la There any Ileal Democracy la the
Democratic Party f
It would puzzle any man to point out the rea
democracy of the party which, In onr country,
so belies and prostitute that name. It certaiuly,
1b not devoted to the great fundamental princi
ples of democracy as laid down by Jefferson
In the Declaration of Independence. You c:n
scarcely (Travel a sham Democrat ol the present
day worse than by quoting to him those inmci'
tal word, "We hold these truths to be self
evident, that all men are created equal." etc.
His democracy is built upon a very different
foundation from that. Said a onoe prominent
Democratic officeholder, in speaking ol tlm
statement oi Jbffebson's, "It i a self-evident
lie." The principles of the so-called Damocratic
arty are really the principles of aristocracy.
It does not believe in the capacity of men (or
self-government, or their equal right of partici
pation in it. Take the Democratic party of this
State, for instance, and it lives, moves, and ha
its being, simply and solely, in a warfare upon
the rights and privileges ot our citizens of A'ri
can descent. This is its great "principle."
Upon this it stakes its existence. It is the only
issue it recognizes from one year's end to an
other, and in every contest, trom the election
of Governor down to that of path matter or
constable. And this is "democracy!"
How can any real Democrat, any man who
truly believes in the capacity ot the people lor
self-firovernment, ally himself with such an or
ganization ? Waat dignity or nobleness is there
in a contest where you must appeal constantly
to all the baser prejudices and passions of the
human heart? What elevation of soul can pos
sess any man while he is waelng a continual
warfare against the poor and down-trodden for
the purpose of keeping them down ? Is there
any democracy about that ! We should think that
our Democratic leaders would loathe the work in
which they are engaeed, it Is po repugnant to
all those nobler, and higher sentiments which
deUVht the soul.
It is the glory of the Republican party that
the worst accusation its enemies can bring
against it is, that, if it had the power, ic would
establish the principle of universal political
equality, which is true democracy, throughout
the land. What U this but the confession of
its liberal and humane character? You may
say that 1(3 confidence in humm nature is too
great. That is what aristocracy always says.
Its language is, "We who have power are capa
ble of safely and wisely uing it; all below us
are incapable of doing so' But true demo
cracy says, the people, irrespective of wealth,
rank, or acquirements, are the rightful and only
safe depositories of the power which is to be
exercised over them. The Republican party is
based upon this principle of confidence in the
people. It abominates all privileged classes
all cate all discrimination of right. Equality
simple, pure, impartial, and universal before
the law, is its great principle of government.
Give every man an equal chance in the race of
life. Let each make the most of the faculties
given him by his Creator. These are our doc
trines; and can any man who believes in a
republican form of government refuse to give
them bis hearty and unhesitating consent?
Death of Senator Lane Incidents Con
nected Therewith.
Senator Lame, of Kansas, after lingering for
several days 6lnce the fatal shot from his own
hand, expired yesterday in Leavenworth. The
circumstances attending his suicide are more
j ally narrated in the local papers than we have
seen elsewhere. Senator Lanb had been home
on a short visit to Lawrence, and was taken
seriously ill at St, Lauls on his return. His
symptoms indicated a diseased condition of the
brain, threatening him with paralysis, and, by
the advice of physicians, he gave op the inten
tion of returning to the 8enate during the
present session, and started on his way home
again. Arrived at Leavenworth, he stopped
with a brother-in-law by the name of McCall,
'who resides on the Government farm at Fort
Leavenworth. While here he manifested signs
of aberration of mind, which caused his lriends
some uneasiness. Among other things exhibiting
the direction of his thoughts, he inquired of
his physician what was the easiest method of
putting an end to one's existence. Upon the
day of the fatal occurrence he went
out to ride with his brother-in-law, and, when
upon the point of getting into the car
riage, returned to his room for a moment,
and then reappeared. It is supposed that be
got his pistol during Ins absence. While riding
he conversed pleasantly npon the beauty of the
scenery and other topics. He got out of the
carriage several times, however, upon frivolous
eccuses, and it is supposed intended to commit
the fatal act at each time, but probably wat
restrained by the power ot reasou not yet fully
overcome. At last they came to the gate open
ing out upon the hlehway from the farm. While
Mr. McCall went to open the gate, Senator
Lamb got out of the carriage, stepped back a few
steps, exclaimed, "Good by, Mac !" and, drawing
his pistol, instantly shot himself in the mouth,
the ball pasting upward through the brain aud
coming out nearly in the centre of the top of
the head. He sprang into the air and fell
heavily to the ground. He was Immediately
removed to the house, and medical asslstauce
called. He was unconscious, and the story that
he was dead was telegraphed to the press of the
country. He revived, however, the next day.
and continued to improve until he became able
to converse, to take nourishment, and move his
limbs, which, upon one side, had at first appeared
to be paralyzed. So favorable were his symp
toms that his recovery was deemod quite possl-
fto If not nrobable. After some four or five
days, however, he began to fail, and finally died
vefcterday, at five minutes before twelve o'clock.
Ills remains will, to dav be taken to Lawrence,
where his family resides, for interment. Ue
leaves a widow ana several cnuureu.
TIIK DAILY KVKNIMl TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY,
A Dad Record.
Tun Wotern papers are showing up the record
of Rev. Jrssb B. Ferguson, Secretary of the
"National Union Club," under whose ausploes
the Convention is to be held In this city next
month.
The Cleveland Leader says:
"The Reverend Jbsbk's antecedents are Some
what interesting, and an industrious newspaper
man has taken the trouble to unearth them.
Front the record which he exhibits, we learn
that in 18C1 the ineenuous Fkroitson was a
warm Rebel. In May of that year bestumoed
Kentucky for th3 Confederacy. He deolared
that the rights of a free and generous people
had been invaded, and that the South must
stand up and deiend herself. Here is a pearl
from one of his speeches:
" ' Write it on the front of my brow, and let it form
a tacred erott over my heart t I am a Rebel to tho
Government at Jf asliinuton, and would thank Ileiren
tor tne hour that would tweep it and itt occupantt
into the. tea t for we poaoe, the hope, tie existence
ol oar people require it.'
"And here is another:
'Iho usurpation of Ahkaham Lincoln, In
every uovornmont upon eartn, were our Constitu
tion lt orjruu o law, "fOUMJ llitl.NU HIM HKAD
1 0 THlfi HLOOK, AMD IT WILL, DO IP HKKK,
if cur . eo pie but remember the cost of lira and trea
sure whereby they were born to be free ' "
We think creatures with such a record as this
are hardly qualified to teach loyal men their
duties at tho present crisis.
The Senate Passes the Senatorial Election
Bill.
Sknator Clare's bill regulating the time, place,
and munner of holding Senatorial elections,
pawed the Senate yesterday. We have already
given the provisions of this bill. An unsuccess
ful attempt was ma le to strike out that portion
ol It providing that the voting shall be "openly
by a viva voce vote." We consider this one of
the best provisions of tho bill. No man who
votes In a representative capacity has a right to
cast a secret vote. His constituents have always
a right to know how he fulfils the trust they
have reposed in his hands. On the contrary, a
popular vote by the people In their original
and sovereign capacity ought always to be by
ballot, so that the elector shall enjoy his free
dom of choice to the fullest extent.
It is a little singular that Doolittlk. Cowan.
Davis. Saulbbdry. and the other conservatives
generally, voted against this bill.
News by the Persia."
The Persia passed Sandy Hook to-day with
news up to the 30th ult. Later details of the
battle between the Frisians and Austrian.
near Nachod, on the 27th and 28th ult., make
out a great victory lor the Prussians. They
claim that tho Austrian loes on the field were
between HllOO and 400(1, besides 8000 prisoners.
The Austrians, it is proper to say, however, put
a different face on the motter.
The Hanoverian nrmj ha at last surreadered
at discretion to the Prussians.
The laying of the Atlantic cable was to com
mence on the 10th inst.
i A purely Tory Cabinet will be formed in
bngiuna.
The Convention at Independence Hall.
A cat l, numerously signed by Southern Union
men of most undoubted loyalty, is published.
No one of those who append their names are
open to even a suspicion of treasonable sympa
thy. The Tribune this mornins mentioned it as
follows:
"The call for a conventiou of the loval Union
ists of tho South, at Independence Hall, Phila
delphia, must command general attention.
There is manifestly a feciet conspiracy at the
South to exclude consistent unionists trom
office, and persecute them to the utmost. They
are scattered, overawed, and must organize tor
mutual protection, and to claim the protection
of the nation, fliis rail Is a siirn ot promise.
We trust it will be fully responded to."
Passage ot the Constitutional Amendment
by the Tennessee Senate.
The 8enate of Tennessee has ratified the Con
stitutional amendment. The House would da
so promptly, only that the conservatives and
Rebels have resorted to the revolutionary pro
ceeding of refusing to attend, so that the body
is without a quorum. The recusant members
will probably be arrested or expelled.
Cabinet Resignation.
Postmaster Dennison has resigned. It is
thought that all the other members of the
Cabinet, except perhaps Sbwaed and Welles,
will do so alo. Growing disagreement with the
President on the great issues of the hour is said
to be the cause of this threatened break-up.
Perhaps it is a9 well. The crisis is too momen
tous to admit any longer of doubtful positions.
Election of Senators In Nebraska.
The Nebraska Legislature elected Maor-General
John M. Thayer and F. W. Tipton to the
United States Senate yesterday. Both are Re
publicans.
The Caucus Action. The New York Trpjune
this morning gives in a special despatch what
purports to be the proceedings of the caucus
of Union Congressmen held last night. Mr.
Garfield announced the resignation of Postmaster-General
Dbiison, and predicted a
similar course on the part of three other mem
bers within four days:
"The most exciting event of the caucus was
a debate on the Philadelphia Convention, which
called Mr. Raymond to his feet. In answer to
the inquiries as tt the object of the New York
limes in indorsing the Convention, Mr. Ray
mond said that when he indorsed the call it was
with the distinct understanding that none but
Union men were to participate in the Conven
tion. He had since been persuaded into differ
ent conclusions, and was ready to admit that
he had done wrong. However, he would re
tract his wor.is, and henceforth there would be
no more indorsements of the Philadelphia Con
vention by himself or the Times.
"A resolution was offered that no Union
member of Coneress would countenance the
Philadelphia Convention. The yeas and navs
were demanded and recorded, and the result,
was the unanimous passage of the resolution."
Rbnomination of Hon. Schuyler Colfax.
Speaker Colfax has been unanimously renomina
ted tor Congress from the South Bend (Ind.) Dis
trict. A very able and radical letter from Mr.
Colfax was read before the Convention. He
Bays the issues of the coming campaign can be
reduced to the one question, Wliich sh.aH govern
in the councils of the nation, tcyatty or dis
loyalty? The Democratic Address mourns over the
"seven long months" during which the late Rebel
States have not been allowed representation in
Congress. It don't say anything about the four
long years during which these States voluntarily
refused to take part in the Government of the
United States, and did their utmost to over
throw it by war.
Pabbaoi of tbb National Telegraph Bill.
-The House of Representatives has passed the
Senate bill authorizing the construction of tele
graph lines on all mull routes. It now goes to
the President, who will undoubtedly sta it. '
Death ot John Mason Crier.
Ybsterdat afternoon, after a short lllnoss, John
Mason Grier, one of tho editors ot j The
Bvbninci Telegraph, died at his residence in
ths city. It is not in the cold words of a set
euloglum that we can express oar feeling at the
loss of one whose good qualities of head and
heart we have learned t recoenlr.e by dally
contact. Meeting him constantly, we are well
qu nil fled to speak of his character, and bear
testimony to his unchangexble geniality, en
during friendship, and literary ability. '
Mr. Grier was born near Chester, Pa., in 1832.
His father was the Rev. Dr. Hbikr, and his
brother is the Rev. Mr. Grier, editor of the
Presbyterian. He attended a partial course at
Lafayette College. He commenced the study
ol law in the office of Theodora Cutler. Esq.,
was admitted to the Bar in 1854, and a few years
later was admitted to practise in the United
States Supreme Court. From his earliest years,
however, ho had a fondness for iournuliuni.
While yet a boy he contributed to
various journals ot our city. When bav
lng concluded bis law labors he became con.
nected with the old Register, then under the
management of the late General James B.
Birnet. At the time of Mr. Gbibb's flwt en
trance upon tho HegiMer, that paper was sound
ing the first tocsin in favor of freedom. With
resistless energy it was attackiug the doctrine,
of the pro-frlavery party, and the young journal
ist then imbibed ideas in pohttcs to which he
has ever since stood steadfast. He threw all bis
talents into the scales, and by the vigor of bis
style, and the happy facility with whlth he
changed from grave to gay, be soon achieved a
reputation. But all the ability of its staff couH
not pustaln the Register. It was ten years ahad
of its time. Had it been published In I8G5 in
stead of 185.1, it would have been the foremost
paper of the day. But Justice, unaided by
capital, could'not continue to oppose tyranny,
and the Regwier was discontinued.
Upon its death, Mr. Gbieb became connected
with the Public Ledger; but desirous of im
proving his prospects, he moved to the We9t.
Having purchased a farm near Palmyra, Mo.,
lie settled in t tut then young region, and com
menced the publication of a paper. Adopting
at once firm views in favor of freedom, and
opposing all efforts to force slavery upon the
Territories, it is no wonder that bo became an
object of both fear and hatred to the serai
Rebel population in which he lived.
Upon the breaking out ol' the wiir his
noire was burned, his fields laid waste, and he
subjected to the persecution which was meted
out to Union men. It was by such hardships that
his good health was impaired, and he returned
to our city in 1804. He became at once attached
to the editorial staffof The Evening Telegraph,
which poition he retained until the day of his
death.
Mr. Gbieb was a member of the Masonic fra.
ternity, aud connected with the Palmyra Lodge
of Missouri. He was a reerular attendant on the
Presbyterian church, to which denomination he
bcloneed, aud ' was attached to the church of
the Rev. Dr. Bbadlb. Just previous to his death
be informed a friend that during fifteen years
he had not omitted to attend divine service, on
the Sabbath, more than three or lour times.
He was one of the earliest members of the Press
Club, serving tor some months as a member of
the Board of Directors. Two weeks since,
while too unwell to attpnd, he was elected Coi"
responding Secretary, in spite ot his positive
declination.
He was a man who went through the world
with a constant smile. Cherishing enmity to
none, and living in peace with all, combining
with rare intellectual powers a goodness of
heart and a purity of disposition, his character
was one too seldom met with, and one which to
meet with is to love. During a long friendship
with our deceased brother, we have never
heard him utter one word in disparagement of
another, or cast a slur on any man.
Eager always to detect the good, and passing
by lightly all the dark spots of life, he brought
a genial glow wherever he went, and he was a
a welcome guest at every circle. As an editor
he was conscientious, careful, and able; writing
with equal facility the heaviest leader or the
lighter description. Entertaining firm convic
tions, he never allowed his prejudices to interfere
with his duties, and was as near as we can
imagine a model journalist. Ever courteous,
ever smiling, ever willing to do his whole duty,
firm In his friendship, without guile, and of
most decided talents, we know of none
whose loss we would mourn more sincerely, or
whose death leaves a vacuum in our newspaper
circles more difficult to fill.
