100000 majority against Vallandig-

sufficient Intelligence to put two ideas
together, will vote IN 1867 for what
he voted against in 1868. The nom.

The Democrats have a ore.t

The Democrats have a great deal
to say about the "privileged Glass;
meaning the men who hold govern
ment bonds and are exempt from
taxation. These Democrats were ask
ed, duriug the war, to invest their
money in the bonds that they now de-
nounce as "privileged;" but they
refused to loan their money to the
Abolitionis.s to Stree the negroes"
and "pay Lincoln hirelings," in pros
ecuting an Unconstitutional war"

diers in the world; Lee was the best
General; JEFF. Davis was better man
than Lincoln; the Rebellion could
never be conquered;greenbacks would

How Do YouLike II?

Hon. Frank H. Hurd, the Demo
cratic candidate for Attorney Gener-
al of Ohio, made speech in Colum-
bus on Saturday night, the 14th inst,
in which he used the following, Ian
guage:
"Southern mothers are daily Civ
ing birth to sons, who will one day
be men; and, my Republican friends,
you may rely upon it, these men will
see to it that their fathers defeats
and wrongs are fully avenged, and
the hated stars aud stripes, the en-
blem of their humiliation and dis
grace, be reversed snd tralled in the
dust-this they will do, even if, like
Sampson, they have to bow them
selves against the pillars Of the tenn
pie, and bring it down in ruin upon
themselves.
These remarks were wildly cheer
ed by his Democratic auditors, and
the speakers word found a quick
response in the Democratic hearts OF
his audience.-Lima Gazette.

thus writes of the Compound:
The White Pine Compound is advertised

happy TO learn that the demand for IL is in

The Issues Clearly And Terseiy
Stated. ~

. E D. NJ, in letter to the New
York Times, vigorously states the is
sues OF the present canvas, the mar
row of which is:--
The Republicans plant themselves
on the doctrines of the war, and the
corollaries which follow them. l
That the confederate States were con
quered, and therefore the Recon
struction Acts OF Congress are lust
aud legitimate. g That slavery being
abolished, the negro should justly be
placed on the same ground of civil
and political rights as the white man.
3. That the finances of the Uuited
States should be conducted with the
utmost economy, but that every dol
lar of the public debt should be paid
fully without any attempts to dimin
ish its value, by. paying it with an
extraordinary issue Of currency.
These principles are plain and no
man can mistake them.
To these ideas the Democrats, un-
der the lead of Vallandigham, Pend.
Teton and Thurman oppose: 1st,
That the Reconstruction Acts are
"dcspotism'-putting the negro over
the white man-"always spelling ne
gro with two 'g's'" End, That the
negro may be free, but has no right
to vote, and is and ought to be Kept
in state ofinferiority. Sd, That we
didn't agree to pay gold for our
debts, and therefore should pay them
in currency-the result of, which
must be an immense depreciation of
currency. These are the exact
points made in the speeches of VAL
landigham and Pendletcn. The iss-
ues reduced tosthe fewest words are
whether the war was right?" "and
whether we ought to pay our honest
This is the marrow of our
whole Democratic doctrine.

THE GAINES ESTATE.

The New Orleans Republican says.-"The
death of Madame Sophie Despau, nee Car.
rere, at Biloxi, at the advanced age of one
hundred and ten years, has added another
feature of interest to what the United States
Supreme Court has decided to he the most
remarkable suit ever brought TO trial in this
country. Madame Despau was born in 1857,
when Louisiana was held by France, OF an
old provincial family, and her name will
long be remembered in connection with that
of her sister, Zulime Carriere.
ut was while under Mime. Despau's care
that zulime, when thirteen years of age,
G796) and already celebrated in New Or
leans for her beauty, was married to De
Grange, a French nobleman, who soon after
subsded into bar.keeper or syrup-makor.
Some years after, DE Grange proved to have
been married, and about the same time an
attachment sprung up between her and
Daniel Clark, the Congressman, the land
specuator, and foremost business man oil
his time. The attachment resulted in n
marriage, according to Nine. Sophia Des-
pau and another sister-according to all, in
the birth OF Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines.
"AIme. Despau, in her evidence in the
Gaines case, testified that she was present
when the marriage ceremony was performed
in ladelphia-present with third sister
--and 1t was upon their evidence that the
alleged ceremony rested, for the priest who
olIiclated subsequently, went to Ireland, the
4, nj do
destroyed What added still more to the
complication of the case was that Zulime
Carriere des Grange Clark was subsequently
united 10 Dir. Gardctte, and this during the
life of Clark.
GAS Mrs. Gaines legitimacy depended
upon the validity of Clark's marriage, tho
strain OF the whole case turned upon the
evidence Qt Madame Despau. 10 test her
veracty the evidence of some thirty,five oil
forty witnesses was taken, who had known
her while residing In New Orleans, Biloxi,
Havana, Florida and Spanish Amerca.-
But the answers were in her favor, and in
the Interpretation given in the bewildering
facts of this case by the last decision of tho
Supreme Court, her statements were taken
as correct, and an estate now valued al
S15, 200, 900 was adjudcated to her neice
Mrs. Gaines; adjudeated fifty years after
the making of the will, thirty after the com
mencement OF the suit, after six appeals tC
the Supreme Court, and when the origina
suit had been divided into five hundred
separate actions against subsequent posses
sors of Clark's estate.
"Madame Despair, though living for more
than century, and though involved three
fourths of that period in the troubles of hei
sister, did not, alter all, live to see the ter
mination of the suit, and, save $4,000 worl
OF tho contested estate yielded by Mr.. Slidel
during the recent war, none OF the contested
property has yet been recovered by its life

and might be made fatal TO the national
existence. While these usurpations were
Delng practiced, the President maintained
inc operation of martial law in Rebel states,
suspending from the right TO hold office under
the so-called State authority, whomsoeyer
he chose, while maintaining the right TO try
eiYil offenders by military commissions, and
TO punish al his pleasure. His conduct en-
couraged Rebels to murder in cold blood, un-
offending citizens IN the exercise of their
peaceful rights. Protesting to regard Louisi-
ana as a regularly organized State, he, in
violation of the Constitution, authorized the
Attorney General of that State, a notorious
Rebel, TO call ON the national military au-
thorihes to aid in the work of suppressing a
lawful and loyal assemblage OF people.
And though there was IAN absolute massa-
ere, "a murder without necessity" by IL
Rebel mob in New Orleans, no one of the
guilty perpetrators have ever been brought
TO justice or punishment While thus giving
encouragement to Rebels to suppress loyal
and lawful assemblage, he refused military
aid, when demanded by the Governor oil
Tennessee, to preserve peace and execute
thelaws. Assuming the right to require il.
legal conventions TO be held in seven States
at his pleasure, he denied the right of legal
Convention TO be held in Louisiana. While
many thousands OF loyal citizens, including
freedmen, were murdered without cause by
Rebels during his work OF reconstruction,
the President failed to cause the guilty per-
petrators to be arrested, tried or punished,
and forcibly dissolved military commission
in Virginia, sitting for the trial Of an ac-
knowledged murderer, whom the civil au-
thoritIes failed to punish, and he is to-day at
large and unmolested. He has brought re-
proach upon himself and degraded the Dig
nifty of his office by indecent harangues to
the people, and has denounced Congress as
"a body called, or which assumes to be, a
Congress OF the United States, while in fact
1t is Congress of only part of the States. "
