Asa Packer was horn in Connecticut.
Two year ago, when Judge Williams of
Pittsburg was nominated against
Sharswood by the Republicans, the
Coppery papers called !inn a carpet
bagger, because he was horn in Con
necticut. We are waiting to hear from
the same papers about carpet-bagger
Packer. or is our oxqred this time?
DBBTS OP HONOR. ,
. _
It is imposible not to thin i k . i meanly
of the , man Who borrows 11v6 . , dollars
of you to help him io live over :unday,
and in the press Tf,his vast ' usiness
operations, forgetsi to return the loan.
You do not
.form an exalted opinion
of a man who . fiorrows your money at
per cent. whe i n it •W111:1 earning 8 per
cent, and then gives preference of lion
toi a sharper who lete him money at 10
per cent.
But such men are comparatively
white, contrasted with the swindlers
who talk of repudiating the public in
debtedness to its ditizens and others.
. . _
However, we seldom take up a Demo
cratic paper which does not, openly or
covertly advocate the repudiation of the
debt contracted by the GovernMent in
potting - dowu the rebellion. -The lean
ing Democratic papers, everYwbere,
advocate repudiation in some form. ----
We are not prepared to say that the
Democratic party is inconsistent in this.
The debt was contracted in the effort
to reduce that party to subjection. Its
southern, and largesthalf, was in arms
against the Government, and the north
ern wing, by its leaders, was thoroughly
in sympathy with the armed wing.—
Thus resulted ; a four year's war, to
carry on which a itebt of more than
than three thousand millions was con
tracted.
Itlis hot altogetheriinconsistent, then,
if the Democratic party urges the re
yudiation of the debt. Remember, it was
incurred against' their wishes - and in a
war hostile to Democratic interests. In
other words, nut to repudiate is to force
the Democratic party to aid in paying
for its own subjugation. Such as may
object to repudiation as dishonest should
remember that every man who commits
an assault, gets beautifully whipped, and
then is mulcted in the costs, experiences
and decidedly unpleasant sensation
when called upon to _pay over.
However, treason must be punished
in some manner. Nobody is to be hung,
it.appears, mid why sheathing some
body he tined in the way of taxation ?
" But," says one Democratic paper,
" if honesty requires the
. payment of
the Union debt, it also requires the
payment of the Confederate debt!"
Somehow we - don't seethe logic of that.
If one goes to law, and gets beaten,
does the successful suitor pay all the
costs? We had taken the other view
of the matter. •
, However, the proposition serves to
show what we might expect if by an
accident the Democratic party should
got the power in its hands. We cannot
4ubt•that the policy of tlkt leaders of
that party is to i hold one debt as sacred
as the other. The . Confederate debt
must, foot up something more than the
national debt ; and then add to tile sum
total, payment for the slaves emanci
pated, and you have a grand total of
about $8,000,000,000. That's about what
a vote for Asa Packer means, we sus
pect.
It has been well stated that, were tire
Democracy to get a m'alority in Con
gress the first effort would be to guar,
anty the payment of the Confederate
debt. If you oppOse to this the fact
that the Constitution provides against
this calamity in so many words, we re
turn with that other fact, that the
larger half of the Democratic party
repudiated the Constitution less than
ten years ago, and that the leaders of
the lesser half gave the - former all the
aid and comfort they dared to. Would
it be any great feat for the Democracy
of to-day to repudiate the Constitution
°nee i7Pore, and. so guaranty the pay
meat of the Confederate debt? We
think it would not.
And then, a great share of the Con
federate debt Is held by the British Luis- -
tocraey ; that aristocracy at whose feet
the Democratic leaders, north and south;
groveled in 1863, begging them to in
terpose and stop the further shedding of
blood ! Who can doubt the love of the
Democratic leaders for the British aris
tocracy ? True, in old times, Demo
cratic mothers used to frighten naughty
young Democrats in pinafores with
threats to let a " Britisher " eat them:
That is all over. All Britain cannot
boast of a prouder host of aristocrats
than Belmont and his clan of Demo
cratic leaders in this republic.• We
hear no cry about British bondholders,
bedause they hold the bonds issued by
Jefferson Davis In payment for pirate
ships, and as security for loans to the
rebels in the hour of need. We do not
find it difficult to account for the "per
fect understanding" which appear to
exist between .the Democracy of the
United States and the aristocracy of
the Old World: Do you ? •
It was generally conceded that the
election of Oen. Grant was a defeat of
'the schemes of the repudiators. The
question was squarely put last fall and
as squarely met and answered. Still
the question—" Shall we pay our hon
est debts?"—seems to be forced again
to the surface by the Democracy. Such
questions never arise among honest
men. Thieves, cheats, and professional
swindlers nsually answer the question
in the negative, honest men never ask
it; and when met by it ever reply with
a single Word-YES.
The French Atlantic Cable, 'about
3000 miles long is landed on the Massa
chusetts coast; This would be wonder
ful.but for the fact that an air ship from
San Francisco is daily expected to land
in New York. If somebody, will in
vent a man who can exist as well under
as out of water the 19th century would
be-very grateful.
,Only the other day Isabella was driv
en from Spain. Then there was a
question as to what sort of a govern
ment should be set up, and a Regency
was agreed upon. Now the Carlists
have arisen, and Spain is in the throes
of armed revolution. Kingdoms for
the ignorant and superstitious ; repub
lics for the enlightened peoples. That's
our comment.
Mow the camp-followers of Democra
cy shout at the news that Mr. Packer
will'spare no cash,in prosecuting the
canipaign. Think of • it: A million
would buy twenty million drinks of
whisky. Supposing there are 50,000
dependents upon campaign bounty
that will be 400 drinks apiece. What
an amount of noise and fustian can be
got out of twenty million shifters !
The immaculate Brick Pomeroy was
in attendance upon the Convention
that nominated Packer's twenty mill
ions. That was a nomination worthy
of - Mr. Pomeroy. TI Packer has paid
down the million dollars for campaign
purposes, as is charged by X-1- *
Herald. ro ,,i-,1,3 0 . prick's chances in
are worth not less than $50,000. That
will pay in—cash.
The Tribune has raiked a •breeze by
publishing the names of about 100
" poor men ?? of New York, worth
from half a million to a million dollars,
but who return no taxable income. We
believe these " poor men " are all Dem
ocrats. That they don't intend to help
pay the debt is plain enough. The
rich men who are worth $2,500 must
pay taxes for these millionaires we
suppose. - I
• We almost wonder if it is true that
Packer's nomination was the upshot of
a telegraphic blunder. It is said that
the Democracy of Ohio telegraphed to
the Democracy of Pennsylvania, 'Ohio
has her Rosecrans—give Pennsylvania
her Hancock.'
,By some hocus-pocus
this message was delivered to the Dem
ocratic Convention in this wise: `Give
Pennsylvania her Packer and his
m on ey-bags ?'
And like good boys they obeyed.
The Lancaster Eranilner publishes
a list of candidates for nomination in
the County Republican Convention,
There are six for Senator, ten for As
embly, four for Treasurer„Aseven for
Commissioner, six for Sheilfr, eleven
for Register, eight for Prothonotary and
(perk of the Quarter Sessions, seven
fr Clerk of the Orphans' Court, and
three for Prison Inspector. As only a
limited number of these gentlemen can
succeed, the question arises whether
there will be eight tickets in the field,
The betting season is upon us. The
Democracy, having a cash candidate,
are ready with cash Arguments. "I'll
bet you "—is the salutation on every
hand. We hope Republicans will fail
to respond to these arguments. Betting
is gambling. If it be the correct thing
to play poker for money, then betting
is legitimate. Bet not at all. If the
alternative be moderate Profanity take
that instead. One party' to a wager is
sure to swear, and the other is the re
cipient of ill-gotten gains. Let the
Democrats bet with one another if they
must bet.
The best specimen of a faux pas we
have seen lately is in Hancock's letter
declining the nomination for Governor.
He says that lie has " followed the
Profession of arms from boyhood, and
haVing acquired konsiderable rank,
do not wish to abandon it and enter
upon a life for which lam much leas
prepared by experience and education."
Yet last year ho was eager to take the
Tammany nomination for President,
_for which place we suppose ` his educa
tion-___
and experience peculiarly qualified
him. Ah, General, it was sour grapes.
The Democracy of Pennsylvania want
a man whose war record is not an of
fence in the sight and recollection of
traitors. Gen. Lee stood as much chalice
of a nomination in that Convention as
Hancock. Why' not? Lee fought on
the side of the Democracy; Hancock
didn't. That's enough.
