The Cause Of the Hard Times,

Judge Lawr ence, of Bellefontaine, in
a speech delivered at Trenton, Ohio,
showed that the Democratic policy Is
the cause of the hard times. He said
that it was his purpose to show that the
''timesr are not universally or even
generally '.hard !" that they are vastly
better than under any Democratic ad-
ministration +; that the Republican party
Is in no degree censurable tor any de-
rangemcnt of business which may exist;
that It results from causes which no
government could control; and that the
policy of the Republican party Is tho
only n that car secure to labor its
just rewards, bring prosperity to all our
industries, and make It permanent.
The Republican party came into pow
or on the 9Th Of March, 1861. A Dem
ocratic rebellion cost $4,000, 000, 900 OF
money and an ocean of blood. 1t dug
$50 900 loyal graves, and for four year.
took a million of men from industrial
pursuits. They engaged In the destruc
| ton of wealth. This alone was suffi
| cient to have made and kept "hart
times" during the whole period. Ye
u systems OF revenue and currenc,
have been SO wisely directed by Repub
lican policy, they have so protected ant
encouraged u industries. that on
population and wealth have alike grow
beyond the example Of any former pc
Rod OF this or any other country.

The amiable Peter Cooper. talking TO
a newspaper reporter about the green
back delusion, mentioned the case of the
people Of q town in the island of Guern-
sey, in the English Channel, who wan
ted to build q market house and who
had plenty of materials but no money.
Tho Government came to their relief
Legal tender notes were issued for
FL each, guaranteed by the Government,
and the market-houso given as security
for their redemption. The work was
completed. employment was given to
many worthy persons, a needed public
necessity was supplied, and in the
curse Of a few years the governor in
vited the inhabitants OF the town to
witness the burning ofthe legal tenders,
which had all been redeemed by the
rent of the market"
But Mr.. Cooper will not allow our le-
gal tender notes to be redeemed and
burnt. When he does that, his financial
doctrines will be as sound as those of
the governor and the people of Guern-
sey.-New York Evening Post.
