The Candidates Oath.

The law requires that every candidate for Con-
gress and the Legislature in this State, take and
subscribe the Candidates Oath, before some Justice
and file the same in the office of the Secretary Of
State before the day of the election We have re-
peatedly published this fact, the oath and the law
and if candidates neglect it, it is their lookout.

Threatened WITH the Law.

The Rebels are threatening the Radicals with the
law after the election, forgetting that the law can
be resorted TO by the Union party likewise. Let
our friends keep the names of all who offer them
brides, or who seek TO in'idate them, and let the
Grand Jury pass upon their cases. 1t is strange
that these traitors should wish to SO before our
corrupt and incompetent Judges" with PFoseeu-
lions against Radicals

Anotber Blow.

We fear that the rebel journals wiz drop Gen
Grant like hot potato after the pubcetion Of the
late batch Of military dispatches !:
Itseems that asker Gov. Jenkins address to tie
people Of Georgia. in which he abused pon-action
under the military bill, and during his absence in
Washington wherehe was urging injunction appli-
cations, Gen Pope went 50 far as to write an order
deposing him from office, without naming bis sue
cessor which be forwarded to Gen Grant for his ap
proyal. Before receiving any reply, however Gov.
jenkins returned and made such explanations and
pledges to Gen. Pope that he withdrew the conteu-
plated order. Gen. Grant forwarded the order to
sins Secretary Of War with the following indcfse
msnts 0 81 70 ftlTS aEs
Respectfully forwarded TO the Secretary-0 Of War
for his information. The telegrsphic dispatch
herein inclosed shows that Gov. jenkins, Of Geor-
gia has given such pledges to the Commander Of
tie Third District as TO induce him to withhold for
the present the suspension Of the Governor. The.
conduct of Gov. Jenkins demonstrates however
how possible it is for Disconnected civil officers Of
reconstructed States to defeat the laws Of Congress
if the power docs not rest with district Command,
ers to suspend their function; in some way. 1t
seems clear to me that power is given in the bill for
the more efficient government Of the rebel States
to use or not at pleasure Of commander the provis-
onal machinery set up without the authority OF
Congress in States to which The reconstruction act
applies There being .Ioubb however, on that
point, l respectfully ask an early opinion on the
subject If the power Of removal does not exist
With district commanderss then it viii become ne
cessary to take refuge under that section Of the bill
which authorizes military commissions. ,e,

A CORRESPONDENT of Harper's Aaga-
cine, at Brookfield, Missouri, furnishes
the following account of an occurrence
that took place during the winter of
1861, when the Federal army was
stationed in and around Chattanooga
Although the male inhabitants in
that region opposed to the sway of
our common Federal Uncle, the women
were disposed to Unionism, and one of
the results of this sentiment on the part
of the gentle sex was a disposition to 90
in strong for everything in the way of
dances. The junior officers, and some
times the seniors, reciprocated this ad-
mirable feeling. Among the subalterns
was Lieutenant of a Pennsylvania reg
imenJ who was a great lady-killer, and
prided himself thereon. On one occasion
this sanguinary young man found a
young lady who could waltz-a rare ac-
complishment' among tire rustics of Ten
nessee and Georgia. He was in costa
sizes and, as the damsel was quite good
looking. paid her any number of compli-
menis on her beauty. In fact, there
is no knowing where his fattery would
have led him If he had not been brought
up all standing by a brier statement of
facts, which was as follows: La me,
strangerl you call me good-looking nOlos
Why, you just ought To have seen me
before / had the dEdrrhed!'

THE usual place of resort for Dublin

Sauce for the Goose Not Sauce for the
Gandar

The Legislatures of two of the Northern States
have lately voted down proposition to confer
upon their negro population the right of suffrage
In tie New York Assembly, but few days
since when the Constitutional Convention Bill
was under consideration, proposition was
made 10 allow the negroes of the State to vote
for delegates to said Convention, but. strange as
rs it was offered. Now it will be recollected that
this same body very recently transferred the
Hon. Roscoe Conkiing-who never fails to sup
port the colored side Of the question-from the
House of Representatives to the United States
Senate. And more than this, majority of this
very Legislature are in favor, and have used all
the means within their reach TO force negro sniff
rage on the South, and to keep the Union divi-
ded until they consent to go side by side with
tine negro to the balot-box.
Would this be the course of men who are hon.
est in their professions of respect for Sambo?-
Could any honest man who favors negro suff-
rage in the District of Columbia, refuse it his
support in New York? We think not but we
think now, just what we have always believed.
tGat the hepuollcan pirty,.fro its inception,
has been fraud, and the course of the New York
Legislature is but another added to the ten thou
sand evidences of it. While the Republican
party of the North are urging their Republican
brethren of Mary land and other States to wipe
from their statute books every thing that looks
to distinction of color, they steadily refuse
everything in their own States which looks to
the same end. This is kind of consistency
which does not appear to US very praiseworthy,
yet our Maryland Republicans appear to approve
of it. They seem TO think that it is perfectly
right to do in Maryland what ought not to be
done in New York; and that although the
ICheevers and Beech rs do not desire to have ne
gro suffrage among them, yet it is all right to
force it upon Maryland, the South, and the Dis.
trict of Columbia, and that, in fact, sauce for
the goose is not always sauce for the gander.
