THE HONEST DEMOCRATS N THE CAMPAIGN.
Since 1850 the Republican party has year
his wear been strengthened by steady Access
sions from the best elements of the Demo-
cratic organization. When the dag was fred
ON Al Sumter hundreds Of the old Democratic
leaders ullltu themselves Win Tue DhIlN llhl
Inscribeb nm Tia colors the pcrpetuIty and
indIssolulility of the Union. At the same
time hundreds of thousands Of the rank and
file of the party enlisted In the armies for the
suppression of the rebellion, and have since
remained sound Republicans. Seventy-hye
p,r cent. Of the men who went into the late
Struggle from the North came out Republl-
ems. aud have since voted the Republican
ticket. A good many OF them, 1t Il true voted
lJr Mcclellan In 1851 against Mr Lincoln,
because they believed that he had been badly
tire Ited, and that he honestly endeavOred to
do the part assigned him to do. But when,
IN 1865, the Democratic convention Ut New
York framed reasonable platform and put
Seymour and Blair upon II these men wheeled
ri sht into line under the standard OF the Vie
torious chief who crushed the rebellion and
compelled the surrender OF General Lee.
We put Il to these men II they ever had rea-
son to regret the change In their political sen
timeuts; II they have not been kindly treated
In our Republican household; II, In fact, any
discrimination whatever has been made
az ilnst them 10 the distribution OF the honors
that tue party had To confer.
The reasons why honest Democrats 1--WE
want none otheT,) should unite with the Re-
pIblican party to-day are almost as strong Us
were those which induced so large number
of their faith to come over TO our side In 1884
aud 1873. LODGED In A strict party view they
are infinitely more potent and convincing.
Let US look at the situation and consider a
little. In the first place there Is no Demo-
cratic party so-called. There Is party in
the field In opposition to the regular Repub-
liCan Organization, but what its name Is, Is
something that no fellow eau hnd out II Is

The London Telegraph has received from the

lately deciphered from the Assyrian monuments :.

found translated gives long and full account 81

which existed III the early Chaldean period AZ
Erech Zone OF the cities Of Nimrod), now repre-
sented ~ the ruins Of Warka. In this uevlv.ti,s.
covered inscription the account of the DeuRe is
put as narritive into the mouth of Xisuthrus or
North. lie relates the wickedness of the werid.
!ne command to build the ark, its bullinR, the flI.
ing OF 1t. the Deluge. the resting Of the ark on q
mountain, the sending out OF tho birds. and
other matters. The narrative has closer resen,.
Dlance to tho account transmitted by the Greeks
from Berosus, the Chaldean historian, than to the
biblical history, but it does not differ materially
from either; the principals differences are as to the
duration OF the Deluge. the name OF the mountain
on winch the ark rested, the sending out of the
