OFFICIAL PAPER OF ALEXANDER COUNTY

DEMOCRACY is q sentiment not TO be appalled,,
corrupted or compromised. 1t knows 10 baseness,
covers 10 no danger, Expresses no weakness. Fear
less generous and humane 1t rebGkes the arrogant,
cherishes honor, and sympathises with the humble.
II asks nothing but what II comedies; it comedies
nothing but what it demands Destructive only OF
despotism II is the sole conservative of liberty Ia
Dor and property II is the sentiment of freedom,
of equal obligations 1t is the law Of nature per
yading the law Of the land, The stupid, the eel
fish, the base in spirit may denounce it as vulgar
thing; but in the history Of our race the Demo
cratic principle has developed and illustrated the
highest moral and intellectual attributes OF our
nature. Yes, this is noble, magnanimous, sub
lime sentiment, which expands our affections en-
arges the circle of our sympathies and eeyaes the
soul of man until, claiming an equality with The
best he rejects as unworthy of his dignity any po-
litcal immunities over the humblest Of his fellows
Yes, it is an cnnoblhg principle; and may that
spirit which animated our fathers in the Revolution
ary contest for its establishment continue to ami
mate US, their sons, in the impending struggle for
its preservation" WILLIAM ALLEN.

SECRETARY SHERMAY's dealings with the

exposed and denounced by the New York
Sun as most rascally, many months ago. Il
was then shown how the government was be-
ing swinded out of interest as il accumu.
lated, upon no less than forty millions Of
dollars OF bonds that were lying in the
vaults Of the bank, while the government
vaults held nothing IN lieu Of them, Now
it is given out that the government is hay.
ing trouble in eiiecting settlements with
the Bank Of Commerce Of New York, that
owes for so0O0,0OO Of the four per cents,
and with the First National bank that
owes the enormous sum of $3O,000,000l Ii
is so apparent that Sherman has been guilty
Of collision with these banks for the pur.
pose of increasing his own millions, that
the matter demands searching and rigid
investigation at the hands of Congress.
