V ' 1 11.- members as the uominee for that office has outlined its policy and declared its principles, it seems to me that nothing in the character of the office or the necessities of the case require more from the candi date accepting Buch a nomination than tbe suggestion of certain weli known truths, so absolutely vital to the&afety a"nd welfare of the nation that they cannot be too often re called or too serionBly enforced. We proudly call ours a govern ment bf the people. It is not snch when a class ia tolerated which ar rogates to itself the managementof public aflaire, seeking to control people instead of representing them. Parties are tbe necessary out-' growth of our institutions, bat the government is not BT th paople ! when one party fastens its control upon the country, and perpetuates its power by cajoling and betray ing people instead of serving them. The government Is not by the peo ple when the result which should j represent the intelligent will of free ! and thinking men is, or can be, de termioed by the shameless oorrup tion of their suffrages. Whan an election to oflico sbxll be the selection by voters of one of their number, to assume for a time a public trust, instead of his dedi cation to the profession of politics; when the holders of tlie ballot, quickened by a sense of duty, shall avenge truth betrayed and pledges broken; and when suffrage shall be altogether free and uncorrupted, a fall realization of a government by ' the people will beat hand; and of the means to this end not one would, in my judgment, be more effective than an amendment t the Constitution disqualifying t!x3 Pres ident from reelection. When we consider the patronage of this great office, the allurements of power, the temptation to retain public places once gained; and, more than all. the availability the party finds in an incumbent whom a horde of officeholders 'with azeal born of the benefits received and lostcred by the hope of favors yet to come, stand ready to aid with money and trained political service, we recog nize in the eligibility of the Presi dent for reelection the most serious danger to that calm, deliberate and intelligent political action which mast characterize a government by the paople. A true American sentiment rec ognizes the dignity of labor, and tbe tact that honor lies in honest toil. Contented labor is an clement slat toned in American waters aud to encourage the home budget the Madrid Government always man aged to keep about one-half of the navy in and about her West Indian colonies; the expenses of all Spain's diplomatic and consular establish- and retention ot subordinates ments in America.

Tliey have learned that mystery and concealment in the management of their affairs cover tricks and betrayal. The statesmanship they require consists in honesty and frugalitv, a prompt response to the needs of the people a.s they arise, and a vigilant protec tion i" all their varied interests.

Moreover, the Cuban nomination oy nie wemocrauc con-1 budget m never discussed in vcntion at Chicago a candidate! Cortex all the expenses ot the Spanish con tingent to Mexico, which ended with the withdrawal of the Spanish forces under Gen. Prim, all the ex penses of the invasion of San Do mingo, planned by Gen. .Serrano when he was Captain-General of Cuba, which cost thousands of lives and millions of dollars; all the an nual expenses of the government of the island ol iernando Po, whose only relation with Cuba is that it is under the same flag; and, finally, the pension given to the Duke of Veraguaa, because he is a descend ant of Christopher Columbus. All this tribute was exacted from Cnba previous to the insurrection, though the taxed people had no rep resentation iu the Spanish Cortes. I lhis taxation weighed chiefly on the creole population, because they and not the Spaniards are the ag riculturists of the island; and the iniquity of it led to the declaration of independence at Yara with which the insurrection began. The war was a costly one to Spain. She landed in Cuba betweeu De cember, 1SC8, and November, 1877 nine years 112,000 traops. The transportation waa entirely by steamers. Some 50,000 of the troops were Carlist prisoners. They landed in tuna nearly naked. Tlie expense of clothing, arming, equipping, and feeding this immbnse body of men, and the cost of sending them to the front, were borne by the loyal Spaniards of the island. Spain im posed taxes, sequestered property, and nsed every hitherto known method of raising the sinews of war; but without the effective and almost unlimited aid of the Span iards of Havana, Matanzas, and other cities," the mother country would have been obliged "to let the wayward daughter go." Since the suppression of the re bellion, Spain has granted to Cuba representation in the national Cortes, just enough to swear by. As for any practical benefit to the interests of the island, this repre sentation is the merest farce. The FIRST CONGRESSIONAL DISTKI'T DEMOCRATIC ': VK.VTIO-V.

Editor Jouekal: From Smiths Creek to Pamlico the hand of progress has wrought its changes, but most notioer able is tbe Neuse river light bouse sub' stituting the old Point of Marsh light boat, and the placing of beacons to mark out the shoals whose whereabouts were formerly guessed at by the white caps of the breakers upon them. , At Pamlico there has been the great est change, in a quarter of a century, of any place in this changeful Section within that time. A solitary dwelling and a small farm has been ensngsd into a thriving and pushing village. 'And where the old proprietor was buried, as he wished, beneath the shade of a lone live oak, that he might rest Bear the scenes of his lifetime, in an awful soli tude, there is to-day the largest ceme tery in all the neighborhood: and the old man's solitude has been exchanged for the hum and bustle of a flourishina town. And tradition tells as that right about the spot upon which Dsu s mill now stands, was the first- shapel ever built in that section, which was for the services of either the Chursh of England or its oiispring tne Protestant ttpiscopa Church in this country.

" There is the old hand:toill, the old woolen wheel, the old table, the old mantel-piece, a reverence for which In spired the owner to preserve it, beneath which "we children''. all used to keep a reeord of our height and test our memo ries as to when each could first reach the molding on it; and-who could re-. member when they could .stand. under neath the lower ledge. These are all preserved In a condition, that sarries us back so perfectly to childhood hours that we even doubt the truthfulness of the old mirror when it seems to say "-look upon this picture and then upon that "and reveals the fact that we have .changed even more than they. Just to the East rests the hallowed ashes ef father. mother and sisters in the sacred spot Known aa "tne grave yard, "over which huge pines have cast their cooling shades, sounded daily requiems, and dropped their annual offerings of straw and burrs for half a century, and in which noble service the black gums have taken part and changed their hue froni green to purple and shed their rich fruit in annual regularity and faithful continu ance. But it is in the family circle that the change is most notable: the inant whose presence was of only a "few days' dura tion when I last visited 'this place, is now. a stout young man full of vigor. And, best of all, when we assemble around the family altar he appears ts conduct family warship, and ip humble and fervent voice presents our petitions to the Throne of Grace; thus filling the number of three generations that have led us at the same devotion, father, son and grandson, each ra their course, wjthin a period of forty years. Of five who had spent. their childhood in sporting around these grounds, three are present and one sleepe peacefully between father and mother in the silent tomb, while the fifth, and oldest, is in a distant county, and a letter from him serves as u faint substitute for his genial presence. Taking a lingering look at the things and scenes of the prcsr, we grasp the satchel and are off for the duties, pleasures and sorrows of the event ful rcsent. C Snpposfld to be CheUra.
