+" BlOated BOndhOlders."

IT has always been trick of the Dem
ocrats TO invent some slanderous catch
word or phrase and seek to fasten it upon
their opponents. AT one time they per-
sisted in styling those Of the opposite faith,
"Federalists" This was done long after
the old Federal party was dead, and not
Withstanding some of the Democratic
chiefs, like Buchanan, had themselves
been the stiffest Of Federalists.
At another time it was the Democratic
cue always to speak of their opponents as
"the silk stocking gentry Another Of
their lying inventions was the charge of
having been "bought up with British
gold" Daniel Webster was always being
bought up in this way, and rs he was sup
posed to hold the Wing party in the hol-
low of his hand, the charge touched the
whole. We we'll remember how Isaac
Hill, that noted Locofoco of by-gone years,
never wearied of ringing the changes in
his paper on these words of political
o1ium These were the rounds of his
ladder by which he mounted from print.

For the present campaign the party OF

no word will be spoken so often or so EN-
phatically in Democratic discourse as thiI
alliterative phrase In their use of the
phrase il is implied that all the bondhold
ers are Republicans, and that all ar,
"bloated." This last is the coloring word
without which the other would be of little
signifcation. Now il is worth while u
inquire who these same bloated-bond

vaults OF the savings banks. We shall
there find many millions of dollars worth
of the bonds. They were bought with the
moneys that were deposited In those banks.
They were bought for the purpose Of saw
ing dividends, the very purpose for which
the money was deposited. They are held
by the banks In trust for the depositors
they in fact belong to the depositors. And
the depositors are the widows and the
orphans, the Bridgets and the Johns, and
all the persons of all savings an innumera-
BILE throng. Bridget in the kitchen
saved her wages, and put them into
the bank, and lol she has become
"bloated .bondholder." John in
the shoe shop has been guilty of the same
villainy. Our baby just born has received
a hundred dollars from grandpapa for his
name and IL has been deposited, and now

chanics all over the land. They represent
the earnings and savings Of honest industry
in all its branches. The owners Of these
bonds have not many of them, still they
are bloated bondholders; for IL seems that
somehow, simply to be a bondholder Is to
be "bloated"
Let us view the subject in another light
The bonds represent the national debt
This debt was incurred in order to save
the life of the nation. In sore extremity
the Government lmplored each citizen to
loan his money There was risk in so
doing, and many preferred to lend their
money ON town notes at lower rate.

whom the appeal of patriotism was not
made in vain. They took the risk and
loaned their money and received the bonds.
Thus 1t was that they became "bloated
bondholders" Really, then in bloated
bondholder is one who was friend Of
his country in its hour of need. The sol.
diers did much to save the Union, but the
bloated hondholder did something also.
In this view of the case it would seem
also that the greater the blOat the greater
was the patriotic service. Here, for exam.
pie, is one whose bonds are so abundant
that it takes him all day to cut off the
coupons A terrible bloat, undoubtedly;
but then observe of what noble and
Astounding patrlotismit furnishes the proof
A letter has Just been published contain
ing the statement authorized by Mr.. Sey-
mour, that he does not own bond and
never did own one. That is to say, Mr.
Seymour is not ashamed to proclaim that
from first to last, all through the war and
down to the present time, he has had no
confidence in the Union, no true friend
ship for his country. He is rich, he has
plenty of money to invest, but he will not
trust the nation with dollar of it, Had
all followed his example during the war
the Union would have persisted; were all
to follow it now universal bankruptcy
would ensue. When such man, candi-
date for the Presidency, can stand up, and
in the face of all Europe thus decry our
national credit, we shall welcome the name
of "bloated bopdholder" as one most de-
scriptive of what he is not Worcester

Another Illustration.

A LATE incident in Connecticut has not
been sufficiently considered in connection
with the revolutionary spirit of the Demo
cratic party. 1t has been long known
that the Connecticut elections, especially
in New Haven, and in parts of the State
easily accessible from New York, have
been shamefully fraudulent. The Legisla-
ture at its recent session passed a bill to
purify elections by careful registry and
proper issue of naturalization papers.
The bill was rigidly examined and vigor-
ously discussed 1t was opposed with
warmth and bitterness by the Democratic
party, and finally passed by a strictly party
vote of the Republicans The Democrats
generally oppose a registry and all safe
guards at the ballot. The point in our
whole system which should be most watch
fully defended is one which they strive to
leave most exposed. The reason is OBJ
vious. The Democratic party is recruited
not from the intelligent youth of the coun-
try but from the most ignorant class of
foreign immigrants; and every protection
of the ballot founded upon intelligence,
residence, and honesty at the polls is,
therefore, a limitation of the Democratic
vote. When the bill in question passed
the Connecticut Legislature the Demo
cratic newspapers threatened violent resist
ance, especially in New Haven, the scene
of the chief election frauds.
The bill was placed in the office of the
Secretary of State, and just before it was
laid before the Governor for his signature
it was discovered that the cords of the tdqo
had been secretly changed, so as to deprive it
of its most effective and desirable proyi-
sions. These forgeries, moreover, were
substantially the changes which the De-
mocratic party had attempted to introduce
into the bill The law was redraWn as
originally passed, and was again adopted
by the Legislature. The incident illus
trates the utterly INSCRIPTIONS and dan
erous spirit of the party which nominates
for Vice President man who furiously
appeals TO the sword as political remedy
which counts among its leaders the most
relentless of rebels, and among its SUP.
porters the great mass of the most igno-
rant and reckless of the population. The
Democratic party, despising equal rights,
is found every where Identified with acts
and measures which are not only lawless
but which poison the very springs of law
and organized society.-Rdyper Weekly

Agricultural HOss TrOts.

Al this season of horse-racing, Josh Bill
lings' moral reflections ON the equine sub
ject are worthy of attention:
Men who hav crate deal to do with
hosses seem to demoralize faster than the
hosses dc.
Hosses are like dice and kards, altho
they are virtuous enuH themselves, how
natral It is TO gambol with them.
Hoses love the society &c man, and be-
ing susceptible Of CRATE deceit, they will
learn a maa TO cheat and lie befor he
knows IT,
know lots NV folks who are real Plus,
and who are onest enuff TO work up into
United States assessors, and such good
moral chunks LEFT over, but when they
come 10 talk hoss, they want as much look
! ing after as q case Of dipiheFy.

Democratic Argument.

A GOOD illustration of the fact that the
Southern Democrats will use force, wher-
ever practicable, to compel the negroes to
vote the Democratic ticket, is afforded in
the following card, signed Albert Pike,
which is published in the Memphis Appeal:
"The members of the Democratic Club
of colored men can obtain from the Presi-
dent of the Central Club cards that cannot
be counterfeited, recommending them for
employment to conservatives. No others
need apply. We hope that hereafter,
when any Democrat desires to employ a
colored man in any capacity, he will ask
to see his card, and if none is produced aoat
refuse to employ him. To employ those who
have none will be to gioe aid and COMFORT
to tie enemy. Members of the club desir-
ing cards will please procure certificates of
membership from the Secretary. The
committee of the Central Club, appointed
to register the names of colored men need
ing employment or relief and to procure
either for them, consists of Martin Kelly,
d. Danbury and Thomas Smith, To the
committee which is permanent one, col
ored men holding cards, and needing work
or relief, will apply and be registered.
To the same committee it is hoped that
those Democrats who want to employ
colored men will apply.

A German Campaign Article.

The New York Criminal Zsitung,
German weekly paper, which has very
large circulation among the Germans Of
this country, contains the following article
in a late issue
The Presidential campaign, as far as the
North is concerned, is no very passionate
one till now, although some newspapers
are not free of utterances of ire. The
quiet of the North is chiefly to be ex-
planned by the uneasiness in the South,
which shows the North what duty it has to
perform. There were indeed in no cam
paign more principles involved than there
arein the present one, and nearly everybody
knows what TO do. II on one side are
Wade Hampton and Forrest, and on the
other side Grant and Sheridan, no doubt
can rise, because the form Of Frank Blair
is to be seen between both sides One
party says "DOwn with Congress and
its reconstruction, while the other party
wants 10 support Congress in its national
policy, and To maintain its work and com
plete it, Here they are threatening a new
civil war, while there we hear the words
"Let us have peace" Here the disputing
and doubling of the obligations contracted
by the nation is stigmatized as a crime
while on the other side they openly de
mand the breach of a solemn promise

The Spnuish RcyOlutiou.

Our latest news from Europe regarding
the revolution in Spain shows that that
country is no exception to the general
rule. Revolutions have their peculiari ties
one and all. but it is wonderful how like
the one il to the other. On this Continent we
have a sharp way of settling what Europe
calls a revolution but then we are n new peo-
pie. and new people have new ways. On the
other side IL is curious to notice how old
fashioned all their ways are. The Spanish
revolution is the first thing Of the kind which
has happened in Europe since our four years
struggle. Spain began well; but, SO far as we
can Judge from present appearances. Spain is
away back in the sixteenth century, and has
yet all essential lessons to learn. She wants
men; she wants everything. One conclu-
sion at least seems 10 be fair--Spain is to be
leitto work out her own destiny II may be
along work. il may be short work. Who
can tell which: This at least seems Justine
one is disposed TO NEEDLE with her; and. "a was
the case with the great revolutions in England
and in France. Spain is very likely TO be
allowed to work ont her own destiny IT Spain
makes bungle Of il the fault will be her own
