TUX HERALD on THE DEMooRAoY.-The
New York Herald thus sums up the con-
dition of modern Democracy
taking the principal existing organs
of the Northern Democracy, in their
present slipshod and dismantled condi-
tion, for our nlightenment,- such as
the Albany Atlas and Argus, and the
World, the Journal of Commerce and
the Daily News Of this city, and the
Chicago Times, the Cincinnati Enquirer,
&c.--we can find no common ground OF
action among them, no agreement, no
concord except in their common hostil-
ity to Abraham Lincoln's Administra-
ton This is the ruling passion of the
old Democracy, strong in death-im-
placable vengeance against the party de-
priving them Of the spoils. John G.
Calhoun was right in saying that the
Democratic party.was held together by
the cohesive power of the public plum
DER for on losing the plumber the CO
hesion of the party is gone, and 1T has
fallen to pieces"

The FINANCIAL CoNDITIoY.-We are
authorized to say that the statement
concerning the increased expenses of the
government made by the Washington
correspondent of the Herald, in the edi-
ton of yesterday, was very erroneous.
The secretary of the treasury has recent
ly published full and accurate reports vt
the public debt, including the national
circulation. The increase of expenses
caused by the general movement against
the rebellion now in progress Is tempo
rarily considerable, but the whole daily
expenditure is but little more than
three tifths of the amount stated-say
S2,500,000, instead of S4,000,000. The
aggregate debt, including all suspended
acquisitions, is now more than thou
sand millions less than the correspond
ents observations imply, say SLIP O0O,-
coo, instead of S2,774, 5000; and there
is, as has already been shown on the au-
thority of assistant treasurer Cisco, no
warrant whatever for the assertion that
the secretary is issuing any legal-tender
interest notes, except as substitutes for
greater amounts of like notes redeemed
and cancelled Nor does the secretary
propose to issue any compound interest
six per cent. legal tenders, except as sub
stitutes for five per cent. legal tenders
withdrawn, or any more ordinary legal
tenders at all. The whole volume OF le-
gal tenders is being reduced, instead of
increased.-Nao York Evening Post.

FuSkRAL OF MRS. SwxRr.-The HsR-
AID of yesterday contained notice Of
the death of Mrs. Harriette j. Sweet,
wife CT Surgeon O. p. Sweet, of the army,
and daughter of Fayette Barney, Esq,
of Castleton. Mrs. Sweet died at WASH
ington, Of Typhus fever, on Saturday,
after an illness of less than one weeks
duration. Her remains were sent homo
to Castleton, where the funeral took
place from the residence of her father.
ON the afternoon of Wednesday last
The funeral services were conducted by
Rev. Joseph Steele, of Middlebury, who
preached an impressive sermon ON the
occasion. Mr.. Steele was formerly pas
tor Of the Congregational church in Cas-
Teton, and spoke feelingly and touch.
ingly of the deceased, whom he knew a.
q pupil of the Sabbath school In years
gone by. At the conclusion Of the ser.
mon some brief and exceedingly inter-
esting remarks were made by Surgeon
]. Pitkin, who accompanied DR.. Sweet
on his sad journey with the remains OF
his wife to Castleton. DR.. Pitkin spoke
earnestly and feelingly of the social and
christian virtues of the deceased and Of
her good example and good influence In
the circle in which she moved at WASH
ington. The funeral was very largely
attended by the friends and acquaint-
ances of the family and of the deceased.

MUTUAL AIp.-The Atlanta (Ga.) APP
peal, in an article on the prospects Of
peace, gives credit to the Northern sup
porters of the rebellion as follows
"While we may look with some de-
gree of confidence to the people of the
North, driven to despair by the memory
of their countless dead and the bank
ruptcy and utter ruin which now stare
them in the face, to dethrone the tyrant
and put stop to the further progress of
the war, we must not stay nor lessen
our own efforts to bring about that con-
summation so devoutly to be wished
Every successful blow we strike is so
much bone and muscle to the arm which,
under the training of Long, Harris,
VOORHEES, and Vallandigham, IL prepar-
ing to strike at the North"

one Oh the 1'FeNA0SmVS NalbtaAcSs
A Western paper in commenting upon
several of the alleged mistakes of the
President, says:
"Another supposed mistake was the
Presidents retention and promotion OF
Grant himself. The country has not for
cotton the outcry against this drunken,
this pro slavery, this 'blundering,' this
Specializing General, after the battles
of Belmont and Shiloh"
Gle drank whisky; he was never known
to pray but was an irreligious man; he
was pro-slavery; he specialized in cot
ton; his victories were only the result
Of blind luck; he was dull and not very
well educated; he marched his men hor-
rible distances he paid no attention to
storm or shine, food or starvation,
swamps or dust, cold or snow, but
marched and fought with such a terrible
recklessness of human life There was
long, loud, savage cry for his re-
moval from command, and his dismissal
from the service. But the President
stuck to him with that remarkable per-
tinactity which has been cause of Of
fence 20 some in several instances. and
1t is due to the President alone. and to
none other, that the Republic has the
eminent services Of Gen. Grant to-day
