Of that secretary I say nothing. He has been not inattentive, and aspires to the secretaryship of state. I acknowledge past civility and revere future greatness even the preatuess of a bureau clerk. Neither is it for me to speak the glories cd a full debate, for no pen could give that delicious medley wherewith sweetly alternate the shrill twang of prowling puritanical parsons, and that deep gobble which trausrurt.s the ravished fancy to Afric's golden sands. Montgomery, AJa. (Xov. IS.) D!?natcb to the New York llci.iid. The convention to-day again took up the sullrage question, and several speeches were made for and against disfranchisement. The present situation upon this question is very complicated. The more extreme men have, it is said, been summoned by Gun.. Swayne and instructed to be more moderate in their action. Gous. Pope and Sw4iyne are said to be hourly receiving telegrams from Washington to restraiu the convention from passing extreme measures. - So iar, however it is doubtful whether these warnings will achieve that object. iSome of the delegate may be converted to a more temperate eours ; but llingham and G riffln, -who control ne neirro voteft are am-arantlv detern. ine! to carry tin? majority report. l 4 these men re 1 use to back iown, saying 'hat unless there is a disfranchising cluu; 1 1 ri f'k 1 1 .11 in flirt t i 4 Z.. . 4 , 4 . . . .

They therefore voted to send it to a coiuaiittcc, where it will be smashed. The Montgomery correspondent of the N. Y.

ITJie Duties or I3ic Hour The ! Gr vat aiiualsii or iG9. ! A great and glorious victory has been ; achieved by the friends of the country, of ; t,!0 union and the constitution, of equal Jls and economy, and honesty in ad win;istrauon, over the destructive ana revolutionary doctrines, the corrupt practices, and aj"l,jt! - ?t and oppressive legislation of radicalism. The triumph of right and justice is unexpectedly sweeping and overwhelming, aüd the people luv a right to rejoice and feel glad, aud to give fervent thanks for the great deliverance which it promises. Put the work u not )ct complete, end the fruits of the great victury are still to be gathered. Many citadels of power remain in the hands of the enemy, and a powerful party, unscrupulous in character, desperate in its extremity, and rich in corrupt resources, still controls the legislation of the country and the immense patronage of tho government. The work is therefore not yet complete. Other battles are to be loughr, more victories tobe won, before the full fruition of our hopes. The hour of victory is often tho hour of greatest danger, in that it is too often apt to beget carelessness over confidence, and a relaxation of the vigilance necessary to turu it to full account. The duty of the hour, then, in view of the situation, and of the momentous importance and far-reaching consequences of the great campaign of 1808, is plain and unmistakable, and to it let every friend of his country, every enemy of radicalism, earnestly devote himself for tho next twelve mouths. First, there should bo thorough, all-pervading organization. . It should reach not only every town, but every neighborhood. The long winter evenings, as a coteniporary justly observes, is favorble to the prosecution of this work, when the old and young meet together for conversation and discussion, and when it will be easy to organio the political elements into clubs, to promote, by united action, tho great causo of good government, of equal taxation and a restoration of the Uniou of the fathers, with the rights and dignity of all the states unimpaired. This dono thoroughly and efficiently, and the means thus secured of imparting to the members of these local clubs a thorough comprehension of the issues involved in the next presidential campaign, and of preparing them for the great duties that at this time devolve upon every citizen alivs to the welfare of the country, tho next thing obviously is to provide for the diffusion of correct information among the masses, by extendiug everywhere the circulation of democratic newspapers. This is of the first importance), and for no reason must be neglected. The poison of radical misrepresentation and falsehood is diffused everywhere, and utiles the antidcto of democratic truth shall be literally provided and eent forth everywhere, tho consequences are certain, as they will be most deplorable. As better and more forcible than anything we can say, tho following from the pen of the veteran editor of tho Xewaik Alat(u!c is eomuieuded to the attention of all who fsel.an iuteresc in tho good cause of political reform : The results of the recent elections in the north render it certain that the great political campaign of 18C3 will never have been surpassed in earnestness and activity Miice the memorable contest in which the elder Adaina was condemned to rot iremeut, and Thomas Jefferson placed in the presidential chair. Poth parties will fight as for the.r lives, and when the campaign has become W4arm and excited, all attempts to luake converts to the democratic party wir be in vain. It is of immense- importance, therefore, that democrats, without a moment's intcrmission.go quietly on with the wurk they have dono so wisely aud so well tho past year. Above all, let them see to it now, that the number of democratic newspapers taken in their neighborhoods is largely increased. Circulating printed speeches and newspapers a few weeks before an election may eerve to arouse those who are already with us, but they arc too late to change the previously fixed opinions of men who have becnoppesed to us. The way to make converts is, this fall and winter, to get a newspaper of the rivjht stamp into the hands of tho men whom you wish either to bring over or to protect from being misled by the enemy. Have them read in weekly installments what is said in behalf of the democratic party, and against tho course of their opponents, lnthis way they willbo nblo, in calmness and in secrecy, to decide whether it will not be Fafer and wiser to restore to the power of the federal government that party under whose guidanco and control it grew to a degree of prosperity and greatness never reached in as brief a period by any other nation on the globe. We earnestly asdc our friends to ponder these suggestions carefully and promptly. If their owu good tense tells them they are right, they should not allow any time to be lost in carrying them into effect in tho most eSeicut manner within their power. A few words now specially to the democrats of Franklin county. For thirty years we luv occupied our present position, and endeavored to meet its responsibilities firmly and discharge its duties honestly and faithfully. If we have .suffered persecution and been hunted to prison because wo would not temporize nnd deny the faith that was within us, and been compelled to cat the bread of carefulness aad work beyond our strength, that wo might disappoint and defeat the designs of the enemy who sought our destruction, we have not complained. Wc have bceu ready in tho darkest hour of danger as in tho brightest days of prosperity, to share tho fortunes of our political brethren. Wo are with thorn btil), ready to stand side by side with the bravest and stoutest-hoarted in the great contest of IStiS, lor tho redemption of our country from tho blighting, withering domination of abolition radicalism, aud its restoration to the unity, prosperity and happiness which it enjoyed for eighty years vndcr tho influenco of Democratic principles in the administration of tho government.

My first insight was at Savannah. On the day the polls were opened there was a great influx of colored men from the up-river parishes. Conspicuous among them was a delegation of P-'O from the Ogcchee river. These marched in military arary to the square in front of the Toting place. Every man had a sugar cane stalk, a little bundle containing a blautet or comfortable, and a bag or army haversack, with rations for three days, of sweet potatoes and other food. 1 mingled freely with them, and found that they had been promised by one Pradley (once a colored attorney of Boston) that if they woull corao down and vote his ticket they should have a mule and 40 acres of land. Some of them had been in the Union army, but nearly all were old plantation hands. The foremost of the party carried an American flag on his corn-stalk, and it was anion dizn. The poor fellows knew no better. They came to get the perquisites promised them by Bradley. They voted. The next day anJ the third they wajted for the mule and land. Of course they waited in vain; aud they went to their homes sad and despoudeut. believing that they had been deceived by the great north, fur they looked upon Bradley as itsairentand representa
tive. The white and colored republicans of Savannah did not vote, with a very few exceptions. Un questioning one of the latter mass why he neglected it, he said : "I cannot do it, sir. I cannot assist in ke epmg men of my color deluded bv such low-lived scoundrels. We ought to live peaceably with our old masters. The prosperity of tho state depends upon there being a good feeling between all classes." 1 safd: "Then, if that is your feeling, why don't you vote what they cab here the 'white man 3 ticket ? ' "Oh, cause I am for the republican party, which saved us and gavo u freedom ; but I am sorry every day that it permits such men to represent it," and his idea is true. The great body of loyal whites aud intelligent blacks Stood aloof from the polls. They grieved to do it they lamented the act of discretion on the part of the national republican committee which threw the control cf the canvass into the hands of such adventures as this man Bradley, but they could not help it. The men who voted feel aggrieved and angry because his redieulous promises were not kept. The rebel sympathizers have already taken advantage of this feeling, and begun to op-, eratc upon the voters. Unless he, and such as he, shall be discountenanced, the efieet will be to throw the vote of tln3 ignorant mass, into the hands of our politilal enemies in the future. Xo ono who is absent can have any idea of how strong the tide is that way setting already. As an ardent republican, who shared some humble part in the war for freedom and national unity, I have borne testimony only to what I havo seen. Xrf sil or JcfTernon Daria. There are people yet who think that something is to be gained or tome principle established by the trial of Jefferson Davis, and day by day the approaching trial is announced. What is to be accomplished by it? Is. it to convict him of treason? Who believes that- ac Virginia jury, legally drawn, can be had to do tliat? And if he were convicted, what then ? Why should ha bo punished whon Lec ani all tlie rest were discharged without conditions? Is this Government going to revive . the Jewish scape-goat institution, and pile all the sins of the rebellion on one man in order to cancel them all in a lump by a fino ? Or is this trial to be had in order to decide whether secession is right? Think of this government, after calling out a million of men to put down the rebellion; submitting its right to do so to jury of twelve men in a rebel state. And what if the jury should acquit him? Then it will have been decided at law that .secession is right, and that the government committed a crime by resisting it ; and as an illegal order is no defense to the agent, all our soldiers who carried on tho war will have been found guilty of murder. What a splendid consummation this would be for our imbecile ofiiciousness in demanding a trial of Jefferson Davis. A jury trial is n t fit for the head of a great belligerent power that carried on a terrible war for four years. Tho right cf the nation to subdue a rebellion is not a thing to be submitted to any jury. It. is not fit to execute a penalty on any one mn out of a bjlligerent power that put half a milli jn ot armed men in tho field, and after we havo discharged all the rest. Jefferson Davis ia a fit subject for Johnson's pardon. This ignominy may serve in the place of penalty. We know of nothing more humiliating that wo can do him than to have him owe hin discharge to JohnKon'a pardon. Let him have this, and let us stop the farce of a trial which is announced as close at hand. CVn. das.
The Effects of Misoovernmext. There are many in the republican ranks who are thoughtfully considering the eonsequences of radical rule upon the country. The entertainment to which they have been pressed is so totally different from tho original bil of fare, they are disposed to contrast the present condition of affairs with what it was under a democratic government. Said a leading republican in our hearing, "it is time we had a change, and a return to specie currency. As it now stands, many a family that was in comfortable circmstaoccs, in tho possession of a sufliciejit income a few years ago, will be reduced to beggary if the present state of thirgs continues much longer." These undoubtedly are the sentiments which havo actuated the electors in Ohio aud PcnnKvlvania to abandon tho radical party, and to join the party of reform. It is a movement of tho people to redress) the grievances and burdens to which they arc subjected by tho wasteful extravagance and corrupt legislation of the party j in power.

The more devilish the political dogmas the more acceptable to the people of Kansas the more bloodthirsty and criminal the acts of the ruling and dominant party of the north tlie more readily they were endorsed by Kansas. Tho opposition to radicalism in that territory has been little stronger than that presented in Vermont or Massachusetts, and year after year Kansas lias piled up prodigious majorities for the diunion faction which "consecrated her to freedom" (ho called). So certain were the radical leaders in that state of their .ability to shoulder any load that might be p-accd upon the party aud carry it forward to a successful issue that at the last session of the legislature two amendments to the constitution wero adopted by an overwhelming majority, an I submitted to the people for ratification at the November election, the onc admitting the women, the other the niggers to the ballot-box. Strange as it may appear even in Kansas, a strong opposition immediately sprung up to the proposition-, and it was founl necessary to thoroughly canvass the Etate in their behalf. Several of the representative men of the party prowled about tho state arguing lustily in behalf of the nigger, reaching the political gospel of radicalism, inculcating the necessity of faith in the nigger as the onc thing needful; while a gang of unsexed females shrieked into the cars ot listening masculines tho justice of their claims to the ballot cackled in every village and school district; exhibited their unworthy natures on a hundred rostrums and platforms impressed into their service, that compound of ga, brass, idiocy and madness, George Francis Train, and telegraphed all over the country the information that Kansas Weis sure for female suffrage that in that young sovereignty the entering wedge was to be driven home, aud the polities of the American republic revolutionized. The two leading trolloj C3 and veteran female chin-waggcrs of the country, Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, champion horn-blowers of thewoman'3 rights creed, were in Leavenworth on ths 5th, visited the polls in each ward and gave the voters public lectures in favor of female suffrage, and to add iusult to injury, impressed into their service those pouiticecating, bran-brealer.s, and nrisal-whinirrg ocaiists. with much fchi rt-collar, little brains, and long hair, the debris of that ill-fated Hutchinson family which has escaped mad houses and suicide, who sang female suffrage t the unhappy vclera.

Or are they desirous of a xerdict from the "liadircr" state against the ridiculous proposition? There is something repulsive, in the very idea of clothing women with the right of suffrage which all tho gallantry natural to Americans in their intercourse and treatment of Ac sex. cannot overcome besides the wt tnen of the country, as a class, do not wish the ballot. In addition to the repudiation of female and nigsrer suffrage, however, the fall fashions have extcndeJ-to Kansas, and democratic gains are in order there, as well a everywhere else.
