There are the mal- contents of t lie South, who hope lor a failure of the new order of 1 hings, and who are acting accordingly, who dream the idle dream of a resuscitated old South, and. Perhaps of ultimate independence. They desire that the old or- ganization may be saved to be used as an instrument. Then there are the late day enthusiastic Democrats of the North who are vexing the public ear with incoherent twaddle about State Rights, without State remedies, and who. Alter doing all they coul...d to kill off the old demo- cratic principles, now stand around the lifeless corpse of the party uttering lugubrious protestations that the Democratic party shall never die! lake the priests of an Eastern superstition, after much incantation and astrolo- gy, they proclaim that none hut democrats must be ( 11 ) elected to office, for that they can settle the whole busi- ness according to the Constitution! Last of all come those political nondescripts who left the Republican pnrty after it had done all that they complain about, and joined the Democracy when they had become powerless to afford a remedy ; men who favored the war but opposed its consequences ; men who joined right lustily in starting the avalanche of revolution, but who now seem to stand appalled at the work of their own hands, and roll up their eyes in hypocritical horror at the sight of the destruction in the valley below.
