What die RepabIlean party has

The same number Of words were
never used totel more truth than those
below, in which the World lets the
Republican party state its own case,
or put in its own bill, and then pre-
sents the offsets: "The true way 70
test the Republican party's career is
TO reckon up its works and the cost
Of them. II put down the rebellion,
but after much laundering and mis-
management. II freed the slaves,
but by the sacrifice Of a white mans
life for every negro man liberated,
and by the expenditure of money
enough to buy every slave in the
South at a fair market price. 1t re.
CONSTRUCTED the rebellious States, but
weighed them down with q burden
Of dishonesty contracted debt, inter.
fered with civil liberty and disgraced
the whole country by the knaveries
of the carpet baggers. 1t built the
Pacific railroad by grant of money
and land, and virtually bestowed the
great work upon a private corpora
tion guilty of the yilest bribery toat.
tain its ends. 1t has squandered
hundreds Of millions on our navy,
and we are without effective war
ships. It has almost brought about
the resumption of specie payment,
but only after the most curious course
Of financial jugglery with irredeema,
BILE paper, which it sometimes con;
sidered receivable for debts contract
ed in gold, and sometimes insufficient
tender Of debts contracted in paper.
1t boasts increase of foreign com
merce after almost throttling it by
a tariff. u is proud of reduced ex-
penditures after being compelled to
the reduction by Democratic House
of Representatives. Verify, things
are in good condition, which is, to
say the least, doubtful, we owe little
thanks to the Republican party

The Grcenback party charge that
the Democniicahd Republican par
ty are equally at fault for the bad
and mischieyous legislation that has
brought the present condition Of af'
fairs upon the country. This charge
is not sustained by the testimony Of
political history. While all the
measures Of which the new party
complain where Matching or matur.
ing, the Democratic party was under
a cloud in the north, and the south
had no voice in the government.
The Republican party was in abso-
lutte ascendency. 1t had the votes,
the encouragement, and applause Of
the bulk of the workingmen in the
great manufacturing towns of the
country. The financial policy, then
inaugurated and established by the
Republican party, was in all its fea-
lures and tendencies contrary ia
Democratic traditions, and to the
teachings and examples of leading
Democrats in the sphere of national
affairs. Vain were protests and
warnings, These workingmen COM
bined with their insidious enemies
to crush a party which had been
their steadfast friend and assisting
with enthusiasm in piling up burd.

ing chains for their own enthrall-
ment. Indeparting from Democratic
teachings and traditions now, work
ingmen are contriving the defeat Of
their own hopes. The Democratic
party is the only party that can sue
cessfully redress the grievances Of
the people, and to the Democracy
must the country turn for relief.
