The CONCERT--The Concert in aid Of
the Chicago Sufferers, last Wednesday
evening, was decided success, and about
$50 were realized for the benefit of the
distressed. The music was excellent. The
singing Of Mrs. Hemcnway and Morgan,
was really artistic, and the performance On
the piano by Misses Lowe aud Shaffer, far
above the average abilities of good per-
formers. The singing of the Glee Club is
two we'll known to need commentator.
The ladies and gentlemen who so generous
ly contributed their time and talents to
the noble cause are deserving of all praise.

wrote to the Receiver of the Land Office
at Vancouver in relation to the cffec, Of

veyci lanls as follows:
| Perhaps you arc aware a. the fac, That an
order of withdrawal of lands for railroad pur
poses does not cover and apply to unsurvryc,l

That journal also directs attention to
Section q Of the act of July =, 1864, iu-
cooperating the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company, which reads as follows:
THE odd sections of land hereby granted

ton. before or after they are surveyed, except
by said company
1t then says 1t is difficult to imagine
now any one with the astutcncss of Mr.
Garfclde could make the statement con-
tanned in his letter, above quoted, unless
he had entirely overlooked the 9Th Sec

who accompanies Miss Anthony on her
cc,uring tour of the Sound. The admira.
bic results of the lady's efforts to establish
her journal were set forth in her remarks
of Tuesday evening. She said she began
the enterprise sixteen years ago, by rock,
.ing the cradle of, and singing lullabys to,
the oldest of the three sons who perform
the mechanical labor upon her paper
The type and material were paid for out
of the earnings of her sewing machine,
and the editorial labor was performed ex-
clusively by herself. a noble example of
the enterprise of American womanhood
when emancipated from the thralldom
which has hitherto bound her down to the
irivolities and vanitics of life May it
stimulate others to effort, and fit them for
the duties which they will soon be called
upon to discharge as co laborers in the
great problem of self government.

what Party is to Blanee for High
Taxes

The Daily Gazette published at Meri-
dian, Miss, says:
The blessings" the poor man de-
rives from Radicalism can be summed up
by high taXes-taxe that rob him Of his
land and deprive his wife and httle ones
OF the necessaries of life, &c, &c. :"
These words from such a source GER
tainly come with rather bad grace, when
it is notorious fact, that every attempt
made by the Republican members in
Congress with voice to reduce taxation
in any form has been invariably met by
Democratic members with stern oppos;-
ton.
But in spite Of this opposition, in spite
of the vast legacy bestowed upon the Re-
publican party in the way Of the Nation
al debt-for which the Democratic party
is directly sponsible-besides paying off
$3.50, 900, 600 OF this Democratic public
debt-a sum equal to more than one
eighth of our whole bounded obligations,
the Republican party has by its own
strength stricken from the tax lists over
l2,OOO articles, thereby repeating direct
taxes to the amount of $4,000 600.
If these taxes had not been repealed,
the $S0,000,000 of revenue thus lopped
off, would have gone towards decreasing
the Democratic public debt, but while
The Republican party has labored honest
iy and faithfully towards reducing expen-
dltures, as well also as diminishing the
and interest of the public debt,
1t has not been unmindful of the inter-
est of the poor, having proved itself to
be their friend by reducing taxes upon
almost every article that is not classed as
a luxury and this too in face Of the
most bitter opposition by the Democratic
members of Congress.

Why n Democratic Editor Ieft the
Party,

Col. T. r. Manleve, an ex Confederate
soldier and Democratic editor in Texas,
thus gives his reasons for abandoning the
Democratic and joining the Republican
party. Time and experience have forced
the conviction upon my mind that De
moeracy has ceased to be. No longer ami
mated by those patriotic impulses which,
in other and happier days, achieved so
much in Iiberty's behalf, its constituted
leaders have prostituted the cardinal
principles of republican government in a
mad scramble for place and power, and,
oblivious to the solemn truth that the
appeal 10 arms has been made and lost
still strive to invoke from dead nation 5
tonsb The shadowy phantoms OF an ire
vocable past.
Republicanism, on the other hand,
meets the living issues of the time III
which we live Though not free from
blemish in its long lease of power. Ii
binds itself indisSolubiy to truth and duty,
espouses as It's own the interest or sui
fering humanity everywhere, and bids de
fiance to all the powers of the universe
to sever it from civil aud religious free
dom. Permitting the dead Past 20 bury
the dead, II looks with unfaiterlng trust
to the future. wherein It's grand mission
is to be accomplished, and peace and lib
erty become the portion OF aii.

and few other disconsoIate statesmen of
lost opportunities of the Southern wing
of the Democratic party are teaching
their handful Of disciples that the amend
ed Constitution is all wrong and ought to
be annulied, the recent address of the
Boston Young Democracy contains this:
We must have it derstood-briefy,
broadly and omprehensivcly-that we
are for the National Constitution as it is;
that we regard it as our first. last and on
iy guide, and from its parchment folds we
would not erase single letter or single

The Banner will find that the followers
Of Toombs and Stephens are not mere
handful of disciples" but that they
embrace a majority Of all old fashioned
Democrats. The only sensible thing for
the Banner and all other new departur-
lists to do, is to join the Republican party
and thereby attest their sincerity in pro-
Tossing new departure principles.

THE PILOT.

Our last shot into the den of that de-
lectable sheet brought out a discharge Of
the veritable Skunk" under the name
Of Uncle Philo." Happily we are
standing too high, to have even to fear
of being reached by the foul discharges;
the mephitic stencil will continue to CEN
ter in the originator. We now repeat for the
third and last time, that we never recciv-
ed two payments for one account through
Mr.. Fuessenich or any one else, and fur
ther, that If one Of our charges proved
too high for some job work for the
County, we had the best authority for the
charge in the law fixing the rates and in
the decision Of the late Go. Com. on
claims.
That the assertion in our article on
Democratic depravity' is true, we can
prove right here il the way Fuessenich
was permitted to get away. Selah.

/ alsc P-eIictiOn-A Contrast.

During the last Presidential Campaign,
the country was treated to prediction
by Frank Blair that Gen Grant, if elect
ed to tie presidency, would assume ab-
soiute power. to the destruction of Re-
publican Government, and in support of
this gratultous opinion the democratic
press teemed with doieful forebodings,
and quoted instances OF the danger of en-
trusting power to victorious military
chieftaIns. Two years Of Grant admin
istraIion have passed away, renowned as
much for their fruits OF peace as the last
two years of bis military campaign are
celebrated for brilliant successful war.
1T Appomattox stamped the General
ln-Chief OF our armies as the greatest
warrior OF the age. the overthrow and
complete route of the ku klux in North
Carolina, bids fair to fix the reputation Of
our president as a great ar-seeing, care
tui statesman.

Nothing seems palmer than that the

the Democrat tic party; established and
operated with the view Of affecting po-
litical results. This seems to be the gem
eral purpose of the organization, and the
direction in which all their acts point.
The substantial declaration made when
Ku-klux crimes and outrages were be-
ing committed was that their perpetra-
tors, and those they claimed to represent
did not propose to submit to negro gov

ocratic party, and that they prefer to
appeal to brute force, instead of to the
decision OF the people through the ballot
Instead of npen-armed revolt against the
Government and resistance to the eXecu-
ton Of law and order, it seems that we
are to have systematic lawlessnesS and
intimidation, dsgraceful to humanity and
civilization, under the auspices
Of the Democratic party. Is it thus that
the Lost Cause Is To rethrleve itself? Ii
so we appeal to ali fair minded men in
the Democratic party to take at once a
new departure by voting with the Re-
publican party, and thus refuse to coop
crate with infatuated men who haye SO
baseIy prostituted their ancient organiza-
ton. Let the freemen of the North, IT.

honorable deicat, and surrender. At the
ba!lotbox and III our legislative halls
