fail to advance any pkusable reasons
why tAey should again have control OF
the government all that they can, and
ala that they do say, is that the Republi-
can party is too corrupt and too imbe-
cile TO manage our governmental affairs.
In their estimation, things generally,
under Republican rule, are all out Of
order, and that Rothing under the broad
canopy of heaven, save the Democratic
party, can again "sAape up" matters.
Well, to tell the truth, the majority of
the voters OF the United States are dis
posed 10 believe that the country has al
ready been cursed with little too much
Democratic rule, aud hence do not, at
present, evince great desire to again
place in power the reclessly corrupt
party which caused and brought upon
us the awful rebellion wherein thousands
were slain and impoverished. Many of
the survivors of that Democratic rebel
lion may be seen daily in any city, town
or hamlet throughout the length and
breadth of our now prosperous country,
limping about, or wearing coat, one
sleeve of which is not filed with an
arm. The leaders Of that party entailed
upon the country the enormous debt
which, under Republican rule, is being
rapidly paid of.
The record Of the party is entirely toe
bad to warrant any further federation
of their rule. 1t shows nothing but
"corruption," yet these leaders have
the unprecedented impudence to yell
corruption corruption TO have
prosperity, we must again put in power
the Democracy ~
The truth is, the so-called democracy is
deplorably behind the age, and the only
effort they have made to catch up was
in the "ncw departure" dodge, which
by no means, happens to meet the ap
probation of the generality ofthe 'outtit

ords of Advice.

If the O?angemen determine 10 parade,
they have right to parade that is.
they have as much right to parade with
regiment has with green scarts and sun
bursts. But, it may be that neither
party has right to parade that they
have simply been tolerated 10y the au-
thorlties. If it be found that such tolera-
ton is detrimental to public security,
we think that every rejecting Irish.
American citizen will 1T once say that
both professions should be prescribed.
The very ablest defenders OF the mob
say that they do not quarrel with the
Orangemen simply because they are Pro
testants. What do they quarrel with
them for? They have no right to
quarrel with them for their colors, tor

lied with view to make wal on En-
gland, tlaunls the green flag of Ireland
in the faces of thousands of Englishmen
in New York city. Really, we are al
most forced 10 the conclusion that the
whole ground of objection consists in
the Orangcmen play 'Croppies Lie down.
We admit thai this is and should be con
sidercd an insulting tune by the Irish
people and we should deeply regret to
see them lose their deteslation of it.
But, let MS ask, is it sufficient cause to
warrant a violation OF the law and !.
sacrifice of life We have written this
article with most oppressive feeling of
its necessity. Thousands OF people who
are too intelligent to put their individual
opinions agalms: the decree OF the State
OF New York, still allow their sympathy
to run away with them, and thus leave
| it in the power of their enemies to say
tha, they are in all things i'll unison with
the New York mob. This is sad mis-
take. Certain it is that the Orange pro-
cession is not pleasant sight 20 any
Irish Catholic, however unpreju indeed
but it is Just as certain that the Irish
Catholics of this country, as body, con-
demu all breach OF the law, in attacking
an Orange procession, just as honestly
rs they would condemn riot OF any
other criminal nature.
There are two ways Of getting rid OF
this apple Of discord. The first is by an
agreement between the general Irish
population and the Orangemen foregoing
all right 10 parade, and expressing their
determination never to hold professions
for Irish political objects alone. This,
we may rest assured, will not be easily
agreed to. The second one is the best
and the one that must come in the end
when America, tired out and indignant
with her squabbling population, puts
her foot down with a Will and tells them
all-GeVmans, French, Irish, Orange
"You have had enough now. There i,
only enc flag to be raised in future il
this country, and that flag is the stari

Encouraging accounts Of the Republi.

Encouraging accounts Of the Republi-
can canvass in Mississippi, says the Tri6-
uoe, reach us. The searching inquiry of
the Congress Committee into the out
RACES of Southern conservatives" has
served to carry dismay into the regions
where intimidation and violence had
previously kept down Republican Ma
jorities. We shall probably see the
fruits of this wholesale alarm in an in
creased vote at the election in Novem-
Der. In North Carolina, the campaign
against the proposed illegal Amendments
to the Constitution is vigorously pressed,
and with increasing courage 1t does
NO: seem possible that the people OF that
State can hazard SO dangerous an expert
nlent as Endorsing the plainly unconsti-
iutional action OF the North Carolina
Legislature.
The remarks of NJ. Theirs on the
Roman question on the 22d, are tenn
perate, and calculated to allay alike the
unreasonable expectations Of the Ultra
moutanes and the apprehensions of the
friends of peace. Whatever is done, the
President is positive that nothing which
might lead to war is possible fcr France.
n . steps which might even tend TO al
ienate Italy are to be taken. This
certainly ought to satisfy those who
have thought it likely that France would
be mad enough to complicate affairs
with Italy while the work Of reorganiza
tion-which specially required peace
should still be going on at home. On
the other hand, the Ultranontane organ
in Paris demands that Corsica be offered
the Pope as San inviolable residence" )"
There is not much probability that NJ.
Thicrs's government will not do any such
foolish thing, and still less that the Pope
would accept the island, after his repeated
assertions that he should never quit Rome.
