Thugs LOST on EARTH.

Classical scholars have never ceased to mourn Tor
great number of Latin and Greek books known TO
have existed but cx,aut longer; and it is possible
tlat future ages may weep without hope for those
portlous OF Mr. Raymonds Address" which were
ruthes,ly exscised by the Committee. We feel II due
To coming generations thus early put upon record
all that We know Of these mysterious and unfortunate
messages This is little enough and the authority Of
Tie Timts newspaper upon which it rests, makes it
morally smaller but perhaps our neghbor, who must
be in possession Of the suppressed words aud discarded
phrases, will spare coming commentators much both
Grafton by giving them 20 the public. Mr. h. e., the
specal correspondent of The Times and one Of the
most lovely writers Of this any other age, tells us
that when the Address was submitted to the pr.
yaie manipulations Of the Comm,ttee IS some few
verbal changes were suggested andma with view of
raspng rough ohGes Onr curiosity is
excited, we confess, TO know the nature OF the
edges in what consisted their roughness," and
how their rasping affected the tone Of the - Adj
dress" We beg not 10 be- thought gratuitously in
quistvc. Words are sometimes things aud words
were especially things in this Convention; for beyond
good words il hardly advanced an inch. We did not
believe il to be in the gentle nature Of Mr. Raymond
to use any expressions which would be painful TO the
sensitive mind even OF a perfectly unreconstrueted
Rebel but as his own correspondent states that some
of his words were rather rough and further that
here and there Was a phrase not necessary to the
gtheral tone Of The paper that grated somewhat"
and further STILL that these were eXpunged, we are
on tip-toe to know who felt the grating and de-
manded the expurgation. Fortunately, the frank
but leaky correspondent does not leave us in much
doubt. After recooking in committee, Mr. Raymond
address, we are told, "met at once the hearty
assent of .he Southern members" Can /" triumph
antly excaims the leter.wrter state any fact
conclusive than this" We should say decidedly not.
All this amounts to an admission that Mr.. Raymond's
miraculous performance was toned" to suit q" the
Southern members" Now, il only to crafty our
curiosity, will the honorable author vouchsaie US
peep at in its virgin freshness and unyoated orgi
naty as il came in native beauty from his rapid and
unsophistcated pen We want il as "a curiosity OF
literature" in its I'M" rasped" integrity, before 1t
met the assent Of the Southern members." We dare
say that nothing was suppressed Of which it's talented
parent need be ashamed 80 long as man has
mOrsel Of conscience left. first thoughts and intuitve
impulses, and the words which readily suggest them
selves, are oftenest the best, and we desire glimpse
of Mr. Raymond's luxurant virtue before Il was pruned

Reply.
The words Impartial" and Suffrage are cor
rectly defined in Websiers and We presuIse in other
dictionaries We refer our correspondent TO them.
We use them in their established Specification, and in
no other. .......
As to Women's voting, our judgment does not favor
it, because it would double the cost aud trouble Of
holding elections and Gas We think to 10 purpose.
There would be twice many votes as now TO re-
ceive AMI to canvass, with material difference in
the result
But we hold firmly to the principle that 50 govern
mento derive their just powers from he ooHs,n Of The
goUerHed;' a"d We justify the exclusion Of Women
from the lists Of legal voters only on the assumption
that is their choice to havei So Whenever shan
appear that majority OF tue women in this State
wish to be enGanchised, shall support their claim,
though we advise them not to make it. For we think
it will be difficult, if not impossible to place their
names on the registres and receive their votes,
and here stop. IL seems TO us that reasonable de-
mand will instantly arise that they accept all the
responsibilities of citizenship and not pick out one
and rejeot every other If they insist on their right
to help make the laws, they must not SHRINK If re-
qured to aid also in their execution aud enforcement;
if they participate in voting the country into war;
they may be plausiby required to help fight her out
of it. Such is the aspect which the question now
wears to u.s. we may be led on fuller consideration
to different conclusions.
As to the age at which the Right Of Suffrage may be
exercised, we see no reason for making special rule
on the subject. The law long since fixed the age of
maturity and full responsibility, aud we deem the
point well and wisely settled 1t is quite true that
some persons are filter TO vote at 10 than Others are
at 40 years old; just as some who migrated TO this
country last week are filter to vote than some who
were born here and have lived among US to good
old age Yet to allow any board arbiter TO deter
mine arbitrarily that A., barely 10 years old, may
vote, while b. who is past 40 shall not, would lead to
the grossest abuses and create general discomfort
We see no other way to secure Impartial Suffrage
than that which has stood the test of experience and
given very general satisfaction.
To provide that every male citizen shall vote who
is over2l years Of age and who has lived year in
the State and four months in the County and has an
actual fixed residence therein. is Impartial Suffrage

WHIP refused to consent 10 the Conventions or 10

their point triumphantly aud the johnson party
is compelled to ratify Democratic policy and unable

nominations will be controlled by the Democracy who
