TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 18G7. Why the Democratic Tarty Opposes the ileconstruction of the South. Tub real hostility of the Democratio part to the Congressional scheme of reconstruction arises from the faot that that soheme at once and forever breaks up the old status of South ern unity, by virtue of which the Demooratio part was so long enabled to domineer over the country. In the days before the war, slavery was the bond of union which held the South politically together as a unit. It was a vast moneyed and social interest, which stood as the one great centre around which South ern life revolved, l'olitics had no other mean ing and end to the Southern popli than to preserve, promote, and strengthen this one institution. It was the source of their wealth, the minister to their pride, the support to their luxury in a word, the one great and overshadowing interest of their social life and being. The South, thus arrayed as a unit, chose the Democratic party as its organ through whioh to act. The problem of ruling the country was simple enough. It was a consolidated South, reinforced by a divided North. The Democratic party went into our national elections with almost tho certainty of carrying every Southern State to start with. It only needed one or two Northern States to make the victory complete. But one thing was required of their Northern allies, and that was fealty to the slave power. The result was a political combination of exceeding strength, and one which dominated the country almost without interruption from the close of Joha Quincy Adams' administration to the inaugu ration of Abraham Lincoln. During all this time the slave power really constituted the Democratic party. The Northern wing sup ported the slave power, because the slave power, by its unity, enabled the party to obtain .and hold political control of the country. Van Buren, Fierce, Fillmore, and Buchanan were as subservient to the behests of that power as any slaveholder could have been. When the Rebellion came, it was really a rebellion of the Democratic party. Its leaders were the great leaders of the Demooratio party the men who for years had controlled its nominations, filled its offices, and dictated its policy. The seoret of the support of the Re bellion by our Northern Democrats, commonly called 'Copperheads," was that they saw in the downfall of the slave power the overthrow of that peouliar combination whioh had ena bled the Democratic party to rule the country. The Woods, the Vallandighams, the Sey mours, the Blacks, and that class of politi cians, saw that the logical result of a national triumph must be the destruction of slavery, and with it the downfall of the Demooratio party. They sympathized with the Rebels, therefore, not because they loved the country less, but their party more. The loss of politi cal power was to them a thing to be avoided at all hazards. And this explains why these men were so anxious during the war that slavery should not be touohed. They clung to the hope that somehow peace might be reached and slavery saved. So long as that institution should remain, the bond of South ern unity would hold, and the Democratio party might hope once more for power. We have in this the whole secret of that peculiar phase of our politics during the war which took the expressive name of "Copper headism." It was simply Democratio parti sanship rising above all the demands of patri otism, and vainly striving amid the general upheaval to hold on to the elements of pre vious political power. The personal debasement involved in this position must be ascribed to years of unmanly and degrading subserviency to the slave power, which had well-nigh obli terated in the minds of this class of politicians all perceptions of moral right and all instincts of true patriotism. The laws of the moral universe are inexorable. Men cannot for years' worship fraud and violence and injus tice, and at the same time preserve a love of liberty and a supreme devotion to country. When the war was over the. Democratio party at once sought to establish, but on a new basis, its- old relations. Slavery, it is true, was dead, but the Rebellion itself had proved a bond of Southern union equally powerful. The first step to be taken, there fore, was to restore the rebellious members of the 6lave oligarchy to political power in the South, to make them the State, to the exclu sion of the new elements which the abolition of slavery had Introduced into the body politio, and by thus establishing an aristocracy in every Southern State, to still have one domi nant and controlling interest that would hold the South together in sectional opposition to the rest of the nation. This was the essence of President Johnson's policy. He attempted to create a Rebel aristocracy out of the old slave oligarchy an arlstocraoy which would be held In unity both by the memory of its past triumphs and1 struggles, and by its present exoluelve rights and privileges in the midst of nominal (. republicanism. Each Uate Government, k it was reorganized, was to he placed in the hands of the old Democratio leaders; the Stales -were at once to be ad. xnltted to the Union, an&the old game of poli tics a united anl consoliad South against divided North, V as once more to be inaugu iTud Mr. Jvhnson been allied to pro ceed nacheckod, toreto no doubt th n the coming Presidential election of 18G8, tfoe Democratio party could have counted with a moral certainty upon carrying every one of the late Rebel States for Ha candidate. This was President Johnson's objeot, probaMy hop ing, and not unreasonably, to be that candi date himself. The pretense that he made of being personally in favor of allowing the colored citizens of the South to vote, but that it was a matter exclusively under the control of the old laws of the Rebel States, was a mere blind. He knew very well that they would not be al lowed to voto under those laws, and that the very essenoe of his scheme of reconstruction was that they should not vote. Now the Congressional plan of reoonstruo tion at once lays the axe at the root of this whole scheme of substituting a Rebel aris tocraoy for the old slave oligarchy as the basis of Southern unity, and through it of the re turn of sham Democracy to power. The Con gressional plan reorganizes the South upon the broad basis of popular rights. It recog nizes all the people as constituting the politioa State. It refuses to establish class institutions cr to put power into the hands of an aris tocracy. It says these people are all citizens of the United States, and the reconstructed States must rest upon the broad foundation o f equal rights. Southern unity at once dissolves before this great measure. There is no longer any sectional bond to hold them together. They beoome merged in the great nation o; whioh they form a part. But in this sham Democracy reads its death-warrant. It can no longer count upon a united South. It can no lenger appeal to a sectional and class interest. It must go into each Southern State upon its merits, and put its case before the whole people. And this is the secret of Democratio opposition to the Congressional plan of reconstruction. It is the Iosb of political power, and not a broken Constitution, over whioh they are mourning. It is not the temporary disfranchisement of a few Rebel leaders that afflicts them, but the enfranchisement of the toiling masses. It is not arbitrary power at the South that dis tresses them, but the overthrow of arbitrary power, and the rising of popular power on its ruins. In a word, the Democratic party see i that the downfall of slavery and aristooracy at the South has involved its own inevitable dissolution. The Probable Removal of Sheridan. We have been loth to believe the rumors which have crowded on us so thickly from the capital, that it is the determination of the Pre sident to remove General Sheridan. We knew that Mr. Johnson was capable of acting with a madness which is rare in a sane and sober man. We know that he has habitually dis regarded the expressed will of the people, and that he had sunk so low that he was reckless as to what may follow his further advance in opposition to the popular will. Yet we could not bring ourselves to believe that he would take this last step one which he must know would be the crowning shame of all the infamy which has been the policy of his administra tion. But the different sources from which the rumor comes, and the different shapes it has assumed, leave but little doubt in our minds that the order for the removal is actu ally prepared, and will be issued before the end of the week. There seems to be more than the usual amount of method in this phase of the Presi dential madness. Sheridan is to be removed, but in order that the storm of indignation shall be broken, General G. H. Thomas is to take charge of the Department of Louisiana. It is the same trick over again as was attempted on the Secretary of War. A popular man is sub stituted for the one removed, and thus the indignation partially escaped. But it will not deceive the people of the North. Thomas is a good man, a loyal and true man, and one who would not consent to do the Presidential bidding in opposition to the law. But Thomas' place is in Tennessee and Sheridan's is in Loui siana. The removal of Sheridan is an insult to the spirit which actuated him in all his conduct, and insults all those who have ap proved his course. As to who is his suocessor matters little, so far as his removal is con cerned. That oomes afterwards. The insult to the people is the same, whoever may suc ceed him. This last Btep will certainly be the straw to break the camel's back, and patience will cease to be a virtue; fer we cannot but apprehend that before the end of the week will probably come the order so feared by the loyal people of the land. The Base-ball Excitement. We have lately heard so little of the base ball excitement, that we had hoped that the dissipation caused by that game had at last died out; but it seems that it has been a smouldering fire, which has now burst forth. The Athletic, of Philadelphia, has gone to New York, to play against a number of the lead ing clubs there for the championship of America. The first day's match with the Union, of Morrisania, resulted in the success of the Philadelphia Club. We are heartily glad that such is the issue, as we have our local pride, and desire to Bee our fellow-citizens triumph; at the same time, we do not feel enthusiastio on the subject of games for championship, whioh only engender ill-feeling, give oocasion for gambling, and cause a vast loss of time and expenditure of money, with out any return either to the physique or morale of those engaged. A friendly game with neighbors, without going hundreds of miles and spending hundreds of dollars, would be equally benefiolal and much more sensible.

From this time the frlenda of Hurratt claim Hint he never appeared with the conspirators, hut left for Ulohmond, where he received aKpeclal commission from HieHebel (iovernmi nt to go to Canada, tbence to Eltntra, '. Y, This commission related lo the condi tion and treatment of Rebel prisoners in the hands of this Government, and came from Jef ferson Davis, through one of bis subordinate ofllcials Oeneral K. C.

Correspondence of the British Adiertiter. Bar Karuor, Mount Dksert, Me., August 15. The Jaffa colony, about whioh so much hue been said in the papers during the past year, originated In this section. Twenty-three of tbe ill-starred colony returned a few days since, having been assisted to the gtate by the chari ties ot managers of steamship and oacket lines. Home of these persons tell hard stories of Adams, the leader. They look upon him as an lm poster and swindler of the deepest dye. Had it not been for the American Consul In Jaffa, tbe colony wouli have starved to death for tbe wautof means, Adams having from the start managed to beoome the custodian or tbe funds. - Appearances would In dicate that tbe followers of Adams have become sadly demoralized. Although rejoiced lo a.'ala tread the soil of their native heutb, they find themselves without cash or property, having invested and lost their all in tbe visionary scheme of Adams. They left their homes In good circumstances, and were all or nearly all professing Christians of the Baptist or Metho dlsl persuasion. Many of them now return un done, enierlalning the faith ot the infidel. After months of untold suffering, the veil is re moved, and Adams, lustead of being inspired of God to raise up a "new nation" beneath tbe shadow of Jerusalem, was only a tool in the hands of Brlgbam Young to establish and propagate Mormonism. The Christian world Is thankful for the failure of the Jaffa soheme. SPECIAL NOTICES. gggp NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING. JOY -SL? coK & CO..

J L. Q, C. Wishaht, M. D. Dear Bin In consideration of the great benefit ray child derived from the use of your "Worm Sugar Drops," I deem it my duty to give you tala testimonial, feeling that I will be doing but aa act of justlccto you as well as to the public For about three months prior to June V, 1807, my child, who Is In bis sixth year, had been a great portion of the time quite unwell, and latterly we could perceive that be was gra dually losing flesh and wasting away, so tbat be was but a skeleton of bis former self. Fears were entertained by myself and wife tbat he would never regain his former health. His disposition, which formerly was very good, was now much changed. He was restless, orosa, and fretful, and was much given to suddenly starling, crying out, and gnashing bis teeth wbile asleep. His appetite was very Irregular Indeed; at times be would eat voraciously, which appeared to relieve him for tbe time being; and tben there were times when be wouldn't eat scarcely anything. lie would occasionally be taken very sick at the stomach, whioh was usually followed by a severe fit of yomltlntr, A greater portion of this time he was under medical treatment, I having em ployed several of the best and most eminent physicians in this city, which availed nothing. I also tried a number of Vermifuges and Worm Confections, thinking tbat be might possibly be afflicted with worms, all of whioh did no good. On Sunday morning, June 9, 1867, he was taken violently sick at tbe stomaoh, whioh, as usual, waa soon followed by a severe fit of vomiting and a constant disposition of the bowels to act, but with no success. Becoming alarmed, I Immediately called upon Dr. O. W. Vaugbn (druggist;, corner of Richmond and Bhackamazon streets, and, after explaining ta blm the child's symptoms, he remarked that, 1b his opinion, the child bad Worms, and ad vised me to purchase a box of Dr. Wlshart'a Worm Sugar Drops, which I accordingly did, and the result that followed after administering them waa truly wonderful, in the extreme, and will furnish a theme for naturalists and the medical faoulty to Investigate aud discuss for some time to come, Tbe box contained (24) twenty-four Sugar Drops, and upon examination I ascertained tbat they were free from the unpleasant taste and smell that almost all of the worm prepara tions now in general use possess. I gave blm (4) four of the Sugar Drops about an hour before eaoh meal on Sunday aud Monday, June 9 and 10 inclusive. On Tuesday evening, June 11, the child with much difficulty passed an enormoua Worm (14) fourteen inobes in length, and about as thick as the first or Index finger of a grown person, and still larger la the centre. Upon, examining tbe monster, and holding It up to tbe gas-light, I noticed that Its stomach waa covered with a thin and almost transparent skin for the space of (4) four or (5) five Inches, exposing to my view a mass of what appeared to be Worms struggling and working among each other ! My wife out open the Worm, and, strange and mysterious as it may appear, she look therefrom (14) fourteen living Worms f One of the number was a genuine bona fide Tapeworm, ats) when abstracted from Its living tomb was colled up in a singular manner. With muoti difficulty we succeeded In straightening It out, and found tbat It was (15) fifteen inches 1a length, and tbat it was flat and narrow, and contained a number of Joints. .The remaining (18) thirteen were the ordinary Round or Stomach Worms. There Is not a shadow of doubt in my mind that if the monster Worm and Its contents bad remained in my child's stomaoh a suffloient length of time to attain 'a greater degree ef perfeotlon, It certainly would bave carried blm to a premature grave. I bad almost given up the last hope when I, was providentially di rected to use your great preparation Dr Wlsbart's Worm Sugar Drops.
