JuDGE CHASE AND BIsHoP SIMPSON On
THE SUFFRAGE QUSTIOH.-A meeting Of
the ladies' centenary association was
hcld ut St. Pants Methodist church in
New York. Monday evening, At which
Chief Justice Chase presided and made
the opening speech, lie spoke in earn
est praise OF the patriotism OF the Meth
odist church and i,a devotion to the
cause Of human freedom, and said
it must not cease its efforts until the
emancipated slaves are educated and
made equal in political rights with
white citizens. Bishop Simpson fol-
lowed the chief justice, aud took still
broader ground. He said there were
other evils to be driven from the land,
Of which incompetence is chief, and he
did not believe these evils would be eff
feCtually dealt with until the ballot was
placed in the hands of women. He
commended that the women Of the Coun-
try are intelligent enough and pure
enough to share in the legislation, and
that until they do We can never have the
best administration Of government.
The meeting being composed chiefly OF
ladies' the bishops plea in their behalf
was received with great applause.
The Bishop is no radical womau's
rights man. and the above account OF
his remarks may lead to misapprehen-
sion of their real import. He was ad-
dressing ladies assembled for i Chris
tan and benevolent purpose, and only
intended to pay just tribute to their
womauly virtues and patriotism. There
can be little question of the purity OF
the ballot in their hands. But the policy
or propriety Of their exercising the cleo,
tive franchise, is quite another thing.

We understand that the soldiers of Cook

the Offices should be Elrmcd out II year In ad-
vancs by the Court House barnaclcs, throu-s.
the stolIdity md indifference Of the people.
The time has come for new deal. The men
who fought down the rebellion, and upon

upon crushing 1t out. In due time he will
Law his hands on tho other free cities, Drc-
men, Hamburg and Lubcc. Whatever they
do, or fail to do, be will flud reasons for OBJ
lltcrating their freedom, and merging them
In the common tysanny Of Prussia. It
makes little difference what becomes Of Han
over, uessc aud Nassau. In exchanging one
dcspotssm for another they may possibly be
the gamers, rs an onlsrgcd dcspotism Is
usually more tolerab1e to tho people than

can compensate Frankfort for the loss Of

Hitherto the sympathies Of Amcrleaus
have been generally on the side Of Prussia.
We hare looked upon her rs the champion Of
German nationality, and have siaed With her
In her combat with tho foul fcnd Of Austria.
But her unwarrantable proceedings towards
Frankfort will cause universal rcvulsion Of

one to indulge the hope that France, o.

who has dared to pcrpetratc such high

A Sample OF Their Loyalty.

Tho Petersburg (Va.) Inder, one OF the
ablest papers in the South, has the following
article upon the Philadelphia Address, which ]
We commend to our readers. It will be seen
thst treason Is manifest in every line. We
commend 1t also to the doughlaced Republi-
cans who affiliate with the South:
If VIC annlyze the Declaration, I'VE will
find that It contains but one affirmation Of
political principle about which there wns
anJ dispute In the South. This IL in the fol-
lowing language:
right to withdraw from, Tho Onion, or to exclude,
through their action In CongTese OF Otherwise.
Rny other Stnte OF States from the Union. The
pas1 e ests States is perpetual and cannot be
Is the South prepared to admit this. The
question is not whether this Is the true the
ory on which the Union VAS founded;
whether this is the wiser and safer interpre-
better ground on which to rest the public
liberties: whether the rights of States or
| the franchises OF individuals can best be
maintained with this view Of the powers Of
| the States but whether We Will submit to
this as the future policy Of the Government.
that practically ne must submit to this: We
are powerless to resist It. The only further
question fs, whether 1t Is = matter Of such
transcendant consequence to our liberties

In Government recognizing this doctrine
We presume there can be no doubt what

ttpt II, and rot etes on any Of these until nia
had si0nifed that acceptance.
But the case is NOW ss,.ttcred. The f,llur
to admit this theory Of our Government vii
+ amount to the perpetual exclusion of'th
South from the benefits Of the Union, an'
cannot AFFORD any counteryailing advantage
Nor tlots at all bind the eonsctesees Of tn

unless first proposed in Congress and aftc

of destroying thcni aud the Government the
had cEented-without any proposal in Coz

We conclude, therefore, that there Is rotl
, ing Of priacifde in the Declaration OF the Phi

great injustice to my Impressions Of the state
Of affnirs in North Caroiina.
I did not ''report' that 'the reconstructed

part Of any respectable person In Raleigh TO
act lfsconrtconsly toward Union officers; for
mysclf 4nye to acknowledge many ucts OF
the most ob1lging kindness.
It is my belief, too, that the freed people
Of all classes are as Kindly treated In Central
North Curolina as they are In any portion OF
the late slave States.
With reference to the Union people who
once Ind slaves before the war, no trntlful

The eyes Of the whole country arc fixed
upon New York As tho pivot Of the fall cam
paisn. If Andrew johnson, with the help OF
Thurlow Weed and Ills wagon load Of rich
men, can scducc that State from her alle-
glance 10 the Union party, le will In oil
probability feel encouraged to adopt coercivc
measures to Introduce the rebels into Con-
grcse. II he can succeed in clcct1ns sutll-
cient number Of Coppcrhcads to the Fortieth
Congress to constitute, In combination with
the rebel element, majority ofthc body, it
is morally certain that hc will resort TO Fio-
lencc 10 accomplish Ills ends. While this
policy, If attempted, can only result IN his
own impeachment and execution as trattor,
it Is none lhe less to be avoided and prevent
cd by the determined action Of loyal men at
the ballot box. The signs Of the times poiut
uncrringly to New York US the theatre Of the
most desperate efforts Of tie john
son party this fall. Reckoning upon
New York city, with its million Of inliahi-
tauss, lis venat press, Its pro-slavcry sympa~
thies, and its countless grog shops, as Ger"
tain to give an overwhelming majority for

| tho ba1cful in1ucncc of the "Old Man." and
| the money lie eau squeeze ont Of merchants
engaged in the Southern trade, to corrupt
| the rural districts i; despairing Of making any
impression upon the stalwart loyalty Of the
Northwcst-Mr. johnson ind Mr., Seward
have evidently concentrated their 1re on the
Empirc State. The progress Of the cam
paign In Nav York will, therefore, he
watched with peculiar interest and atten
tion by the whole country
We hare full confidence in the patriotism
and unpurchasable honesty Of the State o
| New York. If the fostering; sore on the low
| Ct end Of Manhattan Island co,la be annexed
to New Jersey or South Carolina, tho Stat,
| Of New York would be US int:4llibly tr1t
| to The Union a. Massachusetts, or Iowa
Every political contest ttiure resolves itsci
iuto the question whether the rural district
can give a Union majority large enough, Il
overcome the Copperhcad maturity Of til
city. Last year they did give such IL majority
with h27 ,657 votcs 10 spare, notwithstanding til
Democrats had stolen u Republican to hca
their ticket, aud lad given him unia
platform to stand Oh. We do not- belicv
that this majority can he overcome. W
nevertheless appeal TO our friends in til
Empire State to act in the emergency a
though the pcrmauence Of peace dcpcn0e
upon their individual cxcrtlons. They ca
make q new civil war impossible By mercl
holding their OWL they can strike such tcrre
into tho heart Of Andrew Johnson and Ii
followers that the work Of rcconstructi0
will proceed smoothly and peacefully 10

of liberty and loyalty.
