The radicals point to the $1,000, ,000, 900
Of debt under which the people are
groaning, to the hundreds Of thousands
Of lives that were lost in the late war,
and TO the sacrifices and suffcrings en-
dured by the people, and they ask,
Shall these things be i'll vain' We an
swer no; ten thousand times No. All
OF this debt which was not stolen BY the
radicals, was spent in an effort to re-
store the Union. All Of this blood was
shed in order that the Constitution
might be enforced and the laws obeyed
All of these sufferings were undergone
in order that the old Flag might float
unmolcsted over the whole thirty-siS
States represented by the stars in Its
field. But what have the radicals done
They have discovered the Union; de
stroyed eleven States: stricken eleven
stars from the national banner and
trampled the Constitution under foot
lhe very thing that the war was waged to
prevent, the radical disunionists and
fanatics have accomplished. Instead OF
restoring the Union for which our sol
0'erS fought, they have denied repre-
seh'a'ion TO the Southern States and
ueciare that the Union is dissolved; that

ship, last night, was glorious success,
considering the fact that but one days
notice had been given. The meeting
was called to order by calling A. A. Al

Mr.. William Boggs, Secretary.
J.W. Parker and Hanson Good, Esqs.,
addressed the meeting in their usual
happy style. Each gentlemen spoke for
nearly two hours. They clearly demon
strated the radical plans, and earnestly
urged the Democratic Conservatives to
come out in their strength on Thursday,

prsUNroSIsM or CONGRESS.

Mr.. Walker recurred to the record and
defined the legitimate purposes of the
war as laid down in the Crittenden reso-
luton, the platform upon which our ar
mics had been raised and the war for
the suppression Of the rebellion waged.
In now defeating those purposes Con-
gress had taken up the Lost Cause
where the rebels dropped it, and become
the advocates and apologists of disunion.
The rebellion of Congress was shown
to be more iniguitous if possible than
that of the Southern States. The latter
assailed the Constitution under fool
ish and mistaken idea that they could
thereby redress some fancied grievances,
while the former had not even the poor
pretext of imaginary injury to justify
them, but acted from no motive but lust
of power. In either case the effect upon
the Government was the same; II meant
a destruction OF the relation existing
between the States and the Government
and this was a dissolution of the nation.
After thorough discussion of the na-
ture of the ends proposed by Con
gress, and their influence upon
the government as well as upon the

THE Intclligencer attempts to excuse
the outrages committed last Saturday
night by saying they were done in re-
taliation for insults offered TO radical
professions heretofore. Every person
knows that ifsuch insults had been per-
petrated by Democrats, rs the editor al
leges, he would have made as much
capital ont of it as possible, and harped
upon that string until his readers were
tired oft. But he don't seem to have
discovered that the radicals had any
thing TO retaliate for, until after the so
called retaliation had been done.

The mock heroic and almost pathetic
style in which the negro suffrage organ
appeals to the people of the Fourth
Ward to come to the rescue of him and

COL. d. ID. JOHNSON'S SPEECH.
At the conclusion of Mr.. StifePs re-
marks, Col. ID. ID. johnson, of Tyler,
candidate for Congress, in opposition to
Hon. CD. Hubbard, came forward in
response to loud calls from the crowd
and proceeded to address the meeting.
/ He addressed the soldiers as the " True
Bows in Blue" whose record upon the
battle field was in harmony with their
action upon political questions. They
had periled life and property to defend
! the Union as patriots in arms, and they
! now advocated the integrity of the
! Government, as citizens in the walks of
civil life. The radical assertion that
the defenders of tile Union were all in
! their ranks, was refuted by citation of
the fact that almost all the leading and
successful Federal soldiers were now
! found battling in opposition TO Radical
7 lisunionism, even as they had fought
! Southern rebellion in the bloody fields
of the recent strife. The names Of Sher-
man. McCook, Granger, Custar, Sheri-
dan, and many other prominent lighting
Generals, were mentioned as ardent
supporters of President johnson and
the unfiinching opponents OF
Congressional - iniquities and
wrongs. Colonel johnson referred
with telling effect to the remark Of Ben.
/ Butler that the Government should be
! controlled only by those whose efforts
( had rescued and preserved 1t from the
danger threatened by rebellion in
arms. The Colonel declared that such
a policy would exclude the General
himself from all participation in the
! Government because history recorded
no actof his, as a commander, which
had advanced the cause of the. Union.
! Dwelling at some length upon the in
i liuence Of former soldiers as civilians
and the effect of that action in support.
ing as heretofore the unity Of the Gov
ernment, Colonel johnson concluded
with stirring appeal to his hearers to
labor earnestly for success at the ballot
box and for relief from the wrongs IN
fiieted npon them by the party IN pow
ct. Colonel johnson was repeatedly
cheered during his remarks, and at the
close the demonstrations OF applause
were hearty and long. Three cheers for
Colonel johnson were then called f"f
and the response was earnest and unan'
imous Notwithstanding ths
lateness of the hour and
the incIemeney of the weather, the

CHAPTER VIII.
BY CLAUDE FORESTER.


Cotton has somewhere said, that The
plainest mau that can convince woman
that he is really in love with her, has done
more to make her in love with him than the
handsomest man, if be can produce no such
conviction. For the love of woman is a
shoot, not seed, and fourishes most vigo,
rously only when ipgrafted on that love
which is rooted in the breast of another
There is much philosophical truth and
common sense in such statement, and it
almost always occurs that man, in his igno
rance of this fundamental fact, brings into
his own heart sorrow that shades and dark.
ems his whole after life.
In the pride and sel6shness of his heart,
man uses every effort to win the love of wo-
man to himself, supposing that such a
course is absolutely necessary before be can
consistently offer his heart and hand in mar
risge whereas the reverse is precisely the
more successful, because the more natural
course of action. Do not be so careful and
solicitous to possess the absolute certainty of
her love, as to make the impression on her
mind and heart that you love her. The
pleasure of being lovedis the emotion which
you wish to bring about in her heart.
Now. how can we wonder that so many
men are rejected, so many discarded and
disappointed in their love plans, when such
a strange and unnatural method of action
is adopted? This sudden, il.timed aud
unexpected declaration of love is almost ever
unsuccessful, for the simple reason that it
is surprise, an attack under cover of dark
ness, whereas plain, open, unmasked ad-
vance, by gradual approaches, would
bring about the unconditional surrender of
the heart.
For instance: Where is the wisdom, the
forethought, or even the common sense, in
suddenly pouring upon the ear of woman a
deluge of the most passionate expressions
of love, and then offer her your heart and
hand at the conclusion Where, repeat,
is the sense of all this, if in all the days
and weeks and months of your intimacy
you have never even so much as hinted
your love, or made the least attempt to i'm
press upon her mind the fact of your unal-
tersble attachment and devotion?
Now, why should not the attributes of
the mind be brought into action hele as
we'll as in the other pursuits of life g? Why
should they be held in reserve, while the
unaided forces of the heart alone advance
to the contest? Is reason, judgment, fore.
thought, sagacity and tact to be put aside
altogether in our love matters Must pas
sion and caprice be harnessed to our souls,
and driven, without bit or bride, right
over all the noble instincts and attributes of
the intellect? Absurd !
If you love woman enough to marry
