The triumph of Tuesday was a full
clear and unequivocal endorsement ol
such seutimenta The Democracy true to
herself true to the Union true to thi
Constitution was tho verdict of tho pco
plo. Tho lame, miserable, uncalled for
attempt of political tricksters to cast a
blur ou tho party csoucheon and to brand
the narty with accession, disloyalty and
dishonor has proven an abortion. The
praty stands proudly for tho Union ono
and inseparable, now and lorcver.
As Domocrats, having in tho most un
qualified manner declared our position,
wo went into tho contest, lue sentiments
which havo auihoratively been declared
as the sentiments of tho party, are thoso
which wo claim to be judged by, and which
thc peoplo of this county, by their ballots,
havo commended. Wo owe our duty to
thc great Democratio party. Wo also owe
duty to tho Government. These cannot
conilict, if tho party is truo to its antece
dents ; but should they, then allegiance
to Government should destroy Party tics.
Democrats cannot forget that tho claims
of Government must not bo overlooked.
If treasuro and blood aro needed to sustain
the Government, thoy must bo provided;
and they will be, for all legitimate objects;
but wo havo tho mam, and it is our du
tv, to tee that the aims of the Govern
mcnt aro not perverted from legitimate
put poses.
In political contests so exciting as tho
one that has just closed, much is often
said and done that should not bo. It was
our aim to avoid doing cither. Most la
bored efforts were made from time to
.J .ihfi CoMsir- to timo lo torture our language into senti-
his usual inanity of tho mission of the re
publican party ; and among other matters,
makes tho passage of a Protective Tariff,
tho Morrill Bill, one of the duties ot us
mission. It says :
Thi3 war forced upon tho country makes'
a Protective Tariff doubly necessary, and
no Northern politician will dare raise his
voice against it.
Ti,n iniWnrn the Dr. would havo Ui
draw from all th'n flourish of truupcU !
about the taiiff is, that this tariffis to be
the salvation of the country, the sovereign
panacea for all tho financial ills the repub
lic is heir to, and that therefore we should
, all throw up our hats aud hurrah for tlio
' lato, now defunct republican party. Tho
' republican party has "fulfilled its mis3
ion,'' and liko the caterpillar is now hatch
I ing the perfect animal, which when devcl
I oped, will ho ABOLITIONIST. But for
' fear thc Dr. should grow crazy over his
'tariff egg, and cackle himself to death, we
'copy from tho Ntv Yoik World of Oct
1 10th, an article that knocks his tariff into
a cocked hat Read it, and tell U3 what
you think of Protective Tariff producing
only 20 milliOM, while under tlio ucrao
rrntio revenuo tariff thev ran as hi''h as
00 millions three times as mueh as Dr,
Johns pet machine for raising money.
Now what do you suppose is tho result
nf this financial fizzle ? Wo do not give
our own opinion wo give the Dr. good ro.
publioau authority and we say the result
is, another direct tax, iu addition to the
ones we havo already. I no tax win u
laid and must bo paid, but we relor to it
.'or tho nurnoso of showin" what a bcauti
... - i
'ul thing this republican party lias mane
of tho government.
It is timo tho patty died, went out, dis
bauded, or tho finger of scorn would bo '

receipts under it would reach sixty millions
but tho circumstances of tho country have
so changed sinco then that tho estimates
of that period aro valulcss now.
It is evident from this stato of things
that we aro about entering upon a new era
in tho financial history of tho country.
Hereafter direct taxation is inevitable, as
customs duties will be entirely inadequate to

will go fur to remove home of tlio Eject

notwithstanding most of them were ou mi

deservedly high at the Ponusylvanu bar,
