WILL THEY JOIN THE UNION PARTY.

The Democracy are in peck of trouble over
Gen. Cox letter. His views on the negro suf-
frage question coincide 50 exactly with what
they approved IN Gen. Sherman a few weeks
since that they are much straitened for hole
to crawl out at The plan of Gen. Sherman,
which agrees exactly with Gen. Cox's, was re-
ceived by the Democratic press, at the time, as
''sound doctrine, - "good as Democrats want, 3"
&C. Now as Gen Sherman fully sustains Gen.
Cox, and supports him for Governor, will not a
large number of the Democratic party do like
wise? But we give notice that the Union par
ty of this county will receive no addition to its
ranks from the Democrats, except from its very
best men. Those fellows who thought the
North large enough, - and wanted 10 ''let the

mate candidates for County officers on Satur-
urday, September oh, 1865. Among other
things, the call invites "All citizens, without
former distinction of party, who are opposed to
negro suffrage and equality &C., topartici-
pate in the selection of delegates. Can it be
possible that Mr.. BoTEFUR does not know the
history of his own party? and that his oPPosi-
tion to negro suffrage is in direct contravention
of the practices of the party? If he does not,
we will enlighten him little
The Democratic party gave the negroes in
New York the right TO vote. True, they re-
quired that every negro should be worth $3.50
TO entitle him to the elective franchise, but the
number of negro voters in that State is about
5000. Martin Van Buren was President of
the Convention that allowed them TO vote, and
the Democratic party afterwards elected him
President of the United States
The Democratic party made the negro vo-
ter in Maine, with the same qualifications as
white men. Va
The Democratic party made the negro vo-
ter in Massachusetts,, and gave him equal po-
litical rights with the whites.
The Democratic party gave the negro the
elective franchise in New Hampshire.
But Mr. BoTEFUR talks about negro equality.
Who repealed the laws of Ohio which required
negroes to give bonds and security before set
Ting in the State? The Democratic party,
Who made mulattoes legal voters in
Ohio2 A Democratic Supreme Court, of which
Reuben Wood was Chief Justice. The same
party afterwards elected Wood Governor.
Who married negro woman of pure African
blood, and by her had mulatto children. Rich
ard NJ johnson, good Democrat who was af-
terwards run by the Democratic party for Vice
President of the United States Ifhe had sue
ceeded in being elected, and the President had
died, johnson would have become President
and his negro wife mistress of the White House.
Now, Mr.. ''BoTHUR, Chairman, don't you
think you are agoing back" on the 'fathers" of
your party pretty strong when you thus ar
raign them for what was Democracy in the ear
ly days? You know that neither the Union
party nor any party in Ohio have resolved in
favor of "negro sufage and equality" Then
why do you stoop 10 such dirty little dema-
gogue language as Is contained in your call2-
Do you think that the voters of our county are
so ignorant or lost TO patriotism as TO be turned
aside from from sustaining Union and Liberty
by such cunning aud craft as is evinced in
your article. If you do, you are destined to
woful awakening ON the 10th of October.

Al article entitled 'The troops TO FIRST enter
Richmond" appears in The Richmond Times Of the
2sth inst, giving the Gath Army Corps the credit
of having first catered Richmond, which is mis-
take and needs correction, although the article con-
tradicts itself ia several instances.
Il is stated in the article in question that the
nickel line OF the oath corps advanced until II
reached the stream Just outside Of Richmond, when
il was halted 10y three New York cavalrymen, who
had orders 10 allow one to enter the city until
the Commanding General came up.
| would ask, il Lieut.. PreSoott's picket line were
the first troops to enter Richmond, how II happen.
ed that three cayalrymen were on post, and stopped
them, outside
IL also says that after halt Of about ten min-
utes, Lieut. Prescott, with his men, entered the
CITY, and proceeded at donble-quick by the most
direct route 10 the Capitol, and arrived there JuS
as the flag ,caS be Rg raised Orer the building.

city, aud the flag was being raised as they came
up. who raised il Certainly no citizen would
claim the honor Of first raising the old flag over

The writer Of the aforementioned article ad
mits that Lieut.. PreScott's troops were at th'
bridge outside Of the city when Gen. Wild anC
staff rode up and as was also al the bridge wher
the General rode up, and saw the advance OF th'

entered the sutlcr establishment OF. John Dutrow,
Franklin street, and after some Obstreperous con-
duct, insulted the clerk in attendance by pro.
nouncing him I'D Yankee son OF a b-h."
Mr.. q. Conner, the expsr Government agent, who
happened to be present, ordered the man into the
custody of the guard, and be was taken to the Of
fee of the Provost Marshal, who committed him to
the Libby. Mr.. Connor has done the Government
invaluable service since the occupation of the city.
He was eight months prisoner in Castle Thunder
upon the charge of being spy, and report says he
was to have been hung Friday last, but the flight
Of the Government" brought him his liberty,
saved him from an ignominious death, and now he
is doing the country some service by bringing to
arrest dangerous parties, and inmical to the Gov
eminent, whose status he had obtained while
prisoner, by the extraordinary tact, energy and
secrecy with which he has acted his part through
out, melting out justice to ALL but doing injustice
to none knowingly.

PRESIDENT JOHNSON AND THE BRITISH

PRESIDENT JOHNSON AND THE BRITISH
MINISTER.
Tie telegraph has given the set speeches which
passed between the President and the new British
Minister, but the following account OF the inter
view, communicated by the Washington correspon-
dent Of The Cincinnati Gazette, is more interesting
aud suggestive
Sir Frederick Bruce's interview with President
johnson to day was ss informal and as undplomatc
as President Lincoln himself could have made it.
This new minister made his appearance with all his
stars and decorations on, presented has credentials,
and formally read his speech. Mr.. johnson re-
Piled, saying that he glad TO see him, and TO
welcome TO the Capital representative of Great
Britain, and then added "But, sir, am not much
used to the Diplomatic tOrmslities customary on
such occasions. Ny idea is simply that two great
nations ought to conduct their relations very much
as two neighbors who sincerely desire peace and
good fellowship between themselves would do, and
that the less mere formatieS about it the better"
al assure you, Mr.. President interrupted Sir
Frederick pointing to his uniform and decorations,
srhat should feel very much more at ease with
out these things than with them"
The remark SO thoroughly English, and at
the same time so consonant to American prejudice
against fuss aid feathers that the President and
Minister became friends at once, and sat down for
/ chat Sir Frederick asked about Sherman
President Johnson explained the position. "What
chance is there for Mr.. Davis, then ~ asked Sir
Frederick. "Oh, small particle still doubtless
his escape across the country" said the Pre- sdent
ssWen" replied tie Minister, in an inquring tone
81 should think that Mr.. Davis and few members
of his cabinet would probably find il well start
pretty soon" elf they know what is for their
own interest,"" responded the President rather
Qrmly, 'sthey had better lose no time about it,
S,The time has come" he added, ''when traitors
must be taught that they are criminals. The coun-
try has clearly made mp its mind on that point and
il can find no more earnest agent Of its will than
myself" There was then renewal OF the mutual
promise TO talk over any difficulties that might
arise between Great Britain and the United States
like two neighbors sincerely DESTROYS ofgood tenuls
with each other, and SO the interview ended.

MiLTriEY CRfrics.-The late war produced 10
the country countless numbers of military critics;
indeed, latterly, almost every civilian felt him.
self competent to discuss nd decide upon all mill.
tary move ments and the merits of the Generals on
either side in the great contest. Though the war
is over the critics for the most part remain, and
there being no further campaigning to explain and
date upon, the question which now engages their
acumen is to settle the respective ability Of the
military chi eftans who figured in the war. vol
ume made up of these criticisms would be curious
and amusing, if not instructive. The latest we
have heard is so unique that we cannot forbear to
put it on record Last week. at Fredericksburg,
number of citizens, having little else TO do, were
giving their views on things generally, and parti
cularly on the merits of Confederate Generals. A
countryman, whose whole knowledge Of military
matters may be summed up by stating that he had
heard all the guns at Fredericksburg, Cbancelors
Vile and the Wilderness, having obtained hear
ing, stated in most oracular manner, jackson
was the Aankngest General we ever had, but
Johnston was the most fallbackingest The re-
mark was accepted as the sense OF the company,
who at once dispersed.
