The Philadelphia Republicans are
thoroughly disgusted over the fact
that un immense number of negroes
In that city voted the Democratic ticket
at the late election. As long as the
negroe votes the Republican ticket
the organs compliment him on his
“superior civilization,’’Inti we observe
that the Philadelphia llullctin calls
him a “debused man” since he went
bock on his Republican masters. The
American negro is very rapidly learn
ing that it Is only as a voting-machine
that he is esteemed by the Republican
party.
The New York Tritium publishes
an interview with a Congressman,
Ellis H. Roberts, of Utica, in which
he replies to the charges made by
Senator Coukling. He declares that
he did not support the Democratic
ticket, and that the (’onkling candi
date for State Senator in the Oneida
district was beaten because Mr. Conk-
ling had exhibited indilt'crciioc as to
local politics since 1S74. Mr. Roberts
said that lie hud given Mr. Coukling
cordial supjsirt in ids early career,
but after the quarrel with Blaine he
failed to do so, Is-cmise he could not
share the Senator’s hatred of Blaine.
His prineijial nlVense was,he thought,
that he Itelieved Blaine a stranger
candidate for President in 1876 than
Coukling.
Under the title of the Electoral
Fraud, Judge Black’s reply to Stough
ton,is published in the New York Sun,
of last Sunday. The article is too
long for re-production in our columns,
but we will endeavor to give some
Idea of it. Judge Bluck wrote a re
view of the Electoral Commission in
his most forcible and trenchant style.
Stoughton, since rewarded with the
Russiainlssion,replicd.Itis said he did
soat the request of the Administration.
Judge Black rejoins with the strong
est argument and the keenest invec
tive. It must be admitted that
Stoughton invited all he received,and
he has licen hotly flayed. Stoughton
must think that the credentials of a
Minister Plenipotentiary and Envoy
Extraordinary were dearly bought
and that he had better have rested liis
claims to a foreign mission on his
services ns a visiting statesman to
New Orleans and a pleader before the
Electoral Commission. Judge Black
seems to have dip)>ed his pen in cun-
stie, for every word is a stinger to the
ofllee-seeker. He distinctly charges
what Is now accepted as a fact
that Mr. Hayes won liis title
by the perversion of the votes of
Louisiana and Florida, and the per
petrators of this fraud were the Re
turning Bonrdsund the visiting states
men, oneofwhom was Stoughton,Min
ister to Russiu, another the Minister
to France and another a Senator of
the United States enjoying the confi
dence of the President, and another
the Secretary of the Treasury—all
have been handsomely rewarded for
their zeal and diligence in perfecting
the conspiracy. He ranks the pon
derous Stoughton among tile least
guilty of thecrowd on aecountof men
tal imbecility, and he is openly ac
cused of violating the ninth com
mandment. Judge Black regards the
Electoral Commission as a political
and not a judicial body, whose acts
are liable to eriteism, and its reputa
tion for integrity is left as Bacon left
liis, “to foreign countries, to future
ages nndtomen’sehnritahlespeeehcs.”
The following will give an idea of
the bitterness of the terms employed
in regard to the Commission. He
styles it “The Electoral Fraud,” and
some of the expressions which repeat
themselves again and again through
its columns are: “The Great Fraud;”
“Cheated out of the President;”
“Worst malefactors of the age;” “The
nation will not submit to another
such outrage;” “Crime of the greatest
magnitude;” “Cheek of solid brass;”
“The ultimate object of this crime
gives It a general aspect revolting in
the last degree; but its features, when
seen in detail, are hideous beyond ex
pression;” “Your demurrer is a pre
posterous sham.”
This to Mr. Stoughton: “Such a
law you declare to be constitutional
and valid! There is not a half-
grown boy in the country of
average understanding that
does not know hotter.” And again:
“I venture to say that this quotation
is in some way false, and I incline to
believe that you did not write this
part of the article which passes for
yours. Some smart carpet-bagger put
it together and gave it to you, to tri-
how much he could make you dis
grace yourself for his amusement or
liis malice, and you put your name to
it without knowing whether it was
right or wrong. This relieves you
from tlie imputation of deliberate
falsehood ; but why, oh ! why were
you silly enough to become the cat's-
paw of such a michlevous monkey ? *
* * I conic now to your abuse of the
Buchanan Administration. It is
as ditllcult to analyze as the
scolding of a fish-woman. But
otit of your reckless and lialf-crazy
circumlocution, &c., &c. * * *
Nor would I advise you to cease your
virtupemtion of the dead President.
His memory is intensely bated by
many powerful persons to whom his
dignified and virtuous life was a con
stant reproach. To slander him is
the surest way to curry favor with
them, and they can assist you to get a
foreign mission, or some other office
for which you are equally unlit.
Lose no opportunity, therefore, of
being Huporservioeuhle. Take every
occasion to load up as much
dirt as your little cart can carry,
and, however far it takes you
out of your way, drive around and
dump it on the grave of Buchanan
It will not disturb his repose, and no
doubt it will increase your chances of
promotion very much.” “You have
wilfully broken tile ninth command
ment.” “I put the eases merely to
bring the principle down to the level
of your understanding.” “In like
manner 1 take your diatribe upon
Mr. Tllden and the New York De
mocracy. I know nothing of the
matters you refer to; but 1 do not be
lieve a word you say. Remembering
your monstrous falsehoods aliout Mr.
Buchanan; seeing the large, loose,
and lavish mendacity of your charges
against myself, and applying the
maxim, falstts in uno, falsus
in omnibus, 1 can only regaVd
your abuse of Mr. Tllden as
strong proof that he is a just, up-
right and honorable gentleman. Thus
you furnish me with a cheap and
easy mode of praising him. The
chosen chief of ttie nation swindled
of his right does not want any enlogy
from me. * * « Certainly no
reasonable man can ever believe that
without authority much better than
yours. But most probably you had
no meaning at all. It is mere
drivel, and only furnishes another
proof that when your masters at

I’RO VISIONAL GOVERNOR JOHNSON
TO PRESIDENT JOHNSON.
Columbus, Ga., Feb. 1806.
Hi* Excellency, Andrew Johnson,
President United States: Sir—Mr.
Hill and myself were badly beaten
for the Senate, the principal reason
therefor being that we were Union
men nnd did not participate in the
prosecution of the war. This feeling
enters into all elections, and has gen
erally a controlling influence on the
results. Union men receive no coun
tenance from the dominant party,
and they would stigmatise them if
they could. At the time the Legisla
ture took the recess, Mr. Hill and
myself could and would have lieen
each elected, hut lieing relieved they
come to the conclusion that they
could, with safety, visit upon us their
indignation. I was after all the leni
ty shown, particularly obnoxious,
because I have advocated and pressed
the measures of the Administration.
The poison of asps is under
their tongues, nnd they lie in
wait for revenge. The Union
men gpd negroes can expect as
at prefllW no protection except that
given njptho Government. In my
opinion the Freedinen’s Bureau can
not. with propriety, be dispensed
with, and a certain number of troops
•will lie necessary to protect and assist
the others in the discharge of thefr
duties. I should have dropped you a
line at un earlier day, but I deemed it
best to delay a little for the purpose
of taking a calm survey, and my de
liberate conclusion now is looking to
the efforts made by yourself, that no
clemency or kindness can ever recon
cile a certain class of persons to the
Government of the United States. In
this I may be wrong, and I hope that
I may be[ hut can not now see It.
I shall always feel under many and
great obligations to you, nnd if I have
failed in aught it was of ignorance
and inability. T expect to be in
Washington in a few weeks and will
communicate in detail if desirable.
Yours, J. Johnson.

Judge Black gives as a reason for
answering the review, is, that if he

answerable.
Stoughton had I letter see that this
document never reaches the Czar, or
lie may threw him back on the
United States.
Milledgeville, Jan,, 31st, 1800,
His Excellency Andrew Johnson:
Dear Hir—On yesterday the Legisla
ture of this State elected Hon. A. H.
Stephens and Hon. H. V. Johnson
Senators. Fearing that these elec
tions may be misunderstood by you,
I have felt it my duty to the people of
this State nnd to you to write you,
and I wish to say in advance that the
policy of electing both these gentle
men to the exclusion of both Mr.
Joshua Hill nnd Provisional Govern
or Johnson did not meet my upprovul.
I was the advocate of the election of
at least one of tlie gentlemen last
named. I did not ndvoeate this be
cause I believed they were better men
than those elected,or because I believ
ed they would, if elected labor
more fiiithfully to sustain your
policy and sup- jsirt your
Administration, . hut because I
believe they would be more accepta
ble to the Senate and the Northern
people. I still think this may be so.
1 am satisfied, however, that tlie
Legislature were influenced in
making the elections by no disloyal
motives. They claimed that neither
Mr. Hill nor Governor James John
son were representative men. That
each, by words and acts, lmd pro
claimed that he had no sympathy
with his own people in the struggle,
and as the whole people had, with re
markable unanimity, enguged in the
struggle, and hud, since it terminated
with almost as greut unanimity, ac
quiesced in your terms of policy in
good faith ; that some who, however,
reluctantly had gone into it, and had
now, with the people, returned to
their allegiance better represented the
people of the Stute, and that a strong
stand tuken liy them in support of
tlie Administration would give to the
people of the North better evidence of
the true feelings of our people than
could be had from a lifetime of policy
on the part of some who did
not Hyni]>athise with the people in the
cause during the war, and could not
therefore be regarded as representa
tive men. Again, it was urged that
both Mr. Stephens and Governor H,
V. Johnson are men of the first talent
of the State; that they were both
Douglas men, and both prominent as
such; that they were both Union
men, and both voted ugainst seces
sion ; that, while they both held high
(Kisltions neither took a very active
jiart in the war; that they were both
men of national character, and
were believed to have tlie re-
8|x i et und sympathy of a large
imrtion of the people of the North,
These and other like reasons, in my
opinion, satisfied their own minds
that their action as members of the
General Assembly in electing their
favorites could not bo justly con
strued Into disloyalty, or a wish or a
willingness to embarrass you, or thwart
the measures of your administration.
Whether they have erred in this re
spect 1 am not able to say; if so, I
shall deeply regret it, as will no doubt
the gentlemen elected by them, nei
ther of whom were candidates fertile
\Hisitiojis to which they have been
chosen. 1 know they are both open,
active, zealous supporters of your
Administration,und if they should lie
admitted Into Congress they will sup
port it with all their j lower. The
peoplo of this Stute may, on account
of the complete revolution in our
whole system, be at times a little
slow in realizing the exact state of
ufliiirs, but 1 think 1 represent them
truly when I say they are loyal to the
Government, and that you have a
universal popularity in the State. I
inclose herewith the correspondence
between the committee and Mr. Ste
phens on tlie subject of the election.
With gratitude and greut respect, I
am very truly, etc.,
Joseph E. Brown.
P. 8.—I have thought it my duty,
especially as l did not concur in the
whole action of the General Assem
bly, to make this statement that the
motives which 1 think influence
them may be liefore you, with the
reason, which may lie urged why the
people of the Slate should not be set
down as disloyal on account of this
action of their representatives, even
if it should lie held at Washington to
have lieen an error in judgment on
their part. J. E. B.
HON. A. H. STEPHENS TO PRESIDENT
JOHNSON.
Ur aw ford VI lle, Ga., Feb. I860.
His Excellency Andrew Johnson,
President of the United Slates, IVash-
ington, I). C. : Mr. President—I
telegraphed you a few days ago from
Milledgeville touching my election to
the United States Senate, and the em
barrassments to me attending it. I
now avail myself-of the earliest op-
IMirtunity since my return home to
make the fuller explanation by mail
which I stated in the telegram I
would- make. What prompted
that telegram and this communication
was declarations amounting to threats
that I understood had been made,
which, if executed nnd not explained
or replied to, I felt would do great in
justice to the action und motives of
tlie members of the Legislature ns
well ns myself. Whether these de
clarations of purpose have been car
ried out or not I do not know. They
were to the effect that, representations
should lie made ut Washington ; that
the people of Georgia, notwithstand
ing their professions were and are not
true to the policy of the Administra
tion for the restoration of the Union,
and a failure to elect Hon. Joshua
Hill and Hon. Jamas Johnson to the
Senate wns because they had been
loyal to the Union throughout the
late lamentable conflict of amis. Del
icacy might forbidmetosay anything
on tne subject, but as great public
interests are at stake, I feel it to
be a duty to sjieuk. So far
as I wan individually concerned,
my position will be seen in the en
closed correspondence. While I was
doing all I could, and had done more,
I think, than any man in Georgia
since my return to bring tlie popular
mind to a correct appreciation of the
condition of public affairs, and what
was to lie done under existing circum
stances, I did not wish any public
position. Apart from my strong aver
sion never again to hold office, I felt
great personal embarrassments in
yielding to (lie Wishes of tlie Legisla
ture to accept a Senatorship. J was
and am at large on parole. I felt
under very great obligations to you
for this—(Alligations that I would and
can never disregard—and t did not
wisli to bo put in any position that
would or might embarrass you, or
tend to embarrass you, on that sub
ject. Hence my note of tlie 22d of
January. Never were lines penned
witli moresinccrity than these were. I
thought that they would settle the
matter so far as I was concerned. I
left completely relieved from all fur
ther connection of my name witli
that office. And it was not until
after I was informed that a large ma
jority of the Legislature was determ
ined to elect me nnyhow, that the
second note in answer to a direct
question wns written. So much for
myself. And now in vindication of
the motives of the nieinlicrs of the
Legislature, I repeat what was stated
in the telegram. My full conviction
is that their action sprang from an
earnest desire, whether founded in
error or not, to most effectively aid
the Administration policy. This was
their object in the choice of their
Senators. They did not think that
tlie candidates before them would be
so available or efficient for these ends
as the men they selected. 1 shall
forbear to give what I believe
to be their reasons for this
preference. I mean simply to
affirm more positively tlmt 1
um thoroughly satisfied that, they were
not such as have been stated.' This
explanation I have deemed it proper
to make to you in vindication of the
Legislature and myself—in case such
throats iih I heard of should be car
ried out. And now in conclusion, I

can only repeat what I said before
my release. I have no desire for any
office in the world. I have no per
sonal aspirations whatever. It would
lie vastly more agreeable lo me to
live the balunce of my days in per
fect retirement. Still I could not re
fuse on tlie call of tlie people to serve
them, if such he their will, to tlie
best of my ability, even at a personal
sacrifice on such au occasion as tills,
if I shall lie permitted to do so. Sit
uated as I am, of course I can do
nothing in the discharge of tlie duty
now assigned me unless my parole
shall be enlarged and 1 shall
permitted at least to go to
Washington and cortfer with
you further on tlie subject. I ilo
not wish, ami I do not intend,
to do anything that will lie embar
rassing to you in your policy for a
restoration of the Union. ' If you
think that my presence in Washing
ton will not only do no good in this
instance, but might, in the least de
gree embarrass you, I do not ask the
enlargement of the parole. But if,
on tlie contrary, you may be of opin
ion that it would do no harm and
might possibly do some good, then 1
respectfully ask it. Individually I
think that a personal conference with
you and others at Washington would
do no harm and might do some good.
Still I may be mistaken in this, and
submit tlie whole matter to your bet
ter judgment. If you think proper
to enlarge my parole so far as to grant
me permission to go to Washington 1
should be glad to be informed of it in
such way as you may think best.
Yours, most respectfully,
Alexander H. Stephens.
Secretary Evarts being asked
wlmt he thought of Senator Conk-
ling’s position ns developed in the
Herald's report to-day, remarked:
“This Administration has before i(
three tilings which It means to ac
complish. First, to nationalize tlie
Republican party; second, to resume
specie payment; third, to emanci
pate the action of the voters from the
control of the office holders.
“I believe that tlie people botli
need and want these things to be
done, and we shall welcome the help
of all who will help. Mr. Coukling
chooses to oppose. I can only say 1
am sorry. Helms had a great'oppor
tunity, for he might have made him
self a leader in the Senate in the great
work; he might have taken a proud
licnt part in carrying out these hon
est policies. He appears, In liis Her
ald s interview, to declare liis oppo-
sition to them. It seems to men
pity on ids account, but I believe
these public services will lie per
formed without his aid and in spite
of ids ill will.”

Charles Thorpe was born thirty-four
years ago. His father left him $50,000
