The speaker here retired amidst great
applause and three cheers for the Hon.
John Hickman. In the morning, the
nameof Wayne McVeigh was mention
edin connection with FIickman's as one
of thespeakers of the day, but for some
reason he failed to make his appearance.
There can no longer be any doubt but
that the Republican party is commit
ted to negro suffrage and equality, at
least in this country; for you will rec
ollect that in the Press of Friday, Sept.
Ii, 1866, Mr.. Hickman, in letter in an
swer to one from many of the leading
Republicans of West Chester, ''announ-
ces himself a Radical" and gives his
"vicWs upon the great questions of the
times" The letter to Mr.. Hickman
concludes in these words: ''We have
heard them expressed q. e. your views
too frequently and strongly to leave US
in any doubt as to their character, but
we wish to give them publicity, as your
many friends value them hiehly.n y
This letter is signed by DR.. Wilmer
Worthington, Republican candidate for
theState Senatein thisdistrict; J.Smith

County Committee; Addison May, VIM
Darlington, prominent lawyer and
great Anti-Aiason; Washington Town
send, member Of the Bar; f. B.
Moore, editor OF the -4naerico7l Repa5-
Lcoa, and David Mecoukey, a wealthy
banker. They all fully and unreserv-
edly endorse Mr.. Hickman's views, ac-
cording to their own statement, so that
further comment by me is rendered I'M
necessary. Ourreaders may see to what
d depth Of degradation and shame per-
SOILS Of supposed respectability and
character will descend to further ambi-
tious projects and low party ends.

At Radical meeting in New York,
last week, John Cochran said, ''that
those before him who had been mus
tered out of service were now called
upon once more to prepare to take up
the musket for the maintenance those
principles for which they had fought
for four years"
The speaker was loudly applauded
by the audience, his Warlike strains ev-
identity touching a sympathetic chord
in the breast Of his hearers. When he
exclaimed: "Woe, woe betide that peo-
pie which forgets its debt of gratitude
to the negro race" cheers and applause
greeted the sentiment. The concluding
portion of his remarks was to the effect
that the service rendered to the country
bynegroes during the war entitled them
to the right of suffrage.
Gen. Barlow, the radical candidate
for Secretary Of the State of New York,
also declared in favor Of negro suffrage,
and demanded that the Republican par
ty should come square up TO that work,
Horace Greeley addressed the meet
ing, and said: He wanted a Govern
ment under which all loyal men, re-
gardless of color, should have equal
rights. He was going TO fight it out on
that line, and he hoped all true Amer
leans would take the same stand. Mr..
Greeley was loudly applauded.
\ series Of resolutions were read and
adopted. They We're essentially a rep
etition Of the Syracuse platform, with
the addition of one in favor of negro
suffrage.

CASH FOR THE BLACK SOLDIER.
Promises for the White Soldier.
$500 Extra Bounty for the Black
SIOO Extra bounty for the White Soldier.

Congress, in 1866, voted the black
soldier $500 for extra bounty, and ap-
propriated the money to pay it.
The white veteran gets 500 extra
bounty, and Congress appropriated NO
MONEY to pay it. $4,000 EXTRA
PAY for Congressman, in cash: no
money for the white soldier. Seven
millions IN CASH, for the Frcedmen's
Bureau, and no money for the white
soldier
No white soldier gets more than 500
as extra bounty. Every negro soldier
gets $500 extra bounty.
Many Of the white soldiers served
three years. None Of the negroes ser
we'd more than two years.
GEARY Is FOR CONGRESS AND

CLYMER Is tfor- tie President, the
COarelatio1e and the White man.
Geary calls his fellow soldiers, "Shys-

pital Bummers."

deny the Right of Voting to the Col

GEN. BUTLER, who, we believe, in
tends to stump Pennsylvania for Gen.
Geary, indicated his preference for ne
gro suffrage, last week in this emphatic
manner:
"Had the negro been armed, the re-
suit would have been far different.
We armed him with the musket when
he was fit to use it; shall lce not arm
him 2cith the 6dJlot' There is preju-
dice against the negro on the question
of labor. When the labor-saving ma
chinery was introduced into England,
the laboring classes rose and destroyed
it, because they thought it would take
away the work that brought them
bread.
Suppose we were only looking for
expediency. The States must come
back. We want loyal constituency
in those States. Where will they come
from? As a matter Of self-protection, as
q matter Of economy, Heaegro m,tst hare

House of st. Joseph, from which they
came.
The Surgeon General at Frederick,
high-toned gentleman, and anative of
Philadelphia, hearing of the manner in
which the Sisters of Charity had been
treated by Geary, and fearing the dam
aging effect which such brutal conduct
would have upon the many thousands
of Catholic soldiers who were fighting
in the front ranks Of the army, at once
despatchedan orderly to Gen. Banks, at
headquarters near Poolsville, with III let
ter rc0ntainingastatem ofthe conduct
Of General Geary, which letter will be
found officially recorded on the books of
the Medical Director. The Adiutant af-
ter riding all night, returned to Freder-
ick withan imperative order, command
ing General Geary to escort in person and
place safely on the Southern side Of the
Potomac the said Sisters Of Charity, and
to give to them every assistance to aid
them in the discharge Of their sacred
mission of mercy. With what grace he
could afterhis brutal conduct, Geary did
escort them beyond the Potomac after
having endeavored to set himself up as
superior to the Commander in-Chief.
Any soldier who was under Geary at
Point of Rocks at the time alluded to
will remember his treatment Of these
Sisters Of Charity. He VIII not dare to
deny one word Of the above statement.
If he should the Medical Director and
the Sisters will testify to the entire
truthfulness Of what is here written.
The above facts have been furnished
in the shape in which they appear, as
wehave stated, yOneofthe Wealthiest,
|. most intelligent and honorable men in
the City of Frederick. They show what
a mean and miserable bigot John W.
Geary Is. We hope cur cotemporaries
will give the statement a wide circula-
ton.
