supplying the wants of the public,
and In order to tBlreVeut unscrupu$
IOEs dealers from paInRfn@. Of FsRfe-
TtOr and worthless goods as the
Morton Gold Pens. I shall here
after sell no goods at wholesale
except only 10 duly appointed and
uthOriZed AgentSsS etc. To this
plan have since strictly adhered
In accepting Agents, great ,are has
been exercised to appoint those whos
by 1ong-continued fair dealing, have
acquired a reputation for honesty,
resp possibility, and probity-men in
whose word the public have learned to
place confidence. These Agents have
agreed to keep a full assortment Of my
pens, and to sell them at my published
prices Thus the public are supplied
by them with just such pens as they
want, either as to writing or price, and
get a full equivalent for the money
paid
No agent is appointed to travel from
place to place, or canvass the country
20 that all who want a Morton Gold
Pen must get it from the Local Agent
or from headquarters.
None need apply for the Agency ex-
cept in conformity to the above, the
liberal discount "To Clubs" being
Guncient inducement to all others.

Mr.. Alfred Lee, a colorcd gentlemen

hundred thousand dollars to be divi-
ded among his relatives. The wealth
was the result Of honest trade in the

Of wealth on tho part Of a colorcd
man, considering that money is the
gauge of respectability by many who
deery the negro, the argumentagainst
their capabilities to transact business

n Loyal .4fgger.

Lewis Lindsey, a Virginia nigger,
formerly slave of John Minor Bolts.
and also leading Virginia Radical,
in a late speech before a niger audi
ence, defines his position plainly,
This fellow Lindsey was a leading
member OF the late. Virginia Constitu-
tional Convention, and is now stump
ing the state for the new Constitution.
He said:
81 am As good as any man. Don't tell me ain't
on an equality with anybody God made ! want
tho privilege Of goingto see any whitc man, Of
eating with him, Of sleeping with him--and, II
choose to, why shouldn't / marry his daughter
Before any OF my children should suffer for food,
the streets Of Richmond shall run knee deep in
blood. THANK God that the negroes have learn
ed to use guns, pistols, swords and ramrods."
This nigger is one of the "loyal mil
lions" that the Radical bummers so
often refer 10 in their speeches.
Lewis is kind Of birthstone orator,
and would make good associate for the
Radical leader ofthis county--Swoope
We would not be surprised if the "loy-
al" County Committee would employ
this celebrated Virginia loyalst to
stamp this county for Grant and hls
bummers this fall.

TIE ARA OF JuLY.-The glorious
Fourth of Jnly-so nearly exchanged
for bastiles and despotism by the
party at present in power-will re-
turn on next Saturday, arrayed in
all its glory. The great Democratic
party meets in New York on that day,
to nominate the next President Of the
United States; besides, it is reported
that President Johnson will issue a
general amnesty proclamation, and
thereby restore the Union so far as
possible until the old Union savers
get hold of it. We cannot rejoice on
the arrival of this day, until all men
are again made equal before the law,
until every vestage of despotism is re-
moved from our soil, and until the
natural architects OF Liberty again
control the country.

The Democracy Of this Congros-
sional district viii soon be called upon
to nominate a candidate for Congress
Mr. scofeld win be the opposition
candidate again and being vehe-
ment Advooaieof negro suffrage, while
a large number of the voters in the
district are opposed TO this heresy,
will, therefore, be defeated beyond a
doubt-should the Democrats present
tlrpeople with fit candidate, one
wfdS, when elected, will not misrepre-
sent his constituents by pandering to
the tastes Of degraded white men and
the negroes of other sections.
There are a number of gentlemen
in the district who would be orna-
ments to the State and who would
properly represent the people; but
chief among them We would suggest
Hon. VIM. p. Jenks, OF Jefferson
county, who, for two years past, has
so ably represented his constituents
in the State Legislature. Mr.. jerks
is an able advocate Of our principles,
and would make an efficient Congress
man. His reputation as an upright
legislator is unimpoached and unim-
peachable, and he possesses both the
energy and ability to make first
class Congressman. Ourpresent mem
Der has, for four years past, been the
representative of the negro bureau,
instead of the white people of this
district; hence the necessity of put
ting mar in the field who would
represent his constituents; and this,
we have no doubt, Mr.. jerks would
do. Whether he viii allow his name
to be used in this connection, we
know not but we deem it due to the
Democracy of the district to be cast
ing about for candidate, because our
nominee will be elected this fall.

political condition of Pennsylvania is
better than at any period since Lin

Of that. The political complexion OF

healthy than at the present. From

Lakes there come to us but cheerful
tidings IN regard to the condition of
the Democracy. IL is everywhere
wide awake and pressing earnestly
the completion Of its organization
and dicipline. Nothing has been left
undone to insure honorable success
and there is no more doubt that Penn

White determination.

The Radical leaders are determined
to ride the white laborers 10 death,
in order to give their "colored breth
ren" elbow room. The Rump last
week passed two important bills ;
one to make eight hours days la
Dor, and the other TO continue the
negro bureau for another year in the
Southern States.
This is double dose. Reducing
the hours Of labor, and at the same
time increasing the taxes, is certainly
an oppressive feature IN political
economy. This is not all. Through
the wasteiulness and prodigality Of
the party now in power, the money
ofthe country is ut discount of for
ty per cent. Iftheso wise statesmen
can, under these bankrupt symptoms,
seduce tho white laboring men and
farmers OF this country to continue
to follow them for the benefit of the
sons of Ham, we shall be very much
mist~i.~- 70 r---a@-:-e, al surreney
of the country worthless, increasing
taxation aud al the same time redu-
cling the hours of labor, is not the
highway to bankruptcy and negro
supremacy, our ideas Of thrift and
happiness must be learned over
again.

TO the House Of Representatives.:
In rctu rning TO the House of Rep.

a bill entitled "An act TO admit the

and Florida, TO representation in Con-

to state at length the reasons which

at this time TO reopen the discussion
upon tho grave constitutional ques-
tions involved in the act of March 2,
1867, aud the acts supplementary
thereto, in pursuance of which it il
claimed in the preamble of this bill
these States have framed and adopted
constitutions of State government,
nor will / repeat the objections con
tanned in my message of the 10th inst,
returning without my signature the
bill to admit TO representation the
State Of Arkansas, and which are
equally applicable to the pending meas
urc. Like that recently passed IN
reference to Arkansas, this bill super
sedes the plain and simple mode pre-
sented by the Constitution for the ad-
mission to seats in the respective
houses of Senators and Representa-
tives from the several States.
1t assumes authority over the States
OF the Union which has never been
delegated 10 Congress, or even war
ranted by previous constitutional To-
gislation upon the subject Of restora-
ton. 1t proposes conditions which
are in derogation of the equal rights
of the States, and is founded upon a
theory which is subversive Of the fun
damental principles ofthe government.
In the case of Alabama, it violates
the plighted faith of Congress by for

which was rejected by the people, ac-
cording to the express terms of an
act of Congress, requiring that ma

the Case OF T.irginia.

Virginia was in the Union. under
the Wheeling and Alexandria Consti-
tutions. during the whole of the war.
She had the full organization and ma
chinery of a State. She was represent.
ed IN both Houses OF Congress, and
recognized by every department OF
the Government as State in the
Union. West Virginia, which was
- -. 80 49,, - ---~ r,.-:--v.i -,
a State, Ly ~i-tuo Of her suvercig u
assent as State, under the Wheeling
Constitution. 1t follows either that
Virginia is now a State in tho Union
or West Virginia is not. Congress
has decided, by including Virginia in
the reconstruction acts, that she is
not State in the Union and Con
gress yet suffers the Senator'S and
Representatives from West Virginia
to keep their seats in both branches
Of that body
What a farce this whole thing is
Congress plays with States as child
plays with ratllcs. 1t may be that
the eyes Of the country will yet be
opened to the iniquity and fraud that
have been practiced in the case OF
Virginia. We were told that if we
would assent to the Alexandria Con
stitution, and recognize the govern
ment created by it, and officers clec-
ted under it, we should be recognized
as part and parcel Of the Union. We
did so and almost in the twinkling
Of an eye Congress blottcd the State
out of the Union in order to bring
her under the auspices Of the negroes.
This is good faith, and this is Radical
craftsmanship When they find that
they cannot cram negro supremacy
down our throats, they may fall back
upou the Alexandria government. 1t
should be borne in mind that the case
OF Virginia is peculiar and unlike that
Of any her sister States IN the South.
There has been an iniquity in her
case that has not been practiced in
any other Richmond Wig,

The Rump Congress has passed q

The Rump Congress has passed q
law reducing the whiskey tax from two
dollars to fifty cents. An exchange
says thus has been brought about
through the influence of Gen. Grant,
who has had it done so as to cheaper
the campaign, and secure the whiskey
ring. How the Good Templars and
other temperance organizations can
smoke this pipe, we can't see, unless
it is slimed over with loyalty, in or
