The great argument used by the carpet
bageers among the negroes to secure and retain
the colored vote has been the constantly re-
iterated assertion that II the Democrats should
come into power again slavery would at once
be reestahished This led many colored men
who habitually consulted their old masters
for advice in ordinary affairs, to rank
themselves in solid array against the whites
whenever It came to voting. The negroes are
learning better now, as was shown in Missis
sippi the other day. With equal disregard Of
truth aud probability. the GRANT organs are en-
desyoring to induce Northern voters to believe
that the overthrow Of the present corrupt Ad-
ministration would give the Government en-
tirely INTO the hands OF unroconstructed rebels,
who would Immediately proceed to pass
laws pensiOning Confederate soldiers, and pro-
yidins for the payment TO former slnvel old
ers Of the money value OF the slaves freed
by the act Of emancipation; OF, at the least,
that they would insist upon the Reputation Of
the debt contracted In the prosecution Of the
civil war. OF course, no person OF common
sense IN the North pays any attention to these
absurdities hut an esteemed and exceedingly
well-informed correspondent in Louisiana de-
sires us to expose the falsity OF such charges
and we cannot do better than TO quote his own
words in regard to them:

We commend this extract from our CORE
spOndeDts note TO the consideration of all adyo-
Gates Of rag money and beg them TO ponder IL,
as 1t expresses the views Of the vast majority Of
influential Democrats-the men VINO lead In
popular oplnion-throughout the South. Those
who suppose that the irredeemable currency
project finds favor with any large proportion Of
the intelligent classes In the Southern States,
labor under a great mistake. They tried the ex-
pertinent during the late war, and the results
can be bought to-day for about two cents a
bushel.

II il impossible for MooDy ard SANKEY
to ACCEPT the pressing invitations that reoch
them from almost every city In the United
States. The pressure upon them Is tremend Gus.
Every city East and West thinks that II has the
most urgent necessity for them, that II Is the
very best place for them 20 work In, and IL sure
to reward them with signal success. The rivalry
between some cities to secure them at the
earliest moment IL rather unseemly. The
anxious parties should all remember that the
reyvalists are carrying on operations In Brook
lyn which il very wicked city; that they ad-
dress vast mutitudes several times every day,
and that hopes Of the triumph Of the revival
there are Yet INDUCED in. They should not forget
that 1t would be great misfortune for the re-
tlyal to fail in he first great city In which the
evangelists have labored and that the effect Of
such failure would be TO discourage the reViv
elsewhere. Yet we must add that 1t Ia interesting
to see many cities, from Quebec to san Fran
cisco striving to secure their services. II shows
how deep and widespread Is the feeling that a
moral transformation Is necessary, and that
something must be done To stem the tide OF
wickedness and vice. This is n hopeful sign. II
may properly be called an awakening. 1t should
be taken advantage ~. The press well as the
pulpit should take advantage Of IT, The press
can be very serviceabe by explaining and en-
forcing moral principles, by applying them to
public affairs, and by showing how they are re-
lated to society and to the practical business OF
the community. II the editors Of the country
do their duty al this time, they will become
more innuenti i and useful than ever.

gelists are reported TO have given the ! rge
profits on the rale % these hymns In England
for tho benefit OF religious teaching In London;
but this does not justify them In setting up
book stall over against the pulpit Of tho re-
vivalists. Better give up the commercial side
Of the business entirely, Brother MOODY and
Brother SANKEY.
We printed the communication OF J. NJ,
the man who confesses that he has been aste DIV
and excessive drinkcr for eight years past IN
compliment to the sincerity Of the writer not
to the logical orrcclness Of his argument, nor
because we admit his statement Of the Rst OF
our article on The Diseased Passion for Ardent
Spirits" III. NJ. will carefully read the article
again, he will perceive that 1t II not add essed
to the confirmed nebriate, but to the occasional
drunkard who has some degree Of will power
left in the intervals Of his disease; not to the
excessive and steady drnker, whose reasoning
powers have been injured by incessant over
stimulation Of his brain, but to the man who
begins to feel his danger manifested by the
occasional inordinate thirst for alcoholic stimu-
lants. Nor did we assert that there was any
curative power ia the simple tonic remedies for
deranged digestion and disordered nerves which
we printed, not prescriptions for dis
ease, but az means that have been recon-
mended by the pest physicians, oil Tor
Irving the physical powers OF tne uTunkMu
while he IA trying to put forth all the moral
strength he possesses To resist temptation. II
Is addressed, moreover to the medical profess
sion in general, who have heretofore, with the
exception of few noble, progressive minds,
given less study to this great national disc In
its incipent stages than IL has demanded from
them.
when a drunkard has reached the point Of
disease which you describe so well as resulting
In the utter sublection Of his will TO his passion
for drink, the only place for him is within the
walls Of an inebrate hospital You have made
a very hasty statement In saying that "in nine
tv-nine cases out of "A hundred death only can
relieve him" Our own State Inebriate Asylum
reports. as rendered 10 the Legislature Of the
state of New York by Its intelligent and far
sighted Superintendent, DIR. LYMAN CONGDON.
and its able board Of managers, show that
"more than sixty per cent. Of the number OF
| those who have been under treatment In the
| asylum At Binghamton are now fully restored,
their habits corrected, and they are engaged IN
business, reformed and sober men," 1t Is roa-
sOnabe to conclude that large proportion Of
these men were, when they entered the institu-
| ton, in condition very closely approaching
that in which J. ". and others would decide
| that the only relief for them would be In death.
