NOW THE PEOPLE HAVE BO1NE
r u THEMSELVE0.

The Democratic party has deserved vel
Of the country for its sublime bearing in
in an hour of great trial. 1t is necessary
TO any just estimate Of the conduct during
the Presidential dispute to remember tha
from the first, the presumption of all TAI,
minded citizens has been that the Demo-
cratic candidates had been elected. Even
on mere question Of chances the proba-
bilities were all in their favor. Governor
Tilden needed only one of the dispute,I
States. Governor Hayes needed all three.
Governor Tilden had majority, on the
vote cast Of 5000 votes in one of these
States ifGovernor Hayes had any ms
jority at all in any Of the three on the vote
cast, it was SO small that single proof Of
fraud would overturn it. Ifany one of the
legal points raised by the Democracy wa
conceded Gov. Tilden's election was ad-
mitted, but Mr.. Hayes had to carry every
point in every State. The loss of one
would heve undone him. In the face OF
all these facts, and in the face of tie in
famous action Of the Louisisna Returning
Board the self-restraint and moderation o.,
the Democratic party have been, we rema
it, sublime. Theirs was grievance. 1t was
FROM them that the Presidency was being
stolen. 1t was upon them that this great
outrage was being committed. The Re-
publicans could claim no credit for remain
ing quiet. They were engaged in the
crime; they were not suffering from it, As
we'll commend a gang of thieves for not re-
sorting to undue violence to put down rob-
berry, az commend the Republican party
for It's bearing during this great crisis.
What the bearing Of the Democratic
party has been every man knows. Not a
Democrats voice has been raised in threat:
not q Democratic shot has been fired. The
Democrats have been refrained from i,old-
ing meetings, least they should alarm timid
people. Since November last they have
preserved the most dig lifted silence, wait
ing in perfect confidence for the final judg.
ment Of the law. "A sublimer instance Of
Aelf-goyernnent by a people has neve,
been seen in the history of the race.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER,
Correspondence Of The HERALD.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 80, 1877.
Mr.. EDIToR.-Thc developements made
by the Committee of the House, with refer
ence to the mutilated condition of the origi-
nal returns by the Louisiana Returning
Board, is one Of the chief topics discussed
here to-day. Without the aid Of a micro
scope the transfer of votes from the Tilden
to the Hayes column is clearly discernible
by placing the paper up to the light In
these mutilated returns, the number "97''
appears eight times over erasures in the
Hayes column, and the character "U' as
many times over the erasures in the Til
den column. All the circumstances at.
ending the alterations, names of persons,
when and how they were made, are also in
the possession Of the committee and the
Board will be so confronted with such damn
ing evidence Of rascality, that the RAIDS
will not as much as dare attempt to lay
their case before the Electoral Tribunal.
The caucus Of the House Republicans
held on SATURDAY., was stormy and full of
discomfort between the two opposition fac.
tions of the party, and came near result
ing in open, rupture. The extremists A.
tempted to defeat Mr.. Hoar as one of the
electoral five Of the House. Their idea
was to get the extreme Radicals on The
committee, and thereby accomplish in lu-
