CINC1NEArI, July 2l.-Ihree men,
Phil. Clifton, Charles Roseberry and
Val. Elliott, who were arrested for the
attempted robbery of the Adams Ex-
press car at Brownstown; Indiana, on
the night of the 10th inst, left here last
night under a strong guard. to be
placed In the Browntown jail. When
The train reached q point two miles
west of Seymour, it was stopped by q
mob of about 200 men from Seymour
and vicinity. The guard was over
powered and the three prisoners taken
out and hung.
The lynching OF the Adams Express
robosrs near Seymour, last night was
a premeditated affair, and was occa-
stoned by the determination OF the ctt1-
zens of Jackson and adjoining counties,
TO rid themselves of as desperate q
gang of robbers and murderers as has
ever been known.
A family named Reno, living at
Rockford, two miles from Seymour,
are the leaders of this gang, whose OPP
erations have extended all over Inc
west, The Adams Express Company
has been repeatedly robbed by these
men, who get on board the trains and
overpoweT the messenger, or By taxing
possession of the engine and express
car and running them OF from the train,
and then leaving them after robbing
the safes. A robbery of this kind oc-
Cured lately on the Hamilton and Day
ton Railroad, near this city, whereby
the American Express Company was
robbed of large amount, the Reno
family being the leaders or insti-
gators in the affair. They are also
;he party who led the raid in
Iowa last spring when so many OF the
county safes were robbed. On the 22d
of Nav last, the Adams Express Com
rahhad Gi0hta9H miles
from Seymour of $4,000 in which
the Reno's and their friends were the
principal actors, some of whom are
now in Canada TO avoid capture, and
others are under arrest. On the 10Th
inst. the Adams express was again at
tempted TO be robbed about II miles
west OF seymour, but the armed guards
of the company repulsed the robbers,
captured ono and wounded some OF tne
others, two of whom have been captur-
tured, and for the remainder "A large
reward has been offered.
Val. Elliott was one of this gang and
was captured on the night of the at
tempted robbery, Charles Roseberry,
a residentn nf Seymour, and pupil OF
the Reno's. was afterwards arrested by
the citizens OF Seymour. Fred Clifton
was also arrested. They all admitted
their connection with the affair. For
safe Keeping they were taken to Cincin-
na.f, when warrants were procured and
they were put on the train of the O. ID NJ.
Railroad last night bound for Browns.

ty. The train was stopped two miles
west of Seymour and the men taken
out and hung, as already stated. Their
bodies were found at an early hour this
morning hanging to the limbs of trees
in the vicinity.
The particulars of the outrage have
not yet been received, and it is mol
known who were the leaders of The
mob.

NEW YORK, July 2I.-The late rob-

mysterious affair. The money was se-
cured in burglar proof safe, locked
with combination lock which reQuir
ed five persons, each knowing only a
part of its secret operations, to open It..
Yet over $50, 600 in gold was taken
from 1t. The lock apparently was not
tampered with.
The coroner's investigation in the re-
cent drowning disaster, in North river,
by which officer Corbett and a girl

rouudsman on being examined testi-

the boat policeman was overheard he
replied in abusive terms, and said "Iet
him drown" The Investigation Will
be continued.

Zero correspondence of June 18th

of all pensions or honors conferred by

that no State, portion Of whose In
habitants were engaged in the rebel
lion, shall be permitted to participate
In the Presidential election, except
upon the terms and conditions pre-
scribed. Assuming this to be the
true const ruction of the resolution, the
inquiry becomes pertinent, may those
northern States. q portion of whose In
habitants were actually in the rebel
lion, be prevented, at the discretion OF
Congress, from having their electoral
vote counted? ? It Is well known that
portion of the inhabitants OF New
YORK and Virginia were alike engaged
in the rebellion, and it is equally well
known that Virginia as we'll as New
York, was at all times during the war
recognized by the Federal Government
as q State in the Unions SO clearly. thet
upon the termination of hosttltties II
was not even deemed necessary for her
restoration that provisional Governor
should be appointed Yet, according
to this joint resolution, the people OF
Virginia, unless they comply with the
terms it prescribes, are denied the right
of voting for President and Vice PreSi-
dent, while the people of New York
portion of the Inhabitants .ot which
State were also in rebellions are per
mitted 10 have their electoral vote
counted without undergoing the
process of reconstruction prescribed
for Virginia. New YORK Is no
more a State than Virginia. The one
is as much entitled to be represented
in the Electoral College as the other
If Congress has the power TO deprive
Virginia of this right II can exercise the
same authority with respect 70 New
York or any of the States. Thus the
result of the Presidential election may
be controlled and determined by Con-
eress-the people be deprived CT their
rights under the Constitution TO choose
President and Vice President OF the
United States. II Congress were TO
provide by law that the votes OF nons
Of the States should be received and
counted, if cast for a candidate who
differed in political sentiment with
msiorfty of the two Houses, such legis-
lation would at once be condemned by
the country as Unconstitutional and
revolutionary usurpations Of power.
1t would, however, be exceedingly
difficult to find in the Constitution any
more authority for the joint resolution
under the Constitution than for an en-
actment directing the rejection all
votes not In accordance with the PoIIt!-
cal preference of majority OF Con
cyress, No power exists In the Consti-
tuition authorizing the joint resolution
or the proposed law, the only differences
being that one would be more PAlPaoIS
unconstitutional and revolutionary
than the other. One would rest upon
the radical error, that Congress has
power to prescribe terms and conditions
10 the right of the people OF the States
to cast their votes for President and
Vice President.
For the reasons thus indicated am
constrained to return the joint resolu-
ton to the Senate for such further ac-
ton thereon as Congress may deem
necessary. ANDREW JOHNSON,
