A SUITABLE PUNISHMENT.
Travellers and astronomers inform
US that in the southern heavens, near
the southern cross, there is vast
space which the uneducated call the
hole in the sky, where the eye of man
without the aid of powers of the tele-
scope has been unable to discover neb-
ula, or asteroid, or comet, or planet
or star, or sun. In that dreary, cold
dark region of space, which is only
known to be less than infinite by the
evidences of creation elsewhere, the
Great Author of celestial mechanism
has left the chaos which was in the be-
ginning. If this earth were capable
of the sentiments and emotions of jus.
tlce and virtue, which in human NOR.
tai beings are the evidences and the
pledge of our Divine origin and i'm.
mortal destiny, she would heave and
throw, with the energy of the combin
ed forces of air, fire and water, and
project this enemy of two races of men
into that vast region, there forever
W eAist III sor1tuue eternal as life,
or as the absence of life emblematical
of if not really, that "outer darkness
of which the Saviour of man spoke in
warning to those who are the enemies
Of themselves, Of their race, and Of
their God. But it is yours to relieve
not to punish. This done and our
country again advances in the intelli
gent opinion of mankind. In other
governments an unfaithful ruler car
be removed only by revolution, vic
fence, or force. The proceedings here
is judicial, and according to the forms
of law. Your Judgment will be en-
forced without the aid of a policeman
or soldier. What other evidence
will be needed of the value of repub
licau institutions What other test
of the strength and vigor of our gov
eminent? What other assurance
that the virtue Of the people is equa
to any emergency of national life.
The contest which we carry on a

people Of the United States, again8

Copperhead Decenoy.

For the purpose of showing the ex-
tent to which copperheadism will go
when it has fair chance, we copy at
full length on our first page an edi-
torial from the La Crosse Democrat
the vile organ of that foul party. We
say their organ because it has larger
weekly circulation than any other po-
litical journal-except the New York
Iribune-in the United States, and
should therefore be considered as the
tairest exponent of democracy as it
as and as it has been since the first
hour secession was attempted by the
Southern wing of that party. The
paper goes to nearly every village,
hamlet and school district in the coun-
try. It's editorials are read with
great relish by the great majority of
democrats and instanced as the una
dulterated doctrine. To be sure there
is here and there one with some sense
of shame left that will say "he is too
radical" but even this will be said
in such a manner as to show that they
think "Brick Pomeroy" is about two
thirds right when indulging in his
worst diatribes against Abraham Lin
coin and the country he saved. We
say that the La Crosse Democrat is
the best representative of the demo-
cratic party in existence. 1t is treas
on condensed and personifed. 1t is
obscenity, and low vulgarity, and hate
and diabolism brought to a focus, and
weekly gives to its thousands of read
ers the concentrated spume and malice
of the black hearted wretches that
preside over it. We say it is the
best representative 0f the democratic
party. 1t is so because it is the re.
ceptacle of all filth, as the democra
tic party is the one which receives to
its embrace the traitor wherever be
is found, the rummy of every grade
of intemperance, the genteel swindlel
and the pimp, five points thieves anC
shoulder hitters, professional black
legs, prize fighters and DULLES, and of
those who treat religion as 20 better
than the black code of pirates; who re.
gard its ministers as we regard the
professors of petit larcenies and
strolling mountebanks. Such is the
rank and file of the democratic party
and such is the constituency OF the
La Crosse Democrat. Who ever hearC
of any leading democratic paper tina
did not malign the ministry-that diC
not treat the religion of Christ as
pleasant fable fit only to beguile thu
hours of tender childhood and YER
aged women? Who ever heard of
democratic paper that was not tn
advocate of free rum? The reaso
for this is plain, as we have indicate
above. When they take differer
course and appeal to different sense
they will lose the largest half of the
voters and the great democratic pa
ty-the bulwark of treason in Mort
America-will go to the wall.
