lie assured, reader, that we are as good
Democrats as ever, albeit we are rather
quiet Of late days. We still stand upon the
ground We occupied pending the fall cam
pnign Of 'Gs.
On the 9th Of July last, In mass meet.
ing, The Democracy Of New Orl' ans passed
n series OF pats iotie resolutions. In the
fourth one We find our platform so well
laid down that We copy II here:
Resolved, That when Hancock,
who fought Lee through tho Will
dcrncss, and Franklin and McCler-
nand, and other brave and true sol.
diers Of the Union army, fraternisc
with and cordially take MS compat.
riots, in new struggle for a com.
mon constitution, such men as For.
rest and Wade Hampton, tho whole
country will look with contempt on
tho efforts Of the greedy Radicals,
who sec the danger that power may
slip ont of their hands, to stigma
tie the union Of honest men against
them rs an attempt to rcinstate the
war Of secession and rebellion.
Secession is dead, and slavery is
dead, beyond the power or wish of
any sane man anywhere to revive
either. The mission of the Demo-
cratic party is to bury the dead and
take up the living issues on which
the Radical party in this country is
to be tried, for rebellion against the
constitution, treason to the great
cause Of constitutional government,
and the slaughter of civil liberty.
II is not, however, "the mission of the
Democratic party of unreconstructed
Texas, just now, to stake up the living is
sues" ETC., though it was not wrong (but
fruiiless) in the late canvass. Taking
up issues, just now, is only to invite fur
Their aggressions and opressiOns, and while
tho existing regime exists, increase the
danger Of the PROSTATE man with the poi
son serpent coiled upon his bosom.
When the proper time comes, the DALLAS
HERALD will know how, when and where
to strike, politically.
For the nonce, we will be found aivoca-
ting any and every thing calculated to
hasten and insure the development of the
and inexhaus.ible resources of
a territory that we believe will. ere many
years, be one Of the riches, domains ON
he face Of earth.
