What Did It t
The war began in thiseountry six years and
a half ago. Ten States in the 'Union declared
they would go out. f it—that they had the
right to go, and the power to go, and they
would go. Abraham Lincoln, 'then Presi
dent, said they couldn't go. He said the
Union was perpetual and indissoluble, and
they couldn't go. Congress said they couldn't
go. Seward said they couldn't go. Chase
said they couldn't go. Fessenden said they
couldn't go. Morrill said they couldn't go.
So did Blaine and Pike and all the Radicals.
All the Governors of the States and all the
Lexialatures said they couldn't go out. All
the Radicals said the same. The small fry
politicians and hangers on' of the party
echoed' the cry
-7 hey can't goout ! TIMY 311'5N'T OtT
THEY SHAN'T GO OUT!
The ministers prayed that the States might
be kept all in the Union. They implored the
Lord to aid in compassing that end. The:) ,
asked him to counsel, direct and aid every
:body who was trying to keep the States from
going one of the Union.
The Radical party otaimed to be the party
that was going to keep the 'States in thr Union.
Mr. Lincoln said the party that elected hull
was strong enough to do if. No one was al
lowed to doubt that the party was going to
keep the States in the Union. If any one said
he had doubts about it, the cry was, "Mob
him! - Tar and feather him! KNOCK msi
IX)NVN ! . KILL - •
Men were mobbed, and beaten, and killed,
and their murderers acquitted, because they
doubted if the party meant to keep the Union
together. Jails, and prisons, and forts were
Hill of men who doubted it. Men who
couldn't persuade themselves that the Radi
cals meant to do it, were habitually slighted,
ill-treated, insulted. They were called cop
perheads, knaves, fools, rillians, traitors.
They were annoyed,-insulted and injured in
every possible way.
It a newspaper doubted that they would•
keep the States in the Union, it was speedily
mobbed, its presses broken, its type thrown
out of doors, its flirniture burned - by ruffians,
superintended by rery respectable Radicals in
the back grotind. Or else they indicted the edi
tor by a jury-of dirt caters, and then refused
him a trial.
To keep the States in the Union immense
armies were raised. • There was enlisting—
there was volunteeringthere was conscrip•
tion—there was drafting. Nothing was heard
but the din of arms. Steamers and trains
carried men to the front, and brought back
corpses, for four years.
To keep the gates, hr the Union, as they
said, money was raised by the thousand mil
lions. Bonds were sold. Greenbacks were
- made. Honest men were made poor. Knaves
got rich.
For four years this fair and heretofore hap
pv land was made a hell on eartlk—to keep the
States all in the Union!
At last the rebels yielded, and surrendered
One-day under an apple tree at Appomattox
Court house—aeknotekdged that they couldn't
get out.
They acknowledged that secession was
beaten out of them—that rebellion was no
more—that the Confederacy. had gone up.—
nay were willing to stay in tka onion!
Wasn't the question settled then? Settled
that the Union was kept together?
Oh, no! The Radicals in Congress said the
war bad been glorious—had been
,brilliant in
achievement—had been wondlrful in result—
but; after all, the States trAD-oerr our! The
rebels had accomplished their object ! The
Union was not Perpetual ! It could be dis
solvedl
The• people of the South sent its Senators
and Representatives—Union men who never
believed in secession — soldiers who had been
in the Federal army. Congress didri't know
them : Congress said their States had got out
and must star out ! . ,
What a spectacle t
A half million of men - in their graves who
died to keep the States in! Hundreds of
thousands maimed for life, in efforts to kelp
the States in ! The country filled with mourn
ers, ravaged by war, impoverished by tales,
loaded with debt !
And the Union not saved ! •
More than that.. The-men whip persecuted
those who could not believe that they 'in
tended to keep the States in the Union, are
now equally vindictive toward those whip in
sist that the States are still legally in it. Did
they dare, there, would be again mobbing . of
men—there would be tarring and feathering
—there would be shooting. - Men would be
again imprisoned. Printing offices would be
again sacked, and malicious prosecutions
commenced against editors. They do what
they dare to, toward compelling men to be
as false to professions' as they have been.
They hold the South 'by military rule. They
put ballots in the hands of blacks, who bur
lesque the franchise by their idiotic appear
ance. They override the Constitution. They
threaten the President. The man that them-'
selves elected, they call a traitor, and threat
en to remove him
And this party has the effrontery to ask the
people to vote it their confidence; after hav
ing kept the country four years in war, awful,
shocking, bloody war—it pushes rebellion
from its pedestals of secession, and placing
itself thereon, proclaims secession to have
triumphed! And this to lengthen out a little
power it has abused. This, that it may hope
to rule a little longer an insulted and betray
ed people.
Reader, we promised to tell you what the
people voted on, and will. It was THE RE-.
CORD OF THE RADICAL PARTY. The

from the North. One 9f those put down as
an escaped convicts said to have his ears
cropped and the other is branded as a desert
er from the Federal army. One of the three
negro preachers is alleged' to be the identical
individual who fooled the superlatively loyal
in New York, in 1864, by represepting huns
self as Jeff. ,Davis' coachman, when he
was the occupant, of a low howl in West
Broadway. Theseve the great men of the
party of "moral ideas:"
SOME of our readers who are not so young
as they have been, may remember the fa
mons Yankee kiss, and the kiss Of the last
King of England before he came, to his
estate. While at New York the Prince call
ed at a barber's shop to be shaved. When
the opemtion was completed, he stepped up
to the barber's wife; who chanced to be pres
ent, and giving her a kiss, remarked ; "There,
now you can say you have been kissed by a
member.of the royal family." The barber,
greatly incensed by what he,chose to receive
as an insult, seized the Prince, and helping
him out of the shop with his feet, exclaimed :
"There, now, you can say rou have received
a royal kick from an American freeman."
- A urru. fellow, some four or five years
old, and who had never seen a negro, was
perplexed one day, when one came by where
he and his father were.. The youngster eyed
the stranger suspiciously till he bad passed,
and then asked his father: "Pa, who painted
that man all black-so?" "God did, my son,"
replied the father. "Well," said the little
one, still looking after the negro , " I shouldn't
'a thought he'd 'a held still." • • •
The Editor or the World.
From the ;:ew York Evening Gazette.]
Though very unlike Henry Mackenzie's
hero, Manton Marble is generally} ^ known in
New York, and the country at latge, as the
"Man of the World." He is emphatically
such, and no one who knows him can say
that the World is not worthy of him. His
rise in journalism has been rapid. lie was
hardly known ten years ago, and now his
reputation is Only second to that of Greeley,
Bennett and Raymond as the editor-in-chief
and - director of one of the four great quartos
of, the metropolis. lie is a native of 11Issa
chusetts, we believe, and began his career,
after taking his degree at college, in Boston.
The story is that in his very early manhood
ho went, entirely unknown, into a newspaper
office, (the Traveller, we think,) in that city,
and asked for a situation.
"What can ycu dos" inquired the manag
ing editor.
"Anything at all," said the self-confident
3larole. "Try me on a lender, a paragraph,
a criticism or a review ; it is all the same to
me."
"Have you ever had anv journalistic expe
Hence?"
"No; but I have written a good deal, and
I know I can suit you.if you'll only give nie
a chance."
"Well, I like your self-reliance. It argues
well, and I judge from your manner and con
versation that you are educated and have
seen something of the world. (He ?ad not
seen so much of it then as be has since.) I
am favorably impressed with you."
"Give me a trial ; thaf is all I ask ; I don't
wish to sound my own praises. I want to
work, I have long had a fancy for journal
ism : and I intend to write for some news
paper; if not for this for some other."
"That's the right spirit, young man. Now.
I remember Forest plays Lear to-night, and I
have no one to send to the theatre. Will you
undertake the job ?"
"Certainly. Can I write at length ?"
"Yes, you shall have two columns, and I'll
see what you can do."
The next morning the Journal contained
two columns of graceful, learned. and often
brilliant criticism of the actor, with a careful
examination of the text, a rererwooo to scotch
history, and a fine analysis of the character,
which delighted the managing editor, charm
ed his readers and secured Marble a position
at. once at what was then regarded in the
City of Notions as a liberal salary.
Mr. Marble remained on the Boston press
for several years, but, desiring a larger field
for hig journalistic capacity, came to New
York soon after the Work/ was started as a
one cent religiobs paper. He went into the
office first, we think. as a general writer, but
soon became the managing editor, and after
wards the editor-in-chief. Through all the
changes of the paper he not only retained
his place, but rose higher and higher, and se
cured a larger and larger interest in the es
tablishment. To what extent he is a partner
in the World no one knows but he is sup
posed'to own at least a quarter or a third of
it, for lie almost entirely - controls and directs
its political and journalistic course. Ile has
never had connection with any other news
paper in the city, but has given all his energy,
time and talents to the building up of the
World, which is now the ablest as well as
the ; Most prominent Democratic organ in the'
country..
The journal. though it is quite economical
ly,inanaged, has always contrived to have
some of the best writers on its staff of editors
and correspondents to be found in the me
tropolis. And this selection of able men for
the different departments has been made by
Mr. Marble, who seems to have, like Charles
A. Dana, the rare faculty . of getting the right
men in the right place.
Two or three years ago Mr. Marble married
a young lady of wealth and accomplishment
in this State, and has since devoted himself
more to domesticity thari journalism. He still
supervises and directs the political and edito
rial part of the paper, leaving to subordinates
the general management.
Mr. Marble is a gentleman of rare culture,
a fine belles lettres and classical scholar, and
deeply versed in the mysteries both of trans
cendental and positive philosophy. He has
studied the advanced thinkers profoundly
and thoroughly, and is intimately acquainted
with Kant and Hegal, Comte and Cousin,
Buckle ana Herbert Spencer. He writes very
forcibly and gracefully •, and though many
articles not his are attributed to his pen, it is
safe to say that some of the very best which
appear on the excellfntly-written fourth page
of the World arc exclusively his property.—
His political opponents have often declared
him insincere ; insisting that any man of his
mental training and culture must be a-Re
publican of necessity. It is fair to suppose,
however, that Mr. Marble knows his own
convictions better than others; nor is it im
possible for a student of liberal philosophy to
be a Democrat.
Personally, Mr. Marble is probably about
forty years of age, though the premature ap
pearance of gray in his hair makes him, per
haps, looks a trifle older. He is below the
medium stature, rather heavy set, easy and
graceful in his movements, and of preposses
sing address. He is quite handsome, and has
decidedly a foreign look, with a cast of Ori
ental comeliness in his face, such as is often
seen in the inheritors of Hebrew blood
after it has coursed for two or three genera-.
•tions through what is ethnologically styled
"Christian" veins. He is, however, of Puritan
stock, we believe ; but must be, as they would
say in the South, rather of Norman than Sax
on lineage. .
If he were attired in purple doublet,
with a carbine swung to his back, a peaked
hat, Streaming with ribbons, put upon his
bead, and thrust upon the stage of the Acad
emy to make love to Zerlina in Italian song,
I no one would suspect he was not the proper
person for a sentimental bandit. .
Mr. Marble is much the handsomest of the
prominent editors of New York ; lives in
ease, even luxury; enjoys his library and his
dinner; lounges and talks gracefully at the
Manhattan Club . ; is a power in his party and
a pleasant gentleman in society, and that
very rare thing—a highly successful and ma
terially prosperous journalist—while still
young and in the possession of perfect health.
Habits of President Johnson.
The following letter from 13. 13. French
Esq., is published in the Washington Intelli
gencer of Friday, to which it was addressed
WASIIINGTOI.7, Nov. 23, 1867.
I have just read, with exceeding regret, a
statement that Hon. Mr. Price, in some re
marks on temperance recently made by him,
spoke of President Johnson as a drunkard.
I feel it to be a duty that I owe not only to
the President, but to the community, to say,
that probably- no person has had a better op
portunity, from April, 1865, to this time, to
Judge of the habits of the President than I
have. As Commissioner of Public Buildings,
duty required that I should visit the Presi
dent's House almost daily, and rto week
passed when I did not have personal inter
views with President Johnson. I have seen
him at all hours of the day—in his office, in
his sleeping-room, in his reception room
- and never have I seen him in the least under
the influence_of-strong drink, nor did I ever
see him taste any but once, and then, when
in company with many gentlemen, at their
urgent solicitation, he- poured into' a glass
perhaps half a table-spoonful, and drank in
company with the rest.
I was with him throughout his journey to
Boston, and I saw him in places where in
toxicating liquor was abundant ; but he Col
lowed - strictly the injunction "Touch not,
taste not, handle not," so far as my observa
tion extended.
. I sincerely believe Andrew Johnson to be
as temperate a man in all bis habits as any
man in the United States.
Hon. Hr. Price is not the only man who
has been misled by false statements; as I
well know front the .questions that have
often been put to me when visiting New
England friends. — Respectfully yours,
B. B. PRENCIT.

Ws= DEESSED.—A Quaker gentleman

The Democratic Emblem-- ,6 Y0 Root•
A correspondent . of the Ohio Statesman In
quires why the rooster is used by the Denaoc
=Vas an emblem of victory. That paper
reifies : .
- "Because the game rooster is the gamest
bird, when encroached upon by his fellows, •
that ever existed, and the Democracy is the
gamest party that ever voted at an election
or resented oppression. Both the party and
its. emblem, when they go into the fight,
make it a matter of lite and death. Both
may be whipped, but not conquered; for giv-
ing up, when once in the fight, is a word un;
knoWn to the practice of the rooster and is
not found in the Democratic vocabulary."
The following historical incident induced'
the adoption of the emblem :• -
During the war of 1812 the British fleet on
Lake Champlain was attacked by the AMC . ii•
can fleet under Commodore 31cDonougb.
The fleet .of McDonough, much inferior to -
that of the English, suffered terribly in the
first part of the battle. At the moment when
it was raging fiercest—the heaviest fire ofthe
enemy was directed against the flagship of
McDonough—his men driven from their guns
by the fierce cannoniule,and dismay sat upon
every countenance, and the storm of iron
hail, Which seemed to threaten destruction
not only to the ship but ,to every living soul
therein, was at its height, a cannon ball
struck a chicken coop and knocked it to -
pieces, killing all it contained buta moment
before, save only a game rooster, whose bat
tered comb bore the marks of ninny a deadly
tight. Flying upon the bulwarks of McDon
ough's flagship, the noble bird, undaunted by
the noise and confusion and carnage around
him, with clarion voice rang out his notes of
defiance and victory. •
Sailors are ever superstitious, and when,
in the pause of the thunder of the enemy's
cannon, they heard the shrill"cock-a-doodle
doo" of the undaunted bird, they gathered
new courage, and repairing again to their
guns, returned anew the fire of the enemy,
cheered by the loud crow of the brave em
blem of the Democracy. until the battle end
ed and 'McDonough, on Lake Champlain,
like. the Democracy in Pennsylvania and
Ohio was victorious over the. enemies of the
country.
NO. 30
Every navid historian makes mention of
the fact, and history says that the bravery'
shown on that occasion by the rooster was
the cause of the victory,. by the renewed
courage it gave the sailors in McDonough's
fleet.
From that day'to this, in political contests,
the rooster has been the Democratic emblem
of victory, and when it is seen, in the act of
sending torth its • cock-a-doodle,doo," at the
head of a Democratic newspaper, it is right
to say the country, is safe, for the victory is
with the Democracy.
At.a late Meeting of the New York De
mocracy, Gov . . Seymour made the following
good "points :"
"The world once saw a mighty monarch,
one of the greatest of whom history tells,
who; alter a career of triumph, at length laid.
down the cares of state, went to a convent
and amused himself by making watches.
He had been one of those men 'who had at
tempted to force his own ideas upon other
MOO, somewhat like one of our modern big—
ots, who being troubled with dvspepsiajand
havinn- ' lost his appetite wants all other men
,to fast. [Laughter.] The monarch attempt
ed to make two watches alike, but finally,
giving up in despair, he said, 'How have I
wasted this life of mine? I, who cannot
make two pieces of machinery that will
run alike, have spent my life in trying to
make a piece of God's wonderful machinery
work and act alike.' 'Our Republican friends
believe in the power bt government to do
that which we believe is,best done by every
man's own honest conviction of right. But,
I assert in the language of _Milton, who was
not only a great poet but a great statesman,
'that you can have no great civilization in
any land where men are coerced' in every
action of their lives.' I once asked a gentle
man-if lie believed in this systeth of coercion
so completely that if a man would not drink
for ten years because- the law would not let
him, he would be a temperance man there
after? He said he did. I said; 'Suppose
you make a law so pertect.that he would not
be guilty of any misdemeanor' whatever,.
would you not consider that better still?'
He said he would. I said, :`Suppose you
make a law so perfect tliat_ j he shall rise, re
tire, and labor regularly, read the Bible
every day in his, becirooin, and go to church
twice every Sunday, engage in no immoral

West Virginia Mode of Voting.
Under the system that prevails in this
State, the Radicals can always manage
to keep the majority. The modes oper
andi Is this : The Board of Supervisors meet,
overhaul the list of registered voters, and
summon any citizen to come forward and
show cause why his naine should not be
stricken from the list. it is all the same '1
whether he appears or not ; his name must -
go off irthe Radical supervisors will it. In _
this way a• gentleman who was elected by
the COnserVatives of Jefferson county to the
House of Delegates last year was deprived of
his right of suffrage,. though he had been a
consistent Union man throughout the whole
period of the war. As a matter of course he
was also ousted from his seat in the Legisla
ture. This was effected by throwing out, for
alleged-informality or something else, the
vote of die two precincts wherein he had a
majority, and the scat was accorded to his
Radical opponent.
A reference to the' returns of the recent
election held in this county, purloined from
Virginia, will shiny the whole strength of
Radicalism, and the extreme to which pro
scription is carried. The full vote of the
county, without disfranchisement, would be
about 2,500. At the recent election there
were polled for the two opposing candidates
for the Senate 331 votes; the Radicals elected
their candidate by a majority of 11. Thus it
will appear that. seven-eighths of the old
voters' are disfranchised, while 171 Radicals
control a country having 2;000 men who
should he voters, but are not. And this is
but a sample of what we may expect from
the liunnicut party in Virginia after they
shall liav a Constitution in accordance with
their notions.—Lynchburgh. Virginian. .
The town of Jackson, Auglaize county,
Ohio, at. the recent election, polled four hun
dred and nine votes, all for the Democratic
ticket. This fact has called' forth considera
ble criticism as to the character and intelli
gence of the citizens of that town, and the
Auglaize Democrat gives this account of its
people : "There is not one voter in Jackson
who cannot read and write. There is not
person. in that township, male or female;
above the age of fourteen who cannot do the
same.. There is not another rural township
in Ohio, or anywhere else, with the same age
or settlement, that has more industry, wealth
and general intelligence. Besides , the best
of schools, the town has a fine Academic In
stitute, kept in successful operation - ten
months in the year, that accommodates two
hundred students. Among the church build
ings one stands there that .cost forty-five
thousand dollars. In that township are
model farmers, mechanics and thrifty and
accomplished merchants.,,
Why should such
people vote any other than the Democratic
ticket?"
DENIED AtiurrrexcE.—Elon: John Hick
man, of.Wes't Chester, Radical member of
Assembly eleet, is about on a par.with Thad.
Stevens in his adniinitton for the negro. Ori
that subject he is a little insane. A. few
weeks ago, Fred. Douglass, the negro orator,
was invited to West Chester to make a speech
to his sable brethren. To show that he prac
ticed what he preached, Mr. Hickman ex
tended an invitation to Douglass to be his •
_guest during his stay in the town, which in
vitation was accepted. The best chamber in
Hickman's elegant mansion was put in trim,
and the large parlors thrown open for the ac
commodation of the Boston negro. Mrs.
Hickman, however, had no stomach for all
this, and when M. Douglass arrived
and was foot in the elegant parlors,
she confronted him and peremptory
order that he should leave, pointing
him at the same time to the - front door. Anti,
leave he (lid, to find quarters. with some one
of his own color, This is,another evidence
that however, much some men may prnte
about "equality of the races," white women
cannot and will not become the advocates of
the detestable doctrine. Mrs. Hickman is a
Carlisle lady, and deserves crediifor her de
termination to resist the attempt of her hus
band to Make her home a negro rendezvous.
