Political.

IsN'T 1t little steep for the Boston Post
to classify George W. Morgan's democracy
with that of John A. Logan?
A RESTORED constitutional democrat in Ne
vada, after Mr.. Colfax had done speaking,
pulled of his old hat and proposed "three
cheers for Scowler Polltaxn'
In his speech at Ripley, Ohio, on Friday
last, General Cox said that General Morgan,
the pseudo democratic candidate for Gov
ernor of that State, resigned his commission
in the Union army in order to stump the
State for Mr.. Vallandigham.
GEN. JoHN A. LOGAN made a speech to the
troops at Camp Butler, H., in which he re-
viewed the deeds of all the Illinois regiments
that had been under his command, and spoke
Of the 4Sth as one of the most gallant This
regiment is made up of Egyptians, and he
advised them to form no combinations with
those scoundrels in that part of the State
who for the past four years have been keep
ing up fire in the rear; that while the brave
soldiers from our own State had been fighting
treason in the South these home rebels had
been trying to uprOot and tear down the great
national structure at home. He could, upon
q long probation-and a long one II must be,
too-forgive common rebels who had fought
bravely in bad cause, but as to these North
ern traitors he could not forget or forgive
them, and doubted If the loyal, true soldiers
Of Illinois would. The General spoke for
about an hour with impassioned el6quence,
and was cheered most uproariously many
times during the speech.
Adyices from Texas state that Gov Ham
ilton is very we'll received. He doesn't think
it hest to call a convention at any early day.
1t is his opinion that the welfare Of the
State will be promoted by proceeding slowly in
its reorganization. The negroes are generally
at work on the old plantations, in most places
being employed with the promise Of share
Of the crops in some parts, however, where
our military power is not present, the mas.
ters are holding them as slaves, and compel
them to work as formerly.
Doan Richmond was in Buffalo the other
day, and determined to reduce the wages Of
the employees about the depot They struck
and threatened fight. Dean prudently fed
to New York. A committee Of the strikers
telegraphed to him repeatedly for rostora.
tion of wages, but without getting any reply
Finally, they telegraphed that unless they
had their former pay, they would not vote
the Democratic ticket next fall. That
brought d. Il. out with the characteristic
reply THE Democratic party has gone tC
hell and you may go there too" The Dear
knows, as well as anybody, where the party
was steering for when it disappeared.

Oysters md Game.

One Of our editorial staff who recently re-
turned from "cruise in the Potomac River
and Chesapeake Bay reports that the
prospect of an abundance Of fat oysters and
game in plenty for the Washington market
was never so bright as it is this season. The
reasons are obvious: Along the shores of Vir-
ginia are vast beds of the bivalves that
have lain undisturbed during the last four
years, with nothing else to do but to grow
large and get fat.
The stern behests Of war have prevented
dredging on those fields, but now that the
war is over, the oysters will have no peace.
The tall young oystermen are preparing fer
an onslaught upon the unsuspecting mollusks,
and about the middle Of the month they will
commence operation.
The bon vivants may rest assured that we
shall have better oysters during the com
ing winter than were ever before swallowed
by the Oldest inhabitant, for never before
since Virginia oysters were brought in the
oyster butchers stalls have the beds been
left undisturbed for an interval of four years.
Game has also multiplied exceedingly in
the border States, and If the reconstructed
people of the South will only avail them
selves of the opportunity, they can make a
good living by bringing 1t to market. They
will make more money by shooting partridges
and wild turkies, than they ever did by shoot
ing Union men
Daily national Republican., 1865-09-01

Mr.. RoBERr L. LEE.-0ur able and usu-
ally well-informed contemporary, the Chicago
Tribune, has some remarks which are less ac.
curate than usual. We quote from its col
umns Of yesterday:
General Lee, we understand, has applied
for pardon in n voluminous document deny
ing his guilt i. C., denying that he Is a proper
case for pardon. On the other hand it is
largely claimed by Lees northern friends that
the terms Of his surrender to Grant amount
to pardon, and shield him from all punish
ment by the Government.
General Lees application is not a vol
luminous document, but very brief one, con-
tanning only some forty or fifty words. 1t
says nothing about his guilt or innocence,
either affirmatively or negatively. Nor have
we ever heard of any of Lees friends who
claimed that his surrender involved pardon.
The utmost that any one has ever claimed
about it is that it guarantees his personal
security, so long as he obeys the laws in force
at the place where he resides. But this is
not pardon, because II leaves him without
any civil rights and liable to trial and pun.
ishmont for his great political and military
crimes should he ever commit any infraotion
of the laws in question. Chicago Repmbli-
can, &c. A. Dana.)
