The Republican, m well as certain "Independent" papers, take special de light in pretending that the Derno • rats are continually "blundering." they keep their courage up all the year aiound by their shivering fun on this subject, and when the elections are over and their banners are trailing in the mud they hysterically proclaim I that the Democrats hnve agsio "blund ered" into victories. They play so continuously on this string, that even many Democrats themselves are partly persuaded that sucb is the fact. Hence let us see what kind of "blundering" the Democrats have been guilty of in only the last three or four years. They have held their own in the United States Senate ; They have changed the United States House of Kepresemttives from a Republican body of 12 majority, to n Democratic one of 77 majority; They have elected a Democratic governor in California in place of a : Republican ; They have elected a Democratic gov ernor in Colorado in place of a Repub lican $ They have elected a Democratic gov ernor in Connecticut in place of a Re publican ; They have elected a Democratic gov, ernor in Kansas in place of a Rcpubli | oan > They have elected a Democratic gov ernor in Michigan in place of a Rcpubli | can ; They have elected a Democrat gov ' ' ernor in Nevada in place of a Itepubli i can ; They have elected a Democratic gov ernor in New York in place of a Rep ; i üblican ; They have elected a Democrat gov ; ernor in Pennsylvania in place of a Re- ' publican ; They have elected a Democratic g,v ! ernor id Ohio in place of a Republi I J can - They have elected a Democratic gov ernor in Tennessee in place of a Re : publican ; Not to say anything of the election ! of Ruller in Massachusetts a yesr ago, and the sweeping Democratic victory ! in Virgins a few weeks ago, If this is "blundering ." the- Demo jcralsdo not need to be as much al. i irrned about it as the Republicans.

Rhode Island it is well known. ba not a republican form of government. | Its suffrage restrictions are the narrow ! est in the country. Under their Optra tDn, a forego born citiz-n, no m tiler bow long naturalised her of what worth cannot vole unless be owns teal estate worth f I >4 or with a yaily rental of |7 per annum. Thus it has happened ; that a gentleman who rose to the. rank 1 of brigadier general in the late war. by gallant service for his adopted country has been disfranchised by the loas ol j his property s men who have represen ted the state in Congress are disqualified | to vote through business misfortunes, and in one instance a man of wealth who loaned til his estate to the govern mqgitonits bonds, found that by this i set he had deprived himself of the privilege of franchise. The result ol this restriction is that the vote in Rhode Island is much smaller in propor tion to the population than in any other commonwealth in the country. ' In explanation of the perpetuation of. this system a prominent Republican politician of tbe state hss told a New j York reporter that it is duo to the fact that "Rhode Island ia not an agricultural state; it is full of factory em ployes who are mainly Irish. They are Democrats. Tbe abolition of our auf frago restriction would put us in the power of this class. Our great corpora, tions would be at their mercy There ia a refreshing frankness about this to say tbe least of it. It is tbe old doc trine of let bim take who has tbe power and lat him keep who can. Republi can rbariaees, who clamor about melh ods of political ostracism and exclusion in the .South, will do well to study the Rhode Island plain and aee what their party does to "keep solid ' one of its roost steadfast states. ZxtaOMfrr * Tho Now Sonator From Ohio. Henery It. Payne is about seventy years old. Before the war lie was s member of tbe Ohio State Henste. He went to the Charleston Convention as a Douglass Democrat. After the divsion ol the Democratic party he re mained a Union Democrrt. He wsa elected to (Congress in 187.1. from the Cleveland district, Over Richard C. Parsons, by s tmjorily of 2700, and ws the first Democrat ever elected from the Cleveland distiicl of the Western Reserve ia its history, every member from the organisation of that district down having been u Whig or a Republican. The district had he fore been good for 0000 Republican majority st any time of the year. Previously, however, in 1867, he had been nominated for governor, against Salmon P. Chase, who had just been renominated after one brilliant gu. bernntorisl term. Chase was iu the nobility of his personal beauty and j tslfpla, the leader lawyer of Cincinati, I s Payne was of Cleveland, and had a great city'a enthusiasm and a partic ular following on the Western reserve, tie bad received about 40,000 majority• By the energy of his canvass and the impression be made as a person ol safe conduct and high citizenship, Mr. Payne brought Chase's mjority down to 400 or 600, making the election so close that for two or three weeks the i issue was undecided. In Congress Mr. | j Payne was a resuniptionist. Interested ■in vast iron and steel enterprises. He ' jis a Protectionist. Iu an addieif de. ; livered one year ago he spoke earnestly j ; in favor of a tariir, both fortevenue and 1 protection. Mr. Payne is a very wealthy man > through his wife, who was the daughter !ol Oliver Perry, who owned a large i r portion of thesite of Cleveland. Hand ling this large home estate -a farm on thesiteof a city now of 160,000 inbnb. ilants Mr. Payne harl his attention lurne 1 to tl>a investment of its riven to s. He has, therefore been for mor-- than thirty years a financier ralh-r than a lawyer, seldom engaging in can >ea except iu aid of the poor, and then always a- a counsellor. The develop ment of the city of Cleveland became his avocation as its main property holder, and the derelopment of the city is largely due to him. lbs oldr-1 son. Nathan!'.

Should Ibis occur ! tbe Republicans cinnot go to tho mm try upon a well dehned issue for a high j tariir. which the chief men of the psrty think will be the best on which to j make the contest. Tbcy fesr that when the bill which my pass the House cotnes up that Aldrich, Dawes, Morrill and Hawley will not consent to kill it. j but will go into it with the intention of getting free wool for the benefit of the I New England woolen manufacturers, and frre dye stufD and machinery for , ' the cotton manufacturer*. Such an outcome of the matter would demora ; liie the party and smash ila issue for tbe Presidential campaign. Tho Currency Q-aent ion. Senator Sabin, tbe Republican na. lional committee chairman, wants the payment of tbe national debt to cease, and 60 years two cent bond to be iasurd to furnish a basis for the national bank currency, these institutions to be re lieved from the payment of tbe 000 per cent, tax and tbo bond* being there fore made to them equivalent to* three percent, investment. That plan will suit the banks. Chairman Buckner, of the House commitee, does not see the benefit ol continuing the debt for the sake of con tinuing tbe national banks. And when the debt is paid off be loea that the banks must cease to exist as national bank* by reason of there being no bonds lo serve a* tho needed guarantee for their circulation. Mr. Ruckner under these circumstance looks to an issue of treajurj notes directly by tbe lOvernmeat to lake the place of bank note* as currency. The interesting question for the peo pie is why tbe nation should pay two or three per cent, upon tbe paper cur rency it use* for the purpose of indue ing the banks to iasue it! The United States treasury always has specie In it# vault* to answer as a basin upon which to issue note* payable on demand in specie. Why then should it pay banks to iaue such notes 1 We certainly should not maintain a debt U) enable tbe national hank* to issue currency There may he reasons urging the non payment of the government bonds, but this ia not one of tbum, Treasury notes baaed on the coin in the treasury, redeemable on demand al the sub treasuries and mints, and not made a legal tender, will give us quite a- j good a psper currency aa that we have from the national Lanka and probably better in one regard at least ; tbe gov eminent would hardly keep in circula tion the filthy paper we now are cursed with, spro .ding infection in its path, hut would adopt the rule of the Bink ' ol England, which never reissues a pole when returned to it. This extravsg ance in new circulating pxpar is one t that the people will gladly pay for, tut j which banks that issue their circulation iforprofit only wilt never be guilty of | For this one sin agtinst the publ.c j sense and aalety, bank currency is worthy of condemnation.

The thick and thin Republican jour nals are uoing their utmost to make it appear that there are dissensions among the Democrat* in oongrea* on the tariff questi n. There i* unquestionably iao dlfferen- eot opinion among Drmocra lio congressmen a* to the extent to which fee proposed reduction of the tariff should be carried, but there is a substantial agreement among them that there ought to be a considerable redoc tion. A few favor a poetponemeot of the matter until next year, but these concede the necessity for a revision of the tariff. Until the committee of ways ant) means shall report a tariff bill to the bouae it will be impossible for even a I Republican editor to know whether or not the Democrats in congress will divide |on the question. The Republican jour nals are therefore just a little premature | n their declaration that there is a con tiict raging among the Democratic con grea>m>-n who differ, not in principle . but iri policy, on the subject tf the tariff. Those journals betray an anxiety in regard to this matter which shows that they have but little hope that tbeiv tail; be aide to win the piendi-nry from a united Democracy. The truth is that the Republican party is not by any means harmoniou* on the subjhct of tbe tariff. The brains of the party are on the side of the re venue reformers. The professors in the New England colleges, notable among them I'rofessors Sumner and Seelye. arc outspoken free traders. And yet tbr-so learned men are Republicans. Tbt leading Re| uhlican pulpiteers, who have been urcurtomed to presch politics, are of the me tsay of thinking. Tbo ablest Republican newspapers, at for example tbe New York Tk/ rets and the Chicago Tribune, are either earnestly opposing protection < r tabor ing outright for the establishment of freo trade principle*. Excepting this New York 'Tribune and tbe t'nicago IrUrr '' 'a :bere is no', a Republican journal of large circulation which advocate* protection fur tbe sake of protection. The tixiaii fry Republican newspaper* are therefore fain to console thrtnsel V( a with the hope that the Democrats wdl also diri !•; on the tsr.ff question and • hence the f refuse shedding cf ink tc prove that tbe Democratic congressmen are fight'ng over it before they hsro erer had an opportunity to compare note* upon it. -Hart ~s; u r,- f'alriut.
