If we have to fight for it. The Georgia
massacre is the sequel of the New Orleans
massacre. We have been bandying defni-
tons upon the stump, as to when the war
ended. 1t has not ended. 1t is like those
tales of blood and thunder, that used to form
the burden of Gleason's Pictorial, all the
piquancy Of which was aggravated by the an
nouncement that interrupted some half-devel-
oped houor-to be continued.
The war will be.continued till the fiendsh
cruelty that fires the rebel heart is trampled
out on the battlefield or strangled out upon
the gallows. Nothing will teach these barba-
rians humanity. Their hearts are as impen-
etrable to Christian ideas, as their brains are
to any comprehension of the rights of other
men. They are used only to the high old
methods, still extant upon the steppes of
Asia, of earning their livelihood and gather
weak within their reach.
The question is becoming this, can the
United States govern the territory over
which il claims jurisdiction in the interest of
civilization. Can it protect the poor and the
unarmed people from being plundered and
murdered. Texas, all the rebel region, more
or less, reeks with unpunished murder. The
blood of inoffensive men and women, citi-
zens of the United States, friends and de-
tenders of the national cause, cries TO heaven
and has cried for the last three years. Is the
United States strong enough to protect its
citizens from being shot down like dogs,
without so much as a coroner's inquest to ex-
anime the cause? If not let England, France
Russia and the other Christian powers be
called in to perform the function of sove-
reignty which the United States have abdi-
Gated. If such state of things existed in
Turkey as has existed in the United States
for the last three years, the great powers of
Europe would consider themselves called up
on to intervene and restore order and peace.
1t is of little consequence how this last out
break of rebel vengeance and mahgnity occur
red. The negroes seem to have been massa-
cred because they aoere armed. At New Or
leans they were massacred because they were
not armed. They are bound to be murdered
any how, because the demons who were once
their masters resent the idea of their arro-
eating the prerogatives of citizens and of hui
man beings. When the wolf makes up his
mind to make meal OF lamb, it is no mat
ter whether he drinks up stream or down
stream,-he will be slaughtered all the same.
Whether a man shall walk armed to con-
vention or in a procession is question sub
mitted to his own prudence. 1t will depend
upon the perils he runs. If scoundrels are
throwing brck-bats, or firing random shots,
prudence would seem to dictate that he
should go armed. He is to judge of what the
contingency requires upon his own respon-
sity.
When the constitution of the United
States made the black men of Georgia citizens
of the United States it threw around them
this protection: "The right of the people to
keep and be ararms shall not be iafringed."

Preparation Of wh,t.w....

Whitewash is very valuable ertiele and
ought to be used much more than 1t is. II
not only prevents the decay of wood, but con-
duces to the healthiness of all buildings, ,wheth
er of wood or stone. Out-buildings and
fences, when not painted, should be supplied
once or twice a year with good coat of
white wash. 1t always makes fences and out
buildings look clean and nice. And the
farmer who uses it frequently may be set
uowh as thrifty one. A sloven and slug
gard never uses the article. The journal of
Chemistry gives the following method OF max
ing it:
Take clean water-tight barrel or other
suitable cask, and put into it half a bushel of
lime. Slake il by pouring water over it, boil
ing hot, and in sufficient quantity to cover IL
in. deep, and stir it briskly till thoroughly
slaked When the shaking has been thorough
y effected, dissolve it In water, and add two
pounds OF sulphate OF zinc and one of COM
mon salt; these will cause the wash to hard
en-, and prevent its cracking, which gives an
unseemly appearance to the work. Ii desira-
bic, beautiful cream color may be commu-
nlcated to the above wash by adding three
pounds of yellow ochre; or a good pearl or
lead color, by the addition of lamp, vine, or
ivory Dlack. For lawn color, add four pounds
of umber, Turkish or American, the latter is
the cheapest, one pound of Indian red, one
pound OF common lampblack. This wash
may be applied with a common whitewash
brush, and will be found much superior both
in appearance and durability to the common
whitewash.
We have seen whitewash made very nearly
in the way above directed, and it was an ex-
eellent article. The materials are cheap, and
every one can procure them and make his
own whitewash.

The women of Philadelphia have estab-
lished women's hospital in that city. The
women practitioners have often been voted
down in Philadelphia, but have held their
own, and are now making their enterprise per-
manent. The North American says: @Female
physicians everywhere have hard time of it.
The regulars cough them down; homeopa-
thists pronounce them imposters; even the
eclectics deride them. They are excluded
from hospital practice, and from the clinics
open to the regular student. Despite all the
discouragements, they have sustained female
medical college, and have a woman's hospital,
from which, with far from censurable retalia-
ton, they exclude all male practitioners, The
women's hospital is now fixed fact in the
history of human suffering. More than this,
it has attained standing that cannot be pooh
poohed. 1t is situated in North College ave-
nue., directly back of Girard college. The ses-
sion which has Just closed has been one ot
much interest. All the chairs of the college
have been filed. The clinical advantages of
tho str.,srts have been increased, both by the
greater number of patients treated IN the va,
1r;ons denartments of the women's hospital
and nv 4 more systematic course OF clinical
lectures by the professors OF the college.

FALsEHooDs OF THE Associated PRESS.
We have ON more than one occasion called
attention to the systematic course of false
hood and Misrepresentation pursued by the
Southern agents OF the Associated Press
Upon every subject that relates 10 Republi-
cans, or to the colored people, they send out
reports that are entire and unmitigated false
hoods, or so colored and exaggerated by par
tisan feeling as to convey an utterly false i'm
preston. The Baltimore American, refer
ring to this matter says:
We frequently discard these dispatches al
together, and never publish them without
giving our readers a warning against their
Enthusiastically character. But the Demo
cratic papers greedily, and too often the Re-
publican papers through carelessness, scatter
these reports throughout the country.
Recently the New Orleans agent sent out
report that coloIed member of the Louisi-
ana Legislature had threatened that ten
thousand torches would be applied to the
city of New Orleans. A week after came the
denial from the member himself, that he had
not used or thought of using any such incen-
diary language. As very large proportion
of the population of New Orleans are color
ed, who would suffer in proportion to their
means as largely from a general confagration
as the whites, 1t may easily be credited that
no such insane threat was made. More re-
Gently the agent at Raleigh, n. c., in dis
patch, reported Mr.. j. W. Holden to have, at
public meeting, advised:
"The blacks to go to the polls armed to the
teeth. He said he spoke not as an individ-
ual, but as prophet of the doom OF the
Southern Democrats, and invoked the god of
turpentine to cover with flame the dwellings
of rebels"
Mr.. Holden, as soon as informed of this re-
port, sent the following dispatch, denying ex-
plcitly the use oil any such language:
"RALEIGH, n. c., Sept. Is, 1868.
To Hon. T. l.. Tullock, Secretary Republican
Congressional Committee:
The Associated Press dispatch in relation
to my speech to the Republican mass meet
ing here is false. made none OF the as
sertions attributed to me, nor did any one
else.

1t is full time that this thing should be
stopped and the General Agent at New York
can stop it very quickly whenever he is dis
posed to make an honest attempt to do so.-

LEARNING WISDOM FROM EXPERIENCE
The Newark Advertiser says:

The Newark Advertiser says:
We can assure the Republicans everywhere
that New Jersey does not propose to repeat
The folIy of 1864. She then had the doubt
fin honor of being one OF the few States that
voted for Mcclellan. The causes were obyi-
Gus. Our manufacturing interests were to a
large extent dependent on the Southern
trade. Perhaps no city in the Union had
closer business connections, before the war,
with the South than Newark. Wealthy
establishments, having Southern branches,
went down in ruin. it was natural that
these material interests should influence the
political course of our people. But since
then, years have passed away. Our business
men have sought and established an alliance
with the West and North. The Southern
trade is no longer essential to our prosperity.
we can live with it or without it; but our ac-
tive and energetic men are now convinced
that their true interests lie in the direction
of free and intelligent labor. They find
that cash paying black ireemen are as good
customers as white aristocrats who give their
notes.

If there is any wickedness that will stick to
President johnson to the day of his death, it
apparently will be the hatred Of the party
that was instrumental in making him Vice.
President At every opportunity, his sin Of
ingratitude, one of the lowest in the cata-
logue, stands out in bold relief. The Demo
cratic party have used him and discarded him
showing him in the New York convention
hardly passing respect-and yet he fawns
upon the hand that struck him, as does the
most suppliant spaniel that ever licked the
masters hand which had just welded the
whip about the timid creatures legs. The
correspondent of the Journal, writing from
Washington, tells the following of the Presi-
dents attempts TO force appointments against
the wishes of the districts in which the ap-
pointees were to act. He says:
Immediately after the adjournment of Con-
gress, Mr.. Rollins made all tie appointments,
selecting such men for the position as were
recommended by the Congressman Of the va
rious Internal Revenue Districts. Secretary
McCulloch, it appears. was willing to confirm
the majority of Mr.. Rollins appointees, but
the President interfered and advised him not
to do so unless half the number toere Demo
Gratis. Mr.. Rollins refused to enter into any
such arrangement, and then followed the
Presidents effort to force him.
