Tin “New BeptHw*'” The eonntiy U in quite a stir just no*, North and South, upon the anbjeet of the ‘•New Departure" of the Democratic par ty in the States of Pennsylvania and Ohio, u proclaimed in their respective platforms put forth by their late State CouveatioiuL A* a matter of near*, as well as of deep interest to our readers, we publish else where in to day’s issue the comments of a few of our Democratic exchangee, vis: The Augusta Conetituliovaliet, the Mem phis Appeal, the Cincinnati Commoner the Greensboro’,.

To each and all of these comments we the special attention of men of nil ies who feel an interest in the main- and perpetuation of free institu te this country. _ e position of the Sen is independent politics. This has been its positiiio retofore, and will continue to be in the iture under its present oontrol. Its pro prietors are Democratic in principle hut independent of all party trammels. Our mocracy is founded upon the princi ple! of Thumat Jegernm. From these we shall never depart at the bidding of any ty, faction or clique, styling itself De- locratic, or assuming any other name. nciplee only truly mark and charao- rizo parties. The present Bepublioan party, totalled, has quite as fascinating a name as that of the Democratic party. It was assumed by the haulers of that faction for the pur pose of carrying out, under a popular flag, their concealed objects of Consoli dation, Centralism and Empire. Party namet weigh but little with us. We look solely to principles in judging of the true and real character of any par ty, and so, looking to the principles an nounced by the “New Departure” Dem ocrats— to-called—of Pennsylvania and Ohio, we confess that we see no differ ence between them, so far as relates to the 14th and 16th amendments to the Constitution of the United States, and the principle on the same subject of the Hiding Dynasty at Washington, whether they be called Republicans, Radicals, Ja cobins or Imperialists. The new movement seems to ns to be nothing but an open abandonment of the old creed Democratic party in its most essential parts, and the full espousal of the doctrines against which that party Inis warred since the days of Jefferson. jjUiiH is our independent position upon thenibject.

In our lsst issue, ws gave our readers an article on this subject, referring spe cially to the Democratic platforms ie- oently put forth bv the Democratic State Conventions in Ohio and Pennsylvania, _ . .synopsis of which platform, was also , Peunwylvama peraocraUc Convention, referred to. In this article we said we I o. the Ohio Convention are to had no ambition for platform-making, £“*■“ even if we had the ability. I bm, we at the North, we this connection, ih resolution of the repent. Our position is, and ha* been, that the old Democratic platform is good enough. We wanted no tinkering with it No new planks or new principles incorporated in it—and above all, we wanted no abandonment of any of its essential principles by any sort of a the North intend to do for ns, then we ask most respectfully, what worse can be expected from those whom they are pleased to style our enemies ? Is there any difference between them so far as our rights, interests and Constitutional liberty are concerned ? If so, in what ? We ask for information. Shall we join new departure." As to nonessentials | “ ud any party holding these pom- or matters of local character, we were, and are utterly indifferent, leaviug the Democracy of each State, on such points, to pursue such course as they may think proper. All we have now to add to what we said on this subject last week, is that upon a careful reading and close scrutiny of the Resolutions of the Conventions of Pennsylvania and Ohio, as authorita tively published, we find them upon one subject, « and that of essential importance in a creed for the Democracy of the Union, to be very different from our im pression as to their character when that article was writen. There is nothing in either of these platforms which recog nises the 14th and 15th amendments, so- called, to the Constitution of the United States, simply as “dr/acto" parts of the organic law of the Union carried by "fraud, perfidy and force”—and to In- observed and confirmed to as such until htfully gotten rid of only by the peace ful operation of the ballot and the other instrumentalities of the Costitntion. It clearly implies, and perhaps was intended (though somewhat covertly) to loclare that these amendments are parts of the Constitution—right both* * * * " * * 11 i in principle and mode of adoption— of these grounds. The exact and seemingly cautious words of tions, to come into power for no purpose but to enrich themw-lves by public spoils and plunder, while they clinch the Jaco bin nails in the colfin of the liberties of tho North as well as the South ? Heaven forbid, uw say. We cannot conclude, however, without expressing the opinion, that these oon ventions in Ohio and Pennsylvania WERE PACKED. These resolutions do not, as we believe, express the views of the real Democracy of those Ptates. An overwhelming ma jority in each is against them. This is hut the work of tricksters. We have true friends at the North—we mean true friends of constitutional liberty. We want and claim no other sort of friends. The liberties of the North as well as the South are in jeopardy. We claim as friends those only in both sections who are for maintaining these liberties throughout the country. If these real friends of public liberty at the North shall succumb and ^ive_up thfe jtruggle, what shall we do question we propose rics who have been entreaties for silen< Uliore. We verily this silence on the part of 11-in ten tioned and over- lmlists, tin succeeded. TELEGRAPH NEWS Special Diipat&es to Tie Sa FOREIGN NEWS. J Mrme et BegutUrejm m VM. .

The trial of Columbus Reeee, charged witli the murder of Monroe Edwards, came off this week before Judge Andrews, in Sparta. The homicide was committed more than a year ago, in Taliaferro ooun- ty; but a change of venue became neces sary, because a jury under the law oould not lie obtained in Taliaferro, and the case was transferred to Hancock county. The verdict of the jury was "guilty.”— Tiie Stab* waa represented by Solicitor General Morton and John 0. Reid, of Lexington, and the defense by Miles W. Lewis, of Greensboro, and John A Ste phens, of this city. A new and elegant Methodist Church has recently been erected in Warren ton. The iuside painting is about being fin ished.

In all these counties the wheat crop is reported as affected more or leas with rust, while cot ton is unusually backward.

From the Memphis Appeal, June X There is a sense in which we accept all mtimtions, And take what comes.

In this sense* we all accept ‘‘accomplished facts, whether they Ih* the results of love aud charity or of malice and mnrder. But it does not follow that we should all, like pack of fools, run off after Longstreet and consent that might makes right, or with Mivissippi get on our knees at the foot stool of usurpation, and by pretending to think what if another should say of us we should prouounoe an atrooions slander, prove our want of prescience by getting whipped into the bargain, or, with our own shrewd and eo nomine*, Hon. Jacob Thompson, go to honey-fugling the nn groes, aud pretending what even they know l>etter thau to believe, that they are religiously and morally superior to white people. We had rather staud up for truth aud the right and get whipped at it, thau auenk like ao many hounds into the possession of all the crumbs that can fall from the table of the autocrat and despot The leaders who would degrade the Southern people, and have them crawl for policy and pelf to infamy are as unscrupulous and contemptible as the shoddy thievi eves who prayed night and rd would defend the morning that the Lot right by oontiuuing a fratricidal war until they made their fortunes. We pre tend not to be less ambitious, less grasp ing, or less selfish than men should or are likely to be. But when wooanuot up with honor to the principles. ji, and views and truths we really entertain, are called on to sustain the positions, theories or practices which forbid that we should look an honest man in the faoe without blushiug iu conscious shame, we desire to lie delivered from politics, from religion, from home and country, and from aMnociatiou with uiankiud. by the power Constitutionally appoiut- id 15th most be meant the 14tk an* amendments, so-called, of the Constitu tion of the United States.

In point of fact, is it not notorious that ten State's were denied that voice by a majority faction in Congress ? Nay, more; is it not notorious that after they were thus unconstitutionally proposed their NOMINAL AND FRAUDULENT RATIFICATION was oarried by military foroe, and by ill *’ ’ violently revolutionizing the govern ments of these ten States? Are not these admitted facts and truths? Who but those already prepared for imperial ism and despotism in its most odious form can have the face to assert the con trary?

But the Presidential canvass is a full year off. When it does come, "with the lightH now before us,” we shall advise the former Confederate SUtee to keep clear of the National Democratic Conven tions. They canuot go into one and express their honest opinions and wishes witnout damaging their Northern allies. They cannot adopt the opinions of their North ern allies without discrediting them selves. The disastrous experience of 1868 would be repeated in 1872. We doubted the policy of the Southern men taking seats in the convention at Tam many Hall then. We thoroughly be lieved it impolitic.

Joseph refused to accept the situation and went to prison. Moses did the and had to fly to Jethro; David not accept the situation and had to fly from Saul. Isaiah declined to take pow er for being falae and suffered numerous persecutions. The Macabees would not accept the situation, neither would John the Baptist, and because he would not, Herod’s daughter asked his head on * platter, and r»*oeived it.

Murrain, Jnne 9.—There ing affray, yesterday, at Bledsoe’ ing, fifty miles below here, between two young men named Colliers and Dunn, arrising from an insignificant cause, during which the former was shot and instantly killed. Dnnn made hia escape. A Frenchman named Dorioia, a butcher, was attacked by three negroes this morning, at Fort Piokering and beaten, shot and robbed. Two-negroes, named Wm. Harris and John Roscnborongh, who were convict ed of murder sometime ago, before the Crittenden county, Arkansas Court, were atMarii hanged tovlay st Marion, in the presence of about fifteen hundred persons, mostly negroes. At noon the Sheriff went to prepare them for the exeention, when they both set upon him and beat him severely. The assistance of one of their fellow prisoners wa* called into requisi tion, and when about to enter their cell, Harris struck him a fearful blow with a brick, breaking it over bis brow. The assistance of five other prisoners was then oalled in. On their approach ing Harris, he struck one of them with an iron bar, after a severe struggle both were overpowered and brought out into the hall. When they saw the light of the sun they bepan to prav and sing, and thru they continued while they were being tied and until they reached the scaffold, whither they marehed between a guard of whites and negroes, armed witn shot gone, oolored preachers in the meantime offering prayers aud exhortations. Upon the scaffold they were asked if they had any thing to say, whereupon Koeen bo rough began speak ing and oon tinned his remarks in a rambling, incoherent manner, praying and singing part of the time, for nearly half an hour, and making a full confes sion, giving in detail the manner in whioh he killed young Freeman, merely to ob tain possession of two revolvers. He finally wound up by giving hia hearers, particularly the negroes some whole some advioe. Harris then began in the same (train, ringing and praying, at times, for 86 minntee, denying his gnilt to tha last.
