For the latter, the estimate is one hundred" and sixty thousand divided as follows : Maine ten thousand, New Hampshire twenty thousand, Connecticut and Rhode Island, thirty thousand and Massachusetts one hudred thousand. Add to this sixty thousand for New York and Brooklyn and we hare (two hundred and twenty thousand without any estimate for the other northern States, with theif crowded cities and towns, which it is fair to presume will more than double the number. Of this' half million, ho doubt, many thousands enlisted in the army to break up the. prosperity, de stroy the lives and desolate the homes of a people who never harmed them, but who, by their agricultural pro ducts, furnished these suffering thou sands with employment and support for their wives and children. Pnnisbment inevitably follows wrong-doing, and the meanest Radi cal is not proof, at all times, against the goading of a guilty conscience. The ruin of the South is telling with fearful force upon the prosperity of the North, and if pride did not suppress the utterances of henest con victions, thousands of its deluded people would openly curse their own folly and the villainy of their puri tan betrayers. We have rend of the fool who killed th'6 goose that laid the golden eggs ;, that folly has been re-enacted by the people of the North whose severe and protracted suffering in consequence thereof, is inevitable beceuse it is a decree of retributive justice from which there is neither appeal nor escape. The recommendation of old Spit fire for the Vice Presidonoy by the Memphis Radicals, is not likely to bo recieved with favor outside of the 'ring' whence it came. That negroes should look upon him as eminently fitted for that position, is iu keeping with their ignorance and his conduct. Having betrayed his own race, he clings to tlio negroes, attracted by that sympathy which brings together birds of a feather. The tie is not that of blood, but of kindred moral and ntcllectual attiibutcs. He has flut tered them into the belief that they are the favored sons of God. and per suaded every Dinah that fcho is the rose of Sharon, or the night bloom ing Cereus. These deluded creatures would be truly ungrateful, if they did not admire the man who has descend ed from the pedestal of God-given superiority, to equality with a race that has never risen above barbarism, except in a state of slavery; that has, in the lapse of time, left no footpriut in the path ot progress and who are now, in their native jungles, no fur tuer removed from barbarism than when first known to the ancient Egyptians, four thousand yearsago Their religion is still the worship of reptiles; their agriculturo goes not beyond the diggiug of iudigeuous roots and their chief artielo of com merco is suoh of their people as they would rather sell than cat. This is the way old Brownlow talked about his dear friends, until the devil ambition took him to tho top of Cumberland mountain. pointed to the State Capitol, whisper ed of office and emolument and promised him all, on condition that he would worship that devil and love Sambo. The temptation was ir resis'tublo, the iniuiaeulutc Brownlow full and is still true to his bargain Surely the forfeiture of his soul is an equivalent for tho Vice Presiden cy. The radicals id Congress, fearing tho decision of the Supreme Court in McCardle case, have gotten up a bill to prohibit that Court from taking cognizance of any case that may arise unler the reconstruction act. They do not feel suTo eveh under the re- quiretneut of two thirds of the Court to give validity to its dooisious, and hence this extreme measure. They are warned that such legislation will defeat them beforo u it i, ci loar that they intend to rely for success upon , bayonets rather than votes, such warnings serve only to quicken their movements towards a thorough despotism.

Yoorhecs. Delivered before the Democratic Stale Contention or Indiana. The Issues Clearly Set Fort. TerrlbU Lashing of the Badlcals. From the eloquent and logical speech of the Hou. D. W. Yoorbees, delivered on the Btb of January before ths Indiana Demo cratic State Convention, we make tbe fol lowing extracts. We regret onr space will not allow ns to publish it in full : " They (tbe Democracy) com to Uphold tb dignity of labor and to protect the far mer, mechanic end every industrial class irora tb wicked ravishes of thus drone in the public hive, who davonr all tb taxes and contribute none themselves. In the presence of such a convention, assembled for such mighty purposes, I may well stand un covered, an with deep gratitude thank yon for tb warm evidences of your confidence and esteem, as well as for tbe numerous marks of approval and kindness with which you have distinguished nie in tbe past. In my solemn opinion, I am now in tbe presence of that class of men and that cbus of princi ples which will soon take In charge the in terests of thfe nation, and bestow upon it a destiny more brilliant and commanding, more happy and powerful, thau ever tbe eye of man bos hitherto looked upon all tb annals ot tbe human race. Tbe boose, of our faith is this day founded upon tb rock of ever lasting truth. It will stand. Tempests may rage around . it, and earthquakes rock its foundations, yet it will stand, for sternal jus tic is it indwelling spirit." Of Andrew Jackson be said : - On this day, fifty-three year ago, a mil itary chieftain, at a single step, strode to tbe front of the world s theater, where all nations gazed, in startled wonder, upon bis towering and splendid form. He was crowned a hero ot giant proportions, with the universal ac claim of tb civilized world. Every quarter beneath the sun paid tribute to his lame. Uut, standing on this dazzling and danger ous eminence, with his head suddenly lifted to tb very stars, Andrew Jackson found something still mightier yet than the sword witn which ue bad achieved so much re nown. It was tbs civilized law of his coun try. " lie bowed that more than princely bead before it, and, with uosandaled foot, a Mo ot old at the burning bush, treated its piecinU as holy. In that hour his triumph was far prouder and grander than when the British forces Hod before him in dismay." Of tb sin of th Radical party, Mr. Yoor bees said: " Tbe disunion of tb Radical party to day is a sin of willful perfidy ; a sin against knowledge and consvieace ; a sin against its own solemn Injunctions ; a sin airaiust the living, whose hopes It has mocked, and agalurt . tho dead, whose sacrifices it has turned to empty nothing. Its sin is nnpar. donaUe. Let it be buried in tbe potter' field, where tb parties of the put, who bave betrayed tho people, sleep iu ever in creasing intamy togotber." Taxation assumed this form : " In the midst of these darkening days. when the laborer goes about the streets in queat of bread, and grinding is low, and the skeleton of want looks iu at tbe doors and windows of many an honest household, you: are taxed by Congress for tbe support ot standing army beyond w hat any other peo ple endures beneath the sun. 'The people ot tbe tailed estates are pay ing over fivo hundred millions of annual revenue. More than one-hair or that most enormous amount is swallowed up by the Congressional policy of reconstruction. If tbe farmer or mechanic pay twenty dollars to tbe tax gatherer, ten of it geoes as a tri bute to a vast military government, which exists in plain, open and confessed violation of tbe Constitution. If your property is ad vertised on the trees, at cross-roads, on tbe doors of public bouses for delinquent and Dnpald taxes, remember that they would not have been half so beavy, and you might ensily have paid lueui, if tbeslauding army had been aboli.bed and the expense of gov erning the f-iothern States left where it be longs, with tbe people of those states. ' Of the impoverishment of th South, be said: " And the gcberods and growing farms those plantations of mora , than oriental maguincence from which all this startling wealth was outaiued, aud which hav Been so much derided by the deciplesof new Eng land what was their value 7 1 bey were worth over one thousand four hundred mill ions of dollars, while all tbs real ettal of a similar character in New tuirlaud ras ap praised at tour hundred and seventy-five million,. Where now is all this mighty wealth of tbe houta r here is her com, her cotton and ber cattle? - Why do her inexhaustible acres lie barren aud uu worked 7 Why do ber gigantic resource, iuvite none o' the cap ital of tb world T M by does business en terprise turn away from this natural uaradise of trade T Why does the emigrant, in search of a borne, go to tbe colder, harder aud poor- j er region, ; There, you can look and bebold the reasons for yourselves. 'The Radical Congress has killed tb life, th hope and the prosperity or the most fruitful portion or tne Hepubllc.

Tb great creations of human genius, th mighty production of science, ar to bim an unpenetrable mys tery.' Mr. Brooks Telia the Badlcals What the Democrats will do. In the House on Friday 17th Inst, Mr. Brooks, of New York, said . Y intend to undo what has been done by Ibis Congress, end we shall, sooner or later, hav th power within tbe walls of tbe House to undo it all. These proceeding in Ohio and New Jersey are but the beginuing uf the revolution which has already mad its appearance elsewhere; and tbe precedents and ursrocativea and powers which the ma jority in this House la now assuming in th most revolutionary manner we uiwuu w make use of to undo all these revolutionary and violent proceedings. So tb honorable gentleman from Massachusetts might as well make uu his mind now to see tbe begiuoing of this great relactionary movement. We do not intend to deprive the negroes of the South of their liberty. W inteud to allow tbem a five fifths representation, uota three tllUis, bne, which the ucgroes in tbe North are havlntr. But we do not intend lo allow, so far as w can help it, the people of the North to be brought into negro copartnership in government on th floor of this House, or to b ruled by black majorities, by rotten boniuirh consistencies in th South. W do not Intend to be ruled by any such govern meut as that, aud all tb processes of legis lation bv which that bas been reSched, or is lo be reached.

Hancock has Issued an Important or der relative to registration in Louisiana and Texas. ' Tb occasion for It is thus explained by tb N. O. Picayune : When tb Boards of Registration mad so many rejections of voter who did not come wiihio lb letter, or eveo remotely nnder any latiludinarian Idea of tbe spirit of tbe law, tbey were chiefly blamed for it. It was af terwards made manifest that they acted un der secret but anonymous instructions, dis tributed to Ibem from headquarters.
