IT Is INrIMATED that the Conservative ele
ment among the Massachusetts, Republicans
propose to put forward Charles Francis
Adams for United States Senator, in place
of Mr.. Sumner. We are not sure how much
importance the individuals have who rress
the movement, though after the letter and
proposed dinner to Fcssenden, it is evident
that Massachusetts, has quite n member of
Republicans whose convictions are not very
strong as to what Republican principles are.
We feel no doubt, however, that there is
entirely two much sense among the masses
of the party in that great State to think for
moment of losing the services of Charles
Sumner, and most surely not not in exchange
for those of Mr.. Adams, whose opinions on
questions of great national Importance have
been of late very uncertain, to say the least
One of his best efforts, and one of the
clearest and most conclusive arguments
made before the senate, at any time, was
Mr.. Summers speech on the Bill to admit
North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana,
Georgia and Alabama, to representation. Ii
is cogent and comprehensive on the general
question Of suffrage and dismisses in shame
the false prelcnce, that ''because State
may regulate the elective franchise therefore
1t may destroy the franchise. Grandly he
asserts that "uiere can be no STATE Rights
against Human Fights.

TIE INsINoERlTy Of the Democratic oppo-
sition to Negro Suffrage is not only evil
denced by the silence of the New York plat
form on the subject, but by the unconccalcd
satisfaction with which Northern journals
of the party hail any accession of Southern
negroes TO the Democratic ranks.
The Gazette of this morning publishes
the following extract from the Macon
Georgia. Telegraph :
Hundreds of colored voters We're in the
Seymour and Blair procession, in Macon,
last Wednesday night, and thousands more
cheered it on with right good will The
talk about ''conflict of races" is all stuff.
The Democrats in this canvass are going to
illustrate not conflict but cooperation OF
races. We mean that somewhere between
four-fitth and nine-tenths of the Georgia ne
groes shall vote with us, and by our side n
this election; and we mean in this to do not
the slightest violence TO the negro's inclina-
ton. lie shall vote as he chooses, and he
shall vote for his own best interests and
happiness. We notify all carpet baggers
and Adventures at home and abroad that
we intend TO try conclusions with them on
this point, and help themselves il they can.
The vote Of Georgia this fall shall be nearer
unit than it was ever before. the RAIDS
shall get enough of manhood suffrage in
Georgia to satisfy them for four years at
least.
s.To this breaking Of what ii deems light
through clouds it has hitherto thought alto
gether dark, it thus ccstatically responds ~
Go it, Gcergiahs. Fight the devil with
fire. Break his head with the cudgel made
by himself, if you can. You would be play
ing into the hands of Satan if you refused 10
do 50. Defeat the Radcal-get from under
the heel Of the despots, and then you can
unite your labor to ours to reduce the taxes;
and help Seymour and Blair make green
backs equal to gold

The STATEMENT of the public debt on the
3ist of July will show an increase of several
millions of dollars since the last statement
issued on the 3ist of May. On the LIST of
July about Sas,OOo, 900 in coin to pay the
semi-annal interest on the 5-2Os and bonds
Of 1881, and over $1,000, 900 in coin to pay
the principal and interest on the bonds of
ls4s, was taken from the vaults ofthe Urea
-sury, hence the amount of coin on hand is
much less.
The receipts from internal revenue We're
heavy during the months of May and June,
caused by the payment ofthe income tax, but
are much less this month, while the custom
receipts were about the same us usual On
the 3Ist of May the debt was -, $40. 245, $780,
"A, and it is thought when all returns are in
for the present month, the increase will not
exceed five or six millions of dollars.

do. They take the position that the en-
franchisement of the negro degrades the
white man. M
Tho elevation of the negro docs not de-
grade the white man. And tell you, col.
ored people, II tho North says you have q
right to vote in the South, and admit you to
the rights Of citizens, you have the right 10
demand thnt they admit you 10 the same
rights and privileges In the North. don't
admit that the Southern people are inferior
TO any race on the earth. We are conquer
ed, and the North has put harsh measures
upon us, but let us accept them, and get the
State under the control of the people Of the
State. The Fourteenth Article will become
a part of the Constitution, whether Georgia
adopt 1t or not.-North and South Carolina
and Florida will soon adopt it, and whether
Georgia adopts II or not, IT she returns to
the Union she will have to accept ii.
But the Democracy thinks If Seymour Is
elected these Reconstruction measures VIII
be set aside. We'll, let us see. Suppose
they elect Seymour, together with majority
in the House of Representatives; they can't
change the Senate for four years to come.
Then what will they do? viii they inaug-
urate a revolution with Seymour ut the head
aud take possession of the Government, and
turn the Senate out? If SO, why has not
AMY johnson, as COminunucr-ih-Nnici VI
the Army and Navy, done this heretofore !?
| tell you the people of the North will stand
by the Government, and no matter what
they tell you about fighting for your rights
in opposition TO the Government, they will
not do II when the test comes. We were de-
ceived by that cry in 1861. tell you If
they can't get anybody else ofight y. li,they
will fight you with the paupers of Europe
and the negroes.
The negro is dangerous political element
in this country, because they are abused,
driven to it. All of this is the result of the
teachings of such men as Hill, Toombs and
Cobb. Let them stop their abusive haran-
CUES, and my word for it, the military will

The press, also, has been great power In
engendering strife in Georgia. 1t has en-
deavored to arouse all the bad passions of
the people in these trying times Let us
cease this strife, accept the conditions i'm
posed upon lis with the best grace possible,
and restore the people and the State again
to peace and prosperity, Our people want
peace, and feel confident that majority
of them are satisfied that IL the acceptance
of the Reconstruction measures would re-
store peace, they would say, accept them.

SOME bA ULSB UR Y ERRORS COR
RECJ,EI

The DetdaDaredn is cultiyating its capa-
city for lying, and succeeds on Saturday,
wonderfully. 1t charges that Congress has
failed to bring about Union, when in fact
all the rebellions States but three, are fully
restored to representation in Congress, al
though Messrs. Bayard, salisbury, and
Nicholson repeatedly voted not to let them
in.
II iniimatcs that 'three years OF peace
have cost about as much as four years of
war, which is utterly untrue, the expense
OF administering the government, exclusive
at bounties and pensions left ON our hands
~ the Democratic war, being actually as
little al gold rates, as the amount expended
under buchanan, eight years ago, when the
population and the necessity for outlay were
far less
1t charges 'that the prospects of solid
Union are to-day no better than they were
when Lee gave up his sword at Appomat-
tox, when in fact the Union is solid, Re
construction complete except the three States
noted, the civil law prevailing throughout
the South, and a large majority of the peo-
pie there perfectly satisfied. All this has
been accomplished in spite Of the Dola-
a0aredn and its friends. who have opposed
Reconstruction, step by step, and have never
once, since Congress commenced the work
failed TO vote against it, when opportunity
offered
1t charges that ''thc legislative chamber,
of the Southern States are filled with ignor
ant negroes, statement without fuunda
lion in TACT, there being not II single Lcgisla
ture In the South, except one, where co.oret
members are even majority, while in most
they are not more than one-fourth of thu
body. And this is Notwithstanding the fac
that in several States, the colorcd citizen,
arc in large majority.
1t has the further impudcnce 10 assert tha
''the Southern people are under wors,
tyranny than ever disgraced Austria or Pc
land, when in fact there is no iyrann,
whatever. Even the worst OF the rebels
guilty Of the nations blood, have sulIere,
little or nothing in person or estate. Urea
son has never been made odious, nor traitor
punished. Justice has obtained her due onl
in one instance, the restoration Of loya
colored men to their voting right. "Tyr
amy exists nowhere in the South, excep
where rebel outlaws burn, steal, and murder
in defiance of the just and humane laws @
the new State governments.
All the facts are in favor of Congress
and Reconstruction. Law, Order, Justice
Economy, and Peace, defend them success
fully, and as their representatives before tn
people, will equally defend those heroes an
statesmen, GRANT and CoLPAx.
