LocAL.-Our usual local notices are
thrown overheard this week. The Gre
turns" are not sufficiently agreeable to in
spire US with the best humor, politically,
and of course the social is out of order
slightually. Our congressional gains have
been respectable but rot SO cursedly nu.
merous as to justify much Dragging. The
two-thrds element in the lower House, ut
D. c., is beaten. We met the enemy and
they got us. We congratulate them On
the responsibility they have secured.
Blessed are they who expect nothing for
they shall not be disappointed! We are
not expecting anything at present except
the early condemnation Of Grant by those
who voted for him. We have too much
pride in American institutions to suggest
a row, or hope for one in the camp Of the
radicals, but recollection Of Tyler, of
Fillmore, of johnson, reminds us of the
danger this anti.dcmocratic party are in
when "availing" itself Of the popularity
of lifelong democrat. The wise ones
among them already see breakers ahead.
They wont have long to look. Dye mind
that now.

THE Troupe.

THE Troupe.
Parkhurst, Harry Thompson and George
Thompson, lot of country 'boys," are
now in vacation over in Grant County,
Wisconsin. They began as Coaccrtists
three years ago without pretension and
they are without pretension yet, but they
have to-day the best reputation as singers
that can be made up in the North West.
City chaps may travel where they list and
complain of "poor houses but you hear
no such reports from these Western read
ers of music and accomplished humorists.
IIumor and Song require nice shading to
be agreeable to public taste. Not too
fastidous, after the fashion of Lord Dun
dreary-not too rude after the fashion Of
the second class gangs which infest city
and country. Our "boys' are Just right.
On Tuesday, Nov. 10th (next week., they
invite McGREGoR, en- mas:e, to hear them
at the Cambrian. There is sort of life,
Il geniality, a commonsense-itiycness in
their selection of songs the rendering of
them and in their personal behaviour that
forces this pen to commend and the public
to approve them.
Doc. IRIsn-well known in this region
as the embodiment of Suavity, is their
Agent. He is not exactly ''brick'' be-
cause he never dcmoralizes in the least,

This must be allowed to take
its course. This is the only road

election of the Democratic candi
date, and not with the election of
that mailed warrior whose bayo-
nets are now at the throats of
eight millions of people in the
South, to compel them to support
him as q candidate for the Presi

termination of an alien race of

Frank Blair's Platform.

The following letter was adj
dressed by Gen. F. P. Blair to
Col. j. 0. Broedhead, of the Mis-
souri, delegation to New York, in
reply to inquiry as to his disposi-
ton to become Il candidate. 1t
talks as old Frank used to talk in
the brave old days of Jackson:
Washington, June 30, 1868. /
To Col. James o. Broadhead:
Dear CoIonel-In reply to your
inquiries, | beg leave to say that
| leave you to determine on con
sultation with my friends from
Missouri, whether my name shall
be presented to the Democratic
Convention, and to submit the
following as what / consider the
real and only issue in this CON
test:
The Reconstruction policy of
the Radicals will be complete be-
! fore the next election; the States
so long excluded will have been
admitted, negro suffrage establish
ed and the carpet-baggers install
ed in their seats in both branches
of Congress. There is no posi-
bility Of changing the political
character of the Senate, even if
the Democrats should elect their
President and a majority of the
popular branch of Congress. We
cannot, therefore, undo the Radi-
cal plan of Reconstruction by
congressional action; the Senate
will continue a bar to it's repeal.
Must we submit to it ? How can
lit be overthrown? 1t can only
be oyerthrown by the authority
of the Executive, who is sworn to
maintain the constitution, and
who will fail to do his duty if he
allows the constitution to perish
under a series of congressional
enactments which are in palable
violation of it's fundamental prin-
ciples. iI
| If the President elected by the
Democracy enforces, or permits
others to enforce, the reconstruc
ton acts, the Radicals, by the
accession Of twenty spurious Sen
ators and fifty Representatives
will, control both branches oi
Congress, and his administration
will be as powerless as the pres
ent one of Mr.. johnson. a
There is but one way to restore
the Government and the Consti
tuition, and that is for the Presi

Representatives. will contain a
majority of Democrats from the
North, and they win admit the
Representatives elected by the
white people of the South, and
with the cooperation of the Pres
ident it will not be difficult to
compel the Senate to submit Oaice
more to the obligations of the
Constitution. 1t win nOtb able
to withstand the public Judgment,
if distinctly invoked and clearly
expressed, on this fundamental
issue, and it is the sure way to
avoid all future strife to put this
issue plainly to the country. y
I repeat that this is the real
and only question which we should
allow to control us: Shall we sub
NIT to the usurpations by which
the Government has been oyer
thrown, or shall we exert our
selves for its full and complete
restoration /? It is idle to talk of
bonds, greenbacks, gold, the pub
lie faith the, public credit, What
can a Democratic President do
in regard to any of these with
a Congress in both branches con
trolled by the carpet baggefs and
their allies 2 He will be power
less to stop the supplies by which
idle negroes are organized into
political clnbs--by which an army
is maintained to protect these
vagabonds in their otrages upon
the ballot; These, and things
like these, eat UP the revenues
and resources Of the Government,
and destroy its credit, make the
difference between gold and green
backs. We must restore the
finances, and to do this, we must
have a President who will execute
the will Of the people by tramp;
ling into dust the usurpations Of
Congress, knowA as the Recon.
struction acts. L wish to stand
before the Convention upon this
issue, but it is one which embraces
everything else that is Of value In
its large and comprehensive re-.
suits. 1t is the one thing that
includes all that is worth con.
test, and withoutit there is nothing
that gives dignity, honor or vsluo
to the struggle. '''
