4 “POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE. THE CAMPAIGN IN MAINE. Among the Factory Operatives—H They Speak and Feel—A Reign of a Superintendents of the Mills Ini Them—The Masses in Sympathy With the Democracy. Lewisron, Androscoggin sete Me Maine, Sept. 5, 1868, Thave during the past two days circulated among the operatives of the woollen and cotton mills and other manufactories that ne the rocky banks of the Androscoggin river. The results of my observations are not of the most cheering nature, In nearly all of the factories I flad the employés complaining of se- vere burdens, small pay and little em- ployment, They generally agree that the cause of all their troubles is the mal tration of public affairs by the dor rome party, and they sigh for peace and ‘hetter times. While the great majority expregs a preference for the conservative party they %ranxly admit that upon their votes depends theTy bread and butter, Nearly ail the manufacyo%ies are run by superintendents, Who, notwiths“anding that the great body of stock is owned b% democrats, are radicals, and therefore exercise “their little brief authority to compel those indy” ‘them to vote as they do, Hundreds in Lewis- tom, auburn, Little Falls and other towns would '.adly vote the conservative ticket were they per- Mnitted to do so, but as it has t customary in the past to dispense with sorvices of those pe 80 vote they are afraid to go to the lls except to voie the ticket of their snper- intendents, lest they should be thrown out of nilies suffer. The fact employment and their at Little Falls and 3 do not end Jt is not customary with the superin- stockhold employed. u tendents to say to the discharged, “You are dis- missed for voting the ticket,” but it is nocrats to find soon after the elec- vice: no longer required, The superintendent of the Bales Company has set. Agood example by inttmating ery employé ‘will be p itted to vote as he sees fit. One of the largest stockholders of the Lisbon or Little Falls Mills is Solomon Moses, of Bath, who ts a democrat, and will see that the operatives are protected in the r xercise of the franchise. Notwitlistanding the petty despotism ofthe super- intendents, a personal canvass by the democrats, they claim, has resulted in learning that 1,000 out of 1,666 voters employed in the mills of Lewiston and Auburn will vote the consérvative ticket. This will largely decrease the republican majority. Then there are on the river extensive boot and shoe manu- factories, saw mills and machine shops that will swell up the majorities for Seymour and Blatr if a fair election is permitted. The Irish vote last year was thown for the republican ticket, as they are mostly employed in the factortes and machine shops, The democra’s aud republicans who have made the canvass both agree that the Irish vote will be about equally divided. Asa very heavy portion of the stock in these mills is held by democrats in Boston, New York and other citi¢s, the democrats of Maine express the hope that they will bring such a pressure to bear upon the tyrannical superintendents as to deter them from interfering With the votes of the operatives. They feel sanguine of gaining two thousand votes from the operatives alone if they are permitted to poll their full vote as their conscience may dictate, The democrats of this county have made a close ° from the blacks.) If even we wished to we could not. Ever since the Yankees brought you here and sold you to us, we have had ali the care, anxieties and responsil upon our shoulders, Thank | God, we have them no longer.

We propose to give you every right that we have; to protect you in your | oriaeg) and property, and to give you a fair chance efore the law. But we don’t intend to let you ri over White people. If you think that you can I tell you that you are mistaken, for we are not afrald of hegroes. (Cheers.) If we were not afraid to con. front a government that had uniiiited command of mien aud money we are not going to be scared off or ridden ever by yon, Let me impress that upon your minds, (A radical negro in the erowd here asked him who freed the blacks.) Yhe Yankees did not free you. yen after Mr. Lincoln’s proclamation fora tuned he offered to let us come back into the Union with all our slaves if we would lay down our arias, And the radical party, which claims to be your best friend, passed a resolution in Congress declaring tiat the War was not waged for the put- pose of emancipating slaves. You were fr by the events of the war, and until the white people of Georgia in 1565 ratified tne amendinent to fhe con- stitution you were as much their slavesas ever. Let me advise ra to keep on good terms with those white peopl’, for if yon listen to the teachings of scalawags and carpet-baggers and make war upon tiem you have everything to lose and nothing to gain, They know your wants and capabilities, For over two hundred years they have been taking care of and making Christians of you. (Cheers.) Mr. Toombs then turned to the ‘Whites and continued his arraignment of the radical party with considerable force, Referring to the present State government he said it was bogus. If was the choice neither of blades nor whites. Bayonets, had put express agents discharged Massachu- setts convicts into office; but the day was cee. when the true men of Georgia would repudiate thi whole foul concern, The carpet-baggers next claimed his attention, They were the very lowest of Northern society, and being unable to rise above the surface of the filth and mire of their obscurity at home had come South for the purpose of being voted into prominence by Ignorant negroes, As for the scalawags, his contempt for them was beyond utter- ance. His lips should not be sullied by an extended notice of them. They were beneath the notice of the meanest negro in Georgia. (A voice, “How about Joe Brown?) He was sorry to say that he had voted for the creature three times. It had been said that Joe Brown could not be sunk; that he always kept Leia Yes, he doats ay he rots. (Loud cheers and jaughter.) 2B NORTHERN DEMOCRACY AND CONSERVATIVE UNION SOLDIERS, After discussing at length the political position in the State Mr. Toombs referred to the nominations at New York in July last. He said that the Northern democracy there met the people of the South ina spirit of Uae | and friendship. Men who had fougut against the South bravely, earnestly and honestly extended the hand of pee to those Who had fought against them for four long years. With loud and oft repeated cheers the Conven- tion of ex-federal officers and soldiers had endorsed that plank in the democratic platform which de- clares the reconstruction laws to be usurpations, to be revolutionary, unconstitutional and void, (Tre- méndois cheering.) He could honor and support men like Blair and Hancock—(loud cheering)-—-and the other inen that fought against him; for now that the struggie is over they scorned to strike a fallen foe. The platform and the candidates were accept- able to the people of the South. ‘The first announced those fundamental principles which are necessary for the perpetuation of republican liberty. Mr. Sey- mour was a statesman of the first order. True, he had diifered with him and during the war gave his earnest support to the Uniou cause, but he was now Willing to cover the pages of the past and meet the canvass, and they express their confidence in their ability to reduce the republican majority of last year of 1,595 to about seven hundred. Dr. Garcelon, the democratic candidate for Congress, has always acted in the past with the republicans, but has pub- lished an address that is marked with sound wis- dom. He is opposed by S. P. Merrill, a man of no personal Geuanty, and will Ukely be @ support to ne ticket. 1am unoficially informed by republican authority that the personal canvass of the State that has just been completed indicates the election of the radical ticket by from six to ten thousand majority if a full vote is polled by both parties, I have not heard the estimate of the democratic canvass of votes, but knowing ones who are supposed to have a clear knowledge bet even that the radicais will not carry the State wy seven thousand majority, One of the greatest drawbacks to the success of the democracy is the anti-war record of some of their nominees. Pilisbury is a deaa weight on nc- count of his opposition to the government in its darkest hours. Frank Blair’s revolutionary utter- ances have also done much injury, as well as the an- tecedents of men on the State ticket. CEORGIA, Democratic Mass Meeting at Waynesboro Large Number of Negroes Present—Speeches by Robert Toombs and Others=Much En- thusiasm, WAYNESBORO, Sept. 4, 189%, The great democratic mass meeting in Burke county came off yesterday near this village, and was in every respect a success. Probably five thousand persons were present, at least half of whom were ne- groes. This having been one of the largest slave counties before the war, the white population com- prises a well educated, refined and respectabl ele- ment of society. Quite a large number of beautiful women were present, none being more enthustastic than they. Ina fine grove of pines rough benches were placed in semicircular rows around a covered stand, which was tastefully dgcorated with miniature United States flags, two large colors belng suspended from trees to each side of the stand. Several banners bearing democratic mottoes were also observed. Altogether the arrangements were in good taste, and from the number of Stars and Stripes,displayed the most ultra radical would have been unable to charge the good people of Burke with being Jacking in “Joyalty.” ‘The proceedings were opened with a very impres- sive prayer, the entire audience standing. Major Cummings, candidate for elector from this distri was then introduced. He made a lengthy speec quite moderate in sentiment as well as language. Confaning himself to the present deplorable condition of Georgia, he denounced the radicals asthe cause and declared that the present State government was notthe legal one, Scalawags and carpet-baggers Teceived a raking, While the only allusion made to | General Grant was that the only recommendation he had for the office of President was his military feputation, Horatio Seymour and Frank Blair were jJauded, as were also Gencrais Hancock, Ewing, Steadman, Franklin and other Union generals who support the democratic ticket. The specch was a rather Yong one, and though frequently applauded it contained nothing new. ROBERT TOOMBS ON A MODERATE TACK. As Mr. Toombs came forward he was received with cheers. He remarked that years had passed since he last addressed a Burke county audience—years of sorrow and gladuess, sunshine and gloom. He met the vast assemblage with mingled feelings of pain and picasure—pain, because he missed so many bright faces he had seen go often; because, in- | but, 8o God m: South on terms of equality and friendship. General Frank Blair was a man of ability, and had served in the federal army With distinction, His corps had done more harm to the people of Georgia than any other, but Georgians cherished no feelings of enmity to him, As he had frankly, manfuily and honestly differed With the South on the subject of secession, $0 was he now by her side in this great struggle for white supremacy and liberty. He had no prejudice ageing a single Northern man. He was proud to Know that he, in common with the whole Southern people, had two miliions of friends at the North, and whether they were called copperheads or war democrats mattered very little, Mr. Toombs here referred to several prominent Northern men, and named Mr, Seymour, of Connec- ticut, among them, He felt a warm friendship for the glorions little State of Connecticut. It was tho first of the Northern States to hurl from power the radical party. (Cheers.) The people there saw the issues clearly and decided without hesitation, What were those issues? The principal one, and tat which interested him the most, was the reconstruction laws which Congress had forced upon the South. Connecticut saw an attempt made to degrade the South, to place six millions of whites beneath the heels of four millions oi blacks, and, Yankee State as she is, she rebelled agaist it, (Loud cheering.) THE FINANCIAL QUESTION AND NATIONAL DEBT. There was another issue before the North which the radicals could not answer or meet to the satisfac- tion of the voters. ‘This Was the financial question. Taxes bad been piled upon the people until they could no longer bear the burden, and they called aloud for relief, The bah was of no particular interest to the South, Here the people were not pay. ing many taxes for the reason that they had nothing $o be taxed, and if even they had there was no money to pay them with, (Laughter.) ‘The issue, then, tn- teresied the North alone. Tle United States govern- tment had incurred @ debt of three billions, and the great question 1s as to how this siall be paid. The bondholders say in gold; the taxpayers say in green- backs; some suggest repudiation, The speaker did, not care m what manner the = issue ig “decided. If the Northern people ever repudiate the debt he will not feel a moment's uneasiness. It was a matter of indigerence to him if everyvody in the land knew that he would hear of the repudiation of that debt with great equanimity, (Laugiiter.) He wouldn't lose a dollar by it, At the same tit © would say that if the Northern people decide that it be paid in gold he was perfectly eatis- o So will he be if they say it shail be patd in nbacks. ‘They hold the bonds, they incurred the and the issue arising therefrom belongs to them alone. The South has nothing to do with it, Hi DESIRES PRACK.

He had fought for WWherty and for constitu. tional rights and would never rest content without then. As God was his Judge he had never taken up arms agi the constitution of the United Staves, but egainet the political party whom he had predicted would destroy them, Had not his predic- ton be fulfilled? He told the large audience be- fore him that they were engaged tn the last struggle for American liberty, If the democracy failed this country would be ruled by despots for years to come. | Mr. Toombs closed by urging the people to work hard for the democratic ticket, so that it might be elected and General Grant be left at home to smoke his Havana cigars and taik about horses, This was the only allusion be made to the Geueral duriog the entire speech. After Mr. Toombs had concluded Mr. Du Bose made a speech, the greater portion of which was addressed to the negroes, who cheered Instily. The large crowd then partook of dinner, The ladies’ table was splendidiy spread and ornamented, while the quantity of food prepared was positively beyond con. ception, When allhad feasted the crowd returned tothe stand and were addressed by General A, R. Wright, of Augusta, and several colored men made specches to those of their race. Inthe night there corr of meeting th Who were before ‘him freemen, he met them as an oppressed and downtrodden people. E h nt to fully express his sentiments was Lying news- | paper correspondents (here Mr. Toombs looked | ard at your correspondent) bad come here and written to the North that he was using tucendiary language. When he spoke the truth his language Was distorted and dectured incendiary. Thus he met | them with pain, for his tongue was tled. There was, however, some pleasure aud that was derived not | * only from their presence, but also from the prospect | which was opening for them and their freedom. | From the midst of the darkness of despotism came a light of hope that Seymour and Blair—(cheera)— | would be elected.

D. Keyes is stumping California for Sey- mour and Biair, The Cincinn&i Xnquirer says he was one of the “oldest major generals in the army of the Potomac,” and the Pittsburg Commerciat inti- mates that that was the reason he was called ‘““Moth- er Keyes.” The Boston Traveller, referring to the comparative- ly small republican majority in Maine last year, said it was “an excellent one to gula upon” and has “no doubt it will be gained upon and that largely, per- haps Immensely.”” The republican nominees for the Legislature of Wisconsin are very generaily instructed to vote for Hon. Mat H. Carpenter for United States Sena- tor in place of Doolittle. Hon, Amasa Cobb, of Wisconsin, who introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives in favor oftaxing United States bonds, has been renominat- ed for Congresa, The Convention passed a resolu- Uon declaring that “for the government to withhold or extort any portion of the principal or interest of the debt is a violation of the letter and spirit of the laws under which it was contracted, and demands our stern rebuke and disapproval.” Some of the radical papers think Pendleton com- mitted a blunder tn sending that despatch about the state of the canvass in Ohio to McClernand, and that the latter exhibited his stupidity in publishing it. Itis just such trifling mistakes that loses many a battle, The question now is whether Seymour will—to quote Shakspeare in his case just once more—“take up arms against that sea of troubles” he complains of, “and by opposing end them." It would have been “nobler in his mind” not to have eatered upon the bosom of that turbulent sea at all. ‘The season has arrived fora fuil crop of political outrages of all sorts by all parties. They are already becoming as plenty as blackberries in August. Mr. A. G. Olmstead has been nominated by the republicans of the Thirteenth Pennsylvania district for State Senator. Ie was formerly Speaker of the House. It is said that the radical committee at Washing- ton advised the expulsion of the negroes from the Georgia Legislature. “it was intended thus to sat- isfy the Northern masses that the radical party was not in favor of negro equality! Another theory of the affatr is that it was got up to furnish an excuse for Congress reassembling and again reconstructing the South, The true theory is, perhaps, that the radicals have discovered that the negro equality question in the South, like a two-edged sword, cuts both ways, and that the anti-negro suffrage radicals in the North will not endorse the extreme doctrine of thelr brethren in the South, Hence a side show of some sort until after election, Alexander Long, of Ohio, says Ben Wood was one of the men who intrigued Seymour's nomination. No wonder the Argus, thinks the Albany Journal, calls Mr, Seymour the “policy candidate. A Washington correspondent of the Boston Journal states that the probability of a September seasion of Congress ts dally growing less, Letters from several Western republican members untversally advise against a meeting On the 21st, and the pressure from the South has considerably abated. The campaign Grant and Colfax Club, however, have appointed a commitice to wait on Senator Morgan and General Schenck and urge tuem to issue a cali that a session ‘was necessary. Republicans in Washington city and elsewhere at 4 distance are flocking homeward, thetr expenses being paid out of the electioncering fund, Postmaster General Randall has returned to Wash- ington from the West and reports the political ex- cltement in the places he has visited at fever heat. So much the worse for the party that is laid out in the cold next November, The Worcester Spy states that all the signs indl- cate that William Clafin will bo nominated as the republican candidate for Governor of Massa- chusetta by @ vote of three-fourths of the Convention to be held to-morrow, A remarkable cave has been discovered in Con- necticut, A radical paper states that tho most ox- traordinary “cave in” Connecticut will be found to be the democratic party next November.

Choice Extracts from the Writings of a Southern Democrat and a Representative Man of the South—The Richmond Examiner ‘The following extracts are taken from a volume of the most select and spicy articles of the late John M, Daniel as published originally in the Richmond Exam- iner. Mr. Daniel was a thoroughiy representative man of the South, as well as one of its most vigorous and fearless writers, Noone did more to stimulate and gnstain the war feeling against the North, and no one dealt heavier blows at Jef Davis and the weak rebel authorities, The volume was compiled and published lately by hia brother, Frederick S. Daniel, who truly says in his preface, ‘These writings pre- sent atrue reflex of the spirit in which the conflict was waged,’? Unfortunately, too, he might have sald they represent a spirit not yet entirely allayed:— ON PRESIDENT LINCOLN, {From the Examiner, March 4, 1891.) Northern federalism has sent a creature whom no one can hear with patience or look on without dis- gust. We have all heard of a King of Shreds and Patches ; but in the first of ‘ Free Presidents” we have the delightful combination of a Western county lawyer with @ Yankee barkeeper. No American of any section has read the oratory with which he hag strewn his devious road to eRe ROR: condensed ips of imbecility, buffoonery and vulgar malig- , Without & blush of shame, It is with a bitter pang. that we remember that these samples of utter lackguardism have already gone to all the earth translated into all the languayes that men speak, to justify the worst representations that our worst enemies have ever made of the national degra- dation to which they pretend republican government must ever lead, But all personal antipathies are lost in the deep sentiment of apprehension which must atiect every thinking man when he remembers the terrible signifi. cance of this beastly figure. Whether we are to be governed by a gentleman or ruled by a baboon would r comparatively little were each the repre- sentative of constitutional government. But with Lincoln comes something worse than slang, rowdy- brutality and oll moral filth; something worse 1 all the tag and rag of Western grog shops and kee factories, headed by Bob, Prince of Rails, and that successor to Miss ‘Lane, in diamond ear- Qvops and with ivory fan to wave over the faces of the diplomatic corps in the East Room, while urgin; them “not (9 be too warm im fhe cause.” With al ee sy arbitraty power. The first of the free Presidents gets to the seat of government in the dis- guise of a foreigner and by the nocturnal fight of a c jence stricken murderer tn purpose; he ig in- auguraied to-day as John Brown was hung, under the months of cannon levelled’ at the citizens whom he ys to protect, and with the bayonets of mer- cenary battallous commanding every road to the fountain of merey and justice. What can come of aul this but civil war and public rain? HE YANEES A COWARD AND KNAYE, {Prom the Examiner, July 2, 1861.) Cowardice is carefully inculcated on the Yankee from his birth; and lf he be not @ coward he must be a fool who won't take education, But he is no fool; for, while he is taught that fighting 1s unprofit- able, and therefore to be avoided, he is instructed at the same time that cunning and sharpness and cheating are very creditable and very prefitables and no one learns these latter lessons more Regd and rapidly than he, Me is born like other people, but becomes a coward and a knave from severe training and careful education, Every day we hear it said and see it written that the people of the North are personally as prave as the people of the South, It ia wholly untrue, We are their superiors, not only because we are more accustomed to and more skilfal im the use of arms, but also because their naviral courage hag been carefully eradicated by education; and oe as carefully encouraged, fostered and im- roved. What ! that people brave whose foremost and most admired men have been kicked, caned and cowhided as unresistingly as spaniel dogs! THE YANKEE SELFISH. [From the Examiner, August 14. 1961.] But what will not any Yankee do and C4 at the command of interest! What principles will he not adopt, what professions will he not make, what col- ors Will he not wear, what skin will not grow over his bones, when they command money and when thrift will follow his tiny When all the North was united by undisguiséd hatred of the South, till their nation of miliions seemed one man—the South still had many Northern friends, We had not far to go should we desire to see them—they were collected around the doors of every department of the new government. TUPT HUNTER AND TOADY. from the Examiner, August 23, 1961.] Although tuft-hunting is studied asa science and pursued as a profession in Europe, yet the Yankees have such remarkable natural talents for toadyism, flunkyism and tait hunting that they beat the pro- fessors of the art of cringing by force of sheer natu- ral genius. In other countries tuft hunting ts follow- ed because it is a profitable species of meanness; but the Yankee is a toady because he’can no more refrain from boot-licking than acat can keeps its paws off a mouse. Utterly destitute of self-respect and manliness, the Yankee’ must prostrate himself before something which he believes to be greater than himself, He loves to fawn about the feet of European monarchs and nobiemen, and, like the ancient Egyptian, he is ready to worship anything from Apis down to an onion or @ grasshopper, His appetite for toadyism 1s omnivorous. He prefers travelling lords and rinces, but in default of these legitimate victi it uft-hunters he hunts down all sorts of small game, Dancing women, Japanese ambassadors, English authors, Cabinet officers, Congressmen, Hungarian refugees and many of Barnum’s most remarkable monsters have been In their day the gods of Yankee idolatry. Many of our readers have at levees and Pe See witnessed the elaborate self-abasement of the Yankee funky. Som ing to worsh!p and fawn upon fs just as es- sential to the Yankee as his “help” and his counting house. If he is rich and gan go abroady he dishonors and degrades the name of American by his coarse, low and slavish flattery of small German princes and unscrupulous French counts, He has won thronglt- out Europe the reputation of being the most obse- quions aud ridiculous of hunkies 3 THB SOUTH WILL NEVER PAY TUB YANKEE WAR prer,. [From the Examiner, May 1, 1862.) Turn the subject over in any there is little ot of revenue for the federal treasury from cor fons, even inthe impossible event of con- quest, Uf the United States should by any chance or mischance succeed fi subduing the Southern States and bringing them again into the Union their true financial policy would be the proclamation of gene- amnesty, the restoration, if possible, of a fraternal ing, and the tmposition only of such taxes on the barged section as they impose on the otier. Even if the policy of robbery and wholesale eontis- cation could be carried into effect it would be no other than a repetition of the folly of the clown who ere the goose for the golden egg. On the whole, iC is plain that in no form or shape will the South, by any possibility, ever contribute, either willingly or ‘unwillingly, to the Liquidation of the Yankee war debt, ON GENERAL BUTLER. [From the Examiner, May 21, 1562, The atrocious order issued by the federal General Butler at New Orleans is characteriatic and worthy of that proven coward, He who turned white and trembled all over at the Charleston Convention before the menaces of personal chastisement, which his roguery provoked from a tHeman in this State, 1s brave as Nero, or a eunuch ruling the seragiio of a Turk, to the women of Loulsiana, The General issues an order to this effect:—That the federal troops have in yatn oifered their compliments to the ladies of New Oricans, and having been “rudely” treated by them, the Commanding General declares that in future, should any Southern woman express her aversion to Yankee soldiers or treat them “rudely,’? she shall be considered by authority wench of the town, and treated accordingly by the troops. Butler has improved upon the Austrian generals None but a coward of his stamp and race could have imagined or issued such an order, none ever have sunk into equal libidinous flithiness and depravity. But jet us not reproach Butler. Let us wait to see the consequences of his order before we blame nim, We have now to learn whether Southern men love anything better than whole skins and ignominious lives; for if anything will arm the hand of the male population of New Orleans it wlll be this order and the first attempt to cxecute it, * * * * Butthey are soon to find that all cannot be so ended. The in- vader will shortly render death more tolerable than life, They submit to save their tamilies; their fam- ilies Will not be saved by submission, and then they will rise, one by one, content to die if they can send agingle Yankee devil back to hell before they quit the world themsely ON GENERAL PoPR. [From the Examiner, Sept. 6, 1862.) A painful rumor throws a gloom over the spirit of the Southern public in the hour of victory. It is feared that General Pope has been mortally wound- ed. We sincerely hope that this disastrous report is destitute of the least foundation tn trath; indeed, tt is 80 Lap htc that this noble friend of the South should have got within the reach of a bullet, we may still Matter ourselves that his services will long be enjoyed by the Southern Confederacy. It ts our earnest prayer that God protect that precious life; that he may preser fh head, hig heels, his tongue, his hand and all the members of that valu- able boily, from bullets, steel and rope.

Unaccustomed in peace to the indecent haste of railroad travelling, McCiellan adopted in war the Sedate tactics of the mud turtle. He manifested no fondness for former pursuits, except a passionate affection for spades and pickaxes, a reverence for trenches ‘and a sublime fervor for embankments, He developed the sirangest liking for mud and marshes, and no muskrat ever delighted in ditches half so much ashe. Some accused him of letting out the war to his old friends, the contractors, at so much the cubic foot, but Lincoln paid no heed to these satirists, bellevmg with McClellan that the best way to extricate the natton from a diMeulty was to excavate or exhume it, Accordingly McClellan continued to excavate for nearly a year, and at the expiration of that time was found by Lincoln at Har- b. as ub cunciuder George liad had his ay. “FIGHTING JOR" TOOKER. ‘ {From the Examiner, May 7, 1863.) The depravity of Northern seutiinent could not be more forcibly exhibited than in the expectations which that people had formed from such a mounte- bank and bragyart as the now beaten and disgraced Joseph Hooker, That he is a man without faith, trath, honor, or any of the distinguishing qualities of a gentleman, ts established by the fact that in the old army he was held in ered by his tellow offi- cers, who refused to tolerate his society, and that when he was appointed. to the supreme direction of the federal forces at Fredericksburg, men of respect. ability, like Generals Summer aud Franklin, retired in disgust from their commands, OPINION OF ENGLAND.

ESTIMATE OF GENERAL GRANT. [From the Examiner, March 29, 1864.} Strange to say, the South regards the appointment of Grant to supreme command with & sort of satis- faqtion. They believe this favorite Yankee general to be nothing else than what ts cailed, in homely phrase, a humbug. They consider him formtdanle only in fact that, having the confidence of the Yankees, and the support of their porecmaens he may bring together larger military forces and em- loy more unlimited resources than any general of leas celebrity among his countrymen. Neither our army, our generals nor our people entertain much respect for the military cenecity of this ofticer, who has won reputation solely by the follies and faults of Jefferson Davis. But they do hold him In respect by virtue of the formidable numbers that always attend his standard, and which will now be con- trolied by him more than ever before, ‘This opposite appreciation of Graat by the two belligerents is characteristic of both peoples. North admires success; the South, merit. ‘rhe fault and folly of the Yankees is their overweening adint- ration for mere success, without regard to means— whether it be in generalship, statesmanship, for- tune making, pulpitizing, impudence, Insolence, vulgarity, or any other pursuit or characteristic, reputabie or disreputable. Grant as @ general, Seward as a litician, Lincola as an unworthy winner of Me Presidency by lottery, Barnum as the prince of humbug-mongers, Beecher as the cleverest of religious hypocrites, Heenan as a scientific bruiser, Law and Vanierbilt as millionnatres by infinite frauds. Butier as model pliferer and despot—these are the sort of worthies whose lives some Yankee Fuller will write for the admiration of remote Yau- kee generations, RECONSTRUCTION, {From the ixaminer, Jon, 21, 1864.) “Reconstruction” is an absorbing topic with the enemy at present, The fighting betng so nearly con- cluded, Lee's army exterminated, Johnston’s starved vo death, Beauregard’s buried under the rains of Sumter, it becomes a serious question what is to be done with the rebels.

We drove out one morning to see Farmer Beecher. We found him farming in the parior, with his wife, men ser- vants and maid servants about him, surrounded by vegetables, fruit trees, grape vines and tobacco. Commend us to Plymouth church farming in our old age; for it 1s an easy and simple process of profitable production—some thirty, some sixty and some an hundred fold. In the luxurious parlor, flied with the odor of banks of flowers, you could see the large and liberal collections made in Plymouth church on the Lord’s day. “Godliness is profitable for all things,” especially for farming. Brother Beecher was suffering from catarrh, We prescribed opty and he said he would try ft, but we saw e had not faith, as a hopper, and, of course, he will neglect it and go on and be punished. He seemed patient and resigned, ruminating, probably, on the great harvest which will fill the granuries of be My with sturdy farmers and believers like miself, Yesterday was tho Lord's day; so we wandered into the woods overlooking the village, river and Grant's I id. We stumbled at noonday on an Ethiopian camp meeting, @ good deai mixed, a sort of satinet affair. There were four very black men in the pulpit, fat and well fed. One was addressing the mixed muititude of two or three thousand. We drew near, took oif our hat and listened like one io to perish. He spoke emphatically and im- pressively. He made an error in quoting a of scripture and we came away. How olten do clergymen in the pulpit commit such errors? We attended ® camp meeting in Virginia in 1830 and another in Ohio in 1855, but this colored camp meet- ing at Peekskill 1s the most orderly and well con- ducted of the three. It will continue,the Lord. rte through the whole of this week; so if the “Wicked- est Man in New York” or any of the weak trans- gressors of Wall street wish to be saved they bave a chance, Here is & high school or seminary of learning on an exceedingly high hill, where thé sons of General Fremont are preparing themselves for obsourity. Grant's Island of grapevines, opposite this pic- turesque village, languishes and yields no great future promise. The liarvest is the summer is ended and all the rurallzing belies of the city are packing up their bandvoxes to return to the gayetes of city life. They look fully ripe for any and all kinds of mischier, Grant and Colfax Will run slow in the river conn- ties, but in the rurai districts aud the great West they will carry ai! before them.

(From the Philadelphia Press, Sept. #.) In accordance with the announcement of the poste Ponement of the third day's proceedings in conse: quence of the unfavorable state of the weather, the contests fixed for that day took place yesterday. The rain, which fell quite heavily in @ portion of the morning, threatened to compel a further postpone ment, but the sun breaking forth towards noon, and afresh breeze springing up rapidly evaporated the water that had collected on the track, and by the hour fixed for starting the course was in splendid condition. As large as the attendance on the pre vious days, it was far surpassed yesterday. Single, double, tandem and four-in-hand teams, filed with ladies and gentlemen, for hours rolled in an unceas- ing stream into the park, and at the time determined upon for the commencement of the races thousands were upon the ground. Never before was so great a concourse assembled at Suffolk Park, which 1a mainly attributable to the intense interest felt in the contest between the horses Lady Thorn and Moun- tain BOF. the race between Lucy and George Wilkes being deemed of minor importance. The betting was in favor of Lady Thorn, $100 to $80 being freely offered as against Mountain Boy, which was, hows ever, readily accepted by the admirers of the latter. As between Lucy and George Wilkes poo's were sell- ing at $75 to $23 and $50 to $10 in favor of the former, it being apparently the universal impression that Lucy would win easity. Thousands of dollars changed hands at the conclusion of the contests, bat the result of that between Lucy and George Wilkes overturned the calculations of many who felt sure of pocketing their pools. The first race called for the day waa that between Lucy and George Wilkes, who answercd promptly the signal to prepare, Upom drawing lots ihe poe was won by George Wilkes.
