weighed in the Balance and
found wanting.

found wanting.
Weighed in the balance and found
wanting, is the verdict returned by the
people against the present Administra-
ton. History furnishes no parallel to
the remarkable political revolution of
the present year. There are cause for all
this:
The administration party refused an
honorable compromise designed to save
the country and avert the dire calamities
OF civil war.
Weak, Incompetent and dishonest men
are appointed to positions, both civil
and military, because Of their shrewdness
in political knavery.
The Chicago platform is placed above
the Constitution and laws Of the country
Public plunder is winked at by those
whose sworn duty it is to protect the
purity Of the government
The financial department Of the gov
ernmcnt is weakly managed.
Abolition inccdiaryism raged like q
consuming fire in our halls o! legislation
widening tho breach between the Nortl
and South and rendering reunion o
the States almost next to impossible.
The sacred rights Of personal libert,
and the enjoyment of private property
are disregarded.
For the first time in six hundred years
the right to the writ of haJeas corpus is
denied in the face of open courts and un.
obstructcd laws.
For the first time in free government,
men were clandestinely taken from ther
homes and carried to distant and I'M
known bastiles without the privilege Of
a trial by a jury Of their countrymen.
The rights of a free ballot have been
interfered with by taking men immedi.
ately before the election to camp, because
they were Democrats, and leaving others
at home to vote because they were Repub-
Leans.
The peoples hard earned money has
been appropriated to buying up slaves
and setting them at liberty.
The local institutions of the States,
which have been held sacred by all rre
ceding administrations, have been inter
fered with by our ncgro-loving President
and Congress.
The Constitution of our Fathers, the
bond Of union between the States has be-
come as rope of sand in their hands.
The president has issued proclamations
which no sane man will claim have pre-
cedent or consti tutonal authority to
back them, but on the contrary, are III
direct violation of both. Yet, these arc
The Democratic party denounced all
these wrongs and appealed to the coun
try for justification. Their appeal has
been responded to in such thunder tones
as makes despots, corruptionists and dis
unionists trcmblo as did BELsnAzzAL
when he bcheld the hand writing upon
the wall. That the extent Of the great
political revolution may be fully apprc
ciatcd we give the Dcmocr attic gains in
the several States which have recently
held elections

defeated at the polls by the overwhelming
