IT is remarkable fact, Mr.. Presi-
dent, and may as well put it in here,
as this is political discussion, that
there is not a single position taken
by the Democratic party for the last
thirty years on which they now dare
to make stand and defend it. You
may look over the whole political
arena and you will find it to be so.
l say when you contrast the posi-
tion of these two great parties, what
they have done, what they have pro-
posed, where they stand, the contrast
may be drawn by any intelligent
man. 1 say the Democratic party
has been compelled to abandon and
recede from every position it has ia
ken, and it will not now in this can
vass, in which it seeks again to come
into power, stand upon any position
it has taken for the last thirty years.
Mr.. Sherman IN the Senate.
Ah, but if they should happen to
get into power, Mr.. Sherman, you
would see change. They would
then get on to their State Rights
horse and ride him rough shod over
the country. They are obliged to
give up every principle Of their past
life now, for their principles are in
disgrace; but whitewash does not
change the spots of the leopard. We
should see the old animal soon
enough if fair opportunity were
given for his display.--Cincinnati

Mr.. F. A. Rathburn, "the bachelor
of the village" did a very generous
deed ON Saturday last. Although
sevcnty-six years of age, he person
ally assisted, old as he was, with the
temperature at ninety, in hauling and
moving away in the barn some five
tons OF hay, for some ladies who had
no "men folks" on the premises.
True, they were little related, but it
made no difference. 1t was philan-
thropic act, worthy of all commenda-
tion, and should be often repeated.

Only Gold,

The following is a true copy of 8
law passed by the democratic legis.
lature of N. Y, and which bears the
signature of approval of SAMUEL j.
TILDEN:
"Section l. All taxes levied and
confirmed in this State on and after
Jan. 1, 1879, shall be collected in
gold, United States gold certificates,
or national bank-notes which are re-
deemable in gold on demand.
Sec. 2. Every contract made or
implied, and payable within this
State, and made or implied after
Jan. l, 1879, and payable in dollars,
but not in specified kind of dollars,
shall be payable in United States
coin Of the standard of weight and
fineness established by the laws of
the United States at the time the
contract or obligation shall have
been made or implied"
Merchants will understand that
all debts due in New York after Jan.
l, 1879, shall be paid in GOLD.
That is the way Tilden has of put
ting his foot down on Ohio Green
hackers.

One leading Democrat of Middle
port refuses to eat crow. We refer to
our good friend, j. w. G. Simmons,
Esq. He was the first and foremost
among the active Democrats of this
vicinity last Fall; and to him, more
than any one else, are the Democrats
indebted for the little gain they made
hereabouts. His establishment was
Democratic headquarters, and he
did the brain-work for the organiza-
tion while others executed his plans.
He was and is emphatically q green
back, imitation Democrat. He be-
lieved the Democracy were sincere in
their advocacy of more money for the
people; and now that they have
trampled that doctrine under foot, in
National Convention, and nominated a
New York money shark, worth 81, 900,
600, for President, Mr. Simmons re-
fuses longer to muster with the par
ty. There are other Democrats who
hold the same views in regard to Til
den, but they are not so out spoken.
All honor to Mr.. Simmons for his ad-
herence to principle.--Middlepor

The people must reform local poll
tics, before they can expect reform in
National politics. Look at the Demo
cratic party in this Congressional
District. They have one set of prin-
ciples for their candidate for Con-
gress, and another for their candi-
date for President. VANCE is placed
on soft-money, anti-resumption plat
form, while Tilden is placed on a
hard-money, resumption platform.
Let us first reform the Democratic
party in the Eleventh District, and
that will give us a good start toward
reform in higher places.

A "UNITED SOUTH" for Tilden, is
the toast of the democrats. Why
united? What is there in Tilden
that he should have the "united vote
of the South? 1t must mean some
thing. There must be a censidera-
tion. What is it? Are the negroes
to be re-enslaved, or are they to be
paid for? Is the Confederate money
to be redeemed, the Confederate
bonds paid, or Confederate soldiers
pensioned2 What is the considera-
ton? The South is not going to vote
unitedly for Tilden for nothing.
Her public men are too sharp to be
mere hewers of wood and drawers of
water to the Wall street bondholders.
They expect something; have, no
doubt, been promised something.
We repeat, what is it?

GEN. DIX was one of that class OF
Democrats, who, when the Nation
was assailed by treason, thought
more of his country than of party,
and took service in behalf of liberty
and unity. He watched the course
Of the leading men of the country in
that hour of peril, and this is what
he says of Tilden:
"It will enable us to demonstrate
by indisputable facts that the gov
ernment, for the chief office in which
he (Tilden) has been nominated,
would not now exist if his example
during the rebellion had been fol
lowed by his countrymen."
Tilden had no kind word of en-
couragement for the soldier in that
death struggle, and soldiers should
have no votes for him now.
