garts, however dare not attempt what they
impudently threaten.
What will be the real consequence Of
VALLANpreHAM's election ? The able and
timely letter, which our exile@ leader all
dressed to the Democracy at the mass
meeting in this city ON the 18th instant,
contains the true response, Says MIR.
VAlLANDlouAn, referring to the silly threats
Of his enemies
"ln any event he whom majority Of the
QUALIFIED electors Of Ohio may choose for their
Governor, icW he iaaHgTated, aud the vast
mass OF the people, without distinction Of party,
will aid. if need be, in the work Of keeping
the peace Of the State, and carrying out the
fundamental maxim Of popular governments,
that 'the majority must govern. For let Mr.
Brough, and all others who would defeat the
viii Of the people, take notice that there is a
mighty mass of men in Ohio, whose nerves
are strung up like steel who mean that the
inau who is the choice Of the people shall be
the Peoples Governor. Should that choice fall
upon me, all the duties Of the Office shall be
faithfully and fearlessly discharged would
mysef obey the Constitution and laws, and
see to it that all others obeyed them within
their limits and jurisdiction. The courts should
be open and restored once more to their right
fol authority, justice administered without
denial or delay, and the military in strict sub
ordination to the civil power Hdbeas cor
nus sh.uld ee respected no citizen arrested
except upon due process OF law, or held eX-
cept for trial by the civil tribunals and none
/ kidnapped from the State
Such, drawn with graphic pen, will
be the consequence of Democratic
triumph on the 18th of October next. 1t
is result to which every freeman in Ohio,
without distinction of party, can look to
with perfect qualification. The promise
thus held out to the people by VALLANDId-
HAM is substantial one and will be rea-
| lied in the event Of his election. How
widely does it contrast with the conduct Of
the present incumbent of the Gubenator-
ial chair Under his administration the
Constitution and the laws Of Ohio have
been wilfully and reclllessly trampled il
the dust. The election of BRoUoH will
afford to the people no guarantee for {
better Administration. A renegade Dem
oerat, a hired priest at the altar of Aboli
tionism, as he is, what good can we prom
ise ourselves in having him to rule owe
us ? lie will be but an embodiment o
all the lawlessness and partizan maglig
pity of Ton, intensified YATLANDIGHAM
whose frmness and integrity are know
by all men, will uphold the Constitution
and promptly execute the laws. He vii
protect those inclianable rights and liber
ties of the citizen, which, during two year
past, have been so cruelty violated Hi
administration will sustain the dignity o
the State, and promote the peace and hap
piness Of the people.

French Recognition of COnCed-
crate States

Chevalier has written pamphlet entitled
France, Mexico and the United States, the
general scope Of the argument of which is,
that Mexico if governed under French inau
ence, will be Of infinite use to France, and
that the expected benefits are only TO be OBJ
tanned by the recognition OF, and subsequent
alliance with, the Confederate States Of
America. 1t concludes in the following
words
As soon as the Confederate States shall be
recognized by France their strength will be
quinlupled and all their gain will be their
adversary loss For other States are only
waiting the signal from France to loIlnw her
example Among the secondary commercial
nations there are many who desire the CON
stituton of n Confederate republic; and al
though they have hitherto been restrained by
the phantom Of Slavery, these nations will
follow France, because they know that we
never lend our support to any work which is
not one of social renovation To these
nations will naturally rally Spain, which pos
sesses Havana, and Austria, which, if the
Archduke Maxmilian accepts the throne OF
Mexico viii be more directly connected with
the affairs OF the New World After that
England will do likewise She will recognize
the South The Northern States will no
longer perseyere in useless struggle. The
navy Of France is an argument which, il
need be, will support its diplomatic acts.

PmbIic women In NashvIIIe.

Public women at Nashville, by order of
Gen Granger, are required to furnish Sur
geon's certificates of health aud procure
license Four hundred dollars have been re-
ceived for such license - Exchange
This illustrates the morality which we are
introducing in the South The Pnrlans of
New England who brought on this war in the
cause of " God and humanity" for the relor
nation of Southern morals, have ever pro-
fpased holy horror of the social habits of
the Southern people They have much to
say of uni censed crime in the slave States,
and now they have concluded to license it,
1t should not he forgotten that they have an
| eye to the grgenbacks as well as morality.
| The sum Of 800 is quite a liberal price for
the pecu lar sort Of license referred to. The
crime licensed must be very profitable in
Nashville, since the apostles Of New Eng.

city Wbetler Gen Granger requires license
