The Radicals call the Democrats
trebel sympathiHFs,n Democrats
are "rebel aymIathizers." and ever
have been since the world began.
We, democrats, sympathized with
rebellion in l776, when noble patri.
OTIS rebelled against the British yoke
OF tyranny: we sympathized with
the hraye men who fought British
hordes upon the plains of Lexington
and Concord; sympathized with
the brave rebels who offered up their
lives upon the bloody fields of Bran
dywine and Monmouths we sympa
thizsd with those gallant rebels who
met King Geargeis troops In hand
to hahd encounter on the heights Of
Bunker Hill; and with those brave
Southern rebels who LEFT their bonaa
to bleach at Eutaw Springs and
around lhe works Of efoultrie; We
synpatinzed with those gallant reb-
els who followed Marion through
the sVanlns of the CaroIinas, and
with thoss brape and gallant rebe's,
from the Green Mountain State,
who, with brave old Ethan Allen at
their head, marched upon Ticonder-
oga, striking terror to British hearts,
and we now Fympathize with those
same galiantirebeIs, dead and gone,
and cannot but weep with them that
the government for which they so
salEantiy fought should, by radical
mismanagemeIlt and misrule, be
brought to what ii Is.

into the army as a lst Lieutenant,
and resigned in less than six months.
He is loyal and ought to be elected.
W.. Shoemaker, the democratic

as private soldier, and served three

The New Conspiracy.

The devilish ingenuity of the Radical
leaders passes human understanding.
The latest development of their diabolism
is contained in the dispatch published
yesterday from Washington, announcing
that in the event of the conviction of the
President immediate steps would be
taken for the arrest and trial of Robert
E. Lee for treason. The object of this
movement, it is stated, is to involve Gen.
Grant in difficulties on the subject of
Gen. Lees parole extended 10 him by
Gen. Grant in surrender, which will ope-
rate against him in the Chicago Conven.
ton, and perhaps prevent his nomina-
ton. II is known that Gen. Grant con-
siders himself in honor bound by the
terms of that surrender, and that as an
officer and gentleman he feels that he
must stand as the protection of those
with whom be made terms to procure the
surrender. This, of course, is the view
which every honorable man must take of
the subject If was provided in the terms
of capitulation, that the Confederates
who surrendered should retire to their
respective homes, and so long as they
acted the part of peaceable and quiet
citizens, they should be free from inter-
ruption and arrest Gen. Lee has done
this. There has not been whisper
against his conduct since the close of the
war, and to arrest him now would be
gross violation Of the terms upon which
be surrendered, which Gen. Grant, if he
has any regard for his reputation as
soldier, viii be bound to resent. This is
what the conspirators hope and what
they design, They wish to force him
into some expressions of favor toward
Gen. Lee which they can use with the
extreme Radicals to bis prejudice. That
Gen. Grsntwill resent the proceedings
referred to if any such are inaugurated
We do not doubt II he does not, he will
be forever disgraced. But whether any
capital will be manufactured against him
out of that fact remains of be seen. We
have too much confidence in the good
sense Of the Americon people to believe
it.-Louisrille Courier.

thrown his sword into the scale against
an impartial verdict, in revenge for

the prosecution has been admitted, and
that most material for the defense shut
out, when fear and favor, bribery,
perjury, abuse and threats have been
