cans among the
. laboring (-lasses of
that party,' and many outside those
classes, who profess su great abhor
rence of the extreme abolit,:lon doc
trine of the equality of the two races
white,ind -black" as the democrats
do. They profess to be to sincerely
and positively opposed to the exten
sion of suffrage and the right of hold
ing office and participating in the of
fain of government to the negro as
the democrats are, and in ordinary
daily conversation they aver that nev
er, by their votes or influence shall
either political or social equality be
conferred upon the blacks. Now if
these nominal members of the repub
lican party, who are very—nutnerut,
in all the States, are Kineere in what
they say, it will be impossible for

with that party—and. without their
votes for its nominees. it cannot Car
ry a single northern State. except,
perhaps, Vermont. It is our+ purpose
to address this class of nominal re
publicans. They are numerous in
Centre County and in other counties
where the WATCHMAN circulates, and
we are disposed to believe thew sin
sere in their professions, ind to show
thew upon what evidence we ground
our belief of the intention of the lead
era pf the# party to force negro
equality upon the country. hoping
that•it may be sufficient to eunvinre
them,. and to alienate them forever
from a party with whom they can on
ly continue to act by giving up their
opinions, smothering their natural
aversions and sacrificing their pride
of race.' The ach e rump Con

equality upon the citizens of the Dis

All it.: preeedhnt. in the darkest era

or proereas a party who , e leaders
are openly at war with the God and
religion of the who defy the
ona and 4(.1)i , e the other, all them

On precisely the same ground that
Kian's desperadoes were. known as
lambs by the people they were hang
ing and tearing to pieces,. the party
at, present destroying..the government
of the United Stated, andthreatening
the liberty 'and happiness of the
American people, are entitled to the
name of "Republican." History will
accept the name in this case just as
it did in the other, and future refer
athnis will know that the most des
pone rower of modern times, in grim
facetiousness, called itself Republican.
Ti' this nay, we often call them by
the name they chose to call them
selves by, l'-aving it to our readers to
understand that we believe them to
he all that iv opposed to republican
ism, or any sort. of free government
whatever. We might very easily
trace them' through every stage of
their progress, front the hour they
tir,t became a party until they stood
tiiunaphant over the wreck of our
glorious republic,' and laid their
b'oody hands heavily upon our free
institution., to show that they are in
herently despotic and naturally op
po.ed tii freedom. Bet their presen
attitude is enough to convince any
wan who is not wholly blinded or en
ed, of the truth of what we allege.
Since re
our English annestors toed
.
tharkt from King doliti, morn'
than six hundred years ago, no Brit
ish monarch has ever dared to im
pose upon any people of our blood the
kind of government which is now im
p,rmrd upon the South. In every in•
stance where it was attempted, it cost
the tyrant his throne or his life, or
'both. We do not say this` with

political opponents, but because it is

The Success of "Great Moral Ideas."
When the revolution now in pie

Were suliart enough to see that their
theories would shock the hone,t im
pulses of those: they meant to lead
and destroy, being so utterly subver
sive of every principle they had been
educated to believe and reverence. --
To provide against this, they dissemi
nated widely the idea that we were
living M a most Rrogressivs age, and
that our fathers - were nitre children
when compared with the preseutgen
tration. Unfortunately the people
were not sufficiently educated in the
SCielll:C of government, and were easily
deluded by thin cunning appeal lo
their pride and self-love. They
eagerly swAllowed the bait, and 80011
believed that the unedueved. impulse,
and undigested ideas of the present
generation wore butter guides in gov
ernmental affairs than the old and
settled ffrineiples, which the expe
rience of ages had estaultslied

enough to have supported twice the
