THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1874.
THE IMPENDING CRISIS.
The St. Louis Republican agrees
with Mr. Stephens that the next great
peril to this country will come from the
passage of the Civil Rights bill. The
reasons given for its passage bv the
Radical-Republican faction are these :
“One is that it is part of the logic of
the Republican policy, and to refuse to
pass it would be like a Republican re
action against the party. Another is
that the Senate has already passed it,
and it stands, therefore, as a half
formed part of the party creed, await
ing the expected concurrence of the
House to complete it. Another is that
the dominant party seems to need
some new disturbing idea to smite the
public mind with, and this measure will
furnish it. Add to these reasons the
fact that the Massachusetts Republi
cans demand the passage of the bill,
and that the Democracy, with that in
stinctive foresight of their opponents
policy which is seldom at fault, are ac
cusing them of a design to pass it, and
we have a weight of probabilities in
favor of it.”
The Republican admits that a ma
jority of the Radicals are opposed to
the measure, but a merciless case of
necessity drives them to the commis
sion of this crime. Like Macbeth, since
repentance is no part of their scheme,
they have gono so far in wickedness
that to turn back is supposed to be
less dangerous than going forward.
The Civil Rights bill is the last step in
the negro problem. It follows the first
successive progressions as effect fol
lows cause. The only hope for Radi
calism is disturbance in the South. The
recent so-called outrages did not ha\ e
the full effect intended ; but the Civil
Rights bill is looked to as furnishing
the necessary fuel to “ fire the Northern
heart.”
The Republican traces, from year to
year, the march of Radical policy, and
shows that every advance was made
by shocking the popular mind as a
measure of perpetuating power. We
quote:
In 1864 the Northern masses were oppos
ed to negro suffrage; but in 1868 their argu
ment against the Democrats was that the
Democrats would take the suffrage from
the negro, In 1866 they were opposed to
granting equal civil rights to the negro;
but in 1872 they feared that the Democracy
would deprive him of this grant. If, there
fore, the Republican masses look upon the
supplemental Civil Rights bill as a most
unwelcome measure, the fact is no indica
tion that the party will not force it on
them; it is rather a proof that it will do
so.
There is great fear, then, that the
House of Representatives will pass the
supplemental Civil Rights bill. There
is a chance that Grant will sign it. We
believe, if such should be the case,
that the death-warrant of the Radical
party would be sealed and delivered —
if the Southern masses will be patient
and law-abiding, awaiting the rally of
the liberty-loving people of all sec
tions, who have proved very recently
that the ballot-box is still a terror to
tyranny and a corrective of wrong.
HAY.
Fifteen hundred bales of hay recent
ly arrived at Mobile from Bath, Me.,
and met w T ith a ready sale. The local
papers refer to this as something of a
shame to the South, but the planters
of that section who buy the hay are
impervious to such rebukes, since they
have stood exorbitant rates of interest
and virtual bankruptcy for the last
nine years. The New Orleans Times
has the following anecdote illustrative
of thi3 subject:
It is not many years since a merchant
friend of ours, in Houston, Texas, who
owned a large plantation, situated on a
railroad running into that city, was in the
habit of sending to New Orleans, once or
twice a month, for corn and bran for his
milch cows. And, as we have been in
formed, one of the largest and most com
plete tanneries in the country, which was
established just after the war, in Missis
sippi, on a railroad, and in close proximity
to Now Orleans, had to resort to the device
of sending its products of leather to the
North, there have them stamped with a
popular brand, and then brought back here
ere the dealers in this section would buy
them.
It may be that this dependence upon
the East and West for commodities
which can be raised at home is the true
policy for men who are satisfied that
cotton is the great money-producer of
the South and the only thing worth
cultivating. This may be so ; but the
wretched plight of this section would
hardly prove the truth of the propo
sition.
Brooks.—The Nashville Union and
American says Rev. “ Gov.” Brooks, of
Arkansas, lias some ugly figures to face
as he turns homeward. That State re
pudiates him and his in the stentor
tones of 75,000 majority! He missed
it by going to Chattanooga. If he
stayed at home, he might have carried
out his plan for inducing the Republi
cans to ignore the election. That was
an essential feature in his plan. As it
is, the Republicans participated, some
10,000 voting for the constitution, and
piling up the heaviest poll ever cast in
the State.
Sherman.— Lest he should compro
mise himself as a Presidential candi
date, Sherman, at his daughter’s wed
ding, neither bowed nor knelt. His
only religious creed is that if people
act only half as well as they know how,
God will forgive the balance.
If that creed be true, it is quite a
comfort for Sherman.
Labatct. — The Republican nominee
for Mayor of New Orleans, Felix Lara
tct, was a Colonel of militia in 1861,
and a member of the Secession Conven
tion of Louisiana. His name is append
ed to the ordinance of secession. The
Picayune compliments him as a turn
coat and a gentleman.
Pet, any.—-The Baltimore Gazette
seems to think the negro candidate for
Lieutenant Governor on the Indepen
dent Republican Ticket, in South Caro
lina, is more interesting than Judge
Green.
THE MORAL OF THE ELECTIONS.
The New York Times admits tha| the
Democratic victories in Ohio and Indi
ana are substantial ones. The princi
pal defection from the Republican
ranks was the German element. The
Germans have had their dose of Puri
tan intolerance and sumptuary laws,
and hence there has been a general re
volt, followed by a stunning protest at
the ballot-box. The Times admits that
the unloading of monstrosities by the
Republicans has been more of a prom
ise than a performance. It concedes,
too, that the Southern outrage busi
ness was a boomerang, since the voters
of the West made the Republican party
responsible for a possible “reign of
terror.”
The Times still thinks the Republi
can party will purge itself of rascality
and hopes that New York will not fol
low Ohio and Indiana into the Demo
cratic camp.
The Herald thinks the elections prove
the vitality of the Democratic party,
since such success as it has won in
these important States has been gain
ed without any alliance or coalition, in
a straight, square fight with the sup
porters of the administration. It is
not a Liberal Republican triumph, as
Mr. Greeley’s election would have
been in 1872; it is not a triumph of the
farmers’ movement, which at one time
seemed formidable in the West; it is a
Democratic triumph pure and simple,
and it warrants the expectation that
the minor side currents of our politics
will be absorbed in one or the other of
the two main streams.
Henceforth Democracy and Republi
canism will stand face to face as the
only important parties of the future.
Should Pennsylvania and New York go
for the Democracy, the Herald thinks
the third term gooso would be cooked.
The Herald declares the moral of
these elections means better treatment
of the South. Possibly so; but we
tkink, on the contrary, it means, so far
as the present Congress is concerned,
a desperate effort at making our po
sition intolerable. Knowing or sus
pecting such a design, and its motive,
we should be as wise as serpents and
as harmless as doves.
Centennial. —The Richmond Dispatch
thus jubilates:
The victory in Ohio revives the hope for
better things. Only .think, if we could have
honest and true representative government
once more, with tho revival and re-estab
lishment of the true Federative Govern
ment of our fathers, we should bow before
the altar of all virtue and goodness, and
pour out our souls in gratitude to the God
of the Nations.
Since w’e have so many friends at the
North, the grand Centennial may be
the best thing for the South after all.
A Novelty. —The Baltimore Sun
says the Chattanooga Convention was
the first specimen of a public assem
blage of “thieves, defaulters and ad
venturers.”
The Sun. — The Charleston Sun has
resumed publication. It shines for
Green.
[New Orleans Picayune.
THE POWHATAN. .
Reminiscences of Tatnall.
Capt. Jouette, so kindly remembered
by many of our citizens as one of the
officers of the Crusader, whose visit to
this port, a short time before the late
war, when she was under the command
of Capt. Maffit,wasso cordially greeted
by our citizens, entertained yesterday
a number of his old Kentucky school
mates and New Orleans friends, on the
Powhatan, the last survivor of the old
side-wheel steamers of our navy.
The entertainment was of the most
agreeable character, and Capt. Jouette
and his gallant officers wore inexhauti
ble in their hospitality and kind atten
tions to their guests. In addition to
the pleasure of inspecting a fine ship
in tip-top condition, carrying seventeen
large guns, with three hundred men on
board, in a high state of discipline, the
genial Captain had prepared a delight
ful collation, of which his company
partook with the keen relish created
by the trip in the little steam tug which
communicates with the shore, and by
the bracing air always wafted across
the broad Mississippi.
A most delightful social interchange
of reminiscences, of friendly senti
ments, and an 'unceasing fire of wit
and joviality, made the occasion a most
agreeable one. It was rather a strange
spectacle to -witness such fellowship
and good feeling between the citizens,
in reproof or menace of whose im
agined turbulence and rebelliousness
this and the other ships of Rear Ad
miral Mullaney’s fleet were sent to this
port. There could not be a better proof
of the gross delusion which had pro
duced this sudden and formidable ap
pearance of naval armament in our
port, than the geniality and mirthful
enjoyment of this happy company.
There were, however, a few who par
ticipated in the festivity who could not
banish certain melancholy associations
connected with the Powhatan.
She had been connected with the
ante bullum glories of our navy, when
we were a united and fraternal people,
whose highest pride was in the navy
of the nation, and who were sharers in
the common glory and renown which
that splendid body of men comprising
the officers of this branch of the na
tional defense never*-failed to win for
the Republic in every war and in every
part of the world.
In those days no sectional lines of
prejudice and distinction were ever
made in referring to our naval officers.
It cost no sacrifice of State or sectional
pride on the part of our Northern
brethren to concede even the superior
ity of the South in her contributions to
the roll of the heroes whojhad achieved
so much distinction and fame for our
little navy.
The presence of this old steamer,
the Powhatan, serves to revive the re
collections of one of these worthies, a
native of the South, who before our
civil war was regarded as the pride and
ornament of our navy. We refer to
Commodore Josiah Tattnall, the com
mander of the famous mosquito fleet
which gathered all the laurels that were
won by our navy in the Mexican war of
’•l6 and ’l7.
It was with the Powhatan that Capt.
Tattnall performed that gallant
achievement some years before our
war, of rescuing the British squadron
in China, which had got aground in the
Peiho, under a powerful fort of the
Chinese, and was in momentary peril
of entire destruction by the terrific fire
to which the ships were exposed. Half
the officers and men, including Lord
Hood, the British Admiral, had been
shot down, several of the vessels were
sunk, and there were no men to work
the guns until Capt. Tattnall, hearing
of the great danger of the annihilation
of this fine body of Christian warriors
by a force of barbarians, proceded in
an open boat to the British fleet, under
a shower of shot and shell which killed
his coxswain, and having effected com
munications between his own ship and
the British gunboats, supplied from his
own crew the men to work the aban
doned guns of the British, and finally
succeeded in towing the whole fleet
beyond the reach of the Chinese batte
ries.
It was on this occasion that when
chided for the undiplomatic character
of this action, the sturdy old sailor ex
claimed, “Blood is thicker than wa
ter.”
Alas ! alas ! that our civil war should
have stricken from the rolls of our
gallant navy a name which gave so
much lustre to it. But what just and
magnanimous mind will recognize the
justice, the magnanimity or generosity
of the passion or prejudice that would
refuse the tribute of admiration, of
gratitude and of respect for so worthy
a patriot and.hero as Josiah Tattnall,
because he sacrificed his proud posi
tion in our navy, achieved after so
many years of service and danger, In
obedience to the sacred sentiment which
had been impressed on his mind and
heart from infancy, that his first and
strongest allegiance was due to the
State of his nativity.

Consumption Can Be Cured.
SCHENCK’S PULMONIC SYRUP.
Schenck’s Sea Weed Tonic, Schonck’s Man
drake Pills, are the only medicines that will
cure Pulmonary Consumption. •
Frequently medicines that will stop a cough
will occasion tho death of the patient; they
lock up tho liver, stop the circulation of the
blood, homorrliago follows, and in fact they
clog tho action of tho very organs that caused
the cough.
Liver Complaint and Dyepepsia are the
causes of two-thirds of the eases of Consump
tion. Many persons complain of a dull pain
in the side, constipation, coated tongue, pain
in the shoulder-blade, feelings of drowsiness
and restlessness, the food lying heavily on tho
stomach, accompanied with acidity and belch
ing up of wind.
These symptoms usually originate from a
disordered condition of the stomach or a tor
pid liver.
Persons so affected, if they take ono or two
hoavy colds, and if tho cough in thoso cases
bo suddenly checked, will find the stomach
and liver clogged, remaining torpid and in
aetivo, and almost bofore they are aware the
lungs are a mass of sores, and ulcerated, tho
result of which is death.
Schonck’s Pulmonic Syrup Is an expecto
rant which does not contain opium or.any
thing calculated to check a cough suddenly.
Schonck’s Sea Weed Tonie dissolves the
food, mixes with tho gastric juices of the
stomach, aids digestion and creates a raven
ous appetite.
When the bowels are costive, skin sallow, or
the symptoms otherwise of a bilious tenden
cy, Schenck’s Mandrake Pills are required.!
These medicines are prepared only by
