the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth,
in good faith. Their platform says,
Amendments universally adopted y
Now. it is well known that these amend
ments We're not universally adopted, only
thirty states having voted in favor OF
their adoption, and the Democracy have
claimed that they were not legally adopt
ed on the grounds that some of the states
whose Legislatures voted for their adop-
ton, subsequent Democratic Legislatures
voted to repeal the act of the former one,
while in others the Democratic Legisla-
lures refused to ratify the amendments,
but they were adopted by subsequent
Republican Legislatures. His address
was noticed for the candor of the argu.
ment and the thoroughness with which
the issues before the people were
handled.

GOVERNMENT EXPENSES.

There has been a great cry by tie
Democratic papers and speakers about
the enormous expenses of the Govern
ment under Republican administration,
bur they are very careful not to alluGe
to the causes which necessitates this vast
expenditure. LII relation to this matter
the Detroit Post says: mir. Tilden bold
ly charges in his letter of acceptance,
and those who advocate his election re-
peat it, that the expenditures of the Gov
eminent since the war have amounted to
four thousand five hundred million dol
lars. AS will be seen by the report of
the Assistant Treasurer: Mr.. Tilden is
one thousand millions of dollars. out of
the way. Of the amount expended, over
one thousand three hundred millions
were for the interest on the public debt
The annual expenses of the Govern
ment have been reduced from five humid
red and twenty millions in 1866 to two
hundred and fifty-eight millions i'm 1876.
Pensions have increased twelve millions;
Indian expenses nearly three millions,
and civil and miscellaneous expenses.
twenty-six millions. Of this latter it,
crease. nearly nine millions have been ex-
pended on account of the re-establish-
ment of the mail routes, postOffices.
courts. customs and lighthouses in the
southern states. Four and one-half mil
lions of the increase is for public works
Not only have the total expenditures
not been four thousand five hundred mil
lions, but the revenues themselves hive
been little less than four thousand mil
lions. There has been surplus of reve-
nue. over expenditure amounting to more
than six hundred millions, all of which
has been used i'm the reduction of the
public debt.
Federal taxation has been reduced
three hundred million dollars.
During eleven years previous to 1860
the annual expenses of The government
were increased eighty-nine per cent.
During the last three years of that period
the expenses exceeded the revenue near
ly sixty millions of dollars.

branch of the Democratic party hold the
supremacy in the party. Many of our
readers will doubtless recollect the
touching story, recited by James j
Brown at the Democratic meeting at the
Court House, of the applicant for official
position, who had sought, bled and
died. for his country, and who was told
Athat he had already done enough for
his country" Does it not seem from the
above that Mr.. Brown gave the correct
sentiment of the Democratic party, veri-
flying the old saying that s.Many truth
is told in jest" The poor, crippled sol
diers, in the estimation of the Democracy,
had already done enough for their coun-
try, and must give way to those whose
hands had been raised to strike down our
flag and destroy us as nation. In the
estimation of the Democracy, Rutherford
B. Hayes has done enough for his coun-
try. and they nominate man in oppo-
sition who cannot produce one act which
he done that would Indicate that he was
in favor of the preservation of the Union.
They were compelled by the dominant
branch of the party to put up such can
didate as would be pleasing to them, and
they did so in the nomination of Samuel
j. Tilden. Do the loyal citizens of the
country propose to have the Confeder-
ates control the affairs of the nations? If
SC, Samuel j. Tilden is their man; vote
for him. Everything tends to show that
having appealed to the sword and being
beaten in the contest, they now propose
with the aid of the Democracy of the
North to gain through the ballo. box
what they then lost. Counting on a
solid South, they expect to secure enough
northern votes to attain their object, but
the time has not yet come, nor never
will, when the citizens of the country
will be willing to give the control of the
nation to the Confederates.

The Michigan exhibit of education at
the Centennial is not so large or snowy
as similar exhibits from some other states
notably Pennsylvania, Massachusetts
and Indiana; but its intrinsic merit is
well commended. The Michigan Teach
er says: We hear it remarked that our
collection of examination papers COM
prises more original work than appears
i'll other exhibts-that is, the papers are
not copied, but are as they came from
the hands of the pupils in the first in
stance; and as such are highly creditable.
The state superintendent of New Jersey,
Prof. Apgar, himself an eminent teacher
and author in this branch, says the map
drawing from Michigan is equaled by no
other on the grounds except from his
own state. The Centennial judges me re-
ported to give the palm to Bay City, in
the school exhibit from this state.'

The more the position Of political -af-
fairs in Massachusetts just at present is
studied the more interesting it becomes.
Few even among the supporters of
Charles Francis Adams, believe that gen.
tleman will receive so many votes as Mr..
CASTOR would. Mr.. CASTOR has borne
the Democratic standard in victory and
in defeat, and, it is believed, could control
a much larger vote, to-day, than any
other man in his party. But Mr.. Tilden
gave up all hope of carrying Massachu-
sets, and he called for nomination that
would add strength to the party in the
nation rather than in the state. Mr.. Til
den dictated Mr.. Adams nomination to
the Massachusetts Democratic state con-
vention. The whole affair, if it shows
nothing else, exemplities Mr.. Tilden's
immense power in the councils of his
party. He is dictator to the Democrats
in all the states.
