The Address.

The address OF the National Republic

scathing review Of the record ofthe Dem

in the country, touches upon some of the
acts of the Republican party as follows:
INTERNAL REFORM.
The success which has attended the cff,ri'
Of this Administration TO effect internal re-
form i forcib, indicated. but only partially

cies of war. our rivals in popu Ar favor. a.
ha> been seen, repeatedly resoried TO loans IN

mitied at various times amounting to more
than hree hundred millions annusly.
Ihtrd. Ibe principal Of The pUhlir de ht has
been reduced in the same ti.Le by The sum Of

ciat~d from - 20 per cent, it. gold value in
