ANOTHER REBEL IN FAVOR OF NEGRO
SUFFRAoE.-Ex- Governor Wescott, now
a refugee at Montreal, favors the extern
sion of the suffrage to the freedmen of the
South.
They are made free, he says universal
freedom has been proclaimed, and it is
now a qualification to deny them the right
to vote lie does not believe that they
willvote with their former masters, but they
will give the South larger basis of re-
presentation, and raise her in importance
in the nation. He is peculiarly bitter on
the Democratic party. They are towards
and traitors too, lie says, and he will
never again in his life, if he vote at all,
vote for Democrat. He will vote for
none but Republicans There is no issue
now, he argues, between the South and
the Republicans. Slavery is gone-se-
cession is forever dead. The South
should now unite in keeping the Republi.
can party in power, and in preventing
the restoration of Democratic ascendency.

edly plunged his butcher-knife into their
throats and bosoms, winding up the deed
of horror by setting the bed on fire, and
then his own bed down stairs. He says
that he committed the deed out Of love
for the young lady to whom he was en-
gagged to be married, as she would moi
have him without the money, and ht
got it.
