We copy the following from the As
toria Astorian, the editor Of which has
always been a Republican and a life
time antagonist Of the Democratic par
ty.
~. y. KIScAID.
Mankind II unco weak, and rarely to be
trusted;
When self the wavering balance keep
It's rarely right adjusted
Or words to that effect, ring in our ears
as We tore the wrapper of a copy of the
National Republican of June 9th, and
found the name of II. r. Kiacaid print
ed on the margin in double paragon
type. Mr.. Kincaid was elected from
among the faithful in Oregon to go TO
Washington and take a situation as
clerk in the senate under the admins
tration of Senator Williams, which po-
sition he has filed up to the present
time. He has at the same time, we
believe, published paper at Eugene
City in the interest of the Republican
party, though this is from hearsay, as
we have not seen copy of his State
Journal for at least Eve years. The
first impressions, made upon tearing of
the wrapper and observing Kincaid's
name, was corToborated as we scanned
the columns of the paper, and found
therein three columns of closely printed
matter abusive of Senator Grover and
Mr.. H. II. Gilfry. The probable rea-
son foI all this is to be found in the
fact that Mr. Gilfry is Mr.. Kincaid''
successor to the position Of clerk in the
United States Senate. Now, We pro
fess to be equally as faithful to the fun
damental institutions of this govern
ment as Mr.. Kincaid, perhaps more so
because we never mixed "plunder" Will
our patriotism, and looking at his efforts
to belittle Mr.. Grover, and Mr.. Gilfry
because he (Kincaid) had lost his posi-
tion as clerk, is SO much like Phil. Saun
ders' recent attempt to besmirch th,
geod name of Collector Kelly, ii
Portland,-when dismissed as ianitol
or porter, in building, we canno
resist the opportunity to express on
contempt for the man, above whom
Grover and Gilfry soar SO high in th
scale of gentleman, as to make Kincai
appear the very essence of rewards
hireling.

SLIM EVIDENCE.

A family grocer in the northern part
of the city has been annoyed a great
deal by boys stealing boxes and other
articles from the yard in the rear of the
store, and the other day he made ready
for visit, determining to catch boy
and make an example of him. BY and
by four or five lads dropped off the
fence into the yard, and they were
mousing around in search of plunder
when the grocer rushed at them. Some
how or other all got over the fence, but
one boy left behind him on rail about
half yard of cloth from the "bulge'
of his breeches. With this proof in his
hand tie grocer rushed around and out
upon the street, and as luck would have
it he collared the boy who had lost the
patch.
"Now I've got you-now I've got
proofr exclaimed the grocer, as he
waved the cloth on high.

boy.

ssYou hain't got no case agin me,mis-
ter, said the lad, as he eyed the cloth,
'sfor 1 kin prove that these breeches
belong to my brother Sam IF you
want to arrest him go ahead"
The occasion was too big for the gro
Ger to grasp, and while he was trying
to master the conundrum the boy and
the big rent walked of in close compa.

In the course Of his Grafton at Den
yer, n. H, on Decoration Day, the
Rev. A. III. Q lint said; Between eight
and nine o'clock on the morning of No
vember lst, 1777, the continental ship
Of war, the Ranger, Is guns, Capt John
Paul Jones commander, weighed anchor
and sailed out of Portsmouth harbor.
1t went out on that gallant cruise on
the English coast, in which it met and
captured the English war vessel, the
Drake, of, superior force, both of men
and guns. The Ranger was built IN
New Hampshire harber, by New
Hampshire mechanic, and sailed from a
New Hampshire harbor. 1t was man
ned by crew Of the Piscataqua, and
largely by hardy mariners from this
town. Ezra Green, the surgeon who
ministered to the wounded In that
bloody sea fght, was citizen of Dover,
whom YOU and remember as he walk
ed the streets an old man In cur boy
hood, who sleeps in this historic ground;
and its young commander of marine,
killed in action, was Samuel Wallings
ford, of the Rollinsford part of ancient
Dover. Why do l call your attention
to the fact that Dover men were part
of the crew of the brave Paul Jones :
Because on the very day on which
Jones was assigned to that vessel Con-
gress adopted the flag Of the Stars and
Stripes, the history tells US that when
the Ranger went ont of Portsmouth,
harbor, for the first time our national
flag f1oated upon the breeze. On the
4th of February, IT'S, it received a
salue from French admiral, undoubt-
edly, as one of the Rangers officers
wrote that day, 'The first salute ever
paid the American flag" Men Of our
own town and of our own blood manned
the vessel which bore for the first time
in history the Stars and Stripes, which
thenceforth went in the career Of ma
tional achievement until it became hon
ored and feared throughout the world.
And never have you or those departed
been dastards when the henor Of that
flag demanded your service.

coon ADVICE.


The Ha,ckeys gives this good advice
to the young man Of the period: Re
member, son, that the world is older
than you are. by several years; that for
thousands Of years it has been so full
of smarter and better young men than
yourself, that their feet stick on the dor
mer windows that when they died the
world went whirling on, and not one
man in ten millions went to the funeral
or even heard of the death. Be as
smart as you can, of conrse. Know as
much as you can without blowing the
packing out of your cylinder heads, shed
the light of your wisdom abroad in the
world, and don't dazzle people with it.
And don't imagine thing is so simply
because you say it is. Don't be sorry
for your father because he knows so
much less than you do; remember the
reply of Dr. Wayland to the student of
Brown University who said it was an
easy enough thing to make proverbs
such as Solomon wrote: "Make a few, +"
tersely replied the old man. And we
never heard that the young man made
any. Not more than two or three, any
howl The world has great need Of young
men, bat no greater need than the young
men have of it. Your clothes fit you
better than your fathers fit him; they
cost more money they are more sty-
lish; your mustache is neater; the cut
of your hair is better, and you are
prettier, oh, far prettier than ''pa. y
But, young man, the old gentleman gets
the biggest salary, and is homely,
scrambling signature on the business
end Of check viii drain more money
out of the bank in five minutes than
you could get with a ream of paper and
a copperplate signature in six months.
Young men are useful, son, and they
are ornamental, and we love them, and
we couldn't engineer a picnic successful.
ly without them. But they are no
novelties, son. Oh, no, nothing Of the
kind. They have been here before.
Don't be so modest as to shut yourself
clear out, but don't be 50 fresh that
you will have to be put away in the

afraid that your merit viii not be dis
covered. People all over the world are
hunting for you, and if you are worth

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 7, 1870.


To The Editor of the National ReDnJGcan.
SIR: l attended the Democratic meeting
held on Friday evening at Wllard's, and was
treated to the usual dose of abuse heapcd by
Democratic stump.speakcrs generally upon the
Republican party, aud the broad assertion that
Ohio would be carried by $4,000 majority for
Ewing, and similar bombastic assertions.
But the Object of this communication is to
call your attention to the remarks of the ex-
Union Governor of North Carolina, Senator
Vance, the gentleman who is reported to have
said in one of his addresses, eff he had his
way, he would fill hell so fulLof Yankees that
their legs would stick out of the windows"
This high-toned advocate of the black flag
takes this public opportunity TO proclaim him
self "an unrcpentant rebel" This man, now
occupying the position of United States Scna-
tor publically acknowledged being himself a
traitor to his country and boasting of his con-
tinued hatred of his Government, is too much
for a loyal North TO swallow at one dose.
1t is certainly an insult to the State he rep
resents to the honorable body of which he is
member, and to loyal, peace-oving people
generally. Holding the same sentiments he
did during the war, can it be possible that a
man so stepped in treason is to occupy the po-
stiOn of Senator of the Uuited States and en-
act laws for the government of 100000 Union
soldiers and the great mass of the people North
and South? =?
What would Thad Stevens and Ben Wade
have thought Of such condition of things
And these gentlemen are constantly crying oul
against THE REPUBLICAN for waving what
they call "thc bloody shirt" Is itnot the duty
of every loyal man TO wave n bloody shirt and
keep it in the breeze rs long rs the South in
sist upon adding insult to injury by sending
such men to I'll the highest position under thi
Republic? BOY IN BLUE.

TIE VOICE OF WINCHEsTER.

We have already announced the fact, as
received by Associated Press dispatch, that
Senator MORGAN, of Alabama, made an adj
dress at Winchester, Va, on Friday last,
upon the occasion of decorating the graves
of the rebels who are buried at that point.
Our report, and we are inclined to credit its
correctness, was made on the spot, and from
the utterances of his Grafton ns they fell from
his lips upon the ears of his auditors, We
have seen another report of his speech,
which differs widely in sentiment and eX-
preston from the remarks which appear
in the Associated Press reports as published
here, in New York, and elsewhere. The'report
furnished by him, and published in the
Confederate organ in this city had been
materially revised and stripped of the
blatant treason which marks the press
reports 1t has been dOctOred for the
North, while the address was made for
the South, and TO keep alive the fires of
treason and rebellion that made such
an address possible at this time
anywhere In reciting the causes Of the
war which he was celebrating as reported
by the Associated Press, he charged all the
blame and responsibility of that uniortu-
nate encounter upon the Matchmaking
that section the aggressive party and really
the rebels of the occasion, He informed
his auditors that " the South had no option
"but to fight" In other words, because
the United States held Fort Sumter, the
rebels had no option but to fire upon the
flag of the nation and batter down the
walls of the fertilization over which it
lloated, and which was manned and de-
Tended by United States troops. OF course
not. 1t was the fault of the United States
that the old flag which always resents IN
insult, did not surrender to rebellion upon
its firing its first shot against the national
integrity. OF course the Government was
at fault for defending its Union, its flag
and its national identity, whenever assailcd
whether by domestic or foreign foes. When
States assumed 10 secede and the integrity
of the Union WAS assailed, according 10
General MoRGANs ethics, the Government
should have permitted them to go in peace
aud leave broken Republic for the national
inheritance. TO oppose national dismem-
