' We) nnit first tell of the Bible Jonab, Jonah Ihe- Prophet. The word of the Lor4 came to thli Jonah to go down to the wicked oitjr of Nineveh, "and orj against it, tor their wick edneea is oome up betoie me." Bat Jonah ran away and went down to Jorpa, paid his fare, nd took passage on a ship bound for Tar Bhlah. ."But the Lord sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest," and the mariners were frightened and began to pray eaoh man to his god, and they light ened the ship by throwing the cargo over board. Bat they found Jonah "down into the sides of the ship, and he lay and was fast asleep." They roused him no and oast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah. Then they oross examined him, when he confessed to them that he was a carpet-bagger and a soalawag. "And he said unto them, take me up and oast me forth into the sea; bo shall the sea be calm unto yon, for 1 know that far my Bake this great tempest is upon you." Bat those were humane mariners, and not of the order of the Ku-Klux Klan. So they worked hard to save their reseel without sacrificing Jonah; but all to no purpose. Then says the inspired narra tive: 14. Wherefore they cried unto the Lord, We beseech Thee, O Lorn, we beseech Tuee, lot aa not perish for thin mn'n life, and lay not. upon us Innocent blood: lor Thou, O Lord, nasi done B8 It pleased Thee. "15. Bo they toot up Jonah and o ist him forth Into the sea, and Hie ea cutmeu from bur raging. "10. Then l he men feared the Lord exceed ingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the Lord, and made vowi. , ... , . "(In other words, they adopted a now plat- 0"17.'now the Lord had prepared a great 11 sh to swallow np Jonah. And Jonah was la the belly of the fish three days and three nlghta." How Jonah prayed unto the Lord "out of the fish's belly," how he was "vomited out on the dry land," how he went to Nineveh and preaohed acoordiug to his instructions, how the Ninevites repented and put on saokoloth and ashes and were saved, and how Jonah beoame "very angry" that the oity was not destroyed, and how he was brought to a better frame of mind by the leseon of the gourd vine, we seed not here repeat. Oar text is the fifteenth verse of the first chapter of the Bosk of Jonah: "Bo they took np Jonah and cant him forth Into the sea, and the ra ceased from her raging.'1 Now the Demooratio ship, bound for Tar shish or Salt River, is in the midst of a mighty tempest, but the mariners, instead of praying to their gods, are cursing and swearing at eaoh other and the captain and mate, Seymour and Blair, demanding, first, that both shall be thrown overboard. The captain is ready to deoline once more, bat the mate "don't see it." Be Is willing to do anything for the cause, but his instructions mast oome from the Demooratio party. Whereupon a certain clique of Egyptians and Bohemians in New York, having oast lots, say the lot has fallen upon the oaptain's mate, and they call out the mate by name, and denounce him as the Jonah of the ship, and they insist upon his being oast forth into the sea, no matter whether a great fish has or has not been pre pared to swallow him up. These mariners, after their fashion, have worked hard to save the vessel; but she has been striking among the rocks, she has sprung a leak, aud they know that for Blair's sake this tempest is upon them. Seymour is all right. Blair is the false prophet and the guilty fagitive from justice, and overboard he must go. Now, the manner whereby this man Blair was ooupled with Seymour was this; The "bloated bondholders" of Gotham and the East, having, by their cunning devices in the Tammany council chamber, made Seymour captain, on a new platform declaring certain acts of Congress "unconstitutional, revolu tionary, and void," oertain men of the West and the South said, as ye have so declared we name the valiant Boldier, Blair, as second in emmand, inasmuch as in your platform ye have adopted his Brodhead letter. Aud all the men assembled in Tammany under the idol of the big Indian said Amen. And then, rejoicing in their, work, with a mighty yell, like that of a Southern army, the Convention adjourned. The Egyptians aud Bohemians, followers of the Manhattan Club, however, would make the honest Blair the soapegoat or Jonah of the Tammany Convention. They oall upon Belmont and Lis assooiate high priests ot the temple to do this thing if Blair will not take the hint and leave. But will Blair, as a soapeooat or a Jonah, carry olT that revolutionary edict from the new Tammany book of Democraoy f No; but as that was the work of Wade Hampton he may withdraw It. Let it be so, and what then ? Then Hamp ton and his poBae will retire in disgust; then, while all the North go for Grant, all the South will go the Sbme way, and the Demooratio ship, as well as Jonah, this time will be oast upon the dry land. A Vigorous Fight. JrVom the Boilon Post. What encouragement the too exultant radi cal press may have derived from the falter ing tone of a single Democratic paper, it re luctantly finds ittelf obliged to surrender be fore the same could be made of any effect. The mere suggestion of a change of front has been scouted by the Democracy ef the country in a spirit that bet raj a anything bat demoralization or even doubt. The people's cause in their cause, aud it will finally triumph. The three great central States whioh have just tried their strength are by ne means radical States. Their Intelligent population are not ready yet to repudiate republican government in favor of a military dynasty for one-half of the country and the tyranny of a directory for the other half. The issues are more clearly comprehended by them than ever before. They are leaving the party that hat wickedly betrayed every trust, and flocking to the Demooratio stan dard of the Union an the Constitution. Pennsylvania can, with effort, m, wholly re deemed in November. Indiana is km. ready ' to give her verdict for the cause upheld T . the Democraoy. And Ohio otters no encour agement for her sister States, to the right and left of her, to confide auy longer in the broken pledges and empty professions of the party in power. . . i This light for the complete restoration of .constitutional principles must go on till it is ended in their triumph. There can be no such thing as compromise between those who would conserve and those who would detitroy the very groundwork' of free governmeul. The inoeutives to combined exertion for the salva .(ion of , snoh a government have by reoent events, been multipled fourfold. .Tha Viotory : we would snatoh Uoin thJS temporary defeat 4a . not for party, but (or the country and its free institutions. rWhile tsouihm , mm are re sponding in such sincerity to John Quiuoy "Adams as the leaders of public opinion are in . South Carolina, shall we relax tsiugie eif.rt . to re-estabUtth that equal Uuiou under the ' Constitution, which, as it is their heart' de .sirc, to it J the only permanent basis of peace? Should we be doing what we oan for the oause I to whioh we have solemnly devoted alt oar I endeavor, if, just when the cry for restoration is heard loudest from the South, we suffered our hands to fall at our sides, and yielded the round already gained by a timid faltering over the chanoes of sucoess f There is but one way to succeed, when a good and great oause is committed to our charge; having undertaken to defend it, we must defend it to the last. If the line or bat tle for an instant breaks in any part, olm it np and push on. RadioaHsin will not hesitatt to give way when it finds it has got to faoe tat people in serried ranks and solid col urn us. But it is the face that must be kept continu ally to the foe. The Demooratio candidates are true exponents of constitutional liberty and faithful representatives of that genuine freedom which is restrained by law alone. Let ns work with all our combined might for them until the 3d of November, feeling that in their triumph the American people will again vin dicate their rights, their liberties, and their high came. Tlic (Jentleiiiau's Candidate." From the N. T. World. Just as the 2 ribu ne declares itself to be a "gentleman's newspaper," Mr. Richard II. Dana, Jr., who is runnlug, or, to speak more exaotly, who is "marking time" against Gene ral Butler in the Essex district of Massachu setts, declares himself to ba a "gentleman's oandidate." Mr. Dana informs the publio that he is a gentleman "by lineage, by educa tion, and by position," and he evidently thinks this a good reason why the "Esfex distiict," which the Tribune pronounces "the most pure-blooded distriot in Amerioa," should send him to Congress. Now, we may frankly admit that, if the Essex people really are particular about having a gentleman for their representative, they must have small plea sure in being represented by General Butler, whose solitary merit in that respect is that, so far as we know, he has never yet pre tended to be a gentleman. But are the pre tensions which Mr. Dana does make any better founded than the pretensions whioh General Butler might make f A man, the copy-book tells us, is known by the company he keeps. What sort of company does this model "gentleman" of the most "pure-blooded district" appear in T At a publio meeting in Boston, held .the other night, and held in Fanenil Hall, Mr. Dana presented himself to the publio in company with Major-General Judson Kilpatrick. Simply to associate with a person like Major-General Judson Kilpatriok can hardly be a very agreeable thing for a "model gentleman." But our "model gentle man" was not content with associating with Major-General Judson Kilpatrick. lie listened to that person approvingly while he maun dered through a speech low and scurrilous even beyond the average of his speeches, and never manifested so much as a sign of disap proval when his "colleague," after tipsily affirming that "the Republicans would re write and doctor up the Constitution just so often as cironmatanoes should reuder it neces sary," went cn, the reporter tells us, to indulge In an anecdote flboat McClnlKn and the late 1 resident, wbtob was to the effect that durlog the Peninsular campaign one of MeUlolmn's ecoutlDif parllee oitpinred two hunt red new milch cows from some K"belH. Little Mao looked over the Couulliutlm, but found nothing ap plying to new milch enws. He then telegraphed to the President to know what to do. Before he gota reply an orderly told the General If the cows were not n. liked they would spoil. He then looked over the ConHtltutiou, bin finding nothing in It about milking new milch cow a he again telegraphed to Mr. Lino tin for in structions, to which be replied a.4 follows: To George 13. MoClellan.', Commander of the Army of the Potomac: As you seem to be the biggest calf In the airuy, I suggest that you suck liiem dry. A. Lincoln. "This story," adds the ingenious reporter, course, "produce a laugh" from Mr. Richard II. Dana, Jr. f It Mr. Dana, dining with au acquaintance, should see a vessel of dishonor set upon the table in the place of the soup tureen, he would probably form pretty much the same notion of his host's breeding and decency whioh impartial people now must form of his own breeding and decency when they find him thus commending "Major-General Judson Kilpatriok" to the admiration and the confidence of the "most pure-blooded district in America." The South aud the Election. From the Jf. Y. Time. Demoeratio calculator J of the Delmar and Walker school are trying to sorew np their oenrage by all sorts of artifices. They turn out table after table, designed to prove how surely, and with what ease, the Democraoy will yet win the battle. These estimates all include a majority of tue reoonstruoted States, and also the three States whioh, being unreconttruoted, will under the law be ex cluded from the Eleotoral College. The New Orleans Crescent appropriates the entire ten, with the remark that "The scene of the conflict Is transferred to the Bomb. The Bouth Is the forlorn hope of the De mocratic parly and of constitutional liberty. We any this wlih a clear seune of the Import- r nee of the statement; ind we earnestly Implore our people to ponuer upon it auu to act upou lk The situation Is full of peril, bnt It Is not despe rate.

What are the doctrines to whioh, in the opinion of the Crescent, the Demooratio party is pledged r That journal thus explains: "We ventured the statement jemeriiay that the flection as to the voles of the States might depend ou the ttiien Btate or Vliglnia, MlbHifenippl. and IVxbs.

If they are willing to accept Micho volte and t tlncd by I hem to the end, we must put tueru into their liundi-'. Every cunslil' ration of honor, or gratitude, aud of safety demands this from The same view is urged by the Demooratio press generally, North and South. They unitedly insist that notwithstanding the legis lation of last session, and the fact that States which are excluded from Congres sional representation can have no lot in the election of a President, Virginia, Mississippi, Texas shall hold au election. They agree, V "yihg . that the Demooratio party ought to, an will, iuBist upou tu oouutin of the votes of thge unreconstructed States; and the President is relied upon to support the demand. The votea iu question will not beoounted in auy cirounistauoes. Ia reason and justice they ought not to be, and iu law they oannot be. But the Democrats propose to make the demand the pretext for disturb ance, if the votes of the other States be not decisive without them. j This is one feature of the' Demooratio pun for creating trouble iu the event of .Uraui'j .election. , In pursuance of this purpose, they -are organising for eleotions, on the old slavery - basis, iu Virginia and Texas. 1 Papers from.'

Kxoept by the free use of uue or the other of these agencies, their prospect of carrying more than a single Southern State is dim indeed. We hope to see the eleotlon decided irre spective of the Southern vote. And aooordiug to present appearances it will be. A Democratic Mole-lilll. From tht If. T. Tribune. No petty mountain, but the World, has been in labor for now six entire dajs as long a time as went to the making of a world as im- Jortant even as this and at last the redicu oiis mouse is born. For its dimensions, and aspect, and features, see the card signed August Belmonte. We learn from it that Seymour ia a great statesman, "but we regret to say that we do not learn from it that Blair is a great states man, or that he is a great soldier, or, indeed, that there is a man by the name of Blair. We learn also that one victory will be enough for the Democracy, which, considering the paucity of their supply in that liue, strikes ns as a happy adaptation of their desires to their means. They are evidently in the con dition to which the eoonomlst brought his horse they are ready to live on one oat a day and be thankful for that. But if that oat should fail them, t They take great pains to Inform ns that they mean peace iu fact, peace is the burden of their song. We beg to iuform them that they are in error; and that the extorted ex planation of a mere executive oommittee of a party in the eleventh hour of the battle aud on the verge of the manifest defeat is not an authoritative exposition of that party's pur pose. Francis P. Blair, Jr., is their candidate for the Vice-Presidency. They have not dared to revolt against him, aud they oannot pretend to be iu favor of Blair but opposed to his enforcement. Mr. Blair's voice is not for peace. The National Convention's voice was Lot for peace. The on sail the reconstruc tion legislation was unconstitutional, revolu tionary, and void, and the other said it must be trampled into the dust, and now, in fresh and elaborate letters, defends his declaration. That is the positiou of the Demooratio party, resolved upon in National Convention, and carefully written down iu the platform. That is the opinion of the candidate selected by that Convention to place upon that platform. No Executive Committee oau deny the one or ig nore the other; the business of such a Com mittee is to execute orders, not ' to undo the work of the body that created it. Mr. August Belmont has discharged his last gun, and is already fleeing from the field. Prom the safe retreats beyond the Atlantio he can the more pleasantly ooutemplate the rout. Meantime Republicans will press hard the fight. . Their, antagonists are in utter and hopeless confuBiou, revolting against their leaders, but not daring to depose them fhirking their platr'oim, but not dating to cancel it shuffling when they should be ' fighting trying to per suade the pnbltn. n7 h say, that their deliberate utterances heretofore have been meaningless. While they wrangle, let as seize the hour of victory. Push things I . Change of Candidates. From the Washington Naliona, lntelligenoer. A week has elapsed since the result of the election in Pennsylvania, Ohio, aud ludiaua was known a result upon whioh was staked the Presidential oontest. The sucoess of the radical party in the three States was followed by a suggestion of the New York World for a obange of candidates. In this demand the hlelligencer and a very large portion of the Demoeratio press aoquiesoed. Siuoe then nothing authoritative has been heard from those who assumed the oonduct of the cam- Eaign, although numerous despatches have een addressed to the members of the oommit tee at New York and to Governor Seymour. If the oontest is to be continued, some conclusive aotion, whioh will be recognized by the Demooratio and conservative .voters throughout the country, should at once be forthcoming iu euch form as will give it full authority. We call attention to the article in Monday's World, and fully endorse it, with the exception of that part referring to General Blair, whose manly speeoh at St. Louis excites general admiration. The paragraph alluded to will bear the construction that the World calls for the withdrawal of General Blair from the ticket. In this we do not agree. The chauge, if made, must be thorough, and the demand for that change is so general as to require the immediate attention ot those who have autho rity to speak to the Democratic and conserva tive voters of the oountry. Two weeks yet remain for aotion. Some thing decisive should be done, aud at once. Not in the form of individual opinion, but in order to give foroe to whatever may be deter mined upon, the National Demoeratio Com mittee should be convened, and their voice heard in this orisis. It is folly to deny the faot that a very general desire exists for the proposed change, but whatever is to be done must be immediate. DRUGS, PAINTS, ETO J-OBEIiT SHOEMAKER & CO, N. E.
