scene of fearful blight and desolation. ras CON/LiCT BMW We are told in a tone of rejoicing, by certain distinguished gentlemen, that in the South, the conflict of races has already begun and that our own race will be driv en to the wall—that is; be exterminated And that. in the new order of things, a negro aristocracy will be created, and that negroes will occupy seats on the Su preme bench, and in the halls of the Na tional Legislature! What is this proposi tion ? That six millions of our own race, mein women and children, shall be t rampled into the earth , in or ler that an ar istocracy of four million negroea shall be establish ed upon their graves! And can it be-that a policy so mon strous in itself, so atrocious in its concep tion—a policy equally inhuman, uncon stitutional and unchriatian, can receive the sanction of the enlightened citizens of Ohio? Can it be true that the p , ople of Ohio desire the extermination of our countrymen at the South, nod that the black man's home shall be built tenon the white man's grave? Forbid it Heaven ! And in the name of our country ; in thn name of civil liberty; in the name of all we hold most dear on earth, I invoke the spirits of the mighty dead— of Washing ton and Adams, of Franklin and of Jet ferson, of Hamilton and of Madison, against the horrid profanation against humanity, against the Coratitution, against the Divine spirit of Christianity itself. CIVIL LIBERTY Although I commenced my military ca reer 'at fifteen years of age, I was taught from my earliest youth to revere the cause of civil liberty, and I view the continued suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, and the trial of citizens by military com missions, in direct violation of the Consti tution, and as a dangerous infringement of the liberty of the people. TUE PUBLIC DEBT AND TAXATION The National debt is estimated at four thousand million dollars. and Gen. Cox proposes the purchase of a district of coun • try containing thirty million acres of land, in order to create a " negro dependency." I am wholly opposed to that or any other scheme calculated to inc-ease the bur• then. of the people. and am in favor o an equitable system of taxition, and of reducing the expenses of the Federal and State Government to the lowest practica ble point consistent with necessary ex . Mum. OUR POLICY IF SUCCIMFUL And now, Mr. President, should it he the will of the people to confide the affairs Of the State to the caTe of the Democratic party, what is to be our policy ? Balieving that governments are insti tuted not for the benefit of a party, but for the protection and common good of the _whole people, the Democratic party will be *equitable and jist in the adminis trition of public affairs. Magnanimity is good policy in peace as in war, and a party incapable of magnanimity is unworthy of being trusted with power. One wrong does not justify another, and he is an un wise politician who would demand public vengeance for-private injuries. Our only desire is the maintenance of constitution al law, so that the blessings of civil liberty may be secured for ourselves, and for our felloW citizens of all parties. And should the people of Ohio call me to the perform ance of the responsible duties of the chief magistrate, it will be my earnest study to discharge the obligations incident to that poaition, with strict impartiality ; and to the full extent of WY offi •ial ability to secure the rights of civil liberty to every citizen of the State. Ours is a land of law and the magistrate is not less bound to respect its provisions than is the private citizen, and if he violates the fundamental law - which he is sworn to support, he should be held to a stricter accountability than he who assumes no such additional Obligation. We are entering upon one of the most important political campaigns ever known in this or any other state. Ile questior has been asked me, wh it aro the pros pects? Can we succeed? It has been my fortune to see many engagements on the battle-field, but this is the first time in my life that I have been put at the head of a civil column ; and though I am not boastful, I must gay that. I never knew the strength of. the respective forces wi th out being able to predict victory or defeat. And as I have studied the grcund of t hi, contest well, I tell you that the morale of the enemy is bad ; their strength bro ken, and their fl •g will noon be dragging in the dust, it you, the representatives of the people, will do your duty. I have spoken of the getlant men who went forth to sacrifice life and lireh in defense of the Constitution and the Union—but not of the nigger—and whle they were thus battling in the field there was another army at home, of civilians, patriotic and devoted to the principles of the old flag. battling for constitutional liberty. W hat we want is for those two armies to join hands and hearts, and beat down the hordes. I would say to soldiers and civil ians, be friends ; let no petty jealousies mar our glorious cause. Remember we are brethren and friends, and upon us, soldiers and citizens, rests the well bring of this land. Returned Soldiers It seems but yesterday that loyal ladies and gentleman, if we may use the exprep- Ilion, were sending mittens, flannel shirts, religious tracts, Abolition newspapers and election tickets to the plor soldiers. The mittens and flannel shirts were all right The religious tracts; were all right, and were very handy for the soldiers to have at certain times. The Abolition news papers were all right, for they were load ed to the muzzle with denunciations against Democrats, and their mi-sion was to incite mobs, personal violence and hate for all who differed in opinion with the editors thereof. The election tickets were all right, for they were lists of the names of loyal cowards, who dared sot go to war, but were willing to stay at home, get in office, and assess taxes on the property of the soldiers in the field to raise bounty that their precious selves might be safe. Of course thin. was all right, for it was sanctioned by the great and good Lincoln, and was the only means certain poverty stricken laborers in this worldly vineyard bed to obtain a living, and areas their • families in stylish raiment, or pay for beer, tangle•leg whiskey, or for the sup port of shiftless editors who would die but for the charity bestowed beggars. It seems but yesterday all this was the order of the day. Men wrote letters to the dear soldiers and enclosed election tickets. Pretty girls sold kisses for five cents and embraces for a higher sum, all for the poor soldier. Men and women cried aloud, " give, or be damned !"—" Con tribute, or be spotted !" "Endorse, or be mobbed 1" And the poor people gave. Now the soldiers, foot sore and weary. come home. The men who have follow. od the echoes of cannon down to the gates of hell. The men who have bathed their _feet in the blood of their comrades, as they followed the glittering flashing sabre up to shake hands with death. The men who were food for powder and ball, for sabre and bayonets, for horses' hoofs and the tires of artillery wagons. The men who were prayed for by hypocrites, an 1 preyed upon by army contractors, utiors t and guerrillas of Heaven, known as army chaplains, are now coming home. They come foot sore and weary. They bring •dirty looking bundles strapped to their backs. Their clothes are travel stained, red their eyes wander hither, and thither In search of their once earnesefriends! They sit on the store steps, and in alley ways, eating crackers, cheese, raw pork, and hard bread. roey have toyed with death as a boy cracks a whip. They have dared the devil, the works of hell, rebel /km, and abolitionism, that negroes and office holders might grew sleek and pros perous. They Irive been to war—they have returned, and the ones who were once so loud in the praise of the soldiers now pass by on the other side of the street ! Girls give no more kisses ! Hot coffee, sweet cake. and religious tracts are no more It is thus Abolitionism shows its gratitude. Dsmn such selfish hypoc risy !—La Crosse Democrat. , trig 1 4) batr&cr. THURSDAY.

W.11..i. %V t ILL %CIL The Democrats of Pennsylvania have occasion to coneritulate themselves on the s.lection of Wm. A Wallace. of Clear field, as Chairman of the Sate Central Committee for the ensuing year. Mr. Wallace is one of the most energetic and promising young D - 21nocr Its in the Com monwealth, a man nf unimpeachable in• tegrity and admitted talent. po seeming all the necessary qualifications of boldness, tact and good judgment to make him an r,cceptable and successful reader. :As a State Ssnator for three years, he won an enviable reputation, being acknowledged as one of the foremost men of that body. Several of his public speeches, on impor tant political issues, developed a clearness f intellect and thorough knowledge of po litical history thal were remarkable in one of his years. The young Democracy have in Mr. 'Wallace a gallant and reliable rep resentative. lie will bring to the duties of his position a zealous devotion to prin ciple, a firmness of character, and a spirit of activity that will open up a new era in the management of our State politics. A GOVERNOR WIT!! A BACKBOINE. The printing of the Legislative docu mend of New Jersey brings to light a car re'pondence which refl , cts great credit on the intrepidity and firmness of the Demo cratic Governor of that State. It appears that last autumn, secretary Stanton, hay ing fortified himself with the subservient opinion of his man Friday, MIR, of the -:Bureau of Military Justice," demanded of Governor Parker the surrender, for military trial, of a person under indict ment by a Grand Jury of New Jersey, for the crime of murder. Stanton supported his demand by the example of the gov ernors of other States (all Republican, of course.) who had yielded obedience to similar mandates. Governor Parker told him in respectful but firm official lan guage, that he should do nothing of the kind ; that the prisoner was in the legal custody of the sheriff, subject to the ac tion of the Ciurt, and that all concerned must await and abide that action. With suck governors as Mr. Parker in all the, States, a summary end would be put to military interference with the regular course of justice in the State tribunals. Tile New York Tribune thinks " while it pleasant to be sometimes in the majority, it is braver and better to be right." All honest men will subscribe t, the Tribune's sentiment in every word and letter. The deep settled conviction that they were " right " is what has sustained the suppor ters of Democratic principles through the four years of war and unexampled detrac tion. Feeling 'that their doctrines were those of justice and truth—that they were based on the only correct theory of our institutions—they took their stand firmly and manfuily, resolved that come what might, they would remain steadfast to their cause. The heroic attitude of the Democratic party, in the midst of all the discouraging events through which it has parsed, is one of the noblest tributes to its integrity. To snow our readers what • class of men now control the "regenerated " South, we copy the following from the Nashville .daily Dispatch : One of our worthy State Senators was attacked by the sidewalk of Cherry streak) last night, and driven to a door step, where he sat until a late hour, awaiting the poiremee t to recover its woeus OF ENCOUVAGRIIHNT. We trust our friends in no part of the State will permit' themselves to be bstrsy ed into a condition of inactivity. by the impression that the election this fall is'ef small consequence. So far from that being the.caae, we regard it as one of the most momentous campaigns that have ever been held in Pennsylvania. Not to speak of the great importance of the duties of the Auditor and Surveyor General's offices, and the need of having at their head men of weight of character, integrity and abil ity, the result of the contest this fall will have a decided influence over the 'Guber natorial canvass next year. If the Demo crats carry the day now it will be taken as an almost certain indication of success next fall, and the unreliable element, which always goes, with the strong side, will hagten to array itself in the ranks of thn Democracy. A United States Senator is also to be elected by the next Legisla ture, and every vote cast for Davis and Linton will materially enhance the chances hf having a Democratic majority in that body. Furthermore, a Democratic victory ! I n Pennsylihnia will strengthen President .Johnson in his reconstruction policy, and crush for all time to come the mad and reckless determination of the .Abolition leaders to place the ballot in the ban& of the negroes. We assure our brethren that the pros pect is very far from being as gloomy as ROMP appear to imagine. Everywhere in the State the Democrats are a unit in their party fidelity. Never was there more harmony in our ranks than now, more unyielding, courageous devotion to principle, more enthusiasm for our ticket, or more zeal to labor for its success. From every section we hear that the Democracy are organizing with renewed vigor, and an almost unlimited confidence in victory. The opposition, meanwhile, are distract ed, led by quarrelling and unpopular leaders, and lacking in all the elements of strength which made them so powerful during the war. They know that on the home vote of the State last year they were defeated, and remembering the large number of soldiers who either did not vote at all or voted against their convic tions, they have just cause for distrust of the result. The frantic appeals they make to the loyalty of their followers, and the disgraceful vituperation with which they assail our candidates, betray the fear and trembling with which they regard the prospects. From this time on let the watchword of all Democrats be " Organize and labor." See that every township has its Democrat ic club. Put sound Constitutional jour nals into every man's hands. Hold local meetings and challenge the Republicans to discuss the issues at stake. Place first class county tickets into the field. See that Democratic voters are properly wakened to the importance of the elec tion. Visit the doubtful, and endeavor to convince them of the truth of our prin ciples. Have vigilance committees ap pointed of the most faithful workers in each district. If every man does his pro per duty, we have no doubts of the result. Ftsuea AlfE , called the Democratic par ty of his time (1790-1808) Jacobins. James Watson Webb, after the United States Bank had bought him for fifty thousand d )tlars. nicknamed the party Locofoco.— Quit teriusster Iluitt styled them Copper h-ads in 1861 ; and the venal Cincinnati mniercia! displayed its ingenuity_in the n +me Butternut. The" opposition, under all their various aliases, have ever been prolific in nicknames. Knowing very well that by argument they could never over throw the principles of D.!mocracy, they have discarded that weapon of attack al most entirely, and resorted mainly to bil lingsgate. 'Shameful and odious as have been their labors in this line during the last four years, they are merely a sample of the vile means to which they have re sorted from the days of Jefferson and Jackson down to the close of the Buchan an' Administration. Their chief source of success lies in misrepresentation and ca lumny, and well they know it. No matter how absurd a falsehood may be originated, or how often it is refuted, they persevere in retailing It with all the copiousness of illustration and extravagance of rhetoric of which they are capable. Such things may accomplish their ol.jeel for a while.but in the end they will return to plague their inventors. Tue cholera, which made its appear. ance in Bengal in 1861, is now, after no more than four yeitra, at work on the shores of the western Mediterranean, if, indeed, it has not already passed the British channel and lods - ed itself in Lon don. In Italy it has raged with a vio lence which rivals the story of its first via• itation's. At Ancona, out of one thousand six hundred and eleven cases reported down to the 11th of August, seven hun dred and eighty-one had died, making nearly fifty per cent. Of its fury in South ern Italy, the official accounts designedly give us no adequ ate picture ; but a single dispatch from San Severn, published in tells a startling tale enough : " From noon on the 9th to noon on the 10th, cases eight, deaths seven !" Rome, Barcelona in Spain, and Marseilles in France, are reported to have been attack ed ; but though single cases may have oc curred in all these places, the epidemic had, at latest accounts, not yet assumed alarming dimensions in any of them. TLIE insignificant gang of extremists and mischief•makers, who attempted recently to disorganize the Democratic party of Ohio, are receiving cold comfort on every aide. We have not seen &solitary journal from any quarter that endorses their move ment. Their candidate for Lieut.• Go vernor has withdrawn from the ticket, and in his letter of declinatiOn tells the men who nominated him that he "could not excuse " himself were he " to permit the use of his name, in any way, to distract the Democratic party, and thereby con tribute to a continuance of the destructive and bloody rule of abolitionism." IT appears by a tabular statement in the New. York World, that the first three years of the war threw back the commerce of the United States just about 'as much as it had been advanced by the preceding ten years of peace. The last 'year of the war, if its results could be fairly and fully stated,- would show a much greater pra portionate amount of commercial loss to the country. A F.► 81.8 FOIL TBS. TINES. 12,40p'e fables are of great antiquity, but —sod therein consists the tesi of true ge niva—they contain something applicable to every age of the world add condition of Man. Here, for instance, 'is one that seems to have been written .expressly to meet the ease of the present futile attempt to metamorphose the negro into a white man's equal : • " A certain man having bought a Black amoor, was so simple as to think that the color of his skin was only dirt and filth. which he had contracted for want of due care under his former master. This fault he imagined might easily be removed.— So he ordered the poor black to be put into a tub, endwise at considerable charge in providing ashes, soil) and sorubbing brushes for the operation. To work they went, rubbing and scouring the skin all over, but to no purpose, for when they had repeated their washings several times. and were grown quite weary. all they gof by it was that the wretched Blackamoor caught cold and died." A MELTING of the leading politicians and business men of Richmond was held last Week, to express in a public manner the intentions and desires of the Southern people with respect to the new condition of affairs in that section. . A series of res olutions was adopted, of which the one below contains the pith of the whole From. what we can judo(' by numerous letters and copious extracts in our ex changes, we believe it to express, candidly and reliably, the common sentiment in the South : _ Resolved, That the general temper and disposition of the Southern people, in-, eluding our own, are to accept and acqui t esce in the results of the late sanguinary struggle and to resume the duties of citi• z'nship in the Union. That the men of chnracter and ability who have hitherto influenced public sentiment, neither ad vise or intend anything different from the discharge of their duties as citizens of the United States, and are setting an exam ple of full and ready submission to the authority of its Government, and counsel a full recognition of the facts of the actual situation, including the accepted and ir reversible abolition of slavery. Gam. HarintaNer and Col. Campbell, the Republican nomineei, are said to be brave men. S.) are Colonels Davis and Linton. They left their ordinary pursuits to fight the battles of the Union. , So did Colonels Davis and Linton. They are declared to be warm friends of their country.' So are Colonels Davis anal Linton. Here the parallel ends. The two former are per sons of very ordinary talent, neither of whom were men of mark before the war. Colonels Davis and Linton possess ac• knovrledged ability, as well in civil as in military dutiO3. They both occupied prominent stations in life previous to the war. Gen. llartranft sold his Democracy for promotion ; Col. Davis remained faith ful to his principles and was kept under the ban of the War Departnient in conse quence. On the score of fitness for the Auditor Generalship, there can be no comparison whatever between the men. Tea mis-called Republican I:Arty appro priates to itself the title of " Union." If by this is meant that it is the peculiar support of the Federal Union, the name is a misnomer, ror it is' notorious that, in connection with its allies, the secession ists. it: did more towards dei!troying the Union than any other class of men. It proclaimed the Union valueless up to 1850, declared that it vr , s not worth pre serving, would adopt, no measure to pre vent civil war, and pow numbers in its ranks all the original dimunionists of the North. If by Union" is meant a con glomeration of all the odds and ends of every dangerous faction that has e'er had an existence in America, ther. the name is right, and we admit its appropriate ness. It is indeed a " Union "—of every thing that is leprous, unsavory and dis creditable in our political history: Tux old adage " a brave man is always a modest man "wasnever better proven than in the case of our candidate for Auditor General Col. Davis. In the last Doylestown Democrat, of which he is editor, we find the following allision to the honor con ferred upon him by bis fellow Democrats: It will be seen that the Convention nom inated the editor of the Democrat for the office of Auditor General. It was a place we did not seek ; we were not a candidate, and when we fdund there was a probabil ity of our being made the candidate, we were about as much astonished a• the man who woke up and found himself famous Of course we can say nothing in favor el ourself further than we are Boats and HONEST', and believe ourself qualified. We are greatly indebted to the partiality of those who placed us in nomination : and particularly to the gentlemen of the press who gave us a support as generous as it was unexpected. Dr lowa the RepubliCan State Conven tion pronounced squarely in favor of negro suffrage by resolving in favor of striking the word " white" from the State Consti tution. At this the returned, soldiers of the party bolted, and the consequence was the holding of a soldiers' convention which nominated an anti-negro suffrage ticket, as follows: For Governor, Colonel Thomas H. Benton ; Lieutenant Govern or, Colonel S. G. Van Anda ; Supreme Court Judge, Colonel H. H.: Trimble ; Superintendent of Public' Instruction, Captain J. W. Sennett. The Democratic State Convention has adopted this ticket, and the Democracy and "boys in blue" are making common cause against negro suffrage. PRESIDENT Johnson,it is said,has tendered an invitation to John Bright to visit this country as a guest of the nation, and has sent one of our finest frigates, the Colora do, to England to bring him to our shores. If Mr. Johnson can find no better use for our war vessels than this, he had better put them up at auction and sell them for the benefit of the treasury. The people have heavy enough burdens already, with out having them increased for ti4s sake of feteing English Abolitionists who will take the first opportunity to assail us when they return, to their homes. A little plain talking to Mr. Andrew .Johnson is badly needed. Tux Cleveland Leader is out with a plan eminently characteristic of the party of "great moral ideas." It proposes an amendment to the Constitution prohibit ing any discussion of our National finan cial affairs, and punishing with severity any unfortunate creature who suggests re pudiation of the public debt. There's "freedom" for you, with a vengeance.— If our Federal financial management will not bear discussion, it is our opinion that something muss be very rotten about it. ETPOCIUST." Saps th. French moralist "is the homage which Vice pays Virtue." Witness the Woodward., Hugheses and W. B Reed, of Pennsylvania, heading t h e i r State ticket with a Colonel in the late war.—N. I'. Tribune. And Horace Greeley, who was a disun ionist before the war, and is charged by gr. Dana to have remained one all thin' the struggle, pretending to be a thorough Union man, writing hollow denunciations of secession, and beslabbering with praise the noble officers and men whose fidelity and courage crowned our efforts to sus tain the Government with victory. Tax Democratic conventions of Berko, Schuylkill and Northampton counties have declared in favor of Hon. Heisler Clymer as the nominee for Governor in 1866. The Lehigh county convention presented the name of Hon. John D Stiles, member of Congress from that dis trict. Mr. Clymer and Mr. Stiles are both able men and consistent Democrats. Other candidates will undoubtedly receive the support of their respective districts. and the contest may become so spirited as to remit in the choice of a new man, as in 1863. . Taz Democrats of the North-Eastern portion of the State have originated a new ides in political manoeuvres. They have been holding what they call a "three days meeting," at the West end of Nob Hour - tain, near Orangeville, Columbict county. A regular camp was provided, tents and cabins erected, and speeches made every day. Thousands atteuded daily, drawn there by the novelty of the thing, and it is believed that many were " converted " to the glorious old faith. The plan is cer tainly not a bad one, and we hope to see it widely followed. Burs vs. BLACK —The Democrats of Beaver county have made up a ticket en titely of returned soldiers. They have nominated a Lieut.-col. for the Legisla ture, a Lieutenant for Treasurer, a Car-' tain for Diitrict Attorney, a Sergeant for Commissioner, a private fer Surveyor, another private for Poor Director, a*Cor poral for Auditor, and a private for Cor oner. Bully for little Beaver. If that ticket doesn't win the day it will be be cause the Abolitionists down there have negro on the brain too much to care about the claims of the " boys in blue." razsintisr Johnson sent a dispatch to the Mississippi State Convention while in session, congratulating it. on the progress made toward reconstruction, and promia ing to restore the , writ of habeas corpus and to remove the troops when the State has entirely returned to her allegiance to the Union.
