ON WHOM THE RESPONSI BILITY
RESTS.

Editors and stump speakers are prone to
bestowing as much attention in applauding
or berating the Executive head of the
Nation, and men who occupy public positions
as though upon them the country were de-
pendent for it's existence and perpetuity
They too often forget that such are the rep
resentatives Of a power greater than them
selves, and that the same influences which
made, can unmake tn en-. The people,
under our system of Government, are sove-
reign, and whatever befalls us as a Repub-
lic will be due more to the sovereigns than
to their representatives. Ancient history
provides a simile by which we can illus
trate our meaning. The Palladium was an
image ofPallas, preserved in the castle OF
Troy. The oracle of Appolo gave assu
rance that SO long as the Palladium remained
within the castle it would be safe from in
vestment assault. The Grecians besieged
the ancient city, but were unable to capture
il, nor could they while the Palladium was
there. Ulysses and Dioniedes crept through
the sewers of the city, entered the castle and
surreptitiously took out or i'll other words,
stole the image oi IatiaS ne GreclanS
then besieged Troy, and it fell into their
hands without difficulty.
Thus it is in our day. The right of Il peo-
pie to govern themselves, is the bulwark of
our system of Government. If American
citizens surrender this principle, they part
with all that is noble or enyiable in our sys-
TEN of Government, and the United States
will fall as surely into the possession of the
enemies of Republican form of Govern
ncnt as did Troy into the hands of the Gre
clans. And it is not upon our leaders
hut our people that we should throw there's
