We.sb.ould be pleased to hear from "E. P. R.;'frequently during ?is sojourn North:' , . ^ VV?V^;"". . LAFAYETTE, Indiana, June 15,18G8. DEAR SIR: Knowing that you would, like to learn the exact, condition,of affaire in the great North West,, from a Southern man whoso privilege it is to observe daily, the H t/iroes" of-vibe great struggle for the life or deathr?i the government of the United States of America, I ara persuaded that you will peruse (perhaps with interest) a communica tion.froiu, even as humble an individ?alas myself. My opportunities for observation/through out tb? entire .'North West bava been very advantageous, my business bringing me in contact; daily, with the masses, and thus af fording mc an' Opportunity Of "feeling the public pulse" as it were, aud preparing me to form a just and unprejudiced 'opinion of the", state aud condition of political affairs.. It bas been my privilege to attend a large number of Conventions in thia section of tho country,-both-Republican and Democratic.- I j , was present iii Chicago, when-General Grant' was selected to carry thc standard of ifi* Re publican party i? the great Presidential cam paign which is soon to be inaugurated. Great ?albusiasm prevailed among thu particular parity, nominating him ; but in the sober cquu 'euance-s ol thousands of. staunch old Demo crats, conld-be-plainlyr?een written that nn? nistakable evidence . of a determination to nake" a tremeidous effort to overthrow the Republican party, and redeem the lest charac- j ( er of this great nation. And thus it is ali' iver the North West. Meu are tired out /ith the continued persecutions of the Radi J 2 al party, and they are riot only beginning to g ce, but/they are feeling the galling yoke of Cl ppession which has weighed down upon j, he people of the late "Southern Confedera- C( y,v {so railed.) in there very m.dst ; and the n bi^h handed" .measures wb'ich are being in- jt roduced into the national l?gislature,- strik-" . :ig at the.vital interests of the:' LVynl States^". jr so culled,) will cause thousands to eared un or the-Banner of Democracy, which-bai'ure L aight have thrown the whole of their iuflu-: nceinto thc scale on the other side. at Take for instance, the introduction cf a" c( ill in Congress by Mr. Shallubargcr, of Ouio, ^ eclaring void the "Yibbie Admixture Law" t? f Obi?), so far as it relates to the election of , ?f'prcsetumxTTT m MWigress. j. ?ii - tjui'ivas- m aferred to the Committee- on Elections. - 'rora what I-can learn, in conversation with . ie "knowing ones,u Mr. Shallabarger isa . lember of the Ohio bar. He has been, j'ou now, several years in Congress, and if he has een faithful to bis trust, (which is doubtful,) nd made a proper use ol" his opportunities. * e ought to be, by this time,, pretty well. 61 ersed in the text of-the Constitution, and to ave a tolerably distincridea of the legal re ttions subsisting between the States and the 7(it'o?i. Now a bill of this kind, to the intel-1 * ci ?gent North West, is so abhorrent to their deas of the character of this relation, and so a conflict with all past legal aod judicial in erpretatious of it, (that is so far as they the . iortli West are INDIVIDUALLY concerned,) bat they are compelled to sec that the party ^ 0 which Shallabatger belongs (Radical) is. ilind to law and Costitution, through that . noral obscuration which attends those who j ire afflicted with that dreadful ?-li?eas?i " Fa lafi?ism." ^ In the. political history ->f the country, it js 1 new Hiing (to this section) for Congress to ittempt, by-bill, to repeal or overrule the ? statute laws of a State. It is a nexo thing for , [Congress to attempt, by bill or otherwise, to :cnfirru thc decisions ol' a Slate Judiciary. The function of Supervisor of State laws, or af State judicial opinions, certainly was never understood, by them, to belong to the F?d? rai Congress. So far as I have any knowl edge no attempt has been made to exercise ^ this function, in respect to any of the" loyal'.' States,-and the people now plainly seo, that, if this supervising power exist in the one case, V or in respect io ono subject, or under one : state of circumstances, it exists in all cases, j rn respect to all subjects, and under all states of circumstances. They see, if it exists, as a \ ? matter of right, it exists also as a matter of. . obligation ; and therefore, it is a duty of Con? gress to pass under its review, and confirm or annul all the laws of State Legislatures, and all the opinions of State judiciaries j and this with no rule of conduct Hat its own' discretion. You sec they have not been, accustomed to | | these outrages up here. Heretofore the prin ciples of 4: States Rights" baVe never been < ignored, and now, when the M shoe pinches" | at home,- (just where it ought to,) they can ( not only sj mpatbiz? with us down South- | but they can and will give their support to | toe ?ospjuee of the National Democratic Con vention,, whoever ft may be, (and Pendleton seems to be the sltongfiit candidate.) and thus rid the country of tho terrible tyranny of a fanatical party. You know we have often spoken of taxa tion, unjust taxation, and I cannot soou for get bow.foicibly. you, on one occasion, ?in pressed upon van tho fact that in the simple question of taxation-there rested the final de cision pf a full settlement of all our national troubles. Grant you know accepts the nomi nation of the Chicago Convention, and en dorses its platform. Now Senator Morgan's great funding bill, or at least the plan for the settlement of the National Debt which he advocates, is one of tho planks in this Chica go. Convention Platform, This bill proposes to issue bonds bearing live, four end a half, and four per cent interest, payable in twenty, thirty and forty years. Now the debt is $2. ('00,000,000 ; five per cent on that is one hundred and thirty millions, and for thirty years wonld be $2 ??00,0.00,000. Add the | principle to the interest, and you baye the I enormous stupendous sum of sixty-five hun- ! dred million dollars, which is proposed to levy on this and tbe nex't generation, at; the j legacy of the Radicalparty for trusting lb with power for.seven years. - Bet that, is not all. If paid in gold, a proposed, it would add thirty-five p?r'cenl the vast sum,making"in all one hundredth sand million-dollars. Great heavens.'! F< times as much as the debts q?.al? the Katu of Europe. This cannot ,be disputed. You -know,! old saying " figgers dont lie,"-and tho inf enlial men of this country know that 1 election of Grant is just precisely =whal have stated above. They know that it is t extra*tax which the people wbii?d'vote up themselves if they were to elec't^G'en.'Gfai And therefore thc whole influence-weall reputation, and in fact everything they ha aud are,-will be thrown into thc^scale.in I your of the Democratic party. Every eilt is being made by thc Radical party to .reta ihe reins of government. To this, end lh< resort lo every subterfuge in order to defe? the objects of'the Democrats. But if tl. South is allowed a voice in the coming ele .ion, there is no doubt in my mind but. wh Peudjcton will bo elccled. You have doubtless noticed the passage < tn act by Congress recently " to provide fi ;he inauguration ol State officers in Arkai >as, North Carolina; South Carolina, Louis ina, ; .Georgia and Alabama" tie object ( vhieb is to vest in the present Congress th wwer to detcrmine when those "States sha! ie recognized as "political entities, Yand erijo .gins which belong to members of the Pede al Union; in other words, to determin whether j hey .shall b>i in or out at the cominj lection for President. Tho majority in Con ress are dete rmined to keep the South in it wn-hands, and uso or not usfcMt inf the elec ion: as it shall deem expedient. The purpos< f thc majority is to maire sure bf so mud apital^ to establish in its favor this inequali \: This "act I regard as the most.flagrant ol ll ike.reconstruction usurpations, because il ? in the very lace of the pledge, that the tates should .be reinstated as a matter ci jurse and their Representatives be received. ; is, however, only in keeping'wi'th their past induct. 'Now to " Oust'7 a party "having so ni cb.strength, and sd infernally unscrupu >us in ils exercise, win require such an effort J only a.parly deeply indignant at palpable (justice can exert. Therefore, it is as I stated in the outset) ie coining election "eve ry one feels is to be .a coggle fbrthe very life of the government ; jd I, am. confident that, "as such, it will be* mceived by an. overwhelming majority" of ?e Democrats of the North. .Wy opinion is:' ?at although Grant will .make a good nm, . mill h*/1"?-'-*-:--s-gb--. ?in for the Radical party iv o?iejnr; for the lea o? a, military man lor President is ab orrunt not only to the Democratic party, but ) a great many Radicals. The Federal government will, on the 4th f March 1SC9, when Andrew Johnson's ;rm of office expires, have been in operation ight years., lt has been administered by vilians, who had nothing to do with military [lairs, fifty-eight years out ol' this period ; of ie remaining twenty-two years, eight were ^ider the administration of Washington; ight under the auspices of Geul. Andrew ackson, one month under Harrisah, oueyear nd? r Taylor, and four years under Pi; ree. n all these military exceptions, savo in the ?stance of Genl. Taylor, the men elected 'residents wcro civilians as well as soldiers. Vashington yon know was forty four years ld before he did any military service,except he brief campaign against the French and ad?aos in 1754 and '53. Ile was a Vir ginia planter, land surveyor and legislator be jrc he was General of the Continental Army ; ie was a member of the Continental Oqn ;rcss from Virginia in 1775-was he not ? teing .chosen on account of his high reputa ioo as a civilian as well as a military man. liter the war of the Revolution,' he was lected a member from Virginia of the Con tintion which framed" the old Constitution of he Upited States. Lie wa? the President of he Convention. Who, therefore, was sp ?roper a man to administer the Government in der the. Constitution, as its first Executive .flicer,-as the President of tho Convention vbich made it. No other distinguished Gen tral bf the Revolution was ever run for this ligh office, which shows conclusively that our ievolutionary fathers had no disposition to ilace military men in high trust,-wjth the ixccptioa of Washington who was as much if not more) civilian as he was soldier. An trew Jackson was elected United Sta.cs Sen ior from Tennessee before he had seen any nilitory service. He was afterward a Judge n That Slate, being a lawyer by profession, ind in fact he filled other high civil trust?, ?nd therefore bad civilian experience,omited ;o military capacity,-when elected. #ut nark you, like Washington, when be was ?hosen he was iu private life-had retired rom the army. Harrison was much moro a civilian than he was aoldier. Ho had been a Scverhor of a Territory, United S?ates Sena ar and a Foreign Minister ; aud in fact had filled almost every high civil position under :he Government, wbeu he was nominated for President. Taylor is the only strictly milita ry mau ever elected; whose position is nt all malagous with that of Qen. Grant, and his flection was owi.ig dimply to tho accident that the nomination of General Lewis Cass bud rent the D?mocratie party in twain in. Kew York, which gave him that Stale, and that State made him President. He was grossly incompetaut, and any one who is at all acquainted with tho history of his admin istration knows that it was a perfect failure > and if be had not died as soou as he did-in July 1850-we should then have bad'disu nion and cjvil war. And, to be truthful with yoe ?sh he had lived, for fhm disunion p J-ave been successful. Now, Grant h+ not had any experience at all jn civjl af- ? fairs,-and to ail thp thinking, edupated men, who are not blinded by fanaticism, it looks ( like sbaro madness to place a man so grossly i incompetent, in the highest civil office the 1 n ition can bestow upon any man,-and think 1 lhat he can, without the experience pf the ^ ptfst tp instruc? or govorn him, master the j abstruse science of political economy. The A Jews, aa a great body, will vote against him. J s You 'remember his infam?us banishment o? this people- This alone shows him to be in political matters, criminal); foolish,. if not wicked. . ~ . Bat enough of-this.

Rev-Henry ?..Whitehouse, D. D.: .L. ti. i). Bishop of the episcopal Church, in biannual address at Chicago, before the Episcopal Convention, spoko thus with res peet to 'marriage and dirorcj : ';Tt is not to be doubted thal, in harmony wifli'th? march of 'deeper reflection, mot sense and religious principle of our country, ^p?Turiiug depreciation o? tue marriage tie ; the iitcility wttb which divorce trota ic is ob tained,,and Ibe demoralizing statements and facts ou i he subject winch, aresuowiin fur mal discusiii'ii, current literature, tho daiij press, aiid licentious cohabitation. . I would be thankful if reasonable duabt could be sus tain' d'on this awful fact of our Vehement age It is more than an accident. It is linked with deep, unprincipled purpose; It is a mjve ment ot social-socialism and infidelity, ot' a multitude who have grown up creedlc&s and beuce godless, of a i education, which lias in structed the mind und neglected the affections, of a philosophy which glorifies the msticts and passions oi our corrupt nature and deifies -animal iinpul-c, as the vcice of God. As the marriage contract is only a civil obligation, and State law fs, in many respects, loose, in the guard? und chucka upon it, facilities are offered for separation and divorce which tempt a resort to tuis lormal dissolution in cases ol mere domestic dissarraiigcment and hardship. The moral effect ot' discipline,- from the con viction ol the all but irrevocable, force of the vow, has thus become pervadir?gly damaged. Husbaud and wife aiiko admit the practica bility of separation us a remedy, aud the causes which ultimately force tb". Ki al plunge are allowed to gather and roll on in heedless de fiance. '.The facility of separation destroys' all mutual confidence and ioHames every trifling dispute. Tfttre are solemn warnings on this fearful social decadence rn the page ol'histo ry. Greece ard Rome, for ages, shame our Christian licentiousness. Roman philosophers, poets and satirists hold up io public scorn and indignation . the wanton a.id extensive abuse of a liberty of divorce which probably did not equal oura.s "The institution of Romulus made the marriage indissoluble, and though the twelve tables gave-to the husband the freedom of di vorce, yet the republic-had existed five hun dred years when thc first instance of'divorce occurred, and the dUtinguished experimenter waa. loaded for it with public opprobrium. Au gustus endeavoured by law to put somo re straint upon the facility of divorce, but the check .was overpowered by the prevailing corruptness of tuauners. It waB tup begin njng of"tl?e end, when that great nation perished',' utterly destroyed by its own cocrup tion.' . ? " Whed the French revolution Bwept away tho usuage of ages and the sanctity of relig ion, its special war seemed against the mar riage contract, and six thousand divorces aro said to have token place in the City of Paris alone, in the' ?pace' of two years and three months. M The'Roman Catholic Church sustains the absolute indissolobjlity of the marriage tie and in the State of South Carolina, where the same scrupulous policy existed, it is. stated tuet not Qn instance occurred of a division of any kind, either by the sentence of a court cf jusiiceor by the act of legislature, from the Revolution down to the opening of the recent struggle. " Inhere be a truth beyond all question, where God's law, racial experience, thc uni form record "oT our species, every source of testimony, warning and appeal concur, it is the sacredness of the marriage bond, and the national decline which attends a tolerated, disregard or fucile rupture of its diviue con stitution. " The cannon law, though less peremptory in the esteem of thu Auglican churches than in tho Council of Trent, has fully sustained the obligations of'holy matrimony,' and will not allow any cause except incontinence as valid for contracting of another marriage. M I know not what can stay our moral de cline in this relation, the source and conser vator of all the substantial interests of lime and eternity, and rouse an influential control through our legislative, judicial and ecclesias tical authority. But I fhust at least instruct you, brethren of the clergy, to exercise vigi lance pf inquiry and devout respect for its di vine significance in every ca$e' oj raqrrjoja coming before you. If tho world degrades tho contract into a mere civil trasaction, you must never forget that in your own hands it is the office of holy matrimony, deep toned in its sacramental character, where every charge and prayer is from the conviction of a Christian' faith. Its solemn vows are God ward, and the churce pronounces over those : clasped hands, those whom God bath joined i together let no mau put asunder. ? " Exercise a discretion becoming your holy i, calling, and in every way within your power insist on its performance, as a solemn act of religion, or else decline to do it. Do not low er your parlour to a justice's office, on a sud den call from strangers, and without compe tent witnesses. Do not prostitute tho service to the mere legal union of those who esteem not enough tho solemnity to como to it14 rev erently, soberly, advisedly, and in the fear of God." We refuse our burial service to the unbaptized and the conscious suicide ; and I know not why our church has not nerve and discipline enough to require the same religi ous qualification of baptism aud confirmation as preli mi naries'for the office of holy matri , many. Our rubric prescribes definitely that persons to be married shall come into the body of the church with their friends and neighbours, or shall be ready in some proper house, and the, mother Church adds : 'It is c ,n"?-nient that the new married persons should receive the holy communion at the first op port unity after their marriage.'" 4-1-? -*>-.>-.- " Supplementary Report of Commission' er of Immigration* SUTERVT BUREAU OF IMMIGRATION, CHARLESTON, May 18,1368." To His Excellency Governor James L. Orr. Slit :-Since ray last report to your Excel lency, thirty-one jiersdns have been register ed in this office, and have found employment in this State. Thero are now twenty per sons'on the way from Germany and Scan iinavia, via Baltimore, and may arrive in a ow days. The registries of lands nowem arace 332 COO acres, in almost every District jf the y tate, for sale at reasonable rates and m favorable conditions ; and nearly fi.U?O ?cres of good lands in salubrious sections of he State have been registered to be given as t free donation to actual settlers, upon rea lonable condition of improvement. lam glad to perceive a mor9 favorable :ou8ideration of our Stute in Europe, and hu indications are, that as soon os we .can ob .ain greater and regular facilities for passage, ?ve shall certainly re?civea share of immigra :ion. Indeed, there would now be no want )f well inclined lahor for ?s. if our'people could nake the arrangement for an oatlay of the :ost of trausportatior. In Germany, there are now three irrfluen ;ial papers that advocate our cause, although [ am sorry to say we have, as yet, a multitude ?i vory bitter .opponents, la Sweden and Jen mark, our influence is uLo extending ; and, liter a while, practical results will follow. In reland, several gentlemen aro kindly distri mting our pamphlets. I have mentioned to four Excellency, on a former occasion, that I lesircd very much the establishment of direct team commuuicaiion with Europe. With easonable sacrifices this cotld be effected nth Bremen. Hamburg and Glasgow, where bip-owner< are very favorably inclined to our iroject. The rail roads from Charleston to demphis being willing to transport immigrant lassengers at one cent per mile, and their >a2Sa?e at very reduced ratea, would make his route to the West, a more favorable one han over eiih.-r New York or Baltimore. It hould be our constant nim to accomplish so fesirable an arrangement, and I trust, when Wc^^tji^e-'Wtrrnoci-jnj . Mi-Tiara crer; ort that shall be made in that direction. I ind, besides, intended to have published a ugge?tion for an industrial movement, which eems calculated not only to be of great ad 'antag? to our people, genera:ly, but would ,ff >rd facilities for the profitable employment if a considerable number of immigrant em iloyees. 1 intended to suggest and irge the estab ishment of at least one cot'ou factory in a antral and eligible positiou, in every District, or tho making up of the raw material into 'ams, the capital to bc subscribed iu lends at , low valuation aud the land-* to be sold to imigrauts. To make the profits of" these es ublishments secure, the planters to pledge a :ertain number of bales of cotton to bc yarn :d on toll. I only indicate the outline of the lian for your consideration, deeming the con used state of public affairs unpropitious for ,ttempting it at present. Ii seems that even a the eily of New York there is a percepti ve want of sufficient laborers for the farmers n the vicinity-the papers' complaining that he bettei class of- immigrants, however in argo numbers they arrive, are already, before hey leave Europe, billeted for their destina ion in the Western States, and that ouly the vorthless and indifferent remain for local en gagement. This agrees entirely with my formerly ? ex cessed opinions, although it seems that some )f our planters'have obtained-labor from >Tew York. I had made arrangcrarnts with i gentleman in Pennsylvania to furnish labor ?f any kind, and-of a superior charactor, to mob planters as could comply with his terms -which were very reasonable-and whenev er 1 have been applied toi have furnished his iddress. But I still continue to believe that Mir resuscitation must be founded upon the ?curring o' an immigration of small farmers, ivbo will be followed by reliable laborers and (killed mechanics of every desctiption, and hat the most practical method of effecting hat is1 direct steam communication with Eu opean ports, proffers of cheap lands and a nuit ?plication of our industrial pursuits. 1 have tho hon?\ to be, Yv-r E-cellency's obedient servant, ?JQ?iN A- WAGNER, Commissioner of Immigration. EXTRAORDINARY DEMOCRATIC RE ACTION t.v SOUTU CAROLINA.- The telegraph inform ;d us yesterday that the Democrats had gain id a mujority of the Districts in South Caro lina at the recent local election, having-ft e ?ured sixteen out of the tbirty-one Districts, There are aoout five white Districts in tho 3tnte-Spartanburg, Qconep, Greenville, Ao ierson add 'Chesterfield. Rut this gives only ??faint idea of the extraordinary ie action in the popular vote in the State as compared with the vote on the new Constitution. We 5nd that in Union County tbe Democratic ;ain has been nearly two tkousand, in Ker ihaw over seventeen hnndred, in Laurens Dver thirteen hundred, in Chester over one :houf and, and so on throughout the State. These local elections show the strength of the Conservatives in South Carolina, and are in iicativioi what they are capable of doing when they bring out their entire force. Beside Lbe practical benefit locally of the Conserva tives ju the South polling a fqll voto, t^e njqr il effect in the North ind West is highly imr portant ; aud wo suggest that hereafter, at :very election, tbure be a united effort; in all the Southern States to bring out every Con servative vote that can bo relied upon. We aave always believed that the white Consor yatives, with such sensible colored voters as ire not'under the thumb screws of the Radi cal cat pet-baggers, and submissive to arbi ;rary military direction, are capable of con trolling every State in the Sp^th. It would be a curious, but to Us a not unexpected event, :o find tho Southern States instrumental in sleeting a Democrat as the next President of the United States. They can do it if they try. -New York Herald, HORRIBLE-A warrant has been lodged in the Sheriff's office against David Hodge, a person of color, charged with the attempting an outrage upon his own daughter.-Clarez dou Press. ?Sf Surratt bas been discharged cn the origi nal indictment preferred against him, but held to inswer the charge of conspiracy.

Gentlemen :-Knowing no class of men j mere willing to correct error and injustice than | those who conduct the Southern Press, we, the undersigned, hope, tLrougfa the influence j which your immense circulation has on the j current events of the day. to contradict the ! gross falsehoods now circulating throughout j the Southern States and elsewhere, iu regard to tho immigration at present established at San Pedro and the new town ot Medina, in Spanish Honduras. We have left our homes, and with our fam ilies have sundered the tiet which once bound us to the land wo dove, to carve ont a new destiny in this country. In feelings we aro all Southerners, M and to the manner born." We think a few plain facts will eet at rest thc falsehoods in regard to the country wc have adopted as our home, as woll as quiet tim minds of many dear friends left beuind us. IL has been reported even ia the press that we were actually starving or suffering for the actual and common necessaries of life. This is untrue; weare all contented and know toe future will give us bright Louies sur rounded with plenty and the comforts of] life, untrammeled by strife or sectional dis sensions. Unfortunately, the immigrants here invest ed their all in cotton, and planted nothing else. -Tho worms came and ate thc cotton, aud blasting all their extravagant hopes, left them without resources. New immigrants have come with capital and prudence ; tho lands are being , cleared ; houses built; a steamer is being put on the Ulua and Chain elion Rivers ; an i this year the Valley ol Sula | will bloom with all the luxuriaut*products of the tropics, such as corn, rice, plautaius, sweet potatoes, tobacco, indigo, chocolate tree, su gar, coffee, and all the vegetables nearly that are used in thc States. Thc soil i.s rich ; tho climate salubrious and delightful ; water.tine I labor cheap ; tho Government willing to do ail it can to foster immigration ; no taxes lands given for the asking; the people ol the couirtry kind, willing and obliging, anxious to promote lue welfare of every immigrant amongst them, as well as to aid those who wish to come. Dur settlement is not got up for speculative purposes. There are none of j us who have lands for sale, because new com ers can obtain as. good for tho asking. The new town of Medina is laid out in squares, ard each person of good character is entitled to an acre lot for building purposes, and on the limits of the towu to one hundred more for farming. . The money foe the building of the inter oceanic rail road is raised in London, an-1 in a lbw months' timo the work wili probably commence. It passes through San Pedro and Medina, and the noble port of Cabello I will become the entrepot for the commerce of the world. No man need expect to succeed and do auythiug unless bo arrives here with a capital of at lest two hundred and fifty dol lars, aud who expects to work. This is no country for idle men ; wo have no use for them, but lor these who wish to recuperate I j their fallen fortunes, there is no country that offers such inducements as thia. And now, gentlemen, having trespassed on jj is, by giving publicity. to this statement, to contradict and deny the many -ialsehooris cir culated against this settlement, and tu invite the removal here of such good persons as (be ing dissatisfied ia the United States) wish to secure a quiet retreat in a most picturesque land of plenty ; but we advise none to come here unless provided with a year's support . and .determined to meet and overcome diffi culties. - . 1 Communications upon the subject of emi- 1 gration here, addressed to any of the under-. 1 signed, will be promptly answered.

Grant accepts the nomination of the Republican party, as their candidate for the Presidency of the United States. " Let us have peace." Why'not? Is thero aught to prevent it? Yes ; thc rod of the Tyrant is here to prevent it. " The sufferings of a ruined people are here to prevent it. The injustice of wicked and designing men is here to prevent U. And so we say now, as one of the Fathers of tho Republic said, when the " clanking of the chains was beard on Bunker Hill, as it is now hoard upon every Southern hill and in every Southern valley: " Gentlemen may cry peace, when there is no peace." Is that peace, which drags a citizen from bis quiet home and throws him into loath some dungeons, without giving him even the poor satisfaction of informing him ol the charges against him ? Is that peace, which girdles election polls i j with bayonets, and yet refuses protection to the voter who will not cast his ballot for the dominant parly? Is that peace, which keeps ten States under a galling subjection, forcing upon them Con veutions and Constitutions not of their choice, prostrating the energies of the people, and paralyzing every limb and sinew of trade and industry V Is this the peace that Gen. Grant would give us? is this tho peace that the man of | cruel aud relentless war would have? Is such a man and such a ppace to be endorsed by the people of the United States? We hopo not. We appeal to them to pause and reflect, before they give their voices and their votes to such a man and such a peace. And this is not the appeal of the partizan-not the appeal of the politician ; but the earnest warning of patriotism and justice. The woes of the South are not ?lone her woes. They are the woes of the whole country, and as they aro meted out to us so shall they be meted out to others. If they are endorsed by the people of the North, the peace of | j Grftut w?l| bp the peace of sorrow, of desola tion, and of ruin, for them as well as for ns ! The iron hand of the military despot is broad enough to cover the whole country, and the greed of power is never satiated, but grows wjth age and strengthens with time, until some vaster power comes to stunt its gTOWth, shear it of its strength, or Btraugle irs exis- j, tence. How much better then, to " crash it [, in the bud"-to nip it while it is young and corqparttt'vely weak, ere it'erows to that pro portion which v/ill be too formidable for the popular will to extinguish. How much bet ter, then, to arouse now to a sense of the im- I pending danger, and avertit while weean, t How much bettor, then, to consign the load- I ?rs of this growing power and their greedy eo-workers to . that oblivion which they so i justly merit. Then, indeed, would wt* have t peace-not tho peace that Gen. Grant would I give us-not the peace that the Republican I party would give ns-hut the peace which blessed our country in tho palmiest days of | its prosperity and glory; the peace which alone can bless it again with prosperity and glory.

Our remarks pertain to tuose white men of ?ur section, who have moil ed with the radicals of the North and thj freedmen of the South, to fix upon the Soulii negro supremacy, or the domination of an in ferior race. There is some excuse for tho course of the colored people, miserably mista ken as it. has been. Power was offered to them, and it was uatural for them to gras? it, although it was to turn into a viper and ul ti mutely to inflict upon the hand that seized it, a fatal sting. Bu; what shall be said of that white mau, who,.forgetful of the ties of blood, and of the claims of kindred^ and who; recreant to the God-imp!?nted sympathies of race, turns upon his own section, end hounds on the pack of wolves that seek to attack the whiles of the South even in their very homes.?

A criminal was being conducted to the placo if execution, when he escaped and took cefoge in a hospital. As admission could on ly be enforced in presence of the civil author ities, the building was surrounded until tho :orregidor (magistrate) could arrive. When that functionary came, and entrance was ob tained, and a person wearing a dressing gowu ind a nightcap was seen walking in thu yard, in algnazil thonght he recognized him aa the fugitive, and at once arrested him. The man m being- questioned did not reply, hut ges ticulated with great animation; he was nw jrtbeless hurried away and the sentence of execution carried out without, bia having .ut :ered a word.
