The Democratic party have laade ft discov
ery in login. Thvy liBv invfutrtda now moile
of political argniuent. Thev have discovered
that Lad (.pelting U a weaim of oouviotiou, if
not of grace. Molertelv bad hphIIiok is un
derstood to have a aiuiricil elfeut. Very bad
Spelling bas nil tbe lorcH of tbe severest in
vective. During the war it was discovered
tbat active sympathy with the Rebellion was
entirely patriotic aud proper wheu styled and
Bplled "zeal in the cauwe." But au equally
earnest devotion to the nalvaUon of the Union
Wan found to become a subject of "infinite jest"
When rendered "zeel-iu-the-kaVd." The desire
that all men should be free, the genuine love.
Of freedom not only for ouraelvea but for
others, which bas animated the noblest minds'
of all ages, became simply ridiculous by the
addition of inverted commas and the omission
of an "c." Freedom was something that
Washington, Kosciusko, Lafayette, and Gari
baldi fought for. How wide the contrast between
these noble spirits, and John Brown, Abraham
Lincoln, and the Union armies, who ouly
fought ior "fredum." The Declaration of In
dependence was cherished as the great charter
of equal rights for all men. Uut it became
very absurd when its leading theme was spelled
"ekal rites." 1'he efleot of inverted commas
to demolish the most sacred ideas was im
mense. If there are any two words in the lan
guage which it would seem should be exempt
from pollution, they are God aud humanity.
Jut it was only necessary to throw these words
between quotation marks to render thein
cdions, and to deprive them of all status in
respectable society.
One would think that after the sup
pression of the Rebellion, and when even the
liebela themselves profess to be truly loyal
there would be no opprobrium in having been
loyal during the war. Not bo. The new-born
and reluctant acquiescence of the defeated
Kelel is worthy of all acceptation, because
Sp-lled "truly loyal." 15m the contempt
With which those who claim to be truly loyal
Bow, regaid thone who have never been other
wise, finds severe expression in branding the
latter with the orthographic stigma "trooly
loil." They take a complacent delight iu
burling this sharp javelin at those who fought
and sustained the war for the Union, as if this
nnquestionably bad t-pelliug would bear with
it the seeds of contagious disease, and leave
the soldiers and citizens on the Union side of
the late contest parching with fevers and pitted
With small-pox.
Probably General Grant, when he closed hi3
letter accepting the unanimous nomination of
the Republican party for the Presidency with
the patriotic) aspiration, "Let us have peace,"
bad no thought how easily those who during
the war were for peace, aud since the peace
are for war, might turn his simple and noble
Erayer into ridicule by spelling it, "Lesh nsh
ab peae.li." Yet so it is. In ail its palpable
ridiculousness, the prayer of the conqueror of
the Rebellion stands revealed by a little judi
cious and effective misspelling. The hero of
the war is demolished, and proved to be a
mere shoulder-strapped civilian, by simply
quoting his rank thus, "General" Grant, which
proves that he is not General Grant. And, by
Styling Ulysses S. Grant Hiram U. Grant, be
cause be was so styled in his infancy, the en
tire history of the war is wiped out as effectu
ally as Christianity is obliterated by styling
Jesus "a carpenter," or tit. Paul "Saul of
Tarsus."
We congratulate the Democratic party on
the fertility 1' its resources aud the profuu
dity of its arguments as shown in these home
thrusts of orthography. They are unanswer
able. If anybody can show that such a deluge
of inverted comoas and bad spelling does not
prove that Seymour and Blair ought to be
elected President, let him undertake the diffi
cult task. We shrink from it appalled. We
are not equal to it.
The Cousin ul ioiuil Amendment and the
Political Parlies of the Day.
From the N. Y. Heruia.
Article fourteen of the amendments of the
Constitution declares, first section, the equality
of all citizens in their civil rights, aud that
persons of all races aud colors born or natu
ralized in the United States are citizens
thereof and of the State iu which they reside;
Second, that representation in Congress shall
be restricted or extended in proportion as the
right of suffrage may be restricted or enlarged
by the several States; third, that certain
Kebels shall be disfranchised and disabled from
bolding certain civil offices, Mate and national,
until absolved by a two-thirds vote ot each
House of Cotgress; fourth, that the validity
Of the national debt, pensions, aud bounties
Shall not be questioned, aud that all Iltbel
debts and claims for slaves shall be held illegal
and void; fifth, that Congress shall have
power, by appropriate legislation, to enforce
these provisions. This article the Secretary
Of State has proclaimed as duly ratified by
"more than three fourths oi the States," and
that, therefore, it is "valid to all intents aud
purposes as part of the Constitution of the
United States."
Here, then, we have a defiuite settlement of
the questions of civil rights, suffrage, disfran
chisement, aud civil disabilities, the national
debt, and all Rebel debts aud claims for slaves
a settlement which, iu.the State elections of
18G(i, was overwLeliuiugly approved by the
people from ocean to oceau. But how stand
the political parties of 1808 upon this settle
ment? It is the work of the Republican party,
and, although it opens the door for the re
moval of the Congressional policy of universal
Jiegro suffrage enforced upon the Rebel States
in their reconstruction aud restoration, even
Sumner was an active instrument in securing
this ratification. He and his fellow radicals of
the universal fanatiital negro suffrage school
doubtless believe that whatever party may
come henceforth uppermost in any of the
southern Slates it will give the negroes the
largest suffrage in order to have the largest
possible representation in Congress and iu the
Electoral College, which elerts the Presilnnt
and Vice President of the United States. The
Republicans, then, radical fauatios, and wo
men's rights men, and all, will adhere to this
amendment, although it limits the safrage
to males above the age of twenty-one years,
and restores to the States respectively the right
to establish a universal or qualified sull'rage
on the basis of property, education, race or
color.
The administration, next, with Mr. Seward's
proclamation of this ameudmeut, is boiuui by
ft; for it is an official act of a recognized olli.)Hr
of the administration. But what of the Demo
crats party f According to its Tammany
platform the Southern reconstruction acts of
Congress are "unconstitutional, revolutionary
and void." Against the universal negro sur
rage experiment of the Republicaus there
was a Democratic Legislature elected in Onto
In 18G7, and also in h'ew Jersey, and the first
jegular proceeding of each of these Legist
ures was the indignant repeal of the ratifica
ion of this Constitutional amendment male
by the Legisla'ares elected in 18G6. Ia the I
caee of New Jersey the revocation was ex- I
pressed in terms of such unqualified wrath
and denunciation that the paper, pronounced
"scandalous and offensive," was refused a read
ing in Congress. Nor have we yet heard the first
syllable from any quarter in the Democratic
camp in recognition of thii amendment. "The
constitution of our fathers" is the campaign
cry of Wade Hampton; and, according to his
own testimony, be had as much to do in the
shaping of the Democratic party's war plat
form of 18(J8 as had Mr. Vallaudigham iu the
buildiDg of its peace platform of lbtJi. Hut if
we are to go back to "the constitution of our
fathers" we must go back to the regime of
Buchanan, aud of slavery and the South
ern slaveholding oligarchy, aud the Fugitive
Slave law. and Southern Lynch law, aud the
Dred Scott decision that "negroes have no
rights which white men are bound to respeot."
The Democrat io Tammany platform recognizes
the abolition of slavery by "the voluntary action
of the States concerned. This would imply that
by their "voluntary action" they may re-establish
slavery. The simple truth is, however,
that slavery was abolished in the slave States
by compulsion, by war, by the bayonet, and
the result leaves nothing to the "voluntary
action" of any State against the sovereign au
thority of the United States.
Is the war approved as a sucoess by the
people of all the States participating in the
election of 1804, except New Jersey, Delaware,
and Kentucky to be pronouueed by the peo-
rle in lbGS as a failure ? The position of the
teniocratie party and its restored Southern
leaders, including Henry A. Wise, the Rhetts,
Wade Hampton, Toombs, Cobb, Stephens,
SemmeB and Forrest, against Grant, Sherman,
Thomas, Sheridan and Admiral Farragut, and
against the results of the war, Southern recon
struction, and this Constitutional amendment,
means the "Union as it was" before the war
and State sovereignty, and that the "little un
pleasantness" of the Rebellion and its conse
quences Bhall be wiped out, including the
national debt and faith, and that the old
Southern oligarchy, like the Bourbons by the
Holy Alliance or the Stuarts after Cromwell,
shall be restored again to power. Suoh is the
attitude of Mr. Seymour as the candidate for
the Presidential succession against General
Grnt, the conqueror of the Rebellion. In
other words, tbe campaign has assumed the
sharply defined lines of an appeal from the
results of the battle-fields of 1SG1, 18G2, 18G3,
18G4, and 1805, to the ballot-box for a judg
ment between the cause represented in battle
by General Giant and the cause still upheld
with the "stars and bars" by General Wade
Hampton.
Wnr Democrats and Conservative republi
cansTheir Position in the Cauvais.
From the N. Y. Timet.
It is admitted that the Democratic party can
have no chance fn the campaign unless all
shades of opinion are merged in support of the
nomination. The more eaudid of the organs
have conceded the necessity of obtaining the
help of conservative Republicans; aud all sec
tions have acknowledged the hopelessness of a
contest in which intestine divisions shall be
perpetuated. War Democrats must unite
with Copperheads to secure even a glimpse of
victory.
At least one of these contingent sources of
strength nlnsad hv Nw York Conven
tion. The adoption of a platform which unset
tles the results of the war and reopens the
whole question of reconstruction, and the
triumph of the extreme element in the selec
tion of Seymour and Blair, dispelled whatever
doubts remained in the minds of dissatisfied
Republicans. A moderate, conciliatory and
honest course on the part of the Convention
might have awakened in them some hesitancy
as to their duty in the election. But there
could be none when the Convention adopted
the views of Rebels and copperheads as to re
construction, and ot repudiators as to finance.
From that moment it became clear that no
parley could be held with the Democracy.
Dirapproval of the temper or policy of Con
gress became as nothing compared with the
disgust awakened by the action of the Demo
cratic Convention.
And what is the position of the War Demo
crats? The Soldiers' Convention spoke for
some of them, in a manner that indicated a
strong desire to resume old party affiliations.
A few of them have since declared their adhe
sion to Seymour and Blair and the platform
on which they stand. Ihe great majority,
however, make no secret of their aversion to
both. The received the results of the Conven
tion with au indifference which is rapidly
changing to hostility. They regarded bey
incur as an enemy of the Government while
the war lasted, and are unwilling to iutrust
him with power at a period hardly less critical.
Blair's letter opened to them visions of turbu
lence and bloodshed, and they coald have no
faith in the official conduct of a man who, to
obtain a nomination, committed himself to
views at variance with order and law. Uenoe
tbe remarkable lack of enthusiasm which
attended the adoption of the Democratic
ticket. It extinguished hopes, and created a
conviction fatal to confidence in the patriotism
ana statesmanship ot the party.
This conviction must have been diffused
aud strengthened by utterances and incidents
in tbe couth since the nomination. The po
tency of Copperheadism in the Conrention
uiitlit have admitted of explanation. But the
reappearance of Rebel leaders on the Southern
stage, their bold avowal of the ulterior designs
with which they have rejoined the Democracy,
tbe hostility they proclaim to national autho
riy, aud the arrogant disloyal temper which
animates their plans are considerations
which must iulluence every Northern Demo
crat, who, during the Rebellion sustained the
cause of the Union.
While, then, Union Democrats may bere
aud there be found whobe dislike of certain
Republican measures has driven them into
the arms of Seymour and his friends, it is safe
to conclude that the great majority of them
will bold no fellowship with a party whose
most notable exponent and advocate has thus
far been Wade Hampton. They cau have
nothing to do with a party which at the North
relies upon repudiation, aud in the South is
championed by the bitterest and most relent
less of the Rebels. To suppose otherwise
were to impute to them a willingness to im-p-ril
the Union they once helped to save, and
to baud back the South to the keeping of its
old masters. It is not possible that soldiers
like Franklin and Hancock can be uealous
supporters of a ticket which has Semmes,
and Toombs, and Forrest, and Vanoe, aud
Wise among its most active supporters. Val
laudigham was a heavy loud to carry; but
when it is proposed to assume the entire crowd
of Rebel leaders, aud to Bend Seymour to the
White House with these men as his advisers,
the thing becomes too gross and impudent to
be tolerated by the war wing of the Democracy.
Its logical and proper place is under the Grant
banner.
Horatio Seymour a Stalesuinu.
From the A. Y. World.
The Cincinnati Commercial makes this con
fession of ignorance, aud sceptical appeal for
information:
"We must repent our call upon Demooratlo
B nee. hers aud newspapers for evidence of Gov
ernor Heymoui'a statesmanship. What has he
Uoue that entitles him to that reputullon? Gov
ernor Beymour bas been In publto life a good

beyond tbe craft, and capoolty ol a mere politi
cian, the people want to know Ik He has cure

Tu re Hucce.Rfnl In obtaining uoinln itlons bv

me. lie is at noine in curious and convention:
be knows how to uronse tbe nation and pre
judices of a mob; It is not known tbat he re
Knros treason ami rebellion against consum ed
authority as punishable crimen; while It Is be
lieved that be prefers pa.- ty to country, and tne
small acts of politics to the loftier alms of
statesmanship. Mtlil, ills Mild ne Is a states
man. If so, where Is the pront ? '
We could perhaps make a more satisfactory
respouse to this call for light, if the Cinoinna.i
Commercial had given its own ideal of what
entitles a public man to be called a statesmau.
A definition which would include Geueral
Grant and exclude Governor Seymour would
be a curiosity in political literature. The tenor
of the Commercial's interrogations implies that
a candidate for President ought to be a states
man, and With respect to the present election
it might be a sufficient reply to simply retort
the questions, and ask for the proofs or Uene
ral Grant's statesmanship. He has no origiual
opinions on public questions, nor capacity to
form any; no steadiness in adhering te the
opinions he bas from time to time borrowed
from others; no eloquence; no ability to make
a great, or even a respectable, figure in a de
liberative assembly; no knowledge of the
politics of foreign countries, and but
a slender and scanty acquaintance with the
history of his own. Iu jurisprudence aud
political economy, those great departments of
inquiry so essential to a well-equippnd states
man, be is not even a novice, not even a tvro;
he has never studied them at all. He gradu
ated at the military school not far from the
foot of his class; while be remained in the
army be was not studious to enlarge the small
stock of knowledge he acquired at West
Point; resigning to avoid a dismissal iu con
sequence of intemperate habits, bis subse
quent occupations as a small farmer in Mis
souri and a tanner at monthly wages in
Illinois, though honest and respectable, were
not a very promising school tor training a
statesman. When the supporters of such a
man question the ripe qualifications of Gov
ernor Seymour, they make themselves ridi
culous. It is quite true tbat Governor Seymour
bas never held office under the Federal Gov
ernment, the Democratic party of this State
not having elected a Senator since Mr. Dick
inson, in lfsSl, nor bad a Cabinet appoiutmeut
Bince Mr. Marcy, in lb53. But Mr. Sey
mour bas made himself as much felt in
national politics out of office as many other
statesmen have in. And this is, perhaps,
the most satisfactory proof of superior ability.
The late John A. Andrew, whom all the Re
publicaus class as a statesman, is another
instance of a man, who, though a mere Gov.
era or of a State, won a national reputation.
He acquired it, as Governor Seymour
bas, by his utterances on great national ques
tions. A man who, by the mere force of his
talents, thus commands the attention of the
nation, is of a higher order than
those who must be lifted upon a pedestal
before they can b heard. We suppose the
Cincinnati Commercial would not dispute that
the late Mr. Liucoln was a statesman; but
what proofs had he given of it previous to his
election to the Presidency ? The Commercial
can point to nothing but his controversy with
Uoopiaaa when they stumped Illinois to
gether for the Senatorship.
hold bis own even tolerably against such a
debater as Douglas must have had a pretty
fair grasp of national questions. What a figure
Grant would make iu snob a grapple with a
statesman 1 Mr. Greeley has many times, in
the 'Jributie, expressed his approval of candi
dates confronting each other ou the stump, as
Douglas and Lincoln did, thinking it au effec
tual bar against the election of tools and noodles
to high offices. Wonder if Mr. Greeley would
like to see the experiment tried between Grant
and Seymour ?
Free government is government by publio
opinion. In free countries statesmen buildup
a great reputation chiefly by the breadth aud
sagacity of their utterances on publio ques
tions. We suppose the Ciuuinnati Commercial
regards John Bright as a statesmau; but Bright
has won his rank precisely as Governor Sey
mour bas won bis, by making the ablest
Speeches of any man in bis country of this de
cade. Mr. Seward was reckoned, eight years
ago, as the first statesman in the Republican
party; the only foundation of bis claim being
bis stump speeches in the Senate and on
the stump. Up to the time he was made Seo
retary of the Treasury, tbe Cincinnati Com
nurcial's fellow-citizen, Governor Chase, bad
nothing else to support his high reputation as
a statesman. Let the Commercial select the six
best speeches of John Bright, or of Mr. Seward,
or of Mr. Chase, and we will match them by six
of Governor Seymour's not inferior to either
collection in any of tbe requsites of statesman
like eloquence, whether it be luminous clear
ness of statement, breadth of view, solidity of
reasoning, sagacity, or fulness of information.
Governor Sevmour has spent his whole life
in the liberal studies and pursuits which be
fit a statesman.
The notion of the Cincinnati Commercial
that Governor Seymour is an adept in man
aging a caucus and in the arts of a small poli
tician, will excite a smile here inNewlork
where be is known. Such petty intrigues are
the resource of au office-seeker; but Gover
nor Seymour has never sought office; offices
have always sought him. He does not belong
to tbe order of men who need office to give
them consideration. The chief advantage of
high office is the opportunities it affords for
influencing public opinion the grand lever by
which the political world is "moved iu free
countries. Mr. Seymour's abilities, eloquence,
and standing give bnu this advantage inde
pendently of publio station. By such a man
the routine duties of office may be reat-ouably
shunned, except when the publio voice de
mands the sacrifice of bis personal ease for the
general good.
