The Republican Programme. .i,n,
! When the wisest otlmen said ''there is (,
nothing new under; the SUM- he could 4,
scarcely have directed his prophetic vision
/ TO this enlightened period Of the nineteenth, d
century The progress of the arts and sci-,s ,
ences, reforms in religion and governments q
have, in our day and generation, produced /,
results novel at least If not invariably benz
efcial and wise. Yet, with all our boasted 4,
advancement in knowledge, the circle Of :,
human wisdom. is not too large to admit n
the general application of the maxim at /,
the present time. Since human nature Is
the same In every age, subject to the same
passions, influenced by the same motives
and controlled by the same considerations,
history, sin the tide Of time, only repeats
itself, portraying the vices or virtues of the -
existing generation in the record Of q for
mer For this reason, history has been aptly
styled philosophy teaching by example"
Even the. programme of the Republican
party for the restoration of the Union, is :.
not entirely original. Although, it has
reached the summit of human folly and
vindictiveness, it has counterpart, model
in history. 1t is related that Procrustes, O.
noted robber Of Attica, measured his cap.
tiyes by his bed, and if too long, he cut
them shorter, but if too short, he stretched
them to the requisite length. This is pre-
cisely what the Republican party are at
tempting to do with the South, The plan
of the robber is ,congenial to, their, hearts,
and they thirst for a more extended appli-
cation of it. .''i t'7' 70
The Republican party have agreed upon
plan, and are determined to fit the South
ern people to it's dimensions, According,
