SHOWING THEIR HANDS.

Many, in fac large majority, of the
leaders of the Democracy, have claimed
ever since the war was commenced. that
they were as loyal as the Republican
party dare be. They pretended to con-
demn the rebellion, and censure its lead
ers. But close observer could all the
time see that the Democratic party
North and South was a unit in senti-
ment. This ia becoming more appa-
rent than ever, Democratic orators
argue for the sovereignty of the States,
and the right of secession, and the New
York Day Book, the leading Democratic
paper in the United States, in its last
issue, in speaking Of the great leader of
the rebellion says:

FROM Ille hepnDHC
The DcmOcra Party.

During the war the party claiming to be Demo-
cratic denied aililiati0n with tho rebels, and
claimed to be a Union and Constitution party.
VI course their actions during these years of trial
belled th cir preaching, and it Is well-knOwn that
they gave all the aid and comfort they dared to
obstruct the Government in Its attempt to sup
press the rebellion Since the surrender Of Lee
and Johnson, they, rs party, and their leaders
rs individuals, have done all that was in their
power to retard the Government in the work of
reconstruction. Notwithstanding the fact that
the last fall elections showed an unmistaliabe de-
termination on the part OF the people TO sustain
Congress against all opposition, they still persist
in The futile attempts to subvert our free Govern
ment. Now they are coming out boldly, aud one
of their papers comes out for Jeif Davis and the
Evansville Sentinel comes out In the following
style;
I'VE to-day nominate Gen. Robert f. Lee, of
Virginia as our hyorlte for President in 1868
Gen. Lee stands before the world an American
nobeman q Christian without peer, living or
dead. We ask not whether THIS purest and no
blest Of living Americans led forth the legi0ns of
Virginia in defense of his native State, IN an az
gressivo war upon Its sovereignty by the Federal
lists Of the North, or whether partisan legislation
has stricken down his rights as citizen in the
FederallSlic system Of coucentmlization. We see
only the man with his spOtless purity Of character
nobility of person. tIue Christian graces and peer
less honor. Acknowledged at home and abroad
as the greatest and purest amongst us, we deem
him most amply qualified to administer with dig
nity and truth the principles for which his illustrl-
ous knsman, George Washington fought, and
which the bitter passions Of degenerate sons have
so long imperiled.
Gen. Robert L. Lee is the FIRST choice of q
grand army Of Democrats in the North, who are
not afraid to urge his claim before the country for
that position for which God especially endowed
him. The timd men Of the party may tremble
when his name is spoken, but the brave applaud
We believe that Gen. Lees nomination by the
Democrats of the North would be hailed with de-
light by every lover of true manhood aud nobility
OF character throughout the land"
II any one can see the least difference between
the Democracy of the North aud the rebels oil the
South we would like to have them draw line
between them that would be visible to the naked

THE HERALD ON THE NEGRO.


The Herald has series of articles,
not written by the editor, we think, in
which the articles in the STANDARD,
written by "PhideIta," are reviewed,
The writer has poor opinion of the
negro, and goes back to Africa and de-
scribes the native as a heather incapa-
bic of religious influence. Now every
child in this country knows that the ne
gro is tho most religious being living,
No other race under heaven has shown
so much Christian forbearance under
terrible wrongs, as the negro.
In reply to the writer in the Herald
We give few quotations from the June
number Of the Atlantic Monthly, from
an article on "Negro Spirituals," by T.
w. Higginson. He was Colonel of
the first South Carolina regiment, (col-
ored,) and speaks from personal expe-
rienco, Al(er giving a number of
specimens OF the rude songs of the me-
groes, he says
Almost all theirsongs were thoroughly religious
In their tone, however quaint their expression
and were IN minor key both asato words and
music. The attitude Is always tho same and. as
commentary on the life Of the race, Is Infinitely
pathetic Nothing but patience for this life
nothing but triumph In the next Sometimes
tho y resent prodomInates, sometimes the future
but the combination Is always implied.
And again, he says; ~. NJ
These quaint religious songs wero to the men
more lhan source OF relaxation; They were a
stimulus TO courage and tie to heaven | never

| portion OF lts record. There Is no parallel in.
stance OF an oppressed race thus sustained by the
| religious sentiment alone, These songs are but
the vocal expression OF the simplicity Of their
faith aud tho sublInity Of their long resignation
Such is the testimony of one of tho
greatest literary writers of the present
day.
But the writer in the Herald has no
more faith In the white man than the
negro, for he says:
The masses are deplorably ignorant. on political
matters.
II by "the masses" he means the
Democracy, be is correct.
