lk ew York, 20th July, 1871-
Editor of the Sun: Your reply
of the 19th inet to the World of this
city list been here three day*. It has
made quite an impresiion upon the
mind* of many staunch Democrat*,
who were before partly committed to
the “New Departure.” Many of them
now candidly confess that they are
taken back by your argument.
The World ha* not yet replied, or
taken any notice of the article, though
I eecit ha* been republished in full in
Connecticut It may be proper for
your reader* to know that there are
several Editor* of the World, and
no two of them agree exactly ni>on
any line. Most of those who write
for tint paper, it is believed, are men
engaged to W’ritc professionally, bare
ly ; and to bring forth articles to suit
the views of the Proprietors, without
ut all indicating their own individ
ual opinions, just as men ut the bar
make arguments to suit the case of
their client*. Few of them write
their own earnest convictions. What
is true of the World in this particular
is most unfortunately true ot most of
our leading papers at this time.
Mr. Marble, who may bo consid
ered the editor-in-chief of the World
at this time, it may be proper for
your reader* to know, was, I believe,
never a Democrat on the old line—
His paper was started as a lladical
sheet. It was not until about the
close of the war, that it passed into
the bund*.of a few Democrats, who
entered into a joint stock company
for its purchase. Since then it has
been considered a Democratic paper,
with Mr. Marble at its head. From
this Viow of his antecedents it w'ill be
seen why he naturally enough wants
the Democratic Party to “depart”
from their “old lime honored creed,”
and adopt the principles of tho lladi-
eul Party, upon which lie lias indi
vidually stood all tho time.
Of tuc other contributors to that
paper, or the other members of the
editorial staff us it is called, I need
not speak. Some of them 1 know to
lie true as well as uble men. It is
from these, all the sound Democratic
articles which appear in the paper
come.
Tammany is in great troublo now.
The city authorities are arraigned lie-
fore the public for sanctioning great
alleged fronds in tho administration
of the city government. I forbear
all comments at present.
Ana us,
upon momentous points (in spite of
tho severest oppression), to anything
that I have ever rood in history, al
though I approve of their course us
yet, but advise adherence to your
programme for the future. Another
step in the old direction must sull
ied them to the scorn of the world!
The Democracy, in the hour of real
trial, must not surrender the essential
principles of tho Constitution.
Have the peoplu of the country at
large pondered upon tho prosjiect be
fore them ? I date the commencement
of serious trouble at the very moment
when (Jenenil'Grant shall ha recog
nised us the elected President in 1873
by Congress, with or without a suf
ficient electoral vote. The nneatiou
of tho “ Empire,” will, at that in
stant, lie, informally or directly,
mooted seriously. People uttaeli too
much importance to words that have
a meaning any way thut interested
philologists may seo proper to give to
them. No man can tell what the
new government may be termed. But,
us a practical mail, I mean to say,
that until this fact shall be fully ac
complished, wc shall sec no overt act
of Executive authority not author
ized by Congress. The real struggle
will come when the Legislative and
Executive branches of the Govern
ment meet front to front!
And this will be the case in less
than three years (but a moment in
the history of nations). It will then
become the duty of tho Democracy
to tako a decisive stand, Cato.

Washington, July 28, 1871.
It must always be understood when
I speak of what the Conservative
party ought to do, or ought not to do,
that I do not depend so much upon
my own exclusive judgment. The
letters I write are rather dictated by
statesmen who are not to be again
fooled by men of no principle st alL
1 am, nevertheless, of this way of
thinking—otherwise I would refrain
from writing altogether.
And this leads me to nvow that
nothing could more seriously damage
the South os a moss of people, than
deucy, accompauied by a' dubious, or
an unannounced political creed.
What would it avail the South
whether the so called Democratic
party in the next National Convention
should sec proper to put up Trumbull,
or Chase, or llendricks, or Thurman,
or Hoffman, or Greeley, or any of
the other aspirants for that honor, if
it fidls to pnt the candidate upon a
platform in consonance with truly
constitutional principles ? The trae
lovers of constitutional liberty abhor
such tricks! Their province is to de

Hos. Comuhsioxoi Ihtsimal Barnaul,
Waasisotos, D. 0.
Sir -I have the honor to inform you
that for over two months I have stood
tho misrepresentations and malicious
falsehoods of many portion, concerning
the Gould imbroglio, without so much as
giving the reports I hear aa much thought
os I wonld one of my dogs. But forbear
anco has ceased to become a virtue with
me in connection with this affair, and I
propose to set myself right, and respoot-
fuliy inform you what I have made by
Gould's defalcation, viz: tho loss of three
month’s pay, over five hundred dollars'
worth of groceries, and small sums of
monoy loaned him at various times, and
to cap all, tlie loss of my credit, which was
good anywhere and for any amount, and
hut but not toast, am a bankrupt. If tho
late Hon. Edwin M. Stanton was alive,
be oould tell yon as to whether I am an
honorable man or not. I don’t propose
to allow these small office-holders to anoy
me, for my honest opinion is—with hut
one or two exceptions—honosty departed
from this section, and for littlo or noth
ing, anything would ho dons to vent
sotno (Kitty spleen. Tho Department
does not desire ono-tcntli part the posses
sion of gold that I desire to sco him
here. I do not propose to suffer for the
sins of others, and can ho fouud at my
place of Imsincsefrom live a. si., until
niuor. u., every day, any timo I
wanted.
Oue Alvin B. Clark, Assistant Assessor,
claims to havo authority from your De
partment to prosccuto mo us ouo of the
principals in Gould's defalcation.
I know him to ho a notorious liar and
respectfully ask of yon whether any snob
instructions havo ever been issued to him.
It makes no difference to mo whatever.
Very Reipectfully,
(Signod) A. B. Alden.
This letter was treated by the Commis
sioner precisely as it deserved: Twas
marked "No answer required” and filed
away in the archives of the department.
The letter ia simply an insult to tho Com
missioner. If ho (Alden) is perfectly in-
nocent of any complicity in the Gould
defalcation, what need he care as
to what instructions have been
issued to Alvin B. Clarke ? There is no
danger to tho innooent. It is only con
templated to prosecute tho guilty, and
Mr. Alden has not made tho least im
pression by his attempt to bluff' the
Oommistionor. One thing Mr. Alden
oan rest assured of, and that is, Major
Gonld trill return, and all tho mysteries
oonnectod with lus defalcation ana flight
will be made clear; and it is advisable
for thoso who expect to get hurt to stand
from undor..
J. Clarke Swayze, who is an applicant
for the position ot Collector of Internal
Revenne, for tho Second Georgia Dis
trict, (endorsed by Poster Blodgett)
during his recent visit here, publicly
(wasted that the Republican del-
S tation from Georgia to tho next
ational Republican Convention, would
go dead against Grant's renomination.
This boast has been bronght to thouo
Uoe of tho appointing power, and the
oonseuacnce is, Mr. J. Clark Swavxo will
not collect tho Internal Revenue for the
