Reply to “Union Republican."
A “Union Republican” takes tin*
place of “Grant Republican this
week and opens his batteries upon us,
because we asserted in our last issue,
that the Republican party was com
mitted by its past history, and its
present platform, as recently adopted
at Philadelphia, to social equality oi
the races. We know that this is a
pretty hard pill, for the white Repub
licans of Carroll county to swallow,
hence “Union Republican," an old
lawyer and politician, led on by “par
ty zeal,” comes to the rescue, with all
of the special pleading and quibbling
of the lawyer, and w H’artifices of the
politician, to prove to the contrary. —
He will, in our opinion, certainly find
it a hard road to ‘train 1 / if he expects
to follow in the wake of tlq party of
“great moral and ideas,’
and attempt to defend it from all the
isms, socialistic and communistic the
ories it may hatch out. Rut to the
article of “Union Republican,' which
we think we can answer in loss space,
than lie wanders over, and maintain
successfully the assertion whicn we
have made.
1 1 Union Republican” maintains
that the past history of the Republi
ran party, does not commit it to the
support of social equality, and offers
in proof of this, that the Republican
party has been in power the last three
\ ear.-', and has passed no la\y favoring,
In reply to this, we would, say, that
all the law that has been passed upon
this subject at all, viz; the civil rights
bill of 1868, was by Grant, Republi
cans, and their failure to pass the
late supplemental civil righls bill of
.Mr. Sumner, is due,’ as lie is
aware, to parliamentary tactics, it re
quiring a two thirds vote, to take that
bill up out of its regain’• order, as they
attempted, and pass it Hence their
failure, notwithstanding they were in
the majority, and a majority of them
voted for the bill. It L quite qcoba
ble that they would have been able to
have passed the bill any way, but for
i,he defection of the Liberal Republi
cans, who voted with the Democrats,
against this odious measure. So high
ly incensed were the Grant Republi
cans in the State efNew York against
the Liberal Republicans lor their ac
tion in this matter, that they thus ar
raigned them in one of their resolu
tions in the late State Convention :
“That 39 time tiling were .Libera!
Repid Means to grant common jus
tire to the freedmen of the South'
that recently by their oren 'votes in
the Senate , they combined with I>cm
itcrats, who alone were not sufficient
and sacrificed the Amnesty law,which
had passed the 1 Louse , rather than
give to the colored people.the common
civil rights , secured by. 1 fr. Suvr
nets bill."
Our readers will please recollect that
the above charge was made bv a Grant
tiepubiiean Stale Convention, and it
certainly ought to be good authority
for Grant Republicans. This charge
Grows, what really are the facts in the
case viz; that the failure of the Grant
Republicans to pass the civil rights bill,
notwithstanding they were in the ma
jority. was owing to tire defection of
the Liberal Republicans, and as we
have already stated* to paliainentary
tactics. These are the reasons why
the supplemental civil rights bill of
Mr. Sumner is not a law of the land
to day. It is not because, that Grant
Republicans in Congress, did not try
their ‘‘levelbest" to make it one. We
bhould judge that they were awfully
chagrined at this failure of their pet
measure, since they are now arraign
ing Liberal Republicans before their
constituency for bringing about its de
feat.
Our elrarge, therefore that the
past history of the Republican party
commits it to social equality; is not a
not*. zequUer, (as our friend “Union
Republican” calls it) for the assertion
is maintained as we have shown above
by incontrovertible facts.
2. The second asserticp that we
made, to which “Union Republican”
demurs, was, that* the Philadelphia
platform committed the -Republican
party to social equality.
In combating this position, “Union
Republican” shows his adroitness in
sophistry as are dark
and his logic is vain.’ But with all of
his shrewdness and plausibility, he will
find it a difficult task to convince the
yeomanry of Carroll County,
who are no politicians, but who have
good hard common sense, that there
is no. social equality in the second
clause of that platform. Not there bv
“implication” or “inference” either,
but plainly spoken out.
The demonstration cf Union Re
publican, that social equality is not in
that platform is “rich rare and racy,”
if it is a little muddy. Let us try and
follow him along as he ‘demonstrates.’
He says: “Now if the platform dues
not go beyond the Constitution as
amended by artldes; 14th and 15th on
this question, will yog not than admit
that you were mistaken in saying flint
if committed the party to social equali
ty. To which we reply, certainly we
will , but we assert and are ready to
prove, that tlic puifonu does go be
vend the amended constitution. Ar
tide 14th of the Constitution, confers
the‘right of citizenship upon the ne
gro, and article loth confers political
l ights. The Philadelpjiu platform says,
that in addition to these rights, that
complete liberty and exact equality
in the enjoyment oi'all public rights
should lv conferred upon him. This
is a considerable step beyond the
amended constitution. We all know
without “Union Republican's" defini
lion what- is meant hero by “public*
rights." It means that the negro
shall be admitted to all public places
such as churches, public conveyances
ol all kinds, hotels, public schools,
theaters etc., with compute Iherty
and exact equality as the platform
has it. or in other words upon the same
footing as the whites. If means 4hat
he must be admitted to Mr. Daniels
hotel here, and given as good aceomo
dations us any body else gets; that he
can go to our churches and occupy
Scats along side of our wives, sisters
and daughters if he chooses; that when
the cars get here, that he can walk in
to the ladies, car and lake a seat, and
no one dare eject him.. This iathe plain
common sense meaning of this com
plete liberty and exact equality in
“public rights," which we are to have
forced upon ns, if the Grant con
timies in power. It is n part of their
published programme, upon which
they are now bidding for the suit rages
of the negroes. White men of Car
roll county! how do you like it !
While it is true that “public ' does
not mean “social, yet if the negro is to
intermingle freely with in, at all pub
lie ]daces, it is evid **it that social
equality follows.
Rut let ns follow our “Union Ro
publican" a little further as he “dem on.
strates.” He goes on to say, “If you
do not so admit, (i. e. that the Times
was mistaken, in saying tl*it the
Grant platform committed the party
to social equality) why then the argu
ment is at an end (profound discovery
Mr. “Union Republican" but we beg
leave to sav, that is on* of your
“non sequiturs ,”) tbr that would be
an assertion upon your part, that the
doctrine of social equality is in the
Constitution." Shades of Bacon, de
liver us from such reasoning as the
above! Why if “Union Republican"
goes on in that style, he will convince
us, that he is the equal of th c hero oi'
Butler’s Hudibras, who it L said,
in logic was a great critic,
Profoundly skillet in analytic.
He could distinguish and divide,
A hair'twixt south aud southwest side.
The idea of the argument being at an
end and our being guilty of asserting
that social equality is in flit' Cqt.stitu
tion, because torsoalh, we will not ad
nut that, we were mistaken, in charg
ing social equality upon the Giant
platform! “Now that do settle it"
We have not space to follow “Un
ion Republican”farther as he “demon
strides," as we have limited ourselves
as well as correspondents, to column
articles, and will therefore bid him
adieu, advising our readers, to read
his article,where they will see it made
as “clear as mud," that there is no so
cial equality in the Republican party,
nor its plutfqrin, and, that we all have
been mistake,iq all this lime* as it
must have beenthc Democratic party,

“No Surrender” Again.
• °
In another place, we jmbli.sh note
from “*No Surrender,” in which he ap
pears to objec tto our calling him a red
hot democrat , and to our intimating,
that his article of last week would
give great satisfaction,* to “Grantites.'
1. To the charge of calling him a
“ red hot Democrat,” with which we
are confronted, and tor which great
offence, we are so seriously and sob
emly taken to task, in nil humility for
the great injustice, which our cones
poudent seems to imagine we have
done him, we wonM plead in ex
tenuation of our poor, erring self that
the term red hot was used in a spirit
of playfulness, and io show him we
meant no disrespect, we will state, we
are ready at any moment, to call him
lukewarm Democrat, or any other
kind of a Democrat he may choose to
be designated by.
2. To ille charge of our intimrftng
that his article would give great satis
faction to Grantites, wo would say*
that we merely predicted that it would,
and that our prediction has proved us
to be something of a prophet in this
instance, as they, (Grantites) read his
article, with as much unction as they
■lickLiriton Stephens speech delivered
in Atlanta the other night. This may
“be strange language,* but neverthe
less it is true, as all of our “ street
corner politicians ” can attest, they de
rived much “aid aud comfort” from
these documents.
It seems to us, that “No Surrender ” is
unduly exercised about “disintegration
and absorbtion” of the Democratic
party. So far as we are individually,
concerned, we do not propose to “dis
integrate” “absorb” nor isolate either,
but whatever policy the great Demo
eratic party, 1 hroitgh its accredited
representatives, at Baltimore, shall
decide upon, we shall abide. This is
our position. V* e dojriot propose to
bolt the action of the Convention, as
“No Surrender" intimates h will . it
his programme is not carried out. It
that Conventionidiould see proper to
make no nominations, and recommend
the support of Greeley and Brown,
we do not see that the “disintegration
and absolution," of the Democratic
parly naturally h Hows, as “No Sur
render” would have us Relievo. If we
understand the programme of the par
tv correctly, it is proposed, to retain
its organization, no matter wh.gt may
be the action at BaULnorr. Tills can
be done, even it it should support
Greeley and Brown, as is proven
by the action of the Democrats of
Tennessee and Missouri wherp they
supported the Liberal Republicans in
the Gubernatorial contest, and by so
doing gained much towards the ame
lioration of their condition, and where
the Democratic party is said now to
Re stronger than before the affiliation.

News.
The editor of the West Point Nows
\
is in attendance upon the United
States District Court at Montgomery
and writes his paper a letter from that
point, from which we take the follow
ing extract:
Everything in the legu-l w?t,v is
brisk and lively', the Supreme Comb
ol the State and the United States
District Court, both Wing in session
-—the latter having the largest mini
her of attendants from’ all parts of
Central Alabama. One hears nothing
while in this court but direful ac
counts of Lu klux outrages, preferred
by irresponsible persons, which like
bubbles, burst upon investigation.
Poor farmers, hones! tillers of the soil,
whose presence at homo in this crisis
of crop affairs is absolutely necessary,
are detained here ROm day to day, ei
ther under bond or as witnesses, upon
charges that, are only heard to be dis
missed, and their application for re
lease treated without the least consid
eration.
The county jail, in which the
United States prisoners are kept, is
full to overflowing, and its manage
ment is both loathsome and disgus
ting. Respectable men are thrust in
‘o tins hole, and, away irom families,
gVv made to swylter for weeks with
the greatest felons. To give you an
idea of it, the jails contains four
rooms, about 18x20 feet, in which are
confined eighty six prisoners. Surely
we are passing under the rod.
The crime with which the priso
ners are charged is a crime against
the laws of’Alabama, and at tnetime
that they were forcibly taken posses
sion of by the United States they
were in the minus of thy I*l in ore conn
ty authorities, under indictment hnd
on the eve of trial. People used to
imagine that the United States had
no authority except that delegated to
it by t-he States, and that whenever
the respective courts had jurisdiction
of the same matters the State courts
had priority: but the practice is vice
versa now. But perhaps had Ala
ham a had anybody eke at the head
of her affairs but the chicken hearted
Lindsay, the result might have been
diffeft ut.
This flagrant breach of power
would never have been attempted nor
Glowed north of Mason’s and Dick
%on’s line.
But enough of this. We are a
conquered people, and, I suppose,
ought not to complain; but the day is
breaking. When the old white hat is
hungup in the presidential mansion,
these satraps ol power will cease to
rule. ' 11.
The above is indeed a sad common
tary, upon the condition of the south
c-.rn people, under Grant’s administra
tion, and it is no wonder that Ala
bama and poor South Carolina, the
two States that were foremost in seces
sion and generally considered the most
hot headed- are now enthusiastic for
Greeley. They Lave Lit too sensibly
the heel of oppression of the party in
power, to give way to a life time pre
judice against Greeley, engendered
upon issues that are now deadgnd past,
when they see that he is right upon
the all absorbing issue of to-dav viz:
local self-government versus centrali
zation.

Grant Republican Platform.
The Republican party of the patted States
assembled in Nation il Convention in the city
of Philadelphia, onqhe sih and Otli' Jays ol
June, 1872, and declares its faith, and ap
peals to its history, again announces its posi
tion on the finest ions before the eomitrv.
1. During eleven years of supremacy it has
accepted with grand courage, the solemn da
ties of lire times. It sitppresr-ed a gigantic
rebellion, emancipated 4,m -0,000 of slaves, de
creed the equal citizenship of all, and estab
lished universal suffrage. Exhibiting un par
relied magrfanitiiity, il criminally punish-Hl
no man for political offenses, and warmly
welcomed all who proved their loyalty by
obeying the. taws and dealing justly with
their neighbors, li has steadily decreased
with firm hand, the resultant disorders of a
great war, and initiated, a wise and humane
I k)licy towards the Indians. The Pacific rail
road end similar vast enterprises have* been
generally aided and successfully conducted,
th * public lands freely given to actual settlers
immigration protected and encouraged, and
a lull acknowledgment of the naturalized cit
izens’ rights secure;! from European powers.
A uniform National currency has been pro
vided, repudiation frowned down, the Nation
al credit sustained under most e.Jaord inary
burdens, and new bonds negotiated at lower
rate; Hie revenas have been carefully collect
ed and honestly applied, despite annual large
reductions of the rate of taxation; the public
debt has been reduced, during Gen. Grant's
Presidency, at the rateol a hundred millions
a year; great financial crises have been avert
ed. and peace and plenty prevail throughout
the land: menacing foreign difficulties have
been peacefully and honorably composed
and the honor and power of the nation kept
in high respect througout the world.
This glo’.ious recoid of the past is the par
ty’s best pledge of the future. We believe
the party will not entrust the government to
any, or combination of men. composed chief
ly of those who resitted every step of th:-.
beneficial progress.
2. Complete liberty and exact equality, in
tiro opg,,ynve!d of all civil, political and pub
lic lights should bo ostaldised and effectual
ly main;.rued tmpughovit the Enion, by effi
cient and appropriate State and Federal leg
islation, Neither the law nor its administra
tion W nil animate r.ny discriuiit-et
tion in respect to citizens, by reasoned race,
creed, color qt previous condition of servitude
The recent amendments to the constitu
tion should be cordially sustained, because?
; tehy are right, rial not merely tolerated be
1* cause they are law, and shoal I L>e carried out
according to their spirit by appropriate legis
lation. the. enforcement of which can safety
b;? entrust nl only to the party that secured
those amendments.
}■ The hationaf go Vermont should seek to
maintain an honorable peace with rill nations,
protecting its citizens every where, and sym
pathizing with all people who strive for great
er liberty.
5. Any system of civil service, under which
the subordinate positions of the Government
are considered rewards for mere party zeal,
k> fatally demoralizing, and we therefore, fa
vor a reform of the system, by laws which
shall abolish the evils of patronage, and make
honesty, efficiency and fidelity, the essential
qualifications lor public position.
(J. We arc opposed to further grants of pub
lic land? to corpora tions and nlonopilies, and
demand that the national domain he set
apjjrt for frfe homes for the people.
7. We hold in undying honor* the soldiers
ami sailors, whose valor saved the Enion.
Their pensions are a sacked debt of the nation
and the widows and of those- who
died for then* country, are entitled to the
cave of an additional legislation, and will ex
tend the bounty of the government to all our
soldiers sailors who were honorably diseharg
el. an 1 who, in th ? Hm* of duty, became
disabled, without regard to. the length of ser
vice or the cause of such discharge.
S- Tin? doctrine of Great Britain and oth
er European powers -ruing allegiance,
that once a subject always a subject, having
at last through the efforts of the Republican
party !#>on abandoned, and the Aemricauidea
of the individuals tight to trail for allegiance

it ia Hx> duty of ou-r go vernmenf to guard
with jeal-ruti care the rights of adopt
ed citizens, against the assumption of imau
thoriz.ed claims, by their former governments,
and we urge continual careful encourage
ment and protection of voluntary immigration
!». The franking privilege ought to he
abolish*''] ar.ct the way t up red for a speedy
reduction in the rate of postage,
10. Among the questions which press for
attention is that which concerns the relations
of capital and labor, and. the Republican pat
ty recognize the duty of sc shaping legisla
tion as to secure full protection tuid the am
plest lit M for labor the creator of all cap
ita!—the largest opportunities, and a j-i.-t
share of the mutual profits of these two
great servants of civilization.
11. We hold that Congress and Inc Pres
ident have only performed an impo alive da
ty. in their measures for the suppression of
violent u:i 1 treasonable organizaticfis, in cer
tain lately rebellious regions, and for the
protection if the ballot box, and that there
lure, thev are entitled to the thanks of the
nut ion.
12. We denounce repudiation of the pub
lie debt', in r.nv form or disguise, as a nation
a! crime. We witness with pride the redac
tion of the principal of the debt, and 4 the
rates of inteiest upon the balance, and confi
Gently expect that our excellent national cur
rcnc-y will be perfected by a speedy lesump
of specie payments.
13. The Republican party is mindful of
its obligations to the loyal women of True id
ea, lor their noble devotion to the cause of
freedom. Their admission into wider fields of
usefulness, is viewed with satisfaction, and
the honest and, matins of any class of persons,
fbr additional rights should be treated with
respect (til consideration.
I T We heartily approve the action of Con
gress in extending amnesty to those lately in
