Wasmisaron, 1, C.,0ct. 15.~The Republican Congressional Committee has advices® which glve stroug reason to hope that llayes and Wheeler can carry North Carolina. It appears that the joint debate between Judge Scttle and Vance has beon of very great service to the Re- publicans, and las revived the Unfon feeling mnong the old Whigs of that State, which might not have not have been arrayed on the side of the Republican party cexcept for Vance's atroclous disunion genthinents and record. It appears, also, that the Deino- crats do not dare to enter upon a course of in~ timidation towards the negroes in North Caro- 1ing, a8 they Liave been advised offleially by the Republican Unlon men that any resort 1o vie- Tence would be resented by force. The North Carolinn Demacrats know that the white Unfon- Ists of the State arc numerous amd resolute cnough to make good their word, BOUTH CAROLIXA. The Committee s also certain that Bouth Carolina will give its Elcctoral vote for Hayes and Wheeler, notwithstandiug the intimidation practiced by the Democrats. The latter do not venture fo resort to such measures in the southern countles, where the negroes have such treniendous tajorities, for the whites well kuow that such a course would be answered by tho torch. iutimidation s, therciore, resorted to In the Republican northern counties,.where negroes ars not so numerous. 1t s i these countics ouly that troops are desired to protect tho voters. The Democrats have greutly exag- gerated this application for troups. The dele- gatfon which is now here ouly nsks for three conspanies. If the request is granted, it {s quite prabable that Col. Merelll, who mada sucl: sue- cessful Ku-Klux arrests in that State, will be placed in command. - GOY.

The Republicans of DuPage ield thelr County Conventlon on Saturdsy at Wheaton, nominat- ing county officers in the forenoon, followed Ly a mass-meeting in the Court-House at 2 p. m, Tke handbills announced that the mectieg would be addressed by the Hon, Z. Eastoian, followed by other spealicers. By a slngular co- incldence there were three speakors present who belonged to the editorial profession: . Blale- dale, of . Rockfordy Mr. O. A. Willard, of the Post aund Mad; ond Mr. Z. Dr. Sedgwick, the Chalrman, introdnced the first speaker, reinarking that he would be remombered as the editor of anold newspaper, which 2 long time ago muny of the people of DuPage County had read in thelr childhood.—the Weatern Citlzen, an Abolition pa- per that taught the doctrines of the Republican party before that party was organized. Mr. Enstman spoke for an hour, of which the follow- Ing is a brief sbstroct: - The speaker said that the Chalrman's remarks brought vividly to mind the days fn which the people of DuPoge, In common with a few of the early reform bod fought the great moral Dattie of sl , which had preceded the physi- cal battles in’ the late Warof the Kebelilon, which had declded the tate of slavery, Nosuch areat conflict of forces could cver take place among men without s previous contlict of fieas, He invited the people to comply with the invita- tion he had read in_ the handbill, and come and reason together on tho Issues of the voming election. Let it be under- stood, sald the speaker, that T came to advoents the eleetion of Hayes and Wheeler to the Prusl- deney and Vice-Presidency, and, to do Jf, carn- estly, I wish to efvo the ‘best possible reasons for thelr clectlon, If Letter reasons can be as- slgned for thelr electfon than for thy candidates of the other slde, then they ought to be elected. The elcetion Is the {ssto Uetween the Repub- Jean and the Democratle parties, ‘e eltizens of the country gt as judge and jury to decide this case, Now let us deelde it Tulfls. Let us have the best of reasons for our decision as to whom and for which party we will vote, Every one of usis intcrested fu hay- fugr the'best men elebted and the rieht party suceeed. ‘There may besome things favorably to both sldes; but, divided as the parties are, they cannot both bo righit. Oue candidate or tha other ought tobe elected, andthe otherdefeated, The devil was alck, the devil & monk wonld bes 'n.Ic davli got woll, e dusil & monk wns e, v suppose It will be the lople of my talk to- day, the ery of “Reform Ilnrnrm}l" in tho Dewnocratic “party. Reform fs needed. We must * ask whether the Re- publicans have any right to take any stock In this reform business. L scerus to 1 that now, while reform fs abont the only flourlshing Lusiness that s undertaken, thit white per- sccutors of aholitionists, the dealers fn h?ncl; Labics, the supporters of whisky constinption, repcaters and baliot-hox stuffurs, the promoters of moby, soldiers fn the Rebel army, sud Demo- crats who voted for Buchanan amd hung John Bro\vui have becomo reformers; and whito ‘Til- den, Hendricks, Joln Morrlssey, and Tweed, and Tammany have turned reformers, there oueht o be room fur siiure, und somo of the uld Abolitionists and Lincoln Rtepublleuns ought Lo be permitted {o come to the front again, nnd iry their hand at reform once snore, There is need of reform, and Republicans who deay it ( aoy do, aro not wlse. Nefther should they deny their abllity to work a reform, nor #hirk thie responatbility. If thero Is any class of prople now falrly nnd “squarely faclug the ovils of the thnes, in the Governinent or out of it, in party or In the community, fn the mnchinery of ]mllllcs or_in soulety, they are the vld Repub- Icans, such us voted for Lincoln, the natural reforiners of the past generation. Calt theao men to the frontand you will have the good old times made new agafn, We cannot get along with thissubjeet without alittle history. We ito not Auy, 43 our Demo~ ¢ratle champtons do, that we hinve no wish to go Lack into the records of the past. We havo nothing in the past that we ure ashamed of. Ilera'the spealier gave n brief nistory of the parties of the past, remarklng that they are tho vecullar product of this country, and come from the treedum of the_people In izovernment—not. nceded where people haveno ehioiee. He showed: there was 1o apostolic suceession i party, That the only succcssion that could be trheed was in the antl-slayery sentiment running from Washe Ington’s Admfuistration legitimately througl the first Republiban party, whichi was the nammo taken by thie Jeffersou party, through Madlcon and Monrue, to John Quiney ‘Adame, then under o cloud il the antl-glavery party was organ- ized, then Fremont, and culminating fu Lincoln und the end of slavery frot the Relicllion. % TUB DESIOCRATIC PARTY W88 2 new party, having no connecting link bee youd Jackson's time. It hud many fathers, bug nalnly begotten of the spoila system of New York." Jnckson’s doctring of the removals from offense, intensified by the Van Buren school, that “To the victors belong the spoils,” was tho waln source of tho political corruption of the lmr‘t“ whkil': hul.\r [l c::‘llulll nll“ pm!c‘:;. A new party was then formed by Marey, Van Buren Amos }\undnllbflwnnnu(.)nn,\‘t ¢ Co., whozo affinity was the Irfsh vote ‘and the univer- el foafer; its love wus the hatreds of the worship was ucFrn, itn the slaveholder, fig Inspiration was the spoils of ofifce. Under its rule no nution ever before sunk so fow in the scale of its politicenl intez- rity. It fed upon tha money of the North, It plindered the Indlaus, IL hunted the negro, it inade war on_Mexico, it tried to mske u grand slave etupire of the whole cotion region of the South around the Gulf of Mexico and Cubu, and, being frustrated in these, and its ageres- sfons overruled by the providence of God for the fnterest of free labor, it culininated fn trea- con. It sought to destroy the very Gov- crument that it had long simply ueed us an instrument in itz “unholy work, Such s the listory of the Democratic party, whese antevedents its votera now eay they do not wish to discuss. None can doubt the wisdom of the wish. The Nstory of the Republican party fs the converse of this, Whatever of antl-slavery hos- tility there has been bas come down and flowed futa this party. It has combated the Demo- cratic party in all its evile. It combered it und conguered it in battle, when it matured in ree hellfon. The Republiean party Is, therefore, the patriotie party. But s this party of to-day thie Demavratic party of twenty and thirty vearsazo! To our nstonlsbment, we find It the same, alive aud ftrong, The Federal parly wisely died under the bure ruspiclon of treason. The Democratic party is allve and_strong under the han of con- fessed treason. There 18 no apostolie elicces= slon, s we have shown, {n the politieal partive, but there Is a Satanfe Successio. It iy the gse tonishinent of the, age that a party which los made such o record, and s suppused to bave been Killed fnusuppressed rebelllon, should be alive again, It{s moercof n marvel than the valley of dry bones. Suci {s the vi- tality of (ulvylhy. It "hos its parallel only in the life apd timis of Batan, a8 wiitten out in the sublime lines of Milton. - Rebellfon and dis comflture did not kI him, but in the new region to which he waa exiled, surveving tho vast desolation {n the majesty of his naliguity, he deelares, ““Evil, he'thou my good.™ The Democratie party we huve not been ubla ta send eveninto exile. It comes now and asks to be Intrusted with the Government aguin, It wants the votes of American citizens to put it In possesston again. Now, thls ¢{s the truth history," as John P, Hale used to say, [t isnot Dest for intellizent citizens, ot least, to dlseard the history of thelr country when they &re to make up a verdict, ‘We gre told that vo polltical purty over did or can relorm ftacll. Reform must come from without, We are told this, os If it Were a knock- down argument killing all thet comes under its Ulow. Wy, the Republicans hardly dare ta meet it and repel it. L want to tell you that it Iy not only not true,butthat itissupremenonsense. ‘The truth of hilstory does not esustain the usser- tlon, [n only one fustance, that of the Democratio party, Thut party did never reform itself, and never will, It deépends on the nuture of the cresture whether ft will reform Itsell or _nat. The great rebel, Sntan, dld not reform within Timeelf or ‘without, so he took up his hat und: left for parts unknown to all good people, Re= beilion {3 the erfme that hath no reformation, though j& ey be forgiven, But every other party in this nation buv the Democeraticy has re- formed, whenever there was any,necd for ref- ormution, o very sensibly gave” up the ghost s ot fit to live, THAT TRDERAL i the {nstance of the latter lleun of Jeffepdon thmes was u reformatory Ty The old Repub- We havy Lad a successful party which rushed the natlon on to rebellion and nesr to destruc- tion. W cannot sfford to repeat tho experi- ment, Now, which of the purties should suc- ceedd ‘That is thoe question. ” Then let uas bring to the solution ot the problem the best patriotic reasons, and the triest facts of history. The Ih-publlmu purty have administered tho Goyernment for sixteen years, aud bave held the ofllces, und sumo may lave fattened mpon thum. For sixteen years the party eatled the Democratic party hias been watching Mko the bungry cat for the mousr, to spring into the hole It tlicy canwret tnnl(uunhhc- ans vizt. The Republican party selzed the Gov- ernment from the Democrutie party, and found it it the hands of 4 nest of traltors.” Democracy ened into treason, 'Fhe seed of Demods racy sown in the -goll: doctiine of the State of New York, and fn Jackson’s Admluistration, und Vaun Buren's, and in ita alllance with the mwd{. fsin of the Northand sluveholding of theSouth, naturally and Inevitably ripened “fnto rebetlion. “ Ag ye sow, so shall "u reap.” **Ile that sow- cthto the wind shull reap the whirlwhind,” “Uhess ave politieal doctrlues which ought always to be remembered. * TUL REPUBLICAN PARTY reseued the Goversment trom teadtors, That party spurned to ally {tself with slavery, nud rowdylsin never came to it futuitively.” That party not ouly fouuht for tho Union, but it abollshed slavery, ‘This s the record and repu- tation of the llu}\uhumn party, Lonly ask you to glance at the two important facts, well hnown to ull, which mark the culmination of the two parties of the past—treason on the one sidey ln)‘nllf’, aud the salvation of the Govern- ment, aid the abolition of slavery (the sutirce of the Rebelllon), on the other. ~ Now, «which party ought to bo trusted with the Governuent, —the party which destroys it, or tho party which saves it1 1 know there has been an attempt to shift this (ssuc; to deny thut the Republicau party suppressed the Rebellion: and to iguore the record of the Democruey, and to made a new departure for it, from sume period since the ites bellion wus suppresseds tRat old issucs are dead, aud o new potitical organization baa come futo exlstence, 'Phe Hepubliewn party 18 charged with belng corrupt, and held respinsible for alt the podits feal sins of tho duy.
