FOR VICE PRESIDENT: Schuyler Colfax, OF INDIANA. FOR THE CAMPAIGN. • THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, OF AUGUSTA, GA. SUBSCRIBE FOR IT. The present Presidential campaign in volves more momentous consequences than any previous political contest in the history of the country. The people of Georgia are deeply interested in the result, ami will • therefore, look forward to the developments of the campaign with increasing interest. The dissemination of reliable news, and of sound constitutional views on the important issues of the day are essential to the success of the Republican parly. To supply iu a measure this need, we will mail The National Rei’UULican fur any four months prior to January 1, 1869, at tbe low rate of $1.50. We appeal to the old supporters of the Republican to aid us in extending its circulation. Wo pledge ourselves to devote all our energy and ability to the success of the great cause in which the Union Repub lican Party Is embarked; and to spare neither labor nor expense in making Tut National Republican a useful and reliable newspu[>er. Specimen copies sent free to any address THE NEW REBELLION. There is no mistaking tlic animus of the rebels in the South, on the subject of Blair’s rebellion. The general clamor of applause and the evident intensity of ex - citement underlying it, us though, they were on the verge of great deeds, is neither disguised nor concealed, but isopeuly and shamelessly paraded in the columns of Southern democratic orgtfn*. Such influ ential papers as the New Orleans Timet and Crescent, the Richmond Etrnniner and En quirer, and the Mobile Rcq'ider scatter abroad the poison of treason in every num ber. The flippant manner in which they habitually refer to loyal papers ns ‘'incen diary sheets,” and to loyal men as ‘’scala wag*,’’ •‘carpet-baggers,’’ “tniscegenating scoundrels,” etc., is but a minor evidence of the bitterness which cortodes the heart of unsuccessful treason. But the advice freely tendered to the cx-rcbcls ns to their course toward loyal men, the palliative manner of speaking of such outrages as can not be decently ignored, and the per sistent contempt of the law and of legisla tors, is of a weightier character, tending constantly to breed and fosterinstihordina ■ tion and ,rcl>ellioii. Almost with one voice, these videttes of tbe new tebellion have echoed anti endorsed the Blaui programme, as trimmed, revised and made “practicable” by Blair's peers, Hampton, Preston, Forrest, et id omue qeiiun. It la evidently Ixflicved in the South that the cowardly fire-in-the rear “pence Democrats” of the North mean tight. The rebels have forgotten how these same fel lows urged them on with delusive promises of support, a few years ago, and then fled to Canada. They believe that the many faced presentation of that remarkable Democratic hybridism, treacherous Sey mour and blatant Blair, with Pendleton in the background, will .sweep the North like a furious storm at the equinox; they think that revolution will carry the South and Southwest, repudiation the Northwest, and the East will be led by that queer •interpretation’’ of the platform under which Chase cnuld "have accepted the nomination, with the shrewd manipulation of the Albffhy regency and the substantial aid of Wall street. With a majority of the electoral Vote from the North, they count the rebel vote of the South under the Johnson constitutions of '65, quietly ignoring the rfr /rtefe governments, and have Seymour and lllair already, in imagination, enthroned at Washington, Congress humbled and subservient at their feet, and “the d—d niggers" fast iu the toils of the infamous apprenticeship laws of Johnson’s Legislatures, in a condition ten fold ’worse than slavery, wiuse than death. This is no fancy sketch, no bugbear,of a diseased imagination. The scheme is ripe, the thin cloak of pretended submission to the victorious power of tbe nation is cast off, and even tbe most minute details arc agreed upon and published. It is well that it is so. If we must again thco armed treason, we can not too soon appreciate tbe facts and get ready. Forewarned is fore armed. ’ With the first blast of the rebej trumpet thia nation will cast off its incre dulity and resign its rest after battle, put on the strong sword of national justice, and sweep these traitors from the face of the earth. There will be no dallying with treason this time. There will be no coax ing and no long delays in the punishment of the most gigantic crime of modern days—the crime of conspiracy against the peace and prosperity of thirty millions of freemen. • • The Columbus Gruis rather overdoes the business of accounting l«r Seymoch’s nomi nation. According to that authority, it was to prevent the heretical and fatal nomina tion of Chase that Seymour was taken, just as Seymour and the New YorkCrs were going to do that business. Seymour was 1 for Ceas*. They preferred Chase at second I hand rather than in the “original package. r ‘ A RARE COMBINATION. The Democratic ticket, contrary to usual custom, seems to lie weak just where it was expected to be strong. Seymour's nomination, made because it was thought New York could Ire carried, has aroused Republicans tb very strong hopes of carry ing that State, aud his unpopularity at the East is so great that men arc found in every Eastern town who declare that they are Democrats but can not go for Sey mour. Names of such men arc published in some Eastern papers, and among them are some of local prominence. In general terms, Seymour's Copperhead record, in stead of strengthening the party at the East where he is best known, weakens it, and drives over to Republicans -some who have voted for the Democrats in other elections. Blair, again, was nominated iu a faint hope that he might do some thing for the ticket at the West. But need we say that he only hurts it there ? Every Radical in Missouri feels the more certain of victory, now that Blair is the I>emocratic candidate. With some Eastern man for Vice President, the Democrats would have polled their full vote, though they would have gained nothing. With Blair, they gain nothing because he is too well known to loyal and true men. while his name is peculiarly distasteful both to former rebels and old Democrats. But Blair has this to boast of: his letter damages the ticket all over the country ; Seymour's record hurts it mainly where he is well known. '■*• • -<*•— ALASKA. The Alaska question is settled at last, by the passage of a bill appropriating the money for the purchase. Our flag and our laws, revenue laws inchided, are ex tended over a long strip of territory now almost uninhabited and likely to remain so. There is fine timber along the coast, which will be of use in shiji-bqilding, and the fisheries arc said to be valuable. But we have never yet been able to discover what there is in the territory purchased to make it worth seven millions in gold. The Senate ought to know, for it ratified the treaty, and Mr. Seward ought to know, for he elaborately advocated its ratifica tion ; but the country docs not know, and the purchase of the national ice-house is still regarded as a pretty questionable speculation. Nevertheless, when the treaty hail once been ratified by tbe Senate, it would have been quite as credit able to our government if Congress had voted the needed appropriation without delay, leaving the question of the pro priety of such c treaty for separate dis cussion. If the Senate had made a mistake, it would have been better to pass it over quietly than to raise the ques tion for consideration of foreign powers whether a treaty with the United States, made and ratified according to our Con stitution, is in reality, worth anything. * THE REBEL FLAG. It is still in existence, and we may expect, under the inspiring influences vouchsafed by Democratic promises of success, to see it soon undulating in the breekea of heaven in the South. There was a public meeting last Saturday evening in Charleston, South Carolina, and we are told that the band played “Dixie,” and other inspiring Southern airs, and there, was much enthusiasm. Wade Hampton was called out. He spoke in complimentary words of the chivalry of Charleston, and he told the crowd that “he had preserved the flag from the general wreck, and had cher ished it, and he intended to keep it until they had a State again.” His speech was received with tumultuous applause. ’This docs not look much like accepting tbe situation ; but it does look like the Inaugu ration o( another rebellion when Seymour and Blair shall be elected. The rebels mean this time a war not out side but inside of the Union, aud they con fidently rely npon the Democratic party to aid them in the overthrow of the government by violence. The bitterness of the brevet*Democratic Conservative war meh prompts them to dis regard the love of kindred, the endearing relations of social life, and the sacred ties of church fellowship. .Can any who belinvbS Ulis is a free country, aud that all men are entitled to entertain and express their politi cal opinions, vote for such men ? Can Christian men endorse this course ? The Democratic party proposes to run the Presidential race with a three-legged hotse. Seymour is the “bloated bondholders” can didate, Blair is the candidate of the revolu tionists- Their platform is the candidate of thh repudiationists. The other day au old soldier, who lost au arm, said : “1 am waiting to sec it the people of this country are going to elect Horatio Seymour, and, if they do, 1 will swear that 1 lost my arm in a threshing machine, not in defence of my country.” ■ ■ te* —— Qomtenihux of Knowledge.—What a compendium of human knowledge is this indispensable work—Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary, Illustrated.

FRANKLIN COUNTY GRANT CLUB. The following resolutions were adopted at the Grant Club of Franklin county, Georgia, on the 18th day of July, 1868 : Whereas, In our judgment, the peace and prosperity of not only the State of Georgia, but of the United StateE of Amer ica, depend in a great measure upon the success of the Republican party in the Presidential election to be held in the month of November, 1868, and that we believe the Democratic party as now organized is wielding, or attempting to wield tin undue influence over the interest of the working men of Georgia, both white anil colored, and that the principles of said party are destructive to good govern ment and to the welfare of the laboring masses; and Whereas, The Democratic party arc forming clubs throughout the South, and using every means both fair and foul to entrap the freedmen (and every honest laboring class of people, no matter what may be their color) into the adoption of their mad and revolutionary principles; and Whereas, we recognize in the Democratic platform a denial of the right of suffrage to the colored people —a right which they now enjoy and which was conferred upon them by a wise and magnanimous Coftgress, and Whereas, in our judgment the vote of tlie colored people is necessary for the protec tion of loyal white men of the South as well as their own race. Therefore be it Resolced, That we endorse the principles set forth in the Chicago platform. Resolved, That we enjoin upon ourselves the duty of enlightening the people, without regard to race or color, upon the great issue now before them. Resolved, That wo do recognize in the person and character of General Grant and the Honorable Schuyler Colfax that deep devotion and fidelity to the principles of Constitutional liberty. Resolved, 'l’hat we do pledge ourselves to the support of Grant and Colfax in their election to the offices of President and Vice President of the United States in November, 1868, believing them to be the very best men for the times. Reeoleed, That we heartily congratulate the members of the Chicago Convention upon their calm and creditable deliberation, which characterized the party, and upon their ex traordinary wisdom in selecting candidates for President and Vice President ot the United States.

Mr. Rice mOvcd to reconsider the action of the House, on yesterday, in making addi tions to the Standing Committee. The motion to reconsider was lost. The Speaker held that it was a violation of tbe rules of the House to make additions to Standing Committees; hence the action of the House was null and void. Mr. Maull moved to reconsider the action of the House, on yesterday, in referring to the Committee on Privileges and Elections the resolution of Mr. Gullatt, in relation to one Chatters. A considerable discussion arose on this motion, during which the fact was elicited that the resolution wits not so referred, as appeared on the journal, but was laid on the table ; after which the motion to reconsider was withdrawn. A motion was made to adjourn to 10 o’clock on Monday. Lost.

The House resumed the consideration of the unfinished business of yesterday, the same being the substitute of the Senate for the rcsoliitiort Os the House suspending sales under levies and executions until the General Assembly shall take action on the relief measure's, and the amendment thereto proposed by Mr. Turnipseod. Mr. Turner being entitled to the floor, resumed his speech in opposition to’ relief in any shape. . Mr. Phillips followed, maintaining that the resolution could not have the effect of law, and hence would not be binding, if adopted. Mr. O’Neal, of Lowndes, proposed to amend by-inserting the following addition to the Senate’s sub.-utute; “Until the General Assembly shall have acted or refused to act, or adjourned.” Mr. O'Neal made an able and eloquent appeal in favor of the adoption of some measure of relief to the people. The question being called, upon the adop tion of the amendment of Mr. O’Neal, the yea? and uuys were demanded, and resulted yeas 55, nays 62./; So the amendmenl was lost. The vote was then taken on the amend ment oi Mr. Turnipseed, the ygas and nays were demanded, and resulted yeas 59, nays 59.
