In one..sense ct least the Democrats can
coneede with Shakespeare, "sweet are tho
uses of adversely" Before the election, if
we were to believe our Republican friends,
the Democrats were the vilest set of fellows
that ever lived. Mr.. Beecher declared that
none but white livered coward could vote
for Mcclellan; our shoddy contemporary
said that the Democrats in this city were
the scum Of its population, and its repre>
sentatives were courteous enough to say
that they kept sharp lookout for their
pocket books whenever they were compelled
to attend Democratic meetings. An agent
of the administration, Advocate General
Holt, filled the papers with stories of trea-
sonable plots on the part of the Democrats,
to subvert the Government, and the Tri6-
une. to cap the climax, declared that Gov.
Morton aud the leading Republicans Of In
diana were all to be assassinated. Since the
election we have heard no more Of those
bug. a-boo stories. They have, in all prob
utility, subserved their purpose. They
have turned out to be egood enough Nor.
gans until after the election. Since the
election the Democrats are described as the
finest fellows in the world. They tell us
that we made q noble fight for what we Be.
lieved to be,right, and acquissced in tine re'

"joint holders Of . common heritage, and
"thst though We may wrangle in our can
"svasses, and oppose each ether msnfully at
''tte ballot-box, We have one country, one
government, one destiny" This is all
very pretty, and it is, in the main, very
true, but why not concede as much before
the election All this was just Is true
then as now. We suppose that nobody be
