creating considerable comment in
Louisville. 1t says that "the Legisla-
ture, which meets on Monday, will
positively refuse to ratify the Fifteenth
Amendment, and that ANDREW

Postmaster General Creswell visited the
Stock Exchange this am, and In = brief
speech, spoke as follows:
- thank you, gentlemen, for your cor
dial reception; n feel happy TO see that
the conflict is over, and the bright aspect
which matters wear now. There is moth
ing which the Government can do for the
interests Of the merchants and banks that
will not be done"
There were some further settlements
among the gold bankers to-day.
There seems to be a hitch in some larger
houses.
There is agrowing opinion that the large
contracts will be chiefly closed on Monday
or Tuesday.
Il Is believed that the offer made by
Heath & Co., 10 settle their contracts at
is5, and pay the difference with checks
duly received on the Gold Exchange
Bank, will be very generally accepted.

\ REPORTER of the New York Sgl,
who has recently had an interview
with Judge Asa PACKER, the Demo-
cratic candidate for GOvernOro of Penn
~sylyania, has drawn from him the fol-
lowing unequivOcal expression of his
views as to the Fifteenth Amendment.
What a mOnstrous outrage to do that
by fraud and by force, through Legis-
latures and specious forms of legal Oh
servance, which the people alone are
competent to do. Judge JPAGKER
said:
The Republican party seem totreat that
as a settled question, so far a Pennsyl-
is concerned, refusing 10 LET it some
before the people for their determination.
/ have my own opinions as to the n
in which that amendment should have
been passed upon. 1 think any amend
ment like this, which virtually changes
the Constitution OF the State, should have.
been presented to the approval, rs pro-
vided i'll u organic law, and should have
from a convention called on the
application OF the Legislatures of two
thirds of the several States as provided in
the Federal Constitution. \ question OF
such vital Importance should be deter
mined by the people or by their repre-
sentatives elected for that purpose. The
question Of suffrage is one that the origin
al founders Of the General Government
wisely refrained from d~elegating TO il,
jealOusly retaining il within the control
Ofthe several soyereigalStates they repre-
scented. That control has never been del
egated the General Government; the as
sumption Oft blythe National Legisla-
ture Is an arbitrary exercise of power,
subversive of the whole principle upon
which the Government was founded; and
so fearful was the Republican pariy that
the people OF the Northern States, whose
loyalty had never been questioned, who
believed that they intended this gross in
novstion "a their rights, thatin their plat
form adopted by their National Conven-
ton at Chicago in 1858, they declared that
the question of suffrage in the Northern
States wssto be determined only by tine
people ofthe respective States. And Vet
they never have permitted the people Of
any State TO pass upon the question, ex-
cept in the South, where they have made
the adoption OF negro suffrage a condition
precedent to their representation in Con-
greSs.

IT Is already intimated from Wash.

. L.
IT is already intimated from WASH
ington and New York that an issue
win be made at the threshold with
Mr.. JOHNSON, if he should be elected
to the Senate. On his application for
his seat he is to be met with theciarge
of "disloyalty,n and it is expected
the allegation will be sufficiently sub
stantiatedsb by the evidence brought out
in the Impeachment trial. The men
who voted him guilty then, will refus
10 stulfify themselves by admitting
him to a seat. The Republican press
contemplate his election with no signs
of concern in view of this programme.
Giving 500 to his Confederate son, to
buy food and medicine in his sick
ness during the war, was the crime.
whiek kept Mr.. Thomas, ofAfaryland,
out of the Senate. The crime Of
which JOHNSON was accusedis reason
enough for the radical Senate, If that
charged against THOMAS was 50. So
that it is likely enough he will be re-
jected. We see it stated by the New
York Republic that ''SToKEs, BRowN-
LOW, MAYNARD, and even ETHER
IDGE, declare that the Senate will re-
fuse to admit JOHNSON" We hope
Mr.. ETHERIDGE has not gone 80 far
as to encourage such a refusal, even
by intimating its possibility. We look
for no good from the Senate, as at
present constituted; but we hope the
Legislature viii act u~niniuenced
by 3 such considerations, and
assert the rights Of the State.
II JOHNSON is the choice of the
people, we would send him TO the
Senate TO make respectful inquiry of
thatebody whether the State has a
right to choose It's own Senators. And
if ne is sent back, we wOuldosend him
yet again demshdingto know whether
the refusal was intended. And so
long as that right was reused we
should beg no other. The Bept6iie

THANKSGIVING
ROCLAMATION.

As day Of PUBLIC THANKSGIVING AND
PRAISE.
Looking back upon the events Of the year. We
cannot fail to he reminded Of the Supreme Ruler
great mercies as well as Of the inscrutableness Of
His ways; and whilst we, in duty bound,
should be thankful for the open-handedness Of a
bountiful and never failing Providence, let us
humbly acknowledge that there has been given to
US, by the death Of two Of our State officers. a
cause Of great and expressing grief.
How can this Proclamation, asking the people
TO give thanks for the blessings which they have
received, be uttered, unless at the came time, We
attest our gratitude to God for His having seen
fit TO spare from the scythe Of His dread
servant
The harvests which we seek from the seed and
the rock have been good. Tie deserts and the
have yielded as bountifully as We co1ld rea-
sonably expect.
Our mineral resources have continued to sustain
their high character; and the tolls Of the hus-
banimsn have been requited.
Whilst the earthquake and the flood and the
tempest have been visited upon our neighbors in
other States and upon the people of adjacent
countries, we have been graciously shielded from
such grave misfortunes.
1t should excite the mutual gratulations OF us
all that the blessings which have befallen the
nation, and which are so gracefully recited by
President Grant, have come upon our country and
its institutions.
These then, are profound reasons for thankful.
ness and the earnest acknowledgement Of the
presence of Almighty God and they lend us
irrepressible incentives for heartily acceding to
the sentiments set forth in the Presidents Procla-
nation. And, actuated by these good reasons,
do enoin it upon all citizens to attest their sense
of dependence upon the great Creator by giving
on the day above designated, in the churches and
at the fireside an earnest showing of their faith
and of their sincerity in such professions as be-
come a collective part Of civilization and a
people whose mission it is to the highest
and best interests of humanity.
