The Little "Arr4ngement."
--",'
Col. Wm. Brown r- of Frankfort,
Kentucky, a delegate Ito the Tamma
ny Convention, Olen ilately Made a
speech in which he exposes the move
ment to make Mt. Chase the Demo
cratic nominee for the Presidency.
Of, this Col. Broi • n we know nothing
except what his exkessions reveal,
801 this is all 1 against him. His
speech proves many things, and none
more aonclusivelY than. Col. Brown's
propensity for di c rty (scheming. He
lauds Mr. Chase for a Worthless nom
ination, forgettin#. that to secure this
the Chief Justice, tampered with the
Senate to continue in power a man
whose-policy of boar Pug rebels and'
frowning upon loyalty causes the
death of thousanfls annually who in
their simple faith! trusted Mr. Chase
above all other m i en.' It shows furth
er that the moral laws ate enduring,
and that Mr. Chalk after paying the ,
price of his treaeheri, failed to re
ceive the reward" and by betraying
the party Which trusted him he has
lost .the esteem of both enemies aid
friends. 1 . 1
I i
Our chief regret in referring to
1
Mri Chase is that he, has fallen to
that condition when ahuse is flattery
Hie assumed vii!tuesi no longer in
spike respect, no; can his vices at
trait attention. 7'he dervices he may
have rendered have Wen obliterated
by , his shameful ablandonment of
those principles iwhisih shed on his
native all the lustre it enjoyed. He
is a heartless, cold, calculating, am
bitious demagog* ; and for the
Presidency woulit sell his soul as
freely as he has sold hie fame. • If he
has one trait which distinguishes him
abOve all others it ishyp ocrisy ; and
he le best descr i bed en we char
acterize him as a frau
.. I
hit
rank
.and
little the Detnecratio rank
.and file had to doh with the choice of
SeYmour a how completely his nomi
nation depended 1 on !trickery, and
how 'shamefully • the (misses . of, the
party were _ ignored in i the " arrange
ments " which this speech exposes,.
we 'will leave Coli. Brown to tell in
his own words. We beg especial at
tention to the little : 4 iarrangement "
by which Gen. Hancock was betray
ed t 1 • ' i
To retrace myi path a little. I
wish to call your atten4on to the fact
that, &dm the time thei"Chase move
ment" assumed ehape, there were
two factions in tbe Democratic par-
V. 1 One was progressive, and was
composed mainly i of Eastern Demo
(Rats and business men of the cotton
l:
States, but it 'ad ;more or less
strength in every tate in the Union,
embracing, as it id, i nearly all the
Getman element f the Democratic
party. The other was reactionary,
and composed malinlyi of those Reb
els who are still uniepentant, who
leatined nothing, by the sad experi
ence of the war, 'and- of the great
mass of Western Democrats who

It was arranged at the meeting
,of
the peogressionisti to' 'which rhiive
referred that - -
a t petition which had
been 'imputed by German editoi
from Wisconsin, .and whick.had teen
signed by nearly every German edi
itor then inNew York city, asking for
the nomination of Mr..Ohase,,should
be read to th e ' Convention .by
Seymour as its , presiding_ officer, he
having previously declined to.nomi.i
pate Mr. Chase himself, on the ground'
that - be- was the President of the
Convention ; but. I have been told by
a gentleman noir-living in • New
Vork city, and whose veracity I have
no reason to question, that on the
morning of July 9, a short time be
fore the Convention met,- Mr. Sey
our read to him from the menu
ficript a very chaste,neat little speech
which he said he. would deliver to
the Convention when Mr. Chase's
name was brought before it, and he
believes Mr. Seymour had that speech
in his pocket when he was nomina•
ted. .
Relying on Air. Seymour and the
New York delegation the progres
sionista met in the Convention on the
morning of July 9, full of hope in
the success of their plan. But, a
counter movement. had been going
on. I was told in Cincinnati, the
other day, by a prominent Democrat,
that only six members of the Ohio
delegation were made privy, to 'the
nomination of Mr. Seymour. , This
was the game.
These men determined, with the
aid of the Southern rebels, toecap-
tare Horatio Seymour from the Rro
gressionists, and, nominate him,
knowing that this would so demoral
ize that faction as to give them ab
solute control of the Convention, and
that not a voice would be raised
when they brought forward their
own man for the Vice Presidency,
tolto had already been agreed on by the
readionina: It was the most success
ful movement ever made in this coun
try in a National Convention, but it
was a forlorn hope. Any moral
courage on Mr. Seymour's part would
have covered 'the reactionists with
overwhelming defeat.
Bat they knew • well their man.--
Ohio led off. Mr Seymour rose to
his feet. The stillness of death filled
the great hall. There; on that bright
July morning, in the midst of that
vast mass of humanity, in the com
mercial metropolis of the nation and
of his own State, to which the eyes
of forty millions •of people were
turned that day, Mr. Seymour, trem
bling with , excitement , and filled with
fear stood and pleaded for his char
acter. It was a piteous sight. The
poor man told of his promises ; that
when be had refused the use of his
name he meant it, and that now his
honor foibade it. Think of this my .
hearers. He stood thera t and pleaded
for his " honor." I. believe he felt
what he said, for to say that, under
the circumstances, ho was guilty of
preconeerted treachery, would be to
say that by his aide Judas
.Iscariot.
and John Wilkes Booth had lost the
lustre of their . infamy.
When he had finished his appeal
he was boldly told that, after what
occurred, his honor was now safe in
the hands of the ,reactionista. Ohio
returned to the charge,- the rebels
throughout the hall raised the same
wild and savage yell with which
Hainpton and Forrest had so often
charged the soldiers of the Union.- 7
It was too much for Mr... Seymour.-
'Braver men than lie had quailed be
fore-the battle cry ;:he hesitated, he
yielded, and ,then fled ignominiously
from the scene. '
All was now over. The' demorali
zation of the progressionists was
complete, and the Rebels had it their
own way. Hence, an unpardoned
Rebel soldier could rise to his feel and
propose the name of Francis P. Blair,
Jr., the very prince of revolutionists,
as the Vice President .of the nation

Had 'the- rebels contented-them

laws, and the refusal to comply, and
thus' thrown ?pen the general 'goy
-
eminent the initiative in actual war
fare, they would have drawn- unto
their Nippon, thousands at the north
whom war arrayed against them.
But the firing upon the flag of, the
Union and its defenders, the seizure
of United States vessels, forts and
word, the inaugura- .
tion of war, on the rebel side drove
from their friendship many a man •
.who would have otherwise fraterniz
ed with them., The rebels put them
selves in the wrong from . the very
start. .
Still, though our ,duty was to a
great degree made plain by the vio
lence of the rebellious section, and
though insult and contempt rown
upon thelag, the symbol, of the na
tional fame and honor, fixed the de
termination of many who would have
otherwise hesitated,_or went into the
war not only to coerce rebels into
submission, but to fix the 'disputed
principles that we had a right to
coerce them—a point to this day_ de
nied by certain political Dogberryit
we went to the field not simply to
'defend a nation, but to prove that a
nation existed. And, until success
fixed 'and finally settled upon our
banners, we had this difficult part' - to
carry, unfriended and alone. The
victory was accomplished in falai&
cation of foreign prophecies and
hopes, and in despite of domestic
treachery.
In material , resources ocir strength
was shown. If we had gone abroad
'for loans we shoeld have been humil
iated -by insult and refusal. 'Bat the
appeal 'to the loyalty and patriotism
of our own countrymen was enough; ,
and the confidence of the nation in
its government made the• national
credit unlimited.; '
The commercial firmness and pru
dence the sagacity and stamina of
the great business community, trad
ing, financiering and . manufacturing,
has been exhibited. War, being an
abnormal
,condition, disturbs all busi
ness relations. A continued state
of hostilities makes the exceptional
condition to the rule, so that the ad
vent of peace, disturbing business
contracts, is often even more .disas
trona to trade and 'industry . than the
beginning of war bad been. Through
all this we have passed. There cer
tainly have been failures and com
mercial disasters.'' But 'the average
returns of labor and capital have
been as good as during any other
eight years of our history. We have
not - had a "panic" or a "crisis" equal
in its disturbing effect : to) those trade
convulsions hid) , have occurred at
periods of profound peace. Indeed
we can scarcely be said to belie suf
fered from "panic" at all.
"Fore-warned, forearmed," has
been vindicated as a true proverb.
While political Complications have
'occurred which in France would ' al
meat have shut up the Bourse, and
in England would have made John
Bull button his pockets, starve hie
tenants and send his laborers to the
nearest. Union 'workhouse. the_ popu
lation of the loyal United States,
usually reported mercurial and ex
citable, have been phlegmatic to ''a
degree. 'The apathy of the people
during this impeachment trial passed
the step from the oubliette to the ri
diculous.
The threats and bluster of the
southern rebel's, and their allies, the
northern Democrats, _are passed , by
aii the idle wind which men regard

interests gto oii;- and all the usual in
tercourse of life proceeds as if there
was no possibility of any serious pa
litical disturbances. Business men
move cautiously, as'they have long
been in the habit of moving, and are
ready for any, contingency, so far as
caution and wisdom can make them
ready. The secret of this; confidence
in the future is confidence in the
strength of ouri institutions, so sorely
'tested, so gallantly_ defended, and so
triumphantly victorious. -
But it must be' remembered that
the defence and the victory in the
late contests were due to the estab
lishment and recognition of the prin.'

PLAIN PACTS POE THE PEOPLE.
Somebody hasrouped in six para
graphs a perfect refutation of about
every one of th numerous counts
made against • e Republicans by .
Democrats. The. statistics are from

year are only $12,818,446 in paper
whereas
and
years ago, on a gold
basis, and before the era of high
prices, they were $70,000,000 under
the Democratic administration of
James Buchanan. ,
IL—Since the' war closed, in a
period of about three years, the pub- •
lic debt has been *educed between
$200,000,000 and $300,000,000.
lll.—The Thirty-ninth and For
tieth Republican Congresses have re
moved $191,000,000 4 of taxes, that
but for this action the people would
be called upon to pay.
three years the army ha s
been reduced from 1,005;516.men to
about 40,000, and a proposition is

V.--The taies removed have been
all from domestic industry, from
cotton, from agricultural products,
from petroleum and' the tai' _upon
whiskey lea been reduced 75 per

Even succour; which is apt to demor- ,

GRANT AND COLFAX.
TO THE,WELBH OF ONEIDA COUNTY
DEAR VELLow Orr=Ens: :At the re
queht •of the Welsh Grant and Colfax'
Club- of: the city of Utica through its
committee, we _desire respectfully
and seriously to call your . attention
to the importance of each one voting
honei3tly, intelligently, and with pure
motives in the approaching election.
We will not dwell On the personal
Character of the different candidates
for President and •Vice-PresidentL
the United States, but we are well
convinced that , the political princi
plesiprofessed by Grant-and Colfax,
- are, more in harmony with the genius
of our government; more in unison
with liberty, truth and righteousness
and-better calculated to restore the
whole country to the full enjoyment
of peace, comfort,Success and honor,
than those professed by their antag
onists.
To us it is manifest that the prin
ciplesns well as the profession of
the DemoCratic party 'naturally lead
to the reestablishment of Slavery at
the South, thus rendering compara
tively. worthless the immense sacri
'flee in lifb and property on the: part
of the lovers of liberty and opening
the. way to amore Bangui nary strug
gle in , the future:
We, are well aware that in the
Democratic party are found the chief
defenders of the rum traffic, which is
the fruitful cause of such fearful de
struction of life and wealth, as well
as a hiuderance to all natural, moral
and religious improvements. k its
ranks are found those men thit would
rob us of the Sabbath, and turn it in
to a day of commerce and play: and
in it'is registered the name of every
unrepentant Rebel who lifted his
hawk to destroy . the Government,
and caused that war in which fell
hundreds of our brave Welsh.
They promite that when the Demo
crats shall come to power the taxes
will be diminished. But the history
of that party when in power,' does
not justify the promise of economy,
and the system they advocate gives
no ihope of financial .improvement.
They, speak of paying the national
debt in "greenbacks" instead of gold.
By this the value of the currency
would be greatly reduced; the wheels
of commerce - would be blocked, the
country wouldlall into national pov
erty, and its prosperity-and develop.
ment would be greatly retarded.
This is in short, our unanimous,
conscientious opin on; and, while we
concede to others the same liberty of
opinion which we claim ourselves,
we advise you one and all, as fellow
countrymen to vote for Grant and
Colfax. An di we heartily desire that
each Welsh voter in the United
States should do the same.

prompted them to this simple act of

.0 :; Hartranft and the Copperheads.
The copperheads are using the old
cry of "stop thief'} with the hope of
covering. up their extortions upon
the State treaury. Gen. Hartanft,
having refused to pay some of their
frau4nient claims, has consequently
called down upon his bead the anath
emas of their pauperized newspapers
and the curses lOnd and deep of their
rebel orators.
The Harrisburg Patriot, one of the
lowest and dirtiest o the copperhead
journals, charges Gen. Hartranft with
having illegally paid ten thousand
dollars mitre compensation to certain
investigating committees appointed
by the Legislature. The record how
ever, proves no such thing. Gen.
Haitranft did not authorize the pay
ing of these committees. They were
paid by the State
_Treasurer only
after their chairmen had sworn to
their . correctness. And . who were
the chairmen- of these committees?
They were Democrats--menibers . of
'that party in the Legislature who
had the committees'appointed, and
themselves made chairmen, for the par,
pose of making money!
The Norristown _Defender, always
ready to play second-fiddle iu malign
ing faithful public officers ; 'publishes
the article from the Patriot _with the
hope of making an impiession againbt
Gen. Hartrantt in Montgomery coun
ty.; " For the information of the read
ers of that paper,
however, we will
just'state a fact that Will not appeal
in its columns, to. wit, that.ef the
"clearly ten thousand dollarn" paid
"to special' committees of the - Legis
lature," six' thousand and twenty•six
dollars of it were .claimed and paid to
committees having
. Democratic chair
men as follows:
W. S. Gregory, a Democrat, was
chairman of the committee to investi
gate the amount of property exempt
from taxation in the-Gommonweulth.
Samuel Josephs, a Democrat, was
chairman of the.committee to investi
gate charges of discrimination in
freight.
George L. Delft, a Democrat was
chairman of-a committee to investi
gate alleged Interest :which officers
and directors of railroads have in
transportation companies.
If this money was paid out of the
State treasury it was at the instance
and upon the oath of these Democrat
ic members of the Legislature, who
certified to the amounts which were
ordered paid I'•
ONE of the claims most impudently
made by the Blair-Forrestaampton
party-is that it has been loyal through
out. They expect this to go down,
notwithstanding the fact that thpy

Subsequent, and might-have nipped
the whole trouble in the bud - if they
had inclined to do- so, and notwith-

now called -on to honor hurrahed
over the beginning of the war as a
political benefit. -
The, rebels in South Carolina cap
tured Fort Moultrie and !Jastle -Pick
ney. December 20, 1860. The gov
ernmetti, /was not handed over-to
Republican control until March 4;
1861. In these crowded Weeks Fed
Pulaski was taken in Georgia ; Fort
Morgan and Mcßae and the Mount
Vernon arsenal in Alabama • Forts -
Pike, Jiockson and St. -Philip, in
Louisiana ; the Pensacola Navy-yard
in Florida ; the Mint, Custom-bonae,
and Arsenal in Lonisianis ; the Arse•
nal in Arkansas, the revenue cutters
in Alabama. and Texas ; the United
States property in Texas,- and the
Star of the West was driven away
from Charleston. -
All this time the Democrats were -
encoUraging the rebels. Governor
Seymour said : "Let us see if suc
cessful coercion by the north is less
revolutionary than successful session
by the south.-" -- The whole , party
jumped to this note ,and any amount
of evidence is accessible.
The'copperheads claim, as we have
said, to have been loyal throughout.
In view of these patent facts, it may
be conceded, that they are wise in
theincorreeponding refusal to discuss
dead issues. Bat to prove their loyal
ty, they , must _summon these - - very
issues into conk. Democratic policy
was loyal. , We say that it was not,
and that a contrary policy would
have prevented the war ; or—the
war being begun —would have closed
it proniptly:
THE Georgia Bebele offered all
kinds of inducements to the Blacks
in the recent canvass and succeeded
in getting a good many of them. to
vote their ticket. They consequently
have a majority in either House 'of -
the Legislature if the Blacka who
re elected are excluded. - To get .
rid of Sambo, therefore, they vote to
turn him out, neck and heels, which
they have already done in the House.
This is no doubt _some , of the "kind
ness" spoken - of in the' ROsecrans:'
correspondence which the negroes
the - South are assured is to be , extend
ed to them. Wo guess that. after
this Georgia Legislature dodge, the
colored men will-not feel like voting , ,
for Seymour and Blair, much.
