have no reasonable objection to subscrib-
ing to the amendment and fixing it in the
organic law of the land. As matter of
self-interest, there can be no question that
every national interest of the South
will be greatly advanced by the speedy
and cheerful adoption of the terms which
Congress has seen fit to impose. The
voice of the people in the fall elections
shows thatthey feel themselves to be right,
and that no amount of coaxing or bully
ing will swerve them from their purpose.
The attempt to bring rebels into favor and
power has already reacted with great
force upon the interests of the South, and
the only remedy for the rebel States is to
give up the hope of securing by diploma
cy what they failed to win by arms, and
accept the most liberal terms ever offered
to traitors by any government. The hope
of a coalition with the Democratic copper
Johnson party at the North has been dis
appointed again and again. 1t was the
igais fdtus light that led the South into
rebellion and gave courage to her soldiers
when defeated and disasters met them on
every field. But the sympathy and aid
of copperheads did not save them then,
and will not now. 1t is time that the eyes
of the southern people were opened to the
fact that loyal men rule this land, and that
treason is odious now and henceforth.
After the signal failure of the third party
movement backed by the powerful pat
ronage of the government, no one need
hope that any conspiracy of politicians
will coax or frighten the people into mis-
taken mercy. The terms now offered are
neither harsh, unreasonable or unjust.
They are alike necessary for the welfare of
both sections of the country and the ac-
ceptance of them will settle for ever the
vexed questions which have so long dis
turbed our politics.

Fremont, Friday, October s6, 1866.
A PROSPECTIVE ROW IN BALTrMoBB.

Trouble has been brewing in Baltimore
for sometime, and seems now to have
reached a crisis. The Police Commits
sioners of that city have the power of APP
pointing the judges of election. These
Commissioners are Unionists, having been
chosen by the Maryland Legislature,
which had majority of loyal members.
The Judges of election whom they will ap-
point will of course be loyal. The law OF
that State provides that the Commission
ers can be removed by the Legislature or
by the Governor during the recess but
= only for official misconduct The trouble
grows out of the threatened removal of
the Commissioners by Governor SWAMI,
who is copperhead candidate for United
States Senator. 1t is charged that he has
made bargain with the rebels to remove
the Commissioners and appoint others in
their place who will in turn appoint rebel
judges Of election, by which means swarms
ofiHegal votes can be crowded in unques-
q tioned-resulting in the election of enough
copperhead Legislators to send him to the
United States Senate. In accordance, with
this alleged bargain, charges of official
misconduct have been trumped up against
the Police Commissioner, and the Gov
ernor has appointed to-day, Friday, to
hear the case. The Commissioners deny
the power of the Governor to act as Judge
aud executive both in their cases, and
threaten to resist, even at the risk of blood
she'd. Such, in brief, is a statement of
the case. The excitement has been in
tensiied by rumors that the President in
tends to send United States soldiers to aid
the Governor. The plug uglies, and
sboulder-hitters, and all the rowdy ele-
ments of Baltimore it is said have organ
lied TO assist the Governor, who has issued
a proclamation calculated to add fuel to
bu0 Udlllcs OH Lie OLn6T uduU Tic Luu-
nicipal authorities and loyal men of the
city, concluding that they have justice and
law on their side, are prepared Cor defence.
To what extent the Governor is exceeding
his legitimate authority, does not appear
in the telegrsphic reports; but the infer
ence is plain that he is attempting high
handed piece of political viIlainy, whereby
disfranchised rebels will tread rough-shod
over the rights and interests of loyal men.
We hope the matter is one that can be re-
ferred to some judicial tribunal for settle
ment before the Union people are forced
to resist violence; but if that opportunity
is not afforded, let them maintain their
rights at all hazards. The responsibility
will rest not with them but with the
rebels. !.

The dispatches from Baltimore come from
rebel sources, and persistently attempt to throw
the blame on Republicans. The latest news
states that the Governors party are endeavor-
ing to secure indictments against rominent
Republicans for attempting TO incite riot and
insurrection; also that abundant evidence will
be furnished on Friday, to justify the Governor
in any action he may take. The Commission

THE CHOLERA.

In the early summer a cholera pane
spread through the country, caused by
the arrival from foreign ports successfully
of several vessels laden with cases of that
disease. The alarm was sounded. boards
of heath were organized; towns and cities
were cleaned up; instances were abated !;
private premises were renovated and dis
infected, and scrupulous attention to per-
sonal cleanliness, temperance and the laws
of health was more generally observed by
the people in town and country, all over
the land. The consequence has been that
except in d flew localities, the cholera has
not made its appearance; and even where
it has occurred, its ravages have been
nothing like as fearful as they were in
former cholera years. The immunity en-
loved by this country from that disease,
therefore, is attributable mainly to proper
precautionary work; and the same timely
vigilance continued will undoubtedly pre-
a vent its visitation in the future. Our read
ers need not be told that the work of
preparation and precaution should be kept
up without ceasing. This season has de-
:. monstrated that it is adisease likely to oc-
cur in cold weather as well as In hot,
though Of course not in such formidable
shape. This proves the necessity Of e1er-
eising constant guard against it. But we
think the isolated cases that have occurred
6 here and there at this season of the year
such as those reported in Cleveland,
and other localities-are to be regarded
more as precursors of what may be ex-
pected next summer, than anything else I;
and it will be wise to heed the admonition
by neglecting no sanitary measure that
should be attended to. If our towns are
thoroughly cleansed-the rubbish of the
streets and alleys removed-old priyy
vaults filed up and new ones dug-cel-
lars cleaned out-drains purified -and
private premises oyerhauled and cleaned,
very little apprehension need be entertain
ed regarding the appearance OF the cholera
next summer. 1t is well enough to take
time by the forelock. Te be forenarned
is to be forearmed.

rue AMENDMENr IN POCKET FORM.

THE AMENDMENT IN POCKET FORM.
F, On the first page of the JOURNAL we
print the proposed Constitutional Amend
ment the adoption Of which, by the rebel
States will doubtless be made the condi-
ton precedent to restoration and repre-
sentation. A late number of Harper'S
Weekly condenses the Amendment into
pocket form thus:
Ist. 1t defines and defends citizenship in the
United States and its rights.
I'd. 1t bases representation upon the voting
population; SO that if any State chooses to keep
a portion of its population uneducated, debased
and powerless, it shall not use that population
to balance the intelligent and thrifty of other
States; and also, that the change produced by
emancipation in the original constitutional ad-
justment of representation may be ratified.
Sd. Whoever has held Office by the tenure of
an oath to the Constitution Of the United States
which oath he has violated in order to plot and
act treason, shall be disabled from office until
Congress relieves the disability.
Ith. The national debt shall never be repu-
dated, and the rebel debt shall never be paid
by any State, nor any payment be maGe for
emancipated slaves.
5th, Congress shall have power to enforce
these guarantees by appropriate Legislation. g.,
If the professions of loyalty made by
Southerners are genuine; if as they de-
clare, they don't propose to re-establish
layery or pay the rebel debt they can

Twenty-Five men were at work in the building,
all Of whom were buried in the ruins. Four
teen of them were taken out dead and three
others are severely injured, The explosion
shook the buildings in the vicinity for the dis
iance of several squares like an earthquake, and
the atmosphere was filed with smoke and ashes
Pieces of The boiler were also thrown to great
distance Buildings block off were pierced
by the flying fragments and car half block
from the explosion was thrown IF the track
The cause of the explosion was the weakness of
the boiler of which the proprietor is said to
have been notified by his engineer some days
ago. Afer the explosion the ruins took fire and
burned furiously some time in spite of the
exertions of the iremen. Two two-story
dwellings adjoining were also consumed,
