The Philadelphia Press, under tn,
above caption, advises voters, if they
believe in "the party that createl
greenbacks and tho bonds, " "and tha
stands pledged TO Keep faith with th,
bondholders, and TO maintain the ma
tional credit" to vote for Henry W
Williams. Cooler impudsnoe, in thC
face of the record of Judge Williami
and the action of the Radical party
We never saw, heard, or read of
Does the Press suppose that its read
ers, OF whose intelligence it boasts
know not that Henry W. Williams
and his political friends stand con
victed Of the reputation of the Ale
gheny county bonds, and that suits
are now pending in the courts of that
county TO compel them 10 pay tho
interest on the bonds to which thil
same Judge Williams and his backer.
"stand pledged z" Judge Williams
opposed to Reputation Why, he i,
the very personification of It.
Farther, the party of Judge vii
liams it was that carried through the
Legislature the bill to "repudiate' the
payment Of the interest of the State
bonds in specie, when that party stood
"pledged TO keep faith with the bond
holders of Pennsylvania" Our read.
ers will see in the following extract
from the African organ at Harrisburg
how the record of this Jdiihfm party
stood:
EVERY Republican in both houses voted for th,
BIZ, every Democrat, except Senator Kiusey
opposed It. We give the yeas nni nays in n,
Senate as found on page 67s Of the "Legislaiiv,
Record" of 1864:
Yeas-Messrs. champneys, connel Fleming
Graham, Hoge, Householder, johnson, Kinsey
Lowry, Nichols. St Clair, Turrell, Worthingion
and Penny. Speaker-ls.
Nays-Messrs. Beardsles, Buchcr, Clvmer, Don.
oran, Hoskins, Lambert0n, Montgomery, Reilly
Smith, Stein, and Hanace-ll.
Messrs. M'sherry and Wilson stated Hthat tbev
were paired Of showing that this was regarded
as party question, the Copperheads being array
Cd, With one solitary exception, against Il and the
Republicans uHo"iRoHsly for il.
1t will thus be seen, by evidence
from the Harrisburg telegraph, an
organ of Judge Williams party, that
only as far back as 1864, the party
that is now pledged to keep faith
with the bondholdersY unanimously
voted TO repudiate the solemn contract
of the State of Pennsylvania with the
holders OF its bonds.
This unblushing ef'rontery and mis-
representation Of the Press is only
equaled by its efforts to convince the
people that Judge Sharswood is in
favor Of reputation because he de.
cided that Congress could not pass
an act to make deprecated greenbacks
u legal tender for the payment of
interest, when there was a specific
contract, made previous to the enact
mcnt, that il should be paid in silver.
Oh, consistency thou art a jewel =

Legacies to our Children.

It's a natural impulse of the parent,

Nneh legacics as will render them

eomanry and mechanics of the coun-
delve and toll from manhood TO
age for the purpose of leaving
"a respectable legacies to aid them
the world. Every class assumes
y IS asa leading object; and certainly
Is most worthy one. We would

tnou Of the country should look this
Inatter fully in the face, and learn the
br0lnt of debt that their unnatural
parents design them TO pay. The
last national census shows that the
assessed value of all the real and per-
'sonal property in all the States and

would leave q residue, as estimated

equal to about one-third of the value

in time, added to the present national

that city was very much alarmed lest
the Capital would be removed. That

it is said that Pierpont's threat that
unless Surratt should be found guilty
the Capital would be removed, had
reference TO the special hobby Of that

Terrorism in Tennessee.

There will never be peace or order
in Tennessee, as long as Brownlow
with his satellites, are "thc govern.
ment." We hear by telegraph that
"Gorernor Brownlow and The Mayor Of Nash
vile At odds regarding the power Of appointing
election ofhoers for the coming election in Nash
vile. Two sets Of officers have been appointed,
one set by each Of the two dispuianis. frownloW
threatens the municipal authorities with his mill
tia II they persist, and the city authorities have
appealed 70 President johnson. A bloody colls-
ion is considered imminent. and General Cooper.
Of the state Guard, is concentrating troops at
Nashville"
There has hardly been a day since
Brownlows accession TO power that a
"bloody collision has not been immi-
nent,--and until the old fanatic is
ousted, we fear, the Reign of Terror
will continue.
There is not to-day, on the face Of
the globe, meaner or moro cruel
despotism, than that under which the
people of Tennessee are groaning,-
and though the Federal Constitution
guarantees to every State a republi.
can form Of government, the very
body which should respect that guar
antee (the Rump Congross) is Brown
lows hrmest support.
The people, however, can appeal
from Brownlow and the Rump, to
their countrymen elsewhere,-and if
we do not misinterpret the signs Of
the times the appeal will meet such a
response, at the October and Novem-
Der elections, as will not only give
them assurance that the day of their
deliverance is at hand but warn the
demagogues who are Just now riding

reer is drawing 10 cIose.--Nel0 York
