Connecticut sill Itiglit.
It was with exceeding gratifica
tion that we chronicle I in our last
issue, the decisive Democratic suc
cess in Connecticut. Occurring
on the heel of the election in New
Hampshire, where it was bonsting
ly claimed, that the victory-flushed
columns of the Democracy hail sus
tained a signal check, the struggle
was regarded by all parties with
peculiar interest. The issue was
to decide whatever was of doubtful
significt nee in the New Hampshire
election, and prove an augury ol
success or disaster in the grand
campaign of "76.
Ingcrsoll's re-election by an in
creased majority, and the return ol
a Democratic legislature despite the
most active opposition, may well be
accepted as convincing proof that
the drift of public sentiment, as ex
hibited in the Western elections, is
still surging ahead, and that the
people of the North have at length
began to appreciate Radicalism,
and are no longer te he hoodwink
ed by its miserable partisan catch
cries.
It is worthy of special notice
that there were no local issues in
volved as heretofore—tho contest
was made on purely national
grounds, and in no previous can
vass have questions of purely na
tional concern been so boldly and
sharply defined and discussed. In

the platform of State Rights, and
the consequent limited pow er of the
General Government, and of course
in opposition to Grant and the Rad
ical programme, while his opponent

Liberty Haii,, • j
CIXAWFORDVIU.K. Ga., V
March 31st, 1875.
Editor News: My attention has
been called, by the kindness of a friend,
to an editorial iti your paper of the
22d inst., and a communication in the
same issue, over the signature of
‘l’hilokris,” each containing strictures
upon uiy course in Congress, which, 1
am informed, some of your readers think
I ought not to permit to pass unnoticed.
It is due to myself, as well as to the
country, 1 am told, that I should
authoritatively respond to those grave,
public charges against my fidelity to
the enusc of constitutional liberty.
The copy of the paper referred to
was received several days ago, but my
time since then has been too much oe
eupied with company and other busi
ness of pressing importance, for me, at
an earlier day than this, to give the
subject that notice which its character,
in the opinion of others, seems to de
mand.
You will, therefore, please allow n,e
the privilege of now expressing th.ough
your columns, as briefly aud pointedly
as possible, and also in language irn
tended to be entirely respectful, my un
qualified protest against tho misstate
ment iu matter, and what i can but
look upon as tho disingenuousness in
tone, which pervade both of these ar
ticles. As fair specimens of the mat
ter, as well as the tone, which charac
terize both, from their beginning to
their eud. the following extracts —one
from oach —may be given. Iu the edi
torial, for instance, you say :
" “Jt has been with extreme reluct
ance aud only from a profound sense
of duty that we have expressed our
dissent from the course of Hon. A. II
Stephens in upholding the usurpations
of President Grant, by which constitu
tional gov ;o: .out has been virtually
overthrow h in ifie State of Louisiana
and a military despotism established in
its stead. In the confident expecta
tion that Mr. Stephens would in his
place on the 1i -or of the House, at the
proper lime, give the country his views
of the policy of the Administration
towards the people of Louisiana, and
that lie would make known the reason
whieh impelled him not only to justify
the Kellogg usurpation, but al.-o to ap
prove the subsequent military inter
vention for its maintenance, we re
frained even from an expression of our
surprise at his course, so widely at
variance with the known sentiments of
his constituents and of the constitu
tional Democracy of the Union. When,
however, he nov only failed to ra.se his
vo ; ee in denunciation of a deliberate
and persistent system cf usurpation and
outrage, such as has never before dis
graced the annals of even the Radical
party, but by his vote in tlie last hours
of Congress conributed to defeat the
parliamentary tactics of the Democrats,
the object ol which was to prevent the
endorsement o) the Kellogg usurpation
by the Radical majority in that body,
we were constrained, more in sorrow
than in any spirit ot fault finding with
our distinguished Representative, to
express our dis-ent, from his course.”
In the communication referred to,
signed “Philokris,” (and which from
its position and the leaded style m
which it is put up, may bo considered
assent forth with editorial sanction,)
the writer, after stating what lie had
said in a previous article about “ the
distinguished author” of “the war be
tween the States,” “ was in sorrow not
in anger,” goes on with the following
language:
*• And some people entertained un
b miide I confidence in bis resources,
power and influence. They looked on
him as ihe Moses who was to lead u
through the wilderness of ditficulties
in which we bad become involved safe
to thj Canaan of restored po-ition and
weight in the administration of the
affairs of this eoun ry. 'l imy looked
on him as the greatest living Apostle,
the very Paul of State sovereignty
And what was the sequel ? \\ hat has
he dune ? IL.w has lied fended Stati
rights? What has been his courser
lie has defend 'd back-pay. supported
Grant, voted with Radicals ag in-'
Democrats! Oh! what a falling off!
11 iw have we found our idol, clay 1”
First, then, as to the u.alter ot’ the
above extracts, against which I enter
my unqualified protest.
When and where, in what w -r.l, or
by what deed have I ever “uph- Id.”
“defended,” or ■•suppotled” any act ni
“usurpation” by General G i ant or any
body else, cither in low or high .■ fli• ; 1 1
s’ . X jou 111
reetly and squarely upon the facts on
which your aceusai ions are ha ed You
say farther in your editorial that you
expected me. in my pbo-e in the House,
to make known the reasons which “im
pelled” me “to justify the Kellogg us
urpation.” When and where, I u.-k,
did I ever by word or deed justify any
usurpation of Kellogg? I aver that
no “reasons" nor powers have ever yet
••impelled,’’or induced me to justify or
sanction any usurpation whatever, and
never will so long as I retain the facul
ties of my mind. 'J his statement, that
I have by some aet or word justified
the Keihgg “usurpation,” you will
please allow me umst respectfully to
say, is as groundless in point of fact as
it is injurious in force of terms My
life has been devoted to the mainten
ance of right against wrong—ti e rights
of individuals as well as the rights of
States against all abuses of power which
tend to oppression and tyranny; and
you are most respectfully asked to
specify, if you can, a single word or aet
in that life, private or public, at vari
ance with this averment. You have
the record off >rty years before you.
If I have ever said or done anything
in relation to any aet of General Grant,
which is not maintainable upon the im
mutable principles ot right, truth and
justice, you will do me n favor by nam
ing it.
Again, you say in effect, (and must
have meant to be understood as so say
ing in terms, if you meant anything.)
that my vote, “in the last hours of Cun
gress,” to take up the report of the
Committee on Louisiana Affairs, en
abled the Radical majority of the
House to endorse the Kellogg usurpa
tion.
Allow uie to say to you. as befote.
that this statement, if you intended it.
as I suppose you did, is utterly errone
ous. My vote did not enable the Rad
ical majority of the House to do any
such tiling; nor did that majority do
any sue!) thing. There was no endorse
uient of the legality of Kellogg’s elec
tion. nor ol a single aet of h.s adminis
tration. Rut my vote did enable a ma
jority of the House to put their ex
piicit condemnation upon the huge
iniquity of the Radical returning board
in Louisiana, by which the Democracy
of that State load been defrauded of the
majority in the House of Representa
tives of the Legislature, to which they
were rightfully entitled. By my vote,
which turned the scale, and decided
the question of taking up that report,
this condemnation was secured—a con
demnation the more signal from the
fact that it was unanimous—every Radi
cal, as well as every Democrat, the in
House voting for it! This grand re
sult, which never would have been at
tained without my vote, however you
and others may look upon it, I regard
as the greatest triumph in the vindica.
tion of popular rights and State rights
achieved on the floor of Cougress for
the sixteen preceding years. It opened
the way, too, fur another like vindica
tion on the Arkansas question, which
soon followed.
But in voting, as I did, to take up
the report of the committee, I was
found voting with Radicals,aud “against
the parliamentary tactics of the Demo
crats,” whose object, you say, was “to
prevent the endorsement of the Kellogg
usurpation !” That is the “tactics” 1
did not yield to—it seems, were planned
with a view to prevent what no one
even proposed to do. Wise and saga
cious ltade s of the “ Democracy of
the Union,” think you, were those who
planned such “ parliamentary tactics ?’
Heaven forbid that I shall ever be
found following such leaders, when
public liberty is at stake; and Heaven
forbid that the cause of the true De
mocracy of the United States shall ever
be committed for guidance and control
to the hands of the authors oi such
“ tactics!”
My great offence, then, consists in
giving a vote by which no change was
effected as to the status of Kellogg, but
by which the crimes of tho returning
boar 1 against the rights of the people
and of the State of Loi isiana were
unanimously condemned by the House
of Representatives in Congress ; and
by which, through the peaceful instru
mentalities of the Constitution, that
State has been relieved from the terri
ble scourge of military interference,
and the whole country relieved, tem
porarily at least from the anguish of
one of those virulent cankers upon (hr
body politic growing out of the recon
struction usurpations of Congress,
against which i have ever warred and
ever shall war.
1 his, forsooth, is my b'undcr, my
crime, my worse than archangel fall !
[t is for this ‘• Philokris ” exclaims
How have we found our idol, clay !’
In this consists my desertion from the
principles taught in the “Constitu
tional view of the war between the
States?” Excuse me, Mr. Edior.f r
s.ying t’rrt all who thu< really think,
if any sue: theie lie, have my si. cere.-t
pity atil pi"f'oin'b'St commiseration.
!>,. 1 1 tlia’.n maiuriiT of
my h-n sfituents, niia a majority. I trust,
.if iHe Democracy of the Union, are
not in that el.iss. Your assertion in
this particular is I ween, ns grafuit li
as in others. You aud -‘Philokris”
would do well also to remember that
it was not Moses who fell, but those
who “departed” from the true fui'li.
and erected in its stead a molten calf
as their “idol,” before which they
bowed down and worshipped. Hence,
their troubles r.nd sufferings.
So much as to the matter set forth
in my double arraignment beforo your
readers.
Secondly, then, with your indul
gence, I have a few words to add as to
the tone of that arraignment. On this
point you must allow me most respect
tolly to say that as it seems to me both
articles evince an objector purpose not
unlike that of the wolf in the fable
limit was bent upon a quarrel with his
intended “ictim —fas nut lie fas. When
the charge of muddying the waters in
the stream above him by the one below
was too flimsy a pretext to justify his
ulterior designs, another one mere
specious, but equally fallacious, was
soon afterwards resorted to. Whether
the result in this case, if it really be as
it appeals to me, will be similar to that
in the fable, time must disclose. But
if this case is not as it seems to me.
(which you know best,) if the rcul nl>.
jeet and purpose of these imputations
against my fidelity to true Democratic
principles be not barely a prelude to a
contemplated open war upon me and
my known positiou in the coming great
struggle between Constitutionalism and
Centralism iu the United States why,
let me ask you am I not only thus as
sailed in your paper upon charges so
groundless, but also made the special
object of assault for my course upon the
repeal of the Act of March, 1873, in
crea-ing the pay ol members of Con
gress ? Was uiy position ou that
question different in any respect from
that of both oi our distinguished Sena
tors, Gordon and Norwood ? If 1
voted against the repeal of that Aet.
did not they do tho same? Is it nut
well known that General Gordon was
in Washington 3d March, 1373, and
urged his friends to vote for the in
crease, though he had not yet taken
his seat? Nay, more, did not Senator
Norwood not only vote for the increase
in March. 1873, but also receive and
retain the “back pay?” If I defended
those who, like Senator Norwood,
voted for and received the “ back pay”
against the charge of being “public
robbers,” or being guilty of anything
illegal or immoral to. doing, show-
ing, as I did, that the ablest, truest
and purest men of the country from
the beginning of the government hud
received the “back pay" ou the increase
of salary, does that justly subject me
to be singled out and denounced for my
course on this subject ? Does this thus
singling me out fur reprehension in
this matter look much like being “con
strained” in the expression of your dis
sent from tny course “ more in sorrow
than in any spirit of fault finding ?”
To me it looks very much as if your
purpose was the same as that of the
rnlf. I speak in perfect candor and
frankness. What view others may
take of it 1 know not. I speak only of
myself on this point.
In regard to your “sorrow,” and
that of your eorresp indent, all >w me to
assure you and him that 1 feel duly
thankful for your united sympathies,
but think you and !'.e ha 1 better re
serve them for m ie appr> pride be
stowal. In the mar future if you. he,
and a majority of (he Democracy of the
Uni n. shall still adhere to the worship
<f your “idol” erected in Baltimore in
1872, your present sorrows uray be
greatly increased, hut even then, if in
life, 1 shail say, as now, to you, and all
who denounce me lor what I have done
in Congress, and shed tears of “sorrow ’
over it, “ Weep not for me, but weep
lor yourselves” and for your country —
brought to ruin by the friends of the
Constitution being guilefully induced
to follow those whose “tactics” lead in
evitably to defeat, disaster and destruc
tion. Very respect fully.
