PROPOSED RAILROAD PUR-
CHASE.

Hon. John B Baldwin, of Virginia, has
addressed letter to the Governor of that
State, as counsel for the principal owners
of the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Railroad, proposing to negotiate
for the States interest il and claim against
the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad
Company. whose road runs from Lynch
burg to Bristol, connecting at the latter
place with the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia Railroad. The basis of the
negotiations is an offer TO give State
bonds and interest at par to the full
amount of stock held by the State in the
Virginia and Tennessee railroad Com
pany for the entire interest and claim of
the State-the State transferring its con-
troverted demand against the company to
the purchasers for the common benefit OF
all stockholders. They propose TO pay
in State bonds and interest at par
100000 Of the price on the rati-
fication of the contract, and the residue
in three equal annual payments thereafter,
the payment of $500, 900 to be held as
security for the after payments, and to be
forfeited upon failure to comply with the
contract The stocks to be placed under
the control of the purchasers from the
making of the first payment 50 far as to
authorize them to vote in meetings of the
company but not TO be transferred in
ownership until fully paid for. They
will ask as condition of the contract
that the charter of the Virginia and Ten
nesSee Railroad Company shall be amend
cd SO as to allow one vote for each share
of stock in the meetings of the company
Gov. Walker has submitted the letter to
the Legislature. The Richmond Enquj-
rer, referring to the above proposition,
says: ......
"This new offer, note, does not come
from Baltimore, nor from NeeO York
either. 1t comes from parties in tho
West, who offer to bind themselves by
stringent provisions to make the Vir-
ginia and East Tennessee railroad not the
feeder TO foreign city under preteXt of
fostering city of our own, but the trunk
line for every city of Virginia, which,
seated on Underwater, claims the advan
tages of its location as fer as fair AMI

THE New York Tribune objects to the
admission Of that illustrious carpet Dagger
and broker in cadetships, recently re-
elected TO Congress by the negroes of the
first district of South Carolina. What is
the matterl Is not Mr.. Whittemore an
earnest Radical, and is not the success of
the party of great moral ideas a matter of
more importance than the personal char
actcr of the men whom it may send TO
Congress! If the Tribune intends 10
make decency rather than earnest Radi-
calism test of fitness for Office, We shall
soon see it urging the expulsion of fully
three-ffths of the members of the present
House of Representatives.

Want Vitality.

Sometimes there is lack Of vitality In large and
sinews and muscles are not always indicative Of
stamina and constitutional vigor in their possess

the stomach, the liver and the bowels, than upon
the breadth of the shoulders or the size of loose
levers and puleys of the system in which strength
is supposed to reside. An this grand animal ma
chinery is of itself no protective against sickness
and decay. Easy and perfect digestion, regular
and healthy secretious, UncontaTninstcd blood,
and regular discharge OF the waste matter of the
body through the intestines, the kidneys and the
pores, the most potent safeguards against dis
ease the best guarantees of longevity To promote
these objects is the great end and purpose of aos

the Great Tonic and Alternative is composed are ia

GEORGE w. LOWRY, prominent and
influential Radical politician in Ohio, has
come out from that ''foul party" and
Joined the Democracy In doing so he
prefers the following charges against the
Radicals: ''Thcy mean 10 destroy the
sovereignty of the States, and TO central
izs the power Of the government They
mean to force upon white men political
and social equality with the negro race.
They are sustaining 8. swarm of useless
government luafcrs called officers, who
live, of course, on the sweat and toll of
the laboring producer. They protect
monopolics at the expense and without
the consent of the public, and they levy
and uphold unequal taxation, which tends
to establish moncycl and landed arts
tocracy, such as exists in all monarchical
governments

I'VE publish to1dAy an important letter
4 from D. r., the Washington correspond
ent of the Cincinnati Commercial, Radi-
cal. The writer, as he states, has been
over q year in Washington, S'employed to
criticize our public men and put to news
paper Fecord-theiE- pubic. actssil---Feaour
knowledge he has been dligeni in the
discharge of his duty. Radical in prin
ciple, sympathy and association, be is
nevertheless compelled to admit that,
turning his back upon what he could wish
for, and looking with calm, philosophical
impartialiiy uIon What l., We use his own
words, he is forced to say Chat there is
no more cohesion beyond mere Office hold
ing and public plumber in the Republican
party than there is in rope sand. y He
adds 'that while the Democracy is a
compact, well organized body, represent
ing certain feelings that make of its parts
one efficient whole, the Republicans are
3 T. = ~ = 4
of one party only in name, and each
leader is the representative of a faciionin
deadly hostility to some other faction in
side the organization. .. - In! q word
the Republican party in Congress is com
posed of factions in such deadly an
tagonism to each other, that the hate
among themselves is more intense than
that given the Democracy. h 40 slalsg-1
These words, coming from "a Radical
correspondent Of. a Radical journal, from
keen observer, a shrewd politician with
an acute knowledge Of men, give the
greater encouragement to the people of the
South that the day of their bondage APP
proaches its close. These differences
in the Radical party were perceived by
the shrewdest of their leaders, at the
head of whom stands Senator Morton, of
Indiana, and they attempted, by means of
a Congressional caucus, to close the
breaches which existed in the Radical
ranks. The effort failed and the crushing
victories of the Democracy in Connect
cut and New York gave the fatal blow to
the reeling body of Rsdicalism. All that
is necessary to secure and perpetuate the
triumph is for the people of the South TO
plant themselves upon the firm founda-
ton of principle and lock shoulders with
the opponents of Radicalism in the East,
the North and the West. ~

THE ALLIES IN INsURRECTIoN.

IhE ALLIES IN ANSC kkbEOAAONs
The Radicals, in their efforts to carry
the Southern States by extending the
ballot, are beginning to find that they
have got huge elephant on their hands.
The st. Louis Republican says: Those
new children of the ballot, the negroes,
are not handling the weapon placed in
their unaccustomed hands, as docilely and
discTeetly as their instructors could wish.
They are proving themselves the ertGntS
terri6les of the party. They are becom-
ing Unexpectedly obstreperous, and not a
little ungrateful. In some places they
are slashing away at the skulls of
their beloved instructors with the
most thankless vchemence. In Mis-
souri,, they are waglng war against
the Radical legislative platform, and
preparing to demand three or four of
fees on the State ticket for their own
race, with strong hint at nominating
their favorite, j. Milton Turner, for the
chief Office. They claim twenty thou
sand new votes, and exhibit all the i'm
portance that such a considerable show of
strength involves. They reason that If
the German element has TO be propitiatcd
in the party conventions by giving half or
two-thirds of the offices to Germans, the
colored element may claim all the consid-
Grafton that one-ffth the party vote enti-
ties it TO. The fifteenth amendment is
scarcely two months old, and yet the
leading organ of Radic4lism finds more
than i: can do IN disciplining the yefrac-
tory Turner into meek submission to
party rules, and restraining him from
leading his column of twenty thousand
against the legislative programme.
In Washington City the turbulence of
the colOred element is more irrepressible
still. There, it controls the party, out
laws the white element, and actually COM
pels it to bolt the regular nomination, put
up an independent ticket, and appeal TO
"copperheads" to save them from indis-
criminate massacre and pillage by their
black auxiliaries The municipal cleo
ton in that city took place on Monday
it was Bowen and the blacks against
Emery and the whites-Forney acting as
champion of the former, and the latter
backed up by the Senate, the House, the
whole force of the administration, and a
battalion of cavalry. If such things are
seen in the green tree, what may we ex-
pect in the dry?

THE Radicals are laboring hardto show
that the result of the recent election in
Washington is not a Democratic victory.
If the Democrats had not voted for
Emery, who was the reform candidate, it
is very certain that the Radicals would
have triumphed IN the reelection of
Bowen

EX-SENATOR NEsMITH, of Oregon, will
probably be the Democratic candidate for
Senator from that State. He is said to be
wit-an imperturbable wit and full of
sense besides. He was in the Senate dur
ing the carly part of the war, when, as he
said one day on the floor, in the midst of
a thousand other sidc-splitting things,
"Brigadiers were 50 plentiful in the
streets and hotels that a boy couldn't
throw stone without striking one of
them" and it was not till after he had
made this decided hit, that Mr.. Lincoln
got the gallant warriors" to the front.

An incident occurred in the House of
Representatives the other day, which
shows how jobs arc put through Cons
gress. The last article on the free
list in the tariff bill, as il passed
the House is 'levant glorite." There
has been good deal of inquiry en-
the floor to-day as to the nature of the
article. 1t appears it was not in the
original bill, nor in Schenck's printed sub
stitute, and just how it got in has not
been explained. 1t is reported to be a
blind term for asbestos, and that the real
significance of the matter will be found
in the fact that three mines have lately
been found in Canada, and joint stock

the appetite has failed, IT Is quickened;
if digestion has been painful and imper-

the liver is torpid, it is reused aud regu-
lated; If the nerves are relaxed, they are
strengthened and restrlng; Il the brain
has been haunted by morbid fsncies, they
are put to fight and hope and cheerful-
ness return. In the face Of the extraor-
binary cures of general debility, dyspep-

Bitters, no practitioner not In leagus with
