TnE SENTINEL. f dilora, SEATOX CALES. S HaUr, STeiober 13, ! If a A rsoriTLBM, u it would b m intet- aainable Uk, to expose tbe ever recurring nut- rages of the Standard. We eonfeae pur otter inability to da jutice to the subject. At home iU influence ..far' evil it powcrles. At the North, it hu done, and I doing, us greet barm. That, however, U iU too evident purpose. Knowing, therefore, iu statu iq North Caro lina, ws (hall not cuinlier our columns with daily refutations of it Illicit. .-; Were we to at tempt to notice tbenv'll,"we should nota have space or time for aught else. We prefer labors sore profitable and congenial. But for the in formation of those who do not read tbe organ of Radicalism in this State, we make the follow ing grouping of some or iu later utterances, that they way see the length to which it it going : It publ lubes, in its swine of the 6th., a com munication, orer the signature of "Restoration) without dissent from tbe views of the writer, in which negro suffrage is indirectly, if not potf- ' tively, advocated j : , It endeavors to -frighten the people into the rapport of the Howard amendment, by threat--ening the abrogation of all pardons and a con sequent insecurity of alt titles to real-estate ; It repeat the slander that. Union men and - negroes are tbe objects of persecution and hos tility In the State; It declare the civil authorities Inadequate to the protection of life and property ; and, there fore, it want martial law and jiiote troops in the 8Ute; It pronounce toep'reconstructed State gov ernment" a failure ; and, therefore, it desires that - it ahoulS be remanded, to a provisional or terri torial condition ; ?l : It deplore tbe immunity from punishment enjoyed by what, it. callgjcqiwcious traitors."; Knowing what ft means by that designation, it is plain that It womd like to see a pretty gener al system of hanging and confiscation employed. This it tome of the poison. Tbe antidote will .be found in the detestation of all good and true Southern Union men. 0Drr. Tbat negro regiment it to be brought to this City, in the course of a few davt, -for the purpose .of being mustered .out. We sincerely hope that the rumor it without foun- dauon.cn(in6. If a negro regiment should be mustered out bare, It is tair to presume that toe Ueneral in command will see to it mat tney conduct tbem- aal vet nrooerlv. should thev show a disnoaltion not to do so. Wherefore this attempt to excite prejudice against colored men! These colored troops, if mustered out here, wilt probably ' tract in our stores ana snops, ana leave a con siderable amount of greenbacks among ut.- Tbct "bead centre" of all mischief la North Carolina, only second to Beelzebub himself, the . Standard, thus perverts a short and very plain paragraph of the Sentinel. We presume tbe dullest reader of our col umns perfectly understood us. Our remark was prompted by a regard tor tbe welfare of both races. There are already here more colored men than can find profitable employment. This Is palpable to every one. - Our own colored popu lation, tbat belong here, are more entitled to our sympathy than strangers, and unless there was employment for all, ws prefer tbat our own people should be sustained. Moreover, tbe colored regiments were not mustered into the service here, . If brought here to be disbanded, they, soldier-like, would spend their money, and la a few week would be unable to get home. . Indeed, we learn that a white Federal soldier has remarked here, that the object of bringing the negro nrglment Booth to disband is that they are not wanted at the North, And that, nee here, they cannot get ' back. ; Further, our police find but little difficulty in managing our present population, white or black, but a large addition of any class of men, who cannot find employment, would greatly increase their diffi culties. ' Tan Standard baa such a bad opinion of usy for which we cannot sufficiently express -our grief,) that it could not be induced, under any circumstances, it intimates, to "vote" for us for anything. - Holdon says that he. would "vote" for Gen. Cox before be would vote for us. Con sidering the estimate in which he holds ut, (for which again we must pause to weep awhile,) our gallant friend, the General, will hardly take the declaration a a compliment . j If w never got Uoldea''4rot0" until we ask for it, the "crack o' doom" will find us without .. tbat mot damaging support. The tupport ol the Btoiidar&bu killed it hecatombs. Here in " North Carolina tu tuppori i justly regarded am evil as devoutly to be dreaded a the cholera " or the small pox. Its tupport It like the pois onous exhalation of the Upa, death to all that pas under it. All that is neccsary to se cure the defeat of any man it to get the ' Stan imri to endorse tim, and lo ! the thing is done. What a precious showing this is, to t a "When the worst comet, at it certainly will, -' remember our warning. Do not hold -ut r sponsible for wbat it in reserve for Jju." i8tar or, If the wont aWUcome, you will be, and de ervedly be, beld aa much responsible for it at any mta in tbe country. To tay nothing of your saving taught aecession for year before the - war, you hare persistently invited Radical ag gression since the war. Whatever ot bitterness exUU toward North Carolina, for alleged "dis loyalty," hat been more your work than that of any other man noutu or aon and Dixon line, Brownlow and Hamilton not excepted. Two KBQ80U are elected to tbe Legislature of Ifateachusetu. Thit it Radical theory reduced to practice, and tbi it what the Radical would force upon the South. Tot electing hegroet ta repretent them, these Puritan Radicals virtually admit them to be their own equals in morality and infcsUigexce. No one will contest the point. r,.y jjje jorthern Election . .The elections for members of. Congress bnd State officers take place in twelve of tbe States, North, of us,ito-day,;j The present representa tion in Congress- from those Stales is largely judical ofj Reublican.-The opjKwer of tbe President in those States have for months been rallying all their force to maintain their pres ent strength. Every powible partisan itTorf hat been employed, and large sums of money have been expended, to accomplish their ends. In Baltimore, and, indeed, generally,, the most corrupt and extraordinary efforts have ljeen made to keep the Conservative voU-rs'from the polls, and to-day every subterfuge or ! nnf which partizan trickery can invent will le env ployed againet them. r In the meantime the Conservative. llepubli cans and Democrat have not been idle. A better and a biore closely contested canvass has never been madebythu friend of the Consti tu tion and the Union. So" well fought a field de serves success, yet we cannot hope for the Uf ceat we desire for them. "'They have right, end the Constitution, and tlie pcueeof the Ujiion, to prompt their real and eiicrjfyand courage, yet the untoward history of past events' die. not justify the expectation always of the uc oss of the right. We 'therefore- advise our Veadcr-t not to be too hopeful of results- Yet, whatever may transpire, if it bodes ill, should neitlic shake our confidence in tbe rijdit nor turn us from the plain path of duty. Let (lie South, in any event, obey the laws and adhere to the Constitution, and learn to rely more upon .'the results of'an honorable and honest and pcr.tevt-r-ing personal effort to do right, and to work' out ouj own good fortune, and upon the "vum: and. merciful arrangements of . an overruling Provi dence, than upon anything else.

That par ty no one can mistakes-?"-; --;----- If we can judge of the itatut of the popular; feeling from the newspapers, audfrom the. tone of persons, generally, coming .from the North the past three weeks, we think the evidence is manifestly in favor of a growing conservatism in the North, and we are not without hope that the elections of to-day will indicate that a,sober and eteacly ie-action has begun to set in, in fa vor of therrigla, and that tlie bitterness of Rad icalism is working its own cure upon' the body politic. , Vermont' i Condition of Union. A few days ago, Mr. Waldo Buioium, the leader of the Conservatives in the Lower House, of the Vermont Legislature, oflcftid the follow ing resolution : Whereat. It is most desirable that the Union T or au the States should become perfect nt the earliest moment consistent with tho peace ami irelfare of the nation, that every Stale should become fully represented in the national coun cils, and take iu share in tho If-'inhition of tho country ; and, Whertai, The possession and exi-rclae of more than the just share or power by nriy si-ctlon In injurious, and iU tendency is distracting ruul demoralizing, as well to that section ns to nil others) therefore, - lumilntd, by the Senate and Jhum ofJinnvtrn- tatitet, Tbat if tho Southern States, laiclv in insurrection, will adopt, in order to tcrmiiinte our national difficulties, the amendment tn the Constitution ot the United Stulus, proposed by Congress to the Legislatures of the several States, on thelSlh day of June. 18UU. no further conditions should be Mitiircil to cutitlu tho Southern States to 1)6 inimelittcly and - fully represented in the national eouni ilx,. except that their representatives bo loyal nu n. Of course, Mr. BnitufAu's resolution w'hs not expressive of hit si-ntimcnts, or those of any Conservative in Vermont, lie believes iu no conditions of representation, except the right of representation under the forms proscrilicd by the supreme law, . But he gave the .

At we bave more than once pointed out, all their interest will lead ' them 'in tbafr direction. Whenever that shall liapjM-n, we venture to predict that a party will bo developed in New Knglgnd opposed lo tbe re-adii.iasion of the Southern States into tbe Union at all. There is already a very strong conviction within those six compact and ambitious little cotniuonweallbs that the Vnio Mu le bettei ' governed, a?id will be really more ln'mvffe.nau and better adapted to their purpoeet, ieitAoatiie.iiotiththanieithit.n The foregoing remarkable extract is taken from a lale number of the New York TiflM. liavraond, the Editor M that paper,' spoke against tbe Howard amendment in Congress and then voted for it. He now urges the South toaccept it, but at the tame time tells them it will ptobably not avail fhem anything in the way' of restoration, but would probably cause the creation of a party on the basis of their erpctual exclusion. This is comforting in tbe extreme to thowj "patriots" in the South, who Bluet to i'viji the ra.tiCclionr()f the Howard imii-iuliiieiit, a sure and short road to the fold of the Union.

It would have saved countless treasure and hun dreds' of thousands of inestimably valuable liv . It would have left the page of history unstained by the bloodiest chronicle that ever! was written-siuec time began, It would have put civilization forward a century, instead of its being dragged back in darkness and chains.

They may past through much of ; affliction, but all will be right in the end. Re turning tense, of justice and the reign of reason will finally expel prejudice,' passion, malevo leiico hrid hate. At least that is our hope.

This all history proves. As long as the subjugation of Scotland was attempted by war, every crag and fas'ness contained what England called a rell, and in arms. Her policy was changed. Force faiiincr, conciliation was resort ed to, and the happy effect was eluctrioiL The struggle at once ended ; Scotchmen were placed on the same footing with Englishmen,' and from that period to this, peace bus" reigned on - ber whole border, and in the counrfhr-Hiid on the field. Scotchmen htve equally contributed to tbe civil and . military renown of tbe king dom, Towards Ireland, the jiolicy of force sud exclusion from participation in the Government was pursued, and for ages they have produced their unitorm fruits tumult, violence, insurrec tion. Ireland, consequently, has been but an expense and a weakness to the kingdom, instead of being, as she might Lave been made by the opposite policy, a source of its wealth and power, Even now the fleets of England are hovering around the Green jS'e, and her 'armies traversing her fields, to guard against an appre hended outbreak, and "wherever Irishmen are to be lound they are offering their treasure' and their am, and avowing a determination to re cover at all hazards what they assert h.i.i been long lost through oppression their lilteity. - These two instances, it there were-no others. furnish a lesson that should guide u. Treat the South as England ultimately treated Scot land, and all will bo eaee and prosperity. Treat it as Ireland was once treated; and by her sons is said now to be treated, and our Heels must hover around our Southern const, and our armies fill the Southern fluids. A few words more in connection with this subject and 1 shall leave it. President Johnsou is assailed with a malig nant violence: never exhibited in our past politi cal contests. Every abusive epithet that the most depraved imagination can suggest" is ap plied to him. He is even charged with' treas on to the country. His heretofore public life furnisluji him no impunity. To such .inun it-is immaterial that in his whole antecedent career, fie exhibited a pure love'of our land and devo tion to its institutiona, To them it is immate rial that at the outbreak of the insurrect ion he, ajraost alone in the Senate, .denounced, iuid'ih" the most indignant eloquence, thccoutemplatcd treachery and the parties engaged in it. It is immaterial that during the. yr lip ..aubjcclMl himself to constant peri 1J -and devoted every faculty he possessed to its success. Iiuiuiitefhil that the measures which he has adopted ' ami recommends for the restoration of the Union, are,, in all tubstantial respects, the same --those adopted and recommended by Mr. Lincoln, and (wliieh at the moment of his death, as far -as his power extended, lie was ctuiYing Out. It isiin inatcriul that, although Mr. -Lincoln; viaa bit terly censured by the Ieadnra nt' tho present M il sade against Mr.. Johnson, who vainly endeavor ed to defeat his renoiiiiuution, that lie was bo nominated and elected; and that Mr. iIlmon is pursuing the policy of that lamented ituten- man. For so doing treason to Ida country and to his party are alleged against him, and liisex pulsion by impeachment is demanded. Tlie enlightened sentiment of tlie world is known to be with him. Not a vessel arrives from abroad that does not bring evidence ..of this, and that the course of his revilers is strongly condemned.

' Tho whole land is heaving in agitation. A political earthquake threatens us with destruc tion. Ten States, It is said, are already de stroyed, and are so dealt with by Congress. ' They are alleged to bo a. mere heap of chaotic materiols,-to be brought into cohesion and with such shapes as Congress may devise. If this' be so, so fur as these States arc concerned,- the gloriou work of our fathers is destroyed.
