WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 17. ’6B
00SM0P0LI TAN.
Geu. Buchanan, commander of the fifth
military satrapy, has perpetrated a bit of
political sarcasm winch future satirists of
Republican forms of government will find
hard to surpass. Well aware that the
members elect to the Louisiana Legislatuie
are scattered over two continents, from
Skowhegan to Hesse Darmstadt, he de
spairs of finding them through the ordina
ry medium of communication, and so, is
sues the following unique circular:
“ [Circular No. 10 |
“ The. post office address of the members of
the General Assembly and civil officers, whose
election was announced on the 3d inst , in Spe
cial Orders No. 131, from these headquarters,
beimr in most eases unknown, in ordyr, as far
as possible, to avoid failures in the transmis
sion of copies of that order, which is a certifi
cate of election to the members and others
elect, said copies will, in such cases, be deliv
ered only upon application in person, or in
writing, giving post office address, to this of
fice.
“ By command of Brevet Major General R.
C. Buchanan.”
The father of Mirabeau styled himself
the “Friend of Mankind," but he was, at
the same time, a monster of cruelty toward
his own flesh and blood. The carpet-bag
Legislators of Louisiana are equally ex
pert iu the grim character of jesters. They
claim to be citizens of Louisiana, but Gen.
Buchanan knows very well that their
habitations and baptismal appellations are
just as uncertain as the Irishman’s flea or
old Mirabeau’s philanthropy. Voila cir
cular No. 16.
WELT. SAID-
The Journal of Commerce does not agree
with the World in it sview of accepting
tiie status quo of Radical Reconstruction
embodied in the Omnibus Bill. It thus dis
poses of the rotten-borough system and ne
gro suffrage thereunder:
“ No law of Congress, no constitution of any
State, no amendment to the Constitution oi
the United States, is unrepcalnble. Congress
has shown mankind with what facility the most,
sacred charters, the most solemn compacts,
may be rent to pieces, where party interests re
quire it. At some time not far distant, per
haps, the Conservatives may have the supreme
power, as the Radicals now have it. It will be
their duty to revise and correct errors of Radi
cal legislation. One ot the first questions that
will come before them will he that of the re
peal of all negro suffrage enactments and pro
visions. Unqualified negro suffrage will then
have been tried upon its merits, on the large
scale. If, on the whole, it is a good thing, it
will not he molested. Until'it is a clearly ap
parent evil and nuisance, nothing can save it
front h dug sponged out of existence.”
The Journal is slightly punctilious in
giving unqualified negro suffrage the bene
.flt of a doubt— i. c., “ifit is a good thing,
it wifi not be molested.” It never was and
never will be a “ good tfffng,” attd so it
must and shall be sponged out.
THE DISFKANOHISED.
It is a sore imputation on the justice of
the God and morality party to be reminded
that while the rights of man, according to
their creed, require universal negro suffrage,
the same rights of man, obligate gross dis
franchisement of the most virtuous, wealthy
and intelligent white men. This accusa
tion causes them to sneeze with indignation
whenever it is put under their progressive
nostrils. Very recently, Senator Hen
dricks stated that 800,000 white men were
outlawed in the South. Senator Drake
denied this with some heat. Senator Hen
dricks was under the mark, that is all.—
More than 300,000 men have been excluded
from voting in the*ten territorial satrapies.
To which add 80,000 in Tennessee, 80,000 in
Missouri and 40,000 in West Virginia.—
Commenting upon this diabolical crime, the
National Intelligencer observes:
“ It is entirely within bounds to say that
over half a million of white men have been
disfranchised in this republican America by
what Mr. Wilson, of Massachusetts, would
call the * liberty-loving’ party of the coun
try—liberty in his judgment being the
license to commit any crime that has the
elements of cruelty and meanness.”
BEIGE POMEEOY.
%
Several Southern journals have accused
“ Brick” Pomeroy of being the evil-genius
of Democracy and the South. We do not
join in any such absurd charge. The occa
sional indiscretions of the LaCrosse Demo
crat can well be pardoned when its general
vigor is remembered. Pomeroy has clung
to principle when thousands, North and
South, have disgracefully abandoned it.
While, therefore, we have frequently regret
ted his unnecessary resort to indelicate lan
guage, we could not recklessly abuse a man
who is honestly blunt, and, when so many
are weary of the strife, keeps up the com
bat against , crime with unflagging intre
pidity. When Rome was sunk into a de
gradation truly Infernal, Juvenal shamed
villainy by portraying it as it was, without
disguise and without the arts of a dille
laut. Pomeroy is the American Juvenal?
The scorching verse of the Roman poet
may offend the polite ears of a a refined Re
publican of the era ’6B, just as the terrible
prose of the LaCrosse Democrat crashes
upon the sensitive tympanum of expe
diency men. But Juvenal was a power in
the past, and Pomeroy is a power in the
present.
Chief Justice Chase.— The New York
Herald and the New York 'Tribune have
nominated Chief Justice Chase as the De
mocratic candidate for the Presidency.—
Here are two potent reasons why the De
mocracy should have nothing to do with
him. - *
Heaven Be Praised.—Shellabarger,
of Reconstruction infamy, has concluded
to retire from public life. He complains of
“ failing health.” What a pity it did not
Jail daring infancy.
A SWIFT WITNESS.
Senator Yates, of Illinois, having recov
ered from llie abasement of his letter to his
constituents excusatory of drunkenness, has
charmingly non-plussed his party friends by
an exhibition of candor on the negro ques
tion. He denounces the Chicago platform 1
for its hypocrisy and taunts his associates
with cowardice in showing one face to the
negro at the North and another to the negro
at the South. He was in favoT of facing
the music and making the rule in the South
no exception in the North. In order to
check his indiscreet valor, several Senators
reminded him, in under tone, that Ohio,
Kansas and Michigan were hard to circum
vent. Nothing daunted by this thrust, he
declared that the record they made was iu
consequence of being chicken-hearted. So
hotly did he press his views, that predic
tion grew from inspiration and Illinois was
handed over to the Copperheads by 75,000
majority. This man perceives that double
dealing will overthrow Radicalism ; and
vet, there are some Democrats who con
ceive that apostacy will benefit Democracy !
HARD TO BELIEVE-
Ever and'anon, the National Intelligencer
writes in this fashion :
“The game is perfectly well understood here,
and we know the desperate expedients Hint
will be adopted to carry the election by the
bayonet, in imitation of the worthy example of
Louis Napoleon. But it is as well that Iheie
desperate demagogues should know that the
American people will not tainc-ly submit to be
defrauded of their right?, or to be cheated out
of the election of President by fabricated ne
gro votes.”
At least fifty thousand similar menaces
have been made, during the last three years,
and yet, the “ American People” submitted
in every instance. One reason why Beast
Butler “ pushes on the column ” is his per
fect contempt for threats, which are sound
and fury, signifying nothing. If the “Amer
ican People" ever rise to strike for liberty,
it will be a miracle as surprising to other
people as to themselves. Bowen’s black
smith is a practical commentary upon these
fine-spun theories.
GORHAM AGAIN,
When this notorious man was nominated
to succeed Fornf.y as Secretary of the Uni
ted States Senate, the only Democrat audi
bly voting against him was Mr. McCreery,
of Kentucky. That the other Democratic
Senators endorsed him by silence is simply
preposterous. They knew full wel 1 that
their voices were nugatory, and so, permitted
him to be initiated without a useless waste
of breath. Be this as it may, what we have
said against Gorham has been founded
upon the denunciation of the Radical press.
If the man Gorham is truthfully pictured
by the Missouri Democrat , lie is worse than
Forney, and the Senate is worthy of its Sec
retary. If the Democrat spoke falsely,
what guarantee can the Radical journals
produce on the score of honesty ? Which
is the mud-puddle—the Radical press or
the Radical Senate? If Gorham is inno
cent, his party journals are libelers; if
guilty, the Senate is no better thaw a drab.
An Error. —Our informant had a con
versation with Gov. H. V. Johnson, on Fri
day last, and the Governor declared his
conviction that the nomination of Chase is
the only course to insure success beyond a
peradventurc. —Macon Telegraph.
We are authorized by Governor John
son to state that the gentleman who re
ported the above to the Macon lelec/raph
totally misunderstood his position. * Gov.
Johnson said, or intended to be understood
to say, that the salvation of the Govern
ment depended upon the defeat of the Rad
ical candidate for the Presidency, and that
if the nomination of o;tasf. were indispen
sably necessary for that purpose, he would
cheerfully support him, if nominated by
the Convention.
The South and the West.—The Mobile
Tribune says:
“ Presently the vast empire of the West,
and all the vast empire which is growing
on the Pacific, will speak to us in words of
comfort, and we and they will go on to
control this country, and New England will
have no voice in it, except whining. Any
man in a reasonable degree of health will
live long enough to find out Jhis fact.”
llow Times and Men Change. —Several
years ago a certain young United States of
ficer was jvilfl—and as unpopular among
his ajrmy comrades %s he was reckless.—
During the great Crystal Palace exhibition
in New York city, he distinguished himself
by riding a horse into a hat store, and per
formed several other fe.its which at last
brought him to a court-martial. The court
assembled at Fortress Monroe, the officer
was tried and the finding given, but not
published—“ guilty of conduct unbecoming
an officer and gentleman.” Informed of the
finding, and anticipating its approval, the
Ciptain, for such he?,was, went at once to
Washington, called hpon the Secretary of
War, and made a frank statement of the
case. He acknowledged his fault, but said
that if punished by the court in the man
ner he expected, he would be forever dis
graced. In consideration of his position
as an officer, and the circumstances con
nected with his family, he begged permis
sion to resign. The Secretary of War in
armed him that such a thing as a resigna
after charges had been preferred was un
heard of in the annals of military law, and
contrary to the rule and practice of the ser
vice. But the officer begged on, and finally
the Secretary yielded ; the resignation was
allowed, and the soldier became a civilian
and merchant. That officer was General
Ulysses S. Grant, and the Secretary of War
ex-Presideut Jefferson Davis. These are
the facts as they were related to us by an
officer of the United States army.

The Southern Democracy.
Already a hue and cry arises from the
Radical party about the representation of
the Southern Democracy at the New York
('invention. When the Southern delegates
shall have been admitted to seats in the
convention, and to votes on the questions
and nominations, the Jacobin newspaper
press wiy find iu Iho proceeding as much
occasion tor howling as it did in the action
of the seven Republican Senators on im
peachment. The meaningless denuncia
tions of copperheads ami rebels will be
even more prevalent than now; and an in
ability to meet broad, national, deinocra'A
issues witlt argument will be offset by de
nunciation aud blackguardism.
What are the real merits of this case as
compared with the position taken by the
Radical convention recently held in this
city? That convention was a representa
tive body of a political party that lias used
its power, under the disguise of reconstruc
tion, to keep the Southern States out of the
Union until their votes could be controlled
hi favor of radicalism. When tiie roll of
States was called in the convention, the
names of the Southern States were forgot
ten, so strong was the habit of looking upon
these States as out of the Union. They
were afterwards admitted to seats and votes
as States. Delegates from Territories then
claimed an admission on equal footing, be
cause the Radical party had treated the
Southern States practically as Territories. —
Indeed, the delegation from Colorado was
so admitted, because, forsooth, it would
have been a&tate if it had not been for the
veto of a President of the United States
whom the convention proposed to ignore
altogether.
Why was it that the Radical Unicago Con
vention admitted delegates from certain
portions of the South which they do not
acknowledge to hea part of the Union?
Because they were Radicals. Why is it
that, the Radicals already begin to denounce
delegates from the same portion of the
country to the Democratic Convention as
rebels? Simply because they are not Radi
cals.
Ex Governor Brown, of Georgia, both in
• he speech which lie made in the convention
aud in casting the vote of his delegation for
Grant, declared that the greater part of the
Southerners present had been original seces
sionists. These men, for the love of office,
or for some other gratification of personal
interest, sacrificed not merely principle, but
t he good of their own people and the dignity
of their States to-* rush into an opposite
fanaticism as bad as that which led t hem
into rebellion. They were original seces
sionists, lint they had become second-hand
Abolitionists, and were received with arms
by l lie Radical Convention.
There may be delegates to the Demo
cratic Convention who were original seces
sionists or took some part in the late war
against the Union, though there will be
scarcely one so thoroughly identified with
the precipitation of the war as c-x Governor
Brown, of Georgia. These men will lie de
nounced by the Radical press and leaders
most unmercifully as traitors, and the De
mocracy will be soundly berated lor having
anything to do with them. Yet they will
be men who, in spite of the inducements
held out by Radicalism for parly alliance,
have remained true to the principles of lib
erty and Union as opposed to despotism aud
disunion. In spite of Jacobin bayonets,
tlu-y have refused all allegiance to the Jaco
bin party, saving that allegiance for a com
mon government. They have preferred pre
sent guttering, with the prospect of their
rights at some future time, to present pros
perity at the price of future degradation.
The difference between the Southern dele
gates to the Chicago Convention and the
Southern delegates to the New York Con
vention is tliis : The former embraced Radi
calism, just as they did secession, from per
sonal and unpVinclpled motives ; the latter
have remained hue to the Democracy,
under the most trying circumstances,
because they regard its success as the only
surety for the restoration of the Union.
Which of the two classes deserve denun
ciation as traitors ?—Chicago Times.

Mineral Point, May 27,1808.
On last evening’s train General Grant’s
father armed at, this city, and whop it was
known, and “ such things are generally
known in a very short time,” the leading
Radicals of the city came in, and were in
troduced to him, and they were making a
great fuss over him. At last the conversa
tion turned upon politics,'and Gen. Grant’s
father said : Gentlemen, there never was
such a nomination made as the Radicals
have made in nominating my son as Presi
dent, and Colfax is a very good man for the
position of Vice-President, lie said lie
was glad that’ Ben Wade was pot put in as
Vice, for lie had not a bit of sense, and talk
ed too much, and would have been the
means of the Radical ticket losing at least
a hundred thousand votes in Ohio—don’t
believe in letting negroes vote; says it’s
too much l.kc frying to make them equal
to the whites, and said the only reason he
thought they ought to have been steed for,
was financially and politically, not because
they were not in their place, for he thought
the only place they were fit were as slaves,
for they are not able to take care of them
selves, and he told a story to illustrate the
fact. Said the only way they would work
and t in' only way to treat them was by
using the whip freely. He thinks the peo
ple will be ashamed of giving the negro his
freedom. He says General Palmer made a
fool of himself at the convention in his
speech. He don’t think much of Palmer or
ti-,e platform. He says he advised them to
leave nigger out of the platform,. for lie
told them if they did not they would be
beat; and said one of the most disgusting
things he ever witnessed was the nigger
delegation at the convention at Chicago. If
he had his way he would have kicked them
out. He said never—no, never—would he
be filing for niggers to vote; bethinks
the more they are educated the worse it is
for them, and says he don’t believe in edit-,
eating them. He don’t believe in them
voting in the South or any place else.—
They had no civil rights at all; this coun
try was made to be ruled by white men
and not niggers; thinks the Freed men’s Bu
reau the greatest swindle the country ever
saw. He said he had seen the time when
he had nothing to eat, and the United States
did not feed him, but he had to work or
starve. And so long as t hey indulged the
nigger in idleness, the longer they would
have to. And said if he bad ten cents, and
it would educate a nigger, he would throw
it in the tire before they should have it.—
Says he thinks it will beat the General, and
will be glad if he is defeated.
