dred years ago, to hold such an estimate. II
would require us TO forget the gallant struggle
OF hungary for independence in 184s, which
would have been successful but for Russia
joining untowardly her armies TO those Of
Austria. In that year the Diet of Hungary
abolished serfdom voluntarily, although that
body was largely composed of men whose in
terests identified them with the institution.
And the very ceremonial, the forms of which
seem to be so offensive to some, is the moral
victory of the people of Hungary over an
enemy who, with the aid of Russian bayonets
conquered them eighteen years ago. To tear
Lombardy and Venetia from Austria, it re-
quired the assistance of two such powers as
France and Prussia.
To become independent of Austria, Hungary
may have asked, but received the help of no
outside power. The coronation is but form;
its substance means Independence from the
other provinces Of Austria. It was a connec-
tion merely personal between the Emperor of
Austria and the kingdom of Hungary. It
means legislative body, chosen from the
people in part, and guarantee that her con-
stitutional liberties, as far as royal oaths go,
will be invaded no more. This is the lesson
taught by the coronation, whatever its oere-
monial

of the measure Before the campaign is over
we will publish the votes, and let the people
judge for themselves whore the responsibility
should rest.
Among the declarations of the intentions of
the Republican party, which, being Democrats,
they are peculiarly able to foresee, we find the
purpose of ooniscation, in violation of the
declaration of the rights avowed by the Re-
publican leaders, and other guarantees of
Federal and State Constitutions, tending, as it
does, to destroy all protection to private pro-
perty, advances them far on the high road to
repudiation."
In the first place, the sentence is untrue and
in the second place IL is illogical. With the
exception of Mr.. Thaddeus Stevens, there is
not leader of the Republican party in favor
of confiscation; and among all our exchanges
we do not find journal which supports the
measure. This is as we'll known to our oppo-
nents as to ourselves. But, as usual, they do
not scruple to prevaricate for party purposes.
Again, the connection between oonfsoation
of Rebel property and reputation of the loyal
debt is so subtle that we cannot clearly de-
tect it.
Such is the platform of our opponents. A
combination of obsolete ideas, false statements,
and declarations of assumed facts, which have
no foundation. If Judge Sharswood can stand
upon it before the people of Pennsylvania and
secure their suffrages, he is the most popular
man that has ever run for Office. weaker
set of resolutions was never declared by a
party in America.

The Present status of Hungary.

A morning contemporary, in its issue of yester-
day, took occasion to malign the kingdom of
Hungary on account of the medieval pagean-
try accompanying the ceremonies of the
coronation of Francs Joseph. Our contempo-
rary says that 'there the ceremonial of the
middle ages still exists, and their darkness
too," and somewhat doubtingly adds that
"there the political economy of slavery and
Ignorance might possibly be successfully
demonstrated. These few sentences convey
wrong impressions of the political and social
status of the country, which it is attempted to
represent as a tempting land for the immigra-
tion of tournament filters, Brazil refugees,
and black letter insurgents" It would require
political Rip Van Winkle, who has been
doing over a history Of Hungary of hun
