Still 10th to Depart.

THE binding Obligation yes, to this
extent, that nobody proposes to take
arms to brush them from the leaves OF
the Constitution, and therefore every
body proposes to acquiesce in and submit
to them while they stand on the pages
of the Constitutions But is this not a
very different thing from accepting and
withdrawing opposition to them as dead
issues?' Ii the new departure had
said we are not going to throw away time
and strength in an effort to get rid o1
these accomplished frauds in this
election, but as soOu as We are IN posi-
ton to wipe out the stain they are upon
the Constitution we shall make haste to
do so. everybody would have understood
it. But as it is, tie new departure is
double blind. or rather so intended tc
be-frst TO the Radicals, who are to be
made to believe that the democracy ac'
cept that much OF their piaItornl: and
second to the Democrats, to whom 1t
says. to be sure, we adhere to the amend
ments as d binding part Of the Constltu
ton, but we are fooling those RAIDS, as
soon as We get the power we shall wipe
them out The result is an attempt at
double-dealing that does not deceive Ell
ther party. 1t lets go the meat and
grasps the shadow upon the water. We
must confess the canning of this is either
toe deep or too transparent for us

The Govern n0rship.

But little more than month remains
before the Republican State Convention
will be held. and but short time will
elapse before the primary meetings will
| make the choice Of delgates. 1t is for
tunately the case that the leading and
possible candidate for the Governorship,
are men of such character, position, ex-
perience and ability. that any one of them
| it nominated, would be entitled to the
undivided support Of the party, yet OF
course their ability is not equal, and one
choice might be more fortunate and wise
than another. We brlieve that wise
choice would designate Gen. Washburn,
l. He Is free from any entangleme ut
upon the local questions of difference in
the State. In this he has greatly the
while his sound judgment and unques-
toned integrity give satisfactory evidence
that every interest in the State would re-
hands
2. His locality is favorable. The Sixth
District embraces one half of the terri
tory of the State, and furnishes nearly
the entire Republican majority. Hereto
fail from the tables of Conventions. Now,
when it presents candidate every way
worthy to lead the ticket, with the local
ity Of the candidates for the other places
favorable to his selection, it is simply
common fairness and Justice that the
claim of this locality be granted.
3. Gen. Washburn is himself every
way worthy of the place. He is one of
the men who has made the rarty-made
it alike honorable and victorious. The
record of his public services and the hon
orable national reputation which he has
won, Justly entitle him to preference and
preeminence over all his competitors. If
nominated, he will bring to the Execu-
tive Chair a ripe judgment, an inflexible
Integrity, and weight of influence hon
orable to himself and valuable to the
State. Every personal and public con-
sideration-his own unchallenged fitness
.rar the office, and the just claims of To-
caIity, alike demand his nomination.

that the World said the acts on which

That is question that Southerners
want answered. They want to know how
the Democratic leaders can denounce the
amendments as frauds and usurpations,
and consistently depart" from opposi-
ton to them.
1t is unkind in Mr.. Stephens to ask
such questions. He exposes the false
logic and hypocricy of the World by his
frankness but does real service to the
country by an open confession Of Demo
cratic designs, precisely as he intensified
the opposition to the Confederacy by de-
claring that slavery was It's corner stone.
Mr., Stephens boldly declares that he
is mot engaged in any such fantastic
political comedy as calling upon the peo-
pie to repeal the reconstruction acts -
but they are to be asked ''to vote for nc
mar, from the Chief Magistrate down,
who will give his sanction of validity to
any measure based upon such assump-
tions as these so-called amendments are
known to be.
This is explicit and embraces what Mr..
Stephens calls living issues. The last
two amendments are to be utterly repu-
dated with all the reconstruction acts.
To recognize them would be as ''fagi-
tiously criminal he says, ''as to add to
or take from the sacred text would be
impiously wicked against the mandates
of the Most High.

Eleven Pregnant Facts Brought to

It's Democratic Paternity,

The Congressional Committee investi-

Some of the Democratic papers are

Grant was elected by the Republican
party. He has studiousy carried out
the wishes of his leading statesmen, and
has kept it more co impact and harmonl-

sought to foist upon it any distractlng

of annexing San Domingo, he has calm

Democratic Policy.

Alexander II. Stephens is an exponent
of Southern sentiment. His frank ut
terances, recently have injured the Demo
cratic party at the North, and there has
been an attempt to silence him. But
having millions of followers in the South,
he de6es the officious politicians and re-
pudiates their schemes. The New York
World published an article few days
since, which it evidently supposed would
crush him about as hundred pound
weight would frog, if placed upon Its
hack. But the intended victim suddenly
swelled, and, in the opinion of his ad
mirers. he sent a reply flying through
