Year: 1868

clear that determined effort is being made to
carry the State of New York for Seymour and
Blair by fraudulent votes, and that for this
purpose an immense number of fraudulent
naturalization papers have been issued. We
have reliable information that the number of
tickets furnished by the naturalization agents
of Tammany Hall, is at least sixteen thousand,
and that third lot of eight thousand more
were ordered to be printed, and are probably
in use before this time. But every man knows
that there cannot have been sixteen thousand
honest naturalizations in this City this year.
The course of procedure in the matter is of it
self open to the gravest suspicion. Judge
Barnard ordered out of his Courtroom the
other day all persons but applicants and their
witnesses, there being present at the time a
member of the Bar who was taking notes of
the proceedings. Why did he do so? What
right had he to do it, in the face of the law
that 'the sittings of every Court within this
State shall be public and every citizen may
freely attend the same?" What work was he
doing there which made such exclusion desir-
able ?-N y Times.


Fall in ! fall in !" says the World in one
of it's stirring paragraphs under the lead Of
Seymour, we are marching on to victory. =
Seymour does seem to be helping things good
deal. He is trying to convince the Democrats
that Blair is of no consequence anyhow, and
that the Democratic Party will be utterly pow
erless to do anything for the country, if it sue
ceeds. The Executive can only be check on
! Congress, at any rate-nothing more than a
break on the railroad train. That may be So,
but the Government train has tried to run by
breaks long enough. 1t needs locomotive
now. The Democratic Party seems to be fall
ing in pretty fast already. The World need
not hurry it.

DEMOCRATIC FAILURE.-That party under

the total extirpation of the institution. 1t un


dertook to defend State sovereignty, and there


is not vestige of it left. 1t undertook tc


weaken and paralyze the national govern


ment, and. that is stronger than it ever was


1t assumed the guardianship of free trade
and we have become thoroughly and entirely
protective and American. 1t undertook tC
crush the Republican party as an unhealthy


institution, by refusing the Republican Sena-
tors any place on the committees, and by break.
ing up Republican meetings and mobbing Re-
publican leaders, and as the result the Repub-
licans have welded the destinies of the nation


for eight years.


The Democrats make great profession of de.


votion to the national greenback currency, and
urge its substitution for that of the national


banks. By this means they hope to get rid of


the well secured national banking system es.
tablished by the Republicans, and as the coun.
try would still have banks of some kind, they
would of course all be under State laws, with
a local and unsecured currency. 1t would not
do to make the issue openly in favor of local.


lied currency, but they get around it in this


way.


SEYMOUR S PETITION. Gov. Seymour plead,

the assumption that he couldn' do much harm


In the White House if he tried. Congress- will


be against him so he couldn't carry out the
