U,„un has placed himself fair and square upon the record, favorat'lo to a rosoit to arms, if necessary to destroy tlio uriCon etitutionul Governments in the South, and to restore the sovereignty ot the Stales. The history of the party of which Gen Okant is the standard benro", certainly will justify the country in tlio opinion, that lie " ill not nt alive the intr ealo affairs of llm naii m in accordance with the b achings of tho fathers.[for his party has totally disregarded almost every clause of the Constitution, already sub - stituted n despotism in the South for the free government of the past, disfranchis ed the citizen, disregarded every right ol the people, made a mockery ol justice and despoiled ns of our property. And as ‘revolutions never go backward,” it is reasonable to suppose that the party which has thus siilietituted senif-dospo ’ tisni for Republicanism, will not cheek ils “Protfcss,'' until its chosen chief i proclaimed a Monarch, In such event, are there any so blindly sanguine, as to suppose that the impulsive chivalry of America the million whose hearts revolt at injustice and base oppression, and prize the heritage of the patriots of a by gone age—will not raise the startling cry, “To Arms’!'’ delege the land with blood, and reassert the principles id tho Constitution ? If there are any such they certainly do not know or appreciate tho American people. If Skyhook is elected, (and he will be by an overwhelming majority,) we have mi fears of revolution, Tlio leaders ol the Radical party may Limber and fret, and appeal to the base passions of the masses; but the opposition will be so overwhelming- the rebuke ho positive— tho true condition made so visible—that truth and patriotism will usurp their sway, and but few lie found so debased, so lost to reason and so defiant, as to join the black standard of tho revolu tionists. \\ T e entertain a religions be lief, that upon the election of Seymour and triumph of Democracy, (notwith standing) ibc voice of lb.AiR is that of revolution), the country wilj not only be saved tho humiliation of a despotism, the horrors of revolution, but that peace, hap ; piaess and prosperity will abound, from tho waters of the St. Lrivrenei: to the Rio Grande—from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Therefore, a calm'survey of tho field must convince the discriminating mind, that the election of Gen. Grant will en courage his party to the commission of further and broader inroads upon the Constitution the total subversion of lib t rty, tbo inauguration of a monarchal government, and finally plunge America into a disastrous, blighting, bloody war. On the contrary, the success ot Seymour, by a decided majority, will allay all rx citement, disarm opposition, cause the masses to respect the voice of the nation n store confidence, renew] prosperity, establish peace, reassert the principles of the Constitution, forever guarantee liberty, and bind together the broken fragments of the Union in harmony and contentment. ]u addition to this much coveted de sideratum, if the Democracy obtain pow er in the governe . ut, they will reduce the tariff on all yen eat. and ink and wear. They will abolisli ten thousand offices and turn out. the office holders—and, thereby save millions of property to a tax ridden people, ;■ , They will restore the Union, and bid the negroes of the Smith support them - selves, by raising Ce( ton and 'sugar, and the people of the North, will tatise pro-.t dnee to feed them. They will pay tho public debt in the | arne euireney the government pays tlio : people, and the same we pay each other, j and thus save millions of taxation. If they pay the rich in gold, they will j pay the poor in gold if they pay the I t filing millions in paper money, they will | pay the plethoric bondholders in the! same currency. They will protect labor from tho on-; croachment es capital. They will leave each Utah: to govern \ itself, limited only by the Federal Con j slitutioii. They will reduce the army in tlie South and send them to the plains to protect j the frontier from the depredations of In dians. They will restore commerce, peace - and good will between the North and South, Fast and West. They will be instrumental in reducing taxes, both State and National. They will reduce the army of office holders, a fid release you from taxation Ip suppoi I them. They will enact laws inside, and not outside the Constitution. They will restore peace at home nml maintain your honor abroad. They will'inaugurate moderation, or der and good will, instead of hate and ill will, as now taught by Jacobin poli ticians. They will give equal rights to all and grant exclusive privileges to none. They will substitute calm, dignified statesmanship for mud, boisterous funuti eisin. They will make pets no longer ot ne groes at the expense of the whites They will restore to Americans a white man's government. Wliy Ave Oppose Negro Suffrage. 11 is frequently asserted in journals North, that the sole reason for the op position of negro suffrage South is “pre judice.” Tin's is entirety a mistake, and all such assertions can ho silenced hy stnl herb ficts. Is it true that intelli gence and enlightenment constitute tho | sheet anchor of all free governments, or I can ignorance be relied on in tho-difficiilt work of governing a great people in the spirit of our free institutions? If ignorance is'the equal of intelligence in a matter so vitally affect ing the public weal, how greatly mistaken were the sages and patriots who laid the foundations of our government on the solid basis of human enlightenment 1 If there lias been any oh ■ which in the past, all have, agreed it is that no free government can endure, unless it be upheld by an in tel— li :cnt constituency. Whatever classes, therefore, fall below a reasonable stan dard of intelligence, it haa always been thought necessary to keep away from the ballot-box. Unfortunately, this ostra cism has not. been sufficiently great- lor time lias vindicated the policy of an ed ! wcut’onal qualification for electors. Hut as some guarantee for an intelligent b an chine the American people have never pn trusted tim ballot to young men under t wenty one years of age, however in telligent., nor to the wives and daughters' of the land. When a vigilance such as this has been shown in guarding the pu rit V of the ballot, box, how un just if. is to charge upon the Southern people, that it is prejudice on their part, which makes them oppose surrendering to our late slaves our political destinies. A volun tary enliunchiseinenl rs the negro is a grave insult to the noble women of the land- As an able Southern writer has well said, there is no prejudice in the j case: it is simply a measure of precau- tion—of absolute safety. The tact of the notorious inferiority of the negro to the white race, need not be enlarged upon as the ground for exclusion. “In the j long lapse of ages, not only has the no- I gro not been able to frame a bee Pe in j meet, but he has lacked the requisite skill and wisdom to administer any gov ernment of laws at all.’’ lie his been unable to produce any, tlio rudest, writ ten language, much less institute or con duct a civil government. And yet there are those among us, who are willing j to enfranchise the negro and disfranchise the whites ! No, indeed, it is not pro- i jndioe tlmt bids the South oppose negro suffrage j but it is a knowledge of the incapacity of the race to handle tho bal lot intelligently. R.it'iciu-m.—-The Atlanta New Era says the ‘‘Radical Republicans and Rad ical Democrats, ij'lct alone, will overrun and destroy the last vestige ol peace and prosperity in the country. The people ought to crush them out of existence.”— These are words if troth and soberness and wo call upon too reflecting, peace loving people of Georgia, to give them heed, and act in such manner as will forever destroy the power of extremist of every party. They have already ru ined and disgraced the South, and if con tinued, or placed in power, will bring a bont another war. Tennessee and Civil War. IV , pprc.s-.i and, iiceih sed Tennessee ! Site has drank to the dregs the cup of humiliation, and now that oppression has become unendurable, is about to draw tlio sword to right her wrongs. II a human devil, a fiend incarnate, was ever permitted to walk this green earth and blight, and curse by hi.- prisoner , the children of men, tie certainly is rep resented in the depraved and infamous person of ox-Fnrson ibiow.Nt.ovv, who lords it over the peace loving, but des pairing citizens of Tennessee. This vile, bad man, has assembled his servile Leg islature in extra session and suit in a message for its consideration, in which, oft' r Hefting forth that the ‘‘rebels and Ku Kkix” are mining to overthrow his Hate government, and defeat the Radi cals in the national election, calls upon the Legislature to empower him to order out and arm the militia foi active service. And in inference to the character ot warfare, he proposes to wage, he r< commends that “these organ izi-d bands •of assasslus and robbers (Ku K lux) he declared out linen by rpeeud. legislation, and punixhed with death whei e ever found Thernilitia referred leby Gov. Brown low, consists of the negro population and a fewbundred depraved white men ; und it is this ignorant and beastly crew, the pious parson asks the Legislature to permit him to turn loose, with license to murder and rob, upon the unarmed and defenceless people of the State. Os course the action of the Oovcrnoi has startled and highly incensed the peo ple and for sell defence they are organiz ing military associations, so as to be ready lor mutual protection in the event the Governor attempts to enforce his policy. The “signs of the times” platily fore: shadow a. collision between the people and the militia, and the strife once com menced, the struggle will be general, and blood flovv freely. The responsibility lor aucli a conflict will rest with the infn mous Bf.ow'.nu w and his truckling and servile Legislature, and upon their heads should be visited speedy and terrible vengeance.

Secret Political Associations. The Savannah Jhpubliran says lhat the day is not far distant, “when every intelligent colored man will see the great injustice he is inflicting upon his own race, as well as that of the white, hy sanctioning secret political cabals.” You are right friend Hayes. Secret /m’itical associations have always been condemn ed by the Democratic party, as inimical to the welfare of the country: it was the main objection to “Know-Notbingisui” in 1855, and lias ever commanded the de termined opposition of true.
