SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE II, 1869
Party Spirit.

Without regard to the general result,
some of the developments Of the late elcc-
ton arc curious enough and might be used
as illustrations in sermon on the doctrine
of total depravity. It's most alarming fea-
turc is merely an old cancer coming out in a
worse form than ever, and which, for any
remedy yet discovered, seems destined
finally to eat out the vitals of the Republic
We allnde Of course to the banc of party
spirit Had the late election been designed
merely to afford an illustration of thelcngth
to which men can be driven against their
honest convictions, and, too, against their
avowcd determination, by party discipline, it
could scarcely have been made more COM
plcte in any of its particulars. Whether it
were the better rule for the individual to
prefer his own convictions, or to submit
them entirely to the determination of his
party, is question which We do not pro-
pose to discuss. As matter of fact, it is
the rule with all parties that their members
must support their nominations. Of those
who believe in and follow this rule, we
have nothing to say nor do; We propose to
criticisc those who ncithcrbclcvc in nor fol-
low the rule But VIC consider it our duty
to haul those pious Radicals over the Goals,
who-aftcr going so far in theiropposition
to Mr.. Garfcldc on moral grounds as to
take an active part in the nomination of
his opponent by rlcdging their support
and influence, providing the. Democrats
should nominate Gov. Theoretically rent
back on every thing, as if to show a SHINING
world, that the obligations Of honor, truth,
and friendship, and all the ordinary dcccn-
cics between man and man are offerings
which the Christian patriot should cheer
fully make on the affairs of partisan success
The following scrap of history, is presented
as being just AS applicable as if it had been
written for these times. The reader can
apply it to either religious or political sccts,
or both, as he thinks fit: Whcna sect be-
comes powerful, when its favor is the road
to riches and digniticS, worldly and ambi-
tious men crowd into it, talk its language,
conform to its ritual, mimic its pcculiaritics,
and frequently go beyond its honest men,
bers in all the outward indications of zeal
No discernmcnt, no watchfulncss, on the
part ofecclcsiastca rulers, can prevent the
intrusion ofsuch false brethren. The tarcs
and the wheat must grow together. Soon
the world begins to find out that the godly
are not better than other men, and argues
with some justice that if not better, they
must be much worse. In no long time, all
those signs which were formerly regarded
as characteristics of saint arc regarded as
characteristics Of knave."

in some very unwarrantcd reflections upon
the character Of Mr.. Chas. II. Hubbs, the
accommodating telegraph orcratora at Van
couver, because his dispatch to the press
stated that the Fletcher affray was the re-
suit Of an old feud between the parties.
MIR. Hubs stated the plain truth, but the
truth did not suit Prosch's purposes, and
he bclabors an innocent man merely to
make capital for his party. 1t is proper
that money should be considered the root
of evil when it can make man descend
to the dirty work Prosch and Watson

Everywhere the Radical cmissares made
the most lavish expenditures, charging in
advance upon the Democracy: the corrup-
tons which they intended to practice.
From all parts ofthe county we now hear
of instances which should make every man
blush who regards the ballot-box as the
bullwark of liberty. But few such vie
tories will leave but little to be contcndel
for at the polls. The instances are too re-
voting to be chroniclcd. 1t is enough
and too much to know, that men were
brought and sold like cattle. The few who
are ambitious of Office and power perhaps
can afford to dosuch things. But we ask =,
can the people, the masses of the domi-
