Declaration Of Principles
OF THE
INDEPENDENT PARTY

Our Government is founded solely upon the
consent of the people. and its powers are
subject to their control. The evils we now
live under have resulted from the acts Of
unfaithful representatives, who have set the
interest Of party above that of the people.
These evils are chiefly displayed in our none
tary system and the mOnopOles which it has
engendered this system being monarchical
in its principles and subversive of Republi-
can Government And as experience demon
strates that we can have no hope of reform
from existing political parties, it becomes our
imperative duty to organize a new party, to
the end that we may resist the encroach-
ments of the money power upon the rights of
the people, stay the tide of corruption and
extravaganza which overfiows the land, and
place the control Of the resources and finances
of the country in the hands of the people.
We therefore establish the Independent
party, and declare its principles to be as fol-
lows
l. II liz the duty of the Government tn
establish q monetary system based upon the
faith and resources of the nation, in harmony
with the genius of this Government and
adapted to the demands Of legitimate bust
ness. To this end the circulating notes Of all
National and State banks, as well as all local
currency, should be withdrawn from circula-
tion, and paper money issued by the Gov
eminent directly to the people without the in
Intervention Of any system Of banking corpora
tions, which money shall be "a legal tender in
payment Of all debts, public and private,
duties on imports included, Except that por-
tlon OF the interest and principal of the pres
ent Pabte debt that il, by the express terms
OF the Law creating 1t, made payable in me-
sAi,lc money; shall be &c paidl. This money
to be interchangeable, at the option of the
holders, with registered government bonds
bearing rate of interest not exceeding 4. az
per cent. per annum.
2. This system Of finance will, by stimu-
lating our industries and commerce. soon
make the United States the depository of the
precious metals Of the world.

Oh CuITGHCl lue DusiliCSS VI lllt country re-
quires The Democracy Of Ohio say the
people, who do the business, and are the
soyereigns. The institution of money is
conventional, and its establishment and
regulation sovereign prerogative. Why
should the people surrender this sovereign
power, which determines the distribution
~ their wealth t. the mere chance Of gold
production, or the vIcIssItudes of Euro
pean crops or politics, or the interests of
Incorporated money lenders The Money
Power does not distinctly deny the fitness
Of the people To make war or peace; to de-
termIne all questions of person or proper
ty; to regulate all the rights and duties of
man within the scope Of civil government;
but they demand that the people shall alb
dictate In their favor the sovereign power
Of controlling the money Of domestic com
merce on the insolent assumption that
they are, and the people are not, capable
Of regulating it.
The chatter about Confederate and Con-
tinental money and French assignats,
rags, etc, does not deserve serious an
swer. The Confederate and Continental
currency we're issued by Rebel Govern
ments, when their cause was desperate,
their people poor, and public loans i'm
practicable at home or sbroad-and when
excessive issues of notes were resorted to
as last resource of desr air. The French
assignats were based on the con6scated
property Of the Church and Nobility. and
lost all ,a.ue when the Revolution itselt
was overturned, and the conhscated prop
erty restored to its original owners. Onr
Republic is the firmest Government on
earth, regardful If public honor, with
credit at home and abroad, and nine-tenths
Of the people are property holders, with
the Conservative tendency which follows
the possession Of property Such q peo-
pie, under such circumstances, will not
run into Wild extravagance in this any
more than in any other policy Of govern
ment. They are used 60 power-have
used il .isely and honestly will use
it on this money question in spite OF the
contemptuous jeers Of the minions of the
money power.

FAST MAIL TRAINS.

Geo. S. Bangs, Superintendent OF the
United States Railway Mail Service, ar
rived here to-day from Boston and the
North, where he has been completing ar
to give Boston, Springfield,
Worcester and other prominent places in
Massachusetts, and other New England
States the benefit of direct connection by
a special fast-going train with the pro-
posed through mail train from New York
TO Chicago. The intention is TO run q
lightning train from Boston which will
connect at Albany at about 8 O'Clock in
the morning with the train which will
leave New York at O'Clock, 10 which
will be transferred all malls from Boston
and other intermediate cities for the
West This through mail train will
make its first trip on the 10th of Septem-
Der, unless the negotiations now in pro-
gress shall fail, in which event the new
service will begin on the first of October.
Well informed authorities here express
their conviction that The success Of tits
new enterprise will result in the estsb-
lishment Of similar system Of through
mails to New York by way OF Peunsyl-
vsuia Railroad, thus giving two daily
through mails from the great metropolis
TO the West. The latter through train
will leave New York in the evening, and
with ii connections will be made at Har-
ri.burg by trains from Philadelphis,
Washington and Baltimore. Il is proba-
bic that through registered letter pouches
will he put upon the routes between
Boston aud New Orleans, 90 az 10 meet
the requirements Of the leading Southern
points, sfer the msnner Of The tervice
between Boston and San Francisco. =

A KENTUCKY BRIDAL ToUR.

There came one day to little inland
town In Kentucky young rural couple
who bad just been bound by the "silken
bonds.p Their destination was the depot
aud the bridegroom was evidently quite
impatient for fear the train should arrive
before be could reach the Office. Buying
one ticket, they stood on the platform
until tho train had stopped. When they
entered tho car the bridegroom found bile
bride a seat, kissed her most aileclionate-
ly, bade her good bye" and going out,
seated himself on box aud commenced
whiting most vigorously, He watched
the train out OF sight, regret depicted on
bis face, when bystsnder, thinking the
whole proceeding rather strange, resolved
to interview him Approaching him care
lesslY, and chewing straw 10 keep up
bis courage, he said:
Been gettin' married latelyl
Yes, said he, me and SAllIe got splIced
this mornin'.
llkely lookin' gal, said our question:
er. Anybody sick, that she had TO 20
awayl
No; but here he became confidential.
You see me and Sallie heard that every.
body when they got married took bridal
tour. SO ! told Sallie hadn't money
enough for both Of US TO 70, but sho
shouldn't be knocked out Of hern. So
| jist brought her down here, bought ber
a ticket and sent her on visit 10 some Of
her folks, and thought might get soms
work barvestin' till she got back.
That afternoon found him busily 81
work, aud when In day or two after
Sallie came back, he welcomed her cor.
daily aud afiectionately and band In
hand they started down tic dusty road
to their new home and duties. - Courier
