| DEMOCRATIC YoUTH.-The students Of Union
| University, Murfreesbororo, Tennessee, held
democratic meeting on the 3rd instant, at which
patriotic resolutions, conceived in the most lau.
dablo spirit, were enthusiastically adopted.
| A DEMOCRATIC PRoTEsT.--The democratic
members Of the Iowa house Of representatives,
have entered their protest against resolution
offered in that body to print $500 copies of
| Gov kirkwood's inaugural message. The mes
sage was tarrago Of black republicanism, and
the protest is made because the democratic
members believe that the governor has depar-
! ted from his plain constitutional duty, which
REQUIRES that he should deal with matters con-
cerning the State; and that he commits an in
trusion upon the legislature by forcing his views
| Of other questions before them. They insist
! that he has no business to make the State pay
! for circulating partisan speech. They protest,
secondly, because they look upon the message
as an attempt to palliate or excuse the treason
| of John Brown; and they go on to specify sew
eral other points of dissatisfaction--all arising,
however, out Of the governors admiration for
| John Brownism and malice towards the sup
porters Of the Constitution. The message was
| one of a kind which deserved rebuke like this.
| 1t is certainly an abuse of the peoples money.

a sort -,a7at ,.-r.-- szss.~
NEGRO SUFFRAdE.--The black republicans in
the New York Legislature have revived the pro
position to establish free negro suffrage in that
State. The Assembly has passed tie consttu-
! tional amendment to that effect, as it did on q
former occasion, when it was thought advisable
| to let the measure be defeated by a democratic
minority in the Senate. We believe that such
a bill was also cnce allowed TO pass both hou-
ses and be pigeon holed by the governor; and
Judging from these circumstances the black re-
publicans do not really intend to let negro
| free-suffrage law come into actual force ever
now. They palter with the negro in double
sense; they throw sop to linn but silly keep g
string attached, SO that they can jerk it 5out 0
his mouth before he has swallowed it. These
black republicans thus Insult the white citizens
by placing the negro OH level with them, anc
they cheat the negro by deluding him with The
belief that they mean to give him what they ap
pear to Offer. 5..s
