IF thei Internal fanatics and abolitionists

override the Constitution, set the supreme
court at defiance, change and make laws to

These declarations were made by
the Sage of Marshfeld more than
eighteen years ago; and at a time
when radicalism was weak and held in
check by public sentiment. The keen
vision of Mr.. Webster detected the
purposes of the agitators of that De-
riod, and perceiving their designs and
tendencies, he gave utterance to the
above sentiments. How well and full
ly his declarations have been verified.
We will now proceed to show.

Is this true? Who can dispute it?

Garneid,
DEBATE

We find the following debate in the
proceedings of the Federal House OF
Representatives, May 18th, as reported
in the Daily Globe. It will be Seen
that Mr.. GARFIELD suffered c~onsidera-
bly, in the contest
Mr.. GARFIELD-Mr. Speaker, I
do not rise to discuss the main top ic
now under consideration, but to notice
a reference to Ohio made by the gen
tleman who has just taken his seat(Mr.
Beck). He claims hat it is obligatory
on tho Ohio delegation in this House
to take his view of this bill, because u
Ohio Legislature has lately sent reso-
buttons here in structing, or at least re-
questing all the Ohio members of this
House to vote against all the Recon
.struction bills. Now, I admit we ought
to pay great Difference to the express
sios of opinion of our State Legisla-
lures, provided those Legislatures are
by their conduct entitled to our respect.
While I repudiate the doctrine that a
State Legislature has a right to give
any binding instructions to the men,
beers of this House, I still admit that
we ought to listen with respect to all
respectable Legislatures. But in ans
wering the gentleman's argument, I
raise the question whether the present
Legislature of Ohio is emit
tied by its character and conduct to in
struct any Representative in Congress.
In order to settle that question, I beg
briefly to cite a few of the Lead
ing acts of that body. VIZ will then
be able to see whether they are entitled

THE PRESIDE NCY.

-
In the selection of a candidate fol-
the Presidency it is important that a
true representative of the will and
principles of sound democracy should
be nominated, otherwise, the nomina.
ton will fail to secure the appreciation
of the people, and will elicit no en-
thusiasm.
There are those in the field solicit
ing a nomination from the hands Of
of the democracy, who propose to de
fer the payment ofthe national debt, that
future generations may have the priv.
ilege of liquidating the same, under
the pretense that the wal was fought
for the benefit of the future, and
those who are to come after us.
This theory of paying our national
debt, would be akin to the extrava-
CANT parent who had recklessly in
volved himself in debt and refused to
pay his creditors, under the pretense
and hope that his grand children
might some day have the generosity to
pay off his creditors. The idea hat a
generation is coming after us who will
be compelled to decide the manner of
paying our public debt, could only
have had its origin in the brain of a
b~ondholder Dr. government Shylock.
There can be nothing more certain
than that the bond holders would ex-
ult over such a programme. Why?
Because they are paying little or no
taxes, and have the bonds in the shape
they desire They have a mortgage
on every mans farm, and a suspended
lash over the head of every laboring
man in the land by which they mean
to grind and goad them for all future
time, and hold their children and
children's children as serfs.
While the bond holder is holding
this capital and living in luxury, the
masses are draining out their life
blood by exhausting toll. to meet the
demands of the tax-gatherer and
treasury thieves. These bond hold
ers earn nothing, pay nothing, and
fatten on the life-blood of the people
who are paying over six hundred mil
lions Of taxes, that ten states may be
kept out of the union and the aboh-
ton cormorants may fatten ON the
How4ong will the people endure this ?
The bond holders and their pimps de-
precate agitation, and are using every
means to quiet the apprehensions of
the people. These agitations will go
on with increased force till the bond
holder consents to use the same cur
rency that is forced on the people
No threats can prevent this. The
will present the uHimatum-I
or nothing. VIII the
the bond holder take them? IF so,
all will go on smoothly. If not, let
the Shylocks beware. Gold and silver
to all alike. They constitute
the peoples currency. If the people
must take Greenbacks, let the bond
holder take the same for his bonds and
interest.
In the Nomination of a democratic
for President, the people,
the sound democracy of the land, IN
'ist that these principles shall be In
in our platform and adhered
o under all circumstances. If this
lemand is evaded In the convention,
We r those who attempt to sell out,

The fsgman approached near the house,

many and mysterious ways. The sur

for their lives
