EXECcTiON OF 4 MURDERED
The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1873-09-03
The Democratic Revival.

The theory of the revival of the old
Democracy is not so illogical and un-
reasonable as at first might appear
1t is ably expounded in the platform
of the Ohio Convention-whch nomi
mated Allen for GOvernOr-and in Ger
tain very able articles in the New
York World.
1t is this: The various new depart
ures and coalitions of the old party
have only demonstrated it's native and
original power, and the diminutiOn of
the same from all divergences and
evolutions There is no longer an ex-
cuse for these in the blunders, errors
and involvements of the party, result
ing from the rebellion and its conse-
Quences. All such embarrassment
have disappeared with the subsistence
Of the passions and prejudices kindIed
by the war. The Democracy has
cleared it's records on these scores
It's leaders and chiefs are of the classes
which have no antecedents that can be
cited against them in that issne.-
Their skirts are free from all stain of
secession, rebellion, pro-slavery ideas.
They have renowned AL opposition to
the constitutional amendments result
ing from the war, which have become
fixtures. And why now may they not
recall the minds of the people to their
ancient ideas and policies, which are
founded on eternal truths, aud which
have in the past contributed so greatly
to the glory and greatness of the coun-
try?
Now is the time to bring forward
these old cardinal ideas of the natioual
Democracy, from which the people
have been detected by sectional pas
sions and temporary policies. Their
maintenance and enforcement are es-
sential to the rescue OF the Govern
ment from corruption, prohisacy, OK
travagance, ringiSm and Casarism.
1t can only be effected 10y II return tc
the old Democratic system ofan-ti mo.
nopoly, anti-class protection and ele
walton, anti-paper money, anti-antoc
racy and consolation.
The Grange movement is a proof o
oftbis strong tendency of the people
That is, indeed, q Democratic move
ment in split and sentiment. 1t viii
naturally cooperate with the Democ
racy when that party can clear itsel
of it's recent involyements.
Let the old party, then, move stead
lily in this path, and will, the ai:! ofti
excuses, foIlies, and unmistakable ten
. denotes to concentrated power ant
monarchism of the party in power,
may soon again arise with new powe
and sweep everything before it, ant
resume it's once glorious reign.
, This is the prediction and polio
} now manfully maintained by the lead
, ing intellects Of the old Democrat
party. We confess that it is one ,
some force and plaosibiiit! - Ne,

BRIBERY AT WAsHINGToN.-The
New York Sun publishes the following
communications:
If you will investigate the matter of
the contracts of the American Seal Lock
Company with the Treasury Depart
ment, YOU will find they have been

Gals at Washington.

Who received $1,000 for putting

Who are the parties that, when the
original contract was being contested
for by seveal companies, sent all the
private information from the Treasury
Department Immediately on receipt, to
Citizen Brooks at his room?
| Different consuls in Canada were
said to he bribed to give favorable re-
ports of the American seal lock.
Citizen Brooks can afford to be libe

bonds of Miss Shotwell.
WHY does not this latter case come
to trial? The accomplish, Everett, was
released on bail and sent to Canada.
from there to England, where he now
is. The party who went his bail re-
ceived $500 for doing so.
The whole concern has been rOtted
as could be, and all their trade was
done by paying the under officials o
different rail roads heavy commission:
for procuring orders.
fyou can get at the facts, you viii
find something interesting, aud show

men of business have lost heavily tt
support such schemers, with their fas
companions.

Ey The nominee of the Virginia
Conservatives for Governor, in q letter
addressed to Gen. EARLY, who opposed
him in the convention, says: II shall
be every inch Governor, and shall,
SO far as might know how, dispense
impartial, scrupulous and fearless JUS
tice to all interests and men. 1t is very
gratifying to me that, while all sorts of
representative men and their friends
have communicated with me, not Que
of them sought, and all of them have
disclaimed seeking any pledges what
ever at my hands. In no event will l
he the property of any friend or set OF
friends, aad III no event will harbor
one atom Of resentment against any

that, in electing Kemper. Virginia will

u According to a European ex-
change, England has capital of 500,
OQO, 900 invest ed in cotton manufacto-
ries, and no less than 100000 people
are supported by this branch ofindus-
try. The low price of labor in that
country fostered the business. The
increased cost of English labor threat
ems to crippiei it. Manchester is alarm
ed, and not without reason. At the

in few years, be nearly on footing,
