The IssueqP PIainIy Defined.

One of the conceded oracles of the Jaco-
bin party, is Beast Butler. He has been
sent for from Massachusetts to interpret
ard expOund the doctrine to the men of
Ohio. Here is what he teaches. We
find it in his Boston speech, as reported
in the Ne~ York Tribune of Friday, the l4th
inst:
ave spnrn the dogma that This is Il
white-faced mans Government [Cheers. I
We are now to look to the heart for COLOR
not the face. [Cheers,l We insist that it
Is the loyal mans Government, whether he.
be White or black. We look TO the color Of
theheaTt, and not to that of the face, to de-
termipe opr political friends or enemies,--,
Renewed cheers {" ...,..,..., .,, ,.J.
This, then, if Buffers party succeeds, is
to be a Government of the mixed races,
like those of Mexico and South America
Our Congress is to be made of negroes from
the South, and of men like Butler from the
North. In all the branches of the service
there will be mixture of the colors-in'
theapmy and in the navy, in the Cabinet
and in the Senate, This may be regarded
as the official Jacobin programme.

from the New York Times, Repub.l
The COurAe OF the RadicnIs.

Congress. we take it, must be held
responsible for the consequences of its
own action. And we must also assume that
the Radical majority resolved upon their
action with full knowledge of
its effect. Fhether they Gpow, honest
lh that the South shall not be admitted, or
couple an initiation TO enter 10Th conditions
WHICH THEY KNOW WILL NOT BE ACCEPr-
ND matters comparatively Httleg The result
is the same. The South is excluded. And
it is excluded deliberately, Intentionally,
and apparently indefinitely, by the course
of the Radicals in regard to it. "a,
The wrong is more flagrdnt because gra-
tuitous. II the exclusion of Southern
Representatives proceeded from airigid in-
terpretation of constitutional provisions,
no objection could be fairly raised against
bit. Not only, however. is it not warranted
by the Constitution, but it isdirectly at va.
rance with the requirements Of the Oonsti-
tuition upon the subject. TokeepOut South
e,nmenbers, the Radicals discard. the COpStitu-
tton, eUdde tpe dlTg II imposes Onthens, ana IN
SiSt upon StipatdtioRS for eolich that GnStT1niieat
giUes no authority. Hoto absurd, ltllea, is the
plea that the failure TO restore the Union is at,
trlbutqble 10 the South, not TO the Radicals?
The South has for months stood at the
door of Oongressasking for admission, SUBJ
and the test of individual fitness. Had
Congress opened its door, subject to
these conditions, and these only, Its
position would have been vindicated. Its
readiness to complete the restoration of
the Union would have been demon
strated, and no complaint could
have been urged because OF the
exclusion of non QUALIFIED Representa-
tives. The onhs of Justification would
have, rested upon the constituencies Z by
whpm;the unfit men had been elected. But
Congress surrendered this vantage grotnd
WHEN it refused to entertain the applications
of the South, or to consider the individual
eligibility of those who appeared lin the
name Of the South, AND WHEN CONGRESS
ADOPTED TESTS FRAMED FOR THE oCCA-
sIoH,i IN DEFIANCE OF S0UTfERN FEELINGS
AND CONVICTIONS, 1T EXCLUDED THE SOUTH
AS ERFEcrUALLY, AS REALLY, AS THOUGH
III HAD IN TERMS DECREED EXCLUSION. h ),

The following are the conclusians come
TO by me:
i am satisfied that the mass Of the thinking
men Of THE SOUTH accept the present situation
Ct affairs IN GOOD FAITH. The questions
which have heretofore divided the Senti-
ments of the people of the two sections
SLAVERY AND STATE RIGHTS, or the right of
State to secede from the Union-they re- a
gard as hdrtRg been settled FOREVER by the
highest trtbandt-drBlS that nan can resort to.
was pleased to learn from the leading
men whom met that they not only accept
ed the decision arrived at as final, but that
now the smoke of battle has cleared away,
and time has been given for reflection, that
this decision has been a fortunate one for
the whole country, they receiving the like
benefits from it with thoseowho opposed
them in the fieldand in the Cabinet. .l, -f
My observations led me to the conclusion
that the citizens of the Southern States are
aFJiOhs 10 retla1t 10 Self-gOUe,rnent WITHIN
THE UNION as soon as possible; Uthat
while recOnstIucting they want aud
require protection from the Govern
ment; that they are in earnest in loishipg TO
do tetat they think is required by the Gouern-
nleHH not hlrniltdttng TO them as citizens, an
that II such a course was pointed out they
would pursue IL in good faith. IL is 10 be re-
gretted that there can not be a greater c0mn,inJ

The NEeettnar last VVeSl \ esI,nt Z

Notwithstanding the incessant rain for
days previous, the Democracy and consere
vative men OF the county met in the Court
House, on Wednesday, to the number OF
several hundred, to hear the issues that are
now of such vast Importance to the future
of this country. -1ff1'rgfg glTbq-rr71
Hon. Geo. II. Pendleton had withdrawn
his appointment, but too late to inform our
people of the fact, hut his place was well
supplied by Il. b. JEshelnali, of The OHIO
STATESMAN, who for nearly two hours held
his audience, while he proved the safe and
good government in the past of the >DGmoc-
racy their faith to regulated and Consti-
tutioDal Governments; their present com
servatiYe position in which the best men of
the Republican party concur with them, as
was shown by the Convention at Philadel-
phia, and the best Soldiers and Sailors
Of the Union as shown at the recent
Cleveland Convention, and by the
position OF Grant, Sherman, &C.; and
with this he contrasted the usurpations
ofCongress, their disregard of constitution
al Limitation; their readiness TO force civil
war on the nation; their determination to
force negro suffrage on the States North
and South, and asked the people to Judge
between them by their votes. Mr.. Il. is a.
graceful, torcible and effective speaker.
states his propositions with clearness, and.
well Interests his audience.
He was followed in a brief and vigorous
address by Hon. VIM. Mungen, our nomi-
nee tor Congress, who entered briefly into
a statement of his future course in Com
gress, when elected, as he expected to be.
His remarks were well received by his au-
dience, and the meeting was well attended,
and attentive, and lett gratited at the
strong reasons urged tor the better and
healthier state OF things promised by the
present state of National aft Iirs, and the
awakening of the minds Of the people to
the due care of the pubic safety.
