usual term for a great lot of money,
would hardly adequately express tho
size of the sums that are shipped over

THE REASON
Ibat It is coming in such quantities is
that we hae for the past three years
been living inside of Our income. We
have been producing more than wo
consume; and as the surplus of our pro
duction goes abroad, and we have
fconomtited mostly on what we buy in
' Knropc, the balance is in onr favor
and has been continuing to increase
rapidly in that direction. Europe must
purchase from us this year largo quan
tities of provisions to supply, her own
crop deficiencies and she must pay for
the same in gold, since we arc forcing
ourselves to get along with as little as
possible ot what she has to sell, and
there is a large surplus of ready money
coining to us iu the transaction. This is
a little bit of political economy for
your readers to investigate.

with unfaltering courar.- hope and pur

tho following declaration of principle.:
1. The United States of America is a
Nation, not a league .by the combined
workings of theNationnl and State govern

The rights of every citizen are secured Kt
home aed protected abroad, and common

these governments to the hundredth anni
versary of the Nation's bii-li. and ihey are
now embodiments of the great truths spo
ken at its cradle, "that all men ore eronrrl
equal; that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain inalineable ri"ht
among which are lite, liberty )lt,d the'purl
suit of happiness; that for the attainment
of these ends governments have been insti
tuted among men. deriving their it
ers from the consent of the governed "
Until these truths are cheerfully olieyed
or, if need be, vigorously enforced, the

pledged. The power to provide for . he eii
toreement of the principles embodied in
the recent Constitutional SI mtanrimnnr ia
vested by three anuHuiinf nf in thrvin
of the United States, and we declare it to
be the solemn obligation of the legislative
and executive departments of the govern
ment, to put into immediate and vigorous
exercise all their constitutional powers for
removing any just causes for discontent on
the part of any class, and for secui-inr to
every American- citizen complete liberty
and exact equality in the exercise ot all
civil, political .and public rights. To this
end we imperatively demand a Congress

these results are placed bevoud dispute or

permanence we recommend fin amendment

10. It is the imperative duty of the gov-
eminent so to modify existing treaties with r
EurrTpea'u governments that the same pro

success thus achieved would reopen st-ctinn-ii

I. We charge the Democratic party -villi
lie?-.sr thu ame in character and spirit
as when il sympathised with treason; with
making its control of the Hou-e or Repre
sentative the triumph and opportunity of
the nation's recent foes; with reasserting
ami applauding in the National Capital tins
sentiment' of iin:eK-i.t.-int rebellion ; with
sending Union soldier to the rear, and

with deliberately proposing to repudiate,
the plighted fa'uh of the government; with
being false and imbecile upon the over-bad-owing
financial questions ; with thivnrtieg
