If the genuine lie publiconiam of the country would save itself and the system which R cherishes, it will hasten to form into line and try to break np the oligarchy that is faBteniug itself upon the General Government. There is, if husbauded with care and baiidled with efficiency, a popular ma jority against the President's one may party; and there is at this moment no element iu any part of the Union which nan be said to be unwilling to sacrifice its predictions to obtain tbe end desired— that is, tbe defeat of Grant. How, whether Gen. Grant “be a Re publican" or not, or whether the Courier Jpsst<A is a correct Jwdge, and nan, apeak by authority of what constitutes a sound Republican on hit, is not for os to say. That is a question not beforo us at present Bnt we join our contemporary of Kentucky heartily In saying that Gen ‘•Grant moat bo beaten," if possible. We wtll, moreover, add, ihnt Iu os* judg ment, be must be beaten, if possible, be- oansa bo is bent upon carrying ont Radi os! principles, whether he be a Republi can or not . ^ What the Radical principles are, the country well understands. It there had been nuy doubt anywhere upon that sub ject, Mr. Mortoa, the month-piece of the party, has lately spoken in terms too plainly to let that doubt linger any Eton the Hew York World now admits that Mr. Morton is looking to the estab lishment of Imperialism. This is what we lure said all the timo. The only live issue- absorbing issue in the next Freer dsntial campaign, will be between Coneli tutionolism and Imperialism. A. B. 8. The Iliirdems Imposed by Radi calism. Everybody "knows, that at the clu.e of tbe war, the Southern States were com paratively free from debt Before the war, the States owed but little. Their Gor.ruui.Miu, had been administered from time iaiwuiurial, with mendhUe economy, ai d burdensome, oppressive debts end high tales were unknown. Oar State tax in Georgia, wr believe, had never been higher than one- tenth of one per oent, or ono dollar on every thousand. During the war, the States had oon- iraoted sub. debts, and noma, perhape moat of them, issued currency bills for circulation; but the General Government required them to repudiate all theee ob ligations, because they were contracted in aid of the Confederate cause, and this requirement wss imperatively en forced, so that at tho close of the war, the Southern Slates were no more in debt than tVv Ifere Word Be war be gan If our oich people oould have continued to ooutrol onr State and municipal Gov ernments, we would now have b on very nearly iu as good couditiou, as far as State indebtedness Is concerned, as be fore the war. They would not have gone iuto extravagancies. Thsy would uot have formed swindling rings to plunder us, but would have pursueddlie same sys tem of economy which had previously marked our history as a people aiM State. But, Uen.Grant,and tho plundering crew who ooutrol him and his policy, undertook to restore the State t.. tbe Union in a way to suit their osm botiona; and two ii^vax are prominent iu the policy of 1st To put all the money in their poaketnwinch they ana ax tract from an «n>rMasd and helpless people—no matter by' what means 1 3d. To destroy Constitutional, pepro- tentative Government on ibis Continent; deprive the people everywhere of all local Self-Government, and establish a consolidated Despotism—an Empire and a Dynasty—in ita stead. ■v swarm ol hymns, oarmoreate aaJ ■ tfoojied ail flocked down upon , and were protected in their plunder- i and thefts by Gen. Grant and his M bonemy or correct conduct the Legislature of South Carolina bad fifty members in it who oould neither read nor write—the whole body being composed of only eighty members. This Legislature lyaa eon trolled by men who oasne'into the State With no other intent than to plunder it Tbe debt of the State before the war was about six millions. How it is from fifteen thirty millions—no ono can tell exactly what. Tho debt of Georgia about six millions; now, it is oer tainly more than three time# that Amount, and no one can tell tbe extent of her lia bilities. Florida owed n hslf million, ind now her debt is some fifteen mil lions. We might goThrongh with all the States, bnt this is enough. About ana hundred millions of debt has been saddled upon tbe South, and our property for all time to dome [mortgaged to pay it, and we have nothing to show for it. Benjamin Conley has been a conspicu ous member of tbe party, and tho elan that boa performed thia work in Georgia, and be seems to want to keep that clan in position by foul meaus, if uot by fair; by forcible, violent aud lawless meustires, if nwt quietly acquiesced in by tbn peo- plegend the Sere Era is backing np bis claims, and favoring bis designs.

DESPOILED SOUTH CARO LINA. Wo ask the special attention of Judge Conley and the Nen> Era, to the follow ing from the New York TVibnne, It will bo soen that the nausea of Carpet rule is ao groat that the Radical Tribune is, at last, compelled to rpew the thing out of its mouth. We expect that paper to do tho same thing in relation to what it says and bus said about tho Ku-klux in the SouUi. Tho Ku-klux Hiatt, as a Demo cratic political organization, has no exis tence in tlie South, aud there is ss much lawlessness by men taking tho law in their own hands in the North ns in the South. We invite the attention of readers generally, as well as Conley and tbe AVa, to the frank admissions mode by this great chief of the Radical party: Fyotn tha New York Tribune, SSth Nov.. 1871. It is through no fault ol the Tribune that the people have not been sufficiently warned that carpet-baggers and the Ku- klux are destroying the South, so far os terrorism and misrule can ruiu that sec tion of tho Republic. Wo havo been constant in plain exposition of the two evils which nIdiot many of the lately re bellious States; and truitworthy special correspondents have furnished the Tri bune the only impartial and lucid oo- couuts published of tbe financial malad ministration and partisan violence which have disgraced several of the reconstruc ted States. In this labor we have had the hearty, if partial, co-operation of the Democratic newspapers, which have ea gerly copied and made much of the evi dence showing the shocking financial condition of these States, but bare been suddenly silent when oar correspondent’s researches brought to light the barbari ties and atrooities of the Ku-klux. No party can oflford to pursue this policy; and it is not creditable to tho fairness or the sagadty of the Democrats, North and Honth, that they have steadily re fUM-d to look on one aide of tlie truthful nctnro presented, while the other has *en persistently aud trinmphsutly held np to pabiio view. The Democrat ic journals have been swift to denounce carpet-baggers; bnt have stopped there. Nevertheless, there has been a great shaking among the thieves and murder ers. This is a time for inquisition for blood and thefts; and if there are men anywhere holding power anywhere for the purpose of stealing, or sheltering robbers and violent men, they may take warning; the day of reckoning is aft hand. id elscv here, and on yesterday gave the publio th butry picture of th*; retail u» of carpet-bag role in Sooth Carolina. What a shameful exhibit it is ! By joggling with figures and roanipulat ng artfully contrived tables, a riug of adventurers kept tho people of South Carolina as completely in the dork alwut the finances of the Stute an though their fa’se returns had been printed in Sanscrit. They prophesied smooth things while tbe ship whs drifting into the whirlpool of bank ruptcy. They lied about the condition of the Treasuiy regularly and at fixed in tervals with all the system of proctioed mountebanks. Bonds were printed In New York by the ream and sold in Wall street for wbat they would fetch. A so-called State agent, a stxeet broker, handled millions of theee bonds, without giving a shadow of respon sible security for the integrity of his dealings- Toe Governor, Treasurer, and Comptroller-General vied with each other in fabricating statements intended fer the public eye, while the real facts and figures in tho desperate case were kept in the secrecy of their own offioea. There seemed to bo no such thing as sounding bottom in the wild stream which rushed out of thg State Treasury. An Investi gating Committee, appointed by the frightened Legislature, came trp to New York to look into the fluencies of the State, which hod no apparent existence outside of Wall stag*; Md these gentle men turned their tMriftfto ft holiday trip and relaxed the stem justice ol their in tent into a wild junketing at an op-town hotel But the end has oome at lost The fabric of falsehood has collapsed; the E blie credit is moribund. The people ve been deceived as long as possible, and, after such statements as a seven mil lion debt in 1870, aud nine and * half millions in September, 1871, we grasp the astounding foot on the 20th Novem ber, 1871, Sooth Carolina owed tbe enor mous sum of $16,806, 908. Here is « State made financially bankrupt by mere speculators in polities. What puaish- ment shall overtake the plunderers who, within a very few days, have been white washing each other ? Certain it is that their guilt is os clearly determined os that of onr own muuicipal banditti, whoso audacity so much resembles theirs. We ore heartily lack ol the sentimental attempts of “party managers” to oover up tho corruption, dishonesty and extrav agance oi the carpet-bag governments. Tho plea that exposure of these frauds will iniure the Republican party, is as wicked os it is silly. Better, a tnousund times, that tho party bo rent asunder than thnt any orime for which it can be justly held responsible, be covered up in ita own house. No party can long live with such a cancer concealed iu ita bosom. Bet the purty is not responsi ble for the criminal dishonesty of a few officials who bear its name; though it would be justly held to strict account if it shquld be accessory to any attempt at concealment of tho offenses to which we have called attention. We are glad that it is too late to screen the rascalities which have been perpetrated in the Car olino8. We havo fully exposed and de nounced these cunning thefts, and leave the issue with the courts and the publio, more than ever convinced that this is specially a time for letting in the light into dark places, and wringing rogues everywhere to righteous punishment ~ Uligceliatuono. uFiiaXiiT ek isiG, i«i is not utcr, eligible to saidoffioc. .

R. W. Piullepb, Chairman. The Case of Mr. Surgent of Coweta. The seat of Hon. II. J. Sargent, in the Houso of Representatives, tested by John D. Sims. The caso was referred to the Committee on Eloctiona, who, through the chairmau, Hon. R. W. Phillips, roported that Mr. S. was ineli gible, under tho 14th Amendment to tho Constitution of the United States. Mr. Sargent admits that he was Jus tice of tho Poace in 1845, and that he was a Captain the Mexican war—in both oases taking an oath to support the Con stitution of tho United States. During the war he, though at first op posed to secession, gave sid and comfort to the Confederate cause, and was actual ly in service with the State militia, when Gov. Brown called it out, and served for a short time. Upon these facts, admitted and proven, the Committee report that in their opin ion, Mr. Sargent was not eligible to or eapsble of holding any office, civil or military, in tho United States. They add: The foregoing are all the leading facts developed by the testimony, from which your Committee are of the opinion that the said Harrison J. Sargent having pre viously token on oath as an officer of the United States, and as a Judicial officer of the State of Georgia, to support the Con stitution of the United States, did give aid, comfort, help, support, succor, assis tance, encouragement and countenance to the enemies of the said United States, in tho luto war between them and the United States; and that the said Harrison J. Sargent was not at the time of his said election, nor is he now eligible to or ca llable of holding any office, civil or mili tary, under tlw United States, or under any State. See 3d Section, 14th Article of the Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Your Committee aro also of tho opin ion, and suppose there can be no doubt on that subject, that the position of a Representative iu the General Assembly of Georgia is an office. First—Because it is included in the definition of tho word officers, aud mem bers of the Legislature ore expressly classified as officers in 2d Bonnier^ La v Dictionary, pages 243, 244. Second.—Because the Constitution of the State declares that persons convicted of larceny or felony, holders of public money unaccounted for, duelists and their aiders and abettors, persons convicted of treason, embezzlement of public funds, malfeasance in office, bribery and crimes puuished by imprisonment iu the poui- tentiary, cannot hold office in this State. See Constitution of Georgia, Article 2d, Sections 3, 4, 5 aud 6. If the position of a member of the Legislature be not au office, none of the classes of persons men tioned would be ineligible, and traitors, duelists, felons, bribers, idiots aud insane penmus oould all be mem tiers of the Leg lsUture. but c» .ld'rot bold office. Third.—Because the loustitation des ignates the position of t late Senator us au office, and that of K *preeentative is tho some in principle, fc- e Constitution of Georgia, Article 3J, Section 1st, Para graph 2. Fourth. - Because iu tha Code of Geor gia, in the Article from Sec. 120 to 128, which speaks of the eligibility, qualifica tions and commissions of ofltoers, mid vacation of offices, members of the Leg islature arc classified as officers. Fifth.—Because the Code of Georgia exp ready calls the oath of a member of the Legislature his oath of office. [See Code of Georgia, Bee. 170.] Your Committee, for the reasons be fore assigned, are very clear in their opin ion that the position of a member of the TO EMIGRANTS.
