The Way the Election WAS Con-

Allegheny Cattle Market.

ALLEGHENY, TUESDAY, Oct. l6, 1866.
CArrLE-The market was a little more
active this week, and good retailing cattle
sold without much difficulty. at from to
81 cts per tb. live weight. Common cattle,
as has been the case Tor some time past,
were dull and neglected, the demand being
very light and besides, the season is now
almost too far advanced for 'stockers. -
The demand for good shipping cattle was
somewhat better than last week,S several
bunchos changing hands for that purpose,
and this a3 a matter OF course, had ten
dency to make the market considerably
frmer than it otherwise would have been. Z
Another point TO be noticed. is the fact that
the supply was somewhat below the usual
acreage, though it was fully up, to the de-
mand, yet as has been the case for some
weaks past, there were out very few left
over unsold.
SHEEP AND LAMBS The retail demand
for Sheep is not rs active as 1t was during
the summer, yet the supply has fallen off
correspondingly, AMI as consequence,
prices are pretty well sustained Prime fat
mutton sheep may be quoted at to Ct, and
common to medium at 5 to 3d. Myers &
Needy paid cts for drove averaging 100
lbs Lambs sold at fiom 50 to $4t per
head.
SWINE Ho gs are in rather better retail
demand, but there is no improvement to
note in prices, and We continue to quote at
Q! 10 l04, for fair to good avera yes.

lEae Constitutional Amendment
and tBac SOEslB2.

From the Richnond Daily Examiner,
We had supposed that if there wa, anv
one thing that the Northern people did un-
lerstand, Notwithstanding their cxtraordi-
nary and inexcuSabe ignorance Of South
ern sentiment, feeling and purpo cS, it was
that the gross and mnnstrouS outrage on
our rights, concocted by the late Radical
Congress and drnoninatcd "Constitutlon-
al Amer dmcnt,' would never br ratified by
the Southern States. 1t seems We were
mistaken We c,uld reatlily understand
that Radical orators should, in order to in
cite their audiences to the work Of insult
and di>tIanchisemrnt, inform them that all
they had TO do was to elect the Radical tick
ct and the South waul instantly az, tpt the
most funtilating terms that could be offer
ed. Thi, trek OF patty is not surprising,
but it seems by the letter Of our Washing
ton correspondent that there are some
Conservatives at the North who are
weak enough to suppose and to say that this
is the best thing that can be done" and
the it, ference is that the Southern people
are to take the matter into grave consldera-
ton, and perhaps accept the am ndnent
Whatever Of wong the Sou may be
compelled by the fortunes OF war and the
military arm, to safer and endure, is one
thing. Whatever we consent to and ratifr
is another and very different thing. In
the. first case, the infamy of the wrong be-
longs to Oh,rs; IN the second the intamy is
our own. The day that the Southern pro.
pie voluntarily accept this amcnlment, they
will prove themselves worthy OF tho yoke
and not only invite, bat descr' still more
cruel wrong. We have not time Or space at
present to discuss this subject in detail,
but we seize the occasion to inform the
Conservative men retired 10 by our cor
