The T.ro Financial Policies.

The Democracy propose TO pay OIL
the debt contracted before the general
suspension of specie payments by act
Of Congress in coin, together with all
that part of the war debt which, by
the acts creating 1t, or the bonds evi-
dencing it, is made payable in coin ;
and all the residue OF the debt created
after the suspension ofspecie payments
which was notice TO the purchaser,
and notice TO the world as to the law
governing its creation and controlling
its payment-they propose TO pay in
legal-tender Treasury notes
The policy Of the Democracy is "a
pay off the Federal debt; and that
the taxes Of 1866, with the circulating
medium of 1866, were as easily paid
as the taxes Of 1868 viii be paid with
the amount Of circulating medium Of
1868; and that with the taxes Of 1866
continued for eight years, with the is.
sue of LEGAL tender notes as proposed.
every dollar of the Federal debt could
be paid, and paid with much less pres.
sure on the people and general bust.
ness of the country than the interest
alone can b. paid according to the
policy proposed by our opponents.
The difference between our policy
and that of our opponents is simple
clear, and fundamental. Our oppo
nents propose that the American peo-
pie shall pay, in interest alone, in ev,
cry sixteen years an amount sufficient
to pay every dollar of the debt with
out really paying one cent of it.
All the pretensions OF the Radicals
in Congress and out of itare but shams
and humbugs, and as illusory as those
of Mr.. Pitt after the peace of Amiens
They postpone the payment Of the
national debt until the next century
and in the meantime tax the people
and make them pay, every sixteen
years, as much in interest as will pay
the whole of the debt, besides entail.
ing upon them forever a horde of tax
collectors, spies and plunderers, when
with great ease, the Democratic poll
cy, if carried out, will pay off the
whole debt in eight years, and put an
end to Federal taxes, except duties or
imports, which you pay when you
purchase and pay for an imported ar.
ticle
But our opponents never want this
debt paid On the contrary, they de
sire it to be continued forever, as the
great engine Of the plutocracy, TO con
troll and command the labor of the
country. The great governing pow
er, that shall enslave through neces-
ty and grind 20 death without mercy,
perpetuate wealth to the wealthy and
poverty to the poor.

A horrible outrage was pcrpelNted
az the toll-gate house between Royal
Oak and Birmingham on The Pontiac
road, on Sunday night The house
was occupied BY family named Pul.
len. The only male member Of the
household, VIM. Pallen, went away
from home short time since, leaving
his mother, an aged lady, and his wife
aud sister at homo. About : o'clock
on Sunday evening two cinnamon
colorcd negroes called at the house
and asked for drink, which Miss Lo-
rinda Pullen procured for them, They
withdrew reluctantly and as they went
seemed 10 examine tho door and OBJ
serve the windows very closely. AT
half-past ten the family was startled
by a heavy rap on the door, and one
OF the women on looking out Of the
window recognized tho two negroes
who had been there for water in the
early part Of the evening They were
very much alarmed, and the old lady
and Mrs. VIM. Pullen went up stairs
for safety. Miss Lorinda tried TO in
duce them to remainand defend them
selves with an axe and hat6het, the
only weapons Of defence in the house.
The negroes were at this time trying
TO effect an entrance at one OF the
windows, and Miss Pullcn proposed
that her sister-in-law and herself sta.
ton themselves on either side of the
window and as the negoes entered
deal them blows with the axe and
hatchet, but before she could overcome
the fears of her timid comrade the
scoundrels effected an entrance to the
room, and seizing hold of Miss Pullen
demanded all the money in the house
She told them she hadn't much, and
begged them TO spare life. She went
to the drawer where the gate money
was kept and gave them the contents
about sixteen dollars. They were not
satisfied with this; they must have
more money, they said, or they would
kill all in the house. Miss Puller
then produced two five dollar notes
which she also gave them, and they
went up stairs and seizing Mrs. VIM
Pullen, subjected her to the mosl
wanton outrage. She finally escaped
from their grasp and succeeded il
getting out of the house. She raj
with all her speed to the nearest neigh
Dor, whom she aroused and with sew
eral others returned to the toll house
The negroes became alarmed after sh'
got out Of the house and fled.
We cannot learn that any efficien
steps for their capture have been Ia
ken, in fact but little was known re
garding the affair by our police au
thorities till last evening, when som'
one from the neighbOrhood reported
the affair to an officer. 1t seem
strange that the officers, if there arr
any in that vicinity, should let two
days pass without some active efforti
at securing the perpetrators of 81
gross an outrage. Detroit Free Press

LOYAL NEwsPAPKRs.-The carpet.
baggcrs down South bave cute way
Of keeping up their newspapers. The
Philadelphia Age says: "Asone means
of carrying the State of Louisiana,
the Radical Legislature has author.
lied certain parties to establish q
paper in each parish in the State, 10
have all the legal advertising Of the
parish, and publish therein not only
all the laws of the State, at a dollar a
square, but all the useless journals OF
the two houses, which are hardly
worth publishing at all, and which, i
was seriously proposed in 1866, to
give up publishing in the official Jour
nal of the State. This is on par with
the manner IN which the funds Of the
Federal government are squandered
in the South by publishing all adver-
usements in 'truly loyal journals,
although a majority of them do not
circulate FIVE hundred copies. But
these editors and conductors are
agents, spies and tools Of the Radical
party; they manipulate the negro
vote, and play second fiddle TO the
Bureau managers, and this is the
manner in which they are paid. In
Louisiana, and in the Union, the Radi-
cal party not only cnslave white men,
but they compel them to pay their
tyrants."

We want our readers to give both

without doubt the most incompetent
man that ever accepted nomination

Tar DEBT.-The August statement
Of the "national blessing" vouchsafed
to us by the loyalists, has been pub
lished. The debt has been increased
since the June statement was publish-
cd, thirteen million two hundred and
eighty thousand dollars. The Radical
party Is as unfit TO manage the ma
tional finances as the inmates Of 8
lunatic asylum. They have several
regiments in the field assessing prop
erty and gathering taxes, yet the
debt is increasing every month.
Under such mal-administration total
bankruptcy must soon overtake us.

Pennsylvania Interests.

A circular from the office of the In
dustrial League of Pennsylvania at
JohnstowD, Pa, has been forwarded
to this office, with the request that
we will "urge upon Congress tho pas
sage of the short tariff bill reported
by the Committee of Ways and Means"
Ii further informs us that from the
reports and correspondence in pos
session of the league, "but one hdb Of
the manufacturing capacity Of the State
is notc employed, and there is consequent
suffering and loss in all the ioalks o.
industry" Precisely so. And who,
pray, is responsible for this suffering
and loss Let the Industrial League
answer. Have we not again and again
charged the Radical majority in Con.
grcss with having trifed with the in
terests Of the peopley What does that
majority care for the white working
men of Pennsylvania They can leg
islate for the worthless negroes OF
the South - appropriate millions Of
dollars TO keep them in idleness while
the white workingmen of the North
are suffering at every point. Our
friends of tho Industrial League ought
to know by this time that Democratic
appeals 10 Congress in behalf of the
interest of white men are Of no ac-
count. Their efficacy has been tested
again. 1t amounts to nothing what
ever. If we were to advocate the
claims Of the negro encourage the
operations Of the Freedmen's Bureau
and sanction the maintenance Of an
immense standing army in the South
perhaps they would listen to us, but
anything we could say in behalf Of
the white workingmen of Pennsylva-
MIA would be time and arguments
wasted.
If the Industrial League would have
the pkole Of the manufacturing capa-
city Of the State" employed let its
members turn inand support the Dem
ocratic nominees. If the white work.
ingmen of the State desire a restora
ton of the prosperity Of ten years
ago, let them do likewise The cir
cuIar before US is broad, open con-
fession that Radical legislation has
prostrated the industrial interests of
the State Of Pennsylvania, and that
it has entailed suffering and loss upon
all classes of the community, and
more especially upon the white work
ingmen. Let this fact not be forgot
