come out of sbeyanco, whether they endan.
ger the nation or not--which is sheer non.
sense.
In truth. freed from all these misty theo-
ries, which Mr.. Lincoln so truly called "per.
ncious abstrsctions," one point is perfectly
clear. The people of the United States,
who have won victory at a countless cost
OF lives and money over the assumptions of
State sovereignty, will not relinquish the
fruits Of that victory to any claim of State
rights. Tho people of the States which
have been in rebellion will not be allowed TO
exercise political power as States until they
make their Constitutions conform TO the
general conviction of the requirements of
the public safety. If the Statea are in abey-
anoe they will not be in operation until the
United States are satisfied that their opera.
ton is safe. This is cnmmon sense. This
is the necessity of tho case. This is the
true doctrine of tho Constitution as the
people of the United States have just in.
terpreted it by war.

Free Suffrage.

The friends of free suffrage in Ohio,
who hoped for an emphatic expression
from the Union State Convention on the
subject, should not be discouraged. The
question is to-day the leading topic before
the public mind, and will be thoroughly
canvassed in every school district until
the election takes place. The Union par
ty. as represented BY its press and public
speeches has taken as decided grounds
in its favor as the Democracy have against
it. The failure of the Convention that
met at Columbus last week to take any
stand on the issue, by no means banishes
it from the present canvass. 1t will be
brought up and discussed at the County
Conventions and at every political meet
ing. Gen. Cox, our candidate for Gov.
ernor is at this moment an ardent advo.
cate of free suffrage. Let us see that the
men who will this coming fall be elec,e ed
to represent us in the Legislature Of the
State shall also be right upon the ques.

SLAvERY.--The only States in the
coun try in which Slavery has now an ex-
lssence are Kentucky and Delaware, and
the institution is in frightfully moribund
condition in each Of them. In Delaware
it is an absurdity, in its character as we'll
as in its magnitude. In Kentucky y nearly
all the able. bodied blacks have done sery-
ice in our army, and are therefore free;
and the fact that these men have done
military service makes all their wives and
children free. So that what remains OF
slavery in Kentucky is the mere skeleton,
disjointed, lifeless, hopeless, with no pres.
ent value, and no prospect in the future.
The action Of the States on the ConstItu-
tional Amendment will wipe out the in.
sttution clean.

GENERALS GRANT AND SHERMAN.-The
Urbana. (Obio) Gazeite relates the follow.
ing anecdote n relation to the two greatest
Generals of our county, which occurred a
few days ago at Cleveland:
Upon the balcony in full sight of thou
sands, stood the two heroes of the age
Generals Grant and Sherman. Calls we're
made for speech from the latter. In res
ponse, Gen. Sherman replied. that he could
not be induced to comply with the request;
that he would always cheer fully back up
and obey bis beloved commander.in Chief,
and he was sure General Grant would not
order him to. make a speech. Cries of
"Order him to make speech, General"
broke from all parts of the building. Gen.
Grant quietly. aud With that self possession
that so eminenty marks him, replied with
a smile: Il never or der soldier to do any
thing which cannot do myself" The ef-
feet was electrical. The building trembled
with the applause that this admirable pass
age invoked"

General Cox's Anteceden's.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer says that
the Herald "bas yet failed 10 affirm or de.
ny the correctness Of the assertion of the
New York Tribune that General Cox
was "orignally Liberty party man, and
an ardent advocate Of negro suffrage"
The Herald replies that its impression
is, General Cox was Whig, I'll en- Re.
publican" The Herold is correct. Prior
to the organization of the Republican par
ty in 1854, General Cox was an active
Wing. but who cordially co operated in
the consolidation movement rhat united
,he Wing and Free. Soil parties. The
Chronicle at that time. edited bv M
Ilo"@:H, was the organ OF the Liberty
men, and the Transcript, edited by M.
Dumars, was the exponent OF the Whig
faith. Th, papers were consolidated as
the common organ of the new party, and,
10 avoid any jealousy OF feeling With
either party, both wings were represent
ed in the editorial columns of the paper.
General Cox, as co editor, was recognized
as the Wing representative, and Mr..
Howard as the Free Soil representative.
Since then General Cox has become faml-
lar to the public as a talented and influ-
enlial supporter Of Republican principles
and the cause of the Union, as citizen,
legislator and soldier. That in the fu.
ture, as in the past, he will be found
equal to any emergency of the times, and
true to every obligation resting upon him,
those who know him best have the most
implicit confidence - Warren Chronicle.
