The telegraph informs us that on
last Thursday, at the fllontgomery
.,. County (Ohio) Democratic Conven
tion. Hon. C. L. Yallandidsham in-l
we adopted, "accepting the results
of the war, the validity of the three
Constitutional Amendments adopted
since 1861, and favoring the equal
rights of all American citizens, with
out regard to race, color or previous
.-condition!" i
We freely acknowledge that this is
a little ahead of any "progressive
Democracy" that has come under our
observation in fact it fairly takes
i away oar breath with its
speed!
lightning
A few years ago Mr. Yallandidg-
ham was denouncing the war as un
constitulional an unholy crusade
against the rights of the States, and
subversive of the principles upon
-which our Government was founded.
He was arrested without cause', im
, prisoned without trial, and banished
frtim his natirn Rfnl hor-micA nf Ki'a
denunciation of the measures which
he' now declares are the legitimate
.results of the war, and ought to be
accepted as 6uch by Democrats as
-well as Republicans. In other
-words, he jumps on to the rear car of
-the Radical express train that is car-:
, rying the country to destruction at
lightning speed, and boldly swinging
v: v t at -n n. - t
cj to follow on ' as fast as the devil
can take them!
He wants them to discard every
principle that was but yesterday re
garded as essentially Democratic,
-and bury the fundamental land
marks of the party under the filth
ana scum oi me x uteenin Amend
ment and the other infernal iniquities I
of Radicalism, trimming the, sails of
the good old Democratic ship to the
Radical breeze and tuning the Dem
ocratic harp to Radical music. He
says to Democrats, "Let the dead
pastburry its dead, and let us all
join, in with the Radical party, shout
ing with them in chorus, ' Flea la nig
ger and death to the White Man's
Government f " ,
Democrats, will we do this? "Will
-we bury down deep in the grave of for
getfulness those dear and cherished
principles fcr which our patriot fath
ers fought bloody battles and suffer
ed sorest privations? Will we deposit
in the grave of our country's ruin
the once glorious rights of the States,
the freedom of the Commonwealths
-and the independence of their peo
ple, and upon this sacred pile gently
lay the Old Constitution and the hal
lowed memories that cluster lovingly
about it's musty pages, and with the
Jastblnsh of departing honor man
gling our cheeks and a swelling sob al
most bursting our hearts, reverently
close the sacred sepulchre, and de-
, part without leaving" even a perish
able head-board to mark its last rest?
Or will'we, as in days of yoie, stand
- by the Constitution and the Union,
-defend'the teachings of the fathers,
- and holding aloft the old Democratic
banner on which is inscribed the Jef
fersonian landmarks of a civil Consti
tutional Government, fight fot those
living pkiscot.es which demagogues
call dead issues?
consistent, honest, true and un
changeable Democrats!
Let . traitors, - trimmers, . political
weather-cocks and aspirifjg dema
gogues prate of "dead issues" and
"buried principles" true principles
can never die. .
"Truth, c nulled to earth, will rise again.
The en dies jeara of God are ber; -.Bat
Error, wounded, writhe in pain.
And diet amid her worshipers."
EXECRABLE.
Last Wednesday the insurgents in
yParis destroyed the magnificent Na
poleon column in the Place Ven
dome. This column was erected by
Napoleon . Bonaparte to celebrate his
remarkable victories in 1805. It was
135 feet high, and at its base 12 feet
in "dianleter. Some 1,200 " cannon,
the trophies of Napoleon's victories,
;were used in its construction, and its
architecture is said to have been of
the most - superior order. A few
months , ago these ; Vandals would
ihave worshipped at its shrine as a holy-
'altar;' now they spurn and 1 spit
upon its shattered ruins with fiendish
.glee! Such : characters, can " expect
very little sympathy from the civil
ized world which has been outraged
2y this wanton act of desecration.-'
The soonei they are subjugated by
, some rational power the better for
all Christendom. ; .

A3 A BJLBBATH SCHOOL
BCHOLAE,'
Rev.Mr. Fairish, of Salem, made
a talk to the M. E. Sabbath School
Scholars of this city, last Sunday. In
the course of. his remarks, in attempt'
ing to slimnlate the children to more
constant attendance upon the Sab
bath School, he informed them that
many great men had "got their start"
by being Sabbath School scholars.
"Why," said he, as he waxed warm
on the subject, "even the great Presi
dent of the United States was once a
Sabbath School scholar!"
Now, preachers, a a general rule,
may assert almost any absurdity, and
the people are prone to believe them;
but when one of them invents a
fable, of such glaring proportions
as that of the Rev. P., then even the
little children 'are excusable for dis
playing a want of confidence in his
words and a lack of respect for ' his
clerical robes.
And we VespectfuUy submit if it is
very encouraging to the good little
hoys who attend Sabbath School to
have Grant pointed out to them as
having once been an exemplary Sab
bath School scholar? The man who
has been proved a willful liar by the
highest officials in the land; who
was, while at Fort Vancouver and at
Portland, such a drunken sot that
respectable ladies would draw up
their skirts when passing bim for'
fear of contamination, and oys would
shrink away from his blood-shot eyes
as from the gaze of a venomous rep
tile; the man whose came was asso
ciated in disgraceful connection
with the vile and loathsome creatures
who still infest the borders oi the
towns and villages of the Pacific
coast to ply their nameless avocations
and spread their leprous infections;
the man who was a drunkard in ad
versity and is a tyrant in prosperity
who is devoid of the finer instincts
of mankind and wholly oblivious of
the Bufferings of those victims whom ,
he sees fit to oppress for pelf or pow
er is hardly a fit example for the
rising generation or a model for the
Christian child. Washington, who
combined all the graces and virees
of a Christian gentleman ' with the
elements of a wise ruler and states
man; or Lee, whose humility, piety
and firm reliance upon the Most High
God, even in the darkest hour of ad
vesity,.'was the strengthening rod
which sustained his almost despairing
soul, would be an eminent tvpe of the
beauties of a Christian education and
the fruits of early religious teachings.
But Grant? who probably knows
about as much of the Ten Command
ments as a Digger Indian knows of
Hebrew, and whose knowledge of
Christ's Sermon on the Mount is as
obscure as the pagan's ideas of a
Risen Savior! Please don't infect
the pure atmosphere of a church
with the mention of .his name, or
poison the children's minds against
the good and pure by citing to them
his pernicious examples. -
GEAKT GETS LA50THEU SLAP.
Sherman, the great incendiary and
barn-burner of the lata onpleasant-
3 onpieasani- (
ness has been recently punching
Grant up pretty lively in a speech at
New Orleans.. A few weeks ago a lot
of Hiram Ulysses' minions and carpet
bag appointees at New Orleans gave j
Sherman a "spread, counseling of
wines, etc., stolen from Southern
cellars, and when hash and drinks
had been discussed pretty freely, the
man who vandalized more Southern
homes than any other General was
called out for a speech, and here is
the way he prodded up Grant's Ku
Elux infamies: - -
"I believe this Government will
keep on growing until it spreads it
self over the entire American conti
nent, but in order to gain this much
desired end, ' and to maintain our
selves as a free and independent re
public, we have got to show more
charity toward each other. It has
been remarked by some gentlemen
who has preceded me, that.it was
generally conceded by the soldiers of
both armies at the close of the war,
that if the questions and all the mat
ters of the settlement of the differen
ces between the North and South,
were left to tae armies it would be
settled at once and everything would
become auiet and orderly. I so be
lieved, and before signing the agree
ment with Gen. Joe Johnston, I
called together all the Generals un
der my command, and without a
dissenting voice they agreed with
met I believed 'they surrendered, in
good faith, and would have lived up
to the i very letter of agreement and
in my opinion, if there bad been no
reconstruction acts of Congress, and
the armies been left at the time to
settle all questions of differences be
tween the different sections of the
fBntJ? the uld at. once
probably nave ar good means oi in
formation as most . persons in regard
to what is called the Eu-klux, ' and
am perfectly satisfied that the thing
is generally 'over-estimated; and if
the Ku-Klux bills were put out of
Congress, and the army kept at their
legitimate duties, there are enough
good . and true men. in all Southern
States to put down all Eu-Klux or
other bands of marauders."
In private conversation, be was
even more emphatic and unreserved.
Speaking of the . San Domingo
scheme, he said:- ': ; . ' 1 ' '
' "We have territory enough, 'more
than .we have use for. jWe can hire
a coaling station in the West Indies
for $3,000 a year, and we had better
do that." . .-:

Wasminqtox, D. C, May 0, 1871.
' Commissioner Pleasauton yester
day decided that under the recent
decision of the Supreme Cpurt, city
and county officers aie not exempt
from income tax. ' ' ,. .
Secretary Boutwell has returned
from his Western trip and is busily
engaged in arranging the details for
Assistnut Secretary Richardson's vii
it to the principal commercial cities
in Europe, for the purr ose of placing
the new loan in the market there. . So
far not a penny has been subscribed
in Europo, and I hardly think thai
any persuasiveness that tho narrow
minded Richardson possesses will
effect a change in the minds of Euro
pean capitalists who thoroughly un
derstand all the advantage? of the
new loan. The subscription, to the
loan yesterday was about $50,000.
Something less than this wiil not pay
the expense of advertising. Bout
well's failure with tho new loan will
not only damage him as a Presiden
tial aspirant but will give Grant an
excuse to oust him, which hcjuccretly
desires.
Caleb Cushing, who is constantly
engaged by Grant and his adminis
tration in doing jobs of one sort or
another, always with good pay, .from
settling Mexican claims down to writ
ing an address, lias been giving his
views on the High Commission and
says: "That instead of
making
treaty adjusting the Alabama ques
tion and providing for s the payment
of damages, they havo simply declar
ed that hereafter no armed vessels
shall be equipped in neutral ports to
attack friendly, commerce. All
claims go to a mixed court." Caleb
states the case very plainly and truly,
for that is about all this much-talked-of
Joint High Commission will
amount to. When its provisions are
made known the disappointment and
dissatisfaction of the American peo
ple will be extreme. This same Ca
leb Cushing has received another
crumb, brushed into his hat from the
Grant tnbl. He has been appoint
ed an attorney to represent the claims
of citizens of this government against
Spain, in accordance with the agree
ment mode by Minister Sickles.
Many who remember Caleb Cushiug
as' a prominent Democratic leader
and Attorney General under a Dem
ocratic administration no doubt won-1
der at his being so favored with fat
jobs by Grant & Co. The secret is
that Cushing reviles the South in a
manner not excelled by Ben Butler,
and Grant does not forget to pay
him for Lis slanders and malignity
towards a section w Inch no longer
has the power to reward as Grant has
for services. Cushiug is a free lance
in politics; a Swiss guardsmau; he
serves for pay and no matter the side
which he fights on. Ono party's
gold is as good as another. An esti
mable character is Culeb Cushiug.
The Radical editorial snakes, in
the bitterness of their envy at the
unity of the Democratic party, could
almost turn and sting themselves.
But in lieu of that they are trying to
cast their venom into the midst of
, , , if.
lue "eujua"c 1U ineir
tender care for tho "Democratic
masses" they warn them that Tam
many Hall rules their party, and say
that the withdrawal of the name of
Gov. Hoffman as a candidate for the
Presidency in 1872 is all -pure hum
bug. Instead ot healing the dissen
tions in their own ranks their sympa
thetic hearts and wide-spread philan
throphy forces them to try and save
the "Democratic masses" from the
Tammany Society. Those Tamma
nyites are fearful fellows to the Rad
ical imagination, a sort of northern
KuKlux. When the Tammany sa
chems, after due deliberation, and no
doubt for the best reasons, withdrew
the name of their favorite son from
the Presidential race in 1872, and
expressed a preference for a Western
mau, they did so in good faith, and
all the base charge i made by the
Radical journals, as to their intend-
ing tncKery ana deception, is an in
sult to their ability and shrewdness.
Let the Radicals' call the Tammany
ites hard names, for they have no rea
son to love them, but do not charge
them with being fools, as tb6 world
knows better. Messieurs Radicals,
we don't discord worth a darn.
