that IN order To save the South from inter-
ruin, the Democracy must be willin, IN

following argument on the subject:
The election Of Greeley and Brown bv
Democratic woes involves the inevitable,
accompaniment OF the election of a
Democratic majority in the Lower
House of the next Congress. This is
worth more than the Presidency or the
Vice Presidency, or both together: for
Congress Is the real seat OF power in our
government, as the plain lesson OF the
last eleven years has demonstrated. A
Democratic President with Republican
House to oppose hun, would be the most
helpless OF beings; but a Democratic House.
even with Radical President in the

House fiinging his vetoes back in his face.
