During the past tight years the

accomplishment cf their long cher

es were delivered, which was tV.c
cause of some remark, f r ihe f net
is well known that there are a num
ber of able Democratic sneakers in
town, that have ever ben ready
to speak for the- smallest of demon
titrations. Did the speakers feel the
barrenness of thtir position, did their
tne' s shake with trembling at the
mere suggestion of a speech under
th-3 changed circumstances of the po
ii:e:d situation? How changed to
thu the situation. Was it beeaue
they could ut t adapt themselves to
tl change that no speaking wss ia
dnlged in ? What a change. A new
and different quality of administration
has come in to posses the govern
lr.ent after the revolution and ex
tinction of slavery, and they have just
stepped down from a position of ir
retpcisibihty, they were nothing but
favJ. Saders. their speeches were
nothing but a jargon of fault find
ing. It was fault with the pension
laws, it was faultwiththecurrency.it
vrns f;ult w ith the nigger, it was fault
with ihe tari'T, it was fault with the
corporation, it was fault with the
FUiplns in the treasury, it was fault
with everything and not one pointer
as to a remedy only so that they
should possess the otuces. it was
no wonder that their speakers w ere
6tuuned into silence over the great
responsibilities that now confronts
them. How could men that Lave
never delivered any bnt a fault -find-
ing ej,eech help but f-Lnink from de
livering' themselves of a speec'u as to
the policy of government now tbattlie
proniit-eJ l.tnd has been reached. The
leaders could fill the stomach of the
multitude wih roast ox, bread r.nd
coflle, but their speakers could not
satiafy the anxious mental longing
of the multitude, in ppeech, by fore
shadowing a satisfactory goTermen
tal policy in accordance with the ideas
that triumphed over rebellion. The
mass of the Democratic party went
away as h.inry as they ram in the
inquiry a to what is to he done with
tbs country. The hosts of the un
terrifio.l hive an bluest .hire tint

something of what tl.o leaden pro
pose tn do new that the responsibility
jf g'cvirr.ii.er.t Las b.-eii given to
them, they retired to their homes with
the inquiry nil! pressing for an ans
wer. At midnight bands were still
playing and filhrg the town with mu
sic, while the hosts of tho IVmocracy
were scattering out into the valleys,
tired but half happy over stomachs full
of roast ox, and half un happy because
they did not hear the policy of the
