~ The democrats are taIkinp

ES The democrats are talking OF
contesting the election of Gov. HAYES,
alleging that black men voted for him
in violation of law. A contest in such
cases must be tried by the Senate, and,
as that body is democratic, there is no
telling what they will not do to obtain
power.
These "negro votes" as they are
termed, are, under the proper judicial
Interpretation of our Constitution, legal
votes, and, if they are thrown out by
the Senate, it will be such highland
ed dusurpation, and show such degree of
political madness, as to even shame
Andy johnson. Ever since the deci-
sion of the Supreme Court defining the
meaning of the word ,ohite in our Con-
stitution, in some portions of the State,
this class of persons have yearly exer-
cised the elective franchise; but this
year, feeling that their race had an I'M
usual interest in the result of the pend
ing Constitutional Amendment, and
knowing themselves to have been de-
clared legal voters by the Courts of the
State, they, everywhere, went to the
polls and voted. 1t was understood BY
both parties, before the election, that
they would vote, and SO well under
stood, and SO generally acknowledged
that they were legal voters, that some
of the democratic candidates solicited
them for their votes. Whether they
got them, or not, we do not know. But
it shows that all considered them voters.
But now, in order to crafty little
party spite, and as an excuse for COM
mitting a great wrong upon the people
of the State, in declaring the election of
certain candidates void, the democracy
claim that these voteszwere illegal, and
should not be counted. OF course, the
Senate, SO far as the State ticket is con-
cerned, and the Senate and House both,
so far as the return of members to
either body are concerned, have the
result in their own hands, as both are
democratic. In case they do it-thraHs
out these "more white than blsck
votes, and thus elect those whom the
people defeated -we hope to hear no
more about the "usurpations of Cons
gress"-a ''so-called Congress-" &c..
This will be long stride ahead of any
thing ever charged against that loyal
body. -

Mr. EDITOR

Mr. EDIToR:-
With your leave
will drop my friends in old Gallia a
few lines. We started from Patriot
Sept. 9th, got through on the 2lst-
having laid by two Sabbaths We
arrived here all well and are yet we'll,
and also well satisfied. We find it
very healthy here this fall. As to
the country here, do not pretend
to say that it is the best there is, for
various reasons, though, think it is
better than some others for certain
classes of people. In the first place,
this country seems strange to one
from old Gallia, there being such
contrast in the way it lies, though the
timber being the same. This is the
best divided country for prairie, of
any 1 have ever seen-being fully
half timbered, and is generally roll
iAg, has dark, loamy surface from
one to three feet deep, and then of
a mixed or cream colored clay
The timber soil is said to be the best
for wheat, and raises the heaviest,
fiintiest article. 1t has been very
dry here the past summer, though
corn is tolerably plenty. Some say
their crops will average so bushels
per acre; they ask from SO to 60 cts
per bushel. Wheat, 80; oats, 35 to
40 cts. Fat hogs cts per pound,
and they have a good share of them
Milk cows from $50 to $35 per head
Horses are cheap here. Land is on
the rise here. ranging from 81 to S25
per acre. There is some railroad
land here that can yet be bought on
good time; also, plenty of unim-
proved land-both timber and prai-
rie. There is considerable game
here yet, a man killed nine deer last
week. Prairie hens, turkeys, quails
and rabbits abound by the thousands.
have been running about consid
erably since I came here, and have
known of but one case Of ague. This
country is settled by Buckeyeans and
Germans, no Irish here.
will bring this epistle to a close
by giving my friends my post office
address, and if any are desirous of
asking questions, they shall be an
swered. JEPTHA CLARK,

most patriotic body of men have ever seen
assembled at the. Capitol during my dozen
years of public service, wisely rejecting the
ill-advised policy Of an Executive, whose
highest ambition and desire seem to have
been to destroy the party that had elevated
him to power, proposed q Constltutionai
amendment, embodying great principles,
that they deemed should be Embedded IRE
versibly in the National Constitution as fit
ting guarantees for loyal reconstruction. AL
though Endorsed overwhelmingly by the 10y
al States at the ballot-box, the rebel States
hardening their hearts, spurned and rejected
it, and scoffed at its trainers and indorsers.
And then guided, as believe, by the sane
Providence which gave our armies victory
after victory, as soon as the nation had writ
ten "Liberty for all'' upon our banners, Con-
gress enacted the Military reconstruction
bills of March 2 and March "a, opening the
ballot-boxes to the loyal, regardless OF
race or color, DISTINGUISHING for the present
the leaders of the rebellion, and laying down
terms, on which the rights forfeited by this
bloody war could be resumed, and this firm
ness and devotion to the right is bringing
forth its legitimate fruit, with an alacrity
unexpected to many, and with an acquies-
cence expected by but few The vast ma
jerity in the South are ignoring all their life
long prejudices, and Fastening to accept
these terms, nor need l say to you that hav-
ing carefully and hastily elaborated these
laws, having passed them, and then repass-
ed them over the inevitable veto OF the Elk
ecutive, the great party which has thus be-
come responsible for them intend to stand
by them faithfully and literally, if their terms
are complied with by the rebel States in
good faith and without evasion. (Applause.)
They would be branded with dishonor and
their fame furnished forever if they did not.
But it is a party whose plighted word to
the people has never been broken, and will
not be now regret, indeed, that Mr.. Sum-
ner's amendment requiring provisions in the
new Constitution for universal education
as acondition of Reconstruction. did not pre-
vail, but hope the good sense OF the South
ern people will establish it voluntarily, in
surfing them warmer welcome as they re-
turn to the Council Board.
After reviewing the action of the Repub-
lican party, and paying tribute to the prin-
ciples by which it had won its signal tri-
umphs, Mr.. Colfax closed his speech as fol-
lows:
"Our centennial anniversary of the De-
claration of Independence will find us as an
entire nation recognizing the great truths of
that immortal Magma Charta; enjoying a
fame wide as the world and eternal as the
stars, with prosperity that shall eclipse in
the future all the brightest glories of the
past"
At the close of his remarks Mr.. Colfax
was greeted with renewed applause. On mo-
ton of Mr.. Legrand B. Cannon, the meeting
then adjourned for the purpose OF giving
the members an opportunity of being intro
dued to their distinguished guest. A COLA
ton was then prepared, and the festivities
were prolonged till late hour.

MOVEMENTS AMONG WoRK1NGMEN.-
Facts show that just at this time the la
boring classes of all civilized nations are
in a ferment, and are demanding better
remuneration and shorter hours of work.
In Paris alone thirty thousand tailors
are on strike; in London eight thou
sand of the same craft are demanding
more wages. Scores of other trades are
disorganized for the same reason, and
the movement is spreading to the entire
laboring community. Even the agri-
cultural laborers of England-the most
ignorant and stupid peasants on earth,
not excepting the plantation negroes
have actually demanded enough more
to give them another pot of porter per
day. In this country, high prices have
led to very general striking, and the
eight-hour-law agitation has resulted in
riots and great industrial disorganiza-
ton in several of the western States

The subject of registration in tho
Southern States was considered in Cabi
net session to-day, and it was determin-
ed that an order should be sent to Gen.
Sheridan directing him to extend the
time for registering in his District, so
as to enable the Registers to get the
benefit of the Attorney Generals opin-
ion. and, if need be, revise their action
in accordance with that opinion before
closing the registry. The Attorney
General has been so entirely occupied
with his onerous and absorbing official
duties in the Supreme Court that he has
not been able to devote the requisite
time and labor required to consider the
subject of disfranchisement under the
Reconstruction acts. To complete the
work, it becomes necessary to examine
the various statutes ofthe several South
ern States, and it is understood that Mr..
Stansbery will be prepared to submit
his opinion to the Cabinet on Tuesday

vention of the State, which has been in ses-
sion here for two days, adjourned to day
The delegates stated that in many instances

The second resolution expresses conf
dence in the acts and orders of Generals Pope

The third resolution says that in the event of
the discharge of colored people by their en-
ployers for deciding not to become their po-

REPUBLICAN MEETING In WAYNE.

On Saturday the 4th inst, in accordance
with previous announcement, large assem-
blage of citizens. mostly colored, met in the
Courthouse. The meeting was organized
by appointing as chairman, Mr.. Arnold
Howell, and Mr.. Simon Sasser, Secretery.-
Mr.. ]. E. O'Hara entertained the meeting at
considerable length, giving some wholesome
advice and eliciting the approval OF most, if
not all, of the white men present. 1t was
concocted in the meeting by a few of the
friends of the lost cause to call out Mr.. Will
liam Robinson to follow Mr.. O'Hara and to
this call that gentleman very promptly res
pended He commenced by bestowing APP
propriate eulogiums on the very commenda.
BILE strain in which Mr. O'Hara had address,
ed them, and then branched off in praise of
Southern chiYalry in general, and the old
slave owners in particular, and took consid-
cradle pains to make the impression that the
old master was, par excellence, the colored
mans best and only friend. And to prove
that Northern radicals were not so strongly
in favor of doing full justice, brought up the
very analogous @ case of Indiana. Mr.. R.
dwelt with much complacency on the peace
full condition of the country, and threw out
some inundoes against political tricksters,

folks were obtuse and uncharitable enough
to believe he intended to apply to
brother Peh OF course. Mr.. R. is quite in
nocent of these deductions and can in no
wise be held responsible for the dark surmis-
ing Of this lateiy-held-to-be accured race of
Ham; but it would appear as if the gentle
men of color had resolved to misunderstood
him throughout, as they say they take all his
professions of friendship as sheer CANNON.

Mr. John Robinson next mounted the ros-
trum and in the few remarks he made seemed
as if he had imbibed the dark surmisings of
the eolored peeple-expressed his doubts in
the sin cerity Of that tender friendship so very
disinte restedly Offer ed-referred to some of
the murders and robberries committed on
the colored race, and for the peace now so
happily prevailing, broadly insinuated that
it might be owing to the presence of color
ed troo ps rather than the overweening fond
ness so recently manifested for the colored
man. Mr.. john Robinson boldly proclaim
ed who the great Republican party is. and
after honestly telling the negro that he must
look to that party, and to that salone, for
support and protection, he recommended
them to act upon the advice given by Mr..
O'Hara to avoid the whisky bottle, and to
live as far as possible, void of offence towards
God and man. He concluded his remarks
much applauded by his colored auditory, and
the men OF no color said-nix. URRAU.
