Let it be grantor), fur tbe lake of argu

abandoned the cause of Secession as a
mode of redreaa against Federal wrongs,
on compulsion—that we abolished slave

that we did all tlieae tbinga at the point qf

tiona. Aud whenever »eyield, 1/our vira

This is just what wa would not have
the people of Georgia—with their past
untarnished honor, in all their humilia

been their losses and sacrifices—and
whatever they may bavo done on compub

«Uod. at the 14th AtMndment in the
election olaUnitedStateadbuntor. The
"Wh and R*te„ger dc-
notmoeathe suggestion as "foolish and
mischievous," aud refers to the oaae of
ex-Gorernor Vance, of North Carolina.
It is true Vanoe was refused bia seat after
he was elected, but in politics, as well aa
in religion, O10 blood of martyrs often,
in the end, proves the seed of tho Church.
Wo boast greatly of onr progress in civil
rights aud the (irivileges of our people in
thia day; and if we protest against the
usurpations of representatives against the
liberties of tho governed, we are pro
nounced by the devotees of kingly pre
rogative “lied Hot*" -nd “Bourbons.”—
The case of Vance and others shows tha'
we are still over a hundred years behind
our British ancestors, in the principles of
popular, representative government.
John Wilkes was ileeUsl to Parlia
ment from the county of Middlesex,
England, in 1708. He was expelled
four different times, and each time re
turned by bia oonatitnenta to Parliament
At last, the House of Commons declared
Wilkes' opponent, Col. Luttrail, elected,
though he had reoeived only 300 vote*,
on the ground that tbe votes for Wilkes
were void from incapacity to terre. This
measure, we are told by historians, awak
ened intense indignation throughout the
whole country. The contest betwcon
Wilkes and the ministry became a con
test for the preservation of the righta of
tbe people. Presents of jewelry, Ac.,
ware forced upon him, and, though iu
prison, tbe sum of £20,000 was raised to
pay hit debts. He was twice commanded
to attend at tbe bar of tbe House, but
refused to appear except in liis place aa
member for Muhltetex. He finally tri
umphed and succeeded iu 1782 in having
tbe rec >rds of his expulsion expunged,
and the House voted that the resolution,
passed February, 1700, by which be bad
iwen declared incapable, was “ tubeenire
qf the right* qf the uhole body if tbe Sec
tor* cf the Kingdom. ”
William Eanctt, Senator elect to the
Legislature of North Carolina from the
oounty ot Onslow, was expelled, after
trial and conviction, lor the forgery of a
certificate of election in 184 f. He was a
Democrat, anil although by his corrup
tion and that of bis Iriends, the
Whigs lost tha election of the officers of
the Senate, they, with the example of
Wilkes • before their eyes, were not
“foolish and mischievous” enough lo
displace Ennett uftcr his second return by
his electors.
Such wss British liberty one hundred
years ago, aud such was the rights of
the American people before tbe advent
of Radicalism. Every Htato is entitled
to two U. B. Senators, but Radicalism
has erected a standard of qualifications
unknown to tbe Constitution, which in-
oludee an ignornnt negro and excludes
the most intelligent white man; and it
is called "foolish and mischievous" to
presume to disturb such a standard. Are
we tbe descendants of John Wilkes and
John HampdcD, or ia Chatham's tan
nage our mother tongue ? Shall we bo
enounced as "Red Hots” and “Revolu
tionists” because we claim kinship, not
kiDgsbip, in blood and principle to those
who wrested Magna Cbnrta from tbe
meanest of English monarclis, and held
the bead of tho moat amiable idolt and
Slipping from the scaffold, rather than
wear the badges of slavery V Are the
prerogatives of Congress, (and even a
branch of it) already more omnipotent
tlian King John or Charlea the First ?
God forbid that wbat was confirmed by
Parliament of British liberty ona hun
dred years ago, and wrested centuries
before by tbe British sword, should to
day, in this boasted Republic, be stumped
by tho voice of ficemen, “foolish and
mischievous I”
From tlia Greensboro Ucrabl. 5 Oct., '71.
A Political Outlook.
A general survey of the rouuliy at
large—a careful observation of the great
huttlo-grouml of 1872, aud the forces,
weaiHius and issues which will euter in
to that stupendous aud fierce struggle
for free government, we confess, impo
ses us with unwonted solemnity. A* we
see tha two great parties which divide the
country selecting their tsittle-ground,
marshaling their foroea and furmiug their
line of conflict, we coufeas to some ner
vousness. At present there is oousidera
bio confusion among the rank and file of
both parties. This inspires us with a
little hope, that all is not yet lost, but
that, with bravo hearts aud solid ool
iimiis, the Democratic legions, iuspired
by n common sentiment and feeling, will!
in 1872, fall upon and put to flight the
Radical army. At preseut the ououiy
is predicting un easy victory, ow
ing to the dissensions which have
sprung up in onr political house
bold. But they should remember tbut
they are uot quite free from family
feuds and broils, and diquirtureti them
selves. That iu their ease, thcscam like
ly to increase under the astounding de
velopments ot Radical aliases and rob
beries, lwith in the State and Federal
Governments. Indmal, for the last few
weeks the signs are more auspicious of
Democratic unity. Is-ading journals all
over tho country, in the spirit of conces
sion and conciliation, find, upon a friend
ly interchange of views, that no impaas
able gulf dividoa them Unit what can
uot be unanimously admitted into na
tional platforms can he tritely pretermit-
ted by Constitutional men—tuid thus,
without yielding up a solitary vital prin
ciple or issue, as a great reformatory (Tar
ty, the Democracy, united, aud with its
old and lime-honored banner flying, will,
in 1872, march un to glorious victory.
We have heretofore said, and now re
iterate, that wo will aooept no platform
that gives a full or nuati indorsement,
either directly or indirectly, of tho re
construction frauds ou the Constitution
the iniquitous legislation under
them. If, however, the General Demo
cratic OonvenUon should see propertopre
termit any e.rpreuinn if opinion in leg,ini
lo their VALiumr, we should, though re
luctantly, acquiesce 'in its judgment.
Upon such a basis, it strikes us, the party
oould and should stand and battle as a
unit. If at present we are powerless to
undo conatilulitmally wliat Radicalism baa
unconttitutionally done; this is no reason
why we should abandon tha straggle,
much less why wo should accept ssjtnal,
what nos boon thus unconstitutionally
done. We cau still in the future resort
to all constitutional modes, until, sooner
late.’, theee unomtlilutuuial irrong*
shall he contHlulionally righted.
Having defined our poeition, it is the
dictate of a wise and statesmanlike puli-
2 r, to gather np and aasimilato all the
rments ’ of strength at command, and
turn them upon the common enemy, and
aide onr time and the aeqniaition of ade
quate power for the full and final reetora
tion of the Government to ile original
metre aad bounds.
results of the election show that turret*
crowned tbe efforts of the Democracy in
every district where men were nomina
ted regard!'-is ot test oath aud other dis
abilities, while in tbe two diatricte in
which so mnsli was add about test oaths
end other Radical scar,.- crows, disaster
fell upon the party.
Iu eronr Stuto election where the peo
ple have failed to maintain principle, and
Lave taken up the heresy of New Depar
ture, moderate Republicans and accept
the situation theories. Radicals hsve been
elected.
The Legislature of our State, which wss
certainly elected by tbe voice of the peo
ple, ia Democratic. How were theee
Legislators elected exoept by the united
“unique coalition” of the Democracy of
the State T The party in 1870 pronounc
ed the acta of Congress since the war, in
passing the lltli and 10th Amendments,
to be unconstitutional, null and void, aud
though the Democracy could not deny
that these amendments existed de facto,
they were regarded aa tyrannical and ille
gal, and tbe unanimous voice of the peo
ple wus, “elect men who will endeavor to
make these acta inoperative."
Fighting the issue thus boldly, the
party was successful Has tbe party
in the hour of victory thrown aside the
weapons which gave it power? Has
it deserted the principles which united
and formed the party ? Wbat signs
are there of tbe party’s disintegrating,
except the desertion of a few men -
politicians -a few papers, whose editors
would be politicians ? Tbe Contain-
iionaliti mistake* the people of Georgia
when it believes they are ready to accept
uot only the issues which have been de
cided by the war, but the frauds, usur
pations and tyrannies which have pinned
upon them tince the tear the Radical
party.
Even tbe milk aud water members ot
the party do not flloilly aud fully accept
the situation; but for policy agree
compromise themselves, and bide tor a
time these insults to froemcn tbut at some
future day, when stronger grown, they
may smite tbe smiter anil then cat from
the (wges of the Constitution the hide
ous excrcsences.
The true Democrats, and they ore in
the majority in thia State, will never
agree to play tbe hypocrite, adopt policy
or stultify tfiomsclves iu order that they
may get into power. True freemen
would rather sustain defeat, impriaou-
mment aud death, than sacrifice
their rights and liberties even for a mo
ment, and the majority of Georgians are
free men, and will never immolate princi
ple upon the altar of policy.
