Party Changes.

The Republican party, notwithstanding the weak boasts of the ultra Radical papers, is seeking Democratic ground as the only hope to perpetuate its power
 Schenck, the great leader, is defeated in Ohio, by Lewis D. Campbell, more on account of his high protective duty principles than for anything else. The Illinois Republican platform advocates free trade, return to spe- cie payments, reduced taxation and the grad ual payment of the public debt. John Logan, candidate for Congress at large, in Illinois, is on the stump for these sound Democratic ideas. The Republican party exist, only in name The remnant of power they retain in Congress, is obtained under false pretenses. Tn Missouri, Gratz Brown, who is liberal Republican, advocates the old Democratic ideas, and, in addition, the unconditional en- franchisement of the late so-called rebels, return to national views, and that policy, which before the civil war, made our country so great and powerful The Democracy sup port Gratz Brown in the spirit of an honest love of country, and in the real desire to realize Grants mockery of Let us have peace" There is scarcely a rational doubt that the Democratic party will carry the next Presidential election. With wise nomina- ton, the thousands who by force of sectional war have been eiassed AS Republicans, will gladly rally under the banner of the glorious old party, whose roots are in the hearts of the people.

Now Anecdote of Gen. Andrew Jackson.

The following anecdote of General Jackson VIC do not remember to have seen in print, and as everything pertaining to the memory of the old hero is the property of the Amer ican people. VIC gladly publish it.
 At a great Democratic meeting held at Prescott, November 9th. Sylvester Mowry spoke of the relations of national politics to the Territories, and made an effective appeal Co the Democracy to be united In closing his speech, MT. Mowry said Do you want to know how Brady the Democratic cand- date for Congress ), cannot help being true Democrat and an honest man. l will tell you Brady's father was one of General Jackson's most intimate friends, and was one of his earliest appointments to office. Thc night before he sent his famous message to Congress, destroying the old United States Bank, President Jackson sent for Brady and said, Brady can you keep secret V "l think 50, General, ,'-" and think so, too; sit down and copy this message of mine to Con grcss am afraid to trust it to Donclsop, "A. ! Donelson, his private Secretary, he Is too intimate with these newspaper men and they would get 1t out of him." said the President. Mir. Brady copied the message, and the General said "Yil you sleep here, or can trust you to go home2" (" think you can trust nc, General, said Brady, who went home to pass a slecpless night. His brother had Slo,OOO in [. & Bank notes, and one word would have saved saved him, but Brady did not say the word. Jackson's mes sage went in to Congress known to no human being except himself and Brady.
 During Jackson's administration, Mir. Bra dy, his wife, and my friend, your candidate for Congress, then a boy, had frequent and familiar intercourse with the Presidents household On the expiration of Jackson's term of office Mt. and Mrs Brady and the boy, went to the White House to pay fare well visit. The old hero took the pipe he was smoking from his mouth, and gave 1t to Brady as parting gih. The pipe was be- queathcd in his will to his son, and Jackson placed his hand upon that sons head, and blessed him. That blessing could not fail or be lost, and that is why your candidate can not help being true Democrat and an honest man.
 Our readers who were present, will not soon forget the long continued cheering which followed this anecdote and its application.

D. Henderson and the Miner

lu oul issue of October 22l, we stated. upon authority oi D. Henderson. qS llis place fa Mccormick man), that the feeling against hr. Mccormick, at Phunix, Salt River. and at SAcaton on the Gi.a, w4s bitter. and that in consequence Of said feeling, tlose people would vote against 3Ir AcConnick. This. Mir. Henderson related to US one evening. in our office, without showing the least symp- tom of desire npon his part that it should not appear in print. But, ve p7esua.c, some Of McCornick's priests twittei him about it, and he immediately indi,ed a note 70 McConnick's Tucson organ, which was published under the head, "The MINERS MisrepTesen;ations." Now, the writer of the note knew that he eould not sustain his de- nial by facts, so he starts oif with tue follow ing quibbling sentence:
 ' I never told the MINER that similar 'ssling existed among tho people of Florence. ard indeed, among sll the people on the Clla.n
 And the MiSIR never sad y.u did. What it did say, is this.
 ID. Henderson, merchant ui this place, has been visiting the settlements of Phoenix and Florence, and returned here short time ago. well pleased with what he had seen. AIthouyh iavoriug the election of BIT. iicCormiek he Adds hi8 testimony 10 that of Mr. Stephens.

Thompson, were. to a man. down upon Mccormick
 The MINER then went oa, stated why theso people opposed McCormick; and asser. ted upon its own account, knowledge and belief, that similar feeling existed among the people of Florence, and, indeed, among all the people on the Gils river, SO that D. Henderson's assertion that tho MIyrR "placed hiin in false position" and that Al. (tlic MrSER's) mind must have been niuddled. g applies with more force and greater truth to HF. D.

One of the incidents of election day worth noticing, was the complete back-down d His EHceIleney, Governor Sagord, late of Nevada, and 10 which lovely region and to the bosom of Jim Nye or Bill Stewart, he has our per mission, and that of the people of Arizona, irrespective of party, to at once return. Early in the morning, the Governor was es- tablished near the polls, pcddling tickets Democratic tickets BFady's name scratched out, and McCormick's inserted in hs own handwriting. Mr Mowry with few friends, walked up to Stafford, and said, E. Gov. eenor, you and your organ have said that l am not citizen of Arizona, md have no vote in the Territory" "I am going to the poll, tO yote--i dare you to come and challenge it.' The Governor was little flustered. but still, with admirable Impotence, said "Oh I'll be there, or send some ohe.'' Send , man then" said Mowry. About noon, when the crowd was the largest, Mr. Mowry wen, with one friend, to vote. To the credit oi our Radical friends, be it said, that several came forward and offered to swear in his vote '' Thanks, gentlemen, sad NowTy, I fancy my vote is good "What name said the Judge laughing "Sylvester Mowry." No chal loase. A tall, gaunt McCormickite said Why that is the vote Governor Saffort promised me to challenge" |" He hasn't go the sand,' said Mowry, and walked quietl, away. saluted cordially bv the crowd. especi ally by the Republicans.

Cook was unani- n1n-ly elected Chairman. and in few appro- rliate sentences. introduced r. R. Brady.
 M-. Br.ly spoke nearly an hour, with good uo.nt and ,i-or, declaring that he had made and would make no pledges to cliques or individuals: that if elected, he would serve ,he whole Territory to the best oi his ability, i-respcctiyc of section.

Bri- ds's speech. he was frequently applauded, and Sd. down amid great cheering, having proved conciu,ively that his opponent, Me Cormick. had added one more t1 his long list of lies. when he said Brady could not speak, and Lad To have a mouth piece.
 The next speaker loudly called for by the audience was Sylvester Mowry. His speech touched on MeCo'Inirk's laithles sne>- to the whites Of the Territory. especially in refer ence Co the Southern Pacific Railroad; hts corrupt coadnct in receiving bribes to pro cure contracts, and upon the relation of Ma tioral politics. as applied 10 the Territories and hi, appeal to all true Democrats to rally to tle support of Brady, were listened to with great attention and applause The an ecdote we quote n another column from MT.

 We hare no space to make extended quo tations from the difi, rent speeches although wo took fall notes, but it is only just to say that that portion of his speech where MT Nowry said, '' If it is true that the blood of tho Martyrs i- the seed of the church, then it Is also true that the blood of the pioneer is the seed of the State," and impressed the duty this truth placed upon the people of Arizona to 90 form their institutions and laws as 10 make Arizona State based upon safe and sure founiatioti,' he made pro found impression and awakened ah echo in the hearts of all present
 The meeting adjourned with loud and re Peated cheers for Brady. The Prescott Bras, Band was in uttcndance and discoursed most czcelleht music playing many popular airS which were fully appreciated by the crowd present. There is but one opinion Of the meeting, that it was thoroughly enthusiast, from beginning to end, great contrast tc McCormick's, both in number, and spirit.

then uttered in this part of the island with
contempt. The ablest Scotch statesman
contemplated the degraded state of their
poorer countrymen with feeling approach
ing to despair. 1t is well known that
Fletcher of Saltoun, brave and accom-
plished man, a man who had drawn his
sword for liberty, who had suffered pro-
scription and exile for Liberty, was so much
Disguised and dismayed by the misery, the
Ignorance, the idleness, the lawlessness OF
the common people, that he proposed to
make. many thousands tof them slaves.
Nothing, he thought, but the discipline
which kept order and enforced exertion
among the negroes OF a sugar colony, moth
ing but the lash and the stocks, could re-
claim the vagaboncs Who infested every
part OF Scotland from their ind0lent and
predatory habits, and compel them to sup
port themselves by steady labor. He
therefore, soon after the Revolution, pub
lished q pamphlet, in which he earnestly,
and, az l believe, from the mere impulse OF
humanity and patriotism, recommended
to the Estates of the Realm this sharp rem.
edy, which alone, as he conceived, could
remove the evil. Within few months
after the publication of that pamphlet a
very different remedy was applied. The
Parliamentlwhich safe at Edinburgh pass
ed an act for the establishment of paroch-
ial schools What followed? An improve
ment such as the world had never seen,
took place in the moral and intellectual
character of the people. Soon, in spite of
the rigor of the climate in spite of the
sterility of the earth, Scotland became a
country which had no reason to envy the
| fairest portions of the globe. Wherever
| the Scotehman went-and there were few
parts of the world to which he did not 30
he carried his superiority with him. II
he was admitted into a public office, he
worked his way up to the highest post. If
he got employment in a brewery or fac
a shop, his trade was the best in the street.
If he enlisted in the army, he became a
color-sergeant. If he went to colony, he
