DIsunion Democracy.

Some of the Southern ultras, or orators
| whose Onl DiedicdB7euttln for a diseased De-
mOcracy is more of it, tell us, they intend 10
! go in. with their Charleston machine in the
doHbie-shuHe of nominating and making a
| President; and. if they don't succeed. they
intend to rend the Union. Some of the Re
| publican press beg to know what we think of
| it. They shall hear.
The meanest sort of any kind of gambling
is that which plays tricks with The cards.
and hence, there is no adjective vigorous
enough TO describe the meanness of that sort
OF political gambling which would assemble
~ Charleston, mark the cards, deal and shut
fe. and then throw up the hand when the
game was found to be losing When the
Democratic DisuniOnists of the South decline
to run with the machine" and tell us at the
start, they don't intend 10 run icih H. we can
listen To them with patience, rs they preach
disunion; but we have no sort OF patience
with that sort of political gambling which
gets beat in running the Democratic against
the Republican machine, and then gets mad
and snlashes the government because of it I
Don't play with the machines at all, we say,
II you mean what You say Don't disgrace
yourself by going into an election. and then
refusing to abide by the result of it
The prol ability w s hat If Fremont had been
ell, cted President, he would have duped eve
rybody that voted for him. on principle, aud
that he would have turned out 10 be what he
really was at heart, South Carolina pro-
slavery man. Hence to have smashed the
government only because he was elected, if
elected be had been, would have been a folly
Is we'll as a crime.
When an election takes place for the Pre-
sidency: all parties have got to abide by the
result OF it. If the President then commits
any overt act against any section of the
country, that the courts cannot correct, the
right of Revolution is an Unborn, inherent
right, that everybody has who dare take the
consequences of il. But the idea of reyou-
tCnIzlHg the government because we don't
like the result Of an of election we have been
having hand in, is altogether too Freachv
for the American market, South we think as
we'll as North.
The difficulty with many Democrats Sonth.
Just now, is, that they think more OF that
''Democratc negro" than of their own South
ern country, or of the country at large. Drop
the Democratic negro aud keep him to his
cotton, rice and tobacco. and we Opposition
Conservatives of the North. can, with the
Democratic party, nearly unite the North
against sectiondiim. The North is sound at
heart but, as the Democratic negro is run
South, the Republican negro will be run
North, to run negrO-r,dipg and driving d ma
gOgues into office. What the country wants,
Is what it had up TO 1913 -absence OF the ne
gro from politics, aud the consequent nation
al division of parties upon white mcn's in
tcrests and predictions, not exclusively
upon Republican aud Democratic negros-

Gov. Chase and Rev. w. ID. Chadick.
Some time since we repnblished from the
Huntsville Democrat, with comments, letter
from the Rev. VIM. ID. CHADIcK, detailing the
substance of conversation he had several
years ago with Gov. CHASE, of Ohio. Mr..
CHADIcK had visited Ohio for the purpose of
Letting place of residence for some ne
groes emaneipated in Madison County, Ala,
and conferred with Gov. CHASE on The sub
jet. A portion of the conversation between
them was reported as follows:
"'For bis part, (said Gov. Ohase) he would
rather never see another free negro set his
foot upon Ohio soil.' / asked his reason.
'Becanse,' said he, their moral Influence is
degrading / then remarked, that it appear
ed to me elaring Inconsistency 10 him. and
others in Ohio, TO love our Southern slaves
so much as to desire their freedom and clam
or for their emancipation, and yet hate them
so much as to be unwilling to allow them a
home in their own State; especially so, since
by the existing laws in the slaves States. the
negro cannot be liberated and remain where
he is He replied, Il do not tcish The state enamel
pdted because lore him. 6ut because Ihate ms mas
ter hate slaoey-I hate a MN that os0n Oiu

The Columbus (Ohiol Journal on behalf OF
Gov. CHASE responds as follows 10 the above:
We are dutlgized 10 say that Governor Chuse
nerer used The language osersbed 10 hfns. The Gov
ernor received Mr.. Chadick, who said lie was
seeking location for some emancipated
blacks, with courtesy, and conversed with
him some time on the objects he had in view.
He did not favor his designs OF settling the
negroes in Ohio, hut as certainly did not

just Legislation against colored people, with
"A design to exclude them from the State, or
to Opprcss them in il, he thinks that the pres
enee of the colored race in Northern lati-
tudes, is forced, and when natural laws are
allowed freer operation than now, that class
of population will seek Southern climates,
and gradually disappear from Northern. He
may have expressed these views, but certain
ly said nothing inconsistent with them. Nor
d d he express any hatred for Shareholders.
There was something in the manner and con-
versatiOn of Mr.. Chadick, which, perhaps
gave Oflense, and it is quite
probable that some language prompted Ivy
dispieasure. may have been misunderstood.
After the lapse of two years, Mr.. Chadick
doubtless now believes that Governor Chase
said what he repeated;-but he is entirely
We are very far from believing that Mr..
CHADIcK would misrepresent Gov. CHASE, or
any one else. He may have misunderstood
him but we are disposed to doubt even that |
1t is the more likely that Mr.. CHADIcK should |
the language of Gov. CHASE than
that the latter should for the impression |
upon Mr.. CHADICK's mind by the language |
used, must have been deep and lasting.

/ noticed in the newspapers to-day that in
the city OF Boston, where short time ago a
great Union meeting was held, the Republi-
cans succeeded in eleeting their Mayor by a
large majority. ~
The above extract from the late speech of
Senator GwTS, says the New York Journal Of
Commerce, shows that he is mistaken respect
ing the late election in Boston. Mayor
LINCOLN was first elected as a Citizens can
didate, and this year reelected as such, the
old Wings and Conservatives supporting, and
we believe in fact first nominating him. He
was The candidate of the Boston Courier. and
although supported by the Republicans to
defeat the Democratic candidate, is not, we
believe, Republican. in anything like the
present acceptation of that term.

Here we perceive that Virginia State
stocks and those of Missouri alone have eX-
pcrienced very slight depression at the last
quotation, and none at all while the Harper :
Ferry excitement was at its height, while
those Of Tennessee and North Carolina have
risen since that affair. These facts. we think,
go very far To show that the capitalists of
New York feel confident Of the power and
will of the great conservative elements Of the
country in crisis like the present. One Of
the cheering signs of the times il that the
course OF dn3nce is not disturbed by the mad
