To the ffeviocrats of Orojon: , ...v - -., ly iiulliwrity of tlio State Central Committee we publish tlio followiii! and most.earnotttly comoiend it to your attention: There hai nerer beou a time iu th hiury of th. GoT.ru.n.Dt, when LB new it w incumbent up thau now 11 wai inoumoeni up Democrat, to .tand by th. .fd tirau tradition of their parly The conetilution, or rather a Btitutional mii.n ih upon trial. The men who atand up in nlar.en ai the onnositifn, and con- bifih who voice its opiniens in tho arrogance ot their power, are necking to destroy the last veatia.'of Constitutional, lim-itation-rwhich is the essence of con stitutional law and under a speci ous cry ot a "Strong Hovcrnmenl" or the "National Idea," they hide the real issue and pervert even their own followers. Since this Government was organized, the constitutional Uw, has always been, and must ev.r 'je, both the National ami the Feder al idea. We are a nation but many as Slates. In whatever appertain' to treatino; with tho other peoples ot tlio world and to those powers (spec ially delegated by the Slates to the National Government, we are a na lion; but iu that which touches the private as distinguished from the public riolits ot tho citizen, wo are a union ot States. These States hare never surrender ed, and never can, tho unconditioned and absolute rijjht to manage, in their own way the internal domestic arl.iirs ot their own citizens. The receut, exr:i session of Con gress has passed into history, the occasion of a contest between the two ideas. There they met in deadly conflict and the pernicious theory that this country is purely a nat:oii survived the contest vnly because they could say to us, and perhaps truthlully, as oftliem your States are not now limited or circumscribed in the exer cise of any of their constitutional rilus. That session ended, and tne masses of the opposition apparently liiroetting, or, perhaps, remember iiiiTthe lawlessiiess.the shameless law lessness of the 'Stroim Man" in Lonisi ana and South Carolina, are .ailing for that samo hand to bo placed at the helm of 1 lie nation and at the throat of the States. Do Democrats, does tho country, need to emphasize this recent strug gle, and dues it not coinea to us with the intensity of the most earnest con viction that tl eperil to coiHtit ut'mnal liberty can bo averted only by a s'.ern and uiil'alleiiog adherence to th. o d fashioned faith of tlio lath?rs ot the parly. liepuhlicnna even in their best days and before lust of power had eaten away the honesty of conviction, saw ll.e truth, and as loudly almost as ourselves spoke tor tho untrammeled right of eae.L Stale to order ami con trol exclusively its own domestic affairs.

How stingingly this honest Hepnb lican declaration rebukes their party ot to-day and th. great captain who bas been twico President, Hut the party has advanced. Less than eighteen months ago the Uepublican Convention of Iowa, where the He publican idea lias fed and fattened upon itself in very literalness, de clared that the national power gave and protected till and every right ol - . a . .1 II . .1 I! the citizen.

The particulars of a melting and cold blooded murder have reached us from Ilillsboro. Th. victim of this fiendish crime is a German named Jacob Swang.r, who lived a hermit lik. life in a small sheeting sevui mile, north of Ilillsboro and two mil. from Springville. The lifeless and mutilated remains of the mur dered man were soon by a neighbor on Friday morning, who went to the cubin to transact some business with its occupant, and finding thu doors looked and bit od marks in the vicin ity, he procured assistance and burst ing open tho humble dwelling was ceutronted with evidence ot the crime. Swanger's head was crushed anil, his right arm severed from the body above the wrist. Deceased was an old man ot nearly (iO venrs. . . --- j . who from his industrious and ectnom- ieal habits, was generally supposed to possess considerable means and kept his money on the premises. The murderers, lor mere is evidently more thau one, as seen bv the tracks, ac complished their purpose with an ax nnd subsequently rouued the cabin of everything of value they could discover. The perpetrators of tlia Khockinir trairedv are unknown. though the cil'uens of Washington county are making every euon 10 traco and capture them. The track of a man was lotmd leading from the house, which was followed, through the imnl and snow about three quar ters of a mile when it was lost. The whol. atbiir is envelopod 111 mystery.
