61nbc. HUNTINGDON, PA. The Great Issues. from the New York Timer. 'The action of the Democracy has served one useful purpose. It has more distinctly defined the grounds which divide the parties, and has left no room for controversy as to the issues involved in the contestf between Grant and Seymour. Whether the mode and form of re construction are the best that might have been devised, is less a question for consideration than whether what has been done shall be maintained or reversed. We have got beyond the stage at which criticism of the details of measures, or even their principles, •might have been advantageously dis• cussed. The method is now obscured by the result. - A process in its nature rough has at least advanced us far to ward the complete restoration of the South to the Union. Several of the States are once more represented in Congress, and others will be before the-adjournment. Nearly the whole South is within sight of the goal which marks the cessation - of military rule, and' the re-establishment of local self government: - The question at issue is, whether What has been done Anil continue in operation, with a certainty that it. will gradually render pacification complete ; or whether it shall be violently over thrown, rights that have been confer red taken away, guarantees that have been provided, destroyed, and the con fusion and peril incident to a vital struggle renewed.. It is a question, on ono hand, of peace, with ample oppor tunities of adapting the now govern• meats to local circumstances andwants, and, en the other, of strifo and blood shed, with race arrayed against race, and the old spirit of the rebellion in direct hostility to the national authori ty. By upholding what Congress has done, and perfecting the application of the principles it has affirmed, and the measures -it has developed, we have the assurance that a brief period will obliterate remaining causes of difficul ty, and lay the foundation of an era of vast industrial progress and - prosperity. By breaking down, or by attempting to break down, the work of reconstruc tion, a struggle would bo provoked hardly less terrible than that which the loyal 'strength of the Republic put doWn. - There can be no disturbance ofreeonstruction, no invasion of the rights it has created or the principles of government it has developed, with out a contest leading to anarchy. Shall the Rebel element be reinves ted with. power to mould and control the South according to its pleasure? Or shall the loyal forces to which - the national Government has given shape and direction be watehed, and if neces sary aided, until their endurance be placed beyond doubt? These alterna tives make up the issue which the people of the country must decide. It is a elißieelietween - ordei and revo lution—between governments born of law and anarchy resulting from brute force; and the election of Grant or Seymour will indicate the national choice. Equally clear. is the line drawn be tween the parties on the subject of fi nance. Business interests suffer seri ously from the absence of a sound and steady financial system; and this - again, requires as an essential condi tion, intelligent and well-established confidence. A wise and just manage inent of the debt is the first step on the road to confidence; and the rela tive claims of the Republican and De mocratic parties rest upon their re spective purposes and principles. The Republican policy is to abate the burden of the debt by so steadfast ly promoting the public credit that the substitution of a -lower for a higher rate of interest shall be rendered fea sible. The Democratic policy is to lighten the load_by paying the debt in a de preciated currency instead of gold. It is a question, therefore, of good faith or repudiation—of national lion or national disgrace—of a confidence that will be felt in every department of trade, or a distrust that will para lyze - industry and engulf trade in bankruptcy. Andy Johnson- - Demooratio Ingrati- tude, 15. ant the New York Heald Andrew Johnson has been treated very shabbily by the Democracy—a great deal worse than John Tyler er Fillmore or anybody else that wo can remember. Whether true or not that i froM the moment he was sworn into the White House Mr. Johnson became a candidate for another term on the De mocratic tack, it is certain than ho has done more to keep the party in the field and to supply it with arms,ammu nition, rations, and clothing that any ten or ten thousand men who were stranded with McClellan - and Pendle ton on the Chicago peace platform.— Since the beginning of his conflict with Congress in Deeember, 1565, Mr. John son's policy, it is charged, has been di rected to three results—first, the re construction and restoration of the Rebel• States on the Johnson platform.; soden& the demoralization and reduc tion of a minority of the Republican party in the Northern Stutes ; and, thirdly, the employment of the John son States of the South as the balance . 40Epower with which to control the Democratic President-making Conven tion. Mr. Johnson says he has been all this time simply fighting for the Con stitution.. It. is enough to know, how ever, that since December, 1865, he has kept the Democratic party on its legs and made himself the recognized official embodiment of the Democratic principles, and that the party were thus placed under obligations to him, for which the Democratic nomination would have been the proper Niuivalent they could offer. Instead of this they pass him an empty vote of thanks ("Edo words. batter no parsnips") ,and they whistle him down the wind. He has thus learned at last the selfishness, greadiness,impudence, hypocrisy, in gratitude and treachery of party poli ticians. But he is at lust a free man. .13. e can now take his own course. He is thrown out of the Presidential fight of 1868, and that of 1872 is too far off for any calculation-of the preseht day. He is at liberty to brush away the hungry flies that have been buzzing their flatteries into his ears for some time past, and free to consider the pol- icy of a quiet time during the rem nant of his official term. He ought to have known from the first that the Democratic politicians wanted a Pre sidential candidate upon whom they look as their servant and not as their master. - READ QUARTERS FOB NEW GOODS.
