AYisx. Address ef l he Radicm.1 Coasrresateaial Bxe i cutive Coanmitte . We publ . ih elsewhere to-day the Address of the Radical Congressional Executive Committee to the people of the States that are io rote in November. It is - an intemperate document, substituti g broad assertion for argument, vio- leut hi its abuse, appealing to pnssion in place of reason and seeking t revive and inteussfy sectional s r.fe. It abouuds in all the hackney ed blackgoai dt.m that tuts been heaped upon tee 'Preside' -f the United States by Radical politicians tor tlie past year aud a half, alfuding to h.m as'tne "perfidious Executive, the. apos tate in tb Presidential chair," and "the acciden tal President;" aud pretends that the committee are in receipt 1 1 intelligence of "uew oulrages upon the Union of the South, while and black," sir.ee the u-ri-n Nonhern react! n against rad icalism wi.u a iiiielligence. singularly enough, is eoiinoed to the c rurnittee and unknown to ev ery tod else. Under tlw specious cry of pro tection l' -r tLe - Uui -uints" of the Sonthjit justi fies the disf ranchisement of the white race and the elevation ot the Southern negroes,' who. were rebels during the war, to political supremacy. In short, it is an unfortunate document for the party in ahose interest it is written, acfl -shows that it has no better weapons than violence aud slang With which to fight us bnttle. The addicts ought to be primed by. the con servutivcs and scattered all over the oountrv It is the tet electioneering document, they can desire. Under Scbenck's pO cerful eloquence on the wroiig side we shmld not.be turpi lsed if the radio. il ticket was defeated by thirty thousand in the Staie of New York. Hi threats ot repu diation and insurrection are all balderdash, and will fngbteu no sensible man. The, ''violent revolutionary and deperate men who be rays are ready to "adventure another rebellion" to fight their way into the Union' wilLbe quiet and peaceable enough, and the JNorth will see to it that they are restored to their proper position in the government without the curse of negro supremacy. The only "violent, revolutionary and desperate men" who are to be feared and. guarded ag nust are those who would biing about a war of races, and who are now, by their policy, inciting the semi-navage negroes ol the Sooth to take np arms against the whites and drive them out of the Snothern State. This is the real danger that threatens the peace of tLe country aud to the Uiuiouul credit, aud against tins the people of New York will record their verdict ueii mouth, as the people of California, Ohio aud Pennsylvania have already dvne. The free circulation ol Schenck a aad res a is all that is needed to sec ire a radical defeat in this State by at least tniity thousand majority. J. Jr. Herald. From the Richmond Dispatch. rie Jl'ijro Vigilance Cmiatlt. Some Incredulous citizens have expressed doubts as to the truth of the statements pub lished in regard to the audacio as warnings of the negro vigilance commutes. We repeat that no tices to leave have been served several citizens, and a comparison of them shows that they em anated from one source, and are all in thehand- writing of "T. B. G., Secretary." The persons who have incurred the displeas ure of the committee reside iu portions of the cny widely apart, and are men engaged in en tirely different business pursuits. It baa also een remarked aa singular that all who have thus far received threatening letter are of Nor thern birth but conservative in sentiment. We wtre noticed yesterday of two or more per sons who have been ordered fo leave, and one oi them received a notice much more imperative thau that published on Saturday. . - The LOtice appended wass etved on air.
