My best wishes, however, will be with you, and with all who are associated with you, in vindicating the Constitution and maintaining the integrity of the Union.— 1 have never believed that a State has the right to withdraw from the Union, nor do I believe the Federal Government has any authority to exclude or expel a State from the Union. I am therefore no se cessionist — lam no.

Effort* had been made to impose a Con stitution npon the people of Kansas with out their consent and against their will.— They resisted the efforts to invade their rights, and they have tny sympathy and support in that resistance Hut the Radical element of the Repub lican party, which for the last three years had control of that organization, unmind ful of the professions of regard for popular rights and Stale rights, and of its avowed opposition to Federal aggression, hss been engaged in greater outrages upon popular rights and State rights, and in a more ar bitrary and despotic exercise of Federal power, than was ever attempted by "bor der ruffians," or those who have abused the authority of the General Government at any former period. A party so lalse to its professions, and to the principles which led to its organiza tion, is not deserving of public confidence.

Correspondence. LACETVILLE, Oct. 30th 1868. MR. EDITOR, This large and prosper ous town was in a high state of excitement yesterday evening. The Democrats must be alert. The Republican forces were rallied in large numbers to organize a Grant ami C< 1-x C lub and elect the officers thereof. In their dire necessity, ant! looking for watd to November, when Seymour and Rlair will cro-s that Rubicon impossible to the '•General" and his vice, they are ma king stienous efforts to stem the current of popular opinion, and they would have been succ. ssful, had the meeting presented fewer adolescent features. The numtier being a bak'-r's dozen minus five, and had t'-ey only been able to obtain the presence of i scallawag or nigger from the unco.i strucud States to shed the light of his countenance as president of the organiza tion.

A* an indwt of popular feeling the sales of Flags have been in the ratio 16 Sevmour and Rlair to one of Grant and Colfax, and several adherents of Radical ism disgusted with their party and convin ced of its impotency have joiued our ranks and are now acknowledged as types of the Caucasian race.

The Wyoming Metallic Paint Company was incorporated in New York, before the close of the Legislative session of 1868. - The fact of the existence of an immense bcil of pure metallic oxides, which after extended experiments proved to be vastly superior for the put poses of pamtt to any other knowo deposits, and the additional tact that mechanical >kill had devised new and simple methods wlieieby this vast sup. ply of crude material could be rapuilv con verted into a finer variety • f mineral paint than had hitherto been offered in the maikel—having been brought to the knowledge of several parties in the City of N. York They were easily induced to exam inr the subject in ts various beatings witli a view to investments if satisfied that capital employed for the purpose of de veloping the resources which seemed to be at their disposal, would meet with a fair return Corupetant judges were sent to Nicholson to examine the mineral, they reported the deposit practically inex haustible and the material superior to any in the market, Tue committee selected to inquire into the cost of manufacturing the crude oxide into paint, as well as concern ing the amount ot similar paints annually consumed, and the probable profit which would result from the enterprise, express ed themselves astonished at the prospect which was presented bv the existing facts. It was tound that so gle bonnes in N'-w York, sold annually hundreds of tons ot an inferior mineral paint at prices enor mously above the cost of production. It was discovered by recent improvements in machinery and processes, a product vastly superior to any in the market, could he secured at a much less cost. It was found moreover that no deposit of sub stance at all suited to the purposes of a paint, had as yet been discovered contain ing the same valuable prop-rties peculiar to this. Resides being chiefly composed ot iron, which alone eminently adopts it to roofing or fire proof paint, as well n> lor all purposes whep severe use and ex posure must be met with, it is found to possess an oily quality which renders far 1 >s pil necessary to prepare it for use.— This was deemed an important consider ation. The result was the incorporation of the company with abundance of capital to prosecuie the work. 1 lie objects .for which the company secured its chatter, were the lusnufscture and sale ot metallic paint, this it is empowered to do by law tor a perio lof fifty years. That the vast di-po tot mineral in its possession wdl be exhausted during this period is by no means probable. Enough has been done to demonstrate the utter impossibility of exhausting it, however extensive the work* and however great the demand. Y'et the demand is gigantic. The uses to which this paint is adapted are numerous and daily extending It resists the elements and storms uninjured before the exposure of years, extremes of best and cold affect it not, the storms heal upon it harmlessly, fire is repelled by it as bv a plaiting of steel, it is a complete armor of defence against every destroying agent, for all wooden structures. Aside from the great superiority of the . material as prepared in the laboratory of; nature, the system ot preparation adopted by the company insures a paint of unvary- < ing excellence and of small cost. What is known as the "Dodge Process" is exclu- j nvelv employed by this company, it may be briefly described as follows; First, the mineral which as it comes from the mine is damp and could not therefore be ground and bolted success- , fully, is dried by being passed through a simple revolving furnace, it is then reduc ed to coarse fragment* by a powerful crushing machine and subsequently run through the grinders from which it passes to the bolts, from whence it issues in the form of n absolutely impalpable powder ready for use. By the system adopted, all costly hand labor is avoided and steam is made to do the work. In other paint mills no crushers are employed, but the mineral is broken by hand process and is subse quently ground between burr stones which tpeedly become dull and worn, and must be constantly sharpened or re-picked, thi* entails upon the owners great labor atid oost, wbile the product is vastly inferior. The crushers and grinders used by the WYOMING COMPANY are faced and shod in such a manner that the wearing parts can be almost instantly replaced when im paired by use, and wi'li a trifling cost.— The great points then which the officers of the WYOMING METALLIC PAINT COM PANY seek to present to purchasers of this variety of paint are ; First, that experiments and annalvsis abundantly prove that no deposit of min eral, suitable when manufactured, to all the purposes of a paint, of equal value with the deposit in the possession of this company, has yet been discovered, and : Second, that by the processes which they employ, labor is so saved aud st.-am power is so employed and utilised as to practically place their product beyond competition in price. These are facts which will appeal to ! anv consumer, and are abundantly sus tained by evid noe. In view of the facts and the testimony supporting them, it is uot too much to say, that the com pany feels justified in asserting that it in tends to supply the entire demand for this variety of paint and to drive from the market the crude inferior and costly min eral paints, which have heretofore been sold in such immerse quantities and at such exorbitant rates, and this will be clone as it should be, by furnishing a vast ily superior article at one half the price, i and by convincing the public of the ability 'ol the company to do this for a certainty, lif need be.

As the Radicals have been laboring so industriously to provide tht Governor Sevmour is not a loyal man, and that du ring the war he airayed himself in oppo sition to the cauxe of the Union, we pre sent the following incident for their xpe cial consideration at (his t'.me.

Curtin, then Governor of Pennsylvania, vixited Camp Curtin, llarrixbnrg. This visit was occasioned by the disinclination of the Pennsylvania volunteers to enlist, ex cept for the expulsion of Leu from Pennsylvania. Governor Curtin, in com pany with another gentleman, role into camp in an open barouche to see the of ficers, and was stopped on his way by the soldiers and called on for a speech Raising in his carriage, hejspoke substantially as follows: FKI.LOW-CITIZKNS OF THE VOLUNTEERS OF PENNSYLVANIA: I came here to-day to see your officers, who ought to he here to make their complaint in form. I have a right to expect the confidence of the volun tecrs of Pennsylvania, for I have n-ver broken faith with them. I assure you, you will he rstained just long enough to repel the present invasion—so long—no longer, be it sixty days, or thirty, or ten. Rut we cannot draw your pay unless you conform to the regulations ot the army, and enter your name in regular form. Then turning in his carriage and point ing to the white tents of the New Y oik troops on the bill across the river, he ex claimed- Look at the crowning of yonder hill ! There are the troops of our sister New Y'ork, defending our frontier, where sou ought now to he, instead of wrangling here about how you will enlist. Great God ! What arc you doing ? Thirteen regiment* from. Ntio York already on the ground, and in front, while not a regiment in Penn sylvania is yet ready ! Soon after Governor Curtin appeared on the hill .on the opposite side of the riv er, rode inside the fort, iuto the midst of the New Y'ork troops, who poured out from their tents, and loudly called on the Governor for a speech. • Again rising in his carriage, with his hat in bis hand, he spoke as follows: SOLDIERS OF NF.\V YORK: Pennsylva nia hud a right to expect that lier sis'ei j New York would come (o her aid, but she 1 did not bave the right to expect that New- York troops would be here on onr soil. <>e | cupying the front of her defense, before her own troops were on the ground.

Again I thank you ! And with a graceful bow and wave of his hat, the Governor resumed his seat in the . carriage. | A Nut For Radical Temperance Men to Crack.
