NO HOPE FOR CLxHHEHs.

The New York Herald in view of the Yer
mont and Maine elections says:-
''The Democrats of Pennsylvania, in nomi
mating Hester Clymer, q peace man during
the war, against General Geary, one Of the
most distinguished Union soldiers of the war,
did for the radicals the very best thing that
could be done. No one suppoSes that there
as ghost of chance for Clymer against
Geary, and no political philosopher has yet
risen to show that while Clymer cannot save
himself he viii strengthen the Congressional
ticket in any part Of Pennsylvania. In short,
he is dead weight upon his party
These frank confessions by the Copper
head papers of New York, of facts that are
patent to all the world, outside of Pennsyl
vania, are exceedingly embarrassing to our
Copperhead cotemporaries. They still at
tempt, once in while, to make people be-
lieve that their is hope for Clymer in order to
keep their courage up, but it won't do; the
case is hopeless, as the Herald states it. The
second Tuesday of October, win open the
eyes of the blindest to vivid realization of
the fact.

Henry Ward Beecher on the Members
Of the late Loyal Philadelphia
Convention

A Committee of the loyal Southern Con-
vention, was selected to follow in the wake of
Andrew Johnson and wipe out any impress
sions which he might make in regard to the
effectiveness of his policy. These gentlemen
visited New York last week, on their way
West, and were given splendid entertainments.
A number addressed the people at Cooper
Institute, while others spoke in Plymouth
(Beeeher's) church. Mr.. Beecher has been
claimed by the Copperhead party as a convert
to their notions. While speeches were be-
ing made by the loyalists, called mulattoes
and negroes by the Copperheads, the follow
ing dispatch was received from Mr.. Beecher,
which we hope the Sazette will publish:
PEEEsKlLL, N. Y, Sept II, 1866.
TO Ed'card Cory and George B, Lincoln!
regret that health viii not allow me to
pay my grateful respects to those Southern
heroic men, who stood faithful among the
taithless in bloody trial. God bless them.
Their country honors them--history viii per-
petnate their names among the noble. With
all my heart | welcome them to Plymouth
Church, and give them the right hand of fel.

men be appointed to attend to all who are

What COppe3he0ds Thought White
the Rebellion Lasted They
RO1C say B0ICEfy!

Let it be said to the eternal infamy of the
party, which is now struggling with the
widest desperation, to seize the reigns of
Government over the heads of those who
overwhelmed and conquered its enemies,
that it has applied every epithet to the 10y
al men who assembled in Philadelphia, on
the 3rd instant, to express their grievances.
These men stood firm to the old flag, when
treason ran mad, and for this they are stig-
matized with every vile eognomen, to which
those who have been schoolod in the choice
est billingsgate can give utterance. Why is
this Because these men resisted traitors,
and are determined that they shall not be
preferred to those that were true to their
country, they are thus reviled and malign
ed. Copperheads speak out now what they
thought during the rebellion.

,NOW, WHAT NEWS on the RIAbTO:o

The Gazette cast about it last week for
"Glorious News - to offset the news from

ed, " since which time there has been no

was no Congressionalelection, nothing but a

came Colorado T. which was claimed for

had l08 majority, and that the Board of
cangassers gave him the certificate of cleo
ton This is our last effort Is it salts

.sEQUALITY FOR WHITE
HEN .ss

With characteristic mendacity as well as
the stupidity naturally belonging to its IA
yorite long cared, braying brother, the Ga
sette of last week utters one of its Negro
Equality" howls over our article of the pre-
vious week under the caption Of Equality
for white men" 1t is an easy thing for the
Gazette to cry abolition lies, "humbug,
&C., as long as it keeps no account of truth;
but it fails to show that single statement
made in our article is untrue, and for a very
good reason, it could not do IL
IT is entirely, utterly false that the So1ttt-
eT7p States hare greater pr0p0TtiOllate repre-
seRtattoH IN Congress than the other States,
on account Of tBTee,Jffths Of their negroes be
ing counted IN the GppOrtionmlent. THEY
HAVE LESS PROPORTI0NATE REP
PRESENTATION FOR THEIR NEGROES
THAN PENNSYLVANIA HAS.--Gdzette.
Here is statement deliberately manufac-
tured by the Gazette, made to appear as if
coming from our article and then pronounc-
ed to be utterly false, which we viii not de-
ny, as it is far from being the only thing ap-
pearing in the Gazette, which we believe to
be false, and the Gazette ought to be aliudge
of its own productions But we deny that
any such statement appeared in our article
What we did say was that A Southern
slave driver, before the rebellion, possessed
about twice as much power in the Govern
ment as a Northern white man by reason of
the three-ffths representation of the ne
groos. !"
And this we now propose to substantiate
by facts and figures gathered from the cen
sus reports and which we dare the Gozete
to publish or deny
In 1860 South Carolina, with population
Of 291, 1888 white persons and 400, ,2S4 ne
groes, had seven representatives in Congress,
or representative for every As, ,564 white
persons in the State; at the same time
Pennsylvania had twenty-five representa-
tiEes with population off, 849, ,266 making
one representative to every 1880 of her
white population, or making each white per
son in South Carolina equal to more than
q white persons in Pennsylvania. This
preponderance was all the result Of the three
ffths representation of the slaves, as every
intelligent citizen knows, whether the editor
Of the Gazette does or not The appor-
tionment of representatives on the basis of
the census of 1860, still retaining the three
ffths representation of the slaves, would
have given South Carolina but four repre-
s2ntatiYes, Or one toeach Y, SAT other white
population, while Pennsylvania was given "a
representatives, or one to each l27, 900 of
her white population, and would still have
left to each South Carolina slave holder
about twice as much power in the govern
ment Of the nation as white man in Penn.
sylVania The Gazette again saws
"BiR hree:Jftgbg of their colored popula-
ton are counted in their apportonment Of

as we'll as ourselves, to apologize for the APP
pearance on our first page last week, of an
article entitled "a Conservative Prayer. !"
Our aim has always been to exclude from our

tendency, in short anything that could posi-
bly, offend the moral sense of the purtst and
best, and it was with regret that we found our

whence, accidentally becoming mixedwith our

covered when it was too late to remedy the
