thing like rhetoric or fustian-a very

THE OPPOSITION REVIEWED.

You have seen the shortcomings Of
that party in administration. It's faults
in opposition have beea still more glar-
inc. Perhaps they can be forgiven
for allowing the ship Of State to drift
so near the rocks. But how can they
be forgiven their struggles to prevent
her from being snatched from that
peril? That charity, which delights
to think no evil, may excuse their
omission to lift the country; upon the
plea of incompeteEey. But not char
ity itself can see anything but malig-
nancy in their persistent efforts to pre-
vent the country from being lifted
The world does not resent, but rather
pities, the helpless crew under whose
seamanship Jesus sailed for the country
Of the Gadarenes. 1t Is plain they
could not still the winds which threat
cned to sink the ship. But if they
had attempted to throw the Saviour
oFerboard when he appeared TO rebuke
those imp'ous winds, the World Wouid
have known no pity for the crew.
Ahd that is the great Democratic OF
Tense which still smells to heaven not
that thev did nothing for the country,
but that they fercely opposed every
thing that was done for the country.
1t wolld not be quite true to say that
the Democratic party opposed the ma
tioual effort to suppress the rebellion !;
