SUNDAY MORNING. 00T. 30 1870
THE MAN ON HORSEBACK.
Long ago, we were in the habit of pre
dicting that the Man on Horseback, who
marched with stunning plaudits South
ward, wonll, some day or other, not very
remote, turn his steed’s head Northward.
It Is all coming true. New York city is
to be turned into a barrack for regular
troops on election day, and the ballot box
is to be “ protected” with the bayonets of
Ihe man who was hailed by War Demo
crats and Radicals as the “ saviour of the
life.” A satrap, f res# from his
liwngia campaign, is to command the arm
ed mercenaries, and a pettifogger turned
Crown Officer, a Georgian by adoption and
some time quartermaster on Gen. Toombs’
staff, is relied upon, for the civic im
positions of the central tyranny. |
Republican papers thus comment upon
the matter: •'*?■ *
[From the Tribune to-day. *
“ The President has ordered three or four
thousand troops to concentrate here pre
vious ay- * * * The
usual argument |n such instances
is that’the presence®? troops will provoke
a riot, and that they wlm ordered the troops
were those Frho designed bloodshed. It is
a very though it has
often prevaileddwith the shallow-minded,
and doubtless will in this case.
jj [From the Rtandardfßpp}
“ Washington, October .25'. —lu-conse-
quence of the disposition to obstruct the
peaceable enforcement ol' therecent election
law of Congress manifested in New York
the President has determined to concen
trate all the available force of the army
and marine corps to be placed at the dis
position of the Federal officers of the civil
service of fhalr place. This force will be
ample to secure the arrest of all the offend
ers and to enable the United States Mar
shal «8d District Attorney to obey positive
Instructions from the President to carry
out the provisions of this law at all haz
ards.
“The command of this force will probably
be given to Gen. Terry or Col. Mackenzie,
so as to avoid the necessity of diverting
Gen. McDowell from the duties of the
commander of the department*

may be made, and that everybody’s rights
may be secured, amLAfceJaw at the same

[ANOTHER DISPATCH.J
“ Washington, October 25.—Although
only one regiment of troops, the Eighth In
fantry, has, up to this time, been ordered
to New York, the President has arranged
to bring all the troops in Philadelphia,
New York, Boston aud Carlisle barracks
into New Yorfc in a very few hours, if he
sees any necessity for it. He has ordered
all the available troops in the forts east of
the Mississippi to rendezvous atNew York
prior to the election in the State. All the
available marines will also be sent there.
“ Attorney General Akerman will proba
bly go over to assist and advise the Dis
trict Attorney fflbd United States Marshal
during the last days of the registration.”
The opposition journals have something
to say, as follows. We quote a few of
them:
lFrom the Washington Telegram qf the Journal of
Commerce.
“ Washington, October 25. —The Presi
dent lias ordered that all the available sol
diers and.marines east of the Mississippi
be sent to New York to sustain the Fed
eral authorities in the enforcement of the
Congressional Election act.”
[Comments of Iho Journal of Commerce.
“What the bad advisers who have per
suaded the Chief Magistrate to this course
can have in view, unless it be to prune
down to more healthy proportions the over
grown Republican majority in Congress, it
is difficult to conceive. A community less
law-abiding titan ours might be provoked
to riot by the insulting menace; but if that
be the alin of the President’s advisers, we
are confident that it will utterly fail here.”
If there were any real danger of such an
event, the editor says, t|ie insignificant
force which could be scraped together
from the Federal garrisons would avail
little against an ear uprising,
but he remarks:
“ The only result which seems to us like
ly to come of this grand concentration of
forces is a thorough disgust |with the poli
ticians who ha vs directed it, and their
peaceful but utter overthrow at the polls."
[From the Star.
“The presence of ilie Eighth or any other
United States regiment in the city of New
York is a certainty of 5,000 additional
votes for Hoffman. We are not yet at the
depth of degradation to which Grant has
pushed some of our Southern Sta'es, and
New York is not quile prepared to have
United States troops sent here to interfere
with her local elections.”
r From the New York Express.
“These troops are sent here from the
South, among them the Bth U. S. Regiment
from South Carolina—which has just been
used to elect negroes to Congress, and to
re-elect the State .government there, alter
the manuer in Tennessee and North Caro
lina, and the same reigment js now threat
ening the white people of the North 1
“ And now a word or two to Gen. Grant
& Cos. Three or four thousand are not
enough to scare our population. Thiity or
forty thousand at least are indispeusable to
frighten. We have uniformed regiments
enough hereto take of three or four
thousand, if a fight is jhteuded. and, if ne
cessary, 100,000 militia men can be poured
into New York, who will obey the orders
of the State. #
“ Whatn are these
United States troops put to I and we know
that the whole soul and spirit of West
Pointers revolts from doing this dirty
work. These United States troops have
been traveling in four negro States to en
force negro supremacy, there at the ballot
box, and now they are sent here to affright
white Democrats, and to dragoon them
into obedience. We do not wonder that
white men are unwilling to enlist to do
this dirty work in the army, and that the
army is therefore with difficulty kept up,
but we do wonder that any United States
West Pointer stays in such an army, when
many better fields are afforded him in the
Engineering and Manufacturing Depart
ments of our country.
“ Will Gen. Grant never learn a bit of po
litical wisdom ? Doesn’t he see how utterly
vain were all his troops in Virginia, North
Carolina and Tennessee, and how uselessly
interfering in Missouri against Carl Schurz
and the Germans, in behalf there of the ne
gro vote ? Doesn’t he see that the ouce
formidable Ledwith-Mayor movement is
now becoming reduced to nothing by the
driving of our .white German and Irish
population into one ballot box to vindicate
their rights as naturalized citizens to vote,
and to demonstrate their contempt of this
movement of United States troops, one
half of whom are Irishmen or Germans,
and will not, therefore, fire ou their coun-\
trymen, while nearly the other half are ex
rebels, enlisted from the Southern Confede
rate armies?
“ President Lincoln, tinder bad advice,
sent here, during the war, Gen. B. F. Bnt
ler, and practically superseded Gen. Dix,
who would not do the vile work—and
thereby the Democratic vote was all called
out, and the majority largely increased.
In lieu of this display of troops, the hard
fisted, \r»e 1 *
never worked better
could be ddne for them thau this .salata
ry excitement aroused by this military
threat.”. H
It is a pretty quarrel as it stands. We
shall soon know the result.
Quit® an Obstruction.— There is one
great obstacle suggested concerning the'
establishment of a Westminster Abbey In
the Old Dominion, viz: every Virginian
would think himself entitled to be
there I * • ■■W
Few men in America i|kve dei
fied than Wendell Phillips. It Is fair to
say that few men had :S © iHjgghpower to com
pel such hero-worship as was thus lavishly
bestowed. He waft, bF common consent,
allowed to be the -Party."
He gave them ideas, advanced the standard
far In the front, planted it there, and waited
for the jackal multitude to come panting
,up to his position. Then be would ad
vance it again with si mi is r results. It Ms
happened recently, however, that Wendell
Phillips is not disposes! to endorse the
party in every particular, but prefers to
“ tote his own skillet” for a season. This
is rank offense, and; as a matter of course,
the jackals arc yelling from a place of
safety at that audacious hyena—we wi.ll
not say lion. He is, at this late day, found
to be no prophet at all, no thinker at all
nothing bnt a gaudy gabbler and a jug
gler Os gilded words. Instead of crying
forth like a prophet, we are now told that
he brays like an ass or raves like a lunatic.
He is even likened unto one Andrew
Johnson, a comparison which must cut
Phillips on the rawest nerve. He, is
railed at as an original secessionist, as a
reviler of the Constitutional compact, a
justifler of the Southern revolt, etc., etc.
The Boston Journal thus sums him up:
‘Mlfe utterly reject Mr. Phillips’ egotisti
cal pretensions to political prophecy and
leadership. His speeches, frqiu- ’time to
time, hare delight#-his favdMes,' bnt they
have never affected practical action, and
they have had no effect on the general cur
rent of national thought. For instance, he
has practiced .and advocated the non-voting
policy; and if he votes this year will pre
sent the spectacle of withholding his vote
for a quarter of a century until he lias be
come himself a candidate i'er office.”
It is all very well for the Rascal papers
to abuse Mr. Phillips now that he is run
ning an Independent schedule and lias en
dorsed the great Mogul Grant. But he
undoubtedly led the Republican party by
the nose for many years, and has done more
to debauch the youth of the North and de
stroy popular liberty than a wilderness of
Sumners. Presently the moderate men of
the East and West will discover that they
have followed other false gods beside
Wendell Phillips.
THE COLORED CADET.
The “ speckled Mongolian ” at West
Point, Smith by name, is in a peck of
trouble. His Radical friends are weary of
him, and the Chicago Tribune speaks for
the whole gang as follows :
“ Those familiar with the unwritten code
of West Poiflt and cognizant of the solem
nity attached by it to the veracity of a
cadet in matters of the smallest as weti as
the greatesKmoment, will understand lliaf.
Cadet Smith, having twice, to the satisfac
tion of his fellow-cadets, and once in the
opinion of an impartial court, been guilty
of falsehood, and being now formally ar
raigned on a charge of similar import by
General Upton himself, lias, according to
the inflexible rule of personal honor ob
served by the cadets, forfeited all light, to
any personal consideration and companion
ship in his class, and among the corps at
large, however closely Ids official business
may be respected.”
The negro cadet business began in fraud
and hypocrisy an 1 now ends in absurdity.
Smith is not a representative black boy,
aud so it was an imposition to thrust him
forward as such. But Smith has only lied
occasionally and must be punished. The
beauty of it is that lie must be made a
scapegoat of politicians who survive on
lying and theft in a trooly loil way. Make
way, then, for the colored Captain Jinks
and “ kick him out of the array!”
Jess So, Jkdge!— A bit of political scan
dal concerning the English Mission is thus
detailed by the Washington correspondent
of the Baltimore Gazette :
“ There is a very singular charge brought
against Minister Motley. It is said he re
fused to appoint a half-witted son-in-law
(uot ids son—that is a mistake) of Secreta
ry Fish as his Secretary of Legation, at
the express request of the President. Upon
this, a bullet-headed editor of one of the
onrans remarks:
“‘ In olden times, a Minister would have
thought himself forever disgraced were he
to hold office one lDstaut longer than lie
believed himself agreeable to his Presi
dent.’
“Just so. But does the fobl not know
that both Grant and Stanton did this iden
tical ‘ disgraceful ’ thing—aud does he not
know that the' ‘tenure of office act’ is still
vital?”
Personal. —We are glad to welcome to
the city Geu. D. M. Dußose, who has been
chosen the standard-bearer of Democracy
for the Fifth District of Georgi#. Gen.
Dußosk is in the finest health and spirits,
and, judging from the thoroughness and
chivalry of Ills nature, armed at all points
for the coming campaign.
Gen. Terry. —lt is said that Gen Ter
ry's success in reconstructing Georgia
cau ed the President to select him to dra
goon New York. The War Democracy
are squealing already.
The South.— Don Piatt writes to the
Cincinnati Commercial:
The wonderful energy exhibited by the
Southern people in struggling up from the
utter ruin that followed the late civil war
is one of the marvels of the day. While
contending against the blundering, unjust
acts of reconstruction, origiuatiug in hate,
and continued through greed, that deprived
them of a voice and vote in laws now in
volving the business interests of the entire
country, the people have struggled man
fully and with success to a certain extent
to restore the national prosperity of their
region. In this no aid whatever has been
given by the General Government. On the
contrary, its acts have been aggressive to
the last extent, and it is no exaggeration
to say that the Government at Washing
ton has wrought more injury to the South
since the war than it was able to effect
during the conflict of arms. “It is the
strangest folly that ever affected a blind
people.”

ence'whatever having been made to them
in the preliminaries. I have the following
points of the proposition from the best au
thority’: £F?
Statu quo ante is to goverft all arrange
ments looking to the possible resumption
of the army. Both parties hold undisturb
ed their present positions; Paris to receive
day by day, one day’s supply of provis
ions; all latitude to be given throughout
the country to hold elections.”
It is now stated Austria has received, the
active support of England, who is warm
ly backed by Italy. The foreign office
lias intelligence that the authorities at
Versailles accede to the demand, couched
in diplomatic, but decided language from

armistice.

Official information has been received
here to the effect that Bismark is loth to
entertain armistice propositions from Eng
land. They should come from France,
England has received no satisfactory re

may come to Versailles and may possibly be
allowed to go to Paris.
New York, October |29.—The Kalians
celebrated the unification of Italy, and lib
eration of Rome from the Pope’s sway, by
a grand concert, public meeting aud ball.

tor Emmanuel and eulogized Garibaldi and

mand in the army of the East because of

Bt?-WHILE EMOTIONS PERISH, THOUGHT
blended in diction is immortal, such will be the list of
those cured by the use of the OLD CAROLINA
BITIERS.
The OLD CAROLINA BIT! Etta have been
thoroughly tested, and found invaluable as an Appe
t z.r and Tonic—none better to be had.
OCtSO-SUWfAC
A CHAPTER OP PACTS,
SPACE IS VALUABLE IN A NEWSPAPER,
and it is therefore proposed in this advertisement to
condense a variety of facts, important to the public,
into a small compass. Those facta refer to Hostet
ler's Stomach Bitters—what that celebrated medicine
is, and what it will do. In the first place, then, tho
article is a stimulant, tonic and alterative, consisting
of a combination of an absolutely pure spirituous
agent, with the most valuable medicinal vegetable
substances Ibat Botanic research has placed at the
disposal of the chemist and of the ph> sician. These
ingredients are compounded with great care, and in
such proportions as to produce a preparation which
invigorates without exciting the general system, and
tones, regulates and contro's the stomach, the bowels,
the liver and the minor secretive organs.
What this great restorative will do must be gather
ed from what it has done. The case of dyspepsia, or
any other form of indigestion, in which it has been
persistently administered without effecting a radical
cure, is yet to he heard from, and the same may he
said of bilions disorders, intermittent fever, nervous
affections, general debility, constipation, sick hea4*
ache, mental despondency, and the peculiar com
plaints and disabilities to which the feeblo are so
subjects. It purifies all the fluids of tho body, tm
eluding the blood, and the gentle stimulus which it
imparls to the nervous system is not succeeded by
the slightest leaction. This is .a chapter of facts
which readers, tor their own sakes, should mark an j
