Tb* Important Question Before tlie
Country and It? Solution.
Shall thia great and proud Repub?
lic be governed by a negro balance of
powor? That is the important ques?
tion now before the country. Shall
35,000,000 of tho Caucasian race
the highest type of mankind-be.
ruled by a few millions of ignorant
negroes, who oro the lowest in tho
order of human beings, and who are
scarcely removed from barbarism?
Suoh a proposition would seem in?
credible were it not supported by
facts. Some may doubt even whether
such a monstrous idea would be seri?
ously entertained by any party or
faction, and may think that we state
the case too broadly. There is, how?
ever, no exaggeration ; it is the well
known purpose of the radicals to per?
pet?ate their power, if possible,
through the votes of the Southern
negroes. This has been their policy
all along. The Reconstruction Acts
of Congress, disfranchising a large
number of whites and enfranchising
the blacks of tho South, were passed
for this purpose. Tho bitter feeling
to the President, the throats cf ini
peaching bim, the scurrilous abuse of
him, and all the legislation to humi?
liate him and his office aud to take
away his power, grew out of his op?
position to . this atrocious policy of
the radicals. The brutal aud be?
nighted Africans, just emancipated
from slavery, and not kuowing their
right hands from their loft, not know?
ing what a vote meant or what they
voto for, have been given power with
a view to deciding the Presidential
electiou and tho destiny of tho Re- :
public. The intelligent white people
of onr own blood and race in the
South have been placed under those
barbarians, and tho fairest aud rich?
est portion of tho country is turned
over to desolation, with tho prospect
of frightful starvation, demoraliza?
tion and a war of races. And this is
all done for no other motive or ob?
ject than to keep the radical party in
control of thc Government.
Tho spouting of radical orators and
emissaries about equality, tho rights
of man, the poor negro, and all that,
is sheer hypocrisy and clap-trap.
These radicals have refused to give ,
tho suffrage to tho few negroes in .
those Northern States where they
had the power to do so, and where
. the negro vote would be of little con?
sequence comparative!}', while they
are doing the utmost to make the
ignorant and degraded blacks of the .
South a controlling policier*! element
in the Republic. Wno ever heard of
anything more inconsistent or mon- ,
strous? Such conduct seems like in?
sanity, aud could hardly be credited
were there not examples iu history of
a similar character. Tho Jacobins in
Franco shed rivers of blood in the
name of humanity and equality, and 1
the Puritan ancestors of our Jacobins
of tho present time were not less
cruel and proscriptive in the name of
religion and truth. The radical re?
volutionists of France set up a
strumpet as representing the God?
dess of Reason, and committed the
foulest deeds under the pr?tention of
progress and a higher philosophy. It
is the sumo iu all countries and ages
under revo'utionary radicalism, what- 1
ever form il may take. It is so now
with tho nigger worshipper-; and ra?
dical revolutionists. Passion, fanati?
cism ?iud political ambition havo sub?
verted reason. Everything must give
way beforo their intolerant dogmas.
Let tho glorious institutions handed
down to us by the fathers, this white
man's government, so full of glory
and happiness in tho past and the
future of our grand Republic, perish
for the sake of au irrational and im?
practicable theory. That is the poli?
cy of tho radical Republicans. That
is the cause of the trouble between
the President and Congress. That|
is tbe great issue before the country
tho issue to bo decided in the next
Presidential election.
The issue is clearly defined. There
is no possibility of smothering it up
or dodging it. There is the patriot?
ism and conservatism of the Presi?
dent on one hand and the selfish and
destructive policy of the radicals on
the other. Mr. Johnson, -while he
proposes to secure the freedom of the
Cnj???ijy?teu*. jicgiues, UUU to give
them every chance to raise themselves
in the scale of civilization, desires
the early restoration of the South
through the action of the intelligent
white jieople. The radicals would
only restore the South on tho basis of
negro barbarism, for the sake of per?
petuating their power through negro
votes. Tho people everywhere aro
taking sides on this great issue, and
by next November it will be so well
understood that the election will turn
upon it and it alone. Mr. Johnson's
policy, as shown in his messages to
Congress, and in his firm resistance
to negro supremacy, will and must bo
tho platform on one side, and negro
supremacy, with a negro balance of
power na provided for in the Recon?
struction Acts and coarse of a radical
Congress, will he the platform on the
other. The election cannot be con?
tested ou any other ground. The
popular name of Grant or of any
other hero of the war will have little
weight against the great principle in?
volved. Should Grant take a nomi?
nation ou the radical platform he will
be defeated, as another popular gene?
ral, Scott, was. Men or names will
amount to little in tho coming con?
test; principles will bo everything.
Nor can he or any other candidate
succeed by ignoring tho principles at
issue and by standing upon personal
popularity only. Mr. Johnson
stands alone at present as the repre?
sentative of the conservative side, for
ho has made the issue and the solu?
tion of it depends upon his action.
He is, as has been said before, master
of tho situation. He cannot be set
aside. He must either be the conser?
vative candidate, or must name one
to take his place. Mr. Chase is the
representative cf the other side-o?
radicalism, of negro supremacy, of a
negro balance of power, and of all
the other extremes of the radical
party. Should ho and Mr. Johnson
be the opposing candidates, they
would represent fully and clearly the
principles involved. It is possible,
however,-that tho radicals may wish
to use Grant or some other popular
general, with a view of extricating
themselves from tho dilemma they
are in. But no ono can bring them
salvation. The President has broken
their party to pieces; they have no?
thing to stand upon, and next No?
vember will seal their fate forever.
The re-action which set in powerfully
through the elections last fall, will
now be followed by a political revolu?
tion that will utterly destroy them.

grief, too deep for words, that the most
celebrated corrective, invigorant and alte?

Gentlemen: lam well pleased with tho
result of tho uso of tho "Double Refined
Poudretto" on my crops. I triod it on both
corn and cotton, and am satisfied wborever
it was applied tho yield was more than
double what it would have boon without it.
I regret exceedingly my not neing it moro
extensively tho present year, but will try
to make up my loss by purchasing a larger
quantity next spring. I regard it as tho
cheapest, most reliable, and easiest man
acjnd fertilizer within MTIV knowledge, and
cheerfully recommend it fas I havo tried it
thoroughly) to tho farmers of this section,
and particularly to those planting cotton,
from tho fact bf ita causing |it to mature
from ton days to two weeks earlier than it
would without tho uso of tho Poudretto. I
also used it on my gardon, and found it of
much benefit to all kinds of plantH. Ycry
respectfully, Ac. G. S. OGLESBY.
Extract from a lettor received from Prof.
Martin, of Hampden. Sidney Collogo,
Va., dated July 1, 18G7:
Tho Double Befiucd Foudrotto is operat?
ing like a charm on my crop, and attract?
ing universal attention from all beholders.
I am already satisfied that it is thc cheap?
est and surest renovator of our worn-out
lands. -

Jame.? R. Dey, Esq.
SH*; Tho Doublo Refined Tcidrette I
bought for two other parties in connection
with myself-ono of them usod it on cotton
and corn, and thinks it answered finely;
tho other put it on cotton, on very poor
ground, and thinks it doubled bis crop. I
used it on corn. It answered finely, and
was thought by tho hand that cultivated
the crop to be "fully equal to Rhode's Super
Phosphate I also used it on abont an
acre of cotton, and I am clearly of opinion
that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer
in use, and I expect to order several tons
this winter. Yours, verv respect full v,

The Double Refined Poudretto, pur?
chased of you last spring, I think, in?
creased my crop of cotton 150 pounds per

the rate of 200 pounds per acre, drilled in
with cotton seed. Yotirs, Ac,

you the next year to apply to my cotton
crop. Yours very respect full v.

Sir: In reply to your Inquiry of the re?
sults of our experience in the USC of your
improved Poudretto-purchased of you tor
this year's cotton crop-wo would beg leava
to say that thc present season has been
one quite unfavorable to thc action e.f all
fertilizers.
Several kinds of manures wero used by
us, with tho except' n e>f ymir Poudretto,
with little or no effect to the crop.
Where the Poudretto waa need, itgavo
Us near half a bale more per acre, and
caused the cotton to open much e .rlier;
mut we would, therefore, recommend the
same as ;i concentrated manure b-r tho
growth of cotton, a? well as Improvement
to the soil. Yours, vory respectfully,
