Shall We Lawfully Pay Our Debts
or Unlawfully Repudiate Them?
Letter from Charles II. Lanphier,
Esq, the Old Hditor Of the
State Register.
SrRINGFIELn. IL, Oct. 3lst,


FRIEND DANFoRTH = Accidentally, this
morning, a copy of your stamch democratic
ARGUS fell into nv hands, in which | was
much gratifed to observe that you adopt the
true ground in regard to debt and taxation
the redemption of the 500 securities in
''greenbacks," as a means to reach that vast
amount of capital which, by radical law, is
now untaxable. This is our only salvation
from out-and-out Reputation. The people
cannot, nor will not, bear the burthens nee
essary to meet the principal and interest of
that debt in coin. 1t is simply Impossible
for them to do so, TO say nothing of the NOR
al and legal fact, that it is not 80 nomin-
ated in the bond" 1t was never so intend
ed, otherwise than a feeler TO learn how
much patient beast will bear. ! take 1t
that these people are now learning that
nothing beyond the letter of the bond will be
accepted, if that and to push the bondhold-
er down further viii end in utter Reputation
and public dishonor. 1t is idle TO argue
with you the injustice Of the radical financial
polcy-the exemption of one-third of the
capital of the country from taxation, and the
payment at the same time OF exhorDitant IN
tereSt-and that, to the extent of three hun
| dred and twenty-five millions, doubled again,
| by the national bank process-paying these
| banks an interest on their bonds, then Civ
ing them the use of their money again, by
| the issue of neiUbacks TO make another In
terest upon.
The people cannot stand it. Certainly,
the democratic people will not. Politicians
| and quasi democratic friends at ''com mercia
centres" may write oracularly, learnedly and
| opaqueiy TO the contrary, but the people viii
| not follow them. The negro is rapidly eeas
ing to occupy public thought. The grea
and only question which they will hearken II
| next year will be how to lessen their burth
ens-by the reduction OF the tariff and th'
| adoption of some honest process BY which
| they can be relieved OF devouring interes
on the public debt. The ''nigger" is PLAYED
out How shall the bills of folly be footed
BY curtailment of expenditures and just ant
| equal taxation, is the democratic answer.
hope you will push your worthy ARGUS il
| that line. With George H.Pendleton as on
nominee. and a platform squared to pubh
economy and equal taxation, radical dlsnn
ionism will not retain spot on which to res
| its bones in the northwest.
| Your Old Friend,
| CHAs. H. LANPHIER.

RADICAL EDITOR ON THE GRANT
MOVEMENT

1t is admitted, among Ohio politicians,
that Col. DON Piatt is one of the shrewdest
of the radical leaders in that state. Allud-
ing to the movement in radical circles in IA
vor of General Grant as the candidate of
that party for the next presidency, Colonel
Piatt in his paper the Mac-a-Cheek Press,
writes:
SIT s no time to take council of our fears, to
hesrken TO the enemy. Already certain shallow
pated politicians = have raised de-
sparing cry for Grant
He then goes on to translate this despair
ing cry" into plain English, and to tell what
it means. He says sit is a cry of terror, and
as senseless as it is shameful" 1T MEANS"
says he, when translated into plain English,
that the people no longer believe in our prin-
ciples or sustain our measures :" a make.
shift that the party are ready to abandon
both and run on Grant II is, as he
thinks, a movement to substitute an availa-
able man in the stead of radical principles
and measures, hoping that Grant will carry
the party through, when those principles and
measures would not. 1t is an acknowledge.
ment of defeat beforehand, which they virtu'
ally concede to be inevitable, unless they
can get some man who is more popular than
their policy, and whose popularity is sufh
cient to carry successfully the odium which
now attaches to that policy. very well,
saws this radical editor, Grant has not much
political sagacity, but his friends ThurloN
Weed and James Gordon Bennett will helI
him to correct reading of our conduct. He
is their candidate and is made available BY
our misfortunes. He will have to carry u'
and our principles, and not we him" AND
then he adds
"This is no new move in politics 1t is pleas
ant sort of suicide and made iIlustrious by tn
late WING party. In it we have semblanoe O
victory, without its substance, and march in sol
grandeur to our own graves"
This is the clearest unmasking and mos
searching review, from radical source, G
the recent Grant movement, that we hav
seen. It furnishes evidence that those viii
politicians in the radical party, who are try
ing to put Grant forward, will meet with yer
earnest opposition. Meantime the geners
maintains that same stubborn silence whic
has ever characterized him, and all the e
forts, so industrously applied, to make hi1
speak out in favor of radical principles an
measures, have so far proved unavailing.-
Finally, this radical editor concludes wit
the following
awe cannot turn our backs on tried statesm
and not abandon principles. Wecan nomi
ate General George II. Thomas, and still reta
our platform, and continue fight. II, howe
er, we worthy past, would nomina
Salmon P. Chase and, if defeated, go down
honor, with the hope, vouchsafed truth, justice a
humanity, to rise again in triumph"

A DrNDREAY JoKE.-There is some relief
