gave him leading position upon the
Judiciary Committee composed OF
such leading men rs Bingham, Bat

Always soaad and true upon the
issues, Judge Longllri.ige has the
conti lence OF his Republican associ

him some two years aya willie on a
summer visit to the Granite State,
in company with another brilliant
and able Western Rep escntative,
Hon. Thomas White Ferry. Of Mich

basis. The attempt 70 pay of the
na,iona. debt, both principal and in
terest, without said principal bein.
! due, by onurous taxation, is heavily
tolt by the people. The fact that our
receipts for months has exceeded our
cypendi lures in large amounts, is 4
matter ior reflection; and the question
comes up whether moderate pay
ment of the debt would not be bet
ter, and instead OF having surplus
III the treasury, 10 throw that amount
IN the channels OF III Iu>try and trade,
that the people may lave the benefit

The people just couvaIescins from
the exhaustion of the war would re.
crivc new lite and activity, and y
moro general prosperity would unev-
itabTy follow.
tbs is one thing that The people
demand, and the west universally
!avors the idea. At the present rate,
the government will have 4 surplus
OF sl20, 900, 900, or near that. whicl,
at this period tries our industry and
trade.
The congressman who !avors the
abatement OF $50, 900, 600 taxation as
soon IS possible, is the man Tor the
hour; and he who will not faithfully
and honestly labor for this, should
give place 70 the man who will. This
question, with others, viii govern the
decision Of many electors OF the par
ty III the coming contest, and cohe-
siyencsS will he maintained ana The
party strengthened, both in and out OF
Congress, by the election of repre-
sentative man who understands. and
Will support the views Of the people.

We recently visited their settlement,

In good order. Those who were ac.

What the People Want.

The animated contest now going
on between tie aspirants for Cou
sress. in the Fourth Congressional
District, leads the casual observer TO !
a moments reflection.
The TRADE OF personal abuse so
plentltully bestowed upon the linen
asking tor support from their consti-
tuency, is entirely wrong as party
element, and does not satisfy the
minds Of the people. The gentle
men who arc before the people ave
men Of acknowledged public repn,y-
tlou aud ability, and all the anatle-
mas heaped upon them, will not meet
the question. The cohesivencss OF
| the party, and not the name alone,
will be sustained, only by conccn-
traitor Of views upon the charter
principles Of the party OF progress
and freedom, assisted by the indivil
ual who, without political stain or
blemish, increasingly and indetau-
gably works, or has worked for the
Iarty. The ratification of the Fit
,centii Amendment has not settled
Tie question Of the province OF the
nepuL.ican Party. Other questions
OF momentous import, hedge them
selves around the statcsmxn and
with these questions orr congress-.
men will have to deal, when sent to
represent the people. What then do
the people desire from the mon who
ask their suffrage? Ono thing at
least is required, and that is, that
Congress and not Secretary Boutwell,
almisister the affairs OF orr Revenue.
Our country is enjoying profound
peace but the people feel buriencd.
WIKI blood and treasure they have
fully consa,u.,atcl an unparalleled
struggle. The nation to-day is rich
in patriotism aud wealth. Tie chan
ncls Of industry and trade, should,
