 The old parties are each objection able, not only on account of the bonds imposed by it's platform, but also on account of views it holds and courses it pursHes. The Democr atie party is old, decayed and demigog- ical, is offensive in it's record to q majority of the people of the United States and is too conservative to be of much value in making needed re- forms. The Republican is also old, decayed and demigogical, is incor- rect in the stand it has made with regard to maintaining the right of the negroes to vote and hold office, and with regard to the negroes in other regards and with regards to other men of like characters to those of the negroes, and does not nom mate SD as to manifest correct rC- gard for the life of the President elect; and is especially objectionable on account of its favors to capi- talists and mOnopolists and want of sympathy and friendsh p for poor white men who are op- pressed The Populist is the Gimlet Prophets (David's, Mahommet's Aaron Burr's, David J.

The ad vocates of the Independent cause seek to abolish all parties as par ties are ordinarily understood in the United States But each advocate of the Independent cause is himself a party; and the whole num- Der of advocates of the same consti- ute a party until the desired reforms in the constitution and laws he ac- complished,
 The reform once accomplished, par ties will rise by classification on ac- count of similarity of views. but will haycno compact to bind any such to be a party.

AN INDEPENDENT PARTY
A NEW MOVEMENT IN THE WEST. Gov. Fishback Recently in Receipt Of a
 Peculiar Letter From Quaker

While in Little Rock last Saturday night several gentlemen and the Editor of the GRAPHIC met Gov. Fish back at Gleason's Hotel. The con- versa tion drifted into National poli- ticts, during the course of which Gov. Fishbaek handed the writer n letter he had recently received from a Quaker in the West. The letter gives the details of the organization of new party, and is as follows:
 Hon. Mir. Fishback, Governor of Arkansas
 My DEAR SIR.-I wish, if thou pleasest, to ask thy attention 70 new move in politics and to solicit thy interest in the same. There is apparent a yearning on the part of the people for a better course in political affairs than either one of the parties hitherto in the field have promised or is likely to promise or give, and this move now in question has the character to satisfy the needs of the time to the extent that is practicable
 The move ill question in the h. dependent view of politics, which seeks to amend the constitution of the l.. $. so as to confer power on the U, S. House of Representatives to elect the President, sentences can didates to stand for election on their several personal characters, and each on his personal manifest rejects primaries and nominating conyen- tions, declines to accept platforms which bend and bind both candidates and voters to their great embarrass- ment and injury and frees from the domination of party, and in this plan, when anyone should be q can didate and does not seem to be it. he should he called to duty, not by nomination, but by solicitation.
 This view allows every one to do as well as he can, and it is hoped will result better than do the efforts of the old parties. One can be Independent and do his choice: but it is hoped the advocates of the Independent view will choose to practice duty
 This view is American, if We make it that: it is as well to do right in America as for persons elsewhere to do it. If any one can do better than espouse the Independent cause. wish that he shall do it. But my re- fiection leads me to ask what time is doing? What should we do? I hint an Independence better than pre- scribed beastliness and better than are the tenets of any one of the four parties hitherto in the field; and l be- lieye this Independence the bestcause that can be found practicable in the time in which we are moving. T0 in- yite votes and do justice to the cause each candidate should be the best man he can and should publish the best manifest that his situation and his possibilities will allow him to stand with; and the possibilities that men will find in this cause will result in higher good than has been i following in the wake of the old par ties. If it be polite and correct, we can prevail to accomplish the amend ing of the Constitution and laws as
 we need. without candidates fof. President, Vice-P President and Presi- dential electors, if we can elect enough Congressmen and Legislators to enable us to outvote the opposi- ] ton and the Presidents veto, if ftherc

FROM statement made in the Boston
Herald some time since, and repu blished
in the CITIZEN. regarding the observa-
tory that Prof. Douglass is to select 4
location for in Arizona, the
miscopception has arisen that it was
nothicg more or less than an annex TO
the observatory Of Harvard, when in
truth it is wholly an independent affair
1t will be known as the Lowell Obser-
vatory, 50 named after the gentleman
from whom it receives the whole of its
financial support. Mr.. Lowell will ac-
company the expedition as director.
We make this correction in justice to
the gentleman through whose gener
rosity Arizona is to be so favored. If
the observatory is located here our
citizens will be prompt to meet any ex-
penses necessary to that end, but If We
fail to VIII it through the good graces of
our climatic advantages We will con-
gratulate the town that is more for
tuDate than the old pueblo. Professor
Douglass is still in the Salt river valley
prospecting for atmosphere. From there
we learn he will continue his observa-
tions to Prescott.
