The Democratic Counterfeit.

One year ago Democratic audacity cul.
minated in the deliberate forgery of patur-
alization papers. to which crime we must
credit their success at the last election
Presuming upon the leniency of the public,
they have been em5odened to still greater
crime, even that of counterfeiting the nation
al currency. We know not to what den or
corner to trace the preparation of this
iuiamy. The outrage should, however, not
90 unpurished.
BY the preachers of repudiaton it may
have been considered a sharp dodge to in
troduce their desperate scheme. But when
thousands of their ignorant devotees accept
their false coinage as genuine money, it
becomes necessary to speak in behalf of
humanity. Let all law abiding men read the
enormity of the offence in the letter of the
law provided for its punishment.
The tenth and eleventh sections Of the act
of jane 80, 1864, declare it 10 I've FELONY to
make, issue, SELL utter publish, or pass any
hOtc in 'he likeness or similitude' of any
security OF the United States. And on con
viction thereof the party so offending mmy
he punished by n fine not exceeding $1,000,
or 10y Imprisonment at hard labor not ex.
ceedng fifteen years, or by both, in the dis.
cretion OF the court
The law of February 5, 1867, section 2.
enacts that it shall not lie lawful to engrave,
design, print, or in any manner make or
execute, ur to utter, distribute, circulate, or
use any business or professional card, notice,
placard, circular, hand bill. or advertise.
inent, in the likeness or similitude of any
bond, certificate of Indebtedness, eriticate
of deposit, coupon, United States note,
Treasury note, circulating note fractional
note, postage stamp note, or other ubiga,
tion or other security of the United States.
And any person or persons, offending
against the provisions Of this section. shall
be subject to a penalty of 500, to he recov-
cred 10y an action Of debt, one half to the
use of the informer.
The conuterieits in question are one
dollar bills, fac Smiles of the genuine with
the exceptions that Mr.. Seynours face is
substituted for that of Mr.. Chase, and the
word "hondholders' is inserted for "bearer." D."
The signature of F. Z. Spinner. treasurer,
written upon them is a deliberate forgery.
Mr.. Spinners attention has been called to
the counterfeit, and of il he says
This paper seems clearly to lie of the kind
that the law was intended to interdict, and
it seems to be equally clear that any person
who has done anything in the way OF putting
it into circulation is equally subject to the
pains and penalties denounced by the
statute.
When will the Democratic party cease to
add the most damning crimes Of the calendar
to its history Z 1t is yet unwashed of re.
bellion. 1t is stained with repudintion. 1t
is besmirched with frauds in naturalization
and colonization, and now it stands arragn-
ed for impiously and deliberately talsifying
the money of the nation. The American
people will see to it that the criminal shall
not escape unscathed from the dock. Let
the verdict in November he 80 pronounced
as to settle forever the Democratic career of
crime.

Trr ReprnI1cAN VfcToRY THE election
:, ponnsylvapia has not only decided that
PENNSYLVANIA is Republican, but it has set
tied the question of the Presidency. The
Republican majority in the State is from TO-
600 to $4,000 We lose one member OF Con
press in Philadelphia Ivy fraudulent votes,
and while we lose one or two State Senators,
we gain twice as many members in the lower
House. The recent election shows conc'u-
sively that Grant and G 'ltax will carry
Pennsylvania hy not less than 10000. The
New York World, and other leading Demo-
cratic papers, embraced, in the calculations,
Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana and Nebraska,
for Seymour and Blair. These States have
all gone for the Republicans. Deducting
the 63 electoral votes of these States it leaves
the Democracy, according to their own
journals, about 90 electoral votes, or about
one-third of the whole number, while Grant
and Colfax will receive the remaining two
thirds.
We have now no doubt Of New York, and
the result will be, as we have always pre-
dictcd, Republican victory as overwhem-
ing as that Of Lincoln in 1864.

that the statement to be published month
