' From the Newnan Herald Republicanism vs. Centralism. The character ol the legislation in the South has been such as to encourage and to stimulate en mity between the white and colored races. I maintain that whatever disor der has existed in the South has been the legitimate fruit of carpet-bag rule. That the accounts of Ku Klux outra ges in the South have been very grossly exaggerated for mere political capital, can hardly be gravely ques tioned- Rut even to concede the ex istence and character of these com binations, what, but the terribly mis chievous policy of the President and Congress, has contributed to brim*- about this state of affairs ? We ar raign the Radical party to day, before Heaven and men, on the charge of shedding innocent blood to accomplish partisan ends. Violence and blood are the companions of tyranny. Man was not made to be ruled bv bayo nets. The idea is repugnant alike to the suggestions of reason and the voice ot conscience. The locked shields and measured tramp of a pampered and insolent soldiery may secure a lempoary out reluctant alle giance. Tne seats of despotic Princes encircled Oy the glitter of bayonets may resist and defy popular commo tion. But, sooner or later, the voice ot le.sou and the lefty dictates ot humanity will be nemd. There is a spirit 111 man winch will “oroox too eternal devil ’to assert and maintain us independence. Chains cannot oind nor can prison wails or dungeons oars coniine it. me greatest eneuiv to human freedom said: tnat a, man nuui wid be give for ms lde.’ &ucn language does not suit tne ups •ol lrceiueu. Clod iliuiignty is lae au liior of liberty, and angels keep tne memory ol us mariys. mere are tunes \\ lien luu used woUid be an al loy m lue crown 01 death. T'nat time arrives, when there is no iiope 01 relief itoui disgrace, misrule and prcssiou. Yv e, by no means, give countenance to violence. »v e adopt the injunction of Scripture : “Re stio ject to tne powers tnat ue.” Rut, 1 leiiow-cilizenc-, tilt* people of tne iSoutn nave been almost goaded to resisieuee, such has been the character ot the fo cal JSluie governments. Look at the political history ot seven*of the South ern Elates since the war. What has there been to encourage industry or inspite love ot country. What but naked villainy and wrong, relent less cruelty and unblushing perfidy have been the characteristic features of our legislation .• With no protec tion from tire general government, with no Constitution, the a*gis ot whose protection we could claim, we have been absolutely leit to the “ten der mercies ofthe wicked.” The colored man has been sedulously taught that the white mail is his enemy. They have been made to believe that their best interests can be subserved by opposing those of the whites.— They have believed that harmony be tween the races, in Church or State, w-as but the harbinger of their re en slavement. This has been the policy of Radical leaders in the South. The sole object has been to maintain polit ical ascendency. The fountains have been poisened and the waters are bit ter. Violence, then is the fruit of their policy No complaints about Ku Klux have gone up to Washing ton from Kentucky, Missouri and \ ir ginia ; and why 1 Simply because these States have not been cursed with carpet-bag governments Give to their seven sister States good gov-' eminent, take the galling yoke from their necks and the hand ot plunder from their treasuries, and no more will be heard of “raw head and bloody bones.” The Radical party is guiltv of the shameful inconsistency of having precipitated these evils on the South, and of having then taken advantage of their existence as an excuse for further oppression. Such is the fact, and such the record. But we must now pass to other pledges of the President. Before the inauguration in 1869, the corruption, incident to the war, had fastened num berless evils on the civil service of the government. Officers created to meet the exigences of the war had bet'll continued long after tlm occasion which justified their creation had pass ed away, thus necessitating an mous expenditure of public money without any return. This imperative ly demanded correction. Incompes tency with not a few, and dishonesty , in many, had shown them wholly un | lit for responsible official station.— 1 With an enormous war debt hanging over the country, like a gloomy night mare, the complete derangement of the labor system in the South and the utter postration ot industry by the character of our State governments, it well behooved those in power to I look cat efully to the sources of reve CAROLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 1, 1872. nue To be sure, the President was not to he held responsible for evils ah leads in existence, before his inaugus ration. But he came into office with the avowed determination to under take a thorough and satisfactory re loi mol the civil service. The coun try hoped he would at least undertake what he had promised to accomplish. Instead of reformation and correction the old corruptions have continued in all their terrible luxuriance and others or more ruinous tendencies have crept in. f ile foul infection seizing 011 the vitals of the Republic and revelling in the life blood of the nation, has fallen like a devouring pestilence on the people. From the humblest to the highest official station we see the in fernal brand ot corruption. Men, un questionably, guilty of peculation and robbery have been retained in office, while others proverbially dishonest ami of known reputation for “ways that are dark end tricks that are vain” have been elevated to positions of res ponsibility and trust. Support of the President, is the only condition pre cedent to the atttaiument of position, fidelity to the leader is made the sole test of capacity, honesty and loy alty. Opposition is treason. The touch stone of patriotism is zealous, blind, open and unqualified adherance to the pretentions of the lord and mas ter. W hen the process of dissatisfao lion commences, then, and not until then, commences the process of de capitation. »So it happenstovlay, fellow citizens that, out of the thousand, in the dit ferent departments, who hold their positions directly or indirectly through appointment by the President there is not one who does not ckng to the skirts of his garment ; there is not one who is not loud-mouthed for the i e-eiectioii of the President. If there be such an one, he is a complete mas ter of the acrobat. Nor is a lukewarm support givei, by these poor, deluded men. They “eat the crumbs- which fall from tho masters table,” and would surely be ungrateful to push away theopen-handedliberality which supplies their daily food. The shlb boleth is “Grant,” and the oily toa eges of these petty but well paid poli ticians, pronounce, and must pro iionnce, it. on all proper occasions.— From the Honorable Secretary to the humblest little post-master, dealing with lavish hand campaign documents by the thousand, ah, all, rally to tli standard of the partizan chief, anff give their influence to continue him in power. And what may we hope for our country, fellow-citizens, when those who fill its offices are the willing slaves of one man whose ambition lor power is only equalled by his want of capacity to use it T What can we promise ourselves or posterity, when we behold a base subserviency of the legislative and judicial departs ment of the government to the will ol one man ? There was a time when men where selected for position who exhibited those qualities of h< ad and heart which rendered them lit to be trusted. But we are to-day presen ted with the melancholy spectacle of a President ot* a great republic abso lutely engaged in the sale of offices. — So many dollars may not be received but votes are current money at the Capitol of the nation, and the blush of ingenuous shame should deepen on the cheek of every honest American, when this system of barter and change is openly practiced by the Chief Executive. Is money needed to carry a State election ? It pours in from the public treasury. Is it necessary to displace and elevate an other to office? The work will be ac complished. Must new offices be created to meet the demand ? A reckless Congress is at hand to fulfill every desire of the President. Are votes needed ? Then so much pat ronage is promised for so many votes. Bills which deeply concern the public interest are to be passed. But before this can be accomplished those who are anxious to meet the needs and wishes of their constituents must sol emly pledge themselves to support I the administration. Laws must be | made and expounded with a sole view to the re-election of the President.— j Worse than all this, and far more de grading to glorious prestige of the j American name, the President has I not scrupled to offer bribes in order to effect his purposes, thus disgracing himself and leaving a dark stigma on the fair escutcheon of his country. — Such is the character of the reform promised in 1868. Heaven deliver us from more of such reformation. From the very day of his inaugura tion, corruptb.n has continued to eat into the civil service cd the govern ment, and not one effort has been made to stay its progress. Look at the robberies and defalcations in ev ery department of the government — In the Internal Revenue Department the figures run up to the sum $1,392,- 958 ; in the Pension 'Department to $278,564; in the Post Office Depart ment to $28.00); in the Treasury De partment to $90,500 :in the Depart ment of State to SSOO ; in the Depart ment of Justice to $121,312 : Depart ment of Customs to $147,000 ; in the Naval Department to $476,483; in the War Department to $445,406. The total amount runs up to over three millions oi dollars. Here is a simple statement of known defalcations.— ibis much they acknowledge to have been actually stolen. To be sure the amonnV stolen largely exceeds these * figures. Y\ ho can look on this shame j fid record without the blush ? And yet, here we have the fruit of the , President’s Civil Service Reform. But fellow-citizens, whatever may have been the failures ofthe Pro sideut in his policy towards the South, his utter and shameful disregard of plain constitutional restrictions on ex ecutive authority, and deliberate at tempts made from time to time to override the plain letter as well as spirit of the fundamental law, no long er entitle him to the confidence or respect of the American people. The President has not scrupled to invade tiie most sacred rights ofthe citizens j without excuse or the shadow of plausible pretext. The Constitution, which ought to shelter all alike, with the aegis of protection has been know ingly violated, week after week, and month after month, until it has come to be a mere thing of straw On the ruins of Constitutional liberty and free government he has attempted to rear a centralized despotism. In this damned treason to the Republic and foul conspiracy against public lib erty, the Congress of the United States has been the pliant tool of the ! President The provisions of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments had been settled and in corporated in .the Constitution of the ! nited States, and the Constitutions of the States, placing the questions of the freedom and political equality of the colored race beyond all cavil or question. The reconstruction meas ures had been submitted to in a spirit of compromise and c. r. i iation. While there were many m the North and South who believed it was the sworn duty of the Judges of the Supreme Court to declare measures absolutely null and void they were w illing to concede their existence as accomplish ed facts. W hat more could have been honestly demanded ? The Civil Eights Act had been re enacted by the law of May 21st., 1370, and these two acts opened the Courts of the United States to every American chi zen. Colored men had already been declared citizens, and the State Courts were bound to protect them in the rights ot person and property. The different Southern States were under Radical administration. Surely Rad ical officials would pr tect their own kith and kin. The whole power of the State was at their command. By the Enforcement of May 21st 1370, and the supplementary act of February 28th 1871, the equal rights of the col ored race had been amply guaranteed. The sixth section of that* Act de clares : “If two or more persons band or conspire together or go in disguise on the public highway or upon the premises of another, with intent to vi olate any provisions of this Act or to injure, oppress, threaten or intimidate any citizen, with intent to hinder or prevent his free exercise and enjoy ment of right or privilege, granted oy secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having exercised the same, such person shall be held guilty of felony, and, on conviction thereof, shall be fined or imprisoned, or both, in the discretion of the Court, the fine not to exceed Five Thousand Dollars and the imprisonment not to exceed ten years, and shall, moreover, be, there alter, ineligible to and disabled from holding any office or place of honor, forfeit or trust, created by the Consti tution or laws of the United States.” In all candor and honesty, fellow citizens, was not this enough ? The greate-1 stickler for political equal ty and constitutional guarantees should certainly have been content. The Enforcement Act was, withqut the shadow of excuse or reason, passed and quietly submitted to, on the part of those whom it most deeply con cerned. There was no necessity for such an Act. It was a direct iava sion of the province of the State Courts. These were fully competent to protect the rights of the citizen.— The judges, in most cases were men anxious to carry out the wishes ot - Congress and the President. The militia of the State could be called in to active exercise to enforce the de cvees of the courts. The Act, in question, virtually deprives the State 1 Courts ot jmisdiction of offenses com mittod within their limits ; thus com pletely placing the judicial depart ments of the States under the in fluencc and control of the President. The States had not failed or refused to afford protection to the citizen, nor had Radical Governors sent any com plaints to Washington, that they were unable to protect these rights.— It there had been a combined and powerful resistence to law, who doubts that the fact would have been made known at Washington. If the militia of the State had been unable to quell the violence, would these lladical Governors have remained si lent ? \\ ould this opportunity to make political capital have been lost ? Nay, verily. The truth is, fellow cit izens, according to their own showing no such a condition of affairs existed iu the South. I know that the com mittee appointed by Congress to in vestigate these alleged outrages, sol emnly reported “giants in the land.” But the majority of that committee were the pliant tools ofthe President. 1 hey came South pledged to make an unfavorable report. Their report was almost wholly based on the testimony ot ignorant and superstitious negroes. Radical judges of the State Circuit Courts were w illing and anxions to testify as to the prevalence of law and order iu the South. But the testimo ny of their own men was carefully ex cluded, and they hurry back to Con gress, with hell in t! eir hearts and ven om on their tongues, to slander tne people of the Southern States. Con gress had been notified by the Gov ernorsjof the different States that there was no combined resistance to law. And yet, fellow>citizecs, in the teeth of all these facts, and fov the sole purpose of taking absolute con trol of the State government, Con gress, at the special instance and re quest of Gen. Grant, adds another act t>) the long list ot usurpations and op pressions. You have but to look at affairs in Nor.th and South Carolina to comprehend toe character of this most iniquitous legislation. Thous ands of good and true men hav e been hurried away to Northern prison to answer charges preferred by perjured knaves, in the interest of the Presi dent. By threats of indictment under this very Act, thousands were kept from the polls at the recent election in . v orth Carolina Fellow-citizens, the enlightened statesmanship of this country, cannot but regard such legis lation as a direct assault o:i the liber ties of the people, and a willful at tempt to undermine our Republican institutions P. F. Smith. I®' An amusing incident, that : might have been a painful accident, occurred on the Louisville railroad a short time since : The day was warm, the rear door of the sleeping car had been lett open. A mother had fallen asleep. Her three year old wandered to the rear. The conduc tor, J. Vv. Clark, passed through the car, looking after the comfort of the passengers as lie always does—bless his kind heart—casting his eyes to the rear platform, lie saw the little three year old swinging merrily by the platform rails—if it had lost its hold it would in an instant be a man gled mass. The anxiety of the mo ment was perfectly terrible. The danger was eminent. Clark saw it, and with the greatest presence of mind, sung, “swing, baby, swing ; swing high.” The child redoubled its exertions to swing high. Clark had carefully approached, and as the i little innocent swung forward, ho caught it in his arms and sank into a I “ seat pressing the child to his breast. ; The mother awakened, tried to thank the preserver of her child. Mr. Clark | was seen in a moment after passing through the car on his duty, a little paler, but just as calm as ever, and a j lady declared sho saw a tear—well ; “true merit is always modest.” A You no Lady Fakming.—A young J CD lady of Hamburg, South Carolina, ; has cultivated twenty-two acres of j cotton during the past spring and summer, with uo other assistance than one negro girl, whom she hired for the year for fifty-six dollars. The I » young lady did the hoeing, while the girl did the ploughing. The ground was manured with four tons of Wan do fertilizer, and it is estimated, will yield twelve bales of cotton, six of which have already been received by Messrs. Feeder A Davis, factors, of Charleston. In addition to the cot ton, the young ladv will make abun dance of corn, peas and potatoes, and enough sugar and syrup to last her for three years. She is only nineteen years of age, and this is her first attempt to make a crop. She nevertheless affords an example which many young men, and mid lled-aged ones too, will do well to follow. *. ' — CAT A quiet mind, like other bless ings, is more easily lost than gained. The Power of Love. An English writer relates the fol lowing manner in which the quiet per sistent love of a child was the redemp lion of a drunken father : “That night I was out late: I re turned by the Lee cabin about 11 o’cl ck. As I approached, I saw a strange locking object cowering under the low eaves. A cold rain was fall ing ; it was autumn. I drew near and there was Millie wet to the skin. Her father had driven her out some hours before ; she had laid down to listen for the heavy snoring of his drunken slumbers, so that she might creep back to bed. Before she heaid it, nature seemed exhausted, and she fell into a troubled sleep, with rain drops patter ing upon her. I tried to take her home with me ; but no, true as a mar tyr to faith, she struggled from me, and returned to the dark and silent cabin. Things went on thus for weeks and months, but at length Leo grew less violent, even in his drunken iits to his self-denying child: and one day when he awoke from slumber af ter a debauch, and found her prepar ing breakfast for him, and singing a childish song, he turned to her, and, with a tone almost tender, said : “ Millie, what makes you stay with me ? ” “ Because you are my father, and I love you.” “ \ on love me,” repeated the wretch ed man; “you love me!” lie looked at his bloated limbs, his soiled, and rag ged clothes. “ Love me, 5 ’ he mur mured ; “ Millie, what makes you love me ! lam a poor drunkard; eve ry body despises me ; why don't you?’’ “ Dear, father,” said the girl with swimming eyes, “my mother has taught me to love you, and every night she comes from heaven and stands by my bed, and says : Millie, don’t leave your father, he will get away from that rum fiend some of these days, and then how happy you w ill be.” And he did get away from the rum Feud. The unfaltering affection of his child, strengthened by the dying words of her mother, saved him, and restored him again his manhood. £W The true girl has to be sought for. She does not parade herself as show goods. She is not fashionable. Generally she is not rich. But, oh! what a heart she has when you find her so large’ami pure, and womanly! When you see it you wonder it those showy things outside were really wo. men. If you gain her love your tvo thousand are a million. She’ll notask you for a carriage or a first-class house. She’ll wear simple dresses, and turn them when necessary, with no vulgar magnificat to frown upon her econo my. She’ll keep everything neat and nice in your sky parlor, and give you such a welcome when you come home that you’ll think your parlor higher than ever. She’ll entertain true friends on a dollar, and astonish you with the new thought how very little happiness depends on money. She’ll make you love home, (if you don’t you are a brute,) and teach you how to pity, while you scorn a poor fashionable so ciety that thinks itself rich, and vainly tries to think itself happy. Now do not, I pray you, say more, “ I can’t afford to many.” Go and find the true woman, and you can. Throw away that cigar, burn up that switch cane, he sensible yourself, and seek your wife in a sensible way.— Dr. Crosby in the Association Monthly. A Winds Commandments. —Thou shalt have no other wife hut me, nor shalt thou, in thy sleep, dream of other women. Thou shalt not take unto thy house any beautiful, sly brazen image of a servant girl to make love to when my back is turned, for I am a jealous wife Honor thy wife’s father and mother —wear a smile when they meet thee. Thou shalt not he behind thy neigh bor, but outshine him in dressing thy wife and babies. Thou shalt not get drunk, or go to bed with thy hoots on. Thou shalt not say nice words to other ladies in my presence, nor praise them in our privacy—remember I am a jealous wife. Thou shalt not stay out after nine o'clock at night, nor snore at my side, nor kick in thy sleep. Remember, oh thou Benedict, these commandments and keep them holy, tor they are the law and gospel.
