"Self-government for all." That is

would be if it were not applicable to a
irty that has not the germ of good
in its whole composition. Mr. Ad
ams does not make a distinction on
account of color. He does not pro
scribe any man, or drive any class of
men from the ballot box because of
their race. Mr. Adams speaks as if
he were indeed a scion of that noble
howse, a real son of that glorious John
Adams of 177S, hut not the least like a
modern follower of Democracy. He
is chuck-full of the Declaration of In
dependence and the spirit of the
Fourth of July, but the essence of
Democracy as shadowed forth by the
press of the North, Sooth. East and
West is non ct inventus.
"We must guarantee equal rights
to every man." How will the South
ern fire-eaters relish this? What
will the Garrett Davis's and the other
leaders and lesser orbs treat such a
sentiment? This thunder from
Massachusetts will not thunder worth
a cent for the Southern States. Why
does not Mr. Adams talk about "the
poor, down-trodden, tax-ridden peo
ple of the reconstructed States?" Why
not hurl derjunciations, hot, heavy
and loud upon .the "carpet-bag" ele-,
znent and the dirty "scalawag" that
curse God's chosen country? Whj
does he forget to rail about "negro

word as to the Amendments either,
which were "never, lairlv adonted"
according to Democratic shibboleth,
and no mention of "centaasra," no
curse upon the Republican Congress
and Executive. He does not even
hurl at the devoted head of Grant
the demolishing word "dictator."
Surely this man cannot be a demo

Nor is Tammany alone responsible
for the late rio:. Nearly every Dem
ocratic paper in the land espouses the
course of KeLo. They well know
lhat to the bigots of the country they
are dependent for political success.
As a sample brick we present the fol
lowing from the Omaha Herald of
the 14th mst. Speaking of the riot,
that paper s&ys the responsibility
rests "with the miserable Orange
men, who insisted on flaunting their
historical lanlges of religious secta
rianism, covered all over with the
mildew of dead centuries, into the fa
ces of their more patriotic country
men. The only regret we have con
cerning tnem is that they could not
have been forced to the front to do
their share of the fighting."
The ouly regret the Herald has is
j that the Orangemen, instead of the
Bomanists, were not killed. And
this for the reason that the Orange
men are not voters, while the rioters
were Democrats and ballot-box staff
ers. "Mildew of dead centuries."
Wonder if "historical badges" of St.
Patrick's day are not slightly covered
with the "mildew of dead centuries."
Then, on the same principle, Eng
lishmen should not be allowed to cel
ebrate St. George's day, the Scotch
St. Andrew's, the Masons St. John's, !
&C, they being "covered all over
with the mildew of dead centur

The July reports cf the statistical

due to the determination of the Cot
ton States to supply themselves. It is
assumed that the area of corn is equal
to 42,000,000 of acres, more than half
the total acreage" of tilled crops. The
only States failing in the increase
acreage in corn are New York, the
New England and PaoificStates. The

went times, to be once more" enabled
to make the colored man know his
place and keep it, we must be Demo
crats forsooth, and favor "equal
rights to every man." And here is
the style in which the fossils of the
almost defunct Democracy will re
ceive such a doctrine. They will say
it is a "trick." "It's some now fan
gled scheme to lead us into a pit-fall
and make Bepublicans of us. We'll
have none of It. If we must come to
such a condition we miht just as
j well walk boldly forward and an
nounce oerselves as Bepublicans with
as good a grace as possible." And j
they Wi u!d be nearer right than they
have beeii within the past ten years.
This candidate will never suit the
Southern Democracy unless he chan
ges his opinions wonderfully before
he steps upon the platform.
The editor of the Democrat, in his
last issue, says that in defending C.
C. Bowen, we advocate Free Love.
We would like to know where the
" free love" comes in. With the court
and jury con victingBowen.we argued
that technically, not moraliy, Bowen
was guilty that there was lacking the
intention to commit crime. Would
j the Dcmocrrt consign a man other
man a tiepuoncan ai. u. to nnson
on purely technical grounds?
The Democrat man is a refreshing
study this not weather. Represent
ing but the fragment of a party he de
lights himself in throwing ink indis
criminately, assured that none of it
would bespatter his friends. His
inspiring mottoappears to be, " When
you see a head, hit it." He imagines
himself like the ancient fisherman,
"Whose polo vrai! of the giant oak,
His line a cable that never brdke,
"Who battel his ltook with tigejV tail.
As he.sai oa the rock and bobbed for whales
But his efforts are so puerile as to
remind one of that other fisherman,
" Y.Tne pole wa? of the peacock's feather,
Hlh lirw made of the anesl tciber.
W1m baited his book trlth a mile of ebeero,"
As he sat on hit bed and bobbed for tie&s.'
Seymour, when addressing the ri
oters in 1SS3, called them "My
Friends." Hoffman didn't so ad
dress the rioters in 1S71. fevmonr
received the nomination for tho Pres
idency from the mobocrats in 1S6S.
xLouuian win lau receiving tne same
honor in 1S72. Seymour went on the
principle that "the good will of a dog
is better than his ill will." Hoffman
didn't court the goodwill of the New
York dogs, and he is now the subject
of their ill-will. His chances of the
Democratic nomination in 1872, are
very cold. The Democratic Com
munistic element Is "fonnnst" him,
and he can now retire singing "Put
mo in my little bed."
We submit to the readers of the
AmERTTSER and Democrat of last
week the task of determining which
was the advocate of freeove, the for
mer in endorsing what Bowen's judge
and jury were prompted bj- the facts I f a
and their sense of duty to do, and the
-rresiaenun answering tneir prayer
in his behalf, or the latter, in keeping
before the people as an object worthy
of emulation, one who, without the
aid of law or clergy, stepped into the
marital state, and now clamors for
popular recognition and endorsement
of such brevet condition.
History or tlie War la Eurcjie.
The National Publishing Co. of St.
Loui, Mo., has just issued a very val
uable history of the late War be
tween Germany mid France, from the
pen of one of our most popular writ
ers, Mr. James D. McCabe, Jk.
In a large volume of S00 octavo pa
ges, the author tells a wonderful sto
ry all the stranger because of its
truth. He tells of battles which have
shaken Europe to its centre, and the
consequences of which, even we "of
the Wes'.e.-n World must feel; of pa
triotism, heroism, military skiil and
statesmanship, never surpassed in
history. The author writes with the"
weight and force of truth, and the
great merits of hie book are its relia
bility and strict impartiality.
'1 he book is complete in every par
ticular. It describes the causes of the
war, and the events which precedad
it: the opening campr gn, and the
first reverses of the French ; the ef-

Standard American History of the
way of practice getting band-bills
struck and announcing that he would
remain several days after the Fourth
and soliciting a call from the afflict
ed. (We naturally supposed his prac
tice In Brownville was limited, and
from his appearance judged it would
be here, which proved to be a fact. )
The morning of the Fourth the ora
tor took the stand to deliver the ora
tion. At the very start it was seen a
great mistake had been made. After
boring our neonlo for half an hour or J
more by the way of introduction he
sallied forth In a political speech,
heaping vile epithets upon the North
for what they had done during the
war, and dwelling at considerable
length upon that senseless term,
'carpet-bagger.1' Our people were
insulted, and treated with the ut
most insolence. This Dr. Page, after
heaping abuse dpon abuse, aud show
ering it upon the heads of our peacea
ble citizens, who bore it with pa
tience, launched forth in flowery ad
jectives endeavoring to show that the
South was right In the late war, and
made every effort to vindicate that
lawless and murderous band known
as Ku-Klux-Klan. At this juncture
(our citizens began to murmer, for we
are loyal here, and the Ku-KIux ora
tor, the bigoted Dr. took his hat and
retired, while a host of hisses and i
shouts of "rebel" followed hiseareass.
I was surpri.-ed, almost stunned, in
reading in the Herald that his speech
was cheered, and congratulations ex
tended him upon his success. Never
was a baser lie written. Even Demo
crats in' our county pronounee him an
open Rebel a hostile enemy to the
Government. We have associated
with a large part of the people of this
county since the Fourth, aud not one
word of commendation have we heard
in favor of his speech, but universal
contempt is heaped upon his coward
ly head. During our nation's late
struggle, men would have been hung
for u-ing such language as he uttered
ou the Fourth at Pawnee City. He
ss.id thai the South, the Ku-ivlux-Klan
aud Jhe rebel army were the
mul of honw, bnt they were so op
pressed and deprived of their rights
by the carpet-baggers of the North
that they were compelled to resort to
means in their own power to defend
themselves from oppression." Such
language Jefierson Davis would blush
to utter.
On the aftorncon of the Fourth Mr.
McKenzie, State Superintendent, ar
rived in town, "and was waited upon
by a committee of citizen? and re
queued to deliver an oration, as they
had been so terribly disappointed dur
ing the forenoon. He dhl so, in a
very appropriate manner in a whole
souled and patriotic speech and nev
er once alluded to Dr. Page's harrau
gue, except when he said he "thank
ed God for carpet-baggers." Mr. Mc
Kenzie was londlv cheered, and the
disappointed assembly of the fore
noon now presented an enthusiastic
appearance. Toasts, addresses, &c,
were made, and the insult of Dr.
L'nzc s was lorgotten. Alt passed off
harmoniously, and every one was
delighted with the afternoon's enter
tainment. Dr. Page took his bed
immediately after dinner, and was
not seen till Thursday niornini- fol
lowing, when he was observed hold
ing a conversation with our commit
tee, and demanding for his language

Our citizens had subscribed upwards
of sixty dollars to pay an orator, but

her power to qualify herself as teach

she gives general satisfaction, governs
her school well, and children learn

On the morning of (lie National

triotic friends, including the flourish
ing Sabbath Schools of she neighbor
hood, assembled at ChrrSiie's Grove.
The rather stately trees clustered with
abundant and luxuriant foliage, with
nivitiag s-nade spread over nature's
fresh green carpet, made the chosen
spot selected for the celebration truly
inviting. High among tlie branches,
waving proudly in the breeze, hung
the grand okl American Flag, whose
ample folds swelling aod heaving and
gruceuixiy swaying to me ureal b o
heaven, seemed tit emblem of our
past career. Beneath the. flag traced
on canvas, was a motto the sentiment
of which, "Love of eor.ntry, of man
and of God," seemed but a retlex of
the burden of every heart. Appro

is an ugly waund. Th bail entered
