On Our part, we see the lnatter in diHercn
hght. whatever shades OF opinion there may b.
among us, we cannot recognize the resemblance,
, to the Hero of New Orleans in the Flemish doub
that are hawked about the streets, from the shop
| OF the fair-tained An,i-Jackson Conventions. =

shades OF Rembrandt without his heayepiy ray,

,oa' In resistance TO open violence. But zoe shud-
ger at dangers which approdch unseen like de-
suoylng pestence; at the poison OF political in
u'Sue which intectS the Constitution and with
blood.
FROM the realities OF the past we look with fear
,u ~: n''ueip9uonS TO the future. We have no mis-
giVlnSs OF open violence. We "scent the APP
proach oil tyranny in the t0inted breeze" We
dePrecate corruption aud trick in all their forms
iiohi the devices of Maciavel and the practices
OF Waipoie, to the juggle of Falconi, and the
cheats OF Scapn We may be wrong: But
right or wrong, in these opinions pronrietv de
mands that while we hold them. we sboniI not
iold our arms in supneness or neutrality While
we mold them, we cannot doubt which OF the two

II is precisely at a moment like this that mac
tivity becomes culpable and neutrality without

expects every man to do his duty 1t is at
such moment, that what is usually our privilege
becomes our solem duty: 1t is at such moment
that TO retire from the polls, is to abandon our
