THE ERROR OF A STATESMAN.

MI. HrOeSDeck. the man VINO mas
come according to the New York SIN,
made speech in kentucky last week
which is travelling over the Union some
thing after the fashion Of one of Rhoderick
Dhus flaming signal lights. Mr.. Groes-
beck is rather lovable kind of man,
which We may say without danger, as this
very quality will kill him with the Democ-
racy; but he deals in great many plati-
tudes, as his reference to our ''fireside
government, which is vague and in
definite expression, amply demonstrates.
All governments are for the freside, and
none more so than the one under which
We live at present, or else great majority
OF the American people are seriously mis-
taken. Mr.. Groesbeck must remember
that the laws and institutions of this
country, including even the Presidency,
emanate from the firesides of the people,
where they are discussed and decided
after long intervals Of consideration and
patriotic devotion. The Republicans are
as much interested in good government
as any other class of citizens, not except
ing candidates for the Presidency, and as
they constitute large majority of the
thinking portion Of Mr.. Groesbeck's
countrymen, perhaps it would be more
charitable in him to credit them with
desire to preserve the ''fireside" system
than to be continually asserting that none
bat the Democrats understand or appre-
ciate the genuine principles of popular
government. He weakens his great repu-
tation when lie appeals to the prejudices
OF the public with the incorrect statement
that the form Of our government has been
changed in any particular. Some of its
details have been altered to meet new
and enlarged condition of freedom, but
the power of the State is still in the hands
Of the people. No law can be passed
without the consent of Congress, and |
Congress can do nothing which its con-
'tituents can not repeal at once, if they
ire dissatisfied, By repudiating the authors
md abettors of the evil. In fact, some Of
he greatest politicians Of the Union, both
North and South, and some from Europe,
90, have asserted that our greatest dan
ger lay in the direction of the freside and
lot of the government. The people
ometimes rush off after signal lights that
re delusive and fatal, because they are
lot thoroughly versed in all the element
ny business of constructing and con-
CRYING free institutions. The true mean
5 to give the people credit for good inten-
ions, and then appeal to their reason in
he interest of that which is best There
5 too much error and bad blood in cir
ulation already to allow such men as Mr..
'roesbeck to be adding to the volume by
ttering platitudes that weak minds ac-
ept as truths. to the general detriment.
here is no party in this country at pres
ut that wants to abolish ''our freside
overnment," and 1Ir. Groesbeck lives
mid people too intelligent to be moved
y any baseless suggestion. However, he
id not use this extraordinary language
