Conductor and Vice-president, At a certain period, some six or eight years ago, the officers of one of our princi pal railroads had good rcasous for beliov iug that some of the conductors up >n n pnrticuh'r section of their roads were in tho habit of rendering inaccuratr returns of their receipts frotu "way passengers;' and as they were unable to fix the defal cation upon the particular individuals, IMnkerton wns cuiplovcd to investigate tho matter, and test tho accuracy of their suspicions. For tho execution of this delicate service he selected a mfheicnt number of his best men to furnish four for every ear in a train one to be seated at each door und two iu the oenire of the car, the latter facing to tho front and rear, so as to seoevory person who went iu or out. These men were dircc ted not to recognize each other, but io pay their fares, and otherwise deport themselves like ordinary travelers. Each one was provided with pencil and paper, and instructed to keep un aecu rate record ofovery person that entered or left .he ears, noting the stations to and from which they frivole 1. etc , so ihitt if at the end of the trip th sir nates were, in accord, it would bj go "id eri denen* or accuracy.

Why n o Hoiior tho Party. We arc suspicions ofthe-tnan who is continually boasting of hw noble ancestry. To know a mnn, we uinst know what ho is, not what.his fathor was. Noble descent is well enough in its place, but when a man has nothing bettor to boast of than his pedigree, he has reached the bottom,-and is'little better than tho snail that looks up with envy at the strong-winged esgle in its lofty flight. It ia nobler trt<fi8cend than descend ; to improve on the family stock rather than deteriorate. To fall back upon tho reputation of our groat-great grandlathcr to sustain our owu, is little hotter than robbing a grave to secure the jewels buried in it. So With pnrties; we honor them for ?hat they are, not what they were in days gone by. We sec nothing iu Democracy but the shadow of a great name. When wo ask what it has to commend it to our con fidence, its Tweeds and Garveysand Warmoulh, with thoir party plunder concealed from view, point us toils honorable past, before slavery corrupted it* honor, or trer.s?n destroyed i'.s political virtue. Not so with tie ftopub licao party ! V\ ? glory ' iu its past achievements, because out of them have crown its^f>rc3cnt strength and nohiflty. What it was yesterday it is to day, a living, moving power, excrtin? au in fluence for good ; defending the nation from its enemies St homo atul abroad ; protecting the liberties of tue people; establishing schools for popular educa tion ; reaching out its ar.uftto restrain monopolies from < ucronching. upon the rights of the people; holding the scales of justice between capital gpd labor ;. organizing moans to ro ioviv the pro duccrs of the West ami thefeonsuniorn of tho East, and exacting frkm its ser vants an honest, and ecouot'v&al admin ietratiou, of the l.overnf^ur.;^*?->r good and sufficient reasons We honor the llepublican party. We fake just pride in its past aobievbients, because they have given birth to our preBUu^ uspir.i lions. Wo have taken no st-p back watd. come of our srand w I Bearers have proycu false, but tho rank and file wee true, and loyal hands caught up the old flag and kept it aflo-.t in t!;o vaiigu.id of civilization. The noblest artny will have its deserters, the noblest party will have its faithless servants, but neither army nor patty can suffer as long ns the great body remains true to the oauso. J he Republican party reprejeati the progressive ido.isofthe people, uot tho ambitious designs of it.-> leaders Tho def ection, of a, laader, -thu dishonesty of au ?Hjoial, the failure of a representative to reflect the wishes of his coutitueuts, have no other effect than to arouse the people to greater caution IU the selection of their public servants The great political body is sound ; its faults ate few, and, when discovered, easily remedied. A* tho present condi tion of tho party ia as worthy of com hicudation as its past, so tho luture will add. rather than detract, from its glory. We have much to do; the wot!, so well accomplishes} .having brought other and larger duties for the patty to perform : To disarm ign iranoo, suppress vice, pro tect |abor encourage immigration, de velope our wounderful resources, protect the publ.c credit, ujapt the national cur redcy to tho wants of the public, and to maintain justice und secure honesty in every to? lion of the land and every biaueb of the (ioVci uuuut. are duties us imposing as any that ba\e been laid upon the party io the past.? IZcchanffc A Difference of opinion. Tl cro is a slig!it difference of opinion between Domoorats, North and South. The hard-shells of th ? South insist on keeping Democracy on tho old Calboun platform, while their brethren of the North as strongly insist ou tearing up the old planks and replacing thoin with timber stolen from the Republican reservations. To gain a new L-uso ol power Northern Democrats aro willing to make any sacrifice. To support the family pride,and keep up the pot theory oi "a whito man's government" South ern Democrats refuse to yield their old i pro-elavcry principles. Tho Southern sentiment is honustly stated iu the fol lowing extract from the Memphis Avntanchc, (Dem): l4In fact the old Democratic party managen have been forced by the inex orable logio of events to surrender every thing but tho name. To this thoy still cling in meat of the 8tates. Their plat form is labeled 'Democratic,' though in all, or nearly all essentials it is little elsu thau a pnraphraeo of tho Republi can party platform of the past few years. As a measure of policy no objection can be tuado ; but to deliberately smash ?no I partisau creed, filch a new one from one's enemy, and then insist thit, be cause bearing the old name it is still the same t Id creed, is to speak mildly, ar rant hypocrisy. The dootrioe held by A. II. Stephens, by Robert Toombs, by JefTersou Davis, enunciated in the Dem ocratic platforms of 1364 and 18?8, by Uluntoo Duucun's Bourbon Convention which numinated Charles O'Conor for President last year, is tho 'uuoient Dem ocratic faith.' It is the simon puro ar- , tiele. All other brands are spurious ; yet not a 'Democratic' Convention, North or South, now ventures to incor porate it iu a platform. If the old par tisan creed?as is the fact?has beeu utterly abaudoned; if to maintain a jtrugglo for mere existonce it has b> coiue necessary'?as is tho fact?to adopt, to so great an extent, tho Repub lican party platform, why filing to tho old Democratic name, especially since that name has become so unpopular as to bring defeat to any organisation that bears it? This is answered by a fow heroics ovor tho past careor of tho eld party. But of what avail ? They can not change iniuoritie? to majorities. Public confidence in a political party ouee lost, eau never be restored." Tlie Pittaburg /W, (Dem.) publish ed in cooler latitude, differs slightly io opinion from the above extract. It says : "Tho Democratic party has been cut of power for twelve years. During all that period it has been gaining strength, and but for the uegre.vnto it would at this moment hold possession of our State and Gcnernl Government. Cam [?lire ftAlr.tcry In'ThTsf'tr."p*e*lV'ti?Ii"ftl it of its jppoueuts, aud uow greaf; and what proof it affords of the honest tenacity of tho eeiid voting port ion of the party, the rank and file. Tk% Pcni oorutic party is replete with vitality in every bouo and sinew and nerve. It never can die while there remains in existence even a portion of the Constitu tion for which it can ontand. When that glorious old political party dies it '..ill be proof that the Constitution has beeu utterly destroyed, and that the last hope for man's self government has perished from tho earth." Panics. Panics, like extensive conflagrations, have small beginnings. A spark has within it the power to lay in asl.es the largest city. If fed ly combustible material, it roon becomes a flame, before which iron melts and grauitc crumbles into dust. So with panics. Words of suspicion are the sparks that leads to financial conflagrations. Distrust is breathed from one to another ; instead of being quictod by calm advice, it is fed by popular excitement. Those who have least to lose are tho loudest in their croaLings over coming failures. A ru-di is made to sacrifices st.ie.k that is both profltnblo aud B.ife ; it is thrown upon tha market along with fancy uud Werth less stock. A scusa of insecurity seizes tho buyer, and the result is, no sales, or ruinous sacrifices of stock that o:i!y needed the restoration of ooufidouco to be worth more than ever. When a ?re bro.-ks out, efforts are made to ooofiue it within its original limits. Hut the breaking out of distrust in a community is the sigonl, not for united eh'oi te to confine it within its legitimate bounds, or its suppression, but for a general rush to feed the flames by gessip, ill ouieuod prophecy, or groundless rumors of some indefinable calamity. A rumor starts, affecting the financial standing of some bank official. It matters little whether it bo true or false ; the whisper is soon transformed into a storm. A sudden rau is made upon thobauk; thou upoti other banks, until the whole community is iu a ferment. If the bauks have facilities for prompt eonver siou of securities iuto cash, tho storm may blow over ; but if distrust is wide spread, moucy is locked up or held for oclf protection, aud bauks that are perfectly souud are driven by sheer ueccssity to suspend payment. No reasonable man can expect a banker to pay interest on deposits aud keep those deposits locked iu his safe, roady to be returned without a momeut's notiee ; yet men who claim to be reasonable act at times as If tho thought this to bo the ease. Hunks pay interest upon money, because they can loan the money received for a higher rate of interest than they pay. They take securities for nionoy loaned. T j convert thoie, into money requires time; and thos. having deposits should bo considerate enough to grant it."" The\_beai jtjuk in the country may be forced to suspend payment in the face of an unexpected and unreasonable domaud, especially if popular excitement has so unsettled valusa as to render tho conversion of securities iuto ca^u.. aluioit i:??po_i:ble. Panics should be stopped at tho moment of their inception. Men of ability aud judgmont should unite to quiet popular distrust. Confidence should* bo strength oned by every legitimate mean:). Deposi tors, uuless thoy havo good reason* for demanding payment, should asssbj rather than cripple, tho bank whose oredit aud standing they depend upon.1 blxcoptional cases Of failure iniy occur at any timo, but a panic, suoh asroe^nt ly swept over tho financial centres of tho country, ought to bo an impossibility. We trust that the press of the land will exert its powerful iofiuonoo towards mahtaiuing a healthy t'.aie of public confidence. Oar Best Met* for Ofllco. To destroy tho Republican party because a few dishor?.st men havo crept into office through its power, would be as wise as the killing of a healthy indi vidual because a few boils trouble hi.:;. The p irty oevar was. more hoalthy than at present. The few officials that are proven di.-dionsit are, to ?hoj?roat body politic, what the spots an the eun are to the "blaSring orb that gives u; light and warmth. As long as the masses of tho people,- who oompoac the party arc hon- j ^Try^pr-tiued,1 ? wu' >"iii^sWisSBk>wVAlwi part itself. Every Republictn eonveu - tion which has met thus fur has placed ftBolf oo record as being determined to iJrive men from office who Tail to prac tice economy nnd honesty in their public duties. We shall nover free ourselves i ntirely from t'no iufiuenco of bad men. They will c.eop into powor in spite of C..e proutcat care and watch fulnosi. Wc cm. however, throw an increased pro ^ctien around the public servioo by a more thorough examination of the char t otcr of the men, who present themselves for our aupport. A good citizen will s cueially make a good official. This is a simple rule which, if praeticoJ in tho selection of candidates, will greatly pro tect the public interests. Tnquiro into the private character of tho m m who wants your vote, and if you find him honest, industrious, charitabl?, a good neighbor, and a public spirited cili/.eu, yyU cau saf'Jy give him your veto and support. You may run tho risk, even then, ofbeinr cheated; but tho chances will be so small that you can well afford the risk. Dut to expect to Koeure an honest official, iu the man who never pays his . debts, who takes advantage of Iiis neighbor, whose character is staiue 1 by iulemperanco or profanity, is to pxpect a clear bal tnes sheet in the other world without payingyour printor's bill iu this. Nominate your best moo for ^office and the risk offiuding dis honesty in high places will bo exceeding ly small.?Exchange. The True Distinction. Who would think of condemning a worthy merchant because hedisoovived in his employ a dishonest olerk ''. Sympa thy, rather than blatno, would bo ex tended to him, and every fair minded man would approve the prompt dismis sal, aud, if the law was violated, the speedy puaiahiueut of tho offender. Why, thou, should our opponouts dcaoance the Republican party booauso it dis covers among its thousands ef officials a few exceptional oasis of dishonesty ? Tho party repudiates tho acts of dis honesty, and the people put their stamp of condemnation, not only upon the ofience, but upou the offender. No act of dishonesty, or official guilty of crirou j uo questionable or iniquitous measures have ever been condoned or protected by the Kepublican party. As sooa as known, an earnest pretest has gone up against them, and those involved have bcon called to a strict account . This is all that cun be done. Individuals are liable to be deceived. A party can rise no higher nor better divine the future tIi;ti) the individuals who compoieMt.
