THE Democracy are at last willing to discard their old war cries, and .forsake the worship of their old shrines. They have given up slavery and all its sur roundings. There was a time when they taught that the institution was divine ? . that its perpetuation was'necessary, that its abolition _was a crime. All this they have re-canted. They taught that the war for the suppression of the rebellion was unconstitutional and wicked. They .have discovered their error. Thuy pre dicted that it would' end in a discovered nation and ruined country. Hero they also They their predictions unfulfilled. Thei agreed to repudiate the national debt, but this they have abandoned. And having no other war cry, they turn in desperation and plead that the old issues may be fcrgotten. Belt so. We desire it as greatly as they do. It isn't creditible to the nation that these issues were ever joined. It is a shame that we ever had slavery on this continent, and a grouter shame that we tolerated or defended it. It is humiliating that them was ever an issite raised as to the right of the government to crush re bellion, ,and this alone cost us thousands of lives and millions' of treasure. It was infamous that there ever should have been a proposal , to repudiate the debt contracted in carrying on'the war. Let all these things, be buried in an eternal oblivion.- But how, will this bo done? There 'is but ono way. The 15emocralic party Wasthe author' f all these political here sies. In order that they may be forgotten, it is necessary that the party by which they were brought about should also be blotted_ frona•renunnbrance- Let all who dislilco the old issues help to Lary the old part-34-7.. WHAT claim has any Democratic poli tician to the vote of a menthe? of the Republican party? For years they have denounced and villitled the party With- Out stint. They have called its leaders fauatich, scoundrels, Mimics, murderers, and every other opprobrious name which their imagination could sug gest.

Don't neglect the duty of putting•,in nomination good local tickets, as this will contribute greatly to our success in the election of the county ticket. WHAT has become of the determina= Lion of )?emocratia• politicians, to fight out this campaign and the succeeding ones for all time as the white man's party? Their journals are very evidently flagging on this question. Como gentle men, dontt forget your principles. You havelnt any other war cry than " negro equality," and you ,had better use that energetically. You can't win with it of course, but you have a great many men even now in your, party, who aro never tired of the main question. IN THE last eighteen months of John son's administra ‘ tion, the expenses of the government were almost $B3, 000, 000' greater than in the first eighteen months of Grant's administration. Intim former ease the parties who run the machine were Democrats, in the latter they are 4e publicans. Taxpayers will potfail to note the diffbrence, and act accordingly. Democratic rule may have some advan tages 'to those who inild,Die office, but can the people afford to pay $83,000,000 extra for eighteen 'eoliths of it? CAN any Republican who renuthied ne to his party during the years when was obliged to, impose ~burdens con- tinually on the pimple, in order to sup- . press a Democratic rebellion, afford to desert it now, when it is engaged in re ducing taiation, paying the National and Stale indebtedness, and leading the country in the way of pew and pros perity ? Ito • man who voted for Lincoln or Drant, think of desertingthe party which they led to victory, NEVER discharge a faithful workman just for the sake of. change. Never desert a friend who has shown liinself faithful for the promises of one who is yet '.untried. Never leave a party that has accomplished faithfully all the trusts it has over undertaken. Don't think of leaving the Republican party 'that has carried to a successful issue altitii ideas for one that has been broken,. defeated, and thwarted'in every undertaking. ,Thosn who desire tickets printed for the borough and township , elections, should make their nominations and hand in their orders immediately. Wo.will begin to print our county tickets yoiy shortly, and if the orders for local tickets are received soon we may bo able to die tuiliute both to theelnction districts at the saine time. These' matters 'Should not be delayed until the last moment. Tnu Republicans of Cumberland county pay considerably more than half: the . taxes required to keep the county ma chinery in motion, and yet they have not the slighest influence in the ninnagemone of the comity affairs.

Robert Cooper Griei late Associate Jus tice of the Supreme Jourt of the United States, having expired at his residence in this city at an early hour yesterday morning. While not wholly unexpected, Judge Grier having been suffering from paralysis for several years, and having, had a 'stroke only a few days ago, the announcement ~of his death will bo re ceived with unfeigned sorrow, by his .numerous friends and the members of the profession of which he was so distin guished an ornament. Robert Cooper Grier was born in Cum berland county, in the southeastern part of this State, March 5, 1794. His father, Rev. Isaac Grier, who was a man of great ability and energy, removed soon after his son's birth to Lycoming county. Here he at one _and the same time car ried on a farm, taught school, and preached to three congregations, It was under such circumstances that the future jurist grew up. Mr. Isaad Grier Was a man of considerable learning, and was the solo - educator of his son •up to his seventeenth year, when ha entered Dick-' ins= Colle g e with a fair knowledge of Greek and Latin. Robert graduated in 1812 ; after teaching for a year at his almapater he went to:Northumberland, wherp. his father find removed in 1806 and laken•eliarge of an academy. His father was growing Old and infirm, and Robert assisted him in the management of • the institution. In 1815 Mr. Grier died, and although his son was but 21 years of ago he was appointed to succeed him. For more than, a year he taught Greek and Latin, mathematics and as tronomy, and lectured on chemistry. Having a decided predilection for the bar, he spent the interval between his duties in preparation for his future pro fession, In 1817 be was admitted to the liar at Bloomsburg, in Columbia county. Iti 1818 he removed to Danville, in the same county, where he praoticed his profession with much energy and sue- miss, and at once took a - prominent standing. • . ,6 ( .

In the same year he removed to Allegheny city, where he lived until 1848, In that, year he..re moved to this city, where ho has ever since resided. Judge Grior's reputation as a sound lawyer and able juriat had. now become national, and on August 4, 1848, he was nominated by President Polk one of the Justices of the SuMeme Court of the United States, vice Judge Baldwin ' deceased. Ile was unanimously confirmed by the Senate on the same day, and at once entered upon the dis charge of his duties. . From 1840 up to last January, Judge Grier held this high office with great credit .to himself. In addition to his . . . .. . duties at Washington, he had charge of the circuit embracing the States of Penn sylvania and New Jersey, which ikneces sitated his pre *ding• alternately in this city, Pittsburg, illiamsport, and Tren ton. His decisio 7kiyere numerous, and but rarely oVerruled, • • . For the last few years Judge Grier has been in feeble and declining ,health. His brain, however, was still as clear and vigorous as in the prime days of his youth. On the sixteenth day of Deem •ber he tendered his resignation to Presi dent Grant,- to take effect on the -thirty first of the following January. In accepting his resignation President Graht testified the general appreciation in which .Tustice Grier was held, and his own per sonal estimate of. his value as a faithful' vervantof the Republic. .

Equal, civil and political - rights td all under our national authority, whether native born or naturalized, and the pro tection of the humblest and weakest as faithfully as tho•richest and most• pow erful. . 2. The condemnation 'of all forms and plans of direct and indirect repudiation 'as a pagoda . ' crime ; and the maintain ance untarnished, in the uttermost good faith, of national honor' , and national credit, as rOgar . iis our debt, the cost of our national \ obstence. 3. Taxation to be equalized and re duced as rapidly as the national faith will permit. 4. The debt, having been contracted for the preservation of the Union for all time to come, should be extended over a fair period for redemption, reducing the rate of interest thereon as soon as it can be honestly done. 5. The_government to boadministered- 1 with the strictest economy, and "cor ruptions so shamefey nursed and fos tered by Andrew Johnson" to be cally reformed. -6. The European doctrine of "once a subject always a subject" to be resisted .at every hazard by the United States, as at war with our national honor and inde pendence. 7. The bounties and pensions prcwided . -by-the-law for the soldiers and sailors; who imperiled their lives for their coun try, and for the widows and, orphans of the gallant dead, to be ever considered - as sacred obligations. 8. Foreign emigration, adding so largely to the wealth, development, re sources, and increase of power of this re public, to be fostered by a policy which shall be just as well-as liberal. 9.

The great principles of the decla ration of independence, as the foundation of truly Democratic government, to be made a living reality on every inch of American soil. 12.
