Radical Ideas.

In by-gono ages, when barbarism,

priestcraft and ignoranco prevailed, although the aphorism that "Kings ruled by Divine right," was universally assented to by the people, the prcccpt is now treated by the intelligent and thinking masses not only as unworthy of belief, but as simply ridiculous.— All schemes propagated by designing and ambitious men for the selfish purpose of concentrating powor in tho hands of tho few that they may oppress the many—power to abridge liberty and inflict bondage, will inevitably fail when they come in conflict with knowledge and civilization.

Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. Human rights havo become roBolved into a scicnce, and are eliciting tho deep thought and intense study of tho people, who are guarding them with a jealous care, and wo betido the audacious madman who attompts to usurp ihem.

The theory that "cotton yune king," was promulgated with much arrogance by would-be Southern lords, and only exploded when tho lovers of liberty demonstrated by the bayonet that freedom and not slavery was tho normal condition of the human race.

The Democratic task-masters and owners of human chattels in tho South, and their sympathetic friends in the .North, were indefatigable in their attempts to inculcato tho heresy that "slavery was of Divine origin," but the admirers of a republican form of Government were unable to reconcile such doctrine with the teachings of Nature, Sacred Writ, or tho. Democratic creed of "equal and exact juBtice to all men," as expounded by Thomas Jefferson.—

Tho adoption of the Constitutional Amendment abolishing slavery forever in the United Stales settled this vexed question, and manifests that "Divinity has so shaped our ends" that freedom is national, and all the friends of liberty can rejoico that our glorious land is no longer polluted with tho tread of a slave, verifying tho declaration that all men are created free and equal.

Modern Bpurious Democracy, in imitation of ancient King-craft by Divine right, has superciliously announced that "none but Democrats can govern this country." Tho iron-clad and stupid brain of the party has become so deeply impregnated with this sentiment-, that it has ripened into belief, and no argument, however powerful, no state of facts however convincing to the contrary, will eradicate the delusion from tho democratic mind. In vain do you point to Mr. .Buchanan, tho great democratic mogul, under whose administration, State after State disregarded law, defied the power of the Government, and resolved themselves out ol the Union. Mr. Buchanan, tho chosen leader of tho democratic party, and representing t?hoir views, remained inactive, declaring that tho Constitution did not confer on the Executive tho power to coerce a Stato, when he had taken a solemn oath to seo that the laws were faithfully executed, thus if not conniving at, at to.oUij jjurmitting tho destruction of the Government. True, tho most intelligent and patriotic mcmbors of the party adandoned the organization, and united with President Lincoln in his efforts to prevent the schemes of traitors, whilo the mass of the democratic leaders embraced tho views of Mr. Buchanan, and sympathized with those who were seeking tho'life of the nation.

Where, wo candidly ask, was the eminent fitness of tho democratic party to "govern tho country" exhibited at this vital period of tho nation's history? Had tho poople permitted them to carry out their erroneous views of State sovereignty, we should havo wit'i nessed the mournful spectacle of a divided and distracted country, with all ita concomitant evils of rapino, bloodh:shed and anarchy.

By the vascillating and inactive policy of Mr. Buchanan, in regard to secession androbellion, and acquiescence in and approval of the same by the Democratic leaders, thoy have made a record for tho Democratic party so odious, so infamous and treasonable, that it will, in all time to come, prove a stench in the nostrils of all loyal and ^patriotic men. a -Tho people, in this country, are the source of all power, and they have evinced their determination to preserve the Government from tho rule of ?a bogus Democracy and a rebel element—considering them aliko danger-

Ous^to liberty, and calculated to retard the advance of civilization and tho interests of humanity.

The recent election aro significant. They indicate in unmistakeablo language that the services of the pseudo .-Democracy are not needed, and that their allies, the rebels, can take back scnts 'till thoy afford, ample security "for their good behavior iti Ui© future.

They intend to exact guarantees for future peace, and havo full confidence in the ability of loyal men to rule this Government, the declaration of Democratic superiority to the contrary notwithstanding.

WHEELING INTO LIINE.—Tho Boston Post, tho principal organ of the Massachusetts democracy, has taken grounds in favor of negro suffrage. Several democratic papers in this State have endorsed the courso of tho Chicago Times on tho negro suffrage qucstiion. The "steaiy^ power" across the way is still obdurate, but to "this complexion it must como at last."

Tho following dispatches indicate that tho Px*esident is specring around, in hopes of finding a new party, to which ho can act "Moses

Tho statements made to day a number of the leading representative men of both the Republican and Democratic parties, tend to confirm the few instruction^ that have leaked out from the recent consultations at tho White House, that the President is on the eve of a grand coup d'etat that will gratify his friends and bewilder his enemies. It is safe to conclude at the very least that thero is an earnest desire on both sides Jto

settle

upon some

feasible plan of securing harmonious action between Congress and the Executive.

The Tribune has the following: Mr. Chase's first interview with tho President was merely to give the latter some opinions in judicial matters. The second interview was merely a friendly one, and Judge Chase took occasion to advise Mr. Johnson to depart from his present policy and urge the Southern Legislatures to adopt tho Constitutional Amendment as a final settlement of tho present difficulties that in case they objected to the second and third clauses of tho amendment, to compromise by substituting universal amnesty and impartial suffrage. Not only has Judge Chase urged this courso on tho President, but so also havo several prominent men of his own party from both North and South, C. C. Clay among tho latter. Whether these arguments and the facts on which they are basod will change tho course of the Prosidcnt remains to be seen.

The Times has the following: Mr. Johnson has not indicated his purpose relative to tho amnesty suffrage plans as mentioned on Friday last, though the gentlemen who advocate the proposition represent that tho President has given iliem encouragement to expect that he will adopt their suggestions substantially, if not exactly, in the form thoy advise.

Several newspaper correspondents have endeavored to create doubts of the existence of such a combination of leading men for tho purpose of inducing tho President to accept the propositions and advise the Southern people as set forth in the New York dispatches. In orftar to put at root such doubts, I am enabled to say from personal knowledge that such combination docs exist. A number of these gentlemen co operating in it, have had interviews with Mr. Johnson, and they havo beon laboring in tho matter for about a month, visiting and corresponding with influential men of the North and South.

Tho- Herald's correspondent says Venezuela is in a thoroughly distracted and disorganized state. James Wilson, the American Minister, arrived there. There was no one to present his credentials to. President Falcon had never acted as President he kopt away from tho capital and the person representing him was also absent when Mr. Wilson arrived, but he managed to present his credentials on the 10th inst., to tho President, who had arrived at the capital.

Two Colored Legislators. At the late election held in Massachusetts, two colored men wore elected to scats in the Legislature of that Stato by tho Republicans. We believe this is the first time that such a thing has over occurred in the United States and shows what a remarkable change has come over public sentiment within tho last few years." One of them is a member for the city of Boston, and tho other for the adjoining city of Charleston. Tho Boston colorod Legislator is William Mitchell, a printer by trado, and a man who onlisted as a private in the famous Fifty-fifth Massachusetts regiment, which made that gallant but unsuccessful charge on Fort Wagner. White in tho servico ho was rapidly promoted for bravery, being one of tho very few colored men to whom tho position of Lieutonant was given.

Tho colored gentleman elected to tho Legislature from Charleston, is a Mr. Walker, a man of ability and charactor, of wealth and influence.— Ho is thus honored by his neighbors, who think him qualified to represent them in the StatP Legislature.—Ind. Gaz.

/3T The four men, who somo time since, murdered throe Union soldiers in South Carolina and were condemned to death by a military commission, had their sontences commuted to imprisonment at tho Dry Tortugas by the President, and then wore brought up to Fort Delaware, so that they might be released on habeas corpus by a "conservative Judge, which has accordingly been dono. Thus directly or indirectly, tho Executive is turning loose upon tho country a horde of thieves, counterfeiters, traitors and murderers and all these classes, of courso, vigorously support "my policy."—Cm. Gaz.

The report that Gen. Grant objected to the reinstatement of Gen. Sweeney is absolutely false. On tho contrary, Gen. Grant desired Gen. Sweeney to be promoted to a higher grade than the one he formerly held, itx tho regular army/ ,,

The Ilouse of Representatives. The following tablo shows tho result of the elections hold in 18G6 for members of Congress, compared with that of the same elections in 1861:

1866—N

STATES. R. R. D. Dolawtiro ... 1 1 Illinois .... 11 O 11 3

A 8 3

Iowa .... 6 1 1 5 5 1 4 Massachusetts.... .... 10 .. 10 6 6 Minnesota 2 •. 2 Missouri 8 f:-:' 7 2 Nevada .... 1 1 New Jersey .... 2 3 3 2 New York .... 21 10 20 11 Ohio .... 17 2 16 3 1 Pennsylvania .... .... 16 *8 18

"i

Vermont .... 3 3 ... West Virginia.... 2 1 3 Wisconsin ..." 5 1 5 1

Total 128 35 127 36

This shows a net loss of ono member. But of those elected in 1864, ten (Noell, Missouri Latham and W holey Western Virginia Raymond, New York Smith, Rousseau and Randall, Kentucky Phelps, Maryland Stillwell, Indiana,) acted on the most important questions with the President and the Democrats, against the majority of Congress, and on some questions Kuykendall, of Illinois, and Davis, of New York, voted against their party. On the other hand, Brooks and Voorhees lost their seats on contests, on tho the grounds of being elected by fraudulent votes. Deducting the Conservatives and adding the successful contestants, tho House stood 120 Radical Republicans against 45 Copperheads and Conservatives. In the now Congress, no Conservatives havo been elected on tho Republican side. The wholo 129 are straight Radicals.

From this statement, it will bo seen that in the reconstruction issue which is now beforo the country, wo have thus far actually gained nine members. We may ioso one or two members in tho election for members of Congress to bo held in 1867, in Tenuessee, but in case Colorado and Nebraska should be admitted, this loss would be balanced by the members elect from theso two States. It may, therefore, be regarded as certain that the Fortieth Congress will bo Btronger than tho Thirty-Ninth by at least nine votes.— Our majority will exceed threo-fourths on all test questions.'

A National Democratic Convention. Brick Pomcroy, the graceless political slang whanger of tho La Crosse Democrat, wants to hold a convention on the 8th of January next "for tho purpose of a thorough organization, and the adoption of a sound conservative and constitutional platform upon which the entire party, from Maine to California, can rally and battle with energy and zeal."

"The failure of the Philadelphia movement has demonstrated tho fact that the Democratic party is not disposed to abandon its organization or to make its struggle for principles under any other than its own time-hon-ored narno."

The failure of the Philadelphia movement has "demonstrated" more than that. It has demonstrated that though "tho Democratic party is not disposed to abandon its organization" tho country is disposed to abandon tho Democratic party. It is already tho most abandoned party we know of. iVcw Albany Commercial.

Terrible Famine in India. A most fearful famine has overtaken the inhabitants of India. It is said that two and a half millions havo perished in Orissa alone. Tho horror of such devastation is utterly beyond the power of expression. Tho British Government is culpable to an awful degree for not furnishing food to tho impoverished districts. In many cities the dogs feed upon the unburied dead.

A gentleman of this city, who returned last night from a trip into Martin county, informs us that extensive discoveries of tho very richest lead ore have recently beon made in that county. Martin county is rich in minerals of nearly all kinds. Coal, iron, lead, et cetera, abound in unlimited supply, and it will not be many years until Martin county will become ono among tho most important in tho Stato.—New Albany Ledger.

Our Mexican intelligence is meager but very interesting. Max. still remains in tho country, and it is said from .New Orleans ho don't intend to leave at all, and went to the sea coast merely for his health. Ortega refuses to return to New Orleans, and is tho guest of tho Commander of the United Statescolored troops on tho Rio Grand. Canales had attacked Matamora with indifferent success. Tapia had died of cholera.

James McEwen Sr., died at his residence at Rockville, Indiana, on the 8th inst, having reached the unusual ago of ninoty-fivo years and seven months.

And so they will ever seek to make tLo Home Magazine the minister of all things pure and noble the teacher, whether by story, poem or essay, that only as men live by the "Golden Rule" can they be wise or happy.

In order that our lady readors throughout tho country may have true styles of dress, we have placed our FASHION Department in tho hands of

M'MK DEMOREST, OF NEW YORK. This lady has become the arbiter of fashion in the United States, and it is gratifying to know that her taste is pure and womanly.
