lion. ico. II. Pen die! 011 His Speech at Columbus. The following ere tlie closing remarks of Hon. Geo. II. Pendleton, at the recent Ohio Detnocrtic State Convention: "The first desire of every J'ittriot now is the pacification cf the country, the return to the ways and duties and prosperities of peace; and this can most speedily and only he accomplished by securing to the people of tlie South self-goYcrnwent hi their appropriate influences iu the Government of of the Union. The Constitution will do this. It need only he observed. Its provisions are all-sufficient. It needs no amendment. Wise men made it; good men administered it for seventy years; peace and prosperity attended it. It ivill bring again union and freedom and prosperity. It secures the rights of the States at home. It secures the just rights of the Federal Government. It secures the lib' crtv of the citizen. . If the President will fairly administer it if he will make an honest cflort to npply its provisions; if he will remember that the powers of the Federal Gorcrnmtnt arc all delegated, and that the rest arc all reserved; that trial by jury, free speech, free press, arc tobe held inviolate; that military commissions, for the trial of citizens,, are a'usolvUcly prohib itcd, I, for one. believe it to be my highest duty to give him anvann support. If he will not go so farfl will support him where he is right, and as earnestly condemn him where hois vrronir. The party

which has not been 'diverted in the midst of the terrors of the past four years from its steady support ot the rights of the States ami the rights of the people, cannot be seduced by hopes of power, nor driven by fear of consequences to abandon that position now. It demands nothing which is not prescribed in the Constitution; it will be unselfish and earnest in its support; it will be determined and active in its opposition; it rises above party amis; it banishes party aspiration; it will be true to him, whoever lie may be, who will be true to the Constitution and the countr' The questions now ir. controversy touch the very organization ot the Federal Gov eminent. They revive the old theories of confederation and consolidation. I hey arc hidden under ypuriousaud deceptive names. Reconstruction, as our opponents use the word, means not restoration of the Union, but rcconctruetion of the Constitu tion; change in the framework of the (lov eminent, and every change proposed is in diminution of the States, and arirrandizcmcnt of the Federal Government. Delay in reconstruction means that mi. itary Gov enimcnts are to bo used to 1: licet them. The tendency of w;:r is to consolidation We must resist it. It will load lo despot ism. Local self-government, the rights of the States, confederation these are the only hope of liberty. Our fathers saw this, and they formed a confederation. In few and simple words, they established the 1 test of all ri ucst ions. "All powers not delegated arc reserved. Let us bring all to this test. Let us solve them by it, and as far as human wisdom can effect it. we escape all danger. Shall we change that test now : Shall wc destroy the States.' eMail wc impair their powers: re we wiser, more patriotic, more honest than our fathers i o. Let us rr.tfurr the us a blessing; let us vC? that WC uo not make it a curse." The speech was warmly received, and elicited throughout marked attention and great applause. Youi Ikctclmm. From the N. Y, World. IIIS INTEKVIF.W WITH IMS FAT II KU. Mr. Morris Kctchum, who denies that he knew anything whatever of the whereabouts of his son until the discovery made by the detectives, visited headquarters on Friday evening and had an interview of two hou.s' duration with the young man. This interview was, as described bv the o nicer present, perfectly heart-rending. The father and son both wept bitterly, the latter acknowledging his guilt and the former clasping his erring boy to his breast, exclaiming: "My son I my son ! you have ruined me, but I forgive you. Vouii" Kctchum was too deeply afTec ted to make any rtiply to this expression of his lather's love, but he bowed his head and, covering his face with his hands, and wept like a child. lie was also visited by his wife, but the particulars of the interview have not been disclosed, it is said, however, that an un reserved reconciliation took place, and that when the wih and husband separated she kissed hi pi repeatedly. No man with the bolt of a jail between hi 111 and the outer world ever deported himself with more propriety than that ex hibited by Kctchum iu his conliueuicut With his immediate custodians he is willing to converse at all times, lie is said to le a charming conversationalist, thorou"hly educated, and inordinately fond of reading, lesterdiy he re id two Sunday papers, and was observed not to "skip" those portions relating to himself. In the afternoon u number ot reporters sent a request to have an interview with him. To the ofliccr who bore the inessag lie aid, "Tell the gentlemen I would cheerfully see them, but my counsel has 'idvised me not to grant them an interview. This young man, who has achieve 1 one of the most notorious reputations in the history of crime, is -" years of age, five feet six inches in night, and weighs oi;e hundred and sixtj-livc pounds. lie has dark brown hair, fiazle eyes, a full, round face, a short, thick neck, a rug nose of remarkable rotundity, and I oks like a man capable of undergoing great fatigue. Although of a nervous, restless temperament, his coolness and composed deportment indicate the possession of great nerve and fortitude, which will enable him to passfwith an unusual amount of calmness and" freedom from groat excitement through the severe ordeal he has entered.

This "black vomit" is a good thing for Virginia, of course and is precisely as the loyalists of that State "would have it." The staletucnt imtdie.s a confession that a population of free blacks is a nuisance. The exodus of the negro population from Virginia may be a very proper subject ot selt-gratulation ! with those interested iu tlie future of the old Dominion: but what is their rain in this movement is a frightful damage to the interests of white labor in the North. It would be a good enterprise if the Constitution could be so amended as to purchase Xew England, and set it apart for "freedmcn," Abolitionists, Spiritualists, infidels and free lovers. fFt. Wayne Times & Sentinel. Tin: IiET.ioioL's Press The X'cw Albany Ld'-r says: "It is deeply to be lamented that the religious press should again become the partisans of mischief and tad feeling, and the instruments of; keeping up the alienation which has for so many years existed between the two sections of the Union. It may be that the religious press of the South is as guilty as that of the North. If so, we hope the people ofthat portion of the country will repudiate its teachings. The ministers of religion and the newspaper organs of the various denominations could do much to bring ubuit a r.oneiiiaim of the two sections. IJwt if they choose to pursue a different policy the guilt will be upon their own heads, though the consequences will be felt and suffered by others. While- it would unquestionably be desirable that religious should follow or accompany political reconstruction, the more fact tint such reconstruction of the churches cannot now be accomplished is no reason why the entire people of the South should be accused of acting in bad faith in their professed desire to acquiesce in the new order of things, and no reason why the work of political reconstruction should not be accomplished as speedily as possible." A correspondent writing from Tennessee to an abolition cotemporary says, dolefully: "In the counties north of this, as well as in the counties cat and south, many complaints are made of the treatment of the colored pcopl?. These charges arc not made against disloyalists, but 011 the contrary. i-n.-t those who have served in our army.

They are consorting in many cases, with those who have been in rebellion, to do this. They make common cause with one of them, when a negro is to be the victim. A common cry amung the rank and file of our Tennessee regiments when the' return home is, 'Wc hive whipped out the rebels: 11 w, we arc going to whip the abolitionists.'" Xobody better than our soldiers know who arc the enemies oi the nation. They instinctively understand that an abolitionist is next to a rebel in noxiousness. They fougnt to put down the treason of secession, and now they are ready every where to put down, cither with bayone.s or ballot, the treason of abcli'ioni.-m.

Taxation on Xone. The Democracy of Mercer County, Ohio, have adopted a resolution demanding that tlie bonds of the bondholder be taxed to defray Government expenses as well as other property. This is right. Let us have equal taxation or no taxation. Let all the property of the nation be taxo.. to pay the debt, or let i.onc of it be taxed ! We want no privileged orders in this country, such as we have at present If property in bonds can be exempted from taxation, let us exempt the agriculturist and the mechanic! 'The bondholders have prated of their patriotism ! Are t'icy unwilling to bear their proper share of the burdens of the Government? Poos their patriotism consist in shirking taxation from them selves upon the shoulders of other people, who are so well able to bear it t 1 he man who has S10,0')0 in Seven-thirty- Donds should be made to pay just as much taxes as the owner of a ten thousand dollar farm. Circleville (O.) Democrat. A confirmed bachelor uses the follow 'ng argument against matrimony: Calico is a great prompter of laziness. If young men wish to accomplish anything of moment, oither head or hand, they must keep clear of tho institution entirely. A pair of sweet lips, a pink waist, swell ing cheat, a pressure of two delicate hands will do as much to unhingo a man as tlfrcc fevers, the mcnsels, a large sized whooping cough, a pair of lock-jaws, sev eral hydrophobias, aud the doctor's bill,

The Profil r Uanluiig. One feature of the recent frauds and

defalcations iu New York is worthy of no ticc. V hen it was ascertained that denhastened to assure the public that this amount was more than covered by the surplus profits on hand When Kctchum by his forgeries drew 8o50,000 from the Importers and' Traders' Hank, and 6-T)"),000 from the Fourth Xational, the Cashiers of these institutions hastened to assure the public that these sum?; fell short of the surplus earnings of the respective Banks on hand ! All these institutions, wc believe, have paid large dividends. They all have sus ponded specie payment without the authority of law. Yet they all demand excup tion from taxation ! And a partizan press denounces, with extreme bitterness, all who advocate a t-ystcm of cjual taxation that shall include in its operation tho.se aggregated capitals, as well as the property of private citizens. Albany Argus. The Democratic State Convention, of Ol iio. which assembled in Columbus on Tuesday, nominated unanimously Gei, Geo. W. 3 1 organ as their candidate for (Jovcrnor. The nomination is the best that could have been made th very one that, if left to our determination, we should ourselves have made. If the vice roj-alty of Ohio can be abolished, and the State restored to her tld orbit in the Union, with her recovered dignity and rights, the desideratum can surety be accomplished under such an earnest and able Democratic champion as George V. Morgan, It was our intention to have been a self-constituted delegate from the Gibralter of Indiana Democracy in the Ohio Convention but finally concluded to postpone our visit until Gen. Morgan's inauguration in January next. Fort Wayne Times & Sentinel. Ivsop, who has a sable illustrative of every phase of.life, has left us one appropriate to the effort now on foot to erect every negro into a voter, and to make him the white man's equal. Jsop says: 'A certain man having bought a Dlack moor, was so simple as to think that the color ot his skin was only dirt and filth, which he had contracted for want of due care under his former master. This fault he imagined might easily be removed. So he ordered the poor black tobe put into a tub, and was at considerable charge in providing asl.e, soap, and scrubbing-brushes for the operation. To" work they went, rubbing and scouring his skin all over, but to no manner of purpose, for when they had repeated their washing several times, and were grown quite weary, all they got by it was that the wretched Dlackmoor caught cold and died." The religious presses in Doston and elsewhere, arc agitating the Catholic question in no very mild terms almost up to revolutionary heat. Wc learn from a Pittsburgh papr, that at a late meeting iu that town the gentlemen who addressed the assembly, confined their attention principally to Catholics, and defied their disgusted hearers, having claims to decency, to find a parallel in the whole range ot billingsgate literature.

Luckily the Injuries received were not serious on cither side, but the excitement produced by the melee was great. The troops appeared to consider the case as a quarrel of caste, and felt in clincd to take it up. A nu.nber of them collected around the Mayor's ollice, and would probably have mobbed it had not Capt. Cutler, the Provost Marshal of the post, and some other olliocrs came to the rescue and dispersed the crowd.
