Gratis in the United States. What is the use
OF pretending that the Resdlusier party Is
wor,hy the support OF any Democrat Can
il be possible that all the Democratic states
men In the United States are mistaken IN
regard 10 the matter?
Look at the subject calmly. General MA
HONE csn never again act with the Demo-
cratic party. lie has cut himself off from
ihst party by acts which cannot be con-
doned, a. he well knows, and he Will pro-
baby never sgain, after The present cam
palen in Virginia Is ended, so much as pro-
Tess 10 be a Democrat. The Republicans
are hocking to his Standards, not because
be fs Z Democrat, you know, nor because he
is 10 favor Of repudisting thirteen millions
Of the debt of Virginia as evidenced by her
oyu bonds and her own officers, but because
they recognize IN him a Republican IN
d.senisc-a senator who will hereafter act
w,th CoSKLrNG, CAMERON. DAWES, and the
other bitter enemies Of the southern pco
pie. But two great parties can exist IN any
country at once. The ReSdiuster party
cannoi escape the fate Of oil such factions.
T. win follow into the tomb the GIeenback
uarty, the Know-Notbing party, and all The
ether parties which have for a day and IN
particular States claimed the attention Of
the votes.
II Is. therefore, but q question q time
with the Readlust5rs OF Virginia Us 10 when
they will joiu the Republican party or re-
II 10 their allegiance TO the Democratic
party. The choice might as well be made
now a. later-this year as next. II is o
choice that has TO be made very soon. You
canno, defer the matter long. General Ma
HONE will shortly 90 to Washington,
and instead Of casting one vote
with the Republicans, as his friends
say he did last spring, will In
all probability align himself with DAwss,
HoAR, CAMERON, ard CoNELING, and become
a supporter Of ARTHuR's stalwart Admins
tration. The sooner the l;,Sdinsters real
lie the situation the sooner will they find
themselves in their proper position in the
ranks Of the National Democratic party
the sooner will they receive the plaudits Of
Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Car
olina, North Carolina, Texas, Louisiana,
and all the southern States.
We quote from our Georgia contempt
rsry
"The importance then OF defeating on
this initial field the opponents OF public
honesty and the allies OF the worst elements
OF the Radical party cannot be easily over
estimated. II should be apparent TO the
obiuse.'
This Is the message that Georgia sends TO
you, Democrats OF Virginia, whether you
be ReadiUsters or not. II you heed ii not,
you will repent hereafter. Let CAMERON,
LEWIS, and BLAIR march over TO the camp
OF The Republicans, but let every true Dem.
ocrat who is also a ReSdiuster take his
proper position under the 14g on which
are written the names of DANIEL, BARBOUR,
and MCKINNEY.
