OLD DEMOCRATS AND NEW DEM
OCRATS,


In the discussion Of all subjects, if the at
tainment Of truth be our object, calmness g.
moderation are essential agents in the enqui-
ry. With regret have seen illusions in your
paper to distinction attempted to be made
between old Democrats and Tolerationists !;
such distinction is manifestiy unjust, and
from the nature OF things can he determined
by no criteria. Old and New are relative terms.
What time is to bestow the character of an
old Democrat? 1901, when Mr.. Jefferson was
elected President? The hand of time has re-
moved the worthless of that day, or sprinkled
their heads with the frosts of age. Within
that period infancy has attained manhood. &
maturity has yielded to the impotency of
age.
Is 1904, or 1906, the criterion! probably
one half of the republican freemen now 10 ex-
istenee in law have been made voters since
those perilous times.
Look at the nominations of that time and
how few now survive. The Hon. John WelCh
is the only republican then in nomination now
alive and resident in Litchaeld County. Your

BOardman, aud Skinner, and Seymour have
gone lamentcd to their long account followed
by the blessing of thousands.
Is 1915 the period, from which an old dem
Ocrat may date his birth IL SO federation
ist is not to be distinguished from a democrat.
All men attentive to the improvement made
by republicans and who have given their aid
to enforce republican principles in their puri-
ty, are to be regarded as republicans. A cap
tious disposition towards republicans & ha-
tired and opposition 10 tine adoption Ofthe con-
stitutiOn, measure that alone ensured repub
licanism in Connecticut, mark with unerring
accuracy the anti-repubcan.
This distinction regret as inexpedient, be-
Cause it scatters the seeds of discord among
the party that have enough to do to repel
their ancient enemy. Their torpidity is the
torpOr of the serpent chilled by the frost Of
adversely, but that can bite with deadly VEN
ON when enliyened by Il single ray Of pros
perity.
But my brethren, with GOODNESS let us exa-
mine the list of public officers and see if the
men that came to the aid of republicanism in
1916, and by their numbers and talents won
the victory conformity with those who had
before Joined the republican banner, let US
see if those men have all the Offices. They
have not third.
The Superior Court is made up Of two old
Democrats, two old Federalists, and one ToI-
erationst Out of "a County Court Judges,
seven are old Federalists, eleven old Demo
Gratis, and six Tolerationists. OF eight Sher-
IFS, six are old Democrats, and two Tolera-
tionsts. OF the SO Judges of Probate, OF
are old Democrats, nine Tolrratonists, and
five Federalists. Ont of IS officers, the Tol-
eratonists (by this mean those who voted
with the FederaIists in 1910 have eighteen
Offices. The Federalists have fourteen. The
old Democrats forty-two. These estimates
are very near correct, and cannot be incorrect
to vary the result essentially. 1t demonstrates,
thas the "new recruits" as they have some
times been called, have participated but little
more in public favors than the federalist them
seIvs. In congress, both senators are old
democrats in the House, two out of six
are to!erationists. forbear remark. 1t is
not my object to throw my voice upon the
public ear, but to merely gather information
and present it with candour to my republican
brethren. Men will make their own conclu-
sons as they should, in their own way.

| The House came to a resolutionlto take a

In the Senate Feb. 26 the Committee
on the Militia reported the bill for the a.

course which regard to our interest calls
upon us to adopt. We can only give
brief abstract of his remarks, which we

which was the bill to provide for the set

FOR THE WATcnMAH.

III resighins the several civil Offices which he
! held, Gen. Jackson showed either want OF patriot
4 ism Or ability to perform the duties incumbent up.
on him. TIE latter is the palmer aud truer cause
II he thought himself the most competent person
in the State country, to fill the offices which he
held, he certainly leopatded the interests of the
people by making vacancy by resignation, which
must be supplied by inferior abilities. But the
probability is that be felt his inability to transact
! the business incident to his situation; therefore,
to his credit, and honor the station, he throw
ed up his commissions TO better hands. His public
ci, Office, have been those in which man Of SUI
pcrior abilities would have shone with ustre hon
orabc to his country and pre-emlnently creditable
to himself. But Gen. Jackson's name is not sound
ed abroad with claims Of superior mental qualiica-
tons. He was unknown to the United States pre-
vous to the last war. There was locality in his
duties. confined influence of his actions, which
kept him hidden and so inferior was his mind that
when he was placed in a situation where talents
might have shone in the services of his country at
large, he found himself above the grade to which
nature had adapted him, ant, wisely shrunk from
the duties incumbent upon Senator. Can that
man who was unable to perform the less RESPONSE
BILE duties of Senator, be considered capable to
transact the affairs of nation of q millions of peo-
pie? Shall he who thought himself unable to pre-
side over the destnes and interests OF the United
States, in concert with many men OF acknowledg.
ed talents and long experience be called SUI
pcror genius, suitable for the Presidency J Surely
tile people are not 50 bnde, SO destitute Of com
mon understanding as to be deceived by false us-
tire, or .leIusive sounds Ii they examine the SER
vices Except military of Gen. Jackson, they will
discover that they have all been Of an inferior kind,
not highly honorable to himself nor very serycea-
Bile to his country. AS military man he is deser-
vedly celebrated, but other and opposite qualitica
tons are safer and more desirable in the CHIEF
MAGISTRATE Of the United States. .Hiiitaryar
dor and ambition hare at all times been injurious to
Republics, and when a mans genius is warlike it
is always seeking exercise in con.enial deeds. Is
il not then to be feared that if Gen. jackson be-
comes President, his impctuous disposition, coup
led with his comparative ignoIan AZ Statesman,
will lead the country into difficulties and involve
us in destructive war! RODNEY.
