The Au0IGncke has never touched upon
State or local party questions and has never
insisted that the Democratic party should
disband.
The foregoing from the Memphis AUa-
IGncheof the 10th viii be sad news, we are
sure, to the Basner. In the Banner of the
18th we find the following:
The attempt to hold to local organization
by the Democrats, in order to secure a Dem
ocratic Congress, will be sure to be regard
ed by Republicans (who might otherwise
join the new party with enthusiasm) as a
: standing menace even to those who might
be willing to join crusade of all elements
of opposition to centralism, irrespective of
party names or organizations of the past.
Hitherto the Banner and the Avalanche
have been regarded as running in couples.
They have been considered as the leading
Evangelists of the new doctrine that Demo
cratic disorganization was essential to DO
litical salvation. While there can be no
mistake as to the position of the Bonner
both as to National and local organizations,
whether as to the election of President or
Gin order to secure Democratic Congress"
it would seem from our extract, given
above, from the AUGldnche it "has never
touched upon State or local party questions
and has never insisted that the Democratic
party should disband." While this is graft
flying TO the Democracy, it can but be
mournful to every friend of the Banner and
of Col. ]. Baxter, Knoxville, that they
should be left thus alone in their questiona-
Bile glory.

THE destruction OF creation of parties is
not the work of this or that newspaper, but
the work of the people and the labor of a
generation.
The above from the Memphis Aua.
Idnche, which was lately considered one OF
the most persistent organs of the Disorgan-
izers, is both comprehensive and true. 1t
is so plain and simple, so easily understood,
that even the most violent and virulent of
the DisorgaEizers must be satisfied that no
single individual, even though he be as po-
tent as John Baxter, attorney at law and
President of the Exchange Bank of Knox
vile, East Tennessee, cannot create party
without ''the work of the people and the
labor Of a generation" As the people can
not wait on Mr.. Baxter for generation"
to get up his new party, it is probable that
they viii cling to the unfinching Demoo-
racv.

Senator Schurz, in his great speech in the
United States Senate a few weeks ago,
hurled back on his assailants with magnif-
cent effect the charge that his exposure Of
Republican corruption had injured the Re-
publican party. 1t is the corruption, and
not his exposure of it, he truthfuly claim
| ed, which has done the mischief. eff such
things work against the success Ofthe ad-
ministration party exclaimed the German
orator, ''the fault does not lie with those
who denounce corruption. 1t is those syco-
plants. who, by covering up every
abuse, ever so glaring, and defend
ing every violation of law, ever so scaH-
dalous, have brought the common
wealth to the pass where we now find it.
Yes, there is senatorial cabaP upon this
floor. 1t is that cabal which defeated the
San Domingo scheme; it is that cabal which
forced the investigation of the corruption in
the New York Customhouse; it is that cabal
which exposed those abuses and rendered
necessary their reformation
A correspondent of the Washington Pat
riot, who signs himself an american Citi-
zen of German Birth" handles the French
arms business with true Teutonic spirit, and
scouts the idea that the Germans ofthe Uni
ted States viii sustain party that ''Violated
the laws of the country for the sake of vile
gain" He then says:
"There are six millions Gncluding chill
dren born in this country of Germans liT-
ing in the United States. They pay the
fifth, fnot the fourth, part of all the taxes
raised. Every fourth or fifth gun or can
non sold At that time to France was there
fore PAID for by the German citizens. And
those guns and cannons, thus paid for by
the German citizens themselves, were sold
by an administration, which in no small
degree was indebted to the German vote
for its ascendancy to power, to people en-
gagged in an aggressive war against the old
Fathe.land! The Radical party, through
its administration, thus compelled the
German citizens to be a witness of the
awful spectacle of seeing their own rela-
tives killed by thousands by guns and can
non which in part they had paid for with
Lneu OWN MOney! anu YET MeSSdS, -COnk-
ling and Morton maintain that the admin
istration had right to sell those arm and
manufacture new ammunition, and that
the Germans should even be thankful and
give that party their ballets that had the
kindness to furnish the French with Amer
lean bullets for their German relatives in
the late war. Yes, Messrs. Conkling and
Morton, the German citizens will Smem-
Der and acknowledge past favors at the
next election-yOu may be sure"

1t was stern, memorable duty that forced
Abraham to lead Isaac to the slaughter.
The word Democrat and Democracy are
endeared to us all by hallowed associations.
To give up a name so cherished is like part
ing with the friend of our youth. But we
see no hope for the South through the Or
ganiZation of party whose mission has
been performed and which is shorn of all
power to heal existing issues.
The Bdmerquote approvingly the above
from an editorial in one of its contempora-
ries. That may have been good doctrine in
It's day, as it Was all right for Abraham to
lead Isaac to the slaughter. But we are
not DOW in the days of the Patriarchs and
we object to the Banners considering itself
Abraham and the Democracy Isaac. If,
however, it should insist upon playing
Abraham to our Democratic Isaac we are
satisfied that it can by looking to one side
behold ram caught in the thicket by bis
horns in the shape of "the Baxter move
ment." The Banner may slay that and
give us JOY, provided it does not thereby
commit suicide.
