Our heighboFs 81 the Democrat still
whiting under tie Truth Of our remarks
in relation % Democratic principles and their
tendency. II sheIr issue 81 last geek ore Of
the editors gives vent 70 81 the pent.up
venom and lisslensss q his heart and still
less intellect, in abuse of sahe wffter of GER
tain articles which have appeared il this pa
per under the caption Of 's7he P0liticol
Tendency Of the Country Although
both the editors Of the Democrat are res.
ponsible for their editorials which appear in
that paper. 1T requires 10 great skin or
sagacity to discover" that the Terdant Jun
Tor Of the Democrat is THE writer Of The
article IN question. and we wiz therefore
rdof him Of lis lion s robe md hang i cali
skin there, as ct emblem Of intellectual
and historical abilities.
The Junior editor Of the Democrat says.
.the writer Of the articles in the Wing at
which he seems to have taken so much of
fenee- probably because he fell himself In
cluded among the afour-ffths' fearing
che light Of day had sought refuge behind
a pettieoat.' The Junior has entirely mis-
taken US: not fearing the light Of day or the
face of man, we are the last person to seek
refuge behind female breastwork or any
other fertilization, save the truth of our ar
guments-more especially when we come in
contact with sueh intellsets as the Junior edi-
tor Of the Democrat.
The Jnnior, after giving full vent to his
.billingsgate. says that he 'bone lightly up.
on the latch string. lest we Ehel should
frighten" US ''to seek more secure retreat
1.-The abode of Utter Silence" Gracious
heaven, we. frightened into utter silence
by the Junior editor of the Democrat-neyer'
The last man on earth that could brighten
anythig-not even a 'pitticout't But the
fact is. some allowance must be made for
the Junior-the bump of self-esteem being
very largely developed-he has somewhat
outgrown his clothes. and is now. We fear,
Iaboring under mental idiosynaracy called
the ..swell head, and consequently he
thinks himself Sir Oracle. and when he
speaks. all else must be silent.
The Junior says that if We should con
tinue our remarks upon the subject Of Dem
oeratic tendencies. he shall be compelled
to deal with Us in manner that shall
tell '.Teu' vhat2 Your ignorance of
the Past History of Nations: if 50. you
have already informed your readers that
you know nothing of the history Of the:
Past, wheu ron assert that Past History re-
flutes every argument We have adduced re-.
Iatiye to the tendency Of democratic princi
pies to the ruin of governments, when eve
ry man who knows anything of the down
fall of Nations, knows that their destruction
was caused By Democracy But il is stid
that ignorance is bliss: if SO. the Junior
editor Of the Democrat is certainly happy
fellow, for never mas ignorance of the Past
more fully displayed or acknowledged by any
'.preteader'' than by the Junior, in regard
to the Past History Of Nations.
Again, the Junior says, eff what little.
We did say was .ovsrspAelning. what would
hare been Che case had We given full vent
to our feelings Of indignation. Heaven
only knows, perfect anihilation ofsus We
suppose, judging from the mid and eourte-
ous bearing Of the article before us But
We thank him for bis forbearance and ten
derness Of sheart FOR We might stand bull
Its hladgeons anything, but should the
Junior have ssgisenfull vent to his feelings
q indignation, our 'sufferings would have
