says they arc attempting to throw overheard
the principles and policy Of the party, hoping
in what will prove failure if attempted to
march to victory with the name of soldier on
their banner, aud in the smoke Of cigar: and
that the party is guilty Of the inconsistency

Which is the Royal Party:

IF to be loyal, means to be obedent to the
Constitution of the United States and the laws
made in pursuance thereof, We should like TO
have the radical leaders prove their loyalty by
this test The conservatives throughout the
country, North and South, are loyal to the
Constitution The radicals, On the contrary,
declare that the Constitution does not exist in
theory or practice in this Union, although ola
Thad says "some fragments Of it stick in the
gizzards of few men, Although they have
sworn to support it, they never hesitate to vIo
late it whenever party interests require them to
do so. They are constantly eglslatlng ''out'ldc
of it," and in order to smother even the vain
circumstances of the Executive, they are now
procee ling to depose the President. They have
also, as Schonck says, ''clipped the wings OF the
Supreme Court" lest that tribunal should by
by its decisions encourage the people to resist
ance. The radicals laugh at the Constitution,
and don't know what it is to be loyal. They
have been true to their passions, true to their
interests, but never true to the Constitution.
They are smart enough to know that in the
present condition of the country, Tie possession
Of the army and treasury is worth more to
them than thousand such niusty parchmcntS.
A brief glance at its record will show how false
they have been to everything but partisan m
terests. la 1858 they had possession OF the
State Governments and they magnlcd State
Rights They endorsed the resolutions OF 9S
and exalted the idea Of confederation Us against
unity. Chase, who was then Governor of Ohio
asscrted-'we have rights which TIC Federal
government must not invade; rights superior
to its power, on which our sovereignty depends,
and We mean to assert these rights against all
the tyranncal assumption OF authority. The
present Governor Of Ohio, and the radicals
generally, now assert that the States have
hardly any rights whatever. 10 1864 they as
serted that the President had the power to
| emancipatc four million slaves. They now deny
| that he has even the power to remove z mem
| Der OF the Cabinet. In 1868, when they cXcr
cised no authority in the Southern States, they
said the Union was unbroken, and admitted
| radical members OF Congress from several Of
them. Now, when they possess every foot OF
them, they insist that the Union was dissolved
and refuse them the benefit Of constitutional
government. In 1862 they desired to create
West Virginia, and in order to get the consent
| of the old State to its ACKNOWLEDGMENT, they
set up Pcrpoints bogus Legislature IN Alex
| andria Now they establish a military govern
ment over Picrpont on the ground that prior
to his election, secession had destroyed the
State In 1861 they made war 10 maintain the
| Constitution and the Union Now they arc
destroying both in order TO maintain their
| power Yet this party, violating the rights OF
the people at every step in its progress, Is con
stantly prating Of its loyalty. (D-M"yla"d

they are entirely ignorant. The Washington

THE ERIE RAILROAD Wharf.-The committee

The ERIE RAILROAD Wharf.-The committee
Of the New York Legislature has unanimously
agreed to report against the bill ratifying the
action of Daniel Drew & Co., in the late issue
of stock. The New York Express says: (.
"Thc controversy has again become the topic
of conversation in stock circles, and the sentl-
ment is now running in favor Of the Vanderbilt
interest 1t is thought that Mr.. Drew has
been free purchaser Of the stock since the de-
feat of bis bill in the New York Legislature,
and if this is So it is probably to fortify his
position. The new stock was sold at higher
prices, and therefore he could we'll afford to
buy it back at the ruling figures
The N. Y. Tribune says: 1.-THE Eric Rail
road Directors, who are still quartercd at Tay-
lor's Hotel, were visited by number of their
friends yesterday, and the situation during the
day was pretty thoroughly discussed. Some
information received at a later hour last evening
caused considerable rejoicing and merrlment,
but all interested were remarkably reticent as
to the cause. 1t leaked out at last that Mr..
Jay Gould, one of the principal Directors, had
decamped for parts unknown, taking with him
a black travelling bag, which, it IS rumored,
contained between two and three millions OF
dollars, being part of the funds over which
Mr.. Osgood was appointed receiver by Judge
Barnard. 1t is surmised by those who are
supposed to be well informed in relation to the
affairs of the management, that Mr.. Gould is
by this time either ct Toledo Or Akron, where
be is to let out the remaining contracts for the
building of the broad guagc connection between
the Atlantic and Great Western and Michigan
Southern Railroads. The money supposed to
be in his possession is to be used to make tie
advance payments on existing contracts"
