The rulers of the Democratic party—
" that pestilent Blair family."
The sore-heads' candidate—Frank P.
Blair. The bondholders' candidate—
Horatio Seymour. ,
Wm. G. Cm:krill, a leading Democrat
of Madison County, Tenn., has come
out for Grant and Colfax.
Seymour's Conventional remark, "
cannot accept," is evidently a misprint
for " I cannot, except—"
A St. Louis correspondent predicts
that Grant will poll a much larger vote
in Missouri than did Lincoln.
" The Blairs have been putting their
heads together." This is one, of those
cases where two are not better than
one.
The Democratic party congratulates
itself that it can now make, , an offen
sive war. The nation will prepare. to
hold Its nose.
"I like Grant," said a German the
other day, " because he don't blow.—
He minds his own business, and makes
no fuss about it."
• Every man in the South whose words
betray the fact that he is yet a Rebel at
heart is for Seymour and Blair. Re
member this, comrades !
The Cleveland Leader says : " If you
want to make an Ohio Democrat mad,'
say Blair to him.- It is worse than a
red rag to_a turkey rooster."
'Prominent Democrats in St. Louis
threaten to bolt the ticket as they can't
; stand Blair. Where the Blairs are best
known they are least liked.
At a raising_ in Porter township,
Etuntingdon Coupty, Penn., lately a
vote was taken on the Presidential ques
tion. The vote stood : Grant and Col
fax, 74 ; opposed, 8.
The Chicago Post says ; "Frank
Blair complains - because the Republi
cans have put him under foot. Instead
of putting him under foot, they ought
to pit a foot under him."
- A vote was taken on the steamer J.
B. Schuyler, on the trip to Bridgeport
on Saturday, with the following result;
For Grant and Colfax, 78; for Seytriour
and Blair, 37: Majority for Grant and
Colfax, 41.
It is said that when Seymour made
speeches in Pennsylvania in 1860, he
was twice challenged by the eloquent
Daniel Dougherty of Philadelphia, to a
public discussion, but discretion proved
the better part of his valor, and he
evaded the invitation.
The Irish Republic says with emi
nent good sense : " Lrishmen in Ameri
can politics must work from the Ameri
can standpoint, and rediember 4tiat it is
their citizenship that entitles qiem to
vote and shout, and notthe fact of their
being born in Ireland."
A little girl in Westfield, Mass., writ
ing.to one of her old teachers in this
city, says : " The Republicans have a
beautiful Grant and Colfax flag strun g
across the street, but the Democrats
have an old patched up thing just like
Seymour and Blair and the party they
represent."
Supporters of Grant—Sherman, Sher
' r idan, Thomas, Meade, Farragut, and
Bight outof ten other loyal officers amt
men Who fo :ght under the Stars and
Stripes during the Rebellion. Suppor
'
ters e of Seymour—Beauregard,•Forrest,
Hampton, Semmes, Toombs, and nine
tenths of the Rebels who fought under
the Stars and . Bars, This fact needs no
comment. •
When Blair, in 1860, during the cam
paign in Indiana, branded the Democ
racy as a " vile, miserable party," and
abused Douglas so fiercely, Dun: Voor
hees called Blair the " prince of blaek
guards." Blairjn return branded Voor
hees as a "hell-hound." Now the
1 , hell-hound" supports the " prince of
blackguards." 'A nice couple, truly.
The Louisville Journal\sounds the
long roll, and says : ' Democrats,
stand to the . polls. if that will not do,
stand to your guns,' and the spirit of
these words breathes through mad
speech and raving editorial, from the
Ohio to the Gulf. The Only hope of
quenching these flames is by smother
ing them under the overwhelming ball
ots cast for Grant, Colfax, and Pence.
Again she pipes :
Rook a by Seymour.

The Southern Banner of Georgia,
speaking of Johnson's • amnesty, says :
Let us be thankful for small favors.—
Let us rejoice that the ban of oppres
sion 'has been uplifted: Let us shout
hosannas to 'the beat Government the
world ever saw l'—but let, us never for
get the principles for, which we strug
gled through four long and bloody
years : and let us never forget the gall
ant ' men in gray' who so nobly but
yet so vainly struggled to vindicate and
uphold these principles."
The Richmond Enquirer and Exami
ner renews the cry against the " Yan
kee pedagogues," so familiar before the
war. It says they have always been a
tves
tto the South, and it expresses- its
1' oy that the war, whatever harm it did,
rought the South relief from their
presence, so that the minds of the chil
dren were no longer pohnned "with
the accursed doctrines of Puritanism
and Abolitionism." It says quietly
that "It was only a few years before
the war that their tricks were discover
ed, and their number sensibly dimin
ished in the South." .
A correspondent, writing to THE
TRIBUNE from Niagara Falls, says :
"You may be interested to hear that,
In our town,,which polls about 500
votes, there were over 60 voters who in
tended to vote! for Mr. Chase, had he
been nominated• by the NewFYork Con
vention, but have decided to vote for
Grant and Colfax since the nomination
of Seymour. Quite a number of them
were War Democrats. They I will not
touch anything tinged with copper."
The Danville (Va.) Register takes
The World to task for laboring to give
the Democratic platform " a construc
tion which it certainly does not bear."
It demands that The World shall come
out and acknowledge the truth at once
—say that the'partrfavo - r the taxing of
the bent*. and Eight the battle squarely
on that line. Again, it complains that
The World puts a false construction up
on Wade Hanipton's speech in this city.
It says bluntly that "Hampton de
manded that the white people of the
South should all vote, whether recog
nized by Congress as recoi)structed
through the farce now going on or not ;
and that he demanded, further, that if
by these States so voting Seymour and
Blair shall receive a majority of the
white votes, they shall be installed in
power ' in spite of all the bieyonets that
shall be brought against them.'"
The Detroit Tribune (Rep.) says ;
"We are told by the Democratic press
that Seymour is " a statesman," • the
leading statesman of the country," and
mueli'more of the same sort. Where
are the evidences of his statesmanship ?
what has he done ? He has held no
office higher thati that of Governor of
the State of New-York, a position most
honorable, but almost shorn of power
and responsibility, and not calling into
play any of the qualities ' of statesman
ship. Neither'as a member of the Leg
islature nor as Mayor of. Utica did Glity.
Seymour prove himself a etatesman;L--
We are then reduced to the " statesman
like grasp of his speeches." and that is
all there is of it.. He makes a high
sounding speech, filled with copious ad'-
vice that nobody ever followed, and
which would have led them to destruc
tion If they bad followed it. he claim
of statesmanship_ for Gov. Seymour is
an impudent pretense."

BONDS! BONDS!! BONDS!!!
Josephus tells us of a Jew, who, dur
ing the Beige of Jerusalem by Titus, ran
constantly about the doomed city cry
ing—" Woe ! woe! won!"
In this, our Jerusalem, there are
many men running about crying—
" Bonds I Bonds ! BONDS ! " and the
hue-and-cry is something fearful. It
may comfort the nervous to know that
the Jew of whom Josephus writes 'was
struck dead by-a missile from the walls
of the city, expiring in the spirit
prophecy,
We now turn our attention to the
truculent demagogues who, local_ and
general, go about misreprese»lhg_
everything pertaining- to the finances
of the' country. The small fry who
meet you on every hand with the cry
of " bonds," and " taxation," but who
know less of either than they do of
barrooms and bawdy-houses, -may be
suffered to bawl themselves hoarse, and
die of exhaustion. Our mission is to
those of the falsifiers who ignore every
thing Which constitutes candor and fair
dealing, and who deliberately falsify,
garble, or cover up the record In their
communications with the public. We
small keep to the record, giving our
authorities for whatever may bear upon
the subject of bonds and taxations. And
first as to taxation of -bonds:
The 4th resolution of the Democratic
platform declares for " equal taxation
of every species of Property, according
to its real value, including Government
bonds and other public securities.",
We submit the following proposi
tions :
1. The stocks of the United States
cannot be taxed by local authorities un
der the Constitugoo.
2. The leaders Of the Democratic par
ty know that the stocks of the United
States cannot be taxed.
3. Those planks in the Tammany
platform relating to taxation are intend
ed to cheat and delude the gullible.
Which we set about demonstrating,
thus :
1. The securities of the United States
cannot be taxed by States or local
authorities, constitutionally. Three
cases have been carried up to the Su
preme Court of the United. States In
volving this preelse question of taxa
tion. The first was in 1819, and arose
from the Imposition of a State tax upon
the Branch Bank of the United States
at,Baltimore (4 Vireaton, 318). Chief

FRANK V.
Justice Marshall, the ablest jurist this
country has produced delivered the
the unanimous opinion of the Court,
to the effect that any State or local law
taxing the financial agencies of , the
United State, must in the very nature
of the case; be unconstitutional and
void. He further stated that the right
to tax the means, employed by the Gov
ernment of the UniOri for the execution
of its powers never existed.- And so
the law of Maryland imposing a tax
upon U. S. banking operations was de
clared unconstitutional and void.
The second case arose ,in 1824, in the
State of Ohio, and was precisely like
the first cited. Chief justice Marshall
again delivered the opinion of the Su
preme Court of the Un ted- States. 'He
confirmed the opinion in the Maryland
case,,and declared the io law, uncon
stitutional and void. •
-The third case arose i 1829. The city
of Charleston. S. C., had passed an or
- dinance imposing a tax,upon United
States bonds. Chief Justice Marshall
again delivered the opinion' of the
Court, citing the cases above referred to,
and declaring the Charleston Ordinance
null and void. Judge Mafshall discus
sed the case elaborately, and declared,
that as the'power to borrow was con
ferred by .the people of the United
States,-so no State could burden the ex
ercise of this power by taxing the evi
dences of debt issued by, the Govern
ment. He further stated that the pow
er to impose such a tax by a State or a
corporation, involved; the power to tax
the securities of the Government out of
existence. He declared further that a
tax imposed by a State upon such se
curities was a tax upon the contract be
tween the Government and the lender,
and thus affects it in a manner which
endangers its existence.-
These decisions of the Supreme. Court
of the United States are in the nature
of authoritative - interpretations of the
Constitution in the matter of local tax
-ation of the bonds and financial agen
cies of the Government. These decis
ions stand as the settled law upon the
question in hand.
We now conclude our proof of the' let,
2d, and 3d propositions as follows :
I. The Supreme Court has three times
decided taxation of -the United States
Necurities mid banking operations to be
unconstitutional and void.
2. The leaders of the Democratic party
know that these decisions constitute
all jthe law in the ease.
3. In declaring; for the taxation of the
bonds of the United 6tates-by State and
local authorities, they declared for an
act which they knew to be unconstitu
tional,•and therefore null and void, and
so put forth a promise to the people
which they never intended nod never
intend to perform.
We now assume the aggressive: When
the Democratic party was in power, in
1800, the public debt was about $70,000,-
000. About $40,000,000 was secured by
bonds at long tiMe, and the balance in
treasury notes at short time.
Who owned then) bonds?
We answer,—the capitalists of the
United f3tates.
Were those bonds ever taxed ?
Did any of the leaders of the Democ
racy ever clamor for, or demand the
taxation of those bonds ?
If " yes," will somebody give Lei the
"rat.. or 4Lic untrnUtel
if " no "-why not?
Those bonds paid no taxes whatever.
And no Democrat asked for their taxa-
RE
Bear this in mind, for w 6 have some
thing more to say about it.
The present war debt of the nation
was owed, p•i►warily, to the people.—
There was no neighborhood where some
of the 7-30 s; or 5-20 s, or 1040 s were not
found. Workingmen took them. Small
capitalists took them. Every true man
and woman who had enough ready
money to take a bond, took it.
',Mese people tool: the bonds in the same
spirit that 'mothers, wives and sisteq sent
their sons, husbands, and brotherS into
the fight. And this, in good part 4 ac
counts for the hostility of the Cop
perhead party to the " bondholders "
the " bloated bondholders," the " aris
tocratic bondholders."
How many who raise these cries know
why the bonds •were issued ?-
THADDEUS STEVENS, probably the
most noted public man of the times,
died at his residence in Washington,
Tuesday evening, 11th inst. Thecoun
try has produced few abler intellects,
nd few public men have so vividly
i4ressed their individuality upon the
events of an extraordinarily turbulent..
time. He was one of the most forcible,
- dbbaters ever listened to on the floors of
Congress, and possessed what is rare in
men of equal ability—the powerof com
manding attention whenever he spoke.
As a friend of the oppressed, without
distinction of color or race, he„Will live
in the gilateful memory of' millions
when thoSe who have hated and reviled
him shall be long forgotten. Eccentric,
obstinate, often impracticable, few men
have so generally won and retained the
respect of political opponents as he.
Few men have borne so-much abuse at
the - bands of political opponents who
never knew him personally, and - who
are unable to comprehend the nature of
his opPosition to what is called Democ
racy. Thaddeus Stevens was a demo
crat of the purest Water—ignoring the
accidents of life and estimating- men
according to their merits. No man de
tested a sham and a humbug as
A Democracy led on by the •Illiancial
agent of the money-bags of the Old
World was no Democracy to him, but a
weak, puling toady of an aristocracy.
He died in harness_ There will be
More poor men and women than rich
at his funeral.
The betting mania would appear to
be very strong in the ranks of the De
mocracy jtist now. We hear much
about money being deposited by san
guine Seymour men for betting pur
poses; but there:is a fund of $lO,OOO at
the Metropolitan Hotel, New York,
waiting for takers at two to one for
Grant against Seymlour. 11 , ,e do not
believe in betting ill any way or shape,
knowing it to prove nothingeitherway.
But if Seymour men are willing to bet,
and want to bet, with the-money odds
it their favor, George Wilkes, of the
Spirit of the Times, would be glad to
n,t,mt,ll,A=sme
ee their pil4 an►) go them its double
better. We believe that's the right
slang of. it. ' Any amount (It* takers,
gentlemen. Mr. Wilkes will be at
home at all reasonable hours.
Judge Maynard has
,been making a
speech in Williamsixnt. to some', re
spects it is a - remarkable
Judge said that nobody would ask "who
Horatio Seymour is.' We guess not.—
His Honor also declared the propriety
of paying the public debt as soon as
practicable. Nobody denies it. He aL
so declares for equal taxation,. So does
everybody else. He asks why-. the Gov
ernment bonds should not be taxed to
pay the public debt. The Supreme'
court has answered that ci 3 estion for
His Honor ; though' a - judge by favor
is not supposed to know much about
,precedents. He' believes In a uniform
currency, but-does not say whether it
should be gold or paper. He believes
in economy, but does not reprove the
Copperocracy, which steals enough,
from the treasury to subsidize the entire
pauper press of the party. He knows
Gov. Seymour personally, and yet calls
him modest to " Christian htimility."
He remarks, that Blair is a man of ;Spot
less integrity,—which will be news to
every man who knows Blair ; and im
mediately asked to be , excused from
further speaking. We should think so.
Ahem !
"E. B. R.!' is assured that to chase
up each specific He, misrepresentation,
and deceit practiced upon the people by
the fuglemen of the Copperhead party
would be too much like 'drawing w'ater
in a sieve. ,We have seen no copper
head open his mouth and Speak upon
anything of record touching the issues
of -the campaign that I4did not misrep
resent, misapply, or lie utterly and wil
fully. It is safe to say that now, as
ever, the " best holt " of that party
will be shameless lying. With all the
charity we can muster we cannot call to
mind one man of that party who will be
active this year, who can be believed in
anythingpolitical whore a lie ; would
promise benefit or advantage. We
kfiow that i party through and through.
It is false; selfish, unscrupulous, and
craven.

Let us complete your history, The
Demodratic journals vied with the
London journals in discouraging the
people of the• North during the war.
Even ourcoWMporary last above quoted,
though bett4r than his fellows, did not
always prop t- it,psy victory for the North.
He often forgot his country in remem
bering hi p s party. The London journals
prophesy the defeat of Horatio Sey
mour, because their cool-headed con
ductors knoW that no man who opposed
a suecegsful war was ever afterwards
raised to public position by any nation.
Hon. Isaac N. Morris, of Illinois, one
of the ablest of the friends of Douglas
in 1860, has written a letter to F. P.
Blair, the Seymour candidate for, Vice
President, in which he makes the fol
lowing startling revelation : "A- few
".days_ttfter tlux norainial.r... —..: --- , -
"the New York Convention, I had a
" conversation in Washington City with
"Gen'. Caleb Cushing, of Massachu
" setts, in which that eminent jurist and
"Voliticiaq said : ' The simple question
" to determine at the election is, •shall
" Gen. Grant or Frank Blair be Presi
" dent for the next four years; for if
" Seymour is elected he will not live a
" year.' " I t
s
This may! well set men to thinking.
Frank Blair procured his nomination
by declarin' for another revolution.—
Nothing i clearer to our mind than
that with blank Blair in the Chair the
nation would be rushed• into another
rebellion. The people must choose be
tween peace with Grant and war with
Seymour.
The Seymour papers may as well
il learn to keep cool. One'eannot men
tion their platform that some sensitive
Seymourite does not fly into a passion
and resort to hard names to defend
what they call their '" matchless plat
form." The platform framed by Beelz
ebug, Belial, Moloch and the great con
trolling Devil in council, as translated
by the divine Milton, has never been
matched. Keep cool. There is to be
free and frank discussion from this time
down'to the day of election, and as much
longer thereafter as the virtue of the
people is efficient to preserve it. Hard
words butter no parsneps. Vinegar does
not eatch flies.' Blackguard is not argu
ment; and talk about appealing from
the ballot to the bullet, while it fright
ens nobody, is' an acknowledgment of
defeat. A little ice judiciously applied,
will do you good gentlemen.
Horatio Seymour's letter of accept
ance has appeared. It is just twenty
times as long as Grant's, and reminds
us of a moss-agate pebble. rt is as
smooth as whipped cream, and as du
bious as the origin of the new Miltonio
poem. It is a pity that a "great states
man" should take two columns to_say
nothing in. There is more plain com
mon sense, straightforward talk in Gen.
Grant's twenty lines than there is in
Seymour's 400. We are waiting to see
some evidence of Seymour's statesman
ship. Where's the evidence? What
has he done, and what has he said ?
