The indications are more than oidiuar,
lily bright for the National ticket. From
Indiana every dispatch and every letter
brings cheering news that the Democracy
will cary the State by large majority
From Ohio there are the same assurances
from New York the home of the Great
Reformer, seventy.ive thousand is the
very lowest that the Democratic majo'ity
is put down at. Georgia needs no reckoning
on, it is Democratic to the core, and with
Wade Hampton in the field in South Car
olina, there is not the least reason TO doubt
that the reign of the carpel-bagger is for
ever done there, and the people of this
honor able little State will be allowed once
more to have government by their own
people.

The deliberate 1alsehood Of Senator
Boutwell,, when he asserted at large meet
ing in New York that they did not want to
put down the rebellion in that State, has
received deserved rebuke from Ex-Gov.
Seymour. In speech delivered at Utica
New York, on Tuesday night, he said in
alluding to the speech Of Boutwell, "New
York furnished more troop' than
o,her States in proportion 10
lis population. This is shown
by the following tables. The average ratio
of enrollmentto the male population in the
Western States is 10 per cent. in New
Jersey, copper cent. in Pennsylvania, 1Sa
per cent. in the New England States it is
II per cent; in the State of New York it
is % per cent. Massachusetts,, with ten
Congressman and populatlonof ], ,23l :oO6,
has furnished, under the recent call for
100000 men, 1886. The first nine Con-
gressional Districts of the State of New
York, with a population Of 1,2l9,f49, are
called upon for 25,l56. The quota Of Ver-
mont and New Hampshire, with a united
population Of GAL III, and six Representa-
tivesin Congress and four Senators, is 1909.
The quota of two Congressional Districts
New York, the Fourth aud Sixth, with
population of 2s2,2 2,229, is 1928. Now, is it
not only true that New York furnished
larger proportion of men than ihe Repub-
lican States, but within the limits Of New
York the Democratic Congl lessional dis
tricts furnished large exoES beyond those
furnished by Republican districts"
The Morning herald., 1876-10-02

Or ALL the campaign falsehoods, which
form the entire stock in trade of the He-
publican party, none is more utterly base
less than the one that e1-Confederate SOL
diers have been given monopoly Of posi-
tions in the House of Representatives.
The lie has been repeated on every Re.
publican stump from Maine to Texas, and
by every Republican speaker from Blaine,
the arch corruptionist down 10 the most
insignificant cross-road spouter. The
whole story is the exact reverse of the
truth, and known to be an utter fabrication
by nearly every one who has made the
charge. The employees of the House are
232 in number, and of these only 2S ave
ex.confederate soldiers. The Union States
have IT'S positions, while only 81 are held
by persons from States engaged in the Re-
bellion, and of these 81 many were loyal
to the Union during the war. 81 Of the
old employees are retained, and the list in
cludes Is ce!ored men and St Union SOL
diers, of whom 10 were wounded in the
service. The number of Union soldiers
employed is exactly double the number of
Confederate soldiers, and the employees
from Union States are over three times as
great as those from Rebel States. The
Union soldiers employed by the Republ =
can House in the 43d Congress, numbered,
az far as can be ascer'ained, only SO, so
that the Democratic House has given EN-.
pleyment 10 more Union soldiers than the
Republican House which preceded it. In
other words the Democratic House ap-
pointed three Union Soldiers for every two
appolntsd " ~ Rspublicans.

A Delaware Day.
(From (he Milford New.s.)


At the Centennial Delaware Building, on
Thursday of last week, Chief Justice Come
gys was one of the many callers. The
proposition of having Delaware Day at
the Centennial was discussed between him
and the Superintendent, and 1t was finally
assented to by the former gentleman The
superintendent has at all times been anxious
to have it, and now, since it is 10 be, no
doubt heAvill give all the assistance in his
power to make the affair grand one for
our little State. No date was specified and
no preliminary arrangements made. No
time will be required for the latter beyond
mere days notice, as there will be no
demonstration of any kind. A reception
will be held at the Delaware Building by
Governor Cochran, as has been the custom
on State days with tue Governors.

The great National Republican party q
the ..atruly loil" are disposed 70 speak Q
it. and those who have lived on it for tn
past fifteen years are disposed to eulogis'
il, is fast declining from that height o
prominence and glorious reputation to {
level where it stood, before the circum
stances of war threw it into strong power
The purity of party is always its recon-
mendation for praise, its wisdom tht
strongest appeal to an untarnished ballo'
box, it is the fine quality of good govern
ment, which earns the support Of an un
purchased franchise, and the violation o
all these has broughtthe Republican party
dewn 10 contemptuous ridicule and scorn
with an American people.
This is recognized in tho abuse it has
made of the public service, the degrada-
ton of men who were advisers of the Ex-
ecutive, its prominent oficengowing down
before a searching public criticism, and yet
we find this party, one almost overburth-
ened with shame, holding Democrats to
strict account for any candidate they may
put in the field. 1t would be fair and
honorable compliance for the Democracy
if they had to meet the wishes and whims
of an opposing party with i1reproachable
men, but to have to be questioned by a
party, that has defled the government, as
to the men we eplace in innomination is rather
too much like answering the devil with
bows and graces.
The Presidential candidates Of the Dem
oclacy are men especially fitted for the
positions in which we would place them
both by virtue of unimpeachable personal
cha, ac.els, and the strict and exact apswe:
hey make to all the requirements OF W.
Iom. Such are the offerings that the De-
mocracy makes to the country, land that too
ia answer to party that comes with in
and shame a'rayed on its side.
In the declining power Of the Repub]i-
,cn party, its utter loss Of shame in the
general greed Of public officers, like all
other arguments that have lost in value, it
is sustained in force and untruth. 1t has
become the greatest source Of political de-
.raction, and of unmittigated falsehood.
1t gained the highest hope Of political am
bition, prostituted honorable duty to pei
sonal gain, its fall has been foretold, and
the crash is not far distant.
