Mongrclism despotism.
, Upon tbo great Issue of a govern
mental theory we unalterably decide
against that party which works out
side of tho Constitution | which vio
lates the groat fundamental- principle
of Republican government, that all
good government grows out of tho
consent of tho governed; and which
commits tho irrepnrablo and ruinous
error of giving to the ignorant and vi
cious tho domination over tho educa
ted and virtuous. Mongrclism does
oil tills, and ui’ertiforo wo oppose it.
But tho money issues nro still im

Tho BJggost Ido of tho Season I
. Wo linvo’rcad many monstrous Mon

concerning tho “lawless," “brutal”
“rebels" of tho South, circulated by
Northern Mongrel shoots for tho pur

•but tlio following from Forney's paper
is ono of tlio hugest lies of tlio season.
It is a lio Of stupendous proportions,

We give you tlio Iron logic

kable figures, that appeal to the
ity pockets of a ruined peopio in
bunder tones against tlio wild anil
stupendous thriftlessness of Mongrel
rule.
Tlio publio debt is $2,000,000,000 in
round numbers, one-seventh of tlio ac
tual wealth of the whole country. Of
lliis huge debt $200,000,000, in round
numhors, is in bonds, called five-twen
ties, Hint is payablo in flvo years if tho
government dcsiros, but allowing twon-
ty years moro if necessary. Tho in
terest of tlieso bonds is payablo iu
coin.
Tho Mongrels passed tho “ Funding
Bill” jnst before Congress adjourned,
which is not now law, because Presi
dent Johnson refused to sign it, and it
lays over.
By this Fiuiding Bill tlieso bonds
nro couvorted into forty year bonds,
that- is tho timo of their payment ex
tended so ns to give the bondholders
their magnificent gold interest for a
longer period, and burdening tbe peo
ple longer to pay such interest. This
Bill also makes tho bonds payable iu
gold instead of ctrrcuoy, as now is tlio
case. Gold is worth $1.40 in green
backs. By this little Bill tho public
debt is iucrcasod just tho difforeuce
between gold and greenbacks, amount
ing ou tlio $200,000,000 to $800,000,-
000.
Think of it, tax-payers 1 by ono stroko
of the pen Mongrclism proposes to add
to tho hugo public dobt already bur
dening tbo land, the further cuormous
sum of $800,000,000, without any com
pensation to the country therefor, and
this to buy lip the bonded capitalists
of tlio country to support Mongrclism.
It is robbery, horrible, wholesale, in
iquitous robbery for party purposes j
and this party has the brazon audacity
to ask tho patriots nnd tax-payers of
the land to support nnd endorse tho
tremendous plunder of their pockets.
If President Johnson had been im

ing fearful proportions. Tbo misman
agement of Indian affairs by tlio party
in power, which brought on tlio war,
and tho manner in which the war lins
been conducted since it hu9 begun,
calls for severe reprobation. But the
lives nnd property of citizens on tlio
frontier are ns nothing compared with
tlio manipulation of the SoulheniStates
for Radical ends.

Recovery of Stolon Ronds.
We take tlio following from tho De

In tho Spriug of 1866, a numbor of
bonds of tlie Blue llidge Railroad
Company, of South Carolina, were sto
len from tlio Bank of South Carolina,
in Charleston, by the Union soldiery.
Since that timo detectives all over tho
country have boon engngod in trying
to discovor tlio bonds, lint until quite
recently no clue to them could be found.
A few weeks ogo a resident of Wind
sor called at one of tbe banks in Ibis
city nml offered two of tho stolen se
curities for sale, but the .officers of tlie
bank declined to negotiate with him,
on tho supposition tlmt nil was not
right, nnd informed the chief of polieo
of tho oircuinstunce. The person was
arrested) but succeeded in aqnyipcing
tho authorities that ho had obtained
tlie bonds of another party, (a tempo

commissioned him to dispose of tlicin.

A Washington letter says tlio extra
ordinary decrease in tlie collection of
l-ovenuo, together witli a falling off in
tlio cash in the Treasury, which will lie
shown in the next monthly statement,
is calculated to add to tlio alarm now
cxistlug in financial circles. Tlie state
ment for September will exhibit an in
crease in tlie public debt of from n mil
lion and a half to two millions, and per-
Impsjnorc, resulting wholly from ex
penses of tlio War Department in
mootiug various domandsof reconstruc
tion. There is a small decrease in ex
penses in two other branches, and a
large (Suing off in tho cashin tho Treas
ury. _

tlmt oity is truly alarming. Gnrroting,
rape, arson, and suicido, aro common
occurrences—all tho result of bad gov
