SOME of our cop frilpnds are pretty candid
now and then.;, A prominent onoof Bridge
water a few days ago was clamoring loudly in
.' i t'avor of the rctlempalm of the Government
-bonds with greenbacks. A radical asked him
how many dollars in greenbacks it'would take
to accomplish that feat. The Democrat didn't
know, but.supposed about two billions. The
radical then inquired what this enormous
amount of greenbacks was to .be redeemed
with. "The truth is",aaid the Democrat, "we
dint propose to redeem tl , .nt at aIL" "We were
opposed to the war In th tirSt.plaoe, and we
are in favor now of disow ing all the obliga- .
flow incurred to 'carry I on." "If .we can
pay the bonds
,Off in recnbacks and the
greenbacks become world teas, our object' will ,
ho actomplislo4 r , We w 11 then be satisfied.'
Union own ! make a not of this admission.—
Tho Denioemti propose • rat to swindle the
bond/utters. 'After that s accomplished their
nest move, is to chetit ti •.t vet* by repudia
tingthe great volume o Paper money with

csby electing Grant and Colfax.
Tun. Democrattcp, ity are unfortunate In
trying to make a slifiv of generals. Of nigh:
teen guncrels and .c6lonels who signed the
call fur the Conservative Soldiers' and Sailors'
Convention, it terns out that but four arc en-
titled to wear the rank they assume. The rest
were eilLr of a lower rank when they left
the service early in the war, or had been dis
charged for the'pablie gotxl, bad never been
in' he service at all. Yet "In this Conven
tion," says the • "we shall see, not the,
prosperous sutleri and schemers of the Na
tional Army, battle battle-scarred, war-worn
campaigners of the East and \Vest," &e. We
would be glad tol know more of geese Conner
, •ative Generals Donahue, -Lane, McQuade,
Knipe, 3laulsby, l'arithurst, Gorman; , Bragg;l
Law reier, ;lattisik, 111latek, Dickeyi-and Mc.-
Tarland. Are the the war-worn veterans,
eomparetl With' w hum the supporters of Grant,
'like Sherman. Thoma 4, Sheridan, Schofield,
'toward, Meade, Canby, hooker, 13nruside,
Logan, Palmer, Cox, Geary, Terry, Otd,
R a wlins, Wilson, Fairchild, Sickl', and so
many others, are carpet knights, prosperous
sutlers, or schemers of the National Arty?
If the Democratic party would summon its
"veterans to the front," let it not :confirm it
self t o th os e officers who, in the Union raults,
Aided the Rebel cause, nor be squiauntsh in
uttering the names of the real generals who
fought for Demix:ratic principles. They are
Lee, Beattresarcl, Johnson, Braxton linigg,
and the like. For ycanyke platform of the
Democratic party declared that, in any con-,1
filet between Federal and State authonty, it
the right of the State to Judge for itself
th of the molts of conflict and the means
and nuoisurea, of redress. This was Denio
chitin dm-In a ne. For ibis thaw men fought.
If the Democratic poity `Wants to bring its
"veterans to the front," there they are. ,Why
