II will be seen from these figures that
whereas, in 1865, the Democrats elected five
of the nine congressman, and in 1866 carried
eight of the nine Congressional districts, in
1867 they have elected all their candidates
for Congressman by majorities varying from
500 to 5000. The total Democratic majority
in this State this year was about $4,000,
though the vote pOlled was lighter than that
OF last August. Such is Kentuokys noble
response to Connecticut. .rrfot. .rIi
The important feature Of this result, how
ever, is not so much the defeat of the radi-
cals--which was to be expected--as the COM
plete TOut horse, foot and dragons, of the
"so-called" independent Democrats. 5. The
latter, dissatisfied with the action of the
regular Democratic State Convention which
met in February to nominate a State ticket,
held convention of their own, nominated
candidates for State officers, and followed up
this action by running separate Congressional
candidates in every district but one. Their
chief organ, the Louisville Democrat, blew its
trumpet vigorously up to the morning of
election day, only to find at nightfall that
every one of its candidates had been igno-
miniously defeated. 1t is to be hoped that
the bolters profting by this experience, will
spare themselves the shame of a similar
defeat at the election for State officers next
August. There are Democrats, too, nearer
the Atlantic coast who might profit by the
lesson of this Kentucky election,

The returns Of the late Congressional cleo

plete; but the majorities for the Democratic
candidates, as announced by telegraph, proba-
bly, approximate to those to be revealed by
the official canvass. Appended are the MAORI

Gerrit Smith made a speech to mixed as
semblv of black and white people at Rich
nond ON Tuesday which was full of character
atic benevolence, and contained broader ana
more sensible views than the speeches OF any
other Northern orator now in the South. lie
did not snare the South for its sins and tolnes,
for bringing on the war, or for attempting, III
some cases to run away from the restoI5s'lVi nS1i
terms of Congress-; but he blamed the NoIIh
also for its share in bringing ON the ,I Sioupie
ana for its want of magnanimity. Ihougn
,,nder the Constitution those who tsok part IN
aobtinq against the Government are traitors
tc,dav he said he was "averse to having hls
connirymen (the Southerners) godown TO pos
ta,itv stiomatized as traitors. When this STRIFE
Mad advanced to great civil war, with a de
6acfo Government, and carrying on a war as an
independent power, they were no longer trai-
tors. He wanted thus to UT them from VnelI
supposed degradation Inc Nortn, ne WouiI 'iII
cav. was under a common responsibility with
the Soutb for the late war;" After speaking OF
slavery as the cause OF the war, and the North
being equally guilty with the South for estao-
fishing and maintaining that institution, ne
added awe of the North reaped far more gain
from slavery than you did. You but held the
oow-we MIXED it, He said he was not an adj
vocate of confsoation, and advised the blacks
not to ask for it, but to seek homes by their
honest earnings. He would also relieve the
South for half-a-dozen years from direct Federal
taxes to enable the people to recover some
thing Of their former prosperity. Congress,
he said, should have appropriated ten or
twenty millions of dollars to that suffering
land. How such broad and liberal views con-
trast with the narrow and illiberal policy of
Congress in taxing the productions of the
South at a time when they most need assist
ancet How different is this speech of Gerrit
Smith to those threatening and mere partisan
speeches of Wilson, Kelley, and some other
Northern orators in the South We think
Gerrit Smith would do great deal of good
were he to follow those other speakers
throughout the South, and we recommend
him to do so. ,'ef ,oc.l .-NU #L
