IN the Fist place then, let us speak Of the
cord of the Radical party md the charges alleged
against it. During the war there was but one
party at the North. Before the war there were
three-the Union, the Republican, and the Demo
cratic. During the war these united under one
government. The Radical party was the party
through whom all the utterances OF the Federal
Government were made; and they said that the
war was solely for the restoration OF the Union
Everything, was gnl9nTthe Union army, Wai
for the Union, and nag OF the Union; 1sl
mo sooner had the armies surrendered, than TINS
party showed Itself to pc based upon revolution
tand agitation 1t comes before enc country WED
the assurance that the Union had been dissolved,
Their leaders said they were leglslating outside ot
the Constitution. It folsifed all its previous dec
aratigns What is to be expected 9f sncl par
ty? They said we had not the right to dissolve
tthe Union, and by the prosecution and terminal
Ption of:the .warthey- maintained that view; and
after that proof that we Yerein the Union, they
denied t-thus making themselves, practical Sc
cessonists. ,.i,, o.~.s7 a,;;, H., gsI e =,
/ This party is not republican party, tor IT has
not republican principles. After the war, 1t abot
| ished the republican, forms of government Of the
Southern States! and substituted military despo-
tisns n their stead I need not recapituhte to you
all that they have done ;;y9u remember lt al but
too well. They refuse still to give US repnbli
can form Of government In addition to this, they
V;olate3 the GREAT principles of repubaicanism
They have enforced taxation without representa-
ttiousi How many of youare there who paytaxest to
the bogus government of this State, who are not
entitled to vote for members of the legislative
body? How many OF, you whose ancestry breathed
theair Of victory at king Mountain and COwpeHs,
