White Bronze Moaraiiis! 1
—MANIIFAOTiJBED BY THE—
MONUMENTAL BRONZE GO.,
Bridgeport, Conn.
In presenting to the People the White
Bronze Monuments, Statues, and Vases, 1
do so, knowing (from the high source of
their recommendation) that 1 am offering
1 hem the most durable Monuments that
has ever lieen before the public, and llieir
cheapness puts them in reach of all. Be
ing from lifty to one hundred per cent,
cheaper than marble and more lasting than
marble or granite. Our Bronze is compos
ed of pure Cast Zinc, which differs nuite-
rially from the commercial article, being
re lined especially for our own use, and it is
also an entirely different article from the
sheet zinc, which is an amalgam, whilst
ours is a Pure Metal, like Gold and Silver.
The beautiful surface finish on allour work
is produced by the patented sand blast pro
cess, of which we have the exclusive con
trol for this class of work, and by means of
which we impart a finish closely resem
bling granite, and the material being of
Light Gray Color, justly entitles our goods
to their trade name of "White Bronze.”
Some doubts having been expressed as
to the durability of the “White Bronze
Monuments,” I submitted a piece of the
metal to George F. Payne, a chemist of
prominence, for analysis and below give
the result, also that of other chemists.
Judge for yourselves and if you want a
monument see me befor you place your or
der, and 1 will give you a monument
cheaper than anybody. Orders received
and lilled from any section of the Country.
Macon, Ga., Feb. 18,1382.
Mr. O. P. FIhath, Esq.,—Dear Sir: I
have examined the piece of metal which
you left, with me as a sample of the mate
rial used iu the manufacture of White
Bronze Monnumcnts for which you have
the aganey. I Jind it to be composed of
metalic zinc, a material of the most dura
ble nature and well calculated to withstand
all atmospheric affluences. When proper
ly erected and ol sufficient weight, they
will certainly prove durable and rather in
clined to improve in appearance than to
deterioate.
Very Respectfully, •
G. F. Payne.
Analytical Chemist.
Certificates of Prof. S. P. Sharpies, As-
sayer of Metals for the State of Massachu
setts, the highest authority of the East:
“I consider the White Bronze Monuments
practically indestructible. They will not
blacken or become dingy with age. Moss
will not adhere or grow upon their surface
as upon marble, and the color will remain
unchangeable while the monuments en
dure. In my opinion these monuments
will outlast the stone foundation on which
they stand.

The point is made by the Louisville Cou

THE MAJORITY RULE.
We trust our next Conventions, guber
natorial, congressional and county, will
abolish Anally and forever the two-thirds
rule and establish in lieu thereof the ma
jority rule. The two-thirds rule was orig
inally adopted to protect the South in the
days of slavery. Slavery is gone, and the
chief reason for the rule no longer exists.
Another reason alleged is to protect tho
rights of tho minority, and produce con
cord and unity in the party. The minori
ty certainly have rights which should be
protected, but the majority also have
rights which should be respected, and
among those rights is the one to name the
candidate. The two-thirds rule has been
productive of more discoid than concord,
more disunion than union. Two years ago
it sundered the Democratic party of the
State, and gave us two candidates, Col
quitt and Norwood. In the Charleston
Convention of I860, Mr. Douglas received a
majority vote for tho Presidential nomina
tion and it is at least possible, if the tjvo
thirds rule had not been the usage of the
party, that the minority would not have
seceded from the Convention, and Douglas
might have been elected and the war
averted.
The two-thirds rule is founded on false
premises. Take a hundred men. Why
should 34 control the judgment and action
of 66? Is it not more reasonable that the
majority should rule, than the minority?
If any great outrage is perpetrated by the
majority, the minority have the right of
revolution left, or rather tho right of non-
complianco. But where a man has fairly
earned a nomination at the hands of a ma
jority of his fellow citizens. It Is unjust
and unfair that an implacable minority
should defeat him. The majority rule is
the rule with the Republican party, and
their nominations have been quite success
ful in the past. Take our Independent
friends. Suppose tho party had eleven
members, instead o' nine. Four could de
feat tho choice of seven. Let the two-
thirds rule bo relegated to the rear with
the useless lumber or a past era. The or
ganic law of the land only requires a ma
jority of tho Electoral College to elect a
President of the United States, and in elec
tions for members of Congress, and many
State and county officers, a plurality vote
is sufficient to elect.

When Napoleon was banished to Elba by
the allied powers, the Bourbon dynasty
was restored in France. The new King,
Louis the 18th, put in practice the usages
and methods of despotism, which prevail
ed before the Revolution. This produced
great discontent among the French people
and paved the way for the return of Napo
leon. It was this conduct on the part of
the King, which led Napoleon to say, that
the Bourbons never learned anything and
never forget anything. They seemed igno-

Political Parties and Independents.
We have occasionally, in 'the last few
years, laid before the readers of the Union
Jk Recorder our views of the duties
which devolve upon the members of politi
cal parties. We believe their existence is
necessary to the public good. They have
existed In every country of which we have
any knowledge since tiie first organization
of human Institutions, whether republican,
monarchical or despotic; but readers of
history know that they possessed feebler
Influence in despotic than in freer govern
ments and for tho reason that in the latter
there was less freedom of opinion anil
speech.
Iu despotic governments, the rescripts
of the despot, backed by servile ministers
and standing armies, silenced tiie voice of
patriotism and enforced obedience. But
it Is not our purpose to enlarge upon the
characteristics of parties in tho varied
forms of government which have existed
or do now exist in the world. We shall
confine our remarks to parties as they are
under our free institutions. They existed
to some extent at the time of their forma
tion and have existed from tiiat time to the
present. We shall be concise in the ex
pression ot the views we desire now to lay
before our readers and we trust wo 6hall
have their approval of them. An associa
tion of the people, under party organiza
tion, is tho result of differences of opinion
upon great public measures and constitu
tional opinions. Some entertain one set of
views, others entertain opinions directly
opposite. Those entertaining these differ
ent views term a kind of political part
nership to which we glvo the name of
party. The nature of this unwritten com
pact Is simply this; Holding certain fun
damental principles in common, they agree
to co-operate with each other to give effect
to them in the most appropriate ways at
their command, and especially by casting
their suffrages ter them, that is for the
candidates who uphold them, at the ballot
box.
Tho men composing the Democratic par
ty, for instance, hold their county. State
and Federal conventions, lay down their
platforms and nominate their candidates.
It is then expected that, under the volun
tary association into which they have en
tered, each member of the party, who has
an equal voice with all the rest, will cast
his vote ter those eandidates-and so of
the Republican party.
And now comes in the great point we
have in view. A man says: I am an inde
pendent Democrat and will not abide by
what has been done, and, an Independent
Republican says tho same thing about the
action of his jiarty. And yet these inde
pendents can accomplish nothing unless
they can control enough to make a strong
Independent party. It is no part of our
purpose to endeavor to take care of the In
dependent Republicans. We refer to them
merely by way of illustration. But why
should there be any Independent Demo
crats, as they call themselves? We are
now coming to close quarters. If the Dem
ocrats hold principles in common, elemen
tary and fundamental, ought they not to
co operate with each other? Ought not the
members of the party, for the sake of pre
serving harmony, to yield to the majority
on all matters of inferior importance. If
there shall be a difference upon elementa
ry and fundamental principles, wo admit
there is a cause for separation. Hut we
earnestly ask wheu has the Democratic
party departed from those great and fun
damental principles? It always lias de
nounced and does now denounce, the doc
trines of centralism and a high protective
tariff. It always has and does now de
nounce official extravagance anil corrup
tion. Why, then, should any Democrats
withdraw from the party and set up ter
themselves? If they favor a high protec
tive tariff aud centralism, they are no
longer Democrats, ter. In doing that they
violate the greatest and highest and must
essential principles of the party.
We want tho Independents to think of
this and come back to the bosom of the
great old party uih>u whose success de
pends tho preservation of our free institu
tions.
not surrender the despotic sway of their
family. From these circumstances, tho
enemies of good government in tiie South,
have derived the term Bourbons, which
they apply to tne body of Southern whites,
alleging tiiat they forget that slavery is
abolished, and that a new order of things
has been established. Never was a term
worse misapplied than this to tho people
of the South. They promptly acquiesced
in all the changes made by the war, and
went to work with unexpected vigor and
determination to meni their fortunes and
build up the waste places. But they abso
lutely refused to allow a gang of unprinci
pled and characterless men to establish
and maintain, In Uie Southern States, rot
ten and thieving State governments. Be
cause they object to being robbed and
plundered, they are called Bourbons. This
term, originally intended as a term of re
proach, from Its application lias changed
its meaning, and now denotes the men of
the South, of wealth, character, refinement
or Intelligence. It is now a term of honor,
ju9t as the word rebel, signifies patriot,
when applied to such men as Lee, Jackson,
Johnston and Hampton. The Bourbons
embrace the better elements of society, and
their rule has brought peace, and a modi
cum of prosperity to the South. Under no
other rule could the Southern people have
any degree of prosperity, arid this fact is
recognized by uli unbiassed, intelligent
people.
