The Constitutional Amendment-A
Northern View.

Judge L. d. CAMPBELL, Of Ohio, recently
appointed Minister to Mexico, in speech
at Dayton, Ohio, the other day, took strong
grounds against the right Of Congress TO
interfere with the question Of the right of
suffrage in the States. He contcnded that
the practice of the Government from its
foundation sustained this opinion. In no
instance had the Federal Government in
tcrtercd, although no two States had the
same regulations on that subject. He
charged that the Radicals had no motive
in their interference hut to keep the south
crn States ont of Congress and to exclude
them from voting in Federal elections un-
Ill after the next Presidential election, in
order that they may retain power four
years longer.
He declared himself against the amend
ment baSing representation on eoteS. He
is afraid the south will confer the right of
suffrage on the negroes and thus increase
their representative power to the extent
of their ,chole negro population, instead OF
hree.ffthS, as before the war. He thinks
there are other sectional issues besides
slavery, which is now dead, that may rem
der the increase of southern influence in
Congress dangerous to the north. He con-
siders all hypothesis based on the idea
that the negroes would not vote with and
Sympathsc with the whites, upon whom
they must depend for everything, absurd
and dcluSive.

MILITARY Courts ILLEGAL.-Judge Bull
lard, Of Kentucky, in pronouncing his
opinion in the Henderson habeas corpus
case, made the following pointed remarks :
/ agree with Sir James Macintosh that,
"while the laws are silenced by the noise
of arms, the rulers of the armed force
must punish, as equitably as they can,
those crimes which threaten their own
safety and that of society, bit no longer 4;
era'y moment beyond is usarpotion. As
soon as the la,cs can act, every other mode OF
paniShing Supposed crimes is Itself an e"or-
nous crime"
Let the relator be discharged.
The premise, that the courts are illegal,
and the conclusion, "Lct the relator be
discharged" are in admirable proximity.
There are no words wasted between them.
Every friend Of constitutional liberty must
feel the force OF the declaration that the
trial of civilians by military tribunals is
All enormous crime"

THE NUMBER OF MISUNDERSTANDING
LEWIS D. CAMPBELL, recently in public
speech declared that, aS near as he could
remember. "ob0m one h,mdred and Si'fy-
tire amendments hare been offered to the Con-
Stitution Of the United States during the pre-
>ent session Of Congress :" The Radical
party before the war rejected every
amendment to that instrument to save the
Union and avoid the late disastrous war
They would not concur in single one
to save the land from war and devastation
but they now propose hundred and sixty

DIFFICULTY BETWEEN PARTY OF WHITE
MEN AND NEGROEs.-A difficulty occurred
on Thursday night last between party OF
white men and negroes on the railroad.
Both parties were employed by the same
contractor, and were ever involved in some
dispute. On the night above mentioned,
one Oh the negroes grossly insulted one OF
,ne party Of white men, whereupon the
latlsr struck him to the ground with a
SPADE. Several other negroes came to the
rehef OF their comrade, and in very short
.''he polh parties were engaged in gene.
raj row. The white men far outnumbe r;ng
the negroes, soon ovcrpowcred them. bn1
not before two of the negroes were killed
outright. Several on both sides were 50,
verely injured. The white men are Irish
men, and were noted for their industry and
orderly behavior. The negroes were dis
charged soldiers, and were ever ready to
engage in any outbreak with their white
fell0w-laborers. Egl
The assault of the white man upon the
negro at the commencement Of the row is
said to have been perfectly justiAable.--

AN INCIDENT AT PHILADELPHIA.-A
correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette
relates the following as happening at the
Philadelphia Convention:
while Doolittle was speaking, Ser
eeani- Arms McClosey, late of the
Charleston Con ention, handed bottle of
whiskey to stupid radical reporter to
pass up to the platform. of course he
wanted it to be slipped up quietly. The
reporter did not seem to understand the
Democratic way, and holdingit up as high
as possible he reached it up over the stage.
For a moment every Democratic eye was
on it, and all lips in sight of the reporters
table gave an instructive smack. But it
was not just the thing to have that bottle
there, and the reporter seemed inclined
to hold it there till somebody look ii. At
last Vice President advanced across the
platform made raid upon it, and holding
II under his coat, took it where it could be
appreciated"

GEN. GRANT AND A LITTLE Boy
An accident and afterwards an interesting
incident occurred at Auburn, N. T., while
the Presidential party were stopping in
that place. A boy, the son of Mr.. Rich
ardson, rushed toward the carriage TO
Shake hands with Gen. Grant, but in his
efforts to do so, fell under the wheel, there
by SCATTERING his leg. He was conveyed
to his home. The boy then sent word
to Secretary Seward that he.was anxious
TO see Gen. Grant, and the latter affected
by the circumstances as related to him by
Mr.. Seward. took with him Surgeon
Barnes and called at the house Of the suf-
ferer at late hour in the evening, and on
parting told the youth when he recovered
to write him letter and he might be of
use to him.

Escape of Fenian Prisoners.

Ottawa City, Canada, was startled on
Sunday by the announcement that Mike
Murphy and five of his principal COM
panions, all Fenians, had escaped from
the Jail at Cornwall and made their way
across the river to the United States
Extras were Immediately issued, and the
greatest excitement prevailed. 1t appears
that the escape was effected during
heavy rain-storm, through an opening
made by the prisoners in the wall of their
cell. There was whole company OF SOL
diers on duty around the prison, which,
besides, is considered the most secure in
Canada.
A double line guarded the prison night
and day. A large camp was in the vicin-
ity, and the gunboat Royal was also in
the river. The escape of the prisoners is
therefore regarded as the next thing to a
miracle.
Some are of opinion that the govern
ment connived at the matter to get rid OF
the responsibility Of dealing with the
prisoners others that there were Fenians
among the guard, and others that they
must have been drunk or asleep. The
greatest Indignation is felt, and intelligent
Canadians say that they and their militia
will now become the laughing stock both
Of the Fenians and the American people
Faint hopes are still entertained that
Murphy and his companions may not yet
have succeeded in making their way &c
the United States. Canada is IN bad TEN
per just now.

Vermont Election.
A SWEEPING UNION TRIUMPH.


The result of the election in this State
on Tuesday is one Of the most sweeping
Union victories which has ever occurred
in this State. Gov. Dillingham; is re-
elected by an increased majority, there
being Union gain of several thousand
over last year. Judge Poland in this dis
trict, and + Il. Woodbridge in the first
district are both elected to Congress by
overwhelming majorities. In the third
district there is no choice as was expected,
r but both Hoyt and Baxter are ahead of
the democratic candidate. The Senate is
unanimously Union, and the House con-
tanning some 235 members are all Union
except about 10 or %. So far as returns
4 have been received, there is handsome
Union gain,b our readers know of course
that the Union party have very little to
gain from.
The verdict is emphatic, and Vermont
stands by the Union faith as she always
has, firm and unfiinching as her everlast-
ing Green Mountains. She believes that
traitors should take back seat in the
work of reconstruction, and that the gov
ernment should be in loyal hands, and not
in the hands of those who attempted to
destroy it.
We have as yet comparatively but few
names of those elected to the Honse but
among them we find Stewart of Middle
bury who will undoubtedly be reelected
speaker. Among the other prominen
and experienced members are Maj Rounds
of Chester, Prout of Rutland, and Clarl
Of Poultney A complete list Of Sena
tors elected will be found in another place

THE HAIR Crown OF GLoRY.-He
whose ingenuity has invented something
to prevent premature Badness, arrest the
Failing Out Of the Hair, Promote its
Growth, Eradicate Humors and Hair
Eaters, Keep the Scalp in Cool and
Healthy condition, and Change the Hair
to its Natural, Original Color, is indeed a
public benefactor. All this BARRETT's
HAIR RESTORATIVE" seems to do to a
charm, as a mass Of testimony from some
of the most prominent and influential citi-
zens in the country will show /; and so far
as we know, they all concur in the fact
that the effect, after using one bottle only,
is truly miraculous.

OUTRAGE IN Observation-Disclosures,
New Orleans and Memphis, are names
synonymous with outrage and murder.
AT negro camp meeting held near the
city of Baltimore on the 30lh ult., gang
of miscreants attacked the negroes while
in the midst of their deyotions, beating
and otherwise maltreating them. The
negroes rallied, and drove their assailants
from the ground two or three times, and
at last, through the influence of white cler-
gymen, order was restored; not, however,
until one white man was killed, probably
by stray shot. Tie rulfians used vari-
Gus raIlying words, and among them, was
heard -" How about New Oleans3" Such
scenes as this, and the one recently enact
ed at New Orleans, show plainly that the
rebellion is not dead, but sleepeth."

THE OLD ATLANTIC CABLE.-The
old Atlantic cable has been caught up
from the bottom of the ocean and spliced
to new continuation" anil the Great
Eastern is now on her way to New Found
land perftcting the line. After many
discouraging failures, the prize slipping
away just as it was to be secured. the
splice was made Sunday morning. paying
out commenced, and on Sunday night all
was going well. We get this news by the
Great Eastern telegraphing through the
old cable to yalentia, Ireland, and valen-
tia repeating it through the new cable to
Hearts Content. This fact shows that
the old wire is in working order and gives
promise of speedy doubling, and, we
hope, also a cheapening, of cur telegraph.
&c facilities with Europe.
