ybat Democracy ~ . done. According 10 De
OcraLic Testimony.

Let the honest voters Of the whole country read the
following manly confessions from leading Democrats
from various sections Of the Union:
when frs; entered Congress- in 1913, the expenses
Of the Government were only SSOOOO,OOO per annum
The country bad gone through the expensive Mexican
war with sixty-hree thousand soldiers in the field for
thirty millions and now, in time Of peace the esti-
mates we're seventy-three millions He believed forty
millions an abundance for the national expense Hon.
4. H. Stephens.
"This Government, sixty-nine years of age scarcely
out Of its sWaddng clothes is making more corrupt uses
OF money in proportion to the amount collected from
the people as honestly believe than any other Govern
ment on the habtable globe."-Hoa. AHdreg johnson,
Of Tenn.
81 think it is not saving too much declare that this
country has gone faster and further in ten years. in ex-
trayagance than other countries have gone cen
turies-GeH. Shields.
Before God believe this to be the most corrupt Gov
/ eminent on esrth.-SeHdtCr 100mbs.
"From the by-ways and the highways Of the Govern
ment the rOt,enness OF corruption sends forth nsuer
ssmbe.s the indignation Of the Democracy y"-Roger A.
/ Pryor.
With these confessions before us who does not say
hat the time has come for hurting Democracy from pow
err When Mr.. Fillmore succeeded in the Presiden
al Office by Mr. Pierce he turned with the Govern
meut nearly twenty millions Of solid cash. Since then,
the resources Of the country have nearly doubled but
Notwithstanding the wastelu progae use Of money has
been so great that we have DOW funded debt of flty
eight Millions and twenty millions Of outstanding
nv notes-in all eighty millions Of debt The inquiry
suggests ITSELF what has become of this amount
Of money The expenditures Of the Government under
the administration Of the Wings never much exceeded
forty millions per annum. Under the administration of
Pierce ami Buchanan the Of the country derived
from imports has nearly doubled and the expenses of
conducting the Government have gone up from forty to
eighty millions Of course, it is impossible for those
uninitated in the iniquites Of Democratic politics to
know what was done with this money, but things
We do know.
They have wasted in supporting scurrous and mer
esnary newspapers in filing the land with paid body
Of unpriucipled Gemagogues influence and overawe
he honest expression of public opinion by the people, aad
furnishing money to carry the election of political tools
in all parts Of the land They have clothed aud fed
mighty host Of hungry fellows whose business it is to
keep the Democratic party in power. Even those who
earnestly promoted the election Of Mr.. Buchanan are
constrained have seen above to admit that never
since we had government have corruption bribery and
political proagacy s,alksd through the land now, aud
the question returns what shall do Let the people
rise up in their might and hur from power plry cor
rupt and unahfu all the great trusts committed its
care. Try honest and true men.

Political,

The second district republican convention

t. Davis of Fall River, and Seth Webb, Jr.
of Scituate, were chosen delegates to the Chic.

were elected substitutes.
The Washington correspondent of the Phil

republican House printer, has declared in ia.
vor of Douglas for the presidency. The letter
contains other presidential Vaccinations quite
as wild and absurd as this one.
All but one district in Virginia have elected
delegates to the Charleston convention. The
result is delegates who prefer Wise, 1s
delegates who prefer Hunter, II; delegate.
whose preference is unknown, 8.
The New Jersey Railroad Company adver.

ON THE SCAFF0LD.

BY ALBERT sUTLIFFE.
Arthur Maltrayers is this the end
year ago this very day,
Adown the lawn to the waving woods
TwiXt the buds and blossoms of May,
We walked together; but where are you now,
And why does this multitude gaze at you,
Who shrink or leer as BELTS their mood'
Are You good man and true?
Then you told me tale of happy love;
And the buds and blossoms heard either side:
You thought the roses less fair than your pearl +;
The stars, than the eyes of your bride
What! are you on the scalIold now?
How thin and pale! and would you speak!
My eyes are dim, ana can not see
l cannot hear for your voice is weak
You married beautiful cousin of mines
They say they found her white and cold,
Under the maple, before the door,
But you were naughty and bold.
Her tangled hair was across her face, ldust
And her bosom was stained with blood and
She was your wife, to love and protect,
She was given in holy trnst
What murmuring yet! and the crowds sui,
To hear each word that you will say
Beyond you see the deep blue sky,
And the clouds that fade and fade away.
Your mother died of griefthat night
And YOUR father went mad ere Christmas tide,
And all the country side, man and maid,
Walled for your murdered bride
Now the parson kneels to pray;
May God have mercy on your soul!
Arthur Maltravers, | loved you well,
And what return but this lifelong dole
See, they adjust the cap and cord,
One last look at the earth and sky:
Arthur Maltrayers, shall go mad
If wait to see you die.

The United States officers in Wisconsin are
now guarding the abotionist Booth in a close
and darkened dungeon. When he had pen
and paper, they say, che abused his privi-
lege" by assaing the right of the government
in the premises consequently the honor and
safety of the government require stringent
measures. How does this differ from the des-
potism of the Bastile
The romance in the story of the departure
of Surveyor Hart of New York for Europe,
which was attributed to the bequest of for
tune by French Jewess who once loved him,
is puncture1 by the announcement that he has
only gone to see the fight between those two
lights of civilization-Heenan and Savers
Hart b5Ang the champion of Heenan.
