citizen Of the Southern States exercised
the same privileges Of opinion INDUCED
by the Democrat CT Pennsylvania, and
deemed system Of domestic manutac-
lures entitled to even the incidental pro-
| lection of revenue collection, that man

South; if lie manifested disposition
10 support Fillmore q Webster, he
was an ''abe..:ior:s:. The support Of
Henry Clay was even al esuivocaI ofense,
and he occasional cooperation OF that
statesman with Van Buren,, Buchanan and
Douglas left him and his supporters in
the South under strong imputations Of in
civism as to their own section. This
monopoly and intolerance was carried into
the Confederacy. and the confessions
Of Dir. Foote, corrobo-ated by the records,
show that Mr.. Davis had surrounded him
self with politicians Of the same sentiment
as governed the South before the war.
Neither in bis councils nor diplomatic ap-
pointments abroad was the element that
had opposed Democracy recognized OF
equally represented in his administration.
though they were conspicuous in the
trials and privations of the battle fields.
All this has, however, been changed.
The telegraph. perhaps. made he frs:
inroads upon Democratic absolutism
in the South. It told how a: the
very. moment Democratic orator N
Alabama was inveighing agains:
tariff, even Cor revenue, and advocating
an immediate return to hard money. al
other Democratic orator was maintaining
in Pennsylvania the legality Ct a tax o..
imported iron and the policy Of dise,imi-
mating in favor Ct home made goods.
This, with similar contradictions, opened
the eyes Of the people and diminished
their faith in the political integrity OF
these acrobats. The rabid swallowing Of
Greeley, with his whole programme OF
isms and oddities. completed the popular
conviction, and now a proposal to throw
abroad the banner Of Democracy, North or
South, inspires the population wit salu.
tary suspicion, and they scrutinize with
great care that platform upon which they
have seen SO many transformation tricks.
They subject the actor who appears upon
it to an examination as minute as the
search Of the spirit rappers by the increi-
ulous peNns who attend their perform
arces
If the Times was aware Of this game.
which has so long gone on in the South
and North, and which mental reservation
has enabled the communicates to worship
the same political divinity with the most
opposite creeds Of practice. it would cease
to express surprise at that which, though
Few to its knowledge, has been played
out to the conviction Of mos: Others.
We hope its eyes are now open.

A praying costume is one of the latest
from Paris, and if one of these do not make
the women of fashion look like very angel
dressmakers must give it up and wait Tor
Gabriel. Religion, mayhap, must suffer-
but fashion can't do without her stralt-leced
sister. The attitude of prayer is found to
throw the back breadthS Of the skirt INTO
graceful prominence, and hence the neces
sity. which will be at once recognized by all
the truly good, of increased attention 10 the
earniture of frills and rich embroidery re-
quired by deeply religious attitude OF
