From the Newuan Herald, Republicanism vs. Centralism. NUMBER TWO. It was tut reasonable to consider that, after the most abundant consu mation ot their long cherished project in the emancipation of African slavery the leaders ot the party would seek to bury the causes of agitation, and re sort to every just and honorable means for the restoration ot peace prosperity and hapiuess to the whole country. In this laitli, and keenly sensible of the utter tutility ot lurther resisteuce to overwhelming numbers and resour ces, the armies of the South bowed to Hie stem and indexible decree of des Uny, and furnished tnc most unequiv ocal assurances of an earnest disposi lion to return to the ways of peace. In the spirit ot a magnanimous the, they quietly yielded tu tne conqueror and met their late with the unfeigned purpose to be as honorable in peace us they had been chivalrous in war. lly solemn legislative enactment, the btates lately engaged m rebellion con ceeded every demand made by the conqueror or even dreamed of by those who had acted a conspicious part in bringing on tiie war. Here, then, in all reason, should have been the end of state—the end ot sectional bitterness and jealousy. The period had arrived for clasping hands across the bloody chasm.” Further agita tion could only have the effect oi re viving the hates ot the past, it would only lurnish additional fuel to kindle the smouldering tires of sectional am mosity. Leading statesmen at the North had deeiaied tnat the war was begun to perpetrate the Union. Rut tue i^outn was ready to re assume its its former relations. Whether its ob » jeol were union or the abolition of slavery, or both, tiie South was ready to accept and did accept, in good iaitn and with solemn pledge tiie conditions of tiie terms of peace. Where, then, was there the shadow of plausible pretext for furlhur agitation 1 in tiie light ot truth let those answer who love truth and hou 1 or more than otiice and its spoils ! We may easily account for the poli cy pursued by those in power, when we reilect tnat the political chiefs to whom tne party looked tor guidance, clearly perceived the necessity of sprin ging new issues on the people in order to the union and strength of the party. At this juncture commenced the Re construction measures, which are a standing rebuke to the civilization ot the age and a mournful commentary on the degeneracy ot the times. It is no part of our purpose to discuss the constitutionality or unconstitutionali ty ot these measures. If they violate no provisions of the Constitution we have less cause to complain. If, on the other hand, they are clearly unconsti tutional, while we may deprecate their existence we cannot deny they are accomplished facts. On tiie 9th of June, 1866, Congress passed the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution and that amendment was ratified by the Legislature of Georgia in 1868, after the installation ot Gov. Bullock, by Gen. Meade. The amendment bad been previously rejected—only two members voting in the affirmative. It provides that the right of citizens of the United States to vote, shall not be denied orabriged either by the United States or any State in consequence of race, color or previous condition of servitude. The main text of the constitution author izes Congress to control the time and manner of holding elections. These two provisions of the Uonsitituton, taken together, arm Congress with the most ample power to protect the ballot box at all elections and to pro tect the right of all men to suffrage. In 1869, Congress passed .the loth Amendment, which provides that no State by its legislation, or the enforce ment thereof shall abridge the privile ges or immunities ot citizens of the United States. That no State shall, without due process of law, disturb the life, liberty or property of any person within its jurisdiction. That no State shall deny to any person, within its jurisdiction, the equal pro tection of the laws. This Amend ment was adopted by Georgia in 18- 70. Now, fellow-citizens, these amend ments secured the freedom of the col ored race ; 2nd, his political equality They vested in Congress the most un questioned authority to protect the colored ri.au in these rights ot person sonal liberty, personal security and personal property. In all things, he was made the equal of the white man before the law. Three fourths ot the States ratified the amendments, and they became part and parcel of the fundamental law of the land. Would it not appear that, after all this, the champions, of negro suprema cy would somewhat abate their zeal ? Would not a wise pokey have dicta- CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 25, 1872. ted clemancy in the luling power, to. wards the people of the South, alter tuCii acquiescence in measures ? It is true, the South maintained that many of reconstruction measures were unconstitutional, and that the Supreme Court should declare them null and void ; but they were willing to accept them as accomplished facts. I hey were willing to meet the whole question in a spirit offairness and can dor. But the national Democratic party was not prepared to admit the “Constitutionality and Rightness” of the measures. Before the meetino* O of the Convention at New York, v. liich nominated Mr. Seymour, an effort had been made to unite the lib eral element of the Republican party with the Democracy. The position then assumed by the Democracy ren dered coalition impracticable. Even the most conservative Republicans held that the reconstruction acts \ve*e of a purely political character, and that the Supreme Court had no au thority to disturb them. The coali tion, from one and the other cause, failed, and Gen. Grant was elected by overwhelming popular majority. We shall see. in the further progress of this argument, how the impracticable hi 18CS became highly practicable as well as absolutely necessary in 1872, and how the idenitj as well as integ rity of the Democracy is still intact and secure, notwithstanding the howl and cry raised against coilition. In March, 1869, Gen. Grant was duly in augurated President of the United States and took the prescribed oath “to support, protect and defend the Constitution.” All had been accom plished tor the amelioration of the con dition of the colored race that could have been hoped by the most san- Northern philanthropist. The ques tion of his freedom had first been set tled by the irreversible arbitrament of the sword, and secondly, by legisla tion. His political equality had been established The States recently en gaged in deadly conflict were now peacibly disposed and anxious to re assume their former relations. The President gave to the .country the gratifying assurance that we should have peace. The great masses of the American people looked with hope and confidence lor the early fulfill ment of the promise. Desponding patriotism looked up to Heaven and invoked its iidlest .benedictions on tiie Chief Executive of a once united and happy people now struggling for very life. Possesing a large measure of public confidence, he came before the people, clothed in the purple of the highest official station, with the words of peace on his lips. We will see how far executive influence has contributed to this happy consumma tion. The people were not ignorant of his inexperience in civil affairs. But they trusted that if he should do no good, lie would do no harm. They knew he was ambitious, but they be lieved he was honorable. They had listened to his promises, and believed him to be a man of truth. They were by no means ignorant of his ha bits of dissipation, but they hoped if he should have no vespect for himself he would not disgrace his office.— 'They supposed his success in war would be succeded by a not less bril liairt career as a civilian, and that he would not fail to surround himself by able, honest and experienced men.— In all these gratifying expectations, fellow citizens, the people were to be grievously disappointed. lie has been disgracefully treacherous to ev ry promise, and meanly false to every pledge. Avery few days after the inaugura tion the intelligence is flashed across the wires, that a certain gentleman, hitherto to fame unknown, is being highly honored by a conference with the President. The next intelligence we have is, that the president is the donee of a splendid summer residence and that this same undistinguished gentleman is the fortunate donor.— Another friend has presented the President with a pair of horses or car riage. If the affair had ceased here, it had been well. In a few days the country is surprised at the news that these two liberal and patriotic gentle men have grown suddenly great. — One of them retires at night a third rate merchant, dreaming of U. S., bonds and the rates of exchange. lie wakes in the morning and finds to tiis infinite delight that he has been mys teriously transported “into a large place,” and is a member of the Cabi net. A pigmy, he has slept and crak es a giant. A horse-jockey goes to rest dreaming of the turf, and wakes to learn he has been made a Secreta ry of the Interior or a Post Master General. Thus, we see, fellow-citizens, the very first act of the President was a blunder, and an enlightened public opinion will not suffer him to plead ignorance. Instead of calling to his aid honest, capable and experienced men, lie went to work to gratify the sickl y whims of his former companions of the turf and bowl. Mr. Greeley has well said : “It is the first step that costs.” This first step of Gen. Grant has largely contributed to tlm complication of our domestic as well as our foreign relations. It lias wrought confusion and stimulated dis honesty in camp and court and field But as we shall have occasion to refer to this again, when we come to speak to the robbery and peculation in the differant departments, we pass to oth er pledges of the President. The people looked for pacification and reconciliation. The President had pledged executive influence to bring about a better state of teelings between the lately hostile sections.—• He has failed a::d refused to take even the initiatory step towards the accom plishment of this happy result. The way was plain before him. Had not his eyes been closed to the light, and his ear deaf to the voice of history as the dictates of reason ; had not his soul been seared as with an hot iron ; had not partisan prejudice and base submission to petty politicians led him like the evil spirit spoken of in Scripture, whithersoever they would there was no mistaking the road to peace. A wise, practical statesman ship would, unquestionably have sug gested the importance of first recon ciling those who, by their influence and talenty give from and direction to Southern sentiment. Common sense would have dictated such a policy. Under the political regime of Con gress and the President, the very best talent in the South has been wholly excluded from anyparticipa tion in legislation or the administra tion of justice. As an inevitable consequence of this policy, we see fin the statute books of seven down trodden and bleeding States, on every page and almost in every line, the darkest re cord of infamy and ignorance, the blackest concoction of prejudice, hate, bitterpess and villainy ever brewed by fiendish Ingenuity or devised by hell ish malice. I say not as a partisan, but in the fear of Almighty Cod, that one-third of the members of the Legislature of these States have been, and st ll are, notorious thieves ; another one-third have had a decided propensity tor stealing, and the remaining one-third ! have had no encouragement to be ! honest. P. F. Smith. ( Continued.) igcificanc j of the Liberal fJoye ce it. Mr. Pendleton, of Ohio, made a speech Monday night at a Liberal meeting in Cincinnati. lie had just returned from Europe, but his speech shows that he, whilst abroad, had not lost sight of the great political cam paign in progress at home. In his ■ peeoh he referred to the significance of the Liberal movement. lie said : “The significance of this mighty move ment is—we have been told-reconcili ation and purification. Ik is this and it is more. It is-we have been told-a pure administration constitu tional legislation. It is this, and it is more. Its highest significance its chief est value is, that beneath the strug gles of party, and animating them too there is in the American heart a love of country, a spirit ot patriotism which rises in the presence of the conn try’s peril, and speaks to stillness every aspiration except for its safety. That spirit is abroad now’ ; it appeals to you all. Democrats and republicans alike. While it appeals to your pa triotism, it pi’omises safety to your ma terial interests ; to commerce, protec tion abroad and freedom from oppres sion at home ; to agriculture, exemp tion from the weight of an unequal taxation ; to capital, freedom from, governmental interference and subjec tion to the laws of trade ; to labor the free enjoyments of the results of its industry—and to all laborers, mer chants, manufactures, capitalists, bank ers, professional men, the rich re wards to be gathered in the fields of industry throughout a reunited and peaceful country. That spirit will know no weariness and seek no repose except in triumph. It will move on steadily to a great and crowning vic tory. “Whosoever shall fall ou this stone shall be broken, but on whomso ever it shall fall it will grind him to powder.” Kissing in a Tunnel.— Gentle readers, did you ever—l desire not to be personal—but did you eve l -' kiss a girl in a railroad tunnel 1 I never did, but if the truth must be told, I’ve wanted to awful bad. Not that I have any idea that gob ling a chaste salute within the dark and narrow confines ot a tunnel reu ders a kiss more deliciou? than if sto len or taken with full permission any where ; it is the novelty of the thing. It is the darkness, the rank burglary, the calculating as to time, the sudden assault, the desperate defense, the acute agony of the skirmish line of hair pins, the carrying of the outer work, the fierce struggle at the scar, the glorious sweetness of the surren der, and the eoudemnable meanness afterward, of the victory. The hur ried repairs, and the impossible at tempt to appear placid and all serene before the other passengers, I tell you there’s a short life time passed in the kissing of a girl hi a tunnel. States’ Rights. There is something reassuring in the significant remark of Governor Curtin, in his late speech. After as cribing the war to the doctrine of States Rights, he added : Now, I fear my fellow-citizens 4 that the pendulum has swung too far in the other direc tion. (Applause.) And while we had just reason to complain of the insidi ous doctrine of States Rights, we have aUo a just right to complain that there is too much centralization of government just now, overlooking the just rights of the States.” *This, remarks the Richmond Whig is the conviction and confession of the most eager and conspicuous of the war-governors of the North. “The pendulum has swung too tar in the ether direction.” The central power is absorbing all power and has become a despotism, destructive of civil liber ty. To arrest this despotism and res tore the balance of the Constitution, as originally organized, is now the duty of the hour. This the great war-Governor of Pennsylvania, in sub stance proclaims. lie and his may have wrought more mischief than they can ever repair—for they have übstitute Ifo ree for consent in the basis of the government—but he sees the evil, and will strive to mitigate its efects. With this alteration in the funda mentals, our polities and statesman ship can in the future be little more than temporary expedients for tempo ary relief, or to avert or mitigate tempo ary evil. As .all our rights of person property rest mainly on the vigor and efficacy of State institutions, it is grat ifying to know that in the future we shall have such powerful coadjutors as Governor Curtin in maintaining, as tar a3 practicable, the vigor of these institutions. Grant, st< lid, sordid and grasping, is the direct antagonism of States Rights, which represents civil and individual freedom. The Congie3sional Campaign. The Democracy of the Fourth Dis trict are now called upon to redeem the people from the odium of being represented in the forty third Con gress Tv a Radical. It will require their best effort to beat Bigby, the man of position among all others in the District who has been false to his record and his race in the Soulii. He has shifted the political scenes quite adroitly within the past feT years. lie opposed the adoption of the present Radical State Constitution giving the negroes the right to hold office, both upon the stump and at the ballot-box He is just such a charac ter on the political stage that requires a little “showing up” to see who he is and what he is. He is one of your regular “double-shuffles,” wiry, slip ptry fellows, who will slip out of the hands of any set of politicians like an eel, or will skip about as adroitly as an old flea when you attempt to put your finger upon him, and hedosen’t want you to point him out as he is John Summerfield, known as Judge Bigbv, is a man of ordinary talents, keen and shrewd in a small way, po litically, when he can place himself in the way of political preferment—a man dosen’t care a cuss for i.is politi. cal record or consistency. To prove our man from the record we simply deal in facts as stubborn as the mule species. In the month of of March, 1868, the amiable Judge was an aspir ant for the Congressional nomination conferred on one W. P. Edwards, and was considerably disappointed in not receiving it himself; but in order that his lacerated feelings might be assu aged, he became an aspirant, during the following month, for the same honor that was conferred upon Col. P. W. Alexander by the Democratic Congressional Convention at Colum bus. His position before that Conven tion was by his own consent, pledg ing himself to the support of the noin inee if he (Bigby) failed to receive it. This last statement was made m a private letter to a gentleman of this town a few days prior to the Colum bus Convention ; and, according to his pledge, as we have been informed be voted for Gordon for Governor and Alexander for Congress. In a speech which the amiable Judge Bigby made in Carrollton, a few days previous to the State elec tion in 1868, he declared, in reply to a question propounded by \V. W. Morrell, a Radical, that if Bullock should be elected, he (Bullock) would bankrupt the State and plunder the State treasury, a declaration that has proven to be quite prophetic. But since that time, the Judge has turned Radical by which he secured a seat in Congres, and in a long and tedious speech made in his place in the House of Representatives, defended the cor rupt and theiving Administration of Bullock. Not only is ho guilty of this unpardonable political outrage; but, turning upon bis people, the white people of the South, he voted with their enemies for the lvu-Klux bill, and along with Akerman, the the foulest of the foul calum nators of the South, he favored every measure that tended to crush us. In the same speech, John Summer frnld, once the aimable Judge Bigby of the Tallapoosa Circuit, in which office it is believed he endeavored to be a white man and to deal out jus tice with even balance, in the most glowing ardent style, and in language that burned, his blood warmed up with true Southern heat, ho declared himself a white man and in favor of “A White Man’s Government!” which he gave as a reason for his then but since disregarded sentiments. But in less than ninety days the political leopard changed his spots, and the white man assumed the African hue, politically, and obsequiously applied to Bullock, then Governor, but now a refugee from justice, tor the Judge ship of the Tallapoosa Circuit. Poor Bigby having “gone back” upon a creditable record, and then and there made common cause with Bullock, Blodget, et al., since which time, as a member of Congress, he has united with the worst Radicals in Congress in “going back” upon the white people of his native State, he has grown frqm bad to worse, politi cally, until his former fronds have quite forsaken him and despise his miserable weakness and political men dacity. Politically making common cause with most ignorant and degra ded element of society, he is now a candidate of this element for a second term in Congerss. When lie was a candidate for the same position two years ago, lie was supported by a good many well meaning citizens who then had confidence in him, but will not vote for him now. It’ they do then they are no better politically than John Summerfield Bigby. And Democrats of the Fourth Con gressional District will you consent, for such a man to represent you in Congress, when you can elect such an one as Henry R. Harris who has nev er turned his back upon his own to propitiate the favor of another race? Not only is Mr. Harris not guilty cf such miserable conduct, but he is just as much the friend of the negro as J. S. Bigby ; and we venture the ai sertiou that his deeds of charity to ward i them have been greater, in that they were not prompted in the inter est of his own political preferment. Voters of the Fourth Congressional District 1 rise up and scourge the po litical chamelion, we mean John Sums merfield Bigby, who takes his colors from any political hue in order that he may deceive, that lie may wreak political vengence upon the people of his native State, by voting for such measures as the KuvKlux bills and other Radical infamies.— La Orange Reporter. teLT The Jeffersonian Democrats of Georgia ha' e announced the following electoral ticket : For the State at Large—Permedius Reynolds, of New ton, and Walter 11.
