THE Vicksburg Herald of the 10Th inst,
reviews the late speech Of jefferson Davis
and characterizes It as an outspoken, fat
footed, unmistakable, unnecessary and I'M
wise secession speech I'VE are sorry" says
the Herald, THAT whatever harm il can DO
will be done the already long-suifcring
South. 1t will be replied TO in the North y
million times, and it will Re assumed every
time that Mr.. Davis spoke the true senti-
ments of the South The Herald gives
itself unnecessary uncasiness, for the time
has gone 10y when the utteranccs of Mr.
Davis. and the few men who entertain his
sentiments,c can do the South any harm at the
North. After the discussions Of the past
thirteen years, the people Of the North have
learned that the people of the South have
accepted the results OF the war in good faith
and are anxious to restore TO their States
peace and prosperity Its true the Repub-
lican leaders, remembering the affective use
to which hatred Of the Southern people was
put 10y them for years after the war, are
seeking to revive old prejudiccs and
old issues; but this cannot be done even
though they receive the cordial support Of
Southern men like Mr.. Davis. Probably We
shall be compelled to fight one or two cam
paigns yet in which the charge ofcontinued
disloyalty will be made against the Southern
people, but we can meet the charge and sue
cesstully repeat it as often as il may be
made. The increasing prosperity Of the
Southern country and greater security TO life
and property that has resulted from the
overthrow of Radicalism in the Southern
States vindicate the Southern people and
prove them TO be worthy Of local self.gov-
eminent and to he devoted to the Union and
the Constitution with all its amendments.
Mr., Davis may talk secession and Mr.,
Tombs extol slavery without injury to the
people of the South. They arc regarded AT
the North as well as at the South as i'm
practicable men who stand alone in their
opinions.

In these respects the Michigan and Mis-

the action Of those Pennsylvania, Maine,
Ohio AID Arkansas. These conventions
substantially agree on the great questions
before the country to-day. Ohio is sup
posed to hold the most extreme views Of
finance. Yet, stripped Of rhetorical en-
bclIishmcntS they substantially agree with
those put forth by the conservative Demo-
cracy Of Maine. They oppose Il further
contraction Of the currency, demand re-
peal Of the national banking law, and call
for substitution of green-backs for nation
al bank notes. Both agree that gold and
silver together should be the real money Of
the country, as il was in the times Of An
drew jackson and Thomas Jefferson. These
views are enunciatcd with equal emphasis
East and West, North and South. The
Democracy may differ on unsscntial points,
but they stand shoulder to shoulder in
demanding purity of elections and the
punishment of election frauds; tariff
for revenue, with duties as low
as the interests Of the government
will bear; honesty and economy in

AT the late Republican State convention
the brilliant storrs, in a speech reported for
the press but not made to any audience,
impudently declared that President Hayes
had lately joined the Republican party.
This assertion was based upon the policy
lately pursued by the administration. With
a great flourish ofreform trumpcts President
Hayes entered upon the discharge Of his
duties but he pursued his policy in weak
ness and has finally abandoned it in II weak
and Enthusiastically mean manner He
has become the instrument of the machine,
and permits the political rascals who stole
the presidency for him to control hls actions
In this way-by abandonment of even the
pretonce Of independence has Joined
the Republican party, and is entitled to the
applause of men like Storrs WHO laugh n,

and accomplish results 10y the unscrupulous
use OF ialsehoods and money.

Two Democratic State conventions were
held on Wednesday, one at Detroit and the
other at ST. Louis. Both were large, i'm.
portant and harmonious. The sentiments
expressed by these bodies, acting without
previous arrangement. and representing two
different sections Of country and classes Of
people, deserve attention as indicating the
drift of Democratic opinion The simlari.
ty Of the views expressed by these bodies
on the great questions now before the coun-
try, shows how Democracy naturally gravi-
tates towards, and adheres to certain great
principles Of government and views Of pab'
lie policy,
A noteworthy feature of both platforms,
feature in striking contrast to those put
forth by the Republicans, is the bold,
square, downright way in which they state
their views There Is no plattering in a
double sense, no trying to ride two horses
going in opposite directions, no shutting
between issues old and new to catch votes,
to looking one way and pulling the other
to deludc the people, no cant nor pretense.
They say just what the people who made
them mean, and mean to stick to il. They
have the genuine ring Of honesty and sin.

more important, they meet the new issues

extravaganza have paralyzcd the industry OF

that the government shall be run IN the in.
