Liberty against Despotism.

BY reference TO Eastern dispatches it
will be seen that the perjured usurpefs
who run the Rump machine have, at last,
taken the final step towards absolute pow
or. johnson alone stood between them
and their wicked purpose. Him they
would have removed long since. had they
felt sure Of their footing. To do this with
safety, the army must be debauched and,
as a necessary preliminary to this, Grant
must be captured. This could only be
done by appeals To his vanity and ambi-
ton. Hence, he was put forward-frst,
to play the role Of Dictator ; and, second
~, as their candidate tor the next Presi-
dency. Such appeals to a naturally weak
mind, unsupported by any moral princi-
pie, had It's effect. Grant gave heed to
the tcmpters, ond, after some apparent
struggles, became their plant, obedient
and INSCRIPTIONS tool. Standing before
the country convicted, upon u%nimpcacha.
bic testimony, as a falsifer Of his plight
ed word, and Il dirty trickster in the
hands Of the most abandoned and corrupt
faction that ever disgraced a civilized age
or country, he is a fit leader for the Mon
grcl dcspots. If the dispatches be true,
Grant is now the Dictator Of the entire
country. He has issued orders TO the ar
my officers that they are no longer to
obey their and his Constitutional Com
mander.in Chief, but only such commands
as he shall give them. Thus it is that
our Federal Union is overthrow and a
central dcspotism established instead.
1t is perhaps well that the issue is upon
us. We suppose, although there is DO
certainty, hat the usurpcrs design to 60
through the forms of u Presidential cleo
ton. There eau be no mistaking, in that
event, the nature Of the contest. 1t is
one Of popular liberty against despotism.
Of course johnson will be deposed. He
long ago let his opportunity pass. lie
has, as il were, passivcly submitted to be
shorn of his power, from time to time,
until now he stands before the country a
helpless and powerless a His per
sonai quarrel with the usurpers car moi
be made the quarrel of the Democracy.
The same party which chose The Que
elected the other. They are. therefore,
responsible, not only fer the acts of omis.
sion, indecision aud criminal weakness on
the part Of the President, out for all the
Observation-Disclosures, corruption aud usur.
patton ON the part Of the Rump traitors.
Since, therefore, it is apparent that the
Radical Directory will get rid of their
President aud, in effect. merge the office
in themselves, the Democratic party must
make the issue before the people, not Of
johnson against the Rump or of the
Rumr against Johnson, but of liberty
and a white mans government against
despotism and a Mongrel usurpation. II
such u contest, unless the people are un.
fit for self government, there can be NJ
mistaking the result. The grand old ban

The Chase Platform.

u
A Washington special of the
18th to the Cincinnati Commercial
says: ..a. ..a.
l have seen the original draft of
the platform which had been
agreed upon between the chief JUS
tice and some of the most promi-
nent Democrats in the country,
and the leading spirits of the New
York convention. I have been as
sured by a friend of the chief JUS
tice who had in his possession the
document referred to, that the plat
form was formally agreed upon as
the one, and the only one, on which
Mr.. Chase was willing to accept
the nomination of the New York
convention. The following are
three of the resolutions, as copied
from the original! S"
"That the American Democra-
cy, reposing their trust, under God,
in the intelligence, the patriotism,
and the discriminating justice of
the American people, declare their
fixed adhesion to the great princi-
pies of equal rights and equal JUS
tice for all nen, and all States,
and their purpose to apply them,
within constitutional limits, to all
questions which, in the exigencies
of public affairs, may demand con-
sideration and solution.
"That In a land of Democratic
institutions all public or private
interests repose most securely on
the broadest basis of suffrage but
under the system of distinct though
united States, which distinguishes
our American government from
the consolidated governments of
the Old World, both wisdom and
duty require that the application
of this principle be left in the
several States, under the Constitu-
ton Of the United States, to the
people of each State, without the
interference of the national gov
eminent.
"That honor and duty alike
raniiira the honest naymenf If the
public debt, and the faithful per-
Torrance of all public obligations /;
but we do not admit that creditors,
more than other men, are entitled
to special favor In the interpreted
ton of that law by which their
rights and public duties are
determined, The Interpretation Of
laws, In cases of conflicting inter
ests, belongs to the courts"

In Buffalo, a case has been tried
with reference to the validity Of
New York law requiring colored
children to attend separate schools
from the whites. A colored girl
having entered one of the white
schools and being permitted to re-
main by the teacher, complaint
was made to the superintendent,
and he decided that she must leave.
Upon this case was made up,
and the Buffalo Supreme Court
decided against the right of colored

excepting those designed for them

Inaugural Of the Governor.

Mr.. President and Gentlemen. Of stBe Sen
ate and House Of Representatives:
I am deeply impressed with the
grave and peculiar significance of
this occasion and the magnitude
of the responsibility which I am
this day to assume. I trust the
hearts of all of us are moved and
pervaded by a realizing sense Of
the new and serious duties we have
been called upon to discharge.
Before me is the first Legislature
as an equal member of the Amer
lean Union that has sat for seven
years. I need not recount to you
the history OF these seven, years, so
full of startling and wonderful as
well as painful and terrible events
so pregnant with momenfo1s
issues, so productive of great and
glorious results. Nor do I deem it
expedient at this time to trace the
chain Of causes which led, to these
events, and produced these results,
or to discuss the questions of who
have been most culpable and res
ponsible for whatever has been
wrong or mistaken in the past, and
who are most deserving of credit
for whatever is good In the present.
We have here met, not to speculate
upon the past, nor to brood and
quarrel over its ashes, but rather to
meet the great living issues of the
present, and the duties which it
imposes upon us. We stand amid
the ruins Of an old order of things;
it should be ours to work wisely
and manfully for the establishment
of q new and better order of things
upon the foundation which these
seven years have established. So
long as time is spent in futile and
irritating discussions upon the
readiness and probable permanenoy
of these foundations, or persistent
and perhaps turbulent efforts to
unsettle and upheave them, so
long will the public peace, order,
and tranquility refuse to be re-
stored, and so long viii the restor-
alton and development of all the
great interests Of the State be
delayed and endangered,
Gentlemen, the corner stone of
these foundations, laid and fixed
forever by q great war, sealed as
4 firmly believe by the hand Of God
himself, and recognized by that
organic law under which we have
assembled and which I am here To
swear to support and defend, Is
the equality before the law and the
enjoyment of every political rights
