NIT fatal error if they accept the result
Of the late Presidential election as an in.
dication from the hand of Destiny 10 relax

the next campaign, The true patriot

prepares al once TO discover the cause of
discontinue and to rctrive it, The future
welfare of the republic depends upon the
political zeal and activity of the Democra.
ey during the year 1865. 1t will doubtless
be gear marked by military events of the
most important character, and there is
danger that the people, absorbed in the
contemplation Of the fearful pagcantry of
war,may neglect to keep faithful vigil over
the principles that now, more than ever,
require an uufailing guardianship.
The small majority of the popular vote
that elected the Black Republican candi-
dates, considered in view Of the extraor>
dinary resources Of the Administration for
corruption and compulsion, attests that
the power Of the Democracy ,on fair field,
is equal to the vindication of Democratic
principles. They contended not only
against the patronage and unlawful prac-
tees of their opponents, but against their
own apos,acy, the treachcry of their allies
and the pernclous influences Of the doc
,rine that the Democracy in their day of
virtue and glory spurncd from them as o
pollution and poison to their organiza.
ton. The party has but renew It's devo'
ton to the pure and simple faith of its
founders, and within this year, the germ
OF ofDcmocratic supremacy will be replantcd,
and 80 nurtured that it will blossom into
the fruit of eternal life to the Republic.
There is one feature in the result of the
Presidential election that goes far TO rec.
oncie the patriot to the hard fate of his
country under four ears more of Black
Republican misrule. The balcful meteor
that lingere d brief while in our political
atmosphere has vanished for ever. War
Democracy has fulfilled its mission of dis.
organization, and like any other pestilcnce,
will be remembered only for the evil i. has
done.
The Democracy have therefore, IAN open
path before them, with no drag upon them,
and no shifting swamp. fire to niscad them
with its mockcry Of the imperishabe light
, of principle. Still,tbcre is darkness upon
the land, and they need faithful guide to
point out to them the quick.and and the
abyss. That guide is the Democratic Press.

States Rights, the parano ouut principle of
the Democratic faith.
THE NEW YORK News needs no testi.
