Pendleton's View? of Political Affalri-Thc Union not Rtatornl. OrKOnmA?T, September ' ll, 1869. Yesterday? a largo number of the friends of Georgo H. rend lot on culled at his re? sidence, and insisted on a. speech from him. Ho tried to beg off, but finally consented. Mr." Pendleton is still cotn polled to support himself on crutches^ Among other' things he said; I cannot agree with Governor Hayes that the vexed questions of national politics are wisely and happily sottled; that tho great questions of liberty and Union have been solved and the reconstruction of the Union made safe.- I cannot agree with him that retrenchment, economy and honesty have been introduced into the management of the Federal expenditure; that tho debt hjas been decreased and is decreasing, as he states it; that the burdens of taxation have been reduced and their weight upon the people light? ened; that sound judgment and freedom from bad influences nave been brought to the exercise of the immense power of the Secretary of the Treasury; that busi? ness is active; that enterprise is active; that vigor, energy and industry are bountifully rewarded ; that employment is abundant; that daily toil is folly com? pensated; that commerce, on the ocean and on land, is prosp?rons; and therefore I cannot serenely, as does our worthy Governor, tarn my face from all ques? tions of Federal politics and look only at State affairs; I cannot say the Union is restored when Virginia, Mississippi and Texas are under military government, and Georgia without representation in Congress; that the Union is restored when justice is administered by a drum? head court martial; that tho constitution is maintained, when we know that the Supremo Court is only waiting an oppor? tunity to declare the Reconstruction Acts unconstitutional. I oppose the adoption of the fifteenth amendment, because it is a material and radical change in our sys? tem of government. It destroys the relation of the States to the Federal Union which the constitution establish? ed, and degrades them ; takes away from the States, without their consent, that essential attribute of a self-governing community. Twp years ago, the people of Ohio, without distinction of party, by an immense majority, refused to amend the State Constitution. I see no reason, to believe that they have changed their opinion. I object to its adoption, because by the strongest implication il confers upon Congress a right reserved to the States, to exclude from the ballot persons of our own white race because of their nativity, creed, want of educa? tion or property, and prohibits the ex? clusion only of another race. If the in? terpretation of Senator Morton and Senator Howard be correct, under this amendment Congress and the State may exclude Irishmen, Germans, Catholics, Protestants, or the poor man from tho enjoymenfof suffrage, but not the negro or Mongolian. I object, to its adoption, because it is port and parcel of a scheme to flood the country with a forced impor? tation of an immense number of Chinese coolies, and. to bring into our alien race a more diffioalt form of the sooial and governmental questions that have so un? happily divided our people. Mr. Pendleton dwelt at some length upon the financial question, reiterating his former assertions in regard to the payment of the Government debt and the bond-holders in greenbacks, and abolishing the national bank system and the study of economy in reducing the national debt. "SWEET ABE THE USES OF ADVERSITY." Mr. Pendleton speaks on crutches. He wants to be Governor of Ohio, and will thus stump his State. Gov. Geary harries to Avondale to condole with the orphans and widows, and to tell them he will report their needs to the next Legislature, which he may do if he is re-elected, which is just what he wanta to be, which is just what took him to Avondale. President Grant is so affected by the death of Secretary Rawlins, (a despatch telling of whose condition ho pocketed at a ball, and thereby frustrated the for? mer's dying wish to see his chief alive,) that attending bis funeral in tho morn? ing, he sallies off on another pleasure trip the same evening. [New York Republic, A Latin poet Bays that the Sirens were certain Neapolitan yoong ladies, who, not consent with being handsome and accomplished, took to wearing paint and false bair, and went with their necks bare almost to the waist-for which Minerve one day, as they were coming out of the temple, soddenly turned their pretty ankles into fish tails, and sent them roll? ing into the sea. The poet writes this history to bis wife, aa a warning to all pretty oharcb-goera how they paint and expose themselves. Trenton, N. J., is on a broad grin over a hugo joke which has unintentionally been perpetrated upon some of its high? ly respectable citizens. An enterprising colored man devised a petition to the Common Council of that city, asking for an enlargement bf the school-honse for colored ohildren. It occurred to him that the signatures of certain white folks might be serviceable, and he applied for and obtained a large number. Tho peti? tion commences "We, tho parents of tho colored ohildren." FVmrile Orcos-it? Decettel?a and ?nc?c cenc ie?. You nf? girls and riper matrons need not go about robed like religious fana? tics; bat let those to whom a high-necked and long-sleoved party dress wonld be a grievous affliction,* content themselves with showing a modest rim of shoulder above'their U?dies. And"l6t them not forget that wb??-tnrned ' white arms ' can be seen and appreciated without of ne? cessity being exposed clear up tb the arm? pits. No fair yoong girl ever lost nny thing in the estimation of men -whose opinion is worth having, by appearing with neck, shoulders and arms chastely veiled in delicate lace or muslin, instead of exposing them to tho promisouons I gaze of a publio assembly. Wo hoard away tho jewel that wo prize 1 the most; we draw a curtain before tho picture that we dote upon; wo hide our m OHt sacred feelings in onr hearts; wo veil the shrine of tho temple; wo hodge the lily about, lest its whiteness should be soiled; we want to cover np from other eyes the things that are the fairest, the dearest and the most sacred to us. Oh, woman! tho most sacred thing, the fairest and dearest that man has in this world, is yourself. And I hold that I a man's instinctive protest is the best j guido in this matter. And tho feeling of the father, the bro? ther, the lover and tho husband, when tho nature is nnpervertod, is that the arms that caress and enfold him, the bosom which is the dearest home bis head can have on earth, should be as | sacred as was tho holy of holies in tho days of tho Jewish rites. A woman's body is the temple of her soul, and her soul's outward symbol. What wc want to koep pure, holy and un? defiled, wo do not expose to be u com? mon bait for all tho eye? of thc world, puro and impnre, to gloat upon. Tho way in which men, as a body, act j and express themselves, when brought j face to face with this dress reform ques tion, is inconsistent, unjust and unge? nerous toward women, and unworthy of themselves, as gentlemen; they think because a woman is not their sister, or wife, or sweetheart, that it is no conoern of theirs how she demeans herself in this j matter of dress. On tho contrary, they seem eager to help posh her into a false position by hypocritical compliments, and phrases of hollow admiration, which are as false and bitter as Dead Bea fruit, if she will but stop to analyze the feel? ings from which they sprnng, tho motivos which prompt them. Too much familiar? ity breeds contempt. No one knows this better than the man who watches over the dress and deportment of his wife or sister with tho stern jealousy of an Ori? ental, while at the same time he blandly 1 encourages the wivos and daughters and sisters of other mon in every species of license. Women do not always know-the very | young ones especially-that a certain dash and freedom in the stylo of dress encourages familiarity in the manners of I men toward them. They too often fol low blindly after tho reigning mode, withoat questioning its meaning, or the I effect it will have upon men's opinion of them. They feel strong, because they go in droves, and in droves they daru to indulge in a style of dross for which any one woman would be ignominiously hoot? ed oat of sooiety, if she dared to appear I in it ulone, and upon any occasion for j which it is not sanctioned by fashion. If men would but give up their abomi? nable two-sided policy on this question, and aot toward every rep nt able woman, whom they find masquerading in a dis? reputable attire, jost as they would, un? der like circumstances, toward their own wives, daughters or sisters, as far as con? sistent with surroundings and circum? stances, this mode of dress would soon be driven to its rightful home-the haunts of tho profligate and the lost women. For my own dear countrywomen, I have One wish, which has moved mo to speak as I have spoken. Plain words are hard words to say, but wolds which must be spoken nevertheless, and which aro better spoken sooner or later. It is that they should be known all over the world as the most modest of women in dress and deportment, even as they are now distinguished for wit, elegance, pa? triotism and innate pnrity of character. Let the women of other countries belie themselves if they will, by a mode of at? tire which is in direct opposition to the dictates of their natural modesty, but let ours reservo their own chastity. [Packard's Monthly. Whon Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote a book lampooning a whole people -charging them with the foulest of crime?, and a universality of guilt, it was implioitly believed? not only by tho North, but, translated into every civil? ized tongue-it became the prose Mar? seillaise of the Humanitarians through? out the world. Now, that in pursuit of her prurient tastes she charges incest upon an acknowledged libertine, the whole world is in arms, and Byron is de? fended as thongh ha were a Milton or a | Bunyan ; all going to show that the world is unjust and fond of scandal, and that Mrs. Stowe missed her occupation when she failed to become a Proonress, TzuRiniiE.-It is stated that, in the ten years prior to 1860, no lesa than 8,466 lives were lost by the varions acci? dents in the coal mines of England.
