CONNECTICUT DEMOCRACY.

The last address of the Democratic
State Committee contains the follow.
ing truthful arraignmcnt Of the Aboli.
ton party:
We arrign the Republican party for
its war upon the government, for its
arbitrary and despotic acts in violation
OF the Constitution, by virtue of which
the government exists.
For long train OF abuses and usur-
pations, pursuing invariably the same
obJect--the subversion of popular GOV.
ernmentand the centralization of pow
er, 70 perpetuate party assendancy
For placing large portion of the
people under absolute despotism
For refusing many States the right
OF representation which is guaranteed
by the Constitution-a right inestima-
BILE to the people, and formidable TO
| tsrants only;
For dissolving Legislative bodies re-
peatedly by the sword, as in the case
OF Georgia and other States;
For assembling Legislatures by mil
itary decree, of men not chosen by the
people, and who do not represent
them surrounding assemblies by
armed men, compelling them to adopt
acts for changing the government Of
the United States, as well as the Con-
stitution of the States;
For obstructing the laws Of natur-
allzation, and violating their own pub
iic acts by the registration of negroes:
For degrading the judiciary and
making an Independent branch of the
government dependent and subservi-
ent to partizan dictation;
For erecting multitude Of new Of
hces, and sending out swarrns of off
GERS and tax gatherers to harrass the
people and eat out their substance
For levying an internal revenue tax
without regard TO representation, and
III, violation Of the spirit of the Consti-
tuition, by which seven and a half mil
hons OF dollars annually are taken
from Connecticut, and three and a
half millions III excess of her propor-
ton
For rendering the military indepen-
dent of, and superior to, the civil
power;
For subjecting States to iurisdic-
ton foreign to their Constitutions. and
unacknowledged by their laws; and
for quartering large bodies of armed
troops upon their people;
For depriying them, in many cases,
of trial, by jury;
For taking away charters, abol-
ishing most valuable laws, and alter
ing, fundamentally, the form of our
government;
For suspending Legislatures, and
declaring Congress invested with pow
or to legisiate for the people of State
in all cases whatsoever.
A party whose character is thus
marked by every act which may define
a tyrant, is unfit to manage the gov
ernment of free peole, and it should
not be encouraged by then votes.-
Ever vote given for the candidates of
the Republican party this spring,
tends to approve of and confirm arbi-
trary acts; and to encourage the ex-
treme Radical leaders to still further
deeds of aggression.

GREELEY AND HIS VISITORS

The New York correspondent of the
Philadelphia Telegraph tells this story
illustrating Mr.. Greeley's impertura-
BILE manner with bores
Mr.. Greeley, like other distinguish
ed men, is bored with visitors of whom
it is not always easy to get rid. Among
them, one day, was man-an "c,.,i,
subscriber, probak,,j;, Tor it is gcner-
ally Jour Old subscriber, like an old
friend, who takes the liberty Of saying
disegreeable things-who has some
grudge against Horace on account Of
something that had been said in the
Tribune. So without standing quite
within or entirely without the sanctum,
but remaining perched upon the
threshold, he commenced TRADE OF
some twenty minutes length, to which
MIR. Greeley, writing spiders webs on
the foolscap before him, vouchsafed
no reply.
you've been carrying on this game
long time" said the subscriber at
length in desperation, "but I've found
you out.
"I'd rather you'd found me out than
found me at home" answered the cal
ligraphic sage.
GIVE been talking to you all this
while just to tell you what | think OF
you" pursued the angry visitor.
you've been q devilish long time
doing it,, replied Greeley.
"And I've just come to say that you
are no gentleman, added the subscri-
Der, sure now that he had hit the mark
"Who the HI said L WASP" re-
marked Greeley, going on with his
writing.
The subscriber bolted, and was nev-
er seen in that Office again, and Gree
ley finished the article as quietly as
though nothing had happened.

A Niger Judge in Alabama, when his
first case came on aud everything was

a dollar piece, and you must pay it be-
fore dc case goes on"

HARD ON THE BAcHELoRs.-The
efforts made by the st. Louis and
other Western cities to mitigate
the effects of the so-called "social
evil have reused the competitive
energies of Cincinnati in the same
direction. That great capital Of
porkdom seems disposed to Ego
the whole hog" and try to reach
the base of the matter with q
trenchant hand. 1t imagines that
by roofing bachelorhood out of
the land the whole horrible system
it seeks to wipe out will at once be
eradicated. There may possibly
be differences Of opinion as to this
conclusion, but Cincinnati can on
ly act according to her lights
where there are so many impure
livcrs to deal with. 1t is therefore
seriously proposed to levy a tax
equal to one fourth their whole in
come Of all male celibates within
the State. The agent which this
new class of legal offenders shall
be prosecuted is not mentioned in
the paper before us, nor does it
much matter. Divorce is cheap
there, and a semi. compulsory mar
rage followed by q voluntary dis
annexation by process of law will
clearly effect the enactment and
leave the party Of the male part a
financial gamer. 1t is evident
that abl e-bodied widowers and di.
vorced men will require to be in.
cluded to give the scheme any
chance of a successful working,

tains a letter from Secretary of the
Treasury Boutwell,, in answer TO a
resolution of Congress, directing
him to furnish that body with a
statement of the balances due from
Collectors of Internal Revenue,
not now in office, which is unan-
swerable as setting forth in glaring
colors the corruption Of the Radical
party. In that letter Mr.. Boutwell,
gives eight solid pages Of the names
Of three hundred and forty defaul-
teFs!
There is within a fraction Of six
million dollars of taxes gobbled up
by ten iefaulters, not one of whom
has been prosecuted, or ordered to

hundred and forty defalcatiOns,

.ssss, "Ws.,,

Not only IN the study Of "little
things" interesting and instructive,
but that of common things and
words 10 common use, even Of the
most humble and mental applica-
tlOn, is 90 too. For example, the
syllables zee" and "WO," which
farmers, carmen, and others are in
the habit Of addressing to their
horses, are not destitute Of historic
cal aud fundamental meanings.
Now the word ICE" seems 10 be
the imperative geh Of the German
verb geten, to go. In Lancashire,
Yorkshire, and other northern parts
of England, the term ICE" is still
used as a conversational word.
Thus, if things do not suit each
other, or neighbors do not agree,
the expression Is "They do not 'ge'
we'll together"
The term "Wo" was anciently
applied to knights and combatants
In armor. The word lie simply a
q broad pronunciation of the Dan
ish Word Ho, commanding cessa-
ton or desistance. At tills and
tournaments, when the King or
President of the combat gave the
signal for discontinuance by throw
ing down his warden or baton, the
heralds shouted Ho!-that Is stop.
The French have added la, aud
used the compound lola oil stop
there, in combats, and which we
have adopted in common language.
when We call HdliOo! for q person
to stop. The wort, in its nearly
uncOrrupt state, still exists in nau'
teal language. Thus, when ont
ship halls another, the words arr
