How SOLDIERS RESPECT EACH OTHER.-The
New York Journal Of Commerce gives quite an
interesting account of the manner in which the
Federal and Confederate soldiers treat each other
when brought in contact
A few days since the 2lst Connecticut were
formed in line, homeward bound, when about
FIVE hundred discharged rebel prisoners filed be-
fore them, for the purpose of entering the bar
racks, many of whom were in rags and almost
barefoot. No joke or other ill-timed manifesto
tons of feeling occurred, but each maintained
an air of manliness, decorum and respect to the
other. The Journal thus concludes its article
The conduct of the Union soldiers exhibits a
marked contrast to that of those non-combatant
writers and orators who are daily indulging in
their filings at the Conquered chivalry' of the
South: 1t is worthy of remark, in this connec-
I, ton, that not single instance of personal COL
slon has been reported between any of the
thousands of Union and rebel soldiers now saun-
tering through our streets.

Negro Equality.

A new semi-monthly paper, called 1.-THE Com
of Baltimore and is devoted to the interest of the
negro population of Maryland and other Sou tn
ern States. The COMMITTEE who have charge
oft say: eve desire and intend to make our
Journal the medium through which our rights,
our manhood, and our equality before the law
can be indicated"
We had thought this portion of our population
might have foreborne for awhile this expense, be-
ing already so well supplied with tinerant lee
turers, to say nothing of that portion of the
press who support this obnoxious doctrine. But
perhaps some Of the jealous advocates of negro
equality are also anxious seekers after office, and
not knowing whether this new doctrine will be
popular at first, fear leap in the dark, and, by
way of experiment, have put forth this "Com-
mittee'' as feeler. They ought to let the peo-
pie know who they are, and whether they design
making this Equality" the issue at the fall cleo
ton. The party have already done so in some
of the States and why should its advocates not
openly avow it here2 Mr.. Summer has pro-
claimed from the Club of the Universe" that
the great battle Of negro equality is yet to he
fought. Mr.. Chase in his letter to committee
of negroes in New Orleans, has lent it his sane
ton; and large number of strong-miuded
women are shouting its praise over the length of
the land. ... ,-. ,.
The most popular argument now used in ia
Vor of this doctrine, rests on the fact that ne
groes were compelled to serve as soldiers during
the rebellion. If this entities them to the right
of suffrage, then it should also entitle boys Of
eighteen, great numbers of whom served the
country, in like capacity, with much more
ability than any negro troops which were mus
tered into service; yet, under the law, these
youths are not entitled to the right of suffrage.
Then why elevate the negro of twenty-five, who
has done no service, above the white boy OF
eighteen, who has rendered his country valuable
service2 But this is not all. Why should value
less service in the army entitle negro-and, in
deed, all negro men, for it is claimed for ALTO
the right of suffrage, while it is denied to the
thousands Of unnaturalized foreigners who have
served faithfully in the army during the war just

nsy@ An order published by Gen. Banl

pg- An order published by Gen. Banks
at New Orleans, forbids rebel prisoners
paroled by Gen. Grant from wearing rebel
uniforms from being employed by COR
porations, public or private and ''from
engaging in any kind Of business" This,
the World thinks, is an excellent plan for
breeding outlaws and vagabonds by pre-
venting them from earning their own liv-
ing; and, in view of their poverty of
wardrobe, of filling the streets of the city
"with gentlemen in the Arkansas uniform
of straw hat and pair of spurs" .s

STAMPEDE AMONG THE CHILDREN GOn Sunday,
about IL O'Clock, little son of John S. Dallam,
ESQ.,, about three years old, left town for tramp,
and succeeded in reaching point on the Abing-
don road, about three miles distant from his
home. where, fortunately, lady arrested his
further progress, and had him returned to his
parents. That he is a good pedestrian there can
be no mistake, for all this occurred almost before
his absence was noticed. -n.
About the same time little daughter of Mr..
Hugh Rogers, about the same age, started for a
walk in another direction and was not overtaken
until she had proceeded about one mile and a
half on her journey. l .,. ..

GENERAL SHERMAN.-We see by our exchanges
that almost the entire Democratic press of Ohio
bear at their masthead the name of this distin-
guished soldier for Governor. While this is COM
plimentary to General Sherman, it is no less
creditable to the Democracy of the Buckeye
State. They, in common with their party
throughout the country, feel the necessity, in
the present crisis, of selecting for places of high
public trust none but men of known honesty,
moderation, ability and tried patriotism and
this character of a man General Sherman has
shown himself TO be.

A Triano Mar Fight.

While Gen. Sherman is much abused
by one set Of men, there is still a third
party who are unsparing of his assail-
ants. The Cincinnati Gazette, super
loyal paper, comes forward to the rescue of
the favorite officer, at the same time pour
ing full broadside into General Halleck.
The editor says:
"However much people may object to
some of the terms of Gen. Sherman's ar
rangement with Johnston, we think none
will deny that Gen. Halleck's dispatches
and orders concerning the armistice were
uncalled for, discourteous and coarse No
one believes that Gen. Halleck has any
feelings that could be disturbed by the
features of the arrangement that the peo-
pie objected to. He had not this excuse
for his heat. But he sprang with alacri-
ty to his official duty of executioner of
generals, in order to prevent pride, by re.
minding them that they are mortal.
eff there is any prominent general who
has not come under the treatment of this
official reOiler Of generals, we cannot now
think of his name; we hope we have
none bad enough to be approved by him."
According to this view, the idea of the
Washington functionary is to keep down
military pride.

BsS Republican speakers, like Schenek
and Bingham, would not know how to
make a speech if they had not Vallandig-
ham to talk about. One would think to
hear them that NJ. Ya!landigham was the
only opponent they had. They harp upon
some sayings of his before the cummence-
mcnt of the war not near uS extreme as the
sayings of Chase, Stanton, Holt aud other
Republicans, and then occupy their time
in denunciation. The following closing re-
marks Of Gen. Morgan, ut Elyria, hits all
such demagOguery right on the flank"
An unfair attempt has been made by a
portion of the Republican press to prcju-
dice the action of the people by attacks on
certain gentlemen who arc not candidates. =

The internal Revenue derived from direct
taxation, this year, will reach the enormous
sum Of over two hundred aud ninety mil
lions OF dollars!
Who foots the bill?
Manufacturers paya certain per cent, tax
upon all goods manufactured By them,
which per cent they add to the price Of the
goods, thus clearing themselves entirely
they do not foot the bill. Retailers buy
the goods. with the per cent. added, and
add thereto the taxes with which they are
charged--sO by the time the consumer gets
hold Of them, he has to pay the taxes of
every individual through whose hands the
goods pass.
The consumers pay the taxes.
Who are the principal consumers of the
country?

Rich men invest their money in these
bonds, and while they draw 7-30 interest
per annum on their money, they pay no
tax.
Who pays the interest on the Bonds?
Men of moderate mcans-Farmers and
Mechanics.
The withdraw of the capital invested in

Their salaries are paid from the hard earn

Their labors could be performed By State

This oppressive system Of taxation was

moderate means bear its burdens, while the
capitalists are exempt, thus creating an ar

The Democratic party propose to make
every man pay his proportion of the expen-

Allegheny Cattle Market.

AALEdHENY CRY, September 10, 1865
CATTLE-The market for cattle was quite
active and firm this week, and with slight
failing off in the supply. Prices, as com
pared with last week, show a slight advance.
Good cattle, particularly, were in active re-
quest, even at the advance, and this grade
of stock sold at from It to 7Ic. and limit
ed number of extra brought &c. The de-
mand for stock cattle, although not overly
active, was fully up to the supply, and the
best of these on sale were taken freely at st
to 81 to SIC.
SHEEP-Markct steady and only moder-
atey active, the demand being rather re-
stricted, but the supply was li6ht. One lot
averaging 79 pounds was wholesale at Sc,
and several punches were retailed at prices
ranging from 81 to Gle p fb gross, as to
quality and condition. Lambs remain
about as last quoted, but few offered, and
apparently not many wanted.
HoGs-Very firm, the supply being very
light through the demand is limited, being
restricted altogether to supplying the retail
trade. Fair to good averages are being re-
tailed at IL to Be {, tb gross.

Reflect.

Every thoughtful man should carefully
reflect upon the influence which his vote
viii give TO principles, before casting his
ballot on the'sccOnd Tuesday of October.
While We have not a shadow of doubt as
to the ultimate designs of the Republicans,
we occasionally hear moderate Republican
say that he is opposed to Negro Suffrage,
and il he thought the Republican party IA
yOred this odiOus doctrine he would vote
the Democratic ticket.
We ask every honest, candid men to re-
fleet on the fact that nearly all the Republi-
can papers in the State favor negro suffrage
many of them boldly aud freely; that in
great many places they have instructed can
didatcs for State Senate and House to vote
in favor Of erosing the word white" from
the Constitution of Ohio; that while part Of
their candidates are out squarely for negro
suffrage, their candidate for Governor plays
fast and loose'-at 0berlin he satisfies
them that he favors it, and when in more
conservative attitudes he puts the question
off with ambiguous words, susceptible of
more than one meaning. Let the candid
man reflect and he will soon see that to vote
the Republican ticket is to give your lfu-
eace for Negro Suffrage. The Democracy,
on the other hand, stute their position on
this and every other question, plainly, and
their nohla cnpdid1tn for Eovarnor iS ctrono
in his denunciation of negro suffrage.
Many favor equal taxation, and are oppo-
scd to legalized monied aristocracy, but on
account Of old preiudices, don like to vote
with the Democracy, Friem, don't let
prejudice induce you to do wrong action.
Vote for principle.

press onward to victory

To subserve base partisan purposes, the
men who, though evil and through good re-

According to their defamcrs, the Copper
heads did not and do not possess one re-
d,sem1ing virtue. There are some things
the "Copperheads" have not done. They
have not coined money out of the lives and
blood Of their lellow-citizens; they have not
grown rich on shoddy contracts, and made
money sof OF rotten meat furnished the ar
my; they have not spccnlated and pecula-
ted on the funds of the Treasury and the
funds Of the soldiers; they have not invest
ed their money in United States Bonds and
