this county, has declared his intention to

publican ticket throughout, and to stump

WASHINGTON, August 9.-Senator Butler

thus denounced the Independent Demo.

II you have grievances here publish
them in the newspapers, and reterthem
to the people, the soyereigns OF us all.
They have the power aud the means, and
the inclination, too, to correct whatever
evils there may be in the Democratic party.
But for heavens sake, for the sake Of the

and do as you are certain TO do in the end.

gain to DRIFT into the Radical party. Look
at Longstreetl He was begged and i'm.
plored not toypenevere in his course, but
he drifted on and on, and foundered
deeper and deeper into the mire, until he
landed hard and fast into the Republican
slough. Aud what has he gained? Scorn,
ostracism, odium, ill.will, worse than all,
the contempt OF the men who stood by
him under the shower OF death and de-
struction. He forfeited the opinion Of all
honest men for the sake OF an office, aud he
began by being an independent.
This appeal made TO colored as well as
whites. Good government is as essential
to them as to the whites. The Republican
party at the North Is different from the
Republican party at the South. AT the
North incorruptible, honest, yirtuous, in
telligent men are to be found in its ranks.
It is not SO in the South. Here 1t has its
strength, its power, its very existence
among the ignorant colored men, who are
not capable OF governing, but whose inter-
ests are best suoserved by having other
men to govern them. Go, then, fellow
Democrats, in body to these men; reason
with them; plead with them; bring them
back into the Democratic fold il you can,
and il you cannot, then kick them into
the radical crowd, where they belong.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l0.-The Columbia

the principal speaker at reunion of ex.

He said this was no empty pageant but
a reunion OF men who, after serving four
years in war, had returned to their civic

ment they live under, make no excuse for
the past, and soorn the imputation Of trail
tor and rebel. The day was not lar distant
when the causes Of the war would be better
understood, and itslessons utilized for the
good Of all sections Of our country. The
necessities Of the country required that the
war should come. There were misunder.
standings which finally led to the North do
ing the South great wrong. The North and
South construed the Constitution from
different standpoints. African slavery
was not the main cause Of the war. Il
was only an important incident which led
the way to the discussion OF the right oil
the general government TO interfere IN the
Affairs OF the States. The Confederate
war, as well as that Of l776, was fought fol
an abstract principle, and therein they
both differed from the war Of the Rose.

CHICAGO, August 1O.-Daniel E. o'Neil,
the young man arrested and charged with
the murder Of John McNIahon, went mad
this morning. He has torn all bis clothing
into strips, and continually asserts that he
is going TO be hung. He was examined
by q physician this morning, who detect
ed no evidence OF o'Neil's shamming.
The action Of the police in this case, is
severely condemned, as great number Of
prisoners were arrested on mere suspicion
and kept close prisoners, and were not
allowed to see any OF their friends.

ExILED FROM FRANCE.

PARIS, August lO.-The FaubOurg St
German, and reactionary circles in gen.
eral, were thrown into violent commo-
ton by the news that Baron Harden
Hickey, better known as Saint Patrice,
was ordered to leave the French territory
within twenty-four hours. Baron Harden
Hickey, who is an American, long settled
here, and owns a good deal Of property in
France, is a pillar Of the little Legitimist
world Of Cotillons and corspiracies, and
passes for leader OF Legitimist opinion.

The Way Democrats Keep Their From
Uses to Union Soldiers.
WASHINGTON, August 9.-Mr. Ramsdell
prints the following comments in the Re-
public on the proposed Democratic prom.
ise not to remove Union soldiers:
Sidney Wilson; New York soldier and
schoolmate OF mine, lost both legs at
Gettysburg. Senator Fenton had him ap-
pointed doorkeeper in the Senate, q posi-
ton he could fill and did fll acceptably
for several years. When the Democrats
got possession Of the Senate Wilson was
removed from the ladies gallery and
placed at the door, where 1t was necessary
10 carry in cards to Senators. A man
with two wooden legs could not perform
the duty very acceptably, and Wilson was
moved down to the basement and set to
watching the Senators bronze stairway.
He complained that the dampness brought
great pain to him, and asked to be re-
stored to his old place. Instead Of restor-
ing him the Democrats discharged him,
and took his name from the Senate rolls.
That Is the way the. Democrats will pro
tect old soldiers. They will not discharge
them directly, but they will find some
means OF causing them TO be inefficient"
or incompetent"

A Man Stabbed aud Killed for Defending
His Wife,

PHILADELPHIA, August 1O.-Anthony
o'Donnell, who was fatally stabbed at his
residence, No. ll49 Clarion street, it is al
legged by Thomas Walker, last Saturday
night, died last evening at the Pennsyl-
vania Hospital. He is SO years Of age, is
a rag.picker, and lived in rooms at ll4s
Clarion street rented, from Thos. Walker.
On Saturday night, Walker, accompanied
by man named John Faulkner, went to
the house on Clarion street. He was
under the influence of liquor aud seemed
to be in very quarrelsome mood. They
stopped and talked little while with
John Quinton, shoemaker, who lived in
the same house. Walker soon after went
to the 0'Donnells' rooms, and was soon
engaged in quarrel with them about the
rent.
Mrs. o. Donnell remarked that they had
always paid their rent, and they feared no
trouble from Walker. At this Walker
struck the woman in the face with his fist
and knocked her down. The deceased,
who had been lying down, got up and re-
buked Walker, saying that ii was shame
for a strong man to beat an old woman
in that way. without making any reply,
Walker rushed at 0'Donnell, and stabbed
him in the shoulder either with a stiletto
or a shoemaker's knive, which penetrated
to the lung. 0'Donnell cried out that he
was stabbed, and when he turned his back
on his aSsailAnt received another stab in
the back. Walker and his friend, Faulk
ner, then ran away. 0'Donnell was taken
to the Pennsylvania Hospital, where he
died last hight; he leaves a wife and
thirteen year old daughter.
As soon as the police authorities heard
OF the affair, Seventeenth District Off iceri
Callahan and Garman were despatched II
pursuit. Walker was arrested in Della
ware county yesterday, and Faulkner wa
captured in this city. Quinton, the shoe
maker has also been arrested.
