"MODERN DENOCRACY"AND GOLD FEEDER
AIISM

me pnteh ueUnocTHcy OF tue present day or rather
present ocofocoism, is nothing else than the ultraism
Of old Federalism, as every man Of Intelligence must
see, rather another has sad 'ls ,corst of the
old federal pnrty ocos while the more moderate s.
more honest of that party belong 10 tn, Wing party
Yes, such men rs Henry Hubbard and james Blu
channn leading spirits in the ranks Of the oppo-
nents of the Wings And well they may be-ror in
other days, the Republican Party were for Protoc-
tive Tariff, and n National Currency the
Wings now while the hoheaded fed eralists opposed
both; as do the locofocos now.
Our attention called TO this subject by noticing
he manner in which certain old Vermont rederaliss
control almost exclusively the doinss and measures
of the selfstyed democrats Of the State As for in
stanceat their State Convention the 4th the Hon
Charles Lindsey, of Niiddlebury, President, while
Luther d. Hunt, Of st. Abans, made the nominations
Of all the State Ocers-bOth old ederass of the al
TIA stamp, and the latter leading Opposer of the last
war in the Legislature of Vermont. or course, he is
consisten-Ile then bitter opponent of Henry
Clay, as he now is;-aud the wonder is, how any
real Republican orother days can be led off by such
old fcderaIis,s TO oppose the man Henry Clay-who
upheld the right arm Of Madison in defence of his
country! Yet, there are few SUCH but they hardly
10 be of the fact that certain old leaders
ofthe opposition to the Republican party 1912 are
the master spirits Of the party with which they now
act For the truth of this appeal to the two promi

fact, that until his recent decease, Gov. Chittenden
who refused TO call out the militia in the last war,
was coadntor with Hunt and Lindsey in promoting

Dreadful Riots in Philadelphia

On Monday afternoon the native American party
had Il large meeting at the junction OF Second and
Master streets. The speaking had hardly begun,
when they were dispersed by storm, and ad journ
ed to the market house. Here l.. G. Levin began
to address the assembly, when fight commenced
between two men, named Fields and Nc Laugh
lin; shot was fired from the Hibernia hose house,
and general action with muskets, pistols, clubs,
stones and brickbats ensued women mingling in
the melee, and urging on the combattants. Three
houses in Market and CadaWallader streets were
partially demolished, as was subsequently the Hib-
erna hosehouse. The house of widow woman
into which man ran was attacked, its doors were
broken open and the rioters rushed in and broke
the furniture into fragments. The people at the
market house, however, maintained their ground,
and the assallants were retreatng, when being re-
Inforced Wy Irshmen on the Germantown road,
they returned to the Charge, and the native Ameri-
cans reiterated in turn under sharp fire of every
kind of missile, and discharges of musket carried
by grey-headed man who wore seal skin cap,
Many persons were wounded.
In the evening large body of native Americans
gathered in Second street, and hostllltes were re-
ncwed. About 10 O'Clock an attempt was made by
part of the crowd to burn down the fence which
cncloseS the nunnery. They were fired upon by a
party of lrish and five of them shot.
! Our city is a general scene Of alarm and confus-
ion-Kensington is the theatre of an unprecedent-
cd riot, of conAagration and bloodShed-the fruits
of the quarrel between the Native Americans and
Irish Catholics We have only room to continue
the account of death and devastation commenced
yesterday, combining ourselves to the facts as we
can gaher them, without comment.
During the forenoon of yesterday the scene o
Mondays disturbance was remarkably quiet TO
the time and circumstances, most ofthe poor Irisl
were leaving their houses, and moving what the.
could ofther property At the corners and in thu
squares around the battle ground were collected
crowds of Native Americans, conversing witt
much excitement upon the doings of Monday, ant
ready, iii moment, to join in general riot.
About ten O'Clock large party of Native Amer
leans assembled at Second and Master streets, ant
marched in procession through the district of Ken
sington, passing the Market house where the fgh
took place on Monday evening and last night Il
the procession was carried the large flag whic
had been raised on Monday, and which was con
h sderably torn. Preceding this was banner born
by one man, and having upon its front this inscrr

THIS is THE FLAG THAT HAS BEEN
TRAMPLED UPON
BY THE IRISH PAPISTS!

The procession moved down Third street to the
heart ofthe city, and cheered at some of the news
paper offceS-groaning at others.
In the afternoon the Natives assembled in indie
pendence Square, numbering form two to three
thousand. Ameeting was organized, aud the crowd
was addressed by Mr.. j. Jack From thence they
proceeded in procession to Kensington, headed by
Mr. Jack, and marched to Second and Master
streets then to the Washington street market
where the fights had occurred on Monday Here
they again organizcda meeting, and Mr.. Jack again
mounted the stage to address them. 1t was about
O'Clock P. M.
These ferocious and bloody conflicts continued
unchecked during the whole of Wednesday. The
demonacal spirit of revenge with which the Ma
tives seem to be actuated spurned all CONTROL and
trampled on all the considerations of humanity, by
which even savages i'll a state of war, allow them
selves to be restrained The strength of this feel
ing, and the full vigor with which it burst out on
Monday, proves concusively that the whole is the
breaking forth of an existing but underground
passion, Of which the first slight disturbance on
Monday was but the occasion. The cause is in
that spirit Of hatred toward the Irish Catholics
which has been for years seduously incnloated by
a class of Jacobites and ono popery" disclaimers.
1t is not repubIcapism, but oRANGEIsM,-unnatu-
raj, unjust, ungenIa to our country and its institu-
tons. We proceed to condense from the papers
an account of Wednesdays and Thursdays pro-
lceednge.

Mr. Calhoun and the Free cOIOred people,

The free people ofcolor ofthe city of New York
have held Mass Meeting, to consider the caIum-
MES recently uttered aganstthe class to which they
belong by Johu G. Calhoun, in letter to the Hon.
Richard Packenham In this communication, it
will be remembered, the Secretary advances state
ments, based upon the mschevous thrice-refuted,
and guilty errors ofthe last Census, goiug to prove
that state ofslayery is, physically, intellectually
and morally, the happiest condition of which the
coored people of this country are susceptible. A
Committee of nine was appointed to examine and
refute these false statements, and report the same
IN Il memorial addressed to the Senate of the Uni
ted States, praying that body to take means for
putting the State Department in possession of cor
rect statements in regard to the condition of the
various classes of the population of these States.
This memorial was drawn up with signal ability
by the Committee, of which James McCune Smith
was chairman, and read at an adjourned meeting,
Friday evening, May 8. 1t brings forward an IT.
Irresistible force oacts against the statements of the
Secretary showing the utter falsity of the Census
returns upon which they were founded. The me-
mortal was sent to the Hon. Rufus Choate Of the
Senate, for presentation to that body Christian

from this place,
4haue some remarks which did not differ very
much from what had been said by Mr.. N. The
rest of the evening was occupied in firing random
shots by volunteer speakers. They had much to
say about Wing principles, which they defined to
be, protective tariff and destruction to the aboli-
'tiOn and loco" parties Most of the speakers
thought the Wings must succeed whether they
did anything not, but tall boy with spectacles
on, begged leave to differ from the gentlemen who
preceded him for it was his opinion that the
Wings had not commenced their campaign of 1914
under the same suspicious circumstances that
cheered their hearts in 1910. A faction, which, at
that time was too small and contemplate to de-
serve passing notice, had now increased to
mighty host, and they had much to fear from their
united efforts. They were nearly all office seek
erS and desperadoes who, led on by a blind zeal,
would resort to any means or measures to secure
their object and if the wings succeeded they must
do it by mighty effort. He put the brand of
Cain on all of the abotionists, which did not ex-
acIly accord with the sentiments expressed by the
other speakers, that they were all aboitionsts.- q
On the whole, he fired too heavy charge and it
Kicked back Probably it would have been full as
well for the wing cause if he had stayed at home
with his mother. The Constitution of the why
Club was presented at the close of the meeting
and after good deal of drumming up they sue
ceeded in obtaining few signers. A great effort
was made to get up some steam, but it went hard
We felt perfectly disguised with the corruption
and hollow-hearted professions of party to which
we were once attached, but which has long since
forfeited all claim to the sympathy and support Of
every true friend of liberty or lover of his coun-
try. A SPECTATOR.

FIRE AT OLD TowN.-Ftue Liues Iosl!-Be-

store, occupied as a dwelling house, near the rail
veIoped in flames. 1t was a perfect Undertook, and
rapid was the progress of the fire, that Mr.. Ben
jamin De Vaux, and four children of Joseph De
Vaux, the brother of Benjamin, persisted in the
flames A calamity so horrible, it has never been
our lot to record happening in this vicinity and
long may it be ere we shall be called to record an
other. Martyrdom has something connected with
it to nerve up the soul to meet it. But suddenly
to be awakened, only to expire in the flames, pre-
sents the most unmltigated picture of horror lnag-
ination can conceve.-Bangor Gas.
