THE ARGUMENTS OF A GERMAN REPUB
To the Editor of The Phila. Press
Sat : Allow me to publish, through your
respected paper, a few arguments, and let
zne entitle the first :
IItISUMEN VOTING TILE DEMOCRATIC TICKET
ARE TRAITORS TO THEIR NATIVE COUN
TRY.
We all know that Democrats speak
against our present high tariff. The cher
ished principles of Democracy are either
free trade, or at least a * moderate tariff.
But, according to the official Custom-house
reports of last year, we have sent about
. $400,000,000 in gold to Europe for im
ports, and the money chiefly went to En
gland. -
If our tariff were lower, say half, the
rate of importing would be higher, and
consequently we would send 600 to 800
millions dollars in gold to England.
Consider now, that these 400
,millions
of dollars in American gold are sent out of
this country, they flow directly into the
pockets of English manufacturers.
English manufacturese pay their taxes
into the English treasury.
The English treasury builds with this tax
men-of-war and sustain the army.
And ships and soldiers, and the whole
paraphenalia of government are the in
struments to oppress Ireland.
Every Democratic vote, therefore, are
- so many pounds and shillings into the En..
glish treasury to sustain an army for the
oppression of Ireland, and every Irishman
accordingly, who votes the Democratic
ticket, commits a treacherous act against
his home country.
The second of these arguments is for the
mechanic, and I entitle it :
EVERY I‘IF,CUANIC WLIO IS AGAINST NEGRO
SUFFRAGE IS AGAINST HIS OWN POCKET
INTEREST.
The average wages in Europe are fifty
cents per day of twelve to fourteen hours
working time. The average wages in this
country are about $2,50 per day for eight
or ten hours working time.
• It is, therefore, self-evident that our
mechanics must be protected against Eu•
ropean hunger wages.
But if we have protection against
European wages, what will protect us
from negro labor, if we give the negro in
to the hands of Southern capitalists?
Let every mechanic suppose that suf
frage were taken from him and given only
to those who own property. How long
would it take before laws would be enacted
against the interests of our laboring clas
ses ? Strikes would be made criminal ; a
law would be made to force the working
men to work ; the eight-hours law would
be abrogated, and the wages pretty soon
would be forced down. •
The labor interest of the whole country
are forming in battle array, if I may use
that expression ; the capital interest, and
equal suffrage is the weapon which bal
ances the power of each; -and so delicately
is this balance poised that one single - vote
suffices to give to capital or to labor an
ascendancy.
At the South there are no laborers ex
cept negroes. It has been the policy of
the slave-breeders never to admit the im
migration of white mechanics, and conse
quently the labor interest at present has
no other representatives at the South
than negroes.
If we allow that the white capitalists
can rule over the negroes s.t. the South,
and prescribe laws, we admit that the
capital at tlie South stands higher than
labor; and we further admit that the ne
gro can be forced to work under the con
ditions the capitalists lay down. Fifty
cents wages per day of twelve hours will
be considered as a boon saving the black
laborer from starvation ; the negro will
take the place of the European mechanic,
and our mechanics' Wages will be. under
bid.
We cannot protect ourselves by means
of a tariff in this case, but still we need
protection. We cannot admit that our
manufactories shut up to open at the South
with cheaply paid negro laborers, and we,
to protect ourselves must demand that the
negro receives the same wages as we do.
And we can guarantee him these wages
only by giving him the same power to re-

LICAN.
sist the encroachments of capital as we
have, and that is simply to give him equal
suffrage as we possess.
If the mechanics are in battle array
against capital (a figure of speech the me
chanics are fond of) the East is the right
wing, we are the centre, and the negro
South is the left wing. If we allow our
left wing to be crushed, the whole battle
line will be rolled up, and the laboring
interests will be defeated most mercilessly.
Negro suffrage is a good policy with the
Northern mechanics. If the Northernme
chanic doesnot give suffrage to the negro the
latter will be forced to work cheap, and the
wages of all the mechanics in this country
will certainly be undersold.

form has been confirmed by recent ad.
vices from Paris. The New York Times
correspondent at Paris, under date of
September 4th says ; "He thinks Mr.

faith, equally unjustifiable and disgraceful
to us as a nation."
WASHINGTON fought and won the battles

second War for Independence, and was
made President. Taylor fought and won
our battles in the war with Mexico, and
was made President. Grant fought and
won our battles in the overthrow of the

he be made an exception to the rule ?
lie won't be !
"Honesty is the best policy." This is
good as far as it goes, but it don't go a
groat ways row-a-days.
TIMES PAST AND PRESENT
The Democrats continue to harp on the
declaration that farmers, mechanics and.
laborers are taxed, directly or indirectly
—in short with such grievous burdens that
poverty is staring nine-tenths of these
classes in the face. There may be some
silly people who have persuaded themselves
that this copperhead falsehood has at least
a shade of existence, but as we have gen
erally supposed there is intelligence and
common sense enough in a majority of our
people to know better, we have seldom
deemed it necessary to reply to such idle
gasconade. We now propose to give a few
facts, from which every one can draw his
own conclusions.
First, we refer to the U. S. assessor's
list for proof that hardly one farmer in
ten pays a direct tax.
Second, the value of lands has of late
years increased from 50 to 150 per cent.
Third; this increase was caused by the
demand for produce, which stimulated
cultivation, and in consequence every far
mer who worked and managed well made
more money under republican rule than he
ever did before. The market quotations
for some of the "happy" years when prices
were low and laboring men on an average
had not more than three or four days in a
week the year round at from 60 to 80 cents
a day, were as follows :
Sep t• 10, Sept. 10,
1852. 1857.
White wheat, ....90 100a125
Red 85 100a115
Rye - 65 70
Oats 28 60
Corn 62 70
Butter.. j 121 15
Eggs 10 12
On Sept. 10, 1857, extra flour was sel
ling at $8 per barrel, and at same date in
1855 at $5. The cheapest sugar fit for use
at that time was selling at 8 cents, the best
at 14 a 16, and occasionally the scrapings
of molasses hogsheads at 4a5 cents, and
considering its iampness dear at that. In
1852 a bushel of red wheat would buy less
than 11 lbs. of 8 cent sugar; now a bushel
of red wheat will buy 14 lbs of fine light
brown, as good as was ever set on a tables
or more than 18 lbs. of 111 cent sugar,
about as good as the 8 cent of 1852. Then
a pound of butter bought I. pounds sugar,
now a pound will buy between 2 and 3 of
best light brown. Almost every other
article raised by the farmer is to-day
worth from 50 to 300 per cent. -more than
under Pierce or Buchanan, and more than
compensates him for all the advance in
wages and articles of use. Iron is but lit-
tie higher than then, and even coffee, which
is now as high where it is raised as it
formerly sold for in this country, is in fa
vor of the firmer. Then too there was
much produce sold on credit, now he can
command ready money for every article
down to fallen apples' which he formerly
left lay to rot, or fed to his hogs. Where
then is the burden of his taxation, either
direct or indirect, for in addition to the
benefits he has enjoyed, the republican
party some years ago released that class
from State taxation, so far as real estate is
concerned, so that his taxes arc actually
less than in the days of low prides. That
tax copperheadism is bound to restore, or
their platform is a lie.
Has the mechanic a plausible cause of
complaint? His wages are good, employ ,
ment can be had in almost every branch of
business, and hundreds have of late years
acquired homes,w4ile others are' growing
rich.
Has thelaborer a plausible cause for
complaint ! No steady and faithful man
need be out of employment, and wages are
from 50 to 120 par cent. better than in the
palmy democratic days of low prices, losv-
wages and little work
Tho principal articles affected by taxes
are tobacco, whiskey, silks, satins, &c.,
all luxuries, which do not contribute ' one
Particle to the necessities of a family, but
to many are a source of misery and pover
ty.
Were gold the standard to-day, and not
a cent of taxes be levied, flour would be
worth $lO per barrel, butter and' eggs
would not be a penny cheaper, nor meat,
because there is no tax•on these articles.

YOUNG MEN!
Who are about, casting your first votes,
do you ever read History ?
If you do, how can you vote for Seymour
and Blair ?
Their sentiments are preeisel.y the same
as those held by the father of the late re
bellion, John C. Calhoun. •
Consequently had you lived in the days
of General Jaekson,.you would have been
a rlllifter.
Had- you lived iu . the days of the revo
lution what would you have been ?
To be a Democrat, you must advocato
democratic principles. - The first of these
principles is that a majority of the people,
shall rule; and second, that Congress
represents the people.
In neither of these doctrines do the
present leaders of the party, which styles
itself democratic, believe.
Seymour for the sake of slavery was wii_
ling that the Union should be destroyed.
Blair, more unscrupulous still, talks of
playing the despot and tyrant, and de
stroying Congress by the aid of an army.
There is besides other food for refletion
Ask yourself how it conies that nearly
every rebel now calls himself a Democrat.
Alexander" li. Stevens in itis late work'
justified secession, and makes no acknowl
edgeteent of having done wrong.
The rebel General Lee but three weeks
ago talked of the "just right" of the
South', and has never acknowledged to have
done wrong, although he with thousan ad
of others not only perjured himself in law
but became a murdering traitor to the
Union. Re too calls himself a democrat.
Do you want to be one of the number ?
Seymour does not believe in coercion.
• Restore tho rebels to power, and if they
again secede, What will seymour do ?
Remember what Buchanan did and you
have the answer.
So far as arms are concerned, the rebel
lion is at present over, but give them
courage and hope by electing copperheads
to office, and ere ten years go round there
will be another disastrous war, or the great
North and West will have to acknowledge
that their people are but mud-sills and
small-fisted farmers when compared with
the leading nigger-breeding Southern gen
tlemen.

crat, stands high in the estimation of the
