The Debt and the Democracy.
Thi Demooratio part la making desperate
effort to excite popular dlsoontent In regard
to the magnitude of the public debt. It la a
ufMent answer to these appeals to reply that
the Demooratio Rebellion created the debt,
and that the war was prolonged and the debt
greatly inoreased by Copperhead opposition to
a rigorous prosecution of hostilities. Every
dollar of the national burden tends to swell the
enormity of the offense direotly chargeable
upon the present supporters of Seymour and
Blair. The radioal Demooracy of the Pome
roy 8ohool are the only true logicians of that
party. They advocate open and undisguised
repudiation, for they Justly fear that
while the people are paying the price of na
tional existence, they will not cease to remem
ber with Indignation the true authors of the
prerailing finanolal evils. It is the height of
folly for those who placed this load upon the
shoulders of the people to seek to win their
votes by magnifying the extent and pressure
Of the debt. They virtually say to a wronged
and outraged peaple "We have inflicted upon
yon untold miseries in the past, and imposed
upon you intolerable present and future bur
dens, and you should thereore entrust us with
the control of publio affairs."
The aotual cost of military and naval expe
ditions, from 1861 to 1868, inolusive, was, for
the War Department $3,175,150,880 54, and
for the Navy Department $426,783,699 92; a
total of $3, 601,934,589 76. The ordinary mili
tary and naval expenditures, previous to 1861t
were $28,000,000 per annum, or, during a
period of eight years, $224,000,000. Deduct
ing this sum from the amount the nation was
compelled to expend from 1861 to 1868, the
cost of or ashing the Rebellion is fixed at $3,377,'
934,589-75. With a few notable exceptions,
the men who presented to the nation the
dread alternative of incurring this enormous
expenditure, or of stiking the United States
from the list of nations, are now the active
leaders of the Demooratio party. Their "yell' '
seoured Seymour's nomination, their advo
cacy of Blair was the undoubted cause of his
selection as the Demooratio Vice-President
candidate; they dictated the Demooratio plat
form, and they would wield over any Demo
cratic National Administration as powerful an
influence as they exercised over the Confede
rate Government of Richmond. In all the
annals of political canvassing there is nothing
equal to the hardihood displayed in the at
tempt to win favor and power for the traitorous
authors of the debt by misrepresentations of
its magnitude.
Heavy as the debt is, however, no batter
proof of the ability of the people to grapple
with it and to maintain the national credit
unimpaired need be given than a statement of
the Bums already devoted to this purpose. Of
the extra expenses incurred by the war nearly
$1,600,000,000 have already been paid iu prin
cipal and interest and bounties, notwithstand
ing repeated reductions of taxation, and the
frauds upon the revenue which have been
perpetrated mainly by a Demooratio whisky
ring.
Few Fablic Meetings.
Fbok reliable souroes we are able to aun ouuoe
that the general programme of the approaohing
campaign on the part of the Republican of
Philadelphia does not inolude the holding of
many of the immense mass meetings whloh
have of late years so deoidedly aroused th en
thusiasm of the faithful, but utterly failed to
make converts from the opposition. We are
glad that they will be dispensed with. There
are other and far more effective ways of work
ing than by the holding of monster demon
strations, with six stands and as many bands
of music It is not by this means that
rotes are made or frauds deteoted.
We can see in them, however, muoh
good so much that we hope that there
will not be a total omission of them all. The
truth is that the city of Philadelphia has 10,000
majority in favor of the Republican party, 1
the vote oan only be brought oat. Then while
it is a duty to seek converts, it is also a duty to
impress those we have with the important
of taking an active part in the campaign. The
latter result is seoured by these meetings. The
people are aroused into enthusiasm when they
see squares upon squares of human beings,
all animated, by one impulse, all coinoiding in
the Bame thought, and acting for the same
end. Thus the meetings do good. If there
were to be a few such, they oould not fail to en
hance the Republioan triumph. But if instead
of these, the thousands of dollars required it
spent in organizing, in detecting anticipated
frauds, and getting the name of every friend
and seeing that be votes on the day of eleotion,
the result would be a muoh larger and general
awakening than if a like sum be expended in
meetings. The Democraoy know this, and
taught us a leBson by their wisdom last
fall. Having learned by sad experienoe, we
do not doubt but that the managers will act
with discretion, and much work and great good
.be done.

Louis Napoleon.
Tub aphoristic, "Nothing suooeeds so well a?
success," is unfortunately more distinguished
for truth than freedom from alliterative eiror.
Had Louis Napoleon failed on the 2d of De
cember, 1857, as he had previously failed in
hia attempts at Strasburg and Bolougne, we
should not have to apply the miserable saying
to him the Great Man t the saviour of Franoet
the Regenerator of Europe t and much more
of this undisoriminating admiration whloh we
are every day obliged to listen to. We have
often thought that if the full history of Louis
Napoleon's coup d'etat were known as it should
be, many who indulge in these expressions of
admiration would not be so lavish of their
praiees. Everybody has read of the convul
sion occasioned by the son of the late General
Cavlgnao refusing to aooept a testimonial for
good scholarship under the eye and auspices
of the little French Imperial Prinoe. How
strong and deep-rooted must his Majesty's
Government be I What a deep hold must it
have on the affections of the Frenoh people
when so slight a oause can oooasion so great
an exoitement 1 But many will reason without
going to facts.
There is no event in history so well known
as the history of Louis Napoleon's coup d'etat.
Without going into a full htstory of his life
we should like to present to our readers a
brief summary of that event. Unlike history
generally, instead of there being a scarcity of
materials, we have an abundance. We have
Bonapartlst aooounts, royalists, moderate re
publicans, radioal republican aooeunts by
people of all shades of opinions Garnier de
Cassignao for the Bonaparlists, Viotor Hugo
for the extreme democrats, despatches in the
Moniteur by Magnan and others Xavier Dar
rieu, Bulletin Francaise, La Yerite, Reoueil
d'Aotes Offioielles. But the authority to which
we attach the most importance is the testi
mony f a British officer. This gentleman
was on a visit to Paris at the time; he was not
connected with any of the parties, was merely
there as an involuntary spectator. He was
not even acquainted, as far as we are aware,
with any of the actors in the soene, and whose
statement we are bound to think la impartial
and correct. This officer, Captain Jesse, in
his letter to the London Times, thus speaks
of what he witnessed. After telling that
he was on the balcony of the house at whloh
he was lodging, he suddenly heard a firing of
musketry, believing at first that it was a salute,
never dreaming that soldiers were firing ball
cartridges at men, women, and children. We
will'let him tell part in his own words:
The windows were crowded with people, prin
cipally wotueu, tradesmen, ssrvante, cQUUrtm,
or, like orselves, the occupants of apartments.
Suddenly, as I was latently looking wltn my
glass at the troops In the distance eastward, a
lew musket buou were 11 red ou tne head of the
column, which consisted of about 8000 men.
In a few minutes It spread, and after Hanging
a little, orae down the tiuulevard In a waving
sheet of name. Ho regular, however, was the
Are, that at tlrst I thought it was aue dejoie
for some barricade taken In advanoe, or to sig
nal their position to some other division; aad
It was not till It came within fifty yards of me
that I recognized the saarp. ringing- report of
ball cartridge; but eveu then I could scarcely
believe the evidence of my own ears; for as to my
eyes, J coula discover no enemy to fire at, and I
continued loosing at the men uutll the com
pany below me were actually raising their Are
Jocks, and one vagabond, sharper tnun the rest,
a mere lad without whiskers or moustache,
had covered me. In an lactam I dashed my
wife, wno hud Just stepped out against the pier
between the windows, when asuot struok the
celling immediately over our heads, and
covered us with dust and broken plaster. In
a second after, I placed her upon the floor, and
In another volley came against the whole front
of the bouse, the baloony, and tne windows;
one btiot broke the mirror over the chimney
piece; another the shade of the clock; every
pane of glass but one was smashed; theourtalns
and window frames out: tne room, in short. was
riddled. What made the fire at the house the more
deadly was, that even after It bad begun at the
eastern end of the Boulevard Montmarre, people
standi eg at the baloonleaand windows oould
not believe that the troops were really firing
in at tLe windows with ball cartridge, and they
remained In the front rooms, and even con
tinued standing at the windows until a volley
came clashing In. At one of the windows
tneie stood a Itusslan noble with his sister at
his side; suddenly they received the fire of the
soldiery, and both of them were wounded with
musket abots.
This description although episodical, is con
clusive as to the dreadful means resorted to
by Louis Napoleon. We intend to collate
what must be considered as the first or pre
liminary movement, oommenoiug with the
removal of Chargarnier as oommander of the
garrison of Paris, followed by the proceedings
of the National Legislative Assembly, and
hope to resume it an early day.
On the Tendency of the Age.
Mart thoughtful observers in Europe and this
oountry think they disoern faint glimmerings
of a oomlng revolution, not they they would look
for a revolution like the old Frenoh explosion,
but a revolution in the political and religious
world a revolution in men's minds against
authority that the tendenoy of the old Gov
ernments of Europe is to Demooraoy they
think is beooming more apparent every year;
coupled with this is a revolt against priestly
rule. Some of the staunohest adherents of
that rule are fain to admit this. Even M. de
Montalembert, the eloquent Cathollo writer,
who does not wish to see that ohange, it is
evident from some of his late writings, is pre
pared to look for it. The bold stand taken
by the Austrian Minister against the Pope',
reoent letter, the deoline of priestly influence
in other countries especially in France the
rupture in the Churoh of England, caused by
Ritualism; if we view these risings against
secular and priestly influence, it would seem
that some great ohange was oertalnly about to
take place. Nor is it alone oonflned to the
two sects above named; in every seot there is
a feverish effervescence existing, as was well
observed by a writer on Gothlo arohl
teoture whloh was lately republished in
this journal, the spirit which impelled
the ereotlon of such edifices is dead
and, aooording to the writer's opinion, will
never i ln be revived. We may say in aldl
tlon, that the day for crusades is over. Neither
Peter the hermit, nor Simon de Montford,
could again awaken the enthusiasm neoessary
for such enterprises in our time. We might
almost as well look for a restoration of the
inquisition. Some again see in all this what
they believe to be a change for the better.
They say that with this revolt against autho
rity, comes a revolt against bigotry and super
stition. Then again there are others who see
with this deoline of authority a tendenoy to
the other extreme; that is to Bay, that with
the weakening of all former beliefs, there will
eventually come a period of decided unbelief;
that with the attempt to demolish a few idols,
the entire superstructure will be so terribly
shaken, if not destroyed, that a materialistic
pantheism may be set up In its stead.
To us the tendenoy of the politioal system
seems more clear than the religious; for reli
gious fermentations have been constantly
taking place at nearly all periods of the world's
history; and so have politioal, some may say,
also; but the signs of a demooratio tendenoy we
think more visible than the other. In corro
boration of this we could point to the condi
tion of England, Prussia, and Franoe. We
may be deoeived in the signs, but we think
not to the Bame extent as to the indications in
the religious world. We think the latter far
more intrioate in their seoret workings than
is exhibited in the open expressions for a
change of material condition every day mani
fested to the world in the countries which we
have particularly mentioned.
Whatever tha future may bring forth (re
turning to the religious branch of the subjeot)
we are aware of what has been accomplished;
we know that only a few years ago a promi
nent member of the British Cabinet, existing
at the time of the Crimean war, had publioly
declared that the dissenters were no Chris
tians. We further know what disabilities
have been removed from dissenters, Catholios,
Jews, and Quakers; we know positively that
reforms in this partioular have been made
in other countries, too, than England. Is the
tumult existing in the minds of men widely to
produce good or bad fruit ? Will the present
or future generations be benefited or injured
by the bubblea on the surfaoe ? On another
oooasion we may take a historical retrospective
view of events whioh may have caused this
condition of things.
Wb have long been aocustomed to an ever
varying iteration of the allegation that the
negro, could not be elevated above his old in
ferior condition; that by oanon fixed from all
eternity he was and must ever be fe abject to
the white race; that religion and nature had
established the rule, and the slave oode had
only reaffirmed the physical, psychological,
moral, and mental superiority of the sons of
Japhet in a praotioal form for the convenience
of sooiety. But instead of its being impos
sible, or even diffioult to raise the negro into
equality with his master, it now appears to
be easy to make him superior. The address
from the Demooratio State Committee of Penn
sylvania asserts that now the white man in
the South is inferior to the negro, and asks
the reason why. We did not know that it was
so, but if the Democrats say so we must be
lieve it they ought to know I Their rebel
white friends are down there, and they have
been long and intimately acquainted with
them. If a Democrat knows and feels that he
is the inferior of the negro, just fresh from the
rioe-Bwamps and the oane-brake, the moment
that negro becomes entitled to a vote, we may
be sorry for him, but we cannot help it. Inner
consciousness must be the test, and the only test
in such a mattter.
TUE ROSEC&ANS' MISSION.
An Expose of Its Objects and Intended
Kttects, by Oovernor. Ilekeus.
A correspondent, writing from White Sulphur
Sprlugp, Aug. 31, says:
If the following substance of a conversation
that occurred at the portico of the hotel here
between General Itosecr&DS and Governor
Pickens, of South Carolina, very shortly alter
the arrival of the former and before the cor
respondence was consummated, is of importance,
1 give it for what It Is worth. Certain it is that
the greatest importance is attached to the views
of Pickens, and they may be regarded as in
connection with this very mysterious mission.
In answer to General Hosecraas, General
Pickens said that be thought the General's
objects were wise and patriotic; that if Seymour
aud Blair were eleoted by a decided majority It
would add much to the restoration ot sincere
peace, And that the negroes would be more
justly protected in all their rights by mutual
interest between the races, capital ani labor
adjusting more properly their relations than
could be done by any regular force, and kind
feelings would soon be entirely restored if those
who were interested in offices and bad designing
men who wanted to use the negroe for their
own vile purposes were removed or not sus
tained by the Freedmen's Bureau. At least,
paid the Governor, such is the case in South
Carolina.
Unlets these men were removed, and the un
principled governments created by thew were
checked and destroyed, and that very soon, they
would destroy all confidence in the future and
derange all peaceable organization of labor and
productive industry. The consequence would
be there would in a very few years be compara
tively none of those productions from the South
which ertered so largely into our exports and
aided in adjusting the balauce of trade so as to
prevent heavy shipments of specie. Without
these exports the Government banks could not
sustain them solves and publio bondholders
would be deeply Injured in the depresslou
of all foreign credit aud publio funds. In fact
toe public debt could not be paid without the
establishment of real peace and just law In (be
South, Xbe pa-is of perruaueut peace was Just
law widely administered. A system that re
quired bayonets to support it was always dan
gerous in any oountry educated and trained up
under free Institutions. All society iu the South
was now as AO inverted cone with the apex
down and base up, and such a system could
not stand even propped up by bayonet, was
death 1o all enterprise and industry, and would
finally end in the destruction of all credit, and
we would see Government bonds burnt,
as the French assiguats were burnt in
Paris. Therelore the election of con
servative men was a step towards the res
toration of law and towards the security of
publio crodit. It would be a great polot
gained In the preservation of the Government,
aud a check against the tendency of things
towards a change from a republio Into an em
pire. In Europe they appeal to revolution and
arms lor settlement and adjustment of funda
mental systems; here our theory is to appeal to
discussions and conventions. Let that wisdom
be appealed to now. The old articles of con
federation failed and run ont. The ContHa
tlon thou ran in career and ended in a Wrlbl
war. Thederp wounds of that war, North as
well as South, can never be permanentlv
healed over In aflection and new enthusiasm
but by iuvoking thn sovereignty ! all the
Si step, in convention assembled, aid moulding
ovtr the organic law to Bolt th chanae
that have taken place and fair'y and frankly
to acknowledse RTeat events. Under this
barn and covenant ibns renewed this
people will take a new start in the career ot
pieattiess and empire, and the Union thus re
moulded and remodelled may last for ever.
Without some such appeal to the great nitlonal
sovereignty that or finally made the Union
there will be waste and dsoeer, and It may re
quire more power to keep us permanently to
fretber thau is compatible wt'h a free govern
ment. Let the ureal State of New York nd
h r statesman (Mr. Sevmour) take the lead in
tbis. ai:d while she will be the Vlrcltra of tbe
reinvlgorated Unlnn he will be tbe Ma)lon ot a
brighter and a prand r system of jrovemment.
But the triumph of the Democratic party in the
next election will be a great step trained in tbe
proaregR of law and justice; while to cempnt ths
Union and make it perpetual, the invocation of
all the Slates In convention Is essential to give
new life and regeneration to the whole system.
Accident to General Sherman's Daughter.
A correspondent of tne Chicago Journal, at
Cheyenne, August 26, gives the following ac
count of the accident to General Sherman's
daughter:
Generals Sherman and ausrur parsed np on
Punday evening to Fort 8aunder, on a trip to
Idaho Springs, Colorado. General Sheimau
brought with him two of bis children, a youtu
Sri of fourteen or fifteen years, and a son. On
onday the little girl to k a bor.-cbaca rido,
escorted by Lieutenant Male, or tne Twentieth
Infantry. The bore was thought unsafe, bat
a lady who was skilled in horsemanship bad
rode bim, and the party left iu high spirits to
explore the beautiful scenes near the
Black Hills. Mot long; afier both hor-es
came into tbe Fort r'.derle-s. The
General, with Generals Gibbons and Poller,
being ont huntlog in an ambulance, were soon
apprised of the circumstance, and started in
pursuit of the riders. About a mile or so out
tbey found the gtrl lyinir msenetole and Lieu
tenant Male supporting her head. The hone
bad run away, aud the girl lumped off, striking
on her head and hands. Tne Lieutenant dis
mounted to succor her as he best could. She
was conveved in tbe ambulance to the p st, and
medical aid was soon at hand. I regret to say
that at three in the afternoon she was still in
sensible when my informant, left, and I have no
tidings since. The parly came out to seek
health and recreation, but we are sorry for tbe
General that it may possibly pr jve tbe reverse
of his good intentions. Uls uniform urbanltv of
manners and careful interest In all our a (fairs
has endeared him to the army beyond measure.
