This did not, howfvor, prevent tho congregating of hundreds of the yeomanry of the District, ac computed by their wives, daughters,sisters and loves. Tho harder it rained tho more determined did they appear to waivo triumphantly tho buautifud banncis cf Democracy. At nina o'clock a procession of at least one thousand di<j? was formed at the De pot, ami divided ittlo livj Divisions; each Division was headed by a wagon handsomely decorated with all sorts of festoonery of rtves find evergreens, and drawn by six mules or horses more handsomely caparisoned, ridden postillion by Democrat negroes, and e;ich wagon filled with the loveliest of fair maidens bearing beautiful banners. Tim whole processiou was headed by a magnificent flora! car, carrying a band of lnupicians from Charleston, whose ' eX'piUito airs hushed for the moment all 1 opposition to our causa. In that procession were seventy eight 1 colored Democrats, and near 0110 hundred I hoys, the Jailer bearing a beautiful banner * on whose folds wero inscribed?"wo expect to be men".

I wish you g'r^at success in tbo good work in which you aro engaged, for I surely believe, that the peace and prosperity of the country, depend upon tho election of Seymour and Blair.

I cannot understand hat vagrant allegiance of tho citizen, vhich deserts home, and 6eoks its exercise n far off regions, against the bosom of his amily. It is 6afe to say lhat ninety-nine >ut of every huudrGd of those who crowded he field in the late war were not actuated >y a sentiment of loyally lo tho Union, nit by a wholesome dread of gun-powder, riioso who went in and did their whole luty with humanity, were patriots, in the ligheatsenee of the toi in ; yet the it.tdic.-ib leclare that, they arc to be punished a? riminuh ami forever to be excluded frorc the rights of citizenship, whilst the skulling dastards are to be dragged from theii ioIc'.h and hiding places?honored fortheii cowardice and foisted into high office: which they disgrace on account of tbeii loyally I The Radicals make another dishones use of the word ' loyally." They persistently declare that whilst all the whites o the South were disloyal, all tiio negroe wore loyal ; and upon this false ascumptiot they found their wicked design of pulling the-Southern Stales with all their whit people and their properly, under the domi nion of the negro ; and thus pnnish flu white man?attach the negro to them an< perpetuato their own power. The assump tion is as false as the design is wicked During tho war, the negro had no poliiica relations to the general Government.

But it is a slander upon the negri to say tbat be was unfaithful in bis dutie to tboM among wLom be lived arid I wbom be belonged. As a claw, tbe negr was remarkably faithful to us during tb war, and because of it, our hearts are fu! of kindrwa for him* Many of them fol lowed the fortunes of their master's tbroug the war; with fortitude.
