THE vlLTURES.
They VIII not scare, They Must be shot.

The Albany ArgHS, of 22d March, con
the conduct to be held 10y honest Re
publicans in the present crisis. 1t shows
the hollowncss and deceit of all the eff
forts ostensibly made by the present
Administration to investigate and re-
form. According to the well-known
and long established tactics of the Re.
publican party it has raised as high as
the clouds the flag of virtue over q house
prostituted to all manners Of vices and
crimes, and sent forth to the country
sOnorous words Of promise, when at the
same time its workings were sapping
the very foundation of the nations
honor. That party has condoned with
all the corruption Of its adherents and
even now it gives its support to an Ad-
ministration which is gnawing at the
very vitals of the country, as see the
endorsement of Grant, Belknap IL Co.
by the Republican party in New Hamp-
shire. In the present juncture, a vote cast
for such a party is vote in favor
OF the Administration, vote in favor Of
the Administrator Is q condoning Of it's
cOrruptions and deliberate blow aimed
at the heart OF the country. Let honest
and true Republicans (as we have no
doubt some there are think of this, and
pause ere they make a step further in
the dangerous path which their party
has been pursuing. We call their atten-
ton to the following paragraph which
the 4rgus entities ''The Vultures -
The Ereniag Journal thinks that Re
publicans can vote the Republican ticket
without having any sympathy with the
vulturcs that prey upon the Republican
party" Republicans know that the
vultures will continue to prey upon the
Republican party-or. upon the people
until beaten and driven off. And the
will laugh at the guls who think
to brighten them by tapping dull wings,
but exhibit no symptoms Of alarm. The
vultures will keep on preying, just as
long as Republicans keep on voting for
them, and every man who votes the Re
publican ticket casts vote in favor Of
the vultures. The Administration has
been greatly strengthened by the result
in New Hampshire. If the Republicans
could now carry Connecticut, the third
nomination of Grant would be rendered
! certainty. Vultures do not scare.
They must be shot.
