l'lie broad and palpable difference
between absolutism and democracy,
consists, ft" everybody know-, in tin*
fart that the former i- the rite of a
-ingle individual, with unlimited
sway, over the people who are Id- sub
ject*, whilst the latter i- self-govern
ment by the people.
.Sometime-, a> in Great Britain, only
certain prerogatives are allowed the
individual ruler, and he i-, by the
very tenure bv which lie hold the -ccp
tre, made lad n /turf of the coveni
ment.
Sometime-, nay in almo-t every
modem instance, governnient by tlit
people is regulated by a written < oii
stitution, adopted by the people them
selves, as in the cn-e of our own coun
try.
We have thus reverted to elementary
principles, in order to lix upon the
mind of the reader the foci that there
is not and cannot be ,my fundamental
distinction between the absolute de—
poli.-m of Ru —ia and our own republi
can system, save thi-: The will of the
Czar is the supreme law of ltu-sia ;
tbe Constitution is the supreme law
of the Cuited State*. Now, if Gen. I .
8. Grant, as President, -et up his own
will instead of and in opposition to the
Constitution, he becomes ab-olute, just
a- he of Ilussia i- absolute, or, if he
substitutes for the terms of tin* Con-ti- |
tution, what he believes te be "the will
of the jH-ople," he make- him.-elf an j
autocrat, for he cannot alter or violate
the Constitution, even at the bidding
of the majority. The Constitution can
he altered only by the concurrent ac
tion of three fourths of the States, or
through the instrumentality of a popu
lar convention constitutionally con
voked.
Ceu. Grant will lake a solemn oath
to maintain and defend the Constitu
tion. If he is the patriot many people
think he is, he will fulfil that oath to
the very letter.
I tut here la the rub! lie lias been
willing to assume dictatorship over the
people of ten States ; will he not extend
his dictatorship over the remaining
twenty-seven? Ile has ruled ten mil
lions of people with th- bayonet; will
he not govern tin* lliirty million- at
whose iiead be will soon stand, by the
same process ?
Time w ill answer these questions.
Jlut two things are certain. Grant,
President, will be a JJemwraf; Grant, :
King, will be a Jiiitlieyit.
so MICH.
The Radicals will not have, a two- '
thirds vote ill the 41st Congress. The
Democrats, have elected s:; members,
the Radicals 132. So much gained.
Radical legislation may now be check
ed, at hrast to some extent. Some of
tile ablest Democrats in the t'nioii,
among them S. S. ( "ox, ./aon s (irooks,
I). W. Voorlie- s, \V. S. Holiuau, M.
C. Kerr and A. Kidridge, have been
elected to this Congress.
Whkk John-(Txsna iieard that be
was beaten 211 in Franklin county, he
got the "Grecian Bend" so badly that
he lias not even yet lawn able to assume
a perpendicular position. It is sup
posed, however, that his conceit is
worse broken than bis back, and that
he may be able to straighten up when
Gov. Geary olliciaily gazettes him a
member elect of the next < 'Ongre——

I? it worth cur while to remind "Re
pobii in-"' of what the Democrats
prophesied would <*oiiie to pas- in the
event of Grant's election? It hardly
pay- for the waste of ink and paper, to
appeal to the treacherous memory or
the hard* ned con-**ienee of such -lave

themselves -; neverthc-ie--. it is

Well, Mr. Republican, we told you
before the election, that if Grant were
chosen President, the Radicals would
claim his election as an endorsement
of their doctrine- in regard to the Ne
gro.
You did not believe u-.
Or, if you did believe u-, you voted
a tie, for you d" !ar*-d that you would
not vote for* Negro Suffrage.

of the insurance was refused on the
ground that Iter husband had invalida
ted his policy by committing suicide, i
This <'ompaiiy also attempted to prove
that the insured man wa-ait atheist or
infidel, and therefore that the- suicide j
was intentional, the deeea-ed not hav- ;
ing the fear of God before him; but the :
court ruled out this its h.Levant, i
and held that in an action to recover j

In the fall of 1567 1 was tak* 11 with
Chills and Fever, with the most se
