In a Bad BOZ
OF BERKs COUNTY

Two classes of our fellow citizens,
arc. at the present time, laborng un-
der great difficulties. We allude to
the "loyal" clergy, and the office hold
crs. Those loyal divines that used to
pray three times a day fer Thy SER
want, the Pres-e-dent, are neglecting
that duty wonderfully, and have act
ually taken to praying for the Rump-
ers, while the office holders are pray
ing alternately "good Lord and good
Devil" not knowing exactly whose
hands they may fall into. If they
were entirely satisfied that Thad.
Stevens & Co., would win, the ''gov-
ernment," would get but very few
prayers. The individual, that for the
past few years, has held it to be q
duty to pray for tho President, and
practiced it himself; but now refuses
to do so, but instead, prays for Ste
vens & Co., is either fool or q knavc.
On the other hand, we are glad that
the course Of President johnson, has
put some of our Christian neighbors
on double duty, in addition to pray
ing for him, they deliver up a petition
for Congress. To this we have nc
objection, because that fragmentary
body above any other, stands in. need
Of all the prayers that can be offered
up. Man, if hc wishes to have his
fellow, believe that he is honest in
his declaration. and the course he is
pursuing, must be consistent. dc
dare not pray for the government
in one breath and for the Bumpers
In the next; because the two are as
Numerically opposed to each other
as day and night-both cannot be
right. We believe the policy of the
President will restore this Union
while that of Stevens & Co, will de
stroy it finally, if the people fail tC
check them in their mad career.

SENATOR MoRGAN-This is the Sen
ator that turned tail on the President,
when the Negro Rights bill came up
in the Senate. 1t was said the change
was occasioned because the n. Y.
Legislature had asked him TO vote
against the Veto. This looked rather
plausible, and many were disposed to
look over his treacbery, bnt it has
since leaked out, that he attempted
to compel the President to. appoint
one of his relations, Collector of the
Port of New York The President
not being disposed to be driven with
tho Morgan harness on, kicked over
the traces, and thereupon the gallant
Senator went over to tho enemy, and
in this way tried to punish the Presi-
dent for not becoming his willing in
strument The night after the trca-
son, the traitor was serenaded by a
negro band in front, while lot of
black wenches attacked him in the
rear, showering down on him a tor
nado of boquets. THIS must have
been a delicious dish, bucks, wenchcs
and posies, all at one charge.

cause Thad. Stevens said if it passed,

however, that not single petition
has been sent INTO Congress for this

loads of them, have been sent from

The Negro Rights Bill,

This disunion enactment passed
over the Presidents veto, is already
breeding trouble. A negro named
barnes. residing Mt Lafayette, IN the
state Of Indiana has brought suit
against a prominent white man OF that
town to enforce contract. The de-
fcndant, for answer, sets up that the
ncrro came into the State in violation
of the 18th article of the constitution
of the State of Indiana, which, under
pains and penalties, prohibits negroes
from coming into the State, and de
bars them from all rights to enforce
contracts, etc.
The negro demurs to the answer
maintaining that the l4th article IS
void and of no effects, because /. II
is in contravention of the letter ana
spirit of the constitution oftho United
States. 2. 1t rs in direct conflict with
the constitutional amendment abol
ishing slavery 3. 1t is void under th'
first section of the civil rights bill
which gives to all persons born in the
United States full right to make anc
enforce contracts, any law statute

contrary Notwithstanding.

and the defendant appealed to tn

The case was submitted on the It'll
