0 the Editors of the Dispatch:

TO the Editors of the Dispatch:
Is it not almost time we stopped agoniz-
ing over national grievances and turned
our attention to domestic affairs ? We
frankly fought out our battle for constitu-
tional government, and lost. The army
having persisted, what need to fret over the
sauabbles OF its camp-followers
But we lost more than the stake we played
for. In our STRIFE for civil liberty We lost
the basis Of all good goYernment-materlal
prosperity; and our present struggle for
political Yanities would seem to tall under
Goldsmifiis censure-that of man yearn-
ing for ruffles when he needs SHIRT.
Let us no longer waste our energies IN
fr11itless efforts for the unattainable. We
have proved that we can live not only With
out government, but in spite OF 1t, even
when OF the Grant pattern. By all means,
then. Let us prosecute our domestic indus
tries, maintain integrity In our local affairs,
and desist from the vain task Of galyaniz-
Ing. life into the corpse Of o dead republic.
The simple government Of the fathers Ilas
persisted beyond recall. From pure consti-
tutfonalisrn 1t has degenerated Into that most
revolving OF all tyrannies-a irresponsible,
because impersonai despotism, guided by
passion and fed by fanatieism, prosecuting
in the name OF liberty and Disgusting the
most 1oatbsone oppression under ghastly
gembiance Of popular forms.
But q little while ago we looked with con-
temptuous scorn on the Hng-ridden nations
of Europe, and with kiDdliDg eye and
auickened pulse marvelied that men OF our
race should bow their neeks 10 the exploits
tions Of royalty and the exacti0ns OF 9 priyi-
legged class. II they had one spark OF man
hood liz their bosorns why did they mol eE,-
ulate our example and hnrl their tyrants TO
the dusta
"a little while aud the tinkle OF Stewards
bel Was heard The government OF COM
sent became government OF force, and ty-
rnnny buoyed by passion and marshalie by
knayery, Ia open day and amid the plau-
dts OF the mnltitnde, wrought crimes OF q
darker dye than those that l0at5 King James
ills kingdom and King Charles bis head.
