ED. ws-DEMooRAgi- On satnf'
day night there was submitted 10 o
large assembly, the spectacle OF an able
man, q leader, one will power TO inllu'

who con6de ip his intelligence and hon
or endeayorIng by misrepresentation
by sophistriea, lly appeals 70 hatred ana
10 tho basest passions that lie latent IN
the hearts Of men, 10 delude ana lead
astray his fellows,
For what other purpose and effect
we're the references 10 Texas and Ohio,
TO the records Of seven men OF the
oommitteei what that digging up the
buried skulls and bones OF civil war,
II not TO arouse animoaitiea and long
,tlled passions, which every man who
loves the Republic, who loves peace
rather than bloOdshead, who loves his
fellow men not only In Ohio, out South
md North, East and West, brothers all,
children Of the same almighty and low
Ing Father. Hopes have been inferred
forever In the graves OF the brave men
who lie at rest In the all embracing
arms of our universal mother earthi

Waiting tho judgment dAy'
The question under discussion wat
one Of economies, II is 10 be solved by
tho application Of known automatic
rutha and rnles, What endeayor was

lue instance, where, In trying TO show
now protection increased the growing
ut cotton, the speaker unfortunately
Tor the worth Of his argument,
attributed II In the same mouthful OF
words 10 the invention of the spinning

worth, whether Intentionally or not
paid Il compliment 10 the intelligence
Ut his audience, by not repeating these
but what IN left OF protectl0nial

Well might the qualtlng fetich OF pro-
lection, TO which he bowed tho 6uppl'
ant knee, had u voice, exClam; "Ihls
man h0nOrelh me- with his lips but his
heart Is far from nc"
Mr liutterWOrth knows that the same
reasons which he no well advances for
rec trade with Canada, are just 10 po'
/ nt mid sound for free trade with all
40 world Yet awed by fear OF loss OF
party place and power, he endeayOrs ~
persuade his countrymen who look to
him for instruction, that protection Is
uot indeed what II ls IN truth, a Gun.
uiugly devised system OF cxtorlion ana
uoak thieyery, designed by unscrupu'
iouA men 10 build up their private for
unes, and only for 40 long borne by
hr people because they have not here
rofOre perceived It's inlquity, Mr., Is
should not complain of the charge OF
inMnCerIty when he dares to coyertly
aud alyly insinuate that men on the
Ways and Means committee, his equals
"A intellect, aud integrity and IN the ON
teem IN which they are held by their
cuuutrymen, are dishonest ana Were
bought by Mr., Havermeyer,
"l.et the friends of the tariff revise
H." shouts Mr.. b., with voice and ges
ture that should wiring lnartlculate
cries of grief and pity from deaf
mute. When leeches, fattening on the
plmdered people, let so OF their own
iccord, when every sinner becomes u
saint, when congressman voluntarily
vote TO reduce their own wages, ther
viii the time for that be at hand.
But there's going 10 be revision,
ilr. b., aud by the sovereign people
That this protection fetch has existed
so long, does not prove the insensibility
Of Americans 10 sense OF right and
Justice, but that they have heretofore
neglected to investigate the question
Tor themselves and have been betrayed
by those In whom they trused. Half the
loss and wretchedness this system has
caused will never be ki o yn, but ut the
moment the glowing focus Of the
conscience and intelligence Of Amer
lea is turned upon that creature
Of the dark ages, II will shrlyel and
vanish like childhoods nightly grave
yard ghosts before the God Of Day,
Not to the great heart of the nature
That throbs In the mighty pulses Of love
and sympathy for The down.trodden
and oppressed, as well now for the
starving slaves of the protected Penn
,ylyania coal barons, as In years ago
for our black skinned brothers at the
South, did Mr.. B. appeal. Does he ever
stop to think what gave the Grand
Young party It's once resistless might;
It's life.blood, which now lost, leaves II
u crippled wreck, owned and led around
ring by James G.. BlaineY
Oh, yes, there shall be revision, Mr.
Butterworth. This rotton rag, social.
ed protection, cast off by Great Britain,
with which such as you strive TO bind
the slnewy arms of this young gi0nt Of
the Nations, shall be thoroughly revis.
ed, therefore:
We're going TO vote for Cleveland
IN tell you the reason why
No slapped the fetch IN the face,
And tho humbug's going die,
