An Extra Session Of the LEGISLATURE.

1t appears from the intimations had.
from Andrew Curtin that the Legislature
will be called together soon to adopt or re-
ject certain amendments to the Constitu-
ton, which were passed by two thirds of
the present Rump Congress. These amend
ments carry with them the curse of negro
suffrage and negro equality with the whites
in civil and political rights.
This question the disunionists dare not
allow to GO to the people The present leg
islature therefore must act on the matter,
no difference if they were elected at a time
when no issue of the kind was before them
or ever dreamed of.
The disunionists caunot afford to let the
issue come before the people this fall.
1t will be at a heavy expense to the tax
payers if the legislature is called together.
But what does Curtin care for the poor
people who twice elevated him to his pres
ent position! Nothing. The next Legis-
la;ure could dc the work without the addi-
ton ola single cent to the regular expens-
es.-Stdr.

g- Senator DoDlittle declared in the
Rump Senate, the other day. that If the
present Congress had permitted loyal rep
resentatives from the South to- take their
seats at the beginning ofthe session, Uni
ted States bond would be ten per cent,
higher than they are now, and he believed
further that if this had been done. Maximil-
ian would be out Of Mexico" No attempt
was made to dispute this, and no mar Of
ordinary intelligence in the country will
gainsay it. Upon the revolutionary disun.
ion faction in the Rump Congress therefore,
rests the odium of allowing monarchy TO-
be established without protest at our very
doors, and of depreciating the Government
securities. If the bonds were now ten per
cent. higher, the paper currency would be
more valuable too, and the prices of the
necessarles of life would be much lower
than they are at present. The facts that
the rich are losing and the poor suffering
are alike due to the factious disunionism
prevailing in Congress.

Then and Now.

When Andrew johnson first became
President, the Disunionists declared that
for some wise and good purpose
Providence had removed his prede :
cessor, and called HIM to the Executive
chair. Since, however. his course has not
proven to be in consonance with their blood
thirsty, plundering anticipations, AndFe"
johnson is only President by accident. AS
sample ofthe many speeches and sermons
which were delivered throughout the coun-
try, on the death of Abraham Llncoin' IN
which the radicals modestly claimed exciu.
sive proprietorshlp in every Providentlal
occurrence, we quote few sentences from
a sermon preached by one Rev. Crane. IN
Hartford. 1t reads strangely in the hght
of subsequent events. The Rev. gentle
man said:
But it is possible, it is more than posi-
BILE, that just these qualities unified MIN
for the final settlement of this con hlct.-
There Was danger that he would suoordi
pate his executive functions to his personal
sympathies: that he would forget that God
had placed the spOrd Of retributive justice
an has hands to be used that he would feel
that the traitors had suffered enough al
ready, and needed no further punishment
that he would even pardon Davis and Ste
phens, and Johnson and Lee if they should
come into his power. He was drifting in
that direction, and most ofus were drifting
with him,
y If he was in danger Of this mis-.
take, then his work was done, and there
fore God translated him, having SO nobly
done, to glory. But Andrew johnson, a
man of nerve, has had his heart under the
iron heel of this rebellion. He appreciates
treason. His sense of justice is paramount
to his tender sensiblities. He holds a
double edged and keen edged sword which
reaches to the souther most point of FlOri-
da. Therefore | believe that God raised
him up to bring this rebellion to the con-
summation of just retribution. 1t is not
private revenge that he will wreak, but the
vengeance of God, whose annointed minis
ter he is. And so God has given him to
the nation when the nation needed him.
And we will lift our reverent eyes to
heaven to-day, and gazing through our
tears, say, "Thou docst all things well" :
y The nation will understand ere long
that the dark Providence of last Friday
night was a.merciful Providence. Andrew
Johnson is the Joshua " hom God has ap-
pointed to consummate the work which our
dead Moses SO nobly commenced
Now it is a remarkable fact that in all
the 'loyaW pulpits of the land there is to-
day scarcely a single prayer offered up in
behalf of this Joshua who was to lead the
nation to its land of promise. As. soon as
Andrew johnson showed to the world that
he was no bloodhound, the "loyal" preach
ers quit praying for him They refuse to
take anything in their sacred hands which
has rot the smell of blood on it. What
gIoriously consistent record they are max
ing for themselves!

IMPORTANT SOLDIERS MEETING.
The Soldiers In .the Field for President
johnson and Hester CIymer.

johnson ana Helster Clymer.
An enthusiastic meeting of honorably
discharged soldiers favorable to President
johnson and Hester Clymer took place
last evening at the public house No. TO-
South Broad street, above Chestnut
General Wilson McCandless was elected
President, and Lieutenant j. J. Sullivan
was appointed Secretary. The President
appointed Captain powers, Private Samuel
F. Cloak, and Private Charles Van Horn,
a Committee on Resolutions, and they re.
ported the following, which were adopted
unanimously:
Whereas, A so-caled "Soldiers' Conven-
ton" lately assembled at Pittsburg, in
Pennsylvania, under the pretense of ex-
pressing the opinion of the citizen soldiers
of the Keystone state who have survived
the perils of battle and returned to their
homes, on the present condition of public
affairs: and
Whereas, Said Convention, with some
distinguished and honorable exceptions,
was largely composed of "home-guards,' -
and "head-quarter" guards, and quarter
masters, and relieved officers, and some
who had such respect for State rights that
they did not believe in crossing the "Stste
line: :" and
Whereas, Justice to the rank and file
who helped to do the fighting, and those
officers who led their men to the front, de-
mands that they should not be executed
from an expression of their opinion or be-
trayed by interested politicians into yoting
against the cause for which they touqht
therefore
Resolued, That those soldiers who be-
lieve the late war was for the Union of all
the States, and the Constitution is the Su-
preme law of all the States, and for which
they took up arms and who did not fight
to alter our glorious form of government
or to give the negro all the political and
social riohts oftree vhite citizens; and who
believe President Johnson is anxious to Sc.
cure for the people the practical results o.
the late victories won in the field, by re-
storing the States to their constitutional
relations, preserving the Union, and de-
Tending the Constitution as Washington
gave it to our fathers; and who are op-
posed to the action of the so-called Con
gress as revolutionary anti-republican, land
destructive of the general prosperity and
happiness of the whole people-all sucl
are invited to meet at Harrisburg on the
day of A. ID. 1866, in convention, t.
express their opinions and sign their name
| thereto
A committee of thirteen was appointe'
on permanent organization whose duty i
should be to report at next meeting.
:, - After few remarks in reference to tn
objects in question, the meeting adjourned
until next Wednesday evening at SAM
place.-Ags.

The Threatened War I'm Europe.

The steamers Peruvian and China haze
arrived-the former at Father Point and
the latter at Halifax-bringing news TO the
sth inst. Matters are assuming an alarm
ing turn in Europe. Prussia has inaugu-
rated hostile measures by marching her
troops into Hols,ein. The movement
took place on tide 7th, and the Austrians
are reported as concentrating in order to
resist the invasion. A battle is imminent
and cannot long be delayed, and naturally
much excitement is manifested in all quar-
ters. Large bodies of troops have also
been stationed along the southeastern from
tier of Prussia to guard against any sudden
irruption from an army advancing north
ward from Austria. Fsars are entertained
that hostilities may break out upon the
Danube in consequence of the difficulties
between Austria and Prussia All the
foreign Journals agree in considering war
inevitable Breadstuffs and provisions
we're advancing. The closing sales OF Eve
twenty bonds were at 63a. which is little
below the price ruling in this country.
