BUSINESS INTERESTS AND POLITICS.
Aside from the preponderating influence
of the representatives of the repudiating
constituencies of the south which will
undoubtedly continue to direct and con-
troll the democratic party, the numerical
weight of the greenbackers in its ranks, the
large number of its most popular leaders
who are committed to the theory of unlim-
tied issues OF greenbacks, are elements
which, together with the generally low tone
of intelligence in q majority of the party
leaders, constitute forces that hold the better
element of the organization as in wise and
bind the democracy if they should obtain
esntrSi OK our affairs to immediately put
into practical operation the widest and
most dangerous theories Of finance and tax
alton. The paucity Of men of brains and
training in the democratic party, men who
are alive to the absolute necessity of main
tanning a sound currency, could not fail to
create apprehension in intelligent business
circles if the election of democratic presi-
dent were thought to be a possibility. Espe-
cially would this be the case at the present
time, when the candidate to that high Office
is man totally ignorant of public and pri-
yate business without a single idea that he
could formulate in his letter of acceptance
upon the all-impOrtant topic of currency
aud fnance-a man who expressly says he
has no policy of his own upon this or other
public questions, and who admits with the
most charming RaiUete that he will approve
of all legislative measures passed by his
party in congress. What a contrast is this
man to TILDEN! Totally unscrupulous as
the latter was, he had the views of states
man upon finance, and was not so emascu-
lated of opinion that he dare not express it,.
For instance, the assertion that he would
veto all legislation favoring payment Of
fraudulent or unconstitutional southern war
claims out of the national treasury; hence
the intense hatred which the south bore
toward him ever since.
Mr. BAYARD is absolutely the only dem
ocrat of prominence who is thoroughly con-

ries and legislation. Every vote taken in
either house of congress last session (when
the party was on its best behavior) every
move that was made, every speech Except
some of Mr., BAYARD's) that was delivered
by the democrats in congress is damning
proof of the inherent and neradicabe ten
dency of that party to dishonesty in Guan-
cial legislation and of the inevitable yield
ing of the better element OF the party to
the overwhelming influence Of the main
body. The rebuilding Of the public debt,
one of the plainest and most practical mea-
BSsos Of public economy ever prese nted to
