Is now. Unfortunately, since the adoption
of the one-term rule, under the biennial sys-

responsibility for official acts that obtained
under the former practice OF giving second

With this lack, there is also less acquain-

formerly. Some may doubt this, but We firmly

which Is the Reform Partyl

The entire capital Of the democratic party
ia this Presidential campaign consists Of
charges Of wholesale corruption on the part
of the Republican party, aud OF frauds per-
petrated by Republican officials. The cue
Is taken from the St Louis platform. and
the part is acted with great fidelity aud des-
reration. A complete answer 10 all this Is
just to remind these clacquers that under
eminent 10y defaulting officers, theft, fraud,
etc, amounted 10 ten dollars and thirty five
cents per thousand dollars; under Pierce's
administration. six dollars aud nisety-four
cents per Thousand dollars under Buchau-
ans administration, eight dollars aud sew
enty-seven cents.
Remember that these figures are from the
books Of the Treasury Department, brought
ont by resolution Of democratic House, in
the hope Of finding capital for use in the
Presidential campaign. Now compare the
above figures with the following, from the
same source, showing the losses under four
Republican administrations
Under l.incolns administration the losses
were two dollars and seven cents per thou
and dollars Lincolu's aud Iohnson's, one
dollar and eghty-six per thousand Grants

REPEAL on THE RESUMPTION ACT.-The
House, late Saturday afternoon, repealed the
clause of the resumption act which fixed a
time for resuming specie payments, and
thereby ended the struggle which has lasted
through the winter. The responsibility for
this triumph of the unqualified aud uncondi-
tional inilationists must be ascribed 10 Mr..
Tilden. 1t has long been known that one
word from him would have prevented any
report from the banking aud currency com
mittee, aud without such report the House
would not have been brought to a vote upon il.
That word was never spoken. Why it was
not can be learned from the intimate friends
OF Tilden in Washington, who say that the
'lilden letter and resumption act insure sew
eral western states TO Tilden. The first step
toward specie resumption has been rendered
nugatory by the direct approval Of Tilden
in the expectation of attracting the green
back vote TO the democratic party. An ex.
animation of the proceedings during the
passage of the repeal will show this. The
Republicans who voted for the repeal with
out conditions are insignificant in numbers
and influence. II was essentially demo
cratic vote by which the repeal was carried
A few hard money men in the democratic
party labored heroically to prevent the pas

This act, following Tilden's long letter
shows more fully than in any other way
how much the fair professions OF the dem
ocrats can be relied upon. The democracy

of a speedy return to specie payment,

nomination the Brooklyn Argus was good,

peace in 1861 Seymour for national honor
and Blair for new reconstruction system

said that the papers in this case had fol
lowed the course Of every similar petition, in
being referred by him TO the Attorney Gen
eral and from the Bureau of Justice TO the
District Attorney aud Judge at the city
where the trial took place. The President
said that such papers never came back To

Narrow Gauge Railroads.

Mssrs Editors Your paper states that most of
the stock is taken, and work will soon begin on the
Bethel and Rochester railroad, with gauge Of
three feet. That rich White River valley will be
fortunate in the building Of such road But it
may be that II the projectors Of it would examine
the whole subject farther, they would find that
they have money enough, and TO spare, for build
ing a road which would serve them just about a.
well, cost half rs much and therefore much more
profitable to it, stockholders Some bold prophet
think it safe Ia assert that the coming narrow
gauge ~ bc used ON branch lines very extensively
over the country, will be hco feet and not three
The question seems rather startling; but facts in
dictate that the subject merit. attention from
practical men
Such a road has been in operation for years IN
North Wales has carried thousands OF nassen-
gers and much freight, has never had an accident.
and Is the most profitable railroad known Ihaye
seen letter OF Nj Euh-long superintendent of
the Boston y Worcester railroad reporting his
critical examination of this Festnog railroad. and
his firm assurance of its safety and feasibility
In this country no public road has been built
bat Governor stark, OF Manchester has been using
such line to remove gravel across the Alerrimac,
to change the river bed, and found it very salts
factory, In favor OF such gauge, it is to be said
First it can be built and equipped for half the cost
Of the three-feet, and one-quarer Of the cost OF
the standard gauge. Six thousand dollars per
mile is the estimated cost Of such road, in aver
age location ready forseHice Hence second, it is
practicable where other gauge roads are not, and
holds ont the advantages of railroad communities
