AsHAMEDOF THEIR PARTY.

The Republican journals every where in the
North are preserving an unusual silence in rela-.
ton to the enormous frauds and corruptions,
which have been reported to Congress. They
neither publishthe reportsn nor make any allusion
to them--Ihey are ashamed to expose the ras-
cality of their own party. Ashamed to let
their readers know how they have imposed on
the public by preaching honesty, rctrenchment
and reform, while they were laboring to elevate,
to political power the most proaieate and cor
rupt body of men that have ever been known to
the nation. Come you boasted, self-constituted
patriots, who have such a pious regard for the
welfare of the negro population of the South,.
tell the public how much love you have for I'M,
Gle Sans Golfers. Tell how much has been
squandercd in rewarding political favoritisn,,
and how. much you have putin your own pock7
