General Dix and the Democrncj.
From the if. Y. Timet.
The St. Loais Republican Ir'wn to break the
force of General bis' 1-iUer by saying that
General Dix has not aoied with the Demo
cratic psrty proper tince the war bpgan In
1861 " That ia perfectly true. From the
moment the war began, General Dix has been
on the aide of his country; and of coarse he
eonld not aot with the Deruooratij party
proper. That party was either actively aiding
the Rebellion In the flld, or giving it aid and
comfort by its political action at the North.
It was opposing the Government denounc
ing the war as unjust and unconstitutional
resisting the draft assailing the public
credit, and in every conoeivable way crippling
Its endeavors to suppress the Rebellion. As
a matter ot course, General Dix did not act
with it.
Hot was there any love lost between the
General and the Democratic party. The
moment it was known that he would stand by
the country, the party threw him overboard,
lie no longer had its confidence. lie had goae
over to the enemy, and his name was dropped
from the Democratio record. Precisely the
Same thing happened to him which happened
to every other Democrat when he refused to
countenance the Rebellion, and upheld the
Government in making war upon it; he ceased
to aot with the "Democratic party proper;"
he bad to go outside its limits to get recogni
tion and a chance to serve the country, lie
either acted with some new organization, or
else openly joined the Union ranks. The
"party proper" would have nothing more to
do with him, nor does it to this day.
The Republican is right, therefore, in saying
that General Dix has not acted with the Demo
cratio , party proper since the war began in
1801. Yet in another article the same paper
Bays that General Dix abandoned the party
proper and "went over to the enemy" the
moment he lost the nomination t Uow could
that be, if he had never acted with it sinoe
1861 1
Besides, who ever heard that he was a can
didate for the nomination f Who ever dreamed
that the Democrats would adopt him as their
representative ? lie was talked of in 1864,
and was pressed by some Democrats who
hoped to save ' the party from utter destruc
tion by bringing it to the side of the Union,
liut the effort failed. The Democratic) party
was too much under Rebel and Copperhead
influence to listen to any suoh suggestion. It
Toted the war a "failure," and nominated the
man who had done the most to make it so.
The temper and spirit of the Democratio party
proper is now precisely what it was then.
Suffrage and the States.
From the IV. Y. Time.
The Louisville Journal expends much angry
rhetorio on an alleged purpose of the Republi
cans to foroe negro suffrage on all the States by
Congressional enactment. "Under the four
teenth artiole," the Journal asserts, "the party
unanimously and avowedly claims the power
of Congress to establish negro suffrage in all
the States;" and it adds:
"The Congressional esi a'ilshin ent of negro suf
frage in ell tbe utiivconairucied Htatea In gene
ral, and in Kentucky and Maryland and Dela
ware In particular. Is the Ilxed policy of ttie
radical party. It Is Colfax's policy. It Is tbe
policy of tde cont rolling wins of tbe party. It
Is tbe policy of tbe party. It Is Grant's policy.
It Is tbe policy of tbe wbole concern. Aud
Grant's flection will be tbe signal fortbeexe
cutlon of tbe policy. Men of lUe Nort h, If you
want tbe policy executed, give tbe signal. If
you wish lit pro sulIrKe forced upon you, elect
Grant. His election will nssure tbe speedy grati
fication of your wish. Tbe forcing of negro suf
frage ou Kentucky and Maryland and Delaware
and tbe wbole North will follow Grant's election
as the nlgbt tbe day."
It is hardly necessary to say that the Four
teenth amendment is not, and never has
been, regarded by the Republican party as
conferring on Congress the power which the
Journal says it is about to claim. The whole
Learing of the amendment on the question of
Buursge is connned to tbe reduction of repre
sentation as a penalty of disfranchisement on
account of race or color. Under thli pro
vision, when the next apportionment is made,
Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware may find
their representative power lessened in conse
quence of the exclusion of their colored citi
zens; bat beyond this, the new artiole can
have no soope.
Equally untrue is it to allege that the Re
publican policy involves an invasion ot the
rights of States which have never been out of
the Union. The Chioago platform is explioit
on the subject. It properly sustains the au
thority of Congress over the suffrage in State3
whose constitutional rights were forfeited by
rebellion; but so far as the States not so com
promised are concerned, it fully recognizes
their exolusive jurisdiction over the luifrage
question. And this is now, as it always has
been, the view cherished by the party. A
small body of extremists have claimed for
Congress power over the subject, without the
slightest reference, however, to the Fourteenth
Amendment, which at the time had not been
adopted. But the pretension has never been
entertained by the Republicans in Congress,
and is flatly disclaimed in the platform ou
which the party stands. By that statement of
policy, ana not by the Inventions of its ene
mies, iet it be judged.
A Liar Without Shame.
From the N. Y. Tribune.
On the eve of the last Connecticut eleotion,
Horatio Seymour made a speech in whioh he
asserted that "more than $300,000,000 a year
have been wasted in order to uphold this
volicy of reconstruction;" and that we were
waving "more than $150,000,000 per annum te
maintain an army to keep the people of the
South in subjection."
It was then too late to refute these gigantio
falsehoods in time to break their force in that
election, but we dealt with them and their
author frankly and faithfully. He has never
retracted nor attempted to explain or justify
them. They were such falsehoods as no tole
rably intelligent man could have uttered with
out intending to deonive, unless be were by
partisan malignity rendered incapable of per
ceiving the truth. Even the "World Alinauao"
eufticed to expose aud refute them.
The Hon. David A. Wells, United States
Commissioner of Revenue, in his letter to the
Hon. W. B. Allison of July 15 laat, thus tes
tifies: 1 "WAR Department. The total disburse,

In the Hummer and fall of 1807, which Itrgely
and exceptionally nngmented tbe cost of trans
portation and subsistence,
"Ti e military appropriations for the current
llscnl year are t33.0Sl,013."
We have copied the whole of Mr. Wells'
statement under the head of "War Depart
ment," so that our readers may see how it
meets and confutes Seymour's falsehood. You
may choose to considers "Subsistence of In
dians," "Freedmen's Bureau," and "Raoou
Btructlon Expenses," fairly chargeable to the
current war aocount under Seymour's arraign
ment; so we will add them to the $50,713,410
that Mr. Wells considers the legitimate car
rent expenses of maintaining our army, and
we now have a total of $G2,C2S,GS0 not nearly
half the sum charged by (Governor Seymour as
the cost of "an army to keep the South in sub
jection;" whereas, all men do know that a
very large portion of these sixty-two millions
were expended in the North and West, but
especially in protecting our pioneers and
fighting Indians on the Plains aud in the
mountains.
And yet the World, in the face of this
crushing exposure, attempts to bolster up
Seymour as follows:
"Mr. Wells was Instigated to cook up his
figutes by Kepublloana, who feared t lie damag
ing effect of tiovernor Unyrnour'a statement
I ht tbe expenses of tbe War Department, tuls
venrwt'Uld amount to C150 000.000. Mr. Wells,
by taking merely tbe Hegls'er's account, and
omitting all refeieuoe to tbe Treasurer's ac
counts, eaMly made i he sum less. Mr. D;lm r
gives bo! b, and enables us to know the total,
which does not materially diHV-r from Uovernor
Seymour's statement. The War U'pirtment

mrptiflngly close. We suppose nobody will be
lardy enough to deny that there are two sets of
accounts, as Mr. Delruar states, nor that his
figures have been corieolly copied from the
books of each." ,
"The War Department cost," says the
World. Was that Governor Seymour's asser
tion 1 Did he complain of the 38,000,000
paid as bounties to our volunteers for their
services in pntting down tbe Rebellion f Or

uovernor beymour complain of these outgoes
as needless and improvident f Did he let his
hearers know that the money disbursed upon
the warrants of the War Department had so
largely been paid to satisfy just claims crow
ing out of the late struggle with armed Rebel
lion, or to construct publio works required by

Reader ! you know that somebody lies wiok
edly, villainously lies with regard to these
war expenditures. If we do, say so frankly 1

T hew I
From the N. Y. World.
The 'Jribune shows muoh less judgment and
gocd senBe in its manufacture of Rebel out
rages than the Herald in its manufacture of
telegrams from Europe. The Camilla "mas
sacre" was a wretched bit of botchwork, which
leu into pieces as soon as we touched it with
the stdus of truth. A long story from Texas
hich appeared in Tuesday's Tribune, over
tbe appropriate initials W. II. E. W., is no
better, it is an about an unknown person.
evidently a well-to-do Loyal Leaguer, who has
been hearing the most dreadful stories of
murder and rebellion In Texas from carpet'
baggers bent on "raising a small loan."
Oiie of these carpet-baggers "in search of a
Government position" assured our confiding
friend that in "one town in Texas was a de
tachment of United States colored soldiers
who were being killed off at the rate of one a
day, and nobody could tell who killed them."
As this was "just at the close of the war,"
we infer that the aforesaid "detachment"
must have been pretty well killed off by this
time; and we respectfully suggest that Gene
ral Grant has singularly neglected his duty in
suffering so dark a deed to be covered up for
so long a time from the publio eye.
Another carpet-bagger "who asked for a
donation of books" induoedthe open-hearted
W. H. E. W. to believe that unless the said
books were forthcoming the "poor whites
would murder all the negroes." Still another,
who was a "member of the New Orleans loyal
convention, brought good letters, and was a
beggar," . endeavored to get live dollars in
return for the valuable information, that "be
cause he had treated his negroes like men his
neighbors burned his buildings, killed one of
his hands, and allowed him to tsoape with his
life only." And this dreadful cafe of arson,
complicated with murder, W. U. E. W. has
for two years kept to himself without breath
ing a word of it to Judges, juries, policemen,
or the General of the army I Did he keep it
as security for his small loau ? And has he
now surrendered it to the J ribune iu return
for a cash discount of his friend the "loyal
beggar's" I. O. U. f
fctill another, "a Georgia mau in the United
States employ," secured an houest penny in
exchange for the startling assertion that he
"knew one hundred and sixty loyal men who
had been killed in .one county near where he
lived sinoe the war." This dreadful fact.it
seems to us, might have been properly enough
mentioned by W. II. E. W. at the time when
be heard it, if not to the "authorities," at
least to the public press We are sure there
is no well-conducted newspaper office in New
York in which any mau would fail to be
handsomely remunerated for bringing in a
well-authenticated "item" so brilliaut and
so sensational as this. A hundred and sixty
murders rolled into one 1 Why it would
command a higher market price thau a whole
stamptde of two-keaded butTalo calves, or six
average earthquakes in Oquawka 1 Compare
now with such weak inventions as these
the solid, Bober-slded, substantial telegrams
of the JJerald in regard to Europe 1 When
the cable aunounces, for instance, that the
"rebels are at Corunna," the Herald quietly
takes a reliable Enoyolopwila and makes up
a special despatch "from our representative
in London," which really oontains a great deal
of Interesting though not absolutely novel in
formation about the geographical position of
Corunna about its probable foundation by
the l'Lunioians, about its population aud in
dustry, and about the battles fought there ia
the past, winding up with a striking though
perhaps somewhat familiar composition by
the late Mr. Wolfe, on the death aud burial
pf the English General Sir John Moore, who,
having fallen in battle with the French before
Corunna, was buried by bis troops
"Darkly, at dead of night,
The sod with nnr hnvonpts tnrnlns:
I3y the misty moonbeamss atrugllnj light, .
And tbe lanterns dimly burnlug "
How muoh better is this sort of thing thiu
the Tribune's hasty and heavy contribution
to popular misinformation I It is Just aslikoly,
in the first ' place, that the readers of the
Herald will believe its telegrams to have come
over the Atlantic at the rate of five dollars a
word, as that the Tribune's readers will believe
in the wonderful words of W. 11. K. W. I And
then the Herald's telegrams, in the second
place, may. by the Divine grace, be made the
means of cvnreying some dim notion of geogra
phy and history both to the Herald stall' who
compile them aud to the casual unfortunates
who may peruse them. Whereas the tribune's
"special news from the South" id at once
revolting for its incredible absurdity and sure
to poison any man's mind who reads it.
It would be much wiser for the ribune,
from now till the Pennsylvania election, to go
back to its own old files and reproduce the
Kansas bloody shirts of 185(3. These "gar
ments rolled in blood" were vastly better
made and better dipped than the shoddy
articles whioh thou at present wavest before
the rural and radical mind's eye, Horatio I
Stanton's Speech and Its Omission?.
Ft om the iV. Y. Herald.
' When ex-Secretary of War Stanton addressed
his friends and fellow-citizens of Ohio, near
Steubenville, the other day, in the centre of
the agricultural distriot which surrounds the
bridge uniting the Buckeye State with West
Virginia, he said a good mauy excellent things;
but he left a good many other things unsaid,
which may be regarded as of some importance
in the history of the war whioh he apparently
attempted to illustrate in his discourse. For
example, he did not say anything about the
outrages upon the rights and liberties of
citizens, directed by himself and carried out
under his instructions during his term of
office. He was solemnly silent about the num
bers of American citizens locked up in Fort
ress Monroe, Fort Lafayette, and Fort
Warren, without warrant or without
any charge of crime being registered
Against them. He had no explanation to
give about these matters, but skimmed
them over as gracefully as a swan goes over
the water. In the same way he skilfully
avoided telling by what intrigues he prooured
the office of Secretary of War, or to what extent
he cheated and deceived everybody in order to
keep himself in that position so long, despite
the will of the Executive and the desire of the
people. Now, all these lntle revelations would
have given considerable zest to Mr. Sunton's
speech, because the publio would naturally
like to hear by what means,aud more especially
for whit purpose, he kept the authority of the
Executive at bay, and only condescended to
acknowledge the existence of General Lorenzo
Thomas, the President's appointee to the War
Department, by inviting him to take a drink,
while he kept the key of the War Department
archives in his pocket, and defied the authority
of the President. None of this, although
people would be delighted to hear the fairy
tale from the lips of its author.
Mr. Stanton gives in this speech a Homerio
picture of the services and valor of the generals
engaged ia tbe war. He forgets that the publio
were as watohful observers of their career as
Secretary Stanton, and know just how to allot
to each their full modicum of praise for ser
vices well rendered to the republic. What Mr.
Stanton omits to explain in his speech is the
reason why so many private citizens were
seized and incarcerated by his order while he
was Secretary of War, upou what charges
they were so incarcerated, and a minute de
scription of the pains, penalties, and indigni
ties they were compelled to suffer at his dires
tion. This would have made the most inte
resting speech of tbe campaign if these points
were supplied, and there is no one so compe
tent to deliver such a discourse as ex-Secretary
Stanton himself. The chief Jesuit among
political Jesuits, the feeble but mischievous
imitator of Machiavel, aspiring to the rank
without possessing the qualities of the bold,
bad Italian politician, Mr. Stanton has at
tempted to follow the Machiavellian policy,
forgetting that the atmosphere was wholly un
congenial for the growth of suoh a plant.
He undertook to grapple With the press, but
he took hold of the irresponsible subordinates
and dared not touch the principals. Reporters
were the game he sought ' for the exercise of
his spite. The proprietors of leading journals
which did not sustain the weakness and cor
ruption of the War Department he may have
threatened, but did not attempt to punish.
Now. to have said bo muoh in his late stump
speech about the war and the generals who
fought it out so gallantly, whioh everybody
knew before, and not to say a word about all
these facts which we have indicated, must be
regarded as a grave sin of omission on the part
of Air. btanton.
The Contest in Pennsylvania.
From the National Intelligencer,
We repeat what we stated in our issue of
Monday, that our intelligence from l'ennsylva
nia is of tbe most cheering oharaoter. There
is no variation in the aooouots that reach us
from our friends there, and they warrant the
expectation that on the 13th of October next
the conservatives will achieve a signal and
overwhelming triumph. The Demooracy of the
old Keystone are fairly aroused; they are at
work all over the State, and the calculation of
Mr. Cameron that our vote will not be out
will not in the end prove to be any wiser thau
that of the man who built his house upon the
sand.
The conservatives of Pennsylvania have
now before them the noblest opportunity
offered to men since the days of the American
Revolution. The glorious heritage of liberty
then won by the valor and sacriuce of their
Revolutionary fathers is now in jeopardy. It
is for them to say whether we fchall enjoy the
priceless blessing of a free Constitution, or
whether the country shall ba handed over to
the foulest, the most corrupt, and degrading
of despotisms, compared with which even that
of Russia or Turkey would be resectable.
The radical leaders have basely conspired
gainst this system of constitutional liberty,
and they demand the right t perpetuity of
oflice and plunder by entranchislug negroes
and keeping hundreds of thousands of white
men from the polls. In the three States of
West Virginia, Missouri, and Tennessee there
are two hundred thousand white men not
allowed to vote in the Presidential election.
Some time aco, the Tribune, that chosen
sheet of hatred, murder, aud 'cant, called at
tention to the Pennsylvania campaign, and
raised a hypooritioal outorv that the Demo
cracy of that State contemplated frauds. None
who know the nature of Greeley can doubt his
objects and purposes when he raises the cry of
"stop thief." We felt sure at onoe mat tne
Republican leaders were alarmed for Pennsyl
vania, and that, conscious of defeat, there
would be a mortal blow to all their hopes, the
end to their Infamous reign of plunder, cruelty.
and blood, they had resolved on a wholesale
system of fraud, and had raised this ory merely
to divert suspicion. tJince then we have re
ceived direct information from a Republican
source that this plan is contemplated by the
leaders, and that upon this alone they base
their hopes of carrying the State in a contest
which they concede to be doubtful. In order
to this end we have learned from another
Foorce that the radual leaders have called
what they term.a Soldiers' Convention early
in OotoWr in Philadelphia. Sjiu4 few soldiers
who really served in th war will probably be
present, and a great many more non-combatants,
who will wear blue cloth, probably, for
the first time in their lives; men like Greeley
aud Forney, very valorous in times of peao,
aud ready to slay any number Of dead reroys.
Both the pickpookets and the newly-oolonizdd
voters are expected to find protection in the
crowd, ani to accomplish this fraud the manu
facturers have put up large sums of money.
They can well afford the outlay if they win.
Put all this, we believe, will be in vain.
There are times, when great prluciples of
liberty and publio safety and order are at
stake, that the vo'ce of the people baoomes,
indted, like the voice of God a power for
truth, for good, for humanity, aud virtue,
against which corruption and fraud dashes
itself in vain. , Such is emphatically the pre
sent situation. This is "a poor man's fight"
against the banded thieves and oppressors who
head the Congressional despotism; and the
latter, with their allies, will go down in the
dust before the energy of the workingmen of
the country.
"Forewarned, forearmed." Friends of
liberty, the Constitution, and reform, in Penn
sylvania, see to it that your majority In Octo
ber Is so large that all the frauds and villa-
nies of your opponents will be in vain. Put
Into this struggle two weeks of earnest effort,
all your might, all the power that belongs
to a just and righteous cause, and your vic
tory will be beyond all question a blessing
ror generations to your posterity, and to
those who wait on your endeavors throughout
the country
