THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF CONGRESS

AND NEWSPAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
1t will be by the annexed extract from a
letter of General Washington to David Stewart,
dated New York. I7th March. 1890. that the idea
of such u paper as propose to make the Globe
originated in the mind OF the Father of his Coun-
try. He said:
sIt isto be lamented that the editors of TIE dif-
ferent Gazettes in the Union do not more general
ly and more correctly (instead Of stu6iag their
papers with scurrility and nonsensical declan,a-
ton. which few would read If they were appraised
of the contents) publish the debates in Congress
on all great national questions. The principle.
upon which the difference of opinion arises. as
well as the decisions, would then come fully be.
fore the public, and afford the best data for its
judgment" -Sparks's Writings Of Washington

Neighbor, you are in error as usual.
Why, man, there are plenty 'better qua

tai IS, who bolted their principles at the
last Legislature, for the sake of elevating
Broderick to the United States Senate.
And there are 40 odd who bolted the

are we'll "qualiied." But Of all, we think

Auburn, JULY Is, 1854.
The "Seceders.''


crat we notice the proceedings of the
Broderick convention are published with
an address,, reported by the consistent
MIR. Tuttle, attached to which are vari-
GUS names, some Of whom never entered
the convention nor took any notice OF its
proceedings.
We had intended to 60 into full in
vestgation of their course in the regular
convention, but our correspondent "Dem-
ocrat" has to some extent saved US the
trouble. The democracy of this county
can now see how much dependence can
he placed upon the "love" for democratic
principles, which the Brodericktes have
so loudly professed. They came into the
County Convention, and finding they
were in the minority "ssceded," or, ac-
cording to the popular term, bolted.-
They have put forth to the world bogus
ticket, and by so doing have declared to
the democracy Of this county, they will
continue to rule or else they will ruin. -
But happily for true democracy this i'm
piled threat has no terrors. All feel and
known that the time has arrived when
more reliable democrats must assume the
reins of power. When those who have
disgraced the principles of the party must
retire. From this decision there is no
escaping.
Ascur correspondent says, it will be
asked, il they had majority in conven-
tion, why was it they left it.? Any man
knows that in our public assemblages a
majority rules, and everybody is satisfied
that il the seceders had happened to have
had q majority they never would have
Withdrawn.
They charge the presiding officer, Dr..
Gate, with being partial and biased in bis
decisions. There is no truth in the
charge, and no one can truthfnlly make it.
His earnest desire was to deal fairly and
impartially with. all, and he did so in all
bis decisions.
The committee on Credentials was
composed Of honorable and intelligent
gentlemen, whose time was occupied for
three long hours in examination of ere.
dentials and an investigation of the rights
Of contestants. Contesting parties for
seats, went before that committee with
their witnesses, and In accordance with
the evidence were the delegates, entitled
to their seats, reported to the convention.
G. A. futile was before the committee,
and got his seat as proxy, from one of
the Mad Canon delegates. With perfect
impartiaIjty was the right to every seat
investigated.
The report Of the committee went to
the Convention and was received, after
which contested seats came up for final
disposition, all the contestants being al
lowed to vote. But because the Brode-
rickitcs could not vote in such men as
they wanted to use, they swore-left-
scccded-boltetl the Convention, and rails
eef their flag Of rebellion. Well, let it
foat 1t will cost them much, to keep it
Hying-to raise it, who knows how ,nuchs
And ere it comes down, they will find it
has cost them their political standing and
reputation. They have dug their own
graves, may they rest in peace where the
people will lay them-in oblivion
