THE GREAT ISSUE
WHO IS REAPONIVIRLE FOR THEite,..
HELLION 7
RECORD OF THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY.
Senator Wagon', of Massachusetts, made
a great speech last week in Bangor, Maine,
at the great Republican Mass Meeting.—
The following extracts we commend to the
careful perusal of every reader.
esesAL Oy TIIII MISSOURI COMPROMISE.
Mr. WitsoN commenced by review., the
course of the Democracy since 1853, On
the 4th of March of thatyear It bad received
from the nerveless hand of its fallen rival,
the Whig party, the administration of the
National Government. Alikein victory or
defeat, ho said, the Democratic party had
for twenty years bowed to the slave propa
gandists.
When Cougrers met in 1853 President
Pierce congratulated the nation on "the
sense of repose and security," and gave his
pledge that this "repose is to receive no
shock during my official term." Those
words had hardly made the tour of the
public ere the nation was startled by the
faith-breaking demand for the repeal of the
Missouri Compromise of 1820. After a
fierce struggle of four months the faithless
proposition received the approval of the De
mocratic Congress, the Democratic Presi
dent, and the Dernocralic party. But that
crowning victory shattered the ranks of po
litical organi7ations. The Whig party was
broken utterly. Hundreds of thousands left
the disordered ranks of the Democracy.—
Nearly a million and a half of men ranged
themselves togther to recover that lost ter
ritory—to oppose the further extension of
slavery and the longer domination of slave
masters.
Although the Democracy came out of the
contest of 1866 victorious, its chiefs could
not fail to see that it escaped defeat by the
timidity of that conservatism which shrank
appalled before revolutionary menaces. In
that grand uprising, in that doubtful strug
gle on the prairies of Kansas, the slave-mas
ters saw their waning power. They fired
the Southern heart with malignant hate and
bitter scorn of Yankee institutions. Re
solved, in the words of Calhoun, whose dis
ciples they were, "to force the slavery issue
upon the North," they wrung from the Su
preme Court the Dred Scott dicta. They
bade New Mexico enact a slave code, and
also 4 code for the servitude of white labor
ing men. They sent Walker to Central
America to win territory, "for," in the
words of Brown, of Mississippi, "the plant
ing and spreading of slavery," and they sigh
ed for Cuba, which they could not clutch.
THREATS OF otssoLvrso THE UNION.
When the nation was looking forward to
the approaching Presidential election of
1860, these Southern Democratic leaders,
frenzied with the fanaticism of slavery,
came into the XXXVIth Congress haught
ily threatening the dismemberment of the
Union if the people should choose a Chief
Magistrate odposed to slavery extension,
protection, and domination. Jefferson Da
vis, foremost among that unhallowed com
bination, had spent the summer of 18;19 in
the North. Returning to Mississippi in the
autumn of thaticar with assuranas
W
Northern Democrats would throttle the Re
publicans in their tracks," he advised the
people of the South to turn their old mus
kets Into Minie rifles, prepare powder, shot,
and shell; for if the Republicans should
elect the next President, he was "for assert
inipthe independence of Mississippi, for the
immediate withdrawal from the Union."
Brown, not to be outdone by his rival,
"would make a refusal to acquire territory,
because it was to be slave territory, a cause
of disunion." Clay declared that Alabama,
"if she is not recreant to all that State pride,
integrity, and duty demand, will never sub
mit to your authority." Toombs called upon
Georgia to "listen to no vain babblings, no
treacherous jargon about over acts; the
enemy is at your door ; wait not for him at
the hearthstone, but meet him at the door
" Iverson would not even submit to
the election of John Sherman for Speaker.
"In that event," he exclaimed, "I would
walk Out of this Capitol. I would counsel
my constituents instantly to dissolve all
political ties with a party and a people who
thus trample on our rights." Clingman
would wait for no over act, 'no other"overt
act' can so Imperatively demand resistance
on our part as the simple election of their
candidate." Nearly two millions of men,
regardless of the treasonable menaces and
revolutionag teachings of the Democratic
leaders, thronged to the ballot-box and
made Abraham Lincoln President of the
United States.
THE TREATS CARRIED orr.
South Carolina, trained for thirty years
in the school of treason, leaped headlong
into rebellion ; other States quickly follow
ed her example. Then the vaunted South
ern Confederacy, the dream of slave per
petualists for a generation, rose on the basis
that involuntary servitude was the normal
condition of the Black race in America.
Coming into Congress, with lofficial oaths
on their-perjured lips, these architects of
ruin plotted conspiracies in Congress, in
the Cabinet, in the army, in the navy,
everywhere, for the dismemberment of the
Union and the death of the nation. While
these conspirators were organizing treason,
sedccing the weak and corrupting the venal,
while they were seizing forts, arsenals,
arms, and millions of public property, rais
ing batteries for assault or defence, tiring
upon the old flag, which covered bread for
starving soldiers, they were receiving, not
the withering, blasting rebukes of insulted
patriotism, but aid and comfort from their
Northern Democratic associates.
AID AND COMFORT FROM THE DEMOCRACY OF
THE NORTH.
The Democratic President, poor, weak
old man, made haste to assure the insurrec
tionary chiefs, that he had arrived at the
conclusion "that no power had been dele
gated to Congress to coerce into submission
a State which is attempting to withdraw, or
which has entirely withdrawn, from the
confederacy." Attorney General Black pro
nounced against the power of the Govern
ment to coerce a seceding State, and main
tained that the attempt to do so "would be
an expulsion of such State from the Union,"
and would absolve all the States "from their
Federal obligations," and the people from
contributing "their money or their blood to
carry on a contest like that."
Jefferson Davis, when. he assumed the
Presidency of the Confederate Government,
and proclaimed that "we have entered up
on a career of independence, and it must be
inflexibly pursued, through many years of
controversy, with our late associates of the
Northern States," held the written assurance
of ex-Presidertt Pierce, who believed that
the disruption of the Union would not occur
without "blood," that "the fighting will not
be.along Mason and Dixon'e line merely ;
it, will.be within our own borders, In our
OVA streets."
Peadretoo declared, is the Rouse of Re-
OEM
presentatives, in the presence of his Demo
cratic associates, that- "armies, money,
blood cannot maintain this Union," "the
whole scheme of coercion is impracticable,"
"it is contrary to the genius and the spirit
of the Constitution," He, who had never a
word of cheer for the loyal, assured the re
tiring conspirators that "if they must leave
the family mansion, I would bid them fare
well so tenderly, that they would be forever
touched by the "recollection." Vallandig
ham proclaimed that "If any one of the,
States should secede, I never would, as a
Representative in Congress, vote one dollar
whereby one drop of American blood should
be shed in civil war." Referring to that
early pledge of faithlessness to his country,
after armed treason had opened its batteries
upon the steamer bearing food to the famish
ing defenders of beleaguered Sumpter, he
defiantly said, "I deliberately repeat and
reaffirm it, resolved, though I stand alone,
though all others yield and fall away, to
make it good to the last moment of my of
ficial life."
In that time of peril, when the Govern
ment jotted beneath the blows rained upon
it by Democratic traitors, there came from
Democratic orators, Democratic
. presses,
and Democratic convocations, all over the
North, bitter reproaches to loyalty, and
words of cheer to disloyalty. From the
capital of the Empire State, from that great
Democratic convention at Tweddle Hall,
Horatio' Seymour sent forth these words, to
burden the patriotic men who were main
taining the just power of the Government,
and to cheer on its deadliest foes : "Let us
see if successful coercion by the North Is less
revolutionary than successful secession by
the South." Did not these utterances of
such exponents of Northern Democracy lin
ger in the memory of Governor Orr, when
he said to the men of South Carolina
"Many of yon will remember that, when
the war first commenced, great hopes and
expectations were held out by our friends in
the North and West that there would be no
war, and that, if it commenced, it would be
north of Mason and Dixon's line, and that
it would not be in the South ?"
When Southern Senators were announ
cing that the slave States were intending to
go out of the Union, that a "Southern Con
federacy will be formed, and it will be the
most successful government in the world
timid conservatism demanded a compro
mise, by which the nation, by irrepealable
constitutional amendments, was to recog
nize, establish, and protect slavery in the
Territories then held, or which might there
after be acquired south of 36 deg. 30 min. ;
to deny power to Congress to abolish slave
ry in the nation's capital; to allow slave
masters and flesh-jobbers to take slaves in
and through the free States ; to take from
men of African descent citizenship and suf
frage, and to send out of the country, at the
expense of the Treasury or the United
States, such free negroes as the States might
desire to have removed.
THE REPUBLICANS POWERLESS.
Day by day, during that terrible winter,
the Republicans in Congress, powerless to
save, saw with the profaundent sorrow
their riven and snattered country sinking
into the fathomless abyss of disunion. A
Democratic President, a Democratic At
torney General, had surrendered the life
preserving powers of the Government. A.
T[h7finances and sinking the na
tional credit. A Democratic Secretary of
War was seattt.ring the army, and sending
muskets, cannon, and the munitions of war
to be clutched by rising trators. A Demo
cratic Secretary of the Interior was per
mitting the robbery of trust funds held by
the Government. A Democratic Secretary
of the Navy was rendering that "right arm"
of the national service powerless. A Dem
ocratic Mayor of the commercial capital of
the country was proposing to make that
capital a free city, independent of the Na
tional Government. Democratic leaders
were ostentatiously giving pledges "never
to vote a man or a dollar" for coercion.—
Democrats were giving their assurances
that regiments marching to the coercion of
the South, "must pass over their dead
bodies." Sam Houston hail not called to
gether the Legislature to hasten . Texas out
of the Uulim. Iverson said, that if he did
not yield to the sentiment of the people,
"some Texan Brutus may arise to rid his
country of this old, hoary-headed traitor."
The unarmed "Star of the West," bearing
food to the defenders of Sumpter, was
turned back by the frowning batteries of
reason. Wield' tauntingly told U 9 tha
she had swaggered into Charleston harbor,
had received a stunning blow on the fore-
head, and staggered out helpless, and we
dare not resent it, .
Soon the men to whom the Government
had been entrusted were summoned to its
defence. Mr. Lincoln, In assuming the
administration, had proclaimed to his dis
satisfied countrymen of the South that "the
momentous issues of civil war were in their
hands." Fearing that the already aroused
passions of the South might not completely
sever the bonds of affection, the rebel
Secretary of War ordered the batteries me
nacing Summter to open their fires upon
that devotafortress. That order was swift
ly obeyed. The flag of united America
came down, and the Confederate flag waved
over its smoking ruins. Thus was in
augurated, by Southern Democrats, that
great civil war in which 350,000 loyal lives
were sacrificed, 400,000 were wounded, $4,-
0030300,000 were expended, and the produc
tive industries of the country burdened
with an enormous debt.
The uprising of the people, startled by
the echoes of the cannon which treason
trained on Sumpter, had silenced the rebel
sympatbi7ing Democracy. Little was now
heard against "coercion ; " bat Breckenridge,
who yet lingered in the Senate, and Powell,
Pendleton, Cox, Vallandigham, and their
Democratic associates, protested against'
"the subjugation of the South." The Ad
ministration raised and sent into thi field
more than two million men, created the
most powerful navy that ever rode the
ocean, fought six hundred actions upon land
and sea, "coerced"rebel States, "subju
gated" the South, destroyed or captured the
rebel armies, and utterly annihilated the
power of the Confederate government.
In this grand work, applauded by earth
and blest of heaven, the Democratic party
had no part whatever. After civil war had
reddened the bright waters and green fields
with the blood of our slain sons— after it
had sent wounds, sickness, and sorrows
into the homes of the people—the Demo
cratic party persistently continued to resist
every measure for the nation's defence, if
that measure tended in the slightest degree
to weaken the admitted cause of all our
woe.
In 1864 when Grant was holding Lee in
his grasp in the rebel capital, and Sherman
was lighting his bloody way to Atlanta,
when patriot hearts were cheered by, the
hope of soon subjugating the rebellion, the.
Democratic party assembled at Chicago.—

with their rebel Democratic friends in rebel

and demanded "the cessation of hostilities."
The Republican party met in convention,
declared for the complete abolition of slav
ery, the subjugation of the rebellion, and
the re-election of Abraham Lincoln. The
Democracy, boastful as is its wont, received
21 out 0f234 electoral votes, and was beaten
by a popular majority of more than 400,000 ,
votes.
TIM ISSUE IN 1868.
In November there is to be another strug
gle between these two parties for the control
of the National Administration. The Re
publican party met at Chicago, reaffirmed
its policy of reconstruction, pronounced
against all forms of repudatlon, for the re
duction and equalization of taxation, for
the equal protection of American citizens,
for the recognized obligations to our sol
diers and to the widows and orphans of the
gallant dead, and fur the removal of re
strictions imposed upon rebels as rapidly as
the safety of the loyal people will admit.—
The convention then preSented the name of
General Grant, the great captain, who has
so often marshalled our armies to victory ;
and Schuyler Colfax, a statesman of pure
life, stainlea honor, and commanding in
fluence.
The Democa.ttic party assembled in na
tional convention in New York. Horatio
Seymour again presided. That selection of
its presiding officer was a monition to the
country that this convention would be no
more patriotic or wise than was the Demo
cratic Convention of 1864, There assem
bled the self-same leaders, or their com
peers, that pronounced, in 1864, the war, to
preserve the nation's life, "a failure," and
demanded "a cessation of hostilities,"
which would have made inevitable a dis
memberment of the Republic and the death
of the nation. To that convention came
also a few disappointed, sour, and fallen
spirits, who once were enlisted with the
legions of Liberty, but who were never
imbued with the generous and ennobling
impulses of Human Equality. There came,
too, the exponents and representatives of
the "lost cause."
TILE RPLING SPIRITS OF THE NEW YORK COE-
VENTION
There was Wade Hampton, of South
Carolina, who, on his way to the conven
tion, said to the students of General Lee's
college, "the cause, for which Stonewall
Jackson fell, cannot be in vain, but in
some form will yet triumph." There was
Gov. Vance, of North Carolina, who told
rebel troops, during the war, to "pile hell
so full of Yankees that their feet will stick
out of the windows." There was Buckner,
of Kentucky, who came to Washington at
the opening of the war, to procure arms
for his State and a commission for himself;
but who went back to Kentucky, betrayed
his State and country, joined the rebel
rankiand was afterwards forced to surren
der - unconditionally" to Gen. Grant.—
There was Preston, also of Kentucky, who
abandoned his State, became a rebel gen
eral—a commissioner and conspirator in
Europe—against his country. There was
Basil Duke, one of John Morgan's lieuten
ants, in his thieving, robbing and murder
ous raids through Ohio and Indiana. There
was Robert Quid, of Virginia, a rebel gen
eral and commissioner, and familliar with
the horrors of Belle Isle and Libby Prison.
concerning whose fiendish conduct a Con
gressional committee thus report, "Of men,
from three hundred to four hundred are
known to have been killed at Fort Pillow,
of whom at least THREE IWNDRED were
murdered in cold blood after the post
was in possession of the rebels, and our
men had thrown down their arms and
ceased to offer resistance." Of one hund
red and eighty-two members of the conven
tion from the rebel States, there was not one
Union man of well known and approved
loyalty. There were more rebel soldiers
than soldiers of the Union army—more
members of Jeff. Davis' Congress than of
the Congress of the United States. Is there
any wonder then, that one who had heard
the rebel battle yeti in the land of the rebel
lion should have Instinetfvely exclaimed,
"the rebel yell," as he heard the shout that
arose at the words of Wade liompton's
resolution declaring the reconstruction
acts "revolutionary, unconstitutional, and
void It"
WRY TUE REBELS SUPPOET BEYMOT AND
B 1 tll2,
iioary A, Wise proclaims that "secession
is more alive than ever," and he supports
Seymourand Blair because they will "as
sume military power" fur the overthrow of
the reconstructed governments of the South.
Vance boasted to the people of Riclunend,
on his home from the New York conven
tion, that "the South would gain by the
election of Seymour and Blair all it fought
fbr in the Rebellion." Admiral Semmes,
who commanded the Alabama when the
gearsage, in the face of Europe, sent her
to the bottom of the seas, and who reveng
ed himself by destroying unarmed Yankee
whalers after the rebellion had been sub
dued, said, in a ratification speech at Mo
bile : "I have been a Democrat all my life,
before the war, during the war, and since
the war, and fought the war on the princi
ples of the Democracy • * • The grand
old Ddmocratic party has risen from its
long slumber—and the election of Seymour
and Blair will reduce the negro tog subor
dinate position as an inferior race." Percy
Walker told the same Mobile assemblage
that this is the first time, since Lee tendered
, to the •enemy that sword which "flashed
victoriously over so many battle-fields, that
I have seen a light on the clouds hanging
over the South ;" for "the great Democratic
party has taken up our cause." Robert
Toombs, who went into the Rebellion for
the right to call the roll of his slaves on
Bunker Hill, and came out of the Rebellion
without the right to call that roll on his own
plantation, vauntingly proclaimed to the
Democracy of Georgia, in mass convention at
Atlanta, that, "as the war late was produced
by the defeated Democratic party in 18G0,
we shall never have peace till it is restor
ed in 1868." He divines the mission of the
party, for he tells the delighted Georgians
that "the grinning skeletons which have
been set up in our midst as legislators shall
be ousted by Frank Blair, whom the Dem
ocratic party has expressly appointed for
that purpose. All these things shall be
swept •from the bosom of the country."
Howell Cobb, denouncing Governor Brown,
the loyal white men of Georgia, and repent
ant rebels and loyal men, who are honestly
striving to secure peace, order and law, as
traitors to the country, thus characterizes
and counsels concerning them : "You owe
it to the living, you owe it to your own
children and to their children. Write down
in their memories this day, and all days,
and for all time to come, the feeling and
spirit of abhorrence with. which you
regard and estimate these men. 0,
Heaven l for some blistering words that
Lmay write infamy upon the forehead of
these men; that they may travel through
earth despised of all men, and rejected of
heaven, scorned by the devil himself. They
may seek their final congenial resting-place
under the mudsills of that ancient instltl3-
tion.' This reconstructed Democrat is the
I same Howell Cobb, of whom Andrew
Johnson said : "Cobb remalmal in the Cab
inet until the treasury was bankrupt, and
the Malone! credit disgraced at home and
abroad, and then he conscientiously sece
ded."
Wade Hampton called on his Democratic
associates in New York to "register an
oath" that they would place Seymour and
Blair in the White House, it they received
the majority of the white votes, "in spite of
all the bayonets that can be brought against
them." Th's rebel trooper and Democratic
leader tells the people of the South "not to
employ any one, white or black, who gives
aid to the Republican party."
TOZ FIFTY OF PATMOTS.
Mr. Wilson concluded as follows : —"Con

ical organizations those words of holy

you shall do something to heat the wounds
of war, rebuke and repress lawlessness and
violence, develop the material and -moral
forces of the land, secure equality of rights

ABOLITION Or THE NATION* i
BANhM.
Among the cherished plans of the Demo
cratic party is one that has not yet made
its appearance in any regular platform re
solution, but which is avowed, nevetheless,
by no less a man than es-Senator Pugh, of
Ohio, the friend of Pendleton. At a Sey
mour and Blair ratification meeting held in
Cincinnati last week, Pugh said that "the
Democratic party demanded that the na
tional banks be abolished." It is to be
here remarked that he did not put this forth
as his personal view. lie said that the
party demanded it, and he was undoubtedly
right. The party Is altogether opposed to
the banking system now established. The
party in Congress voted against the pass
age of the law. It has consistently, ever
since, voted for every proposition to restrain
the privileges of the banks, to supersede
their currency, to Impose constant additional
new burdens upon them, and to attempt to
render then odious In the eyes of the public
by incessant attacks upon them. When
the act to enable the Pennsylvania State
banks to organize under the national sys
tem was pending - In the Legislature, every
Democrat voted against it. In New York
the Democratic opposition to the change
was so great that the banks carne in very
slowly and reluctantly, and the party or
gans continually inculcated the idea that
they were doing it under compulsion from
the national government.
3lr. Pugh was therefore perfectly right in
saying that his party demanded the aboli
tion of the national banking system. Such
is and has been its purpose all along, and
although it has not had the courage to put
it into the national platform, it is none the
less a regular tenet of the party. This sys
tem took the place of a localized banking
system, in which in most of the States
there was really no security whatever for
the outstanding currency and no limit to it.
Banks issued as much as they chose, and
gave no guarantee of ever redeeming it.—
In some other States there was a stock secu
rity system, which did give the note hollers
something to rely upon, although the guar
antee varied in value with the credit of the
State. The paper currency of a large ma
jority of the State banks was unsecured.—
The national system was modelled after the
best of the State security plans, but afforded
additional safb-guards.
Prior to its adoption, our currency was
almost entirely localized, liable to a dis
count everywhere except just at home, and
a source of universal trouble and loss. All
this has been changed by the adoption of a
that renrter , ..“ - r7V7I
national 0...1 umform throughout the.
country. In proposing to abolish this the
Democratic party obviously means to return
to the intolerable localized State bank cur
rency. The people, who have tried both
plans. may make their choice between -
them. By the national system, no note
holder can pormibly lose anything by
the failure of a bank. By the old sys
tem, the note-holder was generally left
without hope in such a ease. By the na
tional system, the amount of the currency
s fixed and publicly known. By the old
system it had no limits whatever.— / 1 / 4 i/a.

The Republican Policy is to correct
whatever evils may ex kt in the hank=
log System, and make it tributary to
the business interests 'of the country.
Its violent overthrow would result in
a paralysis of business, and great In
jury to the Industry of the country--
But the Southern Rebels care nothing
for this. These National Banks are in
the hated North. Their destruction
will chiefly harm the North, and re
duce its labor somewhat to the level of
the bankrupted South. So, the Rebels
say, "it won't be our funeral, let it go

As the Northern Democracy are
merely the tender to the fiontheru lo
comotive, they obey orders, blindly,
even to their own destruction,and that
of the section in which they live.
U-KLVIWILLAN INHENTUCK Y,
A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette gives an interesting account of
this wicked and murderous Rebel-Cop
perhead organization
"This society extends all over the South,
and its great object Is to put the rebel or
Southern wing of the Democracy in power
and defeat the reconstruction measures of
Congress. There Is no doubt about the
formidable proportions of this organization
in this State, and there is no doubt about
the efforts of this organization to raise
money to-influence the elections wherever
Republicans have a show of success. In
diana will feel the potency of this or
ganization in its sending both men and
money to that State.
There is also no doubt but thal this socie
ty' will be the moving body in all such
schemes as Blair's to upturn the recon
structed Governments: This powerful and
desperate body of men mean mischief.—
They will use every means within the reach
of bold and desperate men to accomplish
their designs. At their call an army
would spring into existence in Ken
tucky in a very short time. They aro
ready to stake a great deal upon success in
their present movement. They assert,
everywhere, with great confidence that
Grant will be defeated, reconstruction over
thrown and negro voting abolished.
Let loyal men who love the Union be
upon their guard, for they have to deal
with quite a different class of people front
those that composed the Sons of Liberty of
war times. We hope that good citizens,
North and West, will take these flatters in
hand and settle them for all time to come ;
for, if they do not, the whole power of the
South will pass into their hands and be con
solidated and used for purposes directly
hostile to those results which the loyal peo
ple have been endeavoring for near four
years to evoke from the happy terdiination
of our civil contest. Liberty, that liberty
declared by the Declaration of indepen
dence to be the birth-right of man, 14
on trial in this Presidcaal campaign,
as it has not been since Lee surren
dered. Would that the people could be
aroused to the energy neccomary to meet
this crisis in the affairs of the nation tut
they met that of the war. Then all would
be well."
