The Disfranchisement of $4,000
Soldiers.

Some Republican journals have under
taken to make light of the circumstance
that the pending Constitutional Amend
ment, in the event of its adoption, will dis
franchise from sixteen to twenty thousand
soldiers who did faithful service until the
actual close of the War. 1t won't do. The
Cincinnati Commercial finds, upon investiga-
ton, that the Amendment will disfranchise
about 240OO White soldiers. This, it
thinks, friendly as it is to Negro Suffrage,
willnot do-thinks it will not do to dis
franchise $4,000 Whites that about 6,172
Negroes may be made voters. More than
this: it thinks it will be incumbent on the
Republican State Convention to repudiate
the Amendment; but at the same time de-
clare in favor of Negro Suffrage. A beau
tiful fix the Republican party has got itself
into by reason of this Amendment. It
seals the fate OF the Republican party in
Ohio.

The Pardon RnSine.S

Among other ridiculous charges upon
which the Radicals declared they would
impeach the President, was the " reckless"
"indiscriminate," I" unjustifable," cor
rupt," and reasonable" pardon of
TRAITORS" So certain were the Ashleys,
Buffers, and that like, of catching the
PresidenG on the charge of unjustitiable
leniency to rebels. that a resolution of
inquiry was put through the rump, re-
quiring the President To furnish the names
of all pardoned persons, and the names of
those upon whose recommendation par
dons were issued. The list furnished (see
Nea0 York 1ribune) foots up l. 64S of which
number l,l69 were granted at the solicita-
tion OF prominent Radicals. 35S at the re-
quest OF good UnioniSts, and 12I on the
Presidents own motion. The following

Profession VS.. Practice.

While Republican politicians are so pro-
fuse in their professions of love for the
Negro and their assertions that he should
be allowed voice in the Government, they
withhold practical testimony to that effect
when it is in their power to give it. A few
days ago, the Republicans of Rochester.
New York, when they met in Convention
to nominate delegate to the Constitution
al Convention, refused to confer nomina-
ton upon FRED. DOUGLASS, who is regarded
generally as about the smartest Negro in
the country. And his complexion is not
very dark, either. South Carolina does
better than that. -sss

Tuesday evening at about eight o'clock. DIR.
w. ID. Williams had his horse stolen while
hitched at the Jack Brock House, about two
miles from town. The animal is a light

nation as to where she may be found.

INQUIRY having been made as to the
salary of the Jury Commissioners elected
this fall, under u late act of the Legisla-
ture, it may be we'll to state that the law
allows them two dollars and a-half per
day for the time actually occupied in the
performance of their duties. As it will
probably not occupy more thar ten days,
at farthest; each year, to attend to the
duties devolving upon them, the salary of
each will scarcely average twenty five
dollars year. The Office, as will be seen,
is cue Of honor rather than profit.

MRS. LINCOLN For several weeks
past the newspapers of the country have
been filled with accounts of the proposed
sale Of Mrs. Linccln's wardrobe, in the
enumeration of which great care was
taken TO give prominence to the number
and quality Of each piece of clothing and
each article OF jewelry, the aggregate value
OF which is set down at many thousands
of dollars, sufficient, if divided into th.ee
parts, to make three women, as good and
deserving in every particular as Mrs. Lin
coin, comfortable. When Mr.. Lincoln
ceased to live he left his wife a compe-
tency. After his death kind friends did
much for the widow Mrs. Lincoln had
amassed fat sum of money in her own
name. When the people are asked to
sympathize with a distressed individual
they naturally ask what has become OF the
meaDs which the sufferer once possessed
How was it lost? Was it stoleE or squan-
oered If Mrs. Lincoln has lived in
r!otous extravaganza, then she has de-
servedly earned by wiiIful waste woful
want. When her husband was first elected
President this lady was an extremely plain
Illinois wife, witL no particular claim to
recommend her as superior to ordinarily
plain Hoosier danes. At Springfield, H.
linois, she lived for years on 81 200 per
auEum, and we venture the assertion that
she even was certain OF comfort on less
sum than that. Since she left the Execu-
tive Mansion, Mrs. Lincoln has had an
income exceeding $4,000 per aunum, and
only herself to support. Her two children
are self-supporting. How then is it that
she should now be in want? The claim
of such neediness is preposterous, but if
1t be really true it has sprung from causes
which eatit!e the complainant to more
censure tnan sympathy.

ONE of the most notable exposures of
literary plagiarism which has occurred for
several years past has just been made
"Circe." bearing on the title page the
name Of Darlington White, as author, has
just been issued in three-volume FORM
having previously appeared in monthly
instalments in Miss Braddon's BelgrGvia
Unluckily for Mr.. Whites reputation, the
book fell into the hands of critic who
had read more French novels than most
of us care to wade through, and who is
blessed with good memory. He recog-
nized the new and original work as a
free translation of a French book, "Da-
lila,' written by III. Octave Fuilet, and
published as far back as 1858. The
names of the characters and the scene are
altered but the plot is identical, and the
language as nearly So as free translation
will permit. The very title is due 30
suggestion of the French author A neat
little bit of forgery has supplemented this
literary fraud. Immediately the criticism
appeared, letter was published signed by
Miss Braddon, the editress of Belgravia,
expressing regret that the public aud her
self had been imposed on, and offering to
refund the price to any purchaser of the
magazine who had been induced to buy it
by the attraction of the so-calIed original
novel. Now Miss Braddon writes to say
that that letter was forgery.

THE Waynesburg Republican tells of a
violent convu!sion of the earth, which
took place in Alleppo township, Greene
county, g. few weeks ago, with a report
equaling in violence that of the heaviest
artillery, being sufficient to shake house
near by very sensibly Soon after the
noise was heard, large stump with an
immense mass of stone and earth attached
was found sitting on top of the grass, in a
field of Mr.. Longs, near by, and in full
view OF the public road. About thirty
yards belo,o the stump there was hole
about ten feet IN diameter, cores sponding
in shape with the mass which had been
displaced The hole was filled with water
to within two feet of the top. The stump
had been thrown up the hill this consider
able distance, together with log about
fifteen feet long, which was lying across
its roots. The stump and hole in the
ground are still to be seen by any one
passing the road.

his intention to urge upon Congress as

country. The, first is a general impeach-

power to prohibit citizens of tie United
