    SATURDAY, AfRIL 21, 1868.
The JVccowflty of Ofllclnl Dignity.
Th great cause of the birth of parties in
our land wa found not so much In principles
68 In the practices of the day. No sooner had
the adoption of tha Constitution given birth
to a new form of nationality than the Repub
lican and Federal factions arose to quarrel
oyer the dx-ees rather than the doctrlnps
which should subsist under the new regime.
Those familiar with the early history of the
struggle will easily call to mind the acrimony
with which each party abused its opponent.
The Federalists were "royalists," "aristocra
tic," and dclred a monarch. The Repub
licans were " Jacobins," "subverters of order,"
and Imitators of the red revolutionists of
France. And although we may smile at the
hard names applied, and consider the issue
one of the dead dogmas of the past, yet to
this day we feel the influences of that bitter
contest.
The qulot dignity of the first President was
augmented by the formality with which he was
surrounded, and it took many years for the
anarchical doctrine of perfect equality to do
away with the ceremonies which hedged the
Executive about. The receptions of the
earlier heads of our nation were stately and
dignified. True, they had not the ultra for
mality of the court levees, and no ridicu
lous habit of requiring certain dresses ' was
demanded, as 1s done even to the present
day at the receptions of the fepeaker of the
British House of Commons ; yet there was
something that involuntarily told the visitor
that he was in the presence of the representa
tives of a great people, and not mere indi
viduals . 1 he bearing of the hosts, their
manners when addressed, and their behavior
to strangers when presented, struck all for
eigners at a combination of etiquette and
democracy, a union of the dignity of a high
official with the courteous urbanity of a
private gentleman.
We think that General Jackson, with all
the good he did the nation, was the first Exe
cutive who originated a nuisance by tolera
ting a familiarity which, however agreeable
to the popular sentiment, has been subversive
of official dignity, and to a great degree de
structive of that respect , in which the Pre
sident had always heretofore been held. He
allowed the entrance into the White House of
backwoodsmen In dress which, however pic
turesque, was certainly unsuitable to an Exe
cutive levee.. A cqronlcler of the recep
tion at the inauguration of General Jackson
tells us that the men stood on the damask
chairs with their muddy boots, got into a fight
with the waiters to secure a couple of bowls
of punch, took all the Ice-cream from the
ladies, and were' only persuaded to retire by
the supply of creature comforts being removed
to the open air. It is to be regretted that this
disgraceful familiarity should not have ter
minated with the days of "Old Hickory." Any
one, however, who has attended a reception
during the last four years, 'will remember the
singular vulgarity displayed by many of those
who sought the Presidential house. The ex
cellent order issued by Mrs. Lincoln, that
no lady with bonnet or shawl should be ad
mitted, reflects upon the bad taste which
rendered such a restriction necessary. The
proper enlargement of the order, so as to
require full dress costume, would receive the
approval of the greater portion of American
, society. ; !
We have been led to ' these remarks, not
only because of the propriety of having our
respect for the office, If not for the office
holders, publicly shown, but also because of the
degenerating effact the absence of formality
in the Executive's receptions is having upon
the other officers of the Government. All of
our readers will agree with us that the Sena
tors of America ought to wear a dignity and
reserve which , belong 1 to tho legislators
of a great people. All, joking, and fa
miliarity should be laid aside,1 and each , so
comport himself as- would befit a Roman
Senator. There is no necessity for arrogance,
yet a reserve would sit well on the shoulders
of every, member of the highest delibera
tive body , t In our land. In days
gone by,' such 'was the hauteur jof
these representatives of sovereign States;
that they were universally respected. But with
the absence of official dignity around the Ex
ecutive ha come degeneracy in the Semte.
The recent disgraceful, scene in which a mem
ber appeared hi a state of brutal druukenness,
and filled the hall of legislation with his ob
scene, yes, mlumout, stories, and yet has not
forfeited his membership, is an evidence of tue
deterioration of the Senatorial pride of office.
We can Imagine Randolph, Otis, Light-
toot Lkk, Mifflin, or the Adamses and
: Jays, sitting quietly by and witnessing such
an exhibition 1 Tboe who, cater to a false de
mocratic taste raay be in tavor of a member
of the highest body on the continent smiling
and fawnlug like a ward politician ; but We
frankly say that were state, dignity, formality,
and etiquette introduced, or rather recalled
to the Capitol would do much for tho renova
tion of national morals. 1
We would not be understood to favor re
turning in the least to the substance ol an
aristocracy, but we do1 believe that the
shadow would do no harm and much good.
We desire to see the J ustices of the U ulted
States Supreme Court in robes of office, and
we desire to see the President approached
with respect, with foraalitv j as though he was
1 Indeed the head of a ereut people, and not
simply Am due w Johnson, or any private
Individual And, above all, we wish to see
i dignity In the Senate. Let that body act as
becomes the place, and not as a County Con
THE DAILY 'EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY,
vention. In order to secure these desired
ends, we favor a more rigid social law In re
gard to attendance In Executive receptions
a greater hauteur In the conduct of the high
dignitaries of the land, and a greater ceremo
nial in meeting them. They may be our
servants, but the office they hold should secure
for them respect. In honoring them we do
but refloct greatness In the nation they govern.
Liberty and Knowledge.
There is one point upon which all testimony
from the South agrees, and that is, the uni
versal ' desire of the freedmen for 'education.
This desire pervades both old and young, and
wherever schools are opened they are straight
way filled with thirsty crowds, eager to drink
Irom the hitherto sealed fountains of know
ledge. There are officially reported to be
over ninety-six thousand pupil now in at
tendance upon the froodmen's schools. I
There Is something very interesting in this
stirring of Intellectual life In the minds ot
a whole people this instinctive uprising to
wards light and knowledge. It is an over
whelming evidence of the intellectual capa
city of the black race.' A people which, after
centuries of oppression and enforced Ignorance,
thus instantly responds to the first offers of
education, must possess great capabilities
of growth and discipline. Tndeed, the
truest test of a race is its capa
city for civilization, its susceptibility to
ntel'ectual improvement, and Its capability of
religious education . A race whl '.h you can
neither civilize, nor educate, nor Christianize,
may wll be pronounced inferior. The abo
rigines of this continent, as a race, with
many noted individual exceptions, were o
this character ; and they have rapidly fad 3d
away until they are now nearly extinct.
Brought into contact with civilization, they
learned from it little but its vices ; and
although millions of dollars were spent by
Government and by benevolent societies in
the endeavor to educate and Christianize
them, only the most meagre results were ever
obtained. But in the African we have a race
which readily takes on civilization, which
exhibits profound religious susceptibilities,
and which, within the very first year after it
is opened to the influences of education,
points to a hundred thousand pupils in
its schools I Truly, this is a result
most cheering to every Christian and
philanthropist. How would Christendom
have rejoiced if, in some remote corner of the
world, a people had been discovered by mis
sionaries who thus spontaneously opened
their hearts to receive the Word of Life, and
their minds to take in the lizat of knowledge 1
One hundred thousand pupils in school the
first yearl Such a report would have filled
the Church with joy. And is it any the less
a cause lor rejoicing, that such a work has
actually been done in our own land, and
almost at our own doors? In our opinion,
there has never . been, in all the history of
missionary enterprises, so grand a field , for
Christian effort, one so promising and fall of
good hope, a that afforded by the four mil
lions of freedmen of the Uniied States. j
And what an overwhelming reply does the
condition of these freedmen, industrious,
peaceful, law-abiding, but all alive with the
instinct of improvement and self-elevation,
afford to that iDsane and savage fanaticism
which still maintains that the negro would be
better off in slavery ! I
There is, too, in this movement for the edu
cation of the freedmen hope lor the entire
South. It must react upon all classes. The
millions of poor, Ignorant whites theie an
inert mass, which hitherto has been sinking
deeper and deeper into mental atrophy must
for very shame and envy's Bake arouse them
selves, when they behold the blacks with
school-books in their hands and newspapers
in their houses. Happy indeed will it be, if
the poor whites, who were the unconscious
victims of that gigantic scheme of oppression
of which they were at the same time the
most bigoted supporters, shall share in the
blessings resulting from Its overthrow, and
shall date their own real enfranchisement
and start in the upward course, from the self
same hour which gave liberty to the blacks.
The great truth of the brotherhood of man
will thus receive a new and illustrious de
monstration.
Under the Lash."
Tuk Augusta, (Georgia,) Constitutionalist
says that htate has repudiated the Rebel
dett, but "under the laah." This is the real spirit
in which the South "accepts" the situation.
Their actual feeling is, that the debt Incurred
in their gratuitous and wicked attempt ' to
overthrow the Government is a sacred thing
a sort of holy offering upon : the shrine, of
that independence they hoped to achieve.
Docs anybody s oppose that men entertaining
this feeling would be very scrupulous about
repudiating the national debt incurred in their
own subjugation ?
