Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1860-05-31
THE CAUSE AND ITS REPRESENTA-.
TIyES.-THE PRINCIPLES AND
THE MEN.

To revive the policy Of the Founders Of
the Republic is, in brief, the sole purpose
OF. the Republican party. Like the strug
gle of the Barons for Magma Charfo. like
the struggle OF the Long Parliament for
the Bill OF Rights, like the protracted and
yet unended struggle of Hungary for her
ancient constitution, like the struggle of
the Colonies themselves against the usur-
pations of the British Government and
Legislature. the struggle of the Republican
party is, not for the establishment of a
new, but for the restoration or consorva-
tism Of the old order Of things, not for
adding to nor dcdncting from. nor in any
way modifying the fair fabric Of our liber
ties, bnt for driving the moncy-changers
out of the temple, breaking the foul idols
which have been ensllrined in its high
places, and resuscitating the pnre rites.
for the celebration Of which it was erected.
The Republican movement, though pro-
ccedinc from below like all great move
ments, is not revolutionary one in any
destructive sense, but simply the resistance
of awakened. alarmed conservatism to the
usurpations of class which has made the
Federal Government mere enginery for
the accomplishment of its designs. and
which At first advanced cautiously with
feline foot, bnt which in those days. by
virtue of its many successes, has become
defiant, aggressive and reckless. Hence,
the Republican party invents no theories.
and propounds no original dogmas.-
Hence, it enunciates no doctrine. and
breaches no scheme which Washington,
Jefferson and their associates have not in
dictated or elaborated. Our platforms,
principles, and the very phrases and COLO
cations in which they are expressed are
not new but historic. The stamp of age,
and OF wise reverend authority is impress
ed indelibly on the whole. To preserve
the original basis of the government. to
purge all its departments. Of the leprosy OF
corruption with which they are covered J, to
keep these departments each in its appoint
ed sphere, to prevent American Democra-
| cy from being perverted into an oligarchy.
| to dover the FREQ labor of the country with
the public; domain. and to guarantee the
rights of the States and the perpetuity OF
| the Union are the great objects Of the Re-
publican organization. We have no new
eyangel to preach, no abstract propositions
to set forth outside the Declaration OF In
dependence, no modern category OF the
Rights of Man to promulgate. We are
content to walk in the ways of the Fathers,
TO follow their footprints and hold fast by
the;r teachings. We fndcno new mean
incs in the Constitution. and refuse tc
accept all new interpretations of that in.
strumcnt. We shnn the mazes, mystic
cations and endless casni>try involved IN
the doctrine Of squatter sovereignty but
I'VE say with the emphasis which twenf,
millions Of freemen can inpart 70 the dec
iaration that the Territories shall be tree
for So ii was ordained in the beginning
/ for their welfare and the geusral welfare--
lusy. for the welfare Of the whole white race
from the frosty Caucasus 20 the storm!

SAVED FROM THE LAST DIsGRAcE-The
New York Leader, prominent Demo
cratic journal in the city of New York. in
its daguerreotype of the Charleston Con-
vention. says:
1--WE congratulate our Democratic brcth-
rem Of the Union on being saved from the
last and worst disgrace which could have
befallen our party. Amidst all the I'M
pleasant, deplorable. and tumultuous in
cidsnts which marked the conduct of certain
parties within thc walls Of the Charleston
Convention; amidst the many disensenu-
ous, not to say dishonorable. tricks to
which certain men Otherwise respectable
did not hesitate to stoop in theiropposition
to Judge Douylas-nevcrtheless. aud in
spite of all this, there was not to be found
in the whole Convention one delegate with
brass enough on his forehead, or Federal
gold enough in his fob, to stand mp in his
place and insult the moral rectitude Of that
body by even suggesting, as the name of a
candidate, that of James Buchanan This
shows, as. indeed, all history teaches, that
there is but one man in each age of coun-
try who can touch bottom in the pit of
political degradation.
Democratic papers should be a little sparing in
their dcnunciations of Old Buck. He has done
the very best he could for the party. Had he not
Slavery. he would have been entirely deserted by
the South, and the party would have been SPLIT up
worse than it is.
