PensiOning NewsDuaDers:

According to an act of Congress, the
Clerk of the House of Representatives is
empowered to authorize two newspapers
in each of the excluded States to publish
the United States laws and do the official
advertising for the Government. Good
prices are paid for this work. and the weak
er class of newspapers struggle for it as If
it were the journalistic elixir of life. Mr..
Mcpherson, the House Clerk. has awarded
this patronage to papers in nearly all Of the
Southern States, and we find that the for
tunate ones are all of the extreme Radical
type, and nearly all of them sickly con-
Germs, which, could not long exist without
food from some unusual quarter. It seems
to us that if theRadicals are determined to
pension the few papers in the South which
are engaged in fomenting disturbances and
keeping alive political passion and hatred,
it would be better to make "a direct money
appropriation. Up* aTo *Hfpa *jiass y

Don't Like the patchwork.

. The Cincinnati Commercial was among
the most anxious in the State, that an
amendment should be submitted to a vote
of the people, striking from the Con-
stitutionr the word, sWhite.n 1t is not
satisfied with the Amendment as the Re-
publicans in the Legislature have patched
it up. 1t is of the impression that if its
effect is to disfranchise sic or eight thousand
soldiers, who have no official discharge, but
who nevertheless did gallant service
throughout the actual continuance of the
war, it will bedefeated. Senator KELLOGG
stated, on the authority of the Adjutant
General of the State, that the muster rolls
show that from sixteen to eighteen thousand
soldiers are marked as deserters who I'M
doubtedly did faithful service; but who re-
turned home without leave when LEE and
JOHNSTON had surrendered their armies
Mr.. KELLOGG protested against disfran-
chising these men until the last moment,
when he yielded and became a party to
this -meditated great wrong to white SOL
diers. These soldiers, who are thus sought
to be disfranchised, do not only owe it to
themselves to assist in voting down the
Amendment, but in voting into a minority
the party that seeks to heap this intamy
up on them. ~ sss

Stick IN That.

The Sdndusky Register (Radical) informs
its readers-and the same sort of talk is in
dulged in by Republican journals OF more
nOte-that:
ssThe Southern press, with but few ex-
ceptions, has turned its back upon the Nor
thern Democracy, and is now bitter in its
denunciations of that party"
If this talk has any meaning, it is that
between the Democracy. OF. the North and
the leaders in the late insurrection there is
not now, ifithere ever was, any concord
whatever; that their ways are different al
together; that the men they but recently
held up to reprobation as rebels, are now
in accord with the leaders of the Republi-
can party who insist upon making voters
out of the negroes. We hope the Register
and all Republican journals that gleefully
announce that the Southern press, with
but few exceptions, has turned its back
upon the Northern Democracy" will
stick to that. 1t gives us intense sat
isfaction to learn that the Southern
people refuse to look upon the Connec-
ticut election as political Waterloo, and
the result of that election has caused but
little enthusiasm throughout the Southern
States" In view of this, we have the right
to expect as we get into the heat of the
campaign that the Register and its colab-
orers will not be guilty of mendaciously
charging that the Democrats and rebels are
in conspiracy to get hold of the Govern
ment, as has her etofore been their custom
TO charge. - -s1n 1-

Hon..A. al. Thnr.mnn..

( Our gallant and accomplished Standard
bearer for Governor, Hon. Allen G.. Thur
man, was in Newark, on Wednesday, and
after transacting some business, returned
to Columbus by the evening train. The
Judge is carrying very heavy legal prac-
tice, but is in prime health, and is getting
bis docket in good shape to allow him t
enter on the labors of the campaign as free
as possible from professional drawbacks.
He is in fine spirits, and thinks that the De-
mocracy, with proper organization, have it
in their power to add, at the approaching
election, a large per cent. to the highest
vote they cast in any former contest in
Ohio. In this opinion we fully concur;
but every man in the party must feel that
he has share of work to perform, and that
it should commence now and not be inter-
mitted till the sun goes down on the second
Tuesday of OCTOBER ~ e,odrk AdUocdte.

We Feel for Them.

The Courier seeks consolation over the
recent defeats of the Radicals, in compar-
ing the standing of Judge Thurman with
that of English, of Connecticut, and makes
an effort to cheer up the dropping spirits of
its readers every other day by telling them
that Thurman is an anti-war man, and
English a strong war Democrat. We feel
pIe wills it So and who can % stay the tide Rso of
public opinion? If the Courier can find
relief in this way, we are glad to hear it.
But had they not better dry up their wall
ing, and be prepared for the worst? Had
they not better shape their course and leave
their tracks in such a manner, as will ena-
BILE them to meet Judge Thurman's cleo
tion next fall without an undue amount of
excitement. There's one place, dear school
masters, where you can find consolation,
and remember, in your Affections, that
Christ has said, ''Blessed are they that
mourn, for they shall be comforted.n-

STEADY. Boxr. steady!

Very truly does the NeUdrE 4 dvocate
say, that the result of the recent elections
over the country, is in many instances
such as is calculated to elate the Democracy
and fill them with buoyancy. This is all
we'll but let our friends temper their re-
joicing with thoughttulness;z and, above
all, let them bear in mind that what is
achieved this spring, will be worthless un :
less followed up by victories still more sub
stantial in the future. Let them, therefore,
beware of supineness; let them keep the
door well open for the entrance of such of
our Republican brethren as feel disposed to
enter. Whilst watching the enemy, let
Us also keep an eye on ourselves.
Let us guard against all impru-
dences, all extravaganza of sentiment or
expression. The life of Radicalism de-
pen1sl on the ability of its leaders to keep
alive bitterness and hate among the people.
Without something to inflame the passions
of their followers, they are doomed to de-
feat Gould they bring about another
Memphis riot or a New Orleans massacre,
their political hopes would quickly
brighten, and their bosoms would palpitate
with fresher joy than they are likely to
feel in twelve month if all goes forward in
quiet and if Democrats do their duty. The
great necessity of the Radicals just now is
another riot. Ifthey can not get that, they
will handsomely reward any man who
will put up lusty shout for JEFF. Davis.
Failing in these, they will accept almost
anything else which they can use to draw
off the public attention from the misrule,
extravaganza and iniquity which have
grown into such fearful proportions under
the dynasty controlled by Stevens, Sum-

state Robbery.

According to the Ne,o York Tribune and
the Neo York Times, the most reeking cor
ruption has prevailed in the New York
Legislature where the Republicans have a
two-thirds majority. 1t was open and
shameless. Matters among the Republi-
can members of the Pennsylvania Legis-
lature were not much better. Pennsyl-
vania was saved from the robbery of $780,
600 through the vigilance of Hon. w. A.
WALLACE, chairman of the Democratic
State Central committee. 1t appears to be
the case everywhere where the Republi-
cans have an overwhelming majority that
the utmost extravaganza and corruption in
expenditures prevail. They act out the
idea that the chief end of the masses of the
peopleis to pay, taxes. 5r.. -,Es9 fss 81 ..5.sgSl

The Amendmema of the state Con.
y effru1fOa.

~
The proposition to enfranchise the color
ed men in Ohio was weakened, if, not fatal
ly destroyed, by tacking on to the proposed
amendment to the State Constitution a
clause disfranchising all deserters from the
service. We attempted to show, While it
was pending before the Legislature, that,
as happened Ill the State of West Virginia,
hundreds of soldiers who served through
the war, or during actual hostilitieS, and
| returned homie without waiting for their
official discharges, will be sdisfranchised if
the amendment be adopted. The Legisla-
ture probably overlooked this fact in its de-
sire tosreach class of deserters and draft
skulkers who deserve disfranchisement., At
any rate, that clause should have been kept
distinct from the one proposing to enfran-
chise the blacks, and so arranged as to be
separately voted upon. ni'5s7iai 9lI :
fa9We observe that the Democratic Central
fCommittee; in their address to the Democ-
Iracy of the State, have not failed to take
advantage of tile legislative blunder. They

"Every man who isopposed to the estab-
ilishment of an equality of the white and
black races in this State and to the dis
tfranchisenient of those soldiers who did
faithful service throughout the actual con-
tinuanee OF the war, but who returned
home beforereceiving an official discharge,
must now be enlisted .''5!ppim sB1 ~ vol
The talk about the equalisyof the two
races because OF an equality of political
rights is, of course, all bosh, mere partisan
ltwaddle Z but unless we are misinforined,
there is as ubstrantum of truth in what is
fsaid of the edisfranehisement'of soldiers who
did faithful service up to the time that hos
Utilities closed. If it shall prove on inVesti-
lgation that the effect will be to disfranehise
between nine and ten thousand honorable
tsoldiers in Ohio. the amendment will be
voted down; not because it enfranchises
the blacks, but because it disfranehises the
lsoIdiers!. dainTIrl s1ai aasd -baaaaj1s
E7oIt is amazing that the Legislature should
have been prevailed upon to put the propo-
sition insuch aishape to the people of Ohio,
respectfully after Mr.. Kellogg's very plain
statement In the Senate chamber. What
was needed was a clear propositions to en-
franchise the colored men Of Ohio. Upon
that there would have been no hesitation tC
ljoin issue with the Democracy: but as the
proposition now stands it is very doubtful
whether it will receive the approval of the
Republican party and If it should be as
certained that it disfranehises hundreds O
good and true soldiers, reward will have
TO be offered to persuade any friend of the
soldiers to touch it with ten-foot pole.-

Does II Furnish a Good Substan.
tial ReasOn Why?


tfaI Reason Why?
All at once o. N.MALLoRY. the Secreta-
ry of the Navy of the late Southern Com
federacy, WADE HAMPTON, BEAuREGARD,
LoNesTREET,s and such as they, are COM
mended to our special regard by the Re-
publican press. 1t must yet be within the
recollection of every one who up to last
year read Republican newspapers and lis
tened to Republican orators, that because
some of these men gave their. appreciation
to the 18th of August PhiladeIphia Con-
yentions and to the policy of President
Johnson, the most bitter and relentless in
vective was hurled at them. They were
eharaeterized as bloody handed nurderers
with whom no true-hearted patriot could
suffer himself to hold association In the
Legislative Halls of the country. To-day
these same Republican politicians are will
ing to take those rebel leaders to their arms,
Judging from the admiring way they speak
of them. The explanation for this is found
in the circumstance, that those men, hav-
ing occupied prominence in the ranks of
the rebellion, with view of getting power,
propose to make fair terms with the Ne
4
groes under the Military Reconstruction
bill and declare that they can neither have
part nor lot with the Democratic party, in7
asmuch as the Democratic party would not
come to their assistance in the hour of their
extremity, when they were striving to
build up Southern Confederacy. We are
obliged to them-heartily obliged to them
for this talk and action-and hope they will
continue to berate the Democracy of the
Northsfor declining to give practical aid in
support of their fool-hardy enterprise
Those Southern gentlemen are right. The
Democracy of the North did not tender
them aid to withdraw from the Union; and
it is, furthermore, true, that they never
will. Now, because Abolitionists and late
ly Rebel leaders join hands OIL the PROPOSE
tion to use the Negroes as political power
to promote their own ends-to consolidate
power in their hands-does this furnish a
feason-a good, substantial reason-that
the White voters here in Ohio should at the
October election declare that the Negroes
shall vote hereafter in this State?
