claim the financial soundness and prosperity Of
the country as the natural result of the fnan-
cial policy we, as aparty, have sustained.
The resumption of specie payment having
been accomplishedoat the time appointed by
law, and the finances of the country being in a
thoroughly healthy condition, we regard it as
unwise TO engage in any new efforts
at fnaneiallegislation. The country is pros
porous under our financial system as tits, and
we knew, of no good reason why that system
should be changed.
The persistent efforts Of free traders to de-
stroy our tariff piece-meal by legislation, and to
repeal the duties on special articles, admonishes
us of the necessity of adhering more strongly
thanever 10 the tariff policy of the past twenty
years, which has built up our grand system Of
manufactures, fostered the revenues of the
Government and promoted our national pros,

business. Crude rubber has the quality of abb

large quantity of cheap and bulky substances
like lampblack, chalk, etc., which cannot be
detected by the uninitiated, and which impair
the durability iof-the goods. People call for
low-priced goods, not rejecting that low prices
always mean low quality The result is they
waste money on " wild cat rubber boots, when

Republican Consistency.

When in the sixteenth century the
Vicar of the parish of Bray. near Lon
don, who had lived through the reigns
of Henry the Eighth, Edward the Sixth
and Mary and into the reign of Eliza
beth, was reproached with his frequent
changes of principle. he made this
famous answer: mot so, neither; for
if changed my rubrics | am sure 1
kept true to my principle, which is to
live and die the "Vicar of Bray"
Possibly Flanagan, of Texas, the Chi
cago delegate who frankly admitted
that he was after the offices, can claim
descent from this ecclesiastic. Several
generations have had their proverbial
fun at the expense of that Vicar OF
Bray; and yet he still survives in every
member of the Republican party who
supported Fremont in 1856 and who
supports Garfield in 1880. Follow down
the political history of any one Repub
Hcan-and there are many such-whO
has happened to be a delegate to every
National Convention of his party since
the first one that was held at Pittsburgh
in February, 1856 At this earliest Con-
vention such a Republican found him
self an opponent of 1.-The imposition of
test-oaths as a condition of the right of
suffrage and Office" and on what he
called the centralizing and imperial
aims of the Pierce Administration
against " the right of a State to eXclu-
sively determine its own domestic af-
fairs" and he also then found himself
opposed to Z" the use by the Federal
Government of Federal officers and
of the bayonet in originating and
aiding interferences with the free
dom of State elections" At the
Fremont Convention of June, 1856,
such Il Republican found himself de-
nouncing the plea that administra-
tive right makes governmental right
and denouncing those spurious and
pretended legislative or judicial or OK
ecutive officers who were then set over
Kansas and who were sustained by the
military power of the Administration"
I'm 1860 at the Chicago Convention such
Republican was found pledging him
self to maintaining inviolate the
rights of each State in ordering and in
controlling its own domestic institu-
tions according to its own judgment
exclusively, as the balance of power on
which the perfection ana endurance of
our political fabric depended" He
was also there and then found denounc-
