Vise Leases mi tfee Elacilans. The Journal la discussing the lesson of the elections remarks, “that reconstruction scarcely figured in the canvass.” In this declare tlon It differs materially wlfV its Republican cotemporaries all over the country. The Cincinnati OattUe, whose radicalism will not be questioned, and the editor of which was a defeated candidate, furnishes this evidence as to the character of the canvass. It says: No one need deny that there Is a reaction against the radical policy of making black States In the South. The New York Commercial Aiveriiter, another leading Republican organ, gives its testimony as follows: The result did not turn half so much on the question whether colored men should vote In Ohio, as whether we should, by military law, convert the Carolines, Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, etc., into St. Domingos? We could reproduce similar declarations from the radical press East and West, North and South, but it Is unnecessary. The Republican orators ol Indiana who took part in the canvass In Ohio made the congressional reconstruction policy the center figure in their speeches. Such was the case with Morton, and Bakkr, and Colfax, and Kimball. AU occupied the common ground that If the Republicans of that State refused to sustain the proposed constitutional amendment upon which they were to pass Judgment at the ballot box that, to use the language of Morton in his Columbus speech, “It will then be hissed scornfully in your faces that your Immortal principle of equal rights is only for Southern consumption, and that the radicalism of Ohio Is but a threat and sham.” After such a strong expression from Its “model statesman” does It not require considerable assurance for the Journal to say “that reconstruction searm ly ligured in the canvass”? Governor Bakkr, ia his speeches In Ohio, was not less emphatic in sustaining the congressional plan of reconstruction. In a set speech at Cincinnati, carefully and deliberately prepared, written out in advance. In fact, he tbue declared himself for the “immortal principle of equal
lights”:
Whether this seven headed and ten horned monster (prejudice) shall bear sway over the noble State who justly prides herself on being the first born of the ordinance of 1787, and the birth place of Grant and Sherman, of Rosecrans and McPherson, and the early home of gallant rhil. Sheridan,fa now the (jueetionpresented.for decision tothepeople of Ohio. It will also be recollected that little Colfax said something about making the President dance In the air, because, as he alleged, ANi>kkw Johnson had Impeded the reconstruction measures of Congress. To deny that reconstruction was not a prominent Issue In the canvass Is simply absurd, for it was the leading measure of the radical Congress upon which the people were to pass Judgment. And the verdict was rendered upon the single issue of the proposed amendment providing for negro suffrage, upon which the people voted directly, and which was overwhelmingly defeated. As the Cincinnati Gazette remarks, " no one need deny that there is a reaction against the radical policy of making black states In the South,” and, in tie language of another Republican organ, the queation was not so much whether we should permit colored men to vote In Ohio, as whether the Southern States should be made St. Domingos. Instead, then, of reconstruction scarcely figuring In the canvass, It was the leading Issue, overshadowing all others, for all other questions were subsidiary to it. . Kesponalblltty for Whisky frauds. The Journal U making the fruitless attempt to shift tho responsibility of the rascalities which have been practiced under the revenue laws from the Republican to the Democratic party. What are the facts? The revenue laws were passed by a Republican Congress. Tho execution of those laws depend mainly upon the Secretary of the Treasury. He was an appointee of Mr. LlOCOi.N, and never had any affinity with the Democratic party. Mr. Johnson owes his position entirely to the Republican party, and It ia well known the Democracy did all in their power to defeat him. Kvery member of tho Cabinet co-operated with tho Republican party in tho election ol Mr. Lincoln and fastening the present odious rule upon the country. It can not be said that the Democi atic party Is responsible in the remotest degree for the present administration of the Government, or fora lack of harmony between the administrative and legislative departments. That division grew out ol the Inherent disorganizing elements In the Republican ranks, and the demoralization will continue until the party Is precipitated Into Its original fragments. The work of disintegration is progressing rapidly, and It is a blessing to the country that such U the case. If either the legislative or executive branches of the Government were controlled by the Democracy, then the Democratic party might be held responsible for either the legislation of Congress or failures in the administration of the Government, but with Congress two-thirds and over radical and not s representative In the executive branch, It is absurd to hold a powerless party responsible for the short comings, corruption, extravagance and rascality which characterize the conduct of public affairs. As Thax>. Stkvkns charges, the Republican party la a cowardly and mercenary party, and hence should be hurled from power. And the best evidence of ite cowardice Is the mean attempt to sneak out of the responsibility of Ite own acte. No wonder that Thad. stkvens, who thoroughly understands the whole concern, could not refrain from expressing bis disgust and loathing of the cowardly and corrupt crew who have control of the Government, and who care about naught else but enriching themeelvee and their friends by shameless raids upon the public treasury.
Nlaoty Tkauaaatf Repaklleaaa »i»a«la« Naked—The lasaaartal Principal ** ftepadlated.” Senator Morton, in his great speech at Columbus, Ohio, urged the Republican* of that State to adopt the conetltutlonal amendment giving negroes the right to vote and bold office, In the following forcible language: “ If you shall refute, you will then stand naked before your enemies. It will then be hissed scornfully in your faces, that your' Immortal principle of equal rlghta' la only for Southern consumption, and that the radicalism of Ohio is but a cheat aad a ■ham.” Well, what was the result of the " great speech” of the Senator. Ninety thousand Republicans of Ohio preferred to “ stand naked ” rather than vote for negro suffrage. The striking figure of the Senator did not even alarm and frighten them Into a support of the amendment, and as to the hissing, we rather infer the men who tried to cram Sambo down the throats of white men, will be the recipients of It. But Ihen the *• Immortal principles” also went down wi ll a crash ! Again the striking figure of tho senator wae not equal to the emergency. That “ great speech ” wen “love’s labor lost.” Yes, the grant love of the Senator for the negro dictated his words, and be is entitled to much sympathy for hie loss. If he had only made a few more such “great speeches,” Thurman would have been elected by thousands. We we sorry hlv besltb did not permit him to do eo. By next year, we hope he will be able to thoroughly canvass Ohio for the Democracy. But then there Is no telling where the “ logic of events” will land him by that time. —s^flR^^-^aBas ET Before the election the following prediction wae made by the Journal: “The Democratic raid on public credit Increases the pries of gold, notwithstanding the decrease of the currency, aad Juet la propertlon to the success of thst party in the eoesing elections will the price advance.” The elections have passed, tho Democrats were successful, bnt the pries of gold won'l advance.

The Rimer. —A radical paper triumphantly announces that “ton thousand negroes In Virginia hava learned to ryad daring the pest year.” Quite likely, but kow much blood aad treasure has It eoet the country to loam these ten thousand negroes to epell his way through a congressional tract! —In Tyburn, Pennsylvania, a negro named Brown sold a load of corn belonging to another negro named Hogan, and then murdered him for demanding the proceeds. —During the last fiscal yesr, the Federal Government has expended forty-eight million* of dollsrs more ts the self appointed guardian of the negroes than for the preservation of the public credit. —In Mobile, a negro barber, named Lankford, got appointed on the police. His first exploit was to arrest a white woman, agalnat whom be had an old grudge, and drag her through the streets. The arrest was unjustifiable, and the manner ol it brutal and barbarious. —Hunntcut, white nigger, made a speech to the black negroes in Charles City county, Virginia, recently, and advised them that if they could not handle muskets they could set fire to the d welling* of their enemies. —The authorities of New Orleans recently established as many new schools as seemed to be required for the education of the black children. The negroes, however, refuse to send their children to these schools, and insist on them being admitted to tho white. —In Alabama the white negroes made the credulous blacks believe they would be fined fifiO unless they voted tho radical ticket. —Esstera radicals ate clamorous lor the right of negroes to seats In first class railroad cars, and first class berths in steamboat cabins. —Mr. John McDonald, an old citizen of Columbus, Georgia, was waylaid, shot, killed and robbed by a negro on the 29tb. —The sheriff of Dallas county, Alabama, is under military arrest for thrashing an Impudent negro. —In Mobile, on the 21st, a negro policeman attempted to arrest a drunken negress, w£.o was raising a disturbance on Rooal street. lie broke bis mace over the wench’s head.

A'wlltlekl Item*. —The Chicago Tribune has declared In favor of General Grant as tho Republican candidate for President. —It Is now proposed to add a new plank to the Republican platform, namely, the purchase of Mrs. Lincoln’s wardrobe. —By the elections this fall the Democrats gain three United States Senators In the next Congress—In California, Ohio and Connecti-
cut.
—The chief justice has now two very uncomfortable customers on his hands—Jeff. Davis and Ohio.—JVorwicA Advertiser. —Tne Democrats gained one thousand votes in Thad. Stbvxns’ district at the election on the 8th instant. This only proves that he Is becoming as odious at home as he Is everywhere else. —" Impeachment,” said Secretary Welles yesterday, “ Impeachment Is an Impossibility, sir, an Impossibility. Why, look at Ohio? Mr. Wadk and Mr. Ashley Hvo there!”— Washington Letter. —The Indtanopolls correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial says: The nomination of General Grant for the presidency by Speaker Colfax U understood here to be equivalent to an avowal try the latter of his oandidacy for the Governorship. —The New T'ork Tribune says tho New York JTerald thinks General Sheridan has “added nothing to bis glory” In his recent tour through the North—a strong indication that he Is not stumping for the HeraUTs ticket. General Grant is the New York Herald's candidate for the Presidency. —The New York Times says Speaker Colfax proclaims, in the boldest manner, that “Congress will meet at the appointed lime, whoever and whatever may oppose.” Who doubts It? Who supposes that anybody, or anything, Is likely to oppose? Nobody talks or thinks of resisting the law, or dispersing Congress, and nobody doubts, so far as we know, that, If the sky falls, Speaker Colfax can catch a great many larks. Radical Programme.—An exchange says: It Is a fact, which the people should not forget or overlook, that the radical party refuse to allow the Union to be restored. They deny civil governments to ten States, and shut the doors of both houses of Congress upon their representatives. White men are forbidden to approach the ballot box, while negroes are driven like cattle to the polls, and their suffrages are to fix the status of white men not only in the South, but also In the North. This Is the programme of the radical party, and against that the people of the North have just spoken In tones of decided reprobation. -In a speech delivered to the workingmen In this city, Mr. Alexander McDonald, president of a miner’s union in England, stated that, on the occasion of n “ look-out ” in a Yorkshire mining district, the employers tried the experiment of black labor in the hope of bringing the white miners to a reductlAfi Af ” TKa AvnArimAnf. fatlArl. In
announcing himself for GRiXt, It le probable that hie political aspirations will assume the
shape suggested by the Republican.
General Sherman’a opinion of the Revolutionists.—Say* the Washington cor-
respondent of the Boston Poet:
While those whs profess to act “outside of the Constitution” are digesting i’resident Johnson’s declaration that be will resist any attempt to suspend or degrade him before trial end conviction, I will add, upon reliable authority, the declaration of General Sherman that such an attempt would be clearly revolutionary, end should be resisted by the President with all the means within his control. This declaration, made to those who bad a right to know his views, may have auggeated the propriety ofbls return here to amuae the command of the department of Washington, which Includes Maryland and Delaware. Such, also, was the substance of an opinion expressed by General Grant when approached
taking any extreme action In the premises the opinion of General Grant should be obtained, and he volunteered to procure It. When the subject was mentioned General Grant promptly responded, In substance, that any attempt to suspend the President oefore trial and conviction would be In violation of the Constitution. This reply of the commanding General arrested any further proceedings at the time. It may be well In this connection to repeat that President Johnson will bold ready obedience should the House of Representative* Impeach and the Senate convict him as required by the forms of the Constitution.

AN Honest Governor.—It seems that the illegal voting In Fort Delaware, Philadelphia, was consummated under an especial order from Governor Geary.

Laporte.—A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette writes as follows of this beauti-
ful city, and its surroundings:
Laporte is a beautiful city of ten thousand inhabitants, situated as tbe name indicates, at the door of two of the most lovely prairies In
all the West.
Before these prairies, which, In reality are but one, were converted into farms, the belt of timber which separates them had an opening of something less than two hundred yards, Just like a door, through which the old Indian
trail passed.
The early French settlers called this door in their language laporte, which beautiful and expressive term was nicely chosen as the
name of tbe city.
Tbe soil on this beautiful prairie and in tbe surrounding timber country, Is a neb, dark loam, very productive, and so gently undulating as to furnish excellent drainage, yet almost every acre le eusceptlble of cuittvatlon. Bald Hill, three miles east of the city, is the only considerable elevation in the county. This hill reaches a bight of about one hundred feet above the level of the prairie, and furnishes a fine look out point for a large area
about It.
The drainage of the east and south parts of the county is to tbe Kankakee River; in the north to Lake Michigan. But tbe chief objecta of attraction are the small lakes found in great numbers In the
county.
Northwest from the city, and distant about three miles are two little gems called Twin lakes. On the north, about tbe same dittance, ts Fish-trap lake. Immediately adjoining tbe city on tbe north is Clear lake, which le about half a mile across In a northern direction, and more than a mile in length from east to west. On tbe west of Clear lake, through a lagoon covered with a luxuriant growth of pond Illy, much straw and lake moss, a boat may paaa to Stony lake, which Is nearly circular, with a diameter of perhaps three quarters ot a mile. Tbe bluffs of this beautiful sheet of water are somewhat higher than tbe other lakca, and tho granite bowlder* found In great quantities
along Its shores gav e to it a name.
Connected also with tbe others, but lying further to the northwest Is Pine lake. This le tbe largest and most beautiful lake In the victntty. Its largest diameter la nearly tbsee
miles and its ebortest one mile.
In some parts the water Is nearly one hundred feet In depth. Indeed there la one pert of Clear lake where tbe depth exceeds ttats by a distance as yet nnksown. By many it to thought there la here a subterreanesn outlet
to Lake Michigan.
The objection to this supposition is that these lakes are elevated- above Lake Michigan nearly two hundred feet—distance only twelve
or fifteen miles. ....

We thought that as we caught the dainty tittle fellows that a thorough taste was eminently proper and eo acted accordingly. Laporte is well supplied with stores, shops, etc. Tbe style and structure of the dwellings 1* better than in most cities of the size of this
one.
The division repair shops of the Michigan Southern and Northern Indiana Railroads are located hers, ou tbe south bank of Stonv Lake. These shops give employment to not 1cm than
two hundred persons.
Rumley Brothers have extensive shops, including » foundery and machine ehops; also, extensive machinery for working In wood. Their works are employed largely In the manufacture of steam engines nnd grain sepa-
mtor.’i.
There are also in the city two large furniture factories, two paper mills, two extensive woolen mills, flouring mills, saw mills, two steam tanneries, two breweries, besides many smaller establishments. Tbe city school system includes five ward schools, with a central or high school. Tbe central sebool building, just completed, It an elegant brick structure, three stories high, very commodious, and well adapted for tbe purposes Intended. Tbe cost of the building was thirty thousand dollars. There are twelve church edifices -good, substantial brick or frame buildings, although not quite equal In appearance to the same class of buildings in other cities of tbe size of this
one.
Tbe New School I’resbyterlan Church, under the pastoral care of Rev. E. C. Noyes, to now enjoying tbe annual meeting of the Wabash synod. Sunday nnd Exctae Laws. Tbe New Y'ork Journal of Commeree makes Ike following sensible suggestions in regard toprobibitory laws: IVe yield to none in our earnest desire to promote tbe cause rf teinperunse among tbe people ol tbe United Sc tea. But we are equally sincere in tbe contlclKn tbat total abilinence, to be enforced or rstablidn d by sumptuary or prohibitory laws, is not tbe be*t method of securing general sobriety, and will reciiit in failure wb^rever tbe sclieme is tried. This was our opinion when tbe so called -Maine Law” was at first proposed, and our predictions then uttered have since bud a most graphic fulfilment. But liilie can be done for those who are victims to this fearful vice; but the establishment ol fixed tastes and habits among the young, as we have heretofore suggested, will do more, we are persuaded, for their sec.irtty than can be gained even by their voluntary pledge of sell' denial, while the attempt to legislsh, the people Into habita oi temperance will surely increase the evil. The question of Sunday rest should not be mixed up with the principle ol prohibitory legislation on the subject of alcoholic drinks. No surer way could be devised to render all Sunday laws inoperative, The venerable Dr. Spring once remarked in our hearing that he thought tbe Sabbath would be better observed If there were no legal restraints enacted for its protection. We are quite clear that more can be done by tbe friends of a quiet Sabbat i through the Influence of moral suasion alone than by all the legislative acte that could be devised. No such laws can be long or successfully enforced where there is not a strong public opinion In their favor; and the education and direction of the popular mind on this subject is s much less difficult task where It is not attempted under sanction of force, but it to urged alone by arguments addressed to tbe conscience. We know that the latter seems to the anxious reformer a slow and tedious process. When be perceives what to right he would fain make all men conform even by the strong arm of tbe law. The saddest pages of the world’s history record the well meant at. tempta ot sincere fanatics to coerce the obstinate of the race into the practice of orthodoxy In religion or morals. The motive has often been worthy of the highest honor: the attempt has alwaya been a disastrous failure. The example of public men In every degree, from the President down to the humblest official, has for several yea s had an unhappy loffuence in promoting 8abbatn desecration. President Pierce was tbe last chief magistrate who uniformly maintained a reverent observance of the day of rest, and his administration was a model in this respect. The persistent introduction of secular topics into tbe discussions of tbe pulpit has done very much to blunt the conscience of the people, and to answerable for no little of tbe present Sunday Immorality. We believe that this has really had more influence for evil than all the other causes combined. These hints show where the reform must begin. A stringent law to as useless in promoting a Sunday observauce as an iron fetter to in establishing religious orthodoxy. The people must be taught to reverence tbe day by the precept and example of those who believe in its sacred character. If all whose creed to orthodox would devote the hallowed hours to the preaching and practice of the pure gospel, the work of reformation would be well begun. A holy example will go fur tber than a State constable in securing conformity ; and we suggest this more excellent way to those gentlemen who see no hope of reform except under tbe crushing power of a legal crusade.
