ValIandigham Negro Suffrage and
the Currency.
4 short time since Hon. @. L. VALLAN
DIGHAM delivered a speech at Middletown,
Mahoning county, Ohio, which has created
no little excitement among the people and
press of the country. The position he as
sumes regarding negro suffrage and the
currency are such as to excite great indig-
nation in the Radical camp. He comes
out unequivocally not only against negro
officers but negro suffrage. He says that
the negroes of Hayti have wisely deter
mined that white men cannot safely hold
Office in that country. The white men of
Ohio ought to come to the same conclusion
regarding negroes in that State. Negro
equality, he argues, must follow negro suf-
frage; and that the only way to prevent
the former is to prevent the latter. Two
years ago the Radicals denied that they
were in favor of negro suffrage; and he
expects that two years hence they will come
out in favor of amalgamation and social
equality. He reminds his hearers that two
years ago General Cox. the present Gov
ernor of Ohio, while candidate, wrote e
letter strongly opposing the proposition to
make the negroes voters, and that notwith-
standing this he was elected by the Radi-
GALS
From present appearances, if the Radi-
Gals are not afraid to join issue on such a
question, the next Presidential canvass in
the Northern States will be conducted so
as to educe an opinion from the people
either for or against the policy of paying
the national debt in greenbacks. We quote
below Mr.. VALLANDIGHAM's views upon the
finances of the country:
What is United States bond? Why so much
money-$lOO or 81, 900. Many of them-indeed,
all OF them beheve-are payable in gold vet a
large portion of them were bought at forty, fifty

IN. Register and 10. Course.

As the public are aware, it has re,
peatedly become our duty, within the
past twelve months, TO criticize, i'll nc
mild terms, the official course Of many
Radical oiice-hslders in our State.
When We have found them incompe.
te2t, extravagsnt, dishonest, vicious OF
corrupt, We have called public attention
TO the fact, always, however, producing
the proof, or declaring our willingness
70 to do, if required. In but single
cass has such requisition ever been
made. The result in that case, the FUR.
GUSoN matter, seem to have satisfied
al doubling minds of the basis upon
which the REGISTER rests its accusa'
tionS against public men. From that
time, no candid defence of Radical of
ficials arraigned by the REGISTER
has been attempted. Radical organs
have been content TO sssail the style of
our language, without reference to it's
justice or the weight OF our facts.
We have been called, "harsh," "vin-
dictive," ''maliGnant,' "obscene" and
"atrOcious," but singular as it may
seem the epithet, untrue" is by no
means a favorite with onr "loyar
cotempOraries in referring to our state
ments. AS it seems probable that the
attacks upon the course OF this journal
are now to be renewed with fresh fierce
ness, we desire TO repeat in part our
former express .ons as to the basis upon
which this paper is conducted. We de-
sire TO say that wherever we find official
raScality, meanness, inefficiency, cor
ruption or wrong, no matter what party
il may affect, we will assail it. We
will strive to be satisfied first, that the
evil aimed at actually exists, and then
ifpossible it will be exposed, Such has
been our course in the past, and the
people have approved it. Beneath an
occasional ruggedness of language or
pointedncss of epithet, they have always
found the body of truth, and so long as
We have the facts on our side, we have
nothing 10 fear from their verdict.

FROM TYLER COUNTY.

LONG REACH, TYLER Co, W. VA.
EditOrof the Register:
Is it not amazing strange that not a
Christian paper in the Moth has come
out in favor Of receiving back our
brethren of the South, although they
have freely given up slavery l wish
to ask all Christians of the North, that,
if it was sinful in these Christian mas
ters to hold their negroes in bondage,
is it not ten fold more sinful for their
brethren, through Congress and tho
military power, to cause the negroes to
rule over the whites of the South.
Who can say from the Bible that the
servant is now prepared to rule over his
master in all things If the negro rules,
and rule ne must, if the Christians up
hold Congress in their views, and who
can tell what the consequence will be !
1t looks to me that judgment: has truly
begun at the house of God.
Dear friends and kindred in Christ,
can you not pity and forgive your
brothers and sisters of the Southi They
are now in a more degraded and suffer
ing condition than any Christians have
been for the last four hundred years. If
we cannot forgive them can We expect

The General Result.

We give today the official returns OF
the Pennsylvania election. As we have
before stated, the Democrats have carried
the State and elected GEORGE SHARs,
goop, their candidate for Supreme
Judge.
We are as yet unable TO give the
official re urns from Ohio. 1t is certain
however, that the Amendment is beaten
bv from fifty TO sixty thousand; that
both branches of the Legislature are
Democratic, and that the majority on
Joint ballot is eight; that with the lille.
gal negro votes counted, HAYES major,
ity will range from thousand to sew.
enteen hundred, and that the exclusion
of this vote will elect THURMAN by a
handsome majority.

a Eitlhy Trick

We don't think the public will be
msled by the feeble effort of the Intel
!'gtncer in reply to our recent article on
the Asylum. 1t affects to presume"
that in our references to."the miserable
wretches under whose care the Asylum
has fallen into disrepute." Doctor
llILDRErH and JAMES MCGREw are
specially Gained at" So it "presumes."
The author OF that infamous iRsinua-
ton has presumption enough to "pre-
'nme" anything that is filthy and false,
and his present effort is perfectly charac-
terlstic of the man. If his psndering and
trucking have not rendered him inca
pable of knowing any thing on his own
responsibility, he knows that the par
Ties heretofore repeatedly and specifi-
rsliy arraigned in the REGISTER for mis-
conduct in connection with the Asylum,
are PINSELL, FARNswoRTH, HILLS,
hALE and FOREMAN. His effort to
shield these men by thrusting Doctor
hiLDRErH between them and their des-
rFts Is a dirty, cowardly trick, of which
10 person with manhood enough for
iair discussion or honesty enough to
admit the force of facts would ever be
guilty. The "Board" must be very
worthy bedy, indeed, when out of the
whole number, but two gentlemen can

Of JAMES MCGREw we know nothing,

never, in any way, assailed Doctor Hill

empt him from all responsibility in the
pending matter, and we desire the In.
'ett'senoer to make an effort at similar
eandor. We desire it to accept the i'm
phcatons ofits own article, that BORE

are clearly guilty of the accusations we
have brought against them. If it cannot
do that, let it discuss the question with

A RepubIican Paper on "tbe Inadeli.
ity Of Ohio"

The defeat of equal suffrage in Ohio
is disgrace and humiliation TO the Re-
publican party, not only of that State,
but the whole country. The petty vic.
tory in electing the State ticket is small
compensation. There are no excuses or
palliations 10 be offered. The Republi-
cans of Ohio have declared that they do
hot believe in equal suffrage as right.
They are willing to aid in forcing it up
on the South, in order to secure loyal re-
construction and Republican ascendau-
cy in that section, but they deny it to
their own colored citizens, because they
feel strong enough without their votes
This is the whole case, and there are
no means of warding of the derision
and contempt it provokes.-Sprinafe.d

Editor of the Register:
We again have had occasion TO give
expression to our feelings for the kind
and beneticent rule of A. |. Boreman,
which, to n person unacquainted with
the unexampled course of violence and
tyranny that he has inaugurated in
West Virginia, would rather be ascrib-
ed to the father of iniquity than to a
being possessing human form and hu-
man wisdom. and instincts, and capac-
tiles. But alas. be it said to the shame
of mankind, and toithe eternal disgrace
of West Virginia, that an individual de-
ticient of the three above named o7na-
ments of mankind is elevated to the
chief place among her people. The
name of A. l. Boreman has become in
the old county of Randolph, conspcu-
Gus for his penetration and sagacity in
discovering low, mean and detestable
characters, who are willing to degrade
their county (not themselves) that they
NAV have favor with the beast. Had
tho cess-pool of West Virginia beeu
drained to the dregs, two less reputable
characters than Marsh Crouch and
Samnel Currence could not have
been found, and these are the
men, with one less exceptional,
who hut a few days since judged the
loyalty of our coanty. They cited the
honest and good citizens of Randolph
before them, and after farce of an ex-
animation, they deprived them of their
inalirnable birthrights, those rights
which were secured to them by the
blood and toll of noble ancestry. The
liberty so dear to every Ameri-
can name, which every citizen of
America priced, has been, in Randolph
county, mOcked at by the,r exocrab' c
monsters and tramped down as an Oh
ject of contempt. Are things TO so re-
mdinf a VOICE.
