What. then. has been the record Of Mr..
Tilden IN respect to the issues which
will be presented to the people of this
country Of the course Of the pending can
vass? What was his position in 1860
touching the fundamental doctrine upon
which the battles for the Union were
fought, the perpetual unity OF the nation,
for which on our side so many hundred
thousands Of men shed their blood or
laid down their lives? Was Mr.. Tilden
in harmony with the Union sentiment of
the country? Was he in harmony with
the sentiment Of the country which sus-
tanned the war? Did be urge the peo-
pie to sustain the Union? Did he urge
the filling Of our armies =? Did he Gen.
sure the succession movement out Of which
the war grew? Is he anywhere or any.

UNION SOLDIERS TO rae REAR.

The organization Of the present House
Of Representatives at Washington was
marked by many changes Of persons EN-
ployed at the Capitol An examination
of the table shows that there were dis
charged from the Doorkeeper's depart
ment % Union soldiers from the Clerks
Office 70 Union soldiers, from the Post
Office Is Union soldiers; from the Cap
itol police ?: making 81 Union soldiers
ischarged by the Democratic House
since its organization last December.
A number Of these soldiers were disabled
in the service.
There were appointed in their places,
as far as can be aseertained, in the Door
keepers department 10 COnfederates !;
in the Clerks office 10; in the Post
Office IA; Capitol police and 8 Com
mittee clerks; making ~ Confederate
soldiers appointed. The names Of many
of the employees of the present House.
such as extra messengers. folders and
extra committee clerks, cannot be ascer-
tanned. for the reason that they are paid
upon vouchers instead of regular roll.
A great number Of these extra employees
are ex -Confederates, and if the facts
could be aseertained in. all cases the
number of ex-Confederate soldiers APP
pointed would be found to exceed the
number of Union soldiers discharged.
The Post Office rolls show the most
wanton disregard by the Confederate
House of the obligations of the Govern
ment to its disabled soldiers, were near
ly every man discharged served in th'
Union army, and with two exceptions
every man appointed was Confederate.
