.liuner Of this country,s credit, caiunniator

.ligner OF this country's credit, c~aluniniator
of his country's honor, was a Democrat.
Every man that resisted the draft,
every man that hid in the bushes
and shot at Union men simply be-
cause they were endeavoring to en-
force the laws of their country, was a
Democrat. Every man that cursed Lin
coin because he issued the emancipation
proclamation, was a Democrat. Every
man who believed that & state could go
out of the Union at its pleasure, every
man who believed that the grand fabric
of American government could be made
to crumble instantly into dust at the
touch of treason, was a Democrat. Every
man that helped to burn asylums in the
city of New York, was a Democrat. Every
man who tried to fire New York was a Dem
ocrat-although he knew that thousands
would perish, and that the great serpents
of flames, leaping from one building to an
other, would clutch children from their
mothers arms-every wretch that did it
was a Democrat. Recollect it! Every
man that tried to spread the small pox
and yellow fever in the north was u Dem
ocrat. Soldiers, every scar that you have
on your heroic bodies was given You by u
Democrat. am q Republican"

den, unanimous and tremendous kick,
even from his own little borough, that he

probably, not n young voter In ten
knows that there is such a tax. Indeed,
we suspect that a search warrant would
be necessary to find a Democrat who will
admit that he ever was in favor of state
banks.
After the greenbacks came the national
banking law; and while many men took
part in framing it, three are entitled to
special credit: John Sherman, Ira Harris,
of New York, and Samuel Hooper, of
Massachusetts,. The last two gentlemen
have not received the credit they deserve
for their ability and industry in shaping
the financial legislation of the war. An
other congressman, whose services during
the constructive era, have been obscured,
is Hon. Samuel Shellabarger, of Ohio,
whose clear legal mind and wonderful
ability In exactness Of statement were In
valuable when the hasty legislation of the
war period had to be deliberately revised
and amended. When we consider that in
the very heat and fury of the greatest war
of modern times, Republican statesmen
revolutionized the whole financial system
and out of chaos evolved a stable cur
rency and the best banking system in the
world, We may well wonder that they
made SO few mistakes. Some crude and
hasty legislation there was, of course, and
much loss and embarrassment to indi-
viduals in making such vast changes in SO
short a time; but look at the grand re.
suit: In 1860 the traveller had to ''change
bills" from state to state; in 1880 the
American paper dollar was at par in
every state, and almost every nation, and
by almost everybody preferred for conve-
nience to gold.

sibly my statement of that geological

the name itself is appalling, and this
perhaps is the reason that the people
of Florida, who wish to encourage i'm
migration, merely allude to diamond
backs lightly and cheerfully as ''rat-
tiers" But there are 'rattlers" and
rattierS! The rattler of the North is
more or less common; few have gone

countering one. The better the ground

stick, and you might look with con-
siderable certainty to find me at the
extreme end of it.
The common name by which this
snake is known comes from the dia-
mond pattern which Nature, ever liberal
with her dyes and designs, has printed
upon its back. Nothing could be
neater or more becoming. And, so far
as looks go, this Crotalms is the hand
soonest and best dressed of his kind.
