We Are forced to note tlto action of
tin: I'Vrida and Alabama bo-ch1Io<1 leg-

toral vote of their respect ivo Stater.
DelihernU'ly and for unholy and par
tisan ends, they have wn-nU-d from the
people the right of self-government, ami
proclaimed in ndvnnco, Radical suprem
acy for the next four years. The mon
ster of tyranny and revolution is now
unveiled, nnd stand* forth in all its hid
eous and loiitlmoine proportions.
Briefly stated, the political situation
in these Slates may bo thus described :
In defiance of the will of the people and
immemorial usage, tho manner of select
ing their national rulers has boeu
changed, Mid tlic direct voice of tho
masses stifled by tho Mkmoun device.—
True there is somo constitutional ground
fur this innovation, always voluntarily
exorcised in Booth Carolina. Hut
though this may Iw correct in tho ol»-
stract, yet ns applied hi the present in
stances, it is a Inigo fraud, dumnablu
and opproshivo, aud without the slight
est color of justice.
Tho candidates to bo passed upon,
havo boon selected and plncod in nomi
nation, long since the elect inn of those
who nssumo to bo tho oxjioiients of tho
popular will.
No J,egiwlntur« has been chosen even
according to tho Radical and military
programme, with its ingeniously con
trivod ballot boxes, having secret springs
and joints whereby tickets could bo ad
ded or tjuctcd at pleasure, (an ascer
tained fact), rineo tho numos of Ulysses
Grunt nnd Horatio Seymour havo been
presented for the Chief Magistracy of
tho nation. The peoplo therefore havo
us yot had do yoiev as to the fitness or
unfitness of those aspirants for the high
dignity in queatiun. Yet those bogus
ueeetn Wages yclopt Htnto Legislatures,
thus constitut'd, assume to forestall and
fttniotmro the oftoiioii# and son runouts of
milliona of iulolligeiit while freemen.
Any l.ogisluturo chosen upon othor
und foreign issues, hnrty year* ago
would havo an equal right thus to nrro-
gulu to itself tho expression of tho ex
fating feeling of the country,
Tho case of South Carolina furnishes
really no pnrullul or excuse for this
highlianded usurpation of hii utmciupu
lous faction. Her method of selecting
electors, based upon tho notion of
Legislature, chosen after a full canvass
of tho claims and principles of tho con
tending parlies, has been latterly de
nounced in nil Radical circles, und was
spooially prohibited in tho Into (todicul
uud negro Constitution, which bus been
adopted and is now in operation.
Thu present attempt therefore to hind
bund und foot, and fasten a hateful dy
nasty upon the tiouthern peoplo for tho
next Tour years, nmt be reeieted eren nt
the camton'e mouth and bayonet'* point.
In this instance, nt lonst, rebellion cun
ho charged upon our enemios only.—
Ours is the cause of the Union nnd the
maintenance of tbu laws.
Wlint then should bo our immediate
action ii. the premises? Wo answer,
disregard and scorn these revolutionary
proceeding* wherever sttomptod by any
Statu Legislature. Lot regular oli'oto-
ml tickets be noniiunted and voted Up

grand national issue, involving tho liber

acceptance of the Democratic nomina

Utica, August 4, 1868.
GxvTr.Xvxs : When in tint city of
New York, on the 11th of July, in the
presence of a vast multitude, on behalf
of the National Democratic Convention,
you tendered to me its unanimous nomi
nation :n their candidate for the office of
President of the United Htatea. I sta
ted that I had “no Words adequate to
express my gratitude for the good will
und kiiidntM which that body had
shown to me. Its nomination was un
sought nnd unexpected. It was my
ambition to lake nn active part, from
which I «m now excluded, in the great
struggle going on lor the restoration of
good government,_pf peace and prosper
ity to our country. Hut I have been
caught up by the overwhelming tide
which is bearing us on to n great poli
tical change, nnd I find myself unable to
resist its pressure.
You havo also given me a copy of the
resolutions put forth by the Convention,
showing its position upon all the great
qdcsllofis which RoW Agitate the coun

Convention, I atn familiar with their

in accord with my views nnd I stand
upon them in the contest upon which
wo nro now entering, and I shall strive
to carry them out in future, wherever 1
may ho placed, in political or private
life.
I then stated that I would semi you
these words of acceptance in u letter an
is ths customary form. 1 sec no reason,
upon reflection, to change or quulify tho
terms of my uppruvnl of the resolutions
of the Convention, t have delayed the

for the purpose of seoiug what light the
action of Congress would throw upon

It is in those spheres it should be taught

a strong feeling in favor of that line of
action which shall restore order nnd con
fidence, and sliull lift off the burdens
which now binder and vex the industry
of the country. Yet, nt this moment,
those in power have thrown into the
Senate chambers and Congressional balls
new elements of discord aad violence.
Men have been admitted ns Represen
tatives of • »mo of the Southern States
with ths declaration iq*on their lip* that
they cannot live iu the Status they claim
to represent n ithout military protection.
These nun arc to mako laws Cor tho
North ns well as tlic South ; theso men
who a few days since wero seeking as
suppliants that Congress would give
them power within their respective
States, are to dny the controllers of the
action of those bodies. Entering them
with minds filled with this question, they
demand that Congress shall look upon
tho States from which they cons as in
a condition of civil war ; that tho ma
jority of their population, embracing
their intelhgeic, shall be treated as
public enemies ; that military forces
shall bo kept up at the cost of the peo
ple of tlic North, aud that there shall lie
no peace and orda* at the South save
that which is made by arbitrary jmwer.
Every intelligent man knows that they
not only owo their present positions to
disorder, but that every motive f-»r p«-
petuuting il springs from the love of
power and gain. A deeire for ven
geance prompts them to keep the South
in anarchy. While that exists they are
independent of tho wil's or wishes of
tlu-ir fvllow-titirens. While confusion
J reigns they are dispensers of the profits
fiment.
lntionship which the country desires I
am sure* the best men of the Republican
party deplore ns deeply as I d*>, tin-
spirit of violen o shown by those recent
ly admitted to seats in Congress from
the Southern States. The condition of
civil war which they contemplate, must
be abhorrent to every rigid thinking
man.

I have no mere perenfM) wwhes'which
mislead my judgim-iil in regard to the
pewling election. No man who hns
weighed and measured the duties of
the office of I'resident of the United
BlatsD, can fail to l»e impressed with the
cares and toils of him who is to meet
its demands. It is not merely to float
with popular currents without a policy
or a purpose. On the contrary, while
our Conalitution g’vesjiist weight to the
public will, its dutinguiahing feature is
that it soeks to protect the rights of mi
norities. It* greatest glory is that it
pots restraints upon [tower. It gives
force and form to thoee maxims and
principles of civil libeity for which the
martyrs of freedom have struggled
through agee. It declares tho right, of
people to oe secure in their psmons,
houses and papers against anwurruuU-
Ue search and seixure; that “CongTkeR
shall make no lav respecting the estab
lishment of religion or the free exercise
thereof, or abridging the freedom uf
speech or of the press,or the right of the
people to petition for redress of griev
unccr” It secures "the right of a speedy
aud public trial by an impartial jury."
