WILL THEY LAUGH OR CRvq

AS was to have been expected the ffers of
the Democratic party are blowing in the
ears of the President the shrill notes of
fraud. Hear the music;
A fraudulent incumbent Of the Presdcn-
tial office has vetoed q bill passed by large
majority of the legally elected representatives
OF the people in both branches of Congress,
which was designed to secure free elections
and honest returns.
In referring to those who passed the bill
that the president has so patriotically COW
cred with his veto, the Democratic organ
was not reckless enough to say that they
were honestly elected for that would have
been too bold Misrepresentation. 1t
knows thatas many as make up a majority Of
the House are holding their positions by the
rankest dishonesty and fraud. II there had
been "free elections and honest returns" in
the last Congressional election, enough
Democrats to turn the scale in the way of
a majority would have been relegated to
private life, and patriotic Republicans
would be occupying their seats. So much
for that. Then comes little stage thunder
in the way of intimidation, as follows
| OF hasty aud rash action.
This is n white sQuall, except that those
| whose purposes against the Federal law and
| power have been defeated are chagrned by
their discontinue; and even they are adj
vised to exercise n wise discretion as to
"hasty and rash action"
Then comes in n triae of good advice that
the majority proceed with "tho greatest
"caution and delbcrntion," and q threat
ened appeal to King Caucus to interpose and
help out of this slough Of discontinue is
foreshadowed. OF course the caucus is the
hope of the Democracy; it is their only
| refuge, their altar of worship. They are
advised to 90 slow, and exercise calmness
and moderation, for they are among quag-
mires and pitfalls, now that they have
strayed away from the Constitution and the
principles of right and justice. Then, again
the pensioned fugleman of the party
advises TO strict silence and against
"unwise speeches or loose talk" "nc
speech or talk Of any kind 1t be-
gins to be apparent on that side that early
"and proyident fear is the mother oi
safety Under these injunctions of tn,
prompter we may now expect the Demo.
cratic side Of the House to clothe itself in
silence and do Quaker's reverence to each
succeeding session of that interesting body
After an invocation from the Chaplain nj

Speaker will rise solemnly from his choi
and exclaim in subdued tones, Let silence
"cose our folding-doors of speech" How
true it is that "silence is the safest coursC
for any man to adopt who distrusts him
"self" Let no perturbed Democrat forge
the solemn injunction that the next
twelve hours can be most profitably sur
rendered 10 reflection" for the Demo
cratic family is in deep atlliction. The
veto has invaded its circle and is destroy
J ing its peace and comfort. 1t is filed will
CONSERVATION, and now solaces itself will
the constant cry of fraud, while the peopl,
"laugh at its calamity and mock when it
fear cometh."

THE DILEMMA,

A considerable number of the leading
Democrats of both Houses of Congress have
submitted to the siphon Of the interviewer,
and they eject what appears to he very bill
lions matter; but close analysis shows it
almost invariably to be q mixture of bad
whisky tobacco, and garlics strongly in
flated with bombast and self-conceit The ex-
tract is not pleasant to contemplate, but it
is not at all dangerous. 1t may relieve the
Democratic stomach, and it will do no harm
to others; hence it is well that the election
has occurred. They affect TO be terribly in
earnest about what they are going to do ;
but they take care not to define what terri
BILE things they propose TO perpetrate. 1t IS
very certain that they cannot override the
veto, and it is equally 80 that they dare not
do what they intimate is within the range
| of their purpose. They cannot pass their
political rider and they dare not go away
without providing appropriations for the
Government. This is the great dilemma OF
the revolutionists at the present moment,
and it is exceedingly awkward for them.
1t is not improbable under the circum-
stances that the Democrats will hunt until
they find door of escape through joint
resolution, which they have the power to
pass in both Houses, extending the existing
appropriations for six months, and then go
home and consult the people during the time
that intervenes between this and the next
session of Congress in December Should
they select this course, we presume they
will not he interfered with, beyond, per.
haps, the presentation of an unbroken polit
ical party line, as opposed to this unusual
policy in legislation. BE this rs it may, il
is well enough to give them all the rope that
belongs TO them in that direction, for it is
only the respite of n fate that is inevitable
in The end. The position taken by tho
Democrats in this contest involves perhnp:
the gravost blunder that party has made
since the rebellion. 1t is theoretical revo
luton, and the people so regard and vii
punish it when the day of reckoning shall
come. To postpone the consummation oi
their nefariOIs scheme will in no degree re-
licve them from its responsibility and con
sequences 1t may protract the life of tho
patient, but it will not escape the inevita
bic. If they prefer n lingering death, they
have the opportunity and privilege of tax
ing their choice; but this policy only find
a parallel with the bird that puts its heat
in the sand and fancies itself safe from OBJ
| seryation.

TO the Editor of The National ReDuJicaH;
SIR: IL is very difficult task for humanity
to think one way aud act nnothcr-to pretend
to be Il friend while the real sentiment Of the
heart is directly in opposition to all such pro-
tensions of friendship. To carry out the de.
ception successfully requires a most rigid vigil
ance over the tongue TO prevent betrayal of
the genuine impulses Of the heart. A striking
aud rather amusing instance Of an unguarded
tongue happened Nt burg few miles from
Washington. A Virginia mother, living in
Culpoper County some half dozen years ago,
was anxious to get her son in the Treasury
Department, and for that purpose came down
10 said burg to get the in huence of Republican
ex.member of Congress to secure the much-de-
sired edappOintment. "What tshall say 10 thc Gov
ernmcnt officials respecting your sons qnalifi-
cations aud what has been his political senti-

education" said the mother "hc reads and
writes well, has fair knowledge Of figures, and
Is temperate and industrious in his habits.
During the war the family went with the State,
but since the war we have come back in favor
of the Old Union, and hereafter shall try to
honor and respect the Government and its
rulers from the highest to the lowest"
Tho cx-member expressed his entire salts
faction as 10 the sons qualifications and the
iumily's Union sentiments aud promised To do
all he could to procure the desired appoint

TO nc Editor Of hc Na,iona, Republican:
SIR A brother of the editor of the Portland
(NTc.) Press writes to that paper on the 10th
instant from Topeka, Kan, concerning the
immigration OF colorcd people into that State
from the South. From the following extract
tho public will learn that all these people need,
who are fleeing from land of oppression to
one of freedom, is very little help at the
start:
The negroes as they first arrive in large compa-
mics are objects of charity and n burden upon the
municipal authorities wherever they stop. but they
come IN favorable season, as there Is just now de-
mand for farm hands; so they gradually dispersc
through the country, and in the end arc comiorta-
bly, provided for. The large railroad corporations
which there is reason 10 accuse of completely III
the scheme of bringing them here, offer 70 give
employment TO several thousand negroes In build
ing at the ends of the Santa Fc and the Southern
Pacific railroads, and through these means many
viii go southwest into New Mexico and Arizona
aud finally make their home there. While the
colorcd people who come here from the south are
destined in the first place TO disappointment ol
their sanguine expectations they will suffer no Sc
we're deprivation, and their permanent condition
will DC an improvement over their life i'll the Souu

as plainly as the former has, that he would
not do his part in the final enactment of
any especial law unless its provisions were
strictly in accord with the partisan interests
Of the Republicans, would the Democratic
House hesitate for an instant to impeach
him? Every honest man will admit at
any rate, that he would deserve impeach-
ment under such circumstances. And yet
this course, which would be high crime
and misdemeanor if adopted by him, is ex-
actly the course pursued by Congress in the
passage of the army bill, and now being
