State Electlons,
The following are the State elections in The
order III which They occur:

ROBERT TooMBs, who has not yet "caIled
he roll of slaves on Bunker Hill, i" recent Y
said in a speech a Atlsnla Ga:
These so.called Governors and Lpgtsla
ures which have been eStabii>hrd in our
midst shall at 0nre be naadp mtrant The conyen-
tor at Veoo York appointed Frank Ban. es3e
ctatty IT, OstSt hem.'
In the same Strain, the following from the
Mobile Tribune Is plain enough:
'FrIend>-iellow citizens of Mohilp-com
radcs OF the Queen Cry OF the Gulf! Let II,
make one more effort IN behalf OF our right ;
ana our liberties. II are successful in The
approaching contest a0e shall regain ali ,oe lost in
the Lost Cause"
And this from the Charleston Mercu,.y is
notn plain and terribly significant:
Congressional reconstruction, Ms we an
llrlpate cd from the first that it would be, is a
failure. To 20 on further with it, will only
involve danger and increase eXasprralinn

Irish Rennhlioans.

The Irish in the City of Rockford and
vicinity, have organized an efficient Grant
and Colfax club. The Irish who complain
of oppression and the abridgement of
peoples rights in the old country, show
their consistency by joining the party of
freedom in this country One of the dis
tinguishihg characteristics or the Republi-
can party always has been, to invest those
of every nationality with freedom and
equal rights 1t has always been mar
vel, why those who have had their Just
rights withheld from them in the land of
their nativity on the other side of the
Atlantic, should on coming to this coun-
try espouse the side Of slavery. Yet such
has been the course pursued by great
majority Of some nationalities The Re
publican clubs which within the past
month have been organized among the
Irish citizens, indicate "a right apprecia-
ton OF the true intent ofour American in
stitutions. If the deprivation ofthe natural
rights or the people, is matter OF just
complaint in Ireland, why should it not
be in this county? Why complain of
British oppression across the sea, and then
join the ranks Of the oppressors of any
race or color on this American soil? 1t is
true that slavery in this country has been
abolished, but no thanks to the Democrat
ic party for any intentional aid in its alb
clifton 1t is also true that the spirit of
slavery in this country is not radically
changed, it is only subdued by compul.
sion; it has in numberless instances since
the nomination of Seymour and Blair
manifested hopes of regaining its lost
power. Chattelized slavery, has always
been an element in the Democratic party
whatever Of its spirit remains, is still in
the same party.

JOHNSON NOT TOTALLY DEPRAvED.-
President johnson has recently manifest
cd some signs Of returning reason. He has
recognized the new State governments Of
the South, by responding to the demands
made upon him by their civil authorities
for assistance,to quell the riotous and muir
derous proceedings Of the ex-rebels In
Louisiana the Ku Klux, have become so
violent in their conduct toward the LOYAL
whites and the free dmel, that life and
property are insecure. The State anthor-
tiles deriving their power from the peo-
pie in pursuance of the reconstruction act
OF Congress, appealed to the President for
troops, and the President has answered
their petition; thus fully recognizing them
legally constituted officers Here there
fore the President, comes in conflict with
the Democratic party. Blair having put
forth the following declaration:
There is but oae Gag to restore the
Government and the Constitution, aud
that is for the President elect to declare
the Reconstruction acts null and void,
compel the army to undo its usurpations
AT the South dtsper~e the C3pet-bag Sttt6

What Democrats Propose to do.

This IS the first time in the history of
this country, that political party has had
in nomination man for a national office,
who boldly ayows himself in favor of VIC
Iating the laws of the United States.
Frank p Blair the candidate for Vice
President, on the Both of June last in re-
ply to an inquiry as to the use ofhis name
before the National Democratic Conven
tion made declaration ofhis principles,
and among other things declared as fol-
lows

questionably viii be so recognized by the

Democratic party by its unanimous sup

Judicial Departments, by declaring the

Democratic party therefore places itself
before the country with the avowcd inten.

event ofsucceeding to power It's declared

not by legal and peaceable means. Re
member the creed Of Blair is, that the

The old argument was revived by Judge
Doolittle, on Monday evening, that the grant.
ing OF the negro equal rights with white men,
must OF necessity result in social equality.
All past history in this country contradict
any such theory. In several OF the New En-
gland States the negro has always been al,
lowed the right of suffrage, and an equality
OF rights before the law, in the courts Ana
who dare be so reckless to assert that these
rights enjoyed by the negro, have tended TO
social equality between the white and colored
races In our own State the colored men
have now the elective franchise, and the same
rights before the law, in the Courts, as white
men has this in any way tended to promote
social equality between the two races, IN Wis
consin? That man, who, in the light of his
tory IN this country, attempts to maintain
that an equality OF legal rights conceded to
colored men, results in SOCIAL equality, inter
marriage, &C., must be either fool or a
knave.

Addressed to the Irish,

The irish Republic published in the
city Of New York, addresses some plain
language to its countrymen. It is possible
the sentiments uttered by the Irish Repub-
tjc may apply to the condition of things
in other portions Of the country.
"We should have been the most popular
and the wealthiest foreigners in the United
States. Why are we neither one nor the
other? Simply because we arrayed ourselves
politically against the intelligent people
OF the nation, and fought them with more
than partisan tierceness. We have assem-
bled in mobs and assaulted men for differ-
ing from us in opinion. We have driven
men born in the land from the polls We
have howled for liberty in ireland, and
helped to enslave men IN America. In
fact, our race has been almost unit for
Conservatism under the name of Democ-
racy, and its degrading principles and
denounced and abused Wings and Repub-
leans. 1t cannot be denied, the wealth
and commerce of the nation is chiefly in
Republican hands to-day; that nine -tenths
OF our people earn their bread from Re
publican men, all the while denouncing
their employers as black Republicans,
Radicals, carpet baggers, etc Human ma
ture is much alike, and 1t is not to be ex-
pected that men will employ their enemi S
when they can get others who believe as
they themselves believe, to do the same
work. The consequences are that our PEG
| pie are driven into the sewers and rail
road when they might be in comparatively
lucrative employment The hot Irishman
''damns" his Republican 'boss,' and out
he goes; and the cautions German takes
his place, minds his business and gets
rich"

Demncratio Negroes.

The Democracy at the South are boast
ing of the conversion of large number
Of negroes to their ranks No doubt con-
siderable many negroes have been enticed
to join the party. Democratic meetings
have lately been held in Georgia and
several other States where negro orators
occupied the platform with white speak
ers. 1t has often before been noticed, that
whenever a negro becomes Democrat
he instantly ceases to have any more I'M
pleasant odors about him, but his smell
really becomes delicious, to the nasal
organs of the Democracy.
SPIRIT AND TEMPER OF THE SOUTH
The southern wing of the Democrat ic
party, is boiling over with defiance of the
Republicans, and fully intent on revo-
luton, provided the Democratic nominees
for President and Vice President are sue
cessful The temper of the Southern
leaders is illustrated by the speech of
John P. Weems before the Democratic
State Convention of Georgia few days
ago. Among other things he denounce d
the fourteenth amendment and asked why
the radicals proposed it. He answered
his own question in these words:
Principally for the purpose OF keeping
out of ONCE such noble gentlemen as Howell
Cobb, A. Fl Stephens, Robert looms, B. II.
Hill, John c. Breckenridge and Jefferson
Davis. They knew that It men like these
should ever get back TO Washington, the mis-
crean's who are now holding power would
shrink away aoashed at their pure presence
As Mr.. Weems named each of the
patriots" in the above list the report sa Us
there was a storm of cheers; but acAcn h
mentioned deInGpee of Je7arsoa Daeas the
hall at once bscanps TIE Seeney of a65tct

PRESENT CONDITION OF KANSAS CRoPs.-In
this country and vicinity crops are generally
good. The yield of wheat is probably the
best ever harvested here. II is estimated ii
one third better than last year and of good
quality.
Corn an average crop, though in some
places injured by drOuth; but more having
been planted, the increase in the aggregaf g
yield This year will probably overcome a
possible falling off from last years average
Oats very good crop, and will probable
average one forth greater than las, year.
Barley average crop.
Hay very good
Apples-better yield than ever before; good
uality.
Early potatoes are of excellent quality.
and good average yield. Later varieties are
| IN some danger of suffering from the late
drought, but 1t is hoped that the recent rain
will greatly relieve them and promote good
yield.
