Correspondence Of the Louisville Journal
WAsHIsaToN, July 1.-The President
and Secretary McCullOch get on no better.
They had another stormy interview of two
hours this afternoon. Those who have the
pest means OF knowing say that their re-
latlons are rapidly becoming as bad as
those between johnson and Stanton. Nc
Culloch Is IN position which greatly en-
harnesses him. His private engagements.
immature and unfulflled, would render
hls resignation awkward, if not dangerous,
The President is fully advised of McCul-
lochs weak points, and is disposed to press
him out of the Cabinet il possible. You
can rely on the truth of this.
A report that Senator Hendricks de-
cllnes to be candidate before the New
York Convention, and that he wrote a let
ter ten days ago giving in il his entiers all
legiance to Pendlelon, has been current
here all day. 1t is denied tonight. by
Hendricks himself His friends say he
feels kindly towards Pandleton, bat thinks
he would not be justified in suitting a
field where he has, as they say, SO much to
gain and nothing to lose. Sagscious poll
ticiars take different view, They regard
Hendricks as a secondary light, who can
only be improved by the reflection of
Pendleton's influence and friendship. His
remaining on the track will injure his
chances.
The Senate Committee on WAYS and
Means have declared against the PROPOSE
ton to tax the interest on bonds. They
have a holy dread of Jay Cooke before
them, and dare not cut loose from the
money power. There is no likelihood that
any bill can be got through the Senate
looking to the taxation of the bonds or the
interest on bonds. The Radicals in the
House, particularly old Thad Stevens and
Ben Butler are very angry, and threaten
to apply the pressure.
A bill was introduced to-day converting
Congress Immediately after the Presiden-
tial election. You can imagine the reason.
1t is one point in the game of revelation
which / telegraphed you week ago. The
bill will undoubtedly pass.
The Tennessee Senators, after some very
hard and uphill work, this afternoon Sc
cured an appropriation of $4,000 for
at Nashville. The State
capital of Tennessee is not popular among
the Radicals, and this measure was secretly
opposed by most of the Brownlow agents in

A cOIoRED man in Richmond, Virginia,
John Dabney by name, purchased his free
dom from his mistress just before the war
forS2o0o, agreeing to pay the amount BY
installments. During the tendency OF the
struggle he paid about oHe-half of it in
Confederate currency, which was at last SO
deprecated in value that his late mistress
requested him to discontinue the payments

slavery was abolised, the debt was Of course

A LATE letter from Rome announces the
opening Of the canal which leads from the
Ostian marshes to the sea, and will carry
off several large stagnsnt lakes near Tore
Paderas and give to cultivation large
tract of hitherto waste land. All the low
and pestilential marsh land between the
sea and O5tia, hitherto unreclaimed, and
appropriately termed the Campo Morto,
will be by the new canal completely
drained and brought into state of COM
paratively salubrity and utility. Extern

the shore, which will give employment to
the hitherto miserable and fever stricken
population.

II We may place implicit faith in
the assertions of writers now in Chi
ma, the reason civilization has never
extended in chat Empire is because
the religion Of the people is of the
dead, and their every motive of ae-
ton has reference to the dead. The
present Chinamen are dragging thir-
ty generations around with them. A
railroad running ten miles in China
would distnrb the whole spirit realm.
Unlucky strokes from spades might
sever skulls from vertebr@ III some
ancestral burial ground, and then
there would be headless ghosts wan
dering through the land Of darkness,
and sickness, pestilenee, calamity
and untold horrors would settle upon
China. The whole Empire is repre-.
scented to be a graveyard. 1t Is beg
ged of Burlingame and his support
ers to hurry up telegraph and rail
road operations there. When thai
screeching innovator, the locomo
tive, begins to run across the plain
of the Flowery Land, blowing lip ol,
bones, breaking the chains whicl
bind the living to the dead, then, i
is averred, there will be hope for Chi
ma. Hurry up the esw-eatehers 70

THE PIETY AND MORALITY
OF RADICAIISM.

The Radical party affects to be
very pious, sanity, and virtuOus. 1t
has claimed that It possessed all the
deceney and has called itself the par
ty of great moral ideas. 1t invaria-
bly, speaks of the best evidences of
civilization as its special property,
and thanks God that it Is not like
those other men-the Democrats.
But the professed morality and hon
esty of Radicalism is a cheat and d
dslusion. The party is not only reek-
ing with corruption, but 1t is the
wickedest party that this country
was ever afflicted with. The BIAS
phemies ofits leaders are shocking to
the moral sense. One of its chief ora
tors, Carl Schurz, declared that "God
is only an imaginary being, the BIZ
Bile is only fit to amuse children, and
the Christian Sabbath is a relic of
barbarism.n Parson Brownlow in
his speech to the Radicals Of Phila-
delphia, said, ''I would rather 90 to
hell with loyal negro than to hea-
ven with Uopperhead.n = The late
Thaldeus Stevens, long the Radical
| leader in Congress, was q self-declar
ed infidel, believing neither In God
nor d future state, and lived in open
eoncubinage with q negro woman
who bore him several children. Joe
Brown, the Radical leader in Geor-
gia, before he was reconstructed,
said "Let us fill hell full enough
of Federal soldiers to make their feet
stick out through the bars Ben
Butler recently exhibited his knowl-
edge of the Bible by attributing to
Stephen the words, Forgive them,
Father, for they know not what they
do Ben, Wade, the man whom
they wanted to make President,

ing them with aeurse. Senator Yates

A WORD TO BoNDHoLDERs,


1t is said that CongressmanBlaine,
the manager Of the Radical party In
Maine, expended between four and
five hundred thousand dollars in the
purchase of votes. II the same sum
be used in each of the great States
whose approaching elections are sup
nqsea to control the result of the
Presidential contest, we shall have
consolation of knowing that small
share of sums stolen from the people
has been extorted from remorseless
thieves who would perpetuate exist
ing systems of intolerable taxation.
It would be Infinitely wiser on the
part Of national banks and bond
holders if they stood aloof from this
contest. Just SO surely asthe Sher'
man bill, extending the bonded In
debtsdRes2 through forty years, il
adopted, so surely will the whole
debt be repudiated. The people are
willing to redeem these bonds in the
currency paid for them by the hold
ers but to fasten this mighty debt
upon this and succeeding genera,
tions, ,augn1enting the sum to be paid
by six hundred millions, is ealami'
| ty never to be borne. RddicotiSn
and not Democracy, means repudia'
ton.

Gently occurred In Whitley county,
] A manof the name Of DavidM Long,
of Smith township III that county,
married a negro weneh for his third
wife, and beat his daughter by a for-
mer marriage, a girl of about sixteen
years of age, until he compelled her
to marry a buck negro. The facts
are thus detailed:
A white man by the name Of David
M Long, q Republican in good po-
lttical standing with his party, and
| who. has been q citizen of this place
for many years, has been successful
! ingulping down the last plank In
the black-and-tan platform. ij
This monster has been a widower
twice. His former wives were re-
! speeted by all who knew them, BY
these marriages he had Ave children
two boys and three girls-who, too,
are respected and esteemed. y#a
1 The memory of the dead and the
/ fair fame Of the living have been
blackened by, this unnamed beast, by
uniting himself toa negro wench in
marriage.
| Knowing that he could not procure
4 a license in our county for such an
| alliance, he takes his muscle mate
rial with him to Michigan, where, by
the laws of that State, the twain were
made one flesh. ia'Hp
This little victory OF Republican
principles being won, he returned to
his family with her to whom his lit
tie ones must bow, and, whom they
must call by that most endearing
name, mother. fl
| Those children, who had often in
their fond reeolleetiOns for the loved
in the grave, amid binding tears,
whispered that sweet name in their
prayers, now are commanded to for
| get the treasures Of the tomb. Be
fore them stood the repulsiye fOrmof
their fatherls wild choice. Her, to
call motherl There was too much Of
forgetfulness toward the dead In
this.
The little ones, who had no one 10
whom they could look for protection
but their father, whom they had
/ never disobeyed in the least, now for
the first time, declined obedience,
when, to obey, would be sacrifice
to their honor. To embrace her and
call her mother, seemed to them
more of the character of a punish
ment than duty, and they refused,
and for this refusal the eldest daugh-
ter, sixteen years Of age, was whip
| ped and beaten by him who claimed
to be her father, until she was liter
ally covered with bruises. After be-
ing 50 cruelty beaten, she sought and
found refuge with one of the neigh

threat of taking her life should she

He told her that, unless she did re-
turn to the family within fifteen min

She returned, but to meet a worse
