THE CAMPAIGN IN MAINE. General Logan at Bath—He Analyzes the Convention and Denounces Them as Rebele— Andrew Johnson Never Told a Truth. Bara, August 7, 1868, Last night an immense crowd assembled to listen to General John A. Logan on the situation. The building was crowded to overflowing, and thousands turned away disappointed. The proceedings were opened by a local celebrity, General F. B. Sewell, Who did credit to the Presidential question, as he views it from a@ radical standpoint. Then came Logan, who was greeted by an applause that seemed to shake the hall to its foundation. He opened ina very tame style, but in a few minutes he showed himself to be the very embodiment of flery enthusi- asm. He of course assailed the democratic party, and gave as an example of its loyalty Horatio Seymour. He declared that he did not care for “platform ;? if the -democratic party should adopt the republican platform he should not care; but after reading it he asked who was the endorser ofthe democratic platform but Seymour. He had read it over three or four times, and he did not see as it differed materially from that of 1864, Every time they could add a few votes they would change ita little, The republican party taxed the people because they could not help it, and it was to pay the national debt incurred by the opnesies North and their friends at the South, and “Ss they trust them again?’ he asked. it they did the rebels at the South would shake hands wiih those at the North, and forgive them for not assisting to fight against the fag, and those at the North would for- te those at the South for making war against em. He did not want that every democrat should think that he was styling them all rebels. Heaven forbid. At the ten o’clock open board the stock market ‘was dull and barely steady, and New York Central @old at 130% a 131; Erie, 585% a 58%; Reading, 9174; Hudson River, 13744; Michigan Southern, 86; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 884g; Cleveland and Toledo, 102; Rock Island, 11174; Northwestern, 82% @ 82%; do. preferred, 82; Milwaukee and St. Paul, 75; Fort Wayne, 10934; Ohio and Mississippi, 293, @ 205¢; Pa- cific Mail, 10234 a 102%. At the first regular board there was @ very light volume of business trans- acted, and Cleveland and Pittsburg closed % higher than at the same time yesterday, and Pacific Mail 3, while Ohio and Mississippi was } lower, and Ten- messec sixes, ex-coupon, };. Government securities were firm and the tive-twenties of 1862 showed an ‘advance of %. At the open board atone o'clock the market was slightly higher, and New York Central sold at 130%; Erie, 59; Reading, 92; Michigan South- ern, 865¢; Rock Island, 111% a 111%; Northwestern, 8236 @ 824; do. preferred, 81%; Fort Wayne, 109%¢; Ohio and Mississippi, 29%; Pacific Mall, 103 a 1033¢. ‘There was no later session of either the regular or the open board, but business was continued in the lower hall until half-past three, and afterwards on the street until half-past five. The main feature during the interval was an advance in Pacific Mail to 104}, under speculative operations directed against the “short” interest in the stock. The closing quota- tions were as subjoined, the market being droop- ing:—New York Central, 129% a 130; Erie, 583, a 68%; Reading, 91% @ 91%; Michigan Southern, 85% a 86; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 8834 @ 8894; Kock Island, 111% @ 111%; Northwestern, 6134 @ 82; do. preferred, 81}, 881%; Fort Wayne, 109 a 109%; Ohio and Missis- @ippl, 20% a 29%; Pacific Mail, 104% a 104%4; West- ern Union Telegraph, 34); a 34%. The foreign exchange market was unsettled dur- ing the forenoon, and later in the day there were no transactions, At the close’ bankers’ bills on Eng- land at sixty days were quoted at 109% @ 110; at ‘three days, 109% @ 110%; commercial bills, 1083 a, 109, Bankers’ bills on Paris at sixty days, 5.173 a 6.15.

Rates of interest are more uniformly sustained at 8 a per vent in bank and 10 per cent in the open market for first class paper. There is more activity in financial business generally, deposits and checking are increasing, while currency is movi to the country for the purchase of wheat, flaxs and other produce. In ail of this there are signs of e a of the fall trade, but the increaze will be q@radual and it will not probably be very brisk for ol weeks. A weeky commercial paper of this city contains the following in relation to the cotton movement:— special telegrams received from each of the Southern ports we are in possession of the returns showing the receipts, exports, &c., of cotton for the ‘week ending this evening, August 7. From the figures thus obtained it appears that the total re- ‘ceipts for the last seven days have reached 696 bales dagainst 1,457 bales last week, 2214 bates the previ- ous week and 3,385 bales three weeks since), making ‘the gate receipts since September 1, 1867, up to this date, including the returns by telegraph to- night, 2,142,855 bales, against 1,855,676 bales for the fame'pertod in 1800-7, being ah @Xcess this season it season Of 327.179 ba.es.

In the gallery on one side there were copperheads, on the other democrats, while in the body of Tammany Hall there were the pure and unde- filed democrats, the rebels. There was one man there named William that he did not know what to call— not a rebel, for rebel he was not; not a democrat, for democrat he was not. What then shouid he call him; for his name was William, and William was a colored gentleman and the only spark of loyalty in the house. Thus they had to steal one of ours to represent loyalty. The democracy had a great time bed choose @ candidate, but at last foand one to suit em. There was one whom they ought to have chosen, but did not—one who was never known to tell the truth. He did not mean that he ever falsified inten- tionally; but with regard to the affairs of the nation he was never known to tell the truth. That man was Andrew Johnson. (Hisses.) The democrats very well to talk thus; but if he was a fool it was a pity they did not have two fools, so that if one died the other — live and the coun- ba be at peace. f this man Grant was what they styled him—and he had fought more than @ hundred battles without losing one— then God must be on his side; and if God was with ne the democrats had not better try to match im. The General said much more of the same sort, and was cheered vociferously throughout. He leaves to-day for Augusta, where he will address the radi- cals under the auspices of the Grand Army. Col siderable spirit has been thrown into the camp: in Maine, and the republicans are confident of a brilliant victory for their cause. THE CAMPAIGN IN SOUTH CAROLINA, . Wade Hampton, Hon. W. H. Hilliard, Judge Aldrich, General Butler and Hon. Jas. B. Campbell on the Situation. A great democratic gathering took place at Aiken, 8. C., on the 4th. The meeting was addressed by a number of distinguished Southern gentlemen, as well as by acouple of democratic negroes. A letter was also read from James B. Campbell, of Charles- ton. The proceedings closed with a feast anda small riot, caused by an attempt of some radical negroes to flog one of the colored orators of the occa- 8102. Speech of General Hampton. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—If any one thing can stir my heart more profoundly than another it is the re- ception which I have met with here and over the whole State. When, after the bitter storm through which we have passed, I come back to my own native land and see again the men who stood shoulder to shoulder with me in the fight, and extending to me a welcome while they tell me that they believe that I have striven to do my duty, I feel deeply ful, as does the tempest tossed mariner who, ha’ escaped shipwreck, enters at last the haven of safety. The endeavor to do = duty was the motive that carried me through the years of strife that have passed. I believed when the State called her sons to war it was the duty of every citizen to respond, and I answered promptly to the the call. So, likewise when the State gave the order to sheath the sword, I obeyed the command. | am now fighting for her cause and her interests in as I fought for them in war; and, fellow citizens, in my opinion, grave as was the struggle in which we wele then engaged, and terrific as have been the co! ences to us in Places, the in- terests involved in the contest in which we are now engaged are even more momentous. 1 believe that upon the success of the cause di ids the life or death of the constitution, and that if we are success- ful we can re-establish the government of the con- stitution and Union. But we fail, if the demo- cratic party falls, then, m my opinion, we shall see yublic of Washington go down into that grave which has closed over so m: of ite prede- cessors. strike again for his altar, fireside and country. Mr. Hampton then alluded to the part taken by him in the late democratic convention, and com- mented on the platform as follow: What, ationen, B that platform, and what are those principles? declared that the reconstruc- tion acts are unconstitutional, revolutionary and void. Unconstitutional, because they subverted tue free government under which we lived, and in this Union, founded @n the consent of the governed, sub- jected ten Btates to the power of the bayonet; because they strip) the chief magistrate of his legal authority, and on important questions had de- prived the Supreme Court of its rightful jurisdic- tion, had threatened to strip the court of ail its When that court had decided that these acts were unconstitutional, Congress interfered, ex- tended its hand and would not ailow the decision to be declared until after the Presidential election. We of the South had not done more than to gay that their acts were unconstitutional, had Asked for @ decree of the Supreme Court, aud were prepared to submit im good faith, the decision being adverse to our cause. We de- clared the reconstraction acts revolutionary, because they revolutionized sus 90 ernment of the ‘country, because they had pl ten States under a military despotism, because they threatened the subversion of the supreme judicial tribunal of the land, and because the party now in power in Congress in- tended Lahey them to retain by force what they had acquired by frauds, Will not the radical party which proposes to seize the government meet us with the base and bold {imposition of charging us rebel and revolutionist on account of something I had said, Now I defy them to put their fluger on one word or @ single place in which I have said any: thing that can be so construed. {1 said in Charieston that plank a the reconstruction as unconstitutional, reviutionary and void, was one which we had put there; and I say so again. This Is not the tirat instance in history in which @ party intend. ing to seize the government and overthrow the ivertien of the people has cha its opponents with ite own designs. Weare nol ‘king revolu- tion, We only ask for our States the same rights that Massachusetts enjoys. We merely demand the it to regulate our own affairs. We do not seek war, We want peace. to build up our I believe that itis the duty of every man to | NEW YORK HEKALD, SUNDAY, AUGUST 9, 1868. places, to restore our altars, to regain our prosperity, to bring forth our energtes, and to re-establish upon a drm foundation the republic of our fathers. Tnat is what we want, and it is only that which we aim at. ‘The radical party charges us with being rev- qualonaty. They say through their standard bearer let us have peace. Now, fellow citl- zens, What kind of peace? There is one kind of peace which comes from the Godhead it- self—the peace which passes all ndevtanding. ‘There is another peace where the white-robed angel, after the din of war has ceased, broods over the smiling land and deciares that all are brethren once more. But there is yet another peace—the pene which the kite gives to the dove, the woif to the lamb—the peace of death, Let the radical rule be firmty fixed; let them once er reins of gov- ernment, and that peace of death will prevail for- ever in this fair land of ours. Not only here will it revail, buttrom Maine to California, from the At- lantic to the Gulf, The peace of death—because that government for which our fathers fought would go down in blood, anarchy and confusion, and upon ts ruing would rise the empire of thedespot. It is then in the interest of peace that I speak to you here. I wish to disabuse the minds of people here and of my friends at the North. The General concluded with the annexed appeal to the colored people:— I now want to say a few words to the colored peonle of whom I am glad to see many here. iieve, and I have told them that, if the interests of the white man are at stake theirs are even more in jeopardy. If the worst comes to the worst the white man Coe pee his household gods and carry his sorrow his suffering to another land; but before the black man can go away he must make money enough. Even then there is no place in which he would’be treated as weil ag he is . Lf he goes to the North or Northwest he will be Inet as an enemy, T assert, and I have before this exp |, my wil- lingness to grant more nee to the colored people than any Northern State has shown a willingness to grant in the recent elections. I feel that the interests of the black men and the white men of the South are yound up together. I feel that the black men are Southern men; that we were born upon the same soil and that we have lived our past lives together. I know that as the white man prospers so will the black man prosper, I know that if the white men become poor and broke down the black men will share the same fate, The radicals have made them many promises, but when they had got what they wanted they allowed the colored people to whistle down the win. and shift for themselves. I tell you that if you are so unfortunate as to draw the tine between the white people of the South and your- selves you Will soon find that you have no friends at all. The white men will bring other white men into the country who will work cheaper than the colored man. In a few years they wili have occupied every foot of ground where you now dwell. They will be hired to the owners of the land, and gradually, but peacefully and surely, they will spread oyer the country, and the colored man will be driven out and will dgappear as tbe Indian has disappeared before. the onward march of the white man. It is the law of God, and it will be so as sure as there is a God in Heaven. I believe that the colored man can do great good in this country, We know him and he knows us. We recognize his freedom fully. It is to our interest that he should make good crops and receive good wages. Even if we were not actuated by old ac- quaintance and friendship our interests would com- el us to look after his welfare. And for their wel- fare we advise them to help us to drive away the radicals and scalawags who are in our midst. My colored friends, do as was done in Mississippi. There the colored majority was greater in proportion than itis here, but the colored men came to the support of their only triends, swept over the State and voted down the reconstruction constitution by a mmaloney of 10,000, That is what you will do here, althoug! [cys s not now. You will find that radical prom- es of forty scres of land and a mule will come to nothing. ‘They will give you a piece of land six feet by three feet, enough to bury you in; but you will get no more except as other people do, by buy- ing and paying for it. (Cheers.) Speech of the Hon. W. H. Hilliard, of Augusta. FELLOW CITIZENS:—I did not expect to speak to Rags this morning, but I cannet refuse when the anner is flaunting the air which bears the names of that party with which are identified the greatest glories of our country, I speak under the flag which lirst waved in New York, and now, like the flery cross of old, is passing through the country calling upon all good men and true to strive to carry it on to victory. Hitherto in our party politics men have been striving for the sway of the country, for place and for proper power. The old line between whi; and democrats is well known, but the defeated party was always sure that at least the country was safe. Now we have no mere party contest. Our struggle now is for constitutional liberty itself, the last struggle that may ever be made on this continent if we go down in the fight, * * * * ‘he Confederate banner, my'friends, is 2 longer seen on earth, It has been laid aside amid regrets and tears, bat it has not been buried. It will never be lifted up again in hostile demonstration, but it belongs to history and the people who have gar- nered it in their hears, never to be forgotten while fught by men is reverenced or loved. This we now speak of not with a sectional spirit, but because while the North ia strong and prosperous the South has been and is under the ban, and if we loved our State well in the day of her prosperity we love her better still in the hour of her adversity. In the South the spirit of freedom has never died, and henceforth, while we may establish new relations, we will never surrender an attachment to the cause of constitu- tional liberty. Much of our property was gone when the war ciosed, but we did not give up liberty, and if it had been known that we should be held forever in subjection as a subjugated people rather than sur- render we would ali have died upon the fleld of bat- te. We surrendered our arms, but we did pot sur- render our liberty. If that surrender of arms 1s to be construed into a surrender of liberty we should all exclaim, in the language of @ poet, written for auotuer clime, Oh! could we from death but recover, ‘Those hearts as they bounded before, In the face of high Heaven fight over ‘That combat for freedom once more. Could the chain for an instant be riven, ‘That tyranny flung round us then? No! ‘tis not in man nor in heaven To let tyranny bind {i again. (Cheefs.) But there are men in the North who recognize us as men whose glory has never been tarnished, and these men will see to it that Carolina wheels into line and enjoys all her rights. I have felt that this battle would be won not so much upon calculation of. chances af upon sentiment and feeling. This coun- try is too a, and too young to surrender up all her liberties, If Congress seizes A ye the Supreme Court and absorbs all the power of the Union, then the struggle is lost. When the news of the battle of Marengo reached England, Mr. Pitt, who was then Minister, said:—“You may close up the map of Europe for twenty years.” If, too, our Marengo is lost, we can only fold our robes peacefully around us and die with our liberties gone. But this I do not dread, for I believe that we shall drive out the worse than Goths and Vandais who now sit in Washington and so regenerate the government. Ours are the men to do it, and do it they will. (Cheers.) Speech of Judge A. P. Aldrich. LADI£8 AND GENTLEMEN:—I greet you now with es- pecial pleasure, for I bi -you “glad tidings of joy.”” The friends of constitutional liberty marshalled their hosts from one end of the country to the other. In New York I was received with great cordiality by all classes, and I felt that their professions were true. Faith and hope revived, and I determined to exert all my energies to restore constitutional government to this down-trodden land. The battle of freedom was once more to be wi and the friends of the constitution are aroused from Maine to Georgia, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. then, of good cheer, for the day of deliverance is athand. * * * [regard it acheer- ing sign that our leaders were received so cordially by the fighting men of the North, who have no re- spect for Butler, Stevens, Sumner and their crew— no more than we have. These men, the true sol- diers, were in the front fighting for the Union, aencny a Butler was one! oe uae icking up spoons. (| iter and great cheering.) They will not be robbed of the fruits of their victory, and will not allow ten States which they fought to keep inthe Union to be ~% out of it any longer. Even if the radicals by fraud carry every Southern State the majorities in the North and West will elect Seymour and Blair. New York is sure for eighty thousand majority, and Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Illinois will follow, and the icals will be beaten so badly as never to be heard of more. When in the New York Convention I heard the shouts that hailed the calling of the names of the Southern States I was glad; but when the name of Carolina was hailed with shouts until the welkin rang, it was the proudest moment of my life. I felt that the con- stitution would be restored by the only party which ever stood by the constitution. The man in the South who would throw suspicion on the democratic party is @ traitor. When the democrats are successful we shall no longer be called “rebel” and “traitor.” The radicals now are the rebels and traitors, and so they will be called. We must strike down the military otism they propose to estab- lish, and tt will be by Grant's own men that we will beat him in November. In @ late election at Wash- ington the officers voted for Grant, but the private \diers voted for Seymour, and so it will be again. The t heart of this army beats responsive to our ery for the restoration of a constitutional govern- ment. The great mass of the privates, volunteer and regular, and the majority of the regular otficers wili be found im November voting for Seymour and Blair. The constitution and the Union—that is our cry, and with it we will march to victory. We are golng to fight a great civil fight at the ballot box, and we must win. If we lose, we die. Speech of General Butler. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—I have been in politics twice in my life. Firat when I tried to take South Carolina out of the Union and failed, and secondly ‘when 1 tried to restore her to the Union and also failed. Reconstruction, a8 it is called, is an idie farce; it ia worse—the excess of criminality. It isa farce to say South Carolina is restored when from one end to another there is no security for life, lib- erty and property. Three years ago at Greensboro, Igave my parole of honor as a soldier, and that parole has been observed in good faith by me as it has been by you. We had aright to expect faith in re- turn, but we bad not received it, Among the sup- porters of the radicals there are but few who were soldiers in the fleid. We were calied traitors and rebels a little while and now Hancock, McCiel- lan, Buell and Granger are calli the trait- ors—men with whom we could settied our troubles in ten minutes. The radical ers, Butler, Colfax and Stevens, were never in the front of bat- tie; they skuiked in the rear and hurried to the din of war nen who were nobler and more ‘tr og than they. The chieftain of the party U rant. t him, as @ soldier, | have Fomine *e say, and 1 ve if he bad beem left to tue terms granted the Confederates would have been faithfully carried out. but the radical hounds have placed him tn a false position. He knows nothing now of jesse, or of policy, or of stateamanship. He only nows now the rule of the bayonet and the two- word military law, “orders and obedience.” He can pally ol wee ais country as a doctor can teach wyer teach engineering. He has placed himseif’ in a false position and sacrificed himself to @ love of power. n- eral Butler then explained the — iniquiti of a so-called majority rule, and spoke of the con- trast between the radical apd democratic tickets, in which latter Seymour, the civilian, waa first and Blair, the soldier, second. He said:—I and we have abandoned the cause for which | and you strug- gied, and in the great struggle before us no man should relax his efforts, All that i left of our once lovely land is at stake, for if the radicals are victori- ous we must gather up our dem¢stic treasures and bid farewelt to the land that gave us birth, When Iberty goes down we must seek some happier scene. In our great fight the true and manly United States soldiers will co-operate with us. Every true soldier will set the constitution at the side Of the demo- cratic banner, and with their aid we have no right to despair of the republic. In conclusion General Butler expressed his coniidence that the righteous sue, would prevail, and sat down amid much Letter from Mr. J. B. Campbell. A long letter was read to the meeting from J. B. Campbell, of Charleston, His views respecting the present and future of the negro are interesting:— In my judgment he ts the best friend of the colored man who most practices towards him the duty of jus- tice, kindness, fair dealing and material ald, veaching him the way to prosperity turough thrift, industry and education, and who entices him least into the fleld of politics—than which there is nothing more cor- rupting to persons like him, just emerging from a condition of pupilage. True, the discussion of po- litical subjects with the colored man is at present forced upon us. The circumstances in which we are placed leave ns no choice. It is a necessity, But I would not extend the fleld of discussion beyond the limit of actual necessity. I would make him no romises which | might not be sure can-and will ereafter be performed ; I would hold out no Bopee to him which I might not believe there will be a reasonable expectation of being realized. I would tell him, truthfully and frankly, that his present politicat supremacy will not be and cannot be permanent; that the worthless adventu- rers who cajole and deceive him to advance them- seives, and like a nightmare press their heavy weight upon us, know this, They have never intended or expected the substantial and permanent advance- ment of the colored man. They aspire to use hum, and for their own seifish purposes to array him in hostility against those with whom he was born and has lived till we shake off their suffocating embrace, when they will, like the oppressive spirit I have likened them to, take their flight and seek more genial regions. { would tell the colored man that, whether they shall succeed in this purpose to place him in hostility to us and then leave him, is for him to choose and decide. If he prefers to trust his future to the uncertain contents of their ot gt ayo rather than accept peaceful and abundant homes on the fertite flelds of his nativity—tields which these false friends first promised, but have failed to give to him—then it shali not be said, in the day of his tribulation, that we did not fairly tell him in advance of the fate that watts on that choice. That fate will be his progressive degradation instead of elevation, and the gradual but certain extinction of his pee as the Indian, who once roved supreme lord of this mighty land, has passed away. We can promise and assure to him equality with ourselves in the protection of all his rights of property and person: under the law, because while we had the power we gave all that, and we intended it. There is no more healthful power in a nation or a community than a thrifty, industrious, educated, moral and religious, free, rural, laboring population. The safety of gov- ernment and of capital rests securely upoa such a population. Such labor creates capital. Capital nurses and encourages such labor. There is a mutual and harmonious reliance each upon the other. We can promise, and not fear failure of the promise, to the colored man to exert all the power we may have to make his people such a ey giving all the encouragement which the law and its just and faithful administration can assure, and all the aid which the discreet and saga- cious by ong ge of capital to labor can give to elevate them to a position so enviable, and save the American portion of his race from extinction, When that time arrives they may have a just right to articipate in political affairs, aud may enjoy it. ut can we now, at this time, in good faith, make to him any promises of political concessions? I very much doubt tt. fave question, and 18 to be gravely ered; and if we are to retain one par- Ucle of respect it must be answered honestly and truthfully, At present we are without powet and have nothing to give; we can only promise; but_we know that late or soon, and we velieve ver: soon, the power to redeem what we promise, witi all its responsibilities, will be upon us. * * * the United State? candidates who are competent to roclaim the necessity of a better adapted anc more just form of government—a goveramem that shall Secure in this said to be clyilized country the right of all to life, Mberty and the pursuit of happiness.

POLITICAL NOTES. Representauves Sawyer and C. C. Washburn will probapiy ve reuominated in Wisconsin. ‘yne aemocrats of Wolfborough, N. H., ratified the nomination of Seymour and Blair by a moonlight excursion on the steamer Lady of the Lake ang nad avery pleasant time. This would seem to be a sen- sible way of ratifying. The Hon, J. M, Ashley has accepted a ietter nomi- nation from friends in his district in Ohio and asserts confidently his ability to carry it. A number of democratic papers were so much Pleased with Mr. Seymour's letter of acceptance that they republished it, Probably this was necessary in order to discover ita point. F A Western democratic editor t# soliciting republi- can subscribers, payments to be made only after Sey- mour and Blair are elected. Southern journals generally ridicule the radical cry of another civil war if tne democrats are success- ful in the Presidential campaign. “Governor Seymour's letier 13 the most able politi- cal document ever published’—New Haven paper, Pooh! The St. Louis Repudlican states that the colored men of Mississippi, since the late election, are going over en masse to the democrats. In a single county one thousand of them have procured certificates of membership of democratic clubs. Senator Buckalew is spoken of as a candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania at the State election next year. The St. Mary’s (Md.) Beacon announces the Hon. Frederick Stone as a candidate for re-election to Congress from the Fifth district. Southern political meetings are carried on in the old fashioned style.

A DEMOCRATIC BANNER was raised last evening at the corner of Newark avenue and Grove street. ComaMuNIPAW STocK YARDS.—The receipts at the stock yards forthe past week were 221 cars, con- taining 2,385 cattle, 4,799 hogs, 4,309 sheep, and 226 horses. During the same time there were slangh- tered 211 cattle, 4,300 hogs and 4,280 sheep. Newark, Darina Roppery.—Yesterday forenoon, during the temporary absence of the clerk, a tilltapper entered the office of Brown & Co.’s marble works, No. 203 Market street, and abstracted two checks, representing $675, from the drawer, besides some nine or ten dollars in money, aud made good lis escape. The clerk had only just placed the missing checks in the drawer and had been gone but a few moments. Payment has been stopped on the papers, which were made out as follows:—An order of Brown & Spuor, $614 99, and on George Brown & Co. $58 42. . SUDDEN DEATH IN THE STATION House.—About two o'clock yesterday morning a man of middle aged appearance and seemingly u mechanic, supposed to be named Francis Gannon, of 76 West Kinney atreet, died in the station under circumstances of a rather singular character. He had been seized with an apoplectic fit some six or eight hours previously, \d was removed to headquarters. He rallied, but subsequently got worse and died. gn examination of the body by the county physician Fevealed the fact that his skull had been fractured about two inches deep in the back part of the head, and the physt- cian thinks it 1s scarcely possible the fracture was caused by a fall. An inquest was ordered. The name and residence above stated were taken from some letters found in deceased’s pockets. LARGE HAUL OF ALLEGED YOUNG BURGLARS.—Yes- In conclusion, I have .a few plain words for the colored people—directly to them— truthfully, if not ably. I have a right to ad- vise them, because lam their friend. They know I am. I say to them, then, “You cannot and will not be permitted to participate permanently and sub- stantially in the political power of this country, or any ext of it. Remember what I say. You may be soothed by the illuston of a qualified suffrage. ‘That wil be for the educated and the property holders among you. They are so few that it will give you no power, not even the shadow of it. This is the white man’s country. It is his government, and he intends to keep both. You cannot and wiil not nold either, nor will either be held by others for you. You may live here, if re will, peaceable, happy and prosper- ous junder the protection of our laws just as we are protected, with no distinction or 7 is a but you cannot govern us. You caanot this is un- reasonable or unjust. It is what you say to the white man in your own countries—for you have your countries and your governments. There is a and prosperous colored government, a republic upon the model of our own. It has a Preal- dent, Senate, House of Representatives and a Judi- cial Department like ours. From it you have ex- cluded the white man. He is assured of the protec. tion of your laws, just as you are protected by ours, without distinction, But he has not, and cannot have, political power, or vote, or hold office, or par- tictpate in the administration of the government. Such 1s the republic of Liberia. That is no piace for carpet-baggers. These are in that atmosphere no attractions for them. So, also, it isin St. Domingo and Hayti. They are the colored man's govern- ments. And, if you will, you also may have other yvernments of your own, but they will be not in the Jnited States. If every white inhabitant of South Carolina—if every white man, woman or child in the Southern States should consent and agree to it, you would not be permitted by the people of the North and the West to establish a Liberia or a Dominican or Haytien government within the United States. This matter is in their hands, not ours. Nor is there to be any partnership between the white and colored man in the government of this country. There is no middie ground in this matter. Tne government must be all white or all colored. Do not Shed retended friends tell you this, or at least show ut they mean this when they shut ou out by their commands or entreaties from the Songress where they are for the time supreme? I know it 18 said, you are told, you say it too, that the suffrage once given to you and exercised cannot be taken away. Some of you even threaten that the attempt will be followed by bloodshed. That will be as you may choose. I was once a voter. It was my birthright. My ancestors, under Washington and his compeers, thought that they had forever secured the right to their descendants. It has been taken from me. The bayonet, with ree and ball, with blue coats, did it, and they will do the same for ou, when law or the color of law, or the voice of he white people bids them to do it. Our people fought them four years, and we had enough of it. You try itif you choose. I shall not fight them or you for my right to vote. It will come without that, and Micon darn — or ee it. You trust to your present who forced suffrage upon you, not for your sake, but against us. and for their own gain. You think they will stand by you? You are defuded. “Blood is thicker than water.” The masses of the people will stand by ue—by their own race, Your champions will be scattered and power- leas exceptions. Mr. Sumner, and such warlike heroes as follow such @ warlike chief, may sound loud and long and echoing exhortations to battle for you—but they will not be found in the “forlorn hope.”?. The poor Indian thought as you think when he boasted, as you do, in calm sincerity of his great and powerful allies and friends. England and France, in the supremacy of their power and in the soo | of ours, were his allies and friends, They woul stand by him tn his wars upon us; they purchased from him the scalps of our warriors, our women and our cliidren. And where now and what is the Indian? Do you understand me? I hope psa do. You have the opportunity offered to choose between perpetual peace: prosperity and advancement in all the many biessings called ctvilization—between that and hostility to us, degradation and final extermina- tion. We offer you the former. The hen geten od tempts you to the latter. As your friend | pray God to give you wisdom in your choice. A THIRD PARTY MOVEMENT. An assemblage of Spiritualists, women's rights advocates, nen of weak minds and women of strong minds, a grand conglomeration of white spirits and black, blue spirits and gray, convened at Chicago on Wednesday last for the purpose of nominating an independent ticket for the Presidency. Tne cail is- sued for the meeting was as follows:— im TRACE, VRERDOM AND PROGRES. ¢ people, hout rey arty, sex, sect or section are earnestly follctvea to prs je together in unity and concert at Crosby's Music Hail, Chicago, August 5, 1868, at ten o'clock A, M., for the Lay S94 of putting im nomination an independent candidate for President and Vice President of the United States.

The proceedings were decidedly humorous, the Convention finally adjourning in disgust on account of the dif culty of preparing a suitable platform, of which the three following planks were presented as a specimen:— Resolved, That progression in laws are natural and necess: nd the sure result of all organiza- tion, All governments have and must continue to progress. Resolved, That we are in favor of putting in nominatios for the President and Vice Presid of terday morning about eight o’clock, while on his way to court in, company with his son, a bright boy of fourteen, Justice Mills, of the police court, observed four youngsters loitering in front of the residences of Mr. Charles J, Gould and Mrs. Lindsley, on the cor- ner of Broad and Chestnut streets (the occupants of which were from home), under circumstances of a suspicious character. Leaving bis son to watch their movements the magistrate proceeded to the station house and was soon informed by @ messenger from the boy that the suspected ones had made an en- trance to Mr. Gould’s house. (Quickly returning with two officers, the Justice found two of the boys, Frank Murphy and Thomas O'Leary, rummaging the house, and two others, Thomas Fitzpatrick and Patrick O'Leary, in the street, and con- veyed them the station house. One to of the fa (furphy), the eldest, was recognized as an old offender, fe said he was after the wine, From appearaifces he will be after going to States Prison or the Reformatory.

Yesterday morning the Board of Health received information that large numbers of diseased cattie were en route to this city from the West, and that others had arrived in this city and vicinity. The President of the Board, Mr. Lincoln, therefore ordered an inspection of the cattle and drove yards in New York and New Jersey, but with what result is not yet known, A telegram was sent to Governor Fenton last evening juesting him to order an inspection of prominent railroad stations on the Erie and Central railroads, to overhaul cattle trains.and to ascertain the condl- tion of stock in transit to this city. Tel ima were also sent to Governor Ward, of New Jersey, and Governor Geary, of Fennsylvant to cause the in- 5 ion of catile trains within their respective ju- ictions. It is alleged that on one train that left the West, on which was over two hundred head of cattle, nearly fifty per cent died of disease before they reached this city.
