DislYniii-liiseinrut. ^
The >Inrrh number of llie^VWMl
American Jlerieu. contain* the dl.<-
mission of tlic question: “Ought the
negro to be disfranchised ? Ought he
hare. Iieen enfrancl' i*pd ?” The
mbject Is ably discussed by Senator*
Blainoand Lamar, and Messrs. Hamp
ton. Garfield, Stephens. Wendell
Phillips. Montgomery Blair and Hen
dricks, with the conclusion i>v Mr.
Blaine. This latter is the lending
plrit In the discussion. His argu
ments are'stated rftfihlv and logical
ly. hut their fallacies are i-lcarlv ex*
posed, and their strength utterly an
nihilated by Mr. Lamar's answer,
which is a notable instance of careful
investigation and truthftil statement
offsets, as well as a most powerful
argument.
Mr. Blaiqe admits that the question
of disfranchisement is practically a
dead issue. It is [impossible, as lie
admits, for the ITnited.States, or tin*
State, to deprive the uegro of the
franchise on accouut of color, race or
previous condition, and tho improb
ability of any Southern State disfran
chising him by the requirement of
any property, educational or other
qualification, is so great as to amount
practically, to an impossibility.—
Therefore, this drat question is nec
essarily answered in .the negative.—
Whatever reasous may uow be urged
either against or In favor of the se
cond question, (and Mr. Blaine an
swers it in the affirmative) it is also
a dead issue. For, whether the en
franchisement of the uegro was right
or wrong, expedient or unwise, it U
now useless to discuss. It is past, and
irrevocable- What then, is the per
tinency of the discussion ? The fact
is, the Republicans are tired of their
bargain. They gave the negro the
ballot when they knew he was
too ignorant to use it* privi
lege, and too vicious to respect its
power, and they thought that through
the influence of their crafty and un
scrupulous ageuts, tliis power might
be turned to the great advantage of
the Republican party. The history
of Radical rule in the South tell*
how the negro vote enabled it to raise
itself to almost despotic |iower. mid
glut it* avarice and ambition w ith
the spoilt of an oppressed aud help
less people. But now that this infa
mous reign is ended, and tiie negro
vote is no longer a tool in the hand*
ot the Republican party, they are an
gry and dissatisfied, and arc begin
ning to inquire into the wisdom and
expediency of negro suffrage. Mr.
Blaine clearly intimates it as his opin
ion that “negro suffrage has failed to
attain the ends hoped for, when the
franchise was conferred,» * * failed to
achieve any thing except to increase
the political weight and influence of
those against whom, and in spite of
whom, his enfranchisement was
conferred,” What intense disap
pointment and chagrin in this asser
tion. But why has negro suffrage
“failed to attain the ends hoped for,”
that is, to keep the Badieals in power
at the Sooth? Candid, thoughtful
men believe it is because the negro is
beginning to eee that it is to his in
terest to vote with the white people
of the South; to know that he is hap
pier and more prosperous undor a
Democratic government than when
hie state was in the hands of Repub
licans, to realise the fact that bis in
terest and the common good are best
secured by unity of action, sympathy
and purpose with the whites of tho
South who encourage his industry,
help and sustain his enterprise, and
protect him in tbs enjoyment of bis
rights. Such men—and those have
carefuUy and dispassionately studied
the political status of the negro—con
clude that his* eniranchisement has
“felled to attain the ends hoped for”
because the negro has grown wise
enough to perceive that tba “ends
hoped for” by the Republicans, are
not the ends best adapted to his wel
fare and success. But Mr. Blaiue
nays not so. He raises the old, old
cry of ‘'Intimidation,” “Force,
“Fraud,” “Violence,” etc. But what
is to be done in the matter? The ne
gro has been enfranchised, and cau-
notbe disfranchised. But he must
bring about the “ends hoped for” in
some way or another. Does Mr.
Blaine hint at the method to accom
plish this in bis conclusions? lie
says: “Those who erected the Confed
erate Government may be in exclu
sive possession of power throughout
the South, but they are not so fairly
and legally, and they will not be per
mitted to continue in the enjoyment
of political power unjustly seized,
and seized in derogation and in defi
ance of the rights not merely of the
negro, but of Hie white* in all other
sections of the country. *
I wish to speak for the millions of all
political parties, and in their names to
declare that tho Republic must lie
strung enough, and shall be strong
enough, to protect the weakest of its
citizens in all their rights.'
What doe* this mean ? What can
it mean but that Mr. Blahie will at
tempt to again subject the South to
bayonet rule? The “bloody shirt
snd “troop* for the South” pro
gramme is Mr. Blaine's bid for the
Presidency, and he will use it with
his utmost power and intensest party-
malignity and misrepresentation. We
think that he will find thnt his poli
cy is not the true one. The North
has grown wiser as well as more
charitable, and will fail to sympathize
with the movement Blaine will try to
inaugurate. In the meantime the ne
gro will continue in his march to pro
gress and wealth, winning for him
self the admiration aud support of
bis Southern friends who will see
him protected in the full and free en
joyment of all his rights.
John Chinaman was discussed at
length in Congress last week, and the
probability is thnt he will be invited
to stay at home. The western border
states are determined to stop the curse
brought upon, them by the terrible
influx ot China’s refugsss.
Dangerous. Favors.
Party passion seems to lie the rul
ing element in National affairs at this
time. There was a period in the his
tory of this government when repre
sentatives weic selected by tho masses
for administering public affairs with
an eye to practical good. How its
nil a'strnggle^f»ir"pnrtyj|Bupreniacy.
This fact is peculiarly illustrated in
the case of the Senate upon appro
priations, subsidies, etc. lost week
a bill passed the Senate practically,
establishing the Hew Orleans ami
Brazilian Steamship Mail Line. The
subsidy was created through the in-
fluenee mainly of Messrs. Blaine,
Conkling and the Camerons—men
whose late hatred and bitter animos
ity towards the South was so notice
able. Stalwart Democrats fought
against such an expenditure of pub
lic lunds, although it was purely a
Southern enterprise; and they pro
fess to be co-workers for the advance
ment of Southern progress. These
very Democratic Senators, with the
assistance of Southern Senators, had
aided in enriching from the public
coffers, the water-ways of the Nor
thern and Middle States, beautifying
cities, etc.
The animus of these public leaders
is too plain to admit of doubt. Re
publicanism, in its transfiguratod
form, is fishing for Southern support
The South has become a most impor
tant factor In moving National ma
chinery, and as her strength goes, so
goes the Natiou. The cunningness
of Blaine, Cameron & Co. fain would
pour out milk and honey at the feet
of a recuperating people, and thus
eutrap the unwary in the struggle of
1880.
Democratic leaders, on the other
hand, seem to doubt the policy of
bestowing patronage upon the South
for fear they may incur the displeas
ure of their embittered constituency,
who perhaps too greatly and unnec
essarily fear cx-rcbcl power. Tims
has been temporarily lost the South
ern Pacific Railroad project, which
must yet be finally acted upon.
The discussion of the Chinese ques
tion is another striking’ illustration
of the truth of this charge. The I’a-
ilic States are clamorous for a shut
ting off of Chinese immigration.—
They care not at what cost this end
is accomplished. Senators and rep
resentatives of both parties rush to
their assistance and cater to their
whims by casting their votes regard
less ot the provisions of the Constitu
tion. And for what ? Party supreni'
acy! They want the votes of the
Western States in the struggle of
1880. Nothing more. Party zeal
lias drowned all respect for the Con
stitution.
What a sad commentary is this up
on “the best government the world
ever taw”! Will this generation, or
the one just rising, ever enjoy the
happy influence of patriotic leaders,
who stand above sectional animosi
ties, partizan hatred, ambitious yearn
ings and personal ambition ? Or,
it thns always to be: a struggle be-'
tween error on the ono side and er
ror on the other?
Potter Points.
The Potter Investigation Committee
is still working away. It is now
engaged in reviewing the testimony
taken concerning the late Prcsidcn
tial elections in Louisiana and Flori
da, and to preparing the report which
they hope to have ready by Satur
day. The report will be short, con
sisting chiefly of reviews of the in
vestigation and the conclusion that
the evidence taken clearly shows that
Florida and Louisiana cast their vote
for Tilden. No reopening of the
question of the validity of Hayes’ ti
tle will be recommended, as it is con
sidered that the Hurtridge and Bur-
chard resolution of last session final
ly settled that question in the nega
tive.
The committee intend to report a
resolution, which they will endeavor
to have put on Its passage, citing that
Florida and Louisiana went for Til-
den. The Republicans of the com
mittee will make a minority report
taking opposite views pf the result of
the investigation.

PBKSIOENTIAL ELECTION IN 1880.
The contest for the Presidency in
1880, have been initiated. Both par
ties are clearing their decks for ac
tion. The Republicans used the
Freedman’s Bureau and the United
States army to influence elections, un
til the entire couutry demanded, iu
the interest of a free and fair election,
that the one should be abolished and
the other restricted to military ser
vice only. They have fallen back up
on the U. S. Marshals and supervi
sors of elections to accomplish the
same result. The Democrats have re
solved to repeal the juror test oath
and the Federal election In ws, so fsr
as the employment of supervisorsand
United States Marshals are concern
ed. To do this tlic repealing clauses
are tacked on to the Executive, Judi
cial and Legislative Appropriation
Bill now pending. The Democrat
insist that these obnoxious laws shall
be repealed, or the appropriation bi I
shall fail. Tho appropriation bill
1877 will supply the administration
with money till June 30tli, 1870, an I
if the Bill now pending fails, the Pres
ident, Judges, Congressmen and aM
civil officers, will receive no part of
their salaries. A similar clause was
lacked on the Armv Appropriate
Bill of 1876. The bill failed. The
soldiers suffered ail the inconvenience.
They were innocent sufferers. Now
it is proposed to let all the civil offi
cers suffer from the President down
The Republicans have announced
tbeir firm intention through Garfield
and Hale that tlicv will defeat this
legislation by all the parliamentary
tactics they can command, They are
willing to permit the repcnl of the
Test Oath law, and it may bo that this
is all the Democrats can get this ses
sion. Both parties are, however, or
their mettle, and the result will do-
pend much on their power of endn-
rance. The House will not vote the
estimate* of the Department of Jus
tice. It is under this “Bnrenu” tba'
so much money is wasted In the em
ploy of supervisors aud United State*
Deputy Marshals. This Bureau, du
ring the last election, consumed over
$200,000 to advance the interest of tlic
Republican party.
The Republicans should not com
plain of the Democrats for tacking
these repealing clauses to an appro
priation bill. When in power, they
never failed to do so. In fact, the
Federal election law was itself passed
by tacking its provisions to an appro<
priation law. The best lawyers here
say this law, providing for the ap
pointment of supervisors, is unconsti
tutional and void.
THE CENSUS BILLS.
Party preparations extend also
to taking of the census. Rep
resen tnlivo and electoral votes
are apportioned among the sev
eral States according to population
The next census will produce some
wonderful changes. Large States at
the last enumeration will lose repre
sentatives and electors, and small
States will gain largely. The Repub
licans are afraid Democratic enume
ration will incren.se Democratic pop
ulations and decrease Republican
ones; and Democrats entertain of
their political enemies the same fear.
There is mutual distrust. The House
Bill gives the appointment of enume
rators to the several Governors of the
States. Tho Senate Bill gives tlicir
appointment to the Secretary of the
Interior.
The contest for a nomination fur
tho Presidency by the Republicans
bids fair to be fierce. The light be
tween Hayes and Conkling as to the
New York Custom House appoint
ments, is tbs first net. The triumph
of Hayes is John Sherman’s first vic
tory over Grant The claimants for
the leadership will be Sherman and
Grant, and if (he latter is nominated
we will have a healthy fight on our
hands—added to Grant’s audneity.—
The party will use every appliance of
law and expedient, and perhaps force,
if necessary, to secure the prize. Tlic
South will not only havo to be solid
as a rock, but we must ngain carry
New York to insure success. Now
York is just as necessary for iis a* a
solid South. With that State wo may
succeed—without it impossible! Who
can carry New York ? Whoever can
do so is the man for the South. Sam
uel J. Tilden can do it again, imt
others may be found who can do so ns
well. We will wait.

• Four Tear* Enough.
Columbus Enquirer. 1
The Agricultural Convention has
decided to hold the next Fair in Ma
con. Wo are glad of It. Got. Col-
S uitt was among those who made ad-
resses. Is he really electioneering
for the Governorship? If he is,'he
may as well count Muscogoe against
him. Four years is enough of one
man. We want a man who can say
“no” to fricud as well as foe.
An unjust assault. Gov. Colqnitt
is a member of the Agricultural So
ciety, its ex-President, a planter, and
had as much right to a seal on that
floor, aud a voice in the deliberations
ns any man there. What a great pi
ty it is that there are not more offices
to fill, that the thirst of the howling
sectionixts could bepaliated. If Got.
Colquitt has not uttered “no” to
friends no man ever did.
As far, then, as the southern states
are concerned, it is safe to say that
Mr. Tilden is not, by any means, the
most popular candidate for the pres
idency who could be presented In
1880; since he is, to a great degree,
regarded here as having timidly
abandoned us to the radicals in 1876.
If tliis idea is hereafter removed bya
better knowledge of the facts as they,
existed, the sense of justice to him aa
one cheated of his office by fraud,
bribery, and a traitorous conspiracy,
and then as one who had been basely
maligned and villifled by bis political
enemies as the impersonation of de
mocracy, must tell in his favor. And
if the national democracy, in conven
tion assembled, believe that these lat
ter reasons for his nomination out
weigh all others, then the south will
accord him once more an undivided
support.”
