THE following, says the New York World.
arc portion of The leading Republicans,
who, while in official position, held out their
bands for plumber and were tainted with
the Credit Mobil er fraud: Schuyler ColfsX,
ex-Speaker and ex Vice-Presldent; Henry
Wilson, present Vice-Pres dent of the
United States; Mr.. Dawes, Chairman of
the Committee of Ways and Means, and
yet knows so little about finance that he
Rad to ask Ames how to invest his money;
Mr.. G rfeid, Chairman Of the Appropria-
,icn Committee; Mr.. Bingham, Chairman
of Committee on Judiciary, DOW foreign
minister; Mr.. Scofeld, Chairman Of Naval
EfTArs; w. D. Kelley, leader of tie pro-
tec:ionis!s in Congress; Senator Patterson,
Chairman of the District of Columbia
Committee; Senator Harlan, Chairman of
Indian Affairs and editor of Administration
organ a. Washington; Senator Allison, of
Iowa; j. F. Wilson, Government Director
of the Pacific Railroad. All of these are
upheld and defended by the Republican
press. Wearing as they d. the Radical
collar about their Decks they are sustained
by the party.

THE Cincinnati Star pertinently says
that If the old Democratic party is thor
oughly dead IS the Republican politicians
and the Chicago Times say it is, it follows
that the party now calling itself Democrat
ic is q new Democratic party-just what
those who profess to be dissatisfied with the
old party have been signing for.

Gould there BE- greater indications of vitality {?
In 1872, when hundreds and thousands of
Democrats refused 70 participate iu the
election, 1t showed an increase of 25,000-
over the yo' E at any pre- tious election. A
constant and steady growth that betokens
future SUCCESS. II is little curious to ex-

FIN lS60 the vote of the Southern Democracy
was cast for Breckenridge.
tShows falling Off Of only 29,4i1 from the
vote, notwithstanding the vote of twelve South
ern States was not cast at all, as compared
with the largest vote, even, cast by the Democ-
racy.
"Th1se figures gave no cause for 6espond
ency, or even for the discussion of the
abandonment # the Democratic banner,
or the organization of the new party. The
figures themselves only give evidence that
the Democratic party will be returned to
power, when the people have had time for
a sober second thought; when eason, not
PASSION, shall control their actions. Hun
dreds of thousands OF good men have been
enstrangea from the ranks of the party by
senseless cries, and it may be few from
moral cowardice, when bayonets ruled and
not the ballet. Thank God, that hour is
passing away, and soon men VI i'll be released
from the bondage of fear, their eyes will be
opened to the enormities practiced by the
present ruling party, and they will once
more stand in the ranks of tie Democracy,
battling for the maintenance of genuine
Republic2nism. sa
"If defeat demanded the disbandonment
ofthe Democratic party, then it should have
dissolved after the second election Of Mr..
Lincoln. since that time it as gradually
been closing up III its broken columns,
while The ranks have been recruited from
among those who deserted under false sp-
prehensions. Stronger than at any time in
its history, 1t is yet prepared TO give battle |
under its old leaders, who will rally the last |
man in the great battle which Is yet to be |
fought FIR The maintenance Of civil liberty |
in his land of the free. II we shall keep |
ourselves al0of from entangliug alliances,
repudiate the fallacy of changing trout in
the presence of serTied columns of the cor
ruptiOnists, victory is certain. We are coz
fident that the masses of the Democracy
will repudiate the movement which looks
to the overthrow and obliteration of their
party, and place their feet upon those who
propose the disgraeeful surrender"

Mr.. PARTON has Sn article in the At,dl-
tic Monthly fer September on Thomas
Jefferson, In which he says: "The last two
years of Mr.. Jeffsrs MS second term were
Iaborious and troubled; and the old longing
for home, rest and tranquility gained full
possession Of him. The precedent of retir-
ing at the end of eight years had not then
acquired The force of law, and he could I'M
questionably have been elected to a third
term. But eight years Of the Presidency is
enough for any man. Gen. Washington
Himself in eight years exhausted bis power
10 render good service in that Office; and
J,fferson never for moment had thought
but to retire at The end of his second term."
With them the holding the Office was
matter OF labor, bat with Grant it is simply
a round of pleasure and recreation; hence
he is perfectly wiling to take the place for
third time, and as much oftener as he can
get it.

DR. YoUNG, Chief Of the Bureau of Sta
tistics, at WASHINGTON, is endeavori ng to
getreports from all parts Of Europe in re-
gard to the rates of wages and cost of llv-
ing. His purpose is to compare the condi,
lion of the !aboring population abroad with
that of the same class in the United States.
The Baltimore Gazette has no doubt he
will attempt to prove that high protective
tfr.ff is singularly beneficial to the working
classes, just as DR.. Elder proved that "a
public debt is public blessing" But such
falacies are not as popular as they once
were. The Western farmers were firm
believers in the truth of DIR. Elders propo-
si;ion so long as produce ruled high and
greenbacks were plentiful. They have dis
covered III. ir error since, and we doubt at
this time whether DR.. Young can easily
satisfy the king classes that the en-.
couragement Of monopalies is ; good thing.

THE Cleveland Herald is not one of those
Republican journals that treat very lightly
t acton of the recent Dem 5cratic, State
Convention Of Ohio. That paper says:
sWe tell our Republican friends that the
nomination of Bin Allen is no joke. There
is to be no boys play this campaign. The
Demoeratic patty is stronger to-day than it
has been in Ohio for many years. The
courage OF that party has revived, and it
will go into The contest resolved to deserve
success, even il it do not win a victory.
Republicans must open their eyes, and they
must appreciate the gravity of the occasion,
for victory oyer, othe Democrats this fall
will be harder job tTan any victory we
ever won over the confederate force of sick

IT is stated as a remarkable fact that
last winter, two bills were introduced in
the illinois Legislature, one in The HOUSE
and one in the Senate, providing for the re-
peal of an existing law in that State which
limits the liability Of any railroad company
for killing person or passenger to 5000.
Both bills were, however, defeated through
the exertioDs Of the Chicago and Alton
Railroad Company, on whose line terri
BILE accident occurred few Gays ago,
through the criminal carelessness of en-
ployeson one Ct the eolIidiDg trains, by
which fifteen persons lost their lives.

enjoys, in which he can conspicuously exhibit
his powers of blackguardism. 1t makes talk
and gives him notoriety, and that seems to be
his ambition. AS for Mr.. Fay it is not clear
that he deserves sympathy or commiseration.
Having come to the years of discretion
he should know the consequences of fooilng
round Mr. Butler with petty charges, when the
whole life and character of the man as po-
ltical charlatal are so well known and fur
nish such an unanswerable argument with
decent people against his promotion. There is
no need to search Mr.. Buffers private life
for arguments against his elevation to
any representative position. HIS public
record, his associations, his whole political
atmosphere and moral--Or lack of moral
tone cry out against him. He is not man
in whom anybody believes. Perhaps Mr.. Fay
thinks it is necessary to bring against him
specific charges of drunkenness and like
ofIepses to furnish tangible ground
for opposing his nomination, notwithstanding
his reputation. But it occurs to us that il
there is danger of his nomination in the face
of all that is known of him by the people of
Massachusetts, it is idle to undertake TO prove
specific offenses against him. Nothing of that
kind that can be brought up is half so bad as
his general character.

We invite attention to this contest as one

On one side are party machinery, suDsidlzeu
