strength of Democracy lies in its method of
counting votes; and another worthy member

braggarts next month that even this fraud will
no longer serve their purpose.

Meanly as 1871 appears In contrast with the
other years, it is on paper only that it looks
even so well. The unsettled claims, payment
of which has been deferred until after cleo
ton through fear of the people, would more
than absorb the trifling and fictitious surplus
of $4,000, and reveal the scandalous truth
that this audacious and corrupt Canal Board
has already sQuandered, under cover of costs
OF collection and repairs more than the gross
receipts The falling off in the receipts is
serious enough, but in the surplus it is
is astounding-S54,OOO, and that fraudulent
pretense, against more than $1,540,G00 the very
year before 1t has been stated that this
falling off is accounted for by the reduction in
tolls. This clearly explains it; but at
the same time what does it prove? The
Republican Canal authorities had steadily re-
fused to adopt this measure, because, aside
from other reasons, repeated experiments had
shown IL TO be unwise and the solitary Re
publican Canal officer whom the Democratic
Board failed TO displace demonstrated against
it to the last and warned them that it would
be followed by such bad consequences. Those
who offer this plea now, then maintained that
II would so increase the tunnage and business
OF the Canals that soon the lower rates would
yield the greater income. The motives of the
class which clamored most loudly for this
measure were detected and exposed by the
same Democratic Canal Board which afterward
yielded to its solicitations; and the question,
why did it yield, is fairly entitled to an answer.
There is another and graver ofiense of the
Democratic Canal Board not to be covered by
any plea whatever: the enormous increase of
Canal expenses under a declining business

The Esr1cRATroN TO TExAs-A G

The EMIGRATION TO TEXAS A cores
pondcnt of the st. Louis Republican,
who travelled recently with body Of
emigrants from the Southern States
across the Mississippi to Texas, and con
versed with them, gives the result of his
inquiries. Most Of them were never
slave nor land owners to any considera-
BILE extent-some were mechanics-the
lot Of all was to work for a living. In
slave times they made comfortable sup
port, and were not brought into direct
contact or competition with tho negro.
But since abolition, the entire labor sys-
tenn has been changed. The large landed
proprietors do not seem inclined to sell
portions of their land, or to encourage
the establishment of small farms. In
leasing, they lease to the best bidder,
whether whito man or freedman; in hir.
ing, they hire the cheapest labor, white
or black. The freedman has the advan-
tage in TINT it costs him but little to live,
and also in tho fact that he will save ex-
pense by stealing. For reasons of this
kind, these white people come to Texas,
where there is ample room for them to
choose situations land is cheap
and fertile, and the climate genial-where
everything needed by mun can be raised
in abundance-where the colored popu-
lation is small, compared with tho white
where there was not 80 much destruc-
ton by the war, and where the advantage
Of railroads penetrating in every dircc-
ton Is soon to be enjoyed.

The R.publlcan Party Dead.

tuesdays Democratic victory was the
Waterloo defect of Republicanism. It
was not merely the sign OF weakness; it
was the signal of collapse, the fore
shadowing of approaching dissolution.
The great Republican party shrinks,
after that blow, from the proportions of
n formidable giant to those of sickly
dwarf. It's race is run; it's mission is
fulfilled, and, in the shadow of its dis
comtitnre on Tuesday Inst, we SEQ it lag
superfiuous on the political stage Born
of unnatural events, heayed to promi
nence by national convulsion, with the
passing away of the circumstances thnt
created it. it passes away itself. Bril-
liant aud even grand its career has been;
but 1t possessed none of tho elements of
permanency, and its ephemeral existence
now draws to n close.
we doubt If there is vitality enough
in its organization to keep it together
until the next Presidential campaign. 1t
is more than probable that its leaders
Will quietly turn it into the grave that
yawns to receive it. and will seek new
issues and build new party with which
to enter the Presidential struggle. The
symptoms of its decay, as exhibited in
last weeks election, are too palpable to
be ignored by even its most sanguine
partisans. If there had been any fight
in tho organization it would certainly
have been brought ont in contest so
important as that which involved tho Sc
lections of the judiciary of this great
State. But there was not breath enough
to fan even n fitful famo Of enthusiasm :;
the heart that had throbbcd so fierccly
in the day Of its pride and strength
seemed nerveless, aud the sun went down
upon the decisive battle that seals the
fate of Republicanism, not in this State
alone, but throughout the Republic.
What an unanswerable attestation of
the innate strength, the vitality, the re-
cuperative power of Democracy! It has
passed alike the ordeal of triumph and
defent, handing down from generation
to generation its unulterabc principles,
and from the cloud Of disaster emerging
rs strong, as hcalthful, as hopeful as if
tho flow of its sunshine had been un-
broken. Other political parties have
been born, have hourishcd and have
died; new doctrines have been preached
and abandoned; but through all, in calm
and tempest, with the wind and against
the wind, the Democratic ship has held
It's course, steering to-day by the same
light that guided tho Democratic helms
men half century ago. The Republic
can have no better proof of the virtue
ana value of q political creed than this
stability. this unfaltering adherence
throughout oil the vicissitudes Of parti-
san warfare. While other organizations,
strong in their day, when their work is
done, stink silently into the pnst, the
Democratic party, yielding nothing to
Time, Identifies itself with tho national
existence, and witnessing to-day the
dying agonies of it's latest and most for
midable foe, feels its own fe-blood as
vigorous as ever, feels no symptom of
weakness, weariness or decay.

PoLITIcs IN GREECE AND Politics IN
SOUTH CARoLINA.-A correspondent of

Illustrating the true origin and meaning
of brigandage in Greece. The British
embassy rejoiced in a stately old Greek
porter, whose conduct was irreproacha-
BILE. The blameless sire unluckily pos
sessed q prodigal son, who fell among
thieves and became most masterful
robber. In the way of his new profess
sion he spoiled some English officers,
and though the fact that the sufferers
served Great Britain, which power
Islands no nonsense, led to On almost
immediate restoration of their valuables,
the Minister thought it necessary to in
form his porter of the evil deeds of his
progeny. The good old man, clasping
his hands in grief, exclaimed: "Ah!
your Excelency, and who had always
begged and entreated himto avoid poll
tics!"
It would seem that politics in Greece
and politics in South Carolina produce
similar effects Onr readers will see the
point.
