Now for the Presidency.

The Radicals having staked their all
Oh Connecticut, and proclaimed far and
wide that the election of Jewell would
he an Endorsement of General Grant for
President; and, still further, having
adorned their ballots with the head
line, Grant and Jewel" under which
were pictures of these worthless, it be-
comes interesting to forecast the pro-
bable resalt of the Presidential cleo
ton, based upon that of the recent con-
test in Connecticut. We have, there
fore, colated few figures bearing upon
the point, showing the majorities given
by the States to be enumerated at their
last general election, their probable ma
iOrities next fall, based upon the vote of
the two contending parties i'll COnnecti-
cut, and the electoral votes to which
they will be entitled, and which they
will be likely to cast for the Democra-
tic candidate.

The Kanawha river coal has large
proportion of volatile matter and small
proportion of ashes, similar to the
Youghiogheny coal. 1t is in fact very
superior article, admirably adapted to
the manufacture of iron. There are
other varieties of coal in the Kanawha
Valley which may be found to be still
better for smelling ores; and there are
also several varieties of ores; but this
paper is not intended 10 be exhaustive,
but merely as an outline designed to at
tract the attention of Pittsburgh iron
manufacturers to the advantages which,
according to my view, the valley OF
the Kanawha offers for the cheap pro-
duct of iron, and for the present invest
ment of capital.
At present | would refer TO the main
features only, merely glancing at the
sources of profitable investment now OF.
fering in the Kanawha Valley under the
following heads:
1st. Lands containing abundance of
good bituminOus coal; veins to q
feet thick.
ID. Lands containing veins of good
camel coal; veins over feet thick;
some in juxtapositiOn with feet of BIZ
luminous coal. (Oil of excellent quail
ity was made from the Kanawha camel
coal, to good profit till it was super
seded by the discovery of petroleum.
Sd. Lands containing several veins III
the same hills of good iron ore varying
in thickness from one foot to three feet
or more, the same lands containing also
coal.
4th. Lands containing the said coal
and iron, and also limestone and fire
clay; and all of these lands having a
fair supply of timber; and convenient
to the river.
5th. Lands containing profitable
working salt wells, with coal conve-
nient on the same tracts.
9th. The navigation of the Kanawha
river. This is in the hands of a char
tered company, and needs only a mod
crate amount of capital and intelligent
energy, in connection with the proper
development of the iron and coal, to
render it as profitable or even more
profitable than the navigation on the
Monongahela river.
All these things are now to be had at
very low prices; and if taken hold of
and developed, as they may be and
ought to be, by entorprising men, will,
according to my Judgment, afford Il
very large return upon the present in
vestment of capital. r.

Several States which the Democrats
will contest closely with the Radicals,

candidate in the fall, are omitted from
the above table, to wit: MIuNesOta,

this latter State is gradually approach
ing the Democratic line. The calcula-
ton is made without including the
electoral votes of the Southern States,
since at the present rate of recOnstruc-

petual majority in Congress-they
would not be readmitted TO the Union

Wendell Phillips says that he does not deny
that the South has brains-he only denies
that the South has a right to have brains
Hence he argues that what Southern people
think is of no sort of consequence Having
no right to have brains, they have no right to
have opinions. They have no right to edu-
cate themselves they must be educated
according to the Massachusetts, plan. Until
this is accomplished, there will never be
peace IN the country. Precisely so; there
never was peace and never can be peace as
long as anybody thinks differently from Mr..
Phillips and his party-as long as anybody
imagines that liberty of opinion and liberty
OF action ought to be enjoyed outside of the
radical organization. Mr. Phillips has stated
the case quite accurately. The cause of all
the trouble is that people will not consent to
think as he thinks, and believe as he believes.
They may have brains, but they have no right
to have brains; they may even have rights,
but they have no right to have rights. Radi-
cal doctrine and radical practice could not
have been more consisely and more truth
fully described.

Mr. Brooks contemplated the Acknowledgement
of white men; but the radicals, whilst they in
sist that suffrage is a natural and sacred right,
are quite willing to prevent white men from
enjoying it. Their theory is that everybody
has a right to vote, and this theory they assert
TO be the cornerstone of their reconstruction
policy. Their practice is that nobody shall
vote, if they can help it, that does not vote
the radical ticket.

real elements of wealth and prosperity are
yet within the grasp of all our people than
was yesterday furnished by the receipt of
package of new potatoes and box of ripe

Prather, near Carrollton, which has only been
under cultivation since the past fall. The
berries are large, luscious and have a deli
cious flavor, while the potatoes vary in cir

of them having an aggregate weight of as
many pounds, less three ounces. Mr.. Pra-
ther informs us that similar products of his
little farm are to be found at Henning's gro
cery, 81 Camp street, and at Ballejo's, corner

R- See Supplement.

Our dispatches say that Butler, on behalf
of the impeachment managers, has seized
on the private kilograms which were sent from
Washington on Friday last. Before the rise
of the radical party so audacious a violation
of private rights would not have been VEN
tured by the most daring officer, or tolerated
by the public. In England a postmaster
general was driven from Office, for opening
letters confded to the mails. The English
people would not submit patiently to such a
usurpation, although the act did not affect the
correspondence of British subject But in
the United States, and under the "best gov
eminent the world ever saw" the leaders of
the dominant party perpetrate outrages which
the public opinion of the civilized world con-
dennis, and which, if committed at all, in
any European countries, are studiously con-
cealed from the public gaze. The worst and
the saddest feature of the affair is that acts
like these seem to excite no remonstrance
and but little comment. The American peo-
pie have become so familiarized with tyranny
that they no longer seem to understand lib
erty; and they have submitted so long to the
arrogance of despotical party they seem
to have forgotten the existence of their rights.
The worst effect of submission to tyranny is
that it weakens and finally destroys all respect
for justice, and all desire for freedom; and
when that time arrives permanent despot-
ism is not only probable, but sure. If the
people of this country do not very soon rid
themselves of the supremacy of that lawless,
domineering and tyrannical faction which has
controlled the government for the last eight
years, they will lind in saving what they call
the national life" they have slain liberty.
