From the Express.
1t is mistake to suppose that the radical
policy is directed so as to cripple and keep the
South only in a state Of vassalage; it is a mis-
take to suppose that If the States recently in
rebellion are to be converted into an Ireland or
a Hungary-as they assuredly will be, if the
President cannot be sustained-that the North
is not to experience its full share of pains and
penalties. The Puritan Oligarchy will make
slaves of us, and grind us to powder, as well as
those of our countrymen in the States beyond
the Potomac.
They will make slaye5 of us by imposing upon
MS new burdens of taxation and grind us to
powder by making every Worklngman LABOR
more hours per daY, in order t. fud the where
withal TO support those burdens. The Freed
mems Bureau is one Of their pet institutions,
and that will have to be maintained at cost OF
many millions per annum. And these millions
| must i'm due proportion come out OF the earn
| ings of the mechanic and laborlng man. The
| Bureau is the great Lying.in-Asylum for the
| maintenance of New England radical politicians,
| and preachers, and chaplalns, and negro-school
mlstresses, and through its lnstrumentanty so
many OF these people are FED ana clotheu az

TO see it abandoned, if il can In any way be

From the Tribune.
Tbose who we're seriously alarmed by the
treacbery of Andrew Johnson, and the forlorn
battalion of renegades that have followed him.
did not consider that before every great battle
EDWARDS desert the ranks, and that the loss OF
every doubtful man is equal to an accession OF
strength. 1t is far better that Mr.. Raymond
and General Dix should oppose the party than
demoralize it. Besides this there is in every
great organization an inert element which only
becomes active when confronted with apparent
danger; thus the more bitter the opposition, the
more gross the treachery to the Union party,
the more earnest and resolute 1t becomes. The
immense gains in Vermont and Maine we're
chiefly due to the combined action of the South,
the Copperheads, and the President, In arousing
the Indignation of the people.
For one vote that the President has taken
from us he has probably given twenty. None
have been quicker to see this than the Demo
Gratis, who counted largaly on his influence.
Connecticut was their first disappointment; but
they reflected that MIR. Johnson's influence had
scarcely time TO work. Vermont was their
second, but they were consoled by the melan-
choly conclusion that this was the star which
never sets. But from Maine they expected a
demonstration of the Presidents power; instead
il has shown his weakness. The Copperheads
are disguised, and already show their contempt
for the whole body Of Republican deserters. The
coldness of Mr.. Weeds reception at Albany was
very amusing; the Convention he went to
manage took the bit in its mouth, and threw the
bold rider over its head. If he ever comes
down, it will not be in the Union party. Gene
rol Dix, who had some chance of a nomination
up TO Monday night, was killed by the
Maine kilograms and was not even
cOmpimented with ballot. The whole crowd
of Republicans who went up to Albany TO pa
tronlze the Democrats have had the cut direct,
and if Weed had gone into the prize ring with
John Morrissey, he could nothave been knocked
down flatter than he is. The pugiist has been
too much for the politician. In Maine the
Democratic papers openly denounce the Presi,
dent as the cause of their defeat. The Portland
Advertiser is especially vindictive: I'VE say
unhesitatiDgly, Tor it is Gods truth, that the
timidity and feebleness of the Executive power
in this State over the sources and springs of
popular influence have alone caused our ,morti-
fying result in Maine, and the soonerlt is known
to the President, that he may spare other friends
in other States like fate, the BETTER" After
this ungrateful conduct of the party they
wanted to drive Raymond & Co. must feel
badly. They intended to place themselves at
the head of the Democracy, and find themselves
hanging on to its tail, like little boys to an
omnibus

There are two vital matters upon which the
President has never failed in any of his nu

Invariably urges upon his hearers the import
ance of peace to the national welfare, and he
also invariably urges upon them the Importance
of adhering to the Constitution in all their
political action. AS he said at st. Louis, he re-
CARDS himself as placed on the ramparts OF the
Constitution TO sound the alarm upon the ap-
proach of danger, and TO warn the people when
ever the citadel of liberty is in any way i'm
perilled. Then and there, as at other times anG
places, ne spoke with great earnestness upon
this subject, urging the people to 'cling to the

IL would be impossible to do the country o
greater service at this time than to impress it
efficiently with these two ideas There is q
spirit abroad adverse to the permanent peace of
injustice violence, and intolerance; of section
aism and radcalism. II 1t obtain control OF the
country the permanent maintenance of peace
and freedom is impossible. Republican govern
ment has its basis and IFS life IN an enlightened
popular reason, and IL cannot continue to exist
where the passions obtain the sway. IL is of
the highest importance, therefore, that these
passions of malice and war be allayed, and
that the people cultivate those habits and
that spirit of peace which have enabled us to
carry on successfully, and for so long a time
our democratic form of government. We
have had enough of war, as the President
so often reiterates, enough of its eXcitements
its sufferingy and its terrible results, and if
we would avoid them in the future we must
reDress their causes, and cultivate those things
that lead to peace. No less dangerous to our
national wellbeing is the disregard of our Con.
stltution which has been exhibited IN the
language and legislation of the radical party.
They seem to forget that the Constitution is not
only the exponent, but the bllwark of our
liberties, and that it is only by faithful adhe.
sion to it's provisions that our political institu-
tons can be sustained. We regard every man
who would for any purpose violate its terms, or
lower the public reverence for it, as an enemy
TO his country He is preparing the way for
disorder and anarchy and ultimately for des-
potism. II, therefore, the President, by travers-
ing the country, and calling public attention
earnestly to these things, has at the same time
mace himself liable to criticism on other
grounds, he has benefited the nation, though he
himself may suffer.

Letter From Virginia,

KANAwHA, G. H., Sept 10, 1866.
DEAR TRANsclIpr II received an
anxious letter from M anxious friend
some time since, who had read my
last letter 70 you, and begged to know
if l had fallen from grace, and why /
had written so disparagingly of the
negroes.

l did make an awful mistake. | for
got for the moment that correspon-
dent should write, "not the naked
truth, but what the people want to
believe" Had | written that the
blacks were industrious, intelligent,
&c., &c, though every word had been
lie, every morsel to my friend had
been sweet. But l did not wish, even
in my humble way, to feed that delu-
sion, which, / greatly fear, will only
be broken when too late to save. -
Since | am now on the stand, let me
briefly give my reasons for my former
statements; and | pledge you that |

There are more negroes in this
