am not insensible to your trials
and sufferings; the loss of friends.
prosperity and power, and exclusion
from all part or lot in voting away
your last pittance, is bitter indeed.
But hollow as the ordinary plati-
tudes sound in the sufferers ear.
may it not be in the good providence
OF God, to prove to the uttermost
the quality of your people, and lead
them through these dark ways to
higher and nobler career beyond.
L at least am determined to hope
SO, and L doubt not may live to see
the day when we shall all be once
more happy and united people,
dwelling in peace under the protec-
tion of the Constitution and within
the gentle clasp of our old Union.
Then, indeed, South Carolina and
Massachusetts, may cordially embrace,
and the fortunate spokesman of my
State, that day, will represent the
whole instead of fraction of her
people.
I shall leave home on Monday next
and proceed without delay to Co.

The Land of Blood and Triumphant DEM
Ocracy.

Texas is considered the Eden of "Consti-
tutional Democracy" and is supposed to dis
count Kentucky in its devotion to Southern
rights" In this Democratic State to declare
in favor of supporting the United States
Government is to advertise oneself as free
target for the rifle or revolver of any blood
thirsty Seymour and Blair worshipper who
feels disposed to have an "Aboltionist'' for
breakfast. There is absolutely no security
for the life or property of a Union man in
Texas, and the crimson hand of assassina.
ton and murder overshadows that vast do
main. On the soil of this magnificent extent
Of territory, purchased by the blood and
treasure Of the people Uf the United States,
no loyal man dares set his foot and live, un-
less protected by United States soldiers. 1t
is high time this diabolical state of affairs
was remedied, and General Grant is Just the
man to do it, when seated in the Presidential
chair.
In order to show that this statement of the
condition of affairs in Texas is not overdrawn
or exaggerated, we append some statistics
from the report drawn up by committee of
the late Constitutional Convention, body
compelled to convene under the protection of
the United States forces stationed at the
Texan capital. This report says that 959
homicides 1.-THE Texan term for murder) have
been committed in Texas since the date
of Lees surrender. OF these, AGA were
whites by whites, 373 freedmen by whites,
10 whites by freedmen, As freedmen by
freedmen, and 48 by parties whose race is
unknown. The great majority of the whites
killed by whites were Union men, and their
slayers secessionists. The fact that only 10
whites were killed by the freedmen, while 1878
of the latter were killed, goes to prove that
the ex-rebels of that State are not sufficiently
reconstructed to hurt them much, and that
they are not quite 80 lamb-like in their char
acter as the Democratic oracles of the North
would have us believe. Texas is to. dav a
fair sample of what the entire South would
be in the event of Seymour's election. What
reasonable man can doubt it?

Antiquity of Brandreth's Pills.

physicians when the bowels call loudly for help
because they mover fail to open and give relief
Hundreds of thousands would consider it a ca

BRANDRETH's PILLS sold than all other pill.

A FEARFUL INCIDENT-A letter from Fort
Larned to the Leavenworth Times tells the
following thrilling story:
A most fearful and appalling circum-
stance transpired at the Fort last evening,
the very recollection of which chlls my
blood with horror. While party of ladies
and gentlemen were sitting in front of the
beautiful quarters of Colonel Ed. Wyncoop,
Indian Superintendent or Agent of several
warlike tribes, the entire party almost in
voluntarily commenced beautiful song
While the melody was ringing in the night
air, monstrous, shaggy, and rabid wolf
dashed madly into the midst of the party,
first attacking Lieutenant Thompson, Third
United States Infantry, tearing and lacerat-
ing his limbs in a most fearful manner. The
monster then broke away, pursued by Colo
mel Wyncoop and his chief scout, James
harrison, who had lost no time in procuring
proper arms Before either of these fearless
gentlemen, however, could overtake him. the
wolf had attacked the sentry at the guard
house, whom he also bit savagely-the SEN
tinel having fired, but most unfortunately,
missed his aim. From the guard house the
wolf next dashed over to the hospital and
made an assault upon one of the men there
stationed, almost tearing his right arm from
his body. after first taking off a finger en-.
tire. He then attacked and mutilated a CO.
lored soldier of the Tenth Cavalry, and sub
sequently entered the quarters ofa laundress,
while she was in bed, but, owing tie the
thickness of the bed-clothes, fortunately
failed to iuflict any serious injury on the
poor woman. The maddened creature next
caught sight of the sentinel at the hay.
stacks, who, almost, providentially, shot him
dead. besides Lieutenant Thompson there
are three persons badly bitten and mutilated
by this monster.

FERMoNT.-The election for Governor and
State officers came off in Vermont on the 1st
inst, and resulted in the success of the Re-
publican ticket by majority of 30,000-a
gain of 1000 over Lincoln's vote in 1864. On
the reception of the news at this place, on
Wednesday evening, the Union boys cele-
brated the event by firing a salate, building
bonfire, firing off rockets and cheering for
Vermont and Victory. The Brass Band
turned out and played several patriotic tunes,
and everybody went home determined to
strive more energetically to redeem our own
State from Democracy in November

LET THE DEAD PAST BURY ITS EEAD.-On
the reception of Hon. George c.. Gorham,
Secretary of the U. S. Senate, at Sacramento,
last week, he remarked 81 have no unkind
remembrances of Abe past. Let the dead
past bury its dead" Here we behold a noble
example Of maGnanimity- example wor-
thy of emulation and praise. Though SIAN
dered, insulted and defeated by members of
the Union party, Gorham buries all personal
resentment, forgives all injuries, and, like
the whole souled, generous man that he is,
blots out the animosities of the past, and sets
out for the future with no wounds or wrongs
to avenge. This resolution exhibits inherent
greatness, and true nobility of character
which the people of California will yet de-
light to honor With Gorham the good of
the Union organization rises superior to all
other considerations. In order to harmonize
and cement the Union sentiment of Califor-
MIA, and render victory certain in the present
campaign, he willingly wipes out the record
Of the wrongs inflicted upon him, and points
the way to victory. All honor to George c.
Gorham, the magnanimous gentleman and
devoted patriot

DEMoCRATIc.-Great dissatisfaction exists
among the Democrats of the First District in
regard to the manner in which party affairs
are conducted, and mass meeting was call
ed in San Francisco last week, for the pur-
pose of protesting against the action of GER
tain cliques and wire-pullers. Before
the meeting could be organized, however, a
crowd of Axtell's friends assembled around
the stand, armed with potatoes, tomatos,
eggs, ETC., declaring they would give warm
reception to the first man who attempted to
organize boiling meeting. No one had the
courage to set himself up as target for rot
ten eggs, and the crowd dispersed. Such is
free speech among Democrats; but the dis
satisfied will have an opportunity of entering
their protest at the polls, and they will do it.

1t is truly astounding 10 observe the

mortal enemy John Cessna has been
all his life, is now going about the coun-
try retailing stories about Judge Kim
NELL, in order to make votes for his
beloved Cessna. Judge Kimnell has
been informed Of the tales told BY the
Major, especially those circulated by
him in Southampton, and he authori-
ze5 US to pronounce them false from be-
giuning to end. 1t is truly won derful
that a man who lays claim to rs much
pectability as Maj. Washabaugh
should humiliate himself by entering
the service ofsuch creature as John
Cessna. When that depth is reached,
the man stands on the very DO tom Of
degradation.
