ANOTHER "FLOPPER."

W. W. Langhorne, Esq, promi>
nent democrat of Newport, Tennes-
see, writes lengthy communication
to the Sentinel of that place, in
which he critises the party pretty
vigorously. A paragraph appeared
in previous issue of that paper,
saying: cit is undemocratic as well
as untrue to predict the dissolution
of the democratic party" etc. If
this is so, says Col. Langhorne, 81
propose to be undemocratic." He
says.
I propose to talk plainly, at the risk
of being termed "fiOpper." And If
the democratic patty intends to dub
every member of the organization who
dares to give uttsrance to sentiments
that are justified by the experience of
the past, and to warn the party against
repetition ofthe past errors as "fop-
pers," then the party can at least
nave the satisfaction of knowing that
she is destined to be the prolific mother
OF noble army of martyrs. l say
that there is immediate danger of the
dissolution of the democratic party.
And that it is extremely doubtful If it
can preserve Its organization another
four years.
After showing the absence Of
principle in the national campaign
of 1872 and 1876, exhibited by the
democratic party, he says:
Pass on to 1880. Can you tell me
what line of policy the democratic
party advocated in 1875, that it prO-
mulgated in 1880? The party in 1880
nominated Gen. Hancock. The de-
mocracy did not know what Hancock %
ideas were, nor did Hancock know
when he was nominated what the
principles and policy of the party noun
mating him were. And might 90 so
far as to assert that the democratic
party since 1865 never nominated q
candidate for the presidency who was
in accord with the principles OF the
party nominating him. If this be
true, could the democracy expect to
win q great national victory? 1t was
idle to expect 1t. What is the condi-
ton of the patty to-day? Is it organ
lied? Does it present the great mass
of thinking men over the country any
substantial reasons why it should be
entrusted with power? Has it sue
cessfully overthrown any single prin-
ciple advanced by the republicans that
has met with popular approval? The
democracy of the moth now charge

disaster to the democracy Of the north
Are not these signs OF disintegration
Are not the democracy of this state

republican to the highest Office within

Does this signify nothing? Does not
Virginia present similar spectacle ?

The Nashville American is coo>
ing most lovingly to the low tax
element of the democratic party.
Hear it:
That the low tax members will de.
mand such recognition as men of con-
victions and personal honor must re-
quire before they can consent to act
with another wing even of the same
family, is not only to be suspected, but
cay frankly that no result obtained
without that maintenance of manhood
and dignity, or by their sacrifice, can
be good for democracy or good for Ten
nessee. The result alone can be good
which leaves every democrat feeling
that he has violated no principle of
manly dignity and that he is an equal
member Of great party. II this
principle is kept in view by both wings
we do not doubt an easy settlement of
the whole matter and result which
will rebound to the good OF Tennessee
and of democracy.
There, now you have it. The
late boilers" will /" demand such
recognition as men of personal hon
or must require" What cree
ignition" is necessary Why,
it must be a recognition
which leaves every low tax demo-
crat feeling shat he has violated
no principle Of manly dignity and
that he is an equal member of a
great party How are the low tax
men to be convinced that they are
"equals?" Why ofcourse by yield
ing something to them in the way
of effice, and also as to the princi-
pie held by them that the railroad
debt Of the..state is invalid and ought
not to be paid, and that nothing
shall be binding until submitted to
and ratified by the people. IF the
paragraph quoted from the Ameris
can means anything, it means a re-
turn to the democratic platform of
1878, upon which Gov. Marks was
elected and postponement of the
state debt question to a more con-
venient season. And this is what
is "to rebound to the good of Ten
nessee and Of democracy If this
is the principal of which the demo-
cratic members Of the Legislature

mere pants and vest, pair of new buttoned
shoes and underclothing of good material.
In the pockets of the pants were found sal
in money and copy Of "Hasson's American
and European Railway Guide" Nothing
that would give the slightest clue to the
mahs identity was found on his person. A
square piece of bis shirt at the waistbsnd was
cut out, and the supposition is that his name,
which he did not wish known, WAS written
thereon. The man WAS about forty-hVe
