To our Readtrs,
Now that the election is over, we shall de
vote less of our space to political matters.
More attention will now be given to the
news, both local and foreign. The literarv
selection for the oeming winter will be of
such a character, as to make the Democrat
an ever welcome fireside visitor. Will our
friends aid us in increasing its circulation ?
•
TIIE RESULT.
We have delayed our paper for a day or
two in order to give the result of the Presi
dential-election held on Tuesday last. We
can offer to our friends no such tidings < f
Triumph, as we had hoped we could. It is
now conceded on alt hands that wo are to
•uffer another four ytars of the misrule pf
Abraham Lincoln. BJore that time shall
have expired, the adherents of the party that
placed him in power will regret the deed of
madness end folly which they have commit
ted, more deeply than we now do. When
v thoy shall he restored by the sharp lessons
of experience, to reason, they will curse the
man they have chosen to rule over them,
with curses louder and deeper than the men
who, from the first, saw the danger of his re
election, and who s!rove to avert it. The
treachery and deceit which have been prac.
tieea upon them, will unfold itself to theii
mind in all its hideous deformity. They
will then feel al! the chagrin, disappointment
and rage, which follows misplaced and abused
confidence.
The Democratic party will have the proud
consciousness that they have contributed in
T to manner to bring a trout this result
Vv hile it will share in all its evil conse.
quences, it will share nine of the disgrace,

The O! do Statesman ;id monsters the
following vigorous citig*lkm to one of the
most foul mouthed, abusive, acd unveracious
newspapers iu the world. It is a paper in
sp.rcd by tlu*;>int ot William O-.bbett an 1
4 Thomas Paine, weakened and degraded b.
adulteration with the spirit of Marat and
Robespierre-:
"ll' race Greeley—the falsest, of prophets
the most inconsistent of pi liticiams, the r*>bi
dest of disuniomsts, and most mendacious of
hypocrites—Horace Greeley a few weeks ago
smarting under the exposure <>l the debauch-*
cry or New York Abolition leaders at a mis
cegenation ball in Twenty third street, came
out iu a double-leaded editorial deprecating
the use of foul epithots, abusive language and
disgusting lies in a Presidential campaign
From that day to this we have read the Trib
uae regularly,and the mildest expressions wo
have seen m it in describing Democrats and
the Democratic party in general, are about as
:o'!ows : Liars, scoundrels, dogs, dirt eaters,
secessionists, traitors, thieves, slave-drivers,
slave-breeders, advocates of human bondage,
mercenaries, cowards, and Convicts. New
York is a Democratic city, arid Horace Gree
ley, luckily for himself, lives in it, and this
accounts lor the phenomenon that he has not
been horse whipped since he was a member
of Congress. If he were a Democratic editor
and lived in an Abolition city and using such
language as his journal habitually uses to
wards political opponents, there is little doubt
he would have been mobbed and probably
hung."

THR RESrrX
The Piiilad'a Age says There is now no
I k.: ig*.r any doubt that Abraham Lincoln and
1 Andrew Johnson hnv jf b.-n elected Pre -
! dent and Vice Pr raid-nt of the United Sta:**
J -d it Ha the iuty of every good cuizen to .
submil to the pi-pillar will as "expressed at
the- ballot box. It has been decided i.
the nation is to enjoy four years more of Mr. ,
I Lincoln's rule, and an amulideation of ail the
I "benefits and blessings" which an Abolition
Administration has shown itself 10 well q ual
I ifh-d and disposed to shower upon a happy .
| and grateful people.
| A leading Abolition organ of .this city j
claimed, yesterday, that the result of the 1
election was an endorsement of the entire
policy and measures of the Administration,
j Tins claim is just. Emancipation, Confisca
tion, Subjugation, Extermination ham been
endorsed j and, we do out feel at liberty to
exclude a social and political equality to the
negro from the ample range of the endorse
ment.
Democrats and conservatives—not ap- ;
j proving either the principles or policy of Mr.
, Lincoln —of course, as American citizens, j
| deplore the ills which they see looming dark.
vin the future, as the result of Tuesday' 6
j work. They, as citizens, must share in the
1 calamities in store for our common country
1 ca'amitics which their judgment teaches them
to bo inevitable, if the present Abolition pol. !
icv be persisted in. But, while they, as a
1 portion of the American pe >ple. expect, and
1 are prepared to endure their share of the
1 general adversity which they believe must
i follow the rejection ol their principles at the
polls, they, as individual citizens, will have
the proud consolation of feeling that they
i have not contributed to procuce the evils that
are to cotne upon us ; while, at a p\rly, they
have escaped a fearful responsibility, which,
for the sake or the Country, they were will,
ing to assume.
The Meanest Men lu Creation.
Judge Abbot, of B >ton, n Democrat, who
we believe has lost two sons in the war, in a
recent speech expresses his opiuiou thus
plainly of Republicans :
Let me ask fur a raounii! who those men
are who denounce tho-<e who appeal to the
better part of man's nature. For twenty
years past they have endeavored to destroy
1 the Union. * * These are the men who
denounce )ou and me. They dan't want the
Union. They are the mea who have talked
I about war. war that is not to last always,
j but who never have and never will risk a
, hair of the'.r own miserable head*. When
j tney talk if war they mean to risk the lives
i of your children and mine, while they remain
,at home. They belong to the class you have
j heard of before, who are willing to sacrifice
, a!! their wives relations and even consent to
1 sacrifice tLeir first cousins in the war, but
I not even a mot net's son ot them will ever
j get within sound of a bullet. * • * Their
patriotism expends itself in buying negroes
I and in sending to Germany for recruits to
j fight a war they don't cure anything about
I Do yon want 10 know v*ho 16 the meanest,
1 most despicable creature—animal. I will
j not call him man—who crania? * * *
I Itisainauwho constantly appeals to the
i worst passions of our nature; who is c >ll- •
; stantly urging 11s to battie and who his not
j curage, ability, ot capability to ask a hair
10l his own head. Th-uk of that, and when
I you have found such a man, ji-u have font; ' '
one of t;.e 111 t miserable wretches who
craw's. Tins is one class. Tncre is another
they who are constantly letuu ici ia us it we
say a wor 1 for peace and uni in. If you ask
these men to turn their p >c.<et inside ou-,
you will find them stuffed with greenbacks,
t! e-p e.ls of your industry and mine. They -
J vvnit war, because it means p >wer and sp ills
| Of course these patent patriots don't want to
end the war. These are the men who find
fau't with us because we w„ut to restore the
union.
MR. LINCOLN'S CHOICE READINGS. —An
1 cient phi!ophers need to say, that the best
1 indication* of a man's inward feelings was to
be fouui in the choice of his readings and in
the communion of the soul which the writers
of the age. Ido not believe that this re fiec
lion hrs lost anything of its accuracy for be
ing old. Mr. Lincoln, who trios to regulate
his life upon the model of the great statesmen
of Rome and Greece, and, who to that effect
ha 6 livi d m close intimacy with Montaigne
i for the last three months, adds by bis exam
: pie a new weight to the authority of the j
j old sages. lie reals the old Eronch writer
with deli Jit, and says he is the greatest
i thinker, France, and perhaps the world, has
I produced. His readings are not, untortu !
j notclv tar us, confined to that book. Oth j
ersot a more dangerous character occupy, al- j
j so, his leisures. He has recently added to !
his private library the '• History of Groin- |
well's Protectorate," the " Return ol Nap.de i
an the Etrst from the " Coup d'Etat j
of Napolean the third." These three b >oks
which might bo called "Treatise on the /rt
>f Usurpation," are now his subject for med
itation. He reads them by day and by nigbt
and puts them under his pillow ca*e when h,,
goes to bed, so as to have the deleterious ex ,
atopics and practise contained in these b'Kiks ' 1
m close proximity with the seat of his th o'ts

Perhaps you fondly imagine the war will

j beve or imagine it will ? Can you even hope
' so, in the face of the history of the past wea-
Iry years, during which time Ihis war has
! dragged its slow and bloody length along ?
Is the rebellion really just about crashed
out? Does not that oft-repeated assertion
begin to pull upon your ear ? It is true, j
Sherman holds Atlanta, hut his cumraunica*- I
tions are constansly menaced, and n >t unfrc* .
quently temporarily interrupted. With less
than a powerful army, one sufficient to resist
a large force, he cu!d not possibly maintain
his position. Sheridan has defeated Early ; i
our troops fight gloriously ; they pcur out '
their blood without stint, and afflict, compen
sating!}-. severe losses upon the enemy ; but
the end is not yet. The barbarous proced
ure of sweeping destruction, which has made
a desert of the bentifn! valley of Virginia,
shows that this war is not near its end, and
plhinlr indicates that our generals do not re
card it. Gfant still beleaguers Richmond . i
and there", and. as on auxiliary thereto, in the
valley of Virginia, active operations ate going
on. Elsewhere the war seems to be at a
s and still. Richmond may fall, though the
present campaign is already too far advanced
to expect it. before, at hast, another cam
paign -hall be er.ti red upon.
BtU suppose Lincoln to be r--e!eclel. will
the war then be any nearer at an end ? Will
the people of the South fight any the less des
perately ) Ate not all the leading papers of
the South earnestly hoping to tec lntii elected?
Thfry bohliy say so, and thero is goud reason
why they should prefer his triumph to that of
XlcCelllan. They know that his fanatical
folly has united ihe white Southern people
as one ; and they fear more the Greeks hear
ing gifts than arms. If the people of the
North should d chre in lavoi or the old Un
ion under the Constitution, tTc leaders of
the rebellion know very weil that the Union
feeling, quite smothered n'w by the mad
policy >t Abolitionism, would burst forth into

!ry and naval auihorities, while fair term- of

peace. They Un w*he would ask no more,
and they know, luu, that their people would
te. fa its. fad vri'h that. llence their pre rer
, ence, so plainly and s. univers illy expressed
hr Lincoln. There is not a leading rebel in
ihe whole South, n -t one, from JefT.-is >n I),i
vin down, who doe* not hope to see fanatfc
is u triumph in the p. rson of Lincoln. They
could" then still keep their people thor
oughly united, while tf'oy would have less to
fear from one whose Administration his par
tisans denounce as " po'itica'ly, financially,
a failure." than from a new man, distinguish
ed for ability, who would be surrounded bv
the most eminent leaders of both the
parties who formerly controlled the destinies i
of this nation. McCltdh.n's Cabinet would j
he made up, not from the I euiocratic party |
alone, but would have in it reprcsentativ j
men of the old Whig party, many of the best ;
and wisest of whom, disgusted villi the fid
lies and sick of the crimes of the fanatics now
in power, supp rt him from motives of pure '
patriotism. Lincoln W'.uld c ntinue the :
Course of policy which he has suffered fo be I
imposed upon bun by (lie m st violent and j
corrupt men of his own party, and would re- j
fuse to listen to the wiser c -Uriels of the i
many men who really know best what is fir !
the 'nterest of the people- -what would beat j
subserve the honor of the nation. Tell U9 i
reader, can you see any hope for the country j
if Lincoln sre elected ? Answer this ques- ;
tion honestly to your f irn conscience. If
Lincoln is reelected—what then ?
GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN
It may be in teres ting to those who are;
now idolizing Mr. Train to real a few ex
tracts frotn his speech at Rahway, Now Jer j
Bey, on the Bth of October. IL re they are: '
Mr. Lincoln is a bummer.
Mr. Lincoln's policy is fatal to success.
People will repudiate because they have no '
confidence in Mr. Lincoln's palicy ending the
war.
There is more danger to-day of the West
seceding in a body if Mr. Lincoln is eleot- j
ed, then there was of the Son.h seceding he- ,
fore the fall of Sumter. When a shot is fired i
into Cincinnati, or • Oleavelaad, or Chicago,
the country will wane up to find that it has
been sleeping in a bed of bombshells.
The debt, now two thousand millions, or
with gold at two hundred, four thousand
millions, will hang like a nightmare over the
East. A dr-bt exempt from taxation is soon
wiped off. The Confederate bonds, the j
French assignats, and our Continental mon- [,
ey are instances of litis wiping out process.
Elect Lincoln and ) our palaces are hovels— \
your rich men are paupers. For the banks
and corporations of the nation are only jun—
ior partners of a concern Iba', if willing to
sacrifice the life of a nation for a new lease of i
power, would as wdlingly become insolvent i
in order to have the picklings arising front
winding up the estate. [Laughter ]
1 ask again what has occurred to change '
public sentiment in fav .r of Mr. Lincoln ?
Is he the same man that Pomeroy denounced?
that Chaso said was unfit for power ; that
Ben Wade attacked ? that Winter Davis
jeered at ? Is it the same Lincoln that Fre
rnont pictured as a Tyrant and Usurper?—
that Dr. Cheever called Knave, and Wendell
Phillips, Villain ? It cannot be. What has
happened to this man, who is so
eloduent in Philadelphia, the same that vili- '
fied the President at Cleveland ? Oh, my
country ! what crime hast thou committed
that thou shouldst be so shamefully betray
ed ?
I
IMPEACHMENT OF THE PRESIDENT.
When, in the course of human events, it
becomes necessary to impeach the Presi- j

Dtath of Chief Justice Taney,
[From the Age, Oct 14.]
Roger B. Taney, Chief .Just ice of the Unit
ed S'ates, died at hie residence in Washing- j
ton, on the ]2Hi inst., in the 83d year of his '
i age, and thirtieth of the tenure of h'.s high i
office. Well may the nation mourn at the !
! bereavement. A great and good man lias
I gone from us, and gone, too, when we most
I needed the influenoe of such men ; and we
: repeat, in every State of the ancient Union—
-1 in th council chambers, and camps of the
North of the South, there wi II be genuine sor ,
row and strong expression of respect for his i
' memory,.
Twenty-nine years ago Mr. Taney was ele
vated io the Chief Justicesnip, as the succes
sor of John Marshall, who had held ttie
office for on re than thirty years. Chief Jus- !
t'ce Taney who has survived every member
of the Supreme Court, Except Judge Wayne,
who was on the bench at ihe time of appoint- j
tnent—Siorv, Thompson, McLean, Baldwin
and Birhoiir. He a liaiuistere ! the rmh ~f
office to seven Presidents. IL> has been a
long career of usefulness and honor; and now
in this agony of our federal S3'Bi*tu one feels,
in rccoidmg his death, that another link is i
broken, and as it were, one more rivet torn '
out of the great m lehine of Government, and |
that, too, when it most needed the close Cohe j
sion which such influence gave. There was |
so long as this great constitutional jurist liv- i
ed, a confidence, a sort of repose, a faiih that
there was still some anchotage, which sus- ,
tained tha most despondent. It is all gone i
now. While the horrors of violent deaths
are around us, and m the very crisi of the j
fiercest civil strife the modern world has j
ever seen, auiid the clangor of arms and the
hideous shout of triumph, the quiet, peace ful j
death of 'his old man, close to the edge of
battle, is and will be felt to be most impress
ive.
Chief Justice Taney, died, as he lived, a
brave, undaunted, truly -Loyal" man ; for it
was the Law he wa faithful to- And theu,
too. Tot i'?ery lover of hi? ho*:ntrr remember '
with gratitude, in litis moment of national !
sorrow, what may be described us Chief Jus- <
tica Taney's last prominent public act —his j
a-sertion in tlx* case of the M uylau.l liabeax
corpus, of the right of the Juuic ary to give a
hearing to B prisoner held by military author j
ity. it was a protest—for the defiance of
law by the Executive HttOWed it to be notli- i
intr else —of the real Chief Magistrate of the 1
Nation, against the worst, because imti- j'
ate violation of the Constitution. Let us
honor him for his whole career. L-t us es
pecially honor him fur the closing act of it.—
Sincerely anxious to mingle no wor 1 of un
kindnes, with these wolds of praise, it is still *
impossible for us to be silent as to the future.
Although the function of Federal Chief Jus- j
tice, under existing circumstances and, with
the necessary decadence of judicial indepen- ;
dunce which war ami its mischievous iutiu. j
ence involve, will be far less important and
dignified than it has been. 8 till, as a mere
mutter of picturesque interest, we may La
excused for some soucitude as to the success- j
' or of Jay. and Rutledge, and Ellsworth, and
Marshall and Taney. Who will be appointed ,
by Mr. Lincoln, is a question on the lips of
! every thoughtful man. It is beyond the |
' scope of our except in this, that j
be it who it may, pure judicial independence
will hardly be rt quired as a qualification. The
Administration has too many unadjneated
political questions to permit it to he indepen
dent itself ; and we look forward to one more
I dismal spectacle in our day of ugly visions
of the Federal Jodie.ary tottlring to the
grave, which threatens to swallow up all that
once was dear to us.

SOMETHING FOR LABORING MEN TO
CONSIDER!
BILL OF GOQDS PDRUHASDD IN 1810
bd 1804.
In the good old IKun c; rt c D iys, not more
than four years ago, the following till of
goods was pure ..ase lin the town of Scran
*ldn: ' ■ - - I * fiC yjF XX a. jls.

10 " Merrimac Calico,
$5.55
18GI.
But the people wanted a change. Titey
got it, and such a change i Ilaru it the
same bill purchased now under the reign of
II- neet (?) Abe.
5 lbs Butter $2 75
1 •' Oolong Tea, 1,75
5 * Rio Coffee $,50
14 " Porto Rico Sugar, 3,50
12 Yds Brown Sheeting, 9.00
10 " Merriuiac Calico, 4.00
$23~50
The above are all necessaries that go int
the famdj of every poor man. At the time
the first bill was purchased a mechanic rp
reived $1.50 p-r day— hence it took him
about 3 and a halt days to pay for it.
Now he rece-vefi $2 50 per day ; conse
quent iy it would take Inn abvut 9 and a half
days to earn the same bill, or ncarlv three
time? -■ '"iig. And ilos is the effect of the
big wages that the Shodi* ites talk übnit.

Tile Illoomer t'odume, whi hsimeone (Mrs.
j Bloomer, we suppose) steiupte.l to iutro.lu te -ours
j years since, ;*o learn from tha very hig'i-st I 1 :.i -
tie auihority, is n.w about to be revived unler
more favorable auspit-es.
Die reason it H is -o g n rally tib icej, is priha
bly owing to the fact that it wu< so roujily ad-pt
i ed by "tho stronger mneied worn on. and weak min!-
led tuen aud to the fact that ns an nut loor, walk
I ing habit, it is not :ta elegant and gra<;eful as tb
bnia-1, flowing skirts. Ladies who eugago in hns
work, and euiinarT employments, after several
years xperience, have discovered that hoops ure
not convenient in the kitchen. The Bloomer is
therefore receiving a m re favorable Consideration
thau heretofore
Frmn certain hints, we sheuld not be surprised to
find the short skirts and turk'i-h trowsors on the wo
men that 'tends our babies, and boils our potatoes,
fl this curtailing of skirts will alsi curtail our bills
with the calico dealers, we shall be more easily rec
onciled to the innovation.
NOTE.— Our friends who wear boots, and chew to
bacco who may be nervous on the subject of domes
tic usurpation of the distinguishing garment, ure ad
vised to prepare for sc-veie trials,
Cuffs and Collars.—X thing is m,re necessary
| to complete a toilette than tiue and becoming cuffs
: a.id collars. Ever)' lady know? that, but all do not
j kn ov just where to suit themselves with new styles
| and so stick to the old-fashi uu I shapes worn for years
I'ropping in the other day at our fiiepd's, Messrs.
IST,,TT A BALDW i>, 505 Broadway, wo found that
they had been busv in supplying the public with
these articles in every new and elegant designs
Amongst thenr w noticed parti- ul irly three kinds,
of cuff?. One very broad and. plain, the Empress
by name,fastened with three golden buttons; anoth
er trimmed with Valenciennc3 laecu delicately flut
' ,
ed ; an ! still a third, called the Christina cuff, fast
ened with two buttons, and with an embroidered la
pel, the variety of the emhroi lerv pattterrs being
surprising. In addition to the3e,the "Louisa sleeve
so arranged that the hand cau be slipped through
i without u rbuttonir.g The -Empress and Alc-xanl
ria sleeve.is triiume-1 elegant'y, an 1 somO very f-c*
' coming double cuffs- Ladies who dasiio to be ne.it
' and elegant c-an do no better than to call at. this es
tablishment nnd SUJH ly themselves. Collars a ls
made to match all styles of cuffs anil sleeve?. '-d
are so elegantly "dene uj." that they look •--
cast in a mopld.
