Cincinnati, in a public speech in the
following terms

am now in favor of accepting the peace

about rebels and copperheads. Let us
come down to the sober sense of the
matter, and look at the rugged ques-
ton. Why, say some, don't Cary come
out for Grant and ColfaX or Seymour
and Blair. My countrymcn, 1T is be-

from a man that represents 10000
workingmen in the State of New York,
and is an ardent Republican, and he
says to me "Cary, the workingmen
throughout this country are looking TO
you as their representative. We feel a
deeper interest in your election than
we do in the Presidential election. Have
nothing to do with the Presidential
questions, but stand upon the work
ingmen's platform, aud fight upon their
principles, and we will stand by you
throughout the Republic" Applause.

Democrats, with cordiality and unan-

which shall'ever be grateful, and for
which the workingmen of Hamilton

How the People are Robbed-Why
They should Vote n Change.

A few days ago a dispatch from WASH
ington announced that Colonel Selden.
the new Collector at Norfolk, Va, had
reported to Secretary McCulloch that
his investigation of the books and ae-
counts of his Radical predecessor dis
closed defalcation of TWO HUNDRED
AND FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Now here is revelation which should
put people who think to thinking. An
Internal Revenue Office in Virginia,
filed of course by a "loyap man and
one who could, without any gulping,
swallow the iron clad oath, becoming
vacant, the President appoints a sue
cessor; and that successor finds that q
Quarter of a Million of Dollars of the
Peoples money has been stolen. The
question naturally suggests itself: Hotc
many Quarter Million defdlcatiORs "a Ia.
ternal Rerenae Offices troHld be HneGrthed
if there ras to be a general remOrdl Of the
present iRcumbentsP Congress by its
Tenure of Office act has deprived the
President of the power of removal, and
practically made the Collectors of the
Peoples Revenue iITepressible. And 1t is
only when q Collector dies, which is
seldom-when he resigns, which is out
of the question-or when he happens to
be caught stealing and is sent to the
State Prison as in the case of Callicott
of Brooklyn, the late Collector at Rich
mond, &c, and successor is appointed,
that the people can ascertain the
robbery going on, as in this
Norfolk case. Under the Tenure
of Office law collectors are inde-
pendent of the President aad defy him.
Most of them are known to be constant
ly gambling in stocks or speculating in
the necessaries of life-buying up vast
amounts of grain and produce in the
West, and so, by unlawfully using the
peoples money, increasing the price of
the food that goes int the peoples
mouths. If their ventures are success
ful they put what they take out of the
people in this way into their pockets.
If they lose they put what they take out
of the people in that way under cover
and upen their defalcation accounts,
and the people will be able to know
the fact only when change takes
place. The poor deluded fools who risk
their money in lottery tickets never
watched more eagerly the return from
a drawing than many Internal Revenue
Collectors watch the report from every
Stock Beard to see how their gambling
operations turn out.

THE Chicago Times has a very lively
correspondent ON the Western plains,
who moves westwardly on the Pacltlc
Railroad from town to town, as one
mushroom town after another springs
into existence in the progress of the
line. He has an ingenious way of prais-
ing the good order and morals of each
town he visits, upon general principles,
and following this by catalogue of
crimes, outrages and lynchings just per-
petrated by its residents. At last ac-
counts he had get as far as Rawlins, q
place in Dakotah Territory just laid
out as a town, and which has already
a population of nine hundred, two large
dancing balls from Benton, about fifteen
drinking saloons and eating-houses or
tents" He first tells us that Ravlins
is ..as orderly as if it had a Metropoli-
tan notice. and then adds the informa-
t;on that might before last a man was
carroted and robbed'-that "last night
q similar outrage was committed on
another VICTIM" and that three men
have been notified TO quit the town, and
if not gone in twelve hours, they Will

of its existence. We presume that oy

crimes, and two score lynchings,

In 1917 the United States was en-
gagged in war with Mexico. JAMES X.
Polk, Democrat, was then President of
the United States. Armies and NUM-
tions of war had to be transported from
the United States thousands of miles to
the scene of conflict. Yet the whole ex-
pense during these four years was only
$50, ,O0O, 900, while daring the present
year, and the three or four years past,
the expenses have been about Sl20, ,000,-
900, so that it cost $4,000, 900 more for
the Radicals to run the War Depart
ment in single year in the time of
peace than for four years during @ for
eign war under Democratic admins
tration.

sultsn
BIZ Hon. Alerdnder II. .Sterens, is the title
of rdIuable ,rork just issued by the
National Publishing Co., PHILADELPHIA,
Pa.
Histories of the late civil war have
sprung up like mushrooms, and they
can now be numbered almost by hun
dreds, but all whe are desirous of arriv-
ing at correct understanding of the
causes, and a clear history of the events
of the late lamentable war, have felt
the want of reliable history of the
same from a Southern standpoint, by
some representative man of the South.
This want is about to be supplied by
ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS. Mr. STE.
PHENS was a most earnest protestant
against rebellion, and only succumbed
at the last moment, when his State, in
spite of his warning, committed the
great error.
The bare announcement that this dis
tinguished Statesman had determined
to write book, would, Ofitself, be suf-
ficient to kindle a lively and wide
spread interest in all sections of the
country; but when it is known that he
has chosen as his theme the one so fruit
full as the late American War, the alb
sorbing interest of the subject, together
with the evident and singular fitness OF
the author for its treatment, unite IN
awakening a curiosity entirely unpar-
alleled in the annals of American liter
ature.
II presents careful political analy-
sis of the past, separating real from ap
pareat causes of the late unhappy con.
tlict. and gives those interior lights and
shadows of the Great War, ONLY
KNOWN TO THOSE HIGH OFFICERS, who
watched the fiood-tideAOf Revolution
from its fountain springs, and which
were so accessible TO Mr.. STEPHENS
from his position as second officer of the
Confederacy.
To a public that has been surfeiteC
with apparently similar productions, II
presents a change of fare, both agree a.
bic and salutary, and an intellectual
treat of the highest order. The Great
American war has at last found a histo,
rian worthy of its importance, aud at
whose hands il receives that moderate
candid and impartial treatment which
truth and Justice so urgently demand

THE CAMPAIGN.
LINCOLN COUNTY.

CoALvILLE, LINCOLN Co., w. Va,
August "a, 1868. J
Editors of the Register:
The proceedings of the ratification
meeting at the Nine Mile school house,
August 22d, 1868, has been transmitted
to your valuable paper for publication,
l presume. For two weeks previous to
the 22d, notice had been given that a
meeting would be held at Nine Mile,
Sheridan township, for the purpose of
ratifying the nominations lately made
by the Democratic and Conservative
parties ut New York and Grafton. The
Hon. II. J. Samuels, of Cabell, was in
vited to address the meeting. Through
indisposition he was prevented from
doing so. The gathering was by far the
largest ever known in. the county.
Everybody was invited; those of the OPP
posite parry in particular. The Judge
falling to appear, at the urgent solicta-
tion of the people, without regard to
party, Robert NJ. Lusher, of Lincoln,
consented to speak upon the issues that
will be voted upon in the coming elec-
ton.
After the close of his remarks, a COM
mittee of seven was selected TO draft
resolutions, &c, six of whom, at the
last election, voted the Radical ticket;
the president and vice, have, until re-
Gently, acted with that party; they are
all honest men, well known to the
writer, who now declare that they have
been deceived by the leaders of the
Radical party, and that they now plain.
ly discover what those leaders have
labored SO assiduously to prevent them
from seeing, that it is the purpose Df
the Radical party to force negro sutfras 30,
upon the couHtry. The political hori-
zon here looks bright and encouraging
to the friehds of constitutional liberty.
With fair construction and halfway
honest application of the infamous reg
istration law, we will beat the negro
worshippers SO bad in Lincoln county
that you will not hear anything more of
the party after October and November.
l must say that am somewhat sorry
for the gallant Col. Witcher, opponent
of G.. Z. T. Moore, inasmuch as he is
a young man of extraordinary talent,
great promise, fine stumper; and also
in 1868, demonstrated great executive
ability in the command of 4 company
of rebel bushwhackers at the mouth of
Middle Fork, Mud river in what is
now Lincoln county. On this occasion
Witcher was with this company in COM
mand as Lieutenant, who encamped at
the above mentioned place one certain
night, about the time Woodrutf's troops
were at Barboursville, which think
was about the 18th of July, 1861. The
gallant Colonel was then for showing
no quarter to the Yankee invaders.
Oh! Sonny! Sonny! how thou art
changedi The peculiar scent or deli
cious odor of some dear sister of Africa,

first love, and forces thee to be Radi-
cal, much against thine own tender

HAMPSHIRE COUNTY.
Joint Discassion-D ID. 1Ohnsou, Il
a. Curskadon and n. q. Davis

RoMNEY, W. VA, September l, loG5.
Editor of the Register:
A Joint discussion was held here to-
day, in which Col. d. d. Johnson, T. r.
Carskadon, Senatorial ( (Ra8icdU District
Elector, and Henry G. Davis, our can
didate for the Senate, participated. Col.
Johnson made fine and effective speech
on national politics, after which, Mr..
CarskadSn addressed thu audience at
length in behalf of reconstruction and
negro equality, and in terms too extrava-
CANT to be believed. After two-thirds
of a speech, devoted to his coRgeniGl
theme, the dear negro, whom he fondled
and he dandled, and made love to usqae
ad naWsedm, he made a personal discus
sion with Mr.. Davis. The principal
charge he had to make upon our Sena-
torial candidate was, that Mr.. d. had
been a lobby member of the Legislature,
to obtain immunity from taxation for
the b. 4 0. Il. X. Co., and added to his
charge that ID. had secured the present
nomination of John T. Vance as a can
didate for the House of Delegates in
Mineral county, in the same railroad in
terest.
Mr.. Davis, in answer to Mr.. Carskadon,
triumphantly vindicated both himself
and Mr.. Vance from the charge preferred,
explaining most satisfactorily his course
on the railroad tax question as private
man-not legislator-regardlng the
interests of the counties along the line
of the road and Cf the State. Those
who heard Mr.. ID. on the subject were
entirely satisfied that his course had
been dictated by justice, Gberality and
the highest public spirit. Mr.. Davis
having accepted the challenge of MIR.
Carskadon for other meetings and dis
cussions, with both himself and Mr..
Dolly, Radical candidate for the Senate,
we have nothing to apprehend III Such
contest. Our candidate will more
than hold his own. Our cause is Hour
ishing; the hopes and enthusiasm OF
our people lively. We want the State
redeemed, while we are conhdent oil
Seymours success. We have good ac'
counts of the Hardy county barbecue
and of the effect it is producing In a
letter occasionally | will give you the
Interesting political news of this part
of West Virginia. Discussions will he
frequent, and l am satisfied that they
are in all cases to our advantage. The
people are honest and right-meaning,
and with the facts we have to present
before them, they are ever open to con
viction. CORRESPONDENT.

A PLEA FOR EGGS.

Be gentle to the new laid eggs,
For eggs are brittle things:
They cannot fly until they re Matched,
And have pair of wings.
III once you break the tender shell,
The wrong you can't redress;
The yoke and white would all run out,
And make fearful mess. -
lis but little while, at best,
That hens have power to lay,
Tomorrow, eggs may added be,
That were quite fresh to-day.
oh let the touch be light
That takes them from the keg;
There is no hand whose cunning skill
Can mend broken egg!
Aye, touch it with tender touch,
For, till the egg is "biled,"
Who knows but tbst, unwittingly,
1t may be smashed and spilled I"
The summer breeze that 'gainst 1t blows
Ought to be stilled and hushed;
For eggs, like youthful purity,
Are awful when they're squshed.
