The circulation was at first am ill, but we have eeen it Increase quire by quire until it new exceeds that ef any ether weakly ejawapaper In the State outalde of PorUand. We have became person -aity aoqnatoted with a majority of the subscriber, and ia apeakiug te :iy through the aper, and to give them what they wished ia the line ef new, we have learned to love the medium through which we cen versed with them, and it la now almost like parting with one of our family when wo give up the D mot rat. Wo weuld not novo had not oar other businees such that it prevented us from giving the) paper as muoh attention as it should receive. The members of the now firm of Chamberlain k Stives need no introduction from us to the readers of this paper. They eiiiseeai of our county for and have an extended acquaintance throughout the entire alley. They have never before been cenneeted with a newspaper but wo can vouch for their ability integrity, energy and Democracy and aa experience will soon fallow wo fool euro the readers of the Demo crat will profit by the cnange of proprietorship. And now, wishing the patrons ef the paper all the jay and happiness urhksh it is possible to crowd into e life, and hoping they will lend aid and do their utmost to secure for the Democrat a prosperous we bid all a kind adieu. Club H. Stewart. a A RATA' Oa the ova of fotnj to press with our iet iaaua, C IL Stewart, who for ee many jeers has shared ia the fal management and control of the Dene oust, severed his connection therewith, and it now oomee out noder a partially now management. In asiaming con trol ef the DaxoCRiT, we have eniv to my thai we shall endeavor to make it in every respect a newsujer worthy of aha patronage it baa s long enjoyed at heme and abroad. Far a little over seventeen years, the iTRMeoRAT has been aa anwaver tag advocate ef the principles ef the Democratic party. Io the future as in the peat, the Democrat shall oe as naawervingly Democratic as enr knowl edge of the tenets, and love of the doc trines ef that party, can make it. The ad veeaoy ef the cause ef the tax-ridden people of our common c mntry will ever he oar higheat aim, and the main- of Democratic principle our imbttion, and if we fail in any ef heae purposes, it shall he from a wont ef ability rather than a lack ef intention. We eelieva firmly ia the doctrine ef a strict construction of the constitution, of the restriction of the growing tenden cy te the c mtraliz ttioa of power in the Government, of reduction of namW of federal office-holders, and the laductiwi of the eaormeoa taxes directly aa 1 inlirec'Jy levied epon the laboring maae of the country, and aa occasion requires, it abail he oar aim to fearlessly discuss these mat ters fro.o ear etandpeint. But ia enr feeble endeavors to further the cause of the D imecrncy we shall net lose eight ef the interests of onr yet young 8tate of ear county, and enr city. Situated as we are in one of bs finest agrieu 1 tural districts in the world, our farm ing interests are among the most im portant, and the Be OCR AT will always give a hearty we'eons1 to correspondence from the farmer and we shall try te make its col inns ef interest te them by fell market reports and all agri eolteral news items ef interest. We dial I oa careful to collate and give piece in our columns to all import ant news item ef the week an 1 be sidee austaiuing the reputation the Dsuxjrat be asqntreJ as one ef the hoot paper ia the Stat, we will en deavor to make It second to none. In return we desire to ask from the assay patrons of the Democrat the kuadlv aid and co-operation they have tr . - extended to it in times past. It requires money to m ike a success of any enterprise, and a newspaper is no exception to the rule. There are many responsible men wht are indebted to the D smocr at for t wo and even three years subscription, ana whilst the a mount due from each mav osees small, K must be remmWed that where two or three hnndrd are delinquent in the same amount, quite a handsome sum wenll be realised from the'prsmpt Mvraat of arrearage, ami the) pa.ier be pieced upon a better finan eial biu't. VttEMutMY We do not intend this as an imper tinent dun, but merely oall attention to a fact , end leave the matter as well as the fatnre merit of the paper, te tba discrimination of itsoeanv friend and patrons. Cmamssklai k Stitks. BiofcUM-ariL Ths scenes enacted at Salem, at tan daot upon the attempt of Bepablioan members of the legislature o elect United Sutee Senator, are a shame and disgrace to the people of the State. Charges and counter charges of bribery and corruption are freely and openly indulged in. The cheeks of dwuetit Re publicans are nude to blush with shame at the attitude which the party has been made to aeeome in consequence of theeeiltagraeeu! scenes enacted by the oheaan leaders and tepreeentativea of the party. No wonder, thoughtful Republicans are beginning to inquire if the nartv has uot outlived its day of usefulness, and should not go lute liquidation. These bickerings nnd strifes are the natural outgrowth of the workings ot a party U at hae oast off and deserted all principles of go tern mental polity, and devoted it whole strength nad power to the acquisition of the spoils of office. They are the counter part of the exhibitions enscted at Albany, Near York, when the friends of Conkling and Piatt attempted to se cure their reelection sfter the resigns tion of these gentlemen, if rand, for eery, and deception ware the chief means used by the friends of Kelger to secure hie nomination for Governor by the late Republican convention Now York. Regular and ay stem a tic bull dozing were the principal elements of strength used by the friends of HeteO to assure his nomination for Governor in California, Regular bedlam rules eupreme among Republicans of San Franciace in their attempts te nominate a city tick at. Besots ni is, with few exceptions, ruling and controlling the party ae with a red ot iron. The ehiaery of the party all over the coun try ia being oaed effectively by the bosses to eecure offiuee (or themes! v and thoir friends. The ox tra vegan fraud, deeepttoo. shearing, lose ef pe- litioni virtue nnd Amerieaa m penuhsr to the Grant regime are being repeated.

And this aeoeunte for the (act that nearly every broken down pelkteiaa ia the State ia at Salem working for hlitchsll; for that elans of mOa cam always be it.- mend and their aer vices secured by the very means above indicated. But while this unseemly cm test eoee en woen faetaons of the R publican party the business f the L-g slate re is greatly reUrdod. Much deatroU and neodwd legtalatiau will net be secured to the people simply becana of this dugrseeful fight over the spoils ef office. R m4 laws need te be a axon lad. 9 altered, or revised.

And this ia the way the Isndsre of the Re publican party aignalia their party's advent to power.

BcriniM AM FUIMCirt.ES. it u becoming uy more sen wo a vexed question as to what constitutes the ptiuolple oCthe lUpubttcan party. In the Statu of New York, if they have lately exhibited any well defined princi ple, it was that of making a corrupt bargain with Tammany, by which they were enabled to control the organisa tion of the legislature of that State, and r few unimportant and iniignineasst" clerkships. The honor end proud name of the party wee thus stigmatized and burdened with reproach aud shame in order to be able to diattibute a few clerkships to the faithful followers. Siaoe which time the party in that State seems to have fallen into the hands of ths worst snd most vicious element of the party, aa shown by ths circumstances attending the nomination of Folger for Governor by their conven tion, lately held at Saratoga. Judge Robertson, collector of diatoms in New York City, was a member of the Repub lican State Committee, which was called to meet at Saratoga on the day preced ing the meeting of the Republican Con vsntion, but, owing to sick uses iu his familv, was unable to attend the meet- o 9 tug of the committee, When the committee met, Comioia siooor French, a Stalwart, pieeented s telegram pur(orting to he from J edge Robertson, authorising French to set as proxy for him at the meeting of t h- com mittee, lie ess admitted to the meet ing aad by Lis vote the Bute Conven tion wss organised in the interest of Arthur's sdmiuisl ration, end, as a con sequence, the President's candidate, (Folger,) was nominated (for Clover uot. When it a as loo late, it was feuad that the dispatch, presented by French to the con van tion, authorising him to eat far Robertson, was a forgery, and it was thus through forgery, that the administration was enabled to control the Republican State Contention of New York, through the influence of which, PrenJ ut Arth ir and his friends hoe to pave the way for hi renom i nation to the preaideucy in lftftt. It wiH he remembered that J udge R d tart eon is the great If alf-breed leader of the State, through vli.se active energy and political sagacity Coakliug and lialt were defeated in the Naw York legis lature for United States Senators aft- r they had reeigned their seats, brcaoee they ould not control the Federal pat rena w ef tLetr State. So that the only iaaue presents 1 by the Itta tors of th Republican part; iu X -w York is real ly ae te who shall bo cl ined with the eScial power and patronage of the State and Federal governments. This is no partisan statemer.t ef the ooudi. lion of things in New York, but is such aa is gathered from the Ripnbltcan j r-an of that State. Turn tijtne Stat of Ponuklva u, and we are met with the aame condition ef things. There a m.st bitter and un relenting warfare is being waged be eon factions of that parly ovm the bmxumn of Cameron end hie coadjutors. Bet to the thinking man it ia evident that thj animus of the tirht is the loaves an 1 fithes. Bit the question arises how can the leader of that prty retain their power ovet, ami hold on, the devotion of their followers, if tby have become dovaid of principle end bare sunk to the level ef mere political ad venturers and scrambler for place and power 1 We have faith enough in the keety of porpeee, aad love of right and fair dealing among the great rank and file of the Republican party, to say that we believe that party muat change ite leaders and place iuelf squarely be fore the people of the oouutry as their friend and advocate, or it muat iuarite- bly pes into oblivion covered with th anathemas of its former aupKrter and devotes. We turn te the republic in psrty of Virginia, and there we find it tbecoa l- utor aad supporter of the men who hsve mad repudiation ths esta blished policy of the State goremraeut n North Csrolins th-y have fused with all the ism in the State with th- hope of securing the offices, without the least regard to the principles of the various factions which compose the party. And altho igb that party claims to be hard money men, yet iu Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, West Virginia, Ale ut, Georgia and several other States they have united with Urco'tbackors to secure ollice. It would be an imult to the ltrge number ef heuotable and honest men who make up thi great voting element ef the Republican ptrty to say or inti mate that that party can continue ite hold upon the country while it baaie of action and conduct remaius the s i me as now. True, if the Democratic party had to go before the country, suhject to the same criticisms that now attach to the Republican party, it would be crushed out at once, ani th tt by ite own followers, but whatever hold the Ripublioa i party has upon tho coun try now, is that given and maintained by the influence of the spoils ef ofiloe. The New York Tribune speaks of the Democracy of that State a a ptrty without a leader." It looks as though the Republicans might bo described as "leaders without ti ptr ty." Foloer had better be looking about for a soft place to fall. Toe tumble from a position in the cabinet to the shade of private life will j r hie old bones cons! lerahly.

Wo confidently tell our Democratic friondi that they may look for a tidal wave next month. The Han Francleeo Bulletin (Bop.) say: Th chances, then f, re, of the Republicans securing many of the emcao this time in either of those State (New York or Pennsylvania) are few and slim. The peculiarity of the Republican party is, that while embracing within I is ranks a largor share than any other party ef the worth and Intelligence of the country . it has been run for some time almost everywhere by the vilest sot of pollll Cal scamps that ever conspired against public welfare. Democratic booses disappear rapidly, one after another. But tho Republican bossc hold thoir ground without change. The Republican pury mmt destroy the 'machine' die." Verily light I breaking. To situation at Salem, In regard to the Senatorial election, remains unchanged. Mitchell has 38 votes (having lost Dunbar of Washington,) Sbattuck has 29 and the other votes are scattered on Lord R. Williams, C. II. Williams, Failing, Boise and others. The general Impression out side of a few or Mitchell's followers) is that he is now beaten. Unless tteps are soon takon between the contending Republican fictlen-i to compremiso upon some candidate other than Mitchell, there will prob ably bo no election. Whether jjje Governor can appoint, in cao tho Legislature fails to elect, seems not definitely settled. BrlRht'a Olaeaiie, Diabetr, Ktilnry, Liver r I Hoary Olaease.
