IT h belleied that the time bas come in the progress
of American arehltecture, when the • qnestion will no
longer be asked, "What shall we use for roofing?
but, "Wmutz out we daunt rue SIST States."-. 1
Older countrksiave long )rlnee established the fact
that no nuiteriat is so well adapted, and so durable, as
Slate for covering buildings. Two obstacles to Its
general use In this country havo existed heretofore
Fret, the transition character of society, which is
necessarily opposed to permanence in archietturtit,
and second, the great abundance aid /owl:trice of lige
ber. The first impediment Is rapidly yielding to time
and riper idelkon the soled Olfltiging, and the oth
or must Kam give away to the scarcity and advancing
price of lumber suitable for roofing purposes.
'We subMII &lbw : leading advantages of a Slate roof

dark blue, unchangeable in color; splits 'ln perfect!

It was discovered that the institution of slay

acknowlede as the corm-stone of the Om federact

:Just about the same time Hortitu Seymour
made a speech upon this and other subjects.
He says: "If it is true that slavery must be
abolished to save the Union the 'people of
the South should be allowed to withdraw
themselves from that Government which can
not give them the protection guaranteed by its
terms." This is the language of Seymour:
Lincoln declared after Grant, that if he
could save the Union with doom', he would
save it ; if be could save the Union by a par
tial destruction of slavery be would save it ;
but if. ecessary to the preservation of the
Union, he would overthrow slasiery altogeth

But Horatio Seymour says : If it is true,
as Grant says ; if it is true as Lincoln says;
tf it'is true, as the great body of the-Ameri
can people state" that slavery 'must be abol

I He then says: I wish .to stand before the

which embraces everything else."r And now
he proceeds to tell them whet todo. He saysi
"There is but one way to restore the Govern
moat and the Constitution, and that is for the
President elect to declare these" (meaning the'
reconstruction acts) "null and Vold, compel
the army to undo itadaireations iii the South;
disperse the carpet-bag State GovernmenN
and allow, the white wszplii to; reorganiai
their own gOvernments." Witatii this ? It is
that:the President shailldeclare all that has'
beeldone by Congress in the matter of re
construction null and void. He proposes that
the President Shall employ the army to undo
what has been done—that the army shall dis
perse these governments he calls f'carpet-beg,
governments"--that the Army shall if neces:
sary, wage,war upon , these governments ca-1
tablished under the authority elf Congress,
and-that everything shall be undone—that ,
these governments 8131111:be formed down there
by the "white people"—by which he means I
the "rebels." Now, he says that I is the great
question. Ho says he wants to go before the
convention on that question. Ile,did go be- I
fore the convention and was nominated with- I
out oppositions and the Democratic Conven
tion; in its platform, declares that these re-,
construction acts are null and void. And, if
the Democratic party carry out its pledges,
and -Seymour and Blair are elected,ithe army,
according to Idr. Blair, is to be employed to
undo what has been done. What does that
mean? What' slo e s the employment of the
army to disperse a government mean? Does
it not mean war ? Why did the ,rebels take
him ? Because by that act they hild the foun
dation of a revival of a civil war, and they ac

have all heard ofluombs. He was a Senator
from Georgia befere the secession. He was
in the rebel army a while during the war. He
made a speech on the Bth of July at Atlanta,
'reviewing ths nominative of Seymour, and
Blair. He tells the people there that General
Grant says that ho wants peace, but that he
can have no peace, rt.nd all over the South
from these men there is the same temper—
the same passioossummotredsgaio into active
life by the nomination of this ticket.
The whole currenctofthis country, as you
are aware, fellow-citizens, rests upon the pub
lie credit. Yon are aware that our circula
tion, our money, is made up now Of Treasury
and of the bills of those National Banks,
and that the bills of those banks are payable
in Treasury 'notes.- Yon ale Furthermore
aware that the booths of the Gov ernment are
the only security upon which thit whole mass
of circulation rests. You can see at once,
then, that Any act which terms to disturb the
public credit, which should lower your bonds
live, ten, or fifteen cents in the market, strikes
at the value of every dollar's worth of proper
ty within the entire limit of the ITnitedStates.
I will give yon an example of what I mean.
,
Don t you , recollect that at the beginning
of the war the emulative of onrl State banks
was secured by a depceit of State bonds? You
also recollect that the rebellion impaired the
credit of the State bonds, and that those State
banks disappeared like the mistsof the morn
ing. A slight depreciation in the value of the
securities blew up the whole system of the
banks then in force in the State. Anything
which affects the public credit, therefore,
strikes, asl have just said, at the value of
every dollars worth of property within the
limits of the whole country. Now you see, at
once, that it is a very delicate matter to inter
fere, to be tinkering with the finance& What
then shall we do! How shill we; dispose of
out debt? How doyen dispose of your own
debts, when you have them to pay ? Do you
go to work-to pay them by issuing i notes in
exchange for notes? Why, if you were to do ,
abet the best plan would be to have your
notes printed on buckskin so that they would
last forever. No ! Yoit, go to work and re.
duce your expenses to the smallest possible
amount consistent with the emit Prose- 1
cation of your business and the comfort of
your family. 3 That is ' -the first thing to be I
done. You husband your resources. If you
have a piece of laid. that was not under cul
tivation last year, and you have the force, you
etatisaie it this year. You increase your
earnings, and as fast as you get your mousy
you - apply It to the payment of your debts.- 1
Now can you contrive any better way et pay
ing the debt than the old fashioned way of
r paying individual debts? I tell yon now, my
fellow-citizens, that that man or that rmliti
elan who coma toyer' and tells yon that he
['has devilled some patent "ahem for paying_
debtswithent money, means to ettest you, if
ho has not been cheated by somebody bun
self. Now, that Is method of paying this

only thing which prevents the people from

as you rewiim these mean disturber* with
elections and honors. just an long will you be
compelled to pay six per cent, or more on
our borrowed money. Your fonds now sell
upon the markets fur less than seventy cents
upon the dollar. Why? It is because of these
rebels down South, and because the tonign
I nations are not sure they mean to submillo
the aers of Congress. It is beLnUSP the Detti:
°erotic party declares these acts of . Congress
unconstitutional and void. It Is because the
Democratic candidate for the Vice President
!cy says that the President must make the
army undo what it 'has done. It is because
we cannot give to the world any guarantee of
the future peace,of the country. It is because
pestifepus politicians •are allowed to talk
,
about' repudiation, about short methods .41
paying 'llebtiwithout money. 'That is the
reason you cannot borrow money at low rates,
• and you will be dnven In the end, my fellow
citizens, either to the payment of , enormous
interest, or you will be driven to repudiation
by this miserable. &honest policy. As re
gards this so-called Pendleton policy, there is
no Pendleton policy. It is a cheat: Pendle
ton says to Sea-inner, "You tickle me, and ru
tickle you. You talk hard money to the
bondholders down East, and I will talk repu
diation to the Democracy out West. I'-have
=
confidence In you, and you have con&
in me, and when we get the nomina
tions, these men in New York can talk about
the honesty of the Democratic party, and
these fellows at the West can talk about the
patent method of paying debts by bunting
painted rags In order- todiacharge them.
That is altthere is of it ;—a mere political
trick—a mete attemp: to cheat soinebod,:land
aqord these orators some means of insiriag
speeches. That is the whole aim and drift of
the Democratic platform.
Now I will get back again to what I under
stand to be the honest policy about this thing.
The moment the country Is assured of peace,
before these bonds become due, these repub
licensoisimsseents down South will twin full
force and prosperity. The public credit will
be The greenbacks will be at par.—
Issues will be made sufficient 0 Meal the
wants of the country. There wiaLleiak.dif
