DEOATUB, Aug, 24, 1868 EDITOR EB-UNION: Permit a few lines from an old friend, to thank you for copteB of your paper which I receive occasionally. I find you tire again battling manfully for the good old cnuse, and I trust this time not without success. 1 he Democratic party, and in- deed th e whole people ought to feel grate- ful for the splendid ticket presented for their suffrages for President and Vice President of the United States. The experienced and accom pliuhed statesmen now i n nomination for Pre.-ident by the Democratic party, when compared with his competiior, towew above him as the heavens above the earth. T o say noth- ing in comparison of I ha private charac- ter of the two individuals, the Oulighten- ed statesmanship of th e former onght to command, as J. have no doubt it will, the support and confidence of a large major- ity of the people of the United States, jral Sherman, wbo?e ap- proach comr t , llwJ LMB ro retreat with an army of J^ th[m 30000| 8tttrve d and Jincour )ged m(M > In thia f aniQ u 8 oanl . l7 f '-i, Grant lost 117,000 men and Lee .,UC0. Grant's army was splendidly • quipped and abundantly supplied wii.h •imuiiiuniou, horses and provisions, while Leo's me n were indifferently armed and straightened lor ammunition and supplies ot all kindn. Grant's campaign coat over SSilU,000,000, whil« L-e'adisbursements were less than $100,000.000. Such in brief is the foundation of Gr-mi's pretended military fume,on' which i gang of corrupt, a.id perfidious politi- dim.->, are striving to hold on to power, which they have grossly abutted. Used lor such a purpose, and in the shade of such a record, it is not surprising, that he should awaken no enthusiasm on the part of au intelligent people. It is not sur- prising that good men should turn from him and spurn the sffort to make him President. Of all men, Grant should be the last to provoke inveiitigauon, o r stim ulaio criticism. 5>e2uocrulic Convention.

Aa it is sdmitt-td, that he has no civ.l onalificatioiiF, his mil.tnry judgment »>id ta^aoity, becomes a ouhjent of deeper in- terest. If found deficient in these, 1 e standH an&ktd pretender, with, n> qunl ti- oatioDS, or merit to recommend him, or worse, ho in but, an automatic tool of per- fidious politicians, whose crimes have mi dered them unworthy the confi ,enee id rhe people, who have been m basely be- irMyed. If ho had rendered himself really IV mous, by his military exploit?, Ids known mieulouce of character and the known treacherous hands by which lis is moved, would bo a aufficient object ion, to his e!e. vation to the Presidency. Th e Consti- tution contemplates an independent exe- cutive, to act as a check on extravagant and unconstitutional measures ia-cxur^ of the other departments of the guv«rn- fnenr. Hence it is appnrent, that if th e Presidential office, is filled by a trticuleir tool of Congreus, Ibe gnvenirue'it is de- stroyed, both in form and administratis', arid the anarchy and confu.-iion uf a ttan- nition state necessarily follows. It. i~ easy to demonstrate, that the confusion and violence, which now d'stract th e juDtry, are caused by the usurpations Congress, of executive prerogative.--, lDtiorting themselves, by the sword nculent tool, they .>re stri ,^ 6in8 |a»-t!jH executive, mngis rr nn Tne nad the faun? of Washing- »or Jackson with his lack of civil ca \ity and truculent character, he would l B a very unfit person for tho Presidency. ES But , Grant has no milirnry fame, and Vf i'«.ntdtled to none. There is not a smcie *' nr? in the whole course of His General- tbip, which ha s ever rendered a military aian eminent. Alexander, Crasar, Bona- tmrtc and Jackson, became famous by gaining victories with inferior forces, by fkillful strategy, compelling an enemy to Sens nt a disadvantage, and by inflicting great losses on an enemy wi'h cornpam tively a sturdier one on their own part.— All must admit that Grant has no such ground of fame. He never gained a victory with a n inferior force ; he never compelled an winy to figh.. at. a disad- vantage.- He was invariably out-gener- nh-d and always fought at a disadvan- tage; he never fought without lcstm m biled and wounded vastly more that th e iu tbc Richmond campaign, Grant himdled 220,000 men to Le«'s_ 70,000, t hu e to one.

Why, Mr. Edi- tor during the long session of .Congress and th e many debates, that was on this bill an d tho manner in which it was dia- cusaed showed clearly that it was only a pretended Bcherue to excite and try to catch th e foreign votes &o. As a for- eigner and one who served four years fighting tho battles of this Republic, I lelt to degraded by the actit-n Congress had taken towards her adopted citizens, that I dispaired of being a citizen, or even, a Boldier of the U. S. A. I ask, would not any adopted citizen in the tame posi- tion do the same, when they read oi the public slander, ut'ored ircim tho lip* ol some of the leaders of that D.«rk Lantern party wh o occupies sea's in the National Senate, as those of ilie contenpt fathers of tho Republic, and yet. one ol this party degraded himself and pai i.y so much aa to give utterance to sentiments, as full of bigotry and prejudice as ttioae wliioh led t - th» bloody now urni clmrcti burnings of Know Nothing era. While debating on the Naturalization billon the 23d of July last, Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island, made use of the following remarks, \ Aa to tho policy of the easy introduction of foreigners to our citizen- ship, I havo nothing to say, I perhaps should oppose it, as to the Irish who are more Butijectol Church and Priests than ihey ai e instructed in the principles of n Republic, I might exclude them entire ly.\ To these false and disreputable sen timents of Senator Spr'ague and hra Rad- ical party, we Irish adopted cilizeus o m only confront that party and deny their foul assertions, b y referring them to the r. cords in the Adjutant General's Office, showing that 150,000 Irish of foie'gn birth commanded by Generals Shields, Meagher, Corcoran, Mulligan, and hun dreds of such men, fought and bled fight- ing the battles of their adopted country. In conclusion, I will Btate that wa Irish citizens may find it probable that we would be soon called on to do battle in the Nation's cause, and with such men a^ Gen. Shields, of Missouri, H. C. Mur- phy, ot New York and others to numer- ous to mention. We immediately de- clare war against th t Radical party and \we will fight it out on this line,\ if it takes all the Fall, and o n the 31 of No- vember, we will demand of them an un- conditional surrender, which we must have, then we will march Seymour, and Blair triumphantly to Washington, to reign supremo for four yearn.

A RADICAL'S OPINIO N OF GKANI.—• The Danbury (Conn ) Times, whose edi- tor was a Union soldier, and till vhis year a Radical, has thia item m regard to the \General of the army and the Radi- cal candidate for the Presidency,\ Gener- al Grant. \Where has his name won a Binede victory ? Not in New Hampshire, nor in Connecticut. Hi s name never caused an y enthusiasm in the army until the army's work was done, and ib° pros- pect of being led i='° another slaughter- pen was obliterated, and his name in pol- itics has not one convert to the cau?o wbich he has seen lit to shoulder. Si- lence is his statesmanship, obatmacv is his firmness, deceit is his patriotism, and horses his ability. He haa lived in smoke and will end in smoke.\ Seymour's S<npj>«rierH. \We beg leave ao nnnounce that Mr . John Allen, of Ne w York, prominently known as the wickedest man in Ne w York, will shortly take the otump for Beyrnour an^ Blair \— Reformer. It is suggested, that Mr. Bigelow, the wickedest editor of the Reftnmtr take the stump against htm i n favor of Grant, and let the one, who proves himself the wickedest and meanest take the belt, VERMONT ELECTION The World's special sayj: Th e election in Vermont MX State officers and Congressmen, re- sulted fi.s was anticipated, m tho success of the Radical ticket. Tho vote is the krgeBt caBt since the last Presidential election, when Mr. Lincoln received ?0,- 00O majority. The Radical majority is about 2,0.00 oyer last year. In 1864, Grant wrote m relation to his proposed nomination for the Presidency : \I would regard such a consummation, as being highly unfortunate to myselfi if not to the country.\ In 1863 the country , United StatesNavy, died in Cbark-atown, nearly unanimous in lavor of th e Demo- cratic ticket, as it is, if allowed a voice in the Electoral College, they will at least divide the vote with the Radicals. The fact is the negroes themselves are becoming dissatisfied and disgusted with the protestations and inducements which huve; been held u-a. to there by the itiner- ant carpet-baggers and vagabonds from the North, for two o r three years past They have neither got their mules nor lands as promised them, but on the con trary many of tbern have been swindled out of their labor and money if they had any, by these scalhtwags who pretended tci be their especial friends. The writer hereof was in Mississippi for four mouths preceding and during the uite StKte elections, and took especial pains to (•••nverse with the colored people .luring th-j voting dnyg at s^vtral pro- ducts ir traveling through the State, from North to South, and ibuiid ihsm gener- ally, &uch as could converse with any de- gree ol intelligence, rondy to espress their dissatisfaction with their former advisers mid to say that they now believed tneir furriiKr masters were their bea: friends and they shoull g o «.'.>/ dun and not mind what ifc.i v<fjt.r leilows s-iid fiiiy more. Hence tho alarm of the Radical:', alter all their effor s to secure the entire vote of tho former Rebel States, and their attempt to exclude a portion of them from v.iting r.t all, in the oming Presidential E'ection. I was a t Jatkioii, tho Capital of th e State of Mississippi, duriu-j; the sitting ol ilid Convention which was elec- ted :md convened for tho purpose uf re- vising the organic law of tha State. Th e body was cmipottd of about ono-third negroes nud with tho exception ol a ba Iter'/:' ( hjy.ru . or e.o, the balance of whites uud blacks, did not appear to possess or- dinary intelligence, yet diey were nmkm laws for the whole people for time to come. How well they performed their labor is seen in the fact that on submitting their Cviisliti-ticu, to the people, it was voted dov\n by near 8,000 tm.jority, ye t notwithstanding this decided expression against, it, a delegation of some fifteen luvividmdi, mostly if not all candidates fur office, nave vis'ted Washington and end, avon-d to induce Congress to reject enough votes uf ih>j Democratic counties to give iho Strut) »•> the Rudicub, and admit it into the Union, and themselves into otli'e. Thestj are the individuals now clamoring fur on early re-assembling of Congress to enable lhem to feed from the public crib. But the paramount dif- ficult? in ad 'h-jss rnnttt-M is the base at- tempt to place the negro aa the dominant and rulii g rw.

KANSAS.—The Democrats are conduct- ing thejiampaign. with great zeal and ail- ligonce. They have a complete canvass of the State, and there is every probabili- ty that it will go Democratic. LOUISIANA.—There was an enthusias- tic demonstration at Now Orleans Aug . 30 The turnout was immen.-e. The pro- cession was two hours in passing a given point. The streets were thronged. Con- fidence was high and the most thrilling enthusiasm prevailed. Several club3 ol colored men participated. The Radieil loyal leagues m thecity are meagrely at- tended and several are broken up.

In this district the negro vote is very large. The great mass of the npgroes, have come over to the Dem- ocratic sieb. Carpetbag missionaries are hooted nnd driven out by the negroes.

The following ia a severe bit at Cun^re^B and leading radical presses and politic- ians. \Almost any, state, of factn may15()> proven by men who will perjure them*-' selves. Driven to the wall on all of rheir defamatory charges against Gen. Grnnt from anything like trustworthy sources, the democratic leaders have fallen back on the statement sf Ould.'— (Rttormf/:) \By men who will perjure themselves,\ it is presumed, that the Rffonurr refers to the majority members of Congre??, who take an oath lo support the constitution and then confessedly violate it. Tho sources from which the charge of drunk- enness agaim! Gen. Grnnt ore derived, are Greeley and his Tribvnr, Tilton and his Independent, Wendell Phillips nnd a multitude of radical men and pr^es. The charge that. Grant is utterly unfit for the Presidency, is derived from a printed statement of Schuyler Colfax and other represontntive radicals. STAGEa LEAVE WATEK.TOWN.
