The Democratic Revival.


We hear a great deal said py political
writers and speakers nowadays of the
principles of Jefferson and jackson,
Democrats recurring with pride anu
pleasure to the record and doctrines OF
those great leaders, and Republicans, in
many cases, trying to heap ridicule on
the Democrats for so doing. That
careful study OF the lives and political
principles of men whose influence was
paramount in determining the character
of our Government must be of value.
is evident. Why Democrats are so gen.
orally turning back to the records OF
Jefferson and jackson at this time is,
says the Newark Journal, g because
they see that the people are sick and
tired of sham Republican rule, rule
which under the name of Republican
ism is despotism of money and CEN
tralized power, and which robs the peo-
pie in order to rule them and rules them
in order to rob them, and because they
see that for the sake of the people and
for the sake of the party nothing can be
so wise and beneficial as a genuine re-
vival of Jeffersonian and Jacksonian
Democracy" Why should political his
tory be different from general history
If study of the latter is wise and USE
full, why not study of the former? The
study of the lives and characters OF def
ferson and jackson by Democrats Of to-
day cannot fail to be beneficial in the
highest degree. Such study is sure
to make Democrats more Democrat
ie than ever; to excite in them in
creased faith in the wisdom OF
popular Governments; to,aWake and stir
up in them the old love for principles
and not men; to arm and equip them
| more thoroughly than never so as to COM
bat and beat down under our feet the
Satan of Capitalization, and to gather
new hope, new courage, new strength
and new determination to wrest the
Government from the control of an or
ganization whose whole political creed.
as formulated in its acts, may be pre-
sented in one single word-sPOILs. The
reason why so-called Republicans are
Just now worried about the Democracy,
and their recurrence to jefferson and
jackson, is the fear and dread of the
effect of such study, not a1oneTupon
Democrats, but upon, independent ;citi-
zens of all parties. The Republicans OF
to-day are Just as bitter haters Of JET
| ferson and jackson ais were their fore
! fathers, the tederalists. The latter
hated Jefferson and Jackson, with a
hatred equaled only in intensity by the
hatred of some extreme Republicans
towards Democrats during and subse-
quent to the civil war. Let Democrats
continue to excite this hatred. The
more they preach and practice the prin-
ciples OF Jefferson. the more the people
will love them. Let the Jefferson and
Jackson revival go on. The very hos
tility shown it by the Republicans, dis
guised Federalists, is the best proof
Imaginable of its value and of the
wisdom of continuing and enlarging its
scope. 1t is a sound policy to always
dowhat the enemy dislikes. -Neso Hauen

A Water-Haul.

) The old saw that consistency Ii q
jewell is regarded as afoors motto by
our Republican opponents. They are
giving us proof of this every day, It is
useless to base any calculations as to
what that party will do upon what it
has done. Of course it is safe to as
sumo that it viii juggle with the truth
and thrust its sinuous arm into the rich
est layers of the treasure that reposes
in the public crib, whenever it gets an
opportunity. That is part of its reli.
gion as much as it was part OF the old
crows creed to steal the farmers corn.
But on all questions which rise to the
dignity of public policy, it trims its sails
to overtake the plumber that is nearest.
We have seen it make all sorts of unholy
alliances at the same time that it de-
claimed against the purposes iof its
allies. Republican orators would scat
ter with a lavish tongue glittering gen.
eralities about maintaining the public
credit, and then help their party to
stand sponsor for the most shameless
gang of regulators that now infests
any Statein the Union. They preach
against the theory, but stand at the
backs of those who enforce it, inverting
the creed of those Prohibitionists who
were lin favor of the law but agin its
enforcement. But the party has now
INDUCED even in a less consistent per-
Torrance than its recent successful eff
fort to establish the principle Of repu-
diation in Virginia, though not one that
is so fraught with evil to the country as
its utilization with Malone and his CO.
rascals It has taken .sMorey'' to
its bosom. The Democrats long ago
came to the conclusion that athere
warn't no SIGH a rerson,'' and aside
from his adopted parent, Josh Hart, mo
member of that particular Moreye family
has yet faced the public. But Josh
Hart, whose gore less than a year and a
half ago these Republicans were SO
yearning for, that they forced him even
to tears with the perseeutionss heaped
upon him, is now member OF the Re-
publican Central Committee in. New
York, one Of the newest and OF. course,
most honored of the recruits to that
organization. AS a matter of form, and
to complete his preparation for the dis
tinction conferred upon him, Josh Hart
has been trying to find a scape-goat
upon whom he might saddle the onus OF
his Morey letter, but thus far with In
different success. He was responsible
for its publication, and he defended it
as long as there was ragged edge to
hang upon, and the Republicans are
willing to postpone his promised yindi-
cation of himself or take him on trust.
for he is such an acquisition that they
need him now. When Dittenhoefer
came to the Morey crowd armed with
promises of g consideration was it the
beginning of bargain that has since
been consummatedP 1t looks that way,
and as we can afford to be courteous,
even to our opponents. we Congratulate
them upon the success Of their angling.

entitled to said letters. Suffice to say
that all was satisfactorily arranged at
last, and Tom. armed with authority,
proceeded on his mission.
We were ushered into long room,
lined with great presses, presided over
by a solemn, gray-headed old mana fit
custodian of dusty relics. We told him
our errand. And how his slow, method
ical movements tired US it is impossible
to express.

you have in your custody certain letters
addressed to the following persons. ;"
Then we handed our credentials and
list of names.
The clerk adjusted his glasses, opened
one of the presses. And how he poked
| over the papers, turned them first in
one light, then in another, while we
| fidgeted like two schoolboys. Yet it
was not surprising that the man was so
slow; most of the Letters were old and
| faded and yellow. Of some, tattered
and almost inegible, copies had been
made. At last the tiresome search of
this press was ended. The old man re-
sumed his glasses, wiped them affec-
| tionately, shook his head and said: 81

Let me look for the others on your list. -
We stood in silence while the Rs and
Is and Fs were examined, one after
the other-result, nothing. The Bs
alone remained, some hundred names
beginning thus. At last two letters from
among them were placed to one side.

From a letter dated the 18th of last month we
copy the following: "On Friday evening, the
9th inst. Inns. Nelson, Commodore Erskine,
put IN an appearance, bringing Bishop Selwyn,
Archdeacon Clarke and Mr.. Rice, the two latter
on a visit to the mission. The Commodore
landed with his guests and spent the evening and
the next morning at the mission, visiting the
several places of interest on the island. The
ponderous war ship was an object of great at
traction to the islanders, and through the
courtesy of the Commodore, who gave a general
invitation. was visited by nearly every inhabitant,
old and young, during Saturday. In the evening
the ship exhibited the electric light off the mis-
sion, the first time it has been seen here. The
strange sight was with ssed by many people
who were much interested, the native boys
actually bowling with delight. 1t was arranged
that the Bishop should go off on Sunday and
take the service, the Chaplain coming ashore and
doing the needful in our church, but the weather
was not propitious, so, after signaling 9 adieu
to the Bishop, the Commodore went on his way
to Sydney"

the comet referred to in a Sydney cablegram,

from the kilograms we publish below that the

to equal the planet Jupeter III appearance.
