the consideration that Gov. Grover would
suspend the execution upon any judgment
against Dowell and May? A —No, sir.
<2—Did you make any agreement with
Chadwick that )ou would run a straight
Republican ticket with a view to elect the
Democratic ticket? A—I never did. I never

Troop» in tlie Mouth.
We notice that much complaint is
being made about the scarcity of U. S.
troops in this department. Some Re
publicans, without due consideration,
at once lay the blame at the doors of
the Democracy, and say it is due to
their clamor for the reduction of the
army. The truth is, our army is large
enough now to spare 10,000 men for
the Idaho Indian war—instead of 800—
if necessary; but they are in the South
where there has been no need of them
for ten years past. The cause of the
meagrenessof the force here is in the use
of the army In the South last Fall to
carry the election and put the Radi
cals in power—throttling free States
for the purpose and threatening the
existence of our liberties as a people.
Some of those troops, says the Stand-
ard, have now at this late day been
ordered from the South to this Coast.
It is well for our people to brood over
these misdeeds of Radicalism and to
remember that, though the million ma
jority of the Democrats have been
cheated out’of their President, yet it
is only the force of this overwhelming
Democratic opinion that has turned
the Radical leaders from their wicked
designs.

New York Tribune says there
is “no break in the Democratic party
South.” Why should there be? The
Democratic party has nothing to break
about. There is not enough left of the
Republican party to make a dent in
the Democracy. The Democrats are
not disturbed because the Republicans
have stolen the Government and are
running it on Democratic principles.
Least of all are the Democrats disu
nited or divided on that account,
Their principles unite them. Their
great majority keeps them united,
Their possession of the affirmative of
the question: Is the theft of the Gov
ernment a crime? makes them feel
pretty comfortable and hopeful, and
attaches all persons morally and intel
lectually entitled to the right of suf
frage to them. Why should they
“break?”
