pooIittle VS.. Radicals.

The chief sin of Radicalism as charged
in the Welday Hall speech, was Negro
Suffrage. Against this as the great
|apostacy from Doolittle and Lincoln
Republicanism the Senator poured out
the vials of his wrath. But mid his
heat and hard strokes he forgot some
things-some radical things, of radical
interest TO democratic stumpers before
ignorant people always to forget. And
here main truths were ignored.
First--Radicals are m&srepresented.-
They ask equal Suffrage for all freemen
for all citizens of the Z. s. OF a. And ii
intelligence be wanting, let the with
holding Of suffrage fall alike upon all
Radicals want to enlighten all, Demo-
Gratis stand in the way.
. Second-he forgot to tell his new
friends that all the original States ofthe
Union, but loyal! South Carolina, the
model democratic State, did allow all
Ifreenlen without distinction OF color to
vote, and that this radicalism long re-
mained, till slavery demanded its re-
peal.
Third-He forgot to tell his friends,
who seem to forget every fact vital to a
political issue, that under the old radi-
calism of Tennessee Gen. Jackson was
by the counterpoising votes of colored
men once sent TO Congress. Doolittle
once knew that fact, now among forgot
ten things with modern Democracy.
Fourth-He forgot to tell that the only
reason why the Fathers of the Revolu-
ton withheld vote from any colored
man was because he was a slave, and
that now that reason has no application
Radicals don't ask votes for slaves.
F1fth-He forgot to tell that the radi
calism of the Radicals is laid deep in the
of the American Revolution,
and that the Radicals are only building
1pon the Old Declardtion-"al men
born free and equal, and have equal
,ights-all laws derive their binding
orce from consent of the governed-tax-
ltion without representation is a ty-
amy"
Sixth-He forgot to tell that Mr. Lin
,oln, his model anti-rddicdi was in favor
IT Negro suffrage and recommended it
n Louisiana reconstruction.
Seventh-It may be supposed he was
,lad to forget that Andrew his patron
'nce recommended this same Lincoln
,olicy. Radicalism is older than Mr..
)oolittle-But the Senator forgets.
A RADICAL.

Grant on the True Foundation of Gov
ernment.
The following letter was written by
Gen. Grant five years ago, in response
to an invitation from the Memphis
Chamber of Commerce to compliment
tary dinner at the close of his great
Tennessee campaign
MEMPHIS, TENN, Aug. 26, 1863.
GENTLEMEN: Ihaye received copy
of resolutions passed by the loyal citi-
zens of Memphis, at a meeting held at
the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce,
Aug. 25, 1861" rendering me public re-
ception.
In accepting this testimonial, which /
do at great sasriflce of my personal feel
ings, simpaly desire to pay tribute to
the first public exhibition in Memphis
of loyalty to the Government which
represent in the Department of the
Tennessee 1 should dislike to refuse,
for considerations of personal convent
ence, to acknowledge. anywhere or in
any form, the existence of sentiments
which I have so long and so ardently
desired TO see manifested in the Depart
ment The stability of this Govern
ment and the unity of this nation de-
pend solely on the cordial support and
the earnest loyalty of the people. While.
therefore, thank you sincerely for the
kind expressions you have used towards
myself 1 am profoundly gratifed at
this public recognition in The city OF
Memphis, of the power and authority OF
the Government of the United States.
thank you too, in the name Of the
noble army which l have the honor to
command. tits composed of men whose
loyalty has been proven by their deeds
of heroism and their willing sacrifices
of life and health. They will rejoice
with me that the miserable adherents
of the rebellion, whom their bayonets
have driven from this fair land, are being
replaced by men who acknowledge
human liberty as the only true foundation
of human Government. May your efforts
to restore your city to the cause of the
! Union be as successful as have been
theirs TO reclaim it from the despotit
rule of the leaders of the rebellion.
have the honor to be, gentlemen, you
obedient servant,

Seymour Gone Up!

All eyes are turning towards Pennsyl-
vania. What is the prospect in Penn
sylvania? is the universal question
among the politicians. Is there any
hope for Seymour in her coming October
election? None, from all the signs of the
times. If, then, on the 18th of October
the Republicans in the State elections of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Iowa
carry the day, what hope will there be
for Seymour in the general national
election of the Sd of November? None
in the world. Will the Republicans in
October carry the States indicated, in
Guiding Pennsylvania? We think they
W ill, and by handsome majerities, from
the tone the Northern pulse, as indi-
Gated in Vermont and Maine. What
then? Why, then the Presidential elec-
ton will be reduced to the mere formal
ity of casting and registering the popular
and electoral majorities of General
Grant.

MENrAL anxiety OF excessive thinking

MENTAL anxiety or excessive thinking
tend to deadeD the vitality of the scalp;
its effects are to produce febrile affec-
ton of the head, which causes gray hair
and badness; and although gray hairs
may be honorable in old age, yet prema-
ture blanching, or loss of hair in the
young or middle aged is to be regretted,
and as it is natural for us all to desire a
youthful appearance, we would recem-
mend to those Afflicted in the above
manner, the use of Halls Vegetable ST.
Gillian Hair Renewer. This preparation
will soon change gray hair and brashy
hair to its original color, and make it of
silken texture; and will create new
growth when it has fallen off, as it fur
nishes the nutritive principle which
nourshes the glands of the hair, filling
them with new life and coloring matter,
and giving healthy condition to the
whole fibrous mass.-[ Dramatic Chroni-

DISGUSTED WITH THE "SHOW. "A
young man living in the Southwest part
of Copley, who has heretofore acted with
the Democratic party, and whose father
was Democrat before him, rode in with
the delegation from his neighborhood ON

rageous conduct o. the crowd in which
he was training, he purchased a Grant

Certain Defeat.

From the New York Sun.
From the Injections which have taken
place, the prospect is that the Republicans
will sweep the country like whirlwind.
This result is to be attributed to the is
sue which the Democratic Nation Con-
vention decided to make in the election.
That is the issue of the war. 1t is scarce
ly anything else than continuation at
the ballot box of the struggle already
fought ont on the field of battle between
Secession and Unionism. On this issue
Lee, and Forres, and Wade Hampton
are.doomed in this contest, as they were
doomed in the war, to certain defeat.

MADISON, GA, Monday Sept, IA, Ices.
\ GENTLEMEN 1t would afford me
much pleasure to meet the Republicans
of North Carolina, in Raleigh. on Wed
uesday, and TO say something to them
in behalf of Grant and Colfax. From
all / can learn / am impressed with the
pleasing conviction that without foreign
aid YOU can give them the electoral vote
of your State. Ny business essengaeements
forbid my leaving Georgia ut this time
on auy account. / must content my
self with thanking you for the kind in
yitatior extended me and wishing you
the fullest success on the Sd of Novem-
her. When thateventful day shall have
passed. I can but believe, despite the
passion and prejudice tat mar the
the present time we shall emerge from
the murky atmosphere that now enVei-
opes.ts, TO the clear sunlight OF peace.
Weary of the gloomy retrospeet. per-
petuaiiy presented to the political vision
by the architects Of Southern ruin and
humiliation, our people will at last turn
20 the more agreeable future. To be
thrown back and to occupy the position
they did,at the overthrow Of the Con
