The only notice the Journal of yesterday
mad of the speech of the colored orator,
PETER II. CLARK's speech from the steps
Of the State House on Wednesday evening,
is the following, from the local column of
that sheet, and, as if purposely placed i'm
mediately over the deaths, and not where
I'VE should expect to see a notice of speech
from an orator of a healthy political Or
ganization
"Mr: Peter H.. Clark. of Cincinnati,E ad-
dressed a large crowd of people at the
West Front of the State House last night.
The crowd was called togethnrby fine mu-
sic from the colored band. Mr.. Clark pro-
dneed convincing arguments in favor of
enfranehising his race, aud they were ex-
pressed in such manner as to give entire
satisfaction to all.' 1T DDS leCu 7q.iiis gu,irl
According to the Journal. If there had
been no music there would have been no
audience, for "the crowd was called togeth-
Considering the fact that CEARK's speech
was the ablest OF all those of the Abolition
persuasion, the notice in the Journal effect
ually ''damns him with faint praise.' Had
CLARK been white member of Congress
like KELLY, or Treasury robber like
GIBSON, or an ass like FURAY and like HART,
the Journal would have slobbered him all
over with praise. Although an advocate
of Negro Equality, the Journal editor il
afraid OF it. Now we hold as rule that
has no exception, that the man that pirates
in favor of Negro equality. and asks others
| to do that which he himself is ashamed tC
do, in all that constitutes the MAN, falls fai
below the Negro. Of such is Breyet Brig

Corrupt Legislatures.

The Pittsburgh Gazette is waking up
TO the Importance and probable effect
Of the Connecticut election. 1t says,
1T mnst be confessed that the elec-
tinn indicates u reaction, not strong and
decisive, but t'sufficient TO excite inquiry
and cause remedial instrumentalities to
he sought after promptly" .
The Gazette anticipates similar re-
suit i'll Pennsylvania, and puts forth
the following as a strong reason for its
dread:
Instead of rejecting credit on the
Republican party the General Assembly
has brought that party into disrepute.
Ii has been courageous in the pursuit
of plumber, but base and cOwardly In
the defence of essential principles. 8
The composition of the Pennsylva-
MIA Legislature is moro than two thirds
Radical. aud is universally admitted to
have embodied more rascality in it's
legislation than any OF its predecessors,
in that State, which is saying good
zeal. nut lniS uecp scSeou Soii"psN
aud generalization is not restricted to
Pennsylvania. 1t prevails in every
State under Radical government. HoR-
ACE GREELEY thus exposes the villainy
and incapacity of the Republican Leg
stature of New York:
During all the many years that l
have been accustomed to observe the
character, of legislators and the pro-
ceedings of the body, / have never seen
anything to compare with the present
assemblages of representatives in point
of shamelessness, rspacity, and reck-
lcssness of consequences. Their prede-
cessors have often been noted for venai-
ity and greediness; but these people
sell their votes openly, haggle about
the price without pretence Of conceal
ment, and then boast Of what they have
been paid, and all with the knowledge
that they are within reach Of the Grim,
inal statute, and that 3 felon's cell
would DO their fate if the law should DC
enforced against them" .,-s- p
1t would seem that if the people have
not lost oil sense Of decsncy, the houl
Df remedy and relief cannot be far on
