Ma iEDfpoR s-iareat as are the pros
poets for all kinds of fruit this season, yet,
that noted apple, well known in shoddy
poetry as the sJe6ersoais Dduidais species,
is, tsad 70 say3 about to be an entire failure
every where! ;ssaiilegs isa.s'le73. re sxaa
It seems there is no soil in the, United
States cougeuiai to its growth. For two
long years It had fair trial in the prolific
grounds around Fortress Monroe. Holt.
Stanton. Chase and other famous horticul-
turists, dug about it most assiduodsly. and
even dunged It by times, but all to no pur-
pose. Withefs itswoald to the great grief of
all whose hearts were as acid as the apple.
lAtiast Greeley said, oWhy should it be al
lowed longer to' cumber the ground? ? 1t
must be dug up--uothing good can grow
stitutiOn and the exercise of justice." So,
off he went with his ak, and cut the tree
down, and great was the falF of tin the
opinion of ALI "loyaln men. Tue Leagues
especially were sorely chagfined. They
had waited and fabored so \ long, to
taste Its fruit, and now this rash Bondist
Greeley had forever dashed their hopes
They were astonished TO see how soon the
= sour apple tree''s Withered. awayt and
grieyed that. In the midst of the remarka-
BILE. prospects Tor other fruit of every de-
scription this autumn, this tree alone should
be barren, Its fall, too, it seems, has stirred
come of the churches TO indignation and
wrath against the wicked axman. In the
M E. Church in this vicinity, on last Sun
day. the gospel was torgoten in che zesloi
one of the local ministers in persuadiDg
all the dear, s loyal brethren" who had
through his own agency few weeks be-
fore subscribed for the N. .Y.Tribsse, to re-
woke their subscriptions And anathemas
long and hot were hurled at the bold

descendants OF the old 1Pharisees these
Radicals are. How they are now lauding

letters" as they call them. How selfish
that party is No mater what your prin.

did fiagilate poor Raymond and Beechel
last fall till they both were compelled Il
yelp pecaUiuaus because they expressed
opinions less selfish than those of thei
party. Through lust of power they keel
the Union dissolved, and place at an enor
nous expense to the people of the North ,
standing army in the South, for no othel
purpose than to SECURE the suffrage of tht
Ignorant negroes. Were JEFF. Davis himsel
to manifest any signs of sympathy for thi
Radical party, they would laud him to ths
skies: JEFF. may in time do this, and ther

But, | firmly believe that this DESTRUCTIVE
wane of Radicalism has reached the maxi
mum point OF its outward flow. 1t is ebb
iHg-aRd all the power that springs from
the love of place and plumber, cannot pre-
ntitsreturns to its old constitutions
limits.
There are scores of conservative Repub
icans in each township in this region, whit
solemnly declare to the writer and hi
friends that they will not vote for negro
suffrage this fall, nor for q single man OF
the Radical ticket who is in favor of it,
They say they are tired of and therefort
opposed to, the sunderment of this Union
high taxes, freedmen's bureaus, New Eng.
land domination, negro equality, politica
preaching, military satrapry. Congression,
al tyranny and many other measures nov
advocated by the Radical party. When Wa
tell them they will be whipped in,'e they
say.'no; we win snow you our ticketson tn,
election day. j do think negro suffrage vii
fail BY 10000 of atmajority, If other part
.ofthe State do as well for the white mani
ticket as we will do in this section of Ohio
] can assure the readers of The STATEsAfAl
that the sourapple treeof Radicalism will
not yield by 80 per cent. its usual amoun
of bad fruit IN next October. Mark thi
prediction. Our -fanatical friends hav'
eaten of this sour fruit till the teeth of tn
people of the whole zlaud have beeI
set on edge-and By its fruits W
know enough of 1t m to abandon i
forever. The, fiat has gone forth, cut |

for Governor, what - fun it vii
be to see him on the stump
swallowing his head between his shoulder

Phoebus! what Governor Sam. wou
make! And what contrast between hir
and the noble FhurmanAFhe lion and TT
Duran gsoutang! The eagle and the buz
zardi yThef elephant and the aape-mos
striking emblems are these animals aan
men of the two parties they respectivel,
represent. Let the people see them, hea
tbsIn and Judge for fthemselves-and the
win they hang sboddyon that sour appl
tree on which JEFF. Davis was not. hanged
