OLD FOGIE5 AsTONISHED,

II the United States government, rs at
present administered, hunts up and turns
out of Office a defaulter, the Picayune at
once seizes on the fact to publish it as an
evidence of Republican dishonesty. The
Baltimore American is the great source of
information on this important subject.
and the Picoyunei is only copyist in this
as in most Of its other departments. Now,
if the Republicans hunt up scoundrel
and turn him out, why should they be
saddled with his rascahty. The police are
notaccused of theft because they arrest a
thief, and men are not classified as drunk
ards when they denounce whisky drink
ing. 1t seems to us that the Republicans
ought to be credited with faithful and
honest regard for their duties when they
detect and punish the defaulters in their
own party. It is not Democratic Gus
tom, it IS true, but it is good one, and
we can not afford to stop it. Perhaps the
novelty Of the thing is what astonishes
the old fogies in the American and Plea
y1ne Offices. They are not used to seeing
party purge ITSELF and the sight of a
little political honesty hurts their feelings.
Nevertheless, it must continue.

WEAKNESS Or MUD.

1t is difficult to determine whether the
Democracy is more like a crawfsh, which
always runs backwards, or a man who
walks on such slippery ground that when
he takes step in advance he falls back
two. It comes up brayely and swallows
Brown, and promises him and his race
everything that the law gives them. In
the very next breath it declares that the
law gives them nothing. To-day it elects
the negro to a convention, and tomorrow
it pays him to stop away. To-day it de-
clares that the amendments are accepted,
and tomorrow it denies the validity Of
everything that has been done. 1t
breaches peace one week and chaos the
next. 1t processes iberaity and bites off
Its tongue for making the profession. It
claims to be the best friend of all men,
and then it fires shot at the negroes.
1t is forever running backwards after be-
ing pulled to the front. It makes step
toward concedng freedom to-day, and
tomorrow. it apologies and goes
back further than it advanced And
what it does is done in some such spirit

CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS.

The elections this fail in the various
States of the Union for members Of
Congress are all-important, because the
result will be regarded as a popular ex-
preston for or against the principles and
measures of the party in power. The
Democratic party has not fully aban-
doned the hope Of realizing success by!
combating the principles engrafted byI
the Republican party in the constitution
of the United States; principles that
secure equal civil and political rights to
all men, regardless of color or previous
condition ; principles that secure a re-
publican form of government for each
State, and crown and fortify each either!
with the right to vote; principles that
maintain the integrity of the country and
deny the right of State to dissolve the
Union whenever it may choose to with
draw from it.
These principles faithfully adhered I'd
Will establish union and liberty through

was the war-cry of the nations defenders

guns upon Fort Sumter, 50 it has been
the rallying cry of the people, whenever

this banner Lincoln va, reelected in
1854, and in 1868 General Grant wax

course of reconstruction that would
firmly cement the bond, Of union
and liberty in this country. In
all the Congressional elections since
1860 the people of the States have
steadily maintained Republican MAORI
ties in both houses of Congress sufficient
to meet and defeat the opponents of true
Republicanism. When Mr.. johnson b.
came President and manifested signs Of
disaffection to the Republican party, the

Since the Prussians we're so badly re-

several days ago, and since by that re-
pulse, which was inflicted on the Crown
Prince, the road was opened to Tours,
why do we not get some reliable news

Secretary Boutwell, has issued instructions
to the various bureau chiefs of his depart
ment that the estimates of expenditures for
the next fiscal year should be made in ac-
cordance with the laws and not in anv case
to exceed the amount appropriated by Con-
yress. Estimates for the deficiency must be
made with great care. In this regard no
estimate for any increase Of salary may be
included in tho regular book of estimates,
but all such estimates must be submitted in

A Boston firm is writing letters to St.
Louis, says the Republican, of that city, to
ascertain if corn can not be shipped from
that port to Boston, via New Orleans
This is remarkable instance of ignorance
in Boston, or else it shows that Western
papers have a very limited circulation at
the Hub. The rival cities of the Missis-
sippi valley have been devoting their
highest energies to prove by precept and
practice, by theory and example, that the
only sensible way to ship grain from st.
Louis to the eastern seaboard cities was
by way Of New Orleans, and now here
comes a Boston fellow. and wants to
know if it can be done. It is highly
probable that he is no Boston man.

The Democrat is just now seriously dis

any such claim, perhaps guilty con-

Democrat.

Galveston has at last caught bite of
the evil she has been inflicting on us. No
sooner did case Of yellow fever occur in
New Orleans than Galveston shut her
doors and forbade her people, and all
Texas besides, to have anything to do
with us. 1t was savage blow at many
interests, but Galveston stuck to it, grim
ly satisfied with the result. Now, how
ever, she has had case of yellow fever,
and Houston guarantees her, and when
she asks for modification of the decree,
Houston answers her as she answered us.
Now she says that Houston maintains her
quarantine because she is anxious to sell
her goods As she finds this reason so
handy, may it not be possible that it was
her own property, and that what sug-
gusted the quarantine against New Or
leans was Galveston wanted to sell her
goods?

Some months since Secretary Boutwell,
issued an order-which is still in force, and
which he says shall remain in force-that
all interest on the public debt will be paid
sixty days in advance of the date upon
which it is due, with rebate Of the interest
at the rate of six per cent. That is, if a
person is entitled to three dollars interest
he must rebate the interest of sixty days on
this three dollars at the rate Of six per cent
per annum.

CHARGES AGAINST THE REPUBLICAN,
PARTY,

| The National Democratic Executive
Committee, recently holding forth in
Washington City, has covered itself with
distinction for logical acumen and accu-
racy of statement. Like most other ad-
vocates of the opposition side of the polit-
ical questions Of the day, it can find little
or nothing to say in favor of the Demo
crazy, and in lieu of this, palades charges
against the Republican party But the
charges do not hadg together very we'll.
They look to us as though they had been
written by different persons, neither of
whom knew what the other was saying.
Hence. they don't agree, either with the
facts Of history, or with each other. We
select at random three of these charges, as
follows:
First--We are taxed $40 % per capita, Is
against g. per capita in 1860.
Second--lnstead Of having funded the
debt at lower rate Of interest, the bonds
are not even printed, and the six per cent
bonds are still under par in Europe.
Sixth-The gold which our people so
much need at home is shipped to Europe to
bay bonds at u premium which are not due
Cor fourteen years.
In reply to the FIRST charge, that the
people are now taxed $40 90 per capita in
1870, against So per capita in 1850, we
