will be effected in few days.

Opinions of the PreSs.

It ia not little amusing to read some
Of the Opinions of the Press" since the
election. It is true that it is serious
subject-and no laughing matter by any
means, considering tho fact that this
party had plunged the country into SO
many thousands of millions Of debt and
nearly destroyed one whole section Of
the country. But we know Of no means
now of remedying the evil. Still it
seems to us that "the Press" has shown
itself to have been the engine of mis-
chief-blinding the people to their real
interests instead Of enlightening them
and leading them by the lamp of history
that had lighted up the past century
strewn so thick with evils from recent
war. Unfortunately the mailed hand
s,izes all that is valuable, and holding
the sword and the purse, buys up with
one and batters down with the other.
But we cannot withhold the remark
tlat we should blush with shame were
we required to make such admissions as
our opponents have done since the elec-
ton. There never was hotter contest
when it became the Democratic editors
to exert every effort of mind and body to
oppose, contradict, charge and defeat
the wealthy, purse proud and influential
journals on the other side. From the
New York Herald to tho smallest self
styled Independent" organ, in addition
to the tremendous power Of the regular
Administration journals, aided in theil
circulation by all the thousands of post
masters, mail agents and carriers afoo
IN the cities. 1t has been hard work TO
the Democratic Press and their reward
has been ight-perhaps many arc onl.
repaid in the fact of the knowledge tina
they had been doing good work fo
country in laboring to defeat part.
that is now denounced most terribly il
the opinions of those who only last weel
sought to uphold it with all the ingenui
ty of brain, muscle and machinery. w
cannot withhold giving utterance to tn
opinion now that our adversaries all owe
the country had sold themselves in som
shape-just as the Times and other grea
journals of New York had sold them
selves to Tweed and his Republican &C

squandered precious political inherit
ance. His political career ia closed, let
him make 4 good personal one. The
third term was too great burden for
Dix. The election is not merely VIC
tory, but n revolution.
From N. Y Tribune, IndJ
The only two great questions before the
people-whether Grantism deserves the
public confidence and whether it be per-
petuated-have been loudly answered in
the negative. 1t is protest of citizens,
not political victory. The parties are
left evenly matched-tbc future belongs
to the one who shall earn it.!
From the Harrisburg Patriot, (Dem)
The limit of endurance has been reach

shackles and strike down its plunderers.
y The victory in this
State should not be belittled.

men in office, of which Massachusetts, Is
an example.

That Is So.
"IT HAD become pEsPoTIc. "

The Baltimore American, one of the
most truly loyal" sheets, hits the nail
fairly on the head, in its article assign
ing causes for the great moral and po-
litical victory the Democratic party
has just achieved. 1t says that the
Republican party had become despotic and
needed little correcting"
That is SO. But why did not the
American and its contemporaries join
the Democratic press in the denuncia-
tion of party that chad become des-
potic ?" Out of its own mouth comes
its own accusation and its own condem-
nation. Why did the American sus-
tain party in opposition to its Demo
cratic contemporaries that "HAD BE
COME DEsPoTIc ~ Can anything be
more Objectionable to the American
people that a government that is ''des-
poticf ?" Can thing be republican
and at the same time DEsPorIc ? We
think not. And yet we have a great
party bearing the high sounding name
"REPUBL1CAN" that its own chiet
organs now say is DESPOTIC.' y
Who is at the head of this great party
Why a man that has gloated in human
gore-the best blood of the American
people. That party of blood-that part,
of plunder-gorged with blood ant
booty it is now declared has becom,
'despotic.
Here is just where the Democrat
