SATURDAY, JUNE 12, lSSa,
vFOE CONGRESS:
CLEMENT DOWD
or KECKLBNBTTBO. r ,
THE DEDIOCBACT. ' .
We desire to substitute the name of
Horatio Seymour for the name of Sen
ator Bayard, in the following article
from the New York Herald, and with
this change to indorse it entire: "Mean
while, and probably before a satisfac
tory investigation can be concluded, it
remains for the Democratic party to
set its presidential nomination in the
field. It may im;rvv.e the opportunity,
which has escaped tbe Ifepubiicab. par-L0ur
ty. we repeat mat tne pre-eminent
purpose of any party should be to pre
sent to the people a candidate who is
not merely above reproach after a
needful investigation, but above the
suspicions which raise the need of an
investigation. Is such a Democratic
nomination possible? t)des anybody
doubt it ? Will anybody hesitate, in re
sponse to that question, to pronounce
first and instantly among the available
Democratic candidates the name of
Senator Bayard?' TWith him for their
leader, with his fame untarnished by a5
suspicion of dishonor, the Democratiei
party well may win the State of New
York, and with New York the presi
deacy. Apparently it rests with Mr.
Tilden to determine whether this pos
sible nomination shall become actual.
Apparently it rests with this one man,
Mr. Samuel J. Tilden, to decide wheth
er a victory for his party and a vindi
cation of our national character shall
be assured or the noble opportunity
shall be w as ted-w nether the party
shall sit crouching on the mouldering
bones of its countless blunders and de
feats, or shall march into the sunlight,
fulf of fresh faith and courage, wiJh the
winds of triumph rustling among its
banners. And bow much of a sacrifice
does the improvement of this opportu
nity require of this old, careworn, dis
appointed, malcontent man? Nothing
but the.sacrifice '.of some selfish claims,
founded in his own heart-burning mem
ories of a miserable pastwhich, though
only four years distant, is almost as ob
solete to the real, living, vivid, impera
tive questions which are agitating the
hearts of the American people as are
the exhausted issues of the civil war."
THE OPPORTUNITY.
The ticket to beat Garfield in the
presidential race is Seymour, of New
York. There is no doubt of it. If we
can select such a ticket as will make
New York safe then victory is already
assured. As against Garfield the South
will undoubfedly"send up one hundred
and thirty-eight instructed Democratic
votes to the electoral college, and with
t'ie right nomination we can reasona
bly ount New York, New Jersey, In
diana, and possibly Connecticut. We
might as well confess that the wisdom
of the Cincinnati convention can- give
us a Democratic President, within the
range of human probabilities, or they
can put up a man who cannot carry us
through. -
We have not had such certainty of
success before us since 1860. Will we
improve the opportunity? or will some
Democratic blunder lead us again into
the vuagmire of defeat? The conven
tion must answer this question.
;
GRANT AS DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE.
Some crazy newspaper man, upon the
defeat of Grant at Chicago, immediate
ly suggested that he would make a
good nominee of the Cincinnati conven
tion, and at once proceeded to argue
that "the nomination of Grant by the
Democratic national convention would
be no more of an absurdity than the
nomination of Greeley in 1872." Per
haps not, but that man will be consider
ably more gray than he now is before
such an event can take place. One leap
in the 'dark was enough for
the Democratic party of the country,
and the experiment will hardly be re
peated. Of course success means a
great deal, but principles are dearer to
us than .success. We cannot couple
the name of General Grant with the
nominees of the Cincinnati convention,
and the Democrat who does so in earn
est is at once a fit subject for the luna
tic asylum.
PUNGENT PARAGRAPHS.
The following choice extracts from
late letters from President Hayes to
Gen. Chester A. Arthur, the Republican
nominee for the Vice-Presidency, will
be read with interest:
You have made the custom-house a
centre of partisan political manage
ment R. B. Hayes to Collector Arthur,
January 31, 1879.
-With a deep sense of my obligations
under the constitution, I regard it as
my plain duty to suspend you in order
that the office may be honestly admin
istered." R.: B. Hayes to Collector Ar
thur, January 31, 1879.
"Gross abuses of administration have
continued and increased during your
incumbency." John Sherman to Col
lector Arthur, January 31, 1879.
"Persons have .been regularly paid by
you who have rendered little or noser
vice; the expenses of your oflice have
increased, while its receipts have di
minished. -Bribes, -or gratuities in the
shape of bribes have been received by
your subordinates in several branches
of the custom-house, , and you have in
no case supported the effort to correct
these abuses." Secretary Sherman to
Collector Arthur, January 81, 1879. ;
A gentleman in Whose opinion Thk
Obseeveb has much confidence writes
us a communication to suggest what he
calls a winninsr ticket... It is Horatio

with but four dissecting voices :
That, while the Democrjatsfof La Salle

their wisdom may nominate, yet we

Statesville landmark. '
We say and we repeat that' we have
never known in the politick of this
State, or heard of in the politics of any
other, anything so utterly scandalous
and disreputable as the manner in
which the Hon. Thos. J. Jarvis has
been and is being hounded down by
men of his own party in the interest of
J udge Fowle. The assaults which have
been made upon his private Character,
and the sneers which have been utter
ed against his helpless arm, have been
so very villanous that we greatly mis
take the character of the people of
North Carolina if they do not on the
17th, inst. give thi3 man a substantial
manifestation of theiiTreneWed confi
dence, and administer to these asssas
sins of private character a rebuke such
as they will never forget.
The Issue. ,
Mr. Blackburn, of Kentucky, when
asked about the nomination ot, Garfield,
is quoted as saying: "The nqmination
of Garfield s is the closing aet of the
tragedy which made Hayes president.
The strikers in Louisiana and South
Carolina were rewarded for their ser
vices in the electoral frauds- pf 1876 as
soon as Hayes was safely installed in
office. Sherman was made secretary of
the treasury; fat posts and? missions
were given to the visiting statesmen
and other participants in the crime.
Garfield alone'had not been rewarded.
Yesterday hiyobrigation was Cancelled.
If Hayes had been nominated; the fraud
issue in the next" campaign could not
have been stronger. Hayes culd plead
that , he did not steal the ptesidency.
He was the fence the recivef of stolen
goods. -Garfield was one of tjie princi
pal robbers." t : )
