The subjoined extract from a recent pri vate letter from Howell Cobb, of Georgia, is made public : "I entered the contest with a desire for the success of our ticket Which I never felt be fore. Wearied with the bitter struggles of the past years, my heart panted for peace, quiet and repose. In the election of Gover nor Seymour, and the success of the Demo cratic party, I felt, in common with all good people, there was not only a prospect but a certainty of peaccatt enduring peace; that it would lift up our own desolated section and give it new days of prosperity, restoring, too, the past relations of brotherhood between the two sections, and making us once more a happy and united people—united not merely in name, but in heart, spirit and truth. I was induced to break a long self-imposed si lence, and address the people of Georgia, to induce a like feeling on their part. Well, imagine if you can, the surprise with which I have read the comments of the Radical pa pers on that speech, perverting its meaning, distorting and construing my words of.peace and hope into words of blood and revolution. I am made the advocate of strife and war, When from every pore of my heart there =Taw gushing the most earnest and sincere desire for peace—lasting, eternal peace. Do me the favor to read a revised and correct copy of that speech, which I send you, so that our friends, at least at the North, may truthfully judge me." PAISICIeB CONCLUSION.—The night before the last election in Connecticut, one of Gov. English's supporters was in Stamford, smo king, and cogitating upon the coming fight. Although hoping for the best, his confidence was not overweening; but a circumstance occurred which raised his spirits fifty per cent. An Emeralder came tip to him, and divining the doubt that worried his mind, said: "Ari, Mather Doolan, don't be on alsy ; we're shun to bate 'em asuiyhow." "Don't be too. sure, Tom," replied Doolan; " if we beat them it will be by the akin of our teeth and hard work." "We must bate 'em, Mr. Dciolan; we can't help "Bow is that, Tom?" asked Doolan "Don't yer see the Lord is on our aide, man alive ?" ex plained Tom. " Bow do you make that out?" said Doolan. "An' allure an' I'll tell ye; didn't forty-seven voters die in Sttutmford fast year, and only six of thim were Dimocrats? ' Shure the Lord's hand was in that 'as plain as that Wart Ort yer nose."

The reader will please notice that a large part of this stupendous sum is in gold. About 5547,000p00 of it was received in du- ties on imported goods; and if we reckon the premium at 40, it will amount to $218,800M so that the total revenues of the Government, since the close of the war, reach the amazing sum of more than $1,758,000,000 in lawful money, or nearly three-fourths of the public debt Dinny, agiii I The fact that such a deluge of revenue has been poured into the Treasury since the close of the war, naturally leads to the inquiry, what has been done with it. Before pursuing this inquiry, let us pause a moment to ask what use the common-sense of the taxpayeis would naturally expect and demand should be made of se prodigious a revenue. The expectation would, of course, be that it would have gone to diminish the public debt. Unsophisticated common sense can reconcile itself to no other disposal of a revenue so enormous. But when we turn to the refiortal and statements of the Secretary of the TM- spry—the highest authority on such subjects —we find that the public debt has been re duced only some 440,000,000. In his an nual report for 1866, that officer stated that the public debt reached its highest point on the 81st of August, 1865, when its amount, I less the cash in the Tree-illy, was $2,757,803- I 686. On the Ist of September, IE6B, as we I learn from the official statement of the same' authority, the amount of the public debt, less the cash in the Treasury, was $2,535,614,818. The total diminution Of the debt is, therefore, only $222,1: %VS, out of an income amount ing to $1,540,658,583, although a large part of this income was in gold, and riot a dollar of gold has been paid to diminish the public debt. It appears, therefore, that between thirteen and fourteenlundred million dollars have been spent since the close of the war, by the party whose extravagance and mis management have so damaged the public credit that the premium on gold haa been in creased 20 per cent. since 1865. In the face of so enormous and so indispu table a revenue, it is no wonder that the Re publican party feels pressed by the persistent demand of the country to know what has become of so much money. Mr. Edward At kinson, with the assistance of his backers, has invented a fiction, never thought of till now, which makes the maximum debt six ar seven hundred millions greater than the Sec retary of the Treasury reported it to be when at the highest point, and accounts for the dis appearance of so much revenue by saying that more than eight hundred millions of it have gone to extinguish the principal of the debt. A fiction which is in such flagrant con flict with the official statements of the Secre tary of the Treasury, is ridiculous. If it be true, as Mr. Atkinson pretends, that one fourth of the public debt has been extin guished since the close of the war, why has the public credit been steadily depreciating, as is attested by the constant rise in the pre mium on gold? This last question involves an argument-to which there can be so valid answer. If, as Mr. Atkinson pretends, the expenses of the Government have been less since the war than in Mr. Buchanan's time, and if more than eight hundred millions of the public debt have been paid, the necessary consequence would have been a. great _im provement in the credit of the Government If any citizen gets confused by sophistical, dishonest figures, here is a test by which he can easily satisfy himself of their falsity. Under good management, the credit of the Government should have steadily improved from the close of the war forward. The pre mium on gold, instead of constantly rising, should have constantly fallen. If eight hun dred millions of the public debt had really been paid, and the Government had really cost less since the war than it did under Pre sident Buchanan, the premium on gold, in stead of having gone up twenty per cent., would have gone down at least twenty per cent., and the credit of the Government would be by this time so far re-established that we should be on the eve of resuming specie payments. Among the half-dozen conclusive refuta tions of Mr. Atkinson.'S foolish and impudent pretences, this is, perhaps, the shortest. They are utterly inconsistent with the sinking cre dit of the Government, is consequence of which the premium on gold has nearly dou bled since the close of the war. The credit of the Government is regulated by the same principles as that of a merchant. If a man's notes are selling at a discount, it is a sure ev idence that those woo understand his affairs think them badly mismanaged. The won derful things which Mr. Atkinson pretends the Republican party has done, are utterly . inconsistent with the doubling of the pre mium on gold since 1865. This great sinking of the public credit being an incontestible fact, the pretences we have referred to are, of course, a baseless fiction, and an insult to public intelligence. Dinny, agra!

Some credulous 'reader of the speeches made 'from the political rostrum may ask what has become of the vast resources of re venue from which "ove-third of the public debt has been paid since August, 1835." There has been no such payment, and the pretense is a political fraud.

We print the letter entire: "Amnia, Taxes, August 9,1888. "I am at this time traveling fora promi nent wholesale establishment in Philadelphia. I was born and have spent most of my life in Cincinnati, and it - is only sinew the war that I have called Philadelphia my 'home. My parents are still residing m your city. "Since my arrival in Texas"hare traversed moat of the State, trarelin,g a rat deal alone, , on horseback, and have passed in this way through many of those counties which are said to be most ri/s with "lawlessness and crime." On no octane's have I attempted to mead the fact that am a Northern man, yet I . have met with neighing bus kindness everywhere. " Shortly after arriving in this State, while riding along a dismal, lonely road, through a portion of the country which bears quite a" reputation abroad for murders and robberies, imagine my surprise at meeting a solitary harsemim, wearing the unifcirm of a United States !soldier. He wadding leisurely along. without a weapon of any kind. 'My good fellow,' I said, are you not &Dela I" 'Afraid .of what? he asked, evidently surprised at my question. ' Why to pus through a plate like this with those blue clothes on, alone and unarmed.' " ' Why, partner,' brawled the down-easter, for he was one, I've knocked 'round exten sively in these parts, and no one has meddled with me - yet. You see I am apt a carpet bagger.' " The people where I have been are hard at work, and have little or nothing to say in mind to polities. Those whom I have heard express their opinion, seem to apprehend yet more oppressive measures front Congress. No wages are Sufficient to induce freedmen to work steady. They talk politica during the day, and their nights are consumed in stealing and noisy drunkenness. "The horrible murders of Union men, of which we hear so much, seer tio be gotten up by the men sent to Austin for the purpose of framing the constitution, but who have done nothing but send to Washington lists of out rages never committed. "The following I submit es a fair sample of the freedman as be is. "About noon the other day! reined up my horse near a filthy looking hovel", in front of which a greasy, strapping son of Henn lay at full length on a bench. ' Hallo, uncle I.' The same individual rolled lazily over, and be stowing upon me a look of Contempt, said, 'Look a here; did you speak to me?' • 'Yes, I replied ; have yen any corn 1 0 " irse got corn, too: was the insolent "'What will you ask for enough to feed my horse? "The bright and shining light of the Loyal League gave me another withering look, and at length said, 'A dollar and a half, provided you teed him yourself. I don't feed no d--d white man's horse, I don't' "This kind of an offer I declined, and ri ding on a mile farther, stopped at the resi dence of an ex-rebel, with whom I remained that afternoon and night, to find my bill in the morning, 'not a cent, sir; you are always welcome ; and if I can be of any assistance, consider me your servant' "This letter I have written from a sense of diity. I was an abolitionist always. I left Cincinnati a member of one of the first regi ments organized there, and was in most of the battles in Virginia. At the close of the war I was a Major of one of the finest regi ments the service could boast "Since the war, and until very recently, I have been an uncompromising Radical. ' "I would be glad, Mr. Editor, if other pa pers would copy, even,though this letter pos sesses no merit apart from a true statement of facts as I have seen them. " I am, sir, yoursrespecthilly, " Rows= T. Wilson, Cincinnati. "P. 5.—1 give Cincinnati as my address. I expect to visit my father soon, and any communications to me will be retained by him until my aseivaL R. T. W." The reader will bear in mind that the tes timony in this article is from the Radical aide; it is the testimony of unwilling wit nesses; the kind distinguished by lawyers as the best and most undoubted—a party in court testifying against himself. In conclu sion, we cite the following from the Wash ington correspondence of the World, under date of August 28 : " General Meade, who is accompanied by two members of his staff, called upon the President to-day, and spent several hours at the War Department and Army Headquar ters. He speaks in the most cheerful man ner of the condition of the South and the general good conduct of the people. He rt• marked to a friend to-day: 'I am sure they mean to do right.'
