Piaineo-How the FEDERAL Government
IL 20 he Plandersd.
The whole course of action Of the scheming
and corrupt Albany Regency during the pre-
sent campaign from its inception down to the
present moment, proves that behind their o.
tensible motives there is q paramount conside-
ration, for which they are bound to labor in
such way as to secure the election Of Lin
coin.
der OF the government, in which the Albany
Regency and the Albany black republican
iiunta have agreed to work together and for the
anne end. The plan of operations Is 60 vast in
is details, and so comprehensive. in Its results,
that 1t overshadows all the evils that were ever
attributed to the United States Bank in the
palmy days of Jackson, and if 1t can be car
ried out will subject this government and
country to worse tyranny than was
attempted to be established by Biddle
and bis fellow monopolists. The scheme is one
in which the Albany intriguers have had State
practice, and having made large fortunes by Its
application to New York, they have now
banded together to endeavor to apply 1t to the
Union, and Lincoln has been selected as the
fitting instrument for its consummation. We
allude TO the plan Of railroad combination
which has been so profitable to its contrivers
here, and which today rules all parties in the
State Of New York, and bends their nominees
to obey its behests A similar combination is
to be made for the purpose of controlling the
general government, and making every dollar
that goes into the public treasury, and every
acre Of the public lands, sweat for the profit of
the managers.
The plan Is to make combination Of all the
great Northern railroad companies, for the pur-
pose of constructing Northern railroad to the
Pacific. BY arranging system Of mail con.
tracts to extend over series Of years, Sc
curing grants Of the public lands for fifty
miles on either side of the line, and
obtaining the passage Of laws for the trans
portation Of all the matfriel Of the War De-
partment and Indian Bureau, II is calculated
that the expenditure Of sufficient government
money annually for ten years can be secured
to build the whole road, or say two hundred
millions Of dollars. This money is to be d.
vided among the combining railroad companies,
In the shape Of fat contracts for mail and army
transportation which they are to cede wholly
or In part to the combination in exchange for
certificates Of stock, and with these new grants
and new concessions are to be secured from a
Northern majority in Congress. The scheme is
the product of certain New York intriguers
long familiar with such operations In Albany
and Washington; and 1t is estimated that be-
tween contracts and public lands three hun
dred millions of dollars can be legislated into
the pockets of the combination without spend
Ing dollar Of their own.
We denounced this scheme some months
since when II was first started, and since that
time the managers have continued their labors
privately and with some success. Many of our
Northern railroad companies are committed to
it, and the Regency and junta Of Albany are
both in the pool. They confidently claim that
through the combination Of the railroad int
rests no man opposed to their plan can be
elected to Congress from any Northern State.
In order to succeed black republican Presi-
dent must be elected and this could only be
achieved by the division and defeat OF the |
national conservative interests. This wa the |
part assigned to the Albany Regency, and they |
have acted steadily in accordance with II from /
the time Of the Charleston Convention to the
present day. Every attempt at compromise
With them has been persistently rejected, no
natter how favorable the terms that we're prof
erred and having sold themselves to the black
republican managers, they are now carrying
put the bargain in the hope to obtain their
price.
No matter what promises they may make In
regard to fusion, all they wish to obtain |
thereby Is the control Of the money the mer- I
chants Of New York, whose interests are ma
tional, are willing to contribute for the neces-
sites Of the canvass, and then to defeat the
objects for which II will be contributed. A |
black republican Congress is to be brought r.
forward the same purposes that ruled our last
corrupt State Legislature, where the tools Of |
theee ciques voted for similar infamous mea-
.ures, whereby the city Of New York was grid.
roned. and It's franchises to the value Of |
million Of dollars were voted away. We. warn
he country against these schemes now, while |
here is Jet time to defeat them. II they are
not defeated the federal government Will be
made the ironed slave OF a set of ayaricious /
'peculators and political demagogues, just as
New York Is now the slave OF the Central Rail
road combination, and New Jersey the tool Of |
the Camden and Amboy corporation. Let the
national conservative interests see that they are
not made the victims Of this union between the |
