and Blair's infamous letter. 1t then
says:
The sentiments expressed by both
candidates are consonant with the
views aud wishes of the Southern
people, who only seek for that mea-
sure Of justice which the Coastitu-
ton and laws guarantee to every
State aud citizen. Gen. Blail has
only one way 10 which these outrag-
es on the Constitution can be checked
aud remedied and the Government
restored. 1t is this: The President
shall declare the reconstruction sct'
null and void, compel the army tC
undo its usurpations at the South
disperse the carpet bag Governments
allow the white people to recognize
their own governments aud elect Sen

This one sentiment contains a dec

In our attendance upon the Con-
gressional Convention at Clyde, on
Thursday last, We met a gentleman
recently removed from the State OF
New York, and powFa citizen Of
Sahdusky county, who lived for
twenty years, near the residence Of
Horatio Seymour's father, in Utica,
and knew of the generally concced.
ed fact that the family were afHict-
ed with hereditary insanity. He
related the occurrence of the senior
blowing his brainsout in the streets
of that city in a temporary fit Of
this disease. Do the people of this
Republic, desire a possible victim to
insanity for their President! Do
they want him to be succeeded in
the event of bis insanity by such q

New Books.

| Behind the Scenes. By ELIZABETH kEcK-
LEY, formerly O slave, but more recently
q modiste and friend to Mrs. ABRAHAM
LINCOLN. Or, Thirty Years a Slave and
Four Years in the White House. New
York: G.. ". carleton & Co. 1868.
This book has been sent us by Messrs. A.
| H. CHRISTIAN & Co., who have declined to
sell it, and returned the volumes sent them
by the publishers. We published yester-
day o criticism Of it from o northern paper
in which was crystalized the most salient
points in the book, and We have therefore
nothing very striking left for further no
tice. ELIZABETH KEoKLEY, known as
"L1zzIE," is, of course, the mere sponsor
for the work Of some cunning northern
man who has put in his own language her
| stories, and who has doubtless put in her
mouth much of his W %conceit, in which ne
has some purpose to subserve. "LIzz1E,"
we hope, is smart enough to have made a
| good bargain, and to know how to take pos
| session of and hold on to any money that
may be made by the book.
"L1zzIE" was for o time dressmaker to
| Mrs. JEFFERSON DAVIS, in Washington, and
soon afterwards became dressmaker for
Mrs. ABRAHAM LINCOLN. What she has to
say Of matters "behind the scenes" Of
both these ladies is no doubt in the main
true but there is q marked difference be-
tween the tenor of what is said of one and
the other-and the contrast is favorable to
Mrs. DAVIS and family.
The utmost freedom marks the LINCOLN
revelations. They show great familiarity
between Mrs. LINCOLN and ELIZABETH"
The confidential letters of the former to the
latter are published with entire freedom.
The reader understands the spirit of the
LINCOLN "reminiscences from what we pub
lished yesterday.
1t is o remarkable book-this freedwo-
mans disclosures. There is nothing in
them very startling or sensational. The
author tries to make up something exciting
on the subject of L1zzIE's early life, for
which purpose exaggeration is no doubt
a~bundantly employed. But slavery being
abolished, that is q theme of no great
piquancy now.
The book is a fair termination of the
Washington society underline Lincoln dy-
nasty, and as such may deserve q moments
study. So regarding it, we think our friends
Messrs. CHRISTIAN & Co., who were natu-
rally disguised at what purported to be the
retailed scandal of a colored freedwoman,
need not have returned the book. 1t is al
together an affair Of the North-of north
ern governmental society as organized en-
tirely Of northern ~people-and, therefore,
no concern of ours. We are mere "lookers-
