FRIGHTENED A YOUNG GIRL.-A
young and respectable girl, about six
teen years old, who resides on the
Island with her parents, was passing
through the I'd Ward Market House,
Saturday morning last, on her way
home. When near the upper end, n
big, burly man stepped out, and called
to her to stop. The girl made no reply,
but hurried on past the Grant House.
Looking back, she discovered that the
man was running after her. Her fright
was owextreme, and she hardly knew
what to do. But, seeing officer Scrog-
gins short distance in advance o her.
she pressed on towards the bridge
thinking that she would be safe. The
man, however, did not notice the OIL
Ger, or, il he did, did not care for him,
and continued his pursuit of the fiying
girl. Before she had got very far ont
on the bridge, thei man overlook her,
and desired her to go along with him.
The girl was now thoroughly appre-
hensive of evil, aud burst into fears.
but had sufficient presence of mind left
to call for assistance to the officer, who
was still proceeding short distance in
advance. Hearing the cry the officer
hurried back, and arrested the man,
who gave his name as Silas Edgerton,
Yesterday morning, Edgerton was fined
80, ut the Police Court.

The Presidents UsurpatIOn.

No more fragrant act of usurpation could be COM
mitted than that of the President in forcibly dis
persing and dsbanding the negro volunteer compa-
mics Of the District Of Columbia. By the Amend
ment TO the Constitution and the laws passed in pur
suance thereof, and the decision of the Supreme
Court, the negro is a CITIZEN of the United States,
and it has always been conceded by men of all par
ties that the right Of citizens 10 bear did not
require the permission of Government. The col
ored citizen has as much right to bear arms as the
white citizen, and the loyal coored citizen a great
deal better right than the dsloyal white. Mr.
johnson had no right or authority TO issue this
der. 1t is in striking contrast with his encourage
ment of the Maryland rebel militia, which parade
tho streets of Baltimore commanded by ex-rebel
officers wearing the rebel uniform. Whatever
judgment Congress shall pronounce on this subject
will he enforced.
The President has issued this order from fear of
impeachment. This spectre hsunts him day and
night. He imagines that the colored volunteer
companies in Washington and the District are troops
designed to put down any resistance he may offer
to the Judgment Of Congress. The or der seems
confession Of the purpose to resist the Cnnstitu-
tional power of Congress 1t will not depend on
the negro volunteers, would the regular soldiers
OF the District be able to prevent even if johnson
could command them.

The Late Elections.

With the exception Of New York, there is nc
plausible pretext for the shouting of the copper
heads over the result of the late elections. On the
contrary there is Just ground for exultation by the
supporters of the Radical policy of reconstruction
We have carried Massachusetts, by more than fifty
thousand majority and though the majority is not
quite so large as it year ago it is solely be-
cause the Republican candidates were committed to
the temperance reform. We have triumphed in
Kansas by large majority, and in Michigan Sc
cured the ratifcationof the new Constitution, which
does away with all distinction of color in the exer
else of the elective franchise.
The copperheads carry one branch of the Legis-
lature in New jersey and the rebels hold Della
ware, as they did during the entire With all
colored men DISTINGUISHED and whites enfranchsed
in Maryland, they have carried that State Of course
because three-fourths of the white people of the
State have been rebels all the time Minnesota the
Republicans have carried by large majority
Georgia, Florida and Alabama have given large
maiorities for the Congressional policy of recon-
struction and may be counted as certainly for the
Republican candidate for the Presidency as Massa-
chusetts.
Such is a brief summary of the elections. 1t dis
appoints nobody, and leaves the great Radical par
ty certain of success in the Presidential election
hibitory liquor laws have been the sole cause of the
small gains made by the Democrats in some locai-
ties. These obstacles are now removed, and the
Republican party enters upon the struggle next
year more powerful than ever.
