On ft par with the cowardly eir.irt of the
World, and other weak-kneed profeineii Demo
crats, to sacrifice our candidates during the
late camp aigu, ia the unheard of aud demoral
izing pr position now uiade by certain parties
in the country to lay the LV uiourauy of the
land at the left of the Bnioke-euvelnpfld Aool
dent who has lately bet n elevated to tun Presi
dential chair. It pppma strange to uu that men
professedly gifted with sense wl'.h putriotirtin
with love of country, and belief iu tbe prin
ciples of Democracy, should now, above all
other times, urge the diabandineut of the
Democratic party urge the grouudiDg of oar
arms, and submitting ouranlves as willing
captives to the power we all detest.
The country id torn aud bleeding. Finances
are shattered as never before. Tim Cousiitii
tionis now, as it has been for years, ignored.
The principles which aloue have mate this
country great are the principles of Democracy,
and while the people are striving agiimt
almost iusurmouutable obstacles to restore
the conntry to its once prjud position, it
Seems to us criminally wicked for any man,
professing to be a Drnioorat, to urge tbe hani
ing over of the gallant army of freeman, which
has the past year so earnently waged war
against despotism, to the care aud keeping of
a man or party in antagonism to tbe interests
of the people and the welfare of the country.
The late campaign has been one of temb;e
endeavor. But for the cowardice and treachery
of those in high places in the Democratic
party, but for the inexcusable aotioa of the
World and its ell'ort to demoralize th party
daring a most important contest, the Demo
cratic vote of the Uui'ed States woull now
have been a quarter million stronger than it
is at present.
The Democracy have made the best fight
this year they have ever made. As Demo
crats we have worked against opposition, tbe
like ef which was never kuown to or placed
before a political party in the world. The
parse of the oountry, in the bauds of wicked,
corrupt, unprincipled men, has been against
us. The aristocracy of tbe land, with purses
plethoric with plunder, have worked upon
the wants and sufferings of tbe people. Toe
powers of the Uovernuieut have been turned
against the people; but deepite all this, the
cause of Democracy has been steadily in
creasing, and to-day the Democratic vote of
the country is stronger than ever before since
the confederation of States, which can only be
restored to their place and power through the
supremacy of Democracy.
We did not vote for Grant. We did not
urge his election. We worked against him
because we had no contideuce in his ability,
his honesty, or his integrity. We did all in
our power to defeat him, believing it was for
the interests of the couuiry that he should be
defeated. We worked against him and against
the men he is in league with: aguiust the
party he is professing to lead, because we
knew the party to be oorrupt, wicked, and
Unprincipled, as never was party before; be
cause we had no faith in the ability of Grant
or hit) baokers to carry us through the coming
year, or the honesty of the party that makes
f him but a catxpaw for tbe benefit of de
signing men. Our war agaiutt Grant was an
honest one; it was an earner. t one; it was oue
that we believed necessary; but tbe purse, the
Sword, and the Puritanism of the laud have
triumphed tor a time, aud though the gains
of the Democracy have been grea', they have
not been sufficient to overcome the opposition
it had to cope with.
We must go on with the fight the next four
yeaie, or till liberty thall again be restored to
our country. For one, we do not intend to
submit to Grant or his dictation, except it be
in accordance with law. For one, we most
earnestly protest against discontinuing tbe
warfare of Democracy against Republicanism;
and in behalf of the people whose cause is our
cause, whose liberties are our liberties, we
shall prosecute the contest for the right with
unabated vigor, till our rights be given us,
and till the Confederation of State, born of
patriotism in the days agone, be restored to
the proud position it ouce held. We have
no confidence in Grant, neither have the Re
publicans. We have no confidence iu any
man who is not true to his party, his prin
ciples, and his profession. We have no confi
dence in any man who, for the sake of power,
place, position, or a price, would forsake tbe
principles he long had professed to believe in.
But we had rather be disappointed in Graut
than have the country go on as it has been
going for the past few years. We had rather
Grant would prove himself tbe statesman, tbe
patriot, and the man of genius some claim
that he is, than to have the country detracted
and at unrest, as is now tbe cse. We had
rather a million times that events would prove
us in the wrong, thau to have our country
Suffering as it has bem sullying lor the few
years that it has been Inborn. g under Republi
can rule. If Graut, by his own genius, or by
the aid of wisdom from any higher power, can
restore the country to its peace aud pros
perity, then, and not till then, shall we be
willing to give Lim credit for genius, for
patriotism, for honesty, aud for stability of
purpose. We are williug to aid hi in by all
the lawful means in our power, but we
are not willing to ground arms aud say that
we shall not criticize him or his prty, or
that our party shall be thrown before the
Wheels of this smoking Juggernaut. We are
Willing to endorse tbat wbicu he may do
which is right, as we most certainly shall con
demn tbat which may be wrong, or wbicb. we
may believe to be wrong, li Grant's words
and acts are these of wisdom and love for the
people, then (hall we give him credit. If he
proves him?elf to be more of a patriot than a
partisan; if he proves to love his oountry more
and his party less; if he proves to be actuated
by that high aud holy love for tbe light which
is not at present fonud in the Republican
party, then no man in all the land will yield
hiui more obedience or speak in better
terms of him thau ourselves.. We shall
interpose no obstacle or argument between
him and the right. He is now Presi
dent. It ia for him to save the country, or
help ruin it. It is for him to be a man or a
tool. It is for Lim to be a patriot or a plun
derer. And as time rolls by, and his acts
prove htm to be worthy of confidence, so shall
that confidence be given him as he may be
worthy of it. - We, ask for none of his patrou-
age. We ask for no place at bU diupiBtl, nor
do we fear any battues n miv have tbe
turning of keys upon. Grant is not a Demo
crat; we are. lie is not in sympathy with
the Democracy; we .are. He it in sympathy
With men Who have helped ruin tbe oountry;
wears not. lie -4s ia sympathy with tbose
who love 1 place and power more than they
love' patriotism and liberty; we are not., 1U
t4 ,in sympathy with the bpnihol ier, the
usurpers of power," the men who .care
more for self than others; we are not. We
want none of his ofhoes; we would not sell the
Democrat for a price, aa would many others
We would not cease our warfare against
wrong, in behalf of Democracy, to please Gene- I
ral Grant or my man upon the faoe of the I
earth. And in tbis feeling we well know that
millions of Deuiocrats in the land stand by us.
to endorse and to defend the priuoip'es which
we have so long defended, aud which we are
determined to defend in the iuture.
l et therein no more talk of turning over
the Democratic party to Grant in hopes to
make a Democrat of him. The Republicans
have won him openly aud squarely. Oa them
snd tLeirs rests the responsibility for the next
four years. If it is in tbe power of the
Republican party to save tbe couutry, then
that party is b-.ter than we tbinklt is. But,
in God's name, let us not as Democrats weaken
onrfelves, weaken our party by this desertion
of piiniiples in hopes to gain a share of the
pickings aud stealings which are at tbe dis
posal of the Executive. Let us not, as did
Fsau in the days of old, sell our birthright of
states, of lilerty, of principle, of Democracy,
for a mess of pottage, or for the a-h-a which
Grant has in his power to knock from the
cllicial cigar which he holds to consume.
Rather let us stand by our principles, aud de
fend them to the last. Let us stand by our
principles to hold in check the party iu power,
that all may the sooner be well.
The "Aiili.Slavcry Standard'
From the N. Y. World.
Tbe Anti-Slavery Standard, which feebly
fights windiaills such as slavery, cauuibalism,
witch-burniug, and like issues tbat obtaiued
twenty years ago, but which utterly iguores
whatever pertains to the live present, is very
much vexed with the World, because, in its
vocation as a newspaper, it is the reuoguized
organ of whatever pertains to tbe various
movements now in progress for the advance
ment of women and women's interests. If
tbe M orld would oaly Join, with the Anti
blartry Standard and howl aoout slavery as it
once existed in New England, or slavery as it
onc obtained in Texas, all right; but to
take note of what is now doing to bring
intelligent, taxpaying white women some
where near tbe platform of "rights"
upon which the flat feet of negroes
are about to be nailed if radicalism has its
will, is something which esoites the iudigna
tion of the Anti-Slavery Standard. But we
find in that paper of last Saturday a circular,
signed by Jlary Grew, Louisa A. Dorsey, and
fifteen or twenty more women, soliciting con
tributions of '-coffee, tea, sugar, oysters, celery,
boiled chickens (for salai), eggs, butter,
cream, biscuits, cake (especially home inad.j
cake)," and also money, and these womeu
declare that the contributions are for the sup
port of the Anti-Slavery Standard. Tbe
women are thus at liberty to contribute boiled
chickens and money for the support of the
Standard; but when it comes to receiving
anything in return, suffrage for instance, the
Standard returns the cold shoulder for the
boiled chickens and sneers in pay for salad.
If there ia a work against which we strongly
advise women, it is holding charity tea-fairs
for the support of such sheets as the Standard.
Don't give them an egg.
Humors of llalin.
fYom the If. Y. World.
The Honorable Michael HaLu is a resident
or JNew Orleans, in tbe state of Louisiana.
Hahn, humor, and history curiously combine
in tbe following brief narrative: In lbl
Hahn was a rampant Rebel, who presented
Hags to the Mew Orleans regiments that
marched to tbe defense of RicbmoLd. In
18U2 Hahn was one of the two members of
Congress whom Butler, by advice from
Washington, caused to be elected iu Louisiana.
In 1803, Habu, by appointment of Bauks, was
Military, Governor of Louisiana, la istii
Hahn, under the Lincoln-Banks reconstruc
tion of Lonis iara, was elected Governor of the
btate, and tbe reconstructed Legislature chose
Hahn a United States Senator. In ldliij,
Hahn was one of the wounded martyrs
in the radical riot of August iu
New Orleans. And after having done,
and been, and suffered all these things, it
is one of the hucest humors of the whole re
construction farce tbat this same Hahn should
have been whitewashed by a special act of
Congress and relieved from hia Rebel disabili
ties only in July of ISO'S. It was hardly worth
while to have gone through so much to have
come out with so little. Evidently, Hahn
feels this now, for after his flag presentations,
his seatless Congressional career, bis worth
less Governorship, his barren Senatorship,
and his bogus martyrdom, he at last reaches
the real elevation and trne honor of a genuine
editorship. Yes, Hahn has become the editor
of the New Orleans Republican, and so an
nounces himself in a salutatory wblou appears
in that paper November 20. Ia this saluta
tory he says:
"Having tiien on terms of personal frioudsbtp

Jf thise words are prophecy, they are preg
nant with promise to the down-trodden, dis
franchised citizens of the South. It will, in
deed, be "a new era in the political circum
stances of the times" in that region if "every
man is to be protected in his political
opinions," and if ho is permitted not only to
"enjoy his opinions, but to assert thurn aud
support them by his vote." 15ut in such
event, what heenmrs of reconstruction? Whit

Fi om the A. Y. JJerald.
A certain lecturer once attributed to the
family of mankind two distinctly separate
natures human nature and French nature,
and announced the laUer as the topic of his
lecture. Were he now to repeat it he might
find fresh illustrations in theaccouut which we
published yesterday of the recent extraordi
nary press prosecutions iu l'aris. In tbe trial
of the llaudin tare, which came to a close on
the 15th iLStant, the chargo gainst the de
fendants, their adroit replies to tbe inquisitorial
interrogatory of the President ;of the court,
the caubtio eloquence of their counsel and tbe
strange verdicts rendered, oompose.a legal and
historical curiosity of the greatest interest.
The defendants were charged with haviug
"practised manoDUVres within the realm with
the object of holding up tbe Government to
hatred and contempt." The kind of interroga
tory to w hicb, according to the peonliar oustoui
of French courts, they were subjected, may be
Infened from one or two examples.
Thng Mr. Quentlu, editor of the Hi'veil, ras
closely questioned as to his motives aud those
of his sou in wearing a red cachenrz, or com
forter, at the commemoration of the funeral of
llaudin, who was killed at the barrioales when
Louis Napoleon made his coup dVtitt. Tbe
same editor was also asked why he made a
speech at Daudiu'a grave, aud what were the
wo?ds he uttered f His reply wt:-"The
prosecution has no substance; it ia founded
on nothing, lou prosecute me for making a
speech, and yon want me to tell what the
speech was." The cross-examination of the
defendants was followed by a speech by the
vli'ocuf Imperial, who developed at enormous
length his theme tbat they were guilty of "a
regularly organized plan to attack tbe very
principle of the Government unler tin pre
tense of doing honor to Hamlin's memory."
Mr. Ci6inieux, iu defending Mr. Q lentiu,
demonstrated the aburdity of the prosecution
of his client for a speech of which the I'ro
ciirmr Jwpt'rial could not produce eilhnr the
text or tbe substance, tie said "the Govern
ni-nt had biougbt the '2 tot Dscember iuto
oouit, and he would exercise acouusel's privi
lege to sp-ak about it." Auioug tbe strongest
points of the philippic iuto which In tbsu
launched was his declaration tbat "it wa
nothing to the purpose to say tint Dr-cembr-r
2 had been 'absolved.' So had the lS'.U
llrumaire. How mauy millions of suffragx
had pro. 1 aimed first tbe cousula'e for life aud
afterwards the empire 1 But crime could ual
be ab.-olved by a catcb vote, and certainly not
the greatest of alt crimes, tbat of laying a
soldier's violent hand upon the national repre
sentation. Six'eeu years later (bere Mr. Crc
mieux said with marked emphasis, 'I bng
you to obseive the datei'), tbe representatives
of the people drove out tbe author of the 18ih
lliuniiire." iu conclusion, Mr. Crouj'eux
said: "Let the second empire erect as many
statues as it likes to its favorites, an 1 let pos
terity respect them as it might see tit, but 1st
the vamiuii-hed of 1851 be at libertv to pay
simple funeral Honor to the dead. France was
a great aud glorious nation, which mast be
taken as it ws, with all its gool qualities and
detects. France, like Neptune, would some
tiroes stride across the world in tbree d.tys,
and then, frighteued ai her own progress, she
wonld come ha. k agaiu aud euff-r herself to
be guided iuatead of guiding. Hit it should
beiememberedtb.it tbree days might repair
all losses; tbe future was wilb progress." Mr.
Emanuel Arago and Mr. Gambetta were no less
Eevere than Air. Cicmieux iu their invectives
against the Government. All the counsel
availed theint-elves to tbe utmost of the capi
tal opportunity the Government had foolishly
enough afforded them of arraigning December
2 before tbe bar of public opinion, and of
hurling at it terrific indictments, which will
be copied by tbe piess throughout the world
and btereotjptd for the perusal of posterity.
It is difficult to resist tbe cuuviclion that in
the'e press prosecutions in l'aris, Napoleon
111 haj committed mistakes similar to tho?e o'
Cbar.es X aud of Louis l'mltppe. It rem tins
to be seen wbetber such mistakes will prove
as fatal to the Bnuapart-s as they proved to
the Bourbons and to the Orleaus. We kuow,
however, tbat bistoty repeats itself in all
fc&tions, and oftenest in France.
3Ir. Disraeli aud the Peerage.
From the Y. Tmt.
Mr. Disraeli has refustd the peerage offerod
him by the Uleeu lor under the circum
stances the I'iler must, of course, have pro-
k-etueu oirecuy ana spontaneously irom ner
Maji-siy. But while declining the honor
which tbe Queen has wisbed lo confer upon
him, he has accepted the mark ot the royal
favor convened in the writ which oreates Mrs.
Disraeli a peeiese iu her on right, "by the
style aud title of Viscountess iieacousfiid, of
Btacnmheld, in the county of Buckingham
shire, which county has now b-eu represeuted
iu i'arliament by Mr. Disraeli for nearly a
quarter of a ceutuiy. We are not surprised
to hear of the original offer, the refusal, or
the arrangement which was ultimately effected.
It is in accoiduucn with precedent tbat when a
statesman bas tilled tigti office for as long as
Mr. Disiaeli has done during his three 'erins,
tbe honors of the pet-iage should be teudered
him. At the prer-eut juncture, too, it is quite
probable that tbe Queen, whose persoual sym
pathies with the Toiies iu the matter of the
Irish Church are notorious, desigued this
special mark of her favor as a reward to the
Premier for his energetic defense of the
threatened institution. In either case, iu
view of the probable expulsion of the Ministry
from office within a few weeks, it was more
graceful that the offer should be made to-day
than after the serious conflict ia Parliament
had commenced.
it is not astonishing that Mr. Disraeli
should have declined tbe proffered peerage.
To a man of his restless aud energetic nature,
and untiring capacity for work, tbe House of
Lords would be political annihilation. Wuile
few members of the Lower House have ever
been gifted with greater powers of sarcasm
aud invective, few have ever so invariably
restrained themselves more rigidly within ihe
proprieties of debate. But the dull decorum
of the House of Lords, rarely enlivened by
more than a passing breath of animation,
renders it no place for Mr. Disraeli. Besides,
his presence in the Commons isaosolutelv
essential to the well beibg of his party. We
are iLclintd to faucy, inileed, tbat the days of
l'jiiue Miuioters in tbe Upper House aienum
tiered, but at all events iu ibis cse it was out
of the question to leave the Commons.
The 'i'oiy party bas now either to "educate"
itself or to iiht galiautly to tbe last, aud then
capitulate with tue honors of war. In Hither
cu.e, it stands iu need of its leader's presence
iu tbe battle-tleld itself'. As it is now, all the
honor implied iu th graut of a peerage is con
ferred upon Mr. Disraeli through his wife,
white he will still be able to retain a seat on
oueTjf the trout beuuhrfS iu lb House of Com
mous whether that to the right or left of tbe
peake)'s chair will be kuo.vu ia u few days
more.
We are told that the Loudon journals unite
in ' eulogizing the career" of the Premier, iu
commenting ou tbe ufUir. iN iw if Ltbsral
journals cau be found to join anybody in
speaking well of Mr. I 'Israeli, either the mil
lennium innst be at hand, or they must feel so
confident of victory as to be full of chanty
towards a foe whom they already look upon
half slain.
Krie.
From the N. Y. Tribune.
Our early and steadfast devotion to the Erie
Railitad when it was as yet an unsatistied
aspiration the many columns we wrote iu its
behalf, and tbe little mouey we gladly con
tributed to help to build it little enough for
the road, but quite a sum for us impel us to
an utterance piovoked by the decline of its
fortunes. We shall take the utmost care to
tell truth that the publio should know, with
out subjecting ourselves to indictment for libel
or imprisonment lor contempt of court.
Tbe real cost of tbe Eiie Road was about
$50,000,(100, whreof the State freely gave
$3,000,000. Add $10,000,000 outlay for
branches honestly constructed or purchased
for the good of the concern, and not especially
of its directors, aud tben suppose the $3,000,000
given by the State to have been used up in
contingencies, and the road and appendages
sbould stand this day ad having cost ita stock
holders 6U0.00O.000.
its gross income, after the deduction of
stealings, is officially reported at about
k) 0.000 000 per annum for several years back
Say that sixty per cent, of the gross earnings
are absorbed in repairs and running expenses,
and there remain for the stockholders
$(1,000,000 per annum, or ten per cent, ou the
net cost.
Why is it,' then, that the stockholders
have had no dividends for years, and that the
stock is now selling at 4i, which is probably
more thau it is worth ?
Ceitainly not for want of busins, as the
gross receipts aunua'ly establish. We stopped
over one diy lai-t winter at Middletown, close
beside the Krie track; and we judged that a
train passed that station every fifteen minutes
not lees tbau eighty, at all events, within
the twenty-four hours. Coa1, lumber, milk,
petroleum, cattle, swine, aud alinst every
description of produce, filled oar after cr of
these trains till some or them stretched a full
quarter of a mile; while merchandise, manu
factures, metals, machinery, etc, choked
those that passed inliud. This, to be sure,
was ou the eastern or seaboard division; but,
we Ppeut a night last Decemlier at Great Val
ley, Cattaraugus county, aud listened to the
compluiuts of alumberuiau of that locality,
who said he had been all smnmer beggiug
for cars to take his plank, boards, etc., east
ward to maiket, aud could never gt bilf
enough. He loaded whole trains, and paid
whatever freight the directors saw fit to charge;
yet his produce remaiued for months oa his
hands, when it was wauted at this city, and
he wauted the pay for it, but the cars could
not te had.
Why is it that Erie built for far less thau
it would cost to-day after paying its stock
holders no dividends for years, is now Belling
at 40?
Tbe answer is simply and surely tuis Vil
lany in high places. Tbe road has bien plua
deied on this baud and on that by directors,
by emploj6s, by lawyers, by judges, atlft by
legislators, till its stock may not bt worth
even the pittance it now commands. Pious
villains have preyed upou it; profane villains
have drained its lifeblood; judicial villaius
have broken its bones and sucked the mar
row; in short, tbe devoarers of wilows' houses
Lave had their will of it, with the result that
we now see aud deplore.
Is is not possible tbat some of these villains
shall now be brought to justice aud made to
disgorge ? Admit that the stockholders are
robbed beyond recovery, does not the honor of
our btate inexorably demand it?
