be formed between the Hispano-

authorized to propose this to the other
Republics, and that when it is formed
Spain should he informed that Latin
America considers that the day has
arrived when the Spanish dominion
should cease in the Antilles, and the
attempt should he made to induce her
to retire her forces, leave those islands
to govern themselves as they wish.-
Friendly relations are to be establish

she lends herself willingly to these

case of refusal, that all relations
with Spain should case; that all Span

selves in an attitude of war and shut

Mr.. Lnfamme said that an appeal
to England for support in case of an

An Address from the Democratic Sem
atOrs and Representatives I'm Con-
gress.
To our FGHOp-cHi.ens Of the United
States, Friends of Constitutional,
Economical and Honest Govern
ment:
The undersigned beg leave to call
your attention to the peculiar import
ance of the elections which take place
this year, and respectfully to submit
suggestions for your consideration.
BY the State Legislatures to be elect
ed, nearly one third of the United
States Senate will be chosen, and
nearly all the members of the next
House of Representatives are to be
elected next fall. Upon the coming
elections, then, depends the question
whether the Democratic and Conser-
vative element in the Senate shall be
| increased, and whether that element
shall have majority of Representa-
tives in the House of Representatives,
and as a consequence, whether we
shall have constitutional, economi-
cal and honest government, or con-
tinuance of revolutionary, extrava-
CANT and wilful partisan rule; wheth-
or we shall have general, uniform,
Just and constitutional legislation,
with reasonable taxation and frugal
expenditure, or an unconstitutional,
partial, unjust and class legislation,
! with oppressive and unequal taxation
and wasteful expenditure. That we
have strong reasons to hope for IA
vorable result is plainly apparent
|, The elections already held clearly
show that the tide of reform has sci
in with power that can't be resisted
Let no blunders be committed by the
friends of reform. If they do theil
duty aud act wisely; If they throw
of all apathy, and act with vigor ant
steadfastness, there Is every reason u
, hope their efforts will be rewarded by
success. Let there be no dissensioni
} about minor matters; no time lost II
the discussion of dead wants; no man
Hesitation of narrow or prospective
feeling; no sacrifice of the cause Il
5 crafty personal ambition or resent
ment; and let the best men he chosei
for candidates, and we may hope L
see our country redeemed from ms
D rule. And in this connection we hel
r leave to say word to our fellow-citl
!, zens of the Southern States. DO no

"Port Royal" correspondent of
the Springfield Record, suffers his
zeal to override his discretion, when
he travels ont Of his way to cast re-
Elections upon the "Clarksville bar"
They need no defense at our hands,
and we shall attempt none, further
than to remind Port Royal" that
brains will tell. The idea Is doubtless
new TO him, but Is nevertheless true,
and the GAINESVILLE bar will exert am
influence as long as 1t has brains and
the people have minds to be acted
upon by the force Of intellect. When
the people find them as weak as their
assailants, then their influence will
cease to be felt by Others, as it is by
Port Royal, and for the same reason.
This correspondent doubtless thinks
he dealt death-blow to Judge Rice
when, after bespattering him with
faint praise, he concludes with the
oracular assertion that, physically,
he is not strong enough for the duties
of the position; mentally, he is not
as great as Col. Stark--not SO well
acquainted with law"
To show the differences between as
sertion and fact, we call upon "Port
Royal" for proof of the foregoing as
sertions, and also for the system of
diet, which has made him, at once,
physician, metapiysician and law
yer. When he has established these
charges against Judge Rice, we shall
call for his proofs of the athletic, and
mental abilities of Col. Stark. We
do not deny their existence, but since
the contest turns upon these points,
little proof will be acceptable. The
good people of the District, as well as
ourselves, will be pleased to learn
upon what fields Col. Stark won his
his fame, and Judge Rice betrayed
his weakness. Col. Stark has, on sew
eral occasions, presented his claims,
in person, before the people, and they
would like to learn how, or why they
so signally failed to discover the vast
superiority, now claimed forhim, over
his competitor. Was his want ofsuc-
cess ascribable, on those occasions, to
the GAINESVILLE bar? If so, Port
Royal" will give us the proof or with
draw his charges. The people are nc
more to be bamboozled by his empty
defamation than by the GAINESVILLE
bar. Points not susceptible of proc
should be left out of every controver.
sy, and where they constitute the
whole capital stock, the cause is toe
weak to be worth defending.

THE New York Herald notices q
meeting, at Cooper's Institute, of
what it.terms Southern Women's
Bureau" designed to aid in the edu-
cation not of Southern girls, but
Southern women, This eager solic-
itude, in an uncalled for direction,
savors, we think, strongly, of free
love-woman's rights. There may be
some Southern women who are will
ling to be indoctrinated in the mys-
teries of fast women, but it is a gra-
tuitous assumption, that Southern
women, in the aggregate, desire or
would accept the proffered aid, and
certainly not without being satisfied
with credentials as well as the mo-
tives of those who offer their services
as teachers.
Southern women can get at home,
the education best adapted to their
wants, and certainly best adapted to
the maintenance Of that purity of
character for which they have ever
been distinguished, and the full de-
velopment of those womanly quail
ties that make them SO loveable in
all the relations of life. If this new
tangled Bureau means well, we beg
pardon for anything offensive in our
remarks. But the truth is, we look
with distrust upon anything from
such n quarter, and oui anxiety is
deep, to guard woman's purity from
all contact with the loose ideas of the
freelove school, and the demoralizing
doctrines taught by Lucy Stone arc
those who act with her.
If the axiom be true that, by theil
works ye shall know them, this Blu
reau should present n cleaner record
ut home, before abandoning its pres
ent field of labor to graft its mischiev
Gus doctrine upon widely different
stock. And when it can show "a pure
Christianity, higher grade of NOR
ality and social system devoid u
: the vices and crimes which disgrac
both sexes, daily and hourly, it can
at least, give proof of fitness for tn
task it has so gratuitously underta
: ken. But whilst freelove repudiate
the marriage ties and spurns femal
chastity rs an obsolete superstition
and whilst Womun's Rights cult
vate the same damnable horesie'
g and would hush the voice of censur
+ by the simulated bearing, bravad
: and independence of man, the SoutI
y begs To he spared both the teacher
! and the doctrines. Let us alone
