The Issue of The Campaign.

Will the Country have Peace
or War?
WAsHrNaroN. July 10


Senator Morton's speech in the
Senate last evening, is commented
upon by. all Republicans as striking
the key note of the present campaign.
1t was, in full, as follows:
Mr.. Morton do not rise so
much to discuss the various PROPOSE
tions relative to counting the electoral
vote as to say that [ am for that of
fered by the Senator from Vermont,
believing that it is more specific and
direct than the other two, but perhaps
any one of them would answer the
purpose. / desire, however, to say
one word in regard to the Importance
of this measure. We have been not
ing the proceedings of a Convention
held ia the city of New York, which
has Just adjourned. / have read the
resolutions adopted by the Conven-
ton. The platform or principle, as
laid down, and upon which It's candi-
dates have been placed, and | wish to
call the attention of the Senate to the
issue that is presented to the country
by this platform and by the character
OF these candidates.
General Grant. in his letter of ac-
eeptance, said: " Let us have peace"
But the Democratic party, by their
convention In New York, have said:
Let US have war, there shall be no
peace. They have declared in SUBJ
stance, | might say perhaps on direct
terms, that thereeonstruction of these
States under the several acts of Con
gress shall not be permitted To stand.
but shall be overturned bv military
force. If they get the power they
have announced that there shall he
no peace In this country; that there
shall be no settlement OF our troubIes-
except upon the condition of the III
umph of those who have been In re-
bellion. This platform and these
nominations are a declaration of the
renewal of the rebellion. Let me
call your attention to a part of the
eighth resolution, in regard to this
very question: In speaking of there
construction of the States, they go on
to say that 8 the power to regulate
suffrage exists with each State, max
ing no difference between loyal States
that have been at peace, and States
that hare been in rebellion, putting
them all upon the same footing, and
that any attempt by Congress, on

ShaakJia, at the Seymour ratification
The man who has been most bold
to make the statement which was so
pointedly denounced at the SEYMOUR
ratification meeting on Saturday night,
was the managing editor of the Gin
cinnati EnQMarer, who was in attend
ance on the Convention, and probably
had as good opportunities of knowing
as the proprietor y of the Courier.
In his dispatches to his paper of We'd
nesday last, he says:
The candidate of the people has been de-
feated bH a combination OF the 9nonfed in
teTeSt Of The East, with lew enviOuS and
Jealous partisans of the West.

delegation who cannot endure the thought
that he land not they should be SO highly
honored.
The people were betrayed by men whom
they trusted, and Mr.. Pe9ldEet01a 9UdS de-
Isated by treacherg.
The issue is squarely made, and we
leave it to the Democratic editors to
fight it out among themselves.

H9HIH IN Polilical Notes. 9rnH


THE nomination of II. T. KER-
cHIyAL, ESQ, Of Roekport, Ind, BY
81 the Spencer County Republican Com
vention, was a capital choice. He is
fine speaker, an ardent Republican,
and a true man. He will be triumph
autly elected, and will make. not only
for Spencer County, but for the First
District, one of the most useful Rep
Fesentatiyes in the Legislature,
1e7 MAYOR WAIRER, in introducing
Colonel CHARLES Denny to the DEM
gIlDeratic meeting in this city on Satur-
q day nigh pronounced him the lead
ing Democrat of che First District"
Mr.. SHANKLIN, in his speech, de-
clared for Colonel DENBY as his first
choice for Congress. But it appears
the Colonel doggedly resists fiat
terry and entreaty, and will not con-
sent to make the race. Even the CT
tation of " Felix's reply to the Sa-
yiour, made by the proprietor of the
Courier, has not moved him. If he
could see no attractions for the Con-
slaughter of PENDLEToN, race
against General VEATcH, since that
event, will not be very tempting to
him. He will hardly enact the role
Of SEYMoURs feigned declination.
Hon. DAvY LAIRD has been badly
treated He had a nice little ar
rangement fixed up for his own spe-
cial benefit, but some wicked Copper
head leaders have spoiled it ALL He
wants the nomination from the Con-
gressional Convention which meets in
this city on the 23rd inst. aud is doing
all he can TO secure it. But In de-
fault of that, he is willing to accept
the place of Judge of the Common
Pleas Court, which he now holds.
The Judicial District Convention, was
at his instigation, called for the 18th
inst, two days after the Congression-
al Convention. But in order to get
him out of the way for the Congress
sional race, the " leaders" have
changed the time for meeting of the
Judicial Convention to. the 10th inst,
so the Hon. Davy must take the
Judgeship now, or give up altogether,
ia and run the chances Of Pendleton-
ian slaughter at the Congressional
Convention. Tie is In a peck of
troubles" but we predict will follow
Democratic precedents aud take the
first thing in sight,
TIE speakers at the Democratic
meeting in this city last Saturday
night in the most effective way re-
e buked the mendacity and shameless
ness Of the Evansville Courier, by
cOnceding that General GRANT was
an able soldier. That Sheet has pro-
nounced him a failure and an i'm
beetle, but neither the "editor or
its readers believed IL.
We hope our readers will give a
careful per1sal to the speech OF SEN
ator MORTON. delivered in the Senate
Last week, which we publish in this
issue. Itstrikes the keynote of the
campaign. The real issueAas pre-
sented by the platform and candidates
of the New York Convention, is
Peace or Wdr. and Senator MORTON
plsces this before the people in his
usually able and clear manner.
