EXECUTIVE MANSION,

The "SERviCEs" OF THE DEMocRArIC
PARTY TO THE CouSrRE-FIarper's Week.
", in an article directed against the preten-
sions Of democratic orators, who now claim
for their party the direction of the Govern.
ment, has the following bitter enumeration
ofthe services" which, the democrats have
performed to the nation:
What, then, are the services Of the dem
ocratic purty for which II should be again
intr,lsted with the direction Of the Govern.
ment? The history Of thirty years an
swers. Its services consists in having
strengthened, by every appeal to passion,
ignorance and cowar,iicc, the only nristo.
cratic class in the United States, and an
aris,ocracy founded upon the degradation
of labor. Its services consists in u syste.
matte debauchery ofthc national conscience;
in n fierce denial OF the fundamental prin.
ciplc of the Republic - the equality Of
rights; in an attempt, under the forms of
law, by means Of blood and terror, to lastcn
slavery upon Kansas; and when the people,
nj last aroused to the fearful truth, constitu-
tionuly cast that party from power, its
crowning service consists in rushing 10
arms, and seeking, by the most desperate
and prolonged struggle, TO overthrow the
Government. The democratic party. whose
conspiracy ngainst the equality Of rights has
been ioiIcd both in the field and ut the polls,
now turns 10 the American people, who
have been its spectators and victims, and
informs them that Il is the only safe and
patrio,ic and conservative and conciliatory
and Union. loving party in the land.

Las, Monday the Louisiana Convention
Of 1864, recommended by President Lin

in New Orleans. This Convention, &C.
corling to the plan Of President Lincoln,
was elected on the 25th Of March 1864. In
accordance with proclamation by General
Banks and Gen. Hahn. The Convention
convened on the 6,h of April 1864 and con-
tinued 10 days, framed constitution which
was adopted by u majority OF $40.
What the precise object OF the Convcn-
ton was We are not able to distinctly state,
but il was legally assembled in pursuance
Of call Of the Governor, and were nearly
all either arrested by the police amid cries
