the Democracy in November"
The copperhcads Arc thankful for very small
favors, and when those hvors arc not voluntary
and ready to hand they manufacture them.
They are now industriously circulating the
story that Mr.. o. L. Grant, . merchant in
Chicago and brother Of the General, Is an or
deal supporter Of Seymour and Blair. They ars
20 merry over the matter that II seems pity to
deny them 50 small orumb Of comfort, but Il
mustbe done. In recent letter Mr.. Grant
says: ...........
81 am sound as nut ON Grant and ColfaI-
Am strong in the republican faith, always have
been, and hope to be, and have no idea how
ANY person could get an impression to the con-
trary. II you hear any one say that U. L..
Grant will vote the democratic ticket, you can
use my name In contrsdicting It."
Humphrey Marshall, the tat Rebel General,
who never won fight during the war. In .
speech at Louisville on Tuesday, alluded with
sorrow to the downfall Of the glorious Confeder-
scy, adding: "But here am in the old Demo
cratic party. and. with Gods help, may never
be anywhere else" That's the place for him.
Vilk,' Spirit reports that no one has &c
cepted the $4,000 bet offered by that paper that
Grant will be elected, and now offers to make
the odds three to two in Grants favor.
P.H sibley, a member Of the California
Democratic State Committee, announces him
self for Grant aud Colfsx.
Kentucky Is no better pleased with the demo-
cratic ticket than arc the members Of the party
in this section. The afflicted fellows say, with
traces Of tears In their eyes, that Il Is oil for the
best, and that they are nrm and united for the
ticket.
Supporters Of Grant-Sherman, Sheridan,
Thomas, Meade, Farragut, and eight out Of ten
other loyal officers and men who fought under
the Stars and Stripes during the Rebellion,
Supporters Of scymour-Beauregad, Forrest,
Hampton, Semmes, Toombs and ninc-tenths Of
the Rebels who fought under the Stars and
Bars This fact needs no comment.
The Mobile Tribune Seymour and Blair)
says. "Let us bc up and doing Let US form
our clubs in every city, in every town, and in
every village Of Alabama. We must, in the
first place, break up the loyal leagues, and to
do this II Is only necessary that the negroes
should be properly instructed. Point out to the
negroes tho way they should 80. Tell them that
the carpet-baggcrs in the Legislature are the
veriest scum thrown up by the boiling cauldron
Of the late revolutionary war; that they are Q
gang Of political vagabonds on the prowl for
plumber, and they will surely aid you in drir-
ing the unprineipled wretehe' from the State"
Gen. Frank Blair, in his speech in Omaha
the other day, said that there was but one race
In our country who were capable ofmaintaining
free Government, and the result Of the past
few years had demonstrated the fact that only
portion Of that one rice were thus qualified.
Thereupon some one In the crowd shouted, ~
suppose that's the Blair family;" but he was at
once pounccd upon by those near him and most
numerically pounded. When wcariod they let
him up, and then discovered that he was one Of
their own number, q genuine Democratic sop,
well saturated. "Billee ." said one, chidingly,
"them was the onfortinous wordsye ever spoke"
And he seemed to think they were.
Our Southern friends have not been cured Of
their narrow-mindcd intolerance by the horrors
Of war. Wade Hampton proposes, If oolored men
don't vote for Blair and Seymour. that the white
chivalry combine and not give them either en-
ployment or food. This Is fine specimen Of De-
mocracy. What howl would 60 through the
land, II some one Of the large manufacturing es-
Establishments at the North that favor Grant and
Colfax, should say to the men in thcir employ.
you must not expect any more work unless you
vote our ticket. We fancy there would be row
In that establishment, as there should be, with
such unwarri ntablc interference with the rights
Of citizens.
Brick Pomeroy announces that he will take
the stump for Seymour and Blair during the
coming campaign. II he will only como to
Maine the %, 900 majority ofwhich We arc now
sure would be increased at least 5000.
In Virginia the Democrats have one Lafsy-
cite Washington, negro and virginian, stump
ing the State against the new Constitution. He
Is regarded with great favor BY the Democracy,
and Is fully recognized as a"man and broth
er."
An artist advcrtiscs portraits Of Mr. Blair
''in fifteen different positions" Ater the
election he can give siItcen-one Of them "facc
down."
While In Richmond, Chief Justice Chase, In
conversation with one Of the judges there, said
that the republicans in Congress wero needless
ly frightened about the Supreme Court at the
time the bill was passed restricting tho urisdic-
ton Of the court so that Il could not pass upon
cases involving the reconstruction laws, because,
As Mr.. Chase said, the court would have dcci-
ded them constitutional.
Grant greatly incenses the Rebels by not
speaking more. lie win have more to say on
the lth Of next March than they will want to
hear.
REPuprArrs SEYMOUR. One Of the most
prominent Democrats In this section Of Essex
county, whose popularity and influence In that
marty Is second TO none In this vicinity, recently
representing them In Official station. openly do
nounces and repudiates the nomination OF Sey-
mour and Blair thoroughly loyal to his coun-
try, he will give no aid or support 70 ticket In
the interest Of rebellion. His high character
and influence will have much weight hereabouts,
and We know Of scores Of Democrats In this city,
among the rank and hle, who already refuse to .
swallow Seymour, and go for Grant and Col
fax the changes OF this character will astonish
some Of the unterriRed when the polls arc open
