Democratic Defalcations and Corruptions.
NUMBER ONE.

Editors Tazzey Virgiaiaas AS the invest-
CATION of Republican corruption seems the or
der of the day with the Democracy in Con-
gress, propose to revive certain "reminiscences
of Democratic shortcomings, which will dem
onstrate that Democratic administrations have
been, in times of yore, as deeply in the mud
us the Republicans ever can be in the mire.
The only, and the vital difference is, that
Democratic delinquency is matter Of adjudica-
ton and record, undisp,aed and indisputabe,
while pTeof has yet to be made against the
Republicans.
