Wo havo lierctoforo on Bovernl occih
Ions called attention to tlio subject of
reform In tho making of nominations,
find havo recommended that such
changes should bo mado In our Dclo
gato system tvs would mako It moro Just
in character nnd satisfactory in opera
tion. Every year, every successlvo con
vention, convlncos us moro and nioro
of tho necessity of reform nnd our senso
of duty to tho public impels us to ox-
press that conviction and to point out
thoso remedial changes Which, In our
opinion, will bo found upon trial to be
most effectual and salutary.
Tho two main objects to bo secured
by amendment of our rules of tiomina
tlon aro ovldontly tho'ibllowifig:
1. Tho representation of our election
districts in Convention in proportion to
their democratic vote; and
i. tho representation (as nearly as
may bo) of all thovotcrswho tako patt
in the primary elections.
Neither of theso objects Is secured by
our present dolegato system which must
therefore bo characterized as imperfect
and unjust. A district with 00 voters
lias tho sarao number of delegates and
tho samo power in convention as ono
of 250; and whenever thero is sv contest
in a district and the people aro divided
iti their preferences between candidates,
apart of them only can obtain repre
sentation and tho rest aro virtually clis-
iranchlsed. Proportional representation
of districts in connection with tho Free
Vote will remedy theso ovils, reduce
tho oxpenso of elections and sccuro moro
of harmony in party action. But for
Ucliberato and intelligent changes in
thorules which regulnto nominations
wo supposo wo must look to a special
Convention to bo called to tako them
into consideration, inasmuch as ordi
nary conventions aro too much occu
pied with tho making of nominations
to consider fully or properly tho sub
ject of reform. Wo hopo that such n
Convention will bo called at somo con
venient time during tho present year,
and wo beliovo that thero is interest
enough felt in tho subject of reform to
secure a full Convention and wise and
proper changes.
The Proof.
A short timo sinco wo staled that tho
words " without defalcation " in a noto,
according to a decision of Radical au
thorities required an additional flvo
cents stamp. Tho absurdity of such an
mca was sucn mat our business men
hooted at tho idea, and censured us for
circulating such a statement. They
properly urged that, if tho addition of
thoso words mado tho note stampablo,
tho clauses "for vaiuo received," and
"with interest" would havo tho samo
effect. Wo admit that such would bo
tho case, and if somo zealous Itepuhli
can will only writo to tho Bovenuo De
partment at Washington, making tho
proper inquiries wo havo no doubt that
decisions to that effect will bo promptly
given. Whether just orunjust, legal or
illegal, tho decisions aro always In favor
of increased taxation. Wo beliovo that
all our bankable notc3 contain tho words
"without defalcation," and yet aro pos
itive that nonoof them aroovcrstamped
ns agreements. Wo do not mean to in
sinuate that tho officers and directors of
our banks havo over wilfully violated
tho law j but like poor Billmeyer and
thousands of others, they did not and
could not fathom tho Inscrulablo myste
ries of tho Internal Rovenuo Bureau.
A Democratic Congress is tho remedy
for such absurdities.
Below wo givo tho text of this ridic
ulous decision :

"The Republican County Convention

So It would seem that, oven in tho

XVXoro Victories.
For tho past four years tho bulk of
Congressional legislation has been to
rotain power in tho Southern Slates.
In order to accomplish this tho most
unscrupulous means havo been used.
Democrats whoo majorities wcro
among tho thousands, havo beon turn
ed out wholo Htato delegations refus
ed admission when their opinions tllsa-'
greed with thoso of tho majority, nnd
nu amendment to tho Constitution
passed, giving negroes suffrago under
tho belief that tho Loyal Leagues could
control their votes. Georgia, recon
structed on n loyal basis, lias been de
nied representation becnuso slio subse
quently turned Democratic, and now
slio does not know whether sho is out
or in tho Union, and many wlso Radi
cal Congressmen aro arguing that tho
term of tho Governor nnd Legislature
should bo extended a year or two bo-
causo they aro Radical, and u now elec
tion would result In favor of tho Dem
ocrats.
In North Carolina, which was carried
for Grant by over 8000 majority, tho
party determined to perpetuato Its pow
er by proclaiming martial law In sever
al Democratic Counties, nrrestlng con
servative citizens by imported hire
lings, and, to crown all, had the United
stales troops ordered in to assist Hoi
den in completing thoso outrages, and
defying tho Courts.
But tho load has beon too heavy and
tho people of North Carolina havo
achieved ti magnificent victory, despite
all tho obstacles in tholr way. Carrying
tho Lcislaluro means a gain of a U. S.
Senator j and from present returns wo
hayo llvoout of thosoven Congressmen.
In Kentucky, notwithstanding tho
heavy negro voto, wo havo triumphed
by 00,000 majority !
Our success is equally signal in Ton
nesseo.
Thus State after Statu is being loosed
from Radical grasp, nnd It only remains
for us in Pennsylvania to bo equally
steadfast mid diligent to accomplish suc
cess. To tho Young- Democracy.
In every district of tho county there
aro somo young Democrats of superior
intolligcnco who might, if they choo3e,
scud us occasional communications on
tho leading events in their localities.
Tho remarks of an oxchango upon this
subject aro so appropriate that wo trans
fer them toourcolumns. "Many young
Democrats, probably,havo often thought
of corresponding for our paper, out havo
been deterred by tho fear that their let
ters would not bo acceptable. Wo feel
liko encouraging this clsi33 of our read
ers, and now extend to tliem a cordial
invitation to contribute to tho columns
of our paper. Novcrmlnd,if your letters
aro not exactly in ship shape; all writers
havo to practico long and pationtly bo-
foro they becomo perfect, and, besides,
wo will tako care that they aro put in
proper trim, if necessary, beforo tiioy
appear in print. Tho exerciso will bo
a good ono for your mind ; you will bo
acquiring a correct idea of tho uso of
word ; it will afford you pleasure to sco
your productions In type, and bo help
ing, at tho samo time, to increaso tho
interest of your county paper. Many
of tho bast editors of tho country com
menced their careers by just such con
tributions to their homo paper as wo
propose. Democratic fathors who havo
boys with a tasto for writing cannot do
a hotter thing than to encourago them
in tho practico of writing occasionally
for tho columns of tho local papers."
How Outrageously Wo Arc Xazcd.
Tho financial editor of the Phlladel
phia Ledger says :
Heavy taxes aro having their fruits
at tho South, and will havo them hero.
Tho samo seed bears tho same fruit ev
erywhere. Liko a vilo weed overrun
ning tho fruits of sturdy toil they must
bo extirpated, ero labor meets its full
nnd just reward. Tho peoplo of tho
South aro represented to bo very much
in debt, notwithstanding the largo cot
ton crop of 18G9, and tho high price re
alized for it. Considerable distress is re
ported to prevail in South Carolina.
Ono-tcnth of tho wholo area of land in
Falrfleld county, and one-sixth of all in
Williamsburg county, is advertised to
bo sold for taxes Stato and county. Tho
taxes aro now very much greater than
over beforo, whllo tho Stato debt has
been Increased nino millions in two
years. Under such circumstances it is
not to bo wondered that tho peoplo aro
unusually poor, nor that they aro deeply
interested in tho war In Europo, on ac
count of tho fact that it may depreciato
tho prico of cotton. Ato not tho North
crn, Middlo, and Western States suffer
ing tho samo ovil of heavy taxes and
rapldlyincreasing debts by cities and by
companies;' Look at tho growing debt
or Philadelphia, on a credit weakened
by virtual repudiation, and tho huge
ticDts of nil our railroad and canal com
panics.

Wo havo recotved i lottcr from n sub-

we take the following extracts:

will select their candidate for Congress
in tho October election. It may bo well
to clanco backward and noto tho result
of former campaigns slnco thoorganlza-

In the caninalan of 18R2. tho candi
dates wcro Henry W. Tracy. Indepen
dent Republican and supported by the
Democrats, tncy malting no nomina
tion, nnd Robert F. Clark, who was
placed upon tho t'eket ten days pro
vlous to tlio election. Mr. Clark's do
feat at tills timo was caused solely by
tho disaffection In tho Republican ranks
caused by tho nomination of Geo. Lan
don by tlio unfalrnesi of tho Conven
tion which gnvo him tlio nomination
over Mr. Tracy. His, Tracy's, majority
was 1,817.
vo next como to tno campaign oi
mi. Col. V. 13. Plolett, bchiK tho
Democratic candidate, nnd Ulysses
Mercur tho Radical candidate This elec
tion occurred during tho Presidential
canvass between McClellan and Lin
coln. Tho military wcro sent Into Col
umbia county and many of her peace
ful citizens wcro arrested, and sent to
Fort Mlfiltn for no other crlmo under
Heaven than that of voting tho Demo
cratic ticket. It was said in that cam
paign beforo any arrests woro made.
"No danger of Piolctt's being olected,
thoy ain't going to allow tho Democrats
to voto in Columbia county, but with
nil theso outrages on quiet citizens, nnd
Provost Marshal's officers in ovoty

or a Dastllo nt tho "tinkling of a llttlo
bell," not unlike Seward's, and tho
army voto nil counted for Mercur, yet
Colouel Piolett was defeated by only
1001 majority.
In tho campaign of 1SG3, lion. Wm.
Elwcll, Democrat, was defeated by
Ulysses Mercur, Radical, by a majority
of 1,298.
In 1808, tho year of tho last Presiden
tial campaign, tho candidates were Col.
Plolett, Democrat, aud Ulysses Mercur,
Radical; in this canvass Col. Plolett
fought at every disadvantage. Thous
ands cf dollar. wcro brought into tho
Stato and scattered into ovcry Congress

was brought into requisition aud his

Wo havo thus far traced tlio flcurcs
of tho Congressional contests during tho

Wo invito our readers, and tho wholo
country, to compare tho expenditures
for tlio two ycare 18G0-G1 and 18G9-70 re
spectively. It will thu3 bo seen that
our rulers expended during the last two
years of profound pecao $G13,C03,SG7.00.
From this must bo deducted in round
numbers nbout two hundred and forty
million dollars as Interest on tho debt
during tlio two years, which leaves
5373,003,807 oxpended in carrying on
tho government. From this, another
deduction of about forty millions for
pensions during tho two years must be
made, which tho lato war entailod, and
tho balanco will be found to bo $333,003,
807. Tho total amount expended in tho
two years of 1850-01 was 129,075,910.
From tills must bo deducted, for inter
est paid in tho two years viz.,$3,177,3M
in 1SG0, nnd $1,000,173 in 187157,177,
187; which will leave a balanco of $122.
499,429 expended to carry on tho gov
ernment during tho aforesaid two
years of 1S00-G1. Now, Wo havo In
creased during these ten yea'r3,or'ratIier

which, If added to tho $122,199,129 (bo
ing 52 1,499,885,) amounts in a sum to
tal of $110,099,314.
But tho party in power havo oxpend
ed, after giving them credit for tho ox
tra interest on tho debt, pension, nnd a
fifth increase for tlio increase of popu
lation, $333,003,807 ngalnst 5110,099,311;
or, In other words, for every dollar ex
pended, exclusive of interest and ;ie)
