The Side Show,

As a tender to the Copperhead Conven-
ton in New York, there assembled what
was called Democratic Soldiers Conven-
ton" 1t is very much cheaper and less
dangerous to hold soldiers conventions now
than it was during the war. Then soldiers
conventions were held all along the front,
from. Viol,sburs to RioiImoud, but no call
was issued for them by the Democracy. In
these conventions, Coppcrheads were not
anxious to be delegates. When summoned
so peremptorily that it was impossible to
evade it, they followed the exam pie of their
illustrious chairman, and procured mig
ger" to represent them. Their conventions
then were held in Canada or if perchance
on this side of the boundary, in forests and
mountains-in ambuscades and iastnesses,
where they skulked from the draft, and
caused thv U~;"u- army to be depleted by
the regiments necessary to ferret them uu,
and bring them to a sense of duty. Demo
cratic Soldiers conventions forsooth! What
a farce

The Registry Law.

The Supreme Court last week, by bare
majority, decided the Registry Law enacted
by the last Legislature, to be unconstitu-
tional SO far as ii applies to the city of Phil
adelphia. Judge Strong concurred in the
decision of Thompson and Sharswood, be-
cause the phraseology of the Act was bad
Judges Read and Agnew dissented, and de
livered opinions fully sustaining the law.
Sharswood seems to be the only Judge on
the bench who is entirely opposed to a Re
gistry Law Our friends in Philadelphia,
who voted for him because it ''was not a
political Office have doubtless got their
eyes opened. Well he may be opposed to q

In force last fall, he would not now occupy
n seat on the Supreme Bench-John Casey
would not be IN his grave-Traey would not
have disgraced the priesthood by the pay
ment of hush money-hundreds of deluded
foreigners would not have perjured them
selves-Woodward would not be in Con
gress disgracing the State and shaming tn,
country-and the loyal people of the land
would have been spared the modification o

The Democracy have an negro on the
stump in Virginia, who declares himself to
be Virginian, real Virginian, and will
not take the oath His name is Lafayette
Washington, and he is considered quite a
windtall to the party. We are pleased to
observe, as we do through the medium of a
real Virginia paper, that Lafe's speeches
are making "a profound sensation" nor are
we surprised at the remark of correspon-
dent of the Washington Republican, that in
Virginia "a Democratic niger does not
even smell bad" He becomes man and
brother the moment he gets on the Demo
cratic side. So we go.

The opposition press frequently assert
that Grant was unsparing of the lives OF his
men, and assail him as butcher who reck-
lessly sacrificed his troops. Now the facts
of history cffectually put this slander down.
Before Grant took command, the Army of
the Potomac lost in killed, wounded and
missing Ills men. The subsequent los
ses were LOG, SOL. Gen. Grants operations
embrace the great lighting which caused the
rebellion to succumb. For his losses he had
something to show, which cannot be said of
other commanders.

Our Paper.

We this week present our readers with the
Journal enlarged about nine columns, and
in new dress We have blown no trum-
ments because we thought they were due to
our patrons and the great party whose prin-
ciples we advocate, that we might be
tho better able to do our whole duty in the
important canvass that is upon us. The
journal is now the largest paper printed ii
the county, and we trust our friends vii
approve our effort to make it worthy ot
their continued support.

Behold the Man !


Before the assembling of the New York
Convention the Herald contained the fol-
lowing advice:
But if the Democratic Convention must
nominate a soldier-it il must have name
Unidentified with the glories OF the war-we
will recommend candidate for its iavors.
Let it nominate General Robert Il. Lee.
Let it boldly take at once the best OF all Its
soldiers, making no palaver or apology. He
is better soldier than any of those they
have thought upon and the greater man.
There never was such an army or such cam
paign, or such general for Illustrating the
military genius and possibilities OF our peo-
pie and thts General IS the best Of all TOR
q Democratic candidate, and affords the best
promise of any soldier for beating Grant.
And why should he not have been nomi-
mated? Who ever labored more assiduous-
" to establish the Democratic doctrine OF
the divinity of slavery and the rights of the
States? Did he not perjure himself before
high Heaven and in the face of mankind to
lead the hordes of treason and rebellion
agatbsI Tue ooNefhilen' ho va" 0i ~
support? Did he not starve the Union sol
diers in Andersonville and Libby? Is he
not to-day the very idol of the Coppcrhead:
| in the North and the Rebels in the South
OF course This General is the best of al
for a Democratic candidate" He is theil
representative man. In him the whole
Democratic party and creed is incarnated
and if they were not seeking to obtain pow
er and place under false pretences, he would
have been unanimously nominated as thei
! candidate

the commander to his green boys in
battle. The canvasser has nothing to
do with those who are already infex-
IDLY committed either to his side or to
the other. His work is to convince that
small segment of the body polite who
stand halting between two opinions
that they ought to vote with him, not
with his adversaries This done is
well done, though not single shout
has been elected, and the hurrah boys
condemn the speech as tedious.
Men and brethren think OF these
things There are at least one hundred
thousand set speeches to be made for
Grant and Colfax before November. If
they shall, in the average, each induce
one hesitating voter to go with us, our
victory must be overwhelming:-The

The butchery Of negroes at Opelou-
sas, turns out, by the admission of the
Rebels themselves, to have been even
more gross and inexcusable than ou1
first accoun4s indicated An editor, it
seems, had spoken of display of rebel
spirit at a political meeting. By way
of showing that there was no Rebel
spirit, they cowhided him. The ne
groes gathered to protect him, and he,
trusting to the laws for protection, asked
them to disperse. The Rebels then
took possession of the town, sent around
their patrols, disarmed the negroes.
and thenceforth had things all their
own way. The Rebel account says sit
is estimated that over one hundred ne
groes were killed, and about fifty
wounded" And it is added, quite nat
urally, that the peace loving and orderly
Whites, whom these riotous negroes are
keeping in constant terror of their
lives, lost "four wounded and none
killed" How long shall we permit
this persecution of the peaceful Whites

RsS~ The New-Jersey Railroad Guard
of Jersey City, commanded by Colonel
James W. Woodruff, reached this city,
this morning, on a special train. They
numbered 40 muskets, with sect on of
stalwart grenadier hats in front. The
Guards looked well, and marched with
soldier-like precision, Turl's Jersey
City Band accompanied the excursion
lists. The command visited Col. Wood
ruffs residence in Union street, where
n serenade was given, after which the
line of march was resumed, halting fin
ally at the engine house of Rolla com
pany, near the depot, where luncheon
was served Among other prizes to be
contended for is painting of the next
President of the United States, worth
$50.
We have to thank Colonel Woodruff
for polite invitation to accompany the
Guards to New Brunswick.
