FACILIS DESCExsUs AyERNI.

The first three words ("The daughter
of') of the telegram announcing the
death Of Secretary Stewards daughter
were lost by the operator here, in ta-
king off the dispatch. This made it an
unequivocal announcements of the death
of the Secretary of State, and for sew
eral hours our community believed he
was dead. OF course the news sadden-
ed the hearts of conservatives, and Of
decent people of all parties, but some
Of the Radicals were evidently delight
ed. One of them-a leader-Openly
declared that he was glad the old pOlit-
ical renegade was out of the way. This
brutal remark comes with peculiar bad
grace, when it is remembered that it
came from one who only a short time
ago was a 'copperhead' and is now wear
ing the bib-and-tucker of his Republi-
an baby-hood. Truly, Facihs Descea-
rs Arerni.

THE New York Tribune has already
abandoned the proposed Constitutional
Amendments and now declares that the
Southern States must be reconstructed
upon the basis of "Universal Suffrage
and Universal Amnesty" That
is, the people of the South, jeff.
Davis, rebel soldiers and all, are to be
re-instated in full citizenship, if the
freed negroes be given the right to
vote. This is nothing more nor less
than bribe offered the Southern peo-
pie to induce them tOad0pt Negro Suf-
frage. 1t is accompanied by the threat
that if they refuse to accept this bribe,
they will bepunished by exclusion from
representation in Congress, for an in
definite period. The Constitutional
Amendment was evidently only snare
to catch such voters as would not face
squarely the question of Negro Suf-
fragc. The next session of Congress
will, doubtless, develop fully the insin-
cerity of the Radical Disunionists in
putting before the country the proposed
Constitutional Amendment as the ba-
sis upon which theya are willing to "re-
admit the Southern States into the I'm
ion. Stevens, Kelley, Sumner, But
Ter and Others will repudiate the A.
mcndment and insist upon Universal
Suffrage. Then will come the tug of
war between the moderate and ultra
factions of the Radical party, There
are breakers ahead, depend upon it!

other States which voted yesterday, in
Guiding New York, Illinois and Mis-

jority. There is little doubt, however,
that the Democrats have gained num-
Der of members of Congress. In Mary

THE Somerset Herald G. JThigis very

THE Somerset Herald d: Whigis very
facetious on the subject of bribing vo-
tiers. Its editor thinks Democrats must
be very corrupt sort of people, if, as
we alleged, Gen. Geary's election was
secured by money. This kind of log
ic will not do, Mr.. Scull. There are
voters enough of the purchaseablekind,
in this State, to give the majority to
either party. You know this as well as
you know anything. tits melancholy
fact, but it is, nevertheless, a fact.
These corrupt men belong to no party.
They are in the market and on election
day become the property of the high
est bidder. But money was used by
your party, in the late election, not on
ly in the purchase of votes, but to pay
the expenses of c0lonizing voters from
other States and from strong into weak
Congressional districts. Your friend,
John COVode, can tell you all about that
little game, Mr.. Scull. DO you deny
that your party used money to carry
the election? If you do, then we an
swer that we will put up wager of
fifty dollars that your candidates for
Congress and Senator both sent large
sums into this county, and if they will
step into the witness-box and be sworn,
we will rest our case upon their own
testimony. What do you say TO this,
neighbor Scull? Come, walk up to
the scratch. In conclusion, if all VO-
ters are so immaculate in your estima-
ton, especially all who vote the Grad
ical" ticket, how do you account for
that singular admiration Of President
JohnsOn's policy, which distinguished
the columns of the Heraid& Wing from
other "RepubIican" papers, whilst Ed
ward ScuIl was Collector of Internal
Revenue, and how do you explain the
opposition to that same policy mani
tested in that same journal, since Ed
ward SculI is no longer Collector as
aforesaid?

WAR.

We want no more Of the scOurge of
war. Quite enough of blood has been
spilled and treasure wasted. The coun-
try needs peace, that the people, by set
tling down to their old callings and
pursuits, may restore material prosper
ity and happiness. Humanity shrinks
from the shedding of fraternaI blood,
and the great majority of the Ameri-
can people, true to its instincts, desire
peace and fraternal feeling.
The Radical leaders, however, want
more blood. Jackal and hyena-like
the taste they have had only whets
their appetite for more. Blood blood I!

ser animals ofthe pack throughout the
countryyelp in their feeble way, blood!

There are reports that they intend to

BALTIMORE, Nov. Sunday Noon.
The counsel for Gov. Swann's HeWly-ap-
pointed Commissioners have made ap-
plication to Judge Bartol, of the Court
of Appeals, for a writ Of hdbeds corpus
to bring before him the parties now held
in custody by the Warden Of the City
Jail, under the order of Judge Bond,
of the Criminal Court.
1t is rumored, probably with truth,
that Gov. Swami went to Washington
to-day.
Fresh Complications.
BALTIMORE, Nov. 40 p. M.-The
writ of habeds corpus has not yet been
served Mt the jail, but will be to-mOr-
row morning, and the friends Of the
newly-app0inted Commissioners claim
that the warden will have to make his
return Immediately. 1t is currently
reported that there will be new set Of
Judges of election announced tO-mor-
row as appointed by the new Commits
sioners. The registers of voters, it is
also reported, have determined to re-
turn their lists only to the judges who
shall be appointed by Gov. SWann's
Commissioners. If this be so, there
will be fresh complications. There is
no doubt that the Police Board will ar
rest all persons assuming to act in any
capacity as by the authority Of the reg
ularly appointed Commissioners.

MARYLAND.

The cloud of war in Maryland grows
darker and more threatening. The ev-
idence against the Police Commission
ers fixes upon them a most dam
ming record and will startle the whole
country by the villainies it brings to
light The Commissioners, it appears,
selected as their subordinates the most
disfeputable and desperate characters
that could be raked from the dens of
great city, men who had no reputation
to lose, and who were stepped in crime
and would be mere tools in the hands
of their masters, the Radicals, to carry
out the bascst partisan purposes
Among the Judges, Inspectors and
Clerks of election were scoundrels Of
everyshade. Pimps, Bummers, Bawdy-
house keepers, Thieves and Murderers
were made guardians Of the ballot-bOX,
the most sacred of all trusts in Re
public.
With the police of the city and the
election boards thus organized the Rad
icals had plain sailing. The police ar
rested and filled the lock-ups with con-
servative voters and the Commission
ers issued an order that they should not
be released until after the polls closed.
Thousands of men who have lived and
voted in Baltimore all their lives We're
refused a vote because they favored the
policy of the President, and thousands
of New England Yankees and New
York rowdies were allowed to vote for
no other reason than that they We're
Radicals. The election officers were
obedient to their masters. The radical
leaders had Onlyto nod or wink through
the window and vote was taken ORE
jected, according to the politics of the
voter. By means like these and by
Others equally barefaced and diabolical
the Radicals carried the Municipal e.
lection in Baltimore, although the con-
Servativas outnumber them two TO one.
Governor Swan after full investiga-
tion and proof of the facts has removed
the old Commissioners and appointed
others in their place. The old Com
missioners at last accounts, refused to
yield up their authority or surrender
the police property. If they persist in
their course a collision seems almost in
evitable. We believe that Governor
Swan will enforce the laws at every
hazard. He is not the man we take
him to be if he permits a rcvolutiona-
~ faction at home or Radical fanatics
abroad to turn him from his duty. If
the collision comes it may be of the most
sanguinary character. The first blow
in Baltimore may kindle blaze of civ
il war throughout the country. Upon
the heads of the lawless men who pro-
voked the conflict be the consequences.
Since the above has been in type,
We have received further news from
Baltimore. The Police Commissioner
difficulty has been compromised. The
new Commissioners appointed by the
Governor, having been imprisoned on
a writ issued by Judge Bond, are to be
Internationally released on this Tues
day morning. The question of title is
to be tried in the Courts. The old Judges
of Election are to be reno we'd and new
ONES appointed by mutual agreement
of both parties, the Judges to possess,
each, a property qualification of $4,000.

vote of the people. We doubt it, how
