The voice of the Nations Defenders.

THE Voice of the Nations Defenders.
Tuu soldiers and Sailors meeting, held last
night at National Hall, and the subsequent
gathering in front of the League House, con-
stituted one of the grandest demonstrations
ever witnessed in Philadelphia. There is no
mistaking the sentiment of the brave men
who perilled their lives in suppressing the
Rebellion. Their motto is Onward, not back
ward. They vote as they fought, on the side
of the Constitution, the Union, the mainte-
nance of law, the progress of free principles,
and the triumph of liberty. They are as ready
to put down an Andrew Johnson coup d6tdt
as they were to overthrow JEFF. Davis Rebel
lion. They believe, with that great Republi-
can soldier, Y. s. Grant, that this IS republic
in which the ,OiU of the people is the laO of the
land. They stand by the Constitution and the
laws, and by Congress, as the only valid
lau-snaking po,oer in the Government. Until
this great question is settled, all other issues
are impertinent aud trivial. On it hangs the
existence of the nation. They who have sup
ported the Republic on the field of battle will
not desert her at the ballot-box.
Push on the column, then Everything pre-
sages grand and glorious victory. Let the
voice of Pennsylvania, one week from next
Tuesday, be such as shall gladden. the hearts
of the loyal millions, even as did the notes of
victory from Gettysburg and Winchester and
Appomattoxl

Female suF,age. i'm Kansas.

LEAvENwoRTH, Sept. Ex-senator Pomeroy
and Elizabeth Cady Stanton spoke recently in
Lawrence in favor Of impartial suffrage. The
radical State Central Committee of Kansas ig-
nores female suffrage, to the disgust of one of
its members, who denounces their action and
says 1t is not binding upon the Republican
party of the State, and concludes as follows
1--WE look upon tt is addI ess as a very trans
parent piece OF fraud and humbuggery, gotten
up by the opponents of female suffrage with
and 10 deceive the people by trying to make
them believe the Republican party indorses
their Inconsistent, old fogy, ahd uurepubiican
doctrines. There is a complete division in the
radical party on the female suffrage question" !"

hope that no good Republican win lend his aid
to any effort to defeat Mr.. Marks. He is a
faithful legislator and gentleman of ability
and courtesy. His success as father of the
bill abolishing the Board Of School Controllers,
as at present constituted, proves him one able
to represent the interests of our city. His de-
feat would be serious evil to the influence Of
Philadelphia at Harrisburg.

A Change.

WE notice that the Copperheads are not h,s'-
rahing for the soldiers as much as they did
short time ago. They begin to talk now as
they used to when our brave boys were help
ing to whip their friends, the Rebels. They
find that they cannot use the soldiers, so they
fall to abusing them. They will be calling
them "Lincoln hirelngs" again before many
days.
