He offers and can prove tlie truth of what lie says by Federal officers and.hy offi cial documents. Ho states distinctly and challenges contradiction, that in the early purl of August, 1801, when the AiulevsonviUe prison was tilled with Federal prisoners, two-thirds of whom were sick, lie offered to surrender fif teen thousand of them, without requir ing a corresponding delivery of rebel prisoners in return, lint that his offer was rejected by onr ollieers, and he 11 laid) was compelled to retain these men throughout tbo sickly season, and when lie was scarce of provision* and laid lint few surgeons to attend to »o many sick men. The consequence was two-tliirds or more of these. Federal sol diers died. Quid himself tried ids best to save them by his humane oiler to give them up to our authorities, and lie “ urged liasfo on tilt; part of tlie Uni u*d Slates (toverninent, as the mortali ty among the Federal prisoners was very great.” To all these appeals, the President, Stanton, Holt A Co. turned a deaf ear, and owing to their criminal indillerence and liearttessness, some ten or twelve Cniun soldiers tost their lives at Andersonvilie ! GfuJl tin* treasonable villainies of the administration yet revealed, ihis Is the most startling, the most shocking. The betrayal .of M’L'lellan before Richmond, when Dr*administra tion tried its best to have his army cap tured or slaughtered, was bad enough and treasonable enough, but this suc cessful plan to destroy ten nr twelve thousand Union troops, was a piece of wickedness such as the devil of himself could scarcely have invented. Some of those engaged in tins scmmdrclism are in their graves, but Stanton, Holt, But ler anti others engaged in the conspira cy sill live. They should he arrested at mice, tried hy a military court, con victed and hanged. They have mur dered their thousand.-*, and they should die for their unparalleled crimes.

When we ask the Radicals if they think the property of the rich bond-holder should lie exempt from taxation, while that of the poor soldier who shed his hlood is taxed, they an swer “ negro puff,-aye /” When we ask them if there ought to he two enrren eies, one for the people ami one for flic himil-hoklers, they answer “ negro sn/- fraiji !” Their only panacea for the troubles of white men, is the bringing of the negroes to the ballot-box and the social circle. That is the cure all witli them of everything. What if the poor white man is made a slave to debt and taxes, if only Africa votes! Looking at it in lids light, the Republican pa pers tail; Of very little else than the ne gro and his rights! They seem to for get entirely Unit this was originally a while man'* government, and that it continued to lie so from Us organization down to tile period when a sectional party was entrusted with the reins of powijr.

TJic people of each and ail the States have an inalien able right to establish and control their domestic institutions in their own way.

I eniniiMiAcitN vn. «oi.d. Gold 1-10! That is to say it requires one dollar and forty'cents in greenbacks to buy a dollar in gold; or for one dol lar in greenbacks we can liny about 70 cents in gold ! In the “good old times”—a few years ago—when tlie lion eea.-ed to lie down witli the-lamii, and .tiiood enme to be tlie order of the day, we were told that tlie crisis was' hut artificial, and that as snoi>as said “crisis” had passed and tlie country was in peace, our currency would be “as good as gold.” Does it look like it with gold worth 10 cents premium on the dollar? Two years have already elapsed since the Inst re bel laid down Ins arms, and yet tlie gliF taring metal refuses terms of equality witii the pictures of Lincoln and Chase. *i\Tiy is this? Tlie rca-on is most manifest. The war entailed upon us a tremendous bur den Of debt. Although we were assn rod, as weqiassed along, that it would not be heavy, yet in tlie light of tlie present we all begin to realize its extent. The tumdilcst, as well as the wealthiest, are made cognizant of it by th'o tax collec tors. To this, however, the ■people would willingly submit if (Jioy could see Unit matters were thereby ponclltted. lint instead of paying off tlie huge debt by this taxation, we have a wieli'cd and rebellions Hump Congress squandering money by the millions. They do not even protend to retrench and reform.— For them nothing is too great. They vote appropriations for the Freednicu’s Bureau. They vote money to quarter thousands of white and black soldiers over a prostrate people in time of peace.' They increase their own salary. They appoint investigating committees with out number and empower them to ex pend the public money in manufactur ing strengh to perpetuate a cruel and soulless party. They draw upon tlie public vaults as the merchant princes do upon theirs, and scatter their wealth to the winds in order to promote strife and hatred and tyranny over the peo ple. ’lf the Republican party had gone to work at the close of the war to unite the fragments of tlie Union again in peace and harmony, we would have noon far on our way towards cancelling tliis volume of debt. Business would have grown brisk ; intercourse full mid free would have been kept up between the people of botli sections;, capital would have sought out tlie prospects of wealtii in tlie South, and a few years only would have remained until the country would have forgotten its dread ful curse of war. As it is, however, that godless crew have tried to make a hell upon earth, and they have had a suc cess in their -efforts which cannot but gratify them. But one, and a small one, of those results, is that gold maintains its supremacy almost one-half. The grave query arises, when will it be bet ter? Or rather, if we continue in tills course, how Jong will it bo until we are placed in a bankrupt condition? Gen tlemen bond-holders, Ihe question is yours. PERIKY COI XTY The Democratic Convention of “daugh ter Derry” mot at Bloomfield on* Mon day of last week, and placed in nomi nation the following strong and popu lar ticket: .1 ** r — Dr. fSeorge .Mlb-hell, (‘has, J. T. Mclnlirc, F.-q., was unan imously nominated for Senator, with the privilege of selecting hi.- own Conferees. We hope our Democratic friends of the other counties embraced in the Dis trict, may see the necessity of confirm ing Mr. MTntire’s nomination. He i the kind of man for the position of Senator—able, firm and honest. In the event of his nomination hy the District Conferees, we believe lie can and will be elected. Few men of bis age in tin* State have rendered better or more effi cient service to the Democratic eguse than Mr. M’lntlro; and at the proper lime the Democrats of this Congression al District will eheorfitlly acknowledge tho.-e services. Tn k black fiends of Tennessee are al ready making the most of the advanta ges they secured at the farce of an elec tion. Scores of respectable and ipdet Conservatives have already been threat ened with death and hundreds of oth ers have been warned to leave the State. Da Friday night, near Nashville, the inil-huildiiigs of two of Brownlow'a op ponents were burned to the ground by a hand of the militia, who openly boast ed that they intended to make a clean sweep now of all the “ rebels,” because Brownlow had promised that he would pardon them for anything they might do to a “ white-washed rebel” or ids property. J n Nashville, on Friday and the night succeeding, Conservatives were knocked down and terribly beaten by negroes, spurred on by white Radi cals. Armed gangs of negro leaguers prowled about engaged in, as they de clared, “drivin’ copperheads to dare holes.” No doubt tho same horrible condition of affairs exists in the whole of tho eastern portion of the State, where the Brownlow faction arc most numerous. J i’ nr; K W 11.1,1 ams approves the infa mous means taken in Tennessee by Brownlow to perpetuate his usurpation, lie also approves of ,the manner in which negro suffrage was forced upon the people, without their consent at the ballot-box or in any other way. If elected a judge of the Supremo Court, ho will necessarily approve of any hill which tho Rump Congress may pass for the enforcement of negro-suffrage in Pennsylvania without popular.assent. He must not ho elected. The incorrigible old villain, “Gov.” Brownlow, of Tennessee, a day or two before the election farce in that State, issued an address to his band of conspir ators, in which ho denounced the “ late rebels and their Union allien,” and rec ommended that both ho, “ put down.” No man who desires a whole Union, peace and prosperity, lias much show in Tennessee, Two Northern Rads, named Epping and Brown, at Charleston, South Caro lina, had a fight the other day about the leadership of the niggers, Botii wanted to he “ big toad in the puddle.” Epp. ing wanted to fight a duel about it, but, after blustering about tv wlple, was de lighted to find himself under arrest.

For many long ■ years they hud a monopoly of the ma nufacturing interests of tlie country, and the Southern people, who were entirely agricultural in their habits, were their best customers. Hut this did not satisfy tho descendants" of the Puritans. They' must needs free tho negro, and to ac complish their purpose, waged a terri ble war against the South at an expense of hundreds of thousands of lives , and thousands of millions of treasure. And now, with the inevitable negro on their hands and bankruptcy staring them in the face—tlie fruit of their own folly— they see the Southern people dcvelop ■ mg their own unequiiled resources mid providing for their own wants in such a way as to mako tliem independent of Eastern manufactures. This, wo repeat, is what galls tlie Y’aukco nabobs to the quiet: and embitters them more mid more against tlie South.

The Uadicals have no use for an ass who has just brains enough to concoct such stuff as Hus. They need a man who can get up fabrications calculated to deceive; and not a fellow who is only equal to inventions so ridiculous as not even to call for a denial. The Pittsburg Chronicle —an evening Radical journal—is forced to protest against the way in which Jordan draws his bow. After quoting the above para graph the Chronicle candidly remarks; “ It is insulting to the intelligence of the jieoplo of Pennsylvania to -.ay Unit in tills Judicial con test the Democrat lc party has secession inscribed >a Us banner.

He says it must bo passed before the Presidential election, to secure tho negro vote of Pennsylvania, Now York uud Connecti cut, otherwise these Stales will go Democratic.” So, the reason why negro-suffrage is to lie forced upon the country, is to pre vent these States from going Democrat ic and to retain tho radical party- in pow er. This is a frank confession, and shows the motive of the radical leaders. It is not the negro, but themselves, they are trying to take care of. Well, that isjnst what we have been thinking for some time. It is to keep power that they may rob and tax the labor of tho country. Bun. Butler, the hero of Big Bethel and the Duteli Gap, is dubbed a L. L.

Verily, this is lifting rascality and complacent black guardism to the sublime, and tho ambi tious graduates of this Mo of New Eng land colleges, ought to think seriously of turning rascals, and blackguards, ns the readiest way to achieve distinction. Several Radical papers in this State have expressed a preference for Hon. Win. D. Kelly, for next President, and Fred Douglass, negro, for .Vico Presi dent. We think they make a. mistake —Douglass should be named for the first position.and Kelly for the second. Some South Carofina'nogroe.s have re turned from Liberia with discouraging reports.

The ground is expressly mentioned iu the order to be that in each of the cases, obstructed the cause of action adjudicated upon by ‘Judge Chase occurred between Decem ber 10,1800, and May loj ISUS, General Sickles’ Order No. 10, having forbidden, judges to entertain any suits for matters occurring between , .those dates. , The Marshal supposes that General Sickles did not mean to include the courts of the United States, .but these only of the States. Colonel Frank interprets the or der differently. ■ “ Marshal Goodloe has suspended ac tion until he hears from General Sickles or receives instructions from Washing ton, being anxious to avioid a collision, but is flnnJy resolved upon his. duty.— Chief Justice Chase is in Washington, This matter is regarded as a very grave event, although th’e impression prevails that the commandant at Wilmington has acted without the knowledge of General Sickles, who is confidently ex pected to disapprove his action. The , Marshal’,s course bias been approved at the Attorney General’s ollice, but no step will be taken until time shall.'elapse for a report from the commanding gene ral.” 11l ease Satrap Sickles concludes to re tain the unlawful authority delegated to him (also without authority)'!)} - the Bunin Congress, what is to be done?— Must the Executive and Judiciary de . partmonts of the Federal Government stand aside for Dan Sickles —ah ordinary Brigadier General, who, for mere parti san purposes, lias boon sot up as a des pot over sovereign States? Will the Federal Government tolerate sueli an attempt to institute an unlawful one man power, and allow its prerogatives and dignity to be crushed beneath an order of a Satrap? The people will await, witli anxiety, further develop ments of the progress of satrap despo tism. Pmjase Tell. —You are a Eadical—a genuine Republican. Tell us— How do you restore the Union?

Ax exchangesays: “Therecentrove iations in regard to the instability of Na tional Banks are exciting the public mind to a fearful degree. One of the most fearful things about the system of National Banks is the political power which they will wield in time." An other “ most fearful thing” is that their standing as national banks gives them almost unlimited confidence among de positors, who in many instances, of hue, have been badly victimized. General Sickles has removed from office a magistrate in Columbia, South Carolina, for releasing on insufficient bail two drunken men charged with as saulting a couple of Northern newspa per correspondents.

A schism has broken out among \he Mormons, many of whom are said to bo growing disgusted with the rule of Brig ham Young and the Apostles. Young Joe Smith, son ol the original founder of Mormonism, is said to have “pro nounced” against the church as presi ded over by Brigham Young, and to have withdrawn across the Rocky mountains with some forty or fifty thou sand adherents. The Mount Vernon Banner reiterates its former statement that General Hayes, the Radical candidate for Govr ernor of Ohio, is a large stockholder in a New- England woolen mill. Judge Williams, of Connecticut, the Radical candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, was chosen by New England influence. He will do for the “ stupid Dutch,” Butler After Grant. —lt appears from the Washington correspondent of the New York Herald that Butler keeps a paid detective on Grant’s track, and did so before the close of the war. A detective is said to have followed him to Long Branch and kept him all the tiino in view. Butler is after Grunt, in inore senses tjiu.ll one—but it is a very long way after him.

That there r might bo no misunderstanding, I here! handed Mr. Stevens my printed profes sional card, with tho remark that gentle men of tho press were often accused of violating private confidence —that 1 was there for public information only, and l desired him to eay nothing to me that be would wish kept secret. - He said his acts and sentiments were pretty well known— that lie hud no desire to conceal them.— The conversation then went on as report ed, with the exception that some remarks that hud no special relevance to tlio sub ject of reconstruction, were omitted by me in the letter. Among these was the remark by Mr. Stevens, when speaking of the acknowledgment of belligerent rights on the part of the South the Yankee government, that “ Tho hanging of Mrs. Surratt was a cruel, unneccmiry murder .” These were bis identical words. He carelessly added, “It is no use to find fault with it now. It cannot be helped, and I suppose was done to gratify a morbid appetite for blood on the part of some excited people North.” A Characteristic Inciurxt.—We have been told of an incident that occur red some days since in Charleston, ami which, as illustrative of the condition of things under Satrap Sickles, is deserving of publication.

Wo publish'belo^vthe admirable letter of GerrlijSmlth to Thaddeus Stevens.— Although both werboriginal abolitionists, y'qt'in wbafc noble Contrast to the present Vlbtvs df the forrqer stand out against the fiendish hato and malignity of the latter. Mr. Smith thinks it would bo better for us ami for the whole country to lend to the Southern States fifty millions of dol lars than to* wring from them their last penny. His allusion to the' “ States’,* of the South is refreshing iu these hot days when the hotspurs talk of nothing but '‘conquered provinces.” Mark hisslgnifl caulallusion to the enormous premium of gold over greenbacks and the rates at which wo are paying interest for money. Hon. TiiADOKUS Stevens. -rJDear Sir; You arc -reported in' the New York TW bitiic as having recently, said on the lloor of Congress: . “Hi is now held by one of thdhuost lib-, oral and enlightened gentlemen In the country (I mean Gerrit Smith) that wo should even pay a portion of the damage indicted on the rebels, and pay a portion of the rebel debt.” ■ Of course you dp not mean that this is .iiterarlly so. • My often repealed proposi tion is that the Government lend or give money to the South to help her to an up ward shirt from the depths of her poverty and desolotion. By what logic you were able to construct from the letter of this proposition your-figure of speech is for you, not me, to explain. lam truly sor ry.thatitis in your heart to hold up to, ridicule ray reasonable proposition. You are too old and intellectual to be mhking, such concession to passion and prejudice.' .There are two reasons why the North should.bo.glad to help the Holibb. First, the South is poor—very poor, and the North is ilch—very rich. Second, the North is largely,rcsponsible fpr the pov-; erty of the South. Our , fathers united with the fathers of the South in making thisaiundof slaves; and in our own day the North has gone with the South iu up holding and extending slavery. Until the breaking out of this war, every Con gress was for slavery." The repeal of the Missouri Compromise Was the work of the North as well as the South. t tfo,«too, was the enactment of that infernal Fugi tive Slave act, which even Abraham Lincoln was compelled by the pro-slavery sentiment of the North as well as the South to enforce so rigorously. With comparatively few exceptions, our Nort hern Colleges, theological seminaries, and political and religious parties wore on the side of‘slavery. The commerce of the North was empthatically in the Interest of slavery.’ In the light of such facts, it surely can not bo denied that the North made her self largely responsible for American slav ery. But the war came of slavery : and the poverty and desolation of the South came of the war, and, hence to the same degree that the North was responsible for slavery, Is she responsible for the war, and lor its ruinous results to the South. You call my sympathy with the South, and my desire to have the North help her, “Sickly humanity.” I,call it simple honesty. If my neighbor and I join in getting each other drunk, and he in his ;frenzy goes to tearing down my house, and 1 in self defense demolish his, I am not to disown his claim upon mysympa thy. Ido feel that honesty requires me to help him rebuild. Would to God that Congress were so just and wise as at this very session, to lend fifty millions of dollars to the Con* federate States—to each of them so much of it as would be proportionate to her population and to what she has suffered froin the ravages of the war! The share falling to each State to be distributed throughout her territory in loans upon adequate security. This, by proving the love and pity of the North for her, would win the heart of the South, and would thus produce a true and lasting peace be tween them. Arid this would be worth the notion if only in a, financial point of view, many times fifty millions of dollars. Gold would no longer bear among us a premium of 40 per cent., and oflr Govern ment would no longer have to pay 7 per cent, interest on its loans. m Very respectfully yours, ; '• . ; Gbhrit Smith.

Now that the latest bill of abominations has been put into shape, and gone through both Houses, there is nothihgjeft for the Mump to do, but to await its return, with the objections of the President, and then pass it over his head by the requisite two thirds* vote, which they will do in leas than two hours after it shall bqve been returned to them. Meanwhile, they will amuse themselves, no doubt by passing a little appropriation bill, tqkipg over a million and a half dollars outof the pock ets of the working people of the North to support Sheridan, Sickles, and the other three monarchs, in a style commensurate with their monarchical positions. Sick les drove a “coach arid four,” Sheridan ought to have a “ coach and six/ 1 inas much as he has done the work of the loy al Congress more 1 satisfactorily than any of his associate monarchs. Of course, this million and a half appropriation bill will be entitled, “ A Lull, making appro priations to aid in the execution of the Reconstruction act,” etc. It ought more apropriately to bo styled “A. bill, making appropriations for the support of five monarchs, and to aid in the forma tion of a Radical party in the late rebel lious States.” That is just what it means, and/disguise It as they may, it Is simply robbing the taxpayers of the North to es tablish the infamies of Radicalism at the bouth. The five hundred thousand ap propriation last spring was not a drop fh the bucket, and wo venture the assertion that notwithstanding the large amount now about to be wrung from the pockets of the people—a deficiency bill taking a 'million or more, for the same purpose will be brought in and passed next win ter.

Another X.o((«r from Ex>Coßiml«alon*r. Oul«L- vr General Robert Quid has written the following letter to one'of the editors of the National Intelligencer: > Richmond, July 18, 18G7 Mr D£ab Sib : T have r£ad the remark able discussion in |he f "House. ,Mr. jjl dridge is substantially, right in V hat h G said. I offered early Ip August to d c . liver all the sick ahd wounded prisoners wo had without requiring equivalents for them. I would have made the offer ear lier, but for the fact that'some consider able time before 1 had made an oiler of exchange, man for moil, to which I could get no respouse. I waited for a response until early in August, and falling to re ceive one, .1 then made the offer above named, at the same time urging haste on the part of the Unlted.btates government hs.tno mortality among the Federal prig! oners was very gfeat. During the fain again and again, urged haste, giving the same reason. I informed the Federal au thorities that if they would send trans portation for 15,000 men. to the mouth of the Savannah River I would furnish that number of sick and wounded, and that I would ilfl up any deficiency with well prisoners. 1 Idid notrequireacorrespond- Ing delivery of, pur prisoners, though i expressed the desire, that they might he sent. Ffdm early In August we were not only ready, but anxious to make-this de livery. ft was our purpose.'as well as our offer, to continue the delivery of the sick and wounded at all the depots of prisoners, and upon the terms mention ed; that is, without requiring equiva lents. Transportation was not sent un til December. The United States au thorities brought in that month some 3,- 000 prisoners to the mouth of the Savan nah Blvor, and received over 13,000 in return, many of whoinwereAveU men.— The 3,000 delivered presented as melan choly spectacle as Andersonville ever disclosed. Most, if not all of them, 1 had been brought from Elmira.. Some died between Almira and Baltimore—many between Baltimore and Savannah. Idc not believe ten per cent, of the number are alive now. . All these facta arq known to Federal officers. < Rebels,.may lie, but yet the fact iafully established by other evidence that the Federal authorities sent 3,000 and received 13,000. They would have received more if.there had been accommodations. Why was trans portation sent to’Savannah for the pris oners unless I had agreed to deliver them. Why were 13,000 delivered andbnly 3,0()i received if I insisted oh redeiveing equiva lents ? There is nothing in the published correspondence referred to’ by General Butler which, in any manner, contests any one of the facta I have mentioned.- General Mulford will sustain everything 1 have herein written. He is a man of honor and courage, and, I do not think, will hesitate to tell the truth. I think it would be well for,.you to make an ap peal to him, as it has beeorae a question of veracity. General . Butler says the proposition was made in the fall, ami that 7,000 prisoners were delivered. It wuh in August, and over 13,000 were de livered. If you svill get Pollard’s “Lost Cause,” and refer to the chapter on ex change, there you , will lind the whole question accurately stated: Every word of the chapter, is true, so far asit preloads’ to give facts. You caii make public ai\y portion of this letter, I defy contradic tion as to any statement x have made, and challenge scrutiny, I will prove eve ry word by Federal testimony. Who, then, is responsible .for the suffering of Andersonville during the period of its moat deadly mortality, from Augqsf to January? ’Yours, truly, R. Ounb. NEWS FROM MEXICO.
