Tlic Icniciiiiic Victory in IvcnttirKy. Nobly has the politcal campaign of 1SG0 opened, The first trial of strength between the friemlj ami enemies of the President's policy has rcultcd in nnovcrwhelining victory for the former. Kentucky has started the Democratic ball with great ?pirit nnd
momentum. It must be taken up and rolled over the north and north-west. Last year the State was nearly equally divided in the political contest between the Dcmoc racy and Padii als. This year the Democracy have a majority that runs high up into the tens of thousands. AYe have every reason to believe that this gratifying changu in political sentiment in our sister fetate is but its shave of the political revolution that is to sweep over the whole country. It is, therefore, an indication of coming event.- that is well calculated to inspire! general gratification and joy. This brilliant result iu Kentucky throws a refulgent light upon the dark political gloom in which wc have been for long years enveloped. It brightly breaks the Pemocratic morn! The days of bayonets, of martial law, of inilitar tvranny, are passing away, and with them lade the hopes and prospects of that party which can only thrive upon violence and arbitrary force. With free elections the Democracy will again return to power everywhere, and ouce more assert its well known and time honored assecudeney. This is a very dilfercut commencement of the fall elections from that to which the Kadicais have been for some years accustomed. Ihey can discern in it the handwriting upon the wall. Kentucky leads the van, but in her rear arc Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New .Terse' and New York, which will, ere long, open upon them in still heavier Democratic thunder. The fatal delusions which have prevailed among large classes of people are. being dispelled by the progress of events. There is gathering in the political horizon a whirlwind of popular indignation that will sweep them from the power tliey have so uuwortluly used, and from the positions they have disgraced. The sober second thought is now asserting itself and once more giving earnest of the capacity of the people for self government. The Radicals may invent what excuses they please for th's Waterloo defeat, but they will not satisfy themselves much less the community. They may say it was a vie'ory of the gray over the blue of the secessionists-over the Unionists j but opposed to this is the fact that of a majority of 40.000 in a State that ued to give 40, 000 against scccsmou and for the retention of the State in the 1'nion. W'm say hurrah ! for old Kentucky. It has been your good fortune to be first among the .States that have thrown oil' the tramfuels of Jacobinism, and .ignin to stand forth in the plenitude of your ancient dignity and renown. Cin. Fn. Colfax at Indianapolis. Hon. S. Colfax made a speech at Indianapolis last week. In the Hcruld of that place wc find the following pen-and-ink picture of the "Little Greeley The first speaker was the Hon. Schuyler Colfax, Sperker of the National House of Lcprcscntatives. The political history ol Mr. Colfax is the n.Oft remarkable exam. pic on record of doing a large and succesiui business m a small cawtai. lie oecu pies a position far above that to which his talents entitle him, and is calculated to weaken one's faith iu the generally received proposition that a man cr.n't raise himself from the ground by pulling at the straps of Iiis suspenders. Mr. Colfax is neither a great statesman, a great thinker nor a great orator, though he has succeeded in acquiring the reputation of being all three, lie is an artful, oily, polished demagogue, an artful aham, 'a bladder tremendously in Hated with wind. Mr. Colfax's speech was mainly devoted to the justification and eulogy of the Thirtyninth Congress, the abuse of the President, and unfair and partial presentation of the Constitutional amendment, interspersed with a good deal of fustian and glittering sophistry about "loyalty," ''patriotism," sanctified blood of the brave, the danger of restoration without security for good be havior on the part of rebels, clap trap in regard to the assumption of the reblcl debt, and the payment of damages for destruction of property by the federal armies. Wc do not think that Mr. Colfax is alto gcther a fool, though he lias some of the elements of a fool in excellent development. Therefore, as a man who can deliberately get upon the stand and make the assertion that ho believes the Democracy would assumo the rebel debt il empowered, must be cither a fool or take his audience to be composed mainly of fools, wc give Mr. Colfax the benefit of the doubt. Mr. Colfax wound up his declamation by a bit of clap trap lor the Fenians, worth' of its source. Colfax, a friend to Irishmen ! Is he aware that his knownothing record is on file against him in the memory of every Irishman that he is universally known and despised among Irishmen as the meanest, mostbigotcd and most intolerant knov nothing iu the State '! Among the resolutions recently adopted by a convention of disloyal editors of the Mississippi Valley, he1' at Jackson, was ii e ii ine ioiiowing : . , . 1 n i.,,7.. ? rri. rtAt,A ..: that! Ji'.ou. (-''", i nail v iti.uiji.v; i . portion ol the late 'Republican' party nowled by Stevens, Sumner, and (Ircely a direct attempt to overthrow the republican principle established by our fathers for the government of the United St.'.fes, and to build upon its ruins a consolidated empire, whose irresponsible and despotic rule will sweep away cf cry landmark of the Consti ution." This is decidedly impudent. Emanating from the very men who mado an armed attack to overthrow not only the ''principles established by our fathers," but the very Government itself, it is, to say the least, very cool and impudent. Pitlshnrtfh (!tRut none the less true, for all that. Trifles, with no direct object, are too frequently magnified into mountains of inttutiooal offense. Lei us guard against it.
Democratic 3Iass :IcoUnj;f a! 3nliana jmIIs Slcccntioii ot Senator HEcmlricks. IxM.vxAror.is, Ind., Aug. 9. The beautiful democratic stand in the Circle park was dedicated last night. Notwithstanding tlie rain during the dav, and the unpleasant evening, an immense
crowd, as imposing iu character and numbers as ever assembled in Indianapolis, welcomed our d'stinguished Senator, Hendricks, who was the orator of the evening, and dedicated the stand to free speech, which for years had been prohibited in the capital of the free State of Indiana. onfires, fire-works and music added to the evening's entertainment. The theory of Senator llcndrick's speech was that the radical majority in Conirrcss asked of the country the continuance of power in its hands, and he proposed to discuss the measures lor which it was respons'ole, and upon which it made the appeal for the further confidence andsupport of the people. Having two-thirds majority in both branches of Congress, Mr. Hendritki said, the radical were solely responsible for the valuable measures thev failed to pass, and the bad legislation which was adapted. Having complete control of the le-islitive department of the government, they could not shift rcsponsipility for the present condition of puV.ic f.Uairs, In a matcrly manner Mr. Hendricks discussed the prominent bill- which had been before Congress, including the freedmcn's bureau bill, and its operations, the civil rights bill, the internal tax. the tariff bill, the constitutional amendments, the neutrality laws and the relation of the southern states to the federal union. Only a full report can do justice to the able, frank, convincing and eloquent argument of the speaker. Ho took the broad ground ngainst the adoption of the proposed cons stitutional amendments, cr any further change of the constitution, not only beciuse the' were unnecessary, the late civil war having demonstrated that instrument was equal to the most frying emergencies, and for the further reason that 11 States had no representation in Congress, or voice the proposed change. He asserted that the first section of the amendment will confer citizenship upon the negroes and Indians, quoting legal authorities in justification, and that such wasthceonstructiou of radical Senators, repeating the declaration of Senator Nye. When the civil lights bill was passed, it did away with all quibbles upon the word ;whitc'' and the man who is clothed in the habiliments of cttzcuship will yet be declared by the highest judicial tribunal of this country entitled to cast his vote, is we never legislate another bill about it. Upon the tariff bill, he remarked that it is the most objectionable measure, the most slnmclessoutrage. the most audacious demand by the cupidity of one section upon the labor of another, ever presented to Congress as a financial scheme, and wc of the west arc a tame and spiritless people if wc are content with such legislation. Throughout, Mr. Hendricks was digniv 7 fied ami courteous, remarking: 'I have not turned aside to answer the charges of malignant persons against the great old party with which it has been my pride to act. Iti record is a part of the history of the country. It has been connected with ever movement that has added to our country's greatness and power, and I trust its good name to the candid judgment of my countrymen, and the peu of the enlightened historian." The speech of Mr. Hendricks occupied an hour and a half, and he held the vast audience spell-bound by the force and keenness of his logic and the witchery of his perjuasive eloquence. Mystkriocs Disappearance. J. N. Reynolds a prominent and wealthy black Republican lawyer and politician of this place, mysteriously disappeared during the fore part of June last. He went off with a large drove of hogs, and everybody expecting him back in a few weeks, inquiry was not excited until a few weeks ago. It now feems that prior to leaving here in June (to wit: on the 19th of April) he was married to Miss IMna Rancroft, near Ravenna, Ohio, but abandoned her a few days after marriage, came back here, disposed of his real estate, bought the drove of hogs, and decamped to parts unknown. In the meantime (after his marriage with Miss R.) he is reported to have ei tcrcd into matrimonial engagements with two or three damsels in this place they, of course, being ignorant ot bis late marriage. His deserted Young wife arrived here on Tuesday last to look after her interests in regard to the real estate disposed of by Reynolds after her marriage to him. Reynolds is a gay old Lothario of over fifty years of age, and was divorced from a second wife a year or eighteen months since. He had resided here several years, and was once a candidate on the Republican ticket for Representative. It is supposed that he left with something like s;n?()Oo in money, as, in addition to his own funds, he carried away considerable sums belonging to several fat estates of which he was administrator, and which his sureties will doubtless have the pleasure of making good. It is also believed that he had made a good deal of money by wheat gambling operations in Chicago. His present wife (late Miss Rancroft) is a pcrposscssing yoeng lady of some twenty ;;iiicrs. and ot wealthy and respectable parent.- in Ohio. clC ot acquainted with Reynolds while on a visit to her friends in thi plaec last winter. Taken all, in all, the case is one of de cidedly huge dimensions, and there is danger of "somebody getting hurt." 11! v iff i m lh timet'. What to 1'okgi.t ani What to ReM KMOi.it.

of I.cutenant Henry, whibir. in the Union party, beating him in a most unmerciful manner. Colonel Pritchard, who came to the rescue of Lieutenant Henry, was then ect up:n by the ruffians, and the two were compelled to seek refuge in the house of a neighboring tanner. Sheriff Orr, of Jig Kalh, hearing of the disturbance, r.t once repaired to the spot with a jo?e C"n't ifus, and endeavored to make arrests, when he and his nd Jus assistant.?, overpowered by the laoicals, were severely beaten and forced R to succumb If Governor Fletcher is so desirous of having harmony and peace in Missouri, why dou't he keep peace among his followers ? If these disgraceful scenes, in which the radicals seem to take such a living interest, arc repeated, it will be hardly safe in Missouri for years to come for men to visit each other. The whole object of the Maysvilie business no doubt was to intimidate the Conservatives there, and prevent their having any future meeting. The Voice ol a rSoIuscr. The following extract from a htter written by 3Iaj. Gen. Rou-seiu, in response to an invitation to address the democratic citizens of Rowling Green, Indiana, on the ! oOth of August, is replete with patriotic advice tothe citizens and soldiers of the republic. In concluding his letter the General savs : "There never was a time in our history so pregnant with evil and danger to the Pepublie as at present, and in w hich the neccs-ity was so great that men should be true and brave iu standing by their governiccnt. The armed force of the rebellion was in finitely less dangerous to the liberties of the people than are the efforts of the radical conspirators, in and out of Congress, by insidious legislation ami in the name of the Union and the Constitution, to sap the foundation of our Government and overturn it. The firm resolve on the part of these men to rule or ruin, is doubted by nobody who is cognizant of their action for the last eight mouths, and their motives prompting it. As an humble man T am against these men, because they are against the governs incut, and without regard to past differences of opinion, will join and act with those who patriotically oppose them. If the American people would save their government and preserve their liberties, they must oppose and suppress radicalism north and south, equally pernicious and equally dangerous to the people." .Toll', Davis. Charles O'Connor, Ksq., just returned from Fortress Monroe, speaks well of the health of Mr. Davis, and says he is bearing his loii confinement with patience. Mrs. Davis, who is with him, is nervous and cast down. Her children arc not with her, and the "separation," with the anxiety produced by the uncertainty of her husband's fate, wear upon her health and spirits. Mr. Davis is allowed to see his friends, who visit him unscarched and unquestioned, but he is not permitted to receive an unexamined Detter by mail. Put for his anxiety for his wife Mr. Davis would be comparatively cheerful, aud his physical strength would improve. o Pride of Woman Flossing ant! Child Heating. Since the recent flogging of a young lady of sixteen in one of the public schools in Cambridge wc have looked iu vain in the Massachusetts papers for anything resembling the howl of indignation that would have toll owed the booting of a reconstructed male African for robbing a hen roost in 31ississippi, or elsewhere, a thousand or two miles away from Roston. Rut in an out of the way corner of a Roston paper wc find a paragraph which states that "the parties concerned in the recent punishment (it is thus mildly stated,) of a young lady in Cambridge have been in-. dieted." It has been shown by the escape of Lindsley to Canada, be simply forfeiting his bail, that for 610.000 a radical clergyman in New York may brutally beat to death his own child for not saying the parrot prayers likely to be said 13' a child three years of age. The indictment of the Cambridge wo men whippers promises to mako public the price in Massaehusctts-for Hogging young ladies who make "somewhat impertinent" replies to reprimands for whispering. It is quite likely, if the case is pressed strong ly, that the "parties may bo fined as much as twenty-five, or even fifty dollars etch, and this. terrible penalty may be the means of protecting other young ladies from similar outrages in the public schools of Mas sachusetts, just as in New York, the next clergyman who is anxious to murder a babe for not saying its prayers will consider whether there is a ready friend to furnish SI 0,000 to pay for the amusement. It is well enough to mention just here that to gratify the radicals in New York, Massachusetts, and other radical States, the Government :,.s now paying about eight million dollars annually to "protect" full grown, reconstructed buck negroes from a possible booting by their "former masten." The Democracy used to run the Federal Government lor $70,000,000 a year. The Radicals have tun it up to SfC0,t00,000 or about S20 to every man, woman and child in tho United States. They have multiplied tho expenses eight-fold in live years! When they succeed in extending the Fieedmen's Rureati. so that it will include the whole negro population of the South, they will get tho expenses up to a much higher figure.

From tlie Indianapolis Ilcraid. It is a favorite "argument" of radical speakers that tlie Democracy are in favor of paying the rebel debt, paying for the emancipated slaves, and paying fur Soulhern property destroyed during the war. These radicals strangely underrate the intelligence of the people when they seek to palm suehstufTupon them. The Democracy own pioperty and pay taxes like other men. They find the taxes heavy enough, God kuows, without seeking to j increase them : and if there were no other reason, self interest alone would deter them from assuming the rebel debt or paving for emancipated slaves. If it was possible to make the New Kngland fanatics, who were largely instrumental in briinriuir on the war. pay for the slaves, then, as a mcasure of retributive justice, the Democracy mi-ht entertain the proposition. Rut un fortunately this is not practicable, and the 1' this is not pr Democracy have no desire to be taxed for that purpose themselves. So far from desiring an increase of taxation, the Democracy would be glad to get rid ol sonic of the ta::es with whi:-h the country is now saddled, say, for instance, the tax for feeding, clothing and educating negroes. The Democracy would al.-o be glad to have the wealthy bondholders of New England pay tax on their wealth, which would have the effect of materially easing the burden which now rests on the shoulders of the common pcoile. So far as we know, peoplo in general arc not in haste to assume the burdens of useless taxation. Men do not like to pay taxes when they can avoid it, and Democrats are not different, in this r -pect, from other men. When a blatherskite gets up and rants about the danger of an assumption of the rebel debt, in ease the Democracy get in power, he is either a fool or else thinks his audience is largely composed of fools.

JMonemau is perverted and garbled. This able nnd accomplished officer did say to the committee that there was not as much 1 yalty in Memphis at present as there was twelve mouths ago; but he said more. He told the committee that this change was occasioned by the course of the radical Legislature of Tennessee; but this part of his testimony is carefully and dishonestly omitted. Mr. John Oldridge, another witness before the committee, in his letter phi . . published in the ArohturJw on Saturday last, exposes another fraud. WashburLc in his report represents Oldridge assaying that a certain prominent citizen was drunk; and Oldridge. over his signature, exposes tlie fraud, and brands the brow of Wash burue with falsehood, for he says 'he made no such statement before the committee,' as has been attributed to him in the report.

She can be seen hobbling along on crutches at almost every hour of the night, plying her vocation. Rase and degraded is the man who would use the evidence of such a creature to accomplish part- pur poses, and the cause that resorts to such baseness is indeed hard run for material. Judge Hunter was another important wit ncss, and since 'fade has run away we suggest that the fugglerneu of the criminal Court limit up Frances Thompson and pour out his heart-strieken soul into her sympathizing bosom.

Which the Knife on Foau? Kxtract from an unpublished work uu Manners, by a Professor Osgood : Very often in both French and Knglish literature of the higher sort, you meet with a vast deal ot affected horror nt the idea of eating with the knife instead of tho fork. A Frenchman landed n a first visit to the United States, was so shocked at seeing a Western man conveying his food to his mouth with Irs knife, at the Astor House dinner-table in New York, that ho rushed from the. house and re-embarked for "dear France" without delaj ! Wc say much of this horror mu-t be affected, tor the reason that we have known hun dreds as worth)' and wvl'-brod gentlemm as arc to be found in Louden or Paris, who i have boon nin' their knives in that "bur. I o mo way all thcir Hvc without iu!l:ctin a .iglc scratch. Resides, is there not quito !a;9 much danger in using the fork a- tlie j knife t Is there not as "much danger of sticking the fork iu the tongue, on the 'gums, or the lips, as of cutting the Kime With the knife t The Miss Naneyi-h horror of using the knife at the table is about on a par with the marvelous squeamishnessof that hue old Virginia gentleman who forced his daughter to discard her plighted lover, after giving his own consent, too, because at breakfast one morning, the poor fellow inadvertenthy cut his muffin ;pen with a knife instead of tearing it in two with his fingers, as prescribed in the aristocratic old gentleman's "code of good behavior." Unquestionabby the fork is as dangerous as the knife, in the hands of a careless feeder, particularly if the fork be a steelpronged fork, instead of silver, which istoo often the case in our hardy Western world. Apveutise ! Am kktise ! ! I f you want business, advertise. If you arc a hatter, make your name so familiar with the public, that when a man looks at his old hat, and says to himclf, --I must have a new hat," he will think of von. If youare a tailor, make yoursell so conspicuous that a man will think of you every time he brushes his coat. When a man looks at his boots this dusty weather, and says to himself, "I must go and Inn' a pair of patent leathers." have our name t-o familiar to him, that he will think of your business just as soon as he does id' his boarding house when he is hungry. It is the same with everything and everybody who advertises extensively. Their names become familiar with their goods aud merchandise, and all who waut what they tell are drawn as if b' instinct, to thcir shops and stores. There is nothing like advertising. If von do not believe it, try it and be convinced. PnovEitns iiv Josn Riei.inus. It iz uncommon hard to annihilate a man with words altho it is undertook.
