THE SUFFRAGE QUEsTIoN.-To show how
the Radicals cling to their own National Plat
form, over the left, body only needs to refer
back to that plank in their last Chicago Plat,
form, which declares that in the "loyal States
the people have the right to regulate the ques-
ton of suffrage to suit themselves, and then to
read what has already been proposed by Will.
son, Williams, and other Radical Senators, in
the present session Of Congress. They have
introduced measures to force negro suffrage on
all the States, North and South, whether the
people of the States, or ofany of them, like it or
hot. They say Grant mast stand upon the Plat.
form, yet break it with impunity themselves.
Intensely Radical, that.

OREGON BUTTER.-We clip the following
from the Portland Oregonian. 1t is too good
to pass:
The following from an exchange might have
been written, for aught we know, to hit off
some of the butter bought and sold in Portland.
At oil events, it is a palpable hit The writer
says: 1.-The woman who made the butter
which we bought last week at Mr.. IS store
is respectfully requested to exercise more judg-
ment with the next lot, in proportioning the
ingredients. The last batch had too much
hair in it for butter, and not quite enough for
a waterfall. This is sheer waste of the raw
material. Use more grease and less hair, or
more hair and less grease. There's no use in
making yourself bald-headed if butter is Is
cents pound"

DAWN OF THE RADICAL MiIIENIUM.-The
Lancaster Pa.) TntcllQcnccr saws:

The Radicals have at length succeeded in accom-
pllshng one of their most cherished projects. BY
throwing out the votes of twelve Democratic parishes
in Louisiana they have managed to secure the return
of negro to Congress. The name of the happy
darkey is Menard. BY the patent Radical method of
rejecting what votes they please and counting only
what suits them, this African representative is sent
to Washington to fill the une&pired term of dead
carpetDagger named Mama We congratulate the
Republican party on this magnificent triumph of
their policy Let them rejoice now that they have
succeeded in accomplishing their most dearly cher
ished purpose.

4 BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENr-We clip the
following beautiful sentiment from an exchange:
Sorrow sobcrs lis and makes the mind genial
And in sorrow we love and trust our friends
more tcndcry and the dead become dcarcr to
us And just as the stars shine out in the
nights, so there are blessed faces that look at
us in our grief, though before their features
were fading from our recollection. Suffering
Let no man dread it too much, because it is
better for him, and it will help to make him
sure of being immortal. 1t is not in the bright
happy days, but only in the solemn night, that
our words are to be seen shining in the long
long distance. And it is in sorrow-thc night
OF the soul-that we see the larthcst. and know
ourselves natives of ininity and daughters OF
the Most High.
