THEIR OwN Observation-Disclosures, like
every other vile or odious, or ungodly ISM is
almost wholly thing of the Radicals. But,
as in everything else, when it is turned against
themselves, the Radicals fiereely condemn its
points. During the recent canvass in Ohio, a
spirituallst named Jillson proclaimed at a pub
lie meeting that he had just received a spiritual
letter from the spirit of Abraham Lincoln
The Radicals present called for its immediate
reading, and the speaker Of the hour gave way
to have it read. It ran as follows:
IN HE'LL, Room No Il $50.
TO the Black Republicans of Ohio:
Il am here suffering torments for my crimes
and usurparions while on earth. In these
flames am reminded ofmy great wickedness,
and send these words to you that you may take
warning. George Washington passed by me
on the other side of the great gulf but only
looked at me with unutterable Scorn. Take
warning by my fate.
Signed "ABRAHAM LINCOLN"
On finding it SO different from what they an
ticipated, the Radicals present, boiling with
rage and fury, tried to get at Jillson--whos
seems to have been merely Radical spiritl-3j
alist gone wild-and mob him. This was pre-
vented by the Democrats present, and order
was finally restored

RADICAL GERRYMyNDERING.-T Radi-

that while, by casting 275,OoO votes, they elect

The Political Year.

The elections of the year. are now
over. The result is that the Republi-
cans have lost some Of their States by
! large majorities; in all, except Iowa.
! their majorities have been. reduced.
and even when the Republican candi-
| dates have been elected, the equal
suffrage amendment, represented has
been defeated. WHAT'S the explana-
ton Of this sudden overthrow of the
party which was so confident of per-
manent power, and whose general
policy is -unQuestionably approved by
the country as it is eonsonant with
common sense?~ rs
Is it that the Republication has
not gone far enough? is the country
indignanr because the President.has
not been impeached, or Southern
property confseatcd, or equal suffrage
established by congress throughout
the county? MIR. Thaddeus Stevens
is. understood to be of this opinion.
But does~he really suppose that pub
lie opinion can be coerced by law,
and that ii the people are opposed to
a policy they can be made to support
it II Congress 9n.y passes, a bill?
This may be the opinion Of the sturdy
Pennsylvania, but hts opinionsGare
seldom those Of his party or Of the
cou ntry. she ig certainly not AFRAID
toI stand alone, and unqnestionably he
does so IN thinking that the people
have demanded more stringent meas
ures. IS.
it. It that the Republican party fas
gone TOO far, and that the county is
of opinion that the unorganized States
should have been left to reconstruct
themselves? Nothing is easier than
such an explanation. 1t IS as easy1as
saying that any body's eyes can show
him that the sun goes round the
earth. But it is by no means, a true
and satisfactory explanation because
it is easy. The Republican majority
in MASSACHUSETTS is reduced some
forty thousand. Yet We all know that
except for the issue of prohibition,
Governor Bullock would have ha9eas
large a minority as ever Soin Wis
cousin the. Republican vote is re
duced. And we know that Carl
Schurz, asradicafof the-radieals, de-
clined to- stump the State be-
cause of some prohibitory issue.
La California the corruption Of which
the Republican candidate was the rep
resentative was known, and the mere
name Of corruption hurts a Repub-
lican more than the fact of being
Democrat. In saying this we do not
wish to be,unjust; but in the State of
New York there were various Re
publican bolts from regular " can
didates who were at least supposed
to be tainted. How many Democrats
in the city Of New York refused TO
vote for candidates of the ring? In
New York the excise law and the |
canal frauds were also cardinal efe-
ments in the election. If there had |
been no prohibtcry issue, no disgust
with corrupt political intrigues' and |
the question Of the elections had been |
simply the policy Of equal rights as !
