The ClnelnaeU Commercial says that It N n notorious fact that Camkhon, the Honorable 9lMO!1 Cameron, bought up the pennsjlvnnla Legislature to socure hts election to the United States Senato, It Is such kind of party Jugglery, no doubt, that constrained Tmi> STKvnss to fliake the prediction that the nulloalo would looo Tennsylranlaand New Voik In the elections next fall. What hope Is there for the preservation cf civil liberty, of self government, when the votes of leglsUt >rs are marketable commodities? It was charged, with a show of evidence that has not been deputed, or even questioned, that It required money to procure the passage of bills through the New York Legislature, at Its last session, which alftoted Individual Interests. And similar charges have been laid, uncentradluted, al the doors of Congress. Tt n 111 he recollected that after his cli ih-n to the United States Senate by tho 1\ nn>) Ivanlu legislature, Mr. CaMnnox allectc.l a good dual of Indignation as to tho Intimation tint he had purchased a scat In tho Senato and stated that he regarded the free and Unbiased selection of himself for the eminent position as an endorsement of hi* oUlcial career, especially as a member of the cabinet of Mr. Lincoln. But It ftp pears that Tiiad.Stkvkns, his competitor for the position, has a different Idea of the Immaculacy of Mr. Camekon nnd the members, of the Pennsylvania legislature who voted for him. Ills view of tho matter was drawn from him under the following circumstances. Tho friends of one of the Ucpubllcan members alleged that his vote for Mr. Cameron was cast under Instructions from Mr. Stevens. A note was nddre*-^’ *•' Mr. Stkvjcns to nscere-- of th, • nm-gution «uicn he rolurnod tho lollowing

I gave no such directions, ns I had no right or did not claim the right to control any vote outside of Lancaster county, i knew cf tho Instructions l iven to Mr. Barton by his constituents; I l.ni'W, also, that In that district Mr. Cameron bad but few Irlonds at the time oi the election. A vote showed that the choice was between t’urtln and myself In Chester nnd Delaware. Before I wont to Harrisburg, a day or two before the election for Senator, I heard doubts of Mr. Barton, ills Congressional Representative ssaured me that ho had a recent letter,-and Mint there could be no doubt of his fidelity. When 1 reached Harrisburg, where I was reluctantly persuaded to go—(very foolishly,) I found Mr. Barton was convinced that thegood of the State required General Cameron’s election, and never doubted of his treachery. Indeed, whatever might bo tho reason, I fonnd st of the nnll-Cameron men either openly or

EUdtiDoa, In the Notional Intelligencer: Kicumont>, .luly Ik,5807, /Am. Charles A. Eldridge: My Dear Sir-I have sees your remarke ae rmdlslMHl. They are substantially correct. Every we rd that I said to you In Richmond la m t only true, but can bo proved by Federal otlli'frs. I did offer, In August, to deliver the Federal sick and woundea, without equivalent, ami urged tho necessity of basic In send* for t hem, ae the mortality was terrible. I old offer to deliver from ton to fifteen thousand at is ivannah without delay. Although this offer was made In August, transportation waa not sent lor them until December, and during the interval the mortality was perhaps at Ito greatest tili'ht. If 1 had not made the offer, why did tlio Federal authorities send transport*ti >n to Savannah for ten or fifteen thousand n o ? If I made tho offer based only on equ"' idents. why did tho sumo transporatler «5»"y down for dollvory only three thoiisa«d Built r says tho offer was road* J® . e.rdlng to the newspaper it port, and that seven thousand were delivered. Tho offer was made In August, “"tl they were sent for in December. 1 men delivered more than fblrtrrn thou'-md, and woutd have gone to the tbteett t.’iousand. if tho Federal transporinllun h.id been sulllclcnt. My instructions to niv agents were to deliver fifteen thousand sick and wounded, and If that number of that elats were not en nand, to make up tho number by well men. The offer was made by me In pursuance of Instructions from the confederate secretary of war. I was ready to keep up tho arrangement until every sick and wounded man had been returned. Tim three thousand men sent to Savannah liv the Foderals were In as wretched a condition as any detachment of prisoners ever sent frem a confederate prison. Allthese things are susceptibleo* proof, and I am much mistaken If I can not prove them bv Fo’eral authority. I am quite sure that General Mulford will sustain every allegation here made. Yours, truly, R. OULD. 1’. 8. General Butler’s correspondence Is all on one side, as 1 was Instructed at the date of hts letters to hold no correspondence with him. 1 corresponded with Mulford or General Hitchcock. It.OULD.

I doubt not that had it been necessary, General Cameron would have received three-fourths of the Republican votes. All I mean tossy Is, that Instead of sixteen votes, all ho had at the time of the election, a full discussion of the im rits of the candidates, convinced at least sixty of the superiority of General Cameron. For myself, 1 have no fault to find with the
decision.
"This is a long answer to your question,and Is rather a defense of Mr. Barton, who could not expect to resist arguments which had convinced and changed so many others. “I have no objection to your using this In you district, but ills not intended to reopen ihe question by a more extensive publication. ••With great respect, your obedient servant, “tuauukuu Stevens.” no one can peruse this letter from the head and front of the radical party .without being convinced of its rottenness. He charges that Mr. Cameron no* only received sufiieient votes to elec* him, but if it had been necessary he could have obtained three fourths of tho Republican votes, and that means, if there is any meaning in bis assertions, that Mr. Camvik.w oouiu b^ve purchased nearly nil •t> f ' Oa publican mem boro <r tt bad been necessary to secure his election. Is not this a pretty commentary upon Republican morals from tho hi^h priest of the party ? Negro EqtiMlity. The Philadelphia Age says that before the people of this once Constitution governed nalion adopt and indorse the negro equality platform of the radical party, they should lock at the present condition of Mexico. In that country "negroes vote and possess equalBy, and what Is the state of affairs?—continual revolutions, conspiracies and wars. Neither property nor life has been at any time secure In that country since the enfranchisement of the blacks. Mongrelism has cursed Mexlcoaslt will curse tho United States unless the radical party schemers shall bo defeated.” Wo can no more escape from Iho consequosccB of an admixture of races than Mexico, or any other land in which tho suicidal experiment has been tried. And yet, In order to retain political power* the radicals are determined to enforce negro equality upon the States, and place colored men In positions where they can undermine our institutions as they have those of other 1 mds. Mexico has had a bitter experience in this line, and the (pieretaro tragedy Is a fitting finale to a policy which is similar to that now upheld by the dominant party In this land. If we would not follow in the downward course of Mexico, we must dispossess the fanatics who now rule the nation, restore the Constitution to Its old place ae a governing power, and prevent such a war of races as that which is now cursing and ruining the land of the Montezuma*. f(e H.rord. Wo find the following in the Journal of yes-
terday:
“No party in the history of the country ever accomplished so much In so brief a period, or can point to a record that will deserve and receive so prominent a place In history,” Such will be the record of the Republican or radical party, by whatever name It Is known, if we accept the prediction of one of Its apologists. But what are its accompliihmente? A public debtof near three thousand millions of dollars and a taxation which has no parallel In the most despotic and tax ridden government of the old world. This Is the legacy which the K‘publican party has fastened upon tba/m,,*try. The cost of administering the government Is six fold more now than under the Democratic administration which preceded tho present radical dynaaty. And there Is no proepect of relief or a diminution of theso enormous public expenses as long as the Republican party bold# the geverning power. Corruption and extravagance have chtractcrl*#d it from the beginning nnd they have born developed with Its growth and Increased with Itaatrength. Sueb is a port!nn of the record which will give the Republican party a detestable as well aa prominent'place in history. For once the Journal la on the right track and antldpatee correctly the judgment of the future on the infamous record which Its party
has made.
• The Nogro Vote aontb. The probabilities are there will be a majority of negro votes In Virginia under the millt«ry reconstruction sets. It Is believed that about ninety thousand negro votera have been registered, while tho whites, who could barv* registered to the number of one hundred and twenty-five thousand, are, according to the computation row made, several thousand beMad tb« blacks. That the negroes will act Mmpuetly in polities, nnd make strenuous attempts to Meet their own specie! representstlvee, Maok or whits there le Buie doubt; and Mat much bitter new of feeling between the two rness will bo engendered to the contest for potltteM supremacy, Is evident from the yrw sat soar si of things.

A Sorrow EUl. Case.—On Saturday mornInglast the family of Mr. Samuel Milligan, living some tnree miles northeast of the city, discovered a young woman, al>out nineteen years of age. lying in the orchard on the farm, where she had evidently spent the preceding night. She proved to be deaf and dumb and was almost In a starving condition having oat nothing but green fruit for a period of three or four days, and she was otherwise In a wretched and pitiable condition. She was taken to tho house and kindly cared for; and during the day Mr. Milligan brought her to tho office of tho township trustee. That officer succeeded in ascertaining that sho had been living for two years past at Washington, Daviess county, and was endeavoring to make her way from that point to Paris, Illinois, near which place she has relatives living. Tho trustee very promptly and humanely gave her free transportation on tho western train, and ere this the poor unfortunate is undoubtedly enjoying ihe protection and care of her friends.

—We hear that In the early part of the week Chapman Harris, a well known negro of this place, was chased from Trimble county, Kentucky, nnd barely escaped with his life. It seems that Harris had been employed by a man who has rented Della Webster’s farm, to haul blackberries to the river, and Harris, in ibe quiet pursuit of his business, was waylaid by n number of men. well armed, who fired at him a number ol times. Fortunately Harris was within a short distance of the river, and managf’d by "a lettln’ of his old brack sef out” to escape, or It would have been a sad blackburying Indeed for him. Such acts as ibese are or too frequent occurrence In ou» neighboring State to pass by unnoticed. We are tired of apologizing for acts of cowardly <»nr1 ilmofirtrdlj* Jrawlottouvr’o, by tri bublU£ It tt) irresponsible persons. Irresponsible persons must bo controlled by responsible persons, or if they are not controlled it is an obvious conclusion that their acts are countenanced. It is true that Chapman Harris Is a negro, and before the war was quite actively engaged In assisting fugitive slaves to escape For that we have little blame for him. He was a negro, •tnd was assisting to free bis own race. A newro that was notan abolitionist was not worthy to be called a negro, even. It was the white abolitionist, the less than negro, who was constantly sneaking around meddling himself with other people’s business, that we despised nnd not the negro. The sooner such acts as wo have narrated stop, the better for Kentucky. The first thing they know martial law will be declared In their State, and then not only will the Irresponsible persons bo punished but gentlemen will suffer the tyrannies of military despotism for the sets of these lawless

D rf—a will which was bolleved to bo somewhere in America. The committee ransacked tbe country for Information, but without an tncouraglDg result until January last, when they traced It to two lawyers, but where the committee do not say. An Interview was arranged and in March last the custodians of this long lost and highly prized paper offered to surrender It for #10,000 in money and a tenth of the property H devises. The committee rejected this proposition nnd others; but at length, In June last, they covenanted to pay for the will as soou as It should be to their satisfaction proved to bo genuine, $20,000 In money and tfiO.OOO In tho Ingraham association scrip. Tho commlttoe have satisfied themselves that tho descendants of Joseph Wilson, can, If they choose, establish their claim by a civil action; but they deem It prudent to purchase tho paper, which will give them a clean title to the property, that they claim, since a law suit might be tedious and even more costly than tbe proceedings which
are proposed.
Mr. Ingraham having concluJed bis remarks, Mr. Van Dorn, of Vermont, informed the meeting that he had made personal Inquiry in the city of Leeds, and assured himself that all tbe American claimants require is Joseph Cowell’s will to establish their ownership of every rod of land whereon the city Is built—every manufacturer and every householder to this day being merely a tenant, paying ground rents to the agents who assume to represent the lawful heirs, and the larger manufacturers being desirous of finding somebody who can sell and give them a perfect title to the land on which all their lives they have been merely squatters. After remarks by several lawyers of the family, sty^,^. ecrlptlons were op«"««^^n"d before tho ad. Ing the necessafflni actually paid or pledged about $1,500. The f.iraily will meet again to-day, perhaps with recruits, and resume the subscriptions, and until the entire $20,000 has been obtained, or until it shall become necessary to pay out the money, the executive committee will depo-lt tbe association’s funds with the Life and Trust Company
of this city.
This remarkable claim to lands which were bequeathed nearly two hundred years ago, and on which an opulent and buoy city of 200,000 population has been built, involves a love story which mlfikt form the thread of a readable romance. The daughter of Joseph Wilson, a wealthy freeholder ot proud descent, married, without her father’s consent, Edward Cowell, a pleblan, of Yorkshire, and tbe young couple, renounced by Wilson, emigrated to the American colonies, and cast their lot in Boston. In 1080 Wilson died, without, however, relenting toward his daughter, and when his l *st testament was opened it appear, d ih.it he had given his property, con-si-ti, :f of l.u.ds on H,e river Ayre—about six
lo 1 i by three in width—to his d iiiliin - . Snrdi Go vdl, entailing It,
howtw r. t» Hie f urtb gt i,> ration. The will was tent to Sarah Cowell long before her marriage with Timothy Ingrainm, and was handed down to her daughter; but the estate, being un-eUled and yielding no revenue, anti being, moreover, entailed to tbe descendants ofbeirs dwelling at a great distance, was left in the hands of agents and almost wholly forgotten except by them. At length a manufacturing town of some importance arose on tbe Wilson lands, and a grandson of the devisor made an attempt to recover the property, but be died on shipboard before reaching England. The next effort was made in 1805 by Captain Solomon Ingraham, a great grandson of the devisor. Ho was an East India eaptain, and sailed with bis wife from New York, taking all the papers relating to tho estate. These ho intrusted to Mr. Ersklne, of London, then an eminent lawyer, but •’ftcr-
ward Lord Chancellor of England.
Captain Ingraham having died at Mauras, the papers were retained by Erskino in London, nobody making further inquiry touching the property until 1825, when the Ingraham family learned that London newspapers had contained advertisements seeking the heirs. They then sent Isaac Smith to England to look up the estate, which was was then reported to worth more than £40,000 a year. Ho learned that tbe papers bad been left by the first Lord Erskineto his son and successor, then minister to Bt lgmm, and that they were locked up In London. Therefore Smith returned, unsuccessful, to America. No further effort was made until 1852, when Gilbert R. Glddlngs, of Providence, and Columbus Smith, of Vermont, the latter a lawyer who had been eminently successful in prosecuting American claims to English estates, went to London and saw tbe late Lord Ersklne, to whom the papers bed fallen; but Lord Ersklne dallied with M***rs. Gladding and Smith, until th<dr funds fulling, they Were compelled to return to America. Mr. Gladding pnraned bis researches, and. after scouring England in vain, died in Providence in the full belief that the will had been brought back to the United States and was somewhere to be found in this country. Mr. W. J. P. Ingraham and others took the task in hand where Gladding left it, and were until recently subjected to the scoff* of many Incredulous heirs; but tho announcement of the finding of the will silenced cavil, and drew together the largest multitude of tho heirs that ever assembled. Mr. Ingraham has no doubt whatever that the descendants of Sarah Cowell can recover this enormous property, which he estimates to be worth snoie than than $100,000,000—exclusive of tbe back rents, for which It may not be worth the while to
contend.
t was subsequently ascertained that he had run away with about $50,000 In money, beloagtaf tor «M nest part to depositors, and that be had not stolen the bonds belonging to tfefi bank. .Tifi Investigations, wbich are in precress, ere rendered somewhat difficult, owing, to /he faCt that Baron m took away with him many of the depositor's books, which had been left to be written up.

Presidential Intrignes-A Uadlcal Ai count of why Impeachment I* a
fail nr*.
Tbe causes that prevent Impeachment arc, briefly, the Intriguing of cliques for tbe Presidential succession, tbe cowardice of tbe old Wfcto •L.mnnt in tbe party, and the timidity of tbe National bank interest, to wki.-h must be added the national depravity of politicians
generally.
Thaddeus Stevens, in closing tbe debate, told hts ftlends In favor of tbe impeachment that it was of no use—that there was a sufflelent number in the other to prevent conviction, and that secret Influences were at work which shielded the White House with an impenetrable panoply. What are these secret Influences wbich shield the White House of which be speaks? We can tell the country what the dauntless old statesmen saw flt to
withhold.
These secret Influences are tbe determination of the Grant and Chase factions that Ben Wade shall not be made President through impeachment, thereby giving him the first chance for tbe nomination of the party In 1808. it is well known that Chief Justice Chase has been bringing his personal influence to bear upon Members of both Houses, both directly and Imlirectly, against Impeachment during tbe iaettwo weeks. The Chief Justice oi the United States descending from hie high place to Intrigue for hi* own nomination to tbe Presidency, by opposing an Impeachment at tbe trial of which he would have to preside, and because such impeachment would benefit a rival candidate, Is a humiliating spectacle. Comment is unnecessary. Tbe statement of
the fact is enough.
Mr. Chase's mania for tbe Presidential office to a melancholy exhibition of which we have bad many painful examples among our public men. Notwithstanding the activity of his friends, and tbe wealth of the bank Interest pledged to bis support, we tell him plainly that he has not the ghost of a chance. He has no popular strength whatever. Too mention of hie name make* not a tingle ripple of feeling or enthusiasm In any quarter. Why will he not seve himself from Inevitable mortlttcatke to cusses end conventions r n * The Grant faction, tod by Henry Wilson, Is Jaet now in tbs ascendant, and they confidently expect to dragoon tbe radical Republicans Into hie support by tho old cry of expediency. and the permanent importance of euceees. These era theism# tactics that saddled us with Andrew Johnson; and wo giro these gentlemen fair warning that we shall fight that nomination to the loot extremity. The cause of liberty to this country is not to bo sold out twice on the same plan without a determined struggle. The Republican party ho* a number of statesmen, any one of whom on a radical plotfona would bo unobjectionable, and would receive our hearty support. Prominent among these to tho name of old Bon Wade. We are not, however, wedded to the interests of any candidate, but tho attempt to crowd down our throat* a mua of doubtful generalship and unknown prinetptoo win be resisted with every weapon we can command.

PROSPECTUS.
PROSPECTUS OF THE INDIANAPOLIS HERALD, Dally and Weekly, for 1807. The great political questions which arc to be discussed and decided during the coming year possess a general and absorbing interest. To secure an Intelligent verdict upon them, the pub 11c mind should be thoroughly informed upon tho Issues, and the best means of Information is an able and fearless press. Every Democrat should take a paper, especially one that enlightens him on the questions in which he is Immediately interested. The Proprietors ot the Herald intend that it shall not only fully discuss the general issues before tbe country, but also those connected with State policy. There can be no more powerful agency in maintainingConstitntional Liberty than a free press, and it shall be the leading object of the Herald to advocate the equal righto and sovereignty of the States, In all powers not delegated to the Federal Government and the personal liberty of the citizen.

This class of persons undoubtedly will be more liable to contract this disease than those possessed of strong and healthy digestive organs. The question then naturally arises, how shall we restore and keep these organs in a healthy and normal condition?
