It may take the shape of the “bloody shirt,” Tilden’s reeord, “the solid South,” tho results of’the war, or whatever may I come handy ; but the real issue with the Radicals is to di vert public attention from the unexampled corruption of the Radical I party during the past eight years. All the monopolies with which our dis­ tressed people are burthened are tile out* growth of Republican rule. The Reputili- can party has never nbated a monopoly. The Democratic party has never created one. The Republican party always multiplies legislation. The Democratic party persist­ ently removes bad laws from the Statute book. From March 4, 17S9, toJune 30, 1861, or 72 years, the entire net ordinary expenses of the Government were $1,581,706,195; from June 30, 1 SGI, to June 30,1875, or fourteen years, they amounted, exclusive of the pub­ lic debt, to $5.220.250,759. The net ordinary expenses in the ten years of peace since 18A’>, are $2,034,233,412. The total expendi­ tures of the six years of President Grant's administration, ending with June 30, 1875, $1,008,438,461. _______ Hayes »ml the Catholic*. R. B.

The following from‘the Salem Mer­ cury will give an idea of how the Re­ publicans did thing« in Ohio and West Virginia : We are informed by a Democrat that he received a letter from a friend in Weal Virginia, written before the Oc­ tober elections, in which the writer says that the Democracy would be suc­ cessful in that State by an overwhelm­ ing majority, fur the reason that mini, four lh«>u->and negroes had gone over into Indiana to vote the Radical ticket and defeat “Blue Jeans” Williams for Governor. It was also stated in the public prints and not successfully de­ nied that a few days t»efore the elec­ tion in Indiana about fifteen hundred negroes had crossed over into that State from Kentucky for the purpose , of voting the Rulical ticket, and thwart the will of the people living in that State. Democrats and honest peo­ ple everywhere should make a note of this, and rebuke the party at the polls on the seventh of next month that would resort to such disgraceful and dishonorable practices, and bury them for all time to come in the grave of ob­ livion. ’ “Fellow-citizens, I am a bitter and un­ compromising enemy of Roman Catholics.
