DEHOt'BACT AID ABIHTOCHACY.
In the sense of these terms as they
are used in modern times their mean
ing is sj-nonymoui. Even in the hal
cyon days of Democracy wo find it the
advocate of class and caste. It is the
tail end of a long line of inherited no
bility striving to hold the mastery.
Tin liourlmus of America. Where
Momiruhs nilo ilis government is held
by crafty nobles century after century,
liarouiul tyranny andfuudul faction
always flourish there. This is what
Democracy attempted to perpetuate
on the free soil of America, for proof
of which the reader is referred to the
K!iul condition of the South before the
war and the sayings of her Statesmen.
Her social system was thoroughly im
pregnated with tlio idea that there
must be a governing cla.-s and a class :
to be (invented. How far she sue-1
i cccded may be attested by tho complete
'subjection under which tlio masses la
I bored, which compelled them to take
j up arms ai'tiust themselves at the
j bidding of 'these ruling spirits. Not
j only did this influence bind tho negro
I and the "white trash" of the South but
. , it extended into tho North and found
among her freemen enough subjects to
peril her freedom. Miscreants who
cringed to the S 'cptre tyrants know so
well how to wield power. Though
they appealed finally to tho sword and
were deflated, no doubt remains but
that they would build an cnipiro on
the ruins of our Republic if by cajolery
and deceit they ran blind the light of
Republicanism and by fawning upon
honesty and toil they can forge a chain
it will bo impossible to sever. How
easily this may bo accomplished du-
them as a : l)CI"'s "l'nn the good sense of the la

strate and assure him that Grant (lis
played tact, energy and ability in his
j campaigns, that he seemed to labor for
! tho good of the whole country and was
wi.se enough to lot politics alone, but at
all times when necessary ho was out
spoken in his demands for justice and
right, that the office sought the man
and not the man the office. Then
listen, "I don't like tho Chicago plat
form." There's where the secret lies.
Yet Grant in his letter of acceptance
says, "if elected President I shall
have no policy of my own to en
force against the will of the people !"
He is weary of politic and politicians,
but cannot accept Grant because he
"never. said any thing," and is anything
else but a politician. lie is no sol
dier admirer and hates the Republican
party. What shall bo done in his
case ? The only thing we know of is,
treat him as the noncnity he is. Pray,
where can there be found a man ap
proaching the statesman nearer than
Grant, who dabbled as little in public
affairs? Where in the history of our
country have we but tho one precedent
of the office of President seeking a
man ? Now that the pcoplo have him
as their candidate it remains for the
honest men of all parties to sec that he
is elected.
While Gen. Grant was acting as
Secretary of War, Andrew Johnson,
iu a message to Congress, declared
that "great reductions of expenses had
been effected under his administration
of the War Department, to the taving
of millions to Treasury." Now the
party that champions Johnson's cause
declare hitn unfit for President, with
out executive ability, a wooden man,

Wo aro again importuned to pub
lish an advertisement for an agent to
sell a "History of the War, with its
Cnuscs, Character, Conduct and Re
sults;" by Alex. II. Stephens, of Geor
gia, late Vice President of tho so
called Confederacy. Hccollecting the
contempt with which Mr. Stephens
treated tlio Northern people in a
speech delivered in 185G, and that by
such means lie and his confreres crea
ted in the South the spirit of rebellion;
keeping fresh in our memory the fa
mous Georgia Convention speech of
Mr. Stephens, after tho rebellion was
inaugurated, in which ho told his peo
plo the United States Government had
given no cause for it and h.ad not only
been just but partial to the South in
bestowing its favors; and renmmbering
yet after all Mr. Stephens did accept
tlio Yi'-o Presidency of tho so-called
Confederacy and make a speech in
favor of his new government, declar
ing that Slavery was tho rock upon
which it was founded "as Christ was
thu Rock of tho Christian Church."
When wo bear in mind these acts and
payings of Alexander H. Stephens, wo
: havo no wi.sh to be tho means of in-
flirting more of them upon the people.
Mr. Stephens is now becoming" quite
an old man, and will soon like Ru
ehnimn, pass to that "bourne whence no
traveler returns," and as we can say
nogaidof the man, let him pass quietly
along. Wo do not wish to feed him,
or starve him,as ho did our prisoners
at Anderson vi lie. I jet rebel sheets
nnd rebel hands caro for him as best
thev may.

Last Friday night Seymour made
his last bid for tho Presidency before
his friends in New-York. II is speech
for brazen effrontery and willful false
hood exce?ds anything we have seen
in that lino of lato. The Pittsburgh
Gazette remarks concerning it : .
Gov. Seymour's address was prefaced
decorated and concluded with tho
amount of misrepresentation and par
tizan demiigoguery usually found in
Democratic speeches, and which even
the distinguished orators of that party
aro compelled to adopt ns tho only
medium through which they make sea
sonable counsel or ndmonitions heard
by tltet r followers'. Rut under cover
of all this clap-trap and humbug, be
has managed to deal a savagoly elfcct
tive blow at tho greenback-nonsense
of Pendleton, nnd the obtuso folly of
tho fellows who arc still clamorous for
"a white nun's government." The
precise extent of tho influence which
this speech will have with tho party at
large, tho next fortnight will disclose.

Horatio Seymour in his Thursday
nights speech fires a hot shot point
blank into tho Pondletonian camp.
How it can be possible for two princi
pals and their faoti -ins, as c-sentially
different as those, to harmonize will bo
tho business of the convention of

will end as it did in the Southern Con
federacy. ' At the outset tiic citizens of
Richmond went to market with their
money in their vest pockets nnd
brought back their dinners in their
baskets; in the end they took their
money in their baskets, and took
home their dinners in their vest pock
ets." A PASsexoeii by a night train on
the Hudson lliver railroad tells the
following: The train was detained at
Greenbush for a little while, and while
waiting, a cattlo train came on the
other track and stopped. Such a noise
has seldom been beard ; the cattle bel
lowed, the sheep set up a bleating, and
the hogs grunted; until the passengers
were nearly crazed. One old fellow
had slept for hours, but this noise woke
him, Iluhbingliis eyes, ho listened in
amazement. "Aye, aye !" says lie,
"what's this?" Peering into the dark
ness without discerning anything, and
listened more critically, heat last sat
isfied himself, and sat the passengers
roaring by the exclamation, "That
must bo a Dcmocratio convention."
Colfax T. Conlfax.
A dispute having arisen between
some persons in Dos Moines, Iowa,
relative to tho pronunciation of the
name of tho Republican candidate for
Vice President, one of them addressed
him a letter of inquiry. A portion
contended that it was pronouned Col-
rtar,others claimingthat it was Coalfax.
The sjicaker's reply reads as follows:
Washington, May zt. My nrst
name is pronounced as if written Sky
ler, and the last as if written Coalfax.
The "a" doubtless dropped out in
crossing the ocean.
The Vela.
The President's veto of tho Omni
bus Reconstruction bill occupied the
attention of the House just twenty
minutes, and the Senate ten minutes.
The bill went through the upper
branch by thirty to eight, and the
lower branch by one hundred and five
to thirty. The Democrats express a
good deal of disgust with Johnson, be
cause he required them to aimin
indorse his policy. . . j.t .. . ,

State's Attorney uv the county. These
facts in his biography I got from his
own lips, Ef there's any discrepancies,
uv coarse the committee on biography
will reconcile cm. It may be that he
may hev done too much wich is to
say, ef all ho pays is troo, he would be
two or throe hundred years old. Ef
so, it will have to be pared down. He
hez bin justis uv the peece tor ten years
in his native township, which gives a
splendid knowledgo uv constooshnel
law.
5. He's trooly nnshnel in his views.
He knows no north, no south, no east,
no west, no nothing. That Inst qual
ification mite prejtidis some agia him,
but to nio its his chief holt. Jor with
sich a man in the Prcsidei chair
I would bo safe. We hev an abun
dance uv sich men as Wood, Seymour,
Vallandygum, ct settry, who can man
age a President, but are too odorous
to be clectid very much to that posi
shen themselves. Then its necessary
that precisely sich a man cz I hev des
cribed be elect id; and the fact that
Chase knows too much is the objec
tion I her to him. Polk was manage-
able. Pierce' eminently bo, and poor
old Booknnnoii was wonderfully plia
ble. Sich is the candidate wich I present.
Thero aro many pints in bis favor.
Our people wood to-wunst exclaim,
"Who'n thunder is Kippins?" and
before they cood find out the day uv
election wood bo on cm, and they'd
vote him. His hevin no record is also
in his favor. Wat wood Pendleton,
Vulandyghuni, Seymour and Wood
give ef they bed no record? A record
is like a tin kittlo to a dog's tale it's
a noisy appendage which makes the
dog conspicuous, and invites everybody
to shy a brick at him.

Gov Browxi.ow of Tenn?3srH in
his newspaper, The ICioxville Uliio,
expresses the following opinion : "Of,
the States now in the Union, we con
cede Kentucky and Maryland as cer
tainly against Grant Oregon and
Connecticut we set down as doubtful,
All theother States we claim forGrant,
no matter who may be nominated at
the Xew-York gathering of old Demo
cratic prostitutes, Whig renegades, and
defeated Pebels. Of tho Southern
States that may b-3 admitted to vote,
we claim one-half for Grant, certain,
and consequently we claim the trium
phant election of the Kepublican
ticket." ,

General Grant, though not a politi
cian, has a parenthetical way of stating
great truths and sententious facts
which is remarkable.
As early us the second year of the
war, in a letter to Mr. Washburno, he
writes: "I never was an abolitionist
not even what could be called anti
slavery but I try to judge fairly and
honestly, and it beeamo patent to my
mind early in the rebellion that the
North and South could never live in
peace with each other except ns one
nation, and that without slavery."
Anil ngain : "As anxious as I nm to
seo peaco established, I would not,
therefore, 00 willing to s'0 any settle
ment until this question is settled."
In his general order to bis soldiers
after tho capture of General Lee, in
referring to the enforcement of the
emancipation proclamation, he calls
"slavery tho cause and pretext of tho
rebellion."
In his famous letter to tho Presi-
,li ,,.l.;i ,.i;,, a wm f.fwnpi
Ut.II, .... .-.. 7 .v.v....,
m interim, ho savs: "I stated that the
law was binding upon me, constitu-
tionalor not, until set aside by the
proper tribunal" a doctrine that will !
do to stand hy.
In his testimony before tho impeach
ment committee, he says: "I have al
ways been attentive to my own duties,
and tried not to interfere with other
people's." And again, "I never was
in favor of a general amnesty until the
timo should eomo when it would be
safe to give it."
In bis correspondence with Presi
dent Johnson in reference to the re
moval of General Sheridan from the
district of Louisiana, he says: " This
is a Republic where tho will of tho
people is tho law of the land. I beg
that their voice may bo heard."
In his speech to tho committee ap
pointed to inform him of bis nomina
tion, ho said: "If chosen President, I
shall have no policy of my own to en
force against the will of tho people."
In his letter accepting the Republi
can nomination, ho says: "Purely nd-
' ministrative olliiiers should always b
left to execute the will of tho people.
I havo always respected that will nnd
always shall.
These are only samples of General
Grant's manner of expressing groat
truths, culled nt random from our
files; but they arc "apples of gold in
pictures of silver," and show to the
people tho manner of man he is.

Women's Rights have achieved an
extreme illustration in the Paraguayan
war. Lopa has organized and armed a

to be the real, ruling spirit in the bit
ter conflict against the allied invaders.
Mn. Wilson's resolution, author
izing tho otll ;e:s and soldiers of the
army to wear the corps badges of their

gleamed in battle are the true heral

Twelve hundred southern white men
were, on Monday, made citizens by
act of Congress. All the Democrats
in tho House, except one, voted against
removing tlio political disabilities of
these twelve hundred. We have been
told so often by the Democrats that
this is a white man's government, that
wo supposed, not unnaturally, they
would joyfully vote to make it so ; but
they seem to prefer what they call ne
gro rule. Tho fact is, we suppose,
that they would disfranchise every
body but tho Democrats; for we
notice that wherever they can get a
negro to vote tho Dcmocratio ticket
they have nothing to say agninst black
votes. A 1'. Pout.
