That the radicals are aware OF the near ap.
proach of the loss of their grasp upon the
treasury of the country is becoming more and
more apparent. The late instructions issued
by the Attorney General are proof as strong as
holy writ of the dread III y feel Of expulsion
from their we'll teathered nests, aud of the des-
perate strai's to which they are reduced 10
order to prevent that consunmation so devout,
ly to be wished by all lovers of peaceful,
uuited, prosperous and happy country. But
the surest indication that they have read and
correctly interpreted the hand writing upon
the wall is to be found 10 the speech of Senator
Boutwell,, published 10 yesterdays Gazette.
Senator Boutwell, is one of the astutest and
most observaut leaders Of the radical party.
He always keeps 40 eye to windward, invarl-
ably watches the main chanca, and can read
the political sky with as much certainty as any
other man in the country. He sees plainly
That if the decision Of the question be left to
the peope-the arbit rs whose judgment is
formed from the actual experience of the good
or bad effects of government-the days of rad
icaI misrue and corruption are numbered; and
as the only possible means by which his party
can retain their cootrol of the oatiop's affairs
he suggests revolution. and prepares the North
ern miod for that last resort by the following
words:
III, then, Gov. TiIden is declared President
by the two Houses Of Congress 10 february
next, his advancement will be due 10 a usurpa
ton as INSCRIPTIONS and bloody as that ty
which Napoleon LII. passed from the Presl-
deDcy Of France to the throne and title OF Em-
pcror of til French. This is grave question
which now concerns the country; this is the
question OF questions which the American peo-
pie have never been called to consider till DOW
whether by and through an usurpation be-
gun aud carried on 10 the Soushero States by
orgauz ID bodies of armed men he Government
OF the Uoited State can be seized uuder the

patriotic sentiment to offset the most out
spoken hostility to everything great and
good, generous and just in this country.
1t is sorry sight to see such hilarity on
the eve of certain, speedy and final over
throw. But candor compels us to say
that the life long organ of Iilden, Tweed,
Tammany and the New York Copperhead
Democracy is entitled to our commisera-
ton upon seeing all its brightest hopes
fade away into gloom.
It has seen its idols pass away one by
one, and settle down in disgrace, OBJ
security or disaster. From jeff Davis to
Fitzhugh on one side Of the line, and
from Tilden to Sam Cox on the other, the
shining lights Of Democracy have ceased
to shine, and the World has only had the
sad satisfaction of helping to break the
fall as much as possible by its most
plausible apologies and the widest use of
figures. It's late love was Tweed; its last
Tilden. May its next, if it survives the
dreadful fall, be some one whom it need
not blush to name.
