Confederate officer. The Register of the Land OfSee was a Union man, but he has done gWa service lathe cause off the " so-called," and sufficiently repented of having beeri a Union man toibe trusted. Al their, nominees for JC6ngres9,.except one, the Hon. L. S. .Trimble, have been Southern sympathizers and anti-war men. t'oLWolford, who fought gallantly . for thejUnion, was a candidate for Lieutenant Governor: but the majority could not swallow him. His record woulda't do.' There are no personal objections to the ticket. -They are men of ability and character; but a more thoroughly Southern ! party ticket could not , have been put up; and the Congressional nominations are of the same sort. . .., , ., , lie past, instead of being forgotten, has been made a test with great fidelity, Of course, they can't expect Union men who have not repent ed of the sin of having put down the rebellion, to support this ticket. They will, no doubt, bank altogether on the sins of the Radicals, and, if they could upset this Radical party, we should have some temptation to aid then, in that. Rut, unfortunately, the Radicals can bank as largely on their Sins, and these Radicals have jail advantages. ; They have the power now. In fact, this so-called Democracy' in this State are the' man--agersof the Radical Ordinance Department, and furnish a plenteous supply of ammunition to kill off the Democratic party of the Northern States. ' , These Democrats were notoriously against the war for the Union. They sympathized with the effort to break up toe Union.. Some of them are rewarded by office for their active zeal in the lost eause. The Radicals can ask at home, with terrible effect, will you trust this party with the power of the Union? ' Will they not make use of it to accomplish a purpose they desired to accomplish, and . which they still believe a good one? What will be the popular reply at the polls? Surely we ought to act in this State so as to give Conservative men North pome chance. But they are reduced to silence.. Here is the fact presented. The dominant party in Kentucky have, with great uniformity of action, revived the Southern rights party, and made friendship for the " lost cause" a test for office. Those who were practically the Secessionists in Kentucky have taken control of the State. What they would do, if occasion offers, we infer from what they did do at the commencement of the war and during its continuance. . . . . Now, we have done all ' for these Southern rights men that they could .reasonably ask. We protested against their secession sin and blunder, which has brought the country to its present condition. We never voted to disfranchise them even during the war. We accorded to them the full right of discussion and party action." We . have done our full share to restore them to all rights in this State. We accord to, them every Constitutional right now. But we insist now , that that they should do something rationafor : themselves.; They , ought to know, the situation ot this . country,, and how utterly powerless they are ; how unlikely it is that they can help themselves, pr . the State, by such a movement as" this; how little likely . they are to help the South, in .which they i profess so much interest: how little likely to defeat the Radical party, or help their friends North to do it. They must excuse us from helping this ticket.. Personally, we should lik,e to do it. We respect the personal merit of many of the gentlemen nominated; but their position will not do. We could, nat help either them or the State or the country by supporting them, as the matter now stands. - ;If they are in accord with the Democratic party vof the country.it is all the worse for the Democratic party: if they support the President, it will be all the worse for him. Such help can only damage, not benefit him. The "people, who have the power in this country, intend to preserve it as ope country, and they have the power to do it; aaa we have seen that they will use, itat discretion, and without scruple.' 'Those who undertook . to disiae thi country, or who sympaiMaiHl Trith the effort, are not merelv " zero !h political power in this country . they are a negative quantity.' "They may get local or State offices; but oniy a Union party will ever get Fed . era! control in this generation. The Radicals are only in danger now of losing power because tbey stand in-the way of restoration; but with all the outrages on constitutional or civil liberty, they will be supported as long as their; opponents can , be made out to be in sympathy with the "lost cause." . We shall b told by the discriminating shallow-pates that we are denying thq right Of Confederate? or their sympathizers to hold office. , On the contrary, we maintain their right to do just whatithey have done.t Men have a right t(V'do foolish things1 t tneir discretion ; but they need iwt do it be

cause they have a right to, and we need not help them do it because they have a right to do it. Reconstruction. The Measure Finally Adopted. .
