Remember.

That our readers may have a sum-
mary view of the consequences O.
Radical rule in this country for the
last eight years, we append the follow
ing:
The permanent success of Radical
ism will be the destruction of the Re
public.
The Radicals have destroyed the
writ of habeas corpus;
Have driven our shipping from the
seas;
Have inaugurated extortionate pro-
tective tariffs ;
Have burdened the country with a
grinding system of taxation
Have placed us under military rule
and greedy Satraps;
Have abolished free elections and
surrounded the polls by bayonets;
Have fostered monopolies at the
expense of the laboring masses;
Have given away u public lands
to corporations;
Have plundered the people for the
benefit of bondholders
Have attempted the destruction of
State rights;
Have attempted to create a military
despotism on the ruins of the republic.
Have made bribery and corruption
the'rule in office;
Have elected carpet-baggers and
thieves to Office.
They have paid over twenty-five
millions of dollars within the last
year of the peoples money in gratuit-
Gus premiums to the bondholders;
They have in General Grant and
those around Kim, disgraced the coun-
try. He and his kin in office are treat
ing the United States is a private farm
to draw their support from.
The Grants and their supporters
consider the people as "hewers of
wood and drawers of water" for their
benefit.
They want to retain their fat places
and cry out, ''let US have peace" but
say, "let us have a change"

Gen. Morgan.

The Ashland Times processes to be
unable to see why Gen. Morgan should
not have identified himself with the
Republican party at the close of the
a The reason is obvious. The
leaders of that party falsified every
promise they made as to the object of
the a They claimed to be per Sc,
the "Union Party" But as soon as
the wal was over, and secession pro
nounced a failure, the leaders of tn at
party proceeded to break up the Union
by declaring the Southern States cut
oft. Either secession was 4 success,
or the Republican leaders are dis-un-
ion:sts. Gems. Morgan, Ewing, Nc
Clellan and hundreds of others found
they had been deceived, and that the
real purpose of the Republican leaders
was to destroy the Union and create a
military despotism. As honest men
they had to take their places in the
ranks of the Democracy, the only true
Union party in existence. The editor
of the Times has already admitted that
the Republican party has had three
hundred official thieves who have not
been prosecuted for their thefts and
~defalcations The General told his
audience when in Ashland, that he
condemned and denounced these ras-
calities. Of course he could not iden
tify himself with a party that is doing
It's level best to cover up and conceal
these frauds from the people.

Government DeiauIters,

Of the ten named by the States and
Union this week, Senator Sherman
says, seven were Democrats appointed
to Office by Andrew johnson. We
have no excus for the Republican de-
faulters, they should be dealt with by
all the seventies of the law. What
mild punishment have you Bro. Hill,
for these Democratic scven.-Ashland
Times.
The Times, then, admits that two
hundred and ninety-three Of the de-
faulters, as charged by us, were Re
publicans, and says they should be
dealt with by all the seventies of the
law. All right. Now let Grants Ad.
m~inistration do its duty, or be charged
by the Times with shielding defaulters
and robbers from the just penalties
of the law.
But he alleges that seven of the de-
faulters were Democrats appointed by
President johnson! We deny it.
MI. Johnson, never appointed any
man to Office who did not vote the
Republican ticket. We want John
Sherman to give the names of those
seven or 60 charged with classifying
the records. Who are they?
Moreover, Andrew johnson, was a
Republican, elected by tie Republican
party, against the protests of the De
mocracy Z and the Republican party
cannot escape the responsibility of his
political acts. That he "went back"
on a large number of corrupt Repub-
ljcaD leaders, cannot be denied; and

! DIR. PURDY WILL GIVE ONE OF
THE MANY LETTERS.
CHARLEsTowN, CLARK Co., IND.,
February 6, 1870.
DIR. 7. PURDY-Dear Sir: In your last
letter to me you wished me to give you a
statement of my case, which l will endeav-
or to do truthfully. 1 entered the United
served in various departments until the 9Th
of September, 1861. l was wounded and
taken prisoner at the battle ofChickamauga.
1 then weighed 196 pounds. 1 was sent to
Cahawba prison, and remained there until
the Sth of April, 1866, exposed to every pri-
walton that it was possible to expose men to.
In the fall of '64 1 caught a violent cold,
which settled on my lungs, and terminated
in tuberculous consumption. Five days af-
ter 1 was released l was weighed by the hos
pital stewart of Elm street hospital, at Me-
ridian, Miss, and I weighed but 90 pounds.
1 lay in this helpless condition SO days, not
able to articulate a sentence, even in a whis-
per, as the vocal rgans were completely
paralyzed. More than twenty different phys
icians paid me a visit, as l was a medical
man they did everything in their power for
me, but all agreed that / must die. At this
time they watched me constantly to see the
last spark of life die out but thanks to God
DR.. Purdy, a classmate of mine, who
heard of my condition, came to see me. He
begged of DIR. Martin, the Surgeon in charge,
for the privilege of putting me under a
course of Physio-medicaI treatment. At
last the surgeon said, "you can rob him of
but a few hours, anyhow, as he cannot live
but "a hours longer" In less than one
hour after / took the first dose of medicine,
1 eliminated, or threw from my lungs more
than a pint of yellow, effervesciye c2rrup-
ton, and in less than two hours, l could talk
as well as ever, and now my weight is 146
pounds, and 1 enjoy all the blessings OF per
feet health. G. r. HOPEWELL, NJ. -.

KC-KLUX INVESTIGATIONS.
The Ku-Klux sub committee arc
still engaged in the examination OF
witnesses, but nothing of special
interest has been elected. One class
| of witnesses testify to peace and order
and the absence of Ku-Klux organi-
cations. in certain Southern localities,
while another class testify in an oppo-
site direction. It is stated that a sub
committee will be sent in October to
investigate the alleged Ku-Klux or
CARNATIONS in Mississippi, three hun
bred of whom were indicted at the
recent term of the United States Court
at Oxford, in that State.
EXECUTIVE APPOINTMENTS.
The President has appointed Bar
clay White, of New Jersey, Superin-
tendent of Indian Affairs for the Nor
thern Superintendency; John G.. Nc.
Collum, Register of the Land Office,
Lewiston, Idaho Territory; Thomas
Donaldson, of Idaho, Commissioner to
Philadelphia ON the occasion of the
one hundredth anniversary of Ameri-
can independence, and James S. Rey-
nolds, of Idaho, to be the Commission
er's substitute for the purpose.
THE M'GARRAHAN CLAIM.
The Secretary of the Interior has
decided in effect that a patent never
has been issued to McGarrahan for
the Sinoche Grand Quicksilver Mine,
and hat the application of the new
Idaho Company for a patent for four
hundred and eighty acres is defective
and should not be granted. 1t ex-
ceeded the amount that could be grant
ed under the act of1866, which limited
a grant to any association of persons
to not more than three thousand feet.
THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. QUAR-
REL.
Nothing additional has occurred
since yesterday, in the Boutwell,
Pleasanton trouble; but it is known
that General Pleasanton will vacate
his Office in a day or two. The change
would have been made some time ago,
but for the fact that the Commissioner
requested a short delay for reasons of
his Own. Iii is known that the Presi-
dent decided long ago to make q change
in the office, and that he yesterday
distinctly asked for the resignation of
General Pleasanton. The latter, how
ever, has frequently asserted that he
would not resign; but since Grant
has determined upon a change, it is
thought that he will reconsider his
decision, if he has not already done so.
At any rate, he is to be replaced with
out further delay. Secretary Bout
well stated to-day that General Pleas
anton would retire in n day or two,
and that Deputy Commissioner Doug
lass would succeed him, but whether
as Commissioner or Acting Commits
s%ioner, he did not state. The friends
