And why ar# tbese enorroou# burdene continued upon ttoe country when peace -ha# pfuretM ftoreitgkout (to# tend for two years and a halff Ttoe question is eaelly answered. The country has been governed solely to advance partlaan Interoits, Instead of tlu' public welfare, and such must he tto# conviction of every candid man. To perpetuate party rule ttoo Son them States are to be Afrllanl/sd. Ten commonwealths that should contribute to the welfare and prosperity of the nation, arc to bo placed under negro rule, tto# rule of an Ignorant, degraded and almoit barf> trous race, by the flat of a radical Congrt«!». To nerompllsh that end will require an enormous outlay from the public treasury, and continue those States a charge upon the General Government for a long time to come, but what eare ttoe political lazzaroni In power for lire burdens they impose upon tint people If tbelr rule Is only contlnu*d? I'ndxr a Republican administration the country has been governed in the Interest of one section, and all the others toav# been tributary to it. llehold the fruits of radicalism I A high protective tariff which uoUOl# to ail in iiHifaoturcd articles to enrich the mnnuftoturlng interests of New England and the East. A banking system whi h adds twenty millions of dollars to our t#*#s without ony c.uupensHtion or reason. A system of Internal revenue taxation unjust and unequal In its operations and a vast burden upon the Industry o: tlio country. A military government for tft ttes at n vast cost to the public treasury and n charge upon the productive industry of t 01 country, upon the working men, the resuit of parly necessities. Tbese are some of the fruits of null cal ism. The public expend!to.ires, mi(fof tho present dynasty, ar# six fold tn 'M than they wo previous to the adveat of tlio Republican party to power. Would this be tbo case if the Government was honestly and economically administered—If the party ia power had Administrative ability f Ami where Is the remedyf Have not t ic present rulers been thoroughly tested a id found wanting? Is there any hop# for the b 'tier but iu a change of administration? The great mass of the people have no interest at s’Hke in the triumph or defeat of parties, exc'pt In tbo success of that party whose principles and policy will best promote the public welfare. And why then should partisan prejudices and pa-sions engendered and inten* siilrd by demagogues for selfish purposes, s.vay the public mind against both private and public interests? There Is no reason why they should. It is In tbo power of the people (o rovolutlonlzo the existing state of affairs and restore prosperity—a pure and oconomloul tut min 1st radon of tbo government—through, the agency of the ballot, and If they do not the responsibility oftheevlls which aflllot the country will rest upon themselves. .1 Mention Voicrs—The Election f.«w. An ImprostUon prevails that a failure to re-gi-ter on Tuesday or Wednesday last will d#pl lcf a voter of (ho right to veto to-day. Such H net the cue. The registry law especially provi b s that a voter w tK’, from any cause, has failed to Have hi* n tnvi registered previous to the day of election can do so upon the day of ©lection, and vote at tho same time. That there may bo no misunderstanding In the matter we iiuoto from section ten of tho registry Iaw to substantiate what wo say. Ilcro Is wbot the law provides: •‘No vote shall be received at any Stale, county, townstdp or city election In this State, If the name of the person offering to vote be net on said register, made on the Tuesday or Wednesday preceding the election, unless tto# pcr.on offering to vote shall furnish to the judges of the election, tils affidavit. In writing, stating therein that he Is an inhabitant of safa preedit and entitled to vote therein, at such election, and prove by the oath of a freeholder and a registered voter of the precinct in which he offers his vote, that bo knows such p«r#on lobe an inhabitant of tbe precinct, and It In any city, giving the residence of such person within said precinct. The oath may be administered by one of tho Judges or tnvpcctors of election at the poll when tbe vot# shall be offered, or by any other person authorized to administer oaths, but no person shall be authorized to receive eompensatlon for administering tho oath. The affidavits referred to in this MH'Uon shall be attached to and returned wltb laid poll lists and registry to the county clerk. Any person may be challenged, and tho same oaths shall be put as now are, or hereafter may be prescribed bylaw. Krom this provision of tho registry law It will bo s##n that any voter on acooant of absence from home, or sickness, or failure to bave his naturalization papers, or from any oaue# whatever, can have his name registered on the day of election and vote, If he fulfills the requirements ol the act from wtoloh we toav# qitoted. Tho law requires an affidavit from the person applying to be registered on tbe day of election, hence, wo would advls# all who hnvfl not registered and who desire to vote, to have the ulll lavltprepared in advaace, just as the law prescribes, to that there may b« no delay or confusion at the polls, Let no voter bo deterred from registering and voting ro-i>AY because he did not have bis name placed on tho registry on Tuesday or WeJnosday last, for bo has tbe right to do so under the law. To save time a person authorized to administer oaths will b# upon th« ground, and tbo affidavit will be administered without charge. V#«# ft Inr Principle#.

Judge CfrAflK, Salmon P. Crass, In an address at Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday night

la#t said:

”1 abide in the faith and cherish tbe sympathies you have #o often heard me avow.” TWe avewal is quit# candid on tbe part of tB# Chief Justice. Some years ago, when be was Governor of Ohio, Judge Crab* avowed extreme State rights doctrine*. He mid•*We have right# which th* Federal Government must not Invade, right* tuperior to it* aowtr, on which our tovtrtignty depend*, and We mean to assert thee# right# against all tyrannical aesumpttone of authority.” That la the faith he Inform* ue to which he stilt adheres, and the sympathies which he etlll cherishes. Jkff. Davis never expressed stronger State sovereignty sentiment# than that, and M wa# th# doctrine upon which the secessionists justified tbelr attempt to secede from the Union. If Judge Chask should preside at the trial of the rebel chieftain for treason. bis State rights record, as *-»■*—' -• kU# most ub 1 *- *--•»>-*** secessionist, would be a damaging record to bring up In judgment against him. No wonder the Chief Justice shrinks from the task. Waking tip ■« JLnet. Tbo Hound Table, a New York weekly literary, social and political Journal, ol Republican party bias, closes an article, tbe past week on negro suffrage, that shows It to be waking up at Inst to tho perils of the situation. It thus closes its article, which we commend to tbe serious attention of every patriot: “Tbe way before us is cloudy and perplexitg, and tbe situation 1# felt by tbe thoughtful to l>e one which may lead to enormous, and what flvo years ago would bave been thought Impossible, changes. Men do not claim so confidently an they once did, that the emancipation of the black race Is certain to assure tbe permanent freedom of the white. We all, of course, strive to hope for the best, hope to pass through all our troubles by peaceful and equitable means, but a contrary experience may come upon us when least expected. Tbe elections prove tbe existence of a determined feeling against a policy which Is, however, felt to be oaaentlal to (be salvation of # powerful party, bolding In It# bands extraordinary opportunities and powers. From this dilemma none can tell what may be evolved; but, unless we read the tignt of the time* and measure the antagonism* of race* very incorrectly, the national large, should such an alternative he forced upon it, would soonkr submit to a single dictator than to a million in the I’KKBONS OF BLACK MKN.” - — taT”Who controls the Southern States? Tbe radicals! We’ve been counting noses down there; some of them are flat to be sure.” So said Joun Coburn last night at tbe Saenger Hall. John thought that sounded well, perhaps it won’t look so well in print this morning, but we give him the benefit of It. The above plainly shows however, the tendency of the radicals. A great change has come over tho spirit of tbelr dreams since Morton’s Richmond speech; but to retain power they arc willing to elevate the negro to tho level of the white man.

(pT’Mechanlca and manufacturers, do you want the infernal revenue tax modified or repealed ? You feel Its inequalities and burdens every day. There Is no hope for relief under the present corrupt and extravagant administration of public affairs. Think of these things before you cast your ballots to-day. Vote tbe anti-radical tteket and help restore a pure and economical administration of tbe Government and stop tbe enormous taxation that Is eating up the substance of the people. . ■ ——» — JQTTho bondholders say that the addition of two thousand millions of greenbacks to tbe circulation of the country would make the currency so valueless that it would tako i peck to buy a breakfast. Suppose tbe Gov. ernmentshould discover two thousand millions In gold, would that addition to tbe circulation of the country make the gold of such little value that It would require a peck to buy a breakfast? Such is radical logic.

sufficient reason. Tbe crop now growing la In good condition. Apple* and peaches.—In a few of tbe State* the apple crop promisee well, but in a majority tlic yield will be f:om 10 to 40 per cent, below the crop of 1806. Peaches were mucto Injured by tho rains of July and August, and orchards which promised well early the season have proved entire failures. With tbe exception of a few .States, Ue crop fe grown for home consumptlcn or local markets, wblcb fact, together wltb the Irregularity of tbe yield in different seasons, renders U difficult to reduce tbe various estimates to nvsrages for the States, (bough we include tbe figures. Hay shows an increase m almost every State, and quite large in many of them, Pennsylvania returning an Increas# of 60 per cent.; New York, 24; Michigan, Wisconsin rad Illinois, 28; Indiana, 26; indeed, the general average will reach from 23 to 30 per cent, above tne crop of 1806, The wool clip of 1867 will probably fall from five to ten per cent, short of tbe crop of last year, attributable to the severe weather of last year, and tbe consequent exposure rad destruction of a large number of sheep. From ttoe Mobil* Trli.c no. All Wlilfe fffen IMefrMcttlaea. Mobile afforded yesterday, as stoe affords today, a striking illustration of tbe manner In wblcb radicalism has set out to govern tbe country. Her entire white population baa been disfranchised, rad her government turned over to negroea. This disfrancbUement of tbe white race is not apparent or the Awe of th* military bllla, but ft la none th# l#sa real on that account. Tbe rump, after excluding, by means of these bills, a sufficient number of whites to secure a majority to the negro vote, makes “assurance doubly aure.” by empowering registrars to revise tbelr lists to reduce ttoe number of white voters till It becomes a farce for those left to vote at all. If that is not disfranchisement, wo would like to know what dlsfran cbtsement is. We must vote to turn ttoe country over to negroes, or not vote at all. This day, and tback God for it! tbe radical party of Mobile is a negro party. A few white vampires like Horton and Griffin are still sucking Its blood, but they are not white men. And for the enjoyment of their precarious bold upon tbe black carcaas they are dependent npon tbelr facility In mingling with their negro dupes on terms of social equality. Such is tbe nature of the party tbat bolds power in tbo South to-day; tbe party tba defiled the fea#t set out by victory for th dlers who fought for (be Union; tbat hat spread black corruption over tbe land won with their blood and tbelr treasure by tbe white people of the North. Walk in berc gallant “boy in blue;” sit down there, and let ua talk this thing over. In this country tbat you have conquered, you are not allowed to vote—or what amounts to the same tbing, your vote counts for nothing unless you vote that In the late war you fought for the nigger rad not for the Union. You must vote that a negro Is quite a# good as you are, and that you would like to bxv# one for your father in law or your step son. Wa not surprised that you get angry rad rwea bard. It la quite pardonable, for yea toav# been sadly swindled. There la n#t evcm any temporary seat left lor you on tbo back of ttoe-

nigger.

Here in Mobile, a couple of Federal excolonels, who were quartermaster clertoe dor. Ing tbe war. and kept so busy they Uad no time to cut tbelr hair—two ex-colonels have been burled from ttoe nigger’s back by a loblolly man, lately connected with army boepltBtr. But wc ought not to Jest on a subject so seri-

ous as this.

We asb our Democratic brethren of tto# North to ttsbe a note of Mobile a* she etude to-day; and aa witb bar, so it la, or aoen will be, with every portion of tbe South—wUk every white mao, no matter whence he comes, that does not acknowledge the negro to be tote

social equal, virtually dialranetotsed.
