For 'sThe DemoeraticyPress,,
MANTUA CORREsPOSDENCE.

AT the present time when the press
ing labors of the season, give the
working man little time to devote
much thought to the political affairs
of the day, why is it, that the deep
and earnest thinkers, those who watch
the political horizon most faithfully,
as they meet each other, so often pro-
pound the question, "Whither are we
tending ?" Will our good ship of
State frei9hted with the liberties of
millions, ride in safety, through the
dangers that now Surround her, and
reach a harbor of peace and prosper
ity? Under the present aspect of af-
fairs, it is evident that their fears are
not utterly groundless or their appre-
tensions that a fearful wreck is it's
destiny, if those who control its course
do not change its direction, or relin-
quish its management. The danger
does not lie in the hidden and unseen
rocks that wreck so many noble
ship, but in the smoothly gliding cur-
rent that bears it along, which, by i'm
perceptible degrees, is gradually in
creasing in downward course, until,
before long. no human aid, can avail.
to prevent a fatal plunge over the cat
aract, into the gloomy abyss below
Unless the American people arouse
themselves to avert the threatened
danger, the chains of military. des
potism which are now being thrown
around them will be riveted so fast,
that only through seas of blood can
they again be entitled to the name OF
free people. The imbecility and
dishonesty Of our present pilots, musi
be apparent to all, who are conversant
with the history of the past, and who
watch the present, with the anxious
eye of true and patriotic lover of his
country. Those who now stand at the
helm, appear tosbe goyerned.enk by
one Unsuitable greed for place and
power, and the emoluments of Office
whereby they can enrich themselves
and their posterity, and establish 8
class, whose interest shall be distinct
from that of the toiling workers
whose labors and earnings they intend
to appropriate, and whose votes they
wish to secure to assist in their eleva
ton above the unthinking masses
Wicked men, whose only recommen
dations, are Willingness to sell them
selves and yield implicit obedience tc
corrupt and dishonest party leaders
are appointed to offices of trust ant
responsibility, which could be filled
/ by competent and faithful officers
while new offices are created to salts
fly the unceasing clam lrs of the greedy
and disappointed aspirants for plum
der, who now swarm like. leeches al
over our land. The profits and steal
ings of an Office, offer the readiest op
portunity for the accumulation o
4 wealth, for it is well known, that il
the past few years, men, comparative
ly poor, have become suddenly trich
and worth millions, by the simple pro
cess of selling themselves, in a cor
rupt political market, and also secur
