The Democracy of General Grant. fcjnce General Urant has been1 elected by so immense r 'majority,'. It .'ia , lustily asserted by the Democratic r Journals thai be ia, and always has been, a rear Iem ocrat. Undoubtedly he isMya tbrwii Werkty,) and that la his first radical jiffareronce wflb tU'Dem uratio party General Grspt ia s Democrat, aad tho.Detuooratio pirt;, if, to i bn been for a generation, the instrumental an aristoerscy, For what is it to be a Democrat in the true sense of the 'word? Certainly it ir notto do what lavo-lordi command, and to vote as a King or Jains.' Hut that is what, Democraoy' basbeeti for 'many a C;:i'A5o -sfctke l,r,y was Just what the alare-mantcra thuüght the intcriMa of slavery teuircd., . The great Djeaauree of the party during . tho twent) years before the war were the antiexatioo of Texai and tha repealof the Missouri Compromise, while every. miner measure was tested by its degree of service to the am great en J of the supremacy of alar. ery (n the government. This ijsttm was the denial au d outrsge of " every human ribt; but the party existed and struggled for no other end, and atill. called itself Democratic. To ' he a Democrat was to apologize! 'for slavery, and defend Itj tb sneer at a part of the population as of, an inferior race to be abused at pleasure, and consequently to stultify tha moral sense, to sophisticate and prevaricate and tostruggie enuiesaiy wun every generous uumsu instinct, with religion and civilization lf , ! Thia was to be a Democrat. It wade no difference that there Wis a plea thsfit was a subject upon which nothing could be done, and. therefore. upon which no thought should be expended; that tberi wua'an lncoetiant talk, about State rights, and limited powers and original compromises. ( Jhe one fact that wss steadily elear through all tha obscurity and . con fusion was that a Democrat was a man who supported the practical assertion that lurue men bad no 'rights wbicb other men were bound, to respect. 'And it was this tragical absurdity which has been driving the best men out of the Democratic party for twenty years. The old and true Democratic paper in N. Y.'city is the "Evening Poet. . How long since it has been technically a Democratio paper? In the true sense of Democraoy, or respect for equal rights, who are and' always have been ataochcr Democrats than its editors, Mr. Rryant, Mr. Godwin, aod Mr. Nordbofl Uut what have they bad to do, what could they have' to do, with a "Democracy" which drew its insptrationsjfrom Calhoun, with bis doctrine of slavery as tho only sure foundation of a free government; which followed a dozen years sgo the leadership of, Ilsmniond and bis associates, sneering at free laborers aa mudsill!"; aod which accepted in this last election the dictatorship of Wade Ilamptou and Robert Toombs, their hands dripping with the blood of loyal citizens of Forrest freef from Fort Pillow, aod Semmes from tbe Ahbat)at . - ' To be a true Democrat is to reject with scorn every distinctive principle that tbi Democratio party baa professed for a generation, and to disown all its . acknowledged chiefs from' Calhoun to Seymour. To be a true Democrat ia to believe in tl e equal rights of men, : not of . States; and to organize that faith in law; it is to re ject the resolutions of '08, and to ac knowledge the necessary subordination cf the States to tbe Union; it la to oppore every kind of hostility of race, of interest, and of section in the country; it is to iusist upon an economical and honest administration of government; it U to be neither a bully to the weakest of foreign states nor a sycophant to the strongest, but reasonable, firm,, and self-respecting with all; it is to foster to the utmost free schools and churches; to demand absolute freedom of speech and action everywhere in the land; to keep tbe national honor unstained; it is, above all, to see that jus tico is expediency, and that the mainte nance of the equal rights of men is iden tical with true polioy. This is Democ racy, or the practical assertion of the rights of man. This is exactly what the Democrats who voted for . Mr. Seymour have opposed. Thia ia precisely what General Grant accepts. If be b a Deui. ocrat, Horatio Seymour is not. The Dem ocrats of to-day will find small comfort in General Grant until they renounce what is now known as Democracy. New Stale Officers.

THE GREAT VICTORY;; ' ; it i IIabbikon.Ohio, Nov. 10ih,'J8G3. , Editor or Indiana. American,- . ' Dear Vir; One of the bigbeM prcropa tivoa enjoyed by American' citizens is tho right peaceably to assemble togethot lor tbe discussion of questions of publik iotercst, or. to seek for the redress ofgriev a net.' During the past week, a majority of the citizens of the' United States bare been ezercisicg this high privilege; not, indeed, dinousaiog the questions of tbe day, for they have received a quietus at the ballot-box; nor 'yet seeking to redrvss any real or fancied grievance, for the true patriot, just , at this particular juncture, does not feel surcharged with grief! But they have met together all over th land, with bonfirea aud illuminations, wiih banners a hd songs, with shouts of joy and triatnph, to celebrate a guiat victory! , A little more than fifty years ago, the placid waters ot Lake Krie, on our northern frontier, were agitated hy the conten ding btnfe of two hostile ficota. The one a part of the great navy of that proud and arrogant natiou, who claimed to be the mistress of the seas, aod tbe other,, a part of the little navy of our then young. and growing Republic .The contest was short and decisive, and victory rested on that starry banner, whose folds have since floated ao proudly over the defenders of the Union, on the bloody battle-fields of the ill. starred, but "sunny South." On the occasion alluded to, our gallant commander in, announcing bis victory to headquarters, used thcbo laconic aod historic words; .' We huve met the enemy, and they are our!'' On. tho 3rd day of, November, 18GS, we, tho loyal people of the Uuiou, OiCt the enemy, and they are ournl . There are men living, advanced in years, pohsibly Revolutionary soldiers who have often joined in congratulations over the political defeat of their adversaries; but never, I question, have they, or any of us, ever been called upon to rcjoioe over a victory like thin! and why? Because io previous Presidential contests, the issues presented were not of such stupeudoai moment such startling importance, never involving, as those of. the recent contest did, the welfare, the prosperity, tho perpetuity, the vilalitij of the Republic True, four years ago, the Democratic party in Convention at . Chicago, declared the war a failure, and rebellion a success. But tbe loyal masses were not prepared to believe it, and tho party, guilty of so infamous a declaration, given at such a critical juncture, when tbe life of the nation was banging," trembling in the balance, that party, I ssy, received an emphatic rebuke by the triumphant re-election of Abraham Lincoln. But itr' the recent coutest, the Republican party has had arrayed against it, its old enemy of the past, re-enforced by draft-sneaka and skedaddlers north, and malignant and unrepentant rebels Bouth, and for it to have triumphed over so formidable an opposition, is indeed,' to us, matter for , tho liveliest congratulation. But an other importance attaches to this victory. It is a grand jnoral triumph! a triumph of right over wroug, of tree doiu over oppression, of truth over error, peace over wart When we read the record ot tbe past, wo love to dwell upon the glorious achievments of our fathers, and tbe no less noble dcodj of daring of our comrades in the war of the rebellion. We point with prido to Yorktown, New Orleans, Buena Vista, Yicksburg' and Gettjsburgh, and yet the lustre of these achievements illustrious though they arc, dims before tbe brightness of tho bloodless sad peaceful victories of tbe ballot I Had the result of the recent election been otherwise, had the Democracy succeeded in electing their candidates, when we contemplate the signs of tho times, and lead the experience of the past, it would not have been difficult to predict the consequences that would have followed. Con-fu.-ion would have run riot, law would have been a nullity, the incendiary schemes of Frank Blair would have been carried into effect, and the nation again plunged into all tbe horrors of a civil war! 'But thank God, this sad picture will fail to bo a reality. Order wiLLrtit, the laws teilt bo respected, and peuco agaiu bless our redeemed Union. We are to hare a man for our next President, whom the peoplo delight to honor, and who, io return, will honor and respect the will of the people!

Wi'l you indulgo the fond hopo that tho enemy is so demoralised aua vanquisuca as to be unable to ouiu rally for another bittlo'

Perhaps 'wV do uol"run any fik of offeudinu our Demooratio, friends in tbe lYcnt when we saV that the New York ''ring1' of Democratio politicians !arc. tbß niosi pcconipiiKjiou raocaia in ine rourury, nd not .exceeded in trickery anywhere in mo wuiiu. j cuusincrsbio iiuu-uh ot coud lMOOcrata wlo btitooed to tbe l'en dlcton Kscort, would," we are confident, confirm what we sat. It nilv be t rctitable to recollect at this point tbe tailing of the Democratic Convention ;ui :ibuo In New York, the acl-i:tfoi' "f tbo several fctiate deletrationa so aa to "prevent close connections, between theqi, and to subject them to all the manipulations of tho New Yoikers the faet that hVymour wss msdo J'retiidfjit of the .Convention, and Mutpby Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions, and Belmont Chairman of tbe National Kxeputivo Conimitteoto say notliing of Seymour'a nomination for the prtMdcnvy. Mr. Pendleton's friends were inet iti New York by an Outcry tlist be' would not carry tbe State of Now York or any of tbo Kantern States, while sotuc one elce milit. After the nomiqatiou of Seymour, tbe 'lmmany Chief and Mayor ol New York City, Mr. ' Hoffman, was. "nominated for (ioveruor, aud then tlre wus appureiit the parpose of uarrjlug the' Suto ' A r fh'ffiuan at all hatnrdi, while there wm i'Mitparutive iiidiflureixe ubout ' Seyn'our. The New York ring wns, beyond dubt, ready to sucriüce the Presidency, if need bo, and it were possible, to secure' their own ascendency ia the State and city. The hopo that the name of Seytuoar might be ueful to, tie ring canned the coiibeiit of the New York delegation 'to bis' nomination when they bad prepared another plan of operations. It was perfectly well known to the New Yotk ring that the Stato was Republican,' if ooly boocst votes were counted, aad they prepared elaborately to carry the State. In the first place they provided new voting places iw New York City, that their "ropeaterB' milit have prrater facilities, aud that the scope 'of fraud through bogus nataralization ' papers miht be increased. The registration wusenoimoas and grossly and notoriously fraudulent.' Thus New York City was prepared to cast a sufficient Detaoeratio vote to overcome the Republican preponderance iu tbe rest of tlm State, however great it might be. Tha next step was'to issue the following ciroularr "PRIVATE AND STRlCTbT COSFIJiKNTrAi;. "Rooms o llMOdfeA.xia Ütatk V Committee, October 7, 1ÖG8, J MM Y Dkar Sir Ploaso at once to comroanicate with some reliable. person in three or four principal towns, and caeh city of your oounty, and request him (expense duly arranged for this end) to telegraph to William M.

Let tbe telegraph be as follows: 'This town -will show a Democratio gain (or los) over lsst year of Or this one, if sufficiently certain: 'This town will givo a Republican (or Democratic) majority of . There is, of course, n important oljtct to be attained. By a simultaneous transmission up to the hour of closing the poll, but not longer waiting, opportunity can betaken of tbe usual half hour lull iu. telegrapbie communication over Hoes before the Associated Press absorb tbe telegraph with returns and interfere with individual ' messages, and give orders to watch carefully tbe count.! "Very truly yonrs, . uSaüuil J. Tildk.v, Chairman." Mr. Samuel J. Tilden, who is a gentleman worth some millions of dollats.-and intensely jrecpeetable, denounces tbe use of nis name to this document as a forgery. We suppose ho did not sign tbe circular, but it had its effect. His name upon it was influential. The Tammany Hall clique got the information wanted, and the important object that was to be attained, was attained. The New York Putt states the case as follows: "The reports from the State received at Tammany Hall, by William M. Tweed, immediately after the election, seems to have been, like thoso received by others, Vtry favorable to tho Republicans. He doubtless had, at 8 o'clock, in answer to tbe eecret circular to which tha signature of Samuel J. Ttldcu was lorded, substantially the same returns wLioh reached tho public about - 11 o'clock, and which satisfied the best judges that tho State had gone for Grant and Griswold by a small' majority, in spite of the enormous majority of 5U.ÜU0 then supposed to have been cast for the Democrats in this city. "But the returns from most of the city wards were still held back. - In ten or twelve wards the voto could not be obtained by the police officers until there had been ample time to send ' instructions from Tammany to the inspectors, to stuff the ballot boxes with: tho required num ber of ticket., and afterward to count (hem in full. "Tbe secret circular discloses a plat laid by the Democratic Tammany Committeo to cheat the people out of their decision, if they should decide against Hoffman. 7'Ae actual holding lack ej the returns on electwn night thoict to a mortal certatnty that the plot xcat carried out. But the absolute demonstration in figures might have been impossible, but for tbe stupidity either of Tammany in demanding, or of its tools at tbe ballot-boxes iu attempting, more than was needed. "The couspirators had provided 'ample room and vsre enough' for their frauds by registering forty thousuud nioro names than there are legal voters in tho city. Of this excess, some thirty thoui-aud, at least, were in districts which they controlled without check. They had but to keep a careful account of the number of false names registered io each voting district, aud. the conspirators st Tammsny might scovj to each district directions how many of tho falcu Voles euould bo vruditod

to Hoffman. 'Jhe-onlv irccstition re

The New . York World hns mode a writ effort to fix -upon Republican the ballotbox stuffing, and dcclnres that theCcpubcan vote in the city of New York of forty seven thousand was'imply preposterous." This Vftte, wui, however, simply in correspondence with the increased Republican ypte throughout the country, and tbe iW annihilates the. World' $ weak invention with n few figures thus: The fouilh diMriet of the Sixth Ward fvd a registry of 8-2 onroea; it returns 812 Tfttes for.Hcffuian and 21 for. Griswold.

JI'jfinan uf 1B0U, or twenty more than the whole number of names oa a registry already doubled by fraud.", Mr. Greeley said in. his specob at, the tJnion Club rooms: . "The election Just parsed showed that singular result that whereas, not only throughout the rural districts ofthe Union, except where collusion or fraud vitiated the vote, there had been a largely inci cased Republican vote, but tbeie had been, also, a similar increase in the cities as well. Except in cities like New Or leans, where voters were repelled by threats of assassination, the vote paralleled that given io the country for the Republican candidates. It was so at Boston, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Cleveland, and all the cities, with one exception. New York and its suburbs were tbo only exeep tions to this rule. Buffalo had been redeemed, and so with Rochoster and a majority of the cities of this State. Tie vote of New Jersey was carried against Grant by tbe county of Hadsoo, on our border, and in the belt of townships surrounding New York owe saw the same things and nothing like it any where ele in the Union where the people were allowed tp vote.. . New York. City and her suburbs stoed out in glaring contrast to all the rest ofthe cities of the Union." The exceptional ease of New York and Hudson County, New Jersey, ishe result cf fraud, and the fraud which controlled thirty-nine tkctcral votti was tbe strength of the New York ring. . It was what they depended upon all the while. It was tbe root of their assurance that New York's shoice most be the choice of the Democratio Convention, for the ring could not bo expected to do cheating enough to carry thirty-nine electoral votes for a Western Democrat, Pendleton for instance. It is a most fortunate thing that the thirtynino electoral votes caused by tbe frands of the New York ring, do not affect the general result. If they bad dono so, tbo situation would have been difficult and dangerous. Tbo Republicans of New York mu?t hunt down the scoundrels, exposo their tricks, and advertise them thoroughly, sparing no pains to make investigation thorough, and to have upon it action that will be effective.

It may be worth while for each elector to remember that it won't do to get up too late on the morning of December 2d, nor to delay Btarting for the capital, sr long as to make the time of bis arrival uncertain, because if he fails to be in attendance by eleven o'clock A.

Journal. The U. S. Senatorship. Chiefest among the grave duties devolving on our next Legislature which convenes in January, will be the selection of a citizen to represent Indiana in the Senate of the United States. That citizen will be a Republican, the Unionists having a clear majority in the assembly. A seat in the upper chambv of the American Republic is the most tempting of political prize, and naturally enough ia earnestly sought after by the aspiring. The precious Senatorial toga will not bo bestowed without a contest. The candidates sre numerous. -Among others we note the names of D. C. Pratt of Logansport, Judfie Walter March of Indianapolis, Col. R. W. Thompson of Terra Haute, Judge James Hushes of Rloomiogton, (Jeo. W. Julian of ' Centreville, II., C.
