A New REMEDY.-Coai.ol and its various

along without the aid of crutches. The or.

and he gradually grew worse. Some person

OUGHT TO BE REDUCED. D.-We shall never
have an honest and economical Administra
tion until we reduce the taxes. We are At
present collecting from the people, impov.
erished by the war, nearly four hundred mill
lions of dollars year for the support Of the
Federal Government. In Democratic days
seventy millions were sufficient. The De.
mocracy managed to administer affairs with.
out income taxes and without any internal
revenues whatever. The only Federal taxes
were duties upon customs. Is there the
slightest necessity for keeping a standing
army of 100, 900 men! The country is filed
with Major and Brigadler Generals, who
draw large salaries and live in dleness.-
Why not discharge them and thousands of
useless office-hoders, and thus reduce the
expenses of the Government!

Never Despair.

Although the recent elections have gone
against us, we do not despair of the Repub'
lie. The great principles of Democracy
must ultimately triumph. 1t may be next
year, or the year after, or even later, yet
their day will come. Great revolutions can
not be accomplished at once. "All progress"
says Lamartine, 'requres effort. Every ef.
fort is painful and attended with painful
embarrassments. Political transformations
are laborious. The people are the artticers OF
their own future. Let them reflect upon that
The future observes and awaits them. Shame
upon the towards who would draw back
We wish no affiliation with such Conscious
of the rectitnde of our intentions and con.
vinced Of the justice of our cause, we shall
relax no efforts to insure the right. Error
has ever travelled faster than truth; but error
will die, while truth is immortal. THE
sword cannot pierce it, fire cannot consume
it, prisons cannot incarcerate it, famine can
not starve it; all the violence of men, stirred
up by the power and subtlety Of hell, cannot
pnt it to death" We say to our friends then
"Be Of good cheer" We will vet see the
banner of Democracy waving in triumph
over tie Capitol at Washington.
