Prince Napoleou's Tour.


Paris June 81 correspondence Of London Times.l
Prince Napoleon In this, his second, tour through
Europe. Is perpextng every one, and even some OF
the government papers are anxious to strip OF all
political importance. On an article In La France on
this subject the Journal dc Parts has some very
just observations, thus y It desires that
Prince Napoleon should travel abroad just as the
Prince OF Wales the Prince Royal of Prussia would
do, without any more consequence to the policy Of
the French government. Now this is mere Utopia,
so long as all the power and all the responsibility
rests in the hands OF one man who s the head of his
family, as he Is head Of the State, and who has
supreme command over the conduct Of his family
as In the affairs OF the country: Whatever
we may say or do, when Prince Napoleon goes
abroad he does 80 IN the character of the first
prince Of the blood Of reigning family whose head
Is the only responsible depository OF the public
powers. In order that 1t should be otherwise and
that the Emper0r's cousin should be COMPOUNDED in
the crowd OF ordinary tourists system Of govern
ment must be completely changed, and some sort Of
responsibility be substituted for that which the EN-
peror has taken entirely upon himself; and this Is
precisely what La France does not want. But this
consequence is forced, and II 1t be not the most en-
baassng, at least it il not the least curious OF all
those which follow from personal government.

Good for Gen. williams. 5.


AINjor General A. 8. Williams, of
Michigan, has written a letter, publish
ed in the #Dstroit Tribune, advocating
the election Of Grant and Colfax. Cen
eral williams was in 1866 Democratic
candidate for Governor of Michigan
and is now United States Minister to
San Salvador.
General williams comman led the
First Division. Twentieth Corps. from
the time Sherman moved on Bragg at
Dalton until the capture of Atlanta, al
ter which he led the Corps down TO the
sea and up through the Carohnas to
Goldsboro. At the battle of Gettysburg
he commanded the Twelfth Corps dur
ing part Of the engagement. At Antie-
tam he commanded a Division, and for
some time held a similar command IN
der Banks and Pope in the army of
Northern Virginia. He deservedIy
bore che reputation Of being one Of the
.stubbornest fighters and best Division
and Corps commanders in the army.
His command was never whipped and
never lost gun. A far more capable
and experienced soldier than Blair he
is altogether too brave and patriotic to
vote for Copperhead like Seymour.

GEN. ToM. EWING, in his speech al
GAINESVILLE, the 25th ult., speaking OF
different plans of reconstruction, said
''The other plan is that of Thad. Ste
vens that the States were out of the I'm
ion by their ordinances of Secession.
If this is so, they had a right TO seeede.H
Ewing here assumes that they had q
right to seeede, because they did seeedei
as though it were impossible for them
to do that which they had no right to
do. The history of the war shows that
the rebels did a great many things they
had no shadow Of right to do. To as
sumo that they had right to do a GER
tain act Of rebellion because they actu-
ally did it, is to justify Everything the
rebels dtd-in other words it is non
sense.

The Republican party has always
been the best friend of the laboring
man. 1t passed the homestead act Civ
ing land to the landIess and free homes
20 the homeless in the great domain OF
the West. It has stricken the fetters
from four millions Of laboring men who
were being robbed of their wages by
selfish aristocrats. 1t took Abraham
Lincoln, the rail splitter, from his prai-
rie home and made him President. It
took Grant the tanner from a leather
store in Galena and made him General
of the army and will elect him also to
the highest place among the people.
Nor is the Republican party less
mindful of the labOrer in dispensing its
humber gifts. Ofour county nominees
Capt. Doty is a wagon-maker William
Brown is a stone-cutter; Messrs Fuller
and Cox are farmers and Capt. Banker
is a carpenter. Thus five out of the six
candidates are working men in the usu-
al acceptatiOn of that term. Four out
of the six were soldiers in the Union
army. Capt. Doty who leads the ticket
served most Of the time as private and
color bearer, and now carries in his
body a bullet of the enemy. or the Eve
candidates for State officers three are
soldiers Capt. Norris has given limb
for his country. III ~

men. 1 w @ta

discaurares the impulse for self Inn

makes loss OF citizenship the penalty

Assuming that students whose pa
rents are living could always vote
where they reside, it is safe to say that
TO very large proportion of those at
tending the higher schools, the expen-
ses and loss Of time incident to attend
ing the elections would be almost
equivalent to an absolute prohibition
to vote. This would apply with espe-
cial force to those who are frightened
in means, and whom this law would
rob Of the franchise simply because
they are poor. But to rich and poor
alike, the frequent and in many eases
prOtEacted absence caused by the elee-
tions would be an interruption Of study
and a.serious annoyance, which very
many woald prefer to forego even at
che expense Of losing their votes.
Tt may be set down as a general prin-
cipal which should govern all IegisIa-
ton in regard to suffrage, that the law
should impose norestrietions upon vot-
ing not absolutely necessary to pre-
serve the purity Of the ballot box.
Anything beyond this is an oppressive
and wanton invasion Of the rights Of
the voter. The conditions of time and
place Of residence are prescribed by the
law solely to prevent fraud, and when
ever they are converted into a hind
rance or restraint upon voting they are
wholly changed from their true aud
original design. It makes but little
practical difference in the eye of the
law where the student casts his ballot,
only provided he has the qualifications
Of an electOr, and votes where be has
In good faith complied with the condi-
tiOns ofresidence. A law which under
such circumstances ereates,as this does,
further conditions of suffrage, and
practically fOrbids him to vote, is un-
necessary, oppressive and Odious.

''IF the 14th amendment is a part Of
the Constitution, as the Radicals have
decided, 2 says Blair, the Democratic
candidate for Vice President in his late
speech at Indianapolis. This ''if'' be-
trays once more Blair's revolutionary,
flibustering scheme for restoring sIav-
cry upon the ruins of the reconstructed
governments. The amendment was
ratified by those governments. Hence,
Blair speaks of its ratification with an
''if." Should those governments be
overthrown, as Blair intends, the
amendment is to be set aside as inval-
id. That is the Democratic scheme,
But Blair will learn pretty soon that the
peOpla regard this amendment as a part
of the Constitution, without any ifs, or
ands, or butts. It has been. recognized
as valid organic law by every depart
ment of the government, and this recog-
milton carries with it that of the Legality
of the State governments by which it
was ratified. There are no offs" about
it. The amendment is a part of the
Constitution, and the people have no
stomach for BIair's flibusteringi scheme
to overthrow it. as

IF you do not vote a ticket printed
with black ink on plain white news
printing paper. without any dezica or
mark of any description to distinguish
one ticket from another, your vote is
illegal. OF course the judges of cleo
tions (who may be Demoerats) are to
determine whether the ink is black, F"
whether the paper is plain white, -
whether it is news printing paper, .
and whether it has on it ANY device
or mark" or not. OF course it is
made unlawful BY this act to place the
american flag at the head of a ticket,
that being one of the devices that
might distinguish Union ticket from
a Democratic one. We have pever
yet heard any good reason for this law.
The Democratic Legislature probably
passed it to enable Democrats who are
ashamed to vote a Coppethead ticket
to vote one which bears the outward
appearance of responsibility. In this
county last fall the Republican tickets
were printed on white paper with blue
ink and the Stars and Stripes at the
top, while the Democratic tickets were
of as many coIors, sizes and shapes as
the leaves of autumn. Not knowing
what ours would be they wanted to be
sure to have some at least like ours for
the benefit of the class Of Democrats
We have named.

A business gentleman who has been
looking over the old quotations informs
us that the price Of sugars in 1867 was
as high as it is now. Considering that
both gold and currency have largely
dep1eciated since that time the price
then was relatively much higher than
it is now, and in the blissful reign Of
James Buchanan, when there was nc
Democratic war to pay Tor, The poor
mans sugar actually cost him more in
speeie than it does now in currency.

some of our Democratic friends are
very much distressed because Gen.
Beatty don't own any Government
bonds or bank stock. Suppose he did
own them. We are notawar that the
possession Of government securities or
other legitimate property ought to dis
qualify any man to hold Office. If
such were the case, Pendleton, Hen
bricks, Belmont, and various other
great lights Of the Democracy would
be in bad way. Hendricks, the Dem
oeratic candidate for Governor Of In
diana, is one Of the most extensive
owners of bank Stock in that State,
while Pendleton not only owns a large
amount Of national bank stock, but
refused to pay tages on It, Perhaps
some of the gentlemen who are so
nervous about Gen. Beatty can tell US
whether he ever refused to pay taxes
on bank stock, and also how it was
that August Belmont and other Dem
ocratie money kings succeeded in kill
ing off Young Greenbacks, of Cinoin-
natl, and nominating Old Goldbaek,
of Utica for the Presidency.
