AFRAUDULENT CLAIM.

The Democratic party asserts with con-
summate impudence and GOODNESS that it
should be put into power; that the Govern
ment, in all its branches and ranifcations,
should be turned over to the war making,
rebel sympathizing, aegro-hating pemoc-
racy. The assurance with which this is
done can only find its counterpart in the
demand fthe highwayman. 'fYour money
or your life |" For once during the last
sixteen years this party has had the oppor
tunity to show what it can do. 1t has the
House of Representatives, and has given to
the country eight months of experimental
craftsmanship and legislation. and what do
we sect Miserable, disgraceful, absolute
failure. There never has been, since we
haye been nation, so feeble, disgraceful
and shameless House of Representatives
as this present one of. the Forty fourth
Congress. There it stands IN all of its dire
ful ignominy. If it has done one good deed,
we fail to see it. and wish some friend of it
would point us to a single act which indi.
Gates redeeming quality. 1t investigated
and investigated, and the only N IN it found
guilty, aside from W. w. BelknaPP, was
George H. Pendleton, the the greatest criminal
and thief Of all. The Democratic party still
honors him, believes in him and recognizes
him as leader. What 1t left uDdone is
more significant Of failure than what it did,
as bad as its positive deeds are. When we
glance at its appropriation bills we see
an incongruous medley of couglomerated
nonsense, sbsurdity and inappropriate dis
posals Of money. 1t made an appropriation
for the Reform school for boys. There was
Just one sum devoted to specific purpose.
Not dollar appropriated for expenses; so
the managers cannot even buy a pound of
nails to keep in repair the fences. Every
body knows that the Congress did all it
dared do to destroy our school system. In
stead of giving US ten months Of school it
only provided for eight. Next year, should
this party be in power, it will only give US
six months. In the reconstruction of the
Southern States it was provided for popular
education, but In every instance where the
Democracy have got the power they have
purposely neglected to provide the means
for education Of the masses. Thus it is al
ways. Democracy thrives where ignorance
prevails. An enlightened community can
never be led by the Democracy. The lead
ers of the spoils Democracy know this full
well, and so they endeavor to keep the
masses ignorant. By intimidation, murder
and every conceivable plot of wickeduess
there is to be, so the leaders declare, q
united South. Let us, therefore, have q
united North, and we will teach these bar
barians q lesson. .4. -.

If THE CHARGES in regard TO the Demo
cratic onslaught intended against the
Treasury were untrue, we should long
ago have had full report of the facts. 1t
is well known that q number of these
claims are ready to be reported, but have
been laid over by advice and agreement,
and are to be taken up and passed early in
the session. 1t was part Of the "reform"
policy of the Democratic House to avoid
the payment of honest claims to show re-
duction in expenses until after the election.
Members OF the Claims Committee said
again and again that there were more than
q thousand claims before it. 1t would be
an edifying document, and we suggest the
publication of the amounts, residence and
character of the claims, number really to
be reported, &C., &c.

THE way they do it in Virginia is plainly
evidenced by the following enactment,
which still stands upon the statute books
of that State
CHAP. 7o.-An Act to provide for recording the
losses of property sustained by the operations
Of war, during the late war.
Passed January 20, 1865.
Be Il enacted By tie General Assembly, That
1t shall be the duty of the clerks OF the sew
eral county and corporation courts 10 keep a

quired to do by this act. AIry persons asLo

SENATOR BLAINE, in his speech at Gin
cinnati during the October campaign,
analyzed and left in scattered fragments
the political carcass of Charles Francis
Adams, the degenerate son of worthy
sire. Mr.. B. gave a complete history of
the conduct of Mr.. A. in 1860, showing
that he was willing for any sort of COM
promise; that he favored giving to single
slave State absolute power over the whole
United States, and that he was even will
ing under certain contingencies to favor
then demand for division. He declared
his course to be one of humiliation and
treason to the cause of human liberty, and
produced the facts to prove the charge. A
copious extract from this scathing indict-
ment was then printed in the Southern
Democratic papers without comment. The
purpose was evidently to let The South
know how truly loyal Adstns is to the
South, and how completely Northern
dough faced Democrats have toadied to
the South in nominating men who have
earned the right to their confidence by
their disloyalty to the Government and to
human rights.
National Republican., 1876-11-01

and o6er the same, proved by the affidavit OF
one or more citizens, to the clerk of the county
or corporation in which the said property was
taken, damaged or destroyed, who shall re-
ceiye ard record the same in book kept for
that purpose. The original papers shall be
safely kept by the clerk, but they may be
withdrawn at any time after they have been
recorded. The affidavits may be taken by
justice of the peace, notary public, or the
clerk of the court in which the papers are re-
corded. In all such cases the clerk shall have
the same fees, to be paid by the parties re-
spectiyely, as he has for similar services in
other cases, and in addition thereto twenty
five cents for taking affidavits.
2. This act shall be in force from its pas
sage.

tive State.

INTHE South the present campaign is
being fought for principle and the right to
live and be protected as free American cit
izens. In other words, the cardinal princi-
Piles of the Republican party are being
fought for and opposed in that section. Tue
issues Of the war are at stake there-:ssues
for which the blood of thousands of Union
soldiers was shed, and which should yet be
paramount in the minds of loyal men the

A PURE judiciary giving equal justice to

WHEN troops were sent pell nell by the
General Government, under direction Of
Democratic Presidents all over the coun-
try, for the return of fugitive slaves, there
was no complaint of Federal interference
from the Democratic press. Now. how
ever, that the slaves are free and troops
are legitimately used in protecting their
rights as freemen there is no end Of CON-
plsint and denunciatiOn.

WHILE some of the people Of the North
desire ga change" as they term it. and
are therefore inclined to vote for Tilden,
they forget that, according to precedent,
the change that would follow his success
would simply be repetition of the situa-

UNION men feel free to vote according to
the country's needs. What secessionist has

to manage him after the election.
