There will soon be important elections in New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Con necucut, while later in the year Maine, Ohio, Iowa, Minesota, Wis consin, Massachusetts, ' Virginia, Mississippi and Texas each elect Governor and State Legislature- In Illinois, Indiana and some other States there will be elections for county officers, while general elec tions will be held for members of the Legislature in the States of Xew York, New Jersey, Pennsylva nia, Maryland, Kentucky, Kansas and California. REPUBLICAN CELEBRATION AT SARAGOSSA. AGOSSA. I i The Republicans had a grand cel ebration at Saragossa on the 15th instant, the city having been practi cally' delivered into the hands of the people. The Monarchical mem bers of the city government resign ed, and their places were filled by Republicans, who were immediately installed. AU. political prisoners were released, and the officers of the artillery resigned and surrendered their batteries to the Sergeants. A red flag was displayed from the Gov ernor's residence and other places. In the evening all the public build ings were illuminated. SENATOR CALDWELL. Senator Cald well proposes to stick to his seat and face the music. Even Senator Morton, author of the re so lution declaring his seat vacant, is now of the opinion that it cannot pass. There are many Republicans who ' think that it has not been shown thatjthe Kansas Legislature was bribed sufficiently to vitiate its election of Caldwell, and the Demo cratic Senators will oppose the Mor ton resolution on the ground of State Rights which they think would be invaded if the United States Sen ate were to go behind the certificate of a State Legislature. Between these two opinions, Mr. Caldwell's , chances are unexpectedly favorable. BECOME A JAP. It is not pleasant to record the ' fact that an American in Japan has renounced his nationality as a citi zen of the United States, -but it is comforting to know that his name is Smith. As Smith, the circum stance becomes in a measure casual and less specific. Smith, with the Christian ( ?) name Feshine behind it, is no adviser on international law to the Japanese goyernment,and he has doubtless discovered that to be entirely conscientious in the dis charge uf his functions he must re pudiate his country and the loyal Smith family of America and be come a Jap. CAMPAIGN IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. The campaign in New Hampshire notwithstanding that they are with in two or three weeks of the election, is reported to be very dulL The Democratic candidate for Govenor, Weston, was elected in 1871 by a majority of 80S; but the next year the Republicans elected Straw, the present incumbent and nominee, by a majority of 2,167, and in Novem ber last President Grant carried the State by a majority of 5,745. The Democrats and Liberals will ac together in some of the Congress ional Districts, but it does not ap pear that they have agreed to do so .on the State ticket. They seem, - Tipon the whols.to have reached the ' conclusion that there is no use in trying for success, and to have wearily withdrawn from political discussion. Quiet as the campaigng is, all the indications presage anoth Republican victory. BILL FOR A NEW ELECTION IN LOUISIANA. , . , The bill reported by Mr. Carpen ter from the special Committee on Louisiana affairs declares the elec tion in that State held on the 4th of November last to be null and void, and reinstates in office the State of fieer and Legislature who held posi tions as that time. It farther re quires a new election to be held for State officer and members of the Legislature on the second Tuesday of next May, and directs Win. B. Woods, United States Circuit Court - tor Louisiana, to proceed to Louis iana and appoint two citizens of dif ferent politics to be State Registers who shall cause a new registration to be made of all legally qualified voters or tue state, commencing March 18, and ending ten days prior to the date of the election. The State registers are to appoint two supervisors of Registration for each parish, except Jefferson and Orleans for which a greater number are to be oppointed, and in each parish the registers are to be divided in politics, The President is empowered to em ploy the military forces, on the ap plication of the Governor of the State or the Uuited States Circuit Judge, to carry out the provisions of this act and enforce judicial pro cess, and 1200,000 are appropriated to defray the expenses of the regis "tration and election. IN EARNEST. Congress ip gradually finding out that the President is in earnest about civil service reform. The opinion of certain Congressmen that postmasters who have been in office for a term of years ought to be ro tated out, has again been put for ward.but finds no favor at the White House. The President thinks that good conduct and efficiency in pub lic officers are more important than rotations. In this opinion he is sustained by the best sentiment of the country. THE LOUISIANA MUDDLE. The Louisiana Committee don't know what to do with that much muddled State. The majority are prepared to report in favor of a new election; while the minority is spfit in two opposite opinions, one sus taning McEnery for Governor and McMillan for Senator, and the other Kellog for governor and Ray for Senator. From the facts elicited in the investigation we don't think anybody was "duly elected" Louisiana last fall, and that conse quently Congress ought to throw their stuffed ballot boxes and fraud ulent registration and polling lists overboard altogether, and order a new deal. We doubt whether this would turn out any better, for we have yet seen no sign of penitence or honesty among Louisiana politi cians, carpet-baggers, copperheads, rebels or negroea. But perhaps the rascals will get tired of cheating and lying by-and-by if they have to do it over again every time till they get honest! Spain has behaved it self better for the ten days it has been a Republic, than Louisiana af ter an experience of three quarters of century. FEMALE INFLUENCE. From the time the devil in the Garden of Eden showed his appre ciation of female influence, in reach ing Adam through the fascinations of Eve, woman has been the great mediator or to use a word not in its offensive sense, has been the go- between. In all governments, from family government up to matters oi State, woman has been the pacifica tor between contending factions. And now in the miserable Modoc war out in California, the same thing is seen. In' all the negotia tions for a "talk" between the Ind ians entrenched in the lava beds and the whites, two squaws have been employed as bearers of the nego tiations. Their names are not very euphonious Artinine Chokus and One-eyed Dixie but they are of the gentler sex, and show with savages as with pale-faces that woman is the power swaying all men who seek peace and would pursue it. WOMAN SUFFRAGE. There is a proposition before the Constitutional Convention of Penn sylvania, to submit the question of woman suffrage to the qualified elec tors of the State, and to all its wo men inhabitants of the age of twenty-one years and upwards. The first point, it seems to us, is to as certain if women themselves really desire to assume political rights and responsibilities. If they do not, that should end disscussion on the subject. If they do, it will then be in order for men to say whether they will set themselves in opposi tion to the demand. The question should be squarely presented, first to a vote of women of lawful age, without any intermixing of the mas culine element. It would be absurd for men to force thelsnffrage upon women by their votes; and there are not a few who believe it would be no less an outrage for men to re fuse it, if the other sex are united in demanding the concession. ABSURD. The proposition of Governor Wal ker, of Virginia, that the general government shall assume the pay ment of all the present debts of the States, the latter binding themselves to abstain from the contraction of any debts in future, except such as necessary to the legitimate and ef fective execution of their govern mental functions, or as may be re quired by sudden and great emer gencies is perhaps the most magni ficent absurdity of which the im practicables have as yet been deliv ered. It really fatigues astonish ment to think of. In what sublime sally of silliness these crotchety theorists will next indulge, it would puzzle imagination itself to tell, But the suggestion is incomplete. The total abolition of the autono my of the States themselves, and the absorption of their powers and functions . by the general govern ment, ought certainly to have been included. When this ommission is supplied possibly the country may in time consider the matter. RE-UNION OF MEXICAN SOLDIERS. - The Philadelphia Inquirer says Some of the survivors of the Mexi can war, at a meeting recently held at Pittsburg, have resolved to mem orialize Congress in favor of grant ing them pensions. They suggest as an economical point that a large number of their comrades are dead, and that Congress, therefore, will not be asked - for anything upon their account. They say that'many of the survivors are now poor, and that a pension would be a great as sistance to some of them, and they claim, that the acquisition of Cali fornia and New Mexico by their achievements, although Congress paid Mexico for that territory, en titled them to consideration. We have no desire to place anything in the way of these soldiers, but it is right to suggest that the pension system of the United States, except in the case of Revolutionary veter ans, has been confined to cases of wounded, maimed and disabled sol diers, and to the widows and fami lies of those killed in action. Boun ties have been given to soldiers: in the great majority of cases, of wars in which the country has been en gaged since our independence of Great Britain was declared: But where soldiers have gone through military service unhurt to the em ployments of civil life, it has not been held that they had claims which entitled them to be partially supported by the nation. Chief Justice Chase is fitting nn for a permanent resident a countrv seat which he has purchased- near Washington, ft COAL IN ENGLAND. The latest advices from Englan state that the people are terribly alarmed with regard to the threaten ed coal famine. Coal which a year ago was selling at twenty-eight shill ings a ton has since advanced fifty shillings, and worst of the mat ter is that no one can tell where the rise in the prices will stop. There is no accumulated stock of coal any amount anywhere above around in England. The poor, who buy,not in tons.but in half hundred weights and smaller quantities,suffer teribly. Of coal actually known exist in Great Britain there is not more than 90,000,000,000 of tons, or thereabouts; and while the annual consumption is 110,000,000 or 115, 000,000 tons, the cost of working coal is continually increasing,partly in consequence of physical reasons, and partly in consequence of moral causes. On the one hand the seams to be worked at a greater depth and less accessible than formerly, and on the other hand the hewers coal demand higher wages, and do all they can to limit the out-put of coal. Perhaps, to some extent the coal owners are also anxious to lira it production. Absolute exhaustion is doubtless a long way off, and be fore that comes to pass some sub stitute will in all probability have been invented. Still it is plain that the coal question is becoming very serious one, and that the per manent value of the article is bound to be greatly increased as compared with a few years ago. But Eng land's extremity in this matter is our opportunity, and this will doubt less be promptly seized and profit ably employed. THE SENATE COMMITTEE. The report of the Senate Credit Mobilier Committee does not in volve any of the Senators,and closes with a bill directing the Attorney General to proceed in law against persons who have received dividends or money from the Union Pacific Railroad, except on stock or bonds bought and actually paid for. It al so limits the company from any fur ther issue of stock, and requires to use its income to provided for its indebtedness. This is really a more practical report than that of the Po land Committee, and if it shall be adopied.will be fir toward compell ing the railroad corporation to make good the deficiencies which have grown out of past bad management. The evidence developed before the two committees illustrate the impor tance of Congress holding tight rein over the Pacific Railroad. This done and beyond all doubt it will ultimately work safely out of its dif ficulties. FIRE IN ASHLAND. A fire broke out in the McNulty House Thursday. Owing to the prompt action and efficient work done by Fire Company No. 2, with their steamer, the fire was got un der control and confined to the up per story of the building, where the fire originated,and which was entire ly destroyed. The building is great lv damaged by water. Loss four to five thousand dollars; fully insured the following companies; Im perial, of London $3,000; Under writers', New York, Columbiana, Ohio. Mutual, $8,660, Knox, Ohio, Mutual.$1.500. The cause of the fire was a defective flue. THE SPANISH REPUBLIC. The ideas of liberty given rise to under the new Republican rule Spain, are, as yet, somewhat eccen trie. Thus the cable mentions the arrest of a corporal of the army for declining to cheer for the Republic, on the ground that in refraining from shouting he tended to create a mutiny. If the Spanish Repubh cans proceeded in all cases, after this style, their government woul soon be more tyrannical than any in Europe. Deliberation, however, will remedy such excess. THE UTAH BILL. The Utah bill has undergone im portant modifications in the handB of the Judiciary Committee, partic ularly in its provisions affecting polygamous unions already formed It is now thought that Congress will do nothing to interfere with the relations of families so consti tuted, as it would work undue inju ry and hardship to innocent parties, the wives and children of -plural marriages. But the law will peremp torily forbid the formation of such unions in future, and provide penal ties, and the means for executing the law, which will make it effec tive. . "" EXTRA SESSION. extra which it is announced that the Pres ident will convene immeadiately at the close of the present Congress will be occupied almost exclusively with confirming the President's nominations. No legislation can be had, since the House will nat be in session, nothing but executive busi ness can be attended to. One of Stokes' lawyers has been off and found a woman who will tes tify that she picked up a pistol wnicu isk nan dropped, and there is no doubt a hundred more could De tound in .New York to testify to that or any thing else. Texas papers say that more cat tle have perished in that State this winter by cold and starvation than in any former equal duration of cold weather. A number of the high-toned Rit ualistic women in London have con cluded that it is all wrong to have churches cared for and cleaned bv hirelings, so they have formed them selves into a society of "Phosbes," and do the sweeping, dusting, and scrubbing with their own delicate hands. The Supreme Court of Illinois has decided in a test case, that has no right to sell its own property for taxes. FROM WOOSTER. WOOSTER, O., Feb. 24, '73. Eds. Republican: There is little of importance transpiring in this vicinity iust at this time. We have what is termed pretty severe weath er, but about a week ago there seem ed to be a little spring at hand. The 22d of February has been the principal topic here for some time, which was celebrated here on the night of the 21st, and which proved a grand success, the wigwam bein; completely packed, their bein many present from a distance. Let ters were read from Genr Logan, II. Uibson, Monroe and senator How ley. Fred. Douglass, on account of irregularity of trains, failed to get here. Speeches were made by Al phonso Hart, A. S. McClure, W. A, West, and others. The tables were magnificently arranged with abund ance of everything, for which the ladies deserve the greatest praise. In short it was a grand gala occa sion, completely extinguishing the last grease spot of the Democratic sth of January festival last. Judge Welker was badly hurt last week by the falling of a large bulle tin board, though it is thought was not seriously hurt. Several very sudden deaths have occurred here lately. More again. KU KLUX. FROM FREDERICKSBURG. FREDERICKSBURG, O., Feb. 22, '73. k.DS. Republics : lue opinion appears to be growing universal among the citizens, and especially among the senior residents of this vicinity, that we are having one of the severest winters experienced for a number of years. Some of the people in this village claim that their thermometers indicated dur ing the recent cold spell 30 degrees below zero. We think it was as cold out in the country as in town. and during the severe period the mercury was down to 27 and 28 de grees, lhe horse disease having subsided is now making a general appearance among the people. The Fredericksburg band gave grand musical entertainment on last Thursday evening. The exer cises consisted orDuetts, solos, Comic recitations, 'Dramatic per formances, etc Miss Critch field of Mt Vernon, presided at the or gan. An oration was delivered by Mr. Wm. Redett, subject, "Music," which was very appropriate and did honor to the occasion. The band which was only organized some two or three weeks ago, and consequent ly bad a very short time to practice, did remarkably well, and their first entertainment being a success will go far toward establishing their reputation as first-class musicians. OCCASIONALLY. THE ASSEMBLY. On Saturday the Senate adjourned in honor of Washington's Birthday. The House met at 10 o'clock and transacted some miscellaneous busi ness. Several attempts were made to adjourn the House, but failed. Mr. Cooper of Knox, the wit of the House, took the floor and said "Mr. Speaker: This is a glorious day. This is George Washington's birthday. He was the Father of our country." (The Speaker here call ed the gentleman to order, and said he could not proceed.) "Hear, hear" went up from the seats of the House, and Mr. Cooper .continued " Yes, Mr. Speaker, it is also the birthday of the gentleman from Cuy- hoga, Mr. Curtis, he of the flaming mane. (Laughter.) Also of the member from Fayette, Mr. Williams (Laughter.) I would therefore move that Washington's farewell address, and the life of Mr. Curtis: as printed in the Book of Martyrs last session, be read (laughter), and the House adjourn." The House was unable to resist the eloquence of Mr. Cooper, and it adjourn. HUMOROUS TRANSACTION. JNrot long since, a farmer, living not a thousand miles from Kittan - ning, was waited upon by an Oil speculator for the purpose of leas ing a portion of the farmer s land for oil purposes. After consider ble talk about the prospect of get ting oil and other matters, the farm er agreed to lease a portion of his larm, and the question of royalty came up. lie was asked how much royalty he wanted. He replied that he ought to have the one eighth of all the oil. Our speculator propos ed to do better than that, he would gyve him the thirty second portion- of the oil. This seemed vorir rron ef-ous to the farmer, and he immedi- afmiy had the lease drawn up, stipu fung mat he was to get the thirty - second part of all the oil produced rroia lease. A few days after the 'ffve transaction, the farmer came town and happened to meet a gnd wno had heard that he had wed his farm, and he inauired hat royalty he had got. The far- er replied that he had done better an he had asked, that he had got e tnirty-second, when he only waniea tne eighth. His friend said OTnm you were foolish, if you had eome to me, I would have given you mejijtieti. Of course Mr. Earmer was sorry that he had not met his friend before he had leased.
