The Congressional and Legislative Contest.
The Democrats do not expect or hope TO
carry their State ticket. They gave that up
long ago. Clymer is too big load. His
political record is too terrible, black, and
damaging. He cannot carry even his own
party strength Thousands of War Demo-
Gratis utterly refuse to support him. The
soldiers unanimously discard him They feel,
as General Grant says, chat it is an insult to
ask item to vote tor him. He was foisted
upon the party by those blind foolish, stub
born CoppeIhead leaders who have "run the
machine" ever since 1860. He stands no
more chance OF election than Vallandgham
did in running tor Governor in Ohio. The
Democratic leaders know this, and hence
their real fight is now being made upon mem
bers of the Legislature an6 upon Represen-
tatives in Congress in the close districts. To
carry these they will trade off Clymer or
anybody else on The state ticket 1t be-
hooves Union men, therefore, to be on their
guard. This fight has reference to great
national questions OF the utmost Importance
We are now threatened with the violent
disruption of the popular branch OF the Gov
ernment. In the train of this menacing
usurpation loom up all the horrors of in
testine strife and bloody civil war. Let our
efforts, therefore, be directed to where the
real danger lies. The safety, peace, aud
honor of the country can only be secured by
maintaining the supremacy OF the Union
par y in Congress. Let no Union man, there
tore, be drawn aside from the trne issue. We
must elect our Congressman and we must
elect our Legislature.

leave, my inidel friend courteougly irl,
vited me to call on him whoneverit should
suit my convenience. THIS I generally
did, as came to this appointment through
out the year. As the year neared its
close thought I would call and offer paw.

is now regularly naturalized citizen, and
may be met with at all hours Of the day
or night. He is a mean looking, yellow

up with persons of very opposite char
acters. We have seen him arm and arm
with Messrs. Sugar and Lemon. When
SO supported he always gets into hot wa
ter, and is very quarrelsome. All three
of them go into the streets, punching
esery body they meet, staggering on some
aud knocking down others. No better
evidence can be given of its effects Of
"cvil communication than this; for Su-
gar and Lemon, when out of w hiskey S IL
luence, are very respectable and harmless
people. Sugar is particularly sweet-tem-
peredr but when Whiskey gets hold of him
all his sweetness melts away. The habits
of Whiskey are all low, and though some
Of them keep up secret intercourse with
him, yet he is not publicly recognized by
the members of "Good Society,"" Mon.
sieur Brandy, on the other hand, is more
genteel, and may occasionally be encoun.
tered at the tables OF persons of condi-
tion. he sat opposite to US yesterday,
and behaved very becomingly, probably
because the company tool. scarcely any
notice of him. His complexion is ruddy
and high colored, and his general manner
spirited and agreeable. Brandy is a
Frenchman by birth and belongs to The
ancient family of DeCogniac. 1t is to be
lamented that person with such gentle
manly capacities should ever mingle with
people of such bad odor as Whiskey and
Rum, This Rum is a decided ruflian.
His very looks condemn him: His face
is of dark yellow hue, and from the
unpleasant efHuvia which proceeded from
him, we suspect he is sadly unclean in
his habits, aad has an antipathy to water,
aud yet he is monstroua coXcomb, and
is always admiriug his own appearance
in glass.
From these descriptions our readers
may be able to discover and avoid these
suspicious characters. All connection
with them is disreputable, and great in
jury to health, purse and fame must at
tend the slightest intimacy.-Mississip-
