Tbe Kernel was especially elokent.es be spoke uv the grstenis qt Gineral Frank Blare, which be bed a rite to admire. Ther wus sutbio about him so noble, so grand, so patriotic, end ao troo, that he felt that he mast weave one little oratoricle chaplet for bis clssikle brow. Ea a sojer, be sbood cbeerfljr support a sojer. Ut coerce I tri de tbe regier speech wich is alius expected qt me. I slung slightly into the biogrpby ut oar cheeftsins, I tribooted meekly to ther good qualities ut bead and heart, discussed the platform, and commended it, and wound up with an impressive appeal to tbe Democricj to rally to their support without division or hesitancy. 1 wes sbout gittin fairly ianehed into my peroration, when Elder Peonibacker arose. He remarkt be bad a word wich be must ssy. 'Certainly, Elder," sed I, "say yoor say. We want all the faithful to speek. Free yoor mind. Gush onto us." "1 sh-ll,M sed tbe Elder, "trust me fer tbst. To begin with I perocuoce this entire bisnis a most oomitigated awidle. 1 may possibly rote the Seymour ticket, but 1 don't like it. A man who et a crow wunit remarkt that while he cco! eat crow, he coodeot conshienshusly say that he hankered after it. Even ao with the nominahun. I wus and am a Pendle Ionian; I am a bleever in the doctrin ut greenback payments ut the bocds. I lis'int noboods myself, I, in common with the heft ut the Dimocrisy, hate and loath' tbe party wich is erindin us into dust with taxsshun for tbe payment ut the uni. coostooshoel debt. I wus a i'endletonian, for it wus the first step toarda repoodiashen, and repoodiatheo is a balm lor all Dimocralio wounds. aNcw trat did the delegates wich assembled at Noo York mean wen they put eich a man rz Seymore on tbe track?

Our convensben at Shecago declared the war a failyoorand the Dimocrisy opposed to it, but wat folle red. Why they nominated towunst a solder whose sword wss a drippin in gore, end who wus ea for vontinyooin tbe war on us es the old jroriller Linkin hisself. Is this Dimocrisy? I ask t my elf. Kf so count me out. "Whst difference is the aitoosshee now? We declared agin the non payment ut the bond in euny but greeubax, wich is equivalent to not pay to uv'etu at all, end forthwith went to Noo York, where 1, yoor spesker, wss enticed by a Strang womsn, and lost my watch sad a black ratio Test, my boota aod eight dollara and sixteen cents, all the money 1 hed, wich it would beT bio the ssme bed it bin more similarly, aod put in nomioasbeo a tnao wich sleeps onto bonds and spends the left ut his time a cuttin off coopoosl Brethren, if I beT to pay the debt wat difference docs it make to wbo levies the tsx? I ken atand it ex long under Grant ex I kin under Seycrore. It sio't the per. soo wich levies the tsz wich I objeck to, so much ea it is the levyio ut the tax. If I have to pay gold why not es well under Urant eiSeytuorer 'Likewise ia my aole vexed at another thing, wich I can t or won't git over. On iny wsy to Noo York, where I wss ao vilely yoosed, I was compelled for twenty miles either to stand up or set down in the seat with a dirty nigger, Joe Williams, A DELEGATE TO TUE CoNVENSIIUN, whose mother I wuost owened. That he ia a mulatto don't help the matter. That delegates on the train fancies ther saw in his face my feechers refleckted, don't mske it any better. He is a nigger, snd my politikle faith is based upon the indooiin rock that a nigger aiot es good cs a white man. That ia Dimocratio doctrine. I took it in with my mother's milk, and I csn't git rid ut it. And yit I wus compelled to associste with this nigger on terml uvekslitv all the wsy down to Noo York, where I lost my vest, at settry, sod bis sett in the Convenshun wus next to mine. I stood this, but at our boardio house, only two squares from whar I lost my boots, sc, with tbe Auencsn flag fioatin over our heads I wus compelled, in coorekence ut the house bein crowded, to sleep with himl And tbe infamous stink, in absolootly bed the impoodence to objeckt to tbe arrsogement becoa cs he sed, ur tzet smelt! Then tbe iron entered ay soult Then I felt that the Dimocrisy wus trooly a sucked egg a shell without coy meat iu it. "When I saw that nigger in that conTensbun, I felt that the pillars ut tbe Hepublic wus a totterin, that the chaos wus come agio.

And the teers rolled down tbe Elder's nose, tbe pearly white thereof formin pendants wich glittered like diamonds in eon trsst with the red nose at the end ut wich tha hung. "Now wat is to be done? Am I to accept niggera ex my ekal? Am I to vote beside ut the Joe Williamses ut Kentucky? Am I to ride with em, aod eat with em, and sleep with em, and beT the stinkio wretches objeck to the oder ur my feet, and all this at the bidding ot Dimocrisy?

They denounced the poor old man ex a disorganiser sod a bolter, aod es one wbo hedn't that faith which shood animate all troo Dimocrats. Wat ef we coodeot understand it, wat tbeu? sed the Deacoo. Kin too understand tbe mysteries of nacber? Kin yoo understand why one tree bears aour apples, and one jweet? But yoo eat the apples, askin uo questions for consie o ccs sake. Even so.

He knows pcrfecktly well that watever eay ut ua receive from the Goveromeut will evenchooally find its its way into bis till. Yoo can't eothoote a man who hes ded wood on a good thing no matter how the cat jumps. I rix and remarkt that I shood not set the Corners onto the Elder, out ut respek for hix gra hares, tbo his infidelity and cotoomaey richly deserved it. He mis tskes the oscher ut Dimocrisy. Its a secomidatin politix. Like a wire bridge, it swings to and fro with every wind, but the too ends are sccoorly ankered. One butmeot is votes, and leadia from that to the other ix Post Ollis. To mske these pints, wat difference ix it how the bridge bends and sways? .Just now it sweeps down the stream to ckality, and twists so as to include Seymore snd his gold, but halleloouy, at the other end ut the divious path is Post Orfis.

"THE UNION, THE CONSTITUTION, AND THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAWS

General Kimball on State Finances. We tske the following from a speech which Geo. Kimball delivered to a vast concourse of people at New Albany, Ind., on the 4tb iost: "The financial condition of Indiana, under the management of the Republican party, challenges the admiration of every State in the Union, of the people everywhere. Equipping and placing in the field vast armies, bestowing upon tbe sick aod wounded soldiers in the hospitals acsttered throughout the land a wonderful care, aod making for tbetn the most munificent provision of everything necessary to relieve their sufferings or contribute to their comfort; repelling frequent incursions cf the enemy ioto the State; sending her cllU ti tha til cf or tghloring'snd beleaguered States; and inskiug tb amplest provision to meet every emergency that the chances of wsr might give rise to, it is not to be wondered at that India oa'a expeoditures during the. war were immense. Yet there ia no debt now remaining unprovided for caused by the war. The State treasury was never io better condition; the pubiio debt hanging over the State prior to tbe breaking out of the war hss been to a great extent paid off; and no State In tbe Union can to day show a fairer record, financially, than the great and patriotic State of Indiana. Here were millions of money to handle and pass through the bands of its officials. Yet not one dollar of all tbe vast sum wss ever misappropriated; not one dollar of defalcation ever occurred. No man can to day stand up and charge the Republican officials of Indiana with peculation or misapplication of the people's money. To tbe Republican party of Indiana is all tbe bonor due tor tbia .excellent financiala showiog for this condition of tbe State finances. "Are the people willing to take from a party that has proved so faithful to all its' trusts the lease of power entrusted to it, and place that power io the hands of a party that has proved itself hostile to all the great interests of the State and nation? I can not believe that they are. I have too strong a faith iu tbe wisdom, the patriotism, aod the discretion of the people of Indiana to believe that tbey desire any change." The "Carpet Baggers." Gen. Pope, in makiog a speech before tbe Missouri Convention, the other dsy, opened out io livery style io regard to carpet baggers, Here is a sample: "Jefferson Davis said: Democrats were a humbug, which bad exploded, aod that there was only one true kind of gov ernment possessing dignity and respect, and that waa an aristocracy founded on slavery; in tbe conduct of which aristocracy no man should be entitled to vote unless he posscHced so many slaves. That tbe ''unbridled Democracy hid no rights; stid latter day Democrats ssy, that 'carpet bag' Democracy or Republicans have no rights, io other words, poor men have no rights; that tbey who can say with truth, however learned and cultivated they may be otberwie if, with the old Latin phi losophcrs, tbey can eay, Omnia mea dorsum portG t. e., all my world's goods I carry oa my back that those otherwise learned and wise mea have no rights, which plethoric purscproud . aristocracy, with or without braias, is bound to respect. Why, Henry Clay was a carpet bagger. When he left his mother's home to seek bis fortune ia tho great world of men, a carpet-bag would have held more than he claimed of the world's goods. That great statesman aod world beloved martyr to free government, Abraham Lincoln, waa once a "carpet bagger. He left bis native hills with not a very large car-pet-bag full of clothes, and mske his wsy to this great western world, where he grew, sod labored, and thought, sod studied, uotil his great soul expanded to a comprehension of the rights of Men, regardless of color, race, or purse. "Indeed tho men of energy wbo now throng this country, and whose ideas and actions control tbe prosperity of our land, were also carpet badgers once men who were not afraid to leave their fathers' manisoosand meet tho great world in all its reality, because they had confidence in their own brains and manhood to carry them through whatever might present itself; and tbey have battled and won the greatest victories of thought and progress, over wbioh the world to-day clasps its bands and thanka tbeso poor hard-workers, for. Humboldt and Bayard Taylor were "csrpet-bsggcrs," Aye, and the Pilgrim Fathers, who were they? Why, carpet-bsggerl Poor men, who would not brook tbe oppressions of tbe old priestridden, puna proud aristocracy of England, like men of soul, filled their sacks and sought a Isnd where Men constitute the State; where thought and soul com. bined to do right, and leave man where God plsccd him a living soul, who should earn bis bread by the aweat of his brow.

BROOKVILLE, IND., FRIDAY. AUGUST 28, 1868.

Slanders Against General Grant. General John M. Palmer, the republican candidate for Governor of Illinois, in a speech which he made in that State a few days since, thus replied to tbe slanders on Genersl Grant: ; Now whst did they do? One thing they did was to nominats candidates for President. The Republican Convention nominated Ulyssea rf. Grant. Cheers. This is all tbe history I have to give of him. . I hsve not one more word to say. I am not compelled to travel round to tell you wbo be is. There is not a man, nor a woman, nor a child above the age of infancy in the Republic, who has not beard the name of Ulysses S. Grant, Applause. Tbe Union men know it and Up it. Tbe rebels know if and dread it. Great applause. But all know it. There is our candidate for that position. I may, however, just as well mske one remsrk here. I see, in reading tbe newspspers, that the Democrats have discovered that he don't know anything be can't make a speech. Laughter. No, be can't make a speech. I don't think be ever tried! But tbe rebels know be can "make his mark." Grest applause We know be did make it. ' Tbey say be "talks horse," you recollect. 1 beard a very distinguished Democratic speaker say tbe other day, "What do you want of a President that talks horse?" I would rather a President would talk horse thsn talk treason a Rood deal. Laughter. 1 1 would rather have the plain common sense of Ulysses S. Grsnt than the arts ot rhetorio and diplomacy of a certain individual that I have in my mind's eye. "Tbat'a so." I shall have occasion to show you how that gentleman talks directly. Yes, Gen- ! ersl Grsnt suits us perfectly. Now, our oppuiuia no dcrtisur wicuircit va uiuvu over one thing. They tell ua that "Grsnt gets drunk." And, by tbe wathat bad better not prove that; for if don't break up the Democratic party I am mistaken. Tbey don't mean that it shall be believed! I saw the other day that some man characterised him as a coward. Does thai charge need aoy refutation? "No, no; not a" bit of it." I was very forcibly reminded, when 1 read these charges against Grant, of what Governor Scott of Kentucky, said to a hot headed young fellow who challenged the old gentleman to fight him a duel. All of you old old men know that Governor Scott was, of all the men iu Kentucky, in Kentucky's best days, one of the most distinguished for courage. Well, as I have said, some young jaybird of a fellow got angry with the old gentleman and challenged him to ficht a duel.; The old man said be would not accept it. Then the youngster wrote' him a letter saying, "If you don't accept, I will post you aa a coward." "Very well," aaid tho old hero, "you post me as a coward, and then all tbe men of Kentucky will know what I know now, that you are a liar." Great applause and laughter. And so, io regard to all this denunciation of General Graut, I have but this one remark to make. "The people will not believe them. The people will not believe aa I do, that; you can add the balance yourself. Laughter. It is of no use, fellow citizens, to prefer these personal charpes against General Orant, for they can be met and contradicted by more than a quarter of a million of brave soldiers who have seen him on all the battle fields of the Republic. Great applause." I have, therefore, no further comments to make upon this subject, but if it would do any Democrat aoy good to believe that Geoeral Grant is a drunkard, believe it. If it will do you aoy good to believe he "talks bone" aod nothing else, believe it! Don't trouble yourselves! If you don't want to vote for him you needn't, because I don't thtnk we need your vote. By the way, I will give you warning, right heie, of one thing. It' you oome io among tbe supporters of General Grant jou bad better come in sooo. The fact that Jo. Williams, a colored man Irom Tennessee, allowed himself to bo made a delegate to the New York Democratic Convention, rather shook tho faith of the country iu the fellow's integrity, and numerous inquires ware instituted into his history, lie proves to be a genuiite "carpet-bagger," having been burn and raised in Philadelphia, and baying resided in Washington at tbe outbreak of tho rebellion.' What manner of mau be is can be luferrcd from a iketch of his subsequent csrecf, wnioii we fiud in the Detroit 1'ott. The writer, an ex army, officer, ssys: Wben Major Deorge Stesrns, of Boston, waa sent by the Governor to Nashville, in ltiG3, to raise and organise colored troops, having becomo acquainted with Mr. Willisms, he took hi in along to assist in raising rocruits. Not meeting his expectations. Williams was assigned to my regiment (Thirteenth U. S. C. I.) ss sergeant major, from which poeit'ou he was reduced to tho ranks within two months, 'for incompetency sud disobedience of orders.' From that time forward tbe 'guard-house report' will give his principal record, lie wss courtmsrtialed three times, and sentenced to bard labor with ball and chain, and loss of pay; waa sent to the guard houo dosens of times by his commanding officers for insolenco and disobedience; was alwaya taken aick when a march or fight - was anticipated; was never in any but fist fights, in which be was alwaya at fault and aura to get whipped; was Muiesing' st the buttle of Nashville aud the subsequent campaign against Hood, in which bis regiment took a prominent part, and wss held in contempt by the lowest private in bis regiment." This is just tbe material out of which to ooostruct a Seymour-BIair Democrat, and help build up "a white man's government," with negro aid. It must be a very mean, low, cowardly "nigger," wbo would enlist under the banner of the op

pressors of bis race, aod trsin with rebels and Copperhead. lie is a fit candidate for universal contempt. Journal. A German Campaign Article. Tho New York Criminalxeitung, a German weekly paper, which has a very large circulation among the Germane of this country, contains the following article io its last issue: The Presidential campaign, aa fsr as the North is coocerned, is no very passionate one till now, although aome newspapers are not free of utterances of ire. Tbe quiet of the North is chiefly to be explained by the uneasiness in the South, which shows the North what duty it has to perform. There were indeed in no campaign more principles involved than there ia in the present one, and nearly everybody knows whst to do. If on one side are Wade Hampton aod Forrest, and on tbe other side Grsnt and Sheridan, no doubt can rise, because the form of Frank Blair ia to be seen between both aides. One party says: "Down with Congress aod its reconstruction-," while the other party wants to support Congress in its national policy, and to maintain its work aod complete it. Here they are threatening a new civil war, while there we bear tbe words: "Let us have peace." Here tbe disputing and doubting of tbe obligations contracted by tbe nation is stigmatized as a crime, while on the ether svda tcey openly demand tbe breach of a solemn promise. Under such circumstances it csnnot be bard for a man to set himself right, and there is no cause for him to be exaperated. Who likes Forrest and Wade Hampton will join their company. Those who are just enough of such persons during tbe wsr, will keep awsy from, them. Who wishes the country most of all peace, will vote for Grant and Colfax. Who thinks that the interests of tbe country demand a new rebellion, renewed bloodshed, will join those wbo declare things done and existing null and void, aod whose theory, if executed, would have no other mea nine but civil war. Ouite as nreciseIv and naturally the followers of the diffcrent ideas about the sanctity or oullitv4 of a cootracted debt will separate from each otber. Io all these questions there is so little room left for mistake, and the principles are ao plain that it would bo foolish to treat of subordinate questions. We believe that the majority of the people want peace. We believe tbe country will not frvolovsly squander what was won by so hard a struggle, and expose the ship of state to new storms. We believe the people do not intend to restore to power those persons wbo caused the country so much misery. We are convinced that the American people will pay their debta exactly aa tbey were contracted. We, on our part, patiently wait for the result of the csmpaign, and our only wish is tbat'the people might treat with contempt those men who try to desecrate the struggle for piinciples by personal attacks. We never shall slander tbe private character of Seymour or Blair, or deny the merits of these men in their respective spheres. But we expect and demand that oar adversaries in princples will show the same justice to our candidates. The fair fight is for men, the diehonorable one for knaves. ... ... - The Presldenoy. Weighed and found wanting Hampton! Democratic "Brick" dost The LaCrosse Dcmocratl A stsndard Democratic; work "Blair's Rhetoric!" "Wilt thou?" said the Tammany Convention to Seymour and he wilted. Tbe name of Seymour after November will be changed by popular vote to See-no-more. The Manchester (N. II.) Democrat ssys that Chsse wrote most of the platform adopted by tbe Democratic Convention. Seymour's physicians aay he is likely to become craty within a year. If he has any hopes of defeating (jr.aU be is crssy slready. . ' General Grant has a great advantage over his antagonists. He whipped them once, and his prestige will go a great waya iu doing it sgain. "Killing two birds with one stone" Vsllandiham "totnnhtiwking" Pendleton and cutting out Thuriuau by the nomine tion of Seymour. When Seymour whispering "he would ne'er consent" contented, be fell back and let Pi ice take the chair, So, true it is that every mau has his "Price." Seymour Man I tell you what, Sir, Democracy is looking up. Grant Man Well, you bogus Democrscy is so flat on its back that it can't look any othcrway, The continued hot weather hss a depressing effect on churches. Among those which have closed for the summer isSanford K. Church the congregation preferring to worship in some other Democratic temple. Frank Blair said to the crowd which he was addressing in New York on Friday, "I wish I could croan aa well aa: you do." He will have a chance to develop bis groaning powers on the night of the November election. An old Democrat of Johnson county wss debating with his neighbors the probabilities of the Tammany Hall nouioatioo and expressed the opinion that John J. Crittenden, of Kentucky, would be the candidate. Seymour is as dead as Crittenden. Here ia a little modern Shakspear be. twveo two chaps who don't stand the ghost of a chance: Blair.

When the animal has filled himself, he masticates the food thus stowed away io his stomach, raising it cud by cud.. Wbeo a portioo is completely masticsted, it pssses to another receptacle, and the progress of digestion goes on. Thus ao ox, if left to himself, will raise aod masticate all the food thus stowed awsy in his stomaeh. If he be pushed aod worked hard, and does not have time to masticate, he falls off io flesh, bis healtd is poor; bis digestion incomplete. The horse, on the contrsry h owever much in a hurry be may be, must mssticate each mouthful before be swallows it. A hungry ox, let into a meadow, will fill himself io twenty mioutcs, while a horse would want at least an hour and twenty minutes to tako the same amount of grass. The ox, deer, sheep, goat, chamois, and rabbit, being tbe natural prey of ferocious beasts, are endowed with tho extra stomach in which hastily to stow sway the food without mastication. Tbls may, perhaf , be regarded aa a wise provision of Nature enabling them to sally forth were the food is nlentv. and in a short time fill themselves and retire to a placo of safety to ruminate their food at their leisure. The Washington correspondent of (be Boston Advcrtitcr says: A gentleman from Tennessee says tbst several delegates from that State to the New York Convention are going to sopport Grant sod Colfrx. Jt is further stated that they get their eoe from the White Houe, and that tbe President, while he will nut come out for Grant will do nothing either officially or politically to help Seymour. Per contra, the Washington correspondent of the Boston J'vit, who ia io the President's confidence, says: President Johnson assured your correspondent to day that tho ticket bad bis best wishes, and would receive all the support tbe Federal Executive was able to give. The Providence iVfss aaya: "Some of the papers are writing of 'the mysteries of Frank Blair's nomination.' It ia not half as much a mystery aa were the peculiar tactics of tbe Albany Regency, when tbey were killing off Pendleton, Chase, Hancock, Hendricks & Co., in tbe Democratic Convention. The 'little joker appeared ander the right cup at tbe proper moment, however, and Captain Uyndera bcougbt out the already prepared monitor, and tbe great chief dried up his tears." It may he said, in fine, that tbe Demo cratio ticket appeals to all who love liberty to all who yearn lor peace and prosperty. iVrw Orlcant Getcenl.

It is remsrkable bow quickly and ' audaciously the old secession and ret I leaders of the Southern States have sprung to the foreground since tbe Domination of Horatio Seymour. , Previous to that event, aod ever since the destruction of the rebel - Confedersey by the Union sVins, iLey had either refrained from forcing themselves upon public attention io their old poition ef leaders, or they had come forward ia something like a becoming attitude, la exercise their influence with the people i favor of the recognition of tbe new order of thioga which had riseo after the settlement of tha pro-alavery qneslioo. But now and thia ia the thing to which we wish especially to call the attention of the loyal American citixens we not ooly see the old time secessionists coming forward to resume their former places aa leadera of sfioirs, but we see them coming forward to glorify the rebel cause, to vioaicate its claims, to reassert its preteasioos, to advocate its a access and to proclaim their hopes of triumph. This is the startling spectacle which we have witnessed during the loat two or three weeks.' We have sien men bearing 'each illomened names as Wise, Toombs, Vance, Yerger, Temmes sod Hampton, proclaiming to that remuant of the Southern people which did oot fall bloody victims tu their accursed rebellion, that, io the triumph of the Democracy there ia yet life for the "lost cause," and io the election of Seymour, there is hope fur the detestable principles which, but three . brief years ago, we supposed had beeo shot ioto political predition by a million of American riflea.' We have seeo the fire-eater Wise proclaiming publicly that secession is not dead, but ia waitiog for tbe opportunity of its reassertion through the revolutionary party which has juit takeo the field. We have heard the fire-eater Toombe firoclaiming the doctrine of nullification o the old fasb'ion, utteriog the same de aunoiatious of the old with all the former bitterness, pouring his maledictions oa the brave meo who have ssved the Unioo, and threatening to "resist to the death" the laws which establish political equality and freedom of suffrage throughout the South: We have aeeo the implacable secessionist Vauee proclaiming that "what tbe Confederacy fought for would be woo through the election of Seymour." We have seen "Chronometer" Semmea of tbe Alabama, proclaiming at Mobile Isst Moodsy, at a Democratic ratification meeting, tbst be ' bad been a Democrat all his life before the wsr, daring the war, aod since the war sod fought tbe war on the principles of Democracy, be. lieving that the grand old Constitution which embodied these priociples about to be destroyed." And theo, after hia' declaration that be had carried out hia cooatitutional idem on the rirate decks of tha ship which the gallant Winslow sent to tbe bottom of tbe see, we fiud him sonouncing oo the same occaiion: "And now, fellow citixens, I hsve come here to declare that I have iciven in soy allegiance, heart and soul, to the old fiag, pro vided we can roMore the old flag again to be the representative of the triucitles of the'constitutioii, wbioh we will be able to effect by tbe election of Seymour and Blair." And still agsin, at the ssme meeliog, he asserted that a Dtoiocretio ouceess "will agaio reduce the negro Jo a subordinate couditiou, aa tbe inferior raoo, and restore tbe white man to tbe government which belongs to him." We have seen Wade II flpton. the Carolina rebel leader, going rund among tbe young men of tbe Virginia collees Klorifyiog the rebel cause, and reassert ing its priutiples; we fiud him coming North here aa a Democratio delegate to threaten renewed resistance aud another rebellion if his unjustifiable claims are deniedby the Government; we find bin ia Baltimore on Thursday last reminding the Dcmocratio association of the time when "I was a soldier in tbe glorious army of Northern Virgioia, and the sons of Msryland swept across the borders aod agsin atood side by side with South Carolioa in a great contest of liberty;" and we find him, to the ssme speech, and al most io tbe same aentence, mingling the praises ot tbe rebel Ueuersls with tbe , eulogies of Horatio Seymour, ad the past triumphs of tbe Confedersey with the expected victories of tbs Democracy. What haa enoourssed all tbe old se cession leaders of the South to come oul and rush around io this wsy at the pres ent time? What haa led them to utter such language to indulge in auch hopes to proclaim auch schemes? Are they ignorant of what they are -about? Are they talking without knowing what they aay? Are they plaoniujr without under standing the ground they tread upon? It is mortifying snd bunnUatioa Io hesr the language and see the rtten sious and domouistrationa of these old secession lesders. llardlv hsve tbev been compelled to surrender their arms beforethey were sgain assuming the airs of a dominaut and domioeering party. Hardly have we got through the work of Quelling the rebellion before we see it again preparing for action. Hardly have we got throagh tbe ssnguinary labor of crushing their cause and principlea before they are again proclaimed as though they bsd never been seriously wounded. It ia evident that the loyal people of tha country must rally at the polls to tesch the Democratic paity, and these secession lesders who look for it to carry out their schemes, a lesson even more severe tbst it got tour yeara arw. A Southern journal calls Seymour our Horatio, mind you the "Artful Dodger." Hisvent! The grsy uniform well bt-cnwesSeyuiour, but how docs it fit Frau I, Blair?
