EQUALITY roe WHlTE MEN.

The cry of Negro Equality Is echoed
and re-echoed from every corner of the land
against the Union Party though its record,
as it stands in the proposed Constitutional
amendment, shows it to be ready and willing
to incorporate into the Constitution an
amendment which accords to each State the
right of regulating for itself the question
of suffrage. But this does not satisfy Cop
perheads and rebels. The same amendment
proposes to put tohite men on an equality
throughout the length and breadth of the
land and for this it is bitterly opposed by
every copperhead, rebel and copper-J johnson
in Jne land. A Southern slave driver before
the rebellion possessed about twice as
much power in the Government as North
ern white man by reason of the three-ffths
representation of the negroes and now
Northern doughfaces and eopperheads com
bine with Southern rebels to demand for
these same slave drivers each about three
tirnaaa -.a.rsah each Northern
white man. 1t is for this purpose that An
drew johnson and his copperhead, rebel,
and bread and butter followers not only bit
terly oppose the amendments but actually
threaten revolution unless the Southern
States are admitted and this increased pow
er accorded to red handed rebels. Equality
for white men is the motto of the Union
party. Let copperheads and rebels cease
their cry Of Negro Equality until they
are willing to acknowledge, that rebels and
traitors are no better than loyal Northern
white men, by adopting the Constitutional
Amendments. The Union party is ready to
admit the rebel States and place their peo-
pie on an equality with loyal men, but it is
not willing nor will it ever be to place IN
creased power in the hands of the rebels and
thus reward instead Of punish them for trea.

GRANT AND FARRAGUT.

1t will be seen by our dispatches this
morning, that Admiral Farragut, the gallant
old tar who took New Orleans and run the
rebel batteries of Port Hudson and Mobile,
is ashamed of the bad company he is COM
PEELED to keep. In his speech at Delmoni-
cos, he took pains to state distinctly that he
was invited to accompany the President to
the West, and that he was taught in that
good old school where an invitation from his
Commander-in-C Chief was always pleasant
duty to perform. In other words the invi-
tation of the Admiral superior officer was
regarded as command, and he has become
so ashamed Of his company, since johnson
turned the journey into rebel electioneer-
ing tour, that he feels it necessary to dis
claim all responsibility for the disgraceful
exhibition, of which he forms an unwilling
and Involuntary part. He evidently fears
lhat even his reputation for loyalty win suf-
fer before the country, unless he washes his
hands OF the reasonable sentiments pro-
claimed by johnson.
General Grant intimates very plainly in
his brief speech, that it was agreed and un-
derstood before the party left Washington,
that the President was not to make any
speeches OF course the President would
keep no such PROMISE particularly after par
taking Of Delnonico's wine; and it became
necessary for General Grant to throw out
this broad hint, that in making stump
speeches for the rebels, the President was
acting in bad faith, and that but for the
agreement to keep still, he would not have
accompanied him. The attempt to drag
General Grant and Admiral Farragut into
the support of the rebel cause, under the
guise Of pleasure excursion, viii not sue
ceed just yet = Chicago Tribune.
