Congress, with even the best Dsmocra-

the tendency Of which would be against
the Union, against the last amendments

The position Of the Democratic party
upon questions Of State sovereignty,
fLancs, tariff ana taxation is then re-
viewed, and the address continues:
There are numerous signs that the
Democratic party Is contemplating to
lay many unsupportable burdens upon
the peoples shoulders. The claim for
loss Of property during the war amounts
to hundreds Of millions now. They
would increase to thousands Of millions.
It is mot improbable that it will be
