far Soldiers I When you hear Democrats prat
ing about their friendship for you, just ask them
why they denied your right to vote while fight
ing under and for the flag of our fathers I
I No friend of the soldiers, or of Justice and
Right, can or will vote with the men and the
party that are frowning down all attempts to
bring to punishment the Sends who starved and
murdered our poor boys at Andersonville and
other Southern prisons.
Ur A late Instance of the old story of "first
pig, then puppy, and then pig again," is found in
the opposition newspapers. Is those localities
where it is hoped some soldiers may be deceived
into voting for the copperhead State candidates,
those gentlemen are announced at the head of
the newspaper columns, as Cotonei and l tauten,
ant (Mond, boldly, brilliantly and conspicuous
ly. Other Journals, however, have instructed
their readers that no other men in the country
were so despicable as the "hireling who took up
arms to oppress the patriotic people of the South."
This class print the names of their candidates as
plain citizens—W. W. H. Davis, and John P.
Linton. They are careful not to place any stress
on the fact that these gentlemen have been in
arms against the South.
The latter class we consider much the more
consistent. They are devoted secessionists.—
The first described are only unprincipled, un
scrupulous copperheads.
A SWLI.L4M' DODGE
The opposition politicians having spent four
years in denouncing the war and every useful
man connected with it, and having Justly earned
universal odium by their treasonable sentiments
and actions, are now seeking to regain power in
some sections by nominating soldiers as candi
dates for important offices. This shallow sub
terfuge will fail to deceive a patriotic people.—
Intelligent voters will not endorse the principles,
past course, and present policy of men whose
hearts throughout the contest were with the se
cession armies, merely for the sake of voting for
representatives of their doctrines who helped to
defeat the rebellion. While they will gladly em
brace opportunities to reward oar brave heroes
with official positions, they will not be betrayed
into endorsements of an organization which did
all in its power in the dark days of danger and
trial to render aid and comfort to the enemy.
Speech or General Sherman.
General Sherman, second only to General Grant
In his services to his country, in her great day of
danger, has been quoted with rare unction on sever
al occasions by those opposed to the Administration
of the Government He has, In fact, been elevated
by them into something of a sympatitt er with their
plane and principles; and notwithstanding he re
fined to allow them to make him a candidate for
Governor of Ohio, and even went out of the way
to decline all political offices, be continues to be a
kind of standard reference. 'They will not object,
therefore, to the following striking and valuable
points, contained in a short speech recently made
by General Sherman at a soldiers' festival, near Lan-
Caster, Ohio :
" When the rebels ventured their all in their ef
forts to destroy our Government, they pledged their
-lives, their fortunes, and their sacred horrors to their
cause. The Government accepted their wager of
; battle: Bence, when we conquered, we, by conquest,

issue, cent theirs only by our forbearanat and clemency.

Vail they had, and I don't want you to be troubled
in your nces for taking, while on our great
march, the property ofconquered rebels. They for
felted their rights to it, and I, being agent for the
Government to which I belonged, gave you author

"The opinion seems to be gaining ground that
the negro will be allowed to vote with a property

raise and precaution, many officers pow elected by
the people, such as governors, sheriffs, clerks,
will hereafter be chosen by the legislatures of by the
magistrates, or be appointed by the governors or
judges. The Bouthemor revolts at the idea that a
negro Is as good as a white man ; but that question
does not necessarily arise in a discussion respecting
political privileges. If reason and justice are hark
ened to, Instead of prejudice and patelJp. the negro
will be allowed to vote; and there is little reason to
fear that our elections will not result in the choice
of as good and as wise men as heretofore.
" A Largo numter of voters everywhere act, not
from their own knowledge or on thetrowu opinions,
bat by the advice and through the influence of a few
men in whom they confide • and I do not doubt that
the negro would be guided by as safe and prudent
counselors as more voters, and cast as good votes.

Attempted Mutiny in the Illinois
Penitentiary.
The Chicago Atonal of Wednesday evening, gives
an account of a bold and murderous plot to release
the convicts in the Illinois Penitentiary at Joliet,
which came to light last week. The .Tournal says:
The plot was originally concocted between a
man named Smith and certain outsiders, friends of
three convicts, to secure whose release he was to
receive a handsome sum of money. The first thing In
the programme was for Smith to obtain employment
as a guard in the penitentiary, in which he sneceded
a few weeks ago, and had been acting as a general
up to the time of the discovery of the plot.
guard
This manwas to arrange the manner of escape for
the convicts, one of which was a plan foi them to
scale the wall while be was on guard. This was at
tempted a week ago last Friday, the three convicts
whom he was especially interested in releasing hav
ing succeeded in getting upon the wall, and the tm
faithful guard firing upon them four times, but be
ing careful not to hit them Two of the convicts
succeeded In getting over the wall, but another
guard, who was not in the secret, fired upon them
from another portion of the wall, killing one of the
convicts named Strong, sentenced from St Clair
county; the other was pursued, caught and taken
back.
These circumstances aroused the suspicions of
Warden.Buckmaster and Deputy Warden Simonds,
that the guard Smith was playing false, and plans
were accordingly laid to watch sud detect him. As
a pretended mark of favor, ho was promoted to the
position of night-guard In the cell house, where he
could have opportunity to communicate freely with
the prisoners. A convict, who had no previous
knowledge of the plot, was employed to gain Smit
confidence, and to help "work up" the affair.—
Smith bit at the bait eagerly and at once. Another
guard was concealed under the detective convict's
bedstead in the cell, where ho lay three successive
nights, overhearing everything that passed between
Smith and the convict Smith, among other things,
told the convict that he was engaged in maturing
two plans by which to raise a general mutiny and
stampede. The first was to enable the prisoners to
get possession of the armory, after telling them
where the key was concealed; the officers of the
Penitentiary were then all to be shot, and the prie
oners liberated.
The other plan was to secure his restoration to
his former position as guard on the wall, where he
always - had eight or ten loaded muskets at his com
mand. Leaving the lower door approaching his
tower unfaatened, the convicts were to rush up,
seize the muske..a, gag and tie him, (ho having the
gag and rope all prepared,) and then they were to
protect the escape of all the other convicts by shoot
' Mg the remainder of the guards and officers of the
prison. In his private interviews with the detective
convict, these he detailed as his own plane, and stat
ed the amount of money he was to receive for it.—
He also furnished the detective convict with a bot
tle of acquafortis,and a saw in the cell, with which
he was to make his way out and assist the others.
On the third night after overbearing these plans
and confessions, and the mode of proceeding against
him having been &Hy matured by the officers of the
I Penitentiary, the concealet guard gave a preconcert
ed signal from his biding place under the detective
convict's bed, whereupon Deputy Warden Simonds
entered-the cell house, and, le sight of Smith, un
locked the cell and brought out the concealed guard.
Instantly appreciating the circumstances of his de
tection, Smith fell In a spasm of terror and conster.
natiou. He was taken to the solitary prison, where,
after the recovery of his bewildered senses, he Im
mediately made a clean breast of the whole matter to
the Deputy Warden, contesting everything as above
narrated, wlthoveml additional wrtlecilars, Indicat
ing that the fellow had planned and was about exe
cuting a plot that would, If he had not been thus
fortunately detected, have led to one of the moat
fearful scenes of massacre and horror known in the
annals of sanguinary mutinies, embracing the slough
ter of all the officers and guards of the prison, and
letting loose upon the usually quiet city of Joliet
and vicinity, an army of between six and seven hun
dred of the mostitardened desperadoes extant.
Smith was next day taken before Justice Benj.
Richardson, of Joliet, who, in default of bail, had
him commited to the county jail of Will county, tp
await the session of the Circuit Court, when he w
no doubt be granted the privilege of serving, in the
convict's garb, under the officers whom he conspir
ed to murder.
A "New Nation" Commercial Ar
tide.
The business men of the " New Nation," which is
represented by a restored Union, have a problem be-
fore them not at alt difficult of solution, and which
they can themselves solve, early or late, .as they
choose. The great question of trade rests, as ever,
on demand and supply. To create the one Ls the
duty of the consumer ; to make his advantage out
of the latter is the business of the producer.
Here, then, are two simple axioms, from him who
supplies: Ist "Always favor that policy which
creates a market" PA. "Always distrust that poli
cy which would decrease contetmption."
For example, to lower the wages of workmen, en
that they can barely provide themselves with food,
and are necessitated to cover themselves with rags,
would be prejudicial to the clothier, the batter, the
Leather-user, and all who produce and depend upon
the sale of wearing articles.
On the contrary, to afford such rates of wages t an
will stimulate and enable a workman to dress com
fortably or well, is to enhance the market of wearing
staffs, end benefit the producers thereof.
Now, as a further elucidation of this subject, we
need only cite the case of four million negro workers
In the Southern States.
Before the Rebellion, these colored workers con
sumed nothing from the Northern market, beyond
some coarse wool shirts and cheap brogans. The
entire four millions did not pay the North, through
their masters, more than an average of two dollars
per annum each.
After the Relydlian, the four million negro work
ers remain. They become Independent laborers,
and rise to the value of independent consumers and
customers. Each of them may be rolled upon, if
employed and decently remunerated for labor, as a
customer to the average amount of ten dollars per
annum.
It Is, then, the difference bettreen $8,000,000 per
annum and $40,000,000 per annum, that the North
ern producer gains by encouraging the policy of
and elevating the naked, ragged, 6
slam, Into the clothed, ambitiona, and. thrifty free-
Min. And the 18,01:10,000 will be • multiplied to
11100,000,000 annually, just so soon as your policy
shall extend to the Southern freedmen the same in
centives to accumulation and property-powsesslon
as now operate upon the workmen of the North.
Hero we arrive at the beginning of an under
standing. Here the intelligent manufacturer, the
enterprising merchant, may oak himself whether It
is wise to permit silly prejudices against blacks, or
ridiculous fears regarding equality, to stand be
tween himself and his business Interests, between
his workshop or counter, and on honest, cash-pay
tug customer—not to speak of four milllons—at the
South. This is a commercial question worth eon
side:Mg.—Nee Nation.

serenaded at Nornstown. Benj. F. Hancock, Esq.,
made a capital epee& of congratulation to the Gan
erel, closing as follows :
ORM:HAL : —Yon have been promoted and honor

wealth, that she appreciates Sour services.- .
General, I. on behalf of those assembled hore,con

flounced you the most worthy. We rejoice in the
selection, feeling perfectly satisfied that you will fill
the office as you have filled all the others with
which you have been honored—with credit to your
self and benefit to the public; yea, more, with
marked distinction.
General liartranft, when in the field we found
you worthy of our sympathy and support; in the
present campaign you may rely upon our aid as well
as our votes, as we are folly satisfied with the de
cision of the Convention that you were the moat
worthy of those whorl names were presented for
the office. We bespeak for you the votes of every
loyal voter in the State,and may yon bo elected by a.
majority worthy of the eminent service you have
rendered.
To which General Hartranft replied la the follow
Lux words:
litT FELLOW thank you most sin
cerely for this compliment to-night. It MUMS RIO
that you ondonse my past ;public life, andthat I
hold your confidence and support in the public
contest soon to be inaugurated. I thank you, Mr.
llancock, for the kind mention of my military his
tory. Of this I will not speak nor detain you but a
moment.
As a soldier, I feel It my duty to give toy humble
aid to the great party which has during the rebellion
so nobly supported the Government in the struggle
for its existence and national honor. It put forth
its strong arm and assisted the Government in 1111 the
our depleted ranks. If this had not been done we
would still be digging in front of Petersburg, or
perhaps been compelled to accept a dishonorable
peace. To do this In a righteous cause would have
been a disgrace to every soldier. If the soldier Is
true to himself be must be true to the Union party.
Hie pension list,his bounty for his early enlistment,
hisrlt of suffrage , his protection through Ule, al
a p pealto him.
need not say that every effort should be made
now to protect and encourage labor. You well un
derstand that it is the wealth of a nation. And,
while this is so, all from patriotic considerations
see that the returned soldier is honorably employed.
It is the highest favor that can be bestowed upon
him or his country. He will then soon forget his
camp life and become an industrious and prosper 7
ous citizen.
The military power of the rebellion is crushed, I
may say, forever, and the nation looms up amidst
the ruins more grand and powerful than it ever seem
ed before. But remember the spirit of rebellion is
still alive, and must be more carefully guarded. Let
it be shorn of all political power, for in that Is con
cealed all Its strength and danger.
I hope soon to see the immense armies of the
North and South engaged In civil and peaceful pur
suits, all adding their energy to restore our happy,
glorious country its former wealth and prosperity.
Allow me again to return my thanks for your com
pliment.
The General and Mr. Hancock were repeatedly
interrupted by applause and cheers, and the lot
prompts meeting shortly after dispersed.
Think of it !
The new York correspondent of the London .Times
lets fall a sentence in his last letter which may well
cause every American-to blush, and ask, in the lan
guage of the olden time, "Can these things be?''
The sentence to which we allude succeeds one which
enumerates the opinions of a " large class of North
ern society," to the effect that the war was unjust ;
the South was right in seceding ; the constitution
has been violated ; slavery is not abolished,
and la as follows: " A very large section of the par
ty called- Democratic, which aspires to rule the next
elections, and which seems likely to do so, maintain
these opinions."
And Is it possible that, to the eye of an intelligent
obrerver it " seems likely " that a_par , ty so charact
erized will "rule the next elation's, or eery elec
tions In this country for the next thousand years?
Think of tt l That the first popular effort at recon
struction, after a successful war for the very life of
the republic, should be controlled by a party com
prising all the men who denounced that war as an
outrage, and sought to make it a failure ; whose
only hope of success la founded on the sympathy of
those who are yet dripping with the blood of their
brethren, and whose treason, upon real or simulat
ed penitence, has only Just been pardoned.
The sole fact that the. Democratic party comprises
all the "Copperheads" who have hissed and crawl
ed and stung for the last five years, settles the who
question of the probabilities of their futureredom
inance In the councils of freedom and "right su
premacy." As " likely " was it that the Tories of
our glorious Revolution would be permitted to lord
It over Washington and his compatriots in the find
elections sncceedingthe peace with Great Britain. If
the so-called Peace Democrats really have " com
pnnetiona visitlngs" at last, and desire to serve the
country they have done so much to destroy, let
them follow the example of their Tory fathers, and
get out of It. We will gladly concede to them the
demanded light of difference of opinion, freedom of
speech, freedom of the press, haws corpus, Magna
Charts, (lots of It,) all they have ever asked,—only
let them get
There Is an authentic (thong's, we believe, unre
corded) anecdote of Washington, that, when earnest
ly pressed by certain parties to permit the return to
their homes of the penitent Royalist refugees, he re
plied with a mild but decided negative ; adding that
be had no revengfal feeling toward these people; he
hoped they would be prosperous and happy; he
hoped they were truly penitent. and that they would
lead henceforth tranquil and peaceful lives;
be hoped they would go to heaven,—but It must be

Colorado.
The telegraph informs us that the people of this
youn g. Territory, after twice refusing to do so, have
voted to come into the Union as a State, under the
conditions prescribed in an enabling act of the late
Congress. Her immaturity and aversion to saddling
herself thus early with the expense of a State Gov
ernment, have hitherto deferred her; possibly, the
exemption of Territories from drafts to fill the Un
ion armies, may have disposed some of her citizens
to wait. But, however caused, the reluctance is at
length overcome, and Colorado will soon be official
ly proclaimed the thirty-seventh among the States
composing oar Union.
Her history Is soon written. Though probably
visited by the Spanish explorer, Vasquez de Coron
ado, so early' as 1540; traverser by Pike's expedi
tion, dispatched by President Jefferson in 1802 ; by
Long's, twenty years later; and by Fremont's, after
a further interval of twenty years, this region re
mained entirely unpeopled by Whites, save a few
scattered and vagrant hunters or trappers (except
that a few small hamlets and their neighboring ran
ches originally and properly belonging to New-Mex
ico, have been included within its purely arbitrary
limits) until the Summer of 1858, when a few ad
venturers, who had mined in Georgia or California,
and fought in If e.g.% were drawn westward' to the
Rocky Mountains by reports that Gold had been
washed from their' streams. They traveled up the
Arkansas (the most direct and inviting of the rivers
that ran eastward from those mountains,) and thence
by Pike's Peak, (the highest in what is now Colora
do,) along the eastern base of the chain as far as the
Cherokee trail (half way between the two Platte.%)
thence returning to where Cherry Creek falls into.
the South Platte, where their search for gold had
been most hopefully rewarded, and there founded
the rough log hamlet which Is now the city of Den
