The rise and march of the Republi
can party which culminated in the
election of Linco!u was but the protest
of an outraged and indignant nation
against the existence of the worst form
of human slavery; exis-tioy, too, in the
only free Republic on earth. Previ
ous to the election of LincolD, lha in
telligent patriotism of America was in
the Republican party; the first shot
fired cn Fort Sumter brought in the less
'ntelligeul but ho. jest patriots of the
land; and the defeat of the Union army
at Bull Run brought into the Republi
can ranks every m id who bad au in
terest in the preservation of the Re
public. So much was this the case,
that during tha war there were only
two parties Republican and Traitors,
Men essayed to preserve their identity
as wir Democrats and be luyil to the
Union at the same time; but they were
swallowed up in the great vortex of
patriotism that was known as the Re
publican party. From ih breaking
out of the war to in close, Democracy
was unheard of, unless where its virus
broke out in riots and slaughter, as in
Baltimore, New York, and . other pla
ces, and in the ranks of the Knights of
the Golden Circle. Remember that all
this time we were classing the true
loyal Democratic soldiers, who were
fighting under the Republican banner
of the Union, as Republicans. Many
others were scared into the ranks, and
some went to show they could be Dem
ocrats aL.d loyal at the same time. We
wish to speak without hurting the feel
ings of the few good men who have
held on to the old party more for .In
drew Jackson's sake than for that of
Andrew Johnson.
The Republican party, on the night
of Lincoln assassination, embraced
the truth of America in numbers and
caliber Lincoln was the acknowledg
ed center around which the great body
revolved. lie was the General lha
led the nation to victory. The man
who had the greatness in his 4,honest'
soul of blending all the elements, and
moulding them into one solid mass to
oppose treason and preserve liberty,
When Lincoln fell, the Republican
army los'. a General who has not yet
been replaced. Here is where the
great army that carried the starry flag
of freedom through the great rebellion
and brought it back crowned wi'h vie
tory, began to struggle. Instead of
one mighty leader to conduct the minds
of the millions into one single focus
and direct the patriotism and power of
the united party on the true road to
healthy peace, a dozen would be-leaders,
each with his own little admiring ring
essayed to take his place. The dozen
eaders divided the grand army into as
many corps, and each acted independ-
nt of tha other. This was the signa
for the scattered and defeated hosts of
reason to rally again aud attack the
integrated mas3.
The pigmy whom an inscrutable
rovidence and a conciliatory party
laced in the second post of honor, and
who took the dead mam's place, and
who should have followed up the pro
gramme of his great predecessor to a
severe aud successful end, betrayed his
trust and sold the cause of the people.
The army which he found in marching:
order, ai.d which bad cost so much to
perfect, and on whose unchanging for
ward course the hopes of the nation
depended, was halted and dispersed.
Treason was invited to hold its carui
vals over the graves of the loyal dead,
and a few renegades in power mocked
at the wrath of the people. Those
who had lail down their arms, and had
agreed to accept the issue of battle and
acknowledge their errors, grew coura
geous as the Executive of the victors
courted their consideration. Instead,
therefore, of having the South recon
siruted.and the nation at peace, treason
is as rampant in the land to-day as in
the palmy days of the rebellion. Men
who were silent, and gave sullen sub
mission to the law in the presence of
armed men, are now laud-mouthed in
their defiance of the same law, and are
The sympathizers with the rebellion,
and, of course, all the rebels, are
Democrats. Iu fact, the Democratic
t j party, at this hour, is but a grand. con
spiracy of all the criminals of the na
tion to get possession of the Treasury

Battle-fields at the expense of fourhun

who, while iuwardly sympathizing with

South during the war, vented their

For any recent seaming Democratic
victories, or, as we call it, the "Reha

have none but their leaders to blame.
