PRENTICE on THE KEETUogY ELEcT1oS.-
With the Kentucky vote, we send . glad
greeting to the Northern Democracy. We
have fully redeemed all our promises to them.
We stand proudly beside them. We behold
them struggling in minority, but 1t is no
hopeless struggle. We see them gaming
upon their opponents, making brave head
way against them, and confident belief takes
possession of our minds that their triumph
is not far off. The people 0s the South see,
in the result of our elections, the best evi-
dence that we are resolved to vindicate and
sustain their cause to the extent OF onr ut
most power. We condemn all the atrocious
wrongs practiced toward the South by Con.
gress, and will right them if ever God shall
give us strength and the opportunity to
achieve so holy purpose.

These merchants have sold more goods this year

"The old Adrerti.er is welcome visitor to US

tween the Whites and Blacks.
: And while congratulsting ourselves that the
Wilson's and Kellcys cannot conveniently como
among us, we should remember that the greatest
friendliness now exists betweon the whites ana
blacks of this section Of country, and determine
that, 80 far us we are concerned nothing shall be
doce t9 disturb this good feeling. AS w' argued
when the w4F f;o;sd, SO we argue now, that the
grcdtest good feeling q atoGrla G exist between the
Southern whites and blacks. 1t nHs trfsa all-im-
portant in view of our labor necessities aud agi-
cultural interests. 1t is now all-important in
view of the new right of suffrage conferred upon
tts negroes by Congress. If there arc any among
us-Ee eerAqiEly know of none-Who are inclined
to impose upon negroes, ar to treat thom in such
n way as to cngcnder strife psiF'sea them and the
whites, these are, without thinking Of Il Psfhaaps
tho worst enemies of the country. It is true the
conduct of some of the negroes is often vexatiou'
in the extrcme 50 also is the conduct OF many
white nep, And our own true theory, that the
negrOes are .ap i4fcsior race, should cause US to
treat thclp with farbenpec. farbean&pec. il is no credit to
my white man to hayo .9par.els VIII nfgroes,
under present circumstances especially.
And then therc are many things tobe said iFp
favor of tue negroes. Nine-tenths of them were
s,aunchly loyal duriog ah tho gay And "gain,
they aro not at ail responsible for teiF c nFepa-

equality with the whftSs. Whatever their faults
and all races have faults--tbcy are the most
docile people in the world, end generally as trno
as steel to their friends. Those Of tho SohtheFn

The TRlygEg on THE BAILING OF Mr..
DAvIs.-The New York Tribune, the unceas-
ing demand of whose editos for justice to MIR.
Davis has made many Southern heart warm
to Horace Greeley, despite his party atfilia-
tons, concludes an article on Mr.. Davis, in
its issue of Saturday as follows:
We d., not credit the report that bail will
be required in case the prisoner shall be set
at liberty. No bail has been required Of
others similarly charged and situated, and it
were absurd to exact it Of that prisoner only
who is certain not to abscond. One who for
nearly two gears has persistently sought
trial. is not likely at tsis day to evade one by
shameful flight. There is not a man in
America who does not know that the re9ure-
meat of bail in this case would be an absurd
formality. II Judge Underwood exacts bail
at all, it should be Of the Government, that
it would, in good faith and in due time, pro.
ceed to try the accused, and not keep him in
terminably I" on the limits" when it has no
Intention of prosecuting him to conviction.
But the latest indications are that Judge Un'
derwood iRtAaas to proceed with the trial.
The following lettss from an eminent, de-
Voteu AUolltionlSt ot niahJ yerriT; HI' Ae'S1
till now been printed:
PErERBoRo', N. Y, August 81, 1866.
h President Johnson-Honored Su:-l have
this day subscribed memorial to yourself in
behalf of Jefferson Davis. l have done so
with great satisfaction, for deem his very
long confinement in prison, without trial,
an insult to the South, very deep injustice
to himself, and no less deep dishonor to
the Government and the country.
II trust that Mr.. Davis may either have
speedy trial, Or be eAmjted to bail. There
are many men who have &c sympathy with
his political views, and who opposed slavery
as stseauously as he upheld it, that would ca
perly become his bail. l am one of them.

One Blessing in Havias NO Railroad.

One Blessing in Havias no Railroad
There is one blessing at least in our having no

such obstinacy that Southern nessna;, gho.hnve
beeu all their lives in slavery, are competent to
discharge with intelligence the duties of citizen

piisi 10 themselves, hang fre and tell the negroes
to stand bacE. Squal rights for the negro with
them means equal rights ia the South. lti all
right to make them voters where thc;s Tumbcrs

bt it is all wrong to let them vote in the North
Both wiits uen and negroes-such as have

words and deeds of these nliscnieyeGs itinerants
ar. not prompted by any regard for the nsssai or
