The NeW Hampshire Democracy

The Democrats of the Granite state
met i'm convention at Concord on the
Goth instant, and nominated Gen. John
Bedell for Governor, and Gen. Nj. L.
Donahoe for Railroad Commissioner.
Resolutions were adopted declaring,
among other things, the paramount
and binding authority of the Constitu-
ton over all departments of the Gov
eminent, and all the States of tho
Union, to the extent of the powers
therein granted; the right of every
state to an equal participation in the
government as guaranteed by the Con-
stitution the separation and proper i'll
dependence Of the Executive, Legisla-
tive and Judicial Departments, as pro
vded by the Constitution no privileged
class and no privileged capital; ana
that while all existing contracts en-
tered into in good faith should be fully
kept in the letter and spirit of the con-
tract. Congress should impose such just
and equal taxation upon all Govern
ment bonds and United States sccurl-
ties as will compel their holders to bear
their lust share of the burdens of the
Government, and all bonds hereafter
issued should be made subject to State
and municipal taxation at the same rates
as other property.
The resolutions, it will be seen, are
more moderate in their tone than those
adopted by former conventions. Inc
candidate for Governor, Gen. Bedell,
is native of New Hampshire, and was
educated at Newbury Seminary, YER
mont He served as private, Second
Lieutenant and Captain in the 9th L. ;.
Infantry, in the Mexican war. On re-
turning to New Hampton he read law,
was admitted to the bar, and COM
menced practice at Bath in company
with Hon. Harry Hibbard. He was af-
forwards for while clerk in the Third
uditor's office, at Washington, and af-
forwards in TIE Comptroller's Office in
the Treasury Department. y hen the
war broke out he was commissioned
Major of the Third New Hampshire
Regiment, and was successfully pro-
NOTED to the Lieutenant-C olonelcy and
Colonelcy. He was also brevetted a
Brigadier-General for mcritorious SER
vices. In the assault upon Fort Wag-
ncr, in 1868, he WIS taken prisoner and
was confined as a prisoner of war
nearly eighteen months, five of which
he was in solitary confinement. Since
the war Gen Bedell has resided in Bath.
Gen. Donohoe, the candidate for
Railroad Commissioner, entered the
war as Captain of an Irish company
from Manchester. He recruited, or
ganized, and was Col lionel of the Tenth
Irish Regiment. For gallant conduct
in the field he was brevetted Brigadie1
General. He now occupies the position
of railroad conductor between Concord
and Boston.

speak the sentiments Of ourselves and
people SO well that we reproduce the
article entire:
"The writer who first applied the
term carpet baggers' to certain class
Of adventurous iu the South. hit upon
one of the happicst descriptive cpi1hcts
that has been lately introduced iuto
the journalistic vocabulary. That its
force as an expression of rcproach and
contempt is keenly felt as shown b.
the earnest ana repeated endcavors o..
sandry Radical rapcrs to n.isconstrue
its meaning. We are tod that scarce
y oneh half of the municipal officers
Of all the leading cities Of the North
were born in the towns where they
now reside, and are, therefore, carpet
bAggors;' that most Of the members Of
the Legislatures Of the Western States
emigrated from the Atlantic seaboard,
and are carpet t-ba9gers," and tha; a
large number Of the we,ltiisst, most
energetic aud most respected citizens
Of the South originally went there fron
New England without dollar in their
pockets, and are also ''carpet- baggc-s."
Bat this attempt to get the genuine
carpet bagger" into good company by
dragging honorable and upright men
down to his level is too shallow trick
to deceive any one. When the men
Of the North emigrated to tie West
and South before the late war the .'car-

tae native journals, to shrink back from
the expulsion of two members, whom
the State looks upon as among her best
and most honest representatives,, and
whose chief misfortune lies in an ad-
ventitious inability to complete work
so we'll begun We do not doubt that
the men who are so blatant against
them can readily pardon failure in
this respect; and it is very pleasant
and self-exalting scene, for them to call
for verifcation CT the announcement
of their iniquity, when in their souls
they know that thcy have prevented
the laying bare Of the monstroas pccu-
lation, with which there is 30 doubt in
the mind of any man that their hands
have been stained
This lame shifting Of the guilt may
be source of amusement to them :;
but it no more serves to throw the
public mind off the trail Of the really
corrupt, than does the throwing hand
ful Of guano Into the air serve to dead
eu our nerves to the presence OF car

The true reconstruction plan has
not yet been fully appreciated. 1t
is shadowcd forth by those men who
tell us that when the Davises, Tombs,
Breckinridges, Early's and HamP-
tons of the South have died out, VIC
shall have a peaceful and prosperous
country. They simply mean that
when all the people who have warm
affection for the South, IS tho South,
shall have died or been pushed out
by the more cosmopolitan immigrants
we are receiving from New England,
and the same interests that rule along
the Connecticut and Kcnubec shall
elTectually prcdominate here, there
will then ben cause for conflict, and
the wheels Of government will glide
swcetly on guided by the hands of
the descendants of Messrs. French,
Harris, Latin and Mayo.
We have 10 doubt that, if this
problem of extrlIsion and intrusion
be worked out to their viii, and in &C
cord with their design, the country
will be thoroughly peaceful ana
prosperous" for them. And they
may rest assured, as we'll as all other
political mendicants who como beg
gin here, that until this consumation
10 achieved, thara will be 20 peace
Cor them, nor aGlliation with those
whom theirsgangrencd envy prompts
them to attempt the sneer at.
And when that day shall come,
that the spirit Of lofty devotion to
our distinctive land shall have died
out, which they SO much count on,
then indeed we Will deserve the fate
Of being hewers Of TIE wood and
drawers Of water for these men. And
they may see that epoch drawing
near, rhen they cease to hear them
selves spoken Of as they feel they
deserve, and their eyes are no long
er greeted, Oh taking UP paper that
expresses any Of the native sentiment
Of the land, by articles which tell
them such truths.
But we really wonder # there is q
single car2et-bagger who believes
shat Nr. Davis Or Mr. Tombs, or any
body else but himself, has anything
to do with the un:5holsom2

mon sense Of the public to suggest that
they stand in the same category with
the shltty knaves and prowlers who are
so aptily described as carpet baGgers
These latter are composed OF the un>
scrupulous creatures who were residing
in the South when the war broke out,
and who, having shouted Justly for the
Confederate cause for years, became
suddenly intensely loyal in presence OF
the Federal armies; and fthe jackalls
who travelled from the North IN the
wake Of those armies, As general
rule, they are people who never had
much character to boast of, and pro
vided they can obtain place and plun>
der, they are indifferent as to whether
they succeed by fair or fraudulent
means. They remain in the South
solely because ''loyaity" pays better
there than in the more rowded marx
ct of the North. Few Of them eacu-
late upon residing permanently in the
South, and many OF them are even still
legal voters in the Northern or Wes,
tern States. They have 10 sympa-
thies in common with the people of the
South, and are merely so many politi
cal wreckers. These are the people
who have nov crawlcd into power in
the Southern States. They have be-
come the rulers and the judges over
that whole section Of the land, and they
appear before Congressional Commit
tees to Insist, in the name of the Sou
thern people, that the best and abiest
men OF the white race shall still be Kept
dizfrauchised.- These are the s.ea who
are recognized as "carpct>baGSers,'
and nothing that the Radical papers
may say can relieve them from the
scorn and detestation in which they are
justly held by ali honest and fair mind
Cd people throughout the civilized
world"

j." Do YOU remember the history OF

"Do you remember the history OF
tho Greeks. where a first revolution,
not terminated, produced SO many
others during half a century"
Such were the words of Malonet,
the last of the defenders of the con-
stitut;onal power of the king in the
French Constitutional Assembly OF
l719; and the prophecy conveyed IN
these words was wofully fulfilled tor
III two years from that time the Streets
of Paris were rendered foul with the
blood Of her best, and the men who
had stirred the cess pool Of popular
feeling until the reeking odors that
arose became stiding, were riding to
the cuillotinc beside those who had
endeavorcd to moderate the storm
Were more instances needed, they
are not lacking and we need not go
so fs.r back as Ancient Greece and
Rome to end like cases giving like
results; for Mexico and the South
American States are near enough at
hand to give precept and example.
We have a habit Of attrfbutiuS tir7sU
latter parallels to an inherent dlspo-
sition On the part Of the people for
that style Of proceeding; bat here
We commit a grieyous error, tor
Spanish blood has nowhere exhibited
3 greater tendency to revolution than
did Roman blood after the death OF
Constantine, or the French after the
Revolution was thoroughly inaug'.ra-
ted. Are not these last still volcanic ?
has not Napoleon III straitcncd his
streets and catacombcd the entire
CITY Of Paris, that his six hundred
thousand guards may at once demol-
ish the reckless conspirators who may
first dare to mur;nur at the suppress
sion Of papers and confinement oi
editors who are bold enough to ex-
pose the venal;ty Of an official? And
is this to be end Of our revolution?
We cannot answer, but can only
wait in awful suspense. now fully con
scious that men in the mass are not
capable Of being warned and guided
by precedent and example, even as
terrible as the passing century has
given, and with instances Of which
all time is replete.
But III it all, We dim'y recognize
the inevitable truth, that social and
political life, like that Of dumb na-
ture, is directed by ali immens:ty OF
design, incomprehensible and un-
fathomablo, but working by as regu-
lar and undertaking laws, as those
that give light to the lily and breath
