“Tfce OatlooJk la Kentucky.”
yp||iil|iill, totifixy, an article in full,
taUBUKafette Louisville Courier-Journal
of the bth lnst, under the above caption.
This we do, as it is our purpose to
make some comments on it, which we
wish to submit to our readers generally,
and to the editors of the Courier-Journal
specially.
The article throughout is directed,
pointedly, at the Political Editor of Tut
StWj who la represented as holding ex
treme views of policy, which will prove
disastrous to the Democratic Party of
the United States if followed. New, in
all sober earnestness, we ask the Courier-
Journal, what are these extreme views?
What are “those exaggerated utterances of
Mr. Stephens" and “ the desperate reme
dies" referred to? What ia “Mr. Stephens’
prescription,” whieh the editors at that
paper consider “ the eery worst treatment
which Georgia could be subjected to,"
and which they are so “certain” the Dem
ocratic Party at large can only be injured
by? Let us understand each other. In
all that we do, and say on Publio affairs,
or on Pnblic questions, we are prompted
by no motive bnt the dictates of the
moat unalloyed patriotism, guided, as we
suppose, by the cloarost principles of rea
son and justice.
These questions involve issues and
results of momentous importance to
the present, as well as all future genera
tions on this Continent. They should
be discussed fairly, fully, and candidly.
The Courier-Journal profosscs to be will-
ing so to discuss them.
Wherein, then, we most respectfully
ask the editors of that paper, havo we
made any utterances inconsistent with
>!>»» Cl meets stated above, or with those
high objocts which should be the aim of
every faithful sentinel upon tlie watch-
tower, in all times of danger and peril?
If Georgia is groaning under the weight
“of taxation” “piled upon her” by the
rapacious robbers and plunderers who
ar# devouring her substanco—if she “is
hedged in by a wilderness of bayunets"
if she is “pressed to the earth by corruption
and persecution”—if “the very air” from
her seaboard to her mountains is “ thick
with tho malaria of misgovernmout,”
what, iu the mune of candor, truth and
fair dealing, has Mr. Stephens “uttered”
in tho midst of these misfortunes, bnt o
distinct announcement of tho foots as they
exist, and an earnest appeal to the people
to rise in their majesty and rectify these
iniquitous wrongs at the]hMs? lias hsever
advocated any other remedy? Most assur
edly he has not
Then, art* we to understand that the Cou-
rier-Joumal holds it to be u“desjnrate rem
edy" to call upon the people to rally to the
jtolls as the only sure hojie of correcting
the abuses of misgovernment ? What
does our cotemporary moan by “desjwrate
remeily?" We repeat, let us understand
each other. Wo are in pursuit of truth
iu all those discussions—we wish no eva
sion. The Publio Liberties of this
country are in danger. This we thor
oughly fJel with the profoundost cmo.
lions; but if there is anything “morbid in
oar temper,” in looking upon tho threat
ening prospect, wo are hot awaro of it
We feel that while life lasts wo can suf
fer the greater threatening ills—if come
they shall—wiA as much composure us
wo have suffered, and do suffer those now
upon us, and with quito as much equa
nimity of temper asany other of the mil
lions of the viotims of Power, who may
be crushed under the wheels of Empire.
But we fed it to be a duty we owe to our
fellow dtixens everywhere, to warn them
of the ooming danger, jaud to counsel
them os to the only way in which, in our
judgment, so sad a catastrophe ns the en
tire overthrow of free Institutions iu this
country can be averted 1
Is there anything 1 'morbid' in this?
Was there anything “morii'if in the tern
per of Paul, when he urged with eorncst-
neee that tho only hope of aafety for the
crew, waa not to "Deport” from the
(hip ?
We repeat, again and again, our request
that the Courier-Journal shall state what
ia the “desperate remedy" that we recom
mend, which will injure either the people
of Georgia or the Democratic party at
large?
Have we asked them to do anything, or
recommended them to do anything,except
to proclaim the great truth, as we have
done, and srtha Co urier-Journal lias done,
that Georgia and ten other sister States,
“art hedged in by bayonets,” “proceed
to the earth by corruptions nod persecu
tions," and that “the very air” through
out their antira limits “is thick with the
malaria of mis-government?" It this on
“exaggerated ntteranoe?" oris the “utter
ance” any more “exaggerated” when made
byWItan when made ty the Gmrier-
Journtd.
Wilt the “utterance" of theeo great
aa-exaggseated truths injure the Democ
racy in any State ? Ia this what oar co-
tempomyof Louisville, Kentucky, means
to be understood as maintaining ? If so,
bow ? Let rm have the argument, with
the facta and reasons opon which it is
founded. We profess to be guided by
reason, and no “morbidity” of temper. —
The Oourier-Journed admits the imminent
danger at eoatiag Empire—bnt says, by
way of argument, aa we understand it:
“The effect to avert it most be made in
“the North—not in the South; and,
“when reason cannot bo appeased, the
‘South is asked to yield, at least, its pre
judices."
Now, why should not the effort be made
in the South as well as the North ? The
time haa been, it is tone, when the South
ern States could do nothing. They were
then prostrate under the heel of Despo
tism—denied all voice and all representa
tion in the Government. This is not so
now. Though they still be “hedged in
by bayonota," yet their people are now
permitted, after a manner, at least, to go
to the piolls and there express their o ten free
will, without the mandate that if they do
not rote as the usurpers require, the re
sult will be set aside. Their action is
not now the bare registering of Dynastio
Edicts for their own degradation.
As, therefore, they are now once more
politically on foot, why should they re
main longer inactive ? Are the Peoples
of the Southern States, ia the condition
described by the Courier-Journal, less in
terested in the questions involved, than
the Peoples of the Northern States? Are
the Democrats in the'.Soutli leas interest
ed in them than the Democrats in the
North ? Sorely not. Then why should
they not co-operate, and actively co-ope
rate, with the friends of Constitutional
Liberty in all the States, in a common
stonggie for the rescuo and preservation
of their common heritage of free Institu
tions ? What reason can bo given for
their taking no part in tho “effort to
avert” the “ooming Empire ?”
We do not know the grounds upon
whiob the Courier-Journal excluder them;
neither do we know what is really meant
by the Courier-Journal in the use of these
»ds:
"Where reason cannot bo appeased, the Booth la
ted to yield, at least. Its prejudices."
What prcjudicct of tho Booth, and to
whoso anking aro they to he yielded? Is
it here really meant to characterize the
groat truths of tho wrongs which have
been inflicted upon tho Pooples of the
Southern States aa nothing bat prejudices?
It it farther meant by these words, to af
firm that these bare “prejudice*” must be
yielded to the demands of the “Departure
Democracy** of the conntry, which “can
not be appeased by reason?" Is this the
course recommended by the Courier-
Journal to tho Democracy of tho South
(and of the North as well), to pursue with
a view to save themselves from mis-
government, and usurpations? Is this
the moaning,? Ia this tho healing
“treatment” tho Courier-Journal ad
vises for tlie Democracy at this timo?—
Are the Peoples of the Southern States,
and the unfaltering Democracy of all the
States, required to abnegate reason, deny
the truth, abjure right, outrage justice,
and declare thut all tho most infamous
wrongs and iniquitous acts of tho Dynasty
now in Power, aro nothing but measures
adopted “in the manner and by the authori
ty constitutionally appointed?" Are they to
do all this, (and thus, in fact, rivet tlie
chains of Despotism upon themselves and
their posterity forever,) at tho demands
of a Faction which “cannot be appeased by
reason" with the foolish hope of thus
saving their liberties by committing them
to such bauds? Is this the “coarse”
the “treatment”—tho “remedy” or “pre
scription”—of the Courier-Journal? If so,
wo say to our contemporary that we,
dirulually, will never bo guilty of an act
so marked by personal stupidity and base
ness as we consider tlio acceptance of this
treatment would bo; nor do we beliove
that tho Democracy of tho Union will
ever subject themselves to tho degrada
tion of such “treatment;” for no Pooples
will over commit such an act of treachery
to Libtrty, who do not deservo to be
slaves; and slaves of tho least pitiable
character—slaves made so by their own
voluntary net.
We speak plainly our own sentiments,
without wishing to be considered us in
tentionally offering any personal offense
to anybody who may differ with us.—
These art great Public questions, involv
ing the characters of wholo Peoples, as
well as their liberties. Wo only state the
conclusions to which our reason leads
us, and determines our owu conduct.
Guided by this, we take pleasure in say
ing, that we And one thing in the article
of tho Courier-Journal, which we fully
indorse, and that is this:
"In politics, m in war, no good fighting can be
done unless wo face the enemy. No ariuy wae over
known to win a battle with it* back turned to
the enemy; aud it must bo remembered that
aide alone doca not pick tho grouud."
This is exactly the counsel wo gave tlie
Democracy of Georgia in their great civic
struggle last year. Borne iu Georgia then,
as in Kentucky siuco, wished to turn
their backs to tho enemy by “departing”
from tlie “ground picked" by the De
mocracy from the days of Jefferson, in
all contests with Power. Our advice was
to “face the enemy." “No army was over
known to win a battle with its bock turned
to the enemy.” In, pursuance of the
advice, the old Jeffersonian banner
was hoisted. There wai uo lowering of
the flag or departure from principle. The
reeult was a brilliant victory. Both
Houses of the Legislature were rescued
from Radical rule. This is tlie preseut
condition to which Georgia is subjected
under tho “Stephens prescription,” which
the Courier-Journal seems to think so
badly of.
It vm nothing but tho peaceful, iaw-
abiding mode of urging tho pooplo to go
to the polls as freemen, and there condemn
usurpations, corruptions and all acta of
miagovenunent by their rotes, by turn
ing out of office bad men, and putting
good ones in their places, without any
aooepUmcs or indorsement, as “finalities"
or “verities" of any of the iniquitous acts
of the Rump Congress, known as the “Re
construction Measures." Wherein was
it either nnwise or inexpedient ? Wherein
has any misohief come of it? What
evils” hove been " increased by it ?"
Why doos tho Courier-Journal com
plain of it ?
In this connection we take occasion to
sflf that the account given in the Courier-
Journal, in another article, which we
have just seen, of the part taken by the
Hon. Linton Stephens in that canvass, is
exceedingly erroneous. Tho State Plat
form, which was the old Jeffersonian
creed, with its time-honored flag
unlove rod, was hoisted, as is well
known, with his hearty concurrence,
to say tho least of it Bat it moicovor
received tho unanimous vote of
the Convention. It was under
this standard, with a dauntless fac
ing of the enemy in their fancied
strongholds, by the Democracy, that the
victory was won. It is true that in some
localities, the too timid, under telegraph
ed advice of Mr. Samuel Randall, did
lower the flag; bat in such places, gener
ally, they were beaten. Nothing is truer
than what Linton Stephens himself
said of the result after the election was
over, which was that the flag hoist
ed by the Convention had been “least
tattered and turn wherever it was borne bold
est and held highest in the conflict"
But whut we wish to impress upon
the minds of the cditois of the Courier-
Journal, and all inquirers after truth, is
the great fact that Georgia was carried
lost year by j/eacefiuUy but firmly facing
the enemy at the polls, upon tho “picked”
Democratic “ground” of Jeffersonian
principles.
California and Connecticut were so
carried two years ago. Indiana was so
carried at her last election. New Hamp
shire was so carried this year; and Ken
tucky lias been so carried in her
late most triumphant viudic&tion of
tho right, over all the power
ami influence of the Courier-Journal
against tho policy of the Democratic
leaders of that State. Has not every
Democratic victory, achieved in this
country from 1800 to tlie preseut day,
been won by “facing the enemy ?” Is
the “New Departure” movement, so
strongly urged by tho Courier-Journal,
anything but “turning the back" of the
Democratic army “to the enemy"? Is it
anything but a retreat from the “picked
ground" of the Constitution, on which all
its victories in the past have been gained?
Under tho blast of this “Key note,
was not Conneeticnt lost lust spring?
Was not the District of Columbia lost in
the same way ? Has not tlie Democracy
of California just been utterly routed
under tlie fatal blast of tlie same “Key
note”? How it will bo iu tlie other
States, where it lias beeu sounded, a few
months will disclose.
But how any man, U]>on any rational
principles, with even a common knowl
edge of human nature, could expect any
thing but defeat upon such a programme
we cannot see. The Courier-Journal may
rely upon it, that “no good fighting” can
be done either in polities or war “unless
we face the enemy." If Mr. Morton and
his Dynasty are to be displaced from
Power, they must bo met and faced iu
assaults upon tlieir highest crimes against
the liberties of the country,a nd not their
smaller offenses, tlie Enforcement Acts,
Ktt Klux bill, and tho like. These aie
bnt corollaries of tho others.
Long as this article is, wo enuuot dis
miss the subject without & few words
upon the statement that “it is believed”
that the Blnir-Broadliciul programme
beat the Democracy in 18G8.
We have again and again shown that
no such belief could bo rationally enter
tained by nny one who understands the
facts of the cose. But suppose it bo true,
is the Democracy to abandon tho cause
of Liberty, because they lost ono elec
tion m endeavoring to maintain it?—
How often did the people of Middlesex,
uuder tho advice of Chatham, rally un
dauntedly to the polls in vindication of
popular rights, against the gross usurpa
tion of the House of Commons; and how
much more glorious was their ultimate
victory, when, by tlieir unfultcriug devo
tion to tho Constitution of tlieir country,
they saw tho Tory administration finally
driven from Power!
Have tho People of tho United States
less cause to be fervent, constant and un
ceasing iu tlie maintenance of tlie prin
ciples of tlieir Qovcrnmaut, than were
their Brithli ancestors ?
Wo believe that tho Democracy were
actuated by much higher motives than
tho bare possession of office or its emol
uments in 18C8; and we trust that they
will prove themselves still to be s
1872. At least, all of our advice, coun
sel, treatment, proscription, and reme
dies for tho political evils of tho day,
are based upqji this assumption.
It is with tlieso views, wo deeply sym
patliisc with the gallant masses, whose late
efforts have been sacrificed by tho tmpoti-
cy of their leaders in California; and
rejoice with those of Kentucky, who
have gained so great honors to them
selves in the signal scrvico they have
rendered the country iu their late elec
tion.
It seems, however, that the Courier-
Journal has quite as little regard for our
gratification at their achievement, as for
our association in the commou struggle—
almost ns little as any Radical sheet—
This, it is true, is not a matter of much
oonceru to us.
But, the oditors of that paper, if they
be really iu earnest, in wishing proper
“efforts” to be made to “avert” the dan
ger of threatening Centralism and Em
pire, may, perhaps, think better of us
when they know more of us; and
when they see the workings of their
“treatment,” compared with ours, they
may, perhaps, also, appreciate both a
little more highly than they now do.

The Outlook In Kentucky.
Every man’s opinions aro Effected more
or less by his circumstances and his sur
roundings, and the exaggerated ntteran
ces of Mr. Stephens may be attributed to
tire wretched plight to which much msl
administration has reduced tho State of
Georgia. Desperate evils seem to require
deeperate remedies. Often the remedy,
thus desperately chosen and desperately
applied, only increases the evil; and rare
ly does it modify or avert it In oar
2 union, Mr. Stephens’ prescription is
0 very worst treatment whiob Georgia
could be subjected to, and wo are quite
certain that the Democratic party at
large can only bo injured by it
Assuredly in Kentucky, whore our con
ditions differ from those that prevail in
Georgia, we have everything to loee and
nothing to gain by falling into Mr. Ste
phens’ morbid temper. Kentucky is
sound and well, strong and hearty, cheer
ful and robust, and she cannot afford to
follow the lead of Georgia. We need no
doctors, and least of all Mr. Stephens and
Mr. Toombs. To mate with them is like
a well man going to bed with a sick man;
like an athlete deliberately undertaking
the regimen of a consumptive. Counsel
from Mr. Stephens, delivered from amid
tho misfortunes to which Radicalism has
brought Georgia, reminds one of a survey
taken from a deep-sunken hollow shut
out from the world by hills and trees and
made dark and dismal by fogs. Tlie
Radicals have piled mountains of taxation
upon Georgia. They have hedged Geor
gia in by wilderness of bayonets. They
have preseed Oeorgia into the earth by
corruption and persecution. The very
air of Georgia is thick with the malaria
of misgovernment. Yet Mr. Stephens,
depressed by these circumstances, under
takes to sketch the political situation and
to trace out the campaign for the Nation
al Democracy with nil the clearness of a
man who stands upon an eminence over
looking the wholo country and for above
the heating and misleading influences of
tho plain below.
All of ns—tho very best und soundest
of us—con but sec the future as we may,
doing only whut we can. That there is
danger no man doubts. Where tho dan
ger lies wo arc tolerably Bnre. The
effort to avert it mast be made in the
North, not in tho South, und, where rea
son can not be appeased, the South is
asked to yield at least its prejudices.
It is believed by the most intelligent
snd well informed Democrats that tho
Ulair-Broadhead programme of 18Ct) beat
us. All of us believed in it and fought
for it at the timo, and it lost. It not
only lost, but all of that which it pro
posed to resist was carried over our heads
and has gone into effort We could not
make the same fight over again if we
wanted to. We could ns easily fight
over tho battle of Manassas. We could
os easily turn book the course of time
itself.
In politics, as in war, no good fight
ing cun be done unless we face the enemy.
No army was ever known to win a battle
with its back turned to the enemy ; and
it mast bo remembered that one Bide
alone does not pick the gronnd. Both
sides have a hand in that, each striving
to pick the gronnd that seems best suited
to its purposes. Six months ago Mr.
Morton, of Indiana, undertook, and with
great adroitness, to fix the ground for
tho Democrats, and he laid down a very
pretty plat. It embraced every one of
tho positions since taken up by Mr.
Stephens and Mr. Toombs and rejected
by Mr. Vallandigham, Mr. Pendleton,
Mr. Groesbeck, Mr. John Quincy Adams,
Judge Black, of Pennsylvania, Judge
Doolittle, of Wisconain, and numberless
Democratic conventions and Democratic
newspapers. These latter object, as we
do, to having the Radicul leader fix our
plan of aoiion; and wo object to taking
Mr. Stephens and Mr. Toombs, with ull
their troubles upon them, aa safe
guides.
Kentucky, in particular, cannot afford
to follow them. Kentucky is nothing if
she be not national; she is nothing if she
be not a bell-tower for all States. Some
of her politicians Lave gone a little astray.
But there is every sign that a hopeful and
healthful augury could wish to see that
they will come round all right before the
assembling of onr next State Convention.
That body will not declare against the
amendments, or do nny folly of which
the party elsewhere can complain. Even
tho local press, which has hitherto been
most ybdnrate, ia allowing a practical nnd
willing spirit of acquiescence in tho “New
Departure," alias the moving np of the
Democratic masses in front of tho enemy.
A few hot-headed and intemperate per
sons may hold out merely for tho fun of
abusing tho Courier-Juuriuil, but even
tlieso will “come to cubly,” when they
find that we ask nothing but wliat is duo
a most candid nnd disinterested effort to
do our best by the State, the party, and
all the poople.
Of this class wo can say, as old Sam
Houstou once said to his cnomics in Tex
as, “If I havo done yon wrong you have
hod your revenge; nnd if you have done
me wrong, God knows I forgive yon.”
We have several months ahead of ua in
which to discuss the questions that divide
tho Democratic people. Those questions
havo been distinctly stated in tlieso col
umns. It is all-important that they bo
disposed of qow and forever. Hence we
shall discuss them as wo have discussed
them, abating nono of onr freedom or in
dependence, and confident that events,
no leas than the popular reason and com
mon sense, w ill bear out tho wisdom and
integrity of our courso. That being
maintained, wc have no quarrel remaining
with any Democrat, be he a captain or be
he a private soldier, be be a Bourbon or
a progressive, and if there is any factious
spirit displayed anywhere, it will no
couo from our side of tho house.
Tho people understand very well the
difference between upright and fearless
criticism, which spares neither men nor
measures, and that sort of factiousness
which would rale or ruin, whioh would
have its way or raiso a disturbance. The
people appreciate also the need of an or
gan. iinbought by any clique and unsup
ported by any subsidy, which is able and
ready to keep watch and guard over tlieir
representatives. The politicians arc al
ways disposed to separate into cliques and
need to be brought into constant pres
ence of a candid and impartial inspection.
As far aa the leaden aud measures of our
own party are ooncemed, they shall be
treated with impartiality and candor, and
if they mistake this for captiousness, the
fault will be tlieir own, not ours, for we
have only the publio interest to serve and
advance, and havo no motive for being
either prejudiced or partial.
So much for the harmony whieh some
of our friends in the local press are ask
ing us not to disturb by quarrels which
we hare never engaged in and never
dreamed of.
