SENATOR VOORHEES,.

1t is so seldom we have an oppor-
portunity of quoting from the writing
or speeches of prominent democrats
anything..of patriotic character, that
it affords US special pleasure to give
our readers the following from speech
of Senator Voorhees, of Indiana. We
must confess at first we took it as a
mistake or burlesque, but it is fact
nevertheless. the senator did say it. At
least we find it so published in our
democratic exchanges. Had repub-
lican SO spoken (beiore election) it
would have been rated as waving the
bloody shirt for political effect. Here
is what VOORHEES, says, and we say good,
all honor for the sentiment. late as 1t is:
Sir. the object of this bill seems to be
to cast suspicion on all pension claims.
Like the pamphlets and letters of the
Commissioner, it appears to be saturat-
ed with the idea that pensioner is al
ways ready and willing to commit
fraud on the Government, and that a
pension. when he gets it. is a gratuity.
i DENY this assumption from beginning
to end. The pensioners and applicants
for pensions are as honest as other men,
and have given quite as much evidence
of friendship for the Government as
those who asperse them. Nor do l re-
gard the payment of his pension as a
charity: 1t is payment of a debt. A
penSioner is creditor, not a pauper.
When the Government pays him his
pension it does not bestow aims: it dis
charges an honest obligation. 1t is the
fullfllment of contract between the
and the soldier. The sol
lier has complied with his part of the
contract on the fields of war in hard
'hips, WEAKNESS, and pain. His wounds
Ire his vouchers and such evidence is
sufficient for me. Others may take
are of the illustrious and the unfortu-
late. They may even create new Off
,ers for them and grant them high
titles. but while have the
lonor to represent State upon this
loor | shall keep the contract with the
torn. and shattered of the
ank and file.

DAwNING REASON.

Evidences are constantly accumula-
ting that the south is preparing to en-
ter a now era in her social, industrial
and political affairs. Such a change
as will lift that section out of the old
ruts and prejudices born Of slavery and
the war, will be heartily welcomed by
svery patriotic citizen of our common
country.
Recent dispatches say that the inde-
pendent or peoples movement IN Mis-
sippi was assuming formidable proper
tons. The results of recent confer
ence of representative men of various
shades of opinion, but who united in
opposition to the intolerant and pro-
scriptive democracy of the state, and
their methods, of the most encouraging
character. Sensible citizens are begin
ming to..realize the fact that the Iegiti-
mate fruits Of bull-dozing, ballot-box
stuffing and all manner of election
frauds are Generalization and inevlta-
bic disaster to the commonwealth.
One of the best informed and most sa-
gacious residents of the state writes
from Jackson: The political situa-
tion in Mississippi is indicative of in
teresting and important events. The
In favor of a peoples ticket
is going forward with as much rspidity
as is compatible with prudent engineer

it strength, and unless some mis-man-
agement checks its progressit it will ac-

As to who will be on the
ticket no one can now tell, further

Senator Vest, in opposing the plac-
ing of Gen. Grant on the retired list of
the army, told the Republicans that
they should take care Of their own
dead and wounded as the Democrats
had done with theirs. Fitz John Por-
ter, being one of the wounded, the
Democratic senate had passed bill for
his relief. A few days ago the lower
house, by a vote of ia to III, refused
to consider this senate bill, which bur-
les it not only for this session, but
probably forever. The new house will
be Republican, and of course it will do
nothing for the relief of Senator Vests
wounded or dead friends. 1t may be
too bad-but what is sauce for the
goose is also sauce for the gander
John must look to some other source
to have his fits (Fitz) relieved and Por-
ter supplied. Canton News.
