Lying by Telegraph.

The desperation of the ''tire-tried Union
lists" or political Niger Mnstrels," who
are now performing in the city Of Brotherly
love, to the great admiration of a small circle
Of friends and admirers, may readily be in
ferred from the simple fact that tie other day
they went wild with delight over the an
nouncemept that General GRANT and Admi-
raj FARRAeuT had deserted Mr. JOHNSON at
Detroit These two gentlemen did no such
thing. They are still with the Presidential
party, and it is simply absurd to suppose that
they are not in accord with the views of the
Executiye-nay, it is a charge upon them of
downright hypocrisy and double dealing, to
attribute to them voiceess hostility to the
policy so often announced in their presence
The lie was so transparent, and its imme-
date detection SO certain that we are amazed
that they should have resortea to it. The
effect has simply been to display the vast i'm
portance they attach to the adhesion to my
policy" of the gentlemen in question; and
when the Cleveland Convention assemblies,
we may rest assured that the importance
attributed to the sentiments Of GRANT and
FABRAaVT, by the Red Caps, will be fully

Are the Fords Properly Guarded Z

The men of EPHRAIM were displeased with
JEPTHA because, as they said, he did not call
them to go with him and fight against the
children of AMatoN and they gathered them
selves together and went northward, and
threatened to burn bis house with fire. And
JEFTHA said, and my people We're at great
strife with the children Of AMMoN, and when
| called yon ye delivered me not out of their
hands-and be gathered together the Gilead-
passages of JORDAN. And it was SO that

The Elections.

The State of Maine will elect Governor,
members of the Legislature, and FIVE MEM
bers of Congress- on the 10th instant. From
this State and Vermont, the Conservatives
have not much to expect, because they are
dyed in the wool of radicalism. On the 9th
of October, however, the Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana elections take place, and the re-
sultin these States may be, perhaps accepted
as an index of the Conservative sentiment of
the North, and the support which is to be
given to the restoration policy of ANDREW
JOHNSON
The elections of members of Congress are,
perhaps, the surest index of the popular SEN
timent--and are to be regarded as such, rath-
er, perhaps, than the merely local elections,
where personal bias is, perhaps, more infu-
entail As these States will elect Congress-
men, and as they elect the Senators, personal
attachments should everywhere be rendered
subservient to the principles involved. We
are encouraged, however, in being able to
state that the accounts from Indiana, Ohio,
and Pennsylvania, "giye every assurance Of
decided Conservative gains" The elections
in these States will have an important bear
ing upon those which are to come after, and
it is therefore, desirable that they yield "no
uncertain sound'-for much depends upon
the voice they utter.

New York -W m -H


CHI, WILSON, Esq. Bookseller, &c., Bank
street, has laid the above book on our table.
1t constitutes one of Southern University
series, and is prepared under the supervision
of that accomplished scholar and profound
thinker, Prof GEO. F. HOLMES, LII. D., of
the University of Virginia
We like he general plan of the above work
very much. Its superiority when compared
with many other books of the kind, is evident
at first sight 1t is plain and perspicuous in
it's arrangements, and is calculated to lead on
the young mind by easy gradatons in the ac-
QUESTION of knowledge L-4a z
We look forward to the completion of all
the works of the different Professors with feel
ings Of pride as Nirginans; for we are conf
the State and of its great Institution of Learn
ing, and free us from our dependence upon
other portions Of the country for the text
books from which our children and our youth
have thus far drawn their mental sllstenance.
Mr. WILSON, to whom we are indebted for
the copy we have examined is the agent for
the series, and we trust he will at once lay
the elementary books of this series before the
proper authorities of this town, and every
county in which the free school system is in
operation.
We earnestly recommend this series to all
persons interested in the important subject of
education, and confidently predict brilliant
and enduring success for the enterpr Use. In
| treatment, letter press, illustrations, and pa
per, the little volume before us proclaims it
self the right book, by the right man, at the
right time.

he said Sbboleth, for he could not frame to
pronounce it right. Then they took him and
slew him at the passage of Jordan. As the
fords of Jordan were guarded by good and
true men, who had the proper password, and
thus could detect friend from q foe, so the
occupants of the Federal offices, who are in
position to Use their station to the injury Of
conservatism, must be men friendly to the
administration. If they are not they should
relinquish their positions, or suffer the conse-
quence, which will be like that which hap
pened to the Ephraimites at the passages Of
the Jordan
Mr.. HAMLIN evidently appreciates this,
for having decided to cast his fortunes with
those Of the Radicals, he makes virtue Of
necessity, and magnifcently vacates his of
flee. ,, ...r. .
Some people may think that the heroic
HAMLIN does this through Roman virtue,
but the fact is he is on certain ground as a
Radical, and by this apparent sacrifice in
creases his local strength Instead of at
tempting the fords, he stuffs himself carefully
with pillow and performs hari-kari, with
funeral solemnity of visage, making the feath-
ers fly into the eyes of the unsophisticated
HORACE, who applauds the action with vocif-
erous delight.
