be history of our country fttTly demon
strates the truth of the above proposition.
The Federalist party, from its course io
time of war, became odious to the people and
died.
The Whig party did the same thing aud
inel the same fate.
The Democratic party has committed tbe
unpardonable sin aud It Is dying.
There h now no Democratic party iu the
South. As !*i as power is concerned it is as
dead s- if it bad usver existed. Those who
fought the last campaign under the mum* ot
Democrats, were not Democrats. Eight-
tenths of the leaders weie formerly members
of the Whig party. They had uo platform,
no political s> (apathies, no doctrines to which
Wings end D* moerats could subaonbein com
mon. Nor did they pretend to have.
Their anion was a union of hate. Their
discordant elements were uuit«d. not by simi
larity of principle, but by hatred of the domi
nant party and of the government.
They were like weak bands of Indians, who,
although unfriendly to each other, unite to
overcome a convoy too strong for a single
tribe to attack, aud when their object is gain
ed, and the common foe defeated, fight eaoli
other for the spoils.
If the so-called Democracy had bevu tri
umphant. its discordant elements would have
quarreled among themselves the moment
their triumph was assured. It was whipped,
and is now disuniting because there is no
longer n common objeot to be immediately
The cry of the malcontent uow is, “(Jive
us a new party,” and the cry is repeated by
the slm in-Democrat to press.
Nothing could more plainly show the
streuglh ot the Republican party than the
despeiuto cries of the opposition for u new
party. They do not care what may be the
name or platform of the new concern ; all
they want is an organization of sufficient
strength to oppose the victorious Repnbli-
Accordiug to their owu confessions, Deuioo-
:y is dead forever in the Houth.
In the North the work of disintegration
goes on so rapidly that the Northern Democ-
feels that it is doomed. It has become
odious to the people because of its treachery,
and cannot longer sustain itself.
As time rolls on and “distance lends en
chantment to tbo view,” the side issues of the
time will be forgotteu, and soon to have been
opposed to tbe prosecution of tbe war will, iu
ibt- minds of the people, be an unpardonable
crime. Every year that passes adds lustre to
tbe war, boaor to those who fought in it, and
opprobrium to those who opposed it. The
truth of the above is already visible.
The Democracy ia already repudiated by
the Northern people. It can never regain its
lout ground, but on the contrary each year
will add to its weakness, until from a faction
it will bo nothing.
This is evident n» the D'-mm rutio leaders
the North, and they, too, are looking up
•w principles njK'h which to form a new
party.
In the meantime the Republican party
mwh stronger each day. Its strength in-
eas« s in the same ratio as tlmt of its oppo
nent’s grow less. It now controls tho coon
try, and will continue to do so as long us il

principles, and for tne prosperity ot the pe
