His addresses , have &fen, plain and.practical, full . p[ sound good sense, and have pleased the people. He an nounces :that hia pledge not to be a candi j": date for President the second time, rim made in sincerity, and that he still ad- heres to it. Whatever criticism may be indulged in as to President HATES acts, no • one can charge him with a design' to ac • complish 'a 're-nomination. Hence the pelvic believe in his honesty and unselfish ness, and give him credit for upright and . patriotic motives. CoL. McCLITRS has fallen out with the I'hiladelpbiaDemocracy. He informs an interviewer (as reported in the Pittsburg Gazette) "that for. plundering, thieving and corruption, the present Democratic administration is the worst Philadelphia ever had. He says of the prospects in the State that "there is no possibility of Ilsan's election, because the Republican victories iu Maine.; and California have had much effect." From which it would appear that the-Colonel's-summer sojourn in tile pure air of Montrose, has . "pnrged *his- visual orbs from film," and that ho now sees things clearly and correctly. In both these estimates tire agree with him. It isn't often we have the pleasure of agreeing with him. THE, muse of the .nrggro exodna from certain sections of the South, is as plain as noon-day i.un to the dullest apprehen 'sion, but a special agent of the Treasury department who has made an investiga tion by order of Secretary SIIERMAN, es: tablishes the fact in hia report that in cer tain parishes of Louissinia the'nld slavery fortniNoU , restricting tthi movements of theq:blacks by stopping all travelling ;negroes, and requiring them to„produce passes (Vim their employers, haire been revived hi full force. . • THE Prohibitionists are in the field with .a State ticket and the inevitable platform.

' • SHE fooled with a revolver with the usual result, A young rwcanan named SALLIE RODOERS, was in a restaurant at Reading, with HENRY W. ''REITZEL, brakeman on the Reading road, When he drew out a Sharps' fourbarrelled revolver. She took.it and askedsif it — isms loaded. Doing told it was not, else playfully-point ed the revolver at' REITZEI.4, 'Ana pulled the trigger. The joke was no fun to him as the ball entered his heads on the right side just at the edge of the 'scalp and passed through. It was probablirisivesti gating the question whether or •not a young man who . displays . his revolier on succh an occasion • has any brains. As REITZEL was not seritiadyinjured, the question was decided. in the negative. Mn. GEORGE W. Crimps, mf the Phila delphia Ledger', who is suppdsed to know as much of Gen. GILANT'S desires and in tentions as any other man, has been icter viewed by an inquisitive newspaper man," who wants to kilow all about it,. you know. Mr. C. says that the General "will remain in California and_ Oregon for at ,leaA two months; then go to Colorado and neat to Chicago, where ho will arrive in time to attend the reunion of the Abby of the Tennessee on the Zitti of No- 7 vegiber. After this he will visit Galena and settle down there in the seclusion of ,a country town to take 'a rest. • About next May he will visityhiladelphia,'as he will then be on his way . to Long Branch, where he intends to spend the summer. Re has already declared himself on this l atter point." IMS REALLY we had entertained hopes that the pedestrian fever had ciliated, but after the late exhibiticin 'at Madison' Square Gardens, in New York, we have renewed evidence that the race of fools is not only not extinct, Init increasing and flourishing. Twenty persons entering upon a protract ed walk' which is simply a matter of physical endurance, and dropping out of the contest, one by one,.tired, sore and crippled, is' simply 'a revolting spectacle, calculated to disgust every humane , per, son. Athletic contests, conducted in a reasonable manner, and intended to shovi - what.the human frame is - Capable of, may have their mils ; but exhibitions in which. the participants are expected to en du r e suffering until their lives' are jeop arded " and they arccarried off weak, exhausted and fainting, are no better than bear baiting oii a bull-fight. The projectors reap a pec9iary harvest from the gate money, but he public morals sutler. Tun Philadelphia Times, which is the superorviceable apologist for Southern vagarics.and excesses, tries td break the force of ';the ti,ogro exodus by asserting that it W r as in the beginning a heartless speculation upon the partof transporta tion agents and companies and land job bers, and that it has been encouraged by the cruelly,mistaken sympathy of philan thropists under the false impression that the negro was really driven away frerubia pld home by oppression, whereas he was only tempted away by gaudy pictures, of °a promised land ' where food and raiment may be had without toil that is always their price. The Timm outdoes itself in suellstatements, andpresarnes too much on the ignorance or Credulity of its read 'era. The testimony of opiression and acts oftlence practiced upon the color ed popu ation is too accurate and well established, and the' crimes too general,. to be successfully controverted. The , negroes . may have been unnecessarily alarmed as to their perrOnal safety, but it needed not 'the labors of emissaries to convince them that they had been forcibly deprived of all. their civil, and political rights, and placed in a condition nearly similar to their former state of servitude. The threatening possibility of Democritio dominance overthrew their last hope of the coming of a better time; and they are fleeing from the presence of the oppress- . or. The incursion of theusands of people, undersli ch circumstances, taxes too severelitbacharity and liberality of any community, hand it cannot be expected that they will encourage it. - Kansas has ample room and a hearty welcome for,all refugees from the bond* of oppreuos, but not always ire her people able to fui filtsuccessfuliy the promptingsof charity and benevolence. • IT is with feelings of regret that we an nounce the death of Hon.

Judge WoODWMID had beini unconscious and in a dying condition for some daytk ' WHAT STAl.ll4.Wiliafi fEM We have altiead, and heard a great' deal about the neeessity bringing the Republican party back to its original ground ; of • reforming its ,metliods and discarding the bad' ele rdents. There has been a'great deal of talk about this going back, to first principles and party purification; so much' talk about it, in fact; that it is rather smatter of doubt whether the men who did and do most of tlit talking exactly know what they are 'talking, about. And some= sneer's have 'aimed at the " stalwarts " and stalwartness" of • the =party. The men echo assisted in the organization of the party may .fairly be.assumed toknow something about its first es t Ate , plans its men and its meth Whed men talk about going back to the original ;purpose of, Alm party,- what do they mean ?, .; !: The original purpose' of the party was to check thejneursions of slavery into free territory. To- thatwprk it was adgressed as an organiiation, and it was directed; by men' wli? were not angels, but men with liuman ambi tionsand' passions ; men *go deter. pined to make it. an Issue in politites that free territory , should remain free, and that there should be no more bowing down to' the oligarchs . who had wide the republic odious and our civilization a stench in the nostrig of mankind.. Bringing the arty back to its old `holding ground, then, means treining it ass force against truckling for power, and against any Alliance of the Democratic party with .the oli garchs of ithe South. Slavety, in form, is not more; it is dead, but its . spirit ealk4 "peeping and muttering like ti• troubled ghost up and down half the area of the republic. The spirit of slavery. still dominates in the Capitol. It ~c an. no longer en slave the negro in legal form, but . ..it aims to nullify the act of emancifs tton Virtually by oppressing the freed men in various ways. To . bring the party back to, its original estate is to train its organized 'forces against Southern- domination. And this is precisely what the stalwarts demand. Wliy, then, shtOuld there be any cry raised against stalwart Republicans by men 'who insist than the party should be restored to its first estate? Who are the men who are obnox ious- to . these fastidious gentlemen ? Sucb i ) men as.ZACHARY CHANDLER, GEO. 4 ROAR, GEO. 8.. BOVTWELL, EDMUNDS, 60NKLING, BLAINE, CAM ERON, Gaow and others. But these 'men participated in the organization of the party; were fdremost in it."' directioi in its infancy and i young manhood. Is it proposed to drive these men out of the party in order to accommodate men' who demand a return to the first departure ? . Is any one of the men named less deserving Of confidence than of old ? Which of them has forfeited the confidence of the people ? If any 4 -let him be designated. What was the Republi can party in the old time if it- was; not stalwart? of what !did it boast( if not of its manly, straightforward fight against the apologists of wrong ? It was a stalwart -partf-in its cradle. It grew . up and increased in stalivort ness, Every year of its life was -marked by an increased disgasitioa to make war without truce or parley. It scorned trick and, stilifertnge;tlt. scorned to gain anything by cloakv ing its , designs. It mule war upon oligarchs, upon a lo* order of CiViS: ZatiOn. Wherever wrong lifted its head it struck.. It struck . hard. It called- things by their right names-. It arraigned the Democratic party for its base subserviency to Southern rule. And ,it demanded that, the control of the government should be enjoyed by men of conscience, who , would not sacrifice the common weal for power and plunder. Very well. The' stalwart pretiosi7 tion is to renew the conflict and, car ry it forward until a higher civiliza tion shall prevairall over the land. The men who led iii 1854 and until the end of the war, ire good enough to' lead now. Some of them, are dead, but enough survive to do,good work. Such of them as remain true to the original purpose. of the party are to-, day sneered at. as "stalwarts." That is eirivalent to calling them honest and earnest. Such men " are-never in excess anywhere. Political Miss Nancyism may object to them, but they cannot be ignored: We have heard enough aloout conciliation and hand-shaking across the bloody chasm—enough to turn the stomachs - of sensible men,who knotthat there itr no more' bkicsly chasm now than _there was befotili`gte War.

It might ,be supposed that a people, who after years. of warfare, and after undergo: ing great privations ; had y kroken the yoke of the oppress4,Avould have testified their 'joy aiixt gratitude by thosening the fetters ; (O .- the bondsman and setting him free. Public septa went at that time was not ripe for such an tact. The irrepressible con flict tad not been inaug,nrated. But the moral forces were at work as silent and irresistible in their opera tions.as the laws Of nature, and soon brought i on the -discussion which re sulted n gradual emanciPhtion in the Northern States, and in' awaken ing in, the minds of many Southern statesmen a quickening of conscience, which brought lout the condemnation Of the institution, and plans for its ultimate extinguishment. Unfortunately, cotton-planting and slave-breeding becae profitable, and the moral bearings t iof the question were swallowednp - or forced Out - a sight by considerations, of icterest, while as a political element slaVery by consolidating the'South, became powerful and aggressive. New fields were 'acquired, to make servile labor profitable, and 'new con Cessions de manded and conceded, to,make more —l kablei the grasping and arrogant po litical power of the slave 'oligarchy. Two years before the tiring on. Sumpter,-which was the death-knell of slavery, the institution, never seemed more firmly fixed upon our soil. The aristocracy it created were never more insolent nor rapacious in, their demands. They had succeeded in destroying the compact which re stricted the Spread of slavery into free territory, and, were confident ofl their ability to establish the right to' carry it into all Territories of the Nation. Doughfacism was rampant in the North,'and it seemed as if the day of triumph . for slavery had come: But "God works -in a mysterious way wonders to perform,", and underneath this. apparent triUmpli; lying close to the snrface, werein. operation the moral influences which were gradually but certainly destined to overthrow 'slavery. The Wrepressi ble 'conflict, which had ,been silently waged by moral causes, wa4recipi tated by the madness of the slave holdtrs into the: dreadful arbitra-, went of the sword, and the arbitrary' domination which threatened to con trol the whole country, was broken on the field of bloody battle. . The arrogance of - fancied power and as hamed auperiority, accomplished in a short time, the- results which 1t half century of unwearied, and persistent effort on the part of t philanthropic and conscientious individuals had failed to achieve. The sted„.it is true, was sown by those who feared not to denounce the crime/but apparently they :had made but little progress towards ;its eradieation,when its sup porters and friends, by their unlaw-. ful acts; brought down upon- them selves condign , and fearful punish ment: Whht religion and juitiee, failed - to accomplish, 'rebellion and injustice secured to the 'colored race.' The act / of emancipation was born amidst / the throes of civil war, and the sulferinp of the country.

"of_ the ex tent' to . Which the Republican party is prepared to go in the - destructiou of civil liberty." Cuitiugais ideaof civil : liberty, it will he noticed; seems to be the kind. of, generoqs freedom which allows a Democratic , rritlian to go about banging Repnbliair men, women and children with shot-guns With perfect iinmunity punish: ment. CHALMERS alsc positively in sisks that the Republican press wants to abolish the Jury system in the South; but this is not exactly the case. - -What the loyal pecoplo..of_! , ,he country want is the laws ( „oE. the Southern States against murder : shall be enforced by Ulb methods' which thosc laws provide. The men who bring the laws of , Missisirppi into contempt are jurymen who acquit ,Democratic editors in defiance of the evidence, and men like Cuacluzas Who apologize for such conduct bi- eause the jurymen and , the murderer alike belong to a political party which gave Cu minas a seat in Con• gress to which'he was never elected. TIIEROS much Well-meaning talk in favor of beginning at once to se cure a Rep.ublican majority, in the next Congress. It is claimed that is case a Democratic President is eltet .ed in 18s0 a-Republican 'Congress will be a much-needed check upon him and his Southern supporters. This is all very true and sound, but it is also tree that there is nothing gained in fighting a battle in advanc - ii The.newCougress ,wilt not be elect ed until next year, did the:best way 'to get ready for the contest then is 'to win the battles which are engaged in now.
