tbs sad TO think that the lives of those great

the ingratitude of the nation they cr>ed long

heads should have been trampled rnthlessly
by the hordcs who rode them in their mad pur-
suit of plunder; SAD that head and heart should
have been ranked by this people secondary TO the
blindly executing hand; sad that the very men
whom they had SO labOred to serve should have
learned to dstrust them to their counsel and
give confidence to those who had resisted eniancipa

How the Negroes are Mode to Serve
the interests OF Radical Politicians.

A few days ago Erery Epen,ng published what
putpored to be the proceedings of q meeting OF
negroes in the Ninth Ward, which contained q
set of resolutions. But only enc of the resolu-
tions appeared in the Commercial We copied
from Erery Erening the most important of them.
Why the Commercial did not publish them we
could not deyino. 1t now, however, appears
from what we read in the Chronicle, the organ
of the Ring. that the meeting was called by the
Commercial faction, and one Of the objects was
to have embraced in the resolutions sympathy for
the negro night scavengers aud denuncation Of
the "Odorless monopoly But when the meet
ing prepared to act, all Pickelyille was found
to be present, and instead OF the platform that
was TO be made and sent abroad. different set of
resolutions were handed to the committee. (none
of whom could write,) and they were reported
aud read; bat whether adopted or not in the
"muss' that followed we cannot say. But in its
tcstacy, the Ring organ eXclams, "unfortunate
Commercial" triumphant Pickelville.'
THIS Is the lu,licrous feature of this affair. We
d. not pretend 10 vouch for the truth OF the story
But from the fact that another account of the
meeting has been published signed by all the ne
MO men ard women of the Ninth Ward, who
we're present and who allege that the proceed
ings aS published il Ecery Eoenng were entirely
false W presume there must he some truth in
the story
As the resolutions of the meeting attacked the
organic law oil the State and our whole State
Code and Public School system. and one of them,
demanding representation according to popula-
ton, was published with approving comments in
the Commercial as the sentiments of our colored
citizens, we publish elsewhere the second version
OF the proceedings OF The meeting. 1t must be re-
membered that the majority Of the votes of the
Radicals are cast by negroes whether negro wo-
men have vo ed in disguise in the strong Radical
districts In Delaware or not VIC do not know,
but they have in other places.
But this meeting shows to hat a depth of
degradation the party once led by John NJ. Clay
ton has fallen in Delaware, and how much rel-
ancc there is to be placed in what the Radical pa
pcrs refer to pubhc opinion.

AN ARCHBISHOP ON THE TEMPERANCE MovE

AN ARCHBISHOP ON THE TEMPERANCE MOVE
MENT.-Archbshop j. b Purcell, of Cincin-
natl, has issred circular replying at length to
numerous applications made TO him for sympathy
and cooperation in the wemeu's crusade against
intemperance The reply is not at all pleasing
to the crusaders and their friends. The arch
bishop says he has often publicly expressed his
sympaty with movements in behalf Of temper
ance. He has ever been ready to cooperate
with any wise effort in this direction, and has
for years prscticed total abstinence with view
to setting good example. He declares in fay-
or Of license with heavy fees rather than prohi-
oition. BY strict and severe license laws he
thinks vile bar-rooms where bad liquor is sold
could be closed This, he conceives, would be
the most eiectual check TO the evil we deplore
by diminishing perhaps by 600 the 8 600
'craters Of helr' by which the city of Cincinnati
Is IN peril OF combustion, and payiog the city
much if not all the expense of the workhouse
aud other institutions which honest and sober
citizens are now shamefully taxed to support.

The Hepa5iican says that the Collectors of this
city have returned to the Levy Court the names
OF some 5000 persons as dclinquents We doubt
this. But that paper should remember that the
Radical Collectors returned nearly as many seye-
raj years ago when there had been no panic, and
the population was not SO large. The delinquents
then Of one section Of the city alone was over four
teen hundred; and W. presume the aggregate
was about 26o0 These were nearly, if not quite
ALL white men. During the last fall and winter
II was said that hundreds of the men who were
ASSESSED at the shops that have since been closed
had gone elsewhere TO lind work. Perhaps this
may be one of the causes OF there being large
number of dehnquenls returned this year.
