Tried then, as we have said, BY its own stan

the Administration stands repudiated BY the re-
personalities Of Democracy
The Administration Of James Buchanan has
been, from first 70 last, humiliatng and dis
graceful failure. It's blind, laundering policy,

Providence journal says, with a deal Of truth
The Democratic administration has failed;
the Democratic party in Congress has broken
down; II cannot carry measure; it cannot pass
an appropriation bill. The chairman Of the
committee OF ways and means, the leader OF
the House, the head Of the insolent party that
has lived upon its abuse and representation
OF the Republicans, has been compelled to make
personal appeal to these same Republicans to
save the administration from the opposition Of
It's own extreme men. The diplomatic and con.
suiar bill would have been lost but for the pity

comes from the Democrats; all the ANNOYANCE
winch the President experiences on the great
measure OF finance comes from his own cabinet
and from his own party in Congress. With
plain necessity before him, with the remedy
just as plain, with bankruptcy staring the gov

evil hour, entrusted with the highest respon-
sibliitles, refuse to vote an ordinary appropri- |

carrying out the law for the suppression Of the |

Mr.. Buchanan can safely turn from the un- |
reasonable, the suicidal opposition Of bis friends |
TO the calm, patriotic temper of the men whom |
he and his party have insulted through his |
whole term Of Office. They will stand BY the |
government in its just needs and requirements,

necessary means OF its support, whoever adj
ministers IT, But they will not, we hope they
viii not, vote away money that is not in the
treasury, and that can only be placed there by
loans ior whose payment there is no provision;
they will not adept Mr.. Cobb's plan Of running
heedessly in debt, and trusting to "sometbing I
