Wholmome Truth.
The State Guard, the organ of Gov.
Geary, is responsible for the following
truthful portrait of tho liadicnl party,
its loaders and purposes. '"Whither
are we drifting as a political organi
sation" is tho thomo, and r.pon it tho
Guard discourses as follows i
"However mnch we may be inclined,
as an organ of ltepubiicanism, to con
ceal the imperfections which show
themselves in ours, as they dot in all
political organizations, tho great mass
of the people cannot bo deceived that
while one class of .Republicans are sin
cerely devoting themselves to the fair
advocacy of their principles, thoro is
anothor class who are utterly indiffor
out to anything lileo principle who
do not regard our organisation at.
worthy of consideration, beyond tho
means which it affords to gratify their
ambition, and who are as ready to
strike at oar candidates when it suits
their interests, as they are to fight our
avowed enemies. Taken ail together,
we, as a party, have the largest and the
dirtiest loads to carry that were ever
strapped on the backs of any political
organisatitm. It is our duly to defend
and uphold the national credit; to
securo the interest on the national
debt; to advocate the rigid collection
of tbe national taxation ; enforce laws
enacted to punish truitors, and to en
sure the rights of all men who fought
to save the country from destruction.
Tho burdens of the war are the issues
which the Republican party mast sus
tain. II en co it is that wo have a load
to carry, and in order that we may
succeed at the polls, we should have
the energy, the integrity, and the dis
interested efforts of nil men claiming
to be Republicans. We should haw
sacrifices of all porsonal differences,
and a Union upon our principles.
This, we are sorry to say, we have not.
Clfquo-rule in the Republican party is
as tyrannical and as unrelenting In
its hate as traitors hated the Republi
can principles. There is more corruption
to-day, to' attain favor in the gift of the
Republican party thandisgraccd the war.
to obtain contracts by vhich frauds on
the Government were perpetrated.' It is
our duty to toll our fnonds these things.
It well becomes a Republican organ
to warn the masses of tho party
agninBt the woe which threatens us,
and unltss those masses promptly open
their eyes and their ears to the actions
and proceedings of the miserable men
who are plotting our disgrace, we will
be defeated in October and utterly ruin
ed in the Mate in AmvmW. w Aa
clare it coldly ana without Uio fear
of successful contradiction (however
much we may be abused for the declar
ation) that while one set of men in
tho Republican orgnniration are delib
erately arranging to buy the election of.
United StaUs tenator, another U at
work secretly to defeat the election of a
Republican, to that in the event of
Grant's election the patronage belonging
to this State may be monopolized by a
certain clique of our organization. In
regard to the purchase of this election
then is no attempt made at concealment.
ThoKo who proposo to do so, declare
they have had a precedent on the sub
ject, that they know how it was pur
chased before, what it costs to do so,
and how little the people seem to care
about such corruption in public men.
We do not hesitate to say that the
Republican party cannot exist and
have tmch talk publicly made in refer
ence to its leaders. It must be rebuked
in somo public manner, or the mass of
sicn who aro honest will not remain
attached to our organization. The
Republican organs of tho Stato munt
do this talking. It is better to win
the victory while denouncing tbo evils
which we know to exist in our midst,
than deploro defeat by secretly attri
buting it to tho bud men we wore afraid
openly to denounce." .

There is probably no creator anom
aly in modern times than is seen in
this country: that a people nuder a
popular republican government a
government chosen by themselves and
changed every few years should sub
mit to a burden ot taxation without
parallel in the world. That they sub
mitted to this cheerfully in time of fc
great oivil war for the suke of preserv
ing tho life BDd unity of the republic
showed thoir patriotism. They were
willing, too, to give the govcrnrnont
a reasonable time to adjunt tbe finan
ces and to discharge Urn floating obli
gations arising from tho war. , But is
it likely thoy will contiuc'to bear war
.tiixea, uud -cxpeuditures yws af,or
puaco has boon established 't Over
three years have elapsed sinco the
war ended, and tbe taxes amount to
more than four hundred and sixty
millions of dollars a year s larger
sum than that raised and expended
by the most costly monarchical gov
ernment in tbe world. It is monstrous.
Tho people are becoming restless and
disgusted, and will certainly aeek a
remedy either in a change of their
public servants or in repudiation of
tbe debt. V uless abler aud more hon
est men be elected to Congress men
who will soo tbe necessity of eoouomy
and bave tbo courage to cut down all
unnecessary expenditure and. bring
them to something like what they
were before the war it will not be
long bo ft) re they shall bear significant
and deep mutlerings of repudiation
from ono end of tbe country to tbe
other. y . . i ,7
Tho present Cougress is without
ability to grasp tho subject of naiional
finance and taxation, and ia withal
reckleshly extravagant in making ap
propriations for all sorts of things and
jobs. Even when it took oil about a
hundred millions of taxation, this was
dono for the benefit of manufacturers,
and for the manufacturers of New Eng
land especially, who aro but a small
part of the community. Tbo people
generally will not feci the reduction.
Ike effect will be merely to increase
the profits of tho manufacturers. Had
tho tax on tea, coffee, sugar and other
articles of prime necessity and gener
al use among the laboring clauses been
greatly reduced or abolished, the peo-
plo everywhere would nave been bun
fitted. That would have boen lessen-
ng tho burden of taxation in a way to
be folt by every working man's family.
Tint t.hn Intn ftnf rVingmraa vrHlucinc
taxes will bo vf Atlvautogo etily a
few manufacturers. Congress began
at tho wrong end. It is of no use,
however, to roauco taxes wniie tne
expenditures aro ao enormous, for
that will only bring a depleted Treas
ury nnd bankrupt government. Tho
first thing to bo done is to rednce the
expenditures two hundred millions or
more. The wuoio cost 01 tne govern
ment Id all departments and expenses,
independent of tho interest on tbe na
tional, debt, ought not to be over a
hundred millions a year. Indeed It
ought to be loss. Two hundred and
fifty millions revenue is implo. let
wo see it was over four hundred and
sixty millions last year. Thia is the
great question for the American peo
ple now to consider. And in the
coming Congressional elections they
should take caro that the incapable,
reckless and extravagant members of
Congress may be loll at nome to cul
tivate potatoes, which they may un
derstand better, and that fresh and
mora capablo men be sent to Wash

It will be scon that Mr. Jordan fully
recognizes the binding foreo of the
decision of the Supremo Court, so far
as it relatos to all who have heretofore
been doniod the right to vote on the

wore "triod by Court Martial." Of

So, undor the interpretation of tiie

now bo douied the right to vote on a

that he was "tried by Court Martial"
for desertion, onif convicted. This re

We heard the following good foke
related yesterday of a member of the
Pendleton club, of Cincinnati, at tbe
New York Convention. It appears
that he could not go with the club
when it started, bat followed it a day
or two afterward. Reaching tho city
in the night, and perferring lo go to
a hotel rather than hunt up the head
quarters of tho Club at ttat late hour,
he made his way to an np town hotel
Of course it was crowded. ' But what
seemed a wonder, there was one room
unoccupied. To that tho tired Cincin
natian was assigned, and was soon
rr.ari'haiod away thither by a boll boy.
He was not a little dismayed to find
lbs room to be about sight by ten
feet, with a small window fronting on
an nnfnlhomablc alley, its depths made
vocal by a battalion of tomcats, and
redolent with unnumbered smells,
lie at once objected to sach quarters,
and dispatched the bell boy after the
clerk, who soon made his appearance.
""See here," said the Cinuinnuiian,
"do yon expect me to stay in this
place all nignir
Theclerk assured him that, in conse
quence of the crowded condition of
the hotel, no bettor accommodation,
could be afforded bim, although it
would bo a great pleasure on his part
to give him the bant room in the
houso. "And," added the clerk, by
way of a clinching- argument, "Gen..
Grant slept in this room onoe when
hs visited the city." " '
The gentloman from Porkoplis said
be didn't oare a continental as to that,
hut if Gen. Grant oosld stand it be
supposed he could.
Theclerk returned to the oflie,
complimenting himself upon bis strat
egy. Tho gnest retired to bis bed,
and in fire minutes he whs attacked
by Oountless host of bed bugs. Find
ing it useless to contend Si'sinat such
overwhelming numbers, he ' hastily
attired himself and sought th office

There never was, in all the history
of American politics, go complete a
stampede of loading men from ono
party to the other, as is this of Radi
cals to Seymour and Blair. It has
amazed aud confounded the support
ers Of Grant, and tbey aro unable to
rally, even in their stronghold!!. Wo

He said that what he saw and heard
in the South bad entirely cured him
of Radicalism, and be now wished to
see Grant defeated and the party auni-
tuiaied. lie said that he had always
been opposed to the principle of negro
suff rage, but when be saw the great
masses of intelligent whita men of
Tennessee disfranchised, and ignorant
negroes voting, it completely disgusted
hira with his party, and be wi' Led

XuBCR.f, N. Y. The Democrats of
Auburn, N, Y., held a meeting last
Monday night. Many Democrats and
every Republican proscnt were sur
prised to near a speech from General
George D. Robinson. Tho General
has heretofore been an extreme Radi
cal, and has stumpSd Cayoga county
in behalf of the Republican cause.
General R. is nn educated man, of
strong reasoning powers, fearless in
tho expression of his sentiments and
always ready to give a reason for his
fuith. He entered the Seventy-fifth
regiment of New York Stato volun
teers as a privato, and worked his way
to tbo rank of Brevet Brigadier Gon
erul. ' He is lame now, from the effects
of wounds received in the wsr. He
was a delegate to ths liadical Soldiers'
publicans; but now they turn their
backs upon him, as they find he is of
no use to them. Tbo General was
made a convert to Democracy by liv
ing in Florida, whoro he has boon for
the post eighteen months, and has had
the acts of tho carpet-baggors daily
before his eyes. Albany Argus.

J. M. Boirell, Esq., who had been
olcclcd Secretary of tho Grant club
at that pines, signed tho roll of the
Democratic club, renounced all connec
tion with the "loil" black republican 1
party, and made an eloquent speech
in fuvor of the election of Seymour
and Blair. . Many other changes have
occurred in Media. Uonest men are
"coming out from a foul party" all
over the State, and in October there
will be a general stampede. The
doors are still open.
