SOUTHERN DEMOCRACY.
The Democracy of Mobile, Louisiana, held
a meeting, a few days ago which was ad
dressed by John Forsyth and (fen. Cullen
M. Battle. Their speeches give a pretty clear
idea of what they understand by the mod
eru term Democracy, :uid what construction
they put upon that pliable piece of lolitical
mechanism called the New York platform.
Let those who have lost friends on Southern
battle-fields, or the maimed and crippled sol
dier who has cause each day to remember
with pain and sorrow the bloody battle-fields
of the rebellion, read Forsyth's Democratic
eulogy on grey-backs! It runs as follows:
I am to be followed by a gentleman and a
soldier whose name is a "household word"
wherever the remembrance of sou thern valor
lives. To you of Mobile he is especially
dear, because it was under his leadership and
banner that the gallantyoutb, the flower of
our city, marched to "glory and the grave."
On many a bloodj' field did he maintain the
honor of American manhood.
* * *
General C. M. Battle nobly did his part in
the fields of the South, when a holy libation
of blood and valor was poured out to' the
common renown. At Seven Pines, at Chan
ceilorsville, Winchester, Gettysburg, Fisher's
fliil and on scores of fields he led nis brave
Alabamians where glory was to be won and
his grey coat and flashing sword were ever
found nearest the flashing of the guns.
i orsyth forgets to tell us that to the man
whom he thus eulogises we arc in part in
debted for the heritage of widows and or
phans that fill the land, and that he and such
Democrats or rebels as he and Gen. Battle
now propose to repudiate the national debt
and send these widows pensionless to beg
their bread from door to door; he forgets to
holdup this side of the picture of rebel
chivalry; but let us not forget it.
And what has this General Battle to say
fi>r himself? Hear him and then consider
what is likely to be tbe fruits of victory for
such a Democracy:
No language can express the emotions that
swell my bosom. Profoundly do I thank vou
for this flattering reception. To the Young
Men's Democratic Club I am indebted for this
high honor.
******* *
I have come to meet those comrades so
tried and so trne. I desired to thank them
for the glorious past, to counsel with them
of the threatening future, and to abjure them
by every consideration that can move a pa
triot s heart and fire a hero's spirit to pursue
such a course of action as will demonstrate
to all mankind that the spirit of liberty still
survives: that here in this beautiful city of
the Gult honor s empire is firm pillared as
the eternal hills. Comrades, brothers, year
after year you bore the Confederate flag
through hre and tempest, and upon more than
two hundred battle fields covered it with vic
tory. \ our imperishable glories are intrench
ed in the impregnable fortress of the past,
and no power can dim their effulgence. Hate
malignity and tyranny are impotent to trans
form patriots into traitors and heroes into
slaves. lou my comrades, and yon alone, can
obliterate the glorious record. Will you do
it, or shall it remain a perpetual heritage to
your children? YV hat though yonr flag went
down bathed in woman's consecrating tears
ana baptized in the best blood of the nation?
Ihis is still your native land.
* * * * * * *
Oh. she is dearer, a thousand times dearer,
than she was in ber strength and her glory.
lcr fortitude in the midst of her desolation
rus attracted the admiration of the world, and
now the great democratic party of the Union
throws oi er her a banner inscribed with the
principles oi constitutional liberty for which
she fought, aud I am here to night to ask you
to come up to her altar, and let us again
pledge to her our lives, our fortune and our
sacred honor. The democratic party offers
the moat honorable terms. It endorses
principles for which you battled—not because
it was t_,e principles upon which the confed
eracy was founded—but the confederacy adop
ted them because they were promulgated by
the fathers of American independence and
were vindicated by the war of the Revolution.
******
Not only does it declare in favor of that
constitution so dear to you but it most sol
emnly declares that all these acts of recon
struction, so totally destructive of your rights
B0 repugnant to every honorable feeling,
unconstitutional, null and void.

MANDS PEACE.
But anything my countrymen, is better
than dishonor. Come war and pestilence,
come death in all its terrible array, rather
than suffer the slightest stain of dishonor.
If war must come iu defence of the Union
and the Constitution, patriots of the North
and South will gather aronnd the proud en
sign of the republic, and planting it on the
perilous edge of battle gather around it to the
carnival of death.
What think you of it, reader? llow do
you like these Democratic laudations of the
rebels who murdered and starved vour fath
crs, brothers and sons in rebel prisons?
And over them the Democratic party throws
her protecting banner! Well may they
pledge to it their lives, their fortunes and
their sacred (?) honors! "The Democratic
party offers the most honorable terms.' "It
endorses the principles for tchieh you bat
j tied." Give us a full-blooded rebel, and not
j a sneaking copperhead, for honest truth
I lifter all, he may be wicked and treasonable,
I but he makes a bold parade of his wicked-
I ness and is plain and out-spoken in his trea
i son. Truly he says the Democratic party
j endorses the principles for which they
fought. Truly did Wade Hampton say,
"The cause for which Stonewall Jackson
fell will yet triumph in some form." Truly
did Gov. Wise say, *' Secession is not dead]
it is more alive than ever." Truly did Gov.
Vance say that, " What the Confederacy
fought for will be won by the election of Sey
mour and Blair. Rebels speak their opin
ions plainly and it behooves the lovers of
peace, law and order to i>onder well their
speeches. They are the only true exposi
tions of the copj>erhead platform.
Look again! See how the flag and the
President with the army are to be on their
side the next time. Mark well the omiuous
threat, "If we triumph at the polls," if
Seymour and Blair are elected, "the irreg
ular and revolutionary governments must
give way. Read the whole sentence as dis
played in capitals. What a line rebel pro
gramme. The President, the army, the
national flag, are all to take up the lost
cause. Congress, the Senate, the represen
tatives of the nation, the will of the people,
are all to be ignored and defied. If the
people will not submit they arc told they
must fire upon the national ensign. They
who suppressed rebellion, crushed treason
and preserved the national liberty are to be
put in the false light of rebels. For this
purpose you are asked to vote for Seymour
and Blair. How well the whole programme
comports with the suggestion of Blair's letter
"that it will be the duty of the Democratic
President if elected to subvert the Southern
governments as now organized according to
1 the laws of Congress, and if need be he'must
use the Army and Navy in the work."
American citizens! Freemen, you who wore
the blue, you whose fathers, brothers and
sons sleep on southern battle-fields, how
can you, how dare you, stand idle and per
mit this infamous programme to be carried
out? Vote the ticket no man can, in whose
veins nms one drop of patriotic blood or
j. whose heart ever thrilled at the cfy of free
dom. But more is required of you. Such
bold, and presumptuous treason must be
fought unto death. When such infamous
plans are laid for surrendering the strong
holds of liberty into the hands Of traitors,
no man must be idle. The welfare and the
safety of the country demands of every one
active, earnest, faithful work. To work
then without delay. As you honor the
sainted dead, as you love the living, as you
arc proud of the past and hnjwful of ihe
future of your country and as you prize her
glorious liberty t cork! icork ! work! The
issue is PEACE or WAR. Grant and Colfax
will give us PEACE, security and prosj>erity.
Seymour and Blair threaten us with ANAR
CHY and BLOODY CIVIL WAR.
BEWARE OF COI'PER IIEAD FALSE
HOOD.
Copperhcadism makes but small preten
sions to even ordinary morality, but false
statements arc made so confidently *and
presumptuously that the unwary are con
strained to believe them without examina
tion. In their present desperate straits
even their most prominent leaders are
stooping to deliberate misrepresentation and
falsehood. Horatio Seymour in a recent
speech asserted that "it will cost this year
more than $150,000,000, to maintain an
army to keep the South in subjugation. '' He
well knew, at the very moment he made this
assertion, that the whole expense for the
year just closed as shown bv the official
records was less than $40,000,000, and that
this included, the military Government of
the unreconstructed states. Ileconstruction
expenses, the Freedman's Bureau and the
guarding of the Texas frontier against In
dian and Mexican raids. In a speech made
by Seymour at the Cooper Institute, New
iork on the 25th of June and published
in last week's Gazette he asserts that the
cost of the Government from July 1, 1865
to July 1, 1868 was $820,390,208. Yet he
very well knew that this estimate covered
hundreds of millions of dollars expended in
paying off and mustering out the soldiers
of our armies during 1865, and that other
hundreds of millions were since expended
in paying bounties to the soldiers. These
facts are all ignored in order that a charge
of extravagance may bo trumped up against
the republican party and that the truth
may be perverted or hidden,.in order to
make political capital.
In the same speech he trumps up a similar
false charge against the Navy Department
and compares it with the expenses of the
navy department during four years of peace
under Buchanan, to make out a case of Re
publican extravagance. Can it be possible
that he thought to deceive the people by
uch a trick. Every one knows the enor
mous difference between the naval expenses
in time of war and in time of peace, yet
this aspirant to Presidential honors hopes
to make the people believe that the increas
ed oost in time of war is the result of Re
publican extravagance, when every one
knows it is the result of Democratic treason
and rebellion Verily Seymour already
shows signs of insanity.
Again he asserts in the same speech, falsely
and with the most unblushing impudence,
that the present tariff policy of the govern
ment has swept our commerce from the ;
seas. This is a direct stab at the vital in
terests of Pennsylvania, while the malicious
falsifier well knows that the loss of our com
merce is only one more Of the disastrous
results of the late Democratic rebellion to
which he himself rendered all the aid ttnd
comfort in his power. Let not the people
be deceived by such specious falsehoods.
They are scattered broad cast over the land
and are iu the mouth of every pot house
politician. They can all be refuted by aDy
one who has the least knowledge of the his
tory of the past seven or eight years. Al
most every charge of taxes, debt, extrava
gance &c., trumped up by these falsifiers
can be shown to be the legitimate result of
the rebellion brought on by Democratic
dough-facedness, perpetuated through four
long years by Copperhead aid and sympathy
and now attempted to be renewed by Cop
perhead candidates. Point them to their
own shameful record as a refutation of their
falsehoods and to the history of our glor
ious achievements as a rebuke of their
treason.
CAN DO NO BETTER.
The Pittsburgh l'ost , the leading Demo
cratic paper of Western Pennsylvania said,
on the 28th of June 1867:
What better thing can we do in case of
General Grant's nomination by the Repub
lican party than to vote for him for the Pres
idency? Our aim should be to strengthen him
as much as possible independent of party and
to elect him as the President of the people.
If unanimously so much the better.
"We solemnly believe that if the people
generally of the United States can come to
gether with real unanimity on General Grant,
in regard to the Presidency it will be the hap
piest thing for our country that could possi
bly occur. The future good effects ot this
course are almost incalculable. We earnestly
ask our Democratic friends everywhere to
consider this subject carefully."
Yes, consider this subject carefully, hon
est Democrats. You can do no better thing
than to vote for General Grant for the
Presidency. Make him the President of
the people and the questions of the war and
the rebellion will be forever settled. Let
Democrats carefully consider this most im
portant matter. Grant will doubtless be
elected by a very large majority, by Repub
lican votes alone. But its moral effect will
be as nothing compared with what it would
be if Democrats and Republicans were to
join in elevating him to the Presidential
chair and thereby making it the emphatic
voice oftho nation, and not of a mere party,
proclaiming that the issues of the war are
settled and the reconstruction of the States
affirmed, and that the exciting and danger
ous questions settled by the unanimous
voice of the people shall be no more opened
or revived to distract our people and en -
danger our liberty. The moral effect of
such a course, by the honest and patriotic
portion of the Democratic party, would be
almost magical. It would at once give per
manent peace and security throughont the
South, to b# followed quickly by prosperity
and plenty. It would at once settle tbe
currency question, for greenbacks would
rise to a par with gold and our government
bonds would command a premium in the
money markets of the world. The labor
problems of the day would thereby he solv
ed. The peace and security of the country
being securred we would at once enter upon
a career of unprecedented prosperity. <>n
the other hand the election of Seymour and
Blair would be the signal for a new war,
with the President arrayed against Congress
and the people. The terrible results of the
anarchy and civil war that would thus be
inaugurated afresh in behalf of the "Lost
Cause" of the rebellion, we will not under
take to portray. But one thing is assured.
It would be even worse than the late rebel
lion, for it would devastate the whole coun
try instead of only a part. Democrats con
sider. Take the advice of the Post and
make the peace and prosperity of your
country secure. Ignore party ties, defy
party leaders, and do the work of patriots
by elevating him to the Presidential chair,
who so gallantly and triumphantly led our
armies to victory and our nation to Peace.
ANSWER THEM.
When a copperhead talks about the great
burthen of taxes under which the people
groan, toil him that they are the heritage of
a Democratic rebellion. They arc the price
of American Liberty paid to redeem it from
the parricidal hands of such Democrats as
Jeff. Davis and Robert E. Lee. When he
talks of the $4000,000,000 of debt, rolled
up as he declares by a Republican adminis
tration, give him the same answer; and don't
forget to add that copperhead aid and sym
pathy made necessary a double expenditure
of blood and treasure in saving the life of
the nation and the liberties of the people.
Tell him also that a Republican administra
tion in spite of Andy Johnson and his cop
perhead allies has already paid off $1500,-
000,000 of that debt and is annually paying
hundreds of millions more, although the
Southern States as yet have been able to
pay nothing, because of obstructions laid in
the way of reconstruction by Andy Johnson
and the whole copperhead party. Tell bim
also that, while so rapidly paying off the na
tional debt, a Republican administration,
or rather a Republican Congress, has al
ready removed mofe than one half of the
direct taxes that it was found necessary to
lay during the war. Tell him too that those
taxes have been removed from the necessa
ricsof life, which the poor man must buy,
and laid upon incomes and luxuries, for the
niort part, so as to protect the poor and lay
the burden upon the rich who are able to
pay it. The Republican party is the poor
man's friend. Grant is the candidate of
the party of Law and Order, Liberty and
Peaoe.
CJO TO WORK.
Words of cheer cnuie to ua from every
section of the country. If we ore vigilant
Grant and Colfax will be triumphantly elec
ted. But we must not allow a false securi
ty to lure us into idleness and indifference.
Idleness may lose us all. Our enemies are
active, stealthy and unscrupulous. They
will leave no tricks of fiaud or deception
untried. Wc must be prepared to meet
tbem at every point. See every lukewarm
Republican and stir him up to the dangers
that threaten us. Show every reasonable
and honest Democrat the yawning gulf of
auarchy and civil war into which his un
scrupulous party leaders are endeavoring to
lead the country. See that your neighbor
is well supplied with papers from which he
can learn the importance of the impending
contest Circulate the INSURER for the
campaign. Get your neighbor to take it.
If he won't subscribe for it send it to him
yourself. If you cant afford to send it to
him send us his name and address, and we
will see that he is supplied. Be active and
vigilant. Keep a sharp lookout for tricks
and frauds. See that every Union man is
assessed in good time. Ilemember that the
State election in October will have an im
portant influence on the Presidential con
test. Remember also that two gallant sol
diers are our candidates on the State ticket
and that they have not only acquitted them
selves creditably on the field of battle but
also in the respective offices which they
now fill, and for which they are candidates
for re-election. To work then with a will
and never cease till the polls close on the
3d of November and Grant and Colfax will
be elected by so triumphant a majority that,
rebels and oopperheads will forever afttr be
consigned to a well merited oblivion.
AT Harrisburg, the capital town of our
Commonwealth, in a leading Democratic
diinking saloon, frequented by the chiefs of
that party, hang in handsome frames the
portraits of Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee,
Beaureguard, Buck nor, Bragg, and, to
crown all, of Wilkes Booth. This is in no
cut-throat hole, but a room where the
gentlemen and leaders ofthe local Democracy
meet for social and business intercourse. It
is almost impossible to conceive of any more
studied insult or affront to the people of
Pennsylvania. In Kentucky and Tennessee
thousands of graves are filled with Penosyl
vanians shot down by the impressed soldiers
of these very men Bragg and Buckner; liee
and Davis are the two men finally responsi
ble for the atrocities of Andersonville and
Libby, and Booth is a name of execration not
only to every loyal but to every honest utan.
It is distasteful to speak of such matters as
these or to narrate such incidents, but it is
becoming every hour more and more a duty.
From all parts of the country the evidence
thickens that the leaders of the Lost Cause
are the adopted wards of the Democracy.
Not their ignorant, unwashed, unthinking
masses, but their best men, such as they
are, systematically pay respect to and
cherish the memory of the nation's foes,
even be tbey felons, fllostility to the
country is the only passport to the friend
ship and fellowship of that organization
which has stolen the name of an oncchonor
ed party.— The Press.
C.AKI'ET HAGGKKS has lately become a
favorite term with copperheads to signify
Northern men who have gone South.
These men go South for the purpose of set
tling and'becoming a part of the permanent
population, and wilt do a goodwork in rg or
ganizing the labor system of that section of
the country and as such the term carpet
baggers is rather an honor than otherwise.
There was a class of carpet-baggers during
the war, however, who traveled carpet bag
in hand on a bee-lino for Canada and to
whom the term as then applied was by no
means complimentary. It is these same
draft-sneaks who now most delight to apply
to an honorable class of men, as a disgrace
ful epithet, the term which derived ail of
dishonor that attaches to it from their own
dastardly, cowardly conduct in the hour of
their danger.
REPUBLICANS, the time is short, much
work remains to be done. Organize at onee
and see that all prelimenary work is
promptly done. Eternal vigilance is ever
the price of liberty. Our cause is good but
it will not triumph without labor and effort.
Success can only be the reward of diligent
and faithful work. See thatTnion men are
assessed. See that such as are lukewarm
or indifferent are arc U9ed to the importance
of the issue. Make every honest effort in
your power. Diligent work will make suc
cess assured, indolence may cost us not only
an ignominious defeat but a new civil war.
"THERE should be the greatest vigilance
along the whole line," said Grant to Ord,
when victory was al>out to perch upon our
banners at Vick&burg. If we would conquer
rebellion at the polls, in November next, wc
must join the Grant and Colfax forces, and
do our share of picket duty.
A VIRGINIA CONSERVATIVE FOR
GRANT.
Judge Alexander Hives, of Virginia, who,
in the following letter, gives his support to
General Grant, is oue of the most eminent
lawyers of I irginia, a native of the Htato,
and hiis heretofore l)cen regarded as a Con
servative :
"HOT SPRINGS. August 15, 1868.
"Dear Sir —Your letter of the 14th instant,

THE FREETOWN'S BURIAL'.— The Ten
nessee correspondent of the New York
Times says:
"Almost every dollur spent by the bureau
has been so much invested in the peace and
prosperity of the South. W here there might
have been a bloody, prolonged conflict of
races, there is now a rooted conciliation
which will deepen and strengthen as the fu
ture great results of the bureau's work is at
tested in the intelligence and manliuuss of
the coming generation. The Democracy
have reason to complain because the bureau
lias made giant strides in the great work of
educating and elevating the great laboring
class of the South. Such a result would be
lie its oft repeated prophecies and disap
point its fondest hopes. That class of South
ern people who share their prejudices and
hopes have like reason to complain. The
Southern press may respond to such wishes
ami pander to such prejudices by misrepre
senting the workings and the efforts of the
rreedmen's Bureau, but the great result at
tained refutes their chargus.
POLITICAL ITEMS.
The federal office holders in New York
refuse to be bled by the supporters of Sey
mour and Blair, and as a consequence the
Democracy are indignant, threatening all who
refuse with the vengeance of Andy Johnson.
TIIE President is resolved to "swing round
a circle," but bow large it is to be, uo one in
authority has yst announced. He will make
certain speeches, swallow the platform as a
necromancer swallows butcher knives, and
endorse Seymoure and Blair, for all of which
services he will be reqnited in away hereaf
ter to be diversed by the Democratic leaders.
A POLITICAL const of the Boston Corn Ex
change has been made, with the following
result: Of two hundred and forty-seven
members, one hnndred and eighty-three favor
the election of Grant, thirty-three Seymour,
fifteen are doubtful, three would not vote,
and three were not in town.
Tnc Philadelphia Age is quoted assaying
that in one ward in Pniladelphia, one hun
dred thousand Germans have come out for
Seymour and Blair. This is not the same,
but the same kind of a story, as that about
the "ten thousand cats," which were finally
squeezed down into "our old cat and another
one."
THE Buffalo Express says: "When s Dem
ocratic crowd gathers at Troy and other
points in the interior of the State, they shout
for Seymour, Blair, and Hoffman. This
looks as if the Sachems of Tammany had
the machinery all arranged for their man for
Governor. They have a Bismarck in Tam
many."
IT is stated, with an appearance of author
ity, that Chief Justice Chase will vote for
Grant and Colfax, and that he regards him
self as ill used by the Democratic leaders,
who, by making him believe that they were
going to nominate him, got from him various
committals and then let him slide.—N. T.
Sun.
TENEMENT houses have already been leased
in Philadelphia for election purposes by cer
tain prominent Democrats. Under the guise
of boarding bouses, these dens will be crowded
with electors of Democratic morals and social
tastes, herded and corralled like mules, to be
| trotted out on the second Tuesday in October.
. j This is practical Democracy.
WE begin to understand why it is that the
Democracy dovote so much of their attention
to Gen. Butler. Grant said in one ef his re
ports that Butler was "bottled up," and the
Democrats "go for" anything that is "bottled
up."
THE landlord of a hotel in New Kochelle
has nailed to the front of his building a large
placard containing pictures of the Tammany
candidates and the inscription—"Seymour
and Blair. Democrats arouse!" A gentle
man riding by, a few mornings ago, was
struck with the ludicrousness and decided
propriety of the exortation to Democrats to
"arouse," as directly under it were two of the
'unterrified" dead drunk.
THE Yicksburg Times findsßlair just suited
to its rebel tastes. It says: "Objection is
made down this way to the endorsement of the
Blair letter, by z, few timid people, on the
score of prudence, and yet it was this indenti
cal letter of frank Blair to his friend Col.
Brodheadthat secured the Missouri hero the
nomination for Vice President. We want
just such ammunition ax Frank Blair uses."
THE Meridian ;Miss) Mercury (Blair and
Seymour) of the 21st says.- "With the skull
and cross-bones of the 'lost cause" before us,
we will swear that this is a white man's Gov
ernment. We must make the negro under
stand we are the men we were when we held
him in abject bondage, and make him feel
that when forbearance ceases to be a virtue,
he has aroused a Power that will control him
or destroy him."
THE President is represented as displeased
with the hasty announcement in Democratic
papers to the effect that he intends to support
Seymour and Blair —indeed this feeling of
annoyance is so great that prominent Demo,
crats in Washington city assert that they
would not be surprised at a positive break on
his part with the Democrats. One of the
latter class most intimate with Mr. Johnson,
and one of his own warm defenders, asserted
on Tuesday the President was not incliued to
do the Democrats any good and conld not be
depended on for any party aid whatever.
THE Democratic papers of Connecticut are
raving over a new "Radical outrage," viz:
the circulation of the Irish Republic among
the Irish voters of the State. What business
has anybody to circulate any but Democratic
papers among the Irishmen? What business
have Irishmen to read any other papers?
SOME of the Democrats in the New York
Fourth District are moving to throw over
board the Hon. JohnMorrissey, their present
member of Congress. No charge is made
against him of unfaithfulness to the Demo
cracy. He has always voted right in Con
gress, and has done everything that the Rep
resentative of the Fourth District ought to do.
His offence is that he bets on the election of
Grant and Colfax.
THE Chicago Post says it was a lucky stroke
tor Hendricks that he failed to be nominated
for the Presidency. He is a candidate for
Governor of Indiana, and one Waterloo de
feat ig sufficient for one campaign. Hen
dricks will come out of a storm—drooping,
cold, and sad.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette,
writting from St. Louis, says; The old rebel
lion spirit of 1861 is cropping out in many
! parts of this State, and there will be lively
times and not a little, bloodshed before the
campaing is over, Frank Blair's letter, and
the teachings of Wade Hampton, Governor
Wise, Robert Toombs, and their allies, are
having their legitimate effect", and cannot
result but in tumult and conflict.
A PROMINENT Democrat o( Burlington,
lowa, and recently a member of the Common
Council of that city, but oow in California,
writes to his friends in Bnrlington that
California will go for Grant by 25,000 majori
ty. The Hawk Eye says that other letters
received from old residents, now on the
Pacific coast, say that both California and
Oregon are sure for Grant
THE New York Herald goes back on its
new political affiliations. Its advocacy of
Grant and denunciation of Seymour was short
lived; yet it doubtless accomplished Mr. Ben
nett's purpose, which it is fair to infer was a
pecuniary one. The Herald, it seems, was
only coquetting with Tammany and trying to
make the Democracy see that its virtuous in
fluence was worth purchasing. Mr. August
Belmont having been to see Mr. Bennett, the
Herald now comes valiantly to the support of
Mr. Seymour, whom it scored so deeply but a
few days ago.
O.VB of the best replies we have noticed in
the canvass is that of the Hon. John A.
Bingham, of Ohio, who, while speaking at a
Republican meeting in Bangor, Maine, was
iasulted by a Copperhead who cried out,
"How about Mrs. Surrott?" Mr. Bingham
instantly responded. How about her? Go
and consult the records of the court that tried
and convicted ber. Go and ask General
Hancock, who issued the order for her execu
tion in spite of a writ of habeas corpus which
had been served upon him;'and, if you are
still unsatisfied, go and ask that apostate
President, Andrew Johnson, why he refused
a pardon after a petition had been sent him
signed by every member but one of the court
who tried her, and drawn np in the handwri
ting of the man you seek to insult.

painful for the eyes.
GEN. SHERMAS has issued a General Order

so much better adapted to their wants, and is
likely to prove so much more efficient for

THE Secretary of the Ution Congressional
Republican Committee is in receipt of a large
number of letters from different State North
and Sooth, giving an account of the progress
and prospects of the Presidential campaign.
They are from leading and well-informed
polilicans, and express great hope of the
success of the Republican ticket at the Octo
ber electious, ss well as at the Presidential
election in November. In nearly all the
States organizations for tbe campaign are
complete, -and the people are being thorough
ly aroused by speeches and the circulation of
documents.
OF the one-and-a-half million dollars ap
propriated by Congress at its last session for
clearing the public rivers and harbors, a very
large proportion, under tbe direction of Major
General A. W. Humphreys, Chief of the
Engineer Corps of the United States, goes to
the improvement of the South. For improv
ing the navigation of the Mississippi $350,000
are given: for the Tennessee, $100,000; to the
Louisville and Portland Canal, $100,000; and
the proportion holds good through the smaller
items.
ABOUT five hundred dollars in gold and sil
ver coin was last week found concealed in the
dwelling house of John Rhoads, in Elizabeth
town, Lancaster county. Mr. Rhoad's wife
died several weeks ago, and it is supposed
that she had this treasure put away without
the knowledge of her husband. Mr. and
Mrs. R., who lived very economically, were
a very aged couple, and owned a small farm
close by Elizabeth town. tars. R. received
the proceeds front the sale of milk Bnd but
ter, and doubtless "sunk" a portion regularly
to provide against the contingency of "a
rainy day."
THE Mobile Register nays that Forrest and
Wade Hampton were the lions of the Demo
cratic Convention, and of New York, and that
they were dined and wined as never con
quering heroes were before. It adds that so
far from advising these gentlemen and Ad
miral Semmes "not to appear in public as the
advocates of Seymour and Blair, if we had our
way we would put them in the field of cam
paign in the North, and let them speak, and
canvass, and utter the boldest truths that they
feel, from every stump in the North and
West." Several weeks ago we begged the
Democrats not to overlook these old cam
paigners, but to invite them to speak in the
North. It would be refreshing to hear
Toombs, Cobb and Wade Hampton utter some
of the "bold truths" they have spoken in
South Carolina and Georgia, and which fail
to reach the Democratic ear in the North,
owing to the timidity of Democratic journals,
which recoil at these utterances.
CONBEHVATIVK SUPPORT OK GEN.
GRANT.
Letter ofllon. J. -S.Carlile to the Haiti
more American.
MESSRS. EDITORS I— My attention has
| Been called to tho pablicati'iu in your paper
of my letter to Genera! Kelly, and some
surprise expressed at its contents. 1 have,
for considerations personal to myself, de
layed any publication of my reasons for tbe
conclusions to which I have arrived. 1 uow
can only hint at a few.
I have never been, in the strict sense of
the word, a party tnan. My chief object in
public life has been the maintenance of the
IJnion uud'-T the Constitution. The Hnionof
the States and the rights of the States, as
secured by the Constitution, has been my
motto, and to the preservation of that IJnion
and the maintenance of those rights have
all my efforts as a public man as well as a
private citizen been directed. I have long
been of the opinion, and still believe, that
partisan polities have been and still are the
bane of the Republic.
With the death of Andrew Jackson the
Democratic party ceased to be guided by
principle, ami gradually became sectional
ized. Tic declaration of Jackson—"The
Federal Union, it must and fchall be prc-
I served"—was discarded, and a Southern
Confederacy openiy advocated and threat
ened. Sectionalism assumed the phase of,
and was substituted far, patriotism.
Regarding as I always have my party
obligations as of less binding force than the
obligations 1 owe to my country, I have
often subjecfod niysclf to the charge of in
consistency. _To occupy such a position is
no light or trifling matter. It requires much
more moral courage to subject oneself to
such a charge, and to the denunciations and
detraction that always attend it, than at
first may be supposed necessary. The
action of the Secession Convention in
Virginia, and the results that followed iin
mediately upon the adoption of the or
dinance of secession, exhibited a fearful
want of moral courage.
I believed then, and still believe, that if a
' dozen members of that Convention from as
many different sections of the State had
taken the course, and labored as I did, the
State.could have been saved lrom the ter
rible effects of secession. As it was, my
section alone was saved, and is now a State
in the Union. In that trying hour 1 adhered
to my motto, and as I was the first in the
Virginia Convention to openly and boldly
denouuee the heresy of secession, so was I
the first in Congress to denounce the policy
of Congress that was subsequently adopted,
when it was foreshadowed by a Senator who
has since gone to "that bourne from whence
no traveller returns." My remarks upon that
occasion are reported in the Globe of the
I6th December. 1861.
My opposition to Radicalism is well
! known. That I would have saved the Union
party from it, if it had been in my power, is
also well known. So great was my op
position to the ultraism of Congressional
legislation, and so sincere my convictions,
that rather than abate the one or surrender
the other I gave up my place in the Senate
and for a time lost the confidence of my
Union friends. I bad hoped and expected
iliat the action of the New York Convention
would have entitled its nominees to the
support of Conservative Union men. Had
its members pledged themselves to the
maintenance of the right of local self-govern
ment in the Status, as secured by the Con
stitution. and nominated as their Presiden
tial eaudidate a man of undoubted Unionism.
; who believed in the right of the Govern
j meat to protect itself and enforce its lawful
! authority, I should have voted for its nom
i inees. This was not done. On the contrary,
! it is my opinion that Hendricks wa- defeated
I because he is not a believer in the right of
! secession. The war record of Hancock de-
I feated him. Mr. Yallandingham's patriot
' ism nominated Seymour and crushed the
aspirations of the Chief Justice. The friends
j of "the lost cause" triumphed over the
i Unionism of the Convention, and the strife
! of the battle-field is to be renewed, to be
flight out at tbe ballot box. As much as I
jain opposed to tbe Radical legislation of the
last six years, I am more opposed to disunion.
So long as we are one people vicious legis
lation may be corrected, even constitutional
amendments may be abolished,^and consti
tutional, liberty preserved; but once divided
into separate States, under different Govern
ments, liberty ami prosperity, peace and
good government are lost forever. Grant
will receive no support from Secessionists or
! their sympathizers: they are all to be fouhd
in the ranks of the party supporting Mr.
| Seymour. The conservatism of Republican
. ism nominated Grant. The radicalism ol
; Democracy nominated Seymour.
I If the Supreme Court nhall decide, as the
! Democracy hold it will decide next winter.
: the reconstruction legislation of Congress
■ unconstitutional, it will doubtless be for tbe
i reason among others that the State has the
; right, free from Congressional interference
! or Executive dictation, to form for itself its
■ own Constitution, provided it be republican
jin form, if this be so, the Governments
\ created by tbe Constitutions of the seceded
i States, under the laws of Congress, are
j nullities and have no legal existence; the
; Governments created under Kxeoutive dic
i tation must share the same fate, and these
: States will be remitted back to tbe Govern
! uients created by the Constitutions adopted
i by each after the passage of their several
! ordinances of secession and tbe repudiation
j of their allegiance to the Constitution of the
, 1 uited States. Ln this situation, with an
Executive who thinks, with the late I'resi
j dent Buchanan, that the Government of the
United States cannot use force against the
people ot a seceded State to compel obedi
ence to its lawful authority, will not disunion
be a laet accomplished, and will not the war
have been fought in vain? It is not possible,
iu the limits allowed by the press to com
munications of this sort, to do more than
briefly refer to a few considerations that ha\ e
brought my mind to the conclusion to which
I have arrived. I may have occasion, before
the election, to enter fully upon the vindica
tion of my proposed action. This, if done,
I shall do before the people who have
heretofore honored me with their confidence.

Mississippi Uantlits.
The Memphis Avalanche states that a re
cent preliminary trial at Senatobia, .Missis
sippi, developed what had long been sur
mined, namely, that ever since the close of
the war a thoroughly disciplined band of
horse thieves have been actively at work in
North Mississippi, often extending their
operations to aojaeent States. They have a
captain, a first Lieutenant and second in
command, and regular runners, who had
their routes of travel, like the celebrated
Murrellites, who were the terror of the
Southwest forty or fifty years ago. The
captain ofthisbandis named Cage I'hilopot,
a middle-aged man of stout build, and
coarse features, shrewd and roguish looking.
His followers are men ol low instincts, some
of whom hid from conscription during the
war and lived by pillaging theit neighbors.
The war. being over, they came from their
dens in the thickets and swamps, and
migrated to fields where they wore not so
well known. A number settled in De Soto
county, near Senatobia. They put in little
crops, and appeared to make a precarious
living by tilling the soil and working about
as day laborers. Over ago they
began operations as horse thieves. Suspi
cions were long directed to them but
they were too wary for a long time to be
caught. They knew their crowd and trusted
nobody else. But at last they admitted one
member too many, who revealed their opera
tions to the authorities, and all the gang
but two or three have been captured.
A SUDDEN CHANGE OF SCENERY. —The
scenery on the eastern side of the Sierra
Nevada Mountains presents a striking con
trast to that UJHMI the western side. Cross
ing the Sierras from California, the charac
ter of the scenery and mountains suddenly
changes. The forests, says a correspondent,
disapjiear as if by niacin, and grass gives
place to sage brush. Tbe landscape wears
a sallow, unwholesome look, as if a sud
den blast had blown from the Valley of
Death and blighted and withered everything.
No more soft verdure, no more noble* pirn s,
no more health inspiring breezes. Some of
the geological phenomena of the valley arc
strange beyond description The rocks have
the appearance of masses of lava thrown up
out of the earth. In some instances they
rise in columaatod masses hundreds of feet ;
high, shutting out the view and contract- J
ing the valley to a gorgo a few hundred j
yards wide. _ Again they recede in gentle i
slopes, until the valley broadens into an !
undulating plain.
