In the debate on the army appropria-
ton bill, Mr.. Williams, of Wisconsin,
diyulged the true theory of the Republi-
can party in reference to government
when he said call government was
founded on the bayonet rs its ultimate
authority" The theory of the fathers of
this Republic held that it was founded
ultimately upon the consent of the gov
erned, and that the bayonet was only a
means of defense against interference
from without or insurrection within. 1t
was never intended to have n government
whose laws were to be enforced by the
bayonet or over the execution of whose
laws the bayonet was to act rs su pervisor.
The Radicals, however, are tending to q
monarchy, and hence wish to familiarize
the people with the sight Of this emblem
OF despotism when used in enforcing the
civil process of the government. Such a
government would have been resisted to
the death by our revolutionary sires, and
it will be ignominiously repudiated by
their sons even in this age of degenerate
liberty. Our people are not ready for n
Stussia nor Germany in America, and
the Republicans have made fearful
blunder in confessing t..eir idea Of the
foundation of our system. 1t will
frighten even the liberty loving portion
of their own party.

President Hayes, who form .rly en-
gagged in the occupation Of civil service
reform but has of late gone out of the
business, at this timo is endeavornp to
strengthen his vertcbrte sufficiently to
comply with the demands of the stall
warts, who propose conflict between
the Executive and the Democratic ma
jority in Congress. In this line he has
not yet had sufficient time to show what
he will do, but from all appearances he
intends to block the wheels of govern
mcnt in order to force the Den ocrats to
leave the election machinery in such
condition that the Republicans can use
fraud, Intimidation, force and bayoncts
to retain the administration of the gov
ernment. If this policy is adopted his
fraudulcncy will no doubt find the party
II constitutional liberty too strong for
him, and his resistance will only tend to
show the liberty-loving portion of our
people the danger Of allowing trickstcrs
and usurpcrs to obtain possession Of tho
government. Mr.. Hayes may profit by
reviewing the conflict between johnson
and Congress, by which he mus. see that
he il sure to bo defeated bef fc the con

the position of District Attorney for
South Carolina, which was declined, as
Corbn thought lie could cheat General
Butler out OF his seat in the Senate.
Now that Corbin's Senatorial ilomors
have been disposed of, Mr. Hayes comes
to his assistance, and offers to promote
him TO Il position which is the uttcrmost
PROCLAMATION Of justice. 1t is an outrage
upon the. American people, and would
If consummatcd, be disgrace to our
judiciary, which already has some bad
men upon il, but none so bad as Corbin.
Fortunately, however, the Senate must
be consulted about this appointment, and
Will no doubt refuse to confirm Mr.. Cor
bin. The Democratic majority ought to
give MIR. Hayes battle over every such
appointment. If the purity Of members
Of Congress WAS to-day equal to that
which marked our government in its
earlier existence, and il patriotism, in
stead Of partisanslip, controlled the
councils Of the nation, this appointment,
and those Of Il similar nature which have
been made by the President, would en-
sure his impeachment. Henry Clay,
one of our most popular and patriotic
statesmen, was so severely condemned
Tor accepting Office under President
Adams, after voting for him in the
House of Representatives, that lie could
never bc elected President, and Mr..
Adams, for his part in the matter, WAS
ANONYMOUSLY beaten after his first term
day wc see Il man who WA. not elected
occupying the Presidential chair, with
his lawyer, Mr.. Evarts. who no doubt
served before the electoral commission
without fee, appointed to the office of
Secretary of State, and all who figured
hs leaders III the conspiracy to make him
President enjoying fat Offices at his
hands. For the appointment of Pack
ard, McLin, Wells, Anderson, Corbin,
and men Of that stripe, the President
should be held to an account and al
though the Republicans in Congress are
too intensely partisan to impcach him,
he may rest assured that lie and his party
will be held to a rigid accountability be-
fore the electors of the Union; and will.
we have no doubt, be most mcrcilcssly
and overwhelmingly condemned.

Senator Pendleton has offered bill

s%cr questions in regard to the execution
of the laws of the government, 10 is the
custom in the English Parliament with
the Ministers Of the Crown. Mr.. Pen.

was respectfully inferred then, but il
seems to have risen from it's grave again
and should now be buried deep enough
to keep it quiet in the future. We wan,
no privileged class in America. The

The State of Tennessee has for several
years past had law requiring persons
who wished to sell guns, pistols, or other
firearms, to obtain license to engage in
the business, but the statute has not
accomplished its purpose entirely, and
hence the Legislature Of that State has
just made it q misdemeanor to carry into
the State, either to sell, barter or give
away, any belt or pocket pistol, except
army or navy pistols. 1t would be a
great blessing if every State in the
Union had such law as this rgidly
enforced, for in many instances pistols
are sold in stores everywhere to disor-
derly, drunken rowdies, and the result is
that every boy largo enough to run
about has his pistol at hand, ready to
use at any time his passions may be
aroused. This law would not of itself
be sno;igh &c suppress the ristol hnai-
ness. but would check the evil, and pub
lie opinion could do the balance.

The Democratic Congress would do
well to abolish the lavish allowances
paid to defeated contestants in Congress
sional elections, for it amounts simply t,
q premium TO men who were not elected
to contest the rcat Of the member who
VIZ elected, u means Of making n
living. 1t is wonder that every defeat
ed radical in the South does not contest
the election, simply to get the money al
lowed to those who press their claims.
The forty-sixth or present Congress will
have about thirteen contests to settle, as
the seats Of Yocum Of Pennsylvania,
Hancock Of New York, Loving Of Mas
sachusetts, Orth of Indiana, Forsythc of
Illinois, Acklcn of Louisiana, IIenkcl of
Maryland, Martin of North Carolina and
O'Connor Of South Carolina, with possi-
BILE contests from Florida, Virginia and
Wisconsin. BY cutting down the allow
ance to unsuccessful contestants the
House Of Representatives will per-
form considcrate act Of economy, and
will in future stop contests which have
no merit il them.

Illinois is discussing proposition to
amend her Constitution so as to provide
for biennial sessions of the Legislature
for enacting tax and supply bills, with
sessions once in six years for law making,
Such change would be very advau-
tageous in all the States, for it would put
stop to the continual tinkering with
laws, which is probably the greatest
nuisance that can beset people. Col.
Mettieen, fthis Ca-;:y;- TO" has joint joint
resolution pending TO provide for BIZ
ennial sessions of the Legislature in this
State, and we are Satisfied that its adop-
ton would give the people greater relief
than any other one thing which could be
done. Indeed, ne think modification
30 as to have sessions for making laws
but once in four years would even be an
improvement on the biennial plan. II
Illinois adopts the measure we can see its
workings there, and, if desirable, fall
into line. We ought to begin on the
once in two years plan any way.

= The issue Of the ten dollar govern
mcnt bonds can hardly fail to be benefi-
cial in more ways than one. The great
est benefit will be to the wor. ing classes,
who will thus have an opportunity to in
vest small earnings with sense Of per-
feet security-an opportunity they have
never had before. They have had their
iaith IN savings banks seriously impaired,
both by bad management and palpable
dishonesty on the part Of directors and
oiiicers, and now that they have another
anu altogether safer way of placing their
money, they will be alenatcd more and
more from such Institutions. The people
VIII soon see, If they see not now, that 4
per cent, with certainty, is preferable to
. per cent, with uncertainty. Within
the last five years boarding has grown to
be unusually common in this country,
especially among foreign mechanics and
laborers, and the slender amounts thus
boarded will in due time be cry apt TO
go into the ncw bonds. a good many
persons of intelligence not in business,
such rs women and minors, have a few
dollars, from so to $3O which they do
not think it worth while to put in bank.
They will naturally turn to the bonds.
and having got some, will try to get
more The bonds. too, will have the
direct effect to stimulate economy among
the very classes who need it most. The
industrious poor have repeat .,.ly been
driven from habits of saving by losses
sustained through savings banks, which
they had been assured were infalliblc.
such shattered confidence with its many
depl0r:ble results will be healed by pur-
chase of the tcn-dollar bonds, which
must grow in favor and advantage with
advancing time. Popular honor and
loyalty will likewise be quickcncd the
dcmagoguc's cry against bloated bond
holders will lose its rapacity for harm /;
the people will he educated by their own
experience to an understanding of their
own interest and the proper value of
money. IL word, the new government
certificates will profit the humblcst of
our ,.! citizens morally, financially and po-
liticaly, and so profit the nation at large
more than can be easily forescen.-New

= We have, upon various occasions,
cndeavored to impress upon the Repubi-
cans the fact that the negroes are grow
ing tired of the part they have been
misled to play in politics. At a meeting
of negroes in Philadelphia the other day,
ex-Congressman Cain, of South Caro-
lima, boldly announced that his race de.
sired to be let alone in future-supple-
menting, in this respect, the recent re-
marks of Frederick Douglas. "Let us
alone to take our chances" he said, tiust
rs you do with other people :" and he ad-
yiscd colored men to drop politics and
give attention to their mental improve
ment. At tho same meeting, another
neg:o named Tanner called attention to
tho fact that there is general DISPOSE
ton, more prevalent at the North than
at the South, to refuse work to the negro.
The blacks, he said, are everywhere told
at the North. "you may stand by my
side at the ballot box, but not at the

Hon. Samuel J. Randall, Speaker of
the House of Representatives, puts the
Democratic position in its true light be-
fore the country in what he said on a re-
cent occasion in Washington. His
words, though brief, state the case clear
ly, and will be fully appreciated by the
masses of American voters, who will
sustain the party which has tho nerve
and the sagacity to battle for the great
rights therein claimed. Mr.. Randall
said:
We ask but little, but the principle In
volved is great. We ask that all through
the country the right Of suffrage shall be
exercised by freemen without interyen-
tion of the army. We ask that intelli-
gence and not ignorance shall in future
prevail in the jury box, and that all test
oaths and other obnoxious distinctions
shall be forever wiped out. We ask that
the control now exercised by the Federal
Government, under law which permits
the appointment of partisan supervisors
of election, shall and must cease, for they
are only employed for the purpose of do
priving citizens of their dearest right,
the right Of suffrage.

The Democrats have managed their
case in Congress adroitly, and with sue
cess so far. When Garfield finished his
speech, in which he charged the Denoc-
racy with revolution for attempting ia
force the passage ofgcncral legislation by
tacking it on to an appropriation bill, it
was thought 10 have been an able urgu-
mcnt, which would have great weight
with the country, but the replies Of the
Democrats have not only riddlcd his
arguments, but have overwhelmed him
with nh array Of prccclcnis, which they
clinched by citing an instance in which
just such scheme was champoncd by
Garfield himself. Mr.. Townsend rcplicd
collating the precedcnts to which the fol
owing briefsynopsis shows that the House
of Representatives has for many wears
claimed and exercised the very right
which is now claimed by the Democrats.
During Folks administration the dccla-
ton of war against Mexico WAS accom-
plishcd by tacking it on to an appropri
alton bill, in the famous cnunciation that
"war exists by the act of Mexico" and
other Legislation relative TO the war was
effected in the same way. The very first
Republican House of Representatives in
1861, of which General n. Z. Banks was
speaker, tackled on to an appropriation
bill provision forbidding the President
to interfere in the Kansas election. Tha,
was precisely similar case to the pres.
ent In 1867 the Republican Congress
tackled on to an appropriation bill "a pro-
vision that the General of the Army
should not be sent away from Washing
ton against his will, and that all orders
should be transmitted through him, &c.
This action was more Objectionable than
the proposition ofthe Democrats now, for
it virtually took from the President the
command of the Army and Navy, which
is conferred on him by the Constitution
Itself. This was not considered revoiu
ton by the Republicans. At the end of
Grants first term, Garfield himself push
ed through as section of n supply bill the
laws authorizing the appointment OF
Bcputy Marshals and Supervisors. If
therefore, it was not revolutionary to
pass these laws as sections of supply
bill, hU~ ID 1t any worse to repeal them
in the same way9 In addition to these
numerous instances Of where Republicans
tried to amend appropriation bills by in
serting general legislation were shown,
and the Republican position was COM
pletely demolished. They cannot COM
plain, with any show of reason, against
tho Democrats for doing now what they
have so frequently done heretofore them
selves.

Mr.. Hayes evidently will never forget
the services rendered him in 1876 by the
men who stole the Presidency for him.
All of those who were prominent in the
business have been given good fat Offices
SO far as his opportunity has afforded.
Packard, Wells, Anderson, and Others OF
these cormorants, are enjoying their re-
wards, and still Mr.. Hayes is not satisfied.
His latest act Of gratitude is manifested
in the appointment of d. T. Corbin to
the Office of Chief Justice of the Terri
tory Of Utah. 1t will be remembered
that he offered this notorious individual
