Slander Refuted.
Tebbi U a Democratic sheet known aa the Age.
Owe readers are probably not familiar with
IU pages, eren if its name be known to
them. We would not intrude it upon their
attention at present, were it not for the fact
that the slanderous article for whioh the New
York World yesterday held ns responsible
Laa found its way into the columns of the Age,
Although we explicitly stated yesterday after
noon that no such language concerning Gene
ral Tyndale had ever appeared ia our
columns, the Age follows the leal of the
World, and maliciously insists that we are
the originator of the slander. The Age knows
that there is no truth in this assertion; it
also knows the name of the petty sheet in
which the Blander first appeared. But
it is desirous of putting a responsible
name to a downright fabrication, and then of
launching it upon the sea of politics, hoping
thus to be able to inflict serious injury upon
the charaoter and prospeots of Qeneral Tyn
dale. The devioe is one of the meanest to
whloh the Democratic party of this city hare
been obliged to resort in order to make a re
spectable fight for retaining the ground whloh
they were permitted to oooupy a year ago
through the apathy of the Republican party
Coffee-grounds, slander, and falsehood go well
together, and are fitting instruments in the
hands of the Hampton-Democracy for advan
cing the interests of Seymour and Blair. But
we ezpeot to see them discomfited despite all
suoh reprehensible expedients.
The slander to which the Age gives ourrency
nnder suoh dishonorable oiroumstanoes runs
aa follows:
"Boine time slno, la the presence of some
company In Mr. Tyndale'e own pirlor, atten
tion was directed to a likemes of John IJrowa
whloh graoed the walls Iu the course of con
vernaUm General Tynrtnle emphatically re
marked: 'That man,' pointing to Jodu Brown's
plolure, 'twas abetter mm thin Jesus Christ' As
some of our radical friends have denied this
charge, nod others will doubtless do the same,
we now openly declare our ability to prove lis
truthfulness beyond tue possibility of dlsDute,
and call upon Mr. Tyndale to answer It, yes
or no."
We are prepared and authorized to meet it.
By General TyndaWs direct authority, we say
that it is a lie from beginning to end. No such
words ever fell from his lips, and no portrait of
John Dtownhas ever "graced the walls" of his
parlor, or of any other room or apartment in At
house. Are the World, and the Age, and the
author of the slander satisfied with the refu
tation r
That Tery "white" Boy in Blue, yclept
John A. McClernand, whose military reoord
presents a continued series of failures, was at
one time not quite so deeply imbued with the
prinolples of the Hampton-Democracy as he is
at present. lie declared, in a very loud
mouthed fashion, with a slight touoh of blas
phemy in his words, that the leaders of the
Rebellion "have been guilty of the mo3t stu
pendous crime perpetrated since the cruci
fixion of our Saviour." But the gallant
General was led to take a different view o'
their monstrous offense by the manner in
whioh they received him on the field
of battle. The soldiers who could put McCler
nand to rout could not be other than saints
of the first water, redolent with the odor of
holiness. Hence, as soon as the smoke of the
ooniliot is cleared away, and McClernand is per
mitted to see just where he stands, he hastens
to join the ranks of the men whom he so
vilely slandered. Having never achieved a
victory on the field of battle, he takes a diffe
rent view of the crime of rebellion, regards
the war as a failure, believes negro slavery to
be a divine institution, favors the repudiation
of the national debt, prates volubly about the
beauties of a white man's government, and
goes for Seymour and Blair with all the lit
tleness of soul of whioh he is possessed. As
a "white" Boy in Blue he is unexceptionably
a model.
Tub New York World has oonceived the
brilliant idea that Seymour will be cheated out
of his election. Referring to the unrecon
structed and unrepresented States of Virginia,
Mississippi, and Texas, the World is anxious
to know whether their votes, whioh will not
be received at all events, are to be counted in
making np the total of the Eleotoral College.
If they are to be so counted, the total will be
317, requiring 159 to eleot; if they are not so
oounted, the total will be but 2!4, and only
143 will be necessary to aohoice by the people.
Now the World is quite well assured that, if
General Grant receives 148 votes and no more,
the question will not be raised, and he
will be duly declared elected by the Rump
Carpet-Bag Congress. But the World is
greatly troubled lest Seymour should re
ceive preoisely 143 votes, in which event
has discovered that Congress will de
olare 159 neoessary to a ohoioe, and thus
throw the eleotion into the House of Represen
tatives. The World is getting itself into hot
water without cause. Horatio Seymour does
cot stand the ghost of a chanoe of receiving
143 votes. If he obtains one-third of that
number, Democracy will achieve as deoided a
triumph as it did in Maine, and will doubtless
be in a very amiable mood. But if Seymour
should reoeive 143, and no more, no sane man
believes that he will not be duly declared
eleoted. The Republican party is the party
lO? justice of "moral ideas," as the World
delights to say and will not at this late day
be guilty of repudiating its glorious reoord.
If Mr. Seymour should be thai oheated out of
his eleotion, the act would be a signal for the
renewal of our civil strife, and the standing
motto of our leader is "Let ns have peaoe 1"
Grnkbal William C. Wiokhah, one of the
Confederate leaders, repudiates in toto the
Hampton-Demooraoy, and deolares himself for
Grant and Colfax. He deolares his position la
the following sensible language:
"The election of Grant and Colfax I regard
the only meann of bringing baok prosperity to
tbe Southern Htales, by giving ns a speedy and
definite solution of all tbe difficult questions
tbat now embarrass us; while, on tne othT
band, I think tbe eleotion of Beymourand Blir
would, by upsetting all tbat has been already
settled by tbe Reconstruction acts, and by giv
ing new bope to tbe dUunlon party, whloh 'is
not dead, but sleepeth,' bring upon ns fresh dis
quietude, and, by keeping alive Issues of race
and section, Involve us In further disasters."
General Wickham is a trne friend of the
South. He appreciates fully the gravity of
the situation, recognizes the fact that disaster
and ruin are as certain to follow the eleotion
of Seymour end Blair as darkness the setting
of the sun, believes that the eleotion of
Grant is the only road to peaoe, union, and
prosperity; aud henoe, like a gallant soldier
fairly beaten in a square and open fight, is
willing and anxious to put aside the past, and
to contribute all in his power towards the
pacification of the oountry at large and the
happiness and welfare of his own people in
particular. In this he shows himself to be as
wise a man and as true a patriot as Ling
street, and a better friend to the South than
the whole array of Blairs, Beauregards, Hin
cocks, Forrests, MoClernands, and Hamptons
combined.
Jobn II. Sdrratt was at last turned loose
upon the world again yesterday afternoon by
Judge Wylie, of the Criminal Court at Wash
ington. This time his discharge is uncondi
tional, and he is henceforth a free man, and
can come and go without molestation, unless a
new indictment should be found against him.
This termination to the almost interminable
prosecution of the last of the assassination
conspirators is quite as satisfactory as we
could expeot, and in all probability the most
auspicious that could be secured. He would
never have been convicted by a Washington
jury of any offense, unless that jury were a
packed one. So it is better that he should be
set at liberty without further attempts at
bringing him to justioe, although the new tes
timony which has been seoured would doubt
less have removed the slightest teohnical diffi
culty in the way of conclusively establishing
his guilt. Whatever a Washington jury of
Rebel sympathizers may say to the oontrary,
Surratt goes out into the world branded with
a participation in the most revolting orime of
the century. More than this, his heartless
desertion of his mother in the hour of her
peril proclaims him the most degenerate of
sons. Altogether, his punishment is suffi
ciently great, and justioe fully vindicated.
Maine has done nobly. The official returns
of the vo'.e at the recent State eleotion are now
nearly all in, and a Republican majority of
20,404 is shown beyond all Democratio cavil.
This gives a Kepubllcan tnorease on the
majority alone of nearly 9000. If Pennsylva
nia will do half as well in October, the
November eleotion will be a mere matter of
form. We hope the Democracy will not take
the official returns from Maine too much to
heart. They have persisted from the first in
declaring that the Republican majority would
not exceed 15,000. An addition of 5000 votes
on a majority is quite as significant as would
be the lengthening of a man's nose by an
inch.
Tub Happy Fahilt. The impolicy of sup
porting Seymour when he has no ohanoe of an
election has caused no small amount of quar
relling in the happy family at the White
House. The black spirits and white, blue
spirits and gray, who compose that heteroge
neous body known as the Cabinet, got np a
sort of dance, at its last meeting, around the
political caldron. From all aooounts it
seems that Schofield and Sohenok are pro
nounced in favor of Grant, that Welles and
Randall are in favor of Seymour, that Evarts
is not known as yet, but will probably favor
Grant, and that the President is for the great
Horatio. At any other time, and nnder any
other Administration, suoh a differenoe would
have caused a dissolution, but the mongrel
elements which go to make np Johnsonianism
cannot afford to separate until the quarter day
on the 4th of March next.
Thb Democracy have been shouting over
Colorado, but they failed to wait nntil they
were out of the woods. The complete returns
are now in, and the Republican candidate for
delegate to Congress is eleoted by a majority
of 79 not very large, but decidedly better
than the election of his opponent. The gains
in Colorado seem to resemble those of Maine.
Tub Assessors meet on Wednesday, Thurs
day, and Friday of next week to make up the
extra assessment list. Every citizen should
personally see that his name is not omitted.

Thankful fob Small Favors. Not long
since quite a serious disturbance arose in the
Boulevard St. Michel, Paris. The polios made
arreBts, as a matter of course, and the affair
came before a tribunal, whioh, in deoiding
the caBe, deolared that the ory of " Vive La Lan
ternel" is not an aot of sedition. This was
altogether unexpected, for the Government
has found in M. Roohefort such a formidable
antagonist, and in his sarcastic effusions so
much of a charaoter whioh threatens the sta
bility of the Empire, that it has been foroed
to rescrt to the most extreme measures against
him. With a heavy fine and a long imprison
ment hanging over him, he has been obliged
to take reluge in Brussels, where La Lanterne
is still issued, and whenoe it contrives in ft ml
its way by thousands into the French capital, i
despite the vigilance of the police and the sur
veillance of the malls. It was this view of the
case whloh led V Opinion Nationals to exolatm,
"Thank God for this t" when it was announoed
by one of Napoleon's judioial tools, that the
mere raising of the ory " Vive La Lanterns "
does not, aooording the latest revision of the
Code Napoleon, constitute in itself an act o
sedition. The liberal-minded Journalists o
Paris are so oompletely hemmed in on every
hand that they are rendered profoundly thank
ful for the smallest sort of favors.
The Democratio Science or Deception.
Thb Demooratio party bases its olaims to the
votes of the people on a tissue of misrepresen
tation, whioh in some cases goes so far as to
amount to positive falsehood. It presumes on
the ignoranoe of its followers, and they reoeive
with immeasurable credulity all the fabulous
statements made to them. In faot, they are
exoellently situated for just suoh deoeption.
They are out off from the grand channel of
oommunioating truth. Most of them are not
in danger of being oursed as disoiples of Faust.
rew of the Demooraoy can read. It requires
but the evidenoe of the senses to see it. In
all branches of business the supply is gra
dated exactly by the demand. In Philadelphia
there are eight Republican dailies to tw Demo
oratio. With suoh a field as this, the Demo
cracy do not hesitate to make faots suit
theories, and to delude with the most bare
faoed boldness the adherents of their party.
We propose to show that the deoeption is
systematic, and that it is the great oardinal rule
of aotion by whioh the opposition hope to carry
the campaign.
First. On the financial condition of the country
tey seek to deceive. The addresses published
by Mr. Wallace, Chairman of the Committee
on Coflee of that party, assert as faots figures
whioh are deliberately false. The old proverb
that figures cannot lie is shown to be an error
He tells his readers that the publio debt has
increased we think he saysone hundred and
forty millions since the close of the war;
that the Freedmen's Bureau costs something
fabulous, and that it is still increasing. Now,
the offloial reports of the Seoretary of the Trea
sury show a decrease of two hundred millions
since the final suppression of the Rebellion.
In this respeot, therefore, the system of deoep
tion is praotised.
Second. As to the laws of taxation. You
can read in any Demooratio paper, or hear
from any Demooratio orator, the assertion that
the bondholders escape from the payment of the
five per cent, income tax; that the rich men
who are receiving this Government tax in the
shape of interest do not pay to the Govern
ment anything in their inoomes. Now, this
is wilfully and maliciously false. Every form
of income, whether from Government loans or
any other class of property or security is taxed,
at five per cent, if it is between one thousand
and five thousand, and ten per cent, if it ex
ceeds five thousand dollars per annum. From
this rule no one is exempt. Thus in a most
glaring and evident manner is the science of
deception attempted.
Third. In regard to the condition of the
Southern Slates. This is a mmt uiu.i
means of deceit. The feeling existing between
the two seotions is suoh as to prevent any very
general knowledge of the state of the South
by actual observation. Therefore the
romancers of the Democracy give ns wonder
ful aooounts of the haloyon times in the late
Rebel territory. There is, if we oan believe
them, a state ol fraternal regard existing be
tween the late slaves and their late masters.
Trne, there is every now and then some
awkward evidenoe to overcome. 150 negroes
are killed in a single month, and this
must be explained away. To do this a
bold game is attempted. The White Sulphur
Springs and its oomedy of a convention is the
result. By a gigantio and systematized effort
is the real condition of the Southern States
sought to be concealed from the people of
the North. The Demooraoy fear the re
Bult if the truth should be known. The
warm heart of the Northern yeoman would
soon be beating in unison with the oppressed
Unionists, and a majority suoh as would
annihilate the party be the result. They
both falsify facts and originate statements.
To an art have they reduced the plan of
turning real events into an entirely different
channel of deductions than is allowed by
logic They appreciate the truth of Tenny
son's lines:
"A lie that is part the truth Is ever the blaofeest
of lies.
A lie tbat is all a lie oan be met and fought with
outright. ,
But a lie that Is part the truth Is a harder mat-
ter to tight."
It has been, however, an idle task, this
seeking to deoeive the people. Popular intel
ligence is too wide-spread. Popular knowledge
is too muoh extended to make a universal de
ception possible in this age and country. The
falsehood, if not seif-deteoting, is soon ferreted
out, and is soon nailed. The great body of the
Northern masses read faots through the filmy
curtain of miioonstructlon. They see the
act that hundreds of negroes are killed even
if there be peace at the South. They see the
fact that the printed inoome returns do no
exempt Government bonds. They see the fact
that the debt and the taxes have been de
creased, and they care not what unfair infer
ences the Demooraoy may draw. By a majority,
we predict, that will settle all hopes in thi
future of suooessful deoeit, the people will
evince their opposition to the party whioh,
building itself on popular Ignoranoe, is pressing
one step too far on popnlar credulity.

DOWN WITH THE LEAVES.
tsr(
The leaves are loosening from the trees,
And gently down are tumbling,
We bear tbe chilly autumn breeze
Among the forest rumbling.
The shivery equinoctial storm
Like distant thunder's mumbling,
Aus folks who like to have It warm,
Because of cold are grumbling.
Tbe leaves tbat linger on the trees
Are turning red aud yellow;
The pears and apples, If you please,
A re getting ripe and mellow.
We're singing pleasant autumn tunes,
Of nost, and or umbrellas.
Of autumn coats, aud psntaloons,
To comfort clever fellows,
Unlike tbe falling autumn leaves,
We try to move on, steady,
To where each thinking man believes
He'll find Fall Garments ready.
Or if we'd have them made, so neat,
According to our measure,
ROCK H ILL & WILSON, Chesnnt street.
Will lit ns out with pleasure.
The trees are getting their olotbes off, bat we need
to be getting ours on, for tbe Fall and Winter,
Let us get on
