From they. Y. Tribune.
We bare to ehoot go many lies on the wing
around borne tbat we can naj afford to speni
our powder on distant game when it is Terr
large. A Mr. Eden, who ia running against
General Palmer for Governor of Illinola, some
what as a bull wonli run against a locomo
tive, has disoovered that the reveun of the
Government for ' three years, have been
$500,000,000 a year, aud be calls on the Re
publican parly to ' explain what they have
done with the $1,600,000,000 of the people's
money. , The question displays the same
charming modesty which Judas Iscariot might
have shown bad be demanded of the eleven in
what manner of dissipation and deviltry they
bad been squandering the apostolio treasury,
when Judas himself carried the bag. But the
minority apostle did not venture to put a
question which would have plaoed him
eternally on a par with the modern Demo--cracy.
However, as Mr. Eden probably
does not know what the money was paid
for, and as the Chicago Times asserts
that it was "squandered for partisan objects,"
it is well to see what objects the Demojratio
party regard as being of interest only to the
Republicans. During the three years begin
ning July 1, 1805, there were paid out of these
revenues for interest on the public debt an
average of $140,000,000 a year, or for the three
years exactly $418,484,885. Therefrom we
infer that to pay the interest on the publio
debt is a Republican partisan object, in which
Democrats have no lot nor sympathy. They
loaned no money to feed, olothe, and pay our
soldiers; they own no bonds, and would pay
no interest.
In the first six months after the close of the
War, there were paid $233,491,778 as back pay
and transportation to send our soldiers to their
homes. This, too, according to Governor Eien
and the Democratic journals, was a Republican
"squandering of money on partisan objeots."
In order to make it Demooratio or non-partisan,
our soldiers should have been sent home
beggars and penniless, or the amount paid
Should have been equally divided between the
armies of Grant and those of Lee. Btill more
Democratic weald it have been to lump the
Union and Rebel debts into one, and theu re
pudiate the whole.
Oat of the same sum $49,382,859 were paid
In bounties to Union soldiers only. Clearly a
Republican "squandering of money on parti
Ban objects," as no bounties 'were paid to
Rebels.
Eleven million dollars more were paid to
Union men for property lost and destroyed
during the war. As none of this was inten
tionally paid to Rebels for property destroyed
toy the Union armies, this also was "money
Squandered on partisan objects."
Should the Democrats come into power they
would reotify this injustice by paying Rebels
for the devastations committed by the Union
armies on the property of Rebels. This is
what the Albany Argus means by saying that
the "unascertained" debt of the United States
amounts to about two and a half times the
ascertained debt, or $0,000,000,000. The
balance of the debt will never be "ascertained"
until the Democrats oome into power.
Ten million three hundred and thirty thou
sand dollars were reimbursed to Northern
States for sums advanced by them to aid in
Buppressing the Rebellion. This is dearly
partisan and Republican, as not a dollar was
reimbursed to the Rebel States, nor to the
New York rioters, nor the Sons of Liberty,
nor the St. Albans raiders, nor the Confederate
bondholders, nor the English pirates and
blockade-runners, for the losses incurred by
them in sustaining the Demooratio Rebellion.
Sixty million dollars were paid to the navy,
the brave sailors of Farragut, Porter, and
Foote, for back pay and oontraots made during
the war. As nothing was paid to Semmes,
Lynch, and the Rebel pirates, this is evidently
"money squandered on partisan objects."
So are the $185,42b127 paid in army ex
penses, including those of our Indian war, and
the $50,000,000 paid in pensions, and $73,000,
000 paid in the expenses of the navy, and the
$247,000,000 paid toward reducing the princi
pal of the debt.
It is rather more difficult to explain how the
$147,373,909 paid during the three years as the
ordinary expenses of the Government or civil
list, almost wholly to Johnson's forty-one
thousand Demooratio office-holders, who are
now contributing to pay the expenses of buy
ing votes for Seymour and Blair, can be re
garded as "money squandered for partisan
objeots," though doubtless soma of it may
inadvertently find its way into political
channels.
Then the expenses of reconstruction,
$2,344,700, were so equally divided between
the Demooratio "policy "governments set up
by President Johnson, and the final State
Governments authorized by Congress, as to
render the pickings moderate, when it is con
sidered that the officers of both Governments
Lave stood nearly as much chance of being
murdered by the Rebels and Ku-Klux as of
being paid.
Finally, $944, 8G0 has been expended in re
moving the exposed bodies and bleaohing
bones of both the Union and Rebel soldiers,
without distinction of the cause in which they
fell, and burying them decently in the national
cemeteries.
Having answered their inquiry, will the
wiseacres of the Demooratio party inform us
what are the other and Democratic objects on
which they would have expended the same
money ?
Tlie Mismanagement of the Campaign by
the Democratic Leaders aud Organs,
From the N. Y. Herald.
Beginning with the Tammany Hall Conven
tion, the Presidential campaign on the part of
the managers, leaders, and organs of the De
mocracy has been a budget of blunders. The
Convention was offered a fair field for a glori
ous victory over the radicals in the nomina
tion of Chief JuBtice Chase; but, by a "coup de
thimblerig," as a disgusted Western Democrat
has expressed it, the Chase movement was
extinguished, Pendleton was slipped away
end Seymour turned up "the little joker."
IVith the ink hardly dried of his printed
peech. against Pendleton, he aoopted the
Pendleton platform, with Wade Hampton's
revolutionary reconstruction amendment, and
thus, in overleaping himself, the blundering
beyniour found himself fighting the "lost
cause" of 1804 over again against the cham
pion of the Union war party and the con
queror of the Rebellion.
From this departure of the Tammany Con
vention the popular reactionary movement of
1807 against the radicals was instantly Btopped
and a new reaction commenced in favor of the
Republican party and General Urant on the
great issues of the war. To make the matter
worse for Seymour, the managers, leaders, and
organs of the Demooraoy undertook to
strengthen their desperate cause by personal
abuse of General Grant, and by the most Billy
and preposterous attempts to prove Grant an
ignoramus, destitute alike of any of the quali
ties of a statesman and of any merit as a sol
dier. Indeed, they would have 11 that ha was. I
only a remorseless .butcher and blanderer in I
the war and only a canning trickster in the
Cabinet. Holding 'np the KeDet ureuerat urn
as the model of military leaders, they have
still contended tbat the oonqueror of Lee blun
dered along from the Wilderness to Appomat
tox Court House. Of oourse this sort of party
warfare rapidly rallied "the Boys in Blue" and
the loyal people of the war standing behind
them around the banner of Grant, as the same
campaigning against General Jackson rallied
the honest masses of the people around him
forty years ago.
. In the next place, the constellation ef the
political and military leaders of the Rebellion
who figured so largely in the Tammany Con
vention' were permitted from the ontset to
proclaim that in the eleoiion of Seymour
"their lost cause would be regained; aud ac
cepting this appeal from Appomattox Court
House to the Tammany Convention the Union
party of the war are all in line again, and are
resolved to reaffirm, nnder Grant, the settle
ment of Lee's surrender. And yet, again, in
the outset of the oanvass the independent
press was favorably inclined towards the
Democratic party in view of the excesses and
wasteful extravagances of the dominant radi
cals. But certain self-sufficient and basely
envious Demooratio organs undertook the ab
surd experiment of a moral crusade against
every independent journal which would not
fling up its cap and hurrah for Seymour ac
cording to instructions from the Manhattan
ring. This absurd experiment, like that of
the scandalous abuse of General Grant as
citizen, civilian, and soldier, has only operated
to plague the inventors. The independent
press Btill flourishes as the representative of
an independent publio opinion, while the self
sufficient Demooratio organs aforesaid are evi
dently falling into the sere and yellow leaf
before the first frost.
It is "passing strange" that in this cam
paign oar Demooratio managers, leaders, and
organs appear to have forgotten, not only the
lessons of the war as given in the general run
of the elections since 1800, but the instructions
of all our great elections of the last forty
years. Their budget of blunders embraoes the
blunders of the Adams party of 1826, the
blunders of the Van Buren party of 1840, of
the Cass party of 1848, the blunders of poor
Pierce and Buchanan, the bluuders of the
Southern oligarchy at Charleston in 1800 and
of the Northern wing of the party at Chicago
in 1864, all rolled together. With such a load
upon bis back what hope is there for Sey
mour, nominated to fight over again the last
and most disastrous campaign of McClellan ?
Echo answers, none.
The Radicals aud the Wur.
Prom the N. Y. World.
Considering that the radicals claim to have
been the "war-party" of the North, it is rather
remarkable that they should be profoundly in
the dark as to the history of the war. They
celebrated on Thursday night the anniversary
of the battle of Antietatn as a great national
victory. But we bave always understood from
the Tribune that General McClellan, who cer
tainly commanded the army which triumphed
at Antietam, was a "Reb.il," and from the
Timts that he was inoapable of viotory.
Clearly, therefore, Autietam either was no
victory at all, or it was a "Rebel" victory, or
dreadful alternative the radicals are a crew
of noodles 1
At this same meeting, too, General Sickles,
a colonel of the regular army, who disgraoes
his uniform daily by taking money ior parti
san speeches while drawing his pay as an
officer of the United States, was hailed by the
audience as the "hero of Gettysburg." It
has been commonly supposed that the battle
of Gettysburg was fought by General Meade,
and that It was won in spite of" the monstrous
blunders committed by this same "General"
Sickles. Now that General Meade has done
bis beat to earn the favor of the radioals by
shutting np negroes in sweating-boxes to
make them bear false witness against Southern
white men, it is rather hard upon him that a
Btumplng stipendiary of the "Loyal Leaguers"
should get from them the credit of his military
achievements I
Patriotism, Democratic and Radical.
From the N. Y. World.
The Ttibune, whioh not only in "October,
1861," but for months afterwards, maintained
the right of the South to seoede from the
Union as not less sacred than the right of the
American colonists in 1776 to throw off the
yoke of the usurping British Parliament, now
abuses noratio Seymour for declaring in Ooto
ber, 1861, that the Southern people were enti
tled to tbat protection for their slave property
"which the Government guaranteed to them
by its terms." It is perfeotly natural, we
suppose, that the terms of a solemn constitu
tional compact should be regaided as of little
acpount by a Journal whioh openly derided
during the impeachment the notion that
Senators ought to be bound by their oaths.
Says the Tribune:
"There were large slaveholders who said, 'If
we niuat lose either slavery or the Union, take
our negroes and leave us our country I'
Horatio Bevmour felt differently."
"Large slaveholders," of oourse, had a
right to give np their property for their
country; but it is rather in the vein of A r te
rn as Ward proposing to shed the last drop of
the blood of his wife's last relation for his
country's sake, to assert that Horatio Sey
mour ought to have been willing to sacrilioe
other people's slaves. The Demooratio notion
of patriotism is that a man should respeot
other people's rights and his own obligations.
The radical notion is that a man should
make handsome sacrifices of other people's
property, and interpret contracts for himself
exclusively.
Rebel Leaders and the Eepublicau Tress.
Prom the N. Y. Time.
The Boston Fast, in its desire to vindicate
Wade Hampton and the Southern extremists,
suppresses one or two slightly important facts.
It Bays:
'Three years ago the radical papers were
peaking In admiration of Wade iltruptou's
frank aud in n y course lu advlsluK the people
of Bouih Carolina, while and blacK, lo begin
and profit by the costly lessons or the war, and
to place tbim.elv. 8 in Lai monious relations
with the Union without delay. 'Now the same
papers tare falling vloloLtly upon him as an
unsubdued Rebel' who would revive war in
the South. Yet they do not show that tanas
changed at all in his sentiiuorH for the Union.
It In radicalism that lias untie the mischief by
its growing usurpations, lor which it baa over
sll! over ukhIu been condemned, and jut as
often supported bv It own leading Journals.
How loi gagowasit that these Journals were
proclaiming in the very rouuilem terms that
the men of the South who openly fought us In
the field, were the ones to become the firmest
friends lu a elate of peace f Yet brave men
like wade Hampton are abused by them for
pretiuinlng to be present in a National Demo
crat lo Convention, ana to address the citizens
of New York In favor of the common Union."
There can be no doubt, we presume, that
when the war ended the Southern leaders
were ready to aocede to any terms whioh the
national Government might have diotated.
They were impoverished, dispirited, and alive
to the futility of prolonging the strurgle
against the authority of the Union. They
realized their position as conquered llebsls, and
the right of the Government to exact condi
tions preliminary to restoration to the Uniou.
This general fact has been often stated, and,
so lar as we know, baa never lion ppeoifioally
dtnicd.
Among others who comprehended the situ
ation,1 and evinced i a disposition to adapt
themselves to its requirements, was Wade
HamptouT- He talked fairly." lie professed
to recognize the signifloanoe of the changes
wrought by the war, and the obligation
whioh the result imposed upon all who bat
resisted the national authority, lie declared
himself anxious to assist in the work of
t conciliation, and, acknowledging the altered
status of the negro, expressed a willingness to
support qualified enfranchisement. At that
period unless our memory be greatly at
fault while opposing universal suffrage, h
took ground in favor of giving votes to those
of the colored people whose intelligence and
thrift should prove their fitness for the privi
lege. The?e were the ciroumstanoes in whioh
Republican journals spoke "in admiration of
Wade Hampton's frank and manly course."
The Republican party had then soaronly
pasFed the threshold of reconstruction, and a
cor sider able proportion of its members re
garded qualified and impartial suffrrge, with
out reference to color, as the best basts for
determining the political rights of the freed
men. Soon, however, the olass of whom Wada
Hampton is a representative began to misin
terpret the temper and purposes of the ruling
party. They failed to appreciate the magna
nimity whioh bad been shown to them, and
bailed the course of the President adverse to
Congress as evidenoe of a weakness on the
part of the latter by which they might profit.
Their tactics underwent a change. From an
attitude of submission they jumped to one of
defiance. They were no longer willing to sub
mit to terms. They forgot that they were con
quered. And, rejecting very liberal conditions
of reconciliation, they claimed a right to resto
ration, free from all terms and restrictions.
They insisted, in short, that conquered rebel
lion should dictate to victorious loyalty, and
tbat those to whom the war had given freedom
should be made civilly and politically subject
to the class who formerly owned them. From
tbat moment the Wade Hamptons changed
their tune. They talked no more of impartial
suffrage. They contended only for the over
throw of reconstruction, and the disfranchise
ment and permanent subjeotion of all whom
God made black.
In this spirit their leaders attended the New
York Convention. They were not, however,
assailed "for presuming to ba present." The
natural allies of the Demooraoy, their presenoe
excited no surprise. If they afterward found
themselves objects of unpleasant remark, they
bave only themselves to blame. Forrest threw
down the gauntlet by nominating General
Blair, with the Bradhead letter as his only
recommendation. Wade Hampton followed
suit by declaring that white votes alone shall
be counted, and that a majority acquired with
the help of black votes shall be overborne.
He of all men first resorted to bluster about
bayonets. Yet later, he expatiated upon the
triumph of the Rebel element in the construc
tion of the Democratic platform, taking to
himself credit for inserting the phrase com
mitting the party to the revolutionary doo
trine of the Blair letter.
The Southern extremists, then, have no just
cause of complaint against the Republican
press. If its language concerning them differs
from that whioh it employed soon after Lee's
surrender, it is because their tone and conduct
bave entirely changed. They were then, pro
fessedly, willing to oomply with requirements
laid down by the Government; they are now,
avowedly, resolved to resist its authority and
undo its work. The;change is in them, not in
the leaders or the journals of the Republican
party. '
The War Tarty.
From the Jf. Y. Independent.
Tiia httmoanti. p-t k bouounj me war
party; and that, too, in the time of peace. Its
platform declares "the Reconstruction aots (so
called) of Congress" to be "usurpations, and
unconstitutional, revolutionary, and void."
This declaration, if carried into effect, meaus
that Congressional reconstruction is to be
swept away from top to bottom. Will it be
carried into effect if the Democrats triumph iu
the coming election? So Wade Hampton
understands the purpose of the party. So
General Blair openly proolaims. So the whole
tribe of Rebels and the Demooratio sympa
thizers both mean and demand.
Of course, the reoonstruoted State govern
ments, now in actual operation and repre
sented in both Houses of Congress, are to be
treated as null and void as really having no
legal existence or rightful authority. ; This is
the necessary result of the Damocratlo pro
position, when put into practice. Is, then,
any man so foolish as to suppose that this
will or can occur without a second war, in
volving anarchy and bloodshed at the South,
and quite likely sweeping over the whole
country f These State governments are
already in existence. They are not abstract
ideas, but concrete facts. They have their
officers of law, installed not only in the coun
cils of the State but also in those of the nation.
They also have their earnest supporters, both
North and South. And these, let it be re
membered, are solid facta, not to be disposed
of or brushed away by a mere resolution.
Nothing can dispense with them but revolu
tionary violence. Suoh violence means war.
It can mean nothing else. The Democratic
programme, if reduced to practical effaot, will
and must bring on a collision of arms.
We are aware that the Democrats claim
tbat these reconstructed Governments are ille
gal, and that for this reason they may and
should be displaced; yet they exist as facts
nnder Congressional legislation. Moreover,
Southern loyalists, supported by the Republi
can party, claim that these Governments are
duly constituted, and that they must be main
tained. Here are elements of immense danger
to the peace of the country the moment the
Democratic doctrine assumes a practical form.
Rebels of the Wade Hampton school are ready
for the Etrife; but are the Avnerioan people
ready ? No graver question b.aa ever been
placed before the publio mind.
What does the Demooratio party propose to
substitute in place of these governments, de
clared to be "unconstitutional, revolutionary,
and void ?" Of course, they mean to have
State governments at the South of Borne kind.
What shall they be, and in what respeot shall
they differ from those already in existence f
There Is no difficulty in answering this ques
tion. The Demoorats mean the proof thereof
is as dear as the light of day to disfranchise
the negro, and restore the Rebels to power.
They mean in this way to make these States
Demooratio States; and. by this means, plaoe
the party once more in power in the National
Government. They want the votes of their
Southern Demooratio friends, nine-tenths of
whom are unrepentant Rebels. The political
reason is the great secret of their hostility to
the reconstruction measures of Congro3S.
Southern Rebels affiliate themselves with
Northern Democrats, because this is their
only hope for saving the "lost cause;" and
Northern Demoorats affiliate themselves with
Southern Rebels, and make a platform to
their liking, becanse by so doing they hope at
last to achieve a politioal sucoess. Comblue
the two, and give them the control of the
Government, and then the old Damocratlo
n'gime would be again in full blast. The rights
ot the negro would be crushed to the earth.
Slavery would be re-establihe! iu elfaot, if
not in form. The national debt would bj re
pudiated. The very mn who were the chief
causes of the Rebellion weald rule the parly
and rule the Government. - The victories on
the battle field would all be lost by the
strategies ef the politician. Rebellion would
te the winner, and loyalty the loser.
Suoh are the natural and alnost certain con
sequences to ensue from the suocnss of the
Demooratio party in the pending election. Will
the Amerlcaa people invite . these results f
Will it be best in this stage of the question to
reverse the whole action of Gungress, and
start out upon a new and revolutionary track,
for the sake of plaoing the Democrats in
power f Is it not best for the peace of the
country to let the Republican party the party
that carried the nation safely through the war
finish what would long sluoe have bean
consumed but for the treaohery and perversity
of Andrew Johnson ? We appeal to the friends
of liberty and lovers of peace to vote down the
Seymour and Blair ttoket. General Grant says,
"Let ns bave peace." The way and, hu
manly speaking, the only way to have this
peace is thoroughly to defeat the war party at
the ballot-box.
