WEDNESDAY MORNING,NOV. 11,18G8
tFroin the 7 v'evllle Democrat.
t Damn, the Bebeln>
'lMiero Is nothing so mortifying:. so aggra
vatiu,r in the view of our present troubles,
fs the”notorious fact that the commonest
courtesy or kindness, such as is usual be
tween man and man, would alleviate and
correct all our national disasters and suf
fering.
The lack of this is the cause of every ea
-1 ami tv we endure. .There are errors in fi
nancial management, errors in legislation,
errors in judicial interpretation. W herev
er we look, whatever branch of govern
ment we investigate, there are confessed
errors, wrongs to be righted, inequalities
to adjust, injuries to correct. But at the
bottom of all these, and the cause of all
these, is the distrust by the section in power
of the section out of power.
Bad as the reconstruction plan is, if it
was administered in a leeling of confidence
and affection towards the people over
whom it is enforced, it would be endurable
and might found a happy government.—
Bad as the carpet-baggers’ title to power
is, if they were gentlemen and statesmen,
they might rule a willing people. Bad as
martial law and the Freed men’s Bureau
are, in violation of natural rights and char
tered liberties, if they exercise impartial
justice, tempered with a sympathetic rc
<rard for the w shes and prejudices of the
people, the country mightendure them and
prosper. Bad as corrupt laws and corrupt
indues are, it they sought to do justice and
to promote kindly sentiments aud mutual
respect among the people, the nation could
survive, rebellion and ruin. Bad as it is to
feel one’s self in the power of arbitrary ar
rest, with a denied habe<ts corpus and un
warrantable imprisonment, if it was done
with a show of regard for justice aud uat
ural sympathies, the people could trust and
Jive.
All errors, every error, the paper curren
cy, the unequal taxation, the bogus govern
ments, the bureau, all of them are tainted
in origin or operation with distrust, hatred,
and work evil, because they are aimed to
do evil. The whole machinery of govern
ment is administered in the interest of one
section against the other. Aspirants ask
office on "the ground of their hatred to a
section ; platforms are made that purpose
ly distinguish between the sections to the
disadvantage of the South. Colfax stood
before an intelligent audience and denoun
ced the Southern people as liars, traitors,
swindlers, villains and midnight assassins,-
without a blush. He avowed his intense
hatred of the South. He asked for votes
because he does hate the South. He urged
liis hearers to share in his hatred. He en
deavored to prove the South deserves to be
hated and abhorred. lie said, with a Phar
isaical blasphemy that invites and will
meet retribution, that lie feels, in laying his
head upon the pillow, that he has done no
man injury; that he is a good man; and
yet, with the most shocking and intense
virulence his lips and throat have boiled
over with a torrent of the most wicked and
atrocious venom of his heart. All this vo
cabulary of hatred he considers pure and
sinless. In this cursing and slandering
half of his own country and the people
thereof as “ murderous villains,” he claims
to have committed no sin against God and
man. It is religion to hate and crucify the
South, it is political wisdom to stir up the
malignant and revengeful passions of the
most powerful section against the weaker.
This policy is exemplified in Colfax, in
the nomination of Grant, in the whole
course and career of Radicalism. The
whole system and policy on which they (the
Radicals) propose to govern is the ha
tred OF THE STRONGER SECTION TO THE
WEAKER.
Analyze it, examine it, question the next
Radical you meet, read their platform, their
speeches, see if that is not the whole system,
the very key to that policy on which this
nation is to be governed for the next four
years. The platform is plain, direct. It
places the basis of government on hatred
to the South. Question your Radical
friend, the first expression and all of it is—
Damn the rebels. Their speeches, platform,
documents, fluauces, everything is that
short phraso— Damn the rebels.
This is the whole sum and substance of
the whole Radical platform. There is not
one spark of common humanity or common
sense, not an iota of Christian feeTng or
natural kindness, in them or their policy.
Brutal, cruel, hateful, they succeeded by
engineering into one solid body the whole
eri-UJecliln Coiistitujiotmlisi.
bitter, revengeful, passionate feeling of one
section against the other. The South is to
be hated and accursed, and ruled under a
system of hatred and intolerant cruelty.
The savage with his victim at the stake' is
an angel of mercy to such men and such a
policy. Their whole vocabulary of states
manship, political economy, knows but one
sentiment, the key to all conduct and all
policy —Damn the rcbe’s.
No Government so influenced and so ad
ministered ever can or ever should prosper.
The fiat of Him who said vengeance is mine
is against it. He cannot permit His laws
to be broken aud His justice violated ; His
divine mercy thwarted and His immaculate
justice spurned by aDy nation or ffuy peo
ple. We will never prosper while it lasts.
Though every acre teemed with vegetable
gold; though every rock -were gold and
every rivulet ran diamonds; though every
sea bore pearls and every breath fanned
prosperity, wc could not be a rich, happy
people, or a great nation. God’s curse is
on it. Man’s hatred to man is fixed forever
with the ineffaceable brand of Cain, and
neither man nor government can avoid the
curse.
On the other hand, let a sentiment of con
fidence and affection prevail; let the laws
be administered as if they meant protection,
and not vengeance; let humanity, mercy
and Christian love find place in our Gov
ernment aud in the hearts of the rulers, and
no legislation however impolitic, no Execu
tive action however rash, can impede or de
feat our certain progress to riches, honor,
prosperity and happiness. Men of humanity
and cultivation, actuated not by distrust
but by love for their fellow-creatures, could
administer even Radical measures, with all
its miserable crimes and follies, so as to win
the respect and promote the prosperity of
the Southern people and of the nation. But
the Radical party, with its policy of wrath,
misconstruction and hatred, can administer
no laws, good or bad, hut to the fatal in
jury of the nation and the people. Will
Gen. Grant obey them ?

‘‘ A Plea for Miscegenation."
THEODORE TII.TON AS AN ADVOCATE FOR
“ANGLO-AMERICAN WITH ANGLO-AFRICAN
BLOOD nis oriNION OF “ WHAT ANS
WER.”
[We take the liberty of printing in the
Revolution the following private letter to
one of its editors :]
New York, November I,IBGB.
My Dear Mrs. Stanton
I have just been reading in the Revolution
your notice of Anna Dickinson’s book. By
way of amiable protest, let me sav (though
not for publication) that you do her so
slender a jus ice as to amount to a positive
wrong.
A great moral reform elicits many books
and speeches—the best of vvhicli are seldom
faultless in artistic structure or literary
finish. “Uncle Torn** Cabin,” judged as a
mere work of art, seems as much out of
shape as a siuffed Christmas stocking in a
chimney-nook; nevertheless, among all the
fictions that have helped the world, that
unpremeditated and extemporaneous book
stands second only fp the “ Pilgrim’s Pro
gress.” Wendell Phillips' political speeches,
judged as in ere literary essays, abound in
almost as much bad grammar as his edito
rials ; nevertheleftf, among all the statesmen
of his country and time he is the conspicu
ous chief—the leader of leaders—the bright,
particular star of American polities.
There are many precious public utter
ances on which one never thinks of render
ing a verdict of mere literary
Does anybody ever 'stop to ask wheth'er* or"
not the Declaration of Independence is in
good English? Does anybody mourn over
the Magna Charta because It is in bad Lat
in? When the Atlantic Cable reports to
the Tribune what John Bright has been say
ing, does it take that trouble merely because
he s,a vs it well? Did not our whole nation
recognize that Abraham Lincoln's home
spun words at Gettysburg were greater
than Edward Eyerett’s gilded oration ?
Once when Father Taylor, in preaching to
his audience of seamen, found himself en
tangled suddenly in a thicket of accumu
lated clauses, he extricated himself by ex
claiming, “I have lost track of the nomina
tive to my verb, but my brethren, one thing
I know—7 am bound for the Kingdom of
Heaven!'' That was oratory superior to
rhetoric! It was getting the wine of elo
quence by crushing the grap.ee qf style.
Now, when a speech or sermon or book
happens to be so good that one cares no
thing for the style in which it is expressed, i
the substance is thereby proven to be of pe
culiar and extraordinary merit.
This is jqst my feeling about Miss Dick
inson’s story. On taking up the volume,
and before knowing or suspecting its drift,
I rebelled against the opening chapters be
cause I thought them awkward —as, indeed,
they are. But as soon as I discovered the
author’s object in object so un
expected, and so much nobler than any
mere literary effect—l immediately quench
ed my disposition to criticize. Her heroic
attempt to join the Anglo Saxon and An
glo-African blood in a true and lawful mar
riage, and to make fashionable society
stand by as a consent jpg and applauding
witness, was a purpose so mufll) mope peril
ous, humane and Christian than was ever
undertaken by any other American author,
that l said to myself (forgetting all literary
merits or defects). “ This is the bravest
book in American literature.” Tell me
what New England or Knickerbocker book
maker has ever more nobly and courageous
ly defied American opinion ? Not one.
And in this illustrious fact lies the chief
and precious value of this Quaker girl’s
book.
But the Revolution takes exceptions, not
so lmieli to Miss Dickinson’s style as to her
th'eme. I confess tfiat this criticism, com
ing from your pen, sut-prist'S me greatly’.
You intimate that she ought to have turn
ed her book on the pivot of Woman’s
Rights. But the story, as it stands, is a
signal contribution to Woman’s Rights. It
seeks to lift the most despised race among
our countrywomen to a just level with the
proudest. If its object had been merely to
give to Miss Eroildoune a ballot, its pages
would have borne a less emphatic testimo
ny to Woman’s Rights than by giving to
such a bride as Francesca such a bride
groom as Surrey. •
Then, too, as this is a white man's gov
ernment, I owe to this book a white man’s
thanks for vindicating a white man’s right
to marry whomsoever lie pleases, provided
the lady herself consents. It Is impossible
tor white men—particularly for such as
feel a mantling and Tammany pride in
their whiteness—to be ever considered a
truly superior race so long as they are de
nied the sacred right of protecting their
own private affections by the solemn sanc
tions of public law. More tyrranous than
the worst Radical Republican rule is the
public sentiment in the South, which for
bids au eminent white Democrat from
openly marrying the lady of his heart—
What a domestic boon this little book
seeks to confer on hundreds ind thousands
of “ nature’s noblemen ” who were former
ly the owners of married brides, and ivho
are now provided with a golden opportuni
ty to wed their own yvives.
But I can pardon the Revolution's neglect
to point out this one peculiar mission of
Miss Dickinson’s book, because, my dear
Mrs. Stanton, your sympathies with the
Democratic party are of so recent an ori
gin that you could hardly be expected to
appreciate, in a moment, all the obligations
of gratitude which that party ought to
feel, as white men, towards the only book
in our literature which directly points out
to them how to be at the same time vir
tuous and happy.
Os course you will accep " this carping
epistle in the best of humor, because it
comes from
Your friend and biographer,
Theodore Tilton.
[From the N, Y. Express.
The Pablic Debt Statement and the Money
Panic. •
The public debt statement shows some
important changes, and gives a clue to the
present stringency in money, which has
started the greatest panic ever known in
Wall street, and caused so much distress to
tlie business community. There was a
growing suspicion throughout October that
the Treasury was selling bonds, in addition
to the gold sales, especially at the close of
the month, when the stringency assumed a
very aggravated form from some unknown
cause, and the bear clique became even more
bold and desperate. It was openly assert
ed, from time to time, by the bear specu
lators, that the Treasury was selling bonds,
and the fact that new bonds of consecutive
numbers were afloat in large quantities,
was cited as a proof. Treasury officials
and Treasury brokers here stoutly denied
the assertion about as often as it was re
peated, and yet the statement shows an in
crease of $7,423,650 in Five-twenties. This
created considerable excitement on the
street when it was known, and a sharp de
cline in the public funds. In this connec
tion, however, it may be proper to remark,
that the sales are understood to have been
made through a Washington Bank, in con
nection with a prominent banking firm here,
which concern did not employ the usual
outside brokers in the matter. This may
account for the apparent ignorance of par
ties here, who ought to be posted in regard
to the movements of the Treasury. The
three per cent, certificates have decreased
$6,905,000, but up to the present time the
amount taken in is over $15,000,000, which
is just so much contraction of the currency.
These sales of bonds, and the cancellation
of three per cent, certificates, are the con
necting links in the secret history of the
great money stringency, and plainly show
that the bears, by a combination of cir
cumstances, have met with grand success,
such as they could not have achieved had
it not been for the necessities of the lrea
sury Department.
It would have been better for the Treas
ury to have announced these sales of bonds
at an earlier moment, as this would have
robbed the bears of a great deal of ammu
nition. The causes of the money pressure
are now before the public, and may be
sun] mp 4 i)P )h the cruel hallucination and
deception of the Republican party in edu
cating Wall street and the public generally,
that Gen. Grant’s election was to restore
easy money and high prices—the Treasury
saies of gold and bonds, the contraction of
the currency to the extent of $15,000,000 by
the cancellation of three per cent, certifi
cates, the contraction of bank loans, the
expanded condition of the stock market, the
locking up of greenbacks, and last, but not
least, the drain of greenbacks to the West
to pack the flog crop and move grain to the
seaboard, also to the South to move cotton
and tobacco. In this conitectioff tjji} great
est anxiety is felt in regard to the future,
which, of course, uo one can foresee; but if
the Treasury sales of gold and bonds are to
continue, and also the cancellation of certi
ficates, with no letting out of money on the
part of the bears, then the gravest fears may
well be entertained, and it behooves every
business ujai; to get his affairs in shape to
meet the panic, which is now extending its
lines and reaching beyond Wall street.
It is to be hoped, however, that the panic
may be prevented from spreading, and that
something may occur to relieve the money
market, but still it is idle to deny the fact
that the financial Ration is in the hands
of a few meq who, tq a certaip extent, con
trol the money market at this centre, and
consequently of the whole country.

$400,000,000, which would relieve the com
munity, and tend to restore confidence in

Government owed over $25,000,000 in coin

The Women of the South.— The fo'lowing
beautiful compliment to the daughters of Mis
sissippi is from a recent address delivered by
General Albert fikp in J}e Soto county, Missis
sippi :
“Mothers, wives, slstersi daughters of the
men of Mississippi, I cannot speak to you.
No angel has touched ray lips with the burning
coals from the altar of the sacrifices. I leave
to others the fine phrases and the empty com
pliments that you would not value. What you
have done in the past is sufficient guarantee of
your heroism and demotion in the future. You
have more than rivalled, you haye excelled, the
women of Siragog.sn and Verona, and the
Hebrew matrons and maidens who helped tq
defend the Holy City of Jerusalem against the
legions of Vespasian. You will also do your
duty iu the days, dark or bright, that are to
come. You will teaph those wfio love your
fidelity to principle amid ajl temptations, to
prefer honor to prosperity, and the dangerous
truth to the safe and profitable falsehood ; con
stancy and courage, and the manly aud hopeful
endurance that befits a man. You are tbe con
querors who take all men captive, and whose
silken fetters, stronger than tempered steel, we
are glad and proud to wear. Into our souls
your eyes 6hine like stars, aud wc bow down
and worship, and in love find new strength to
undertake great enterprises or endure great
calamities. O! flowers brought tp tis by the
angels from the Garden of Paradise, ypu bloorp
here to bless, to encourage, aqd to console.
Wc are all your willing slaves. Age gives no
exemption from that service; for, in the sad
and sober Autumn of our days, we still covet
the living smile and the loving look that can
be ours no more. The sober Autumn of out
days ! For you, the bright and glad anticipa
tions of the future, the dreams that make
youth’s happiness j for us the memories of tbe
past, of joys and sorrows intermingled, of the
hopes and loves, and bitter disappointments
and cruel losses, of the days that are no more.
Our country, also, our own dear Southland
that yon love so well, has its memories of thff
past, of a glad, bright dawn and a morning full
of promise, that darkened into a day full of
gloom, and terror, and disaster. Out of that
darkness the faces of our dead look sadly, and
pityingly, and lovingly upon us. They have
not died in vain. The land they died lor 6hall
yet reap the fruit of the great sacrifice. Our
country, also, has its hopes, that are not delu
sive, for the future. To it, the sober Autumn
days have not come—nor even those of life’s
Summer. For it, the rosy days of Spring have
not departed, though the immortelles planted
by angels bloom on many graves.”
A poor needle woman in London lived as

to many sufferings.
Freedom from these contribute in no sma'l degree
to their happiness and welfare, for none can he hap

rious female complaints can long be Buffered to run
on without involving the general health of the in

and premature decline. Nor is it pleasant to consult
a physician for the leliefof theee various delicate af

will a true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm
is 10 do this. Thu set will then thank us for placing

At last, an early marriage caps the climax of misery,
and the unfortunate oDe, hitherto so utleily regard
less oi the plain dictates and remonstrances of her
delicate nature, becomes an unwilling subject of
medical treatment. This is but a truthful piettny
of the experience of thousands of our young women.
Long before tlie abl.ity to exercise the functions of
the generative organs, they require an education of
their peculiar nervous st stem, composed of what is
culled the tissue, which is, in common with the fe
male breast and lips, evidently under the control of
mental emotions and associations at an early period
of life ; and, as we shall subsequently see, these emo
tipns, when oxces-ive, lead, long before puberty, to
habits which sap the very life of their victims evv na
ture has self-completed their development.
