STATESMANSHIP.
In politics as in matters of business there are symptoms pervading either, that lead us to look ahead to see if we can develope by any logical deduction the better or wone condition of our political affairs. The gift of penetrating the future of our governmental affairs is Statesmanship, and can only be found in its excellence after years of hard study" keen perception, and cool judgment. No man can be regarded ae a Statesman who wishes to abridge many degreeJhe rights of his fellow man and no man can be regarded as a Statesman who sanction the bulldozing of white or colored men. When we find men who approve of such things, we should look upon them with watchfulness. The Democratic party has no true representatives of Statesmanship No northern Democrat can be regarded as a Statesman who is willing, now, to em brace the colored men simply to get his vote",while his Southern brother bulldozes him because he wants to vote the Republican ticket. 'As an exchange says,the|two specimens do not act from the same Motives. The Southern Democrat despises the negro becatgse he is a laboring man—a "mudsill"—who has no right to express a choice as to who shall control his governmentor expend his taxes. The Northern Democrat hates the negro because his Southern party yoke-fellow despises him, and approves of his being disfranchised because it gives his party an advantage. The Northern laboring man who votes the Democratic ticket to day, votes |to degrade Ms fellow-labor ers in the South, just as he did when he voted the same way to keep all laborers in slavery before the war. He, overlooks the fact that the oppressors of man have never been respectors of persons, but have been as ready to direct their shafts against those who aided as those who opposed them when circumstances rendered it politic. As in the days of slavery, the monstrous injustice corrupted and damaged the whole country, so now the frauds and wrongs being perpetrated upon the Republicans of the South will bear bitter fruit. In all that region the fundamental principal of our government that the majority shall rule is repudiated and derided. We cannot approve of this condition of affairs without endangering our liberties in the North. The continued existence of the Republic depends upon a free vote and a fair count. The solid South repudiates and nulifles this principle, and unfortunately a large party at the North approves the course of the South because it is necessary to party success. Unless this disregard of plain ustice is checked, its inevitable result will come speedily in the demoralization of our whole political system and the downfall of republican institutions.
THE SOLID SOUTH.
The two great questions that affect the American people to-day, are the sohd North and the solid South. Away back in the history of our nation, when tlie curs(| of slavery began to loom up in the minds of many Northern people, when the Southern States advocated for the first time, State Sovereignty, thereby holding themselves aloof from the General government from the day that the Northern heart determined that Slavery should not exist on American soil from that time the public mind has grown into the fact that there must yet be a Solid North against a Solid South. In 1,861 this Solid South plunged the whole country into a ruthless war. The Solid North came to the rescue of our government and made it by their swords and bayonets possible for that a Solid North and the Solid Soqtli to be a nation. The Solid North in its advocacy, that all men were created with equal rights, emancipated the meii, wome t», and children held by the Solid South as to many bctftsta. The Solid North made it possible for fOTir million human being to walk upon American soil without the stain of Slavery upon their honest faces. The Solid South thinks to-day that Slavery was right. The Solid North thinks thai Slavery was a curs^ and a relic of barbarism. The time wjll come when the Solid North and the Solid South will unite in saying that iWavbry was a curse, and the war o^th0 great rebellion to uiiorco the emancipation of the slaves was a cruel .wrong. But that time has not yet come, and will nevef come until the Solid South is,, willing to admit that'slie was wrong and is willing to aj that she is ready to obey the laws of the United States, and will give to any resident on Southern soil the absolute right to cast his vote wirH*vut Mm ir.terventionof the shot ^m ami secess* ton hull eo*ers. Until that Ss doc IW« Nation must de ruled by a Solid North.
What is the policy of this Solid South? Have they any fixed policy? "$•. the^ want to rule or ruin. Conquered battle they have not been toaquenni ia prin^ ciple, and they look forward to the elecj tlon of Hancock as a means to get possesion of the gener!d p»vemment

The reasons for rejecting the Democratic party are found in its ignorance of the people and their desires, in its ignorance of events and their results, and in its entire incapacity to reason from things that are to things that will be. Surrounded by a dense fog- of bigotry and Bourbonism, the Democrats have never been able to penetxatejt and See one inch beyond their noses.
They predicted t^at secession would be peaceable. It was riot. They, predicted that the States would not respond to President Lincoln's call for militia. Thev did with alacrity.
They predicted that an army of 100,000 men eouid not be raised. More than 1,000,000 patriotic hearts proved their ignorance.
They predicted that Union troops could not pass through Maryland. They wetU.
Tney predicted that the militia would refuse to cross the Potomac and invade Virginia. And their tramp was heard upon its shores.
They predicted that money could not be raised to sustain the army. And the people filled the treasury.
They predicted that Government bonds could not be sold. They were. They predicted that the people would not take the greenback. They did, as they would have taken anything else to help the Government.
I hey predicted that the greenback dollar would be as valueless as rags. It became worth one hundred cents in gold.
They predicted that grass would grow in the streets of New York. Instead there was thrift, industry and prosperity.
They predicted that England and France would fonn an alliance with the South to secure cotton. They were mistaken.
They predicted that "a stricken people in the Nortli would compel the Government to terminate the war." The patriotic people of the North responded with "the last man and the last dollar for the Union."
poverty-
They predicted that Sherman would be annihilated in Georgia. And he marched tramp! tramp! tramp! to the sea.
They predicted that Grant could never capture Richmond. But he said he would "if it took all summer," and he did.
They predicted that the war for the Union would be a failure. The Union triumphed.
They predioted that the Confederacy never-would be overthrown. Appomattox answered them.
They predicted that the people would never consent to emancipation. They hailed it with joy.
They predioted that the people would never ratify the amendments to the Constitution. But they were ratified
They predicted that the freed nfegroes would become a race of paupers. They are becoming industrious, thrifty, perseverfng and intelligent.
Tlie j» predicted that the people would never permit black men at the Tballotbox. Now, in the North they are glad to wheedle black men out of their votes.
They predicted that the war would terminate in a vast standing army and a military dictator.' The army dispersed to their homes, and the purified Republic lives.
They predicted that the child was unborn who would live to see gold or silver restored to the currency of the country. The men who conquered the rebellion have lived to see it.
They predicted that the interest on the vast public debt could never be paid. It has, every dollar, as it beoame due.
They uredicted that the National debt would never be paid. In fifteen years after the war the people have paid off nearly one-third of the entire debt.
They predioted that specie payments would not be resumed on the 1st, of January, 1879. And resumption o4me on the day appointed.
They predicted that the resumption of specie payments would bring universal disaster and ruin, upon the business and industries of the country! And resumption was followed by a wide and sure prosperity fr6m which the, people have reaped golden harvests.
These are but a sample of Democratic predictions, every one of which were quickly falsified. .:ZZZ*
How can the people trust a "party, or why should they change the Government into the hands of a party, so incapable of seeing or understanding the sure march of events -Detroit Post and Tribune.
It is announced by the Democrats that the Republicans have resolved on a sectional campaign: The honor of or%inating that kind of a cam-' paign belongs to the Democrats. They declared their purpose to make it when they claimed the 138 electoral votes of (he South solid* for their ticket, and the 75,000 bogus majority in Alabama Is the first fruit of the plan. The Republicans have merely accepted the ohallenge to staftd up once more against the infamous principles which Wade Rampton declares art* the same as those for which the South fought for lour years. It is the Democratic party which has raised the sectional flag, and it is that party which is destined to go down in defeat under it.—.V. r. Trt&xne.

If he has demonstrated anything during his service in the Senate, it is that he controls only one vote There is no doubt the Democrats need that one vote badly enough, but it does not look now as if it would enable them to carry Illinois.—N. Y. Times. 9m*A letter is published from the Hon. W. H. English to "a prominent Democrat," in which the writer, referring to the political situation in In diana, says: "With God's help we intend to hold the foi?fc." Since his nomination Mr. English has evidently been trying to scrape acquaintance with the Almighty. He is disposed to make new acquaintances.—Indianapolis Journal.

LIFE is a disappointment, chiefly because those who are starting in it overestimate their own strength and underrate that of their competitors. Selfsufficiency and ignorance are the pioneers of defeated expectations. The looker-on is not disappointed it is the actor who is. Overweening self-confi-dence refuses to see difficulties and thus the preparation which might Overcome them is neglected. The defeat is crushing, because it was deemed impossible. Presumption and arrogance have burned the bridges, and left no opportunity to gather the shattered forces by retreat. There seems to be no help for these blunders each generation must learn for itself. There is a point where teaching ends and experience begins. It is this which has set bounds to human knowledge. No man can take up the work of another. Where it has oeen left there it must remain. The father can not give or bequeath the child his experience, as he can his property. Men may Vaunt themselyes as they will, but there is limit to their power and that limit seems in some cases'to have been reached in one man. Shakespeare and Bacon have had no saccessom. No man has been able to take tip their work where they left ft. So far as man's efforts are concerned their works are complete. As they left them, so they remain. No man has yet appeared who can equal what they have done, much less improve upon it. As far as we know, they reached the limit of man's power in the direction in which they taught. The child ast mf ire the road just as the pare m»to^ it, and learn which is the ri-.^t road only whea too oM and weary to walk ki it. And, haps, it is well that it i* so. The wisdom of age and the form of youth can not be joined In hesoty. Could the young know their troe strength, and foresee the difficulty they eaeotmter. fiey would not fall by the way, but Wwukl faint in the beginning. Favorable circumstances bear men on to fortune to creates extent than the successful are willing to admit. In my own profession, those who ha$e achieved success is the early part of their career have fallen heir to the practice of a father or a preceptor. The inheritor of a practice is a whole generation ahead of him who Is the founder of one. '•-,«
