WORKING NATIONS RULE.-The Hon
Mr.. Coburn of Indiana, nobly uttered
some noble truths when discussing in
Congress the bill for the removal of all
political disabilities from Southern gen.
tlemen:
"The true representative of the
South" said Mr.. Coburn, sis the la
boring man, the man of vigor, the man
of nerve, the man of business, the
man of enterprise, the self-reliant, in
dependant, active, hardworking Amer
lean; not the impotent, conceited child
of slavery, too proud to work, too feeble
to shift for himself, just the mah to
banker after an official position. The
man who works must rule. Labor
hardens his muscle, steadies his nerves
clears his brain, gives him confidence,
patience, activity, and ingenuity. Re.
sponsibility makes robust his intellect
and makes manly his character. The
working nations rule the world; SC
the workers of people rule it, and
ought to-"

saviors of the Republic.

The character ofthe Democratic party
can be best learned by observing the
character and antecedents of the men
the party have chosen to represent them.
The perSonel of the Democratic Ma
tional Convention is therefore subject
of curious speculation and instructive
contemplation. Here are some of the
representative men OF the Democratic
party, or as the New York World has
it, THE men upon 'chOm the Republic relies
for safety.
| Gen N. B. Forrest who, before the
Shareholders rebellion, was a wholesale
and retail dealer in men, women and
children, being senior member of the
firm OF Forrest, Jones 81 Co., whose
place of business was 80 Adams street,
Memphis, Tenn. Having found that
raising mulattoes for the market was a
profitable business, Forrest was the
first to join the grand insurrection to
make slavery perpetual During the
progress of the rebellion he fought
with all the bravery of Choctsw Chief,
and at Fort Pillow masacred and mu-
tilated colored prisoners in the most
chivalrous and courageous manner
Forrest has been lifelong Democrat,
but has never been in better standing
than since he showed bis antipathy to
negroes by cutting their throats at Fort
/ Pillow
Gen. Wade Hampton, who is to. day
the leading South Carolina secessionist,
an unrepentant rebel and as unmitiga-
ted traitor as ever fought against his
countrys flag When whipped by Gen.
Sherman he refused to surrender when
the. forces he commanded were COM
PEELED to surrender, and having defed
the military arm of the Government
then, has been defying the civil Gov
ernment ever since. he has lately been
spouting treason at Lees College, when
he was invited to instruct the young
students concerning their duties in life.
Hampton has already been appointed
on important Committees, and is quite.
q pet with the Democracy.
But we must refer the reader to that
high Democratic authority, the N. Y.
World, which under the head of Their
Record Of Services to the Nation, gives
sketches of long list of confederate
brigadiers, colonies, congressman, etc,
who are now engaged in saving the ma
ton, in reforming abuses, and 10 ma
king a President for us at New York.
There are the rebel generals Gordon,
and Vance and Hoke and Ransom and
Cox and Clingham and civil service
traitors like Rhett and Perry Aldrich,
These with Valandigham and Edison
B. Olds and Voorhees, and Burr are the
men who are to save the Republic.
From such saviors good lord deliver
us - Columbus Journal. - %

6JThe wooly-headed shin-bone par
ty has new apostle in the person Of
Senator Doolittle, who the other night
appeared before the people ofTrenton,
sin plain aud simple language Ito
quote his ownra ratherremarkable words),
and formally impeached the Congress
of the United States at the bar of the
State of New jersey, We shall not
pretend to follow the Senator's argu-
ment, which was neither very close nor
very new; but. its principal points may
be briefly stated as follows: l. The ne
gro is not a white man. 2. The jaw,
chest, arms, and bones Of the negro are
different from those of Mr.. DoOlittle.
8. A man whose jaw, chest, DC, differ
from those of Mr.. DooIittle is not fit to
vote. 4. If the negro acquires the
right of suffrage, the next generation
of American born citizens will be COM
posed entirely of mulattoes.. To this
reasoning Mr.. Doolittle adds some re-
marks which are so fine that we are
tempted to quote them in full. He
thinks that the negro ought to have
stayed in Africa (an opinion in which
the poor victims of the slave-traders no
doubt fully concurred), because ''the
climate is his ''Datural home," and de-
clares that the Almighty "has given
the temperate zone tot the "temperatc man."
Good heavens Does he want to ban
ish President johnson and the whole
Democratic partyi But, seriously, we
have no patience with man who does
not know the difference between poll
tics and physiology. We understand
how there may be an honest diversity
of opinion respecting universal suffrage;
but a party which has no better basis
than the color of a mans skin or the
shape of his nose is too contemplate to
be argued with. Mr.. DoOlittle is 3
striking example of how easy it is to
run down hill. He began as the par
tisan of a renegade President, and he
has got down already to the level OF Mr..
Brooks and The Erprsss IN. 7. Tribune.

DREAMS.
BY FREDERICK r.. MARvrN.

BY FREDERICK X. MARVIN.
To sleep and manufacture dreams.
From out the web Of day;
TO glorify the hours Of night,
Il more than childbood's play.
'Tis more than sound philosophy
To say the very least
To spread from fragments of the day
An evenings gorgeous feast.
To build an Indian palace high
From mud-huts of the day,
To glitter through the starry night,
And melt at morn away.
Then give me for the woes o fearth
The sOlace of dream
Give me, If not life's nobler joys,
At least the ones that seem.
Oh. give me, when the darkness falls,
The pure and holy light,
The silver music Of dream
Which sanctities the night.
'Tis well to build your castles high,
En- though they tumble fast
They leave more room for other ones,
Which soon are with the past.
! would not miss my evening dreams
Before the old log-fre,
For all the maids in Cashamere,
For all the wealth Of Tyre.
The only hours really live
Are those | spend in sleep;
The strangest isncies, weird and wild,
To double being leap.
love to sleep, but more to dream
The silent hour away,
Until the sombre pail of night
Is streaked with light Of day.
