Withdraws to His Castle, and Runs up the Black Flag of Eternal War Against the South. The following is an extract from Henry Waterson’s speech at the res cent Kentucky convention; I wish that ike could look upon the National campaign, which we are abont to enter, with the earnest but tranquil sensibilities of men who feel that, no matter how it ends, the gt ace of God and the glory of His works shall be fnlfUlpd. It is, an- happly otherwise. In a certain con tingency, we san expect nothing but disaster; the undoing of all the good which twenty years of peace have brought to a land once divided against itself and drenched in frater¬ nal blood; and in no contingency can we escape the disgrace of a ran coroua party battle to be fought on sectional lines, tearing away the bandages applied by time to wonnds that were well nigh healed and ex posing all that is basest in our nature and all that is weakest in oar system once more to the scorn and derision of mankind. I had hoped for bettor things. I had hoped that there was some virtue left in the party of war which might still be turned to the uses of a state of peace. I had hoped that the lead ers of this party of war—even if they lacked the virtue—bad borrowed yet a little wisdom from the school of ex perience, to which the people sent them four years ago, and that, chastened by adversity and admon ished by the defeat of their propb ecies, they had accquired the ca pacity to address themBelve to the needs of the time and to deal with the wants of the country. I was induced to hope this, the more trustfully because they have been for years so loud and so con» stant in their declaration that what they really sought was a Bquare is sue npon the tariff. I did not be lieve, for my part, that they would find this square issue to be what they claimed for it; and so, often at the cost of much uneasiness an i oc caeionby of some reproach from my party associates, I did my best to give them their desire. Well at last they have it; they have it square and they have it fair, they have it plaiD, in the message of tLe President and they have it dressed in the measure of the Ways and Means Committee, and now what do we see? First, let me tell you what we do not Bee. We do not see any pionic parties of gay and sleek Protection ists dancing to the mosic of the Fisher’s Hornpipe, and singing with every bumper “Here’s to good old bounty, drink it down.” We*do not see any jolly Republicans, splitting their sides with langbter as they march under banners on which are emblazoned such mirth provoking inscriptions as “The War Taxes are a National Blessing,” and “Death to the Star eyed Goddess of Reform.” We see no bonfires aronnd whose blazing tarbarrels the benerolent,bnt subsidized, capitalist, cate the pigeon wing, hand in hand with the poor operative, foi whose exclusive benefit he lives, and to whom—since ha does nothing more and can do nothing 1 ms —he dedicates the tariff. No, no, my conn try men, none of these signs of promised exults tion greet the eye as it surveys the political horizon. But, iu room of them, what do wo see? Wo see the robber tariff driven once again bo bind the mud heaps of obstruction, thrown up, and so often successfully thrown up, to keep out the waters of reform. We see the robber baron, 6ullen and dismayed, with drawn to his castle, from whose tnr rets only danger signals appear, male iog an indifferent light, and no warmth for the thousands of striking and starving work people, whom he is bravely protecting against the panper labor of Europe by the help of a patriotic audvaliant detachment of /Pinkerton’s detectives. And, finally, what do we see? Last of all, and worst of all, that ends this dread ful spectable of hyprocrisy and cant, of corruption and rapacity, we see the flag of the Republic hanled down from its place above a great political party, and, in its stead run up the black flag of eternal war against the South ! To such base use has come the confident invitation of the Re pnblican leaders to a statemanlike discftsBion of economic problems; and in proportion as it is an uner ring sign of weakness and terror, is it A vindication of the sagacity of those Democrats who have stood so faithfully and so steadily by the cause of a revision and reduction of the war taxes, and the return of our customs system to the basis of Rev enne, “exclusively for public pur l )0 ® es- I repeat what I said in the outset, that I regret, most sincerely regret, this substitution of the old section al issue, drawing all its substance from the grave, for the living issue of Revenue Reform presented by the Democratic party. Bat. since we can not evade, or ignore it, let ns meet it, and meet it like men. Let us stand npon our rights as freemen, onr rights ns citizens, our rights as equals in the Union, and, bolding those rights as our commission, let us go to the good people of the North, ovu brothers, and not our masters, and appeal to their sense of justice and fraternitly, to save us, and themselves, from the bellowing followers of Bellona who will bo con tent with no'hirg short of our sub¬ jugation or our ruin. * 4 KlM c POWDER Absolutely Pure.
