Gen. Lee for President.

The Mobile Register has the name of the rebel
General Robert E. Lee at the head of its columns
for President in 1868. The Register says there
purpose of elevating " the model hero of the
5Confederacy ;" to this high office. We notice
that in every instance the parties mentioned as
being prominent in this movement are loud in
their praises of Andrew johnson. With eleven
States fresh from rebellion and the aid of the
rebel party in Maryland, Kentucky and Della
ware, there will be little difficulty in securing
he nomination of this rebel general by the Dem
ocratc convention. OF course the Northern wing
cannot offer any reasonable objection, for they
nave lauded Lee to the skies and have endeavor-
ed to immortaize him as the embodiment of all
The Christian virtues and noble qualities ever
possessed by man. A Christian gentleman and
traitor A Christian gentleman, who allowed
thousands of patriots to starve and rot on Belle
Isle and other places under his eyes This pros
pect must be charming one to the Democracy
if the North. They have sugar-coateded Lee, and
n return for this kindness the Southern Democ-
sicy give him to them az a reconstruction pill,
aoping it will work out great results. Won't
we have charming government when Lee is
made President and such patriots as Orr, and
Stephens, and Wigfall and Vallandigham are
lis Cabinet officers The election Of John Nor
rissey and Fernando Wood to Congress is an ev-
dence of the progress Of the Democratic party ;
ct it take another step in the same direction by
ominating the g model hero y as candidate

The Democracy and Negro Suffrage.

The Chicago Times and the Boston Post, both
leading Democratic organs, are still advocating
negro suffrage, and trying to induce other
journals to" swing round the circle y and join
them, but thus far they have met with only par
tial success. Democrats, or what is left of them,
are divided upon this question now SO strongly
urged by the Times and Post. But while many
of the papers in the interest of the Democratic
party are hesitating, they yet all talk about
progressive party" If this declaration means
anything, and any differences may be drawn
from it, it would seem that some new plank - is
needed in the Democratic platform just at this
time. The Democracy are wont to pride them
selves upon their ancient ancestry, and their
rigid adherence to the principles Of their fathers
and the question is whether they can afford to
throw away their prestige by becoming g pro-
gressive." To become " progressive, I" in the
sense that many of these papers understand it,
is to espouse. the cause of negro suffrage and to
do this will destroy the beautiful theory upon
which the temple of Democracy is built, and to
bring it down in a mass of ruins. A cardinal
principle of Democracy is that this is g a white
mans government aud to admit the right
negroes to vote, in any form, is to repudate tina
dogma, and then comes negro equality" with
all Its fearful catalogue of woes, SO often and S,
graphically portrayed by Democratic organs and
orators. The Democracy are in fearful dem
ma. What, with party battered, beaten, over
thrown, demoralized and crushed by the weigh
OF terrible defeat, its very existence put in ex
tretne peril, and now to have the last chief corner
stone undermined, and the occupants and own
ers OF the house divided in opinion as to whether
to take the stone out entirely the Democracy are
in great trouble 1t will be noticed that the me-
gro is always prominent in Democratic platforms.
Heretofore the party has firmly opposed negro
suffrage, but now it is divided one faction ad
vocating the right and expediency Of voting The
negro, the other protesting against it. Without
this sable individual, Democracy could no more
exist than we could have day without the sum-
The negro is the bottom and top, inside and out
side, centre and circumference of modern Democ-
racy, and if this pillar should be knocked out Of
the Democratic temple it must certainly fall
The discipline of this party has always been
something wonderful, but the signs are that. il

This party cannot remain in its present ccndi

geg- There was but one form of government
that exactly suited the requirements of the rebel
lious classes of the South-that administered by
jefferson Davis. 1t " robbed the cradle and the
grave - to fill up armies that were destined to
inevitable defeat. 1t impoverished everybody
except few favored spectators by Selling the
entire industrial produc of successive years apd
every species of available wealth and giving in
exchange only worthless Confederate notes and
bonds 1t obiterated State lines to enforce the
arbitrary and destructive edicts issued at Rich
mond and continued its disgraceful career until
it had stained itself with every crime, and inflict
ed upon the people it swayed every imaginable
misery This was the beau ideal of Southern
goverment-the political organization pinned for
by Southern politicians, the only one thing ex-
actly suited to their refined tastes 1t was right
for Davis to take the whole of a cotton crop it
is wrong for US tax it three cents pound when it
sells readily for thirty. 1t was right for Davis
to confscate the property of every Union man..
it is wrong for us to enforce our laws against y
single rebel. 1t was right for Davis, in the in
terest of slavery to illegally assume and to ac-
lively exercise autocratic rule over the whole
South-it was wrong for US, in the interest Of
freedom, to exercise wise discretion in the work
OF reconstruction. Thus runs the creed of the
rebel and the Copperhead.

@g> We take the following, says an exchange
from the Houston (Texas) Journal, conserva-
tive paper supporting the policy of President
JOHNSON. The "thieves and vagabonds " allud-
ed to are those Union men of Maryland who sup
ported the government during the war and saved
the State from ruin. Reconstruction is progress
ing finely in Texas. Read
g The returns from " my Maryland" indicate
that the city Of Monuments has been carried by
a large majority by the Conservatives in spite of
the unfairness Of the Radical rule and unjust reg
istration law. All the Conservative candidates
for congress in the State have been elected, and
majority has been gained in the State Legisla-
ture, which secures the election of Gov. Swami
to the o. S. Senate, the repeal of the registry law
amend ment to the State Constitution, and the
righting OF all the wrongs under which the State
has groaned for some years past.
So old Maryland has redeemed herself, and we
are glad to see that her people have at last risen
TO shake off the thieves and vagabonds who
have ruled her during the war We want the
old State to be worthy OF her dead sons who died
fighting in our cause. The State that gave birth
to McKim, Wootten, Trimble, Tilghman, Walk
er, Gilmore, Murray, and the brave boys of the
old Maryland line should never be stained with
the faint and curse of Radicalism.

him in the latter capacity, and says
fear that the time is not far distant when the

it is far better that our country should be ruled
