The Democratic party is at sea. Its leaders
are advertising for platform and Candidate

inquire who is he, nor indeed, ~hdt is he? but

Black Republican in the whole land like Judge
Ch Sc, would be acceptable TO them III their DIS
trrss. But nothing can save them, not the su-
perabounding grace OF Andy johnson, nor the
murderuus work of the Kiu-kux Khan, nor any
| other creature They must kick the beam.
Such party, with such record, is doomed to
be buried under avalanche of PNular oppro-
brum, with no sign visible of the coming OF the
bright resurrection morn. That 'ground SWELL
winch Johnson foretold, has indeed come, and
UaH goes out from the camp of COpperheddIsm,
AS the bell must toll when the earthquake goes
rocking under its found tionS.
johnson is IA cIpner. There are none to sing
his Praises except those who, trAmpling
broken oaths, sought to stab the Unrol TO the
heart. But am not going TO discuss Andrew
johnson, nor his policy, nor b futures. HIS
time is short the most, and he Is substantially
poweress. Like II heathen god, he can neither
! bless nor curse. PuDlic sentiment will do him
ample Justice and, indeed Will do justice in this
whole matter. II will give 10 eacn party, and to
every prominent man III it, his true place IN the
temple OF fame on the roll of diShonor.

As tnln dead
The world moves - and we are catching
gllmpses of the coming glory of new of
progress aud equality. Slavery is dead. The
reuellon is dead. The country is saved. The
men who saved it, by the blessing of God, will
control it, and there is no hope for the sympa-
| thzers with treason. Don't ,tter yourselves,
| you who didn't blame the South for seceding-
who said we couldn't conquer the South, and
who aided and abetted their stupendous crime
don't hatter yourselves that your political sins
will ever be forgiven in this world. You will do
well to bend all your efforts toward the next.
/ You have seen the last of your new moons and
your appointed feasis. Grant and Colfax will
march Immediately To your works. aud wW dc-
cent no terms but unconditional surrender.
