wELsamEs FOR GRANT.
Address to the Welsh nsn Of the Uutted
0taeoo

8taass
The following address has been issued to
the Welsh citizens Of Oneida county, New
York Governor Seymours residence:
To the Welsh Residents in Oneida County
FELLOW CITlzEHs:-At the request of the
committee of the Welsh Grant and Collar
Club, formed in the city of Utica, We desire
hnmbly and earnestly to call your attention
to the Importance that every one of you
should vote in IN honest, enlightened and
conscientious manner in the coming election.
We do not wish to Say anything concerning
the personal character of either OF the candi~
dates for the high power Of President and
Vice President Of the United States; but We
are fully convinced that the principles pro-
fessed by Grant and Colfax are most in &C
cordance with the politics Of the United
States for the last eight years, and agree bet
ter with the principles Of liberty, truth and
justice, and are more likely to lead the whole
country to peace, comfort, prosperity and
honor II appears TO us that the principles
and Speeches Of the Democratic party natu.
rally lead to the re-establishment Of slavery
IN the South, thus rendering useless the great
sacrifice OF property and lives made by the
friends Of liberty in the last war; if not lead
ing US into another war, more destructive and
terrible, in the future.
On their side also are those Who rebelled
against the Government and cauAed the great
war which proved the death Of hundreds Of
Welshmen and thousands from other nations.
The trade prospect il also worthy of stte n
ton. We are promised if the Democrats
are riaced in power, that the taxes will b
less, and that the public money will Be man.
aged more economically. But their former
history when in power gives us but very little
room to expect economy from them. and
their financial schemes do not seem likely to
lesd to any improvement in the circumstan>
ces Of the country. They propose to pay the
National debt in greenbacks instead Of gold
This will cause every one who ia possessed OF
gold to keep it or send it to other countries,
where there is better security. Thus trade
will be stopped, the greenbacks will be de-
preciated in value, the country will sink into
poverty and disgrace, and its progress and
development viii be hindered for many years
to come. This is our opinion, conscientious
" formed, and while We allow to others the
same liberty to judge ~ We claim to our
selves, We urge you, one and al, 10 vote for
Grant and Colfax; and our earnest des;re il
that every Welshman throug hoat the United
States should do the came

 Official Abyssinian dates state that the Europeans lately held captive there, numbering, sixty souls, including men, women and children, were already en route home, and that the entire force of Theodore's army had been, either kill- ed, wounded or captured.
 General Napier takes by this victory twenty eight large guns, just used against him, five thousand stand of arms, 10000 shields (such as are used in battle in open field by the Abyssin- ians,) 10000 spears, and many other articles of war equipments. Some accounts say that Theodorus com mitted suicide when he found the for tunes of the day against him. Theo- dorus' two sons were taken prisoners. rsi~ :-.sa.; >r tho fentrase af NaGaale presents a splendid sight-the place glowing with barbaric splendor. The British troops plundered it at once. They found four royal crowns, made of solid gold, $20,000 in silver, 1000 silver plates, several lots of rich jewels and other articles of great value.

psy- The Little Rock Gazette of the 2lst says: Col. Tourtellotte, of Gen. Gillem's staff left here on Saturday morning for Vicksburg. He came to this city for the purpose of securing in- formation in reference to the alleged frauds committed at the late elections. The charges made, were mainly, that ballot-boxes had been stuffed; votes against the constitution destroyed and changed lawful voters prohibited from the exercise of the privilege of the franchise, because they were known to be opposed to Radical policy; ballots cast by the same persons two, three or more times at different precincts vot- ing done by women in male attire, and also by persons disqualified by age and residence. These charges were fully substantiated by large mass of evi- dence gathered from Pulaski, Jefferson, counties, which the Colonel took with
 him for the consideration of the Gen.
 eral commanding. If the oaths of creaditable witnesses and other reliable evidence are worth anything, . good case is made and the result cannot be involved in much doubt, We would inform our friends, however, that the
 military authorities still hold the case open for further evidence, which they are urged to send at once, properly at tested, to Col. Francis A. Terry, in this
 eisn. The hYjef time. allowed for. col lecting proof has confined our evidence thus far te few counties, We desire
 to hear from all parts ofStatc, and have l the assurance that reasonable time will be allowed. We ask our friends to act promptly.

Judging from the indications of every mail, and nearly every telegram that comes over the wires, the radicals are in state of great discontinue, and are generally, either reaching out to grasp some new support, or talking about "what they advised a long time ago." and how successfully the scheme would have resulted had some favorite policy been pursued. Beaten men are ever %wise in their former judgments, and there is always an omnipotent ''if'' to cover the follies of the past and ex- cuse the disasters of the present.
 Some eighteen months ago, the New York Tribune was exceedingly anxious to trade universal amnesty for univer- it's status with its extreme radical ing on MT. Davis bond. Since that time it has been spending it's energies on the one idea of congressional recon struction. but suddenly it halts, casts about and says with admirable spirit and candor:
 We hold universal amnesty and inn partial suffrage to be the proper basis of the true and benificent reconstruc- ton imperatively demanded.
 What is it that induces the Tribune at this late day to commence talking about "propcr basis,' and ''true and beniticent reconstruction" of another sort than that in progress The New York Times, too, is in a glorious state of uncertainty, and ventures a faint re- proach on the extreme measures of it's party, while the Cincinnati Commer- cial regards, universal prosperity as paramount to universal suffrage,n and the Springfield Republican, an influen- tial radical journal, speaks out candidly and says, 'sour leaders have gone be- yond us. We shall cease te follow thcm,' etc. This uncertainty among radical journals all over the land is marked, and dissensions arc springing up of a most damaging character. None remain steadfast to the true faith save few petty sheets that were thun- dering away on abolitionism, and higher law, forty years ago. The truth is the radical train having lost the well beaten track of justice and truth, has come to dead halt, and it's guides are groping about in the fearful darkness that surrounds them for way out. The situation must be decidedly uncom- fortable.-[ Little Rock Gazette.
