Depends on which Side he Fought.

Depends on which Side he Fought.
i Politically times are lively in Connecti-
cut. The following is reported one of
many conversations that are daily taking
place between Democrats and Republi-
cans:
"Whatr' exclaimed Radical to a Dem
ocrat, stdo you mean to say that a colored
man who has fought is not entitled to
vote ~ ------
ut depends good deal upon which side
he has fought If he has fought for the
rebels, or has built their Notifications, tilled
their soil, garnereG- their crops, taken care
of their stock and otherwise willingly aid
ed and assisted our enemies, while his mas
ter was fighting against us, say most dis
tinctly that he should not be made the
equal of our Northern white soldier, any
more than the Hessians should have been
declared the equals of our Revolutionary
patriots at the close OF our Revolutionary
struggle"
| 'sAh, but my dear sir, the Southern me-
groes were compelled to do those things,
fearing the most terrible tortures. if they
refused" --
THAT may have been the case in some
instances, but it is idle to say that it was so
with the whole four millions of blacks in
the South. The fact is two-thirds of them
believed their masters would whip the
I YankeeS tney were brSd up in that belief
and it was for their own good that they
behaved as they did. Otherwise they
would have come into our lines by the hun
dreds of thousands, instead of by the COM
paratively meager and deerepit few who
did" nil ''@'js5
ut is of no use talking that way now
The colored man has redeemed himself, and
now stands forth the peer of any white
man, especially any copperhead, in the
country. Although black, he is not to be
blamed for the color of his skim" = @
"Precisely. There is no use talking about
this thing now. It is all one way. Although
Connecticut gave six thousand majority
against negro suffrage in her own State
last year, / have no doubt she will give as
great majority the other way when the
question comes up granting universal negro
suffrage in South Carolina, or any other
Southern State. That's the, way the case
stands, admit; but is it right?'
The Radical replied by saying something
about not wanting to see negro General
in the army, and that although Black Re-
publican, he was not quite so dark as to re-
quire candle to go through the streets
with. in day time, and the conversation
dropped. --

Address of #. HI. Hurd, ESQ.,, ON
Wednesday Evening.

A fair audience assembled in the court
house on Wednesday evening to listen to
the address of Hon. F. FL. Hurd, the DEM
ocratic candidate for Attorney General.
Mr.. Hurd set forth in graphic terms the
present unsettled state of the country, and
pointed to the disquiet and social and po-
litical disorder of the times.
His address throughout was able and
eloquent. He handled with a master hand
all the issues before the country, and closed
with an eloquent appeal to the people and
statesmen of the country to be guided by a
better spirit; to Danish the words coercion
and force from the American vocabulary,
and write that better word, consent, upon
our banners, and there will indeed be a
union ofsStates, because, and only because,
thereis a union OF hearts, Bucyrus Foruns.

ON'last Wednesday night, says the Var

Next year we shall expect to see the Amer
lean anniversary ball the greatest event of
the season.
We had, nevertheless, about 400 Ameri-
cans and about 150 invited guests, compos-
ed largely of the diplomatic corps. Among
the higher representatives of foreign courts
there were the Russian, Prussian and Turk
lsh ambassadors, but neither the English.
Austrian or Spanish ambassadors then OF
the ministers, charges and attaches, there
was a pretty full representation. The
grand chamberlain of the Emperor. the
7Dhke de Bassano, made a short appearance
at the ball as mark of respect from his
Majesty. AS usual, the ministers of the
other american republics were in full force,
and appeared proud to group themselves
around the American minister, and to help
] to do honor to the founder of the greatest OF
republics! L should not omit to mention
also that DR.. Kern, the representative of the
! Swiss republic, spent the whole evening at
the ball, and seemed to take a special pleas
ure in the society of so largea number of
the common republican family. General
Dix, with number of American gentle
men residing at Paris, did the honoFs to
the numerous guests on the occasions and
mad useless task in trying to make people
happy who were already as happy as they
could be. The General wore his uniform
of Major General, and the Secretary OF Le-C
cation, Colonel Hoffman, his uniform of
Colonel, so that the Legation, in its prinei=l
pal members, presented almost bellicose
appearance. But all that was bellicose was
in the uniform, apd not only the members
of the Legation, but their ladies as we'll,
made allthey came in contact with think
of everything else than war. The Grand
Hotel surpassed itself on the occasion-in
flowers, and flags, and elbow-room :, but

of Illinois, whose health is improving. 7ai,

The Death-Bed of Bishop souIe.

At the funeral services of Bishop Joshua
Soule, of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South, which were observed at Nashville
on the 9Th, very impressive address was
delivered by Bishop McTicire, in which he
gave an elaborate and eloquent sketch of
the life of the eminent divine, closing with
an account of his last moments. He said
81 was present at the hour he died, and
saw the close of his grand Christian life.
His work was done, and he waited with
patience and peace. Bis death, in all its
parts, was simple, grand, majestic. Death
is a cloud, a shadow, a darkness; he saw it
enter with a perfect composure. He said
little in his last hours. On Saturday his
situation became critical, but there was no
trepidatiorl, no uneasiness to be Atected in
his conversation; he was ready. 13 f.
'"When asked if he suffered much pain,
he replied, None at ALL I said to him, is
it all clear before you?' Yes was his an
swer. DO you understand me'?' Il do, sir,
do.' 1t was past midnight when he ap-
peared to be passing away. I questioned
him, Bishop, is it all right with you p With
that peculiar emphasis characteristic of
him, he replied, tAl1 right, sir, all rights
He was resting-leaning on Christ. He
expired in perfect quietness !; fell asleep
without groan or convulsion, and 1 could
feel no grief or sorrow as closed his eyes"

WashiUgiOn's Birthday i'm Paris
The American Ball.

Paris (Feb. 26) Correspondence of the New York
Times.] t#
The anniversary ball in honor of WASH
ington's birthday turned out very beau
tiful and very successful affair. If it did
not quite equal in point of numbers those
we were in the habit of seeing before the
war, it was still very large and very bril-
liant assemblage, The last affair of the
kind took place in 1860; then the war broke
them up, the population was changed, and
the newcomers, not knowing how hand
somely these things are done in this coun-
try by Americans, did not turn out as
unanimously as they ought to have done.
