much as any real estate; and why it
cannot be extended for a short time at least,
we cannot perceive.

LANE REDIvIvUs.-A despatch from Leaven.
worth, dated yesterday, asserts that General
LANE is alive and in a fair way to recover. We
do not believe there is another man in the United
States, besides jim LANE, who could have sur
vived bullet through his brain. The "grim
Chieftain" will be grimmer than ever, if he gets
over this.

Amendment OF the Pacific Railroad Bill

WE are glad to see that the President has signed
the bill allowing the Union Pacific Railroad
Company, Eastern Division, to construct their
road due west from Fort Riley, Kansas, up the
Smoky Hill river, towards Denver. This re-
moves the last obstacle in the way OF the speedy
construction of the road, and we look to see
unbroken railroad communication from Phla-
delphia to Denver within the next two years at
f1rthest, and perhaps before 1868.

The two Houses have compromised in regard to
the tax on cotton. The Senate favored five per
cent. and the House two per cent. 1t at present
has been fixed at three per cent. 1t can easily
stand such tax without injuring the crop, or
turning plaIHers from its cultivation.

Radlcal speech Of General John A. logan.

Radical Speech Of General John A, Logan.
No MAN In the West stands higher than General
JOHN A. LOGAN, of Illinois. As an orator and
statesman he has long been in the front rank.
As a soldier on the battlefield none excelled him
in courage, enthusiasm, and all the great quail
ties of successful leadership. He was one OF the
few civilians who, in our late war, achieved
high distinction as a military commander, and
sustained himself throughout. The position
which such man-orator, statesman, soldier
takes upon the great questions of the day is
significant Of the drift of the popular mind.
General LOGAN, until the commencement of
the Shareholders Rebellion, was member of
the Democratic organization. He then forsook
it, and has continued to act ever since with the
Union party. A few days ago he made a
speech, three hours and half long, at Cairo,
Illinois. 1t was radical, eloquent, logical, un-
answerable.
''The proposed amendment to the Constitution
was all right" be said, because II loyal men who
have never faltered in their attachment and de-
votion to free the Government cannot properly
administer the Government, traitors need not
try, and are not entitled to any increased repre-
sentation In the Government which they tried
hard to destroy. 1t has been said treason must
be made odious and traitors must be punished;
consequently we cannot offer reward for
treason.n
Like all the Western men, he was out and out
in favor of the "MoNRoE Doctrine, !" asserting
that it was simply cowardice on the part of the
United States to allow European monarchy to
be established upon our sister republic Of
Mexico.
He adverted to the Fenian movement, and
said he could not for the lite of him see any
good reason for being so particularly enthusi-
astic in enforcing the neutrality laws, since Eng
land has proved that she did not care straw
for them when it was not for her interest to do
so. If the Fenians wished to establish Irish ma
tionality and independence, in Gods name
throw no obstacle in their way; bat Irishmen
must not forget that to deserve American sym
pathy and assistance, they must act with the
party in favor of universal liberty.
We believe General LOGAN is expected to visit
Pennsylvania during the coming campaign.
Should he do so he will meet with such a recep-
ton as lis great talents and distinguished
services render peculiarly appropriate.

The Cambria Iron Works and
a Protective Tariff.

The New York Tribune states that the
Cambria Iron Works paid in three years
for salaries, wages and contract work as
follows 1860, 1907, ,058 91; 1864, ST..
399, 800 80; 1865, 81 ,535, $3.50 "a. Near
ly all this money went to laborers and
their families, and the direct interest far
mers had in it may be inferred from the
reply of the Superintendent of the works,
to the jnterrogatories of the Internal Rev
enue Commissioner. He said:
"The population sustained by tie ope-
rations of our company, consume annually
about 1000 head Of beef cattle, 5000
head of sheep, and the product of not less
than 1000 hogs. Our whole consump-
ton of wheat -four is about &c, 900 barrels.
Johnstown is one of the best markets In
the country for all kinds of food. Large
quantities of the more perishable kinds,
such as garden vegetables, butter, eggs,
fruits. &C., are brought from Pittsburg,
and other Western markets, as the pro-
duction of the surrounding country is un-
able to supply our demand"
Farming land within two miles of the
works is worth from $50 to $500 per
acre, without improvements. If these
facts do not show how deeply interested
our farming classes are in the develop
ment of manufactures, we would be puz-
zled to know what sort of reasoning or
evidence would convince them. a sound
protective tariff is useful in developing
our minerals and staples, in relieving agri-
cultural industry from the pressure of too
much competition, in giving farmers a
home market for their products, in supply
ing a useful and ingenious laboring class
with employment, in obtaining revenue
for the government and reducing taxation,
in making US independent of foreign ma
tions for articles indispensable for general
use, aud in-really enlarging our national
wealth When we have fairly established
our manufactures, we might prudently
consider the subject of low tariffs.

his right hand, and it was half raised as
he crept forward. Not a muscle in my
body moved-not even nay hcart-and my
nerves were like steel l waited until l
could catch the cat like cleaning of the
villains eyes-untilI l could hear his quick,
deep breathing-untilh his murderous knife
was lifted for the death stroke-and then
freed my right arm and raised my pistol
The movement was instantaneous, and nv
aim sure, for the muzzle of the weapon
was within two feet of his bosom | fred,
aud he started back with a sharp eroar.
In moment was upright in my bed,
and more quickly than l can tell it, fred
two shots at McCargan, who had stopped
as his companion reeled back, but who fed
towards the door as l fired at him.
My wife was awake but 1 paid no at
tention to her cries. Quickly as possible
[ leaped out Of bed and rushed towards
the hall where McCargan had disappeared,
for Gilbrand had fallen to the floor, aud [
considered him safe. I found him upon
the hall floor, almost lifeless He could
not speak, and believing that his weak
ness was real, ] hurried back to my room
and struck light, and in as few words as
possible [ Informed my wife Of what
had happened. [ told her that one of
the villains lay upon the hall floor SO
that she could not leave the room with
out passing over him, and she had the
good sense to hide herself under the bed
clothes.
At this point my man servant, a stout
Irishman who did the duties of groom
and gardener, came stumbling over the
passage, and wanted to know what was
| the matter. [ called him in and told him,
and together we held an examination.
| Gilbrand must have died almost instantly,
| for the ball had gone directly through his
| heart. When we found McCargan he was
| just breathing his last One of the bullets
| had fired at him had entered his bosom
Immediately below the sternum, and the
other had passed through his neck, sever.
ing the right carotid artery.
| By this time the household was all
aroused, and for a few moments we had q
strange time of it. But [ managed to
get my wife calm, and when made them
understand that the danger was all over
the others became quiet. Michael moved
| the bodies down into the lower porch
where we found, upon examination, tLat
| the villains had gained their entrance by
prying off the hasp of the back door with
a crow-bar. As soon as it was daylight
sent for the jailor, bidding him bring a
man along with him. 1t so happened
that the jailor had also the Office of the
| deputy sheriff and coroner, so that he was
| Just the man for the business. He came
in due time; the bodies were removed
from my premises, aud he assured me, as
he took them away, that he would much
rather act coroner than as jailor upon
| such customers.
