A Stupendous .sF1zzie,"

The failure of political demonstration to
correspond with the preparations that have
been made for it, is commonly called q "fz.
zle." Fizzle is no name for the fsilure of
the southern 10y alist" exhibition in this city
yesterday. It was TO q fzzls what that is to
success.
The preparations made for the occasion
were prodigious. Committeeman so numar-
GUS that their names filled several newspaper
columns, labored assiduously for weeks TO in

ted far and wide, and the whole north west
was invited. urged to come and participate
in the great radical rebuke that was to be ad-
ministered in Chicago TO President johnson.
All the returned soldiers in the west were to
be here. In short, il was to be the greatest
and grandest demonstration of what one of
the speakers called radical loyalty" that
any American citizen ever witnessed.
What it was is briefly told. A procession
less than two squares in length, numbering
perhaps a thousand persons, and headed by
company of young men in red trowsers and
fancy jackets without any tails to them,
wsnded its silent and solemn way to Park
place, where were erected Eve platforms for
1ne southern 10y slists"to make speeches on.

took positions In front of three platforms
The other two were left wholly unoccupied,

and in customs, now exhibit themselves to the

their lives despised. And whyf
Far be il from us to turn away from any
man, or set of men, who, seeing the error OF
their ways, and heartily repenting OF past
misdeeds, seek to atone by doing repentant
works. We would welcome giadiy all who
have been our enemies, and enlist them in the
ranks of our friends when they manifest that
the spirit of their enmlty has been displaced
by spirit of friendship. But In the pres
emit case, nothing of the kind has taken place.

Know Nothing Love for the Irish.


We have fallen upon strange times 1t
seems according to the revelations of the pres
emit, that We have been all along mistaken in
supposing that the know-nothlngs were o.
posed 60 the church and to the Irish as a peo-
pie. We live In day of wonders, indeed,
when we behold active members of know
nothing lodges, politicians who were bon 10

ty-one years" now changing their tone, and
pretend to have been always the friends of
the foreign element, and sueing most indus
triously to the Irish Americans for votes to
keep them IN power. When it appeared 60
our short-sighted observation that Irish Amer
loans were denounced because they were
cstho lies, slaves of the Pope of Rome, and
that the church was denounced IS the i'm plac-
able and insldious enemy Of republican insti-
tutions, against which it Was the duty of ev-
cry citizen to guard himself and country, it
seems we were ell mistaken.
When, later, the press and the orators of
the radical party, which contains in its en-
brace the original know -nothings, employed
their pens and tongues in comparing the
Irish Americans TO the negro; in claiming
that the negro was the superior being, and in
repeating that claim in all manner OF often
sive and eliminating ways, and we felt nat
urslly indignant at the clemor against us, we
were, 1t appears, too hssty. These same men,
the original know-nothings and radical re-
puhiicans-now present themselves as the
dearest friends the Irish race and cause ever

FOrney ON Johnson;
What the 'sDeaG Duck" Said of the
President Year ago.

From the Troy Times, Sept. %, 1865.
Some politicians who have attempted to
bully President johnson, have found him
rather rough. but that is by no means his
general demeanor. 4 correspondent ''Occa-
sionaP') of the Philadelphia PaesS compares
him with his predecessors, and says
Each President in my remembrance, has
had peeuliarities. Mr.. Pierce, for instance
was a most courteous gentleman. Buchanan
was in manners, as in heart, an iceberg. Mr..
Lincoln was genial, but it is said that to-
wards the last be was at times irritable
There is no wonder in this. Four years in
the White House would irritate an angel
But, so far, Mr.. johnson is successful in his
endeavors to please all. Hs, l believe, re-
ceives standing, but in minute or TWO re-
quests you to be seated. He listens with no
signs of mpatience, and makes business like
replies. There is no attempt to impress J on
agreeable, you at once feel at home. There
is no reticenoe. He may ask your opinion
on the great questions of the day and frank
ly he will tell you his own. Beyond all ques
tion he is honest, patriotic, and most anxious
30 see peace, prosperity and happiness once
again In all parts of our wide country. The
only apprehension have il, that his natural
goodness of heart will be imposed upon by
the false friends and fatterers always hover
ing around power. Yet / have no doubt il
the time should come, and / think. it will
when he should be stern and unyielding il
what he conceives to be right and best, be

WORD TO WORKING MEN.

We would impress it upon the working
men of this city that they have vital inter
est IN the coming election. 1t is their fight.
Every man who shoves the jack plane, Yields
the sledge, handles the pick or spade-every
man who wearily ascends the ladder with his
heavy load of bricks, keeping step to the
ringing music of the mason's trowel-svery
man who follows any of the trades or tills the
| earth-in short, every man who by the sweat
of his brow earns his daily bresd-has a pc
culiar interest in the success of the great
party which now sustains President johnson
in his efforts to re-sstablish peace. plenty,
prosperity and fraternity throughout this dis
traoted land. The day which witnesses the
defeat of that party and the triumph of rsdi-
cal New England Jacobinism, will be sad
! day for the laboring men. In the train OF
that catastrophe would inevitably follow
long days of unrequited toll aud fearful
| wrestling with penury and want. The ex-
| emption of wealthy bondholders from taxa
| ton would be for ever perpetuated. Legis-
| lation for the benefit of New England mon
opohsts would multiply. Purse proud arts

RADICAL BRAVERY.

Ii 10 amusing TO witness the demonstra-
tions made by some of the radical Jacobins,
merely 10 produce partizan success. Our
readers will remember the caucus held in
Washington last July. This was composed
of republican members of congress. Ray.
mond, member of the caucus and in whose
motion the law of secresy was removed, af.
stewards warned the nation to beware of the
maohinations of radical lenders as developed
in this caucus. Boutwell, of Mass, Kelly of
Pa. Farnsworth and Ingersoll of Illinois,
and Lane of Indiana, gave utterance to senti-
ments OF the most revolutionary character
Their whole aim and object seemed to be to
devise ways and means not to preserve the
Union OF the STATES, not to inculcate peace,
prosperity and happiness throughout the
land, not to allay the strife and soothe the
wild passions of the people, but to devise
ways and means to preserve to themselves
ana their friends political power and pres
tige. Lane of Indiana syowsd bimself in
favor OF laws to curtail the power of the
PRESIDENT, saying he was ready to sit all
summer If necessary at the point of the
bayonst; that if a victim was wanted he mas
ready to sacrifice himself; and declaring that
a million of soldiers would spring to the
capital to sustain congress against the Presi.
dent. Mr.. Lane had an opportunity during
the late war to sacrifice himself but failed TO
improve it. He is now perfectly safe in max
ing this proposition. The danger is in the
distance, but should the time ever come re-
curing any sacrifice on his part, he will be
found just where he was before, in the rear
out of the danger of bullets. But this bloodless
hero thinks, he can count on others to fight
for him he thinks the brave men who foncb,
and won the late great contest, are ready ~
spring to his rescue, merely to preserve IN
him the emoluments of office on which ba

surround an army. Raymond says these
radicals viii if necessary invoke an insurrec-
ton of the people to maintain them in their
position, and in the event of % collision they

will appeal to force to drive the President
and bis cabinet supporters into the Potomac.
These fellows will be careful not to lead the
force however.
Dead Duck Forney in . recent speech
adopted the programme of the fanaticAl
BrownIow. He proposed to organize three
armies for the purpose of invading the south,
the first to kill, the second to burn and the
third to confscate and take possession
of property and hold it. He said he saw by
the glitter of the eyes of his hearers that they
were ready for this emergency. 1t might be
well to INQUIRE what Forney and Brownlow
propose to kill Is ii the women and chill
dren +? There is no armed foe DOWN there
The men who recently belonged to the rebel
army are not going to fight, they have their
ell of that. When thir army moves out it is
not difficult to tell where Forney win be-
He'll be where he always has BENIN the rear
