Mr.. Cole viewed with favor Mr..

his resolutions had been miSappre-
hended. The road must have aroute
and a name, before it can be incorpo-
rated under the laws of the State 1t
was not only necessary to maine the
termini of the road, but each county
through which it will pass, so as to
be recorded in each county and this
could not be done without q more
particular definition than that of the
Committee.
On motion to strike out the Com
mittee report so rs to admit Mr.
Cooks resolutions, the Convention
refused, when Mr. Hall moved to
amend by substituting the resolu-
tions he had previously introduced.
The amendment being put to the
meeting, MIR. Halls resolutions were
unanimously adopted.
1 The following resolution was then
unanimously agreed to:
Resolved, That the officers of this

1t is understood that the special
international committees now in Par
is. to agree upon common unit OF
money for the civilized world, have
substantially resolved to recommend
the French five franc piece of gold.
1t is hoped they will agree on some
unit which will be adopted as basis
of financial reckoning by all nations.
This would save an immense amount
of trouble and expense. Americans
believe, and not without some good
reasons, that our dollar would be
the best unit of money to agree upon.

Whatever may be the failings of
our nominee for Lieutenant Cover
nor, Samuel G galloway, extreme, over
whelming modesty does not make up
the number. After careful consid-
eration Of the pros. and cons, hon
ors and dishonors, dignity and "non-
dignity" declines the "doubtful
compliment" and wades through an
entire encyclopedia of words to do
so.
There is nothing out Of the way in
declining the position, and perhaps
not in his manner of doing it. Per
haps, though, it would have been as
well for his interests to have left un-
said some things he says, and given
his friends q short and fair deeiina-
ton. g. -.a -f ... s,aa.s. -.- --- ...
Modesty becometh all men, wheth-
er, like Galloway, they have been
honored with office at the age OF thir-
ty-three or forty three.
The people who may putthem in Of
flee at that age sometimes make mis-
takes and give them ersdlit for more
qualifications than such men possess,
And further, it is not always the case
that a mans worth and ability in
crease with age-sometimcs it "grows
down hill like cows tail" Gallo
ways ability may not have done SO,
yet a careful reading of his very CON
fding, limiting, modest, super extra
myself declination will show that
something is at fault-thst either the
head or the heart is inclined to ''wab
BILE" like fiy-wheel on an untrue or
imperfectly levelled shaft. The gen
tleman has ambltiou-prefers to rise
rather than fall he don't wish to be
in suspended animation for seven
months in a year, as President Of the
Senate-the people hereafter won't
want him suspended at all; he don't
think he is required to make sacri-
fee of " self-respect, personal digni-
ty, and comfort that no other man
would make-bless him, hereafter he
will not be asked to; he don't think
he has the taste or mental abilities
for the place-he is right; the people
thought he had, and were mistaken !;
he could not afford to make pecunia-
ry sacrifices without he had the first
place on the ticket and was the lead
er in the campaign-oh. the great
ness of myself almost swelled to
bursting he was not committed to
the ambitious schemes Of ambitious
Presidential aspirants and foresaw
his defeat white, probably, the battle
ragged from afar-how beautiful is
honesty when discovered by ones
self; he can afford to wait for honor
bound up in his ability and caring
nothing for official honors or emol-
ument except as spontaneous offer
ings of loyal hearts-why then does
his defea. for the first place on the
ticket and the leadership in the cam
paign" affect him SOP
Samuel knows his own ability so
well and has discovered deepseated
very low down-ability that the
people had not discovered. They
know it now.
The office of Lieutenant Governor
was not equal to what Samuel thinks
| his abilities entItle him to--when he
finds one fully up to his great quail
fications they may possibly think it
above them. What would Samuel
do then

LOOKING AHEAD.-An exchange,
taking a glimpse Of the future, says
the Pacific Railroad, now progress
ing rapidly to completion, with a
prospect of being opened for travel
by 1870, will be the great highway
of the world. Stretching with its
Eastern connections across the CON
tinent from New York to San Fran
cisco, q distance of 2,26S miles, it
Will afford the shortest and most
comfortable route from England to
China. The traveller from London
to Hong Kong will run up by rail to
Liverpool, and take the steamer,
which will land him at New York, g.
$50 miles to the Westward, within
eleven days Of the time he left home.
Thence across the country he will fly
in six days to the Golden Gate. where
another steamer will be in waiting to
carry him the remaining 1900 miles
in twenty three days The whole
trip will occupy only forty days, fif-
teen less than the shortest time ever
made by the Mediterranean and Red
Sea route. There will be but two
changes, the whole course will be
through the healthiest and pleasant
est regions of the world, and the
land transit will be grateful relief
to the monotony of ocean travel
These great advantages will even
tually secure 10 the Pacific Railroad
the whole trade of Eastern Asia, and
make New York and San Francisco
its principal seats. --.-

The testimony of DR.. Mcmillan
goes very far toward proving the
completely of Davis in the assassin
alton of President Lincoln. Surratt
told Mcmillan that he received 4
large sum of money from Secretary
Benjamin, and on his arrival in Que
bee, and during the voyage, he was
in company and conversation with
Beverly Tucker, Jewctt, General Rip
ley, of South Carolina, and a servant
of jeff. Davis. The arch rebel has
good reason for seeking an asylum
under the British flag, and for oppOs-
ing the annexation OF Canada to the
United States.

cause the Republicans have not the
grit to stand up for their convictions

The principles enunciated are ac-

there is timidity in regard to carry

inexcusable. II principle is right

contending for. If man believes it
is right to give the colored man the
right of suffrage, let him be manly
enough to speak it out boldly, and
not go round with his head bowed
down and his heart constantly to his
mouth, for fear some Democrat will
call him an "Abolitionist." If you
believe Abolitionism to lie right, say
so, and do it in a plucky manner. If
you believe the colored man is enti-
tied to a vote, plump it ont, fair and

of the Democracy. No man who
loved principle was ever deferred
from doing his duty, in his convio-
tions of what was right, by the sneers
and howls of those who let prejudice
govern them instead of reason. A
doubtful course never ac-
complished anything. Moral cour-
age, with q firm determination to win,
is what 10 needed.

A collision occurred at Nashville,
Tennessee, on Saturday, between the
whites and blacks, during which,
shots were exchanged so freely as to
Kill one man outright, and wounding

cause of the outbreak, but the report
intimates that white man named

The temper of Congress appears to
be Enthusiastically. in favor OF short
session, during which all energies
shall be devoted to the work of per
fecting the necessary legislation for
reconstruction. In the Senate, yes
terday, there was 4 lively debate
on motion of Mr.. Anthony to coDfne
business TO the matter of reconstruc-
tion. Mr.. Sumner offered substi-
tute motion, advocating it by coup
lie of speeches, in which he said the
treaties with South America and
Russia, the condition OF our Indian
affairs, and the question of univer-
sal suffrage, were all of pressing i'm
portance, but he could obtain but six
votes for the substitute. An other
amendment, excepting Indian affairs
fiom the matters of excluded legis-
lation, numbered but fifteen votes.
Mr.. Edmunds offered n bill regula-
ting the matter Of registration, detin-
ing the duties Of registration boards
and the qualifications of voters,

The love of the Democratic party

The love of the Democratic party
for the soldiers, is ingeniously ex-
pressed at times. How they love
the soldier is visable in the following
extract from an article which recent
ly appeared in the Marion Democrat
--the organ Of that party in the
county-under the caption, The
Dupe of Catchwords.' Listen to him !:
sAndersonville, Libby, Treason,
etc, are all catchwords for dupes. If
our prisoners suffered at Anderson
vile and Libby for food, it was be-
cause the Southern people were de-
priyed of food to give them by the
Overwhelming powers of Northern
hordes. III the prisoners at Ander-
Isonville and. Libby were not treated
with the kindness and consideration
which people are entitled to when
they remain at home, instead Of ta-
king up arms in bloody and desc
lating crusade against their neigh
bors and brethren, We have only to
say they got their deserts
So by the starvation of high mind
ed and brave soldiers who so gallant
ly fought for the sustainance OF Amer
ican institutions was simply the
treatment they deserved 'Got their
deseYis' @ Fa
Soldiers, when you think of your
beloved comrades who were deprived
of food, clothing and the most sig
nificant comforts of life whilst suffer
ing Imprisonment for patriotic deeds;
when you saw your comrades at An
dersonville literally starved to death,
when you saw your comrades shot
down without mercy when stepping
one inch beyond the dead line in
order to obtain 4 drop OF water TO al
leviate their dying thirst; when for
innumerable trining causes, your
comrades were hanged without provo
cation or crime; when the hot torrid
sun blistered your naked forms, when
you saw your comrades living upon
verniin, when good substantial food
was obtainable, which wanted but 4
will to give it to you; when all these
and thousands upon thousands of
other horrible deeds were seen by you,
remember the Democratic party said
yout.sot your deserts" and Anderson
vile, Libby, etc, were mere 'catch-
words for dupes." Soldiers, will you
allow such infamous men to even ask
hOp you shall vote? Will you be
'duped by their professed love for
you? NEvER,-Ex.

FRED. DoUGLAss.-As this gentle
man forms common theme of con-
versation in our city since his lecture
here, we give synopsis of his histo-
ry. The great energy of the man
who has raised himself from the low
est degradation to the highest point
Of intellectual eminence, win always
be the admiration Of the world. His
history is an interesting one.-From
his published life We collect the fol-
lowing items: His mother was me-
gro Slave and his father a white man.
Fred was reared as slave until 10
years Of age, on the plantation of
Col. Lloyd; he then went to Balti-
more to reside with q relative Of his
master, and at the age of FL escaped
from slavery. He had, meantime, Sc
cretly taught himself to read and
write. lie settled at first in New
Bedford, Mass. In 184l he attended
an anti-slavery meeting at Nantuck-
ct, and made q speech which was 50
well liked that he was invited to
take the position of agent Of the. Mas
sachusetts Anti-Slavery Society, and
in this capacity he lectured four years
in the New England States. In l845
he published his Autobiography, then
went to Europe, and lectured to
crowded houses in England, Ireland,
Scotland and Wales. In 1916 his
friends in England raised ESQ and
purchased his freedom. In l847 be
returned to the United States, and
commenced, in Rochester, New
York, the publication Of " Frederick
Douglass Paper" a weekly journal,
which he continued to edit until With
in . year or two.

SPEAK KINDLY.

j How much misery may be abatcd.
how much suffering may be removed
BY the simple tone and expression Of
the human voice! Upon the heart
that is lone and desolafe how sweetly
falls the voice Of sympathy and conso-
lation! Why is it, then, since every
thing proyes-and none are ignorant
Of the fact-that all must lay down
10 mother earth together, since all are
travellers in this highway to death
Why is it that each should be SO SPAR
ing Of that which costs him nothing.
but which might raise the dropping
spirits of his neighbor, and cheers
him on his Journeys few kind words
and kindly looks.
