RADICAL DOMINATION.

In the good old Democratic times,
when the people of the north and the
south were alike interested in the well
fare and prosperity of each other, and
when the two sections were equally
prosperous, they We'd with each other
in promoting the best interests of
the whole, The year before the war
broke out, the south exported cotton,
&c. to the amount of $S40, 900, 000.-
Since the Radicals came into power,
the south has exported nothing, and
she eve will, w can, under Radi-
cal rule and negro domination. While
the south was thus exporting so large
ly, the north exported at the rate OF
about SS4,ooo,oOo a year. The south
then contributed most to the general
prosperity, in so far as that prospect
ty was affected by our business trans
actions with foreign countries. En-
couraged in idleness and crime by
Radical leaders, the negroes have not,
and never will have the intelligence,
and industry, and enterprise necessa-
ry to develop the exhaustless resour,
ces of that garden land. But these
are not the only effects of Radical
domination. The Radicals, among
other things, have disfranchised the
whites, and enfranchised the negro
They have erected five military des-
potisms, who have a large standing
army under them ; they have destroy
ed civil authority and civil tribunals
they have abrogated trial by jury; )
they have swept away the writ of ha-
beas corpus /; they have created the
costly, annoying and corrupt freed
mems bureau, with its numerous off.
GERS and employees. They are respon'
sible for negro conventions with their
ignorance, vice and hatred. They
have encroached upon the powers and
privileges of the President, and are
now engaged in an effort to depose
him and put in his place q man who
will be the supple tool of the party.
They have attempted to silence the
supreme court, five of whom we're ap.
pointed by Lincoln. They have
caused the u~nspeakablc restitution
and desolation of the south, and thus
increased the burdens of the north,
and they have thrown the balance Of
political power into the hands of the
negro, making Florida equal to New
York in the Z. S. Senate.
Such are some of the effects of Rad.
zeal Domination. Should the Demo.
cratic party be invested with power
it will restore the southern states to
equality in the Union under the dom.
nation of the white race; it viii
sweep away all military despotism
and restore the reign of civil power.
1t will reduce the standing army,
abolish the freedman's bureau and
make free the entire southern people.

DISTRICT ArroRNEYsurp.-We see
L. Jay S. Turney is out in a card in
which he states that he desires to be
nominated by the "Union Convcn-
%tion," which will be held on the oath
inst. for the District Attorneyship of
the Sd Judicial District. lie says he
has held the Office of States Attorney
in Illinois and thinks he is qualified
for the Office. We concur with Gov
ernor Turney as to his entire fitness
for the station /; but We can assure
him he will not be nominated. The
triggers have been already set, and
some ono of the faithful in Linn coun-
ty will probably be tho fortunate
nominee. Our friend, Judge Powell,
would like to have the nomination,
and he who "bucks" against him must
be up and doing. Go it Judge,-go
it Governor.

REruRNED.-Mr. R. G. Crawford, u.
s. Revenue Collector, returned from
Douglas county, on last Thursday. He
had been out to look after f. M. john
son. the alleged Revenue defaulter. He
found 'swhere he had BEEN" but the bird
had flown. The Government will lose
nothing by the operation, but Johnson's
bondsmen will have TO pay about $4,000
which they are abundantly able to do.
Fast living, and lack of Judgment in
business, are said to be the cause of this
unfortunate affair.-C orvollts Gazette.
