The editor of the Cincinnati Gazette,
the most ultra radical sheet in the west,
pays his compliments to Irish citizens, in
the following language:
Is there an orphan asylum to be
burned? Irishmen are the foremost in
the work. Are negro women and child
rem to be III ordered? Democratic leaders
employ Irishmen to commit murder. Is
fraudulent voting to be done! Irishmen
are used for that purpose. L. an assault
to be made upon free speech? The reck.
less and impulsive Irishmen are put for
ward BY leading democrats to throw stones
and risk the consequences. Are process
sions to be assaulted Irishmen are
sought to do the work. In fine, Irishmsn
have permitted themselves to be used first
to protect and defend slavery, and now
that slavery has been destroyed, to uphold
and perpetuate the spirit of the internal
institution"
Let every Irishman read this and treas
ure it up as the spirit which animates the
radical party. And why this language
The Gazette editor has failed to ~heedle
the Irishmen of Ohio into the support Of
it's party, and hence commences his abuse
of them.

The Cincinnati Commercial thus re-
Dukes its radical cenfreres who, upon q
forged report and false construction of
General Blair's speech, are loudly charg-
ing him with having threatened the assas.
sination of General Grant, in case of his
election.
at does not appear, from the full re-
pert of General Blair's speech in St. Lou.
is, that he threatened or suggested the as
sassination of Grant. He said that il
elected, Grant " il! never leave the presi-
dontial mansion as long as he lives. Of
course, if he never leaves it as long a. he
lives, he will never leave it alive. But
Blair meant to convey the idea that Grant
will become dictator, imperator, or some
thing of that sort, and relieve the people
of their quadrennial uproar. 1t vas a
very Ingenious construction, however, Of
the words used BY Blair, and if persisted
in might put him to more trouble than he
he has had in explaining the Broadhead
letter away"
It was very "ingenious construction, y
indeed. of General Blair's speech, but
though "persist ed in" has not been
productive of trouble to General Blair, or
benefit to radicalism. The people know it
is a silly lie, and despise the miserable IL
ars who invented and repeat it.-hdiano

A Card.

n
To the Electors Of the Fourth Congress
ional District o f Indiana
To my political and and personal friends
in the fourth congressional district, l de-
sire to express my warmest and heartfelt
thanks, for their kind and generous sup
port in electing me as their representative
to the forty-6rst congress Of the United
States.
True, my opponent, the Hon. George
W. Julian. the present member, disregard
ing all honor and expressed wishes of the
electors Of the district, has eudeavored, by
fraud aud ehicancry, to thwart the inten-
ton of the people. and has obtained for
the time being the disfranch ,ement OF
eleven hundred of the citizens of Wayne
county, by rejecting, through the boa I'd of
canvassers in that county, the precinct of
Richmond, in which l obtained MAORI
y over him of 202 votes. But such con
duct is condemned by all good men, wheth-
er republican or democrat, and returns
with tenfold power to crush forever the
preparation of so great wrong to the
rights of the people.
The south precinct was established by
the same board which created the north
and the election was conducted under re-
publican officers, under a copy Of the same
registry as the north. Whatever was
done by the south precinct is equally ap-
plicable to the north. and both must stand
or fall together. At the north precinct
Julian received majority of 6S5 votes
over me. aud l received at the south 202
votes over him; but the south poll was re-
jected without any proper cause by q boar d
without any legal authority, and under the
advice of the honorable gentleman The
republican state ticket was defrauded out
of 1873 votes, and 1 of 202 votes, in order
to secure him the certificate of election.
Against this great wrong have tiled a
protest with the secretary of state at In
dianapolis, supported by the aHidavits OF
Col. William A. Bickle, of Richmond, one
of the DISTINGUISHED voters, and shall do
all IN my power to correct it. and vindicate
the rights of the people to fair and free
election.
That Mr.. Julian was beaten by 81 votes
is acknowledged by his brothers paper,
the radical Republican, and it was only
after mature reflection by HIM and his as
sociaies, it was decided that the Vote OF
the south precint of Richmond should be
thrown out, in order to save his election
regardless of the danger to governor Ba-
ker and the republican state ticket, Or the
rights Of myself.
For the present have taken legal steps
to stay the issuing of the congressional
certificate to him, and to obtain the GER
ti6cate to myself as the legally elected
member, and shall do no act which will
injure the rights Of tho citizens OF Wayne
township; but will demand full add fair
investigation of everything connected with
the action Of the board and this infamous
conduct in rejecting the whole vote of the
precinct.
Again thank you for your kind and
generous support, irrespective of party,
and subscribe myself your legally elected
representative. JOHN S. REID.

ADDRESS OF THE DEMOCRATIC STATE
COMMITTEE.

COMMITTEE.
New HAVEN, Conn.,, Oct. 21.-.To the
Connecticut Democracy But few days
are lef, before the great battle for eonsti-
iutional government shall be decided.
Now is the time for vigorous, united
action. The democracy everywhere in the
primary elections have made immense
gains. Radical fraud and bribery have
done their worst, but the democratic forces
are firm and uofinching ard confident.
Our gallant standard. bearers, Seymour
and Blair, ar, backed by patriotic masses
that know no such word as fail.
Cowards may 80 to the rear. The old
guard steps forward firmly to the front
Onward, fellow-democrats, onward, is
the cry. Let every democratic heart res
pond to it, and the Sd Of November will be
day Of glory to our cause, worthy of all
who honor the names and the principles OF
Washington, Jefferson and Jackson.

The War OF Races.

New ORLEANS, Oct 27.-The officer
on Rousseau's staff, sent to St. Bernard
parish yesterday, reports that the bodies
of the Spanish baker and his son, murder
ed on Sunday night by negroes, were
burned 10 the house. The women and
children we're saved The officer could
not learn that any woman or child had
been killed. The two compacies of iDfan
try sent there are still in the parish, but
away from the vicinity. The report that
the troops had beeu attacked is denied.
At a late hour last night, white man
was killed in the First district of this city,
and another in the Second. The latter
belonged to club of Spaniards, Portu-
guess, Italians, and French, who were
much e1asporated, and between whom and
the negroes several fights occurred to-day,
which re suited in the death and wound
ing Of several persons Of both cclors.
The metropolital police force are almost
dsmoralized. and troops have been station
ed throughout the city to prevent any Sc
rious conflict.
Gov. Yarmouth has issued proclama-
ton requesting an abstinence, by both
parties frsm further public professions or
demonstrations until after the elections.
The negro policemen have failed, for
two days to report for duty. Every one
of them has been discharged, and about
one hundred whites appointed in their
places. Many of them were old members
of the force. Some discharged United
States soldiers, and about 200 citizens,
will be sworn in as special officers, and be
placed on duty in the streets until the
force is completed.
Mayor Conway proposes, in case authori-
ty be given the council, to appoint Gen.
Steadman temporary chief of police.
New ORLEANs, Oct. 27.-The follow
ing is Gov. Warmouth's communicat to
Gen Rousseau, forwarded by him to the
secretary Of war, with the Endorsement
that he believed il to be correct:
GENERAL-Ths evidence is conclusive
that the civil authorities in the parishes
of Orleans, Jefferson and St. Bernard are
unable to preserve order and protect the
lives and property OF the people. The act
OF congress prohibiting the organization Of
militia in this state strips me of all power
to sustain them in the discharge of their
duties, and am compelled 10 appeal to
you to take charge of the peace of these
parishes and use your forces to that end
If you respond iavorably to my request, ]
will at once order the sheriff and polio.
forces to report to you for orders.
Very respectfully, your OBJ DIT ssrv't,
"HENRY YARMOUTH, Governor.

NEXT TUESDAY.

The question is before the people wheth-
OF they will perpe!uate and sustain . free
government, founded On principles Of
equality and justice, or whether they will
indorse the radical programme of inequali-
:, before the law, oppression and sectional
legislation.
Next Tuesday it is the duty of every
voter to seriously consider the iIporta nee
of the duty before him, and then 10 con-
scisntiou.l y discharge that duty. It is not
the soecess or defeat of party or man that
is at stake ); it is the vital interest of the
country for years to come. Great inter-
ests and great questions must be decided
for veal or woe. In the issue stands the
question Of the payment Of the bonds in
gold or greenbacks; and the expansion or
contraction Of the currency; the continual
ton or disbandmeut Of the large standing
army DOW occupying the south; the settle
ment of tie question if congress may legis
late outside the constitution and enforce
unconstitutional laws despite tho supreme
court whether the people Of the south
ehall be won to our "uuion Of hearts" by
just treatment and equal laws, or whether
they must be guarded by bayone!s as is Po-
land and Ireland Whether freedom or
tyranny shall govern in this republican
land Of ours.
We cannot and do not propose to argue
any of the questions before the people, at
this late hour; that has already been done,
and it only remains now for honest and
intelligent men to determine how their in
husnce and vote shall be cast.
We appeal tc our friends and neighbors
to lay aside PASSION and prejudice, and to
exercise the great right of freemsn in such
manner that they may perpetuate and
preserve the right for generations vet to
come, and may bestow it alike upon all
sections of this free land Of ours, knowing
Ne north and no south.

Of peglecting his duty to himselfas to his

J - more than certain.

The democracy of Indiana have
splendid pluck. One of them writes in n
private letter thus: Although Jaeo-
bins have probably carried this state by a
small majority, We think we can carry it
for the democracy in November. At
least, We shall try, and if we Gle, We shall
die grit" With that spirit animating the
whole body Of the Indiana democracy there
need be no doubt felt about the result in
November. Indeed, with that sriri,

The Earthquake.

SAN FRAscIsoo, Cal, Oct. 22.
The earthquake is still the topic of CONVEX.
sation. A Sigh, tremor or two was felt o-day-
The total casualties, worth mentioning, do
not exceed thirty. There were only FIVE
deaths; though death may yet result in one
or two other cases of injury.
4 committee of the board OF supervisors
and architects. to-day. held q survey on the
city hall. engine-houses. and other public
buildings. The eXamins ion Of he city hall
shows il to be badly cracked from the fret
floor upward. The arches are mostly ruined.
The postof1ce clerks have resumed their
duties in the custom house building. Had it
not been for the anchors and ties put into the
building after the earthquake in 1865. it 10
probable the greater portion Of il would haze
fallen to the ground.
The Merchants exchange, on Battery
street, opposite the custom house, owned
by United States courts. was considerably
injured. There is lLrge assure in the
north wall. The building is on bad ground,
and was severely shattered three years ago.

Let me tell them they cannot have peace
until they do right. [Great cheering. ]
Justice is the groundwork upon which
peace must be established. 1t can exist no
where else. The radical party says. up
with the loyal black man, and down with
the disloyal white man Of the south, and
that will be peace. But nothing could be
