The Greensboro Monitor and the

In an article on Kentucky politics
and our connection Herewith, tue
Greensboro Monitor says: The JOUR-
NAL is for % negro suffrage, i(21 mis-
cegenation, (3) coufscation, (4 terri
torializing, and, in short, o. destroy

Southern States and giving that sec.
ton to the negroes and Yankees, and
the remainder Of the country over to
Abolition despotism.. ,..,,q
Although differing widely from our
contemporary on political questions,
our relations have been Of friendly
character, and we have never hereto
fore seen any disposition to treatnus
unfairly. We claim that we are en-
titled to, the proof ofithe five foregoing
allegations, and call upon the Moni-
tor to make good It's assertion. We
tender the free use of the files of the
JoVRNALffor yearspast, and ask our
contemporary to prove. by them any or
all of the charges We have no ex-
plantations or apologies to make for
our past course, and do not propose
70 abate our warfare upon the Rebel
democracy, but would prefer that the
principles we advocate be not misrep.
resented. Will the Monitor give the
JOURNALS denial place in its col
umns?

A DEAR PRISON FRIEND p HEARD
FROM! Lit
+" More Thanks Than Money !"

We congratulate the .Sentnel-on-
the Border On its first response to the
secret circular addressed to MY
dear Prison friends. One friend, at
least, writes from Farmville, Virginia,
who, while heis verbose in his expires
sions of admiration for that paper,
seems to be q little tight, " in the
way of money matters. He frankly
confesses THAT the people in this
country Virginia] are very poor
since the war, and money exceeding
ly scarce, almost as scarce as it was
at Johnson's Island, and you know
that was Uery scarce article there,
more so than anything else, except
'whishy'"
The last sentence, had we been
doubtful as to the genuineness of this
response, removes every suspicion.
The feeling manner in which the
" scarcity of whisky" is alluded to,
proves Enthusiastically, that the writer
was a prison friend" and endured
the horrors Of Johnson's Island, ag-
gravated a thousand fold by the
scarcity of money and short allowance
of grog. We trust, at Farmville,
that while money IS scarce, whisky is
plentiful, and may be had for the
asking.
It is truly distressing to learn that
men from the West are hiring old
Virginia negroes to work on their
farms. That is so different from
what it used to was!" We have no
doubt the negroes could be used even
in old Virginny, and but few years will
pass away until the old Dominion
would give millions to have them
back again cultivating her lands and
working her factories.
We are glad to see that our prison
friend" don't care what Congress does.
He says he is like Daniel in the lions
den: @
"Now, [ don't care d-n for the
lion, and don't suppose the lion cares
a d-n for me. Things can't get much
worse than they are now don't care
what they do | don't care what sort Of
bills they pass. II don't keep the
people from getting married. | never
heard of as much marrying in my life,
but I have been unsuccessful so far,
butlI hope some of these days tofbe
successful candidate, and wish you the
same good luck.
We have no hesitation in giving it
as our solemn, unbiased opinion that
paper backed up by such moral and
financial aid as seems to beTofered by
our dear prison friend" aforesaid,
deserves success it does not attain it.

they wish. The colored people have
been SO much better treated in Ten

States, that they will hire to Tennes-
seeans at less wages than to others.
Their enfranchisement will now add
largely to the laboring population of
Tennessee at the expense of the ad-

them during the war. 1t were better
for these papers to attack the plat

fairly and honestly the questions at

ALtterary Candidate.

The Republicans of the Second
Congressional District in Connecticut
have honored literary merit by nomi-
mating Cyrus Northrup, Professor of
rhetoric and English literature in
Yale College, an honorable position
for man thirty-two years of age to
occupy. He has figured in political
life as the Clerk of the State Senate
and House, and as editor of a New
Haven paper, and is well known to
the people of the State. He is said
to be powerful speaker.

Kentucky Politics.

The Owensboro Monitor and other
Kentucky papers are considerably ex-
ercised about our expo sition Of the
record of JOHN YOUNG BROWN. The
Monitor even intimates that we may
be visited with personal violence at
the hands of this g gallant and elo-
quent champion of the Democratic
cause, if we do not cease our attacks
upon him. 1t would be in much bet
ter taste for these friends to devote a
little attention to proving that our
charges are not true. But that. is
just what they will not do, for it is
because of Browns radical rebel
principles that they boast " the people
of the Second District will send him to
Washington by the largest majority
ever given to any one in the district"
Itsis possibly true, as they say, that
the JOURNAL 8 attacks upon him will
help him, because it proves conelu-
sively that he has always been an ul-
ira and unrelenting rebel, and never,
since the inception of the rebellion,
had solitary feeling of sympathy for
the Government In its struggle with
the monster treason; and we regret to
acknowledge that majority of the
voters in the Second Kentucky Dis
trict like JOHN YOUNG BROWN the
better for it. es saea'ai
1t may be true, as these papers say,
that the Union party of Kentucky
will have to look for its chief strength
in the mountain regions of the State;
but there are many true and loyal men
in Western Kentucky, who will sup
port the principles enunciated, and
the candidates nominated at the
Union State Convention of the 18th
Of February. The Union men of
that State have cut loose from the en-
tangling alliances. which have hereto
fore encumbered them; and hereafter
they'ar allied to the great National
Union party, whiehzcpntrols the Cows
eminent, and will enforce its authori-
tyanl every part of the nationaoItis
henceforth the party of PROGRESS and
growing strength. Itimay be defeated
atIthe coming election, but it will be
the better prepared, and stronger, for
the next contest; and its final triumph
is one of the assured events of the
future. ss a-uaa
It is not the part of wisdom for the
so-called Democratic papers of Ken
lucky to treat the Union organizations
with ridicule and prescription. The
Louisville journal spoke truly when
it said, in late number, There is
no sense in despising or affecting to
despise the Radical power in Ken
lucky. IF the voteifor United States
Senator IN, the legislature egisl q " Of Ken
lucky was an Indication, or proxi-
