The Democratic family has had its
peace of mind recently disturbed by
the birth of twins, whose outcry
greatly annoyed the family circle and
caused among some of the members
of the household discussion as to
what position should be given the
newcomers. They were first chris
tened and took, under the auspices
of Democratic god-fathers, respect
lively, the names New Departure"
and "Passiye Policy" The first
bantling was the idol of the hour
Grave men said in time the child
would be the guiding star of the
Democracy, and leading lights en-
deavored to prepare the public mind
to expect new era in Democratic
policy. But the election came, the
people were disgusted, and would
not rally around a creature whose
success would lead them from the
landmarks of their faith. New De-
parture died, unwept, unhonored
and upsung.
The other child. called Passive
Policy, survived. His friends were
not of fighting element who knew
no such word as surrender; they
were generally auiable, weakened
Democrats who looked TO the flesh
pots of Office, and not to rigid main
tenance through storm and hail-fall
of our time-honored principles
Their object was non-action. They
were to serve as q corps of mere
camp-followers when the cohesive
bands of public plunder should no
longer prove capable of holding the
Radicals together. This sickly child
was in the fever OF hasty consump-
ton. From the shores of the Pa
cific. from the granite hills of New
Hampshire and from the hermitage
of Tennessee, came voices which told
the Democracy that the time had
come in which they must prepare for
battle. That the present party in
power, unparalleled in corruption,
could no more withstand the shock
of battle than chatf could stand the
hurricane. The people love their
ancient faith, and the attempts of a
few leading journals, not over five or
six, have found little response in the
city or country press of any Demo-
cratic State. Both creatures-Mon-
grel twins-were created in sensation
and for time-serving policy. They
are now dead. The result of the
elections for the Forty-second Con-
gress showed that out of an aggre-
gate of five and a half million votes,
the Radicals had less than forty-tWo
thousand majority, and in that con-
test we conld have carried with that
vote majority of the electoral col
lege.
We lave held the Democratic
standard aloft in darker days thaa
those which are now dawning. In
1864 we made rally amid the storm
of battle that showed the love of
principle animating the Democracy.
In 1868 we made another gallant
fight under Seymour, and while
marching steadily forward there
came a sensational report from the
New York World that the proprsty
of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. had been
considered. 1t was falsehood, but
served its purpose. 1t disheartenea

grammes and platforms We must
