from his colleague, Mr.. Cox, whether
the latter party was Tor or.against the

Mr.. Cox rose to pay his respects to
his colleague for few moments, and
as the crowd gathered around him, he
said that Mr.. GiddiRgs knew
that the Democratic members Of the
former session voted that it was mex.
pedient and unjust to restore the Afri-
can slave.trade, and that the Demo.
cratic party in the North and South
was opposed to it.
Mr.. Giddings remarked that he
alluded to the coastwise slave trade,
Mr.. Cox said that Mr.. Giddings
had undertaken to place the Demo
cratic party as the pro.slavery party,
when lie know that it was neither pro
nor anti'slavery, but placed itself on
the doctrine of leaving the peo.

The Principles and Organization

All men who are honestly and sim

party, are 50, from a convictien that
its principles are founded ia justice
and truth-and these applied to the
science and practical workings of gov
,rnment tend to equality and guaran.
lee the greatest good to the greatest
number. "TheIe are no necessary
evils in government--its evils exist
only in it's abuses" and it is the ms.
sion OF the.Democratic party to cor.
rect all errors and abuses, and then
under its guidance government, "like
lhe dews of Heaven, will dispense its
blessings alike upon the rich and the
pnor-thcn it will be an unqualified
blessing" To be efficient, the Dem
rcratic party must have an organiza-
ton, and that organization must be
respected. 1t must be held sacred by
Ill the members OF the party.
An individual may asseyerate un.
tilhe is black in the face, that he is a
Dcmocrat--he may proclaim it from
the bouse.tops, from the market plac-
IS and high-ways--but unless his
works correspond hi his profess.
IONS, we would not give a strawtor his
Democracy. He must be known by
his works, and if while thus profess
ing Democracy, he repudiates the or
ganization of his party, and votes
with the Opposition, we think he can
not stand the test; for his acts are ef.
irchve to overthrow the principles lie
Processes, and to Substitute those of
the opposite party.
Among dle duties incumbent upon
, every Democrat--no one is more i'm.
perative, than the support Of the tick
ct OF his party fairly presented to him
by its organization. No politician
who does not recognize this obliga,
tion to its fullest extent is safe, and
the man who bolts the ticket, canhave
no claim upon the party for its pat
ronage or support; and il such an one
has succeeded to a position of trust or
profit through the organization Of the
party, and then SO far forgets his obi
cations and duties as a member of it,
as to cooperate with our opponents
to defeat our regular nominations, he
is totally inexcusable. No public

Another Beautiful Bank Trans

"Time, patience and perseverance,
it is said, "will accomplish every
thing" and they are certainly doing
something towards removing the mys-
terry that hung like dark cloud over
the State Treasury at the time the
defalcation was discovered. The ac-
counts with several banks were in
"confusion worse confOunded," the
banks Invariably having a decided ad-
vantage. The following facts are
CLEANED from the State Treasurers
Report by the.Statesman:
The Treasurer finds that the Canal
Bank Of Cleveland made an over is.
sue of StS,5O0. There was surplus
in his hands, of its funds, after the
redemption Of all tho notes legally
outstanding. lie applied tito the re.
deRption Of the over issues as far as
liz would GO. 1t is exhausted and
leaves Sl2,S96 unrcdeemed. Mr..
Armstrong, the Receiver Of the
Bank, obtained the following account
of this transaction from j. G. Bres.
lin
"a few months sprovious to the fail.
ure OF the Bank, a Mr.. McMillen, of
Akron, who was largely interested in
the Bank, came into the Treasury, and
inquired if he (Breslin) had received
$50, 900 of Ohio State Stocks on ac-
count of the Canal Bank Of Cleveland,
and on being informed that no such
stocks had arrived, manifested consid-
cradle surprise, re marking at the
came sime, that they had bought that
amount OF stocks OF Messrs. Atwood
& Co., and had ordered them trans.
ferred, and forwarded to this Office,
immediately, as they were in great
want of circulation. lie requested
Mr.. Breslin to have that amount Of
notes signed, and registered, 80 as to-
he ready for delivery Immediately on
receipt Of the bonds. Mr.. Bres!in
ordered the Registrar to prepare the
notes. The next day, Mr.. McMillen|
called again, and inquired II the
bonds had arrived, aud being answer
ed in tho negative, requested Mr..
Breslin to let him take the amount of
notes which had been numbered and
registered, SlS,50O, that the bonds
would certainly arrive that day; that
Messrs. Atwood & Co. had probably
sent the bonds tothc Bank at Uleve-
land, instead OF direct to the Treasu.
ry as requested, and that the Bank
would send them Immediately on ar-
rival. Relying on this statement, he
gave him the circulation but the bonds
never came"
The books OF the bank cerrobor-
ate this statement. The Cashier is.
found crediting himself as deposi-
tor with the amount McMilen took
away The credit is afterwards trans.
tcrred to the President, Hewitt,
against whom suit has been brought
to recover il, he having claimed it as
