Every moral and material interest is tleeply concerned (n the triumph of reconstruction. That mcafore is more than half completed, and it will be a sad supplement to all their sacrifices of blood and treasure if tno American people should prove indif ferent to their own duty or antagonistic to their own welfare. The Rebel newspapers do not utterapt to restrain their ecstacies over the bite elections. The Charleston Mercury, of a recent date, says: The only question for the majority in Congress now to consider Is this Khali they urge this policy upon th Southern Staets, and thug keep in action and int-nttc exasperation an issue on which it is plain they have leen and must be beaten, aud which, therefore, must fall; or will they give it up at once, and leave the public mind to be enpaecd on other issues, which may give Item some chance of recovering iost popularity and power? If they insist upon clinging to this issue of negro suffrage, and attempt to fore it into operation ! revolutionary violence and the bayonet, tlieir fall vill only be deeper and more damning. It mayei'en bring wtth if jiersonal and bloody retribution on the revolutionists and tyrants who shall uttcmjit to en force it. j ne Richmond T.nnnirtr snvs : Kepro suffrage will not be established here, except through our own fatal and mistaken exoneration, if we will be firm, patient and discreet. In short, the result in Pennsylvania and Ohio, with the other like indications, are the knell of that plan of "settlement," which 1b such only in bitlec irony, and the public mind will now turn to more rational views, The road to national tranquility is still long, it may be; bat it is shorter than it was, now that we are going to the front in the right direction I The Radi cals bad put np false finger-boards, and tnrnod the backs of the people upon pence, and led them away, While professing to travel toward it I The Memphis A xalanche sans : This Kadlcal faction is simply a band of political assassins and public plunderers, of whom blasphem ing lirownlow, the beast Butler, and the devil Incar nate Thad, Stevens are the genuine types and head men, the trnest representatives and niost acceptable leaders. We cannot even feel indifferent, but must, of necessity, hats so foul and miserable a faction with a hatred that naturally grows more intense with each new act of daily and hourly oppression. The Almighty Ituler of us all is a Orod of truth, of piety and of Jus tice, lie, therefore, requires such antipathy at our hands, and until ho shall see fit to change the eternal Standards of right and wrong it will be the duty of every honest man to detest ;and make war upon tho American ItadtcalH, thoso assassins or liberty aud ene mies of maukiud. -t It requires no prophet to foretell that, it the Novem ber elections should cud in Itepublican defeats, tho threat of Andrew Johnson on the 22d of t obruiirv, 1H66, and frequently repeated since, will be fulfilled at whatever hazard. Enabled from onr opportunities t the national capital, and from our extensive corres pondence with our agents and friends in the Southern States, to weigh the sincerity of these threats, wo de clare to you, our countrymen, that nothing more is re quired by these violent, revolutionary and desperate men but the belief that they are sustained by the pub lic opinion or the conquering States to adventure an other conspiracy, and to demand, if necessary by force, their restoration to the power they wielded at so tcrrlule a cost to t tie public peace, wuai patriot, win not shrink from contributing to such a catastrophe? That the American people are equal to any new trial, however terrible that the apostate's appeal-to force, though backed by tho whole Kebel army, would end in his own overthrow, and their perpetual dlsfranchrse meiit, may be confidently anticipated; but when, by the cordial and united performance of a pluiu and peacefnl duty at the ballot-box In November, you can void further bloodshed, assist the great work of re construction, and perpetuate Kepublican ascendancy, lew words ol ours should be required to arouse you to an instant apprehension or your country's peril aud your own solemn obligations. When we can secure everything by uu intelligent uud discriminating exor cise of the ballot, why shall wo encourage the men vcho possess the confidence of no party, and have a thousand times confessed that they deserved the se verest punishment for their crimes? There is not one commanding interest that is not deeply concerned in the triumph of the Republican party iu the comiuc elections. Every owner of public securities, national or State, every railroad corporation, every bauk, every avings institution, every manufacturer.every mechanic snd laborer with a greenback in his pocket, would iu Btantlyfeel the defeat of that party in the depreciation of their property, aud iu the decline of their business. Iicar fa mind that all who are interested in the defeat of reconstruction and the Kepublican party are also interested in the overthrow of the nutioual credit. The recent speech of Jesse D. Bright is a startling proof of their malignant nd dangerous purposes. That daring sympathizer, as if to confirm the Justice of his expulsion for treason from the Senate, in 1601, recently declared at a public meeting in Kentucky, where he now resides, "that the war wan unconstitu tional; Congrsts was an unconstitutional body; its acts mrt null end void ; the natwiuil debt is not biiiding; shir sry is not aholUhed; slaves must be returned to tluiir tnasters: Southern men must be paid for all louses sus tained (luring the war, and they must be governed by the principle of State riihts." And he closes by advising the people "not to pay another dollar of taxes to tlie -twnal government." These are the ideas cherished bv leaders of the com bined opposition, which your indiffereuce in the com ing election will organize into ft new, aud possibly into a triumphant rebellion. llad Andrew Johnson been allowed to restore the traitors to their old possessions the ten States that receded from the Vnion, with Tennessee, Delaware, Maryland, and Kcutucky, would now be solidly united in favor of the repudiation of the national debt, un less the ltebel debt were added to it, and this load would soon have heen increased by other demands not less ruinous and revolutionary. The declaration f Mr. Bright is hardly necessary to prove a purpose cherished and daily avowed by the Kebel leaders In 11 the bonthcrn .States nut tho great measure or reconstruction foiled and forever defeated this com jiouud wickedness; and now. iu the example of Ten nessee, we anticipate the ..needy redumption of all the States that were led into Helwlliou, and the com plete salvation of the national credit aud revenue Hut you fhould be controlled by even higher motives You Bliould remember that six millions of Union men in all the South, while and bho-n, u to ,(m r,,r"f" cor and for encouragement.

To the sugges tion of co operative societies, I would sy that the main obbtae'e to their success rests with women themselves they have, as a rule, not Bullieient business tact to control suoh organi f.iiious, and In the present state of fe male intellectual development, not snlli clent mental calibre to understand either tnelr dtsl!?n or proposed results.

I therefore think It mere Jolly to talk of trades' unions or business combinations for women, nulll ihey are educated Into broader and more intelligent views and business habits. As for the inventing new trades and employ ments lor them, that is equally foolish, as the luxuries or necessities ol society alone can create the demand for new branches of labor. 'o one can expect success In the Invention of. a trade not tieruauded by the wants of the com munity. Indeed, there is no dearth of occupa tion at present for man or woman. Throughout the length and breadth of the laud the prollrto earth is ottering abundance of healthful, remu nerative, and manly occupation for men, whilst there are dozens of the lighter mechanical trades which may and will be opened to women whenever they are meutully and physically fitted to lake them; und until they do qualify themselves to nil them, they will and should be kept out of them. A woman's necessities, how ever much they may appeal to the sympathies, do not entitle her to take rank with a compe tent person in olllce or manufactory. The tact that 8he is starving on needlework at twenty or thirty cents per day (which would be belter fiald if It were better done), does not make it in perallve upon the humane nnd Just to take her Into printing, telegraph, or other ollloes at t'i or 82-50 per day. When womeu are, by proper training, pre pared to euvBKe lu thu sumo business In the Bume shops with pien wheu, by au apprentice ship of the same duration to the same trade, they are able to accomplish an equal amount of work us well as skilled' artisans then, and nut until then, should they expect or wish to receive the Mime pay. There should be no sex in labor, aud no matter how strong a feeling of chivalry mnv exist among men towards women in social relations, in matters of business equal aud exact Justice is all that should be desired and all that is really desirable. It Is simply prepos terous for women to go us learners for three or six months lnlo a printing or telegraph oiriee, mid lit the end of that time expect to receive the same pay as the mechanic who understands every detail of a busiuess which he has spent five or seven years to acquire. The gist of the matter is Just this: Parents (no mntter how hard they may have worked themselves), accepting as gospel the teachings of their pastors, who proclaim all ell'orts to render womeu Independent as opposed to the "honor, beauty, aud dignity" of the sex. as woUhs to the design ol Uod, bring up their female children to be useless and dependent; and when these unfortunates, by the death or marriage of male relatives, are cast upon tho troubled waters of life, they find themselves without chart or rudder, sail or compass, aud too often drift holplessly and hopelessly to de struction. Tite only way to elevate them above the chance of such a disaster is to educate them for the poss'billtles of life rather than its probabi lities to hrimr them no not alone for the "com ing man," but for the coming reverses, trials, and temptations that may be their lot to iu Ktriict. them that God intended them to be co-laborers with and helps-meet for man, not mere parasites to weanen ana destroy mat a Woman wno nas no ouubuhuub bu wh, muiuci, or daughter, to confine hertohome duties (than which none can be higher or more imperative), is as much a true womanly womau in offloe or workshop as in drawing-room or kitchen, aotl more to be honored when she takes her place as a helpful and intelligent worker beside her brother man. than when she con sents to remain a burthen upon him, to cripple anu rctaru nis upwaru progress. jh. a., u.

A robe of point d'AUnon lace in the Taris Exposition represents 10,500 day8' labor in its manufacture. Mr. Henry O'Niel, of the Royal Aoademy, has in pre8 what, from his spouialty, we take to be an art-work, tailed "Two Thousand YeAia Hence." A YANKEE IN THE ORIENT. ! Poetic! Iliimbiiginy. ; Constantinople, Aug. 31, 18G7. When I think bow I have been swindled by book oi Oriental travel, I want a tourist for breakfast. For years and years I have dreamed of the wonders of tho Turkish bath j for jcars and jcars I have pro mised mjself that I would yet enjoj one. Many and many a time, in fancy, I have lain in the marble balh, and bteathed the slumbrous fra grance of Eastern apices that filled the air; then passed thiough a weird and complicated sys tem of pulling and haulinrr, and drenching and tcrubblng, by a gang of naked ravages, who loomed vast and vaguely through the steaming mists, like deaious; then res-ted for a while on a divan fit for a king; then paused through another complex otdeal, and one more fearful than the liist; and finally, swathed in soil fabrics, was conveyed to a princely snloou and l aid upon a bed of eider down, where eumicbo, portreotis of co'turne, fanned me while I drowsed and dreamed, or conttuteab gazed at the rich hangings ot the apartment, iho solt carpets, the sumptuous fur niture, the pictures; Hiid drank .leliciou.i coffee, smoked the soothing nnrghili, and drjpprd, at the lat, into tranquil repose, lulled by sensuous odors Horn unseen censers, by the gentle itillu cute ot the tiarghili'i IVtMau tobacco, an i by the music ot lountains that counterleiteJ the pattering of summer rain. That was the picture, just as I got it irom in cendiary books of travel. It was a poor, misera ble traud. The reality ig no more like it than the Five Points are like the Garden of Kden. They received me in a great court, paved with marVlc blabs; around it were broad galleries, one above another, carpeted with seedy maltiug, railed with unpainted balustrades, and furnished with huge, rickity chairs, cushioned with rusty old mattrtfcses indented with impressions left by the lornis of nine successive generations ol men who had reposed upon them. The place was vast, naked, dreary its court a btru, its galleries stalls lor human horses. The cadava rous, halt-nude varlets that served iu the esta blishment had nothing of poctiy in their appear ance, nothing of romance, nothing of Oriental splendor. They shed no entrancing odors just the contrary. Their hungry eyes and their lank forms continually suggested one glaring, unsen timental tact they wanted a "square meal." I went up into one of the racks and un dressed. An unclean starveling wrapped a gaudy table-cloth about myloinsand hancr a white lag over my Bhoulders.' If 1 had had a tub then, it would have come natural with me to take in washing. I was then conducted down stairs into the wet, slippery court, and the first things thnt attracted my attention were my heels. My fall excited no comment They, expected it, no doubt. It belonged in the list of softening, sensuous influences peculiar to this home of Eastern luxury. It was soften ing enough, oertalnlv: but its application was not happy. They now gave me a pair of wooden clogs, benches in miniature, with leather straps over them to confine my feet (which they would have done, only I do not wear No. 13s). lbe6C things daDgleu uncomfortably by the straps when I lifted up my feet, aud came down in awkward and unexpected places whin I put them ou the floor again, and some times turned sideways and wrenched my ankles out of joint. However, it was all Oriental luxury, and I did what 1 could to enjoy it. They put me in another part of the barn and laid me on a stuffy sort of pallet, which was not made of cloth of gold or Persian shawls, but was merely tne unpretending son oi tning 1 have teen in the negro quarters of Arkansas. There was nothing whatever in this dim marble prison but five more ot these biers. It was a very solemn place. I expected that the spiced odors of Araby were going to steal over my senses now, but they didn't. A copper-colored skeleton, with a rag around him. brought me a plai-s decanter ol wuter, with a lighted tobacco Iilpe In the top ot it, and n pltunt btcm t& yard ong, with a brass mouth-piece to it. It wus the famous "narghlli" of the East the thing the Urnnd Turn smokes iu the pictures. This began to look like luxury. I took one blast at it, and it was stillicieut. "The smoke all went down my throat. It came buck iu convulsive snorts throtich my nose. It had a vile taste, and the tune ol a thousand iniidel tongues that remained on that brass mouth-piece was -viler still. I was getting discouiaeed. Whenever hereafter I see the cross-legged (Jrand Turk smoking his narchili, in pretended bliss, on the outoide ot .a paper of Connecticut tobacco, I shall kno w hjm lor the shameless humbug he is. This prison was tiled w ith hot air. When I Lad got warmed up sufficiently to prepare me for a fctill warmer temperature, tbey took me where it was Into a marble room, wet, slippery, and steamy, and laid me out on a. raised plut lorm in the centre. It was very warm. Pre sently my man tat me dowu by a tank of hot water, drenched me well, gloved his hand with a course mitten, and began to polish me all over with it. I began to tmell disagreeable. Tho more he polished, tho worse I smelt. It was alarming. I batd to him, "I perceive that I am pretty far pone. It is plain that I ought to be buried without any unnecessary delay. Per haps jou had better go alter my lricnds at once, because tho weather is warm, and I cannot 'keep' long." He went on scrubbing, and paid no attention. I soon saw that he was reducing my size. He bore hard on his mitten, and from under it rolled little cylinders, like maccaroni. It could not be dirt, for it was too white. He pared me down in this way for a long time. Finally I said: "It is a tedious process; it will take hours to trim me to tho size you want me. I will watt; go and borrow a Jack-plane.'" He paid no attention at all. After a while he brought a basin, some soap, and something that seemed to bo the tall of a horse. He made up a prodigious quantity of soap suds, deluged mo witn ttiem irom neau to foot, without warning me to shut my eyes, and then swabbed me viciously with the horse-tail. Then he lelt me there, a statue of snowy lather, and went away. When 1 got tired of waiting, I went and hunted him up. He was propped against the wall, in another room, asleep. I woke him. He was not disconcerted. He took me back and Hooded me with exhausting hot water, then turbaned my head, swathed mo with dry table-cloths, and conducted me to a luuiieu uiiie&tu-uuup iu uuu ui tuu kliui-hio, and nnlnte.l to one of those Arkansas beds. I mounted it. and vaguely expected the odors of Araby agaiu.
