Well, if tho negroes must vote, it seems a if white women should have tho same Erivilcge, bo es not to be domineered over y the negroes. But. if white women vote, the Radicals will not bo satisfied for a day until they enfranchise the black women. So wo don't ce that whito fe male suffrage would help tho whito wom en much, A rare condition of things we should have at the polls. Tho scene would bo pictursnue. It might attract specta tors from Europe and all tho islands of the sea. Senator Sherman would evidently like to be a conservative. Ue occasionally plant l:Imolf with Apparent flrmnes.! up on conservative ground, but, sooner or later, he yields to radical pressure. He would be a strong aud influential man if he had anything but a bull-rush or a tew string for a backbone. There are several crevasses in the lev ees of the Mississippi, and the people arc doings what they can to close them up. -There arc several in the Federal treasury and tho Radical Congress has been busy in widening them. Why cannot somo enterprising Yankee get up a ballot-box aud assortment of bal lots and take over a few negroes to the Paris Exhibition to entertain the world with a specimen of negro voting? It would be a feature. Hold on, IJovs. Hold on to. your tonguo when are just ready to swear, lie, or speak harshly, or uie any improper word. Hold on to your hand, when you are ready to strike, steal, or do any improper act. Hold on to your foot when you are on the point of kicking, running away from study, or pursuing the path of orror, shame or crime. Hold on to your anger when you are angry, excited, or imposed upon, or others arc angry about you. Hold on to your heart when evil per sons seek your company and invite you to join tneir games, rnirtu.or revelry. Hold on to your namo at all times, for it i more valuable to you than gold, high pcos or fashionable attire. 11.11 . .1 Mt IIUIU lin W IMOirUWl jur II Will KfTC wcU aoJ ,Jo 'ou K004 throughout T a m a a ll0,a 0D t0 yur it is above all T.

L. F. GROVER, DELIVERED AT ALBANY, JULY A, 1867. Fellow-cititens of Linn county Ladies awl ueniicmen : This is the birth-day of our great Jlenub- lie. On this day a new government was given to mankind, and n new era was marked in the poogress of civilization. It was on this day that the aspirations, struggles and hopes of ideal liberty broke awfly from en tablihcd forms and asserted themselves in a real, living, clf-sutairiiri Government. Ihe germ or regulatcfl JilertT, planted far away In centuries gone, taking root, ftomctimcs upon the barren lands of mon archy, and sometime amid the tares of ty- ranny, naa aevciopea hut little growth and produced but littlo fruit ; but wfienthe need wan cast upon American soil, forthwith it sprnng up, bating an hundred ft Ad. The elements of our Constitution are traceable to dim aget, and the bulwarks of our liberties are planted upon Magna Charta. At the period of our Kevolutn.n it was not so much an aertirn of new principles, or a demand of rights before withheld, as it was tho occasion of asserting principles and de manding rights desired to bo secured, which led to our present form of government. Our fathers began by initing upon what they called the righU of Englishmen, and ended by realising the practical rights of Ameri can!.. Excepting thebitternesi Engendered by the war, the body of the people wan the same lic fore tho war as after it, and embued alike with the spirit of liberty. The thorough denomination of enlightened views and a full acceptance of liberal principles in govern ment, had fitted the colormts for our present form of Conittitution and mode them ready for its establishment. They had, in fact, established incipient republic. Long before the Revolution our fathers had elected local legiilaturei and made and enforced theirown laws subject, it is true, in most instances to authority and limitation of ItoTal charters, but oten with no other authority or limit than their own willa. Tho Declaration of Independence to which you have jat listened, is of ite'f an evi dence of what right the American colonist claimed to excrcme, befr interruption and denial by the arbitrary Ministry of George the rourtb. It ia ceclarel: IIo has refused his assent to laws the most whsdesome un-i necessary for the public god. 'lie has dissolved representative liousc repeatedly, f jr oppoing with manly firmness hie innovation of the rights of the people. "He has obstructed the administration of justice by refusing hh-t absent to laws estab lishingjudiciary powcra." When it is understood that the "laws" re ferral to in tbi Declaration were the law framed by the colonists themselves. -and that they denied the right of tho King arid his ministry to review or to vcfc thoc laws, it will be readily underfcto'xl to what degree of civil liberty our Ancestors had attained be fore the Revolution. Antither complaint against the British King wa : "He has endeavored to prevent the population of these State? fur that pur pose obstructing the law of naturalisation of f iroigner." The instinctive belitf of the wa to be a countrr of greater freedom than any other, had drawn to our nhore itnmi- ".- V v . V J I nomination of reltirious lelicf. Thar' were the Knglish.

"The mills of Ood griad slowly," saitb the poctj and when we witnes the certainty with which our present high desti ny ha been reached, from the many elements and jarring interests of which the Colonists were composed, we acknowledge that a pow er higher than that of can shaped and di rected our progress. t I cannot hesitate to conclude that at na time subsequent to the substantial planting of the early American settlements, could an immediate, monarchial government have ex. iated within our borders, nor could a present imperial ruler have vcintd fur a sfnele day -unsupported by furtign power. This land was devoted by nature to free government, and all the chocks and hindrances placed in theway of its course were only so many occa s sions for the country to show its power over them. While the Republican form is one known in the history of past governments, the type or our own is generic in itself j it is identi cal, and has the power of reproduction. If a stroke of annihilation should to-day re move every public office in the land, and tho, lfcwsi and archives be destroyed, there would be no revolution no change ; tut, again " like officers would be elected and like lawa would be enacted by the people. If the pop ulation of an entire State should be swept away in an hour, another people, gathered. lungui ue, irom an states and from all na brce the laws found unori tha atafntA books.
