Within four days 1 nave been to every book binder in tne city, and not a bit of work can 1 get. Bat yon nave tried nothing else I What else can I try?" Why. anything you can do." Yes: I've tried other thinira. 1 have been to more than a dozen of my tnends and offered to help them if thev would hire me. And what did you mean to do for them I offered to post their accounts. make out bills, or attend at the coun ter." Mrs. Stanwood emiled as her hus band srioke thus. VV bat makes you smue r tie asked. To think that you should have masined that you would find work in such places. But how is Mark Leeds?" "He has nothing in his house to eatl" It was a shudder that crept oyer the wife s frame now. "Why do you tremble, wife "Because when we have eaten our breakfast to-morrow morning we shall have nothing." "What cried A'eter stanwood. half starting from mean that?11 his chair; do you I do.' "But our flour?" "All cone. I baked the last this afternoon." "But we hare pork "You ate the last this noon," "Then we must starve !" trroaned the stricken man, starting across the room. Peter Stanwood was a book binder by trade, and had been out of employ ment over s month. He was one of those who generally calculate to keep about square with the world, and who consider themselves particularly for tunate if thev keen out of debt, lie was now thirty years of age, and had been married eight years. Ho had three children to provide for, besides himself and wife, and this, together ith house rent, was a heavy dratt upon his purse, even when work was plenty, but now there was nothing. -Maria, De gala, stopping ana gaz- tng his wile in tne lace, we must starve ; 1 nave not a penny in tne world! "But do not despair, JPeter. lry ain to-morrow for work. You may find something to do. Anything that is honest is honorable, bhould you make but a shilling a day we should not starve. "But our house rent? "Trust me for that. The landlord shall not turn us out. If you will en- n , . Tll gage to noa some work to ao a ii see that we nave nouse room. '-I'll make one more trial, uttered Peter, despairingly. But you must go prepared to ao nything." . Anything reasonable, Maria. But what do you call reasonable, Peter ?" "Why anything decent. The wife felt almost inclined to smile, but the matter was too serious for that, and a cloud passed over her race, one anew iici utuuauu o u. sitioo, and felt sure he would find no work. She knew he would look for work which would not lower him in the social scale, as be had once or twice expressed it. However, she knew it would be of no use to say any thing to him now, and she let the mat ter pass. Un the following morning tne last bit of food in the house was placed upon the table. Stanwood could hard ly realize that be was penniless and without food. For years he had been gay, thoughtless and fortunate, mak ing the most of the present, and lea? iog the future to look out for itself. Yet the truth was naked and clear, and when he left the house he said : "something must be done. No sooner had the husband gone than Mrs. Stanwood put on her bonnet and shawl. Her eldest child was a girl seven years old, and her youngest four, one asked ner nrsc ooor neign bor if she would take care of her chil dren until noon. These children were known to be good and quiet, and they were taken cneertuwy. inen xurs. Stanwood locked up her house and went away, she returned at noon. bringing some dinner for ber children. and went away again. She got home in the eveuing before her husband, earrving a basket on her arm. Well. "eter. she asxea, alter ncr hnshand-AiadntiejtejAJinjlgatlC, "what npl t . . .

I have been to a hundred places, but it is the same every place. It is nothing but tne eternal no 1 no 1 no ! I'm tired and sick of it " "But what sort of work have you offered to do ? ' "Whv I went even so far as to offer to tend a liquor store down down. The wit amiled. "Now. what shall we do ?" uttered Peter, spasmodically. "Why, we'll eat supper first, and then talk the matter over. "Supper I have you got any 7 "Yes, plenty of it." "Rat von told me you had none." "Neither had we this morning, but A ve been after work and tound some. "You I been alter work I uttered her husband, in surprise. "But how ? where t what r "Why, first I went to Mrs. Snow's : I knew her girl mas sick, and I hoped she might have work to be done. I went to her and told her my story, and she set me to work at once, doing her washing. She gave me food to bring home to the .children, and paid me three shillings when I got through." "What! have you been out washing for our butoher's wife?" said Peter, looking very muoh surprised. , "Of course I have, and have thereby earned enough to keep us in food through to-morrow, at any rate, so to morrow you may oome home to din ner." "But how about rent?" "Ob, I have seen Mr. Stimson, told I I I i r . . r v v y L! l W W E:- "J I DELAWARE, him iust how we are situated, and of - fered him my watch as a pledge for the r . - l. payment oi tne rem wiuuu two mouins, with the interest on all arrears up to that date. 1 told him A did the busi ness because you were away looking for work. "So he's rot your watch ?' "No he wouldn't take it. He said if I would become responsible for the payment he would let it rest." "Then we have got a roof over us, and feed for to-morrow. But what next ? Oh ! what a curse these hard times are." "Don't despair, Peter, for we shall not starve. I've enough engaged to keep us alive." "Ah eh? What's that?" "Why. Mr. Snow has enrared me to carry small packages, baskets, bundles. &c. to rich customers. Ale has to give up one of his horses." What do you mean, Maria 7 Just what I say. When Mr. Snow came home to dinner I was there, and I asked him if he ever had light arti cles which he wished to send round to his customers. Never mind all that was said. He did happen to be in want of just such work done, though he had intended to call on some of the idlers who lounjro about the market. Ale promised to give me all tne work he could, and I am to be there in rood season in the moraine. "Well, that M a pretty go I My wife turned butcher's boy! You won't do any such thing." "And why not ?'' "Why not! Because because " "Say, because it will lower me in the social scale." Well, so it will.' Then it is more honorable to lie still, and starve, too, than to earn hon est bread by honest work. I tell you. Peter, if you cannot work 1 must. We should have been without bread to night had I not found work to-day, xou know that all kinds of light. agreeable business are seized upon by those who have particular mends or relatives engaged in them. At such a time as this it is not for us to consider what kind of work we will do, so long as it honest. Va I give me the liberty ot living on my own desert, and the in dependence to be governed by my own convictions of right But, my wile, only think ! you car rying out butcher a stun I w by, 1 i i j j : . if n wuuiu Buuner xu auu uu is uivbcu. if you would sooner go, said his wife with a smile. A will stay at borne and take care of the children." It was hard for Peter Stanwood. but the more he thought upon the matter the more he saw the right and justice of the path into which his wile thus led him. Before he went to bed he promised that he would go to the butcher s in the morning. And A'eter stanwood went on his new business. Mr. Snow greeted him warmly, praised his faithful wife, and then sent him off with two baskets one to go to Mr. Smith's and the other to a Mr. Dixall's. And the new car rier worked all day, and when it came night he had earned just ninety-seven centc. It had been a day of trials to him, but no one sneered at him, and 11 his acquaintances had greeted him the same as usual. He was far hap pier than when he went home the night before, for now he was independent. Un the next day he earned over a dollar ; and thus he continued to work , , ... , . . i ... , trees:, ana at tne ena oi mat time ne ad $5.75 in his pocket, besides hav ing paid for all the food for his family. save some lew pieces oi meat xir. Snow bad given him. On Saturday evening he met Mark Leeds, another who had been discharged from work with himself. Leeds looken careworn and rusty. How goes it f asked A'eter. "Don't ask me," groaned Mark; my family are half starved." "But can't you find something to do?" "Nothing I" "Have you tried?" "Everywhere: but it's no use. I've pawned all my clothes save these I have on. A ve been down to the bind ery to-day, and what do you suppose the old man onered me l What was it?" Why. he offered to let me do his handcartiog! fie had just turned off bis nigger tor drunkenness, and ne offered me the place. The old cur mudgeon !" Mark mentioned the name oi an in dividual who is supposed to dwell somewhere in a region a little warmer that our tropics. Well, said. Feter, "if I had been in your place I should have taken up with the offer." Mark mentioned the name ol that same individual again. Why, resumed A'eter, A nave been doing the work of a butcher's boy for a whole week. Mark was inoredulous, put his com panion soon convinced mm, ana then they separated, one going home happy and content, and the other going away from home to find some sort of excite ment in which to drown his misery. One day Peter had a basket of pro- . . . IIT T . visions to carry to Mr. v At was his former employer. He took the load upon his arm and started off. Just as he was entering the yard of the customer he met Mr. W coming out 'Ah. Stanwood. is this you?" asked his old employer, kindly. Aes, sir. "What are you doing now?" "I'm a butcher's boy, sir." "A what?" "You . ee I've brought your provis ions lor you, sir ; 1 am a regular butcher's boy." And how long have you been at this work?" "This is the tenth day, sir." "But don't it come hard ?" "Nothing comes hard so long aa it is honest and will furnish my family with Dread." "And how much a day can you make at this?" "Sometimes over a dollar, and some times not over fifty cents." "Well, now look here, Stanwood ; there have have been no less than a dozen of my old hands hanging around my counting room for a fortnight, whining for work. They are stout, able men, and yet they lie still because I have no work for them. Last Sat urday I took pity on Leeds and offered him the job to do my handcartiog I told him I would give him $1.25 a day, but he turned up his nose and asked me not to insult him. And yet he owned that his family were suffering. But vou come to my place to-morrow and you shall have something to do, if it is only to hold your Deoch up. l honor you for your manly independ enee." Peter grasped the old man's hand with a joyous, grateful grip, and blessed him fervently. That night he gave Mr. snow notice that he must auit. and on the follow ing morning he went to the bindery. For two days he had but very little to do, but on the third day a heavy job came in, and Peter Stanwood had steady work. He was hsppy more happy than ever, for he had learned two things first, what a noble wife he had ; and second, how muoh resources for good he held in his own energies. Our simple picture has two points to its moral. One is no man can be lowered by any kind of honest labor. The seoond while you are enjoying the fruits of the present forget not to provide for the future, for no man is an sannra hnt that the dav may come when he will need the squanderings of j the past. j OHIO, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1869. 1 tFrom the Ohio Stat Journal.

The sort of Patriot the Deaaocrats would make Governor of Ohio. Hon. Geo. H. Pendleton, aa the Demo cratic candidate for Governor of Ohio asks the people to investigate his quali fications for that position. Ho is a gen tleman of respectable talent and high culture, and has occupied official posi tions of honor and power. He was a member of the National Congress dur ing the dark days which preceded the breaking out of the rebellion, and for several years while the great struggle was in progress. What his eourso was daring; this period It is the object of the following extracts, from his official rec ord, to snow, if his eloquent voice and official power were used to encourasre secession and not to puttbe mark of in famy upon it; if used to dampen the Na tional patriotism, and not to give it new araort if used to embarrass the Govern ment in Its patriotic efforts and not to sustain it, then Mr Pendletiin" deserves a rebuke from the people of Ohio aa se vere as the one administered to C. L Vallandic-ham in 1862. If Mr. Pendle ton was not a patriot when our country needed the support of patriotic men, if nts love or country is oi soca an uncer tain character that he could not stand firmly by her in the hour of danger, it is not proper tnat ne snouia oa honored after the peril has been dispelled by men, wnn mors roars go ana a more genuine devotion than he possesses. REFUSES TO SUSTAIN THE PRESIDENT IIT CONSTITUTION AX MEASl'KES TO PRE- SERVE THE UNION. During the closing aavs of 1860. Mai Robert Anderson, who was stationed at r ort Moultrie, Charleston Harbor, wi a small force, withdrew from that fort to a place of greater security, Fort Sumpter. This act, which was nothing uiuro tiiau an act oi common prudence, was heartlv approved, and Mr. Adrian of New Jersey, in offering the following iciuiuuuu in nouse 01 rteDrenenrarivna at Washington, on the 7th of January, 1861, but gave expression to the feeling i "o loyai peouie oi tne nation. "Mesolved, That we fully approve of the bold and oatriotic act of Malnr An. derson in withdrawing from Fort Moul trie to r on sumpter. and of tbe deter. mination of the President to maintain mat tearless officer in his present noai- tion ; and that we will support the Pres- luent in au constitutional measures to enforce the laws and preserve the Union." A motion was made to snsnend the ruies so tnat tne resolution could be ac tea upon immediately. The motion was sustained by a vote of 124 veas to 53 nays. S. S. Cox, and C. D. Martin of Uhio.McC'lernand and Logan of Illinois, Sickles of New York, and many other Democrats voted with tbe Republicans for the suspension of the rules, while Pendleton and Valiandigbam of Ohio yoiea in tne negative with the South ern members, many of whom were af terward officers in tbe rebel armv. r Con gressional uiodo, voi. o4, page zo.l When tbe vote was taken on the ad option of the resolution.

By this action Mr. Pendleton said that he would not support "the President (James Buchanan I ALL CONSTITUTI ONAL- MEASURES TO ENFORCE THE LAWS AND PRESERVE THE UNION. THE DOCTRINES OF THE CONSPIRATORS PROC LAMED. On tbe 18th of January, "lgfil. Mr. Pendleton in his place in the House made a speech in reference to a pend- ns bill entitled "au ant farther to provide for tbe collection of duties on Imports," which is full V reported in the Congressional Globe. Appendix, voL 63, page 70. At that time four (states had with drawn from the Union, had spurned the autooniyor tne General Government and had seized the forts, arsenals and custom houses of the United States, thns rendering it impossible to execute the laws or to collect the revenues of the country. The object of tbe bill, which naa been introduced by Mr. Biner- ham of Ohio, was to enable tbe Govern ment to execute its revenue laws. It was drawn in almost the exact lan- ganguage of an act of 1833, under which ihe iron-bearted patriot, Andrew Jack son, so summarily squelched rebellion ana treason in south Carolina. Mr. Pendleton, failing to follow the noble example of Jackson, opposed, most bitterly, tbis bill, which was intended to destroy rebellion ana treason in lsbl. Mr. I'eaieton saia : "But sir, money, armies, blood, will not maintain tbe Union. Justice, rea son, peace, may. This Union, Mr. Chair man, is a confederation or states, i he Constitution is the bond. In order to attain certain ends, beneficial to all, these States came together in voluntary association . i rtey organized a central Government, and invested it with cer tain powers, thev themselves agreeing to do certaiu things, and to refrain from doing certain other things, which were clearly within the scope of their sover eign power. In order to maintain this Union, in order to maintain tbis Con stitution, it is necessary that every agency in tbis complicated machinery the General Government, tae States united, tbe States severally sboul per form tbe functions allotted to them by tbe Constitution." "Now. sir. what force of arms can eompel a state to do that which she has agreed to do? What force of arms can compel a State to refrain from doing that which ber State government, sup ported by the sentiment of her people, is determined to presist in doing T It is provided in the Constitution that tbe citizens of every State shall have all the privilege and immunities of citizens of the several States. What force of tbis Federal Government can eompel the observance of that clause if a Stale is determined to pass and execute laws whereby citizens of other States shall not have, within its limits, the same privileges as its own citizens T" LET THXX DEPART IN PEACE. As Mr. Pendleton save expression in the above extract, as his own belief to the theory of tbe leaders of tbe South ern rebellion, tbe reader will not be surprised that the following language may be found tbe same speech : j!u.y voice to-oay is for conciliation; ray voice is for compromiaeand it is but the echo of my constituents ; 1 beg you gentlemen, who with me, represent the Northwest; you who with me. represent the State of Ohio; you who with me, represent tne city of Cincinnati i bear ynu gentleman, to hear that voice. If vou will not you will nna conciliation impossible; if your differences are so great tnat you cannot or win not recon cile them, then, gentlemen, let the se ceding States depart in peace; let them establish their government and empire, and work out their destiny according to the wisdom which Ood has given them." THIS UNNATURAL AND UNHOLY WAB. Mr. Pendleton closed bis remarkable argument in favor of the conspirators as follows : "Gentlemen, to-day you must make vour choice. To-day lay aside all thoughts, of war and cultivate the arts of peace.' To-day determine upon a course of conciliation and compromise. If you do not, if you insist upon draw ing the sword and dipping it in your brother's blord: if you Insist upon this unnatural and unholy war prepare to wage it to tbelast extremity: for I warn you that every wound which you Inflict upon the Southern people, every defeat to which vou aubiect them, every degra dation you may have power to make them endure will rankle in their breasts until they waab out the last stain in your blood and mine, or it may be in that of our children." On the 10th of July, 1861, after the war had actually begun, a bill, very iiae tue oneaiscassea oy tu, i"enaieton on tbe 18th of January, was put on its passage in tbe House of Representa tives and received a vote of 136 yeas to to 10 nays. Cong. Globe, vol. 56, page 66. The nays were: Pendleton and Val laniligharn of Ohio, Ben). Wood of New York, Voorbees of Indiana, Robinsou oi Illinois, jvorton ana iteia of Mis souri, Burnett, Harding and Wads, worth of Kentucky. 8. 8. Cox.McClernand and other Dem ocrats voted for the bill. (Ti A ETT REITERATES PEACE SENTIMENTS. On the 31st of January, 1863, after two years of war. after every patriotic man bad determined that rebels in arms must cease their war on the national nag and submit to the national author ity, Mr. Pendleton reiterated the senti ments we have before given. Cong. Globe, vol. 61, page 654. "I have been in favor of peace from the beginning of this sectional contro versy." e "I said two years ago on this floor that 'armies, money, war cannot main tain this Union; justice, reason, peace. may. 1 oeuevea it men, l nave Deiiev ed it at every moment since; A believe it now. No event of the past two years has for a moment shaken my faith." THREATENS SECESSION ON THE PART OF THE NORTHWEST. Mr. Pendleton then uttered the fol lowing threat, to deter tbe Government from using every means within ita reach to overthrow the rebellion, to deter the Government from arming negroes: 'The people of the .Northwest were carried away by the excitement of April and May. They believed that war would restore the Union. Thev feel that tbe war haa been pervert ed from tbis end; that tbe Constitution has been disregarded; that abolition and arbitarv power, not union and const! tntional liberty ,are the governing ideas or tbe Administration- I hey are xn no temper to be trifled with. They think they have been deceived. They are suffering rom tne aeam oj relatives ana friends. xnev are longing ior peace, -mere danger of revolution. There is danger that they may see no extrication from pres ent aimculties out in separation. I mam you of it now, I warn yon in time.' NOT ANOTHER MAN NOR LAR. ANOTHER DOL- Again.in the same speech, Mr. Pen dleton said : "I should be false to every duty as its representative here; false to vou my fellow .Representatives, it A aia not tell you that there is an impression growing with great rapidity upon the minds of the people of the Northwest, that they have been deliberately deceived into this war: that their patriotism and their love or country nave oeen engaged to can them into the army under the pretense that war was for the Union and the Constituion, when, in fact, it was to bean armed crusade for the abolition of sla very. I tell you, sir, that unless tbis impression is speedily arrested it will become universal, it will ripen Into conviction, and then it will be beyond your power to get irora ineir Droaa plains ANOTHER MAN or from their almost EXHAUSTED COFFERS AN OTHER DOLLAR." What sweeter comfort could have Mr. Pendleton given tbe armed traitors than to have stooa dp in nis place aa a rtep resentative of the patriotic people of the Great Northwest, as he did, and tell them that bis people would not fur nish another man ana that their coffers were exhausted? What other encour- agement did tbe rebels want to cause them to persist in their wicked courser THE NAVY. It will be remembered that under the dminintration of Mr. Buchanan's Sec retary of the Navy, Isaac Toucey, tbe war ships of tbe Government had been scattered to distant parts of tbe world so that thev could not be used, when tbe rebels nrnue tneir attack on tne nation. Mr. Toucey accepted without delay or inquiry the resignations of officers of tbe Navy, who were in arma against tbe Government when tender ing tbe same, and of those who sought to resign that they might be relieved from the restraint imposed upon them bv their commissions on engaging in hostility to the constituted authority of tue nation. On the 2d of March, 1861, Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, reported a resolution pronouncing "this conduct a grave er ror, highly prejudicial to the discipline of the service and injurious to the hon or and efficiency of the Navy; for which he (the Secretary of the Nm) deserves the censure of tbis House." On the adoption of tbis resolution there were 95 yeas to 62 nays. Among those voting in the negative was Geo. H, Pendleton, isee cong. uiooe, vol. 65, page 1424. VOLUNTEERS. On tbe 13th of July, 1861, Mr. Pendle ton opposed an amendment to a pend ing bill which amendment authorized the President to accept the services of five instead of four hundred thousand men for the pnrpose of repelling inva sion, suppressing insurrection, enforc ing the laws and preserving and pro tecting the public property, and appro priated five instead of four hundred million dollars, to be used, if necessary for the same purpose. Cong. Globe, Vol. 56, page 94. CHEATING) THE GOVERNMENT. On the 17th of January, 1862, Mr. Campbell asked leave to introduce a resolution, instructing tbe House Judi ciary Committee to examine into the expediency of enacting "A law making It a crime, punisnaoie wit a aeam, ior nv omcer or private or tne army or Naw of tbeUnited States, or other mil itary service of the Government, or on tbe part of any commissary, contractor sutler, or other person in the employ or tbe United States to knowningly and willfully cheat and swindle the Govern ment of the United States, or to felonious ly take and carry away the property of tue same auriug tue existing teucmuu. Mr. Pendleton objected to this resolu tion, and thus prevented its introduc tion. CoDg. Globe, yol. 57, page 385. ATTEMPTS TO FURNISH THE ENEMY WITH ARMY STATISTICS. On the 15th of December, 1862, Mr. Pendleton introduced In the House of Representatives a resolution instructing the secretary oi w ar to lay ueiorw mat bodv a mass of statistics showing the strength of armies, and which would have been of great value to the enemy if made public oy compliance) wun tnis resolution. The resolution made it obligatory upon the Secretary of War to comply, and not permit him to with- noia tnis lniormatiou, v utc yoou. v "g country required, as is customary when the Departments are called upon for in formation. This revolution was laid on he table yeas 71, nays 40. Mr. ren- dieton, of course, with Vallandigham, voted 'nay.' I Cong. Globe, vol. 61, page 937-1 REFUSES TO FACILITATE THE TRANSPOR TATION OF TROOPS. All know how important His in times of war to ba ve troops transported quick ly from point to point, xet on tne hi a of January, 1863, when Mr. Dunn, of Indiana, asked unanimous leave for tbe House to introduce a Dill to facilitate tbe transportation of the troopa, stores and mails of the United States between the City of Washington, Point of Rocks and the city of Pittsburgh, Mr. Pendle ton objected and thus prevented its in troduction, m r. noiman, a iwmwrai. from Indiana, performed the same ser vice during tbe same day. See C.ing. Globe, vol. 61, page 254. NEGRO SOLDIERS. On the 3d of February, 1863, tbe bill authorizing the President lo accept as soldiers, volunteers of African descent passed tbe home or .Representatives. At tbis time it had become evident that tbe Government must use every means within Its power in order to preserve the Union, yet Mr. Pendleton voted against the bill; that afterward reinforc ed the Federal armies by tbe force of one hundred thousand lighting men. See Cong. Globe, vol 61, page blJ0. THE THIRTY SEVENTH CONOREMS. . The Thirty Seventh Congress furnish ed the men and armies which destroyed rebellion. It clothed, fed and armed those men: in fact conceived and per fected all the difficult legislation wbich finally preserved our nationality, yet Mr. Pendleton said of that Congress on the 24th of February. 1853. that it had been "froltlnl of expedients to destroy the happiness or tne country." in- Cong. vol. 62, page 1255. From this assertion one might reasonably infer that Mr. Pendleton believed that to thwart secession and prevent the dismemberment of our Union was "to destroy the happi ness oj our country." PEACE RESOLUTIONS. On the 29th of February, 1864, after the leaders ol the rebellion had declar ed that if furnished with blank paper upon which to write the terms upon which they would return to the Union, they would spurn tbe offer, Alex. Long 4m of Ohio, introduced in the House of Representatives a rt isolation requiring: the President of tbe United States to appoint Franklin Pierce, Millard Flit- more ana inos. Jawing as reace com missioners to tbe Southern Confeden cy. The House, by defeating the reso lution, refused to humiliate the Gov ernment. Teas 22, nays 96.

On the 9th of April. 1864. lust Grant's army was leaving tbe entrench ments or Washington, on its blood stained career of glory to Richmond. and as Sherman's army was starting on its irtumpaant marcn to tne Boa, lienl G. Harris, a rebel sympathizer from Maryland, stood up in his place in the House of Representatives and defiant ly said to tbe loyal people of the coun try : "The South asked yon to let. them go in peace. But no : you said you wonin oring mem into surtiecaon. xnat is not aone yet, ana wa Jiimxghtv grant that it never may be. J hop that voh wMnever submgate the South." Such language shocked all lovers ot tbe Union and Mr. Wasbburne, of Il linois, instantly introduced a resolution expelling Mr. Harris from the House of Representatives, lhia resolution was defeated, having failed to receive two thirds of all the votes cast yeas 81 nays 58. Gen. Schenck, of Ohio, then intro duced a resolution censuring Mr. Har ris for the language nsed. This resolu tion win adopted yeas 93, nays 18. Mr. Pendleton voted "no" ou the adoption of each of these resolutions and thus endorsed the treasonable words of Beni G. Harris aa a worthy Representative ot toe unttea states. . is. uox, or Ohio. and sixteen other Democrats voted for the censure of Harris. See Coog. Globe vol. t4. page loiB.j Mr. Pendleton also voted against a resolution censuring Alex. Long for de claring on the 8th of April, 1864, that ho was in favor of recognizing theindepend ence and nationality of the so-called Con federacy then in arms against the Union. See Cong. Globe, vol. 64, page 1634.J IT IS NOT THE DUTY OF THE PEOPLE TO DESTROY THE REBELLION. Ou the 18th of January. 1864. Hon. Green Clay Smith, of Kentucky, intro duced the following resolution : w hers as, a most desperate, wicked. and bloody rebellion exists within the jurisdiction of the United States, and cue safety and security of personal and national liberty depend upon its abso lute and utter extinction ; tnerelore Jtesolved. That it is the political, civil. moral and sacred duty of the people to meet it. fight it. crush it, and forever destroy it, thereby establishing perfect and unalterable liberty. Air. i-endleton ana a portion ot tne Democratic members onnosed the reso lution. Once during the pendency of the resolution Mr. uenaieton votea ror an adjournment, aud once for laying it on tbe table. When forced to a direct vote only sixteen Democrats voted against the adoption of the resolution, ana among tnat number was ueorre Ii. Pendleton. Twenty-four Democrats voted for the resolution. See Cong. Globe, Vol.63, page 261. Thns Mr. Pendleton declared mat it was not the duty of tbe people to destroy the rebll lon. VAUtSDIOHAX, On the 29th of February, 1864. Mr. Pendleton introduced a resolution con demning the arrest and banishment of Lt. vaiianaigbam under an order of Gen. Burnside. Tbe resolution was re jected yeas 47, nays 77. See Cong. Globe, vol 63 psge bia.j habeas corpus. On the 2d of March, 1863, an indemni ty bill passed the House of Representa tives, which authorized tbe President to suspend the privilege of the writ of - beas corpus in any case throughout trie United States, "whenever in his judg ment the public satety may require it." The vote stood yeas 99, nays 44. All those voting in the negative, including Mr. Pendleton, were Democrats. See Cong. Globe, vol. 62, page Aw.j CONFISCATION. On the 3d of Angust. 1861. the first confiscation bill passed tbe House. It provided that if daring the existing re bellion any person should employ his property in aiding, abetting or promot ing said rebellion it should be lawful subject of prize and capture, and mad ittoeautyof tne presiaent to -cause ucn property to oe seisea. confiscated and condemned. It also provided that if any master should require or per mit his slave to take up arms against the Government, or permit him to be mployed in any other manner against the Government of the United States, be should forfeit all claim to said slave. Mr. Pendleton voted "no" on this bill. Cong. Globe, vol. 56, page 431. He also opposed all other confiscation measures which were afterward pro posed, as well as all efforts for the abolition of slavery. He also opposed all attempts to repeal the Fugitive Slave Law. OPPOSITION TO RE-ENFORCING THE ARMY. Mr. Pendleton nniformlvoDDOsed all efforts to strengthen the Union armies by means of enrollment or subscrip tion acts, both in his speeches and by his votes. On the 25th of February, 1863, an enrollment act passed the House by a vote of 115 yeas to 49 nays. Six Democrats voted for the bill, but Mr. Pendleton's name is among the nays. See Cong. Globe, Vol. 62, page 12i3. Mr. Pendleton also voted against all supplemental laws which were afterward enacted. On the 2d of February. 1863. a bill passed the House authorizing the Pres ident "to enroll, arm, equip, and re ceive into the land and naval service of the United States such number of volunteers of African descent as he may deem useful to suppress the pres ent rebellion." The vote stood yeas 83, nays 54. Mr. Pendleton voted in the negative. Cong. Globe, vol. 61, page 690. All subsequent efforts to enlist negroes in the army were op posed by Mr. Pendleton. THE WAR A FAILURE. On the 30th of August. 1864. the Dem ocracy of the United States in Conven tion assembled at Chicago, declared tAe tear a failure and demanded that immedi ate efforts be made for a cessation Of nos tilitias. At this time, just as our armies were securing their final and most glorious victories; Mr. Pendleton step- pea upon tnis piatiorm ana louna nis Waterloo defeat in the ensuing Novem ber. This examination of Mr. Pendleton's official record can give no other con clusion than that in 1860-61 he desired the dismemberment of this Union: that during the war he sympathized with the rebels and aided them by his voice and his votes. Mr. Pendleton has never given any indication that that record Is not perfectly satisfactory to himself, hence we must conclude that he does not now rejoice that our country is undivided and that her pros perity was never before equalled. This being the ease it is not proper that Mr. Pendleton Bhould be called from the retirement of the elegant home wbich he adorns so gracefully, to fill a positon in which only a patriot should be found. GEOLOGICAL INTERESTING DIS COVER1ES. From the Ohio State Journal, Sept. Sd.l Prof. Andrews, of the State Geologi cal Corps, was in the city yesterday.

JOHN A. BINGHAM. Deliver at Alliance, Taodav Kvsit ing, Ang. 4, lsea. EQUAL RIGHTS IMPARTIAL SUFFRAGE. In this land of ours men and citizens were, by the corruptions of the Euro pean system, made slaves. In the con suming fires of tbe late great conflict for Union and Liberty every fetter binding human liaibs was turned t dust, and to-day the ReptitiKc refuses to oear npoa its eon a stngre wave. This vrctorrons Ueonle bavin? atoned for this crime against humanii v bv the acnirceoi luooa-aave, py a solemn decree, declared by tbe amendments of their fundamental law, first, that nerearter there shall be nn Hlavrorrr r,r involuntary servitude in this miM!i ""f Muuisnment ior crime, upon due conviction ; and. second.- that no State shall deprive any person of life, liberty or Dronertv without dim nmnM of law, nor deny to any person tbe equal protection of tbe laws; nor make nor enforce anv law which shall abrirlsvt the Drive leges or immunities of citizens T tae united Stataa. and that all ner. boub corn within tbe jurisdiction of the unuen. states snail be citizens thereof. au this is part of the Constitution of me united states but not by the will or consent Of the Democratic Mrtir. Right minded men must concede that these amendments tn the Cnnat.ttn. tion, solemnly ratified by tbe people of tue uuitea states, ao not take from the states any or the powers origlnallyre aerved to t ham ...4.. tt,. rAnu,i.n.:AH but simply enforce in practice the or iginal ineory oi the Government of the United States. Citizenship entitles the person to eaual protection, nrivlleima auu immunities in every state of the Union. From the beginning, the American people did declare by their fundamental law that the nrivlleo-ea and immunities of a citizen of the united States were the birth-right of every rree person born within the Uni ted States, and nntinr ita inrl.fiW.inn and might be conferred by law 'upon an persons or foreign birth rertdewt in tuts country ior tne time prescribed, upon rennncistion of all foreign alle giance to the United States. lo maintain and rernetnate these es aential principles ef tbe Government the United States. Contrross has pro- poseu, in accoraance with the Constitu tion to the Legislatures of the several States the loth Amendment, which provides that "the riirht of tha citizens 01 tne unitea states to vote shall not be denied by tbe United States, or bv any State, on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude, and the Congress shall have power to en force this article by appropriate legis lation." This amendment has already been ratified by the Legislatures ef-tWenty-one States, representing twenty-five millions of the American people. This Democratic party, so-called, In Ohio, protests against this amendment as It protested against the 13th and 14th Amendments, and declares that it is violative of tbe reserved rights of States for the Congress to propose, and for the Legislatures of three-fourths of the States of this Union, to ratify this amendment. What is necessarily im plied in this declaration of tbe Demo cratic party 7 1. That citizenship ia not a birth-right, and from this it results that the majority may rightfully.in the several States of this Union, deprive the minority of all the privileges and immunities of citizens of the United 1 States. I submit that no greater political atrocity than this 'can possibly be com mitted by hutnan. agency. Let tfee people accept this proposition and they will become the architects of their own ruin. Nothing can be clear er than this, that under the representa tive system of government the rights of the minority are as sacred and in violable as the rights of tbe majority. If the majority mav riarhtfullv disfran chise the minority of citizens on ac count of race, color or former condition of servitude, they may, with equal pro priety, disfranchise citizens lor want of stature or property, or on account of nativity, thereby presenting to the world the miserable spectacle of a srov- ernment wherein a mere mnioritv sub. jects to the absolute despotism of their will a minority or their fellow citizens, almost equal In number to themselves. and, perchance, greatly tbelr superiors in all the attainments and virtues wbich adorn, or elevate, or ennoble hu man nature. Let no one answer what I have said by the Stale crv. "This is a white's man's government !" Let it borne in mind that this is the government of men representing every people and kindred and tongue under the whole heavens, and that in the inceDtion of our national straggle for representa tive government, in 1776, the declara tion of the people was not that all tcAtfe men are created equal, but that all men are created equal, and endowed by their ureator with the rights of hie and liberty. Let it bo remembered that by tbe articles of the confederation adopted in '78, free persons, residents in these States, were declared citizens of the United States, and entitled to all the privileges of citizen in the several states ; and let it not be forgotten that in the Congress of '78 it was proposed . .T . . p ' . - i to restrict tue privileges oi citizens 01 the United States to trhttc pertont; mar tne vote was tsken in that Uon- gress upon inserting the word white to tbe articles of confederation as a condition of citizenship ; that of the eleven States then represented, eight Statee, embracing three-fonrths of the entire population of the thirteen, voted solid against the infamous proposition, and that only two btatea voted tor it. This question was thenceforward closed, ana was never afterward even entertained by the great men who made the constitution, leaving it to tne Uem ocratto party of 1869 to revive the atro cious proposition that color shall de termine the birthright of citizenship. It does not require a very high order of intelligence, or an extraordinary amount of intellect, to enable one to discover that it logically results from the proposition that if a majority may deny citizenship to a minority on ac count of eolor, that it may deny as well tbe right of tbe minority to live on ac count of color. It is known the world over that the American experiment of representa tive government rested upon tbe great fact that all men. irrespective of race. color or origin, not by the edicts of ty rants, or usurpers, or by the Constitu tion of States, bat by the irrepealable decree or the God of men and nations. were equal in the rights of person, and upon the farther proposition that the whole body of the people of like age and residence, and possessed of sound mind, have equal right and equal voice in ordinary constitutions of govern ment, and conferring and prescribing tne powers to be exeroised thereby. Tbis is the Democracy of America the Declaration of America and the Constitution of Amerioa. Is it not written in the Declaration that the truth is self evident that "all men ore created equal ?" Is it not further de clared that to secure the rights of life and liberty to 1', governments are in atituted among men, deriving their just powers I mm the consent oi tne governed r Acting upon tnis great Declaration, the people achieved independence for themselves and their successors for ever. Faithful to this declaration, when the victory had been achieved, and America had organized a national government and assumed her place in the family of nations, in the forefront of the Constitutions wsre the word : "We, the people of the United States " not the white people, but "the people of the United States, in order to estab lish justice and to secure tbe blessings of liberty, do ordain this Constitu tion." Did the people not Uo oarry into the text of that instrument the words "that Representatives in Con gress shall be cboson every two years by the people" not the wtute people, but "the people of the several States of the Union ?" Is it pot a fact rt tt t the time of tie adoption of this in strument a ma. ority of the titates Whion ratified tbis Constitution and organized the government nnder it, ia 17tt9, recognized the equal right to vote of all the free male citizens of b ?f fall ge, irrespective of color? And in recognition of the principLi of the equal right of the free Tropics r f the republic to oontTol its aJairs.'iH they ot declare in the Const.tntioa that Representatives should be appor tioned among the several States ac cording to the whole number of free persons in each? The exception of the Constitution in the representative enumeration of two-fifths of aSl otber persons than free persona in -the sev eral States, was a Rileiun declaration that the States whlc adhered to the slave system, imDOsed upon them by the tyranny of Great Britain, should not hold or exercise the time noiitieal power m tae national government for slave population as for free. I do not stop to argue what I have argued again and again, that the inhuman system of chattel slavery was no part of the Amerioan representative system, and found no sanction in the American Constitution. I need nnlv skit !- t has been often eaid by the first n.h'dt of the country, ttat this slave arftim existed not by force of national, let exclusively by force of State author ity : that it survived tbe confederation and continued in tfi'a EiAfna sitr r.!v Aa. Cause it Was not "TiAin the operation of the VotfSftilution of the Untied States, atid each cf the original States reserved to itself the power of deter mining this system of crueltv and in justice, subject, however, to the fcrV-er power ot an tue people of au te States to abolish it for tLe cnirmnti defense in time of insurrection or in vasion. That time did come, it cams by the act of the slave State, ami hav ing thus oome, the people, in accord ance with the Cot stitution, bv o!f-"-n announcement, deslared that fcereifu? there should ba bo elaverv In ant? State in the tlnioa, except as punish ment for crime nDOn due 'ennvit-ticn. Those who were slaves before the preat event were, in the words of the Con stitution, not "free persons." and in the WorfiB of Chsiicellor Kent, "were citizens of the United States under disabilities," and, therefore, not witA in the protection of the Constitution of the country. I(ow that slavery has been abolished, the former citizen. slaves of the several States have be come citizen -freemen of the United States, and all the privileges and im munities of citiztns are asfiiir;? to them, in common with all the citizens of the United Statos, by the 11th Arti cle of Amendment, which has received the sanction of the Legislatures ol more than thrfie-fnnrt Via nf tlio f'-r,-. as also of an overwhelmingniajority of the whole people of tbis country, and t a 1 1 . u A ...ii : . j . j mi, in ii.ii auu pur poses" part of the Constitution of the United States, and as obligatory and binding as such upon all the Stales and 11 the people of the Union aa any ther part of that sacred instrument-. This 14th amendment declares, among other things, "that all persons born within the United States or its juris- lction. not all wl.ite persons, bnt all persons born withii the United States or its jurisdiction are citizens of the United States, ani of the fctsfa in which they reside, and that "no Stats shall make or enforce a'nylaw which shall abridge the tiivileges or immuni ties ot cjtfsens ot the United Mates, creprive any person or lile, liberty property without due process of law. or deny to anv person within ita jurisdiction the eqcaf protection of the laws. Thus stands the Constitution to-da.7. and lest the origintl and declared pur pose of the Constitution shall be car ried into effect, lest justice shall be established in the land that justice which secures to every man his due lest liberty to all shall be secured un der the shelter and sanction of Amer ican law, this party now seeking tLo suffrages of the people of Ohio, last year, by its national platform, declared that the 14th amen iment was uncon stitutional, revolat: onary aDd void, and this year, in its I State platform, de clares that the 15th amendment, al ready ratified by the Leisl stares of twenty-one States of this Union, ia subversive of the principles of the Federal Constitution. Allow me to say, my countrymen, that the day of our national desola tion is at hand when the Americas people shall, in the blindness of party passion and party fury, sanction by their ballot this Democratic party do ma that it is revolutionary, unconsti tutional and void to amend the Consti tution of this cou itry in the mode prescribed for its amendment, and for the purpose of making good the end for which it was ori?inaliy ordained "to establish justice and to secure the blessings of liberty." THE NEW SESATIO?T. Mrs. Stowe, the author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," has published an article in the September camber of the At lantic which is exciting great interest in the literary and social world. It is nothing less than a charee of incest against Lord Byron. The history of the case is briefly this. Scrte years ago, when Mrs. Stowe was in LngUnd, she was sent for by Lady Byron, and from whom the received a fall revela tion of the domestic life of that lady with Lord Byron daring the year they lived together, and of the causes which led to their permanont separation, the was desirous before psisinr away from earth of placing tb ) facts within the knowledge of some one, ti be r:-e i after her decease to vindicate Lflr memory and reputation, and toe thought that Mrs. Stowe, hoing an American, and threfore free from the prejudices and influences which surrounded her countrywomen, would be a proper person to whom to com municate these facts, bhe therefore gave her a long aud full statement cf the causes of the se arition. 1tt dc Xr and startling fact is that Lady I-yroa accuses Lord ByroT with incetwitb his half-sister. Ladr Augusta L'vron. afterward the wile of Col. Leifrh, that that the result wi a the birth of a daughter, who was cared for by Lady rsyron tin it died, living only a few years. Ahis family secret, known only to a few, had betn kept from the knowledge of the world, but it was really tbe great cauie why Byron de serted his wife and never afterward saw her. His knowledge of the fact that his wife knew of this aflair kept him from making any serious charges against her during his life. It was a matter of grave deliberation whether mt the lima of this iiterriew witb Mr. Stowe it was advisable ever to divu'e it to the woild. Mrs. Stowe was op posed to any action, thinking it could do no good. Bhe kept the matter to herself. Some four years atftj Lacy Byron died. Last year a volume by the Countess of O nccicoli, the cele brated mistress of Byron, relative to her life with Byron, and his character, seemed to Mrs. Stowe to erente tLe ne cessity, in vindication ef the memory of Lady Byron, to publish the tci deposited with her t j the world. This she has done in the article in the -If-lantic.Mt. l emon Jiepublican. A LIB HAILED The Democratic papera are opeuins the campaign with a regular system of downright lviog, which is a sure evi dence of their weakness and cerisia defeat. The latest falsi -boo .1 c i' this kind we have notice 5 m i e Ut number of the Tiqua i , j i ', wl.ivh is to the effect that in a i yH io that city, two years sgn, Li.-ut. CJov. told his au . once tl at "the oci;r"fs id day are better qualified to vototLsn the Irish or Dutch." Thia is a he made out of wholn cloth. Gov.
