THE CONSTITUTIONALIST
SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1875.
THE NEXT WAR.
While all quiet and peaceable citi
zens of the common country nre only
solicitous for friendly relations, how
ever unpromising the prospect, theie
are certain stormy petrels of polities
who grow prophetic over the immi
nence of another civil war. Mr. Ben
jamin Butler, for example, is so down
east about the warlike appearance of
things that he has lost his appetite, as
well as his spirits, and puts on and
takes off his inexpressibles with a hor
rid languor or weariness, which sug
gests suicide or an early dissolution by
natural means. The Essex statesman
predicts an early resumption of hostili
ties growing out of Southern resistance
to Northern legislation. Per contra, a
Philadelphia correspondent of the Bos
ton Traveler makes a -casus belli of
the return to specie payments. His
ideas are novel, to say the least, and
worthy of consideration. Here they
are : ,
Philadelphia, February 18.
Editor Boston Traveler ;
Sib— By an article copied from your pa
per into the Press of this city, I am glad to
see that you recognize the existence crtl
rocks ahead, and that you will use your
utmost endeavors to carry us clear of
them; but you may rest assured that when
a country shows symptoms of decay and
daily growing evidences of discord, with a
prospect of civil war, that that country is
the victim of economic blunders. The his
tory of the downfall of every nation in the
annals of the world, properly investigated,
will prove the truth of this position.
As the late war was caused by that un
wise legislation which prevented the diver
siiication of the industries of the South, so
as to enable her to throw off slavery, so
will the next war result from those blun
ders which have prevented her from re
covering from the effects of war, and have
also prostrated the industries and beg
gared the people of the North. In a word,
both wars will have come from the meas
ures forced upon the country by men who
were ignorant of those great natural laws
which underlie the advance of society in
material and moral well-being.
The last war was due to the “ free
traders” and bullionists. The next will be
due to the bullionists alone.
I know full well that such doctrines as I
have here enunciated will be sneered at by
all Boston, but the day is not far distant
when even Boston will rue the hour when
she set herself against allowing the people
of this land to regulate the volume of cur
rency as they do the volume of all com
modities bought by currency. In brief,
Boston will see the day when she will recog
nize the fact that that which is called ‘‘rag
money ” will be preferable to a broken
national treasury or another civil war; and
these alternatives will be offered to the
country before three years pass round*
Nothing will save us from both national
bankruptcy and civil war but such a volume
of currency as will put the people to work
South as well as North, and no system has
ever been devised which is so admirable as
that which proposes to make national
paper money and Government bonds inter
changeable. Henry Carey Baird.
There are some very striking argu
ments in the above communication.
The Financial Question will become a
tremendous problem within the next
two years, and the white workingmen
of the East and West may become dan
gerous indeed when they discover that
they have been reduced to poverty and
serfdom by the ruin of the South and
her institutions, just to serve the pur
poses of Sumner and the deadly policy
of Great Britain toward this country.
The English Government, working
through its Exeter Hall fanatics and
race-unity conspirators, used Sumner,
Garrison, Phillips, and their gang, to
break down the South as a preliminary
to crippling America as a rival. Great
has been the success of the British, so
far. But when the truth shall dawn
upon the masses at the North, the pro
babilities are that Sumner’s body will
be dug up by infuriated men and sent
on a journey of discovery to find Oliver
Cromwell’s head.
New York’s Decline.—No city in the
Northern country has suffered more
than New York by a decline of South
erd trade), and now the chief city of the
South, Baltimore, is cutting down her
Western traffic. The Day Book says :
“Unless New York strives to build up
the South through a liberal political
policy toward that now abused section,
helping the South out of her political
morass and into the old highway of
commercial progress, and reaping, as
of old, great profits out of her restored
Southern trade—unless this city gets
back her old commercial relations with
the cotton and tobacco sections, some
of us Ynay live to see the great and
brilliant Central Park converted into a
cow pasture, and the palatial mansions
of Fifth avenue used for hay lofts. Let
the purse-proud nabobs, who wonder
what has paralyzed their real estate,
remember the remedy for its restora
tion-political freedom for the South.”
Cotton Factories.—The Richmond
Enquirers ays : “We have been reading
an interesting account of the great cot
ton factory at Augusta, Ga., in the
Constitutionalist of that city, in which
there are 717 looms, giving employment
to 616 men, women and children, and
producing 249,796 yards of cotton goods
a week, and we wonder why we could
not have several of these establish
ments near Richmond, on the banks of
the classic James, making the air musi
cal with the hum of their spindles, and
giving occupation to thousands of happy
people, whoso earnings would add to
the wealth of Virginia. Why, indeed?
Well, the future is all before us, and
the hope may yet be realized.”
Longstkeet.—lt is a pity to spoil a
sensation, especially such a one as
that pathetic account of Gen. Long
street returning to Georgia, and his
retirement from politics to engage in
sheep raising. But the truth of history
compels the New Orleans Times to
state that the person referred to is not
in Georgia, hasn’t been there for some
time, isn’t in the sheep-raising busi
ness, and is in New Orleans, where, at
latest accounts, he had concluded to
remain for some time to come.
Honest Jack.— An Atlanta corres
pondent of the Griffin News charges
that “ the Treasunj of Georgia and, her
credit for two years past have been un
blushingly used as a banking capital by
the Treasurer and his coterie of friends.”
THE BOUNTY BILL.
Senator Logan, of Illinois, who is the
“ raw head and bloody bones ” of the
Upper House of Congress, hit upon a
clever plan by which:the shaky Treas
ury of the United States should be de
pleted of some $250,000,000, ostensibly
for the benefit of the “ soldiers of the
Union,” but rather for the emolument
chiefly of claim agents. Logan’s idea
was either to “ make his jack ” in a
money point or view, or else, as is
more probable, create political capital
for the Republican party among tho
“ men who wore the blue.” Whatever
his motive or design, by the con
nivance and vote of Vice-President Wil
son, he managed to smuggle the bill
through the Senate, and then carried
it triumphantly to the President for
his signature. He apparently had no
doubt of Grant’s acquiescence ; but in
this he was most egregiously deceived.
The President refused to sign the bill,
and for so doing should receive the
commendation of the public at large,
independent of political affiliations.
The Bloody Shirt.—Here is a speci
men of the circulars sent out by the
Republicans of New Hampshire :
See to it, that the party which dares to
insult you and heap dishonor on the
graves of your sons who died in battle by
bringing here the rebel Generals, Gordon and
Lamar, who still swear by the lost cause to
instruct you concerning your political du
ties. Behave in a manner which will effec
tually prevent a repetition of the insult.
Come on all, in your might, and strike
down the perjured, Bourbon-yearning dy
nastand once more raise over our belov
ed State the standard of an honest govern
ment.
To which tirade the New York Ex
press replies:
Lamar and Gordon are about the last
men in the South or the Union who ought
to be picked out in this way, but where
Radicals have their way and their say there
is little hope of peace or of cordial good
will between the sections.
Still the old prejudices rankle, and it
may be good policy to avoid all causes
of irritation.
Ne\v Mexico.—The Cincinnati Com
mercial, which looks with approval and
complacency upon overwhelming ne
gro suffrage in South Carolina and
Mississippi, shrinks with horror from
New Mexico as a possible State. It
says :
In a Republic, which rests upon the pop
ular intelligence, it is a monstrous and un
justifiable act to admit into our highest
legislative tribunal’.two Senators chosen
by the votes of a population of Spanish
half-breeds, three out of every four of
whom cannot read tho ballot they cast at
the polls. If Congress can go any further
in the work of degrading our institutions
than this, we do not know in what direction
such downward progress would lie.”
Pin a race-unity fanatic down to the
facts of the case and the “ squealing ”
follows as a matter of course.
A Big Debt.—The New Orleans Times
says the debt of New York city is now
$114,979,969.99 ; taxation per head of
population, $32.31; debt per head of
population, $114.98. The total valua
tion of property is $1,154,029,176, and
the annual tax levy, $32,312,816.92, and
the rate of taxation, $2.80 per SIOO.
This is exclusive of State taxes. In
1860 the debt was $18,901,440.54, and
the tax levy, $9,758,507.86. The in
crease of debt in forty-four years has
been twenty-nine hundred per cent.,
and increase of taxation in thirty-four
years six hundred and forty-six per
cent.

John Milton on States’ Rights.—ln
his “ Defense of the People of England,”
John Milton wrote.
Non rex nos sed nos regem ereavimus.
Patrem natura Uedit populo, regem ipse
populusdeditsibi; non ergo propter regem
populus, sed propter populuin, rexest.”
Which may be translated liberally :
Not the Federal Government the States,
but the States the Federal Government,
created. m States exist by the will of the
people, whilst the Federal Government ex
ists by the will of the States. It is not,
therefore, owing to the Federal Govern
ment that the States exist, but owing to
the [States that the Federal Government
exists.
Volumes could hardly say more than
those few lines in explanation of a sub
ject so little understood.
Virginia and Rhode Island.—The
Washington Republican sneeringly
says:
When Virginia finally took a stand for
State rights it was in behalf of something
more important than a few barrels of whis
key; but Little Rhody is entitled to be
heard.
According to Puritan chronicles, the
country was once saved by tea. It
would be funny, if, instead of being de
stroyed, it should be saved, a second
time, by whiskey.
Sobering Down.— Mr. Stephens’ vote
on the Louisiana Resolutions, so bit
terly assailed recently, is growing into
favor, as the real state of the case be
comes known. The Richmond Dispatch,
alluding to the controversy, pithily
says : “ Old Alex, is almost sure to be
right on such questions.”
Ben Butler.—Alluding to the Con
gressional exit of BuTLERjJut forgetful
of his possible reappearance in Buf
fington’s place, the Courier-Journal
says, “Get thee to a nunnery, go !”
We should think that the last place in
the world to be suggested for the re
fuge of such a creature.
France.—Notwithstanding the tre
mendous drain upon all her resources,
France’s commerce, last year, was the
most prosperous in her history, being,
in export and import, over, $1,500,000,-
000, an increase of $280,000,000 over
the best year of the Emperor Napo
leon 111. Now that’s what we call a
truly great country—a grand nation in
deed.
Civil Rights.— Before the adjourn
ment of Congress, a negro, said to be
crazy, “ ran Amok ” , down Pennsylva
nia Avenue, brandishing a large club.
He said that .he “ represented the Al
mighty on behalf of“the colored man,
and was going to knock the brains out
of Congress.”
The general opinion is that Congress,
by its own act, spared him the trouble
of accomplishing his threat.
