Some COppeThead rowdies attempted
to interrupt Governor Cox, by rude and
ins0ient Questioning, during his speech
on Thursday of last week. And yet
the editor of the B7ee1fy Herald has the
assurances to arraign the Chairman Of
the Onion Central Committee for not
permitting himself to be used as a me-
dium for carrying on this species of
rowdyisn. The Democratic 1oafers Who
hung about the platform, not content
with verbal Interruptions, passed MP to
General Jones several written iDterrog-
I.atories, questioning the Governor res
( pecting his Oberlin letter and his posi-
tion on the amendment. These ques-
tons did not reach the speaker for the
reasons given. All that were asked him
were answered courteously, and It
seems strange that the Democratic dis
turbers and their abettors, the editor OF
the Herald, and two or three other
prominent Democrats, were not satisfied
with one method ofbeTng rude and un-
gentIemanly. Inasmuch as they took
the liberty OF asking the speaker sever
al era U0es questions, why did not they
ask him all they wished to in the same
way? Why simply. Lecause those who
abetted the whole disturbance did not
wish to be recognized in the process OF
egging on the drunken loafers who
were Inrerrupting the meeting
For the benefit of those and All others
concerned, we viii say that we have
undeHiable authority for saying that
Governor Cox is sunequtvocally ia favor
Of the pending suffrage amendment
We say this for the benefit of both Re
pubTcans and Democrats, who misap-
prehend the Governors position, and
may in that way be influenced to vote
against the measure. He is not can
didate for Office, and his previous record
is not therefore material as defining his
position. But even if that were the case
there is no opinion expressed in the
Oberlin letter, which might not be
reasonably supposed to be so far mod
lied by subsequent changes in the po-
! litical situation, as to enable the Gov.
/ TO support the amendment heartily and
consistently This may seem strange to
a Democratic Bourbon who can never
learn anything, but it is not half as
strange as that orthodox and rabid
/ lCopperhead sheets like the Chicago
Times, Boston Post New York World,
| Philadelphia Age and Milwaukee Serts-
mel should zealously and persistently
advocate negro suffrage, and 5denounce
the ignorant masses of the Democratic
party, because they are too stupid to
see the propriety of il.

THE DIRECT IsS UE.

What order Gen. Sickles has disc.
beyed, what authority he has usurped
the people have not yet been informed
The President, in removing him, has
simply exercised arbitrary power with
out justification or excuse. Gen. Sick.
les has been removed solely because
he enforces the laws of Congress accord
ing to the letter and in the spirit the
people dictate-because the President
will not have them enforced. 1t is
war upon the laws that Mr. johnson
b begun -p ain war, under the color oil
Executive authority TO remove and ap-
point. Gen Candy, who Is to succeed
SlckIes, IS yet to be tried, and we need
not doubt that the President will try
him. In May, 1865, he was appointed
to the command Of the Department of
the Gulf, retaining it till superseded by
Sheridan, but while N that position as
sumed no responsibility upoh which
his course in the Carolinas may be
justly predicted THIS much needs to
be said-the successors of Sheridan
and Sickies, the men appointed by Au-
drew j Johnson, oauuot escape a certain
suspicion. Gems. Candy and Hancock
must be content with suspension of
judgement, and are entitled to that
consideration by their honorable record
as soldiers They will stand or fall as
they are foes or friends of the law.
We are now reiOiced to
say that ii Grants letter Co the Presi-
dent, if the news we print to-day, does
not fully prove that Gen. Grant is a
thorough Republican, it unquestiona-
bly, does prove that be is not in sympa-
thy with Andrew johnson. Mr.. John
son has oyerruled his arguments, aud
reversed his orders, and has even gone
so far as to direct Sheridan to go at

Gen. John A. Logan viii deliver an
address at a festival Of the Grand Army
of the Republic at Toledo, Sept. 10.
The yellow fever RACES terribly at
Galveston Texas
There is to be a Ssate Convention OF
Union soldiers at Richmond, Va, in
September.
Col. Frank WoIf0rd, who was arrest
ed and cashiered during the W ar on ac-
count of 8 reasonable speech abOut
President Lincoln, has received an ap-
pOintment on the staff Of Governor
Helm, of Kentucky.
1t is a significant fact that since the
late triumph of the Republican party
in Tennessee, the bonds of that State
have advanced FIVE per cent in the New
York market.
The fact has come to light that the
President has in his own employ a reg
ularIy organized corps Of detectives,
paid out Of secret service fund. These
men have been working for the Presf-
dent in all directions, attempting to get
up evidence that VIII weigh against all
favoring Impeachment. Besides, they
have been active spies upon Congress
and upon all of known loyalty in Off
ciaI circles here. The discovery of this
fact has created great corn nnent among
officers who have become ccgnizant Of
S4S hIat1SIg
JEFF Davis recently said in conversa-
ton that the Tennessee election will
probably inaugurate a war of races,
and he believed there was no other
course open for the whites in that State
than to discharge the radical blacks
from their employment.
The Soldiers and Sailors Union, OF
Washington, refused to pass resolu-
ton endorsing General Grants course
in taking Stanton's place. This was
previous to the publication of Grants
protest.
It is thought many of the Copper
heads in the lhoop-pOle regions will vote
for General Lee, believing him to be
the Virginia rebel
The gamblers of New York recently
held a convention to take measures for
protecting themselves against the en-
cr0achments of anti-gambling society.
It has been telegraphed from New
Orleans that the leYee bonds would
have been taken by New York firm
at a small discount, had not Sheridan
been removed. Nobody win now have
anything to do with them.
It is rumOred that johnson intends to
appoint John NJ. Langston, the colored
Ohio lawyer, chief Of the Freedmen's
Bureau, in place Of Gen. Howard.

There are in Ohio four hundred and
twenty thousand white voters, Repub-
lican ana DemO5ratic. 1t is now pro-
posed TO enfranchise the seven thousand
negroes IN the State who are not per
mitted to vote, and from i've to seven
eighths of whom have done honorable
service in the armies of the Union. Yet
this proposition is denounced by the
Democratic screechers as an attempt TO
Africanize the State This comes with
a pretty grace from a party which gave
1s7, ,492 votes for Vallandigbam for Gov
ernor. There are plenty of good Union
men who would as lief have JEFF. Davis
Governor of Ohio to-day as VaIIandig-
ham, and there are plenty of Democrats
who would vote for either We're lie a
candidate. Why there is infinitely
more danger of SeccsSionizing our state
with 187, ,492 acknowledgements, than
there is of Africanizing it by making
1000 additional loyal colored voters.-
But the screechers tell us if we give the
ballot 10 these, thousands of oth hers will
flock into the State from the South. 50
they prophesied concerning The aboli-
tlon OF slavery, but their prophesies
were never realized. The current Of
colored emigration will rather be in the
other direction. The reason is very
obvious. and was stated by Ex-senator
Brown the other day, in his speech to a
colored audience in Mississippi. He
labored to persuade the colored people
that the southern whites Were better
whites, and said:
SIN most Northern States the colored
men have about as many rights as you
had when you were slaves a3td LbeY are
mach Tess respected by their white neigh
bors, as general rule than go1t are au

We have heard that the pending suf-
frage amendment has been objected to
by some on The ground that its adop-
ton viii necessarily compel the admis-
sion Of colored children tothesame com
mon schools with the white children
This is not true. The present school law
provides fer the. separate education of
.eolored children, and the Supreme Court
of the State has decided in test case,
that the children of muIatt0es already
entitled to vote, cannot as a matter OF
legal right be admitted to the common
schools with white children. This deci-
sion was made by Chief Justice Peck in
1859 and holds that the Legislature has
the constitutional power to thus classi-
fy the pupils OF. common schools. Iti
therefore entirely settled that the right
Of suffrage does not carry with it the
right Of the colored voters children to
enter public schools with white child
rem. There can be no possible objection
to the suffrage amendment on this
ground.

GENERAL HAYEs.-The New York
Tribune has letter from Cincinnati
which gives the following sketch Of
General Hayes
The Republican, have been singu-
larly fortunate in the selection of their
standard bearer. Gen. Hayes was one
of Sheridan's best brigade and diYis-
ion commanders, and he fights on the
stump as he did in the old corps, by
charging boldly the enemy's position.
He was an active member of the last
and present Congress, and resigned his
seat to carry the GubernatoriaI banner
of the gallant Buckeye State. The
General has agTeeably disappointed
his friends by proving himself one OF
the best stumpers IN the country. -
When nominated, it was not supposed
he had much talent in that way; but
his speeches have given US an agreeable
surprise. His very first effort showed
the enemy the man they had to cope
with was more than their match, and,
as usual with the Democrats in such
cases. they did not attempt to reply to
Hayes, but attacked boldly, and en-
deavcred to put him on the defensive
Their ruse was partially successful,
and the General began explaining and
defending his positions but bluff old
Ben. Wade advised him to charge
the enemy, and never mind explain
ations." The advice was good, and
since then the young soldier has
been riding booted and spurred over
the doughfaces who sought to call him
and his party to account for their de-
votion to the Union during the war.
GENERAL GILMORE ON SUFFRAGE
A correspondent writing from Fremont
Ohio, the home Of Maj. Gen. @. A. Gill

this distinguished soldier to manhood
suffrage and says
Gen. Gilmore was perhaps the first
among the officers of our Government
TO give an official sanction to the exer'
else of impartial rights of suffrage by
negroes. I refer to the election for May
or of Fernandina, Florida, in aspiring
of 1865, where whites and blacks bOtE
