J OK E. The reform' element is stronger and more sincere in the Republi can than in the Democratic jwrty. says that delectable sheet, "Harp ers Weekly," which arrogantly as sumes to be a -"Journal of Civili zation." "Here's richness,'1 as Dickens would say, oily and mix tions, equal, to that which tradi tion informs us ran down from "Aaron's beard unto his feet there to" and beat anything in the way of a joke ever perpetrated even by Dun Ricc.-buuael that prince of Clowns. Tho reform element "stronger in' the IJepublican than in the Democratic, party is it! Can any thing le more false and absurd, its falsity only equaled by Its absurdity. Tho idea of the Hadieid party reforming itself, is one of the huge jokes of the seu soii, and eclipses anything that Joe Miller has left to admiring posterity.- ' Never sinco the formation of the government has there been as corrupt an , organization as the Radical party of the present day, that party- which has controlled the " destines of tho country for-j fifteen years. It 1ms dclwuched the morals 'of boeiety, it has shocked decency ty itsunblnshing exhibitions of shameless depravi ty, it has outraged tho public sen tiincnt of pi'opriety, and almost mado shipwreck of tho national honor.. ' Its corrupting in'Huence has tainted tho very atmosphere, and we tnay look in vain for any "good." thing to ' como but ' of Nazareth" so long as they hold the reins of government , Suppose wo admits for the sake of argument and , bo it under stood for Unit alone, that Hayes will be inaugurated Presidenrloes any one for ft momenta suppose that ho will be able to effect any reformation of tho abuses which have been for so many years suc- cossfully pracitfed by his pwty, Would ho have the desire to do so, and if so disposed, would he have tho mo'i al ' courage to ' act with that firmness and' decision' which the condition of the country de mands; WSuhl he. dare, to place himself in opposition J,o . tlie de mands of the leauersof Uie party to whom, ho is indebted for. his elevation from comparative obsciir rily to tho possibility of the high est position in the" land?' There is nothing in his charac ter or his antecedents to warrant such a supposition. He fsa man of negative character altogether, said to bo amiable, indolent, and good-natured, and just such a one who , would, readily yield to the controlling inlluence of others. If ho U a man of any' marked or pos- itivo chanu'terifitics, ho has so far lamentably failed to OJthibit them: he would bo a mere" cypher in his own administration,- a puppet to jump in any direction m which tho ites might be pointed by Morton or JJlaine. . There is nothinir of the Andrew Jackson in liis compo sition, and the sturdy honesty and unbending will of that "noble old Roman" is what the country now requires in the chief executive Officer. ; . .. ' , And these virtues are found most fully doveloped in Samnol J. Tildcn, for hr ' ns given imhsput 1 ftblo evidenc that ho has the nerye to to right without rega;d to consequences. In his official' conduct as Governor of New York le has illustrated , in the highest legree that sentiment of a grejit htatesnian'of a former 'epoch, that ho would rather be right than be 'resident. , He has shown that ho of Besses, in an eminent degree tho Roman firmness of "old Higko-, ry,".that ho - not only thinks for ' '"'l1 nmseir, out gewerully follows the a-omptuigs of his own judgment, iVird will not by anyj manner of Uieans bo sniiply a lump of clay in. .. . . ... - 4 uic nancs oi the potter. We want non-enuues. The idea of the Radical party i King sincere in their desire for ! reform is. ludicrous inleed Is there a member of their own par ty even who lelieves it ?. If there is, we advise Barnnm to hunt him down , without delay and place him on exhibition in his menag frio. ; He would draw-greater crowds than tlie Wotilly Horse or Uie Feejee Mermaid ' Gen. M. W. Ransom is worthy of the high honors he wears and of the many sincere and exalted compliments he receives from all quarters.. A . late number of the Panola (MiKH.)"Star"says that "la has shown himself to be the peer of the ablest, and has won credit to liimself and reflected hopor on tho noble old North State, one of the original thirteen,' heretofore represented as she has been in that august body by such men as a Macou,a Mangu'm, a Badger and a Graham, with whose honored names his will Ih? hereafter com mingled Pfl worthy of all honor and of deathless remembrance and veneration." Tho "Star" congrat ulates "the South, the North,, the East and the West. We congrat ulate the State of a Davie, a Ma con, and a Gaston, that she has tihowij herself still worthy of her ancient renown, which, for a brief period, was beclouded by the ruth lees hands of corruption ists and adventurers. " Her sons in Missis ppi still love and venerate her,and are proud of her nyble Ransom. All hail tho glorious old North State!" Tim s rA'ii; dijit.
