The issues presented to the country are

dorsement mast come sneb a change in the
administration of the National Oovernmeut
as will restore the Constitution and give
peace, harmony and prosperity to the
country, and especially to the down-trod-dent
States of the South.
3d That it Is oar earnest desire and
intention to bring about these wholesome
and necessary changes by the peaceful
means of the ballot box; and all efforts to
produce a contrary belief, coming from

of interested partisans of a desperate po

power by any means and at all hazard.

tt this State by the tarw? cry-of revoltr-
tion and war, threatening llicui it toe

hesitated to tak from the people the elec
tion of Elector of Prenidcnt iunl Vice

( the designs of unpatriotic men every

1 5th. That we have seen with indigna

excellent system of State government and
lowland the acfoption ' of 'Otbets li tbeir
stead heretofore unknown to our people,
unsuited to their condition and utterly ad

8th That the Governor of this State,
having proclaimed it as the policy of the
Radical party to suffer no one to hold any
office, appointment or place in the State,
however humble, who will not lend his
aid and promise his support to that party,
and which policy he and his political
friend- are now vigorously enforcing to
effect tho exercises of the elective fran
chise, it is the sense of this Convention
that the people have the right to conn
teract snch policy by all lawful means, if
they think proper so to do. That any
citizen of the State, therefore, has a man
ifest right, of which he cannot bo lawful
ly deprived, to employ, or not to employ,
or cease to employ, uuy person whatever
when any cxistm;; contract terminates
aud that any attepmt on the part of the
Legislature, bv anv on-tended iaw to de
prive any citizen of such right, or to im
pose any penalty or penalties for so do
ing, will be in violation of the Constitu
tional rights of the citizen.
Otli. I hat to obtain success in the ap
proaching Presidential election, every ef
fort should be m, de by our friends to per

means should be. spared to bring every
voter, favorable to our cause, to tho polls.
To that end wo most earnestly recom
mend to our friends to organize at once
sk-ytnuux and liluir Clubs iu every county -
ud every District, with active canvass
ers, whose duty among other things it
shall be to set: that all our friends entitled
to Ivote are duly registered and brought to

THE FELLOW THAT LOOKS LIKE ME
Cruel treatment is the fa ts,
And troubles are to be ;
Thre is another follow in this here town
And he just looks like me.
Oh would't I like to catch him,
Who ever he may be.
Oh wouldn't I give him particular fits
That follow that looks like me.
As I was going down Main Street,
A walking very slow,
When a man stepied up to me and aid,
Just pay-that bill you owe,
Although i said I kuew him not,
ttwHr MM not let me be.
I A crowd gathered round acd I paid the bill
For tliu felbw that looks like inc.
Then I went out a sparking,
Just as gay as lifts
Wheu ainau stepped up to me and sars,
Whr Itmu'ii luiw is Vnnr wifn.
t Taj I 8aid I was a single man,
But married I wish to be ;
He kicked me out and called me a swindler
For the fellow that looks like uie.
As I was walking down Beal street,
A going very fast.
When a policeman stepped up to me,
"I've caught you now at last."
You know you beat mo once before-
But now you cau't get free
So off to the calaboose I was taken,
For the fellow thai looks like me.
So off to the calaboose J was dragged,
And about to be taken down,
When another policeman he stepped in,
With the prisoner Mr. Brown
And they turned me loose again,
And said my friend you r j freer"
But the uggliest man that ever I saw
Was the fellow that looks like me.

m RADICAL STUPIDITY.
Tno lata ejection of tho negroes
from the reconstructed (Georgia Leff
Ulatans (says the New l'ork World)
has now its explanation. When the
bngut constitution was under ditcui.
i m, it was propoeed to insert therein
tho fullowing as a part of the article
on franchise: "Section 10. AHqnalU
fled electorslandnoneotluis, shall bo
f eligible to any office in this State tin
lees disqualified by tno constitution of
this Stale or by the Constitution of
the United States." This was not
greed to nays 126, yeas 19, every
negro in the bogus convention out
two, voting aye. When the enlight
ened frecdman had thus- voted away
his eligibility to office affinna'ively,
he proceeded to do tho samo in a nog
ative manner, ovory single negro in
the wholo body vo'ing tor tho Alth
article of tho bogus constitution,
which article declares "the code of
Georgia" and all laws passed "sinco
the l&ih day of January, 1861," of
lull force, save as to slaves, llns code
and these laws, of coarse, douy tho
right to hold offlco to free persons of
color. Singularly enough, when the
poor, stupid negroes had thns voted
in favor ot their ineligibility, Con
irress was stuuid enough in turn to
confirm the surrender, declaring tho
instrument containing it entirely lvo
publican in form and altogether so
satisfactorily that tho State was im
mediately admitted to representation
thereunder. It is hard fo say wheth

the thicker skull.
OUTRAGE UPON A COLORED
DEMOCRAT.
The President of the Democratic
Club in this city yesterday received
a let'er from a gentleman at Council's
Bluff, iJladen county, alluding to an
outrage perpetrated by Union League
negioss upon Henry freeman, a col
ored Deinoorat at that place on
Thursday night last. Freeman hirm
self came to the city yesterday and
bore testimony to the fact and exhib
ited the marks of violence upon his
person. It appears that he came
down from Fayetteville, where he
had been speaking, on Thursday last,
to Council's Bluff for the purpose of
speaking tbore tho next day and ful
filling some other appointments in
the county. That night he was lodg
ed in the dining room of tho house of
a gentleman, with a trusted servant.
About 11 o clock he was aroused by
a gang of negroes who seized upon
his throat to prevent any cries, and
proceeded to drag him out through
t ie woods for about a mile and a half,
all the time nearly choking Jiim to
death. They then halted, and after
cursing him repeatedly, they told
him ot their knowledge of his intent
tloft to speak and swore he should
not do it. They then stripped him of
his coat and shirt, tied him up by
lis hands, and proceeded to belabor
him moat unmercifully with whips,
sticks and poles, all the while stand
lfw7tj7gu S a ila Tieao and threats
enmg to shoot him should he make
the least noise, lie was at last per
mitted to return, with a final threat
hat they would shoot him if he at
tempted to speak. The Crowd num
bered about twenty, all welt armed,
he back of their victim is in a most
lorribly bruised and bloody condi
twmr
.It is a satisfaction to know that
some of these scoundrels are known
and efforts are being made to trace
out the others. They will be arrested
and confronted with tlie law. It is the
determination of our friends to have
the scoundrels punished to the ut
most extent the law will ttArmir. Tint

SINGULAR INCIDENT.
In a recent speech at Buffalo, N.
IT.,. Hon. John I. Hoffman declared
that "the day ef the sword is passed,"
and related the following: x
"An incident occurred at the meet
ing of the National Convention which
was an omen. That grand hall where
the Convention met was full of pat
riotic men. Upon its walls were
placed the shields of thirty-seven
States, and around every shield was
an American flag. Upon the plaK
form stood two bronze statutes of, no
ble soldiers, one leaning upon a great
bronze sword. The Convention had
been iu session for several days ; bal-

lot after ballot had boon taken. First
one was up and then another, aud
at last a gallant General, whose name
has nevei boon mentioned anywhere
save witli respect I mean General
Hancock, o uau know whmtimr est
the next ballot ho was or wae not to
be cboseu. Everything was oncer
tain, when suddenly the great bronaed
sword injhe hand of that noble stat
tiilo snapped asunder at the hilt. It
was not tonched by mortal hands
no human agency broke it. Somo
mysterious, invisible, and irresistible
power snapped it at the hilt, and the
word went forth that the country was
henceforth to have a statesman and
not a soldior for a leader." Tremen
dous cheering.)
Aajournmeni of th Texas Consti
tutional Convention.
Austiu, Aug. 31, 1868. The Texas
constitutional convention adjourned
tli s inoruiog until the first Monday
in December. Its organ, the Austin
Republican says : "We are satisfied
(hat every thoughtful and reflecting
man in the State, whether loyal or
conservative, will approve this action
of the convention." For three long
months this body has wrangled over
tho spoils, disgraced the capitol with
numerous fights, and of all its many
acts this one aloue meets the appros
bation of reflecting men. Nothing
in their life became them like the
leaving it. They published to the
world a report
on "Lawlessness and
Violence," an infamous tisane of
falsehoods, for partisan ends, slander
ing the pooplo of the State and pro
venting immigration.
They have sent a committee of two
to Washington to secure the passage
of a bill arnrng the blacks against
the whites, failing in whioh one ef
them retired to New England, where
he now is. They have squandered
$100,000 of the people's money, and
having failed to get the approval of
the commanding general to a further
appropriation of $25,000, they have
followed the example of Congress and
taken a recess, without having forim
ed a constitution or accomplished one
single purpose for which they assem
bled, liiey do not intend that lex
as shall be reconstructed unless the
negro, armed, shall own the polls.
Texas, when once more restored to
the Union of our fathers, will have a
glorious future before her.
1 he prospects for abundant crops
throughout the States aro very on
cou raging, though owing to the rav
ages ot the army worm out nait a
rop of cotton will be made.
