of the letter forwarded by the Coreans
TO Admiral John Rodgers, commanding
the United States Asiatic Squadron:
''In the year 1868, man, of yo, ma
ton, whose name was Febiger, ca me here,
communicated and went away. Why
cannot you do the same? ? Ia the year
1868, people, called the French, came

POLITICAL.
From the New York Evening Post.

The Democrats of Pennsylvania adopt
ed a new departure resolution when they
nominated candidates for State offices,
but the resolution was stubhornly oppos-
ed and the vote showed that about one
third of the memberS OF the convention
were opposed to it. Since then the new
departure has been discussed by the
Democratic journals, and the local con
ventions have considered 1t. One coun-
ty convention rejected the doctrine by a
decided vote, aud went So far as to de
mand a new State Convention TO eXpuDge
the new departure resolution in the plat
form.
The Bloomsbury C0lunsJiaa publishes
the resolution of the Democratic party OF
Pennsylvania in 1869. denying the right
Of Congress or any other power to confer
upon the negro the right to vote IN that
State, and asserts that that is the true
Democratic platform.
The Mercer Djspatch asserts that the
new departure resolution Is only the SUI
gar coating that covers the detestable
pill.
The Greensburg 1rgus remarks that
1.-THE Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
ments are fraudulent appendases to the
Constitution, aud that the Democratic
party cannot gulp these fraudulent amend
ments
In Iowa the new departure Is still more
unfortunate \ large part of the dele
! gates IN the State Convention fought it
earnestly, and several of the newspapers
i have refused to accept it. A report now
comes from Des MOines that several in
/ fiueutial Democratic leaders have called
another State Convention TO oppose the
new departure 1t is supposed that
! they intend To nominate another ticket
] for State officers, as we'll rs publish y new
platform OF old Democratic principles.

GENERAL WASE1BURNE

Gen. Washburne is held responsible,
without any reason for movement said
by the Milwaukee Nea0s to have origina-
ted in Washington, and the charge of
belonging to ring and the regency is
hurled against him without scruple, with
out evidence, and in defiance of his we'll
known independence of character and
unimpeachable honesty. One fact can
not be gainsaid, which is that Gen. Wash
burne stands high in the confidence of
the people, and to our knowledge, was
candidate of many sound Republicans
long before the raid was made on him by
the Netus and its co-adjutors. Let him
stand on his own merits Oshkosh N0th-
aCeSte7n.
The opponents of Gen. Wash burne
are determined not to 'let him stand on
his merits" On the contrary, they hope
by holding up conspicuously before the
eyes of the people the ISLANDERS Of the
Milwaukee Ne,cs to hide the fact that he
is man of irreproachable character, and
a wise and practical statesman of nation
al reputation. Sheboygdn Herald.
It is a principle in political warefare to
attack the best and strongest man of the
opposite party and by all means.
This we have seen in the slanderous as
saults on our noble United States Sena-
tor, and again on Gen. Washburne. -
Happily both these men are at such an
elevation from the democratic mire, that
our foes have to shoot their poisoned ar
rows at an elevation, which causes their
missiles by the mere laws of gravity to
fall back on themselves, without ever
reaching the objects of their aim. We
have full faith in the election of Mr..
Washburne next fail, as well as the tri-
umphant reelection Of Hon It. @. Howe
to the Senate of the United States.
So mote 1t be.

No TROUBLE ABOUT HELIGOLAND.-
1t will be remembered that recently the
New Y ork Herald had some highly sem
sational cable dispatches from Europe,
about trouble brewing between Germany
and Great Britain, and angry dispatches
passing between Bismarck and the Eng
lish Foreign Minister, because the little
island Of Heligoland was coveted by
demand has been made on England to
sell Heligoland, as reported, and the
opinion of German people and officials is
expressed by the Cologne Gazette when
it says that ''the German government is
certainly far from entertaining any inten-
ton of making demand for little rock
in the ocean, to which we have no legal
claim whatever, and by so doing prcju-
dice our relations to the power which we
have right to consider our natural ally"
and the Berlin VoHs Zeitung, when it
rebukes the irritable desire to SOW new
conflicts as the seeds of future wars and
deprecates making enemies in Eng gland,
(which never disturbed our peace, but
was for generations our instructor in cul
ture, industry, and the legislative devel-
opement of the political rights Of the
people" and says Germany has just
now attained rough, external unity and
needs to devote itself to internal organi-
zation. Not war, but peace, an honest
peace, must be our watchword for the

"OUGHT TO BE DAMNED. AT a
meeting of the Democracy of Ohio coun
ty, Indianna, held at Milton on the 10th
inst, the following resolutions were
adopted with great unanimity:
Resolred, That the Democracy of Ohio
county view with surprise and regret
the attempt to lead the party in the wake
of strange and ungodly gods and that we
hold any departure" from the known
and established principles of Jefferson,
Madison and Monroe, and their success
ors, jackson, Polk and Pierce. to be SUBJ
verslve of the most cherished interests
for which the Democratic lrty wus ush-
cred into existence, and tha. it would be an
acknowledgement that its illustrious dead
were but short-sighted and feeble states-
men.
Resolved, That, If the good old Demo
cratic ship must go to the bottom we will
sink with her-;n blaze of glory-our
banners nailed defantly to the mast s
head.
ResO7ved, That when we descend so low
as to barter our princi piles, to partake of
the loaves and fishes, we will be, and
ought to be damned.
There is the real old Democratic ring
to these resolutions, that will delight the
soul of Nasby.
