Tho following is the platform of the
Ipperiqlist Published at New York :s
Though unannounced, this journal Is
not unexpected. 1t is tho open OK
prcssions Of opinions long held and
cherished BY thousands of intelligent
men and women, in all parts of tho
country, who will hail its advent as tho
beginning of now era in tho political
history Of America.
"Thsaalptfosm of the Impcriallst Is
rec i6hary; its object Is to prepare
the American people for revolution
that issas desirable as it is inevitable. Il
I. "We believe Democracy to be fail
urc. Though Theoretically plausible, in
its practical workings it has been found
totally inadequate TO tho wants Of tho
American people. As
"We believe tho national faith, if
left in the keeping of tho populacc, will
be sullied by the sure population of the
national debt; and that an Imperial
Government can alone secure and pro-
tect the rights of national creditors.
eve believe that an Imperial Gov
eminent, in its patcrnal relation to the
people, will care equally for all citizens,
and, while guaranteeing security to tho
rights of capital, will jealously protect
the interests of the industrial classes.
eve believe, in short, that Democ-
racy means lawlcssncss, corruption, in
security to person and property, rob
berry of the public creditors and civil
war that the Empire meats law, order,
security, public faith and peace.
"This creed the Imporialist will adj
vocate, earnestly, fcarlcssly and without
compromise; thereby expressing tho
honest convictions not only of those who
to its columns, but of an in
tclligent and powerful constituency. In
the discussion of political and social
questions now agitating the mind of the
American people, the Imperialist will
unite tho high tone and thorough cul-
ture of the standard British weekly
press, with tho lighter and moro popu-
lar features of the best current litcra-
turc Of tho day, and its columns will be
free from the low and commonplace vul
garisms that have heretofore disgracod
American journalism"

SENATORIAL CORRUPTION.

Senator Spraguc said recently in the
Senate ''that he knew a legislator, a
member of committee, who had boon
askodto report upon o certain matter,
and tho temptation held out before him
was one hundred thousand dollars. -
But, says an exchange, Senator Sprague
"dd not tell the whole truth, for that
same legislator did report in the way
desired, and the presumption is the
money was paid. Let Mr.. Durant, Of
Pacific Railroad notOriety, be put upon
tho stand, and compelled to tell all that
he knows in regard to tho integrity of
certain Radical Senators and Ropresen-.
tativcs and he will tale unfold that viii
disclose very much more than Spraguo
even is willing to tell. When the list of
the stockholders Of tho Pacific Railroad
comes to SOC the light, it will astonish
the country how many members of Con-
gross held an interest in that concern"

And think how gladdened the royal boy:

How full the nations his sorrow heed.

They have begged few rage OF black.

They hate the sunbeam that plays on the door.
But makes the baby laugh out no more:
