inge iIee from reIrOach, and to show proper
respect 20 the people whom II serves. No mark
OF that respect is more i'm mportant than o rigid
observance OF the tme-honored parliamentary
practice of arguing before voting. The practice
OF voting without arguing Is still IN its infancy,
and Mr.. Johnson's excesses, and the excitement
OF the war, blind the public we fear, to its
danger But II cannot be checked q minute too
soon. It will, If allowed to run, develop a
temper amongst politicians which would soon
make representative institutions a sorry farce.

The Majority In COMgress-HOw They
shOuld Use Thelr Power.


Should Use Their Power.
From The Times.
The frmness of the Union majority in Con-
gress cannot be doubted. There will be no
hinching from the responsibilities of the hour
no evading the work to be done, or doing it i'm
perfectly. And that moderation will be
mingled with hrmness, and the exercise of
power tempered with prudence, seems at least
probable
The action OF the Senate on one or two sub
jects shows that that body will not hesitate to
use its opportunities as against unseemIv haste,
Its refusal to dispense with rerersnce 10 Com.
mttee in the case of the bill repeallnp the
amnesty power OF the President and the delov
In regard TO the District of Columbia SufiTasSs
bill, are indications of a desire that whatever is
done shall be done in order. In neither OF the
cases Is there any reason to apprehend diff
ference OF opinion between the two Houses as to
the merits OF the measure involved. The Senate
majority are as fixed In their purposes as the
majority of Representatives; and we do not ap-
prehend difference either as TO the nature of
the objects TO be accomplished or the means to
De employed. IT is simply difference between

Affairs In Maryland.

In the city of Baltimore the persons des-
ignated to hold elections are appointed by
the Police Commissioners, board created
by law, and chosen, we believe, by the
people of the city In the other districts OF
the State these election officers are appoint
ed by the Governor The Police Commis-
sioners of Baltimore are Republicans, as
are large majority of their constituents
Gov. Swami is a friend and supporter OF
President johnson The Commissioners
appointed Republicans, while in every IN
stance, as is stated by the Baltimore An'ert-
can, the Governor appointed men of the op-
posite party. Parties in Maryland are not
as with us, divided into Republicans and
Democrats, or Copperheads, but into Union
men and rebels; but the Union men are
generally Republicans of the most radical
type. The opposing parties are more wide
lv separated, and more bitterly hostile, than
in any other State.
There is a registration law in that State
requiring every citizen who is registered as
a voter to take an oath that he in no way
aided rebellion, which excludes thousands
who were active rebels from the polls. To
get rid of the obstruction to rebel suffrage
the Governor has been applied to to remove
the Police Commissioners of Baltimore. In
compliance with this request the Governor,
last week, summoned the Commissioners tc
Annapolis to have hearing, but what the
result will be has not, as yet, transpired
Should the Governor take it upon himself
to interfere with the law, and with its es
tablished institutions, there may be very
warm time in Baltimore at the election IL
November, as the Union men of Maryland
seem determined not to be imposed upon
or defrauded out of their lawful privileges.
1t may be well enough also to state tha
the Governor is candidate for the United
States Senate; but unless he can, by some
means, secure the votes of the twenty lone
members from Baltimore he has no chanc,
of an election. 1t is thought that if he can
on some pretext, get rid of the Police Com
missioners, and thus sweep away the Unior
Republican election officers, and open tht
way to rebel voters, his friends mig hit carry
that city, and he accomplish his aspirations

Solving the Mexican Question.

The news from Washington, says the Com
mercial is that the Mexican problem is about
to have solution in the Treaty or Treaties,
wherein it is agreed that Maximilian and
the French troops will leave Mexico this
year that the United States will assume
the protectorate of the country and the
French claims, in consideration of which
Lower California and other. territories are
conceded to the United States. This agree
ment is alleged to have been made with the
Macmillan government.
This may be very good and it may be a
very bad arrangement for the United States.
One item rather important in determining
the character of the bargain is omitted and
that is the amount of the French claims
Lower California is doubtless very vaua-
BILE piece of land, the possession of which,
on many accounts, is extremely desirable
though it is probable we might get along
without it-but valuable as it is there may
be such thing as paying too much for it,
As to the protectorate business, it may
prove an elephant, or prize. Protector
ates precede absorption, or some sort Of own
ership-an arrangement not necessarily ad-
vantageous to either party. We can readi
ly understand, however, that Mexico, once
fairly under the direction and tutelage OF
the United States, would speedily become a
great and stable country, capable at no dis
tant day of taking care of herself and pay
ing back all that it had cost to bring he1
through the nursing period. A protector
ship seemingly is the only thing that can
save Mexico, and insure her future devel.
opment. In general terms, this country
would probably regard treaty having this
for its object with favor If the French
can see in it enough to satisfy pride or pock-
ct, we certainly should be satisfied. 1t
would be square back out, and confession
of failure on her part, and no doubt prove
to be the last attempt for very long time to
upset the Monroe doctrine
When more is known of the arrangement
we can tell better what are its advantages
and disadvantages.

ST.. ROW, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR.
CLEARFIELD, PA, OCTOBER "a, 1866.
THE NEWS.

The Reading Dispatch of Wednesday
contains the following: A man named John
Eek. living near Princetown, Berks county,
some time ago offered his house tor sale.
For some unknown cause it was not sold.
He then made the following declaration:
that he wished it would burn down over
his head. On Sunday morning, October
18th. the house was discovered to be on
fire. when some of the neighbors rushed up
stairs, where, strange to say, they found
Mr.. Eek dead, having received stroke of
palsy a few moments before the fire.
Through the superhuman efforts of the
neighbors the body was conveyed to the yard
before the house was in ruins.
Says the Uniontown Genus: Fayette
county is becoming noted for its fine sheep
and wool Mr.. Asbury Struble, of German
township, one of our best and largest wool
growers, recently sold lot of IA head
or Silesian sheep to Hon. Henry Clay Dean,
of Iowa, at the following prices: One buck,
$500; one at $50; two lambs for> 500 ,
and ten ewes at $75 each. The sheep were
lately selected and taken by Gen. E. I.
Stickney, an extensive wool grower of Sen
eca county, Ohio. Mr., Scruble took five
premiums on sheep, recently, at the Carmi'
chaels, Greene county, fair.
A singular conscience money case has oc-
CURED in the Pension Office Captain John
Mckee, Thirtieth Indiana Volunteers, now
residing at Hamilton, Ohio, was wounded by
ball, which struck the seventh rib, passed
through the lungs and emerged near the spi-
nal column. He was awarded full pension,
but has returned half the amount received
for the past year, on the ground that his
health is SO improved that he is not enti
tied to pension for that degree of disability
The French sardine fishery has been more
successful this year, than for the past ten. Al
Douarnenez and Concarneau, the principal
centres of this species of industry, eight
hundred and eighty four boats caught up
wards of one hundred and ten millions o.
sardines in the month of July alone, the sale
producing 7O7, ,64S francs. At the end O
the month one thousand sardines could bt
bought for two francs only.
1t is understood that Secretary Seward
has expressed his opinion that England
means to pay the Alabama claims. This
change of opinion is doubtless based on the
information which he received by the las
steamer.
The Democratic county ticket in Ashland
county, Ohio is defeated by majorities
ranging from four to ten votes.
