"THE early demise of Mr. HENDRICKS' Presidential aspirations leaves him standing candidate for the Senate, to the infinite disgust of Mr. VOORHEES, whoee longing eyes have been turned in that direction for several weary years.

THEBE are a dozen Democratic heirs expectant of Mr. VOORHEES' seat iii the House who will make a noble and unselfish effort to secure for our C. the nomination for Congressman at large, should the apportionment mil beoomc* law. v-

SENATOR SCHUBZ is not likely to get his usual terms for campaign speeches next summer. CARL will regard this as an afflictive dispensation. He had "a •oft thing" when he used to get paid twice for each effort—once by the national *nd again by ibcil coAnoittees.' .1

THE "Journal" givtea editorial prominence, and apparent approval, to the New York "Sun's" nomination

Dana, E.-q

TRUMBULL

as the Democratic candidate for the Presidency. This is a marked departure from the "Journal's" previous course on the same subject, but that organ is a famous gymnast.

THE Democratic mind is vigorously agitated over State Superintendent HOPKINS' address in favor of compulsory education. The probability is that he will be set aside when his party meets in State Convention to make up its ticket for the campaign. It was a cruel joke for the State Teachers' Association to arrange for the general distribution of that lecture!

THE New York "Sun" threatens to afflict its readers, for another year, with its little joke about "that truly good man, Deacon RICHARD SMITH, of the Cincinnati *08X6116,' and his wicked partners." It was funny up to the five hundredth repetition, but, unlike Egypt's Royal wench, age has withered it, and custom has staled its limited variety.

IT IS evident that Mr. VOORHEES' last solemn valedictory to public life has not been accepted, by his political friends, as having any practical application. They do not regard him as one who has drhwh the drapery of his political funeral couch about him, but rather as a warrior girding on his armor for battle. A Sullivan correspondent of the "Journal" thus expresses the desires of "our people" relative to the future of^his voluntarily retired politician:

Our people desire to see Mr. Voorhees in the Senate Chamber, and it his election to Congress will tend to that end we are for it if the race to represent the SlAteat large in the next Congress will assist in placing the Honoribje gebtlemen in the Senate our people ar« for that. The Democracy of this, county will be sorry to part from Dan. as their direct representa tive in .the Congress of the nation, but they recognize ^uit1 faithful service^ like hffe thould recei^eits reward, and if the coai(imkion of politics falls in his favor, they will pave the way that shall invest him with Senatorial honors,

Terre Haute is the home of three distinguished men that at present are talked of by our people, Voorhees, Hanna and Bill Mack. With such a trio of talent, any city might be proud.

And now abide three men, DAN, BATLESS and W ILLIAM, and the greatest of these is DAN. When he is fed to satiety ithe other two are welcome to scramble, with the mob, for any crumbs that may remain.

Dana's Opinion of ttrant. Among the personal enemies of General Grant and his administration, few have been more venenriously conspicuous than Mr. Charlea^A. Dana of the *Netr York "Sun." A document has recently been brought to light, however, which shows that Mr. Dana has not always entertained the opinions which he now expresses in the "Sun." It is a campaign life of General Grant, bv Charles A.

a short extract: "Early in 1860 he accepted a proposition from his father to remove to Galena, and join his brothers in the leather business. Devoting himself with industry and good sense to his new occupation, he soon became familiar with all its branches, and achieved a fair degree of success. But, not being at all demonstrative in his manners, nor inclined to take an active part in town affairs, he made but few acquaintances, and those mostly..among, the people with whom hf hwJ bSttPess^ A few of the bestMatixens had broken through his natural reserve and had discovered the sterling qualities of the man, though it is but fair to say that no one then suspected that the modest, quiet and obscure leather dealer would ever become the most distinguished man of his time, "When the rebellion was precipitated upon the country by the attack on Fort Sumter, Grant had just attained hi* thir-ty-ninth year, and having been blessed with a strong and elastic constitution, an equable temper, a stout and well set fig nre, capable of great endurance, he had passed through the various experiences of his life with continually increasing pow ers.

In his preface, Mr- Dana says he has collected for |Jr» people "all the informaffen4lgeg nttiiwilly desire mpectiatf this gtitalylqgii^ sincere patiM,.fcnd nfciar&l ft astute statesman." Concerning the

political predilections of General Grant, Dana aays that although he had voted for Buchanan, he "had become convinced before the war that this, his first and only vote had been a grievous mistake

It' is not our purpose to inquire what were the reasons which persuaded Mr. Dana into a change of opinion concerning the President. It is well known, however, that the New York Custom House had a great deal to do in "modifying" that gen tleman's estimate of Andy Johnson, and we are not without hope that the same high considerations prompted the revolu-

MR- Scuuitz begins to suspect that his oft-repeated boast of "controlling the German vole" isn't going to pan out well next season. His influence among the German Republicans of these parts never was great, and is now scarcely perceptible to the naked eye.

Horrible Crimes.

Here is a brief extract from ihe Cincinnati "Gazette's" Columbia, South Carolina, correspondence. We hope the "Journal" will Bee it and make it the occasion of a few tears over the sad fate that has overtaken its dear, afflicted KuKlux friends:

All the ingenuity of counsel is entirely at fault in trying to devise means by which their clients may escape the punishment they so richly deserve. The law has overtaken them, and they now stand face to face with it, with the crimes they have committed in all their naked deformity etarjing them full in the face, s&orh to aa^aloresitidj'lii nearly every in stknee, b}- some of' the "perpetrators of them in person. Every day the accounts of killing, and whipping, and ol nameless crimes, the details ol »hich can not be placed before the world in any newspaper, pile up in enormity, and on two occasions I have seen witnesses tears from their eyes I mean members of the order—when they were narrating the circumstances of a killing, and one prisoner could not refrain from groaning audibly. Let it be remembered that these are facts not colored at all, but only partly given for the reason before mentioned bare facts, such as the world seldom hears of, and, indeed, more than we, who have lived in the midst of where they were transpiring, were prepared to hear. Let it be re membered, too, that all these things have been deliberately and systematically planned and executed by the leaders, and the rank and file ot the Democratic party, not in this Slate alone—for the Grand Mogul lives in Nashville—which in the very articles of organization and in the oath provide, under the penalty of death to themembers, that the first aim shall be "to put down Republicanism and pro tect the Constitution as handed dofrn by our forefathers, and to nullify in particular and render of no avail, the 13th, 14th, and 15th constitutional amendments." How this has been carried out I have only given brief illustrations, yet enough, when one reads believing—and how can they do otherwise with the testimony that has been given?

"Preservers" of the "Constitution in its Furity." The Cincinnati "Commercial" of the 3d inst. has an excellent article, under the above caption, from which, TOB clip the closing paragraph:

Can *e cease to wonder lhat all over the North, too, there are newspapers and politicians who deny where they can, apologise where they must, and dffend where* it is possible the mounted and masked conservatives of South Carolina who have devoted their time to maiming and killing, in the name of the Constitution and the Democratic party. They are ready enough to make outcry when a parcel of blacks, maddened by the cowardly murder ol one of iheir number in Arkansas, rise in arms and take bl9ody vengeance on their persecutors. That is fearlully unconstitutional but to kill, stab, whip, burn, ravish, destroy, in South Carolina, week after week, and month after monlh, those whose offend ing is a refusal to cooperate with them politically—there is nothing in all this deserving condemeaiiun, for it is done in the name of Democracy and the Constitution of the Fathers. But for the legislation of Congress and the action of the hxecutive, the Constitution worshipers of South Carolina would be riding over the country to day, murdering and maltreating the helpless and inoffensive, without a single voice frem the Democratic press in de nunciaiion of their proceedings. It is only when they are dragged to the light, and shown to be the pitifullest ruffians and ragamuffins that walk the earth, that mild words of disapprobation are extorted from the lips of those in whoxe party name they have made the earth red with blood.

Gambetta was not allowed by the police to leave the hotel, for fear that his appearance would lead to further disturbances. He advises his friends not to persist in collecting in large bodies in the streets, or attempt resistance to the authorities.

It is autboritively asserted here that the legality of the election will be tested at once, and that the matter will be fought in the courts to the end.
