The radical papers are continually harp.
ing that Seymour aud Blair are weak lnen.
If they really think so, why are they so
busy foregoing their lies against them, and
in some instances swearing to them. Do
they think it necessary to lose their souls

cause the wool will always purchase more cloth than
the money which the wool will sell for. They save
the profits made by the commission merchant and

The New York Journoi Of Commerce.,
highly temperate and able paper, holds the
following opinions OH the subject of negro
suffrage:
"No law in creation can fix negro suffrage
into rcrmancncy. 1t is but an experiment.

mankind up to this date it will remain ncor-
poratcd in the constitutions of the Southern

hindeis its progress. No law Of Congress, no
Constitution Of any State. no amendment to
the Constitution of the Cntcd States, is
unrcpeal ,blc. Congress has already shown to
mankind with what facility the most sacred
charters, the most solemn compacts, may be
rent to pieces, when party interests require it
at some time not far distant, perhaps, the
Conservatives may have the supreme power
as the Radicals now have it. 1t will be their
duty to revise and correct errors OF Radical
Legislation. One of the first questions that
will come before them will be that of the
repeal Of all negro suffrage cnactments and
provisos. Unqualified negro suffrage will
then have been tried upon its merits, on the
large scale. IF, on the whole, it is good
thing, it will not be molcstcd. But if it is q
clearly apparent evil and nuisance, nothing
can save it from being sponged out of cxis

How Peck Of Corn Meal is Taxed.

The GaAipolis Dispatch, in answer to the
charge that because man is poor he cannot
be taxed, thus shows how even peck of meal
purchased by poor man to aid in feeding his
family ef fittlc children, is taxed, to aid in
paying the interest on the untaxcd bonds.
Says the Dispatch:
'.Thc corn from which that beck of meal
was made was raised on taxed land, plowcd by
a taxed plow, drawn by taxed horses, hitched
with taxed gears. 1t was hoed with a taxed
hoe, cultivated with taxed implements, gather
ed with taxed wagon, drawn with taxed
horses, thrown into taxed crib, shcllcd on n
taxed machine, measured in a taxed measure,
taken in taxed sack aud ground on a taxed
mill, sieycd with taxed sieve, mixed in a
taxed pan, stirred with 4 taxed spoon, salted
with taxed salt, put into a taxed bake pan,
baked in a taxed stove, laid out on taxed plate
cut with taxed knife. aud lastly eaten by
pretty heavily taxed man.
'lf it were not for the taxes you could buy
bushel Of meal for what that peck cost you!
Besides, it is not Oh that alone that you arc
taxed, but upon everything you have to buy
\ pound of sugar costs only ) or cents, but
you have to pay from 1G to 20 A pound of
coffee only costs 10 cents but you have to pay
30, and if it costs you three hundred dollars

say one half of this is tax. Now, iset any
wonder that times are hard and that you find
it difficult to live?"

Mn. Eplron: This has been glorious day
for the Democracy of this District. Early
morn came aud with it the drizzling rain
peculiar to our Fall. This did not however,

yeomanry of the District, accompanied BY
their wives, daughters, sisters and loves The
harder it raincd the more determined did
they appear to waive triumphantly the bcauti-
ful banners Of Democracy.
at nine O'Clock procession of at least one
thousand men was formed at the Depot: and
divided iuto five Divisions; each Division was
h.>~ru by wagon handsomely DECORATED
with all sorts of fcstooncry of roses and ever
greens, and drawn by six mules or horses
more handsomely caparisoncd, ridden postill-
ion by Democrat negroes, and each wagon
filled. with tho lovclicst of fair maidcns bearing
beautiful banners. The whole procession was
headed by magnificent floral car, carrying Il
band of musicians from Charleston, whose
exquisite airs husled for the moment all op-
position to our cause.
La that precision were seventy eight color
cd Democrats, and near one hundred boys,
the latter bearing beautiful banner on whose
folds wero inscribed-"wc expect to nc men ("
On arriving at the stand the head of the
column halted; the Marshall formed close

CONS were driven to the seats and cnpticd of
their precious loads, and the closed Divisions
parted and marched up to the front of the
stand. The mancouyering and tramp Of those
men showed they had not forgotten the lessons
offdays not long since gone hy.
The staaa was quite as elegantly ornamcn-
ted with 4estoonery as the wagons. and filed
with more than thirty chairs. Judge Glover
presided and after few appropriate remarks
introduced Judge Aldrich, who was followed
by Col. Haskeiq and he in turn by the can
