In costliuess Of govern ment Great Brit

the rate Of thirteen dollars and tEeLb-b z
cents per head for being governed '-e
Swiss pay one dollar and seventy cents
per head for the same convenience. The
French pay little more than ten dollars
per head, and our worthy ancestors the
HOllanders pay, without grumbling,
twelve dollars and quarter.
If the national debt of Great Britain was
equally divided among the population,
every man, woman and child would owe
one hundred and forty dollars. Switzer-
land has no public debt The French owe
about sixty-fve dollars and the Russians
about twenty-five dollars per head.

The name OF Democracy has always
been q potent one. Under it many battles
have been fought nui won. But the De-
mocracy Of the latter days has been as
widely different from that of a genera
tion ago, as darkness from light. There
was q time, few years ago, when Dem
ooratio Convention declared for tour coun-
try, right or wrong" There was time
when the Democracy Of Ohio declared in
Convention that slavery was an evil,
whose spread must not be allowed over
territory once free There WAS a time
when Democratic Committee, of which
Clement L Vsllandigham was Chairman,
reported to Democratic Convention res
olution declaring that in time of war, the
place of the patriot was upon the side of
his country. Those days passed away,
and in 1868 we fnd the Democratic party
under the leadership Of men known to be
enemies to their Government. The party
Of this year repudiates thai of ten and
tRenty years ago, and advocates doctrines
which it would then have truly declared
reasonable. The blind managers of that
party thought that the name of Democracy
was omnipotent and that it would carry
its old adherents wherever it went, let it
20 where it would. Hence, they appropri-
ated the name to themselves, made the
Democratic Conventions sub5erVient to
their Individual policies, aud said TO the
great masses 81 Here is your party and your
platform" The scheme worked Tor q
time. New York suffered herself to be
csiOled into its support. and elected HOra-
ito Seymour. Ohio, iu 1862, became an
other willing victim, aud let half the Of
ces 20 into the hands # m'n who have
proved false to their professions Of Union
ism. Such success encouraged the men
Of bad eminence who had brought IL
about. They had been moderate hereto
fore in their opposition to the Administra'
tion of the Government. Being upheld
in that, they took another step, and ex-
peeted the people 10 follow. But that step
was too loHg. Il spannei a deep gulf
which honest men dared not cross. Itwas
g jump frem pretended loyalty to open
disloyalty.
Connecticut cut herself loose from such
leaders. They we're too fast for her. And
now Ohio and Pennsylvania, the great
hope and stay of the COpperhead leaders,
have sdded their mighty voices to that Of
their New England sister. The dose was
too strong, and the body polite threw it
up.
Both the Copperhead Democracy AMI the
rebels in the South relied upon the election
in these States as their strong hope
They made bold stand and staked their
all. They have lost and will never rise
again. The people we're roused up as they
never we're before. The true issue was
presented to them, and, not even the ma iO
name of Democracy could allure the men
Of Ohio and Pennsylvanis from their al
legiance to their Government
'Copperhead Democracy ia virtually dead.
The men of to day rep1diate it; their
sons will hate it with bitter hatred. Its
day has gone by. The overwhelming ma
jOrity by which Ohio hss put it to rest, is
too deadly blew to admit of its recovery.
Its followers will be heard of no more,
save as their names are coupled with terms
Of ignominy and disgrace.

An the breath spent by Vallandighsm-
