plain. The Democrats of the North, il
is true, rs / have said, opposed us during
the war with as much earnestness and
vigor as did the Republicans. and without
their. aid the Union could not have
been preserved. No sane man can deny
this. a Republican would hardly ven.
sure to do so. But when the war closed
these Democrats who had fought us so
pefsistently remembered that we were
still American citizens. They remem-
bered the pledges made by the Govern
meut during the war. They held that
the Southern States were integral parts
Of the Unioc and not mere copauered
provinces. Cnhinching enemies in war,
when peace came they willingly recog.
nized US as brethren. They extended
their hands in token of reconciliation and
we grasped and still grassy these friendly
hands. We see the Republican party
now ga it always has been, in all its
changes and under its various names, still
the party of sectionalism. We hail the
great Democracy as National. We pray
to be delivered from envy, hatred, NAL
ice and all uncharitableness.' We cling
to the Democratic party because it prom.
ises to restore peace to the whole country
and TO bring about harmony and good
will among all its citizens. We have
been faithful to this great party in storm
as in sunshine. AS we did not desert its
banDers through all these weary years
when they were furled In defeat, we cure
ly shall not desert them now when they
are proudly moving on to assured victory.
We hope, We trust, we pray that this
victory may be as wisely used as it will
be triumphantly won. We believe that
it will be the blessed harbinger of fasting
peace to our whole country that It viii
bring back the government to the digni-
ty, the simplicity and the purity of the
pristine days; that it will cement the
Union firmly, and that it will make the
Constitution what it should be, not ouly
the supreme law of the land, but of the
rulers of this land. The South, if I do
not greatly misinterpret her feelings, pro.
poses in any event to stand by that Con-
stitution aud that Union. Both belong
to her by possession and by inheritance,
as much as they do to the North, and he
maligus mis- countrymen who says that
the South is disloyal to either. This is
the only country which we of the South
can claim as ours and, by the blessing
of God, we hope to aid in making it
prosperous and happy, worthy to be for
oil time to come the home of freemen.'

"A Fundamental Falseilood.',

To the Editor Of the Me,o York Sun:
Your questions are entitled to candid
answer. / will set down their substance
and give my reply to each one in the
order you put them:
!. Did I mean in my letter to MT. Blaine
that Gen. Garfield Acknowledged the receipt
Of stock and dividends iron, Oakes dimes ?
Unquestionably he agreed to take the
stock, and did receive dividends upon 1t.
The letter plainly implies that he had
not concealed, nor tried to conceal, that
fact from me. But his admission was
coupled with statement which showed
him to be guiltless.
II. DID he declare to me that he sDould
go before the Poland Committee and testify
truly Mnt he hnd knken ne s1cck 2
had no previous conversation with
him about his testimony before the Po-
land Committee, and did not know
what it would be until I heard il Geliv-
cred.
III. Did I aduisc and urge him to tell
.!.1 snc :; t7.:.I :!! .
No; certainly not. Such advice aud
urgency would have been q most out
rageous insult, which could not offer to
any gentleman of his character.
w. Did he agree to adopt khe lin ..f de.
fence suggested BY me?
You seem to think that was his coun-
sci. / was not, but, as hia friend, and q
believer in his perfect innocence, was
extremely anxious that he should get
safely out of this unfortunate business.
After it began to be discussed in the
newspapers, and before the committee
was appointed, besought him to make
no statement for the public eye which
might be inconsistent with what he said
to me. Lest he might forgetit, or miss
the important parts Of it, repeated the
substance of it somewhat carefully. He
did not reply, and learned soop AFTER
wards that he had authorized total and
fat contradiction. simultaneously, the
other members of Congress who we're i'm
plicated made separate statements of the
same kind, assuring tho public that they
had never taken or owned any of the
stock, or received any dividends upon IL,
". Why, according 70 ny understanding
of the fact, did Garfield adopt a defence 81
contrary to ttdt he had agreed on
have already said that he made no
agreement ahontit. His reason for aban.
, doning the truc ground of his defence

A bill was introduced by Casey
Young in the National House of Rep
on Decem Der 18th to pro-
vide for the construction of railroad and
telegraph line from Fort Smith, on the
line Of the Indian Territory and the
line of the State ofArkansas, to Arkan-
sss City, on the southern border Of
the State eff Kansas and on the north
ern line Of the Indian Territory. A
righto way is asked for, with the PRIV
ilege Of buying Government lands at
the usual price, not to exceed one sec
ton for every five miles ofroad located
and built, and also the privilege Of buy
ing one section of timbered lands with
in two miles Of the road for every five
miles of road.
This road will make a direct line to
Kansas and Nebraska, and give Mem
phis access to the immense grain fields
of that state. We congratulate the
people that they have in Col. Young,
representative who is alive to the de-
velopment Of Southern resources and
actively at work to enhance the mate
rial interests of this immediate section.
This bill is largely supported by the
best men in both Houses and its early
passage is confidently expected.

Washington special to the Cincin-
natl Gazette-Just previous to the
visit of Secretary Sherman to New
York, the officers of the Treasury De
partment we're expecting that he would
conclude to issue Il circular making
such an offer to the holders of the 5s 6s,
due about year hence, as to induce
them to exchange at least enough to
complete the issue of4 per cents, for
which the refunding act still provides.
A consideration of some points Of
the laws covering this matter deter.
mines the Secretary to await further
legislation by Congress. Some OF the
chief officers of the Treasury hold thai
he has full power to continue refund
ing until the $I84,000,0OO of Il pei
cents, are issued, in case the holders O
the outstanding bonds agree to the ex
change, although he has not right tt
call in these bonds for some time t.
come.
The Secretary is firmly of the opin
ion that no further funding can be car
ried on at less rate that 4 per cents.

Cooperative Stores.

When first cooperative stores were
opened in Engfand--that is stores
owned by workmen, each holding
shares in it and buying their goods from
it-there was no little derision. The
idea that workingmen could own the
store where they purchased the greater
part Of their necessaries, and carry it
on successfully and proftably year after
year, was regarded as preposterous.
It has been done however, and now CO.
operative stores are a settled and regu-
lar thing. So successful are they that
the retail storekeepers are in the deep
est trouble about them, for they find it
impossible to compete with them. The
goods sold at these workingmen's stores
are always to be relied upon, for they
are bought for the consumption of the
owners Of the store; they are cheap,
for they arc bought at wholesale prices
and for cash down, and only the expen-
ses Of carrying on the business is added
to the first cost. What profit is made
goes into the pocket Of the customers.
A few days ago large number Of re-
tailers met together in London to con-
slider their grievances; for that others
should sell more trustworthy articles
and for less money than themselves, of
course constituted "a grievance" What
could be a more complete testimony to
the entire success OF the cooperative
stores than this meeting? That mem
bers of parliament, and even servants
of the crown"-that is, persons in the
army, navy and civic service-should
have given patronage and added CAPT
tai to the stores that supplied cheap and
excellent goods to the people was strong
! ly denounced by the meeting. This
assertion of the meeting that persons
Of wealth, position and influence are
awaiting themselves of the advantages
of the workingmen's cooperative stores,
was another high testimony to their
value and property. The principal
| speaker of the retailers declared that
the cooperative stores sold at five, and
IN some instances ten, per cent, below
! themselves. The lord mayor of Lon
/ don was present at the meeting, and in
! his speech he said: ''There are natu
raj laws at work at this moment, wher
you cannot help people cooperating ii
/ they can sell at a cheaper rate. These
cooperative stores are largely support
ed by the readymoney which you do no
get. You are obliged to give credit
but these cooperative stores give ne
credit at all. They have not in the
aggregate the rates and taxes which
you have to pay. You have thousand
of shops where they have only one shop
and thus rent is very much less in pro
portion, and there is not the same pro
portion in taxes. Here is the test
mony of enemies as to the practicable
ty, the success, and value Of cO-opera
tive stores.

How the Gear Escaped.

In Moscow rumors are prevalent of
the arrest Of the engineer who drew the
plan of the mine which WIS exploded
on the night the Gar arrived there.
He refuses to give his name, but he is
thought to be anengineer named Sas-
cha, who had charge Of the suhterrane-
an works that were constructed ut
Kherson, and who stole several mill
ions Of roubles and Immediately after
ward decamped. No trace of the real
perpetrators of the crime has yet been
discovered. That the Cars train was
not injured by the explosion is, indeed,
due only to its preceding and not fol
lowing the usual brake train. This
change, however, was not accidental,
but was made in consequece Of an anon
ymous letter which was sent to Gen.
Drenteln, the chief Of the Third Divis-
ion, informing him that Il fresh attempt
was being planned, the details ofwhich
could not be given. Gen Drenteln
Immediately telegraphed to Lovadia
and caused the order Of the train 10 be
changed, ana both of them were fre-
quently shunted.
