of Judge Abel, since removed by Gen.

the acts of the accused parties on which
the indictments were found consisted
simply in being present at a deliberate
meeting held for the avowed purpose Of
advancing, by peaceable and legal means,
the interests and prosperity OF the State,
and that such meeting constituted no
crime, offense or misdemeanor against
the laws Of Louisiana. That the right
Of the aforesaid parties and all other
citizens OF the United States to assemble

or matter whatsoever, is secured by the
Constitution and laws of the United

MAINE.-A letter from Bangor, Me-,
says: "A subject which is just now re-
ceiving the attention and exciting the
feelings of our Piscataquis neighbors, is
the discovery of rich mines of silver,
copper and lead near Foxcroft. Five
lodes have thus far been discovered,
running in lines parallel with each other,
and all of them have been opened to the
length of about fifty feet, and some
twenty-five feet in depth. The thickness
of the veins increases as they deepen,
and no diminution in the valuable char
acter of the ore is yet detected in any
direction. Several assays have been
made, all showing rich results. The ore
is found to contain from $3.50 to $3.50
worth of silver TO the ton. The purer
part is found to contain as high as
seventy five per cent. Of lead, the princi-
pal part of the ore being argentiferous
galena. Other parts of the same lode
produce from twenty-five to thirty per
cent. of copper in connection with gale
na. Slight indications of gold have also
been detected, but as yet In the very
smallest amounts. Indications of SINH
lar veins of ore are said to have been oh.

FRIDAY, JTNE IA, 1867.
The Trouble OF Gov. Perry of south
Carolina.

Governor Perry of South Carolina is
in a great state OF excitement at the
tendency in that State to accept the re-
construction act, and has issued an ad-
dress to the people upon the subject,
which evinces a warmth Of feeling that
shows him to be specimen of the most
perfect tlre.eating class. He informs the
people that it is heresy, kindred to, but
worse than secession, and that it Will
reduce the whites TO condition of
abasement, at the same time making the
black lord his superior in politics and
society. If the people consent to the
required terms, he says they will be
compelled to sit beside negroes, ride
with negroes, eat at the same table with
them and subject to the jurisdiction Of
colored officials. He asserts that sooner
than submit to this he would endure
despotism all his life and bequeath 1t to
his children as an Inheritance.
The Governors philosophy about tax
ing the alternative Of military govern
ment and bequeathing 1t to future gen
Grafton, is decidedly impractiCable and
not little poetical in character. 1t is
philosophy of this kind that brings no
good to anybody. Governor Perry may
persevere In his determination to oppose
reconstruction so far as his action indi-
yidually is concerned, to the last. He
can only cast one vote-any colored
man can do Just as muCh-and he is but
a small fraction of the community which
is to decide upon the subject, Under
the Act of Congress, the colored man is
not to vote by proxy, through his mas
ters, but is to vote for himself. They
are manifesting a disposition to cast
their own ballots like sensible, intelli-
gent freemen, and therefore it is highly
probable the military reconstruction act
will be adopted. This will leave the
Governor at liberty to seek some asy-
lum where the old patriarchal spirit
is still in vogue. He cannot go to
Brazil, for emancipation has Just been
decreed by the Emperor. The Governor
must certainly be in dilemma where to
find a safe refuge from his woes. Some
OF the Spanish dominions may perhaps,
for time, afford him comfort, but none
can tell how long the institution the
Governor loves so well will be main
tanned even there.
The Governors Examinations do not
seem to disturb the mass of the people Of
his State, as they are beginning to re-
gard negro equality with calm minds as
is instanced by Wade Hampton address,
ing his colored fellow citizens, with
assurances OF distinguished considera-
tiOn promising perpetual friendship, and
Governor Orr praising the moderation
shown by the freedmen in their new
estate, and that they are not so alarmed
about the degradation to come to the
chivalry, as Perry imagines.
1t is not to be supposed that the poll
ticians of the Palmetto State partiCu-
larly relish the terms upon which re-
organization of their political privileges
is extended. The prospect of being left
out in the cold if they reject these, is not
agreeable to them, but they will I'M
doubtedly make a virtue of necessity,
and do what they cannot escape, and &C
cept it with the best posi- BILE grace.

BRSNINGTON.-The machinery for the
Bennington Manufacturing Company's
mammoth Shawl Factory, has arrived
from Europe and is being delivered at
the mill. 1t is said to be the finest in this
country, The work of setting it up
will commence in a few days.
The last number of the Banner says
For some weeks past there has been
not little trouble existing between the
pastor Of the Roman Catholic Church in
Bennington and Peter Mcclure and
family, as we have had occasion hereto
fore to comment upon in our paper. We
had hoped that the parties had before
this become recouciled TO each other
and settled down upon friendly and
Christian relations But it seems other
wise, if We are informed correctly. 1t
seems that on Sunday last, Mr.. Mcclure
and wife-who by the way are some
what in years, and founders of the Catho-
lie Church in this tOwn-went to the
church, as is their custom, and found
the door locked; but after waiting
awhile, the Rev. Mr., Ryan, their pastor,
came, and the door was unlocked. Mr..
Mcclure and wife then walked up the
steps and were going in, when they were
pushed back by the minister, and told
that they could never enter that church,
nor any OF their family. Mr.. Mcclure
told him that ne had quite an interest
in the church, and thought if he was
strong enough he should enter, and
called to his wife to come with MIN,
which in attempting to do, she received
black eye and cash upon her fore
head from the fist Of the pastor. He was
assisted in tAis unchristian conduct
towards two aged members of his flock
by one who ought to have been in bet
ter business. The matter will be brought
before the County Court"

BURLINGroN.-The Times gives the
following additional particulars relative
to the disastrous dre at Burlington on
Tuesday night
The Howard House" was clearly Que
OF the ancient landmarks" Of Burling-
ton. Built in 1918 [torty-nine years
ago. by Mr.. Milligan it was for some
time dwelling house. In later years,
Mr.. Horatio Powell purchased the house,
who afterwards sold it to Truman Pow
ell and he to MIR. B. B. Bishop, of Rich
mond, who converted it into a tavern.
In 1886 R. NJ. Adams became the pro-
prietor of the house and kept it until
l849, when Lemuel s. Drew leased it for
three years He has been since sue
ceeded by Messrs. S. S. Skinner, S. S.
Smith and D. c. Barber. The walls OF
the Howard" still remain to-day and
this is all that points out the site Of
this popular hotel.
Among other sufferers by the fire was
c. Fl. Sheldon who had room in the
Howard House. He failed to reach his
room until too late to save anything.
He lost property to the amount of $500,
including his entire wardrobe and &C
counts.
Mr. Skiff's horse spoken of as burned
yesterday, was found in the stable of the
American" alive and well yesterday, at
which Mr.. Skif' feels profoundly CRATE
ful.
Geo. H. Bostwick & Co. lost 10000
feet of hard wood lumber. 1t was
insured for 81 500 in the Insurance Com
pany of North America.
The tenement houses belonging to
MIR. Adams west Of the Howard House,
were occupied as follows:
Frank McKenna, carter Patrick
Sheridan, laborer; Glode Amblo, labor
er; Henry Shiett, boatman, and two
widow women named McEvoy and
Thompson. They lost about all their
household goods. Mr.. W. FL. Lane who
was absent at the time of the fire lost
two tons of hay and so bushels Of oats.
