TO the loyal people of the whole Union. e

Great Britain, or thwart the efforts of her enemies
that the precedent established by Englan in re-
cogniziug rebels as helligerents should either be
rejected by the United States, and the justice

of Battles, or should be accepted and followed to
its full extent; that no compromise between the
two courses is consistent with the honor of great
nation. Ah u ta ssts- sl

RESOLVED, That the ruinous legislation and in
some counties the wholesale robbery of county and
Territorial funds by the Democratic officials in this
Territory, thereby closing the public schools, and
turning out of the publichospitals the unfortunate

county scrip, should meet the unqualified condem-
nation of every honest man.
RESOLVED, That in the appointment Of Federal
officers for the Territories preference ought to be
given to the citizens thereof over those Of other
States, who have little or no knowledge of their
local affairs, and are not identified with tn e inter
ests Of the Territories.

A minister in Maine, few days before the
election, prayed that every man. who voted
the Democratic ticket might have his right
arm withered. The prayer was quite worthy
the pulpit Of the day. Why don't Democrats
move in the work OF establishing some CHRIs-
TiAN church in our midst7 Is it the inten-
tion to abandon Christianity to the imbecili--
~, brutality and lust of the ministry that
now diSgraces our land?

states-that a British official in this country
who occupies very exalted position, stated
not long since to a distinguished United
States general, whose Irish sympafhies are
very strong, thatone of the leaders of Fen1an-
ism in New York supplied him (the official
aforesaid) with regular and minute infnrma-
ton regarding the plans and projects of the

The Schemes OF the Radicals nj
Washington.

Ihe facts gwen IN our SPECIAL
Washington letter, which we publish
this morning, will furnish our readers
something of an idea of the measures
which the radicals intend to resort to
for the purpose of retaining power.
It seems that the mpeachmentscheme
has not been abandoned, but simply
postponed until the meeting of the
fortieth Congress, for the reason that
the majority of the Senate refuse to
cooperate in movement Of the
kind. They therefore propose, now,
to carry on q system of pretended in
vestigation, and spread before the
public such garbled statements rs
will, in their opinion, convince the
Senate of the necessity of getting rid
of the President While these COM
mittees are at work, they propose to
have laws that will effectually tie the
hands of the President, and divest
him of all the power possible. The
so-called Southern loyalists are in
session there, furnishing one-sided
statements in regard to the action Of
the Southern people, for the purpose
of encouraging the radicals, and thus
keeping them up to a working point.
The scheme especially advocated and
urged upon Congress by this faction,
shows to what extent the extreme men
of the country are ready to push their
plans to obtain power There is, in
all this, especially on the part Of the
radical leaders, a boldness, and, we
might add, a rashness, that is some
what astonishing. They make no
secret OF their plans, but proclaim
them on all occasions, with that as
surance that carries with it perfect
confidence, in their own minds, of
success.
II is probable that, were it not for
the opposition Of such men as Sher-
man, Harris and Fessenden, in the
Senate, who refuse to do the bidding
of the extreme men of the party, the
most extraordinary revolutionary
measures would be resortcd to. The
real object of all this is, beyond any
doubt, the control Of the next Pre-
sidential election, and the exclusion
Of the Southern States from partici-
pating in that election. If, with all
Of these schemes, we escape another
conflict, it will be almost q miracle
It will not be for the want of deter
mination on che part of the radical
chiefs. Tie hope Of the country, at
present, rests with the good sense of
the Senate, which may refuse to lend
itself to the revolutionary schemes Of
the leaders of the House.

RADICAL SCHEMES. is an
evident improvement in the tone of
public sentiment at the metropolis.
More moderate views have not, in
deed, been developed by the leading
radical Republicans, but they have
been compelled to change their de-
ceitful tactics with respect to the
South, while those statesmen Of the
constitutional party who had almost
"despaired of the Republic" have
been of late encouraged to hope that
we have seen the worst, and may now
reasonably expect a speedy return of
the Northern mind to something like
common sense. 1t is now clear
enough that the revolutionary mea-
sures proposed by individual mem
bers of either House of Congress
looking towards disruption of the
Union by converting the ten unrep-
resented States into provinces, to be
governed by alien satraps, or that
other mode of upsetting the existing
General Government by turning
those States over to the tender mer-
cies of the blacks, and this handful
of mercenary allies-a sure method
of producing internecine war-are
now admitted to be impracticable
under the forms of the existing Go.
yernmcnt
The rejected Southern members
will not be admitted to seats in Con-
gress, on any terms, until after the
Presidential election. The contem-
plated overthrow Of the Government,
1T is seen, cannot be accomplished hy
mere acts of Congress during time
of profound peace, and while honest
Judges occupy seats on the Supreme
Court bench. The excitement OF
Presidential election, therefore, and
q determination by the House to ex-
clude the electoral votes of ten soye
reign States, is relied upon as the
propitious moment to force upon the
country another war.

IMPARTIAL SUFFRAGE. The Louis
vile Democrat throws out the follow
ing excellent suggestions upon a
subject Of public interest:
We have suggested again and again
that the North take her proportion Of
the American citizens Of African de-
scent, and locate them where justice
will be done them. Governor Worth,
of North Carol AZ, has made the same
suggestion. It is the best plan of
reconstruction we know Of. The in
terest of this class is the desidoratum,
and this is the way to secure it.
In that case, the civil rights bill,
impartial suffrage, or anything else,
will do. Such measure will at least
operate equally on all the States. But
the main point is, that the American
citizen of color will be amongst his
equals and friends, who will take care
of him, and they can never be salts
fed to leave him down amongst these
Southern sinners. They feel that he
is unsafe, and must have freedmen s
bureaus to take care of him, and
spend q great deal of money to do it.
Besides, it will be no wrong to the
darkies. They will be glad to go
where they are more appreciated. In
deed, is it not singular that the ne
groes do not go North? The radical
papers tell us about outrages that the
negroes suffer in the Southern States.
These reports keep up a constant ex-
element in the radical mind. It is
an evil SO easily remedied, that we
don't see why the policy we suggest
is not adopted.
If they want the negro to vote, let
him go on North and vote in vel
come. He can't vote worse than the
majority of white people there.
We can't expect Democrats North
to agree to this; but no matter, if
the radicals agree, they can carry the
measure, and, in that way, the South
will be suited. They will be loyal on
that point.

THIRTY LINES OF COM MON
sENsE.-Eeader, having glanced over the
editorials and the news in this journal YOU
turn to the advertisements, saying to your
self, "Thcse are published by the writer's
to serve their OWN interests" Perhaps so.
But it is no less truo that 1t concerns you,.
interests to read these ulrty lines If YOU
are healthy, it is presumed you wish to
continue so. If sick, of course you desire
to be relieved. In either case, it is impor-
tant to you to know that HOSTETTER'S
BITTERS arc the safest, surest and best
tonic and Alternative ever advertised in any
country. This is a period of the year when
the strongest need an invigorant, for the
oppressive heat drains the system of
strength faster than the most potent and
vigorous organization can recruit it, There
fore, as Il prcservative Of hcalth-as a pro-
lection against the devitalizing action OF
heat and tho malaria it produces-you
| should sustain the good constitution and
sound stamina with which nature has
blessed you with this peerless Vegetable
| Tonic.
1t can scarcely be necessary to urge upon
tho weak and ailing the Importance of ac-
quiring by safe means the strength which
unassisted nature donies them. All who
are thus circumstanced are invited to give
the Bittcrs trial. Before they have taken
the elixir three days, in conformity with
the directions, they will acknowledge with
gratitude its genial operation. They will
find that it inparts mental as we'll as nerv-
Gus energy, and regulates all the internal
functions admirably. This is the expe-
rience of the debilitated and depressed,
and in making these statements the pro,
prietors only echo the language of innu-
meraDle testimonials. Dec IS t6

from that most distressing disease IN its
severer forms, dyspepsia, and his condition
during the past winter was at times such as
to occasion great concern to his friends. lie
became much better, however, as Spring
opened, and left home few days since on
an extended business tour to New York,
New Haven, Boston and other places
While on his return he was taken down
again at Concord, n H. His case was at
once considered alarming, and his wife and
children were sent for and joined him there
on Monday. This morning dispatch from
DIR. Thayer, who had been sent for and was
in attendance on him, announced his death
at Z A. NJ. As a lawyer, insurance agent,

and successful busIness) bank Director
