forgotten with Confeder-
ate sympathies are always willing to

any military Confederates are in the

ed with shame at their crime, they all.
parrot-liks, bewail the national distress
Of which they are part authors. and are
willing to confederate with the North
eru Democracy OF the Bourbon stripe
10 prolong financial troubles and des-
troy the public credit. Next TO the
suppression of the rebellion, the most
glorious achievement OF Republican
statesmanship was the establishment
and building mp Of national credit.
Every Confederate proposition has
been aimed at its destruction; and it
will need the united action OF Republi-
cans To preserve the national credit in
its integrity. This can be done only
by keeping on the statute book the
laws which the Republican House en-
acted, and which prepares the way for
resumption in 1879. The word has ac-
cepted Republican Legislation as n
pledge, guarantee OF the Nations
honor. And, indeed, where else could
the people look except to the Republ-
can party? The world, in no sense,
could trust the Democracy for their
connivance ut the rebellion on its out
break. II could not trnst the unrecon-
structed Confederate Democrats; for if
their patriotism was shown when they
fought TO rupture the Union OF the
States and hinder the cause Of freedom
and justice, what evidence could they
produce that they would not pursue
politically the accomplishment Of what
they had sought when beaten in the
field? This. then, is the true position.
The Republican pIrty is tae only party
the Nation aud the world can trust.
It's principles are those OF civilized
men everywhere. 1t upholds honor
between nations and between man and
man, aud will fulfill it's pledges; while
the Democratic party and the South
ern Democracy have history which
renders trust in them impossible, be.
cause they have failed TO exhibit any
other craftsmanship than what is Sec
tional and partisan as opposed to what
is demanded for the national welfare.

Ihe darlington tPa) bscai relates
the following: The room became so
crowded that il became necessary 10
procure more seats. There were chairs
slowed carefully away in the attic; one
OF the members went mp to hand them
down; the leader gave out the hymn.
Hold the Fort" The attic floor con-
sisted of the plasteriug which consti-
tuted the ceiling OF the room below, OF
which circumstance the chair-seeker
vas not aware. So, just as the choir
began the first stanza, down came one
leg OF the unfortunate chair-hunter.
The choir, however. did not notice the
circumstance. and went ON singing,
"Ho, my comrades, see the signal
waving in the air, reinforcements now
are coming" etc. just at this instant
the other leg appeared, and the singing
was drowned by the roaring laughter
Of the congregation.
