It is said that Plants' vote- in old Monroe will ho about n linker's dozen. Old Democratic Monroe, sent more than 1 ."00 of her boy3 into the war to put down the rebellion. Scarcely any these soldiers will support Plants. They do not like his votes in Congress. Ho thinks loo much of the darkey "tind fugloctsor postpotu s tho interccts of white man.' rifitiU thinks tho negro troops were the best soldiers in the service. The Monroe boys know better than that, and now talk strongly j7, nit k in ij old Toby. Things are Working.

The Pudical-liepublican party has a two-thirds majority in both brunches of tho present Congress. For proof of this fcUiiement we refer to tlio votes on President Johnson's veto messages. This very hottest Congress under took, among many other things, to equalizo bounties among noldiers. At tho tail end of an eight months session they voted : 1st. To pay themselves ?",000 per session an increase of t1, 000 per scs sion over and above, the pay they were . . j ,, , to receive when elected. Each mem- bcr, therefore, receives 8 1,000 extra paj' for about eleven mouths absence from homo. 2d. To the negro they voted a bounty of ?300 declaring at tho timo that they were tho best troops in the service. 3d. To the white boys, who berved the country faithfully for the term of three yours or during the war, cat jnr ' bard tack and sow belly," they, in their generosity, donated tho sum of a? 100 only. Look at this fstalementof the casts :- Congressman, $5,000. Negro, $300. White Boy. $100. Vc would likfl to know what Honor able Tobias A- Plants,' tho Radical enn didato for Congress in this District, wdio is now asking tho votes of the Roldieti boys to send him back ngniii to Congress, will sny to this exhibit; of the disinterested patriotism of the Kadical Congress. 1 , I' Plants voted for such a law he dionM bo discarded by every honc sV and fair minded voUt in the District. And if Plants seized and carried nwny mid deposited in hi" cnpticioiw pocket the Si. 000 extra pay, allowed him by this law, no man who pays taxes1, di rectly or indirectly, should countenance fcueh plundering of tho public treasury. Every voter should mi -e his vt.iceloud and long utrainst Tl;:i:; A. Plants k Co. Toby Plants' fi ieiids are silent and mum on this plundering trtmsietioti of their Padical Congress. How will or can they justify, before tho honest, impartial voters of this District, the fact that Plants pocketed the extra pay. being ?l,tMt) more money than he agreed he would take at the lime of his election ? How can or dare they look the white soldier in the face and justiiy the vote giving to thenegro soldier f-IJOlt bounty, and putting the white boy oil' with the pitiful nun of only 8100? This is what they call "equalizing bounties." Just look at it : $100, White Boy. $300, Black Boy. $5,000, Plants. Plant, we take it. will tu'vcr'consent to rcveiKO Ihe order ofthie sums, and. $5,000 to White Boy. $300 to Plants. $100 to Negro. No indeed. Plauts will never agree to that. He thiuks too much of him self and of tho negro to submit to Mich an arrangement of tho pay tigurcs. Good I us. AVe clip tho following morsels from the 31arion Democrat : Andy Johnson was tlio Moses of the negro f .ra while. Ho is now life wiiit'j man's Moss, as tho white man needs him most. Tho Pcpiiblicaii papcrsare filled with slang agaiu.st Andrew Johnson because ho is u tailor. A tailor President is us good its a rail-splitter, and wc think n go:xl deal better. Andy is a good tailor. Ha "hems" the Ihnlicals iu, imd ' sows them ti)'' then 'fells" them and "jiresses them down." Hurrah for "Ve Tailor man !" The Pcpublie.uis have a good deal to say iiow-a-tlays about Mr. Sewnrd'H bell. It will ring for some of the Pc publicanu if the- don't abandon their treason and disunion. That's what they are a ''raid of. Priiig the Slates into the Union, and put the Jacobins out of Congress : 'I),iwn willi the tniitnrn, nml Up with tho Sturj." Johnson is redeeming; his promise to make treason odious. JTe has ren dered Stevens, Wade and Sumner as odious as men can bit. Andy does what he says. If there is anybody in Perks'eounty who thinks Andrew Jackson is still President ho won't miss it much. The two Andrews are so mveh alike that we can't see the dirh i jii .e. Tho Pepublicans might i.t.t to be so unrelenting to the South, i s tYy will stand in need of pardon themselves us soon as tho Democracy get into power, and that will be before long. ;.j" The old Federalists, when they go courting the votes of those fyrwhoiit the j- hae little respect, do so very awkwardly. Gov. Oglosby essayed his hand ou the Irish, in his speech to the Fenians at Chicago. Jlu said to them: -I am glad lo see that at last a g!.i-s of whisky will not buy your voles." As much Us to tell them such had not been the case heretofore. Thud. Stevens, iu a speech tit Lan caster, Ponn., said: "We ureinlluenced too much by thoso porsuns from for eign lauds, who, while iu search of freedom, deny that blesncd boon to them who are their equals." That is. iho negroes are tho equals of tho Ger mans and Irish that make this country their home. They may mako votes in that wav, though wo think otherwise. Ciy-llow truthfully says "a leading Republican paper the Springfield. i -ia"H;'1 J;TU "'."" "'ltf "WIJ "j.V no , sure that tliat time cannot conic duriii" j Ull. lif of nny ow nlwvo KVOm,t jr persist in treating all Southern men us l...iir.. ,i ..... rebels, and all who have been rebels, as if neither repenteiicc, expiation nor reconciliation were possible." The Radicals, with Thud. Stevens, Forney & Co., would consign all to tho "peni tentiary of hell," and devote the en tire South to tho black population, as the only "loyal" people fit to inhabit it. It is easy to see when wo shall have a restored Union under the rule of the Radicals. A Historical Remineiscence-The Words of a Pariot. The cll'ort which was mndo nt Phila delphia to restore tie. old relations of amity that used lo exist between fho StntcR, reminds us of ono of tho most bnlliunt episodes in the career of Ptiii iel Webster, in bisSrietnorable reply to Mr. Hnyne, in To.'lO, the great orator of New England was especially happy in his allusion to ISontli durelinu, the homo of his antagonist, and then, as now, estranged froV.i, her Northern sisters. Mr. Webster unlike the Radi cals, did not pour oil upon the flames of strife. Ho did not sci k, as they do, to widen the chasm of discord. On the contrary, with a burst of cloquciico that overwhelmed his opponent, and in the most feeling Mid touching man ner, he invoked the spirit of cordiality and harmony that once prevailed be tween Massachusetts and South Caro lina. II i3 words, w hich for rhetorical beauty are not excelled in Ihe English language, inculcated the spirit thai prevailed at Philadelphia. The friends of the restoration of the Union 'who put South Carolina and Massachusetts together al Philadelphia, will thank us for reproducing Mr. Webster's words. He Kiid to Mr. Jt-.iyne : ' The cuio'iam pronounced on the chnracter of iho State ol' Sout h Carolina by the honorable gentleman lor her re volutionary and it her merit meets my hearty eonciirn nee J shall not ac knowledge that the honorable member goes before me in regard for whatever of distinguished taknt or distinguirdied character South Carolina has produced, 1 claim part of the honor, J partake in the pride of her great names. I claim them for countrymen, one and nil. The Laureiiscs, the Wut ledges, thePinckneys the Sumters, the Marions Americans all w hose fame is no more to be hem med in by Stale lines, than their talents and patriotism were capable of being circumscribed within the same narrow limits. In their duv and ironcration they served and honored the country, ami the whole country, and their re nown is of tho treasures of tho whole country. Him whose honored name the gentleman himself bears, does he suppose me less capable of gratitude for Ids patroitism, or sympathy forhij suH'ering, than if his eyes had first opened upon the light in Massachusetts instead of South Carolina? Sir, docs he suppose it is in his power to exhibit a Carolina name so bright as to produce envy in my bosom? No, sir; increase gnuification and delight, rather. "Sir, let mo recur to pleasing recol lections; let mo indulge in refreshing remembrance of tho past; kt me re mind vou that, in earfy times, no States ' cherislied greater harmony, both of piineij'le and feciing, than Massachu setts end South Carolina. Would to God that harmony might again return! Shoulder to shoulder they went through the Revolution, hand in hand they stood round tho Administration cf Washington, and felt his own great arm lean on them for support. Un kind feeling, if it exist alienation and distrust are the growth, unnatural to such soils, of a seed "principle since sown. They are weeds, the seeds of which that great arm noverscaltered."

When such an instance can be discovered will be time enough to be disheartened. No, the skiesatobright, very bright indeed ; the wind sits iu the shoulder lf their sail; never a crew of fuch jolly clogn ; the sun shines propitious n our voyage we begin, and we're hound for tholugdom.

Tho venerable Archdeacon Pnley brought his system of theology to tho melancholy conclusion that selfishness is the priiii'im matiiic in human ti Hairs. Our Republican brethren when they were building up that gigantic power of appointment, which thej- sav is now being used "to bribe unfaithful ness to convictions arid treachery to the cause mado sacred by patriotic sacri fices," gave no heed to tho frequent warnings they received, that they were starling a game tit which moro than n party could plavt No party that ever oxistea carried corruption and bribery to a higher degree, or employed them moro openly than the Republi can parly; and now if it should find itself I'caten at its-own game, ot whom but itself has it a right to complain? It would lie poetic justice, to say tho least ; and that, as somo think, is equiv alent to providential justice. Cincin nati Lnqrjirer. [From the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Aug. 2.] Attempted Murder-Alleged Conspiracy of a Wife with Negroes to Take the Life of Her Husband. This morning hcaringofa frightful at lempt to murder oneof our citizens, wo wrnttothesccnoof tho occurence, and grt possession of the following facts from tho gentleman himself on whom tho murder wes attempted. Mr. Hull, the person in question, who keeps n barber saloon in Chestnut street, near Straw berry, gave us the following particulars concerning tho attempt oa his life. Mr. Hull is a white man, aged about forty 3'ours. His statement is as fol lows: "A plan was laid to murder mo for my money by at man named Win. Par ker (white man) and Jene Hull, my wife. Last night when I eume home, at a little after twelvo o'clock, I found the light nearly out in the cellar kitch en, where a light was usually kept. I tli'l nol go down stairs, but went up into my bed-room, nnd asked my wife w hat was Iho matter with tho lamp. and she said it was out of order. 1 I told her would go down to the water closet. Sho followed me down, and sho then went down stairs. When 1 rt tuned I found the light still dim mer, and sho had gone up ttairs. 1 had turned to go up stairs, when sho cullctl to me to go (town in the cellarto get tho light, and I turned to go down. The stairway into the cellar kitchen was very narrow and dark. At tho f iot of the stairs there is a doorway loading into a small vault. In this plaeo thero were two colored men con cealed, armed with hatchets. Mr. Hull contiiiiUH: ' I had just dosed the vault door when I heard u slight noise inside: 1 turned, when they jumped out, and ono of them struck' me on tho head wilh a hatchet, knocking mo down iu the opposed cor ner of tho room: then, when I was down, ho jumped and throttled Ine; ho held mo so tight that I could not halloo out; but, Anally, I recovered my strength and threw him off, and cried 'murder'' nnd got up and hoisted a window opening into tne street, w hen they both ran up stairs; ono of them ran into tho water-closet and tho other into tho second-story front room, and concealed himself in a closet; tho ono that struck me was in the water-closet; it is stated thut they were to get $800 to murder me, and they would get the key of my safe; they wero em ployed by William Parkor; thero was also a clothes' lino on tho table near tho bed, supposed tobo folio ine if they did not succeed in tho cellar. Ono col ored man stated that after tho murder ho was to got tho key of tho firo-proof lrom my pocket. lie also stated that my wife placed tho hatchet in his ha nd and concealed him. Yesterday morning at tho breakfast table, my wife stated that I would bo n deud man within four weeks or Iwo months. Tho plan was laid two or threo days ago." The abovo is taken down from Mr. Hull's lips, and on the sopt of tho oo currenee.
