nzr We commend che careful perusal Of
the following 70 the Messenger It con-
trasts with assertions Of that sheet most
strangely, considering that they are beth
Democratic organs, and that both are &C.
quaintcd with the facts Of the case:
VOICE or THE GERMAN PRESS
The DefalcntIon--uorRRn, Trevits aud
NEedill brought mp with n ashort turns
The following article is literal transla-
tion from the Cincinnati Volks Bldtt, The
leading German paper in Cincinnati,a and a
paper too that supported Morgan and Trev-
1T at tho last election. Read it, Things
are working:
There was onco time when certain man
ifestations were regarded as indications Of
corruption in the Democratic party, but these
manifestations are no longer necessary TO an
nounce TO the world the integrity and mo-
rality Of the party; by its own conduct it an
nounces to the world that it is not only cor
rupt but rotten to tho core. If we need
any proof to substantiate this position, we
think the course pursued by its Press in re-
lation TO the Treasury Defalcation is being
sufficiently ample and conclusive. Not
withstanding the incontestable proofs that
the Treasury Defalcation, or rather embez-
Element Of the public funds had its rise and
progress under the administration of the
Democratic party; in spite Of the warnings
which Democratic Legislatures ignored, and
refused TO consummate the necessary enact
ments to protect the peoples money; not
withstanding the admissions Of Messrs. Nor
gan and Medill that they were well aware
that Breslin was guilty of embezzlement,
and defaulter; Notwithstanding that when
examinations were proposed, they always
were declined or frustrated by the Democ-
racy; Notwithstanding the incontrovertable
fact that it was Democratic officers, chiefly,
who produced the disorder and caused the
deficits. Unblushingly in the face of all
these things docs the Democratic press grow
rancorous, and even Morgan's Press is vent
ing its spleen, and is laboring sedulously TO
fasten its own shame on the young Repub-
liean party aud to impute moro than an or
dinary portion to Gov. Chase. In all past
time the Democratic party has presented no
indications of such thorough corruption as
at the present.
In other days the reserve guard of De-
mocracy still eilbodied some honesty, and
did somo acts in consonance with truth and
purity, but now all seems stepped in yileness
and blows through the same trumpet the
doafening howls of shame.
Chase is the first Governor of Ohio who
has honestly, and with whole heart, deter
mined to arrest, even upon the slightest sus-
picions all official misdemeanors. To him,
more than to any state official, are praises
due for having promptly interfered as gen
uine patriot, not only without regard to party
afinities, but in opposition TO counsel from
mombers of his own party. And this is
now to be disgraced by the meanest and vi
lest of motives which actuate the human
being
The trio Morgan, Medill and Trevitt,
should hide their heads in shame, for they
were the ones who, fully aware of Bieslin's
by side in the campaign, and not only gave
him their votes, but their influence, by which
his reelection was secured; and instead of
uniting with those who really and earnest
ly desire reforms, are now found actively
engaged in fabricating the most miserable
and contemplate subterfuges to conceal
Breslin's villainy, and SO to represent the
transactions that the charge of embezzle-
ment shall rest chiefly on Gibson's should
ers; and they even seek to cover the unim-
peachable Chase with the basest imputa-
tions that were ever coined in tho Slime
and filth Of this corrupt and corupting par
ty. Miserably wretched must be the man,
and desperate indeed his condition, who un-
conditionally submits to the yoke of this
party, and who voluntarily obeys its every
behest whether founded on right or wrong.
