Ii is not possible tor any section to cut
itself off more absolutely from all share In
the Government or influence in public al
fairs than the South viii II II defends the
wholesale aud systematic prostitution OF
the ballot-box. Its foremost statesmen, II
they ever appeal again to Northern senti-
ment, will be treated with the contempt and
scorn due to exposed aud bafiied swind-
lers. "You gave yourihonor," the North
will say, "anI when you were trusted as
gentlemen. you stuffed the bailo'-5oxes."
Between the local agent who did the job.
and the Democratic statesman who planned
II. or profted by IL. or defended II, or
failed to deoouDce aud punish IL. the North
will know no difference, for there Is none.

did the dirty work of cheating for Tweed.
Ii /. not a thing TO be desired--thi- deep
gulf OF utter antago nism between the North
aud the South. But it ought To come, aud
the sooner the better, IL the South tolet-
aies. countenances, profits by, aud refuses
to punish. the crimes which have been us
closed. Words need tot be minced about
such a matter. Between a self-respecting
aud law-abidiug man, however humble,
and known swindler or thief there ought
to be guilt II the South pleases tn take
upon Itself full responsibility for the mean
est and most dastardly cheating that has
ever yet been perpetrsted under forms OF
tree government. 1t must expect all the
scorn. all the Indignation. aud all the hos
tility that communities of free, law-abidin2
and honest citizens have for the most de-
spicsble offences. II must expect all the
loss ofpower, all the Punishment from a
part in the government OF this country,
which a minority can suffer when the black
est disgrace Is added to defeat. We know
the people Of the North, and We tell the
people OF the South that there is not
single State north of the old slave line In
which any svmpathizer with or apologist
for onion-skin Democracy can escape de
feat and contempt.

But when the system breaks down, and almost
hopeless complications arise, which he family

fails to relieve, the pertinency Of the above
inquiry is apparent. Many remedies have been
specially prepaid for these cases. and many
physicians are bidding for their patronage. AS
before making purchase of land. a"search"
Is required, and the title earthly examined, so

Of any physician offering as treat chronic dis

At cost Of nesrly half million dollars. No
