The PIaesl O nleaaal Pluck of the
Democracy.

IFrom the Cincinnati Cemmercial--Rep.l
We are never more impressed
with the wonderful vitality and
rugged power of the Democratic
party than in the days of it's defeat.
Tuesday last that the Democrats
burdened as they were, suffered
defeat, bat that they were able to
exhibit such strength and resolu
ton. Surely there never was more
unkindness shown a party in pre-
pairing it for combat. The issues
were awful; yet under these cir
cumstances-such that it ought to
be a matter of surprise that there
is a Democratic vote TO each Ohio
township-the old party comes out
grim rs az army Of veterans, and
fights TO the bitter end In the
spirit of the soldiers of Russia, OF
whom it is said is not sufficient to
kill them, they must be knocked
down after they are dead. Now,
we are able to rejoice that this
surprising host was discounted
beaten a few per cent. in prodi
gious vote, and we know that un-
der the gloom of their defeat there
may be disappointment and re
sentiment, but never discourage,
ment. On the next occasion the,
will turn out again with full RAM. i

A vivid description OF an Alpine
tb' 'Inder~storm is given in the London

making the ascent of the Gross Clock

middle of storm-clond, and were
compelled by the darkness to make
complete stop. Other parties ascend

electric fluid seemed to envelope them.
For a while it appeared as if there was
little chance of any life being spared,
and all suffered complete blindness from
the overpowering intensity Of the
lightning. When at length sight be
gan to return, each one appeared en-
veloped in fire. From the hair of theil

South by the Republican press
were half true the South would be
hopeless indeed. Yet the i'll things
are iterated and reiterated without
even an attempt to subordinate
them and, where misconstrnctions
and false constructions fail, fabri-
cation is freely resorted to as a
means of defaming our character
and destroying our credit.
Is the North to remain forever
blind and stolida Can it not per
ceive at glance the epecious ma
ture Of the appeal which is. made to
its passions Can it not penetrate
the disguise worn by such leaders
Chandler and Beecher, Conkling
and Blaine-by such journals as
the New York Tribune, and the
Cincinnati Gazette ? Can it not
see that, whilst its philosophers,
preachers and moralists are pre-
tending to be agitated about the
South, an intellectual pestilence-
moral loprosy-is permeating its
highways and its by-ways, steal
ing away the graces and the virtues
Of its peaceful homes, and turning
slowly but surely its garden flowers
into noxious and poisonous weeds
A-well-a-day2 Ii it does not, it
had better look to it. In its daily
press it may see what Sir Anthony
described an hundred years ago as
an evergreen tree of diabolical
knowledge. Let it cease for mo-
ment p!ucking the mote ont of its
neighbor's eye to attend to the
beams in its own. Let it take its
mind off the solid South ere it be-
come the stolid North-stolid alike
in depravity and insensibility.
Reforms, like charity, should
begin at home. The South is bad
enough, Heaven knows, and grow
ing worse by contact and example.
But, if it mend its ways, it must be
moved by spirit from within. :
Bogus missionaries, stirring up
strife ard cheating, won't effect i.
Outside pressure, employing false
hood and epithets, won't effect it
They merely mislead the ole sec
tion whilst they infame the other
The good people of ahe North need
to pause and reflect; how muct
shall they gain by fostering the
sectional idea, and it is worth theil
while to stamp out the solid Soutl
in order that they may schieve--a

You have heard, perhaps, Of the
clerk who had faithfully aerved
Stephen Girard from boyhood tc
manhood. On the twenty first
anniversary of his birthday he went
to his master and told him his time
was up, and he certainly expected
important promotion in the mer-
chants service. But Stephen Cir,
ard said to him: "Very we'll. Now
60 and learn a trade"
"What trade, sir %
ssGood barrels must be in, de-
mand while you live. Go and
learn the cooper's trade, and wher
you have made perfect barrel bring

The young man went away ano
learned the trade, and in tim.
brought his old master spleudcd
barrel of his own make.
Girard examined it, and gave thu
maker two thousand dollars for it
and then saiu to him:
"Now, sir, l want you in IN,

you will not be dependent upon TIN
whita of Stephen Girard. Lc
what will come, you have a goo'
trade always in reserve"
The young man saw tho wisdom
and understood.
Years ago, when the middle-age'
men of to-day were boys, Horace
Greely wrote:
