The Platform Of the "New Party"
just organized in Cincinnati, by ex-
Secretary Cox aud other dissatisfied re-
publicaus, has been published in full.
Its cardinal principles are general am
nesty, tariff for revenue only, civil SER
vice reform, and early resumption of
specie payments. In each ofthese par
ticulars it puts itself in antagnoism to
the prevailing sentiment Of the repub-
hcan party, and in accord with the
Democratic party. The new movement
appears to create excitement in the re-
publican ranks. IL is very forcibIy aud
truly charged that the present system
Of revenue promotes corruption and
plumber, Increases the cost Of living,
criPples our export trade, destroys our
shipbuilding, and paralyzes our industry,
while creating odius monopoIies and
entailing great expense and frauds in
collection Of the revenues Of the govern
meDt. Harper's Weekly is Of the opiu-
ion that ''the formation Of new party
is impracticable-" Longer atiIiation
With the Radical party seems to be
deemed BY the Cincinnatians impossible,

his reply in last weeks Sentinel, to my
article in your paper of the previous
week, complains Of unlaithfulness upon
the part OF the Democrats for two sue.
cessive years. Now Sirs. | would re-
mind the gentleman, that two years ago
the Republicans prevailed upon two or
three Democrats to run upon their ticket
and thus succeeded in dividing the
Democrat vote sufficiently to elect their
men and claimed Republican victory.
Last year a number of Democrats
were determined to redelm the ground
lost, aud snatch from the grasp Of the
Republican party those Democrats who
had acted as members in the preceding
Council; put forth straight out Dem.
ocratic ticket aud elected it, and though
such was the result, can Republican
assert that those few Democrats, who
undertook in caucus to speak for the
whole party and thus prepare fusion
ticket, did not redeem their pledge ant
vote the fusion tieketg
But there is secondly ia his reply.
encouragement of our corporation Of
ftirs." Pray Mr.. Republican where is
the Encouragement of the Democratic
board I! Is it in lighting up the streets
with gas? That was done by the en-
dorscment ofmany noble spirits Of your
party as well as ours.
Is it because Of stringent efforts to
collect the Corporation Taxes, though
they have to resort to the strong arm
Of the Law ? Or is it because Of the late
assessment, which is based upon the
true foundation of all taxation, viz : the
wealth Of the party assessed, whether
their property be Of lands, houses, bonds,
stocks, &c, &c.
And now Messrs. Editors, in conclu.
sion, would again urge the propriety Of
calling general town meeting of all
parties aud select therefrom gentlemen
who are alive to the interests Of our
City, and who regard the improvements
of the same of paramount Importance to
politics. DEMOCRAT.

GRAND SALE OF Town LoTs. We
call attention to the plan of John c.
Frizell, Esq, for the disposition Of bis
Town Lots, announced in the business
columns Of this paper. The complaint
is otter heard, from those who desire to
build, that the price Of Town Lots is
too high for men of moderate means
Me-. Frizell has put the price Of his
Lots so low, aud the terms Of payment
so easy, that any one may secure Lot
who desires to do so. And, even It the
purchaser should not want to build, i'm
mediatel,, the probabilities are that the
increase in the value Of the Lots will
make the speculation profitable one
to those who merely wish to buy and
hold them for the sake Of the advance.
Westminster is improving, aud must
continue to improve. Town Lets will
be more and more in demand Those
who bought lots here, years ago, have
been made rich by the increased value
Of their property. Nearly all the lots
on our principal street nre occupied,
aud the town must spread out 10 breadth,
as well as length, and these Lots Of
fered by Mr.. Frizell are so nearly cen
trail, as to make them desirable on &C.
count Of their location and convenience
to the business centre of the city. Now
is your chance to secure Lot on such
terms as may never be offered again.
Don't let the opportunity slip without
embracing l..

Baltimoreans are perplexcd, not only
over Jones Falls, but over the Gas
Company. A New York company late
ly bought out their gas works, and have
raised the price of gas for each city
lamp from s35 to S55, per aonum.
Tho original price paid for each city
lamp was $40 per aanum. But prices
were advanced finally to s35 At these
rates the company increased their stock

exorbitant advance in the price of gas,
that there is serious talk Of return to
oil. If the citizens would resolve to do
it, they would soon bring their New

The Nep York Tribune urges the
Radical party to begin the campaign Of
1872 now, by inducing every one they
can Ito take aud read some Republican
newspaper? Democrats, here is an
important lesson for you Your party
organs ought to be put into the hands
Of every man. In this way you can
disseminate, far and wide, Democratic
truth. Begin the work at once, and
profit by this hint from your adverse
ries. Put the ADVOCATE into the hands
Of every man in this county. 10 this
way you will not only be able to hold
your own in the county, but gain on
your former majority.

A Warning.

The New York Post issues long APP
peal to the Republicans in Congress,
pointing QUITO them tho folly Of following
up the KusKluk bill, aud proving that
il is usurpation of authority 1t may
be asked, the writer says, whether life
and property are to rcmain insecure in
the Southern States land this be ans
wers:
The Federal Government has powers and
duties strictly defined and limited in the
Constitution. We cannot safely permit it
to act beyond these. II is not without its
constitutional power to interfere in the in
ternal affairs Of the States, and il ought not
TO be.
II prosecuted loyalists" are uncom-
Portable. he advises them to remove to
ether localities, and forcibly adds:
The Southern disorders make an oppor-
tunity Toe the, secret enemies Of the Consti-
tuition, for men Of boundless and reckless
ambition 70 prepare the way for the over
throg Of our system ofgovernment. Doubt
less many men in Congress act in ignorance,
and out Of motives Of humanity and gener.
ons regard for those whom they believe
weak and injured. But behind these stand
other men whom no one imagines to be
humanitarians whom no one suspects to
act in ignorance; who comprehend but too
well the drift and meaning Of the unconsti
tutional and centralizing legislation they
urge; who are preparing revolution, foster
ing and increasing disorder, aecustoming
the people TO violent measures and repres,
sive legislation, to force bills, and standing
armies in time Of peace, because thus their
hidden plots Of ambition can be realized !;
because every day which sees this ruinous
policy continued brings nearer the time
when they may snatch supreme power,
crush liberty, destroy the safeguards Of the
Constitution, and make themselves masters
Of the nation.
That is the real meaning Of the Ku- Klux
legislation. It's promoters are The enemies
Of he Union, tte haters cfiiberty, The secret
piotters Of our ruin as a free people.
The Commercial has an article in
much the same drift as that Of the Post,
and denounces the Ku-Kluk bill in un-
measured terms, as being ,uncoustitu-
tional, and investing the President with
undue power. 1t also says that it is
time the Republican party should under
stand the dement's of much Of the plan
Of reconstruction they have been SO sed-
uioasly following, adding
Il Is wrong in the outset, and it had con.
tinued in ways that are dark all the time,
Withholding from the citizens Of the South
such participation in its government as was
essential to tho orderly administration Of
aftairsto contentment with the new situation
which the war had forced upon them. IL
these are the fruits OF Eve years of federal
control, would It not be well 10 try new
experiment and see if autonomy is not

death Of loyal officer who was advanc.
