Reconstruction.

However much delay there may be in
reconstruction among the rebels of the
Southern States, there can be no COM
plant of their copperhead friends at the
North on that ground They have already
commenced with a will in the work of
''reorganizing," as they term it, the old
democratic party. Their wire pullers are
visiting every portion of the country, and
at work principally among returned SOL
diers who formerly voted the democratic
ticket, arguing to them that the war is
now over and there is now no longer a
necessity for voting the Union ticket =
They appeal to every principle of party
pride and party prejudice, to prevail upon
the men who have aided in conquering a
peace in spite of their opposition at home,
with the hope of securing their support
In recognizing the old democratic party
upon purely copperhead basis. How
far they will succeed remains to be seen.
We cannot yet believe, however, that the
soldiers who have done their full duty on
the battle field, will now turn around and
he p 10 place in power men who at home
have been worse enemies to them than
the rebels of the South they have been
fighting There may be some exceptions,
but the mass c. our soldiers who have
been true to the old dag, we believe will
prove true to the principles for which they
have been fighting, and let their copper
head enemies see that they have not for
gotten them, and that whatever he the fate
of the Old democratic party, its sins shall
not be chargabe unto them

In Kentucky, Tennessee and Maryland,
persons who have been in the rebel army
or have aided the rebellion by eontribu-
tons of money or otherwise, are disfran-
chised-in the two first named States by
legislative enactment, and In the latter by
provision in the Constitution. These ex-
illusions from the privileges of the ballot
have caused considerable squirming among
those affected, and in Kentucky and Ten
nessee, whore elections are now pending,
a disposition has beer manifested to dis
regard the suffrage acts and receive the
votes of the excluded classes despite the
prohibition. These designs have, howev-
er, been nipped in the bud by the timely
and decided action of the Governors of
the two States, both of whom have issued
a proclamation announcing their deter
mination to rigidly enforce the law ex-
Guiding rebels from the polls and to re-
fuse to recognize any officer elected by IL
legal votes. In Tennessee, where the
mostserious trouble was apprehended, the
President has assured Gov. BrownloW he
will be fullyssustained in carrying out the
law, and Gen. Thomas has been INSTRUCT
ed to furnish any military force that may
be necessary to its enforcement. The an
nouncementha has considerably cooled down
the excluded rebels, and they will hardly
attempt to carry out their design of taking
forcible possession of the polls-but the
action on the part Of the President pro-
dueing this result is made the subject of
bitter denunciation on the part of those
Northern papers whose sympathies were
heartily with the rebels in the late contest
and who regard it an outrage to inhict any
punishment for the commission of trea-
son.

The BARE FACT that Great Britain ha-
bitually advocates and Systematically
urges upon America the adoption of free
trade policy, should be sufficient to arouse
u suspicion of its wisdom. The advice
of our trans-AtIantic-k insmen has never
been very valuable. and it has become pc
culiarly distasteful and obnoxious since
the rebellion disclosed their real animus.
Trade interests govern English policy
When she held us as subject colonies,
she crippled and controlled our commerce
and industrial interests In the most bar
barous and ~tyranieal manner, sending to
us slaves, whom we did not want, simply
that her s~hipowners might gain large prof
its by an internal traffic; forbidding us to
establish manufactures, which interfered
with her home establishments; and limit
ing our markets abroad by despotie laws.
She then refused to US free trade, that
would have benefited us, and is anxious
to have US establish a free trade that
would enrich her Observation-Disclosures
at the expense Of our own. America is
too strong and vigorous to require the
teachings of any other nation; but, if she
did need a mentor, she could not select a
more dangerous and selfish one than Eng
land.-PhiIadelphia Press.

mn mn IosE TREIR LIVES on A WAGER.

A day or two ago, We mentioned the
fact of the killing of two men at Irving
ton, onthe Hudson River Railway. Their
names have not yet been aseertalned, but
it seems now that one was a day. laborer
and the other a mechanic; that they had
been drinking freely, and over their cups
had made a wager that the one would, re-
main longer on the track than the other,
when the train was approaching. When
they heard the cars, they linked arms and
walked toward the on-coming locomotive.
Death was before them, but neither at
tempted to unloose his hold orstep aside:
Again and again the engineer whistled
and ordered the brakes put down, but 1t
was too late the locomotive struck the
men. and killed them instantly. The poor
fellows had nerve, certainly. which, fem
ployed nationally, might have produced
creditable results but it appears strange
that they could have been so bereft of
reason as to throw their lives away on a
silly and trivial wager.-N 7. Tribune.

In the battles of AverysborO and Ben

To sum up: the SD has participated In

The election that comes off In Kentucky
next Monday is for State Treasurer, Con
gressmen, and members of the State Leg
isIafure. Much interest attaches to the
contest from the fact that the ratification
of the constitutional amendment abolish
ing slavery is made a direct issue in elect
ing members of the Legislature. The
Democracy as a party are arrayed against
the measure, and it encounters the deter
minined opposition o. the mass of those d.
rectly interested in slavery. Hopes are
entertained that the friends of the amend
ment will triumph, but the chances are
against them. The Congressional candi-
dates on one side are unconditional
Union-on the other, Conservative, a des-
ignation which embraces all who in any
degree sympathise with the rebellion and
mourn its overthrow.

Co. RRonan-A ranort from Al

Gov. BRoUGH.-A report from the
telegraph Office yesterday afternoon, APP
parently authentic, announced the death
of Gov. Brough athis residence in Ceve-
land, and it was so published in a portion
of our edition. It appears that the re-
port was premature, but his condition is
extremely critical, and there is but slight
probability of his recovery. The State
Journal of this Friday) morning says
There was u report on the street, yester-
day, that Gov. Broughwas dead, which we
are happy to say was unfounded. Night
before last a surgical operation was per-
formed ON one of the Governors feet and
one hand, which left him much reduced.
A telegram, received last evening from DIR.
Barr, stated that yesterday morning surgi-
cal interference with his foot and hand Twas
again found necessary, but hat he was ra-
fional and sustained the operation nobIy.
At ten O'Clock last night a dispatch was
received stating that the Governors situa-
ton is critical, but that immediate danger
is passed.

LETTER FROM GEN. Cox.-Messrs. e.
FL. Fairehild and Samuel Plumb. resi-
dents of Oberlin, Lorain county, address
ed a letter a few days since to Gen. j.. d.
Cox. Union nominee for Governor, ask
ing his views on the question of the Inn
mediate extension Of the right of suffrage
to the blacks lately released from slavery
in the rebel States He had already an
nounced his acceptance of the nomina-
ton and endorsement Of the platform;
and by established usage in such cases
was under no obligation to notice the cat
echising epistles with which uneasy and
oficious gentlemen might see fit to assail
him. The question of the future status
of the freedmen is not in issue before the
people Of Ohio at the coming election, or
one upon which her Governor will be
called to act in his Official capaeity-is
n about which there is great diversity
of opinion. and upon which comparative
" few persons have yet come to a salts
factory conclusion-and, like many other
questions pertaining to the reorganization
of the States lately in rebellion, is beset
with difficulties that render It anything
but easy of solution. All reasonable
men are willing to await the progress Of
time and the logic of events" to work out
the intricate problem, rather than make
haste to settle upon a policy or jump at
conclusions that may possibly prove err
roneous. The letter is also couched in
very temperate language, and contains
indirect threats of opposition in case a
response in accordance with their views
ts not speedily forthcoming-which alone
would have afforded sufficient ground for
declining to notice it. But, having no
opinions to. conceal and being Wiling his
in~terrogators should have the benefit of
his views, he did not hesitate to respond,
and that promptly; and his response is
one that by its candor, frankness and
manly spirit, will challenge general APP
probation, whether or not the reader hap
pens to concur in the views expressed
We shall give the correspondence entire
in our next issue, when those of our
readers who have o already seen it, will
have the opportunity Of forming their
own conclusions as to its merits.
