Mr.. Leopold Morse has accepted the Democratic
nomination for Congress in the lNth Massachusetts
District in letter beautifully calculated for the lat
itude of that district For Mr.. Leopold Morse as
snres the Boston voters that If they will only give
him chance he will make their city more pros
porous than ever He will bring in a bill or do
something to promote a treaty OF reciprocity wlth
the Dominion of Canada which will bring business
direct to Boston" Mr. Morse says also that he
"rccomIzes the heavy responsibility of the office"
We fear that hc does not, or he would be little
more chary of his promises. However, he only fol-
lows the lead of his party, which is promising all
over the country amillennium of meat and drink III
the event of Gov. Tildcn's election; though some
how the people do not seem hungry enough TO swal-
low the bait. Mr.. Leopold Morse remarks in his
letter that lac is not ambitions for public Office
That kind of candidate seems to be very plentiful
in the Democratic ranks this year everywhere, and
especially in Massachusetts, these modest souls
are little likely to have their feelings hurt by being
oyer-elcctcd to anything.

The honest effort made by some to ignore the Re
beOn during the present canvass has proved
failure, while the Democratic party, if it finds to
its chagrn the canvass turning upon the Old issues
has only It's own brags about solid South to
thank for it. Things having taken such turn, we
are not surprised to find employed in some quarters
as a campaign document, thoroughly partisan
"Hisory of the United Statcs' which is said to be
used as n textbook in Virginia and other Southern
schools. The aIimus and dishonest character of
this book may be surmised from the fact that 1t
speaks of Col. Ellsworth aS "a famous rough and
circns-rider of Chicago" We arc told that " the
sympathy of Cbrstendom was excited for the
SOUTH Of President Lincoln it is shamefully sad
Elected during the period Of intense partisan
rancor, he joined to his political opinions the
prcjudices of his party" He is called 1.-THE sec
tional Presdent;r the war is called "a sectional
war;" while Jefferson Davis is exhibited as n states
man at once "sagaciOus, earnest, and moderate"
We must add that all the stories of the battles are
narrated from the Confederate side. Such work
rs this would not be worth mention if It were not
textbook, designed for the use of schools. Its
writing, printing. publication, and approval by
school authorities are signs of the times which Just
now are well worth observing.

ton to the Presidency However pleasant this may
have been to him TO listen to- 1t rather foolish
thing for Mr.. Stockton of New-Jersey to say we
believe he has said it elsewhere, and he evidently
thinks it to be a rst-rate piece of scare. lie may
rest assured however, that he Overestimaes the ei
cacy of such outrageous nonsense, and II he has
nothing better to offer to the consideration OF free
and enlightened people he had better stay at home
and attend to his business, if he has any, For our
own part, we propose to be franker. Considering
that the Republic weathered the storm of the Re
bcllon, its suffering and waste and deadly peril and
considering that we have since stood nearly four
years Of Andrew Johnson and eight years of Grant,
do not think that the return of the Democratic
party to power would prove altogether fatal to our
institutions but we do think that it might subject
them to something of the strain, in kind If not
in degree Yet at the very hight of the catastrophe
with the South once eXultant, and Its leaders
marching to the music of 4" Dixie" up Pennsylvania
ave. to call with their congratulations upon Uncle
Samuel we should not be half so frightened as the
ex-senator appears to be at the mere prospect OF
another Republican President We think that we
could live through it sure that the Republic
could and it is possible that Mr.. Stockton would
also live through it like a lord.

The Canal Ring is solid for Tilden. There
was doubt of only one section of it. In Roch-
ester, Jarvis Lord had given to lilden bar
becue an OK that was to symbolic the Demo-
cratic promise of beef and better times, which
it did to turn-turnlng out badly In the
roasting; i'll Syracuse the same Democrats who
bolted out of the State Convention year ago
because they had mot been elected delegates
" to Tilden ratification meeting" had been
organizing and heading just such demOnstra-
tons within the past few weeks but in Os-
wegO there was a bitter and powerful faction
whose course seemed i'll doubt. 1t is so no
longer A letter from a staff correspondent,
printed elsewhere, reports that, within fort
night and after sundry visits to this city, the
Democrats of OswegO have rallied to the sup
port of the man upon whom a year ago they
were expending the choicest epithets of the
tow-path The moral of it7 Well, the moral
of it is that they think they sec spoils ahead.
1t is not too soon to remind Republican
voters now visiting the Philadelphia Exhibl-
ton that their presence at their homes on
election day is an imperative duty. For the
first time in many years they encounter III the
Presidential election an opposition generated
with consummate skill, well supplied with the
sincws of war, and eager for the pillaglng that
may follow the battle. Both parties need
every vote. The Democracy has already
sounded the call to Its truant voters, ana the
Republicans should not be behind. In Con-
neeticut which is very close, and where the
Republicans are making Il gallant fight the
voters who are now lingering mt the ENMbl-
ton might turn the scale The same Is true
of Indiana and New-Jcrscy. Every ONO voter
ought to make the size of Gov. HaycSS ma
iolity in that State a matter OF personal
pride. and if necessary, of personal sacr-
flee. and in New-Nolk every Republican vote
lost is Democratic vote gained where every
vote is important. No earnest Republican Will
lose the chance to cancel one vote Tor lllden.

At Democratic mass meeting in Berks County
PENN last week the attractions were: l. Gen. Nc
Kcllan. with a speech; . An elephant borrowed
from u menagerie with red-topped boots on; and -
a barbecue of two roasted bualoes. Gen. Mcclellan
said he was in favor of reform; the elephant waved
his trunk appIovingly; and then the enthusiastic
hut hungry crowd demolished the butfalocs. We
cannot SAY how much we approve Of this style Of do
inc things. A buffalo on the fork $50 to speak, is
worth q great deal moro than the roast beef which
everybody is to have if Gov. Tilden is elected; and
the noble expcdient of borrowing an elephant to
grace n political procession deserves success as
mere matter of ingenious novelty.

GOV. Boutwell,. who is given to cipherinc. made a
rather startling statement IN a speech in Massachu-
sctts the other night. He said Louisiana has a
Republican majority of 10000 Mississippi a Re
publican majority Of $4,000; Alabama Repub-
lcan majority of 5000; south Carolina Repub-
lcan majority of 10000; Florida a Republican ma
jorty Of 1000 or 5000; but every one OF these
STATES will cast an electoral vote for Tilden." This,
said Gov Boutwell,, is an attempt " to capture the
Government by fraud and force Given free vote
in the sixteen States of the South and Gov.
Hlden would have no chance of his election" II
these statements are true or only partially true. we
do not sre how any citizen, who cares y thought
either for purity of the ballot-boX or the pcrpcuty
and prosperity of the Union, can help forward even
by his one vote this outrageous conspiracy against
Uncommon veal.
