FUu 80AR COMMISSIONER, GEORGE GEPHARD. ‘FOR SUPERVISOR—ist District, . _, JAMES MONRO, —_—_—_————— REVERENCE FoR REBELS.—Just at this’ time the Northern Democrats show great reverence for such rebels as cling to the “lost cause.” Forrest, the hero of the Fort Pillow massacre was received with demonstrations of joy by the Democratic Convention, while Grant, Sherman and Sheridan were de@oanced. Frank Bait, the Deinocratic candidate, speaking of rebels, said : “In that contest for which they are sought to be Gisfranchiséd and © éxiled” from their homes, in thatcontest they proved themselves to be our peers.” The seme “speaker, in commenting upon Grant's expression, “Let us have peace,” says: “The peace to which Grant invites us is the peace of despotism and death.” His praise is all for rebels and his vitu“peration for the soldier to whom the country is indebted for the Union. — "The Chicago Jimes, the leading Demo‘ctatic paper of the West, in eulogising Wadé-Hampton and other rebels who participated . in the nomination of Seymour, gays: “Would to God that Lee, than whom in all> that constitutes true nobility, a better mais not—was at ‘their head—The people would rise up to do Lee reverence.” By the people, the Democracy is meant, and it ~undoubtedly reverences Lee,but what for?) Lee distingcished himself jn fighting for the cause of treason and for this he is réverenced, But the Times has a word to say for Grant. The Great General of the Union armies, who fought under the flag of his country and defeated Lee in évery contest, is spoken of by this Democratic paper as “the cattail strategist, the Jacobin candidate for President.” And thus itis all over the country, the Democrats have words for praise for traitors and nothing but _ denunciation for those who stood by the nation in its hour of darkness and peril. Wise and Vance, who hold that that the rébellion is not yet dead, but that the lost cause will live again with the success of Democracy, are statesmen and have “proved themselves to be our peers,” as Blair says, but Governor Brown, of Georgia, atid Longstreet, who advocate the Union causein the South, are maligned and abused. If Blair alludes to the cringing, fawning Democracy of the North,that has forgotten the teachings of Jackson and become the tools of their rebel betters in the South, and who are now engaged in praising ra rebels and denouncing Union Generals, he does not go far enough. Therebels are not only peers but masters of those fellows.. They, makethé. politics for the Northern Democpacy of the present day, and when. thé Southern traitors State Tights and secession, orthern doughfaces say with one voice, aafen. No loynl mancan mark the atuse of Union Generals and the ise of rebel leaders by Democrats, “ withott feéling that the méd ‘who engage in such a course are unfit to live under a free government or enjoy its protection. i ¢ # Ir is ramored that two 6fthe most -prominent Major Generals who took part in the soldiers and sailor’s gather. ‘ing held it'New York'during the Demobratic Convention, are “kicking in the trades,”” and are only, held back by very powerful influences from declaring for Grant and Colfax.’ ms : fe pee See Governor, To ee gle 9 deny that Blair in his letter to Broadhead meant revolution, The Soathern Democrats all claim that zine published=in the United States claims that that letter got him the . unanimous. nomination for Vice Presi. dent. It says, after quoting Blair's let—. ter: “It was this brave letter which . gave General Blair the unanimous 2omination for Vice President on the first Pballot. We know that incompetency and cowardice will talk about impradence in such:a distinet avowal of duty, but it cannot be denied that it pave General Blair-the nomination, and it will fire the hearts of the people’ at _. the ballot box.” This magazine speaks for the Democracy of the United States, and interprets Blair's letter to mean exactly what Republicans charge, a declaration in favor of overthrowing State governments by foree. Tne Kuklux of Tennessee, says the Atta, do not appear to be the peaceful masqueraders that their Northern defenders would have us believe, The telegraph says that a party of them, masked, actually entered Nashville on . the night of the 16th, and assassinated a Prussian jew. . The unfortunate man is said to haye been a ,‘Radical,” which is, of course, sufficient cause for his assassination, but. the real reason was probably liis having a negfo clerk, who appears to have been mortally wounded also. Yet, in the face of such outrages as these, we are gravely assured by our Democratic friends that the South is in a state of abject terrorism, and that the Southern people are oppressed bya severe military rule. If there1s any terrorism, it is in the hands of the= rebel ruffians, who murder those politically opposed to them, and proscribe every Northern man among them. Tae Wheeling, Va. Intelligencer says: “Between Mannington and Hessville are several tanneries by the rogd side, which adopt a device very suggestive of their owners’ politics. At each a fine Grant and Colfax flag floats from a \pole, and under neath the flag from a sort. of spar, is, suspended a janned hide. “fhis hide is intended to symbolize the codition of the Democracy in November.” ~~ : ~ THE railroad bridge.now in course of construction over the Ohio river, between Louisville Kentucky, and Jeffersonville, Indiana, it is stated, will be twenty-four spans ; two of these will be 870 feet each, and six 346 feet each._— The remaining sixteen spans will be 192 feet each in length. Excepting on the longest spans, the rails will be placed on the tops of the girders, these being of a class known as the Fink truss. The estimated cost of the bridge, which is to be completed by Sep r lst, 1869, is $1,600,000. he j OFFICIAL papers Mave come to light showing that the Democratic Execu» of Ohio have assessed a n of ten cents a head on each tic voter in the State, to carry 1e campaign. The County Committee are to collect it through the agency of ‘sub-committees. The last ten-cent contribution by the Democracy was for the benefit of Vallandigham exclusively. WHEN Blair, in 1860, during the campaign in Indiana, branded the Democracy as a “vile, miserable party,” and abused Douglas so fiercely, Dan Voorhees called Blair the “prince of blackguards.” Blair in return branded Voorhees as a “hell-hound.” Now the “bell-hound supports the {prince of black guards.” A nice couple traly. Riewarp L, THOMAS, . formerly of this city, has been appointed by Governor Haight, Commissioner of Deeds, to reside at Virginia City. E. L. Pratt, formerly, of Sierra county, has written a letter declaring himself in full _sympathy with the Republican party.
