DEMocRAc1.-fhere have been many defini-
tons oil Democracy, as we'll as many modes of
Its application. 'Bnnce," says Louis Napo-
leon, sis Democratic, but not Republican. l
understand By Democracy the government of
one by the will of ell; and by republic the
government Of several obeying system"
Our own political history has illustrated
both definitions. Gen. Jackson regarded him.
self as the representative of the sovereignty OF
the people, a majority Of whom placed him in
the Presidency. After his re-eleclion'he OPEN
~ took the ground that all the political opn-
ions which he had advanced, received, from the
fact of his reelection. the seal of popular APP
proval. His cabinet officers wee responsible
10 him; he required that his cabinet should be
unit. Inasmuch as sovereignty could not ex-
list IN two distinct embodiments, he regarded
Congress as factious and rebellious whenever it
differed from him or disapproved of his acts
The theory of the government of one by the
will ofall was the theory of the Jackson adj
ministfation-although the will of the one had
pretty strong renctlve power upon the con,
stituent body.
The second definition may find its illustra
ton liz MIR. Folks term. 1.-The government o.
several obeying system defines precisely the
Baltimore Convention of 1874, which laiC
down the chart by which the administration O
MIR. Polk was to be guided. Louis Napoleon
intended to designate republic by his defini
tions; and when the s'system" which is obeyet
is the constitution, and the Several who gov
ern according to itare the various functions re
presenting severally the Executive, the Legis
iative and the Judicial departments, then in
deed a true republican government is described
But Mr. Folks system was differept,-Ball
