' ' ' v But the thirteen - could not have carried out success, ally their pur poses, if all the remaining Democrats had continued true. There were five Democrats who , absented themselves just in .the ; crisis, and thus allowed the army t bill to pass, Tkey were Sayler of 1 Ohio, Clarke of Kentucky, Walker and Douglass of Virginia, and Morse ': of Massachusetts. By this act of cowardice or infidelity, they gave victory to the Radical cohorts at a cost of nearly eight million of dollars to the country. , hit has been declared, and possibly upon good authority, that if a dozen or twenty more absentees had been necessary in order to" secure the tri umph of the Republicans they could have been found. And 'why - not? If thirteen could be found to vote with the Republicans upon a measure of vital importance, and five could be induced to stay away and not vote at all, why could not ten or twenty oth ers be found equally obliging and' agreeable to Radical wishes and plans? It iB "not without an appear ance of good reason then that -the. great German paper, the Staats-Zei tungt should say ,; "Weshall certainly not be mistaken, if we conclude from the result of the conflict over the army bill, that the administration has no occasion ' to fear ' any so of chi- canery from t be Democratic portion of the House.
