ate public sentiment against the party by
these means. They took advantage Of tho
prevailing depression In all business cir.
cles Of the coun try, and attempted to throw
the responsibility Of this state OF affairs
upo, their opponents. With the avidity
ofravenous wolves they pounced upon the
BELKNAP scandal, and assailed President
GRANTS administration for the personal
acts Of one Of his cabinet officers. With a
spirit of the most acrimonious hate
they built mountains of scandal out
Of mole hills Of facts, and piled on the
agony until the burden Of their daily lays
was composed OF slanderous fabrications and
outrageous abuse. Inch by inch-through
the canvass, at the polls, 10 the Electoral
College, in Congress, and In the last re.
sort Of the Democracy, the mixed Tri-
bunal-the Republican party has fought
the Presidential contest against intimlda.
ton, mob violence, fraud, bribery and
corruption. They now stand ready to re.
ceive with gratitude the fruits Of their
splendid triumph. A few more days and
the constant political strain which has
afflicted the country for months will be
removed, and peace and quietude will be
once more restored In the dawning twi.
light Of an era Of solid prosperity.
SHALL PACKARD he SUSTAINED.
The President has concluded to simply
preserve the peace In Louisiana for the pre-.
sent. This will not be welcome news to
the people of that commonwealth. For q
long time they have been under the dis.
tressing influences Of q dual government.
Business is at a standstill. Bloodshed,
mob, violence, and riot are liable
to occur at any moment. The
lives of the citizens arc In danger. The
NICHOLS faction, which has by brute
force usurped the po yer Of the State aud
secured q portion Of the government, are
lying on their arms, ready at q warning to
seize the State House, and overthrow by
violence and lawlessness the legitimate
PACKARD government. If the action
Of the Returning Board was valid
in the case of HAYES, IL must
necessarily be valid in the case of PACK.
ARD. Therefore, II the decision of the
Electoral Tribunal was right and Just,
PACKARD Is the lawful Governor Of Louisi-
ana, and, for the sake of our republican
form of government and the preservation of
the elective franchise rights, he should be
supported by the Federal power.

A FOUR-HORsE TEAM OF PREvARIcA-
TORS.

TORS.
Perjury sits enthroned In high places,
and honor is begging among some men.
In 1868, when the nation was struggling
under the awful throes of fratricidal and
uncertain war, when brave foe was sr.
rayed against the forces Of the Union on
the battle. field, and cowardly and insidi.
ous copper.head Democracy had fastened
Its poisoning fangs into the back Of the
nation. SAMUEL J. TILDEN committed per.
jury In order to evade the payment of q
just income tax, which the Federal gov.
ernment needed in the prosec ution of the
desperate conflict.
But few days ago, Colonel PELToy, un.
der solemn oath, swore that he was un.
acquainted with the key TO the Oregon dis.
patches. 1t has since been positively es.
tablished that he answered the dispatches,
and used the same key.
Senator KELLY made a voluntary state
ment that but $4,000 had been received
from New York; $4,000 Of which was paid
to CRoSIN, and the balance to lawyers as Q
retainer fee. Subsequently this eminent
apostle Of reform endorsed a telegram which
said; 1--WE must purchase Republican
elector to recognize and act with Democrat,
and secure the vote and prevent trouble.
Deposit $4,000 to my credit with Kountze
Bros, Wall street"
Governor GROVER also solemnly swore
that he had not communicated In advance
TO any one what his decision would be In
the Oregon certificate case. One of the
dispatches sent to Mr.. TILDEN proves that
Governor GROVER had done that very
thing. Here we have, for depth. breadth
and general massiveness, four of the most
inexcusable and positive lies ever presented
to the public by prominent men. Reform
is necessary. 1t must be secured at once,
or solid truth will be lost art to the Dem.
ocracy.

SOUTHERN MEN TO THE RESCUE.

The action Of the Democratic House yes
terday exhibited filhbustering spirit
which they will not be able to consum:
mate. The majority which secured the
recess until to day was only ten, which In
dicates weakness on the part of the fill.
clustering faction that will eventually end
in their complete overthrow. The South
ern leaders have fully determined to check
any inclination the Northern dough-faces
may have towards delaying the count
revolutionary proceedings In the House.
They voted down the fool.hardy proposi.
tious Of FIELD and CoCHRANE In the eau.
Gus on Saturday, and they will defeat all
efforts at fillibustering which may be at.
tempted by the refractory element 10 the
party. The Southern men have golden
opportunity now. and they are wise enough
to make the most Of the blessing.

The Mexican government is opposing the
payment Of awards found in favor OF certain
American citizens. IL took years TO secure
these awards from the Commission, and by
protesting Mexico proposes to delay the pay
ment for another term Of years. The United
States has been trihed with long enough in
this matter. Diaz must loosen his purse
strings and render to these American claim
ants that which Is their Just due.

The reasonable uttcrances Of the editor OF

stood now, however, and for all time, that any

The postofiice pr aspects of the Democracy

seventy thousand government Offices In the
