GEMS OF DEMOCRATIC L1TERA-
TURE.

lieve, is by all odds the most popular oil
Democratic editors, and his party ought
therefore to have a natural foudness for
profanity and billingsgate. Here are
specimens of some of his latest rawlings:
Grant wants q largo army, first-to
enforce his newly-created dictatorship
over ten States and twelve millions OF
people. Seeond-to establish and Gu
force his prospective dictatorship over
all Of the States, and oil Of the people,
North and South. Does any sane man
believe that U. S. Grant had any better
object in view when he objected to q
decrease in the army than to use that
army as q means to further his Presi-
Dental aspirations.
Here is q delicate allusion to Abraham
Lincoln:
We ask you in oil candor, are not
such creatures as Lincoln, the tyrant;
Stanton, the traitor; Butler, the assas-
sin, woman iusulter aud thief-are not
such men the elect of the devil? Will
i. not be a day Of joy for earth's chill
dren when the last Of the triumvirate
Of demons shall be called to his long
account to enjoy forever the birthstone
hospitality Of the Prince Of Radicals,
who will place them high in the halls
of perdition, for carrying out his prin-
ciples in this world, promoting strife on
earth, as he had done in Heaven.
\ \
But n of the demoniac trio has been
called 10 his final reckoning; perhaps II
would tax tho ingenuity of the Prince
| of Darkness to provide for all three at
once. Be that as it may, two still live
to pollute the air Of heaven, and they
yet find willing dupes to hearken to
their counsels, though, fortunately for
humanity, they are stripped OF the
power for evil they once possessed.
Sheridan is spoken Of as ''the in.
famous Sheridan who had been the most
infamous of all Radical TOOLS" Han
cock, we need hardly say, is commended
rs o gentleman. Grant is ''the national
hostler." Butler is "cock-eyed thief
Congress is 'the Rump He'll at Wash
ington," and the members are "Hell'
deserving blood-houuds of the infamous
Rump." The pauacea which maniac:
of the Pomeroy stamp have to offer FOL
the troubles Of the country is Repudia
ton and civil war:
1t is too late. You called US traitor:
not long ago, when VIC talked Of equs
taxation-when we advocated the inter
ests Of the poor man, and held W
his wrongs in the broad sunlight o.
heaven that you might see them. Yor
Knocked us and scoffed at US then-bu'
YOU have talked taxation q little your
self since. Now we demand Reputation
as the only complete and lasting relic
to the working class, and you mock u:
again. But mark, the same power tina
has brought you to taxation talk, viii
bring you not long hence to Reputation
The people are to govern this country a
they used to in times agone. The psopl
say Repudihon! And fight and resist a!
long as you can, Radicals, Puritans, ant
Pharisees, it rR come. The people
riH be heard-they riH be free!
The iufamy Of the preceding eStrac
is only equaled by the one which fol
lows:
It seems to US there can be but on,
course left the President, and that is Il
assert his rights under the Constitution
rights that every other President ha'
enjoyed-and to maintain them. He /
Commander-in-Chi Of the army, and a
such has control Of the same, while q
the first evidence Of his intention Il
truly maintain the supremacy Of justice
and liberty in America, the highway
and byways would swarm with brav'
men and true, who would fight. not 70,
Andrew johnson, but for the Union, tht
laws, the white men, and liberty; ant
their fight would pay the National debt
and bring peace and harmony to thu
country. This is not idle talk. Hun
dreds Of thousands Of able men stanC
ready to aid US, or any one, in a hgh
for the maintenance Of rights which ",
inherited from our ancestors, and which
we owe to posterity. Outrage ant
~usurpation may be tolerated for u time
but an oppressed and stricken people
are not always to chafe under the YOKE
of yranuy
