ANOTHER STORY THAT HAS NO END
The story of the locusts and the corn is not
the only story that has no end. Once
there was people called the southern
people, and they waged causeless and
wicked rebellion against the best govern
ment the sun ever shone upon. And there
was one southern man, and he was wick
ed rebel. This is a thrilling story, grow
ing in interest, and may be told until the
voice fails,, or the listener faints. The same
may be sasid of the following Once there
was people called the southern people,
and they rebelled against the best govern
ment the wcrld ever saw. And there was
one niger, and he was loyal 20 the best
government the world ever saw and there
was another niger, and he was loyal to the
best government the sun ever shown upon;
and there was another niger, etc.
You see the principle upon which the
thing works? The Republican papers
generally are publishing these stories as
serials, to be continued in their columns
forever and ever, world without end, amen

The Republican Party-DIsintegration

The Providence Journal, radical, in the
course of lengthy and able article, sets
out by the assertion that its party is going
rather to extremes in trying to impeach
President johnson, and also establishing
military governments, and concludes:
"The disiategration of great national
party begins Jy uery small degrees. The
alienation of few and the luHewarmness
of few more are the eddies that indicate
the turning of the tide. An election here
and there goes wrong. The party loses its
prestige and it's confidence in it's princi-
Piles. 1t at length grows desperate and
abandons all principles, until 1t is orertl.ro,on
and ruin becomes neritaJle We therefore
utter our word of caution to our Republican
friends, and say to them there is limit be-
yond which it is neither right nor safe to
go The line must be drawn and the dis
elimination must be made clear between the
wild fancies of individuals and the approved
doctrines of the party. We suffer enough
from the mere association with extreme and
reckless men; let us not be made response
bic for their extravagant schemes"
And Wendell Phillips, writing from
Washington to radical paper in Boston,
says:
THE seeds Of dissolution have been sown
in the republican party. Perhaps l should
say that the party always contained the ele-
ments of its own destruction, and that it
required the provocative circumstances to
develop them. At any rate the develop
ment is visible to the common eye, as it has
been seen by those whose habits of close OBJ
servation have given to their mental vision
a clear insight.
The debate upon adjournment and i'm
parchment was the forcing bed in which
this seed sprouted, A clever politician
here said to-day-that the party would
have split if congress had remained here
two weeks longer. The division announce
Is only question of time. THE struggle for
the neat fe,o months Is really to be achich
,etng shall remain an possession of the re-
publican organization. Politicians natur-
ally conclude that the one retaining it will
have a better start, in that it will have the
prestige Of success. For my part | belieye
1T may be more advantageous, so far as pur-
lty OF action is concerned, to organize anew
and take fresh start. Success will in all
probability, be built on frmer basis, if the
radicals will begin with traditions or policy
The Connecticut election will widen the d.
vision On the whole it is conceded here
that the republican defeat ,riW help the
radical icing"
"a house divided against itself must
iall,' and we think Mr.. Phillips is doomed
to disappointment as far as the radical
wing" is concerned. If We can have fair
election in the next Presidential contest,
there will not be enough left of that wing
to say prayers over.

HONOR TO WOMAN.
AFTER sCHILLE4-A LONG DISTANCE

Ehret die Frauen, sic fechten die Zoepfe,
Zieren NIT Baendern die lieblichen Koepfe.
Heben der Liebe elastiche Metz,
Haeufen durch Sparsamkeit irdische Schaetzc,
Nadeln die Hemden und stricken den Strumpf,
Bieten den Maennern entsehieden den TRIUMPH.
Honor to women they braid up their tresses,
Deck off their persons with ribbons and dresses,
Throw out Loves fish nets as if twere
pleasure,
Hoard with economy misery treasure,
Sew I'D our shirts-aye and knit us our hoses,o
And trump our best cards while they turn up
their noses.
Honor to women! They play at intriguing,
Always the truth land some hes) softly
speaking,
They drum the piano, they sing and they fiddle.
They dance, they crochet, and they tease and
they NEEDLE,
Besides, they make flowers Zone don't know
them from nature's)
To trim up their bonnets and set off their
'faytures."
Honor to women! they darn and embroder
With affectionate glances our hearts they dis
'Dry goods" they buy, do the ironing and
washing
They draw and illuminate"-white, red, and
yellow,
And make each poor husband lunatic fellow.
Honor to women they're gymnasts and
Shooters
Swimmers and soldiers, and riders and tutors.
With slaps, scratches, and pinches their men
they environ,
And under silk petticoats wear hoops of iron
thnrpc al h1rn auQn fhpIy-
shoeses,
And give the slipper and slip when they
chooses.
Honor to women they're regular busters,
They sew on our buttons, and make us our
busters.
They work at the German like gh-pressure
steamers;
And firt--O Jerusalem! can't they like
screamers
And when death at last drives them into 8
pocket,
They shoot up to bliss like twenty-pound
rocket;
Perhaps!

Radical IS. Radical.

The recent scene in Congress in which
Butler charged his brother radical, Bing-
ham, with being murderer, and to which
Bingham rctorted by calling him bottled
up hero to be fed with spoon having
reference we suppose to the spoons Butler
is said to have parloined at New Orleans
bids fair to become eclipsed by two brother
radicals in this State--Ruble of the Madi-
son Journal, and Booth, the original seces-
sionist and law breaker.
A few weeks ago, Booth asked and
received permission of our State Legisla-
ture to come before it and advocate his
claims arising out of the Glover rescue trial,
in speech. On coming before that body,
the radical members thereof were much
chagrined that in addition to advocating
bis claim be made serious charges of swind-
ling against the editors of the State Jour-
mol, the radical organ at Madison, in which
he proved Ito his own satisfaction at least)
that they swinded the State on printing
contract to the amount of thousands of
dollars. To which the Journal retorts:
"When the Assembly, by resolution,
gave the use of its hall to beastly old
satyr who conceals his goatish hoofs and
shanks under the garb of man, and who
cloaks his foul and lascivious appetites
under loud professions of devotion to God
and humanity, that body had no reason to
expect any other result than the disgraceful
sceae which followed. Men who dare face
lion will shrink from encountering a
skunk Many public man and politician,
disliking and loathing S. Nj. Booth, has
been inundated by him into acts violative
of his own judgment and conscience, rather
than incur the INSCRIPTIONS scurriity
which would follow refusal. By thus
practicing upon the fears of some, by fiat
tering the ambition of others, and by the
use of plausible sophistries with the more
simple, he succeeded in lobbying through
the very act under which he now asserts
that the State is bound TO pay him 5 900
immediately, and $50, coo more whea he
chooses to demand it,

THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE NEVER DID
RUN SMooTH.-An unsuccessful attempt at
elopement has excited some little emotion
in country town not far remote from In
dianapolis. A freedman fell in love with q
young lady, who recrirocated the attachment.
The parents opposed, and an elopement was
decided upon. At midnight, on March
oath, the gay Lothario proceeded to the
house, bearing ladder on his shoulders.
The window was raised, the fair damsel
emerged, extremities foremost, and began
the descent, when her hoopskirt caught in
the window sill. Jules was appealed to for
help. At this copjuncture, the irate nam
ma appeared in robe de nuit, and with one
desperate pull brought the wayward daugh-
ter within the maternal arms. The alright
ed hero quilted the scene without parting
word, and has not since been heard OF or
seen in the vicinity.

The Negro Vote-Who will get 1t at
The South.

The radical papers commence to vince
because there are signs and potents that
the Southern people will accept the recon.
struction act, odicus to them as it is,
and not only freely allow the right of sui
frage to the negro, but, what is still more
alarming TO the radicals, will solicit the
negro vote The radical papers from day
to day TEEN with articles in which the
idea Of Southern negro voting for any
other than praise God barebones' candi-
date is ridiculed and the Southern white
people slandcred even more than they were
previous to the war.
That the Southern negroes, in the coun-
try at least, where they are in measure
out OF the pernicious range of the lazyfreed-
mems bureau, will vote for their old mas
tiers nearly unanimously, cannot be gain
sayed, for there is no apparent cause why
they should not. The Southerner under
stands the negro character much better
than the Northern radical, and can speak
to him with far better success; besides the
Southerners are far better scholars and
electioneering speakers than the mere
adventures who make it their business to
live in the South for the purpose of con-
trolling the negro vote and writing sensa-
tion reports to Northern radical newspa-
pers and seiziEg upon every crime that is
committed, and that would be committed
if there was not negro in the country, as
an evidence that the Southern people are
no. ft to rule Themselves and are lnn,mlcai
to the negroes as race.
With no principles of Sta'e IN the nrs'
place, nothing but the lone idea, the fadl
calls are commencing to see that the nave
oyerdone the thing, and that with ut gro
suffrage fully allowed in all the slave States,
their party will die out for want of nutrition,
or for the want of some specious humbug
TO gull the people with. Well may they
vince, especially as in conjunction with the
spirit of the Southerners, whereby they
will divide at least the negro vote with the
radicals, the Northern people are waking
up to the crimes, enormities and monarchial
intentions of the leaders of the radical wing
of the Republican party.

REJECTED. The Radical Senate has re-
jected I. ". Sweeney as Major in the reg
ular army. Cause why, he is Fenian and
made raid as such on Canada. He lost
an arm in Mexico fighting fol the United
States, and in the late war there was
scarcely battle fought west of the Ale
ghenies but that he took gallant part in,
yet this honorable conduct did not save
him from being rejected by radical Senate.

that all men should be free, white as well
