New York. Oct. 24. Gov. Tilden has addressed to Hon.

Abram Hewitt a letter, dated to-day. declaring his position in regard to the Southern claims. He quotes the fourteenth amendment of the constitution, points tof the fact that it has been repeatedly approved by the Democratic State Committee of tlie South and was adopted as a part of the platform of the last National Democratic Convention which declared itto be universallyaccept-ed as a final settlement. Gov.Tilden, after citing his own public declarations on the subject previously ade, says:" Should I be elected President the provisions of the fourteenth amendment will, so far as depends on me, be maintained, executed and enforced in perfect and abso-rate eood faith. No rebel debt will be reissumed or paid; no claim for the loss or emancipation oi any slave wui be allowed; no claim for any loss, or damage incurred by disloyal persons arising from the late war, whether covered by the fourteenth amendment or not, will be recognized or paid.

The cotton tax will cot be refunded. I shall deem it my dnty to veto every bill providing for tbe assumption or payment of any such debts, losses, damages, -claims, or for the refunding of any such tax. The danger to the national treasury is not from claims of persons who aided the rebellion, but from claims of persons residing in the Southern States or havingproperty in those States, who were, or pretended to be," or who for-the sake of the claims, now pretend to have been loyal tx the Government of the Union; such claims, even of loyal persona, where they are from acts caused by the operations of war, have been disowned by the Sublio law of civilized nations, eon-emned by the adjudications of the Supreme Court of the United States, and only find any status by force of soecitic legislation of Congress. These claims have become stale and are often tainted with fraud; they are nearly always owned in whole or in pare by claim agents, by speculators, or lobbyists, who have no equity against tbe tax-payers or the public They should, in all cases, be scrutinised with sealous eare. The calamities to individuals, which were by the late wftr.are, for the moat irreparable.

"The "Government cannot recall to life the million of our -youth who went to unttaaely graves, nor compensate the sufferings -or sorrows of their relatives or friends. It cannot readjust between individuals the burdens of taxation hitherto -bame, or of debts incurred to sustain the Government, are yet to be paid. It cannot apportion anew among our citizen a the damages or losses incident to military-operations or resulting in every variety of form from its measures for maintaining its own existence. It has no safe general -rule but to let bygones be by-gones, to turn from the dead vast to a new and a better future, and on that basis to assure peace, reconciliation and fraternity- between all sections, classes and races of our people, to the end that all the apiinge of our productive industries may be quickened and a new prosperity created, la which the evils of the past shall be Samtjel J.

Terrebonne Politlca. Lower Txxrxboxxe, Oct. 22, 1878. To the Editor of tho Picayune The banner ward of the parish of Terrebonne was aroused yesterday afternoon by the largest and most enthusiastic fathering of its citizens that has been eld since the war. About two weeks before every election, the people of our ward the Bloody.

Eighth," as our fellow-citizens call us hold a public meeting to test the political temper of the ward, to see who, if any, have failed to register, and to hear such of eur candidates as may be pleased to address us. Yesterday was the day fixed for the observance of this good, old Demoeratio custom, and it will be a long time before' its pleasing recollections entirely disapt-pear. There never was a better feeling than now existe in this staunch old Democratic Gibralter. Led by such men as Robichaux, Sanders, Viquerie and La-bat the veteran moulders of public sentiment of the ward, every voter considers, himself a special committee of one to see that his neighbor does his whole duty, and that the prestige of the "Bloody Eighth" shall not be lost. Since the Democratic and Radical parties have divided the people of this State the Conservatives of the lower Terrebonne have voted the straight ticket.

What the people of this ward would do to any one who. in these perilous times, would have the effrontery to fail to vote the straight ticket, is a matter of conjecture, as buch a contingency has never arisen. We claim that, the best political at-mcfephere in the parish pervades this section, and we think our healthy condition shows it. You may expect from us bat we have always given, the solid vote of every white man in the. ward, aud a scoie of votes from as many resectable colored men.

Every Democrat iu the ward is registered, and would feel himself personally dishonored if a single man is left unvoted on the 7thvNovember. The meeting was ably addressed by the candidates on our district ticket D. Moore for the Senate, Lewu.Guion, for District Judge, and John H. District Attorney, as well as by A. Jolet, our candidate for Parish Judge.

When the candidates got through, the issues of the campaign were handled in a masterly manner by Hon. F. S. Goode and L. F.

Suthon, both of whom eloquently appealed to na to preserve untarnished our unblemished and unsullied name. It reminded your corre-t-pondtnt of old times to hear Mr. Goode in this scene of his ante heliuni efforte and successes: and although he seldom appears before us. nowadays to solicit our suffrages in his own behalf, he invariably pays us a visit in the interest of the party nominees. He gave us excellent advice, and it will not be nnheeded.

We will 'give this year the same majority as we gave him last election; and if the other 'sections' of the district do half as well as the Bloody Eighth, our distinguished Senator will for the next two years have as bis colleague his silver-tongued friend. Mr. Meore. Eighth Ward. The Drunkard's Will.

I leave to society a ruined character, a wretched and a memory that will soon rot. I leave to my parents, during the rest of their lives, as much sorrow as humanity in a decrepit and feeble state can bustain. I leave to my brothers as sisters as much mortification and injury as I could conveniently bring upon them, I leave to my wile broken heart, a life of wretchedness and shame, to weep over me and my premature death. I give and bequeath to each of my children poverty, ignorance, a low character, and the remembrance that their father was a monster.

Up She Comes! Light and sweet, the bread made with Gil let's Cream Dry Hop Yeast." The trade winds are-produced by the diurnal revolution of tbe earth, extending from 20 north to 20 south of the equator: and sailors hail with joy their advent into them, after being tempest-toosed and worn, as productive of a season of rest. For weeks they sometimes do not touch a sail, bounding homeward thro fields of sea weed alive with minute shell-fish, and. observe the play of tbe grampus, porpoise, bonita. and the terrified flight of the fl jing fish from tbe latter. How much more delightful then must it he to guide tbe bark of poor humanity into the trade winds of health, out of the head seas of disease and suffering, and make life's future a pleasant voyage.
