Fbidai Momma, Mat 81, 1872. ladcici of Popalar Uplnlaa. Our redden are requested not to fail to give close and special attention to two articles from tfao Savannah Neu-t, repro duced in our present issue. Why, we earnestly ask, should not all true Democrats, at this time, rather take advantage of the split in the Radical party,] than pursue that line of policy wbioh must neoessarily lead to quite sa great, if not a greater split, in their own Party? Are any, calling themselves Democrats, induced so to do, for the resson, or with the object, assigned by Oovernor Dennison, of Ohio, whioh is in plain worda, that though they bs defeated by linking their fortunes to Mr. Greeley in this contest, they will nevertheless tlicreby be committed to a Radical Plat form of principles, under which they can come into power in US77; and by this manoeuvre transform themselves into a Radical Party, under a Democratic name ? That this is the real object of all Departure Democrats, we bsve but little doubt. But to the honest masses everywhere, North as well as South, we say, beware of the tricks snd wiles by whioh the at tempt is now being made, thus to trans fer you; thus to destroy the Party and •xtermiate the principles of Thomss Jef ferson. If the Democracy are to be defeated, at Oovernor Dennison seems to think they are moat likely to be with the Qreeley coalition, would 11 not be infinite ly more honorable, and infinitely more hopeful for the future, that they should be defeated under their own unloworcd burner, and in the unyielding mainte nance of their own principles ? If Grant should bo re-elected the Demooracy, North and South, will bo no worse off tlian they are now. In Geor gia it will be the same. lu their present oondition they have rescued the State from Carpet-bag Rule and Carpet-bag Usurpations, liy tbe same wise and firm course pursued iu the past, if adherod to in tbe future, the pri sent status may be maintained. Could it possibly lie bettrred by tbe election of Mr. Greeley ? Would it not be very greatly worse ? for would not our people be oommitted to bis Platform, whioh tandiont ss rightful, all those sets of usurpation from whioh we have so grievously suffered ? Will they not be trammeled and “handi-capped” by the affirmance that the General Government is clothed with rightful power to enforoe Mr. Sumnor'a Civil Rights Rill when it pleases them to do it, even at the snapen aion of tire writ of Itabeat Corpus, and the filling of jails and dungeons with Prisoners, as is now dons in South Carolina under tko Ku-Klux Act ? Is any ono green enough, not to sec that all these outrages are justified by Mr. Greeley's idea of local Self-Govern ment, “SPBJsrr” to the control ot the Central Dynastio Head ? Woigh well, and oonsider well, that 3.1 sentence of Iris Prouunoiamonto, we say to every Democrat, before you bind yourself to the maintenance of tko principles cov ered up iu it. This part of his plstform covers every outrago committed iu the ten Southern States sineo the war for the Union was ovor, and against no ono of whioh has Mr. Greeley, in this Platform, or in any other way, ever raised his voioc, so fsr as we are aware or believe. A. H. S. .'Anylhlag lo BcsIOrSMt." If we wish to secure Grant’s election, we esu most oertainly effeot this by get- ting enough Democrats pledged to the support of Greeley to make it impossible for a straight out Democratic candidate toauooeed. This is the grand aim of the enemy—to secure this objeot before the meeting of the Baltimore Conven tion, and thus demoralise the Party so that no nomination will be made. This is what is aimed at. Shall we play into the hands of the enemy—etep into his trap which he has so skillfully laid— walk deliberately into the jaws of de airuotion? Remember, the great mam of the Par ty oaouot be driven to the support of a Radical on a Radical Platform of Princi ples. The Democratic masses act on, and will adhere to their time-hmiored principles; but euough may be iledru off from each e straightforward oowae to rain oar chances of success. Whan this is done, the object of tlio enemy is ac complished. We aaroeelly appeal to those who think it best (or Democrats to support Graslsy, under either tbs present, or my possible future airanmslsnoee, to oonsider the fa tal oensrqnenecs which will be sure lo follow, il their advice i. takeu. Tbe Democrats of tba Uiitou cannot be Weoeferred to tbe Radical eauip or lo tlie support of a Radical on Radical principles. The proposition need only be stated to be condemned. If you want Grant elected, get enough Demo crats note to pledge thimselrea to sup port Greeley so that it will be impossible for s straight Democrat to be elected Kjf It matters but little who may be nominated for President by the Baltimore Convention. Neither the Party gener ally nor any of its meml lers are pressing any man iiarticulurly. If the l'arty can be united and move in solid phalanx to the support of a sound Democrat, upon a sound Democratic Platform, it matters but little who that mau is ; ho can be triumphantly elected. But the Party cannot be united by having acute of its memltera urge us to vote for Greeley—to accept him upon his Radical Platform—and thus stultify ourselves and put to Bbame tbe life-loDg principles of Democracy. This is the way to disintegrate, demoralize, distract and divide the Party. The way to rally the Party in its strength is to rally to the support of s sound Party man, upon its own sound Party Platform. tttdr Party unity can be inaintaiued only by adhering unflinchingly to Party Principles. Pull Tarty strength can be brought out in no other way; and Party success in impossible upon any other line. Success on any other line is not Party snceeas; and if a Party, as a Party is not successful, its Principles arc de feated! Let those Democrats who desire success—who are tired ot defeat, and are willing to support Greeley or any other Radical on a Radical Platform, for the sake of success, rememoer that it is defeat / —defeat, not only of the Party, but its principles. When the Party and its principles are thus defeated; alien the Party thus pur sues s suicidal course, either success or defeat, on such a lino of policy, is the doom of tbo Parly. Friends, remember that the death of the Party is what its enemies desire, and whattraitotB in its ranks are working for. If we wish to preserve Liberty, wo must preserve the Democratic Party and its Principles. If we disgrace ourselves be- foro the world; if wo ignore or set at naught our own Principles; if we change front; if we do anything inconsistent with our record, principles, or history, we but inflict the wound that brings our own death, OaiS Some Democrats are pleading for the support of Greeley by the Party, and are blaming those who oppose suoli a suicidal policy with creating dissensions, splitting up and weakening the party I And they cry out vehemently and lustily, and charge those who wish to be consist ent and true to principle, with being mar plots, disorganizes, illiberal, proscrip tive, arrogant, eonooited. etc. Conclusive* A writer in tho Constitution, signing liimself “Voter,” snys Virginia, Tennes see and Missouri are “throo of tho most reliable Democratic States in the Union,” and clinches this assertion by declaring they will give Greeley an overwhelming majority ! That do settle it. ^4-4 [From the Savannah News, May 28th, 1872.) Hu vannah Morning Kiw» »nit Oiirxi l tbat may be placed In nomination ? of all to <li*cn*ii with candor and fames# the ques tions of the hour, that tho people's represent in Convention iuay be fully euligUtened u 1 Iiiun At stake, we hold that there is a paranim lenience due to hie party bj every one who claims initiation with lb From the alindpoint of present oipedloncy, snd the sid retrospect of pest experience, we believe thit even partia' success with tbo roodorite Republicans is preferable to defeit snd the continuation of Uon- ersl Grant's term of office. Oar recotuinemillions of Mr. Oreeley's present attitude.not his jxul record, are basotl upon i comparison between the fieo can didates. But in pn sen ting our views we do not as sert them as imperative dogmas, or claim that they shall override the assembled wisdom of the party in convention. Nor does our proposed support of Mr. Greeley partake of tho character of individual prefer- rue*. The enthusiasm in behalf of Hancock, or any other Simon pure Democrat, would proceed from higher motives, and more genuine admiration. The candidate of the Moderate Republicans as coutra distinguished from Grant, iu consideration of his kuown integrity* and certain features of the plstform upon which he stands, is worthy of South ern support, in the sbseuce of oar ability to do brtter. This Is tho aura sud substance of the position tskeu by this Journal. Now we would respectfully ask our contemporary if Mr. Oreoloy, despite his "llfo long hostility to th< South, his extreme Radicalism and antl-Democratic principles,” (using Ids own language,) should be squarely endorsed at Baltimore, will tho Horning .Xnct support ldiu, or will it sail in the wake of Mr. ••A. If. and with him exclaim, “so, NKVtaJ” In other words, does tho editor iutend to remain a Democrat if he is outvoted by his party lu conven tion ?—Jfaco* Trltgrnpk. We are not awaro that tho Courier- Journal lias elmmcterizol the Monday AW * aa “tbe coho auil mouth-piece of Mr. Stephens." If it has, it Laa done 11a injustice. While wo feel honored by bciug classed in our political oourso with that distinguished, able and uncompro mising champion of Con8titntional prin ciples, wa yet deny that the Morning Asips has ever been the echo ot his opin ions, if by that is meant that wo have shaped om- course in aooordanoe with hia lead, irrespective of ourown houestcon victions of right. The Morning Neat was among the first Demoeratio papers in tko South to oppose the so-called "New Departure," ami long before Mr. Ste- J ihena' connection with TniScx, and be- ora his opinions on thst subject were known, had distinctly defined its posi tion in reference to the proposed aban donment of Democratic principles Since then the Newt lias steadily op posed “paasiveism” and all other schemes of truckling expediency; snd on the morning on whioh its telegrapbio col umns announced tbe nomination of Hor- soe Greeley at Cincinnati, it distinctly declared against bis endorsement by the Demooracy, and in favor of the nomina tion of Democratic candidates by the Baltimore Convention. If there has been a coincidence in onr political course and that of Mr. Stephens, it only proves that like him we have keen steadfast aud consistent in onr devotion to prin ciple. The editor* of the 7Telegraph declare that after all their worm commendation ot Mr. Greeley and bis many virtues (ig noring, it U true, "hisjaaf record,") after laboring so aealously to oonvinoe the Southern Democracy of the impolicy and utter hopeluaauiua uf pulling a Democrat iu nomination fur the Prvaldcucy, they could and would “strike atrong aud cun- ■tantly for any other candidate that might be placed ill nunilnslloui" be- oauac, sav they, “wa arc true Democrats, •ml loyal |wrty men"—beeauao "we bold that there is a paramount allegiance due to his party by every one who claims affiliation with it” This sort ol’ party fealty may admit of the political flllibas- teriog no frequently indulged in by oar friends ot tbe Telegraph, but it does not harmonize with our views of consistency or doty. The difference between nsand otu con temporaries of tbe Telegraph is, thst while they bold that “paramount allegi ance is ilue to party," we consider that as a conductor of a Democratic journal our paramount allegiance is due to prin- cijilet, to our convictions of right and justice. We know no party without prin ciples. and we favor no time-serving pol icy regardless of principles. When we do so, we shall feel that we deserve to lose the confidence and respect of true meu of all parties. We do not feel that we can to-day ooouael tbe abandonment of Democratic principles and rally onr peo ple to tbe support of n life-long political enemy, who possesses not one principle or sentiment in common with ns, end to morrow “strike strong and constant blows ” in support of his political anti pode. If wa did so, we should expect onr blows to fall with little efiect The Telegraph't justification of its support ot Mr. Greeley on the ground ot comparison between him and Grant would not be without some plausibility if tho clioioe was really confined to them, though it would be still an open question which of the two is best entitled to tbe support of Southern Democrats. For our part wo see uo choice between hawk and buzzard. We can recognize no claims of "the representative man of the Bepnbliean party'’ upon the oonfidenoe and support of tLfc Southern Democracy, which the executive man of the Repnb- iican party does not possess in an equal degree. If forbearance and favor are expected in return for onr votes—if Radical ma lignity is to be disarmed by joining tbe Radical party, we can see no reason why we shonld prefer the mere faction led by Greeley to the main body led by Grant. If success is tbe paramount objeot—aud in a mere personal oonflict it is all-im portant to be on the winning side—that would be better assured by joiniDg Grant’s “big battalions,” than by uniting our fortnnea with Greeley’s corporal’s guard. The issue in tbe former case would be assured, while iu the latter it would be doubtful And then there are no benefits, personal or general, that we might expect for a Radical administra tion under Greeley, that we might not with equal confidence expect fromGrant. But the attempt of the Telegraph to justify its support ot Mr. Greeley in ad vance of tbe action of tbe Baltimore Con vention, in consideration ot “his known integrity and in tbe absence ot onr abil ity ito do better,” is simply a begging of tbe question. The position taken by the Telegraph, that the Democracy must ac cept Greeley, ”t(ie representative man of the Republican Party,” because they “can do no better,” is a false, delusive and dangerous p< lition. It is an unjus tifiable assumption, the only pretense for which is the oourae pursued by a few politicians and presses like the Telegraph; whose precipitate acceptance of the Cin- cinnatti bait, and whose clamorous dis paragement of the Demoeratio strength not only embolden our opponents, but embarrass, discourage and distract onr party. There is no reason why we “can not do better,” why we Bhoold not puts Demoeratio statesman in nomination, who would command the support not only of the entire Demooiooy of the Union, but of the true friends of constitutional gov ernment of all parties and all seotions. By such a nomination only can Grant be defeated. The Democratic masses North and South cannot be rallied to the sup port of Air, Greeloy. We venture the assertion that ten Democrats in Georgia will refuse to east their votes for Mr. Greeley for every Radical who will de- sert Grant to vole fur Greeley. So throughout the Union. With sncli a standard-bcaror as Gen. Hancock, of Pennsylvania, the Demo cratic party can poll a larger vote b' hundreds of thousands than it can will Greeley; and more true men from the Radical ranks will unite with them iu tbe support of tho Demoeratio soldier of the Constitutional Uuion, than in tho sup port of the fanatio amateur wood-chop per of Chappaqua. The Telegraph seems anxious to know whether if “Greeley, tbe representative man ot the Republican party,” is in dorsed by tbe Baltimore Convention, we will support him, or, with Mr. Stephens, exclaim, "no, never I”—whether, if we are out-voted by onr party in the Balti more Convention, we intend to remain a Democrat. Wo have not the remotest idea that the Demoeratio Convention at Baltimore will commit tho extremo folly of indorsing tho Cincinnati nominations, which would not only insure the re-elec tion of Grant, bnt also the division and utter destruction of the Demoeratio party. Bnt we do not hesitate to assure our friends of tho Telegraph, and also our neighbor of the Republican, who seoms to feel some solicitude on the sub ject, that, let the action of the Baltimore Convention be what it may, we shall re main firm in our Demoeratio principles. When we abandon these and our aelf- rcapoot, and not until then, can we cast onr vote for Horace Greeley. Then wo hove Oon. Henry U.
