TICE Post says General GRANT is "in favor
of extending-the right ban c d of fellowship
to our conquered fellow citizens of the
South." Certainly he is, if they come as
ends, and the great party that supports
him are with him in Phis ; but, when they
come as enemies, threatening another rebel
lion, and refusing to submit to the laws of
the nation, no man knows better than he
how to meet them. He settled them once;
and he will dolt again if they don't' behave
themselves.
THE funeral ceremonies and the inter

EUROPEAN FERMENT.
The Emperor NAPOLEON recently made
two or three little speeches to the municipal
authorities.of towns witere he happened to
be welcomed while on a journey. - An im
perial speech is a species of composition
which requires delicate adjustment. It
must contain neither too much nor Aoo
little; must leave the way .open to advidce
or retreat; to pursue peace or enter upon
the war path. It requires a large measure
of natural adroitness, combined with much.
experience, to so balance phrases that they
'may answer an immediate and pressing
end, and yet be fairly susceptible of a dif
ferent interpretation afterwards, under
altered circumstances, or when the oppor
tunity for explicitness patiently waited for,
has arrived.
The evident object-of the Emperor in the
speeches referred' to was to tranquilize the
public mind, by creating the belief that the
peace of Europe was not likely to be dis
turbed, at least by his procurement. , His
words produced an effect contrary to 'what
he intended. In plain terms, the Emperor
was not believed, but.thought -to be lying.
There was a time when the "word of a
King" was supposed to be synonymous
with truth. Whether the fact actyally cor
responded with the general apprehension it
would be fruitless as well as unnecessary to
inquire. If such a time ever was it has re
ceded so far into the past as to leave noth
ing but a faint and uncertain tradition of its
existence. Through all the period of _au
thentic history reigning Princes have been
expected to say what they conceived to be
politic rather than what they really inten
ded. Hence diplomacy was for many
ages a game of subterfuges and falsehoods,
in which neither side was expected to avow
the truth, or state what it desired, but to re
sort to all manner of circumlocutions, and
and to reach the pi - flint in view,, if it was
reached at all, by lucky blunders.
The Bonapartes never had a reputation
for sincerity, and they have deserved the
reputation that is attached to them. Lying
runs in their blood, and hasbeen unsparing
ly used by moat of them ; by none more
than by the present head of the family.
Hence his pacific assurances are almost Uni
versally interpreted, in his own dominions
and elsewhere, to portend war.
Hence neither the inhabitants of France,
nor of any other country of Europe, nor
of the United States, are in the least sur-
prised at ascertaining that while NAI'OLEON
was making these bland and pacific protes
tations he was putting forth vast efforts to
raise his army to the amplest war footing;
purchasing supplies in unusual quantities
throughout his own dominions, and sending
hither for many thousands of rifles. Of
course, preparations for war do not necessa
rily imply a foregone determination of
resorting to the hazards of battle- Nations
comparatively weak, and having bounda
ries , coterminous with those of stronger
powers, are often constrained to make exer-
tions up to the full measure of their means,
in order to guard against_surprises or to be
able to form advantageous alliances. France
is not under this uncomfortable and per
plexing necessity. At least the equal
of any other European nation, none
of her neighbors are apt to make
war upon her so long as she is disposed
to let them alone. Military preparations,
therefore, on the part of France, be
yond those of the ordinary descriptionS,
are held to signify a design to encroach
upon the territory of some neighbor, or
to domineer and diCtate in questions pend
ing between other governments. Nor is
this inference or conclusion mistaken. For
three quarters of a century, with brief in
tervals, the French rulers and pebple have
been moved by a deep infatuation to domi
nate Europe; to seek to territorial aggran
disment in all possible directions, to be
come self-constituted arbiters in all interna
tional disputes, and to coerce weaker pow
ers into entangling and hurtful alliances
with them.
Whether Napoleon will presently break
the peace of Europe depends, not on his
pledges to his enemies, or his allies, or his
own people, but upon his opportunities. If
he sees the way, through repine and car
nage, to the accomplishment of -any of his
ambitions he will not hesitate to enter upon
it, and to pursue it as far as he can or
shall find it profitable.
That there are elements of combustion, in
unusual quantities in most, if not all, of the
monarchies of Europe, every body is aware.
On the continent, while the spirit of inqui
ry, invoked originally by the Religious
Reformers, and afterwards intensified
by the Philosophic School, was • finally re
pressed effectually in the domain of politics;
it was allowed free scope and exercise, in
art, in literature, in history, and in science,
Most of the educated classes become deep
ly htipregnated with it. At length it became
the very atmosphere of their intellectual
life. The system of investigation
,used in
one department was introduced of necessity
into all other fields ofspeculation; and though
thinkers could not put into the form of books
all they thought and 'felt about govern
ments—the sources of the authority of rulers
and the extent and inviolability of the
rights of the people—they could not help
cogitating; nor could they confine' their
conclusions nor the processes by. which
they were reached to their own bosoms.
Thought is at least as subtle as electricity
or magnetism, and will run spontaneously
where it listeth: No fetters can enchain It;'
no walls circumscribe and shut its in. It
runs from one to another so unconsciously
that a person: who stops to analyze the on
goings of his own mind is perplexed to di
vine how he imbibed or inculcated a partic
ular idea. Wherever the atmosphere will
penetrate, there will thought go likewise.

PITTSBURGH GAZETTE : TUESDAY, AUGITSI
for the attainment of a better and ampler
constitution' of, government; and by anin
vincible determination, when the opportune
moment shall come, to risk' everything for
the achievement of political liberty.
This is why the monarchs are disquieted.
The people are not docile and complying, as
in the feudal ages. A consciousness has
slowly crept over them that they owe fealty
to themselves rather than to despots; to es
sential principles of right and justice rather
than to institutions that...happen to exist.
When nations have reached this pitch of
development, then they are in a fair way
to prove formidable to whomsoever shall
undertake to govern them by Divine right
or in virtue of any imitation of that ancient
dogma
In England, where for the space of three
hundred years, the right of the people, or,
at least, of considerable classes thereof, to
discuss political questions, and to partici
pat in govnment, has been established,
stilt more , important aA - antes have been
made. The growth of civil liberty, even
there, has been slow, but it has been cer
tain. It is instructive to note the varying
iaspects of this progress. The first perma
ent step towards civil liberty was taken
i .
b the barons in challenging the imperial
authority of the Crown, and in wresting
therefrom concessions essential to their own
o der as well as vital to the interests of the
asses of the population. After a-while
e organization Of the Commons was vig
o ou.sly assailed, and by slow degrees one
a use after another was lopped off, and a
more accurate and responsible representa
tion of the people secured. The end of this
matter is not yet.
For the last few years the efforts of the
Liberals have been directed, in a large mea
sure, to curtail the influence of the Lords in
the election of the Lower House. At last,
and quite lately, they have grown so bold
as to plainly threaten to strip the Lords of
all politi cal prerogatives, and to so relegate
them that they shall become mere appenda
ges and ornaments of social life; and
thus, create a Senate to which they - shall
not be eligible either by birth or ap-
,pointment.
England leads the continental nations in
this discussion, and conducting it with less
heat and violence, has attained greater uni
formity and progress. But the ultimate
end cannot be far off, measuring not by the
life-time of individuals but of peciples.
•
JEFFERSON AND MODERN DEMOC-
R AC Y.
Among the truths which our country de
daivd to be self-evident on the day in which
it took its place among the nations of the
earth this stands first and chief—
"ALL MEN 'ARE CREATED EQUAL.':
This was no rhetorical flourish, as slavt;-
holders subsequently contended, but the
deep and settled conviction of the great and
generous men who signed the Declaration
of Independence, as it certainly was that of
THOMAS JEFFERSON, who originally drafted
that eloquent and solemn state paper.
It is true that some men were at that day
in the condition of slavery; and no man
then living more sincerely lamented that
fact than Thomas JEFFERSON', as his writ
ings abundantly attest, and with almost
prophetic ken he fOreSaw and spoke of the
impending wrath of Heaven on account of
the great wrong. "I tremble for my coun
try," he said, "when I remember that God
is just." We have . seen and felt what he
feared.
JEFFERSON was longspoken of as "the
father of Democracy." This was claiming
too much ; for Democracy, in its true sense,
- l- is a PRINCIPLE, a thing of which no man can
,rightfully claim the" paternity. But he was
certainly—among the earliest and truest of
"DemOcrats, and the essence, the fundamen
tal axiom, of his political faith is embodied
in :the brief clause quoted aboie. his de
mocracy was a consistent thing— T his lan
guage and his life and habits we 4 in con
formity with it ; and his other farttous de
claration, " We are all Republicans, we are
all Federalists, " was verified in the history
of his times ; for in his day all freemen,
white and colored, were made equal in the
right of suffrage and in every other right.
In twelve of the thirteen original States—in
someof which the Democratic (or as it was
then generally called, the Republican) party
preponderated, in others the Federal party,
colored men voted just as white men did.
South Carolina was the only exception.
We often think with what ineffable scorn
Mr. JEFFERSON, were he now living, won't'
- regard the course of the men who have the
impudence to claim to be his followers and
of his party—men who, instead of deploring
the existence of slavery, as he did, for
years defended it and did all that they could
do to strengthen, extend and perpetuate it;
and who, even after it had been stricken to
the earth under the blended wrath of God
and man, because it had arrayed itself
against the life of. the nation, did all they
could to restore to vitality its miserable re ,
mains, by voting almost to a man against the
constitutional amendment - decreeing its to
tal and final abolition. And what would
SEFFEABON think of the slang that we hear
from the lips of professed democrats,such as
—"This ie a white man's government ?"
In•the eyes of the so-called Democracy of
the present day, color is the only criterion of
merit or demerit. Men may be traitors and
enemies to the Glwernmeni; their hands
may be stained with the blood of their coun
trymen slain in their wicked and inexcusa
ble rebellion ; the blood of unarmed vic
tims may be resting upon their souls; the
infamy of haying syetemptically starved 'to
death thousands upon thousands of prison
ers of war may cover them as with a dark
and damning mantle; and, worse than all,
they may , still: boast of these atrocities, as
they actually do, yet, if their outside skins
,are,what are called white, that is enough, as
they contend, to restore them to political
power i la the total exclusion of other men,
who happened to be differently colored,
who, with hardly an exception, stood true
to their country's flag in that awful struggle,
thousands of whom fought for it, - and many
Of ;whom perilled their 'own lives to 'feed,
gummy and guide the soldiers of the Union
whom the fortunes of war had thrown cap
tives into the hands of their cruel white
foes: Such is the blind, barbarous, sense
less rule upon which the party some
impudently, some ignorantly—profess to be
treading in the footsteps of THOMAS JEF
FERSON. "White and black, light and dark
ness, heaven and hell, are not more oppo
site than are the teachings of THOMAS JEF
FERSON from those of the present leaders of
what is called the Democratic party. ~
To this great truth, so solemnly uttered on
the day of its birth, we may be sure that the
•God of Truth and Justice will hold this na
tion. It is nonsense for politicians to pre
tend that only white men were
r meant ; for
they know, or ought to know, that JEFFER
SON and his compeers meant no, such thing;
and our God, by late tremendous judgments,
has taught us, if we are not too stupid and
obstinate to learn, that he meant no such
thing
The Post, yesterday, contained an article
from which we make the following extract:
"Mr. Grow belongs to that class . of men of whom
the Democratic party has from time to time been
purged, and who deserted and entered the Radical
camp, with all THE 55015 AL ont.ig urn ES AND CON
sTII UTIONAL DPRAVITT requisite to form ready
made leaders a ong their new associates. Butler.
Cameron, Kell . Forney. and many others that
might be named with Grow, make up the roll of
these mercenary apostates. who DI:,DAIN THE RE
,TRAINTS OF II( NAT OR VIRTUE; who make osten
tatious profess( ns of patriotism, but it is of the
I
kind defined by Dr. Johnson; who snuff plunder in
the distance, and readily sacrifice friends. party,
principles, truth, murals, laws, Constitution and
liberty itself In the eager pursuit of It: who are
hypocrites as abolitionists and intensely scorn the
association of negroes; who Joined in the higher law
cry and entored upon the crusade against slavery,
looking for the Inevitable result which such a breach
of the compact on which the Union of the States was
formed, must produce—civil war, commotions, con
fusions, UNDER COVER' OF WRICII RCHIBEILY ANU
Fil.l.Al: E. TO A'N INDEFINITE EXTENT, could bC per
petrated without fear of detection." .
Having lived in almost the same neigh—
borhood with Mr. GROW for nearly a quar
ter of a century, and foi• that while known
him well in all the relations of public and
private life, we feel constrained to particu
larize the two accusations made against him
by our contemporary, and to submit a few
comments on each:
1. That he is conspicuous for "moral ob
liquities. and constitutional depravity;"
and "diStlains the restraints of honor and
virtue."
This is an unfounded, wanton and critnlf
nal caluniny. There is no warrant for it in
facts, and no excuse for it in politiCal rival
ry and `animosity. From his youth up,
Mr. Gnow has led an orderly, correct and
virtuous life. His private deportment and
his public conduct are without stain.: Hon
est, truthful, manly, this is the first imputa
tion cast upon his reputation in the whole
course of a long and conspicuous career;
and this imptation is not only unsustained
by facts, but is absolutely contradicted, and
branded as infamous, by abundant facts
within the cognizance of tens of thousands
of th.i citizens of the Commonwealth.
2. That he has been concerned in "rob
bery and pillage, to an indefinite extent."
This is a serious incrimination, but no
specifications or proofs are brought forward
to sustain it. A-more flagrant and inex
cusable libel was , never perpetrated. Mr.
(chow Was never wealthy, and is as far
from being rich to-day as he was when he
entered Congress. Without a personal vice,
with no 1 - ;xpensive habits, averse to luxuri
ous indulgences, unostentatious and frugal,
he . has remained, as he started, comparative
ly poor. so "wedge of gold," and no
"Babylonish garment" have been found
upon him; and whoever alleges the contrary
is a willful calumniator.
TraiE's CIIANi:ES are passing wonderful.
Ii the pro-slavery days, ten, twenty or thirty
rears ago, the Democratic leaders through
out the North steadily appealed to white
working men to resist the abolition of
Slavery on the ground that if the slaves
sheath] be liberated they would flock north
ward of 31Aso . :4's and Dixox's line, labor for
lower wages than the whites, and absolutely:
drive them to the wall in all the leading de
partments of industry. A good many whites
were weak enough to believe, or at !east
to profeSs to believe, this nonsense.
Now, the table is turned. A few- days
ago General WADE HAMPTON addressed a
meeting-of black citizens. His chief argu
ment he put in these words:
"The white man will bring other white men Into
the country, who will work cheaper than the eulored
men. Ima few 'ears they will have occupied every
nod of ground where you now dwell. They will be
hired to the ow tiers of the land, and grad natty, but
pet..4lllly and surely, they will spread over the
country, and the inbred man will be' driven out, nod
will dl-appear as the Indlati has disappeared, before
the onward march of the white man; It Is the law
of God, and I.'lll be no us sure us there Is a (Awl In
Heaven." •
Democracy has ) matchless assurance 1
Northern laborers are no longer in danger
of an inundation of Southern blacks ; but
the blacks are in innninent peril of 'being
overwhelmed by a deluge of white laborers
rushing from the North to the South ! Can
impudence go any farther?
Mr. IlAmrroN and the rest of the patri
archs used to justify Slavery on the ground
that the whites codld not labor in the South
ern States by reason of the - unsuna-•
bleness of their constitutions to the cli
mate; and we used to retort that where
a particular variety of men could not per
forin the active duties of life, there they had
no right to be. Does he mean to confess
that he and they were lying . then, or to ex
cite something more than a suspicion that
he is lying now? •
The black race stood contact with the
white under all the 'disadvantages of Sla
very, and gave no signs of dying out, but
multiplied exceedingly. Endowed with
Freedom the black race is destined to exhib
it increased vitality, no matter what Mr.
HAtierxott may predict. That gentleman
professes great familiarity with GOD and His
-laws, but is in profound Ignorance -of both.
IT is said that'ldr. JOHNSON is about to
indulge himself in "swinging around a
small circle," in the course of which he
will make "a few remarks" in favor of SET
moun and By. In view of the Impossi
bility of securing the aid of WADE HAMP
TON, FORUEST and ZEB VANCE, by the re
petition of their recent speeches at the
North, the Republicans will try to be
satisfied with these,"remarks,"
which will
not fail to be of good service to the cause of
GRANT and the Union.
THERE are over thirteen hundred Grant
Clubs in Ohio, and the number is increasing
18 , 1868.
THE commission charged with the selec
tion of a site for a City Park yesterday re
-calved a proposal from.3lr. Pump WINE
BIDDLE, offering to dispose of his property
on the Greensburg pike, within the city
limits, at a reasonable valuation to, be here
after fixed, provided an agreement is entered
into that no intoxicating beverages shall
ever be drank upon the premises. Mr.
WINEBIDDLE has never before consented to
sell any of his desirable possessions in that
neighborhood to private purchasers, but
with considerable public spirit has deter
mined to dispose of his, land to the city in
order that a suitable breathing spot may be
provided for our overcrowded population.
If the land is finally chOsen and Winebiddle
Park established, the people cannot have
much cause for complaint, as the ground is
admirably situated for such purposes.
TnE Post yesterday contained the follow
lowing significant paragraph :
--
A A. GROW
"We ti.re not disposed to tell all we know in rela
tion to the organization of the I.)t mocracy-in this
county, bnt we can safely .assert that never up to
tills time has there been the same amount of work
done by the party. 1'
How mysterious ! "Not disposed to tell
all we know." Alas, for the Grant and
Colfax interest, the Post won't tell how many
Ru-Klux-Klaus are organized through
out the county ! We can tell the story,
however, and won't ask the Post to en
lighten its ,readers. The Democracy never
were so poorly organized and the lack of
enthusiasm for SEYMOUR and BLAIR forces
our neighbor to assume a Mysterious air
and make readers believe that the public
have no proper idea of the efforts being put
forward in the interests of the Democracy.
Good Mr. Post, try some less palpable
dodge.
IN 1864, the Democracy at Chicago re
solved that the then existing war was a fail
ure. In 1868, at New York, they declared
the present existing peace to be a failure,
and seem anxious to have another fight.
But next November we intend to teach
them that of all the failures they ever dream
ed of, their attempt to restore their traitor
ous party to power is the most complete.
They tried to do this by the force of slavery;
and when that failed, they tried it by the
force .of armed treason and a long and
bloody war. That, too, failed ; and now
they have nothing to fall back upon but
their piteable record as sneaking Copper
heads and whipped rebels. This last will
be a failure indeed, and the party will go
down to its place, to plague the nation no
more.

According to Physiologists, the human body is
renewed once in seven years. Every day. every
hour, every moment. the flesh. the cartilage, bone
and muscle of the frame are wasting away, and be
ing imperceptibly replaced by new, material.
Health depends upon the nature of that material,
and whether it shall be pure or,diseased, full of
vitality and elasticity, or feebleand flaccid, depends
mainly upon the action of the stomach. In warm
weather the waste of the system is very rapid, and
if it is not as rapidly repaired by the greatauslaln
lug organ, the consequence Is debility, emaciation
and decay. It is. therefore, of paramount import
ance that the stomach be kept , in a vigorous condi
tion at this trying season, and the safest, surest
and best tonic that can be employed for that purpose
is HOSTET.I ER'S BITTERS. This incomparable
vegetable stomachic gives unwonted energy to the
digestive powers, promotes the conversion of the
food Into healthful blood, (which is, so to speak, the
raw material of all the - solid porliont of the hotly,)
and thereby puts the system in the best possible
state of defence against epidemic or other diseases.
The strong require it to keep up their strength; the
weak, to re-Invigorate theni. It consists of the nu
rest of all diffusive stimulants, charged with the
Juices . and extracts of .the moat genial roots and
herbs, and is a permanent restorative—not a mere
temporary excitant. It acts simultaneously upon
thd stomach, the bowels and the liver, and is the
best knoWn remedy for di spepsis, biliousness. cos
tiveness and general debility.
CHRONIC DISEASES OF THE EAR.
In observations and notes taken by Dr. KE.TSERt
of this city, on the various diseases! of the
! car, he
•
says that nine out of ten cases could be cured•in
their Incipiency if application were made to some
responsible and competent aural 1 surgeon. The
Doctor quotes frem the opinion of Wilde, a well
known aural surgeon, who says: "I fear not to re
iterate the assertion which I made on several for
mer occasions, that If the disease of the ear were as
well studied or understood by the generality of
practitioners; and as early attended to as !those of
the eye, it would be found that they were lust as
much within the pale of scientific treatment. • •
Deafness is so common and so distressing an In- .
tirmity, and when of long] standing so Incurable,
that we cannot too strongly urge all medical practi
tioners to make themselves Amin Mr with the treat
ment of the diseases of the ear: •
The Doctor says that nearly all annoying Dis
charges, Duzzings and Morbid Growths peculiar to
the organ 'of the hearing; some of which bad lin
gered through a score or two of Tears, can be cured
or ameliorated by proper treatment.
