The Countess &c N4rrlde-the ialrest

DEMOCRATIC ECONOMY.

Democratic economy" is well ex-
emplifed in the recent history OF
Kentucky. The Louisville Com
mercial states that when the Dem
ocracy came into power in that state,
four years ago, there was surplus
of twenty-five thousand dollars in
the Treasury, and that now there is
a deficiency of over one million dol
lars; while the Democratic Auditor
of state announces the fact that the
State government cannot be carried
on without an increase of taxes.
Comment unnecessary, only to OBJ
serve that Democracy, so far as
economy" is concerned, is the same
everywhere that it is entrusted with
power. If, then, the Democracy
cannot run a State government even,
without Increasing the taxes, why
keep up such bowling about the
present administration of the gov
ern ment which is continually de
creasing the amount of taxation?

HON. M. WEIkER.

The following resolution, compli.
mentary of Judge Welker, was
adopted by the Republican Con
gressional Convention that met at
West Salem on the oath ult.
RESOLVED, That having for six
years confided the interests of the
people of this District in the Ma
tional Legislature, to Hon. Martin
Welker and having fully considered
the manner in which he has dis
charged that important trust, in
times of great national peril, we
most heartily indorse him as an
honest and able public servant.
Judge Welker's faithfulness to
his constituency merits every word
of the resolution. For six years he
has represented the Fourteenth Dis
trict in Congress, honestly, ably,
efficiently. He will retire from Con
gress with reputation unblem-
ished. No man would be bold en-
ough to venture the assertion that
he ever accepted bribe or made
one dollar dishonesty.
Judge Welker was not q candi-
date for denomination, and he will
retire from the congressional field
with the best wishes of the district.

WORK ORGANIZE !!

All the Republicans should be up
and doing, for the fall canvass will
involve the highest interest of the
State and nation. 1t is of the first
consequence to select the ablest and
best men for nomination in all cases
and leave no room for chances.
The party, strong in its records
and its principles, will be stronger
by selecting none but its best and
most trustworthy men. 1t is no
time for divisions on mere local
questions. We have to meet an
enemy full of devices and little
tricks, and never slow to avail itself
of any element of division, however
small in itself, to work mischief to
the general cause. The canvass will
be an important one in every sense,
and Republicans should take early
steps to organize thoroughly for
victory. 1t is the full and complete
vote that tells the story.

Why Every German Should Vote the Re.
publican Ticket.

Here are few reasons why every
German should vote the Republican
ticket:
L. Because the Republican party
is the only real democratic party in
this country.
2. Because the Republican party
has secured by treaty the release of
all German citizens from their for
mer allegiance, and has pledged the
whole power of the Government for
their protection wherever our flag
floats, whether in this country or
any other.
3. Because the Republican party
is the only organization in this
country pledged to maintain the
freedom of all citizens, without dis
tinction of race or nationally.
4. Because the Republican party
by its councils and by four years
fighting, shoulder to shoulder with
thousands of patriotic naturalized
citizens preserved the Republic, and
secured its continuance as refuge
for the oppressed of all lands for
ever.
.. Because the Republican party
removed the obloquy which rested
upon all labor in the South because
of slavery, and opened that part Of
our country to the self-respecting in
dustry of all lands.
6. And finally, not to go into de
tail further as to the hundreds of rea.
sons that might be urged, because
the Republican party is the party Of
liberty, and progress, the friend Of
order, and the security of every mans
rights.

ON BOTH SIDES,

The Chicago Democracy have
struck the happy medium on the
present war question by enlisting on
both sides. One resolution congrat-
ulates the French, and the next res
olution congratulates the Germans.
That must be what is called sympa-
thetic neutrality. The Immortal
j. N" could see in our war that the
North and South were both right and
both wrong, but Chicago Democracy
have made aprofound discovery, and
declare the French right and the
Germans right.

CONDENSED WAR NEWS.

The dispatches of Monday night
and Tuesday forenoon bring moth
ing new as to the situation of the
troops around Paris, except the
cutting of the Paris and Havre
Railroad at CONTAINS, about fourteen
miles northwest of Paris. Railway
communication is now completely
severed. ...-rt
A correspondent processes to
give the intended movements of the
Prussian force to the south of Paris.
Having crossed the Seine about
eight miles from the Notifications,
as We have already noted, they are
to press forward to Versailles, and
from that point to work their way
under cover of the woods of Meudon
to the heights of Clamart, where
batteries are to be erected. From
this point, should the city be bonn
barded, fire will be directed upon the
quarter of Vaugirard, and it is ex-
pected that the fire will reach as far
as the Boulevards D'Enfer and Mont
Parnasse. The distance of these
boGlevards from the heights of
Clamart in a straight line is about
four miles. The batteries would be
but little over half a mile from Fort
D'Issy, in the direct line of fire in
dicated by this programme. Be-
tween Fort D'Issy, and the strong
work of Fort Mont Valerian the
west side of Paris wholly unpro-
tected save by the strong natural
defences of the Seine, the Bois de
Boulogne, and the walls. The dis
tance between these forts, in direct
line of fire is a little over four miles.
We give the programme for just
