A Dreary Farce.

A corporal residing in Wisconsin, named
Bates, a Copperhead OF the first water,
envyiDg Weston the postal currency he
made out of his tramp from Portland to
Chicago, conceived the idea of reaping
harvest out of "a similar walk. To this end,
he announced his intention to walk from
Vicksburg to Washington, carrying the
Federal flag, without money, that the peo-
pie of the North might be convinced that
the people of the South cherished nothing
but affection for the sod flag,
Ample preparations were made for the
journey. The Copperhead journals of
Wisconsin were careful, in announcing, to
state, that the Sergeant" as he styled
himself, was a I" Democrat" that he had
ever been q bitter, uncompromising enemy
of the "Abolitionists and fanatics" of the
North, and that in him the people of the
South would find not only a tr1e friend,
but sturdy champion. With this endorse
ment the Sergeant started. The rebel press
made his path easy and his way straight.
They published his route that preparations
might be made for his entertainment, and
they begged the Confederates on the route
10 do him no harm, but to see that he WAS
put safely through, for "the effect it would
have at the North" He came through all
right having been feasted and fondied by
rebels from Vicksburg to Washington, TO
his hearts content. 'a#,s
At Washington this poor mountebank
was received by Senator Dooliitle, Repre-
sentative Eldridge, and committees of the
Conservative Army and Navy Union, the
Anti Radical Club, and the johnson De-
partmental Club, the President, Doolittle,
and Edridge making speeches. t.5t
We do not know what the Copperheads
expect to make by this. II the object of
the trip was to show that Northern Cop
perhead could walk through the Southern
States, it was unnecessary. The unrepent-
ant of the South know their friends too
well. The carrying of the flag signifies
nothing the time for again asssiling it has
not yet arrived. If 9 Republican soldier,
who believes in the principles for which
he periled his life, were permitted to walk
fifty miles in Mississippi with the Federal
flag, unharmed, it would indicate some
thing-but that the rebels permitted rep.
resentatiye Of their friends to doit proves
that they were willing TO endure the sight
of the flag for the sake of The man who
bore it, and only that.-1o1edo Blade.

and is imperatiyely demanded, and that

ton are distributed among the taxpayers
exactly in proportion TO the amount OF
taxes they pay? Can there be any fairer
mode of dividing the benefits of the ex-
emption of bonds from taxation than to
divide it among the taxpayers in proper
ton to the amount for which they are tax.
able .eia1 cl1 su s3sg L.4sfp 81 ';ig
Dem. Well, that is not exactly the point
of view from which had locked at it. 1t
has looked to me very much like the op-
preston of the poor tax payers for the sake
of the rich bondholders.,ad> higow 4s5as
For. Now you are returning to point
upon which was talking with a member
of your party the other day. He did not
seem to have read HOratio Seymour's
speech at the New York State Con 7ention,
in which he shows that the bcndholders
are, as class, much poorer than the tax
payers, and that p'ost of the national debt
is owned by the poorer classes. 81 h13s
Dem. You refer to the fact that deposits
in Savings banks, and the capital of the in
surance and banking companies, have Ia
ken that form. la7g @ j1o6s s3ae
For. Yes, the attempt to divide the
American people into two classes, and call
one tax-paye rs and another bondholders, is
az fallacious as to attempt to divide them
into producers and consumers, or into buy
ers and sellers. You are all tax payers, and
you are all bondholders, whether you de-
sire to be, or are even conscious of being
30 or not. The burden of the national
debt is 30 diffused that every individual in
TIE country osofas part of it and owes q
part of it. The hostile classes of which
you speak exist only in the idle clap-trap
of demagogues.-C Chicago Tribune. 81 a3sd
