The Nomination of Greeley
--The Duty of the Democ
racy.
The nomination of Horace Gree-
Jcy for President by the Cincin
nati Convention of “Liberal Re.
publicans” took the country by
surprise. Allhough his name had
been mentioned in that connection,
it was not believed that he was in
any body’s way, and the balloting
shows that he was not the first
choice of a majority of the Conven
tion. His nomination was brought
about combination with Gratz
Brown, of Missouri, who brought
to his support strong reinforce
ments from the West. The nomi
nation has been variously com
mented on by the Southern press
of the Democratic party, some
endorsing it as the best ticket and
combining more elements of suc
cess than any ticket which could
have been put in the field, others
regarding it as so objectionable
that the Democracy ought not to
support it in any contingency.—
The majority, so far as onr inform
ation extends, are willing to abide
the action of the Democratic Con
vention which will assemble in
Baltimore on the 9th of July. If
that convention, after a careful
review of the situation and look
ing to the best interest of the
Country, shall determine that the
chances are against the success of
a straight Democratic ticket, and
declines making a nomination,
then as between Grant and Gree
ley we have no hesitation in say
ing that we will cheerfully support
the Cincinnati nomination as a
choice between evils, our doctrine
both in business and po'ities being,
if we find it impossible to get ex
actly what we want, not to fly off
at a tangent, like a spoiled child,
and refuse to take anything, but
to accept the best that is offered,
and wait with patience until we
can secure the remainder. The
election of Greeley upon the pisi
form of principle adopted by the
Liberal Republicans, no matter by
whom elected, would be a long
stride in the right direction. 1 uk
en as a whole, that platform, which
we publish this week, is as unob
jectionable as any platform upon
which there could be an union of
any portion of the Republican
party with the Democracy. It is
a hopeful sign for tiie country in
these days of political demoraliza
tion and corruption, when a large
aud representative convention of
the Republican party, in control
of the Government, should have
the manly courage to boldly at
tack their own , administration,
and announce as fundamental doc
trines in the creed of their party,
the supremacy of civil over mili
tary authority ; State sovereignty,
or as it is termed in the North,
local self-government—a doctrine
always dear to the South, and
especially so now, when every
advance by the party in power
has been a step towards central
ization ; universal amnesty and the
removal of all political disabili
ties; a return to the methods of
peace and maintaining the Consti
tutional limits ot power; and an
enforcement of that Constitutional
provision which guarantees to the
citizen the privilege of the writ of
liberty—-the habeas corpus.
If, however, the Democratic
party, taking advantage of the
split in the Radical ranks, sees an !
opportunity to elect an independ
ent ticket of their own, then we
will heartily support the nomina
tion which may be made by the
Baltimore Convention. Upon that
convention devolves a grave re
sponsibility, one which we have no
doubt the delegates will feel and
fully appreciate. The important
question before them will be not
who shall be our standard bearer,
but is it to the interest of the coun
try that a nomination bo made at
nil? And in this connection one
important fact must be taken into j
consideration. If the election is i
thrown into the House of Repre- |
sentatives, Grant’s detection for
gnother term is a certainty. Per- 1
haps by the time the convention |
meets the situation will be so fully
developed that we will have no
difficulty in arriving at a conclu.
sion upon this vital subject.
To sum up our position in a few
words, wo will give the ticket
nominated by the Baltimore Con
vention, if we are satisfied there is
a probability of success, a cordial
support ; if that convention sees
proper to make no nomination,
but leaves the Democracy untram
meled as between the contending
wings of the Republican party,
wo know no reason why we could
not as cheerfully support Greeley
and Brown, especially upon their
platform, as any ticket the Repub
licans would have put in the field
Our first choice would have been
Mr. Adams, but as between Davis,
Trumbull, Chase, Palmer, or Giee
ley, we would prefer Greeley. He
has done a great many things
which no true Southern man can
willingly endorse, yet he has shown
that lie can rise far above mere
party ties, as has been demonstra
ted by his becoming bail for Jef
ferson Davis againstß the protests
aud in the face of the threats of
his own party; and his unwavering
advocacy of universal amnesty,
when even Andrew Johnson was
prating about “making the rebel
lion odious” by punishing its load
ers. We dp not want any more
Presidents who have “got no pol
icy of their own to enforce.” Let
us be patient—“the mill of the
gods grinds slowly.”
Congress.
We ( lip from the Congressional
Globe the following extract from the
proceedings of the House of Rep
resentatives :

Claims, and ordered to be printed.
Mr. Price also introduced a bill
(11. R. No. 2670) to authorize the
Secretary of the Treasury to pay to
the State of Georgia the sum of S3OO,
000, or such sum as may be found

Supreme Court Decisions.
Mary A. Mosley, Administratrix!
vs. William Hogg. Complaint,
and non suit, from Pike.
Warner, C. J.
This was an action brought by
flic plaintiff against the defendant
on a promissory note, dated 12th
November, 1861. The defendant
plead to the action, and alleged in
his plea, that the note was given
for the hire of a negro slave nam
ed George, belonging to one New
man, who was hired to work in a
blaeksmith's shop, and that the
consideration ot the note was giv
en for the sei vices of said negro, j
and that since the note was given, |
the collection of such claims has J
been declared to contravene the j
policy of the law; wherefore lie ’
asks that said suit be dismissed.—
The plaintiff demurred to the dc-1
fendant’s plea on the ground that
the 17tli section of the stli article
of the Constitution of this State,
adopted in 1868, which denies
jurisdiction to the courts of this
State of the plaintiff’s demand, is j
in violation of the 10th section of
tiie Ist article of the Constitution
of the United States, and is void
which demurrer was overruled by
the court, and the plaintiff excep
ted. '1 lie plaintiff’s counsel ad
mitted that under the evidence
offered at the trial that the consid
eration of ti e note was for the
hire of a slave. The defendant
then moved the court to dismiss
the plaintiffs action, on the ground
that the court had no jurisdiction
of the case, which motion was
granted by the court, and the
plaintiff excepted. The 16th sec
tion of the 5 b article of tiie GVm
stution of 1868, declares that “No
court or officer shall have, nor
shall the General Assembly give
jurisdiction or authority to try, or
I give judgment on, or enforce any
1 debt the consideration of which
was a slave or slaves, or the hire
thereof." By the 10th p otion of
the Ist article of the Constitution
of the United States it is declared
I that “No State shall pass any law
impairing the obligation of con
tracts.” The 17th section of thp
sth article of the Constitution of
1868, denying to the courts juris
diction to enforce the collection of
the plaintiff’s debt, not only in
paired the obligation of bis con
tract but annihilated and destroy
ed it, because it denies to him any
and all remedy to enforce that ob
ligation against the defendant.—
The 17th section of the sth article
of the Constitution of 1868 so far
as it affects the obligation of the
; plaintiff’s contract in this case
denying to him any and all rem
edy to enforce it against the de
fendant, is in violation of the 10th
section of the Ist article of the
Constitution of the United Slates
and is, therefore, mill and void.
Let the judgment of the court
be reversed.

revei sal on the sole ground that
the Supreme Court of the United

of White vs. Hurt, that the 17th

tution of 1868, is void tins court
is bound to conform its judgment
to the decision and judgment of
the appellate tribunal having juris
diction of the question.

was argued, delivered no opinion.

When a note was given by prin
cipal and security during the war,
which at the close of the war was
scaled to a gold standard, a new
note given by principal alone for
the amout thus scaled, and the new
note accepted by the payee, in the
discharge of the first: note, this is
a novation of the original con
tract, and the Relief Act of 1870
is inapplicable to it and no pay
ment of taxes was uecessary.—
Judgment reversed.

When a discoverer of any scien

the learned in science, to test the
merit and truth of his discovery by
severe tests ar.d practicle results, and
then to indorse and recommend it,
it is fair to presume it is valuable for
the purpose intended. Such has
been the course pursued by Messrs.

Address of the Liberal Re
publican Convention to tiie
United States.
The administration now in power
has rendered itself guilty of wanton ;
disiegnard of the laws of the land
and of the powers not granted by
the Constitution. It has acted as if
laws are’binding force only for those
who are governed, and not for those
who govern. It has thus struck a
blow at the fundamental principle*
of constitutional government and at
the liberties of citizens.
The President of the United has
openly used the powers and oppor
tunities of his high office for the pro
motion of personal ends.
He has kept notoriously corrupt
and unworthy men in places of pow
er and responsibility, to tbe detri«
meet of the public interest.
lie has used, the public service of
the government as a machinery of
partisan and personal influence, and
interfered with tvianical arrogance
in the politicle affairs of States and
' and municipalities.
He lias rewarded with influential
and lucrative office men who had ac
quired his favor by valued presents,
thus stimulating the demoralization
of our political life by his conspicu
ous example.
He has shown himself deplorably
unequal to the tasks imposed upon
Rim by the necessities of the country,
culpably careless of the respon-ibili
ties of bis high office.
The partisans of the Administra-
I tion, assuming to be the Repulican
; party, and corilroling its organiza
tion, have attempted to justify such
1 wrongs and palliate such abuses.
' To tiie end of maintaining partisan
ascendancy, thev have stood in the
way of necessary investigations and
indispensible reform, asserting that
iio serious fault could he found with
the present administration of public
affaifs, tints seeking to blind the eyes
of the people
They have kept alive the passions
stiff resentments, of the late civil war,
-to use them for their own advan
tage.
They have restored (o arbitrary
measures in Hi riot convict with the
organic law, instead of appealing to
the better in tincts and latent patri
otism of the Southern people by re
storing to them those rights, the en
joyment of which is indispensable
for a successful administration of their
local affairs, and would tend to move
a patriotic and hopeful national feel
ing.
They have degraded themselves
and the name of their party, once
justly entitled to the confidence of
the nation, by a base sycophancy to
disposer of executive power and pat
ronage, unworthy of Republicrn free
men
They have sought to silence the
voice ofjust criticism, to stifle the
moral sense of the neople, and to
subjugate public opinion by tyrani
cal party discipline.
They are striving to maintain them
selves in authority for selfish ends,
by the unscrupulous use of the power
which should ho employed only in
the service of the country.
Believeing than an organization
thus led and controled can no longer
be of service to the best interests
of the Republic, we have resoled to
make an independent appeal to the
sober judgement, eoncience and
patromism of the American people.
liberal REPUBI.CAN platform.
We, the Liberal Republicans of
the United States, in National Don*
vention assembled at Cincinnati,
proclaim the following principles as
essential to just government:
First—We recognize the eqnality
of all men before the law, and hold
it is the duty of the Government,
in its dealings with the people, to
meet out equal and exact justice to
all, of what ever nativity, race, color
or persuasion, religious or political.'
Second—We pledge ourselves to
maintain the Union of these Sates,
emancipation and franchisement,
and to oppose any reopening of the,
questions settled by the Thirteenth
Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
ments of the Constitution.
Third—We demand the immedi
ate and absolute removal of all disa
bilities imposed on account of the re
: belion, which was finally subdued
| seven rears ago, believing that univer
j sal amnesty will result in the complete
I pacification of all sections of the
| country.
Fourth—Loeal self-government
I with impartial suffrage will guard
j the rights of all citizens more sectire-
Ily than any centralized power. The
public welfare requires tiie supremacy
of the civil over the military author
ity, and the freedom of person under
the protection of the habeas corpus.
We demand for the individual the
largest liberty consistent with public
order, for tbe State self government,
and for the cation a return to tbe
methods of peace nnd the constitu
tional limitations of power.
Fifth —The civil service of the
Government has become a mere in
strument of partisan* tyranny and
an object of selfish breed. It is a
scandal and reproach upon free in
stitutions, and greeds a demoraliza.
lion dangerous to the perpetuity of
Republican government.
Sixth—We therefore regard a !
thorough reform of the civil service |
as one of the most pressing necessi
ties of the hour.
That honesty, capacity and fidelity
constitute the only valid claims to 1
public employment.
That the officers of the Govern- J
rnent cease to be a matter of arbitra
ry favoritism and patronage, and that
publish station become again a post i
of honor.
To this end it is imperatively re
quired tha* no President shall be a j
candidate for re-election.
Seventh—We demand asystem of.
Federal taxation which shall not un
necessarily interfere with the indus
try of the people, and which shall
provide the means necessary to pay
the expenses of the Government .
economically administered, the pen-.
siona, the irterest ©n the public debt
and a moderate annual reduction of
the principal thereof.
And recognizing that there are in
our midst honest but irreconcilable
differences of opinion with regard to
the respective system of protection
and free trade, we remit the discus
sion of the subject to the people in
their Congressional districts and to
the decision of the Congress thereon,
wholly free of Exective interference
or dictation.
Eighth—The public credit must
sacredly maintained, and we denounce
repudiation in every form and guise.
Ninth—A speedy return to specie
j payments is demanded alike by the
highest considerations of commer
cial mortality aud honest govern
ment.
Tenth- We remembet with grati
ude the heroism and sacrifices of
the soldiers and sailots of the Repub
lic; and no acts of ours shall ever
detract from their justly earned fame,
or the full rewards of their patriot
ism.
Eleventh —We are opposed to all
grants of lands to railroads or other
corporations. The public domain
shall be held sacred to actual sett ers.
1 Twelfth—Wo hold that it is the
duty of Government in its inter
course with foreign nations to culti
vate the friendships of peace by treat
; ing witli ali on fair and equal terms,
, regarding it alike dishonorable either
to demand what is not right or to
submit to what is wrong.
I Thirteenth—For the promotion and
success of these vital principles, and
the snport of the candidates nomi
nafed by this convention, we ii.vite
and cordially welcome the co oppera
tion of all patriotic citizens, without
regard to previous political affilia
tions. Horace White 4
