RADICAL MORALS IN WAsHINGToN.-Tb
Washington correspondent of the New York
Watchman, religious journal, thus depicts
the state of morals at the National CAPITOL
under Republican auspices @
"Licentiousness and drunkenness are the
prominent features of Washington life this
season. Members of Congress spend their
afternoons and evenings in billiard and driak-
ing saloons, and their nights in houses of i'll
fame or assignation. Five-sevenths of the
Republican members of Congress spend their
nights in licentious dissipation. While a
majority of the Democratic members are
working for the good of the country, the op-
position, relying on its majority goes in for
a good time so called. Washington, under
Abolition auspices, is the most licentious,
depraved city in the Union. Drinking sa-
looms, gambling houses, houses of prostitu-
ton and assignation are about the Capitol as
side-shows are about circus. Harlots and
niggers occupy the galleries, smile on their
pet members on the floor, and throw kisses
to the God and morality representatives of
honest constituencies. ago
Sad, sad indeed, but every word true. bet
US hope that the next election will send here
different class of men,"

SoUND TALK.-We intend, says the La
Crosse Democrat, to stab away at the :spublic
credit II that is what you call this damna-
bic injustice to the working men of America
who are now compelled to support the gov.
ernment-to pay all the taxes and to pay in
terest on the bonds held by thieves, minions,
tools and right-hand swindlers of the late adj
ministration. We fail to see why one man
should be rich and pay no taxes, and poor
man over the way support his own family in
poverty, and then sell his children to poverty
and labor to support the exempted Bond
Holder. If you folks don't want Bonds re-
pudiated, tax them as other property. You
paid your money-you take your choice !

A WARN1NG.-At the great Democratic
meeting which was held at Reading, Penn,
recently, says the Crisis, the Hon. Montgom-
cry Blair predicted that if the Radicals car
ried the October election the result would be
the establishment of two Presidents and two
Congresses. He asserted that it was the in
tention of the Radicals to impeach President
johnson, in that event, and turn him out !;
whilst the Democratic members would unite
and form Congress with the regularly elect
ed members from the South. He warned his
hearers that they were on the eve of another
civil war, the battle field Of which would be
in the North, whilst the South would remain
a unit

IMPENETRABLE ARMoR.--In a late letter
John Mitchell, the celebrated Irish exile, now
in Paris, thus tells of a newly invented bull
let-proof armor:
The neede-gun has met its match-a bullet
proof clothing for soldiers. At the Belgian TTr
National, or Volunteer Shooting Ground, the thing
was exhibited for the first time by its inventor a
NJ. Bernard, and in the most satisfactory manner,
namely: by standing fire himself at one hundred
yards, having previously shown that he wore moth,
ing under his cloak but a shirt and vest. A conf
cal bullet struck him in the breast it, fattened
itself and fell down at his feet he picked it up
and showed it to the spectators. But he would
suffer nobody to examine the texture of his new
cloth, not having yet secured his patent. His
head and face were covered with steel car and
the cloak reached to the ground.

MOLLY BAWN ASHORE.

u
BY JAMES DONNELLY.
Down by bonny mountain side,
Mid iimpid streamIets clear
Where heather bells in virgin pride,
So charmingly appear;
Bright Phoebus sinking to the West,
Shed radiant bliss all DER, s
When first clasped to this fond breast 49,
My Molly Bawn ashore.
Her golden tresses brightly shone
Adown each rosy cheek;
Her smile would melt heart of stone,
She look'd so pure and meek.
The gentle voice, of my only choice, f
SO thrilPd my heart all DER, a
Sweet rapture stole, around my soul,
Tor Molly Bawn ashore
Her graceful form and stately mien
Unequald are, I'm sure;
She's nobler than the Saxon queen,
Aud fifty times more pure. t
U Mother Immaculate and mild!
Whose holy name she bore,
Still shield from pain thy spotless child,
My Molly Bawn Asthore. fFsg SEsfe
A wand'rer in distant cline,
Far Ger the briny tide
I'm waiting for the promised time,
To claim my queenly bride,
When in my bleeding native land,
The screen" is up once more,
I'll go to win the stainless hand,
OF Molly Bawn Asthore.

A NOBLE REsPoNsE.-Louis Shafer, Esq,
the Democratic candidate for Congress in the
18th District, Ohio, recently sent $lOO to ex-
Gov. Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, for the Or
phan Asylum of Richmond. The Radicals
of Canton heard of it, and raised hue and
cry about "Copperheads" sending money to
rebels, whereupon Mr.. Shafer came out and
acknowledged that he was the guilty party,
in published card, in which he states:
g The only regret | have in the matter is, that
my pecuniary abilities did not permit me to in
crease the amount to one million instead OF one
hundred dollars. In conclusion, I would merely
add, that have never voluntarily contributed a
tarthing, nor ever spoke one encouraging word in
favor of either of our two late abolition rebeons
one headed by John Brown-the other by Abra-
ham Lincoln"

RADICAL PRESCRIPTION.

Many OF our people do not fully appreciate
the internal spirit of prescription which ac-
tuates the leading Radicals against the whole
Southern people. Their real scheme is to
absolutely deprive that people of all consti-
tutional rights, to disfranchise them, to leave
them without real representation, to place
them completely at the mercy of the few
Radicals in the South and under the blight
ing rule of Puritanism, and to forever cut off
from them all means or hope of release from,
or amelioration of their PROSTATE, cruel con-
dition. The following OATH which is exact
ed of every person named for Congressional
honors in the South, is so sweeping as to
render it barely possible for any person of
sufficient ability or integrity to become a
candidates:
do soemnly swear (or afirm) that have nev.
er voluntarily borne arms against the United
States since have been citizen thereof that
have voluntarily given no aid, cOuntenance, coun>
sci or encouragement to persons engaged in arm ed
hostility thereto that have neither sought nor
accepted nor attempted to exercise the function of
any Office whatever under any authority or pre-
tended authority in hostility to the United States
that have not yielded voluntary support to any
pretended government, authority, power or con-
stituton within the United States, hostile or in
imical thereto.
But, as if this outrageous oath were not
enough to exclude the people from the choice
of the men they preferred to represent them,
it is proclaimed that those who have taken
the oath, if not acceptable to the Radicals,
shall derive no benefit therefrom, but shall,
for having taken the oath, be considered as
perjurers and untitled for Office. Mr. Bing-
ham, one of the most influential Radicals in
Congress, in speaking of the new Constitu-
tional Amendment IN connection with the
Radical plan Of reconstruction, used the fol-
lowing language:
We say, by this amendment, never, while that
Constitution stands, shall any Of these men, who
clothed themselves with perjury as with a gar
ment, breaking the oaths they took before God to
protect and defend the Constitution of the United
States, by going out and wdging war for four
years never shall they hold any office of honor
or profit either IN the Republic, in any of the
States of the Republic.
Let this rule prevail and of what use is it !
for the people of the South, or their chosen,
leading men, to subscribe to any Federal
oath, when to do SO, only earns them the
name of perjurers from their radical, tyran-
nical rulers? The real intention of the
Radicals is that none but themselves shall
hold Office in and rule the States of the South.
This they already do by terms of the Freed
mans Bureau Act, and, under the Constitu-
tional Amendment, they propose to do SO by
their Interpretation of its powers. And this
they will do until either the Democracy or
revolution shall hurl them from power.
