DEMOCRACY.


Agcol name is tower of strength. The
good old E,ShioRel name OfDemOcrats whi;h il
applet TO the n; t or Il purity IN this country
carries with it prs ige of success. The abOm-
inably stupid name which the KhJw \, ling or
Cayenne party adopted when it sprung into ex-
stence, was evidence Of tins early decay Of that
party. Indeed, they became dsgnsted at them
selves aud tried to be called Americans. The
adoption of this title by Iarty protesting the
tenetS which they did, was equally impudent
and absurd. True Americans never profess such
narrow views as the Know Nofhings did. They
favor equal and exact justice and the largest lib
erty to all their fellow citizens, native or adop-
ted The biSotry 'ofthe pseudo American par
ty was mconSonant with the true American
feeling, and the radical nonsense upon which it
was based has destroyed the party after a very
brief existence. Look at Kentucky! Look at
every district where Know Nothingism had
loot hold The eabalistic order is repndiated
by those who were once its warmest advo-
Gates.
The Black Republicans. o., as, they tsrui
thcmse YES, the Rtpublicans, have also lop ed
name, expreSsiyeof nothing as Distinguishing 4
party. In republic all are republicans: The
members of the Council of Three, and the Coun-
Gil of Ten, in the Venetian Republic, were Re-
foes to rcpublicon institutions, and bitterly an
im;cal to civil liberty.
! The most distinctive, expressive and popular
name which any party in the Unilef States has
ever adopted is that Of Democrat. The appsla-
tionis at once understood 70 all tesIneasla libe
raj, large minded, just and patriotic member OF
the Republic-one wi D e actions as well as his
professions are iavofable to s'tlie greatest good
for the greatest NUMBER lhs Democrat does
not care for section, clique orclassi he sactS for
thecountry yena the whole elesscoantry.asHisc counr,
trymep are the people, and for the people he
Iabors, and to tlieirinteiest| he desotes His tss
ents and directs his aims,
! aANetPresultie it willaiof at the present time
be denied that with the exception Of the Demo
cratic and Black Republican parties, tn IRE arc
no Others (which hsve any vitality or are entitled
to the least consideration The latter il made
up of such bad m Il and poor nj lteris5, thst
it cannot hope to stand against the former with
its long Established and wen tried principles, its
glUionS traditions, AMI its histories OF success.
y The name Republican eau never secure tild
adhesion to that pIrty Of the Intelligent foreign
er, as the name of Democrat has done for twen-
ty-fve years past: The Know Nothing element
Of Black Repubhcdnisn forbds that The Re-
publican can never become like the DeInoeratic,
national party, for its aims and its ends are to
create anarchy and rliin and discard one portion
ofthe country, because its domestic Institutions
are not What they visit The Republicans CAM
not look upon the country as a lirfit--they di-
vide tipto north and Il southland while pro-.
Tossing to devote themselves to the interests of
the one, they practically are working to destroy
the other.
The glorioils name Of Dem,crat represents d
