The Springfield (Mass.) Republican says:
The Lovejoy who has been disgracing
his "cloth" and his name by brawling at
Campridge, Massachusetts, is the brother
of the "martyr Lovejoy" who at Alton
sealed his faith with his blood, and of Owen
Lovejoy, the friend of Lincoln, and one of
the truest of the early anti-slavery men of
the country. Lest the family should be
pulled up over much and exalted beyond
measure, this Cambridge Lovejoy was
given them as thorn in the flesh. 1t is a
mysterious dispensation, by which the name
OF two of the bravest men in America can
boast should be borne about in shame by
this creature, years after they have laid
down their honored lives, full of service
and full of glory, in the cause of God and
man.
The rebels of Tennessee have commenc-
ed g setting up" with the negro. In the
Eighth (Memphis) District Congressional
convention, held at Brownsville on the
tenth instant, the following resolution was
adopted:
RESOLVED, That if the freedmen Of this
State unite With the Democracy, and by
their votes secure the enfranchisement of
the white men who are now distranchised,
common justice and common gratitude de-
mand that we should not disturb them ia
any rights they may now possess.
One delegate wanted to emphasize the if
in the first line, and another wanted to
strike out the word gratitude in the fifth line,
but the convention insisted upon having
the resolution III its original shape.
The Philadelphia Press says: Ten years
since there came to Nebraska party of
one hundred Irishmen, all of them without
dollar in the world. They were worth
cniy their spades and Democratic vote
piece. They took up land in Douglas
aounty, around the then unknown town of
Omaha, and now all of them are enjoying
atiuence, and many Of them wealth. With
clean shirts and comfortable homes, and
their cattle covering hundred bluffs,
political as well as social change has come
over these American citizens Of Celtic de-
scent, and every one of them votes for
Grant and Colfax. So it goes all our
country over. Lit man out of the gutter
and you raise him from Democracy.
A subscriber to this paper, living at She

You can mention several accessions to
our party in this county, on my authority,
if you think it worth while Among them
are Alfred Merschner, postmaster at She
boygan, who was for several years editor
OF the National Denokrdt, German Demo-
cratic paper, published at Sheboygan ;

The people can not plead ignorance of |
the consequences, if they elect General |
Grant President in November. for the |
Richmond Enquirer has solemnlv fore
warned them in the words following. to |

q Democratic President, they know that
they wantonly leave their place among the
nations and plunge beneath the level of
the most iniquitous of the medieval now
ers, from which position they can never
rise, but must continue to sink until every |
vestige of their former glory is obseured in |
misery, despotism, and infamy-an object |
for the derision and contempt of the whole
world"
Vallandigham has made a good many
peeches. He made speech in Congress, on
he 9th OF July, 1861, just before the battle
VI Bull Kun, in which he uttered the fol-
owing atroclous sentiment, which dug his
POLITICAL grave:
Then, sir, l am not Southern man
in this most unholy and
unconstitutional crusade against the South.

THE DIFFERENcE.-Down South. when a
olored man manifests his opposition at a
ublic meeting, the reconstructed rebels
ther break his head, or shoot him dead
a the spot. Up North, at Saratoga, when
party of Southern bloods showed their o
bod breeding by bissing and yelling at &
eneral Sickles, and cheering for Wilkes 9
Doth, nobody molosted them. This is the ?
