Hard to Please—Ex-Gov. Jenkins’ Let
ter Palls on Stony Ground.
The Washington Chronicle , a Repub
lican paper of great ability, has taken
ex-Gov. Jenkins’ letter as a text for
snarling at men of his high character
in the South, aud deducing from his
plea for peace and good will, founded
upon justice, a very bitter criticism. It
galls the Chronicle to be told, as Gov.
Jenkins told the editor of that paper
and the world at large, that “public
opinion is tending rapidly to the con
clusion that Reconstruction was a crime
against libei'ty, and even tho American
Talleyrands are, one alter another,
confessing that it was worse—a blun
der.”
Docs the Chronicle deny this state
ment? Not a bit of it. The fact was
too patent; but it does the next beat
thing—attempts to sneer and explain
away its force. The editor says:
According to this venerable foetal, Ke
coustructiou was not merely a crime, but a
blunder. And why ? The inference is clear.
It was a crime and a blunder not to per
mit those whose hands were yet red from
then attempt to destroy the Union, to re
sume their old places in their State organi
zation, and enact su. h legislation as would
place the newly-made colored citizens at
the mercy ot their late masters. The coun
try will not fail to remember that this was
one of the first objects sought to ho at
tained by such men as Jenkins; and that
the second state of the late slaves would
have been worse than their first, if these
gentlemen had not been thwarted by tho ac
tion of the Republican party, through its
representatives in Congress and the Na
tional Administration. The Reconstruc
tion measures, whether wise or not, became
a necessity, not merely to preserve the
fruits of the war, but to protect the rights
of those whom the nation had enfranchised,
and that necessity was brought about by
the misconduct of the late rebe s. The ex-
Governor, encouraged by the result of last
year's elections, faueies the North is becom
ing tired of the conflict, and is ready to ad
mit that Reconstruction was a crime and
blunder. This admitted, and followed up,
of course, by the repeal of the obnoxious
statutes, this venerable gentleman is In fa
vor of renewed good feeling between the
North and South. He is even willing to
“bear a prominent part in rectifying this
evil,” and turning it to good account.
The editor of the Chronicle seeni9 to
forget that the declared object* of the
war were for the restoration of the
XJuion aud the Constitution, and that
Gen. Grant himself, before Reconstruc
tion was dreamed of, recommended,
after his Southern tour, that these
“objects of the war” be faithfully car
ried out. Who prevented the accom
plishment of that project, which would,
if consummated, have saved the coun
try from so much ruin, commercial aud
moral, but Thad Stevens & Cos., who
'operated, according to the confession
of Stevens, outside the very instrument
for which the North went to battle? There
never was a time that Charles. J . Jen
kins and men of his class ever in
tended the perpetration of an injustice
to mortal man, be be black or white;
and in her very first Convention
after the war, Georgia, of her own act,
recognized the emancipation of slaves.
The only “necessity” existing for
negro franchise was the perpetuity of
the Radical party—the good of the
negro was never thought of. Eminent
Radicals confessed to us, at the time,
that they were, on principle, hostile to
wholesale negro suffrage, but they
winked at it, not because it was a
blessing to the freedmen, but because
it was a convenient and effectual offset
to the foreign vote of the North, which
largely went for the Democratic party.
It was, as they said, to “ cripple the
it -d Dutch and Irish'’ that these
abominable laws were passed. Irish
men aud Germans were good
enough food for powder, while
the war lasted ; but the religion
aud politics of a considerable number
of them have had no security from
attack and ridicule, when the South
lay in the dust—that South which,
when Know-Nothingism reared its ser
pent head, chiefly contributed to de
fend the naturalized European.
Ex-Gov. J enkins may be mistaken in
supposing that the North is getting
tired of the conflict and prepared to
acknowledge Reconstruction to be a
blunder and a crime ; but, if so, woe to
that section and woe to the whole land !
Does the editor of the Chronicle like
the results of the XlVth and XVth
Amendments? Has the country been
beueflted by them ? Since their pas
sage was there ever on the earth
such a carnival of crime? Is the
business of the United States in a sat
isfactory condition? Has Northern
wealth increased by reason of Southern
oppression? Have the negro voters
and their white allies made Republican
ism auythiug but monstrous and re
pulsive ? Has not robbery been licensed
in South Carolina and Louisiana ? Are
the States or the South, especially those
uuder Republican control, very grati
fying illustrations of the Radical idea?
It would not seem so, if facts are worth
anything, and, confronted by those
stubborn facts, the Washington Repub
lican has recently foamed at the mouth
and denounced one of its own party,
Mr. Nordhoff, who, God knows did not
tell any more than he could help. How
that journal, beaten by the truth, takes
refuge in assailing the Herald corres
pondent as a “Dutch-Jew,” we all know.
It appears, too, that the negroes,
themselves are not content altogether
with the men who engineered Recon
struction, however they may be be par
tially pleased with the thing itself, as
a leverage for greater license. The
portrait Douglass and Langston painted
of the false friends of the colored man
will endure, and those false friends are
the Havens, the Howards, the Par
kers, the Ameses, the Warmoths and a
host ot “Christian statesmen” and Pa
gan rogues, who have simply made the
blacks the dupes of Republican re
venge and the victims of Republican
spoliation.
Winding up Ms attack upon Gov.
J ehkins and men of hto stamp, the
Chronicle says : “These are the worst
enemies the South now and if they
are listened to and followed, <* Cen
tennial year will never witness that re
turn to fraternal feeling ch 1 ,
mass of the people so grev.y desire.
Of course, this sweeping denunciation
iucludes Hon. H. V. Johnson and Hon.
A. H. Stephens. If true men, so earn
est for fraternity founded upon justice,
are the “worst enemies of the South;”
and if the South be required to go
to the Centennial, not under au
arch of triumphant reconciliation, the
equal of the North, but to pass under
a yoke of subjugation with .a hang
man’s noose around her neck and
gyves upon her wrist, then Gen. Toombs,
Gen. Preston and Gen. Early are our
wisest advisers, and the only way
to avoid humiliation and shame is to
proudly stand aloof from a festival
which is not intended to commemorate
the birthday of freedom, but the con
quest of a section and the consecration
of a revolting infamy.
We are inclined to the bolief that the
Washington Chronicle merely repre
sents a sullen and discomfited minority
of the voters of the United States. If
so, its ipse-ilixit does not umount to a
great deal. If the coming elections
demonstrate that it, on the contrary,
speaks for the majority of the North
ern masses, the Philadelphia Centennial
will have no charms for our people;
and though Gurney may take his tur
key buzzards for exhibition, he will not
have a captive and humiliated South
to follow him. If the Washington
Chronicle is the true exponeut of au
overwhelming Northern sentiment, the
charitable hopes of ex-Gov. Johnson
are vain, the patriotic aspirations of
ex-Gov. Jenkins are futile, and Mr.
Stephens’ Fourth-of-July speech is not
worth the paper upon which it was
printed.
Chamberlain.—A writer in the Ander
son (S. C.) Intelligencer concludes a
long review of the political situation
thus: “We look in vain, at the present
time, for any reasons to confide in Mr.
Chamberlain, for all past experience of
tho motives which influence human
conduct teaches us that he neither can
nor will do anything for the Conserva
tives, except by the consent of the
crowd which elected him; and thus we
are brought at last to the very condi
tion we were in before his election, viz:
a complete aud hopeless subjection to
the crowd led on by the ring at Colum
bia. It does not help the matter, that
the fur on the cat’s claws makes the
manipulations we are undergoing a lit
tle softer, if, after all, we have to be
come food for the cat, whenever his
appetite demands such gratification.”
v * . ...
Preston and Early.— The Petersburg
News, speaking of Gen. Preston’s ad
dress, says “it will only live through
the next Presidential election as a cam
paign document for the Radicals, how
ever long his name may endure.” The
same paper, commeuting upon Gen.
Early’s jeremiad over the University
of Virginia as the “only one of Jeffer
son’s works that remains to us unim
paired,” tartly observes that Gen.
Early cannot be claimed as a very good
oracle of Jefferson, since he never was
a Jeffersonian man in any one of his
principles, doctrines or utterances, and
it is too late now to claim for him such
a distinction.
Moses.— Since the failure of Andrew
Johnson to become the negro’s “Moses,”
white men are at a discount for that
position. Fred Douglass, a quadroon,
and Prof. Langston, an octoroon, are
candidates for the vacant office, but
only a pure-blooded Ethiopian should
be selected. How would Elliott do,
or Judge Wright ? It is true the for
mer may not suit; aud if it be true
that the Supreme Court of South Caro
lina is not above receiving ‘ testimo
nials,” the latter should be ruled out.
We dare say Forrest aud Pillow, hav
ing captured the colored ladies, will
personate Moses and Aaron iu burnt
cork fashion.
Buying a Bride.— Two Minnesota
swains, falling iu love with the same
lady, agreed, after much quarreling to
settle the matter by a money bid. One
fellow stopped at #IOO. The other chap
laised him §6O better and took the
damsel.* The winning man gave his
note for §l6O, with the bride’s father as
indorser, and the marriage took place
without auy unnecessary delay. Aud
uow, it is said, the parties propose to
resist the payment of the note, on the
ground of “no value received.”
Negro Independence. —lf the pro
tectorate established over Sierra Leone
and Liberia were removed, the negro
settlements there would very soon be
come Pagan and barbaric. If the white
protectorate of the Southern freedmen
could be withdrawn, the blacks would
sink out of sight before rnauy years.
Reconstruction is thinning the colored
ranks very rapidly, as it is. “ Inde
pendence” would only hasten the inevi
table collapse.
The Parker Trial. —The Greenville
News dwells upon the fact that the
Columbia Boss Tweed is represented
by the best Democratic* lawyers in the
State and prosecuted by au Attorney
General who belongs to the Republican
party. It is said that the head centre
of corruption in Louisiana, Norton, de
fied the people, because, with his plun
dered wealth he had retained the strong
est legal talent at the bar of the South
west.
Couldn’t New York do a Tittle something
for Toulouse ?—N. Y. Commercial.
Aren’t the times too tight V— Boston Globe.
Yes, and they’ve been so Toulon. —Chicago
2 ribune.
The French have suffered because it
was Touvet.
Dead.— The N. O. Picayune records
the death, at Pass Christian, Miss., of
Mrs. Frances Parke Butler, nee Cus
tis, the grand-niece of General Wash
ington.
Scott and Garrett. —During the
railroad war between Scott and Gar
rett rates of freight and passage were
cut down to a fine point. Now that
peace has come between them, the
goose will hang high.
Monstrous. —According to the New
York World, the greatest and most-to
be-dreaded social demon is the “ friend
of the family.”
Bull’s Eyes. —The Dollymount “bull’s
eye” was three feet square. What
must the bull have been ?
New England Ideas—Oue Wortli Imi
tating.
The Chicago Tribune, in a rather
temperate article, considering the pro
vocation, finds fault with Geu. Pres
ton’s speech before the Alumni of the
University of Virginia. The South
Carolina orator dwelt with much as
perity and, after a wholesale fashion,
upon “New England ideas.” Admit
ting that Gen. Preston is incapable of
appreciating Puritan, so-called, theo
ries, attention is called to one “New
England idea,” which the South may
profitably imitate. The Tribune says :
“Iu New Eugland, every man works,
“ either as employer or employe. Every
“ man puts his haud to the anvil, the
“ loom, the forge, or the plow,
“or devotes his abilities to men
“ tal and intellectual labors, think
“ ing, planning, designing, caleu
“ lating aud directing. It is a great
“ bee hive of industry and activity in
“ which there are few drones. Now. is
“ this an idea which the South needs
“ more than any other ? One cause —
“ and perhaps the most prominent
“cause—of the disorder and unpros
“ perous condition of the South lies in
“ the fact that the labor of the South is
“ performed by one-half of the popula
•“ tiou, and that the other half lives
“ upon those who labor. Therefore
“ there is no surplus of production for
“ profit. The idle man eats up the sur
“plus produced by the laboring man.
“ All this might be remedied if the
“South accepted the New England idea
“ that every man should work and
“ produce a surplus with his own
“ hands.”
This is not entirely correct; but
there is a deal of truth in it.
An American Belle. —The handsom
est woman now in Great Britain is said
to be Miss Paran Stevens. Rumor
hath it that she will beeome the
Duchess of Montrose.
The Latest. —Weary of the names
“cyclone,” “tornado,” “hurricane,” etc.,
Professor Tice calls it a “Venusian
Perturbation.”
Cleopatra.— The question of Cleo
patra’s color and race has been de
cided. She was a pure-blooded Greek.

CARD-CLOTHING, Etc., Etc.
Kitson’s Patent Compound Opener Lapper.
THE cotton is spread on this machine from the bale, and is made into a very even
lap, at the iate of 300 to 400 pounds per hour. The laps are then llnislie4 on a
TWO-BEATER LAPPER,
WITH
KITSON’S PATFiAT EVENER.
Attached, and owing to recent improvements in this Evener, the laps when ready for
the card, only vary one-quarter of an ounce to the yard. The cost of picking by t his
system is only about one mill per pound on the cloth prodnced. and the picker house is
safer from fire than the card room.
4®*There is also a great saving of room and power over the old system.
These Machines may be seen at the mills of the Augusta Factory, Langlev Manufac
turing Company, and at the best mils at Lowell, Lawrence, Fall River, Manchester,
Lewiston, Providence, Richmond, Baltimore, etc., etc.
The following are a few among many testimonials which we have received:
AUGUSTA FACTORY, Augusta, Ga., July 5,1875.
The Kitson Machine Uompang, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen: We have been running your Compound Opener Lappers and Finisher
Lappers, with Eveners, for more than one year, and Irankiy say that they have given
the most eminent satisfaction. We have no hesitancy in giving you our unqualified en
dorsement, and cordially recommend your Machines.

OFFICE LANGLEY MANUFACTURING COMPANY, {
Langley, S. C., April 14, 1873 f
The Kitson Machine Cconpany, Lowell, Mass.:
Gentlemen : 1 have been running your system of Compound Opener Lappers and
Finisher L ippers. with Eveners, for more than two years pa->t at the < otton Mill of the
Langley Manufacturing Company, and have found it to work tho most satisfactory of
aiy opening and picking arrangement I have ever seen. We hwe no weighed a pound
of cotton upon the picker apron since starting, yet we have had a remarkable regularity
of numbers. The staple is not injured by over beating, and it leaves the picker without
being curled or knitted; the seeding and cleaning is very complete. Over forty per
cent, in labor in this department is saved over the old system. One of the greatest con
siderations with this arrangement, is its security against fire.
Yours, Ac., M. F. FO3TER, Superintendent.

work for ten years or more, and have always given us satisfaction, doing a large amount
of work, doing it well, at a low cost lor labor and repairs. In our ‘ Preseol t Mill,” where
we have two Compound Opener Lappers, and four Finisher Lappers, we have averaged
the past seven weeks 39,267 lbs. Cloth weekly. Yarn averaging about No. 22. Costone
14-100 mills (.00114) per lb. of cloth. Wo consider them a first class machine in all re
spects. Yours very truly,
