Therefore, my friends aud fellow

= let US have peace, this sentence is
full of pregnant meaning; it means
that the acceptance and protection of
a restored Union, founded on that
broad basis of equal rights to all and
exclusive privileges to none, is the
only means and hope of peace.

You know the event. We we're de-
serted. The Democrats of the North
would not go forward, and taught by
the war to something better than the
resolutions of '98 and slavery, they
gave up the Union and the future
they embraced the past. and returned
like a dog to his vomit. They entered
the contest on the side OF those who
had been most conspicuous in the
ranks of the enemies to the Union.
and threw overheard, withous remorse
of conscience, those Union men who
had stood by them in the hour of
their difficulties. ees
The act signalized at once the in
evitable sympathies of the Democratic
party, North as well as South. The con-
trolling power in that party through
the war was opposed to it. While
many of them, ] gratefully remem-
Der, proved their devotion to the
country in the legislative forum and
by going into the field; but the real,

gave its sympathy to the war against
the Union, denied the right of the

Gen. Grants Accordance.

The following is Gen. GRANTS letter
of acceptance of the Chicago nominal
ton. 1t is brief, to the point, and a
frank endorsement of the principles of
the National Union party, and will be
read with much satisfaction by the great
mass of those who sustained the country
against the rebellion:
WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 20, 1868.
To Gen. Joseph r. Hawley, President of
the National Union Republican Con-
vention -
In formally accepting the nomination
of the national union republican conven-
ton of the 21st of May, it seems proper
that some statement of views, beyond
the mere acceptance Of the nomination,
should beexpressed The proceedings of
the convention were marked with wis
dom, moderation and patriotism, and l
believe express the feelings of the great
mass of those who sustained the country
through its recent trials. Endorse their
resolutions. If elected to the Office of
president of the United States, It will be
my endeavor to administer all the laws
in good faith, and with the view of CIV
ing peace, quiet and protection every
where. In times like the present, it is
impossible, or at least eminently i'm
proper, TO lay down policy to be adj
hered to, right or wrong, through an adj
ministration of four years. New politi-
cal issues, not foreseen, are constantly
arising; the views of the public on old
ones are constantly changing, and
purely administrative officer should al
ways be left free TO execute the VIII of
the people. | always have respected
that will and always shall. Peace, and
commercial prosperity, its sequence, with
economy of administration, will tighten
she burden of taxation, while it constant
y reduces the national debt. Let us
have peace. With great respect, your
obedlent servant, U. S. GRANT.

A BRIDE CHANGES HER MIND.-The
Columbus (Ohio) Statesman says: A girl
living in the family of one of our city
officials was wooed and won by Young
man, every way worthy of her, and last
Friday was fixed as the time for tyino
the knot with the tongue that can't be
united with the teeth. Everything was
prepared, the wedding harness purchased,
the wedding supper spread, the guests
invited, and the groom arrayed gor-
geousiy, awaited the appearance of the
bride, who had retired to take last look
IN the mirror. An hour passed, and vet
she did not come. Another, and groom
and priest and guests began to get un-
easy The lady of the house went after
her, and found that she had disrobed
herself of her bridal attire, and was
again arrayed in the habiliments of or.
binary life. Being asked the reason she
SAID she had changed her mind; she
didn't want to marry She liked the
would-be husband well enough, but she
had concluded to die an old maid. The
groom was sent for. He begged, implor-
ed, entreated, but all in vain. She had
made up her mind not to marry and
marry she wouldn't.

At the expiration Of this time he paid a
short visit to his family, and on his re-
turn met, for the first time, General, then
Lieut.. John c. Fremont, by whom his
experience in the backwoods was atonce
appreciated, and by whom, also, he was
engaged as guide in his subsequent ex-
plorations. In this position he was emil
nently useful, and to him is probably
due much of the success of those explo-
rations. In 1917, Carson was sent to
Washington as bearer of dispatches, and
was then appointed lieutenant in the
rifle corps of the United States army.
In 1858 he drove $500 sheep over the
mountains to California, very hazard

return to Lane, was appointed Indian
agent in New Mexico. Since the APP
pointment he has been largely instru-
mental in bringing about the treaties be-
tween the United States and the Indians
and on motion of this kind he visited
Washington fewweeks ago in company
with deputation of the red men, and
made tour of several of the northern
and eastern cities. He served in the
Union army in New Mexico during the
rebellion and was promoted to the rank
of brigadier-general.

Senator MORRILL, of this State, always
true to constituents, closed his opinion on
the impeachment of the President as fol-
lows:
] am glad TO remember that at the
commencement of the late rebellion An
drew johnson took bola, outspoken
stand in behalf of the Union, and that
fact shall protect him, so far as my vote
is concerned, From any other penalty for
his recent great offences, than simple
removal from office j would not de-
prive him of the poor privilege of being
candidate for the suffrages Of any por-
ton of the people who may think him
worthy, whether for President or alder
man. But his appointment to Office of
men supposed 'cerruptly to be putting
more money into their own pockets than
into the treasury; his disoreditable use
OF the pardoning power; his unmasked
threat in his last annual message that il
might become proper for him to "adopt
forcible measures or such as might lead
to force in opposing an unconstitutional
act of Congress; disappointment, in vi
vfation or law, ~ places or honor and
trust, rebels not able to take the oath or
office, in preference to loyal men; his
maiign attempts to foist upon the coup.
try his policy of restoring the rebellious
states without security for the future and
against the measures of salutarv reform
proposed by Congress; and his bitter and
active efforts to defeat the adoption of
the constitutional amendment proposed
by the 39th Congress, known as article
IA, and known. also, as the great seal Of
security for the broad principles of ma.
tional freedom and human rights; these
iacts, and such as these, do not allow me
to gratuitously credit the President with
good intent in the past, nor can I not.

face of such record, by a verdict Of

its utmost to help Woolley cover up the

of which he seeks to conceal the evidence.
The House is the arena of struggle
whereof the object on one side is to un-

which Woolley conceals would damage
