The Parable of the Pounds.

That portion of Maynard's speech at
Athens on Tuesday in reference TO the
Currcncy-thc Scvcn-Thirtics and Five
Twentics--is said TO have been more
than ordinarily luminous, and TO have
been listened to with apprcciatvc de-
light and satisfaction by his hearers.
We don't remember now that the fol-
lowing occurred in it:
"And he taught the people and spakc
unto them n parable"
In the paradise of the bondholdcr il
is rs with the man who borrowed from
friend $4,000 in gold.
But when the war came and when
the Chief Council at Washington de-
clarcd that debts should be paid in
grccnbacks. he went one day and bought
with his $4,000 in gold $4,000 in
grccnbacks. And he took thcrclrom
$4,000, and went to his friend and said {:
Here, my friend, take what | owe
thee
But the other said. 81 loaned thee
gold. and thou should'st repay me in
gold"
"Unbclicvcr,' cried the other, "rcad
this: 'This note is Il legal tender for all
debts, private and public etc. |, as II
loyal man show mySelfwiling and obc-
dent to the command of the Chief
Council. Thou wilt resist the laws of
the land. Thou art Il rebel, Il copper
head. and traitor. Here, take that
which is thine own. and go thy way"
And US the loyal man would not bury
his pound, he went and bought him,
with the remaining Sl5,0O0 which he
had honorably chrncd by this loyal
trade, United States five-twcnty bonds,
which ncttcd him an income of $500 in
gold, or $1,000 in the money of the
land about ID per cent. And he clad
himself in purple ramcnts."
And when he wished TO increase hi,
talents, he deposited his bonds in Wash
ington and it came to pass that he re-
ceivcd permission to take from the peo-
pie many thousands of dollars more ev-
cry year, because license was given
him to issue National Bank notes al
usury.
"For I say unto you, that unto every
one which hath, shall be given and from
him which hath not, even that which he
hath shall be taken away from him."
Then spoke the Chief Council:
"This loyal fellow shall be free from
all taxes and assessments
"And," cried the Republican Con.
vention at Chicago, Laborers and tax.

The Extrcmitics of the Radica
pnpfy

The Hon. CHARLES a. MoREIIEAD-
Ex-Governor of Kcntucky-rec
made speech at Frankfort, in that State
from which we make the following elo-
qucnt, forciblc, and truthful extract:
81 know that we have fearful odds to
contend against. The Radical party,
drunk with excess ofpowcr have shown
such Il total disregard ofall the restraints
Of the Constitution, that there is no
telling what desperate cNpedicnts they
will not resort TO TO achieve success.
Already the order seems to have gone
forth that the carpct-bag Legislatures,
in the recently reconstructed States,
shall choose electors of President and
Vice President, instead of submitting
the question. as everywhere else, TO the
people. They arc afraid of their own
registered votes in the States they have
reconstructed. They have reason
to be afraid of the people everywhere.
They have DISTINGUISHED the States of
Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas, and
excluded them from the Electoral Col
lcgc, and have introduced bill. which
will doubtless become II law, making it
II highly penal offence for the loyal pco-
pie of these States to attempt to vote.

mary military trials

he has thrown himself into the hands

that they will give it their withoriug

the Democracy have chosen standard

The Indians i'm Kansas.

The latest adviccs from the scene of
the Indian outragcs in the Western
Kansas report two hundred families
having left that vicinity; but one man
remains within distance of thirty
miles. The Indians were not known to
attack any one armed. They appeared
simultaneously along the valley for
twenty miles in small parties, robbing
settlers Of everything what stock they
could not carry Off was killed or mutt
lated. The Indians were all armed
with revolvcrs Just issued to them by
the government. 1t is not known that
II single Indian was hurt. Forty fami-
lies were at one time i'm stone pen,
nearly naked. and resisted the Indian
attack for five hours. The Indians arc
stealing provisions now to supply them
selves during the coming winter, and
declare that they will drive away the
settlers from all the streams in Western
Kansas.

SiaudCrinG the Dead.

We have it on radical authority that
the honorable Mr.. Maynard, in his
speech here on Tuesday, so far forgot
what is due to the mighty dead and to
the truth OF history, as TO assert that
the present radical party is engaged in
carrying out the principles and policy
advocated by HENRY CLAY. 1t is hard
" necessary TO contradict the mon
strous calumny. Were the great states

no more powerful opponent than he

up the lingering prcjudiccs Of some old

The President.

The radicals started u report Il few
weeks ago that President Johnson was
Indifferent about the success of the De-
mocratic ticket. The following, from Il
responsible source, ought to be conclu-
sivc on the subject and satisfy doubt
crs:
AT Democratic gathering in Wash
ington Friday night, it was formally an
nOunced that President johnson would
have been present but for an official
engagement. He, however, assured the
committee Of his cordial support OF
Seymour and Blair.
Not only does the President accord
the ticket a hearty support, but is ell
tircly confident of its success.

Disbanding OF the Militia.

Gen. Schofeld, Secretary of War, is
sued circular letter on the Dist inst. to
officers Of the army in the Southern
States, which includes the following
extract from the army appropriation
bill passed at the late session of Con-
'grcss:
''Bc it enacted, That all militia forces
now organized or in service in either of
the States of Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ala
bama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas
and Texas, be forthwith disbanded.
And that the further organization, arm
ing or calling into service the paid mill
tia forces or any part thereof, is hereby
prohibited under any circumstances
whatever, until the same shall be au-
thoriZcd by Congress.

Instructions About Troops.

Gen. Grant instructs Gems. Meade,
Thomas and buchanan relative to the
use Of troops in aid of civil authorities,
the obligations of Federal and military
officers and soldiers in common with
the citizens, to obey the summons OF
the Marshal or Sheriff. and must be
held subordinate to their paramount
dutya as members of Il permanent militia
Try body. Hence troops can act only in
their proper organized capacity, under
their own officers and in obedience to
the immediate orders of those officers.

A financial project so stupcndous in
conception, that we have not yet had
time to digest its details, was laid be-
fore the Senate yesterday by the III

State can succeed in borrowing money

Consistency.

While the General Assembly of this
State is lcgislating against the kukluX,
q secret political organization alleged
to exist in portions Of Middle and West
Tennessee, the managers Of the radical
party arc making tremendous cXcrtions
to rc-organizc the Loyal Leagues and
to win back those who arc falling away
from the order. Such transparent hum
buggcry and hypocrisy would hardly
lccniyc q blind man.

Indiana.

The New York Tribune is not marvel
ously confident of favorable result at
the coming election. 1t says:
"Wc hope to carry Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana, in October, but by small
maioritics, such as will animate both
parties to more determined efforts in
November. Our Indiana friends talk
of a large majority i'll that State; VIC
shall be content with u small one. We
do surely hope to carry this State, but
know well that hard work is required
to do it."

The Debt Increasing.

The Radical party talks Of rctrcncll-
mcnt and reform. Eut fearful as is our
public debt, and gigantic as arc the
revenues which the Radicals cXtort
from The pockets of the people, yet the
debt is Increasing. Last December See
rotary McCulloch reported TO Congress
that the total public debt, less cash in
the Treasury, amounted TO SID, 5Ol,-
$50. Ills statement of August 9TH, is
that on the first day of this month the
total public debt, less cash in the Trcasu-
ry, amounted to S2,523,53l, $50. Here
VIC have an increase of S32,03O, O3O-
Look at it-thirty-t,co mHlionS of in
eight months. In connection with this,
bear in mind that the Radical witness
Wells, states that the revenues cXtortcd
from the people during the year end
ing June 30th, 1868, amounted TO the ap.
paling sum of Sl7l,T00,OO0. And yet
so reckless and eXtravagant are our
Radical rulers that, while squeezing
out Of the people the gigantic sum of
S47l,700,000 in one year, they have run
the country in debt thirty-two millions
of dollars. Let the taxpayers of Ten,
ncsscc, who arc grooming under the OK
hausting burdens of taxation they arc
compelled to bear, look at the above
figures.
-Four hundred and scvcnty-two mil
lions Of dollars cXtortcd from the poo
pie in one year by the Radicals, and
still they run the country in dCbt.
