Answer Charges Already Made.

The Union Herald says that, in face
of all the great and good work which
the Legislature has done, it will not
tamoly submit to the charges of crime
and wrong which tho Tax-Payers' Con-
vention is likely to put forth concern
ing what it calls "our side of the house. "
What the Tax. Payers Convention will
do, in the way OF statement of the pre-
sent condition of things, their causes.
and the inevitable tendencies of the iu-
ture, no one has right to forecast to
it's prejudice. We expect it TO be Just
aud uonsi1eIute. Ine uuuusiun uemuuiis
no exaggeration. If the ;ndictm ent
shall eanal the offence. it will certainly
strongly tax the resources of the Eug-
lish language. Meanwhile, we suggest
to our contemporary to look little into
the publications made by Henry Ward
Beecher, Elihu Burritt, and other earn
eat Republicans OF the North, touching
abuses and the dangers which threaten
Republican government here. The
Herald is ready to protest and demur in
advance against the expected action Of
Conservatives, who feel the oppression
OF the State Government and the shame
of its corruptions. but it says never
word against the powerful arraign-
men: OF its party in the State by the re
spectacle MIR. like, late Minister to tho
Hague, in his remarkable book, "The
Prostrate State" Hero is reality
What have you to say about it? It is 9
work from Republican hand. It con
tains nothing but charges. Be so good
as to meet them.
