" I>o you think there is n:or- corruption in the country
now than there was lu tbe einly days of the Kepublic!"
"I do, both amons public men and private citizens.
This b.-ibrry of representatives ?f t?le peepta, either by
the din ot use of money or by the usa of pallonai?!, has
been practised to an alarming entent, and the purchase
of votes is a sreat evil, Bribery is as well known aa
men's taces, and conviction o| lhe offender* is almost as
hard aa it is to ebanite men's luces. Prosperity has
brourht faculties for corruption which were unknown la
the earlier times. There arc ten meu rick
enough ut ouee to In.? able and have an object to
offer bribes now where there was but one
twenty years ago. Ignorance is a great aid to cor?
ruption. Ignorant men set little value u;hiii tlieii pnliti
cal privileges, and s?i frei|iicntly | ? they sell tin ir vote*
that many resj.ei-table men purchase them ujiou the plea
that it is necessary to do so or abandon tue ? id io those
who will. I know the Governor of a H'at-, not my own,
to Stasai an Irishman presentai himself jaat before elec?
tion with the otter of twelve ratea froiitrolici? by him, and
which he ?breutened to carry over to the riva! candidate
unies* bis terms were accepted. The Governor had
scruples ii?alnst the transaction, but he Ilnallr boiirht
the votes. He leaned that the man aftas S Mil went to
bis rival and so.d twelve volea ou that side, so that
netthercandidate pained by the transaction. Perhaps
that is usually tbe cuae, but votes are, as v. 11lieless, ex?
tensively treated as merchandise. I cannot conceive af
Washington's tolerating the spoils system, nor of our
Sturdy forefathers buying or their workmen's sellinp
votes, and there evidently is unire corruotion lu politics
