Internal Revenue at Washington has
lately sent to the Assessors of Internal
Revenue on this coast the following in
structions: ....
"The ruling of this Office on the ques-
ton of offsetting losses against gains in
making annual returns of incomes is, that
no losses in one kind of business can be
offset against gains in any other business.
Therefore the losses and expenses incurred
by Mr.. R in mining stock specula-
tons, and farming cannot be Offset with
gains from business as County Collectors,
or any other business" I-a.r. -..

WHEN the resolution to thank General

WHEN the resolution to thank General
Sherman for the capture of Savannah
came up in the Senate motion was made
to refer it, because that was the usual
course. Mr.. Clarke, of New Hampshire,
said that General Sherman, in cutting
loose from Atlanta, and marching through
Georgia, had disregarded all military laws
and requirements, and he (Mr. Co. was in
favor of disregarding the practice and
presidents of the Senate, in order to thank
him and his army for what they had done.
The resolution was put to vote, and
passed instanter and unanimously.

THE GREAT ISSUE.

The great issue now before the American
people is this: Are you for or against Pres
idsnt Johnson's plan for an immediate res
toration of the Union? The democracy,
from Maine to Minnesota, are for that plan
and against all the republican schemes for
negro equality. The administration wants
to know who are it's friends, and there Is no
way in which this can be shown so plainly
as by your votes. Conservative republicans
who wish to sustain President johnson, can
not do it by voting for the republican candi-
dates. Every one of them is opposed to
Johusons policy and in favor of negro sui
frage. A vote for any one of them is vote
against President Johnson and his admins
tration. Their scheme of negro suffrage has
received quietus in Connecticut. every
county but one casting heavy maJorltles
against the amendment TO the constitution
Hartford county gives l, 200 majority against
New Haven county 1000, New London
county 600, Fairfield county about l,5oO,
Tolland comfy 400, Litchfeld county about
500, and Middlesex county about 600. Wind
ham county voted $50 the other way. This
vote shows that the people are going to sus-
tain President johnson and put down all the
republican negro equality schemes. Will
you suggest to your republicans neighbors,
in the mildest manner possible, that the time
has come when all national conservative men
should act together that the republican Or
ganization is controlled by Sumner, wilson,
Chandler, Yates, Greeley, Chase Co. and
is forcing the issue of negro equality upon
the people that this monstrous doctrine can
be put down In no other way than by voting
the Democratic Union and Administration
ticket, and that, now, in our county election,
is the time to show whether they are friends
or enemies of Andrew Johnson and his meas
ures.

Attempts To CajoIe the SoIdiery.

The vote of the people of Connecticut on 90
amending their state constitution as to give
to the black population equally with the
white the privilege of voting, is decidedly
against that proposition and inasmuch as
the state Is republican in its politics by, as it
was claimed, majority of ten or twelve
thousand, it may fairly be said that this
summary disposal of the proposed amend
ment is significant The New York Tribune
and kindred journals, in urging the amend
ment upon the favor of the people up to the
very day of election, openly took the ground
that the action of Connecticut in this matter
would be indicative of the way 1t would fare
in all the other states. No appeal was left
untried by the radical influence that could
possibly help forward the negro suffrage
scheme by outside interference. And after
all the effort and argument, it has been re-
jected by popular majority of thousands
IL is profoundly gratifying fact to contem-
plate as u plain refusal of the people of
sovereign state to surrender their honest
judgment on local affairs to the dictation and
threats of rampant radicalism, and also be
cause it is outspoken and complete en-
dorsement of President Johnson's restoration
policy allowingthe people of each state to man
age their own purely local affairs, without
going to ambitious theorizers and twaddhng
reformers for orders and the president may
feel cheered and encouraged by this vote of
the independent freemen OF Connecticut to
proceed resolutely in the safe constitutional
path in which he has set out. We are quite
ready to accept the result as the Tribune
would have US, as determining the fate of the
| radical negro suffrage plan for other parts OF
the country Boston Post.

Who refused TO exchange them?
Edwin NJ. Stanton, Secretary of war.
What proof of this can be adduced :?
Col, Straight states that Stanton said, Il
will not exchange sound rebels for the living
skeletons of Union soldiers"
Is there any further proof?
Gen. Butler, in speech in Lowell said :
che had been ordered by Mr.. Stanton to put
forward the negro question to comp!icate aud
prevent exchange"
What further?
Mr.. Junius Henri Brown, a republican
correspondent of the n. Y. Tribune. says,
''every one we met told us the same story,
that the secretary of war was the only obsta-
Gle in the way of the resumption of the ex-
change"

Women Under Democratic Rule and wo-
men Under Abolition Rule.

The Ohio State Journal on Saturday morn
ing devoted an editorial to the subject of
outrsges on women. On this subject 1t said
-'Not long ago it was pride that in America
women could travel from one end of the country
TO the other perfectly secure from insult.''
That was when the democratic party had
sway in this country. Further on, the Jour
nal declares
s'Times have changed, we are sorry to saw and
if repeated outrages, under aggravated circum-
stances, are any warning in duty bound to
declare that it is unsafe Tor a woman to journey
even from one town to another without escort. ),
The abolition party has ruled this country
for over four years, and the morals of the
country have become such that according to
the testimony of the central organ of the abo
ition party of Ohio, now sit is unsafe tor a
woman to journey even from one town to an
other without escort" God knows, the coun-
try is sufficiently taxed to enable women to
travel from one end of the country to the 9th
er perfectly secure from insult" as they were
able to do in the days when the democratic
party administered the government and the
country was lightly taxed.
The Generalization of the people of this
country, at the present time, is something to
think of; and if the people desire to revert
back to the days of barbarism let them re-
tain the present party in power little lon
ger. 1t is time the people should stop and
think before ti-ey leap.-DeKalb Democrat.

Find the Men.

We should like to see the soldier. though
he had fought bravely through the whole
war, who has not been traduced, slandered,
and lied about by the radicals, Whenever he
has had the independence to advocate or vote
the democratic ticket. 1t makes no differ
ence how much he has exposed his life for
his country, if he does not favor the negro
equality programme. he is Comprehend"
So 1t has been since the commencement of
the war. Mcclellan, Sherman, Buell., and
hundreds of others of lesser note, have been
subjected to this abuse.
just now the mark for considerable por
ton of their venOmous outpourings, is Gen.
Benton, the soldiers candidate for governor
of Iowa. Though q republican, and an Off
Ger, they hesitate not 10 ridicue his preten-
sions TO Office and sneer at his patriotism.
The man cannot be found vino is safe from
the sneers of these loyal" radicals, unless
be succumbs to their command, and bows to
their dictation. No man is loyal but one
who believes in, and ACES up to their polite

ly earn a subsistence; when to this is added
the attempted degradation of the white man,
his wife and children, by efforts to school his
childred with blacks, and to make this INFER
Tor race his equal socially, politically and
morally, the soldier cannot avoid distressing
the simulated friendship of such men, and
the gorge" of suspicion will instinctively
rise
The main issue in the fall elections is the
negro suffrage question. In the platform OF
several states where the fanatics have dared
TO speak out, the principal plank has been
the extension of the right of voting to negroes.
In other states, this question has been lodged.
But let not the soldier be deceived; the lead
ers of the rabidists are every where In favor
of degrading the white man to the level oil the
negro. Ii is impossible to elevate the negro
to the white standard therefore, the latter
must be debased. We have 10 fear of the
result, notwithstanding the herculean endea-
vors made to entrap the intelligent soldier. -
Having performed his duty as brave and
enduring veteran, he now returns to the pur-
suits of citizen. He will reason for him
self, act for himself, and vote for himself, and
in doing so will best serve the interests Of the
country. He cares no more for the loud
brawling of the demsgogue whether he be
governor discharged shoulder strap, than
for any other mere politician. What he says
will have no further weight than the talk Of
the humblest citizen In the land but of one
thing we may be assured, the true white man
and the real W tie soldier will never be made
to believe that the negro is his equal.-Ni
