THE DAILY SUN. PRICE FIVE drift* AtiaaU Oa.« Wciaettfay, April 9, 1973 THE NEXT rSJUSlDENT A DREW HAT. An administration paper speaking of Governor (Hendricks, of Indi ana, being in favor of disbanding the Democratic party says: “ Tie Governor has nearly as much sagac ity as ambition; and he sees the folly of trying to olimb to the Presidency with all the rungs knocked ont of the ladder.” The Burlington (Vt.) Democrat replies to this by saying: “All this may be trne to the real situation at present, bnt it doesn’t apply to the ease in hand. In ‘ 76’ the Demo cratic party will send a man np to the White House, but not by the way of a ladder; he will be a straight man, and will go up the straight way. All those that have climbed up some other way are thieves and robbers.” Barring the last sentence in the Democrat’s reply which is pretty strong, we agree and believe most candidly that the Democratic party will send a man to the White House, whose elevation will not be attaincu by climbing a ladder with rungs made of dead men’s bones and sus tained by the evil spirit of sectional hatred. Tnat man, if the Democra cy only remain true to principle, and we believe they will, will go up the straight way, and be in a position by the force of the correctness of Democratic principles, to restore peace and.national fraternity to the country. Gov. Hendricks is a man of enough sagacity to see the utter fu tility ot any effort to organize suo- oessfnl opposition to the party in power at the sacrifice of the true prin ciples] of free government. To in- Mary who sought the sepulchre of cline towards what is considered the ! ler Cru0lfie<1 8avlor - with her offer- advanced oentral ideas of the Repub- lican party is merely to abandon prinoiple to follow in the wake of that party. He who wonld follow in the wake, would, of course, prefer to fall into the more advanced columns, ’ and go to the front at once. The at tempt made last year to place the Democracy in the wake of the He- pnblican party was too disastrous to be r.-peated. It drove men, or rather led them, into the Republican fold because there was little dissimilarity between the Cinoinnati-Boltimore and the Republican platforms. In vul gar parlanoe, some were thus induced to “ go the whole hog or none.” , All the talk we sue in the papers ’ about the “ New Party,” is but the wish of the enemies of Democracy which is the father to the thought, of thus distracting and disorganizing the Democratic party, expressed in guileful sophistry to deceive • and mislead. No true Democrut ' has said anything, or proposer! any thing, or suggested anything in re gard to the formation of a new party. Nor has Gov. Hendricks. He, doubt less, has not the remotest*idea of favoring such a stupendous blunder. He has witnessed enough of such fol’y in the last Presidential cam paign. No true Democrat desires to . repeat a blunder, to call it in terms * the mildest—a criminal deception on i the part of trading politicians, but ’ really a blunder on the part of the Democratic mosses to thus allow themsolves to be duped. Three millions of Democrats in solid phalanx to begin with; with a a political creed in perfect harmony with the true principles of free gov ernment; standing upon a platform of well-defined and clearly expressed Jeffersonian sentiments; with perfect and solid organization throughout the whole country: we say, with the Democracy thus arrayed and disci plined, the traitors in the camp thrown overboard, with union uud harmony prevailing among our friends everywhere, we shall place a man in the White House, in 1876, who will not dare to trifle with the rights of the people, and who will be sustained by a Congress overwhelm ingly Democratic. THE RELATIVE POPULATION OT THE VKI TED STATES AS TO THE SKIES. The last census gave us a popula tion of 38,558,371—the number of male persons being 19,193,665, and that of lemales, 19,064,806—the ex cess of males being 428,758. The census or 1860 shows an excess of males of 727,087, say 378,328 more than the last census. The following States show an ex cess of males, 730,861, viz: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Da kota, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Ilii -nois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ken' tucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mis souri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming. The (ollowing States show an ex- oess of females, 301,159, viz: Alabama, Connecticut, Disk Columbia, Geor gia, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, N. Hamp shire, New Jersey, New York, N. Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode is land, 8. Carolina, Tennessee, Vir ginia Of the first States named an excess of males, six of them are Southern, and twenty-three of them Northern. Of the latter States named as hav ing an excess of females, nine are Southern, and eight are Northern. Georgia has an excess of 26,199 fe males. By these figures, the reader will perceive that the excess of the male over the female population predomi nates in the Northern States, while the opposite is true in the South. We do not account for the predomi nance in numbers of the males in the Northern States except upon the principle that the great tide of emi gration flows there from Europe, and that a large percentage of the emi grant element are composed of young men without families. By the same figures, we mean the tables given above, it will be per ceived that the female ovet the male population predominates in the Southern States. The excess of fe males in toe South may he attributa ble to the great loss of the males in the late war, which has not been made up by European emigration. These are curious facts and figures, worthy to be. studied. The excess of males at the North and of the females at the South would seem to indicate the need of a closer union between the two sections. ” MEMORIAL DAY." The ladies almost everywhere are making arrangements and prepara tions for the proper observance of “ Memorial Day.” True to the no blest instincts of the human heart, the women of the South are always true to the memories of the past glo ries of the good, the noble, the chiv alrous and the patriotic. As it was l^having ings, when others had betrayed and deserted him, so it is with the Ma rys ot the South who repair to the graves of our noble Confederate dead once a year to commemorate their virtues, their heroism and their pa- tiiotism, and to bestrew the humble mounds that mark their resting places with garlands and wreathes of spring’s most beautiful flowers. This is right; it is divine, because such sentiment can only emanate and live in hearts inspired by tne noblest traits of mankind, who, made in the image of the Creator, must exhibit in his bottcr nature sentiments in unison with the divine goodness. Woman is the embodiment of that nature. By reason of her devotion to the higher and nobler sentiments of the heart, sho clings with veneration to those memories that remind ns of the noble deeds of the human race. But for the self-saorificing devotion of the women of the South in the late war, tho “ Lost Cause” could not havo been sustained boyond the second yeur. Sho clothed our armies and ministered to the sick and wound ed, and her prayers, from hearts as pure as purity itself, ascended to heaven for the success of .that cause. None were nioia. self-denying, and none sent our braves away to the field of carnage with greater love and pa triotism for tlioir country than they. They gave up their fathers, their hus bands, their sons aud their kindred, trusting to God for their safe return and to tho Right for victory. Then, how natural is it that our fair and beloved women should com' memorate with subdued sentiment and affectionate tribute the day set apart by general consent to gatlur around the graves of the brave and lost, and decorate them with flowers thus made to speak tho languago of the tenderest love of country and for its defenders 1 But for the women, the memories of noble deeds would be forgotten amidst the rushing tide of life which fust bears us from them, leaving them in the dim past as things almost forgotten aud but little cherished. Let tho women, the guardian angels, os it were, that hover over cur destiny and direct our best impulses, weave the beautiful garlands and lay them upon the graves of our noblest and truest and our best beloved—for it is an offering as beautiful, as sacred, as divine as heaven can bestow and angels dispense. civil stsrici reform. The Washington Chronicle, ad ministration organ, in reply to' the charge that, although Gen. Grant was re-elooted upon his promises of civil reform,which ne has thrown over board since, says such is not true, but that the President will not abandon any practical meaus of reforming the civil service. It is to be hoped that he will succeed in his good inten tions. The field for reform is large in which he may distinguish himself very greatly. ihl Democratic Party. The following article, ^.rililisbed in the Saa Antonio (Texas) Herald, is re-pub lished in Tna Sea by request. Iu trans ferring it to onr columns, we take oc casion to say there is a great deal of truth in what is said, ea[ ecially in th> last paragraph. Whatever of difference existed in the Democratic ranks lost fall,it is to be hoped will no longer divide the party. What is most to be dee.rcd by ell true Democrats is, that tnere shall be no more disturbing elements ii trodueed iuto cm counsels: Bis Astosio, Much si, :tn. Editor. Herald: A quotation in your journal from a Louisville paper states, that Senator Jason B. Brown, ot Indiana, was a lesdidg actor id theLouiavlie (Jon vontion, and baa reoeived a Fed' ml ap pointment “ as a recognition for eeekin to create a split in bis own party.” 1 mast be expected that each el the fonr papers which engineered the movement to bring about such a disastrous defeat lust November, will continue to mi* state the actions of those who . eemed themselves justified in supporting the “straight-out" ides. Bat fads so no torious as Ueuatur Brown’s unqualified adhesion to the Kadi,-si party in July last, and his open advocacy of General Grant. wete as well known in Kentucky as th y were in Indiana. If the Louis ville Convention has done any aot re quiring penance aud absolution, it cer tainly is not called npon to incur any responsibility for gentlemen, who, in tW~ Notwithstanding the sharp criticisms of a few—a very few—crit ics adverse to “Clifford Troup,” four thousand copies of the work have been sold in three weeks, the best kind of evidence of it* power and popularity. The Washington Chronicle says the Southern Claims Commis sion will probably sit all summer, aud that it is stated that a larger number of claims than ever before will be presented to Congress next fall their disguit and auger, openly identi fied tiiemoeivea witli tee Helical party. Ho fur as any devel tpmeuls have been made, only two delegates (and they prominent actors) iu the Louitvdle Con vention, have declared their affiliation with the Radical party. It ie possible both of them may receive and accept Federal officea. Of the Cincinnati delegates, it is as serted, two-thirds ore again in the bosom of the Badical party, and in fall faith aud fellowship. The quadrilateral press (now''ndepend ent) which sought to destroy even the nsme oi the Democratic pur'y, succeeded only iu creating a tempor. ry uunoraliza tion; aud, to-day, some ol the most strenuous advocates of Mr. Greeley are the firmest opponents of any further do parture, aud decline to adhere to or tol crate any polioy other than a atrict or ganization upon Democratic principles. And in this work there will not be louud supporters more siuoere aud euergetic than the tour or five hundred delegates of the Louisville Convention, and the million of voters, who refused to oBat then vo es iu November. The adherents to prinoiple care noth ing oa to wliat individuala shall fill the offices, and not being office aeekere them selves, they do not care a rash for the ill will ot those politicians who were disap pointed last yeur in their expectations of plunder or honors. The masses of the party are folly eon vinced that a million voters, who held aloof, are worthy of more consideration than the soattering thousands who op pose Geu. Grant, aud yet insiat npon ab sorbing tbe Democratic organization and name in their own skeleton ranks. The Mobile Register has ably argued this question, and defines what will be the action of the party in the various State conventions. The result will justi fy the prediction, that over three mil lions of voters will oompaotiy march ahead, under the same old banner, and that the ostracised Rudiouts, who are honest in desiring reform, will not listen to any prejudice, bnt will nni.e with and support tho old Demoor tioorganization. And the day will yet come, when even those Democrats who are still sore sud disappointed, will confess that tbe deieat of last November was the Salvation o’ Democratic principles, which, as well os the party name, wonld inevitably have been destroyed if the ooalition hud suc ceeded and Lad placed in office thousand, who hod no other o .minon motive than solf-advanoemeut, and, if they possessed principle, must have entertained ideas so diametrically opposed as to prevent the slightest chanoe of future tiarmony. Real Democrats, therefore, however they may havo differed last vear, either upon questions of policy or expedieney, will insist absolutely upon a cessation ol all bickering; and those who attempt to embroil. the organization or to split it iuto factions, will find ibemuelves crushed ruder the united and harmoniously em phatio condemnation of the musHes, whenever that voioe can be heard. If principles are to govern, tbe Demo- orals have a bright future before them, Each can best promote sucoess by for- getting past difference of opinion. Blanton Duncan. A JUST AND BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE. In another column of The Sun to-day we publish a beautiful and ap propriate tribute from tne Sunday School of tho First Methodist Church to the memory of the lamented John R. Hampton. No words of ours can add to the meed of heurtfelt love and admiration of the noble, Christian character, exprsssed upon the page that has been devoted to thus per petuate his memory. It is sublimely beautiful—it is eminently fitting and just. For who that knew Mr. Hump ton, either os tho man of business or as a friend, will not accord to him all and in tne highest and strictest sense, every characteristic therein to him ascribed. He did not live for the honors of men, save us they came iu admiration of duties well performed. The aim of his existence was to do good on earth. Not upou the highways did he fulfill this mission; But in the quiet walks of life. And if his name has not been registered npon the scroll of fame, it is ineffoceably im planted within many a heart, and on the eternal register of the just, and upon the books of the Savior of men. His life was a pattern of the true Christian on earth, and his death a tranquil passage of the soul from earth Heavenward. But his death is as the death of every good man—a public calamity.
