THE VOICE OF THE PRESS.

The Cincinnati Enquirer Of theG4th inst
thus joyfully exclaims:
How magnificent the Democratic banne
floats in the breeze upon this bright, this hap

What can excel in eloquence those lines Q

they afford any thing that is attainable il

whelming disaster. 1t is the Gravelotte that
precedes the Sedan. The people demand
more money and less tariff-less taxation and
more money. They demand an immediate
cessation of the brutal military tyranny over
the South. The iron heel Of the despot must
be let up from the necks of PROSTATE peo-
rle, upon whom it tramples in the wantonness
of power and in the malevolence OF revenge.
The privileged and pampered classes, who
have thrived and grown fat upon the earnings
of industry, which they have despoiled, must

ders Of public rebuke from Maine to Texas.
Once more may we hope for the revival Of the

this Union were all indeed brethren-when
the shadow of the soldier and of martial law
shall disappear beneath the recollections of
s0rrOwfio past. Once more let us hope that
when we have full Democratic success the
wheels of industry, which have been SO clogged,
will be set in motion-when capital will be no
longer idle and the laborer unemployed, and
when with gladness We may hold the centen-
nial of our independence as jubilee even be-
yond that which it commentaries.
This glorious result will send thrills of Joy
to the hearts OF ten million OF Southern
people, our kinsmen and our countrymen.
This, indeed, will be day Of heartfelt glad
ness from Delaware to the Rio Grande. This
victory of the Democracy and their allies in
the North will do more to "recOnstruct" the
South than all Radicalism could do in hun
dred years. The Southern people will now
begin to think that they again live in the
United States, and that they have a voice in
their government.
The st. Louis Republican says:
Like all organizations buiided upon fraud
and falsehood the Republican party's down
fall has been sudden and crushing. 1t has
stood for years an immense hollow shell, |
needing but the punching of few holes
in it to crumble into fragments. 1t is not |
too much to assume that the Republican |
party of yesterday; the party of salary |
grabs and Credit Mobiliers and press
gags; the party Of bribery and forgery and
perjury; the party Of dragonnades and /
midnight raids upon defenceless citizens;
house rings; the party of Sanborn moiety
'swindles and Jayne customs revenue
black-mailings; the party Of monopolies
and subsidies and land grants and grabs;
the party of Butler, OF Cameron, of Chandler,
of Williams. of Pomeroy, of Harlan Of Pat
terson, of Hipple-Mitchell, of Poland and of
Carpenter; in fine tie party of all imaginable
Chen and things that are infamous and odious;
it is not too much to assume that this Repub-
lican party never can be resuscitated as con- !
trolling power in American politics. The
Republican party will follow its old prototype, ,
the Federalist party, into historical infamy. !
Its name will become a synonym of every !
thing that should be stunned in political life {
md banished from political affairs. The
men who, like Blaine and Morton and {
COnkling staked their personal ambitions 3
npon its perpetuity and chung to it even
while it was going to pieces, will sink with it 9
into places where oblivion viii be kindlier {
han memory. As for the lower and meaner l
brood Of the Buffers and their kind the ken
lel-keepers and whippers-in of the party's t
:urs and spaniels, they are too dead to char 9
Icterize. The time is one for genuine rejcic-
ng. 1t is suspicious OF better, purer and t
happier era. 1t gives assurance that the Great d
Republic will enter upon its second century of \
existence with a new lease Of life, before t
which all the shadows of centralism, despot- n
SIN and, it must be said, even possible mon z
rchy, must vanish, never again to cloud the 4
uture in our time. o
