A SLUR ATLINCOLN.

The Augusta Consttulionalist, some
time since, noticing that movement had
been started at the Federal Capital, having
for its purpose the removal of the remains
of all our deceased Presidents to Mount
Vernon, to be re-interred in circle around
the tomb of Washington, closes with the
following remark. 81
1--WE would suggest as an amendment, that all
dead Presidents, since Buchanan's time, should have
a sessysts burial place. &. w. might not feel
comfortable in company with some of his latter
day succsssors.,
As Mr.. Lincoln was the only President
who had died since Buchanan when the
above dastardly paragraph was written,
1t is evident that it was intended for him.
1t is not so base however as some of Pills
bury's guardism of Mr.. Lincoln in
the Pennington Patriot. We copy it TO
show the spirit which animates democratic
papers now even while they profess 10 have
buried the past, and ask the republicans
tn do So '4i

The last senselaSs lie in the Commercial
is to the effect that soldiers are being
threatened by republicans, that they will
lose their pensions if they vote for Conner.
The only thing that soldiers need look up
on as threatening their pensions, is the
coming into power of the democratic
party with the ideas that are now enter
tanned by the moving spirits of that organ
zation. Should the Almighty, in his in
scrutable Providence, see fit to visit this
nation with such calamity, 1t would very
soon be apparent that pensions must either
be cut off from Union soldiers aoho fought
for The government, or also gicen to the
rebels aoho tried to destroy ii. The result,
as well as demand for compensation for
slaves, is just so surely in store for this
country, as that the democracy may be
given the power In our government. We
think the less that the Democratic leaders
stir up this matter of pensions. the better
showing they will make.-Denter Gazette.

4 COOP SHOWING.

The statement of the New York savings
banks, says the Herald. '.just made for
July 1, shows not only that these institu-
tons are in sound condition, holding
twenty millions more assets than they
owe. but what is of equal importance, the
gain in deposits in the last six months
since January is over twelve millions of
dollars. and the increase in the number of
depositors is thirtysix thousand. The
last feature is especially gratifying, for it
proves that the deposits are in the main
by people in moderate circumstances and
are really savings. The increase in the
deposits for the six months is the largest
since 1872. 1t is an excellent and en-
couraging showing"
This does not look much as though the
democratic accounts of beggary of the
people were true

y1o1-1Ty or STATE SOVEREIGNTY.

The republican party is unit In oppo-
sition to the dangerous doctrine OF State
Sovereignty, the evil Of which was expe-
rienced in the rebellion. The address Of
the Pennsylvania State committee after
their late State convention contained the
following truthful language in relation to
this doctrine.
There are many matters of detail in which the
republican party differs from the democratic; but
there is one radical difference which SO long as 1t
exists, will render the existence of the Republican
party q public necessity. The difference consists
in the fact that the republican party believes that
the United States form Nation with all the func-
tons of National Sovereignty, while the Demo-
cratic party regards the Federal Government as
mere leagne between the States, which are each
in its view sovereign and Independent. The re-
publicans believe in the indissolubillty OF the
States, whilst the democratic party believes fhdt
tie Federal Government has NO POWER TO protect
its ocn existence or PREVENT ANY SIAlE
from asserting its INDEPENDENCE. 49,
This ia difference which involves the very life
of the Government. When the rebellion broke
out in 1861 while James Buchanan was still in Of
fee as President, he shrank appalled, from the
duty of preserving the Union intact, and yielded
TO the advice Of the Attorney General that
there was no power in the general Governmen mt to
coercc State. Had that rebellion occurred at
the beginning, instead of the close of his admins
tration, 1T WOULD HAVE BEEN AT ONCE SUCCESS
Full. Under the democratic idea OF the State
rights, Mr.. Buchanan WOULD HAVE BEEN
COMPELLED to lei the Southern States 60.
With the prominence at present given by the
democratic party to its distinguishing doctrine
of State sovereignty, opposed to that of Nation
al sovereignty, the advent Of that party to power
in the nation would naturally bring with it the
danger Of a second assertion cfhe right Of States
to secede from the Union. Our previous expert
ence of the inability of the democratic party in
power to attempt the coercion of a rebellious
State should certainly be sufficient TO teach the
people the danger of entrusting the Government
10 hands too weak and too unwilling to protect it.
Should it ever become necessary, hereafter, to
assert the power of the General Government to
promote the public welfare, in any matter of con-
cern as for instance in preventing local restric-
ton upon the free transportation OF persons or
produce or in removing natural distractions there
to- the Democratic doctrine, faithfully adhered to,
,copld prerent that party from 1egis1afing upon 1t,
co1sgressionaliy. The National Government can
not. in fact, be carried on successfully, nor can
the necessities of people, with interests SO great
and so grand as those of the American people, BE
PROPERLY MET AND PROVIDED FOR BY
ANY PARTY HOLDING STRICTLY to the idea
that Government is buta federal league of SEPA-
RATE and INDEPENDENT State Sorere'gn-
ties.

development of its agricultural ana manufac-

facilities; the prohibition by law

uOrs and the enforcement Of

exercise of that rigid economy that admits OF
no outlay for purposes of doubtful utility, and

Some of the democratic editors are evil

the low-lived performances OF the chair
man of their State Committee, who runs
that slanderous and nasty sheet, the Maine

best they can to plaster over his work so

The following is the excellent letter of Ex.
Judge Kent to the Old Orchard Republican meet
ing.
Aug. 81, 1875.
GENTLEMEN; Your note of the Oath inst. did
not reach me until this morning. l much regret
that it will not be in my power to meet with the
republicans of the First District and enjoy with
them day devoted to the consideration of politi
cal duties and responsibilities.
joined the Republican party at its birth and
now, after all its mistakes, errors, shortcomings
with mistaken fidelity. For see, through all
these imperfections that it has done great work,
never losing sight of our abandoning the leading
purposes of its creation.
1t resisted effectualy the extension of slavery
into free territory. 1t met treason in arms and
saved the Union and the country by the ordeal
of battle. 1t dared to be just to all men and Sc
cured BY bold and instant measures the equal
rights of all men. 1t defended American citizen
ship, never before clearly declared, and spread
over all thus defined protection and security. 1t
incorporated into the constitution the declaration
and the fact that human slavery no longer exist
within the limits of tine Union. and thus made it q
national act beyond the reach Of state action. 1t
declared us nation, not mere confederation OF
States. 1t made the world understand our place.
And still it seems to me plain that it has work to
do in maintaining in faith and in acts, all these
great ideas and principles. Its mission will not
cease until every man, white or black, native or
naturalized, is secured permanently and unques-
tonably. without doubt or qualification, in the full
and perfect enjoyment Of his constitutional rights,
as defined in the amended constitution of the
United States of America, and all attempts under
the guse and pretense ofState sovereignty to avoid,
qualify nullify these protective provisions, are
abandoned.
do not forget the other great issues Of the day,
relating to finance, and the need of the men and
the doctrines of the republican party to place and
keep our currency on sure and safe basis. But
confess that to me these questions, although i'm
minently important when compared with those
have before mentioned appear something temper
airy and changing. The coming years, and fear
for long series will require the continuing and
constant vigilance, frmness and faithfulness,
through good and evil report, Of the republican
party, in defending and enforcing and saving the
great doctrines Of equality and the rights of man
of every man.
These great interests cannot afford to loose the
care and protection of this party created to main
tain them. intend to stand by it, with all IT'S
faults, so long it stands by them-as its guiding
star. Very truly,
Your fellow citizen,
EDWARD KENT.
