The position of tbe Democrats on
the question of bard or soft money if
well illustrated by a story told by
Governor Vance about an old publi
aa in t-e "Old North State" who
tad Buffered much from tbe raids ot
both parties, and came to tbe con
elusion ikat the safest way was to
play neutral. One day his bouse
was filled with Federal soldiers, and

would willingly etay wbere tbey are
but real freedom and equality is prac
tically denied tbem, and tbey a ill go
wber thev are welcome to all tbe
xigbte riven tbem by the Constito
lion and the amendments.
Tbe news from Gbio and other
Stave elections bas changed tbe tune
of the Southern Brigadiers in Con
gress, and an attempt is now made
fcy Beck and other braggadocios to
take back and deny their threats to
xoeree the President into measures
bv etarviurthe Government, but the
Southern fire-eating editors have not
jet received their cue and, according
iy, the Mobile Register warns Tresi
.dsnt Hayes that if he persists in his
determination to veto Democratic
measures "it may be necessary for
Congress to consider very seriously
whether it is not in order to call op
from ibe table of the House that reso
lution watch was not acted upon oo
the 81 of March, 1877, to tbe effect
tbat Samuel J. Tildeu was elected
President of the United States."
We supplement tbe great speech
of Mr. Garfield, pabtisbed last week,
by the able and ringing exposure of
the false pretenses of tbe Democracy
made by Mr. Blaine in tbe Senate on
Monday of last week. These two
peecbe. taken together, fitly and
thoroughly eel forth the Republican
view of tie battle now being made
for pure and free elections.
This vivid, thrilling speech of Mr
Blstoe most electrify all wbo ever
fceld u the Republican faitb, particu
larly in ite passages referring to the
martyred Lincoln, while its pungent
exposure of tbe (alas issue attempted
to be raised by tbe Deaaocrats must
cover tbeca with endless ridicule.
The idea of sixty soldiers on the
average to a million of people intimi
dating and overaweiag item, is,
when exposed Ly tbe figures taken
from tbe records, man, exquisitely
absurd.
Tbe ntter falseness of the Demo-
cratfc pretext for repealing tbe laws
as tbf jiow etand, and of which no! in
-one has iazretofore complained, are
Qtaown asdiuk of all eensible men,
but tiie way in wtich Mr. Blaine
howa ap tbe fraud, is per uliarly his
owa. He atrips tbe cloak froxn their
(political deformity, and exposes It as
aecoH ana laugmog syica to ice
country. It is not to be wondered i
tt, that the Democratic charlatans
rage and bowl over tbe exposure and
the scourging be aabjecta them to.

prospect shead tbe country may as
well mske op its mind to two years
more of djubi and uncertainty, and a
consequent continuance of business

there is a likelihood from the action
of tbe Democratic caucus, that gener
