ELECTION.-TIIESDAY, OCTOBER 8
A Washington dispatch says: "Democrat
ic papers are circulating a statement that Gen.
GRANT does not hesitate in conversation to
condemn negro suffrage. This is wholly
groundless. The 'General declares his firm
belief that the negroes Of the South are fully
competent to exercise the right to vote intel
ligently on present issues there ; and further,
that only through universal suffrage can rebel
rule be broken down at the ballot box ; that
qualified suffrage would not at the present
time afford the means of overcoming the rebel
vote."
Gov. MORTON lays down the chief planks in
the Democratic platform as follows :
The repudiation of the national debt.
- .
The restoration of slavery, or, it that am
not be done, payment by the nation for the
slaves.
Pensioning the soldiers' widows arid or
phans of the confederate army.
Recognition of the right of secession.
And the unconditional return of rebels to
political power.
IN a recent speech in Ohio, in referring to
colored suffrage, Hon. JOIL'i A. BINGHAM
said :
Your armies bore witness that 175,000 of the
black population, made free by the proclama
tion of liberty, were in the army of the Re
public. When you consider that the majori
ty of the black population were the slaves of
rebels, and within their territoy, unable to
signify to the United States Government their
willingness to serve it, the fact that as large a
proportion as of the free whites rushed to the
defense of your flag, speaks well for their
patriotism. In reference to this, what said
General Sheridan ? "The hand that lays down
the musket lutist be permitted to take up the
ballot." That was the soldier's opinion, and
the patriot's opinion.
IN relation to the impeachment that calm
and able paper, the Nation, says :
"We have opposed with such arguments
and with as much earnestness as we had at
command the attempts to impeach the Presi
dent. We did so from the belief, which we
still retain, that up to this summer he had
done nothing to justify a resort to a danger-
Us; precedent. * * * * If he now obsti
nately perseveres in refusing to acknowledge
.issubordination to Congress, every consid
rration of safety and duty calls for his re
tkovaL The spirit be is displaying is the le
gitimate result of the extraordinary extension
given to the power of the Executive during
the war. It must be crushed at once, and
crushed so sternly and effectually that no fu
turd President will ever allow it to take pos
session of him."
TirE "Democrats" are trying to "make
hay while the sun shines." They are
strodgly pressing the pardon of all their
friends who were caught stealing during
the var. The N. Y. Tribune gives this
accoßnt of a case in which Judge BLACK
is-codcerned :
"At: effort is now being made here by Jerry
Mac' to have the President pardon one W. B.
N. Chzzens, who was convicted during the
latter part of the war of swindling the Gov
erment out of several hundred thousand dol
lars. Cozzens was a large army contractor in
Philulelphia during the war, and was charged
with defrauding the Government in the man
ufacuring of tents and clothing for the army,
was tried on this charge by the Doubleday
Cout-martial, found guilty, and sentenced to
imprisonment and fine. For some reason that
has lever been made public, uo action was
ever taken on the proceedings of the Court
martial by the War Department, and the sent
ence )f imprisonment was never carried into
effect) Before the trial began, however, Coz
zens'abondman was so convinced of his guilt
that ke voluntarily paid to the Government
the amount for which he was liable. A large
portiol of the money, as was alleged,
stolen from the Government by Cozzens, was
recoveted by the Government by canceling a
numbci
of Cozzens's vouchers on the Govern
ment. Cozzens Is now seeking to have this
mone
,I
funded to him, and the fine imposed
by the ourt-martial remitted, and the whole
thing ed by It full pardon. Black has been
trying i a long time to get Cozzens pardoned.
Judge It all along has refused to recommend
a pard , and this is one reason of the efforts
of lob men in Washington .to have Holt
remove ."

MORE "DEMOCRATIC"'
"TA..NIKEZ DOODLE" was hissed and
"Dixie" applauded by some of the persons .
present at a theater in Nashville, Tenn,„ a few
nights since, and General Duncan afterwards
addressed a note to themanagers, stating that
"If suchim insult to our, flag occurs again at
their entertainments, a military guard will be
detailed to attend them, with instructions to
expel all persons so offending &um the house."
On the 17th of September, 1863, a Demo
cratic mass meeting was held in Philadelphia,
and the faithful were addressed by a certain
candidate for the Legislature, at that tine one
of the editors of the Democratic organ in that
city. Among other things he uttered this
infamous sentiment: "I cannot regard a great
victory over my Southern brethren as any
thing but food for- melancholy reflection."
Tux same organs which for four years
argued that the President and C, ogress com
bined had no authority to make war for the
suppression of rebellion and the protection of
the Government, are now arguing with equal
zeal, as, well as stupidity, that the President
alone has power to grant a general amnesty
to rebels', in the absence of any constitutional
provision on the subject, and in the taco of a
law of Congress prohibiting liffn from doing
so. These two facts are significant andl per
fectly consistent with each other—being
equally in the interest of rebels.
_. ~ r_~._
A CORRESPONDENT of the Montgomery
(Ala.) Advertiser thus arraigns the turbulent
Rebel leaders in the South. Read and•ponder
the statements :
I ‘They, at this time, hold nearly all civil of
fices in the country, except in some of the
cities where wise changes have been made by
the commanding General.
"They swear to the military authorities that
they do nothing to obstruct reconstruction,
while they use all the machinery and influence
which their position gives them, to defeat the
objects of Congress.
"They refuse to give any Union man jus
tice, when they can possibly do him injustiCe.
They make every Union man's means of liv
ing worthless to him if possible, by a studied
course of persecution to those who patronize
his business.
"They make every Union man's life unsafe
by refusing to bring to justice these who
threaten and mistreat him, or swindle him out
of his just dues.
"They make every Union man's life miser-
able if they can, by advising every respectable
person to refuse to treat them as gentlemen,
and setting the example themselves. They
deter young men from being loyal, by order
ing all young ladies over whom they have au
thority, to refuse to speak to - Union men,
whether from the North or South.
"They frighten and deceive the colored
voters by threats and falsehoods.
"They tell the colored men If they vote for
a Convention and for loyal men, that they
have to pay higher taxes, go to war and lose
their liberty.
"They make colored men afraid to vote for
a Convention, by discriminating against•them
in their official dealings.
"They intimidate many young men who
would instruct the colored voters right, by
slandering all who do it, and attempting to
make it disgraceful
"They use 'every means in their power to
keep the colored people in ignorance, in.order
to make them vote against the Union, and the
better to swindle them
"They attempt to bring dishonor and con
tempt on the Government, by cursing the na-
tional flag and the Union.
"They make Union officers' lives unsafe
(n - hen a Union officer can be found in the
count by advising all bad men whom be
may arrest or punish, to take his life.
"They attempt to make Union men's lives
miserable, by violating the customs and pledges
of their sacred orders and churches, and re-
fusing to show them due respect.
"And lastly, they defeat the objects of the
Government, by using every conceivable
threat to the timid, falsehood to the ignorant
persecution to the helpless, treaspn to the
,Government, official discrimination to the det-
riment of Union men, and pedury to their own
souls
"How long will our Government allow us
perseCuted for her sake? She is strong
enough to protect us, and will she let us be
driven from the country ?"
WILLIAM Swurrox is writing letters from the
Sqpth to the New York Times. He went
South with his prejudices against the Con
gressional IpolicE; but is convinced by obser
vation that it is the true and only plan to se
cure permanent peace to the country. We
quote an extract about the colored man :
"Then there came that severer test to the
negro—he was made a citizen. This was a
- measure, the wisdom of which was gravely
doubted by the majority, even of those who
really wished well to the colored man. I
confess that when I went South I believed the
enfranchisement of the blacks would prove a
mistake; but I very soon perceived that it
was at least a necessity. And, indeed, I have
seen no fair-minded Southerner who does not
admit that when the negro was' deprived of the
protection of his master it was absolutely ne
cessary he should have that other protection
which comes from *he possession of political
rights. But hero .again a pleasant surprise
met us. To justify the faith reposed in him,
the colored man began eagerly to fit himself
by education for citizenship. The progress
in this regard has been
,most astonishing.—
Not only are the children being taught, but
adults show a passionate hunger for learning ;
and if an educational qualification had been
required for voting, I believe that before the
next election there would hardly have been a
black man in the South that would not have
been able to read and write. I must add that
equally gratifying has been the improvement
in morals—in honesty, truthfulness and chasti
ty.
"It is hardly necessary to say that the blacks
are politically radical to a man. If there
was at one time a notion on the part of the
white "Conservatives" that they would be ab
to control the n'egro vote, this has completely
vanished: He is proof against both menace
and blandishment, and grasps the ballot as a
sacred think—% pearl richer than all his
tribe.' "
GEN. Cliterirr in his protest against the re
thoval of Sheridan, speaks of the Rebels as
" the unreconstructed element in the South—
those who did all they could to break up
this Government by force of arms, and now
wish to be the only element consulted as to
the method of restoring order. The Copper
heads are in the habit of callhig "er
ring brethren," who have only beeif contend
ingfor their right. under the Conetitation.
Aix the Liberals of Rarope are anx
iously awaking the solution of the probe
km of ( Reconstruction. Should it be
peaceful and oomplete, the course of Ku
man Rights every where will be advan
oed live hundred years. Yet penman
, elaiming to be "Democrats" are the
great obstacle. They are the enemies,
instead of the friends; of all mankind.

BY DB. HOLMES.
As Life's unending column pours,
Two marshapd hosts are seen—
Two armies on the trampled'shores
That death flows black between.
One marches to the drnm-beat roll,
The wide-mouthefi clarion's bray,
And bears upon a crimson Atoll,
"Our glory is to slay."
One-moves in silence by the stream
With sad, yet watchful eyes,
Calm as the patient•planet's gleam
That walks the *tided skies.
Alontits front np sabres shine,
No blood-red pennons wave;
Its banner bears the single line,
"Oar duty is to save.".
For those no death bed's lingering shade
At honor's trumpet-call,
With knitted brow and lifted blade
In glory's arms they fall.
For these no clashing Lalchions brigh
No striking battle-cry ;
The bloodless watcher calls by night
Each answers, "Here am II"
For those the sculptor's laurel'd bust,
The builder's marble piles,
The anthems pealing o'er their dust
Through long cathedral aisles.
For these the blossom-sprinkled turf,
That floods' the lonely graves,
When spring rolls in her sea-green surf
In flowery-foaming waves.
Two paths lead upward from below,
And angels wait above,
Who count each burning life-drop's flow,
Each falling tear of Love.
Though front the Hero's bleeding breast
Her pulses Freedom drew,
Though the white lilies in her crest
Sprang from that scarlet dew—
While Valor's haughty champions wait
Till all their scars are shown,
Love walks unchallenged through the gate
To sit beside the Throne !
THE WORTH OF KNOWLEDGE.
Could young men generally be persuaded
to believe that "knowledge' is power," and
that he who possesses it has within himself
all the elements of enjoyment and success in
life, there would be a closes husbanding of
leisure hours, fewer evenings spent in loung
ing upon corners, and fewer dimes and dol
lars expended for cigars, lager beer, tobacco,
and other costly and hurtful indulgences.—
It were folly to assert that such ability as was
possessed by Shakespeare, Scott, Macauley,
Noah Webster, Agassiz, or other illustrious
poets, novelists, historians, lexicographers or
naturalists, is within•the reach of all men ;
but it is sound philosophy to assume that eve
ry, young man who will, m*y so store his mind
with useful knowledge as tb fit him for pleas
ant and profitable association with intelligent
men. The evening hours which the majority
of our young men fritter away in idle loung
ing and unprofitable convervation and asso
ciation, if properly spent would give them a
moral influence in society, and improve their
chances of success in life to a degree that can
scarcely bey over estimated, How small an
amount of money is sufficient to secure, to
those who desire to cultivate a taste for men
tal information,all the needed facilities ? Eight
dollars will purchase a share in one of our
largest and best libraries, and less than a pen
ny a day thereafter will secure to him ell its
privileges. Think of it, young men! the fifth
of the cost of that bad cigar, you smoke, or of
the glass of lager you drink every evening,
will secure to you for that evening the peru
sal at home of some interesting and valuable
book, or the privileges of the reading room,
where are to be found newly all the leading
newspapers and. magazines of our own and
other countries ! Surely the thrusting aside of
such golden opportunities' is little less than
criminal, when it is remembered that their
improvement would not only prove a source
of lifetime enjoyment, but in almost every
pursuit of life a powerful adjunct to success.
He is but half fulfilling the purposes of his
creation who, having within ready reach the
means of improvement, fails to employ them.
He is but half a man whO, with books and
newspapers at command, ^ contents himself
with ignorance and mere sensual enjoyments.
An upright, skilful mechanic is to be com
mended always ; but when to his skill ite adds
a comprehensive and cultivated intellect, he
stands before the world one of nature's no
blemen. Neither wealth, rank, nor power
can enhance the lustre of hts character. Why
have we not thousands such? Viewed in a
mere utilitarian light, how Superior are the
adVantages of such a man ! How much more
readily will he find profitable employment
how better fitted for the discharge of duty,
where he combines intelligOnce with skill
The well informed mind diricts the masterly
hand, and his labor, instead of wearying drudg
ery, becomes pleasant mmaion.—Phi/ade/-

I Wish you would lend me fifteen dollars to
