likewise, iu the aggregate, forty-eight

have a white population of 5,000,

These Northern States have prac

is, therefore, evident that the

•' IN after my accession ami asked n
what were my views in relation to
removals from public service for
political reasons. One gentleman,
whose department is perhaps the
most important at the capital,said:
■•My office is full of extreme Re-publicans,
appointed by Gov. Cor-nell.
Now. what am 1 to do!'* "1

ACROSS THE CONTINENT.
Hut the achievement of the Re-publican
cause in the Eastare even
surpassed by the splendid victories
iu the West. In that magnif.ceni
cordon of States that stretches
from the foot hills of the Allegheny
to the golden gwlc of the Pacific,
beginning with Ohio and ending
with California, the Republican
banner was borne so lofty that but
a single Stale tailed to join in the
wide acclaim of triumph. Nor
shonld I do justice to my own feel-ing
if I failed to thank the Republi
cans of the Empire Slate, who en
countered so many discourage-ments
and obstacles: who fought
foes Ii i within and foes Irom
without, and who waged so strong
a battle that a change of one vote
in every two thousand would have
given lis a victory in the nation.
Indeed, the change of a little more
than 5.000 would have trausfeiled
New York. Indiana. New Jersey
and Connecticut to the Republican
standard, and would have made
the North as solid as the South,
thanks would still be incom
conceded to the Southern white
men in the government of the I'n
ion. If that be qnitely conceded
in this generation it will harden
into custom, until the badge of nn
feriorit) will attach to the Ninth
ern white man as odiously as ever
the Norman noble stamped it upon
the Saxon churl.
A DEMAGOGUE COMPARISON.
This subject is of deep interest
to the laboring men of the North.
With the Southern Democracy tri-umphant
in their Slates and iu the
Nation, the negro will be compelled
to work for just such wages as the
whites may desire—wages which
will amount, as did the supplies of
the slaves, to a bare subsistence,
| eqnul in cash, perhaps, to thirty
i five cents per day. as ; verage
over the entire South. The while
laborer iu the North will soon feel
j the effect ol this upon his own
\ wages. The Republicans have al
: ready seen, from the earliest days
1 of reconstruction, that wages in
'. the South must be raised to the
I just recompense of the laborer, or
'wages in the North ruinously low-ered,

fer of the political power of tbe

national misfortune. It is a mis-fortune
in producing an element <
which cannot insure harmony and r,,lll(.dercv
