Andy johnson and Negro
Suffrage.

Our Democratic friends still per-
sist IN charging the great Union par
ty of the North with being in favor
Of negro suffrage and negro equali-
ty, although well aware that the
charge is ut terly false, and that no
such issue is before the American
people. We might well retort upon
the Copper Ohsonites by referring
them to a letter written by Andy
johnson to Gov. Sharkey, of Mis-
sissippi, on the 18th Of August, 1865,
in which lie said:
''If you could extend the elective
franchise to all persons of color who
can read the Constitution of the
United States in English and write
their names, and to all persons of
color who own real estate valued at
not less than two hundred and fifty
dollars, and pay taxes thereon, you
would set an example the other
States viii follow"
From the above it may safely be
said that in August, 1868, President
Johnson was in faver of negro suf-
frage, and it is his boast to- day that
he has not changed in the least the
principles he then held How then
can our Democratic friends, whe are
SO bitterly opposed to negro suffrage,
consistently support Andy Johnson,
who so early declared himself in its
favor?

~ The south seems inclined to
"go oacE upon her peace friends,
Valisad' CHAM, Wood, Ciymer Il Co.
She 70 beginning to see that such
sin~e IS injure, rather than advance,
n ;r cause at the North. The Ner-
folk Old Dominion says in this con-
nection:
''If this thing is to continue, we
shall urge the insertion of another
section in the proposed constitution
al amendment, putting it forever be-
yond the reach of any Northern
Democrat, of the Valiandigham and
Wood fraternity, TO hold an office

Government. 1t is enough 10 have
our throats cut by our enemies. with
out undergoing torture from our
prefessed friends.'
The Mississippi Clarion takes the
same view and says:
''New, no matter how we may
think about the matter, there is no
Disgusting the fact that this class of
men do us no good. The great mass
of the people North, indorsed the
war, and they certainly will not place
in Office men who remained North
and sympathized with the Confeder-
ate cause. We think they would
prefer a simen-pure "rebel" who
had used the musket until the day of
the Appomattox settlement. If the
Democracy North wish to aid the
Southern people, they will select for
Office Conservative man of the Jshn-
son stripe, who did not go abo1t the
country abusing the North and yet
avoiding the South when the strong
arm of every sympathizer was need
ed"
This is cold comfort to Northern
dough faces, who have sought to
curry favor with the South by base
submissions. Such men will be re-
spected by neither party, and their
record will each year become more
\ and more infamous.

DIED,

SMALL.-On the 18th inst, in Piqua. Ohio
HELEN, infant daughter OF Simon and TryphOsa
small, aged 10 months and 81 days.
These bereft parents so long residents Of CALI
polls, will receiye great sympathy from friend,
and acquaintance, in their irrepreavable loss ol
this most interesting and lovely babe ONLY
those who have passed under this same rod of be-.
reayement, can fully sympathize with them in
this dark hour OF sOrrOw, for all .their earthly
hopes were centred around this household joV
May he who tempers the wind toitbe shOrn lamb
pour the oil Of consolation into the wounded
hearts of its parents and let them feel that their
precious child Is not lost to them, only gone he
fore.
She Is dead and gone-a flower
Born and withered in an hour
Coldly lies the death frost now
On her little rounded brow;
And the seal Of darkness lies
Ever on her shrOutied eyes
She will never feel again
Touch Of human joy pain;
Never viii her once bright eyes
Open with glad surprise;
Nor the death frost leave her brow
All is over with her now.
Vacant now her cralled bed
As nest from whence hath fed
Some dear little bird whose wing
\ Rest from timid hutterings
I Thrown aside the childish rattle
Hushed for age the infant prattle-
Little broken words that could
BY none else be understood,
save the childleSS one that weeps
ger the grave where now she sleeps.
Closed her eyes and cold her brow
All is over with her now

@The great storm of Sunday af-
ternoon and evening, seems to have
swept over a wide extent of country.
At Chicago, in addition to the destruc-
ton of property, several persons were
killed and more injured. At St. Louis
the destruction was frightful. Build
ings seemed to be the sport of the
Storm King while his reign lasted, and
the whole city felt the effect of his
sway. AtLouisville the storm was not
quite so severe, but still did considera-
bic damage. At indianapolis, trees and
roofs of houses went careering through
the air, working mischief as they went.
At Greencastle, two brick stores were
blown down. Railroad trains were de-
layed by trees being blown across the
track; and the storm prevailed all over
the western part of the State.

tTelegssphic to Cincinnati Commercial.l
WAsHrseroS, Oct. %.

1t Is learned that for ten days past
the Administration has had under
careful consideration the solution of
the Mexican question. Another
consultation was held to-day, at
which Minister Campbell attended
At this writing it may be safelJkas
serte d that no conclusion has been
reached, which includes the.assump-
ton by this Government of the
French claims. The latter are vari-
ously estimated at from ene to two
hundred million of dollars.
The latest news from Macmillan
is in . dispatch via the cable, sent
to Europe on the 26th of Sept in
which the assurance is given to his
Legation 10 Paris that all is right
with him.
The Government, however, has
information which necessitates it as
q matter OF public policy to act
promptly in behalf Of the Liberal in
terest. The Mexican Legation here
feel confident, therefore, in view of
the course about to be adopted by
this Government, that Macmillan
will be out OF Mexico by New Years
day.
1t is telegraphed here from Annap-
oils that Governor Swami has taken
decided stand, and intends to pro-
ceed with the removal of the Police
Commissioners. This will be resist
ed with arms. A special to the
Chronical says that three thousand
armed men have reported to the
Mayor of Baltimore and the Pe
Commissioners that they are in rsadi
ness at g moments notice. Should
serious collision occur, it is be-
lieved here that United States troops
will then be forwarded to quell the
disturbance.

NThe population of the United
States in 1860, was, in round num-
bers, 100000. Statistics show
that the population increases at the
rate of thirty-five per centum every
ten years. At this rate of progress
our population in 1883 will reach
10000, 900, and in 1900 will exceed
100,000,000. The wealth of The
country is increasing in a like large
ratio. Can any one fail to see that
each year the country is becoming
mere and more able to meet the pay
ment of its national debt? while at
the same time that debt will be con-
stantly decreasing. We are bearing
the heaviest burden of taxation now.
Each year will make it lighter.

S 1t is rumored, that at the ap-
preaching election in Maryland, the
rebels will disregard the registry
voting Law of the State, and carry
the election by force, if they cannot
otherwise. They are using every ef-
fort to induce Gov. Swami to remove
the Police Commissioners of Balti
more who have control of the regis
try lists. 1t is even said, that Presi-
dent Johnson will send United States
troops into Baltimore to assist the
rebels in disregarding the registry
voting law of the State. These reb-
els, who are so jealous of any inter
ference en- the part of the general
government in the internal sffairs of
the late rebel States, are quite willing
that the military power of the gov
ernment should be used in ousting
Union men who now control the Dor
der State governments. Let the reb-
ell element of those States and Andy
johnson beware, for the North will,
as one man, stand by the original
Union meR of the border.
