The Democracy and Negro Suffrage.
It la a significant faot that while the Demoo
raoj of the North are attempting to win votes
for Seymour and Blair by bitter denunciations
of the Congressional system of reoonstractlon,
and especially of the extension of the right of
Suffrage to freedmen, the Rebels of the South
are attempting in good earnest to deceive the
negroes, and to convince them that the De
mocracy are better and more reliable frieuda
of the colored race than the Republicans. The
Bpectaole is a curious one, and the
taotics adopted worthy of the genius
of unscrupulous and dssperate politi
cians. The programme is to carry the
North by professions of intense hatred of the
negro, and the South by the most earnest pro
testations that be has suddenly become an
objeot of the intense affection and admiration
of his old oppressors. It is unnecessary to
direot the attention of the citizens of the
Northern States to the frequency and persist
ency of the appeals of Democratic orators aud
Journals to the popular prejudice against the
negro. In many counties they constitute the
Staple argument against the eleotion of the
Republican candidates, and the allegation that
Grant and Colfax oppose the destruction of the
existing political system of the South is con
sidered an ample reason for their defeat in
November.
In the South a widely different policy has
been adopted. The prediction of a uarcastio
and witty politician that if ever oolored men
Were allowed to vote, the extreme partisans of
the Democracy would not soruple to boast, as
an electioneering trick, that they had black
blood in their veins, is being substantially
realized. The warmth of this new affeotion is
really astonishing, and as an offset to the
inany awkward antecedents which go far to
prove, even to the most obtuse minds, its insin
cerity, there is not wanting an endless1 profu
sion of professions of ardent friendship and
love.
In Texas the Rio Grande Courier admon
ishes its readers that "we must show them we
are their true friends. We must treat them
With leniency. We must win them by justice
and kindness." This task will be diflianlt
enough to hardened slave-drivers of the Le
gree stamp, but their extreme devotion to the
interests ot the Democratic party will inoite
earnest efforts to accomplish it.
The Democracy of Mississippi, at a recent
meeting held at Yazoo City, pledged them
selves in the most solemn terms not only to
"oonfer impartial suffrage upon all men, irre
spective of color," but to respect, sustain, and
protect all the newly acquired legal rights of
the negroes in every emergency. These pro
fessions of approval of negro suffrage were ac
companied by the compliment, that the
negroes who voted with the Demooraoy
St the recent election "deserve well of their
country, and their services will ever be grate
fully appreciated by all men who have a due
regard for equal rights and constitutional gov
ernment," and as a clincher to these promises
and protestations, an irrefragable "evidenoe
and testimonial of esteem and good will" was
offered by tendering, on the part of the white
Demooraoy of Yazoo city to the oolored De
mooraoy of that vicinity, "a public barbecue
on the fourth Saturday of Augu3t, 18G8 !"
Not oontent with flattering the neophytes,
they are to be feasted by their loving Demo
cratic brethren, and preparations are being
made for such a flow of congenial white and
black souls as would astonish the benighted
Northern followers of the party, who are sim
ultaneously taught that Demooraoy is always
and everywhere the same, and that the corner
stone of the organization, being no longer
slavery, is now nndying hatred of the oolored
race.
In Louisiana the Democratic party treats its
oolored allies with equal affeotion and respeot.
The Alexandria (Rapids) Democrats boasts
they have recently had a barbecue at that
place also, and that the Demooratio proprietor
of a hotel plaoed at the disposal of the oolored
Demooraoy a line and large ball-room, where
the new allianoe was duly celebrated by ap
propriate terpsiohorean festivities. The Tiii
bodeaux Sentinel oommenoes a political article
designed to swell the ranks of Sey
mour and Blair with this stirring
appeal: "Colored Democracy of
Lafourche ! Wake up, organize your olubs,
and with the aid of our good citizens go to
work and secure the exercise of your rights 1"
The Iberville (La.) South announces that "a
colored Democratic club" is about to be orga
nized at that place, under the auspices of the
leading Demooratio white citizens. A syste
matized effort is being made by the Seymour
and Blair leaders to organize Demooratio freed
men olubs at various points throughout the
State, and the Demooratio journals boastingly
allude to the success which ia crowning this
Scheme.
In Alabama several colored Demooratio
clubs have already been formed, and Joseph
E. Williams, the colored Demooratio delegate
from Tennessee to the Tammany Hall Na
tional Convention, is stumping the State for
Seymour and Blair. Other oolored Demo
oratio orators who are speaking in Alabama
lave awakened the intense admiration of
Rebel journals, and especially one "Uncle
Bandy Cameron," who completely won thj
.mm vi Lt.v 4vuuval ..V.ti ly Lll
denunciation of the "carpet-baggers," which
conolnded wiwh the magnificent peroration that
"he had rather be lathered with aquafortis
and shaved irith a hand-saw, or live on
plleB hewed out with a broad-axe than to be
left in the hands of snoh a set of Boalawags."
This display of Southern rhetorio has rarely
been equalled and never exoelled in the
Rebel journals, and they display their usual
acumen in admiring and extolling so fine a
specimen of their favorite style of political in
TwulWe. In other Southern Statea similar move
ments have been made by the Demooraoy.
Enslaving the negro as long as they could
they do not hesitate now to seek political
power by deceiving him in the South and by
denouncing him in the North.
Mr. Seymour on the Stamp.
Therb is a certain line of conduot marked out
for Presidential cindidates which has come
down to us as the etiquette of a campaign, and
which has never been encroached upon. Ori
ginating in the good old days in which we had
none but gentlemen for nominees, it has Wash
ington, the elder Adams and Jefferson for its
fathers, and has never been deviated from.
One of the cardinal rules of this etiquette is,
that candidates for that high office shall not
stump the country in their own behalf; that
throughout the campaign they shall preserve
a dignified silence, and let their followers de
scant on their merits and announce their prin.
ciples. In this there is no real deprivation.
The intimacy existing necessarily between the
candidate and his leading supporters en
ables him to dictate all their actions
and utterances, and merely use them as
a mouthpiece to say for him what
custom and delicacy prevent him saying for
himself. We therefore regret that, it
seems probable, that Mr. Horatio Seymour in
tends to throw aside the well-established aud
proper custom, and to set out on a new line of
conduct chalked out for himself. So far he has
made several speeches, and written a letter
which is in extremely bad taste. The latest of
these orations is one addressed yesterday to
some soldiers who gathered in front of his
hotel and threw up their hats. In it he makes
a bid directly and openly for the soldiers' vote
He repeats the old and stale story about his
issuing commissions as if there was any merit
in a Governor issuing commissions when
the law requires him to do so.
Upon the ground that thousands of
commissions bear his autograph he demands
the soldiers' vote. Curious reasoning I Strange
basis on which to solicit suffrage I If none
better oan be found than the discharge of a
duty prescribed by law, we fear the appeal
will fall unheeded on the ears of the veterans,
lias Mr. Seymour any other claims than those
he set forth t We might naturally take it for
granted that if he had he would have pleaded
them himself, and as he has not we may assume
that none others were at his control. But
looking over his history for ourselves, oan
we detect any ? Do not all his actions, on
the contrary, go to alienate him from the sol
diers ? Mr. Seymour was throughout the
war a peace Demoorat. In the discharge of
an obligation which left him no alternative he
issued commissions, but all his actions and al1
his words showed too plainly which way his
sympathies tended. Had the people been
asked to appoint a commission from the
North, with power to represent absolutely
their interests in a convention, would any
loyal and sane man have thought of trusting
Horatio Seymour with that power ? We pre
dict that none would have done so. Ten
thousand others could have been named at
once in preference to him. Yet we are now
asked, and the soldiers are now asked to give
the highest ofiloe, the representative office of the
nation,toaman whom we would not have dared
to trust out of sight during the days of
war. Can we place our honor in
such hands, knowing as we do
nothing of the future ? When we think of the
general distrust of Mr. Seymour eo prevalent
six years ago, and of the unlimited and well,
merited confidence reposed in his competitor,
we cannot allow ourselves to doubt the result.
The soldier .who fought with Grant and won
with Grant, cannot be moved by the soft utter
ances of a wily politician who never held their
aotions other than as misguided enthusiasm,
and whose only claim on them is that his
official autograph is attached to a number of
New York commissions.
Tub Cork Ceop. It is a cause of general
remark among those who have travelled
through the eastern portion of Pennsylvania,
and, indeed, through all parts of the Keystone
State, that the amount of corn which has been
put in this year is far in excess of that of any
previous crop. In some portions of the conn
try we have seen field after field covered en
tirely with a splendid yield of corn. The
reason for this is to be found, in a great mea
sure, in the unfortunate fate of last year's
potato crop. The rot so prevalent then de
stroyed bo large a proportion and caused suoh
heavy loss as to lead to a reaction this year,
aad fear of another failure induced the over
abundanoe of corn. The crops are also re
markably large, and the promise is of a surfeit
at the expense of the potatoes.
Tub Cattlb Placoh. There is very general
alarm in New York, and to a certain extent
in our own city, also, in regard to the exist
ence of the cattle plague among the various
droves which come to the cities. We think,
however, to a great extent, that this alarm
is premature in Philadelphia, as we have had
as yet no symptoms of the disease. The New
York papers, however, have caused a panic,
and the strictest sanitary measures have been
taken to guard that city. By order of the
Board of Health, all the diseas id animals have
been taken and boiled into tallow. Over
this there was much joy. But it was Boon
turned to heaviness. The New York Sun,
after announcing the unlvoral satisfaction
cai-fctd by tLv Uiliu m vu'a oi the afflicted
aalmala, takes away some of the Joy by
quietly Baying:
"Rut lot tin look Into thU matter a little far-,
ther. These fat, diseased cattle, we are told, are
rendered Into tallow. Now, wo wish to Inquire
what Is done wllb this tallow? We believe It
Is mnde Into soap. The Soup la used for wnsblng.
our lemons aod our clothes. Tuns, while wo
iet rid of the diseased beef, no fur as eating It
poos, we rover ourselves all over with the sub
tiHtice of these in cattle with their aore in
the form of eoap."
Putting things in this light will have a yet
more disagreeable effect. Instead of abstain
ing from beef they wiii abstain from soap and
water the result of whioh will probably be a
little more disastrous to the publio health
than if they had eaten the oattle plague aud
all.
Jonw Minor Botts has beon pumped by a
Brooklyn reporter, and bis view obtained. The
enter; rixlDg Jenkins tells ns how he obtrude!
himself upon the Hon. Bolts, at the Turkish
Baths In Brooklyn, when he had "Just risen
from bis siesta, aud was In slippers, without
vest, and suspenders off from his shoulders."
Though caught In this p'lght, Mr. B Hts at onoe
proceeded to give his views on politics, recon.
sti notion, Southern loyalty, tie Presidential
election, the Demooratio pirty, ami the Blair
family. "The Ideas he expressed," say the
New York Times, "are a good ileal more sensi
ble than those ho has lately nttered wben In
full dress," On the whole. Bjtts Is laollned to be
hopeful. He thought that "we shall have no
open war In any event, and if Oram Is elected
by an Imposing vote, as he probably will a 1
Should be, we shall havea pretty quiet time In
the future; but If Seymour should o me so nor
to It as to give encouragement to their ambi
tious hopes of ultimate Bucoes, wa shill hive
In the South wh-U will be far worse than open
war, whioh can be put down at oace and forever.
We shall probably have a great disturbance of
the public peace, publio prosperity greatly re
tarded, and good fellowship between the differ
ent sections and among ourselves lndodnltoly
postponed."
An Unsavory Bubjaot. a. New Hampshire
paper says: "A Demooratio party paper In
Concord takes exception to General Abbott,
late of that city, and now United States Senator
from North Carolina, on account of what his
moral conduct was when he dwelt In Concord
And this Is done to show up Abbott as a speci
men of Republican carpet-boggets returned to
Congress from the South. But do the managers
ot that paper remember what was Frank
Pierce's moral status in Concord before he went
to the United States Senate by the vole of the
Demooratio part? or remember why he was
lnduoed by his best friend on earth to resign
and come home? or what were the habits of his
wbole life up to a recent date? Is this ot the
past? Even so: and so Is their story of Abbott.
Bnt then, do they know anything of General
Blair's present conduct and habits? and are
they aware that be Is their nominee for the
Vice-Presidency? Surely they must be; and,
therefore, they should be careful how they
throw atones."
Toor Gkeelet! The New York Times has
the following thrust at the philosopher of the
Iribune: "The publio will be interested to
know that Mr. Horace Greeley has ttken up
bis residence In a modest coun ry church with
out a steeple! At least so we learn from the
Tribune, whioh gives place to a correspondent's
account of Mr. Greeley's dwelling-place at
Chappaqua, and from which we learn that the
writer, in approaching the locality, saw a range
of bills, mostly wooded, and a valley two hun
dred feet deep, and then (says he), 'having de
scended Into this valley we stopped at a cream
colored house, conspicuously neat but not pre
tending. A modest country church, without a
steeple, is al the next door. This is Mr. Greeley's
residence.' We are at a loss to know why the
interesting edifice Inhabited by Mr. Greeley is
'without a steeple,' and we should really like
to know whether he carries on 'stated preach
ing in it."
Thk "Reaction." It is said that the War
Democrats of New York City are about holding
a preliminary meeting for the purpose of effect,
ing a thorough and Independent organization
to support General Grant. They are greatly
alarmed at the present aspect of affairs, and
are by no means prepared to go back upon their
war record, and Ignore all that they have done
by supporting Seymour and Wade Hampton,
and contributing their votes and means to in
augurate anarchy and another civil war.
Among those engaged In the movement are
fome of the leading War Demoorr ts of the city.
What the President will Do. The New
York Herald's Washington despatch to day
says: "The question as to whioh side President
Johnson will espouse In the Presidential con
test seems to be settled at last in favor of Sey
mour and Blair, Mr. Johnson's private opinions
on the Bubject have been difficult to get at, but
there teems to be no doubt of his Intention to
throw the weight of his Influence in favor of
the Demooratio candidates. The President con
siders that principles, and not men, should be
the study ot all patriots in the present orlals.

OBITUARY.
George II. Vbomaa.
In 1816 the attention of certain American
gentlemen was directed to the superior work of
mi English artist in Paris, who was there
emplojed to illustra'e a scries of popular boots.
Struck with tbe bulJaesn and vigor of bis work,
he was encaged to come to America, lie re
mained here two years, doiig work lor the illus
trated papers, and finally ob'.uiuiug employment
as a cosigner of bunk note. It was in this
work that he at once distinguished himself,
here, by the fJnit.li and beauty of his
drawings. Duiiug the two years ol hU stay In
th'B country he made many friend, and his
talents won for him tbe esteem of all who took
nu interest id tbe iinporlaut art ol engraving.
1)1 health, however, compelled Mr. Ttioium to
return to Kugliiud, where he liumeliately com
menced that ieries of pictures in the liiualra ed
London itws, whicb in accuracy aud dulictcy
opened a new held iu newspaper Illustration..
Ills subsequent coutribulious to the same sheet
while iu Italy, ot vivid sketches of tbe principal
episodes in the biege ot Home, will be plettsuutly
teiiiembtrcd by his friends here. Tbose draw
ings were of sulliclent merit to attract tbe
attention ot her Majesty, aud he soon after
received several somuiisslons to delineate
events of the time In which tbe yueeu or tbe

than ever his rare pewer ot expressing charac
ter. Home of tbe best known, at they are the
most artistic ot bis works for publishers, are
tbe (ketches made to Illustrate Mrs. Htowe's
"Uncle Tom's Cabin." Indeed, in this specialty
of book-illustrating he had few rivals. Mr.
Thomas also executed a number of admirable
woiks in oil. most of which were historical or
rational subjects, and painted expressly for her
Majesty. It was, however, in his pencil sketches
that he ejcel'ed, many of them belnfc perfectly
marvellous for their delicacy, freedom of touch,
and extraordinary truth to nature, llo wai
at the height of his fame when an aocldent
occurred which iomOUh'iy interfered with his
labors, and ultimately led indirectly to his
death. This was a fall from a horse by which
he suffered concussion of tbe brain, tie con
tinued to work, but with impaired faculties, loag
after, bnt finally went to Boulogne with his wife
and children to recruit his strength, and in that
place he died on the 21st of July list. Mr.
Thomas was an industrious and modest gentle
man, wlioe genius was not more conspicuous
In bis labors than was his coolness; and during
his short sojourn In this conn'ry be male many
warm fiicnds who will bz grieved to hear of his
death.
