Ben BUTLER OVERHEARD. The
Eastern Argus tells the following
good story of Ben Butler: 1.-The
doughty hero of Big Bethel, Fort
Fisher, etc., met with a mishap in
Newburyport the other day, which
nearly deprived the. country OF his
services.
Butler and Colonel French We're
pacing the quarter deck In a style
worthy Of Admiral Jim Fisk. The
Yacht rounded to, and off went a
gun that made the Newburyporters
think of powder ships. The yawl
was brought alongside and Butler
and French seem to have attempted
to get in together. Now it is a well
established fact that two locomotives
with steam up cannot pass each
other on the same track Butler
and French could not. nor could
they both go down the steps at the
same moment without damage to
their political economy. French
pitched forward and landed half in
the water and half in the little beat.
Butler was less fortunate. He DIS
appeared. and the murky waters OF
the Merrimac closed ove his bald
and busy head. But not forever.
Ben appeared on the surface directly,
with a spout that is represented as a
cross between that of a porpoise and
a hump-backed whale. He thrashed
about until the water frothed like
Yeast. His jolly tars made heroic
efforts to rescue him, but Ben's bald
pate left them little to clutch at, and
it was not until the honorable gen
tIemaa from Massachusetts had gone
down for the conventional third
time that he was dragged ont, half
drowned. the most dilapidated, Woe
begone looking statesman and war
rior that ever tumbled into the
drink. He did not go ashore that
night. and is understood to have
taken on board more water than the
average Congressman requires for a
whole session.

THE Wilmington Journal, of North
Carolina, says of the libels on that
State:
We believe that even in Congress,
the Governor will be thwarted in his
new schemes of wickedness against the
people of his native State. The North
begins to grow tired of these incessant
applications upon the part of the "truly
loyal" for additional legislation in their
behalf. These people have accomplish
ed all the good for the party that they
are capable of, and now their continued
appeals for assistance can be needed
only by sacrifices at home, which must
certainly prove fatal to continued su-
premacy at the North. AS this fact be.
gins to be recognized we expect that
Southern loyalists, like ordinary NOR
tails must look for aid to the laws of the
country, and for political preference to
the ballot-box. The waning power of
the Radical party in Congress cannot
much longer be wasted in efforts TO Sc
cure the Southern States to their ban
ners, but their eXigencies at home-the
tariff, income.taX, Presidential success
sion-nay, the safety of the party itself,
will now claim their most jealous atten-
tion. Whatever may be the result of
the trial which the people of North
Carolina have instituted against Gov
ernor Holden, we do not believe he
will be successful in his indictment
which he has preferred against the peo-
pie of the State. He has jealous at
torney in his son, and many willing
witnesses of desperate character. a
partial court sits in judgement, but be-
hind them are the people of the United
States, to whom there is final appeal.

Another Democratic Victory.

A special telegram in our columns
this morning announces the election OF
WILLIAM l.. SCOTT, esq, democrat,
for mayor of the city of Erie, over Or
ANGE NOBLE, esq. the present republi-
can incumbent Erie has hitherto Civ.
en- decisive radical najorities. Mr..
NOBLE has held the Office OF mayor for
three consecutive terms, aud is person
ally very popular. This result is aroth-
er sign of the approaching political
revolution. The great tidal wave which
overran New Hampshire last week has
reached our city on the Lakes, and will
roll on until radicalism shall be en-
gulphed in every State of the Union,
and the principles of true liberty once
more regain their ascendancy in the
land.

BayOnet Election Law.

Under the bayonet election law, with
its extravagant and brutal penalties,
all cities in the United States contain
ing over 10000 population may be con-
verted by the edict of the President
into military posts on election day.
There are seventy of these cities in the
Union, but if the law is only appliedto
those in the great Central States, it will
be amply sufficient to determine the re-
suit of the Presidential election in ad-
vance. The law was invented to over
ride the majority of the American
people and maintain in power the pres
ent Administration. 1t remains to be
seen how it will be operated, and under
what pretenses Grants bayonets will
throw out enough of votes to re-elect
himself. 1t will then be time for the
people to act but in the interval they
should be made thoroughly conversant
with the law, and their determination
unalterably fixed, that if the Demo-
Gratis, by fair and honest vote, elect
the next President, he must and shall
be inaugurated at all hazards. 1t is
possibly for Grants bayonets to deter
mine the electoral vote of a State, and
possibly the result in the electoral col
lege, by dra agging from their duties the
election officers of single precinct in
some one of the seventy military posts
in the country, into which our leading
cities are converted by the law just
passed. To suppose the American peo-
pie will submit to the decision of a
Presidential contest by such villainy is
to deny them honesty, courage and
fidelity to principle. We believe this
election law contains the germs of civil
war. 1t was passed to overthrow the
will of the people; and to suppose that
this can be done by the hatred means o.
Federal bayonets, welded by candi
date or party in his or their interes
without the people exhausting every
remedy, even to the last, is the heigh
of confiding absurdity.
The more often the citizen will recu
to the details of this most infamous
, law, the more intense will become hi
opposition to it. The deputy marshal
/ who precede the Federal troops in it
5 enforcement, may be selected from tn
! very lowest and most degraded scum O
: the populace. This was the case il
r New York last fall, when, many of tn
t marshals were keepers of the loves
1 bagnios and groggeries, penitentiar,
Q convicts and jail-birds. Yet these fel
}, lows are invested with power to breal
i up elections by arresting election off
s GERS and voters without warrant. Fur
= ther than that they are empowered [

Let Cessna be Removed,

The Chambersburg Vaiey Spirit very
properly suggests that the Trustees OF
Franklin and Marshall College can not
afford to continue John Cessna as Pres
ident of the Board of Trustees. The
editor of the Spirit is a graduate of the
institution, and is naturally sensitive
when the honor of his alma Mater is
likely to suffer. He says:
"John Cessna is the President of the
Board of Trustees of Franklin and
Marshall College. He was elevated to
that position by a scurvy trick on the
resignation of Mr.. Buchanan. BY his
course in Congress, and especially by
his shameful connection with the Chor
penning claim, he has brought himself
into great discredit in the State and
nation. The friends of the Institution
of both political parties, feel that The
President of the Board of Trustee:
should be q man of highest character
above reproach from any quarter. II
a short time, the Board will meet, and
its first action should be to request it:
President to tender his resignation
Thd College cannot afford to continue
him any longer in this position"
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1871-03-24

IT is now said that Governor Alcorn
declined the Senatorship from Mississ-
ippi, in order to block a most infamous
fraud upon the people of that State,
concocted by the Radical party. The
Legislature was to perpetuate its power
for session of two years, during which
term no elections were to take place.
In that case the Lieutenant Governor,
who would be acting Governor in case
Alcorn resigned and went to the Sen
ate, was to refuse to order an election
as consequence. The Governor has
refused to become party to such an
outrage, and has notified the Legisla
ture that whether it makes the proper
provision for holding an election or moi
he shall order one to be held as required
by the State Constitution. AS the
members of Congress from that State
who Were chosen to the Forty-first Con
gress, were suffered TO take their seat
In the Forty-second without re.elec
ton, the rumor in relation to Governo
Alcorn is doubtless founded upon facts
The Radicals mean to repudiate tn
voice of the people whenever such
consumation can be accomplished. The,
are In favor of substituting fraud an,
} the bayonet for fair election.
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1871-03-24


SO far indications at Harrisburg justi'
fy the suspicion that the Radicals intend
to defeat the call for a convention. Their
plan seems to be to insist upon bill
framed by themselves and entirely in
their interest, knowing that such q bill
will las 1t ought toy be rejected by the
Senate. BY this plan they hope to
to reach the end of the session and adj
journ without making the call. This is
based upon the hope of getting control
of the Senate next fall, and then they
would have things all their own way.
Under such condition, of course they
desire no such restraints as q revised
Constitution would certainly impose I;
they want to go on in the "same old
way" and continue to take all the ad.
vantages of special legislation, which a
long experience has demonstrated, how
ever injdrious to the people at large, to
be highly profitable to the representa-
tives of the party in power.
Again, they hope in this way to force
upon the Democrats the odium of de.
feating the measure, and then make
the welkin ring next fall with peal af
ter peal from the stump about their own
honesty and dishonesty of others. Thi:
game is SO evident that no Democrat
will be deceived by it, and it is to bt
hoped that members of their own par
ty will not be gulled by it to any con
siderable extent. The convention
ought to be called upon fair basis, ,ant
any bill manifestly in the interest o
one party and against the other, covers
a contemplated fraud in one shape Oh
another Citation Democrat.

THE Philadelphia Post declares that
the disgraceful fight between BUTLER
and BLAINE is full of danger to the Re.
publican party. 1t comments upon the
matter thus:
"The danger of the recent troubles in
the Republican party is that the most
popular and influential men ia the
country are at war with each other, and
differ in respect to our political policy.
1t is useless to say that General BUTLER
drops into insignificance when he op.
poses Speaker BLAINE, or that his pow
er would be destroyed even if he should
oppose the party itself. Such men
yield great influence, and it is the worst
element of our present political situa-
tion that the leading minds of the nation
are not in harmony with the policy OF
the Administration"
