Tim 'VIRGINIA rebels have already given

And every vote for these is a vote to repu

their widows or orphaned children of the
pittance which a nation's bounty accords
for their relief from starvation.
THE BLanis regard their prospects in
Pennsylvania as desperate. MONTGOMERY
complains that money is hard tovget, the
New Yorkers-contributing nothing, so that,
as he- expressed it, the canvass was "hard
work, and up-hill at that." As for -Fitaxx,
he is said to have told his friends in Wash

next week.
Nosm L ei' the Democratic orators, who
ever that rsETIIOUE was loyal during the

from the very face of the Southern rebels, to

SENATOR WILSON
Speaks to-night at the City Hall. Let us
give this distinguished cluunpion of Free
Labor, of Honest Labor, of ;intern-
gent Labor, such a rousing recep
tion as shall convince him that the
manufacturers, mechaics and operatives Of
this industrious centre have justly earned
their Pre.eminence in the National markets.
Let him see that we have the brains to con
ceive, the nerve to sustain and the hands to
execute ; that we area thinking as 'well as a
doing people ; that 'with clear heads and
strong hands, we have hearts in the right
place, and that we; who live by the Law of
Honest work, know how to appreciate and
honor the man whorri Honest Work has self
made.. HENRI Y'ILSON is not Sex CAnnY
nor GEORGE H. PREDELTON, but he has, in
his own personal and practical history,
quite as good a title to talk to workingmen
of their rights and duties in this crisis.
Honor him to-night, fellow-citizens, and you
will honor yourselves.
FORBEARANCE NOT A VIRTUE
Whoever may have witnessed the infa•
mously brutal and unprovoked assault made
upon the Republican procession at and near
the intersection of Wylie with Tunnel
street, last evening, will admit that forbear
ance with the blackguards, some of whom
made that attack; has ceased to be a virtue.
The Mayor can, but apparently will not,
protect- Union men in the peaceable and
quiet, enjoyment of their public rights. He
seems to have reaped—from the fiasco which
thus far has been made of the pro
ceedings to • ventilate and punish the
parties to the illegal assault upon an unof
fending lady, committed in accordance with
bis official orders—fresh excuses for signal
izing his inefficiency for good, or his ample
sufficiency for mischief, and 'hip "friends"
in the purlieus of the old Third ward and
elsewhere take the fullest license in outrage
against Republican gatherings. ' We are
now free to say to our friends that the right
of self-defence is inalienable, and the time
has come for its exercise. Be pre
pared for all such c attacks hereafter,
and, when repeated, go in and clean out the
crowd who assault you. You have in vain
demanded legal protection; now let it be
seen that you can protect yourselves. Don't
go out of your way, in the streets of this
city, to seek difficulty, or to avoid one.
Go where your engagements or pleasure
shall call you, and maintain your right to
do so, in every necessary mode. The re

MORE RECRUITS FOR GRANT
We chronicle the accession of Judge
STRONG, late of the Shpreme Court of Penn
sylvania, Hon. T. S. Faitsox, formerly a
Democratic Senator from Philadelphia, and
Gen. SCHOFIELD, at present the Secretary of
War under our Democratic administration.
Gen. S. hasheretofore been regarded as an
extreme Conservative, and, when in com
mand in Missouri, was not at all in favor
with the RadiCals there-' We now find in
print his letter of May 25th, dated at Rich
mond, and addressed, to Gen. GAT, con
gratulating him upon the Chicago nomina
tion. The annexed quotations from this
letter express the judgment and hopes of a
very large and influential class of our
citizens' :
'The judicious selection of Mr. Colfax as
second on the ticket, and the general prac
tical wisdom displayed in framing the plat
form—that is, in laying down practical
rules of action, based upon the necessities
of the country, insteal of abstract political
theories—have greatly increased the proba
bilities of success, and at the same time
made that success the more to be desired.
I have always believed that the Union
could be fully restored - only by the men
who put down the rebellion. * * ,*
* * *Your election to the Presi
dency will be the end of our political
tronfiles, as your accession to the Command
er-in-Chief of the Army was the end of the
Southern rebellion. • '
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
J. M. SCHOFIELD, Brevet Maj. Genl."
GEN. 3LcCIBLLAN has done himself
marked honor in the significant terms with
which his letter condemns the spurious
Democracy of BLAIR, VALLANDIGRAM and
PENDLETON. The same independence and
honesty of old-fashioned Democratic prin
ciple which, in '64, lad him to repudiate a
part of the very Chicago platform on which
he had been placed, prompts him again, in
meaning phrase, to exclude rebellion, dirO.
loyalty and repudiation from his catalogue
of Democratic principles. Take his letter,
paragraph by paragraph, and read it in the
light of the New "York platform, and of the
notorious records of the principal leaders in
that
sassemblage of the party, rebels like
FORREST and HAMPTON, traitors like VAL
LANDIGIIAM, and 'repudiators like PENDLE.
TON, and it must be confessed to be the most
bitteily sarcastic and indignant commentary
upon the present status of the Democracy.
It is no longer to be wondered at that he in•
tends to remain a "private citizen."
CoNNiccrictiT is making ready for a place
in the Grant pyramid. Her people have
heard from Maine and Vermont, and the
flews pleased them so well that their town
elections on Monday. last showed large Re
publican gains. As usual, the Democratic
slate will be brought out, to prove that her
elections were of no great consequence, be
ing.puroly local, and all that, but you will
see the Democracy taking so much pains to
make thts appear as to excite suspicion that,
they are hurt in a tender spot. The fact is
that these town, elections afford a very
marked indication, that the State will join
her New England sisters in a solid vote
for GRANT and CoLFAx.

HUMAN CONTRADICTIONS.
I •
Human life is everywhere' full of striking
contrasts. SUme of these are solUble upon
principles which are disclosed on the very
surface of events; while others of them are
if not contradictory, defying
critical analysis and baffling sagest investiL
cation.
Perhaps the strongest presented in Ame
rican life is found in the calmness and be
nignty, the philosophic poise and Christian
charity, with which the Catholic hierarchy
uniformly treat the black race, and the un
measured contempt and hate, the inhuman
cruelty and absolute fiendishness, with
which the masses of their followers pursue
the same people.
Yesterday morning Vas announced in
these columns that the tatholic Synod had
promulgated the decre4 of the Plenary
Council at Baltimore urging.the immediate
establishment of - Ateols find ' Orphan
Asylums far colore children in the
Southern States. This movement is
not anomalous,. but in strict accord
ance with both the practice and genius of
the Catholic Church. With wonderful te
nacity and uniformity it has not only
insisted that all persons are equal before
God's altar, but that they are alike entitled
to the care and sympathy of the ministers of
the Church, and to the enjoyment of what
ever benefits arise from institutions of all
sorts founded by the benefactions of the
faithful. This is manifested in various ways.
While Protestant Churches in this country,
and particularly those in the larger cities,
belonging to what are reputed the fashion
able denominations, are steadily becoming
mere appendages and ornaments of social life,
—so . costly and exclusive that the poor and
those in barely comfortable pecuniary con
dition are shut away from them—the Catho
lic communion, as of old, opens the doors of
its temples to all, without reference to
worldly distinctions—and so Opens them
that pauper and millionaire feel equally at
ease within the sacred • enclosures. At
Rome, under the shadow of the Papal
throne—in the College of the Propaganda—
students from all climes and of all races,
meet in the same classes, on a 'common
level. The church is cosmopolitan, not
'condescending to temporary passions or
local prejudices. Like the ocean, it receives
streams from all plains and all mountains,
contracting it may be a trace of impurity
from each, but remaining evermore—the
ocean.
Day before yesterday Democratic proces
sions defiled through the streets of these tsVo
cities. As to numbers and decorations it
was a display creditable to the- enterprise
and liberality of the party. But, what im
pressed us most deeply was not the great.,s l
ness of the throng, nor the lavish expendi-,
ture visible in emblazonments and music,;
nor the enthusiasm which evidently anima
ted the whole, but the flaunting of legends,
mottoes and devices, unblushingly avowing
a coarseness of feeling, an illiberality of sen
timent, a blindness of passion, an invinci.,
bility of prejudice, and a depth of hatred
for the most lowly, altogether unsurpassed,
if not unmatched in the annals of human
ignbrance and defilement. Those divis
ions of the processions in which the Catho
lic element predominated were infamously
conspicuous beyond all the rest in thus dis
playing brutality. It seethed as if nothing
was' too low, or vulgar, or malignant for
them to throw into the faces of the commu
nity as indicative of their sentiments and
purposes towards the black race. Yet these
people marvel at the disgust and i contempt,
mingled with pity and shame, WWI their
conduct inspires among all classes of the
American people who, by virtue of better
mental and moral training have risen to
juster views of life and the co-relations ex
isting between all the members of the hu
man family!
Where shall.we search for the explication
of this anomaly? When we have found it,
what will it prove to be? Who will vouch
saTe Its answers ?

ACQUISITION OF CUBA.
While it is confessed on all bands that
covetousness is an indulgence forbidden by
the moral law toindividuals, it seems to be
about as generally taken for granted that
those aggregations of persons known as na
tions are at perfect liberty to covet as much
as they please, and to take by guile or force
whatever objects they desire.
Cuba has excited intense longings on the
part of the people and lgovernment of the
United States for many years. Its geo
graphical position renders it convenient for
us as a possession; possibly, under complies.
ons that may arise with other powers, an
indispensable one
Sometimes it has been proposed to ac-
quire the sovereignty of it by the payment
of a price to be mutually agreed ; upon.
But Spain, often exhausted and distressed,
has neyer been found so poor or desperate
as to part with this gem of great value. At
other times it has been determined to resort
to filibustering to gain the point. Expedi
tions have been set on foot, under cover of
various pretences, . to create a formidable
insurrection in the island, which might be
enlarged into the proportions of a revolu
tion; but all these efforts have had no other
result than to procure the execution of cer
tain adventurous gentlemen who mis
calculated the vigor of the Spanish
authorities, the temper of the colonists,
and their own resources. Then, again, it
has been suggested . that our government
Should spize and appropriate the island, and
settle the bill of damages afterwards,
according to the suggestions of its own lib
erality or selfishness. While not a few of
our people have been eager That the repub
lic should thus turn highway robber, a de
,
cided majority have been restrained from
consenting thereto either by a proper regard
for the dictates of honesty, or by a whole
some sense of shame, or by a fear of what
the combined nations of. Europe might say
or do. Notwithstanding all these proposi
tions, Cuba still remains an appendage of
the Spanish crown.
But Spain has just undergone a revolu
tion. Queen IsLism.LA has found it to com
port with her personal safety to take up her
abode on the soh of France, and the leaders I
of the revolt against her rule are now en
gaged in adjusting the preliminaries for a
new dynasty. •It is thought at Washington
they may.need money, , and be glad to raise
j r
it by selling Cuba. Hence Mr. SEWA D
proposes to acknowledge the revolutio ns y
government, and while extending that co r
ten, in true Yankee fashion, Offer to dr' e
a bargain for the piece of land he wants. n- ,
doubtedly this experimer tis well-timed. ut
whether it will succeed or miscarry wi de
pend not so much upon the 'astuteness of
Mr. SW,VARD as upon the need the Spanish
chieftains are under for ready cash. It is
not reasonable to presume in view of,the
enterprise they are engaged in, and the
II
manner in which they are conducti g it,
that they will cheerfully despoil the mon
archy of its best ,depedency. The f rce of
circumstances, however, may leave them no
other option. We venture to say that i will
be safer to Wait the results of the ne otia
tions, than to'rust ih.emiturelyr to a co clu
golf.
"Wno will make the war," asks Mr.
PENDLETON, "if we elect SEYMOUR and
BLAnt ; if we control the House of Repre
sentatives" ? He is answered by piLani,
who says that the President shall, with his
army, make instant war upon the lawful
governments in the Southern States. We
shall not heed the Senate, says General
BLAIR ; there is no use in looking to the
Supreme Court, say all of these advocates
of revolution; let the President alone take
all the responsibility, for neither Congress
nor the Courts can aid him ; he shall march
his soldiery from State to State, overturn
the new governments, and restore the lost
cause. Mr. PENDLETON knows that this
would be an arbitrary assumption of power,
not recognized by the Constitution; he
,:knows that no free people would submit to
such an usurpatiop, and yet he would have
it to appear that such an usurpation would
be peace, and the resistance thereto of a free
people would be the war which he speaks
of. How differently this matter is put by
another orator, who somehow finds himself
making speeches for the Democracy, and
yet cannot swallow BLAIR'S programme of
Revolution I Said Attorney General STAN
BERT, in his Zanesville speech the other
day, after advecating the election of SEY
MOUR and a Democratic House of Repro
sentatives :
Finally, put a Democratic majority in the
Senate, and then the go id work will be
finished. It will take time, perhaps more
than it has taken to do the mischief. The
process may be a slow one; but my Demo
cratic friends, if you are of the same class of
men as the Democracy of old—if you pos
sess the same steadfast, unconquerable
will, sooner or later success is ours.
That looks vastly more like true Democ
racy, but it is not tbe Democracy of the
New York platform !
THE friends of SErstoun and BLAIR have
succeeded in eliciting a sort of half-way
nalting endorsement of their ticket and
platform from General 31cCLELLms. He
gives Bum a dig, by insisting that the Con
stitution shall be firmly and faithfully sup- I
ported; he pays his respects to the PENDLR- i
TON humbug by asking for " the mainte
nance of the national credit inviolate;" he
expresses his judgment of V ALL-U:I3I6IIAM,
and the Southern rebels who framed ,both
the platform and ticket, in his allusion to
Ithe recent war as "undertaken by the North
for the success of Constitutional principles;"
and he disgusts the entire party by his just
compliments to General GRANT and the
"other brave soldiers" who "so ably com
menced this work : ::
If the Democracy can feel grateful to Gen.
liIcCLELLAN for all this, surely Republi
cans have no reason to complain!
SIX THOUSAND MILLIONS of rebel war
debt, four thousand millions for slaves
emancipated, thousands of millions more
for property destroyed by the avenging
Boys in Blue—every dollar of these claims,
in all over ten thousand , millions of dollars,
will be just and legitimate liens on the
Treasury, at the option of the South, and
in the judgment of the Democracy, as soon
as SEYMOUR and BLAIR shall be elected. As
it is idle to talk of our ability to pay all
these demands, the rebels will accept in
lieu thereof the repudiation of the entire
body of the National indebtedness, for all
purposes incurred, and thus be doubly re
venged upon their "Northern oppressors."

FROM PANAMA.
NEW YORE, October 6.—The steamer
Ocean Queen brings 5202,000 in treasure.
William Parken, Superintendent of the
Panama Railroad, was assassinated on the
24th of September by J. L. Baldwin, Civil
Enuineer, in the employ of the railroad.
The latter, who was sufferingfrom delirium
tremens, subsequently shot himself and
would probably die.
Political affairs in Panama are still nn
settled. Reports of a coming revolution
were current, and several arrests had been
made. The President had issued a procla
mation stating that measures had been
taken to keep peace.
The Republic of Colombia is quiet. The
report of the anticipated return of Mos
quera produced some alarm, but no serious
effect. The deposed President, Falcon, of
Venezuela, had reached Aspinwall en route
to Europe.
SOUTH AMERICAN COAST.
News from the South coast gives further
accounts of the fearful ravages by nunda
tion and earthquakes. Several vessels
were damaged at Coquimba, including the
American ship Black Eagle, at Caldera.
The sea drove the inhabitants to the
hills, wrecked sixteen or eighteen lighters,
and damaged several larger crafts. Twenty
lighters were wrecked at Carrisal Bago,
besides the American brig Dolphin, with
20,000 kilogrammes of copper. Many ves
sels were damaged severely. — The residents
of Valparaiso have raised $40,000 for the
sufferers by earthquakes, and the Chilian
Coneress appropriated 550,000 for the same
purpose. The Government also sent large
supplies of provisions, clothing and medi
cines to Peru.
Pblitical affairs in Chili are , unsettled.
Mr. Clark, United States Consul at Valpa
raiso, was informally received by the Pres
ident of Chili as Acting Minister during
Gen. Kilpatrick's absence. •
The Peruvian government is doing every
thing possible to relieve , the sufferers by
the earthquake and inundation, both in
Peru and Ecuador. The victims in Peru
{ will probably reach twb thousand. A
:change has taken place in the sea coast at
.IPeru in consequence of the earthquake,
the depth of water off the headland of Sau
raca, near Areca ' having been decreased
from six to seven fathoms. The loss'of life
in Ecuador was not less than forty-thou
sand.
—From Port au Prince we have advices
to October second. The Haytien man-of
war Galeta has arrived at Petit Governor,
from New York, with a large cargo of arms
and ammunition. She had a full comple
ment of men, mostly Haytien uegroes, some
English and French officers, and a com
plete naval Outfit. On her arrival she at
tacked the rebel cruisers Sylvan and Lib
erte. The former was sunk and the latter

NOTE:THESE FACTS.
The object of thin article is to call the attention
of the feeble and ailing to tAernaefeeit. Ordinarily,
business, pleasure, in short, almost everything in
this sublunary world obtains more consideration
than the preservation of that blessing with which
nothing earthly should be put in comparison, viz:
health. This Is a dangerous season, and it does not
find the human system in the best condition to defy
its perils. To use a homely phrase, thy torrid sum
mer weather •stakes the starch out of people," and
leaven them limp and languid. The fires of vitality
burn low. The naturally feeble aro unusually de
pressed; the natura.ly strong are not as vigorous as
they might be. Seven-el. hts of the community feel
more or less the intim nee of the atmospheric
changes which produce the tnalarlous diseases com
mon in October and November. It is as a :.ro calve
against the effects of the t r S changes tha
